Chapter 299 Request (ask for monthly ticket at the beginning of the month) Gardner Martin had long been accustomed to Lumian's frankness and directness. He nodded slightly and said: "If you want it quickly, I have three items worth the same as the werewolf's teeth. "The first one is the 'Shadow Bracelet'. It is a magical item that can help you hide in a shadow that is larger than you. It allows you to summon 'Shadow Servants' with a few special abilities. It can activate shadows and allow them to bind targets to a certain extent. "It is an ominous object. Among those who have used it, more than one-third have gone crazy, and another one-third who did not wear it suddenly disappeared mysteriously and never appeared again. Many of the remaining people seem to be fine, but they often say that they suffer from tinnitus and auditory hallucinations. "In recent years, no one has dared to use this magical item unless it is a special case." Then why did you ask me if I wanted it? Do I look like a madman or a fool? Lumian expressed his doubts with his eyes. Gardner Martin smiled and explained briefly: "I am one of the few people who have used the 'Shadow Bracelet' without any problems. I have mastered the method to weaken its negative effects, but I can only tell you if you choose it." When did you have the illusion that there was nothing wrong with you? Lumian held his breath and didn't say what was in his heart.
In his opinion, Gardner Martin, who had suffered from the "anomaly" contamination at 13 Market Avenue, was not necessarily much better than those who had gone crazy or disappeared mysteriously. According to Ms. Magician's description of the pollution, the Gardner Martin standing here may not be the same person as the Gardner Martin before. Gardner Martin glanced at him and said with a smile: "In fact, you don't need to be so reserved in front of me. This makes you less like a 'hunter' who hasn't yet been promoted to Sequence 6. If you really say something that can 'provoke' me, I can only sarcastically respond. Look, isn't Albus alive and well?" “Yes, sir.” Lumian certainly couldn’t tell the other party that most of the words he had endured were secrets that the Iron Cross couldn’t know. Gardner Martin left the easy chair and continued: "The second item is a Extraordinary Attribute left behind by a 'Psychic'. You know what an Extraordinary Attribute is, right?" Lumian replied calmly: "Killing extraordinary creatures can yield one of the main ingredients for brewing potions. Killing extraordinary people will definitely yield corresponding things, just like the golden-red transparent sphere of Hammer At and this werewolf tooth. "I think this should be the extraordinary characteristics. They all correspond to a kind of potion. There is no need to collect additional main ingredients, right?" Gardner Martin nodded appreciatively: "Yes, your judgment is correct." He did not specifically talk about the "Law of Indestructibility of Beyonder Characteristics", as if he thought that would involve many secrets that Lumian could not know now. Gardner Martin put his hands behind his back and walked back and forth in front of the unlit fireplace. “‘Psychic’, from the name you can guess what kind of abilities the magical items it makes will have. Of course, what you can get specifically depends on the level of the ‘craftsman’. "If nothing goes wrong, it should be a combination of disguising as a zombie, enduring the erosion of decay, cold, death, etc., finding the weaknesses of the undead creatures through the 'Eye of Death', and directly communicating with the natural spirits and various undead creatures in the real world and using them to achieve various magical effects. If you are lucky enough, you can even have all of them. "Try not to carry this extraordinary characteristic with you. Otherwise, you will become the target of hatred of the surrounding natural spirits and undead creatures. You never know when you will be attacked by strange things." It sounds powerful, but it is a bit like "The Betrothed Person", both rely on other creatures to gain power... Lumian thought for a few seconds and said: "And the third one?" Gardner Martin walked back to his armchair: “That is also an extraordinary characteristic. If you carry it with you, you will find yourself becoming quite lucky, which is reflected in the details of various things. "Its corresponding sequence name is 'Lucky Man', but you have to remember that a lucky revelry is often a precursor to disaster. Also, it may make you see things and objects that you shouldn't see."
Sequence 7 of the "Monster" Path? Lumian remembered what was in Aurore's witchcraft notebook. The "Monster" Path is also called the "Destiny" Path. It is a path known for its high inspiration and is closely linked to destiny. Lumian chuckled and said: "'Lucky Guy' unfortunately ended up becoming an extraordinary characteristic? "This is such an ironic joke." Gardner Martin agrees: “Don’t underestimate bad luck, and don’t rely on luck, or you will become an extraordinary person.” “Very philosophical.” Lumian remembered this sentence full of experience and lessons. He carefully recalled Gardner Martin's introduction and found that he had not been stingy with the information on the corresponding sequence. His descriptions of the abilities of "psychics" and "lucky people" alone are enough to fetch a good price at many occult gatherings. Gardner Martin pointed at the black-green fangs on the ground again: "It is the 'Werewolf' extraordinary characteristic. After it becomes a magical item, it should be able to provide one or more of the following effects: strong self-healing ability, transformation into a werewolf, sacrificing sanity in exchange for a short burst of power, etc. “But you’ve also seen that ‘werewolf’ is always influenced by the desire for killing and bloodlust, and during a full moon or a blood moon, there is a risk of losing reason and being unable to control themselves. "Have you decided which item to choose? If you choose the extraordinary feature, I can help you contact a 'craftsman' and pay the production fee on your behalf. This is the reward you deserve for your contribution tonight." Is the "craftsman" you're looking for a saint? What would you do if you found out I was hiding the "Shadow Branch"? Lumian muttered, thinking seriously about which one to choose. He first ruled out the "Shadow Bracelet", the magical item that seemed to be from Mr. K's path. In a few days, Mr. K might offer a similar but better option in the rewards. Moreover, the negative impact of the "Shadow Bracelet" was too dangerous. Even if Gardner Martin claimed that he had a way to weaken it, Lumian did not dare to take the risk. The most important thing is that there is not much point in taking such an adventure. "'Psychic' can make up for my shortcomings, but it doesn't go well with 'Shadow Branch'. I can't create a magical item with the effect of 'Unending Love Between a Human and a Ghost'... Well, some of its features overlap with 'The Betrothed'... "Can 'Lucky Man' make 'Shadow Branch' always inspire the right desires? 'Werewolf's' sacrifice of sanity and the influence of bloodlust and killing are also quite compatible with 'Shadow Branch'. I wonder what kind of magical item it will create..." Lumian thought about it for several minutes before making a decision: "I want 'Lucky'." The most crucial reason why he gave up the "Werewolf" extraordinary characteristic was that it might bring the negative effect of losing sanity to the final magical item. If it were someone else, they could find ways to reduce the final impact, such as using it in situations where there are only enemies, or avoiding a full moon or a blood moon. But Lumian couldn't do that. If he lost his mind once, he might be used by Thermiporos and the seal would no longer be able to maintain its balance. In addition, he himself is also an extraordinary person in the field of destiny. When his sequence is higher in the future, he may be able to indirectly enhance the effect of that magical item through the "lucky man" trait. As for seeing things that he shouldn't see, Lumian, who already has "mystery glasses", doesn't mind having another similar thing. Gardner Martin was a little surprised. He originally thought that Lumian would choose between the "Psychic" extraordinary characteristic and the "Shadow Bracelet". He quickly returned to normal, did not ask any further questions, and said with a smile: “Human beings are obsessed with good luck.” The Savoy boss, the "chief" of the "Iron Cross", briefly left the living room and went up the stairs.
A few minutes later, he came back with a transparent glass jar that was originally used to hold candy in his hand. A mercury-colored eyeball lay quietly in the jar, slowly moving left and right and up and down as if it were still alive. "The way to carry it with you and store it normally is to place it in a small dark space." Gardner Martin said as he wrapped the glass jar with layers of black cloth. As he handed the item to Lumian, he gave his final instructions: "Change the jar every seven days." "Thank you, sir." Lumian put the glass jar containing the "Lucky" Beyonder characteristic into his trouser pocket. Gardner Martin was not surprised why he did not ask to contact the "craftsman", because the final effect of a magical item is a secret that should be known as little as possible to the holder, and it would be more conducive to keeping it confidential if he found an unknown "craftsman" himself. Just as these thoughts flashed through his mind, Lumian took the initiative to bring up the matter: "Sir, I want to exchange the free craftsman for other rewards." Gardner Martin asked curiously: "What reward do you want?" Lumian smiled. "Find me someone." "Who?" Gardner Martin had a vague guess. Lumian's expression gradually became solemn: "Guillaume Bennet. "You know I'm from Cordu, and I'm sure you've seen the wanted poster for the parish priest. "I have been tracking him, trying to catch this cultist who brought me disaster. I just received intelligence that he may appear in the Red Princess District next week. I would like to ask you, 'Sir', to help me find him." Gardner Martin laughed: "I originally thought you wanted to do it on your own, to endure the pain, to track down the enemy alone, to seek revenge in secret. "Yes, you know how to use the power of the organization earlier than I expected. This is also something that Hunters need to understand. "I agree to your request."
