Chapter 339: The Origin of "Armored Shadow" Lumian withdrew his thoughts from Roche Louise Sanson, the "necromancy", "April Fools' Day" and other matters, and started from the beginning as Franca requested: "In the disaster in Cordu Village, I was also contaminated by the Fateful Evil God. Fortunately, with the protection of Mr. Fool, I was able to maintain my sanity and not turn into a monster. "That pollution is both a curse and a blessing. I am now following the guidance of Ms. Magician, extracting it bit by bit in stages, turning it into my own power, and achieving a balance through the extraordinary characteristics of the corresponding sequence." Franka suddenly realized: "You mean the special contract is the power of the 'contractee'? No wonder you said I can't learn it." Since Lumian didn't know what power a Sequence 6 of the Fate Path had, she guessed that the other party was now a double Sequence 7 of "Arsonist" and "Bid". Lumian nodded: "So Guillaume Bene doesn't dare to replace or change my fate at will. The level of pollution in my body is quite high." "If Mr. Fool can provide protection, then he must be divine." Franka suddenly had an idea, "Do you think it's possible for me to get some gifts as well?" Do you want to try everything? Lumian said with a "tsk". "Do you plan to find the 'Great Mother' and repeat the process of pregnancy, childbirth and breastfeeding every day, or do you plan to believe in the 'Mother Tree of Desire' and drag all the wild dogs on the roadside to your bed?" “Hiss…” Franka took a breath and said, “I was just saying it casually. I would never do something as dangerous as believing in the evil god. To be like you, to come into contact with the power of the evil god and immediately receive the blessing of Mr. Fool, is something you can only encounter by chance.”
"This is not a simple contact." Lumian revealed a little more to dispel Franca's unrealistic thoughts, "The power of destiny is sealed in my body. In other words, I am praying for blessings from Mr. Fool and the pollution in my body, not from the existence in the name of destiny. Only in this way can I guarantee the most basic safety. Otherwise, I don't know when I will become another person or die suddenly." Franka breathed out instinctively: "You should talk about the 'Heng Ha Technique'." Lumian reorganized his words and said: "In order to avoid being indirectly affected by the being named Fate, I gave up the knowledge of strange creatures that came with my gift and asked Ms. Magician for a batch of information on creatures in the spiritual world. You know what happened next. "The 'Hum-Ha Technique' comes from a spirit creature I summoned. I originally wanted to summon the 'Screaming Shadow', but I don't know if it was because I prayed to Mr. Fool and asked him to witness it, or if the summoning spell I designed was not accurate enough, so a ghost that was completely different from the description of the 'Screaming Shadow' came..." Lumian explained in detail the corresponding summoning spell, design ideas, the specific appearance of the armored shadow, and other abilities, and even made a schematic diagram using his barely passing drawing skills. Fish scale armor... "Heng Ha Jutsu"... "Night Parade of Ten Thousand Demons"... "Soul-devouring Howl"... Franka stared at the picture on the coffee table, muttering to herself, her eyes losing focus. Lumian asked tentatively: "What's wrong with this?" If it were Aurore, would there be a similar reaction? Franca suddenly came back to her senses, and said with a serious and excited expression: "That 'Armored Shadow' is likely from our world!" "What world are you from?" Lumian didn't expect this answer. However, this seems reasonable. The armor shape and ability name of that shadow are very unique and different from the current world. Franka said "hmm": "There are many countries in our world, and each country has different cultures and languages. The 'Armored Shadow' is very similar to some images in the myths and legends of your sister and I's country." "You and Auror are from the same country?" This was what Lumian was most concerned about. He paused and said: "Did Mr. Fool's power, combined with my inaccurate spell, summon the Armored Shadow from your world, or did he, like you, travel through time and space a long time ago and become a shadow in the spirit world after his death?" Franka said with excitement and anticipation: "If it's the former, then it means that the two worlds can be connected. In that case, we may actually be able to go home! If it's the latter, why can he use the abilities of his original world? Is it something he has naturally, or did he learn it later?" Solving these mysteries will bring her closer to the truth of her time travel and help her find her way home! Having said this, Franka stood up and looked at Lumian with sparkling eyes. "Can you summon the 'Armored Shadow' so I can see him?"
“I have a contract with him, so I can summon him accurately without praying to Mr. Fool.” Seeing Franca’s excited face, as if she wanted to help set up the altar, Lumian changed the subject and said, “But I think he is very dangerous. It’s ok with Mr. Fool’s protection. If not, he might kill us directly. And if we are under Mr. Fool’s protection, we can’t communicate with him, let alone channel his spirit. We can only simply complete the summoning ceremony.” Franka frowned in disappointment: "so what should I do now?" Lumian thought for a moment and said: "When I have collected 10 Fergold of gold and fulfilled the contract. "That way, the power of the contract will provide protection, and we can see what the Armored Shadow wants so much gold for." Franka pondered for several seconds, then took a breath and said: "It's just the way it is for now." Her original plan was to quickly confirm the problem with the "Armored Shadow", get useful information from him, and then report the situation to the "Curly Baboon Research Association" so that everyone could work together to find a solution. Now, she could only postpone it for a while. After the two discussed the summoning spell for a while, they confirmed that the success rate of Franka's summoning was very low because it was not precise enough. What came might be the "Screaming Shadow", while Lumian could remove one of the descriptions and replace it with "Lumian Lee's contracted creature" to accurately point to the target. After a while, Janna came back with coffee, snacks and meat pies, allowing Lumian and Franca, who were already quite hungry after the battle, to have afternoon tea. Towards evening, Anthony Reid, dressed as a clerk, returned to Apartment 3, 601 White Coat Street. "How is it?" Lumian didn't hide his concern at all. Anthony took off his old hat and nodded slightly. "I tracked the lady down with her butler, footman, maid, and coachman to 20 Terrace Street in the Library District. "It seems to be another place where they live, a safe house of some kind." “Do you want to keep an eye on him?” Franca looked at Lumian. Lumian thought for a few seconds and said with a smile: "No, just check every once in a while to see if they've moved away." "Why?" Janna thought that Charles would be eager to deal with those people and get more information. Lumian smiled brightly: "Behind them is an organization called 'Sinners'. The contact person should have discovered Guillaume Bene's death and cut off contact, eliminating the clues and making it difficult to track them down. "But what will happen if the 'sinners' organization finds out that those people have indeed escaped tracking and are not being monitored? “Maybe we’ll reconnect! "Only true non-monitoring can allow that lady to convince the 'Sinners' organization that the matter has passed, become active again, and crawl out of their rat hole!" "Fuck..." Jane cursed almost silently. Charles is so insidious! Because Anthony brought substantial gains, he took two-thirds of the final Felkins, and Janna only got 5000. After rolling up the banknotes and putting them into different pockets on his body, Anthony Reid looked at Lumian and said: "What I hope more is to start investigating the secrets behind Hugues Artois and the truth behind the betrayal as soon as possible." This was the main reason why he agreed to participate in this operation. "Okay." Lumian had already discussed this matter with Janna and Franca. Janna will be responsible for finding the "Purifier" to inquire about the relevant information. Because of the "Armored Shadow" incident, Franka was in a state of high excitement and took the initiative to make a suggestion: "I know some friends in Loen. Let's see if I can get the records of that battle from the Loen military and see what they say." "That's a great idea." Anthony Reid's eyes lit up.
He had never before thought about getting the truth from his attackers. ………… On a chaotic night that could never be quiet, Lumian left the ritual fur to Franka for the divination spell and walked towards the "Golden Rooster Inn", intending to summon the messenger of Ms. "Magician" to mention Guillaume Bene, the "Sinner" organization and the "Armored Shadow", and ask the messenger to tell Ms. "Justice" and Ms. "Susie" that they could have the last psychological treatment. In the still cool night breeze, Lumian's thoughts slowly unraveled. After learning from Franka about the commonalities of the members of the "Curly-haired Baboon Research Society", the impression of his sister Auror became clearer in his mind. Of course, those vague points were things he didn't understand at first, but he felt that it didn't matter and there was no need to explore the reasons. "No wonder Aurore left her family and moved to the border village of Cordu. No wonder she resisted going to Trier. No wonder she always used strange words and liked to explain to me what they meant. No wonder her novels were different from the popular ones. No wonder she always said 'A philosopher from my hometown said' and often changed it to 'Emperor Roselle once said'..." Lumian sighed silently, and his mood inexplicably became calm, as if he was strolling in Cordu Village instead of a chaotic street. The place he could never go back to. At the same time, Lumian had his own understanding of some symbolic elements in the dream: "The land Aurore bought was once inhabited by a dead witch, symbolizing that she has taken over the body of Roche Louise Sanson? "Then Roche Louise Sanson, the wizard who died in the legend, represents the earliest believer in destiny?" Mr. Poet did not interpret the meaning of these two symbols due to the lack of key information before, but only told Lumian that they should have their own meanings. As his thoughts wandered, Lumian returned to Room 207 and saw a simply folded letter on the table. A letter? This doesn't look like it's from the "magician" lady... Lumian walked over with a look of surprise and suspicion, picked up the letter, and unfolded it. There were two lines of beautiful Intis written on it: “I’ve arrived in Trier. "Hela."
