"Angel conveyed the meaning of 'Goddess's Sword', letting me know that this is probably a 'trial' against me, but who said that the trial will not be life-threatening?"

Klein murmured secretly, stroking the amethyst pendant in his hand, and gradually calmed down the tension in his heart under the warm touch of the crystal and gold chain.

"Fortunately, Angel has left Backlund. Even if there is any accident, it will not affect her. I should still have two chances to be 'resurrected'. I hope that when that happens, they will not burn my body...

"If everything goes well, at this time tomorrow, we will be able to celebrate our respective 'victories' together. She successfully solved the exposed 'Mirror Person', and I also got the ticket to High Sequence..."

Klein, who had just given Angel the "Paper Doll Angel" blessing half an hour ago, joked a few words to himself, returned to the bed, and drew the mysterious symbol summoning Arrodes on a mirror that had been prepared.

There is no need to wait. The power that seems to have been lurking inside the mirror makes the mirror surface flow with a silver glow, and the words Loenese jump out one by one:

"Great master, your loyal and humble servant Arrodes is at your service anytime and anywhere!"

No matter how many times, this strong smell of dog licking makes me feel uncomfortable... Klein looked at the words in the mirror calmly, and after a moment he said:

"Do you know where 'Antigonus Family Notebook' is located in Chanis Gate below Saint Samuel Cathedral?"

Klein was not prepared to confirm this most critical issue until before taking action, so that he could complete the theft as quickly as possible after entering Chanis Gate.

We did not ask in advance because we were worried that after Chanis Gate there would be a powerful Sealed Artifact similar to "0-08", which has the characteristic of "if you know it, it will know you", which would arouse the vigilance of Nighthawks people.

The text in the mirror faded, and then formed an indoor map with irregular edges in a dense dot matrix. The silver text below simultaneously narrated:

"It is designated as '1' level Sealed Artifact, and it is placed in the right area of the second floor behind Chanis Gate, which has three floors. The approximate location has been marked on the map," Arrodes's text this time was thick and dense, "Master, do you know that the third floor, which is the bottom floor, contains more terrifying items sealed?" "

Now I know there are three floors there... Klein's gradually rising tension was slightly relieved by Arrodes's "cooperation".

He immediately understood that the other party was reminding him not to enter the lowest level, otherwise there would be no return.

This means that Goddess Church is sealing a certain "0" level Sealed Artifact in Backlund? It seems that Three Great Churches's agreement not to place Sealed Artifact of this level in this city has been fulfilled honestly... His expression did not change, he nodded and said:

"Know."

Subsequently, Klein asked several key information about Arrodes's plan in a question-and-answer format, and made final preparations. Then, the mirror transformed into Dwayne Dantès in pajamas, lying on the bed in a slightly funny posture, grabbing the quilt with both hands and pulling it up, revealing only half of his face.

He himself turned into the appearance of Gehrman Sparrow, with a stern expression, wearing "Creeping Hunger" in one hand, and holding a gold coin with "Admiral of Blood" and Marionette in the other hand.

"By the way, before Angel left, did I ask you any questions about my operation?"

The left glove became transparent, and when it switched to the soul of "Traveler", Klein paused, looked at "Dwayne Dantès", and asked.

"She asked," "Dawn" nodded and replied with a voice that was full of vicissitudes of life and thick, "Do you want to know my answer?"

"Yes."

"Everything will go well, noble master."

After a while, calm returned to the bedroom, and the thin but tall figure of Gehrman disappeared.

On Monday morning, Angel, who was waiting for the simple silver mirror to be "charged", couldn't wait to draw the summoning symbol and saw Arrodes's text composed of tiny silver light spots.

"Dear Mistress, do you know that the great master has completed his great plan and obtained the Potion formula of 'Trick Sorcerer'?"

Arrodes, who appeared in the silver mirror, did not greet him as flatteringly as before, but quickly asked a question.

Klein successfully obtained Antigonus Family Notebook?

After reading that paragraph, Angel closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and shared Arrodes's joy that almost overflowed the mirror. After a moment, he remembered that the time for this communication was limited, and asked:

"Now I know... did he sneak into Chanis Gate early this morning and get that notebook?"

——At this time Trier is around nine o'clock in the morning. According to the time difference, Backlund is already afternoon. Klein once said that his plan will be carried out on a Monday, so it can only be the time Angel said.

"No, the master did not obtain the note, but he did obtain the Potion formula he needed. You can ask him about the specific process later."

Silver text appears one by one, and there is also a clock that goes to 3 o'clock on the lower right, which obviously means that his "time is limited."

With a chuckle, Angel stopped continuing this topic, but took out a piece of paper with five names written on it, pointed it at the silver mirror, and asked:

"Can you show the specific information of these five people, including their appearance, address, and job?"

"No problem, distinguished Mistress, two of them have the same name, do you want to provide the information of all seven people?"

Arrodes answered quickly and took advantage of the situation to give a "question".

"Both."

Angel nodded, and then looked at the silver-white sketches emerging one after another on the mirror, with their detailed information below.

Although they have the same name, according to Danio, they are concentrated among the Government Affairs Department and Police Department, so Coachman and the chore maid with the same name can be excluded... Angel eliminated the two people with the same name while memorizing it. After the information was displayed, he asked:

"These are 'Mirror Person' information that have been exposed, should I hand it over to 'Machinery Hivemind' and 'Purifiers'?"

After returning to the hotel last night, Angel had used Hidden Holy Emblem to pray to Evernight Goddess and asked similar questions, but except for the holy symbol turning cold for a moment, she did not get any response. Therefore, until now, she has not been able to confirm whether she should tell the two major churches of Trier about the information of "Mirror Person".

"I think all Orthodox Church's stance is consistent in their attitude towards dealing with 'Mirror Person', and Church of Evernight will also gain corresponding gains afterwards."

The message "Sheval Dumar" on the silver mirror dissipated, a line of text appeared, and then the mirror fell into darkness. Just when Angel thought that the energy accumulated in the mirror was exhausted, a scene that was clearly indoors appeared on the black mirror. Two old men faced each other. There was a conversation going on across the street. Although the picture in the mirror was silent, Angel could still recognize one of them through his clothes. It was Archbishop Anthony Stevenson who had communicated with her before she came to Trier.

She had never seen another old man wearing a clergy hat and a white Pastor robe, but Arrodes thoughtfully added a name next to the picture:

Church of the God of Steam and Machinery Archbishop, Horamick Haydn.

"When did this happen?"

she asked, frowning.

The picture in the mirror disappeared, and a line of text with a faint color slowly appeared.

"Backlund time this morning.

"Honorable Mistress, I want to leave temporarily. Can I get your permission?"

After charging for three days and using it for three minutes... Angel's mouth twitched and he nodded:

"Okay."

It seemed that the words just now were the last strength of Arrodes. After getting permission, it didn't even have time to say goodbye, and left the silver mirror. The mottled mirror surface of the latter returned to normal, which was a bit dazzling under the sunlight outside the window.

Angel had no time to pay attention. She replayed the image as a reminder in her mind and quickly determined what Arrodes meant.

In the early morning of Backlund time, that should be shortly after I prayed to Goddess... Arianna received the message and immediately notified Backlund's Archbishop Anthony, who in turn contacted Church of Steam's Archbishop Horamick Haydn, and then reached an agreement on the issue of "Mirror Person"?

Whether by telegraph or occult means, Church of Steam should be able to contact Trier's church overnight. Therefore, if I go to "report" now, I can attract their attention and avoid getting into trouble. Moreover, Goddess Church can also get a copy of the information obtained from the arrest and interrogation of "Mirror Person"...

After confirming this, Angel finally let go of her worries. Without any delay, she immediately copied two copies of the seven "Mirror Person" messages she had just seen, including two people with the same names, attached a black mirror fragment to each, and stuffed them into the prepared document bag.

That's right, in addition to Church of Steam, whom she has already contacted, she also plans to submit the same report letter to Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun.

This can minimize the risk of "Mirror Person" escaping due to a single church action error. According to the principle of joint operations, no matter how much information Purifiers of Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun obtains, it must share it with "Machinery Hivemind", which is equivalent to sharing it with "Nighthawks".

Moreover, the fact that the two major churches received the reporting letters at the same time can also increase the sense of competition between them to prevent them from being too slow in taking action...

After making up her mind, she quickly took two document bags, left the hotel, and got into a hired carriage.

"Go to Cathedral District, Archbishop Cathedral for Church of Steam."

That is the core church of the "God of Steam and Machinery" church located in the Trier diocese. If Backlund's information reaches here, it will definitely be known to "Machinery Hivemind" there first!
