Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

What is the feathered snake in that picture?

After the "pale bone nail" gradually regained its composure, Esther pulled it out.Danced the whiter long sword in an arc in the air, and after confirming that there was nothing unusual about it, Esther stabbed it into her palm again, watching it turn into a pattern intertwined with silver threads and feathers again.

It's just that those feathers have become more lifelike. When Esther moved her palm, occasionally a little bit of dark green would appear, but it was not real, and it would make people who don't know its essence take it as their own illusion.

The feathers on the head of the giant skeleton crocodile gradually shrank and scattered, and the bright red flesh quickly eroded and spread upward.Esther hurriedly stepped on the place where she could land on the side of the skull, jumped back to the ground, avoided the blood scattered on the ground, and ran in the direction of Alexander.

"Miss Hamel...it's unbelievable, really. Is that a kind of luck?"

Alexander organized his words with a wry smile. Because of the dizziness caused by excessive spiritual consumption, after hitting the seed that gave birth to a huge flora, he could only lean against the tree trunk next to him for a short rest.

Fortunately, the monster was finally dealt with.

"Maybe, I've been lucky," Esther said with a smile.

She stretched out her hand to help the frail old gentleman up, and took the heavy box from his hand.When Alexander passed by the lantern, he took it off the branch and illuminated the path for the two of them.

"Don't we need to deal with the things left over from the battle?" Esther turned her head and glanced at the hill-like crocodile skeleton behind her, the messy and entangled plants growing into a huge ball, and the constant climbing on the skeleton disgusting flesh and blood.

Alexander shook his head: "It's okay, without the support of spirituality, the fake flesh magic can only last for an hour at most, and most of those plants will wither, and a small part may be left to take root in place."

Esther looked at the huge flora for a few more seconds. If it was placed in the world of the previous life, it would have become a spectacle, and it might be surrounded as a scenic spot or a park or something, and an entrance fee would be charged.

Since there is no need to deal with the follow-up, Esther thought, and all the light spots fell back to the top of her head, making Esther's silver hair dyed light cinnamon yellow again.Only a little silver remains on the inside of the sideburns, which is quite inconspicuous.

Seeing this scene, Alexander smiled and sighed: "I don't know if anyone has said that you are a strange person in every way, although it is impolite to say so."

Esther amusedly cooperated with Alexander's slightly staggering footsteps: "Then why do you still say that? If you mean these little guys, it's normal to be strange."

"Because you give me a strange feeling, full of fragmentation. Your eyes when you were immersed in the trial situation during the battle, it feels like two people when you chat like now."

Hearing these words, Esther's expression paused for a moment, and then she looked away from Alexander just now: "I am more focused during the battle, maybe it has something to do with being an official Extraordinary before."

Alexander chuckled lightly, but his voice became deeper and deeper because of his weakness: "Aha, you really saw it. Isn't it really testing me to say such things?"

Esther put on her friendly smile again: "Even without probing, I can get the corresponding reasoning results through observation of this kind of thing, and I have already guessed this."

Alexander nodded: "Let me think about it. First of all, you are from Ruen. Considering the church situation there, you are not a 'craftsman' who relies on magical items. You must be different from me. As for the Church of Storms, you should know better than me. .”

"Thinking about how they accept a female Extraordinary, it's inconceivable. That being said, there should be women among the Punishers... right?"

Because he was carrying the lantern, Alexander could only use the back of his hand to support the glasses that were sliding up and down the bridge of his nose: "At least I haven't seen it in the past few years at sea. The Church of the Eternal Sun of Intis is not compatible with the Church of the Storm, so I have no choice but to speak to the representative." The Punisher doesn't know much about it, so it's most likely that you are a Nighthawk."

Esther fell silent.The two moved forward in silence for half an hour, and Alexander finally recovered a little bit from the spiritual exhaustion, and was able to gather his strength to walk on his own, without the need for Esther to support him all the time.

Still halfway to shore.

"Your ability seems to be very special," Alexander said softly, "I'm more sensitive to this aspect because of the way. Their abilities seem to be restricted in some way, and they haven't been brought into full play to the extent they should be."

Esther stroked the loose strands of hair on her forehead twice: "Extraordinary abilities are actually quite strange, aren't they? They are not special cases, they have been with me since I became conscious."

She has seen enough strange things, such as ancient gods, or various monsters and evil spirits.

"If I hadn't seen that scene before, it would be hard for me to imagine that these light spots would be hidden in your hair, but I understand your indifference after the bone sword melted into your palm."

"Maybe it's just getting used to it. It's like what Emperor Roselle said, right? If you have too many lice, you won't feel itchy, and if you have too many debts, you won't feel worried."

Alexander smiled wryly and shook his head: "You should know that there are huge hidden dangers in this way, right? Not to mention that you yourself are still in the 'thief' pathway. If you were any Extraordinary, it would be difficult to accommodate an extra pathway's potion or Extraordinary characteristics in your body. Going crazy and out of control.

"Even if you have a special constitution, the unlimited ability to accommodate foreign objects in your body does not rule out the risk of losing control. Don't just because you have such a special ability... sorry, I'm used to preaching to others again. "

The smile on Esther's face was much more sincere: "No, thank you for your concern. It is normal to preach, after all, I am also a student in your language class."

"Hahaha... That's right, could it be that you came to us after getting off the boat for class?" Alexander shook his head, feeling amused by such a guess.

"Maybe that's it, it's the guidance of fate." Esther rubbed the pattern on the back of her hand twice, and the dark green flashed and disappeared under her fingertips.

"You really feel like Aaron to me. He sometimes acts as he pleases, letting the matter itself reach the most suitable result."

Alexander sighed, but this time he stopped talking.

They finally walked out of the woods, and followed the messy footprints in the forest to the beach. Big balls of foam surrounded the "Clover", and the captain held a lantern, illuminating the red coat on his shoulders.

"It seems that Captain Aaron has done his divination and knows that we will return safely."

"Thomas can also do divination, but he is not keen on it at all, which is the complete opposite of Aaron who relies on divination wholeheartedly." Alexander said with a smile.

"After all, personality is also a very important factor." Esther said casually.

She looked up at the lantern at the bow that shook twice, and waved her hand towards it.

They went back to the ship.

-

On the other end, Bayam.

In order to meet "Vice Admiral Iceberg", Klein took Danitz to the bar to make an arrogant appearance, and then asked Elland to buy a boat ticket to Dilinius Island, intending to divert to Graggs Island from there.

On the surface, "Gehrman" is still expressionless, but Klein is thinking about whether to write another letter to the fellow. Since he is leaving Bayam, maybe he should inform her, lest she come back when.

Klein has not responded to the letter that Esther sent a few days ago.It doesn't seem very good not to reply all the time, telling her about her next plan is not a waste of this gold coin for sending a letter.

The mailing fee of one gold coin is really expensive, but it is very convenient to send letters regardless of the distance.

Now that he had this idea, Klein returned to the hotel, went back to his room to find a pen and paper, and wrote down his upcoming itinerary on the paper.

Well, you don't need to tell Esther about finding the red-haired Elaine, she has provided me with enough clues, and the next step is to see if there is any information from the Poseidon believers near the Intis embassy.

The underground gods would have such a convenient intelligence network, which was not expected by Klein at first, but it helped him a lot.

However, it is impossible for Klein to tell Esther about probing the "Vice Admiral Disease" and searching for the documents of the god of death. It is also a kind of "tradition" to report good news and not bad news.

After writing the letter, Klein roughly browsed it and confirmed that there was nothing too worrying.It will take some time for him to completely digest the "Faceless Man" potion, and he can make an appointment with Esther later, and ask her to help him steal the pollution on the "Eye of All Black" and use it as a "secret". The main ingredient of the potion "Master of Puppets".

Klein folded up the written letter, stuffed it into an envelope, and set up a spiritual wall and a ritual of summoning the messenger in the room.

Fortunately, he also knows a "thief" who has a very friendly relationship. Otherwise, this matter will have to go to the Tarot Society to seek public opinions. When the "world" circles around and still entrusts Esther, it is better to solve it in private.

Ms. Messenger should also be able to help deliver things, right?

"I!

"I call in my name:

"A spirit that wanders in the void, a friendly creature that can be driven, and a messenger that belongs exclusively to Gehrman Sparrow."

In the flickering candlelight, Reinette Tinekerr, carrying four heads, walked out of the expanding flames.

"Do you want to..." "Send a letter to..." "To..." "Who?"

"To the lady who sent you over last time, the 'light' you called. Can you find her location?"

To Klein's surprise, the Miss Messenger shook her four heads at the same time:

"No..." "There is interference..." "No way..." "Find her."

Klein thought for two seconds, and suddenly remembered that he still had another item: "If I have something from her, can I track her down?"

"It depends..." "What is it..." "Not necessarily..." "It's useful."

Klein pulled out a broken peace knot.

"Is this thing okay?"

Miss Messenger looked at this thing for a moment, then nodded:

"This..." "Yes..." "One..." "Gold coin."

Klein handed over the gold coin, the letter, and the safety knot, and let Miss Messenger's three heads catch them respectively.

Before Reinette returned to the crack in the spiritual world, Klein hurriedly asked again: "Then can you return the peace knot to me after you deliver the letter? I can wait for the next letter to be delivered."

The only head with an empty mouth answered him: "Okay."

Under Klein's gaze, the figure in a complicated long skirt returned to the spirit world and disappeared into his room.

Miss Messenger said there was interference, did it come from Esther, or the "Clover" she was on, or "Zoya"?

Fortunately, this safety knot can be used to track her and can be recycled.

Klein thought about the fairy tale of the City of Silver about the skylark, and couldn't help but wonder if the olive branch rings, thorn rings and garlands in the fairy tales ever existed in reality.

Do they still exist?And in whose hands?
