After all, this admiral was a time-tested Beyonder, and he quickly calmed down, especially the frank eyes of "Gehrman", which made him subconsciously think that the other party was unlikely to be the initiator of various accidents. Otherwise, he would have escaped Oravi Island before he came back. How could he dare to sleep soundly on the bed?

After calming down, he quickly asked about the details of the past three days.

Klein did not do much rendering, except to hide the role Angel played in the battle and isolate the drop of blood from Anne "Mother Tree of Desire" The role of power was attributed to the effect of "Ninth Law" Charm. He told Emilius everything that happened in the three days and the key choices he made.

Of course, he would never say anything about the fact that Mother Tree of Desire's real target is probably himself and Angel.

Not to mention that this is all based on speculation, just for the admiral to find out that he is actually affected by Chi Yu's role may cause endless trouble in the future.

Hearing that Cynthia was deceived by the Naturism Sect and turned into a deformed monster, and was finally killed by Purification in Holy Light, Emilius took the necklace with the black rhino horn pendant and squeezed it tightly, with bulging veins on the back of his hand and a gloomy look on his face.

"You took care of their leader and sent Lü'er An to publicly search for 'Naturism Sect' across the island?"

He asked slowly, his voice low, hiding inexplicable emotions.

"I think that's the reaction you should have."

Klein answered calmly that such accidents were not among the "coping methods" he received after receiving the commission. The method of handling them was purely based on his speculation after understanding Emilius, Demigod, but he was very confident.

"Your choice is no problem."

Silently pacing back and forth in the bedroom, after a while, Emilius said.

With the other party's approval, Klein felt that Potion had digested a lot in this final reply.

Compared with his fragmentary performance and what he has received from secretaries, mistresses and guard servants these days, the final recognition of one Demigod is undoubtedly more effective feedback.

He breathed a sigh of relief and felt that his whole body had relaxed a lot. The tension in the past few days, the various "tests" encountered, and the crisis last night had finally paid off.

He glanced at him curiously, Emilius curled up the corner of his mouth, making the corners of his depressed mouth more vivid, and then said:

"You can leave now. Get the remaining reward from Biert."

After this kind of thing, don't you need to sign a "confidentiality agreement"? Or does he think that a Sequence 6 would never dare to violate professional ethics and go out to publicize Emilius's private affairs?

Klein A few thoughts flashed through his mind, he nodded calmly, and exchanged clothes.

Seeing that Klein's left shoulder was still bandaged under the nightgown, with a lot of blood seeping out, Emilius frowned and asked casually:

"Is your shoulder injured last night?"

Klein took over the windbreaker and top hat and replied:

"It's not serious."

He is not being modest. This injury will completely heal in a few days. If he borrows "Rose Necklace" from Angel after he returns, it will only take a few minutes.

"Get an extra 200 pounds from Biert and say it's my order."

He calmly added an extra portion to Klein's salary. Emilius put on his nightgown, straightened his somewhat messy hair, and transformed back into the respectable Demigod.

And Klein also resumed the dress of Mad Adventurer, holding a hat in hand and bowing his head elegantly:

"Thank you for your generosity."

When he raised his head again and put on his top hat, his face had changed back to the thin "Gehrman Sparrow".

Watching Klein's leaving figure by the window, Emilius held the rhinoceros horn pendant in his hand, looking up at Crimson Moon in the sky.

Compared with when he went to Nameless Island to search for Ghost Ship but failed, Moon was a little rounder.

But when I came back, everything was different...

Bang, he clenched his fingers tightly, and then released them. The pendant was crushed into powder and fell to the ground.

After leaving Emilius's villa, Klein did not immediately rush back to the hotel where Angel lived. Instead, while using Paper Figurine to avoid divination tracking, he found a hidden alley, walked four steps backward, boarded Gray Fog Palace, and "dealt with" all the hidden dangers he had played in the past three days.

First of all, he naturally assessed whether he was contaminated by "Mother Tree of Desire". He used prayer feedback, Paper Doll Angel, Sea God's Scepter and other methods to turn himself inside out, and did detailed divination. Only then did he initially determine that he was still "clean".

Otherwise, he would rather report to Church of Storms's church overnight than dare to return to Angel and bring possible risks to her.

The admiral's mistress, Cynthia's tragic scene that night, and her last tears are still in Klein's heart, and I'm afraid it will take a long time to forget her.

After doing all this, he did not return to reality immediately. Instead, he sat on Fool's high-backed chair and thought about it all.

"The divination beforehand showed that there was no risk, and there was no trace of contamination afterwards... If these two divinations were interfered with by a certain entity, and I was not even aware of it, it means that the other person's status is very high, even surpassing that of a righteous god..."

He murmured, looking at the "clutter pile" next to the high-backed chair. There were "Sea God's Scepter" derived from Kalvetua, "King of Angel" Amon, Worm of Time, and "All-Black Eye" contaminated by True Creator...

Whether it is King of Angel of Sequence 1 or "True Creator" whose personality is similar to True God, they are all contaminated by this Gray Fog suppressed steadily. He even committed suicide here, divined "Eternal Blazing Sun" and "True Creator", and withstood the opponent's counterattack, but did not die on the spot.

When Backlund divines the whereabouts of Angel, as long as there are relevant clues, Gray Fog can also eliminate interference from "Hidden Holy Emblem".

"There are two possibilities. First, this Gray Fog cannot detect the interference of 'Mother Tree of Desire', which is even a higher existence than ordinary God; secondly, this pollution does not have real 'harm'. His purpose is really to make me, Angel, his favored one?"

But no matter what, as Beyonder of Sequence 6, my control over this Gray Fog is still too low... I'm afraid it won't be truly useful to me until Demigod.

He raised his head and looked in the direction of Stairs of Light, which seemed to be hidden in the depths of Gray Fog. His desire to be promoted to Sequence and improve his strength became more urgent.

After passing through Gray Fog and returning to reality, Klein re-selected the direction and rushed towards "Sweet Lemon Bar" in the night.

In the room of Bilt Brando on the second floor of Sweet Lemon Bar.

The leader of Adventurers' Mutual Aid Society was holding a cigar and looking out the window in the direction of the naval base.

Last night, a small-scale riot broke out in the admiral's mansion near the base. Church of Storms intervened. The military intervened. Many guards and servants were carried out and sent to hospitals or churches.

Since then, the local garrison has joined forces with the police to carry out a series of operations, focusing on cracking down on the "Naturism Sect" members hidden on the island. The actions were swift and the methods rough. Even ordinary adventurers and "gray zone" industries suffered considerable losses.

According to his inquiries, the order for the operation was actually issued by "Navy Admiral Emilius" personally.

That guy is a fake now!

Biert didn't remember that these actions were written in the information he got from Emilius. As his substitute, as long as he eats and drinks well, hides it from the people around him, and finds some excuse to delay important decisions until a few days later, he can complete the admiral's commission and leave. With the character of Emilius, he will not kill anyone and silence him, and the rewards will be paid in full.

But what's going on now?

If Emilius hadn't told him not to touch that Gehrman Sparrow easily before leaving, Biert would have wanted to rush into the admiral's mansion now and question this stupid Mad Adventurer, what was going on in his head?

With a click, the door opened. Biert turned around and found that it was his deputy Sotos Yang, a man with bronze skin and a beard.

"Have you found it?"

Biert returned to the table, put the cigar on the ashtray, and asked.

"The situation is still unclear..."

Sotos answered vaguely and unbuttoned his trench coat.

"Then continue to investigate!" Biert yelled angrily when he heard that his subordinates were not doing things well. "When General Your Excellency comes back, we will have to feed the fish without knowing anything about it! If that were the case, we might as well have given up the industry here and become pirates in the east!"

"But..."

Sotos still looked confused, with a confused expression and wrinkled features.

"No but, use all your contacts to find out, there will always be someone who knows what happened last night, but don't go to Bribe, General Your Excellency's people, he doesn't like this... Go to Cynthia's house and ask, her parents may know something."

Biert pointed out, a little disappointed with this subordinate who often hangs out among pirates.

"I thought you knew something."

Sighing, Sotos said with some regret, wiped his face with his hand, and in Biert's horrified eyes, he turned into the Mad Adventurer, Gehrman that he was still cursing secretly just now.
