After a second of pause, Aosta, who wanted to complain, forced a smile and said, "You look really scary like this."

"This is a classic image in literary works." Lumian said in a deliberately smug tone.

Aosta did not respond and chose to put on his iron mask to hide the expression on his face.

After taking a few steps towards https://www•hetushu. com•com, he stopped and knocked on the room on the right.

"Two long pauses, plus a short pause, and another long pause..." Lumian observed the performance of Aosta·Special Roul with the eyes of "Hunter".

In just two breaths, the dark red door Wooden Door slowly opened backwards.

The first thing that catches Lumian's eyes is the thick light yellow carpet, followed by the more classical-style tables, chairs, sofas and display racks.

At this time, a Daoist figure was standing in the shadow created by Gas Wall Lamp by the floor-to-ceiling window.

He was the same as Aosta·Special Roul, wearing the black Robe like the ancient Warlock, and wearing a very big Hood, so that Lumian couldn't help but sneered:

Dressed like this, can you still clearly see the person standing in front of you?

"Mr. K, Charles is here." Aosta walked in and said respectfully to the figure that was nearly 1.8 meters tall.

Lumian follows closely.

With a clang, the door behind him closed on its own.

Mr. K turned around, looked at Lumian and said, "Why do you want to attend our party?"

His voice was low and hoarse.

"For Potion Formula, for Beyonder Characteristic, for Mystical Item, for Mysticism knowledge, it can't be for Love or faith, right?" Lumian deliberately answered in a cynical tone.

Then, he chuckled:

"I know, that's not what you want to hear, but it doesn't matter, I don't mind telling you about me."

Lumian's voice immediately became deeper:

"In a Calamity brought about by extraordinary power, I lost all my relatives.

"This not only made me suffer from Pain, but also made me understand one thing, those so-called Orthodox God can't save us!

"From that day on, I pursued extraordinary power and a way to forget all Pain. I wanted to become strong enough, and I wanted those who gave me misfortune to taste all the torture."

Mr. K wearing big Hood seemed to be staring at Lumian without interrupting his narration, while Aosta·Special Roul was extremely shocked when he heard it - there was Pain in Charles's words that could not be concealed. His desire for Samaritan Woman Spring was not false!

After Lumian finished speaking, Mr. K seemed to be nodding and said, "You need to abide by two rules to participate in our party:

"First, no matter what happens, you can't do anything directly at the party.

"Two, don't try to track other Participant."

Only these two? Lumian I didn't expect there to be so few constraints.

He could find several loopholes on the spot without thinking carefully:

"If you don't take action directly, can you use the 'Provocation' ability to piss the opponent off to death?

"Not trying to track doesn't mean I can't do anything else with the target...

"Is it allowed to sell fake materials, fake formulas, fake Beyonder Characteristic, fake Mystical Item?"

Lumian controlled the urge to refute, nodded and said, "No problem."

While he answered, he felt as if Mr. K's eyes were moving on his body, as if he was inspecting every piece of flesh and every inch of skin.

This made him feel as if he was being targeted by a poisonous snake.

After a few seconds, Mr. K continued, "If you don't want to reveal what you own or what you hope to get, you can write the deal you are seeking on paper in advance, and my Waiter will copy it to the mobile blackboard and show it to all Participant. If you think it doesn't matter, you can also make a request on the spot.

"Similarly, at the party, you can complete the transaction through my Waiter, or you can come forward directly.

"What you also need to remember is that transactions are risky. I cannot guarantee that all items, materials, and answers are authentic. Of course, you can choose to pay me to notarize them, which can effectively reduce risks."

The ability of "Notary"? Lumian remembered the contents of Aurora's Witchcraft Notes.

This is the Sequence 6 of "Taihe*Tu*Shuyang" Pathway, and most of the Beyonder of this Pathway belong to "Eternal Blazing Sun" Church.

Based on this premise, Lumian suspects that Mr. K itself may not be "Notary". It is more likely that he has the corresponding Mystical Item.

Lumian quickly gathered his thoughts and said to Mr. K, "Can I write down the requirements now?"

Mr. K said "hmm" and pointed to Desk on the right side of the room:

"Just write it there and my Waiter will come and collect it."

Lumian walked towards the brown Desk with magazines such as "Spiritism", "Lotus" and "Esoterica" spread out and spread them out I picked up the Crimson-colored round-bellied Fountain Pen on lightly scented letter paper, and wrote after careful consideration, "1. I have a Beyonder weapon that is damaged. I am looking for someone who can repair it. The price is negotiable.

"2. Purchase information about a strange creature: The creature is suspected to be Spirit Body, looks like Women, has long turquoise hair wrapping its body, is full of Fascination power, and can make people have erotic dreams with her as the protagonist. The rest is unknown. The reward depends on the value of the information provided, ranging from 10 Felkine to 100 Felkine."

Lumian originally wanted to write "3.Acting'Provocateur's experience summary", but after thinking about it for a few seconds, he finally gave up the idea.

He remembered that in Nightmare, Aurora said "Acting Method", "Law of Conservation of Beyonder Characteristics", etc. Mysticism knew Knowledge is extremely valuable and cannot be known by ordinary Beyonder, and he is now pretending to be a newcomer who has just entered the extraordinary world due to Calamity and is trying to obtain more knowledge and resources.

If such a person can write "Acting" and Vocabulary, he will definitely be suspected by Mr. K.

Of course, Lumian doesn't feel that he is pretending. He is really a newcomer who has just stepped into the extraordinary world because of Calamity and is trying to obtain more knowledge and resources. It's just that the layers involved in the original Calamity The level is very high, allowing him to come into contact with powerful people like "Magician" Lady, so that he has rich high-end knowledge and lacks other common sense, which he is making up for with Witchcraft Notes from Aurora.

After putting away the letter paper and Fountain Pen, Lumian followed Aosta and left here, entering the room at the bottom of this corridor.

This room seems to be used to hold a salon. Sofas, chairs, round tables, Coffee Table, Bar Stool, etc. are placed randomly, creating a leisurely and relaxing atmosphere.

At this time, several partygoers had arrived. Some of them were wearing Black Robe and Hood that could almost cover their faces. Some of them had Makeup transformed into Clown, Demon and other images. Some of them covered their faces with rough or delicate masks, half-length or full-length masks.

For a moment, Lumian thought he was participating in a Masquerade.

He and Aosta·Special Roul separated, entered one after the other, and each found a place to sit down.

Lumian chose Bar Stool, and all it took was a cup of Absinthe.

Not long after, Mr. K entered and sat on the Armchair representing the convener. His Waiters wearing masks and Gloves moved in a mobile blackboard with transaction requirements written on it.

Looking at Lumian, the first thing I saw was the request for Beyonder Characteristic:

"Seeking Beyonder Characteristic for 'Warrior'Pathway Sequence 8'Pugilist', 15,000 Felkine, price negotiable."

Sequence 8's Beyonder Characteristic can sell for 15,000 Felkine, or even more? Lumian was stunned at first, and then felt what it means to be heartbroken, and what it means to regret so much that you want to drink Spring of Forgetting.

The Margot he just hunted was the Sequence 8 "Provocateur" of "Hunter" Pathway!

To be on the safe side, Lumian did not bother Margot until Montsouris Ghosts attacked, and left the fighting place early.

Although he later obtained more than one thousand Felkine from Margot through the exchange of Destiny, this was far from the value of "Provocateur" Beyonder Characteristic.

It took a few seconds before Lumian managed to adjust his mentality.

What he did at that time was the best choice. If he really continued to struggle, something might happen or he would be targeted by the authorities. In that case, Margot would definitely die, and he might fall into other crises.

Lumian then looked at other transaction information:

"Elf Darkleaf piece,180 Felkine."

"Emperor Roselle original diary two pages, 300 Felkine."

"Need Sequence 6'Corrupted Baron'Potion Formula, 65,000 Felkine."

"..."

Lumian browsed it briefly and deeply understood why Older Sister Aurora spends money like water.

"It's time to start." Mr. K looked around and said hoarsely.

His Waiters called out the items in turn, some received no response, and some completed transactions covertly through Waiter.

Lumian watched quietly, focusing on getting familiar with the situation and collecting intelligence.

As the party came to an end, Waiter next to the mobile blackboard finally read out Lumian's first request.

There was silence.

After more than ten seconds, Men, who was sitting in the corner of Long Sofa, said with a low smile, "Most of the people who are good at repairing Mystical Item and Beyonder weapon are at 'God of Steam and Machinery' Church. You can go there to find them."

His face was covered with oil paint, as if he was pretending to be a primitive man in the Southern Continent jungle.

No one paid attention to this unfunny joke, and Waiter of Mr. K described Lumian's second demand.

The people attending the party looked at each other, as if they were aware of such a strange creature for the first time.

As expected, they are all ignorant Low-Sequence Beyonder...Lumian was slightly disappointed and mocked in his heart.

At this time, the Men who had just made a joke said eagerly, "This reminds me of one thing, haha, there is no information fee.

"On the lower reaches of the Serenzo River, where it meets Ryan River, there is a small town called Onet. Trier Many middle class people like to go there to sail and swim.

"At the beginning of Last Year or a little later, there were three Women deaths in succession. The cause of death was weakness caused by overindulgence, and they were not Consort either openly or secretly. The only clue is that they all described to their friends that they had a beautiful erotic dream recently."
