Possible Encounters

Hearing Termiboros's rhetorical question, Lumian was shocked.

He had never doubted before that there was something wrong with Flamang staying in Golden Rooster Inn for so long and not being killed by Montsouris Ghosts.

From Lumian's point of view, Flamang's immediate family members and wife have been killed, and it's just a matter of whether it's his turn sooner or later. According to the last visit to Magazine Agency's headquarters in "Spiritism" Old Publications Library" looked at the summary of the situation. There was a case where Past was killed eleven months after meeting Montsouris Ghosts. Although the situation of Flamang is rare, it is by no means unique.

After a moment, Lumian remembered an unusual detail in this matter:

The other victims were all killed by Montsouris Ghosts within that year, and Flamang was the one who met Montsouris Ghosts from Last Year, and later spent the New Year under the protection of Clergy.

Although it was indeed less than a year from the time he met Montsouris Ghosts to the time he left a suicide note and hanged himself, but compared to other cases, this had never happened before on New Year's Eve.

"Is it this 'Earthblood' ore that protected Flamang, causing Montsouris Ghosts to delay action again and again, breaking his own habits?" Lumian asked Termiboros again, suppressing his voice.

This is a real Angel. Although it is perfectly sealed and cannot penetrate the power, his vision, knowledge and personality alone are enough for him to see through the truth of many things.

Termiboros replied with a majestic and layered voice, "It makes Montsouris Ghosts fear and disgust, but it does not have any power.

"For you, this might be a Key."

"Key?" Lumian instantly had many associations, "Key who opened Fourth Epoch that Trier somewhere secret room?"

Termiboros said in an unusually rich voice, "You will definitely enter the Trier of Fourth Epoch, where your Calamity will be, and where your fate will be."

"Instead of waiting passively, it is better to actively explore and be more fully prepared based on the feedback from each exploration."

"Was your intention revealed too quickly?" Lumian couldn't help laughing, "Do you want me to die quickly? Then use Underground's special ability to block the signal of seal collapse and ensure that you can escape safely without encountering siege?"

Thinking of "Shadow Tree", Fourth Epoch and Trier were not deeply rooted, and Lumian had no interest in exploring Underground.

After saying that, without waiting for Termiboros to respond, he left the room, went to the nearest Washroom, and washed off the Mysticism makeup on his face.

After removing the hidden danger, Lumian sat in front of Wooden Table and started writing a letter.

The matter of Flamang and "Earthblood" ore is obviously abnormal. You can't just say what Termiboros says. You must ask "Magician" Lady for advice!

If you don't have enough brains and completely believe in Evil God Angel's words, you will suffer a big loss sooner or later, and even pay for it with your own life!

Termiboros's voice sounded again:

"That 'Magician', that so-called 'Tarot Club', are they really trustworthy?

"They sealed me in your body instead of finding a way to kill me. I'm afraid they want to use you to do bad things.

"They threw you directly into the center of the storm Trier, but they didn't care about your situation and didn't ask. Don't you think there's a problem? This is definitely not something you can explain because they want to train you."

Lumian smiled, sighed and said, "Have you never Deceit or Instigation relied on others to achieve your goals purely on your own character and ability?

"Would you like me to buy a copy of "The Art of Persuasion" and read it every day for your study?

"Let me tell you, I wouldn't have been fooled like this when I was in my early tenth year. Now I know very well who I can rely on, who my friends are, who my enemies are, and who I need to be wary of."

Termiboros didn't speak anymore, and seemed to be seriously considering whether to learn the art of language.

Lumian quickly wrote a letter to "Magician" Lady, and handed it to the summoned Puppet Messenger along with the piece of "Earthblood" ore.

Not long after, "Magician" Lady replied and returned the mineral specimen:

"I'm glad you were alert enough and didn't completely believe Termiboros's words.

"But part of what He said is indeed correct. This ore itself does not have power. It only contains some breath and characteristics of unknown origin that have almost dissipated. It cannot help you. But I saw that at some point in Future, it will bring you some encounters, which may be good or bad. It is currently in a very Chaos state, and I cannot give an accurate interpretation.

"Termiboros deliberately misleads you in that the corresponding encounter may not be in Fourth Epoch or Trier, but may also be in other areas of Underground.

"Afterwards, if you are prepared and want to see what kind of encounter you will have, then bring it with you every time you enter Underground Trier. If you don't want to take the risk yet, remember to put it in the room.

"The interpretation of Symbolic Elements that I mentioned last time has come to fruition. A friend said that he is very good at this aspect. After he finishes his recent work, I will take you to see him..."

Lumian's hand holding the letter suddenly burst out of Crimson Flames, burning the Paper in his palm into ashes.

Based on the statements of "Magician", Lady and Termiboros, he truly believed that the "Earthblood" ore in front of him could inspire some kind of Mutation somewhere in Underground Trier, which might bring about an adventure and might bury his life.

There is no need to take risks just yet... Lumian muttered in his heart, having a clear enough understanding of his current strength.

After becoming Sequence 7 "Pyromaniac", he no longer has any shortcomings in melee combat, long-range attack, hand-to-hand combat, or using spells, and is truly separated from Ordinary Person category, but "Hunter" is obviously more focused on conventional combat, lacking some weirder abilities and ways to deal with them, while Underground Trier is famous for its weirdness in many areas!

Lumian plans to wait for the initial digestion of "Pyromaniac" Potion and obtain "Contracted One" Gift, and then based on the Underground Trier information collected at that time, consider whether to take the "Earthblood" ore for a spin.

It would be better if "Shadow Tree Branch" could be made into Mystical Item before then.

After gathering his thoughts, Lumian brought the mineral specimen to White Coat Street and hid it in his Safe House.

While the Sunlight in the afternoon had not subsided, he looked through Witchcraft Notes of Aurora, and combined the teachings of Franca with his own experience of using the Flames spell to analyze it paragraph by paragraph, looking for problems.

After more than an hour, Lumian saw the part that summoned Spirit World Creature and signed Contract.

He suddenly remembered "White Paper", Older Sister Aurora's Contract Creature "White Paper".

That fragile Spirit World life can carry some ability of the Contract person.

"I don't know if the Contract between 'White Paper' and Aurora has been lifted. According to the content of the note, in addition to holding the corresponding Ritual, Contract can only be lifted if one of the two parties dies completely.

"What a pity, Contract Creature can only be summoned by itself, and cannot be summoned by others like Messenger. Otherwise, I can use 'White Paper' to see if Aurora is completely dead..."

"Hmm... will there be information left by Aurora in 'White Paper'?"

Lumian While thinking about it, his thoughts suddenly turned to another issue that he had not noticed before:

"Since Aurora wakes up occasionally, join me in cutting Little Blue Book, piecing together letters, and asking for official help. Since her first reaction in the dream is to summon 'Curly-Haired Baboon Research Society' Messenger of 'Vice President'Hella' seeks the other party's opinion, so why doesn't she occasionally summon That One when she is awake? Messenger, tell 'Hella'Lady about the difficulties you encountered?

"'Hella'Lady clearly had no understanding of the situation in his earliest reply to me.

"What limits Aurora from making such an attempt?

"Or, she did summon Messenger, and 'Hella' was lying!"

Lumian's eyes narrowed slightly. He lacked the corresponding memory and couldn't figure out which side the problem was.

He is not too suspicious of "Hella" at the moment and thinks there are other reasons.

You must know that Messenger of "Hella" knows very well where he lives. If That One Lady is really involved in the Cordou Village incident and plays a disgraceful role, she will definitely hope to kill the last "survivor" without leaving any hidden dangers. However, up to now, not only has she not made any substantive attempts, but she has also provided knowledge and suggestions in a friendly manner.

For a second, Lumian wanted to write down the question just now and send it directly to "Hella" to see what kind of answer she would give, but in the end he restrained his impulse, fearing that it would expose the king's new clothes and bring bad development.

He decided to chat with Franca first and hear what this teammate who was in both "Curly-Haired Baboon Research Society" and "Tarot Club" said about "Hella".

If she feels that "Hella" is trustworthy and has told her Major Arcana about "Curly-Haired Baboon Research Society", then Lumian will ask "Magician" Lady to pay attention to her side in advance, and then write to ask "Hella".

He forced himself to calm down and continued to study Aurora's witchcraft and calligraphy notes. It was not until evening that he left White Coat Street, transferred to Market Avenue, and entered his own Breeze Ballroom.

"Good evening, Boss!" Greetings came from all directions, Lumian nodded slightly, and walked up to the second floor with Louis and Sakota.

Before he Future had time to sit down in Café, the Dance Hall manager René came over.

The thin middle-aged man pressed his hand on his chest and saluted. "Mr. Charles, Mr. Martin wants you to go to Springwater Street to find him at ten o'clock tomorrow morning."

Boss is looking for me? Lumian is both surprised and happy.

He was surprised that Gardner·Martin actually sent someone to look for him when nothing happened in the past few days. What he was happy about was that he had the opportunity to have more contact with Gardner·Martin, thereby gaining his trust and joining "Iron and Blood Cross Order".
