Seeing that it was getting late, Lumian planned to study Aurora's Witchcraft Notes until midnight, and wait until tomorrow morning to find Franca, ask if "Harvest Sacrifice" has been sold, and ask her to help pay attention to Fire Salamander blood, Magma Pyroxene powder, etc. Auxiliary Ingredient.

Well, Franca is a person who sleeps late and wakes up late. If I go find her now, she must still be awake. She will probably be asleep before 11 o'clock tomorrow morning... As soon as her thoughts changed, Lumian changed her mind, packed Wooden Table, got up and left Golden Rooster Inn.

No. 3 White Coat Street, Apartment 601 ago.

After Lumian knocked a few times, he saw Franca with Linen-Colored's long hair and wearing a lake blue silk nightgown opening the door.

"What happened this time?" This "Witch" asked with a smile and got out of the way.

Lumian didn't answer immediately. He looked around and asked, "Jenna isn't here?"

Franca unconsciously put away his smile:

"Are you here to see her? She doesn't need to sing tonight. She has gone home long ago."

Lumian nodded:

"That's good, lest you ask me to climb the outer wall and leave later."

"..." Franca's mouth twitched | "Are you here to laugh at me?"

After a simple prank, Lumian sat on the gray Long Sofa.

Just as he was about to speak, he had curled up into Armchair, causing the hem of his nightgown to slip up significantly. Franca said with a "tsk, tsk" smile, "You were not at Market District this afternoon, so you didn't see the good show."

"The police cleaned up all the places involving Gang. Brignais, Simon, Christo, Black were all involved in Police Headquarters. Almost A few were arrested by Official Beyonder and treated as typical examples. Fortunately, Gardner found the newly elected Hugues Artois and asked him to put pressure on the two major Church and Police Headquarters. After throwing out a few scapegoats, the matter was finally settled."

Hugues Artois is indeed related to Boss... Lumian laughed:

"You weren't caught?"

"I didn't go to those places today, and I played 'Fight Evil' with Jenna and my number one guy all afternoon. Why was I caught? So, there's nothing wrong with being lazy. My favorite saying is that lazy people are blessed with laziness." Franca responded hilariously.

"Never heard of it." Lumian asked casually, "Where's the saying?"

"I made it up." Franca replied nonchalantly.

Lumian thought about Franca's description just now and asked as if to verify his guess, "It was Jenna who suggested not going out in the afternoon and playing cards in the room?"

"How do you know?" Franca was quite surprised.

She looked Lumian up and down, her eyes becoming suspicious:

Couldn't it be Jenna who told him himself? They had so many communications in private?

Lumian did not hide anything and said calmly, "Charlie came to see me today, and Jenna happened to be there too. I learned from his mouth that Official Beyonder will join forces with Police Headquarters to do a big cleanup of Gang members of Market District this afternoon.

"I told Jenna to keep it secret so as not to affect Charlie. It seems that she is indeed very trustworthy and just dragged you into Apartment in her own way."

"No wonder you weren't here this afternoon." Franca suddenly realized.

She then felt a little complacent:

"Jenna still has my heart in his heart!"

After sighing with satisfaction, Franca asked vigilantly, "Why would Jenna come to you for the sake of He*tu*shu?"

"'Black Scorpion' Roger was killed. She felt that I, who always had trouble with Stinger Gang, was very suspicious." Lumian smiled.

Franca said half relieved and half amused, "'Aurora Order' actually took this matter on his back.

"Ever since I came to Trier, I would read in the newspapers every once in a while that something happened in a certain area, and the terrorist organization 'Aurora Order' claimed responsibility for it. Unexpectedly, it was finally our turn to enjoy such treatment. The follow-up investigation was misled, and no one doubted us."

"Aurora Order" should indeed be responsible for this matter... Lumian followed Franca and laughed a few words, then brought the topic back on track:

"I took the opportunity to participate in a Occult Gathering in the afternoon and got 'Pyromaniac' Potion Formula, and also got clues to the corresponding Main Ingredient."

"You're lucky." Franca's eyes widened slightly, "If it weren't for Intis, I would have doubted whether you were lying to me. That is, in Intis, 'Pyromaniac' Potion Formula is so common and easy to encounter."

Lumian made a request:

"Please help me pay attention to the blood of Fire Salamander, the powder of Magma Pyroxene and Red-Crowned Impatiens. They are Auxiliary Ingredient."

He did not mention Holy Star Lily because it is relatively common and can be found in larger flower shops.

"No problem." Franca asked in detail about the weight of each material, and finally said, "Do you still have enough money? I mean the money to buy Potion Main Ingredient."

In her opinion, "Pyromaniac"Potion Formula should have emptied Lumian's savings.

Lumian took advantage of the trend and said, "I was just going to ask if 'Harvest Sacrifice' was sold."

"How can it be so fast? It's only been a day! I haven't even had time to participate in any Occult Gathering." Franca paused and said, "If you are in a hurry for money, I can lend you some. Anyway, I don't need to think about the next Potion for a while."

"There's no rush." Lumian thought for a while and said.

His Auxiliary Ingredient has not been collected yet.

Franca estimated as follows. "According to my experience, the Negative Effect of 'Harvest Sacrifice' is difficult to avoid and cannot be sold too expensively, which is between 10,000 and 1.20,000 Felkine."

"When you need money, I can directly give you 6000 Felkine, just like I bought out 'Harvest Sacrifice'. In addition, I can also lend you two to thirty thousand Felkine, but you need to pay it back to me within three months."

"Okay." Lumian agreed without any politeness.

He immediately took out "Fallen Mercury" and said to Franca, "I still need to find someone who can repair Beyonder weapon."

Franca looked at the Dagger with the pattern layered Evil. https:// www•hetushu. com. com, asked in confusion, "What is the value of Beyonder weapon? The energy will be exhausted anyway."

"It's so useful, it can be used for a while." Lumian certainly can't say that he has a way to replenish energy for "Fallen Mercury".

Of course, that has to wait until he reaches the Sequence 6 level and is more able to withstand the influence of Corruption, otherwise the Termiboros guy will probably take the opportunity to cause trouble.

"Yes." Franca was deeply impressed by "Fallen Mercury"'s performance in the battle that killed "Black Scorpion" Roger, "I I will ask for you, but Beyonder weapon who is suspected to be Corruption, there should be no 'Artisan' who will take over, and they are afraid of having a bad impact on themselves."

"Artisan"...Beyonder that can repair Mystical Item and Beyonder weapon? After Lumian and Franca exchanged a few words, they left room 601, returned to Market Avenue, and entered Breeze Ballroom.

Although the time was close to midnight, it was still quite lively here. Lumian entered the financial office located in the corridor on the second floor. While opening the safe there, he asked the accountant and cashier on night shift:

"How many Cash are there now?"

The accountant is Lady in his thirties, wearing glasses and very polite.

She said with a little trepidation, "Almost 28,000 Felkine, plus some change."

At this time, Lumian had opened the door of the safe and saw the piles of Banknotes and the Coins that were shining with golden light.

He calculated it and said calmly, "Give me 1.20,000 Felkine."

"Huh?" The accountant and cashier made frightened sounds at the same time.

Although Mr. Charles is the protector of Breeze Ballroom, he cannot take away so many Cash in one go!

Accountant Lady winked at the younger cashier and asked her to go to the next door office to find manager Dance Hall manager René.

The operator designated by Gardner·Martin was wearing formal clothes. He looked at the safe and said, "Mr. Charles, why did you take away 1.20,000 Felkine?"

"Personal expenses." Lumian responded calmly.

René pondered for a few seconds and said, "No problem.

"In the past two years, Baron Brignelle took between 40,000 and 50,000 felkin in cash from the ballroom each year. However, during the previous handover, he took away 15,000 felkin that originally belonged to the first half of the year, and it is not yet the second half of the year. Mr. Charles, how about treating these 12,000 felkin as an advance?"

"Okay." Lumian doesn't care what name he uses, he only wants this 1.20,000 Felkine!

After putting those Cash into the cloth bag, Lumian breathed a sigh of relief silently.

The 30,000 Felkine to purchase "Pyromaniac" Beyonder Characteristic has almost been collected, and we are just waiting for the news of Auxiliary Ingredient!

--He now has a total of 26710 Felkine, and "Harvest Sacrifice" can still be worth 6,000.

Breeze Ballroom came out, and Lumian with a lot of Cash suddenly felt a little uneasy.

He was not afraid of being robbed, but he was worried that a conflict would break the money bag and Banknotes.

It has to be put in a safe place, and you can't keep it like this...Lumian walks along Market Avenue, planning to transfer to the Safe House rented at White Coat Street.

Not long after, he saw the brightly lit Market District Parliament Parliamentarian’s Office.

This is a four-story building with a classic khaki color. There is a Statues on each of the top two floors, namely "Sunbird" and "Giant Gears".

The celebration dinner is not over yet...Lumian shook his head in disdain.

He thought for a moment, sat in the shadows across the street, and observed the guests leaving Banquet Hall.

It is definitely not easy for Hugues Artois to be supported by Savoie Gang and Stinger Gang and praised by "Lady Moon". Some of the guests he invited may be "problem people" related to the conspiracy of "Iron and Blood Cross Order".

Time passed by, and more and more guests left Parliament Parliamentarian’s Office. Lumian did not find anyone suspicious. We could only confirm that most of them belonged to the upper class, and they were all well-dressed. Many of their faces had appeared in newspapers, big or small.

Suddenly, he saw a familiar figure.

It has a friendly temperament, fleshy cheeks, black sideburns with a few silver hairs, Eyes brown and reddish Gardner·Martin!

Savoie Gang's Boss Gardner·Martin!

Gardner, who was wearing Tailcoat and a dark bow tie, seemed to notice it. He suddenly turned his head and looked at the shadow where Lumian was sitting.

Lumian felt a slight thump in his heart unconsciously.

His thoughts whirled, he made an instant decision, stood up, and walked towards Gardner·Martin Past.

Gardner·Martin looked at him deeply, without showing any emotion.

"Good evening, Boss." After approaching, Lumian bowed his head and greeted.

Gardner·Martin asked casually, "What are you doing here?"

Lumian answered honestly:

"I came out of Breeze Ballroom and saw that Parliamentarian’s Office's dinner party was not over yet. I planned to see which guests Yuge Mr. Artois had invited, so as not to offend the wrong people in the future."

Gardner·Martin nodded gently and said calmly, "This is a good habit."

He immediately signaled to Lumian that he could leave, and he took Butler Faustino towards the approaching private carriage.

Lumian's heart moved, he followed him and said proactively, "Boss, I made an advance of 1.20,000 Felkine at the Dance Hall today."
