Since the meeting on Tuesday, Xia De's experience in the past few days has been very exciting. To sum it up, there are probably four things about the Dream Pen, Miss Galina's commission, the Sunshine Gun and the Rhodes card.
The incident of retrieving the relic [Happy Dream Pen] with Miss Louisa naturally does not need him to talk about it. According to the agreement, he didn't mention the re-meeting with Miss Galina and Miss Bayas' "Sunshine Gun", so he only shared the successful identification of the founder Silver Moon.
Everyone is happy for the young detective, but except for Miss Anat, the others don't understand the specialness of the "Founding" series of cards, so they just regard this as the detective owning a very valuable treasure.
In the eyes of the others, the young detective was a pretty good guy, worth a lot of money.
It was the elder Priest Augustus who told Shad not to get into the habit of playing Rhodes easily. He has seen countless stories related to Rhodes cards in the church, and there are countless gamblers confessing their crimes in the confession room.
The old priest said anxiously while wiping his pipe:
"My lord, Mr. Liming, told us that mortals must know how to restrain unnecessary desires, and gambling is one of them."
Regarding [Blood of Mercury], everyone tacitly didn't mention too much, but Xia De believes that everyone has their own plans except for the priest Augustus who really has nothing to do with this matter.
Miss Louisa and Dr. Schneider are for the [Forged Philosopher's Stone], and Miss Anat is for Miss Bayas.
While Dr. Schneider was in bed, he also obtained some information through his own channels. In addition to what Miss Louisa mentioned, the blood of mercury was broken into pieces, he also mentioned that the church is preparing to launch a big operation against the heretics who believe in the [Lord of the Blood Banquet].
And Miss Anat also got some news from the Prophet Association.
According to her, most cult members are abnormal, so they believe in the doctrine that evil gods are abnormal. For example, believers in [Lord of the Blood Feast] believe that being an ingredient on the evil god's table is the best way to be with God.
The cultists still did not give up the idea of letting the evil **** descend, but after the failure of the Lakeview Manor incident, they gave up directly calling the evil **** to come to Tobesk, but prepared a mortal body for the evil **** to descend. It came to this age in the form of a saint.
"Let me guess. The mortal body is Mr. Lawrence."
Xia De said, Miss Anat looked at the detective in surprise:
"Can you guess this too?"
Xia De shook his head, he just connected the clues in his hand:
"This is actually not surprising at all, otherwise it would not be able to explain the reason why 'Mrs. La Soya' took great pains to contact him. Last time the academy said that the ring was called [Transformation Ring], although the relic did distort his preferences, but to be honest, A greasy middle-aged man like Mr. Lawrence does not seem to be able to attract women, especially [Blood of Mercury] is not short of money."
He thought of the tragic death of Mrs. Lawrence, pursed his lips and continued:
"Besides, I recently got in touch with the Police Department because of a task I entrusted, and I heard about Lawrence's family. It is not difficult to guess that Mr. Lawrence, who was taken away, is the body prepared for the evil god."
Mr. Lawrence's date of birth, personality, age, figure, and the so-called soul in the field of occult science all meet the conditions for becoming the body of an evil god. After artificially compounding drugs to make him a bulimia patient, he is the [Blood of Mercury] organization, a candidate for the gods prepared for the cultists.
Moreover, it is much easier to use the method of calling the saint to perform the divine descent than directly calling the evil **** itself, and the impact is also smaller. Therefore, the church has recently stepped up investigations to ensure that there will not be a second divine descent ceremony in the Tobesk area.
Xia De, the doctor, Miss Louisa and Miss Anat provided news about the heretics, and Priest August provided news about the Orthodox Church.
"Next week, Mr. Hogg Rendell, the thirteen-ring warlock of the Church of the Sun, 'Sunshine Great Sword', will arrive at Tobesk Diocese. At that time, the Church of the Five Gods will conduct a joint operation to wipe out the cultists, and then Slowly deal with the [Blood of Mercury] scattered in the city.
"That Rendell? I thought it would be the 'Sun Emblem'."
Miss Anat said, and Miss Louisa told Xia De in a low voice that these two are contemporary thirteen-ring magicians of the Church of the Sun. The former is famous for the magic [Sunshine Great Sword], and the latter is a woman who is proficient in thaumaturgy and magic based on the "heraldry" system.
"The 'Sun Emblem' recently went to the New World to deal with matters. It seems to be a relic related to the sun god."
Priest Augustus is really well informed.
"Then what about the original thirteen-ring magician in the Tobesk parish? I remember it seems to be called the 'steel right hand'."
Shad also joined the inquiry.
"I don't know much about this. The Church of Creation has blocked the news. But it is said that it is entangled in troubles. There have been out-of-control incidents of angel-level relics (level 1) in the towns around Tobesk. Recently, the Church of Creation has been busy with this. "
The priest shrugged, seeing the surprise on Xia De's face, and added:
After Miss Louisa shared the containment incident about the "Happy Dream Pen", she talked to Shad about the battle with the murlocs last night. Others regretted that they didn't get more clues about Mercury's Blood, but there were a lot of interesting things to say about that scale.
Since no one else had experienced anything worth mentioning this week, the conversation somehow drifted into politics.
They discussed the topic of the next heir to the Kingdom of Delarion, and believed that the current king had too many children, which would inevitably lead to a war of heirs decades later. Miss Louisa has a very good opinion on this issue, and she knows the secrets of the royal family very well.
Then the topic changed to the scenery of the United Kingdom of Carson Rik. The doctor talked about what he saw and heard when he went to Carson Rik to attend an academic conference when he was young, and mentioned the seascape of the southern country; Miss Anat preferred the original Carson Rik. The forest, she thinks that staying in that environment for a long time is good for the skin; Miss Louisa has a special liking for the vineyards in the southern kingdom, and said that her biggest dream is to have a vineyard of her own.
As the conversation progressed to the winter exhibition in Artek, the country's art capital, and then drifted to Princess Diana's ribbon-cutting ceremony next week, the time finally arrived at the moment agreed by the professors at the academy.
It is still using the ritual that Shade used at home. At the beginning of the ceremony, the four chairs in the east, west, south, and north must be filled with people. This time, Professor Roentgen from St. Byrence's Seminary and Professor Garcia from the School of History were coming, but the doctor couldn't leave the bed, so the older Miss Louisa and Miss Anat occupied two chairs.
The doctor's bedroom was large, with closed curtains, a washbasin and chairs on a round white embroidered rug between the desk and the four-poster bed. When Xia De, who was pinching his pocket watch, announced the arrival of the time, the blond writer immediately lit the parchment and threw it into the basin.
The blue luster scattered across the water surface, and with the appearance of two beams, the transparent bodies of Professor Roentgen, who was a little fat with a hair cover, and Professor Garcia, who had pointed ears, appeared on the chair.
"Professor Roentgen, Professor Garcia."
The five people greeted each other respectfully, and the two professors also nodded with a smile.
Hessinger Garcia, vice president of the School of History, came here specially for Shad, so after he responded to the greeting, he didn't speak any more.
Professor Rontgen coughed, picked up a piece of parchment from the air with his transparent palm, unfolded it and said:
"I won't say much about the extra words, and now I'm going to read the college's report on the Lakeview Manor incident. Ahem—
The investigation of the Sunshine Moon Lakeview Manor incident in 1853 in the Sixth Epoch has been completed. The School of Theology and the School of Mathematics sent two associate professors to the Tobesk area to check the incident on the spot and verify your investigation report. "
Xia De was a little nervous, after all, the problem reported was very big. But he found that the priest Augustus standing beside him and the two ladies who were facing the professors were not nervous at all, and he couldn't help but suspect that they often falsified their reports.
"The investigation report is basically true, and some vague details are awaiting confirmation with the Orthodox Church."
Professor Rontgen said, looking at the five people on the bed, on the chair and standing, some walrus-like faces smiled:
"Gentlemen and ladies, I am very glad to see you who have gone through this kind of incident, and you can appear in front of me safely."
The doctor coughed quickly.
"Of course, with regard to Bill Schneider's injury, the School of Chemistry has provided a batch of potions to heal mental injuries. But I must remind you, never use the language of sublimation lightly, you may not be able to hold on next time."
When saying this, the professor stared at the doctor and his tone became a little serious. The doctor nodded weakly, but Xia De felt that he was "weaker" than before the professors appeared just now, and he was not at all as active as when he was discussing economic topics with everyone just now.
"About the reward of practical credits, I replied on Tuesday, so I won't go into details here. By the way, Miss Dorothy Louisa, your fourth grade practical credits have been completed, if you intend to take the upgrade assessment at the end of this year, Please advance to the fifth ring as soon as possible."
Miss Louisa smiled:
"Okay professor, I think this should be fine. The sublimation language based on 'Match Girl' is ready, and I plan to be promoted to the fifth ring in autumn."
Professor Roentgen nodded:
"In addition, after the college's investigation and verification of the situation you faced at the time, it is believed that your group has made extraordinary and outstanding contributions. Therefore, in addition to credit rewards, reward your group with a special contribution bonus in St. Byrence ~www.mtlnovel.com~ pounds."
Xia De slightly opened his eyes wide and held his breath. Sure enough, the St. Byrence Comprehensive College, which is a kind camp, will give out-of-the-box rewards for "saving the world".
Professor Roentgen knew that Xia De was a newly recruited Ring Warlock, so he explained a special sentence:
"This money can only be used for the study of ring warlocks, and it can only be used for consumption expenses in St. Byrence College. It can be regarded as a quota of 1,000 pounds, with a limited period of one year, and can only be used in St. Byrence's vouchers .”
Xia De knew the price of the college, so his excitement was slightly reduced. Unexpectedly, the professor left his eyes, looked at the others, and warned:
"In principle, this money cannot be withdrawn in cash, but I know you will play a lot of tricks. These are not in my control, but I want to warn you, remember not to go too far. If the college's year-end reconciliation fails, the accounting office will The gang will come and make trouble."
It was only then that Xia De realized that the few people here were not law-abiding guys.
