Hearing Jenna's complaint, Franca chuckled secretly and said, "This is normal. As long as you master 'Acting Method', before Mid-Sequence, promotion is very fast, and the speed of saving money often cannot keep up with the expenditure on purchasing Potion Formula and corresponding materials."

"You don't have to worry about money. 'Assassin' Pathway's Sequence 7 is a qualitative change node that can greatly improve your combat ability and life-saving ability. You also know, there may be a Calamity next, and only by becoming 'Witch', plus 'Bloodsucker’s Arrow', can you hope to survive and protect the people you want to protect."

Jenna was silent for a few seconds, first nodded slowly, and then said "fuck":

"You Instigation me without any ability!"

"Haha, this is to show facts and make sense. Now I will give you the Potion Formula of 'Witch', and we can start collecting it." Franca said as he returned to Coffee Table, spread out Paper, and started writing quickly.

Jenna stood up and stood next to her, looking at the Intis language Vocabulary taking shape one by one.

At the same time, Jenna silently calculated the debt in his mind:

"Including the remuneration from 'Purifier' and the income from Underground Singer, I have saved nearly 10,000 Felkine.

"According to Franca and Charles, Sequence 7's Potion Formula is worth thirty to forty thousand Felkine, depending on whether it is common. At the minimum, I have to owe Franca another thirty thousand Felkine, a total of sixty thousand...

"Even if I sell 'Bloodsucker’s Arrow', I won't be able to make up for it. Then I have to buy various materials for 'Witch' Potion, which will cost more than thirty thousand Felkine... Damn it! No wonder many Beyonder among those Occult Gathering behave very poor and like to care!"

Jenna The more I calculate, the more my head hurts.

If Potion hadn't brought tangible Change and intuitive capabilities, she would have doubted whether she had fallen into a scam. How come the harder she worked, the more she owed?

In the past, their family often felt Despair when faced with debts of several thousand Felkine. Now, she owes Franca 60,000, and it will continue to grow in the foreseeable future.

Even if all the Cash and assets she owns are taken into account, there is still a gap of tens of thousands of Felkine.

Gritting his teeth, Jenna decided to put these worries behind him and wait until he became "Witch" and was promoted to Sequence 7 before considering it again.

Soon, Franca wrote the recipe for "Witch" Potion:

"Sequence 7: Witch;

"Main Ingredient: All the blood of Black Abyss Demon Fish, the eggs of Agate Peacock;

"Auxiliary Ingredient: 80 ml of Pure Water, 5 drops of Golden Mandrake juice, three scales of Shadow Lizard, 10 drops of Daffodil juice."

After handing the Paper with the formula written on it to Jenna, Franca said thoughtfully, "Don't collect these materials from the Occult Gathering we share. Get them from the party you found and joined and 'Purifier'. Well, please ask Charles for help."

She was still in the assessment period of the Witch Sect, and she was worried that there was an informant from the Concealment organization in the Occult Gathering she participated in. At that time, if Participant collected materials about "Witch" Potion, it would inevitably arouse suspicion.

Comparatively speaking, the probability of getting materials from "Purifier" is higher. After all, Official Beyonder has disposed of a lot of "Witch", and there must be corresponding Beyonder Characteristic left.

Of course, Franca will also help inquire and collect on "Curly-Haired Baboon Research Society", but we can't tell Jenna in advance.

"Okay." Jenna probably knows about the existence of the Witch Sect and their malice towards wild "Assassin" like themselves.

When Jenna memorized the formula of "Witch" Potion, Franca asked with concern, "Has your brother left Trier?"

After discovering that those Evil God organizations were unusually quiet and getting Major Arcana's approval, Lumian and Franca suggested that Jenna and her brother Julian leave Trier and live temporarily in another Intis city for half a year to see what happens.

Jenna expressed his attitude fiercely, hoping to stay with his companions, and promised to improve his Sequence as soon as possible.

This was the main reason why she accepted the gift from Franca without hesitation for too long.

As for my brother Julian, Jenna really doesn't want him to be involved in another Mysticism Calamity. I want him to live well. He has been busy Instigation him leaving Trier during this period.

"Leucer Harbor went there last weekend." Jenna smiled unconsciously.

Leucer Harbor is located at the entrance of the Serenzo River and is one of the main ports for Trier goods to go out to sea.

Franca was surprised and happy for his companion:

"Have you Instigation succeeded in defeating that stubborn and stubborn guy?"

Without disclosing the true situation.

"No." Jenna shook his head calmly, with a bit of pride in his expression, "I changed Instigation's target, and I found that the shipyard where Julian worked had a branch in Leucer Harbor. So using the 'Instigation' ability, they asked their supervisor to propose a technical personnel exchange and learning plan between Factory, which lasted for six months, and then spent money to add a quota and put Julian on the list.

"I just finished this Instigation and then digested Potion. Dog Shit, Julian didn't listen to me no matter what I said. He regretted it the next day after finishing 'Instigation'. As soon as his supervisor gave the order, he started packing his luggage!"

After scolding his brother a few words, Jenna pursed his lips, looked at Franca, and deliberately added, "Trier to Leucer Harbor's skills The technician was Past last weekend, and the part from Leucer Harbor to Trier will be placed half a year later to avoid possible Calamity.

"Franca, why don't we find a way to get more people to leave Trier for a while?"

"They don't believe it even if I tell you." Franca said "Hey", "Moreover, there are more people leaving, and those Evil God organizations may notice it and start taking action in advance. If Official Beyonder is not ready by then, there will be even more casualties."

What Franca didn't say was that, combined with the few words of "Judgement" Lady and the information mastered by Charles, on the ground Trier exists to seal the underground Trier. Everyone here is "contributing" their strength. If too many people leave, the seal and the book will probably fail, and all the remaining citizens will die.

Jenna was silent for a while and did not dwell on this topic anymore.

Her upbringing and experience in the past six months have long taught her to accept the cruel reality. All she can do is try her best to save some within a reasonable range.

After more than ten seconds, Jian Na said thoughtfully, "When I 'instigated' the supervisor to propose the exchange learning plan, many nearby factories had similar arrangements, so I had examples to give, and it was successful without being too difficult.

"Looking back now, isn't it Official Beyonder who secretly organized it to reduce the population of Market District as much as possible?"

"It's possible." Franca thought for a few seconds and closed his mouth hesitantly.

What she wanted to say was "It could also be done by 'Tarot Club' or Church of the Fool." Major Arcana, "Justice" and Lady in the field of "Spectator" are very suitable for doing similar things.

The reason Franca didn't say anything was that she hadn't told Jenna that she and Charles believed in Mr. "The Fool".

She originally had this arrangement and planned to take Jenna to "visit" Church of the Fool in Lavigny Docks, but after entering Witch Sect's sight, she did not dare to do so.

Well, we can only let Charles take Jenna to Lavigny Docks. If she can Convert "Mr. The Fool", the follow-up will be much safer... Franca's thoughts turned to Lumian.

On a Four-Wheeled, Four-Seater Carriage that was driving between woods and farmland, Lumian, who was wearing a casual formal suit, looked at the Golden harvesting outside the window, and his thoughts went to nowhere.

This more than a month has been the most leisurely period of time for him in the past six months, but he has not enjoyed a similar leisurely mood at all, seizing every opportunity to digest "Pyromaniac" Potion.

This includes going to Island District Grand Morgue helped "cremate" Corpse for the abandoned large garbage "Funeral", and went to Underground to threaten people passing by with Flames The smuggling team used a fire to successfully obtain insurance compensation for some small businessmen in trouble, tracked down several wanted criminals and turned them into charred corpses, and ignited a trend of thinking about leaving Trier to pursue opportunities in surrounding cities...

This series of actions makes Lumian only one step away from completely digesting "Pyromaniac" Potion. It may be completed in another half month, maybe a week, or even less time.

Today, Lumian was invited by Count Puyver to be his guest, Red Swan Castle.

This member of the Sauron Family held five parties in Past in more than a month, once at Castle, once at Hunting, twice at Café for chatting, and once at the masked Ball in an abandoned house.

Lumian participated every time, but nothing happened. The only abnormality was that Puyfer·Soren never played King Cake Game again.

Where is the test that Gardner·Martin mentioned? Could it be a test this time? Cave Association's group did not show up again, did they believe what I said? Lumian took his eyes back from the farmland near the harvest and thought about today's invitation.

What he was more curious about was that Gardner·Martin said that he would secretly watch every gathering held by Count Puyver. So where would he hide now?

In the afternoon Sunlight light, the carriage arrived at its destination.

Lumian looked up at the beige Castle stained with ancient blood, passed through the heavy door and the wide atrium, and arrived at the large living room on the first floor, which was covered with thick dark red carpets and elegantly decorated.

Puyfer·Soren, who was wearing a red velvet jacket, was chatting at the entrance and came directly with a guest to welcome him.

Lumian glanced over, suddenly a little frozen.

The guest That One who was following Count Puyver was someone he had not expected.

The man was dressed in Hunting Attire, his hair seemed to be dyed red, and his brown eyebrows and eyes were very sharp. He looked like Albus, another member of "Iron and Blood Cross Order".

Among the "Iron and Blood Cross Order" members who belong to Gardner·Martin and "Chief", Lumian basically knows their apparent identities and what they are doing. Only this Albus is mysterious and rarely appears at Market District. He only comes to have a meal at every party.

"Who is this?" Lumian did not hide his doubts.

Is this to help you complete your mission?

Puyfer·Soren introduced with a smile, "A new friend, he will often attend our gatherings in the future."

Having said this, Puyfer glanced at Albus, who had an unflattering expression, and said with a smile, "His full name is:

"Albus·Medici."
