Klein's face instantly turned pale, allowing Angel to confirm his thoughts.
Sure enough, for some reason, he felt afraid. Was he simply afraid of me, or something on my body?
Or, afraid of women?
Looking at "Mad Adventurer" who looked away and froze in place, refusing to move, Angel was surprised and had the idea of teasing him.
"Is this the negative effect of your new Mystical Item?"
She asked softly, moving closer to each other until they were close to each other.
"I... yes..."
Klein felt his chest beating loudly, his body trembled involuntarily, and the hairs on his body stood on end, as if he had been shocked by an electric shock.
This is not the excitement of being close to Angel, but the negative effect of the Mystical Item, or the magical weapon, "Death Knell" that he just bought for 9,000 pounds.
"Bang——"
A bright yellow flame burst out from Klein's dress, and the figure disappeared from it and appeared in the bedroom instantly.
Then he quickly rushed to the door, locked it, separated him from Angel, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking back, the scary woman was looking at him with a smile.
She followed up, using the afterglow of my "Flaming Jump"... Klein Affliction closed her eyes, not daring to look at the other person anymore. In her heart, besides sighing at Angel's fighting talent, she was only afraid of women.
If there weren't more women on the street, he would have fled long ago and come back when the negative effects wore off.
"What's wrong with you?"
Seeing that Klein was stiff and about to collapse, Angel sighed and stopped trying to get closer to him. Instead, he sat down on a chair in the corner to give the other party some buffer space.
This thoughtful gesture made Klein calm down, opened his eyes, walked slowly to the bed, took off his coat, got into bed, covered his head with the quilt in a funny way, and then explained his problem.
It turned out that he bought a revolver, "Death Knell", from the former teammate of "Strongest Hunter" through the introduction of Anderson Hood.
This weapon, which costs almost three times as much as "Good Luck", has three special abilities:
First, by directly injecting Spirituality, a normal attack can cause Weakness Strike, allowing the user to easily discover the target's weaknesses and provide corresponding accuracy, causing more attack damage than usual;
Secondly, on the basis of "Weakness Strike", additional Spirituality is provided, which can produce a shotgun-like effect and cause range damage. The more Spirituality provided, the better the effect;
Third, similar to "Good Luck", if you open the hammer and pull the trigger, this attack will be classified as "Lethal Strike". Any position on the target's body will be regarded as Weakness Strike. If it hits a real weak point, it will cause fatal damage to an enemy with average defense.
Carrying this "Death Knell" will make people feel constantly thirsty, which can be solved by drinking more water. However, once it is used, within the next 6 hours, a new "weakness" will be obtained, or an existing weakness will be strengthened. This is different from a weakness that can cause fatal injuries when hit, but a psychological "fear", such as...
"... For example, after you got the weapon and tried it out on the spot, your current weakness is 'female'?"
Holding an iron-black pistol with a barrel several inches longer than an ordinary revolver, Angel asked curiously.
She wanted to try the effect of "Lethal Strike", but she was afraid that it would have some strange weaknesses like Klein, so she didn't act impulsively.
The experience of "Magician Pocket Watch" has been unforgettable for me... She looked at Klein who was hiding under the quilt with burning eyes. The latter seemed to feel her gaze and tightened the quilt.
"... Yes, but I hid outside for a while before returning here. It shouldn't last long. Just let me rest for a while."
He replied angrily from under the quilt.
"Death Knell" sounds like a more powerful name than "Good Luck". Judging from its effects, it probably belongs to "Hunter" Pathway, where Anderson is located in "" Reaper"Sequence, which is why it is worth nearly ten thousand pounds...Angel put down the pistol and wanted to leave the bedroom to let Klein spend this difficult moment, but when he saw Velvet Quilt shaking slightly, he had a bad intention again.
She first came to the bedroom door with heavy steps, closed the door with a bang, then held her breath, entered the invisible state, and tiptoed back to the bed.
After a while, he heard no sound from outside. Klein carefully opened the quilt. He just took off his coat. His shirt was wrinkled and his short black hair was a little messy. His eyes looked around and suddenly locked on Angel's position.
Oops, he opened Spirit Vision and saw Spirit Body Threads...Angel, who knew the opponent Beyonder Ability well, said something bad in secret, suddenly broke out of the invisible state, and rushed forward.
"..."
Klein opened his mouth and howled silently. He held up his hands and stepped back. In his panic, he even forgot to use "Flaming Jump" and just tried to stay away from the woman in front of him.
"Don't move, be good," Angel said softly, getting closer and closer, "You can close your eyes."
"Wait, wait a minute..."
"Let me see... hey, spirit, body, thread... how did you recover? Didn't it take 6 hours?"
"... I hid outside for almost 6 hours before I came back."
"You lied to me?"
"It was you who took the initiative to provoke..."
After a period of commotion in the bedroom, silence finally returned. The dock and sea outside the window had disappeared into the night. The crimson Crimson Moon light spilled onto Earth Mother and secretly penetrated into the bedroom through the cracks in the window, flickering slightly.
At three o'clock on Monday afternoon, Angel arrived at the palace above Gray Fog on time and sat on the high-backed chair belonging to "Empress".
She secretly glanced at the farthest "world" Klein, feeling ashamed and regretful for her behavior of throwing herself into the trap two days ago.
Fortunately, everyone was very busy these two days. Klein went to Dominic to buy the information about Backlund and prepared to return to the North Continent. Angel went to Came between Resistance Private Port and Bayam, intending to use "Red Haired Woman" in his name to send the two back to Pritz Harbor, while doing Smuggling Business to earn back the travel expenses.
So they all avoided talking about that magical afternoon.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool, and everyone~"
"Justice" Audrey greeted cheerfully. Her "Psychiatrist" Potion had been almost digested through her own efforts. Thinking that Sequence 6 was so close, it was inevitable to feel happy.
"Hermit" Cattleya seemed to have figured out a lot of things after the last punishment and took the initiative to submit three pages of Emperor Roselle's Diary. However, Angel guessed that she was probably helping "Queen Mystic" Bernadette behind her to get information. After all, this was the reason why she was punished last time.
Furthermore, this is evidenced by her request:
"Mr. Fool, I want to know why Emperor Roselle went crazy in his later years."
Sure enough, this was the question Bernadette, the eldest daughter of the emperor, asked her to ask... Angel nodded secretly, and she was also looking forward to the answer. After all, this was a senior time traveler, a powerful and unrestrained High Sequence Beyonder.
Fool was silent for a rare moment before answering:
"I am not omniscient or omnipotent, so I am also exploring the reasons for his madness through my diary.
"It is certain that Roselle turned his attention to Sequence 0 in his later years due to the influence of some unknown reasons."
Sequence 0 is equal to True God of Pathway. This secret knowledge is already the consensus within Tarot Club.
Therefore, all Tarot Club members, including Cattleya, showed shocked expressions.
Roselle Wanted to become a god in his later years, so he became crazy? Was it because he was eager to explore the path to becoming a god, or was he failed in the promotion or preparation process, became insane, and was eventually assassinated? Didn't his daughter Bernadette know about her father's situation at that time?
More questions popped up in Angel's mind, and he turned his attention to Mr. Fool, but did not wait for his further answer.
"You can communicate freely."
He just ordered in a calm tone.
Everyone could only put away their curious eyes and wait for Fool's next answer.
Maybe He is also looking for answers, so he wants us to collect more diaries. It seems that Mr. Fool is not omniscient... Well, He has admitted it himself... Angel cursed, feeling a scrutinizing gaze from the top of the long table, and quickly put away his little thoughts.
Fortunately, Mr. "Sun" got the formula of "Notary" from Klein in the "world" and fulfilled his promise. He accidentally picked up "Poison Needle of the Black-Striped Shadow Scorpion" from "Afternoon Town Exploration Team" and sold it to Angel for 3,000 pounds on account.
In this way, after spending 2,000 pounds to buy the "Notary" formula, he still had 1,000 pounds left, which could be used to buy the Potion materials of "Notary", some of which were plants that grew in the sun, which "Forsaken Land of the Gods" could not own at all.
"... When I exchanged all my merits for the giant scorpion poisonous needle, Chief Your Excellency, who led Expedition Team, personally intervened, but did not stop my behavior. I think I should tell you."
After the transaction was completed, "Sun" Derrick said. He looked at "Hanged Man", obviously hoping that the other party would give some hints.
"Oh, I don't think there's anything to worry about," Alger chuckled and glanced at "Hermit" Cattleya, finally finding his own "strength" in Tarot Club, "In other words, you should have been exposed to him a long time ago."
Derrick's expression changed rapidly when he heard this, and he sat up straight, which made his height even more outstanding.
"But I think this is not a bad thing. Your 'chief' should have confirmed that you have another channel to obtain Potion formulas, materials, and even various gifts independent of City of Silver. If he wants to solve He has already taken action to kill you... In fact, he is probably happy to see the changes in City of Silver caused by the power behind you, and he should be more assured of you than another elder who believes in 'True Creator'.
"As long as you improve Sequence step by step and make contributions, he will not stop you, and will even help you secretly... You can try to reveal to him that you obtained the 'Notary' formula in exchange for some Potion materials. If he agrees without hesitation, you can prove my words."
Mr. "Hanged Man" is indeed the senior Beyonder in Church of Storms, with rich "struggle experience" with his superiors... Angel sighed with emotion. After "Sun" expressed his gratitude to him, he asked:
"Mr. Hanged Man, and others, I would like to issue a commission to investigate the recent bloody sacrifice incident at 'Sona Island' near Midway Island in the south of the Berserk Sea."
She also looked at "Hanged Man", hoping that this believer of Storm could get some information from the inside.
