'material...'
'Even gods are no exception...'
Li Andy couldn't help but be stunned, a message popped up in his mind, it was the 'material Faction' of the 'Original Mysteries Sect' that he had never seen before.
"Those guys pushed it again?!"
At this moment, Jasmine's personality in charge of peeking panicked:
【Waaah! That old aunt choked on a book! She's rolling on the ground! Should I save her?】
Li Andy frowned:
"Save her! Then use the life-saving grace to get information out of her!"
【Okay, I'll give her water now! Uh... How did she faint just by looking at me?】
【Oh oh! I almost forgot, I'm a wind-up doll on her desk now! I scared her!】
【Sisters, come and save her!!】
In an instant, Li Andy felt a cacophony in his ears, as if countless Jasmines had escaped from the isolation room, rushing to the scene.
"Hiss--!"
Li Andy quickly blocked the communication.
Even with his eyes closed, he could imagine how chaotic it was over there.
It was estimated that all the mechanical creations in the entire room had become Jasmine's vehicles, and the haunting level was comparable to his spiritual out of control.
However, with Youxi watching over there, it should be handled properly.
Li Andy withdrew his thoughts and turned his gaze back to the tent:
"Sophia, let's continue here too."
Since it was persuasion, it was naturally from the opponent's real pain point!
As soon as the two entered the tent, Anthony was startled and hurriedly hid the bottle behind him:
"You... you! Didn't I tell you to go out first?!"
"Mr. Anthony," Li Andy calmly sat down at the table, "You don't look well, do you need me to find a doctor for you?"
"No need!" Anthony frowned, "I know my own body!"
"Oh?"
Li Andy clasped his hands together on the table,
"Are you really clear?"
"Heh, rubb..."
Anthony was about to scold, but when he met Li Andy's gaze, his tone inexplicably got stuck.
Their gazes were clearly level, but it gave him a condescending sense of oppression.
Anthony swallowed a mouthful of saliva and gritted his teeth:
"I said, I don't need it!"
"Indeed, what you need is not a doctor, but a priest, a funeral priest."
Anthony was stunned, and opened his mouth:
"What are you talking about?"
Li Andy chuckled lightly:
"Didn't you say you know your body very well? Then you should know that if you keep drinking like this, you probably won't live to next year."
"What do you know!"
Anthony suddenly stood up,
"Do you think I really want to keep drinking?!"
"Hmm, indeed."
Li Andy calmly nodded, leaning back slightly,
"It's not that you want to drink, but it wants to drink."
Anthony was stunned.
The wine bottle he had hidden behind his back, at some point, had gone into the other party's hand!
"Give it back to me!"
Anthony waved his hand to snatch the bottle, but was restrained in place by his clothes.
"You! Is this your real purpose?!"
Li Andy did not answer, but just shook the wine bottle, such a casual action scared Anthony's heart almost out of his chest.
"No! Don't break it! If you break it, I'll die!"
"Oh? Really?"
Li Andy raised an eyebrow, the translation he got from the 'Translator's Earring' only cost him the memory of that knowledge.
Moreover, the current feedback from the shadow was that it disdained to eat this lump of stuff at all.
"This bottle can give people inspiration and knowledge, but it needs to be exchanged by drinking alcohol, am I right?" Li Andy said.
Upon hearing this, Anthony's face instantly turned pale, and he struggled to plead:
"Please, don't take it away! Can you take it after I die? The person who sold me this thing said that it will only become more perfect after I die!"
Li Andy frowned slightly, staring silently at Anthony until the other side was sweating profusely, then he chuckled lightly and slowly said,
"Mr. Anthony, actually you don't have to be so nervous, I'm not here to snatch your bottle. To be honest, the bottle's ability is quite useless to me. If I hadn't happened to encounter it, maybe I wouldn't have known you had something... very dangerous for ordinary people."
"Then you are...."
"I came on behalf of the Governing Madam."
Li Andy spoke frankly, throwing the wine bottle in his hand back to Sophia.
After Sophia received the bottle, she looked disgusted, only holding it far away with two fingers, swaying, as if it would fall to the ground the next second.
Anthony shivered in fright, no longer daring to ask proactively, feeling as if his life was hanging by a thread.
Li Andy continued:
"Originally, I wanted to acquire the theater troupe. Your troupe's funds should be almost at the bottom, right?"
Anthony stiffened for a moment, then nodded somewhat dejectedly.
This time the stage was much larger than before, and their troupe had almost bet everything on the performance in a few days. Including yesterday's ball, it actually also had the intention of attracting investment. Nine District, as a hub between the inland and the coast, had more wealthy merchants from various places than other places.
However, they didn't expect that the Imperial garrison would also come.
Would that group of roughnecks who only played with guns also come to listen to opera?
And what they didn't expect even more was that there was such a big conflict between the garrison and the local Governing Madam!
The moment they checked into the hotel, both sides almost simultaneously sent people to inquire about their stance indirectly.
"The troupe is not something I alone can decide."
Anthony replied, licking his dry lips, "And, I estimate Charles won't let anyone acquire his troupe."
Li Andy paused, then nodded lightly:
"It's okay, I'll try to persuade him later. Now... what interests me more is, where did you get your wine bottle from? Do the other people in the theater also have such mysterious objects?"
At this question, Anthony's face turned even paler with fright, and he lowered his head, not daring to look Li Andy directly in the eye. Without the support of alcohol, he was a coward:
"I... I don't know..."
Li Andy was silent for two seconds, then asked:
"This bottle of yours has quite a big side effect, haven't you thought about getting rid of it?"
Anthony was stunned, he looked up, his expression a little agitated:
"Yes, of course I want to! But I've tried, as soon as I leave, my memory becomes blurry!
I originally thought it would only take back my memories of that knowledge, but it's not like that at all! Maybe... it's because I've used that knowledge for so long that it has already integrated into all aspects of my life and cannot be separated at all!
Last time... if Charles and the others hadn't desperately looked for me, maybe I would have died somewhere unknown. Once I leave the tent, I will slowly forget myself and eventually become a fool who knows nothing!"
"What if I can save you?" Li Andy suddenly said.
Anthony was stunned, he couldn't believe it, but in his heart, he really hoped it was true.
Li Andy felt that the time was right, and gently snapped his fingers.
The pseudo-relic bottle trembled, then suddenly opened its mouth and cursed loudly:
"You damn it, can't you drink something better?! And when you drink, can't you pour it more smoothly?!"
Anthony was dumbfounded.
Sophia found this thing even more disgusting, she let out a disgusted "Ewww~" and let go, throwing the bottle to the ground. With the blessing of spirituality, the bottle would not shatter, it just rolled on the ground, cursing.
"If you're not satisfied, you can drink it yourself." Li Andy said.
"Are you sick?! If I had a mouth, would I still need him..." Halfway through the curse, the wine bottle suddenly froze.
"Eh? I have senses! Hehehe~~ I have senses!"
The wine bottle screamed excitedly, wiggling like a maggot to the side of the un-drunk ordinary wine bottles, mouth to mouth, guzzling, which was quite an eyesore.
This incredible scene completely stunned Anthony.
At the same time, he was horrified to find that some blurry things in his mind quietly became clear again!
Maybe... this person can really help us!
His gaze towards Li Andy gradually changed.
Just then, light poured down from a hole that had appeared in the tent roof at some point, falling on Li Andy.
At this moment, Li Andy, with his back to the light, curved his lips slightly and smiled, nodding at him.
In a trance, Anthony felt as if he saw the savior sent from heaven in the opera.
Noticing the change in the other party's emotions, Li Andy's lips curved up a little more.
Very good, of course, when someone in despair sees the only hope, what they pour out from their heart will naturally be the truth.
Hmm... why do I feel like this operation of mine is a bit too skilled?
And... why does it feel a bit like cult proselytizing?
