Chapter 418 The bad guy complains first Memorial Hall District, 11 Quanshui Street. Gardner Martin was wearing a white shirt and black trousers, standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the study, his skin glowing slightly golden under the bright sunshine. He looked at Lumian and Christo standing in front of the desk, listening to them talking about the Trier Cave Society. Lumian took charge of the main part and roughly explained the origin of the "Earth Blood" ore sample: “When I lived in the Golden Cockerel Hotel, there was a madman there named Flamand. It was said that he went crazy after encountering the ghost of Montsouris and his whole family died mysteriously. "He would occasionally sober up, and we drank together a few times. Then one day, he hanged himself. His belongings were taken away by people from the police headquarters, saying they were to be given to his surviving relatives, but they were unwilling to accept them. In the end, they asked me to collect them. Among them was the specimen of the 'Earth Blood' ore. "I knew that lunatic after all, and we had drinks together, so I didn't throw away the mineral specimen. I just put it in the metal cabinet in the safe house..." Lumian spoke the truth, not a single word was false, but he concealed the fact that he helped Flamand get rid of the ghost of Montsouris and Thermipolos's reminder about the "Earth Blood" ore. Hearing this, Gardner Martin, who had brown eyes and a few silver hairs on his temples, asked as if to confirm: "Where is your safe house?"
Lumian answered truthfully: "No. 19 White Coat Street, the room on the far left on the third floor." This was not on the same side as Apartment No. 6 where the terrifying aura was coming from, and was some distance away, so Lumian answered frankly. Gardner Martin smiled: "No wonder you often go to White Coat Street. It's not just because of Janna." Boss, are you hinting that I shouldn't go to Franca's place too often? Are you also indicating that you know about this situation? Lumian muttered to himself and continued to talk about the rest of the story. He explained it the same way he had explained it to Joseph and Rayan of the Cave Society. Finally, Lumian asked deliberately: "Will this cause any trouble for our Sava Party? There might be some official power behind the Cave Association." He was hinting that Gardner Martin's disguised identity in front of Puif Soren might be exposed. He believed that with the boss's intelligence, it would not be difficult for him to understand. Gardner Martin nodded slightly, looked at "Mouse" Christo and said: "If you want to join the Cave Association, you can join, just don't interfere with your smuggling business." "Mouse" Christo nodded repeatedly: "Yes, boss." He then received instructions from Gardner Martin to leave the study early, leaving Lumian alone. Gardner Martin smiled and tried to comfort the official member of the Iron Cross: "Don't worry about Puifur's problems. Even if he finds out your true identity, he will just pretend he doesn't know. After you became the king in the King Cake game, he already had a lot of doubts about you. Next, he will definitely test and use you again and again." What he meant was that he would remain in the market area and continue to manage properties such as the Breeze Dance Hall, the Golden Rooster Inn and the Mill Dance Hall. "Okay, I was just worried that it would affect the most important mission." Lumian responded with a smile, looking relieved. At the same time, he sneered in his heart. He was keenly aware of the irrationality of Gardner Martin's arrangement: Replacing the Breeze Ballroom and other industries with another Beyonder and letting Lumian go into hiding is a very easy and simple thing for the Savoy Party boss and the "chief" of the "Iron Cross", and it will not do any harm. Even if he felt that he should not treat Lumian, a subordinate with an important mission, unfairly, he could make up for it by continuing to share the profits of industries such as the Breeze Ballroom, rather than letting the official members who had been targeted and suspected stay in their original positions at a certain risk.
Although Lumian's move into the dark would make him appear more suspicious and lead to the Savoy Party being targeted, Gardner Martin has encountered problems of this magnitude countless times and is sure to have a way to solve them. Lumian felt that the "leader" of the "Iron Cross" had some doubts about him, so he wanted to use the Cave Association to continue testing him. There was nothing in his description and explanation that could be falsified. Normally, it would be enough for Gardner Martin to believe it. But the problem was that too many things and too many unusual situations had happened around him during this period of time. As a former or current "conspirator", Gardner Martin would definitely instinctively and intuitively suspect that something was wrong. The reasons for the details are no longer sufficient to cover up the overall abnormality. Thinking of this, Lumian suddenly became murderous. He looked at Gardner Martin who was standing by the French window and judged that the two were about five meters apart. At such a close distance, if he suddenly used the "Hum-Ha Technique", and Gardner Martin had not yet reached Sequence 4, obtained divinity, and did not carry any magical items that could defend against similar abilities, then he would be able to quickly subdue the Sava leader and kill him. The current situation is like two ordinary people without extraordinary abilities standing within five meters of each other. One is of noble status and outstanding in combat, while the other is of lower status and not physically strong, but has a hidden revolver and good shooting ability. Within five meters, no matter how high the status of an ordinary person is, how strong his fighting skills are, or how many subordinates are around him, he will be knocked down by one shot! Considering the missions of the Tarot Club and the Aurora Club, Lumian controlled himself and asked: "Sir, I would like to purchase the Conspirator's potion formula from the guild." He had learned from the lessons he learned when he was promoted to "Arsonist". He didn't want to digest all the potions and then anxiously look for the formula of the next sequence, one material at a time. What he hoped was that while digesting the remaining "Arsonist" potions, he could collect the materials for "Conspirator" in advance, making progress on two fronts and saving time to the greatest extent possible. Gardner Martin asked in surprise: “Do you have that much cash? "The potion formula of the Conspirator can be sold for 70,000 to 80,000 Felgin at most occult gatherings, or even more. This is different from the Arsonists, who keep dying and getting promoted. Every Conspirator understands the importance of protecting themselves, and no longer acts on impulse again and again. They have begun to strictly control the leakage of potion formulas of the corresponding sequence." In Trier, the most common potion recipe is Sequence 9 to Sequence 7 of the "Hunter" path. Without waiting for Lumian to answer, Gardner Martin smiled and said: "If you can find out the secret of the decline of the Sauron family, even if it's not all of it, but just part of it, I will directly give you the 'Conspirator' potion as a reward. "If you are eager to improve yourself and don't want to wait that long, as a formal member of the Iron Cross, you are eligible to buy the Conspirator's potion formula at a preferential price of 6 Fel Gold." “No problem.” Lumian agreed without hesitation. “I’ll bring 6 Felkin tomorrow.” His original plan was to ask Mr. K and Ms. Magician if they had any if Gardner Martin didn't give it to him. "Do you really have 6 Felgin?" Gardner Martin laughed. Lumian suddenly had an idea and said deliberately: "It just so happens that I helped a tenant of the Golden Rooster Hotel to get back 10 yuan owed by him from the 'Differentiary' dance hall on Old Street in the Observatory District. I got more than half of it." 他总计拿到的是5万费尔金钞票和价值3万费尔金的黄金，，，加上原本的1000黄金、1000钞票和4000费尔金的剩余经费，。 "'Different' Dance Hall..." Gardner Martin repeated the name, his expression gradually becoming serious. "Did you really get the money back from 'Different' Dance Hall?" It was obvious that the "leader" of the "Iron Cross" knew something special about the "unique" dance hall. Lumian nodded calmly: "Yes." The Savoy Party members in the Breeze Ballroom more or less knew that he had helped Fitz to recover his debts, and he could not hide it from Gardner Martin, so he decided to speak out directly just now to confuse the situation surrounding him and mislead the Iron Cross in the direction of their suspicion. Moreover, it can also scare Gardner Martin! Gardner Martin looked at Lumian and quietly took a step towards the French window.
After a few seconds, he asked curiously: "You haven't heard about the problem with the 'different' dance hall?" “I heard about that.” Lumian laughed. At this moment, if he had a monocle, he might not be able to help but put it in his right eye socket, and then appreciate Gardner Martin's wonderful changes in expression and various subconscious reactions. After a pause, Lumian continued: "After I accepted the commission, I specifically investigated the dance hall and found that it was very complicated, with a background and very dangerous, so I decided to give up. As a result, when I was tracking an enemy passing by that day, I just blinked and saw that one of the guards at the door of the 'Different' dance hall had mysteriously disappeared, and behind the window upstairs, their boss Timmons looked like he had lost his soul. "I thought this was an opportunity, so I tried to go in and collect the debt. Who knew, I actually succeeded!" Lumian said as he stepped forward and asked sincerely: "Sir, is there any hidden danger here?" Gardner Martin took another step unnoticed and said with a smile: "It seems not at the moment. You should pay more attention to whether there are any abnormalities in yourself in the future." Lumian took the opportunity to raise his doubts: "'Sir', I feel something is not right. Why have so many things happened around me recently? Some of these things were done by me on my own initiative, while others were caused by me passively. Am I really the kind of person who will bring disaster, or is my fate recently to run around and deal with things, busy and exhausted?" Gardner Martin looked at him deeply and said meaningfully: "Perhaps, this is the fate that the 'Hunter' is bound to experience." After Lumian left, Gardner Martin turned his gaze to the side. There a secret door opened, and out came the hungry-looking "supervisor" Olson. "How is it?" Gardner Martin asked. Olsen raised his lips slightly and said: "He is not too convinced by your arrangement, which is normal. He is not particularly loyal yet, so he cannot become a member of your team for the time being." Gardner Martin thoughtfully changed the subject: "The disaster on him is more obvious than any of us. Does he fit better?" Olsen was silent for a few seconds and said: "Lets see." ………… When Lumian returned to the market area, Franca was sitting in the Red House Cafe in Xiayue Town. She looked across at Browns Soren, whose long orange-red hair fell like a waterfall, and said: “When will you finish the review?” Browns Soran did not answer directly. He looked at the black-haired and brown-eyed Franca and said thoughtfully: "We found someone who appears to be a member of the 'Supreme Bliss Society'." (End of this chapter)
