The strange theft

Looking at the open Tinplate cabinet, Lumian has a ridiculous and unreal feeling:

The thief entered the house. He did not take the most valuable "Torture" gloves, nor did he turn over the Aurora and Witchcraft Notes to see if there were any banknotes inside. He just took away a mineral specimen that did not look like a gem at all.

Leaving aside the issue of traps, if the thief is a real "Thief" with Extraordinary Ability, then he will definitely not let go of the gloves with unique materials and strong abilities. If he is just an ordinary thief, it is impossible for him to just take Earthblood Ore, and he will even throw this seemingly worthless item on the ground.

All this made Lumian suspect that Thief had only one purpose in breaking into the house:

Take that Earthblood Ore!

The other party clearly knew what was special about the mineral specimen and tried to take advantage of it!

"Termiboros, who stole Earthblood Ore?" Lumian couldn't find the suspect after thinking about it.

Except for dealing with Guillaume·Béné a few days ago, when he took out Earthblood Ore and handed it to Franca, he kept the mineral specimen in Safe House at other times and never carried it with him so as not to be watched.

Of course, the thief may have used "Divination" or "Prophecy" to narrow down the area, search each room, and finally find the target item.

Termiboros's majestic and layered voice suddenly sounded:

"I don't know."

I don't know...Lumian was shocked.

This answer itself is meaningless, but when spoken from Termiboros's mouth, it can mean many things.

Although Termiboros is sealed in Lumian's body and cannot reveal any power, he is Angel after all, Angel in the Fate field. Even if he only relies on Lumian's eyes and Destiny, he can still find many Low-Sequence Beyonder Undetectable problems and traces.

And now, He says He doesn't know!

This shows that the person who stole Earthblood Ore is definitely not simple, and may involve high-level forces, originating from a certain Concealment organization or Evil God Cult!

Hey, I have to write a letter and tell "Magician" Lady about this. After all, she had foreseen that Earthblood Ore would bring me some good or bad encounters. As a result, the things were lost before the encounters came...Lumian originally didn't want to trouble Major Arcana. To him, Earthblood Ore was not a very valuable item. The application scenarios were very narrow, so if it was lost, it would be lost. But once the problem becomes weird, he cannot take it lightly.

In Mysticism World, carelessness will often receive a bloody lesson!

Frankly speaking, Lumian now has neither the anger for losing his property nor the motivation to find the mineral specimens. Although Earthblood Ore may bring him some opportunities, it is too ethereal, not clear enough, and has no substance for him to pay attention to and cherish.

Moreover, "Magician" Lady said that there is a possibility of bad luck, and Lumian feels that losing it will reduce the risk.

He checked Safe House again, and after confirming that all traps were untouched and only Earthblood Ore was missing, he sat down and started writing a letter.

This time, the summoned "Puppet" Messenger was no longer as cold as last time, and no longer felt like he was suppressing strong emotions.

In just a few minutes, "Magician" Lady replied with a brief letter:

"There is indeed a problem with this matter. I can't identify the person who stole Earthblood Ore. If you are not afraid, you can go to the door of 'Different from the Rest' Dance Hall and ask anyone who wears Monocle on the right eye. Even if they did not do it, they should know who the suspect is. If you think this is too risky, then wait a little longer. Someone will help you ask after a while."

"Different from the Rest" Dance Hall... Also, the Sequence that is Swindler is "Thief"... Can those who wear Monocle control all thieves involved in the entire Trier with extraordinary powers? Lumian muttered silently.

Witchcraft Notes of Aurora mentioned that "Thief" is one of Divine Pathway's Sequence 9, the one above it is "Swindler", and the one above it is "Cryptologist".

After thinking for a while, Lumian decided to wait for a while and wait for someone to help him ask. Anyway, he was not in a hurry to use Earthblood Ore.

When he thinks of "Different from the Rest" Dance Hall, the Archipelago liar Monet who wears Monocle, and the Swindlers who have the same look as him, he feels hairy in his heart and numb in his scalp. He tries not to come into contact with them if he can.

After burning the letter paper, Lumian turned his attention to the Tinplate cabinet where Aurora's Witchcraft Notes and "Torture" gloves and other items were stored.

This Safe House is no longer safe, they must be moved to another place.

"'Torture' is carried with you. If you can carry it with you, take it with you. If you can, sell it. If you can't, find another Safe House... Aurora's Witchcraft Notes and the gold, uh, find a big bank and rent an unnamed safe to store it... Lease will not renew the lease if it is full..." Lumian quickly came up with an idea.

In fact, he could neither take it with him nor want to sell it. Apart from Aurora, Witchcraft Notes and the accumulated gold, he only had the five Ritual Fur. He had to find a new home for them. Of course, for him, he also had to prepare another Safe House.

After considering these things, Lumian wrote a letter to "Hella".

He said that he knew the approximate location of "Samaritan Woman Spring" from a certain Concealment channel, and the provider of the information asked him to enter Underground and get a bottle of real "Samaritan Woman Spring".

Writing this, Lumian suddenly felt a little confused:

It seems that he does not need to be directly involved in this matter. He can Commission"Hella" ask her to help bring out a bottle of spring water.

"'Justice'Lady shouldn't have thought of this, but what she said is that I have to go to Fourth Level of the Catacombs by myself... In her opinion, the probability of success in finding 'Samaritan Woman Spring' and taking away the spring water is not high just by relying on 'Hella'Lady. I must provide assistance?

"What's special about me? Apart from the Angel sealed on my body, Sequence is not that high...

"'Hella'Lady Sequence is relatively high. It is relatively dangerous to be close to 'Samaritan Woman Spring' and it is easy to go crazy. I am responsible for monitoring her status and waking her up in time?

"I used to think that 'Hella' Lady was at least Sequence 4, otherwise she wouldn't have said that she could solve Cordou Village's problems before coming to Ritual. Now it seems that she has not become Half-God, otherwise, she should not be able to enter. Enter Fourth Level of the Catacombs, let alone get close to 'Samaritan Woman Spring'... Does she have a '1' level Sealed Artifact or a Mystical Item equivalent to Saint?" Lumian sorted out the whole thing and probably made some guesses and judgments.

He continued to write letters, using the request of the intelligence provider as an excuse to clearly state that he wanted to enter the Ancient Tomb Chamber in person.

Passing by Summoning Ritual, the skull head made of pure silver and exuding soft light took away the letter.

Not long after, Messenger sent a reply from "Hella":

"No problem, we'll meet in front of the Empire of Death gate at four o'clock tomorrow afternoon."

Huh...Lumian breathed out, his body trembling slightly.

This is both excitement and fear.

He has always had a spirit of adventure and experimentation, and the pair of Couple that mysteriously disappeared inside Catacombs left a deep impression on him.

The next morning, Springwater Street Number 11.

Lumian dutifully came to the Villa of Gardner·Martin and reported to him the details of the meeting with Count Puyver and other "Black Cat" members.

Gardner·Martin, who was more energetic than usual, sat behind Desk and said happily, "Although you said you have no artistic talent, your origin determines that you can chat with them. This is why I sent you to find Albus.

"I was originally worried that you wouldn't show enough generosity, but you did a good job and sponsored them 4000 Felkine for the first time."

The implication of this "Chief" of "Iron and Blood Cross Order" is that, Lumian, as the younger brother of the best-selling author Aurora Li, you have no artistic talent. What you hear with your ears and see with your eyes will not lack the scandals, rumors, grudges, and grudges in the literary and artistic circles.

"What I don't understand is why that King Cake Game made me feel dangerous. I did Nightmare several times last night." Lumian went straight to the point.

Gardner·Martin nodded thoughtfully:

"This is because Puyfer is special. He is very similar to That One Ancestors Vermonda and has a close blood relationship. Many key steps can be omitted when performing Ritual."

"Did he That One Ancestors become Evil Spirit? After hundreds of years, Past can still accept sacrifices." Lumian did not mention what Mr. K said, and used normal people's logic to speculate and ask questions.

Gardner·Martin said seriously, "This is what you want to investigate when you approach Puyfer. Don't worry, King Cake Game, as long as you don't participate once every two or three days, in addition to doing some Nightmare, there won't be any side effects. Well, keep that kind of Danger Sense and don't become a 'king'. It's easier for you to become a 'king' than anyone other than Puyfer. If you don't have the confidence to make the right choice, let Puyfer choose first."

"Iron and Blood Cross Order" wants to find out the whereabouts of Vermonda·Soren, who have been mysteriously missing for hundreds of years? Haha, why didn't you tell me the danger of King Cake Game in advance and remind me of the last option? Lumian suspects that Gardner·Martin didn't tell me before because he wanted to use himself to confirm a certain key point.

In the afternoon, Underground is not too far away from Trier Opera House, and Quarry Cavern needs to be reached through a hidden gap.

Franca and Jenna, who were wearing half-face masks, once again saw "Warlock" who was That One wearing Black Robe.

He is the Commission person who reported the disappearance of Deep Valley Monastery Gatekeeper.

Franca looked around, looked at the man dressed as That One Warlock, and said in a deliberately hoarse voice, "We have made some gains in investigating the disappearance of Deep Valley Monastery Gatekeeper, and we would like to communicate with you privately."

The man was silent for more than ten seconds, nodded and said, "Okay."

Skeleton Host, who was wearing Iron-Colored Mask, immediately led the man, Franca, and Jenna into a "Conversation Room" deliberately separated from the edge of Quarry Cavern.

There was still an hour before the appointed time, so Lumian carried Carbide Lamp and entered Underground Trier corresponding to Market District.
