"Roselle?"
Klein was filled with surprise. It wasn't that he hadn't tried to divine about this fellow countryman of his, but it wasn't that he couldn't receive any revelations due to the lack of prerequisites, or that he had been interfered with, preventing him from achieving the desired effect.
He had never seen him so clearly before!
I never expected to see Roselle when I was divining the Fallen Morning Star …
So this necklace was made by him. It's no wonder Mr. Tower felt that its origins weren't simple…
However, in the divination scene just now, the Emperor seemed to be talking to some invisible existence…
I can't see… What does it represent? Hmm… It should be some unknown existence to me.
"It's because I've never known such an 'unknown,' so the result of divination doesn't have any revelations or symbols…"
After a few minutes of consideration, Klein conjured another goatskin and wrote a new divination statement:
"The origins of the gems on this necklace."
After reciting the divination statement seven times, Klein held the goatskin and held the Morning Star necklace before leaning back in his chair.
Since he had accepted Mr. Tower's money, he had to figure out the origins of the necklace.
In seconds, Klein's eyes turned from brown to black as he entered a Cogitation state.
His eyelids drooped down as he "saw" the illusory and blurry dream.
In the gray and shattered world, a dragon suddenly appeared!
The dragon was dozens of meters long, and the scales on its body were made up of five-colored gems. Overall, it looked less ferocious than the lizards that Klein knew. It was more beautiful.
However, it wasn't in a good state. Its huge body was constantly rolling on the ground, and its face was extremely distorted. Even Klein could tell what it was afraid of.
"Ariehogg!" The gem dragon finally fell silent after shouting that name. Then, the gem scales on its body peeled off and disappeared.
Following that, the scene changed. On a hazy land, there was a huge stone pillar that was tens of meters tall. And above it was a tall dragon.
The dragon crouched at the top of the stone pillar like a tiny mountain. Its body was covered in huge grayish-white stone scales, and its eyes were pale gold and vertical.
With a whoosh, the two wings of the mind dragon spread open, almost covering the entire sky.
Following that, scales that looked like gems fell under its wings.
At this point, the scene shattered as Klein opened his eyes.
So that gem dragon was hunted by another dragon… And from the hazy scene at the back, it seems like a dream… So that's a mind dragon?
However, what does the gem dragon mean by "Ariehogg" before it died? Is it its own name, or the name of the dragon that killed it? Or does it mean something else? Sigh, that seems to be Dragonese. Unfortunately, I haven't learned it…
Klein couldn't help but sigh as he placed the Morning Star necklace back into the junk pile.
Yes, ever since he became a Clown and could bring items into the gray fog without expending any energy, a corner of the ancient palace had formed a junk pile.
Right now, there was a suitcase containing the Tree of Elders' core, the Telepathist formula he sold, as well as a stack of gold pounds he received from accepting the request. There was also some spare clothes and spiritual materials that hadn't been expended from the recent "sacrifice."
Now, there was another necklace of Beyonders.
Klein didn't plan on returning the Fallen Morning Star to the "tower" that quickly. After all, he had previously mentioned that his Blessed had been entrusted to investigate its origins. It was impossible for him to be that efficient.
Furthermore, the results were obtained in less than a day. Mr. Tower might have some doubts about it… After all, the more difficult it was, the more precious it was!
Therefore, it was more reasonable to return it to Mr. Tower in a week or two and inform him of the divination result.
Besides, I've also made progress in my investigation of the house with the red chimney. If I were to really meet the mastermind behind Mr. Azik's interference in my fate, this item might be of some help… Although it doesn't have any offensive means, it has all sorts of supportive abilities and recovery abilities.
As for the offensive means… I still have to create Flaring Sun Charms as soon as possible. Its power might even exceed that of Sequence 7 or 6…
Yes, tomorrow… I should be able to receive the report of Mr. Azik's paranormal activity tomorrow!
With this in mind, the expectant Klein prepared to leave the world above the gray fog. But at that moment, the illusory star that symbolized The Sun began to expand and contract. Derrick was requesting a sacrificial ritual.
The Sun has exchanged for the ingredients Mr. Tower needs? That was quick!
…
Backlund, at the entrance of the Harvest Church on Rose Street.
Looking at the perturbed young lady who was making a request, he asked thoughtfully,
"Are you going to buy the potion ingredients of Swindler?"
Hazel heaved a sigh of relief when she saw that he didn't directly reject her offer. She didn't harp on the topic as she nodded and said, "I've already digested the Marauder potion. I naturally have to seek to advance to Sequence 8."
"From the looks of it, you haven't given up on the path to becoming a Beyonder…" Ebner said after glancing at Hazel.
From the looks of it, this lady wasn't frightened by the horror of the Beyonder incident. She's a lot more determined than in her original book… Is it because the Primordial Moon didn't hurt her family?
Or was he influenced by Bishop Utravsky and learned some of the qualities of his body?
Despite looking weak, the rather stubborn Hazel didn't hesitate to say, "Of course, although I'm ashamed and frustrated over my ignorance, I don't wish to give up on this path… Besides, the more I know, the more I can sense the danger of this world…
"Only by becoming powerful… as powerful as you, Detective Bryan, can I protect my parents and my family."
Me? Powerful? Heh heh, I'm only a weak chicken, okay! If you suddenly put on a monocle one day, you can instantly squash me to death…
In that case, go to the Bravehearts Bar on Iron Gate Street at seven on Friday night and find Kaspars. Say that it was introduced by Ebner. He will take you to the Beyonder gathering.
Hazel hesitated for a moment when she heard that. Finally, she said in embarrassment, "Detective Bryan, can you… Can you pick me up here on Friday night? I… I don't know the way…"
I'm only familiar with North Borough and Empress Borough in Backlund. Even the area south of the Bridge only knows Rose Street.
And participating in Beyonder gatherings is a secret from my family. I can't order my carriage driver around.
Although Ebner was surprised by this request, he didn't find it troublesome. He nodded and agreed.
"Alright."
…
After returning to the villa on Kingst Street in Cherwood Borough, Ebner was just about to ask Mr. Skade about Will Auceptin's address when he saw the gentleman walk over and report,
"Detective Bryan, a guest came after you left."
"Oh? Is he the client? Has he left?" Abner didn't take it to heart. After all, he was a famous detective, so it was normal for someone to come to him for a job.
"He calls himself Irvin Binkley, a neighbor of yours from the neighborhood where you used to live," Mr. Skade answered meticulously.
Through this period of time, he was becoming more like a qualified butler.
Irvin Bengley? He should be the son of the coffee shop's owner, Mrs. Bengley, right? I remember that the lady had entrusted me with investigating Miss Ailin…
What was he looking for?
With this in mind, Abner asked.
But Mr. Skade shook his head and replied, "I'm sorry, Detective Bryan. He didn't say… but he said he would come again tomorrow afternoon."
"Got it." Ebner nodded slightly and left the matter at that. He then asked for Will Auceptin's address.
"It's 66 Dalton Street in North Borough," Mr. Skade answered after a moment's hesitation. Although he was puzzled by the question, he didn't ask anything.
