I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

Chapter 85 841 The watch must be broken

The tens of thousands of expenses that Lloyd spends today are nothing to an enterprising transcendent. They are still at the level of 'light consumption'.

There are more places to burn money later. The higher the rank, the more expensive it is. It is so expensive that even powerful people like the presiding judge are reminding young people to remember to save money.

Unless you are willing to lie down with peace of mind and have enough patience to apply and wait, waiting for the higher-ups to issue the decision slowly.

Lloyd didn't have the patience to wait for a year and a half. As a progressive young man with higher education, he naturally wanted to take the initiative into his own hands.

So he needs to make money, make a lot of money, and the White Knight's modification plan is a good opportunity.

He has even considered the specific plan, and it is definitely not as simple as selling a formula.

Of course, we still have to wait until the effectiveness and feasibility of the new plan are specifically verified before we can consider its follow-up.

Andrew promised to deliver the goods to your door within three days, but he had to wait patiently first.

So Lloyd went to the library again, planning to continue studying [Reverse Divination] that he had not finished yesterday.

Metis appeared in her favorite administrator position again today, still drunk and unconscious, lying on the table and falling asleep early in the morning.

Lloyd didn't want to disturb her, but just as he was passing by, he saw Metis's hand move, and a bell that could automatically ring appeared on the table.

Lloyd smiled and accepted the offer. Although he didn't plan to [visit the saint] today, it was still good for reading and studying.

So I borrowed the book I wanted to read back to the office, arranged the ritual in a familiar manner, and started today's study.

[Ding~Skill Fragments +1]

[Ding~Skill Fragments +1]

[Ding~ Enough skill fragments have been obtained, the skill level has been improved, Divination LV3 → LV4]

Divination has been upgraded to another level. In addition to the original [Simple Divination] and [Media Divination] that have become stronger, of course there is also the newly learned [Reverse Divination].

It's just that he has stuffed the black knight into an anonymous letter and sent it away, so he can't use this new function now.

Instead, you can try the enhanced [Media Divination] to see how your sister is doing.

Lloyd then took out the ancient pocket watch, wound it for a small half turn, and then waited for the three hands to rotate two or three times before stopping.

"Hmm...the results tend to be 'positive', 'busy', 'high morale', and...huh?"

The three pointers that had been fixed suddenly began to rotate erratically, sometimes forward, sometimes backward, and the speed was so fast that afterimages could be drawn.

After several seconds, the three hands stopped and stopped at their previous positions again.

Lloyd frowned and stretched out his hand to rub his chin.

This is obviously some kind of omen, and it is the first time that this additional omen is triggered when using [Media Divination].

"How should we interpret this? My sister is so busy that she can't remember the time?"

"No... when interpreting omens, you should think in an optimistic direction. Maybe my sister is in a happy state and feels that time is flying by?"

"It's not right, it doesn't seem right either..."

Lloyd tried to interpret this omen, trying very hard to think in an optimistic direction, but he couldn't convince himself. The more he thought about it, the more anxious and worried he became.

Fortunately, he quickly realized the problem, shook his head vigorously, and forced himself to calm down.

"No, I have committed two major taboos in divination. I am too impatient and too concerned about the accuracy of the results..."

"As for this wave of omens... it must be the broken watch!"

As he said that, he stood up and put the most convenient dagger-type psychic blade on his waist. After thinking about it again, he turned around and took off the command knife hanging on the wall as a decoration, and prepared to go to the editorial department. have a look.

Rather than believing in occult methods such as divination, it is better to confirm with your own eyes.

Lloyd hurried to Wei Ya's office and said hello, saying that he was going out to find advanced ritual materials.

"Well, be careful."

Wei Ya reminded him, not doubting his presence and not stopping him.

In the position of executioner, as long as he completed his daily work or had others help him complete his work, no one would care about him the rest of the time when he was drunk like Métis.

"Meow meow meow!"

The little milk cat that was rolling and acting cute next to him also became energetic and quickly waved his little paws at Lloyd, indicating that he should take him with him.

Lloyd then stuffed the little kitten into his pocket and hurried to the editorial office where Everol was.

Relying on the help of the "advanced subway", he quickly arrived at Laohuaishu Street in Nancheng District.

This is an old street with a lively atmosphere. It is now lunch time, and there are more pedestrians on the street, and there is an alluring fragrance everywhere.

Lloyd followed the street signs and quickly found a three-story building, and then found an office on the second floor, where he happened to see his sister burying her head in a desk.

Then he suddenly raised his head and brushed the stupid hair on top of his head.

"Huh? How weird?"

Everol tilted her head slightly, showing a cute and puzzled expression, and then turned her head to look.

"Xiao Yi? Why are you here?"

"I suddenly missed you, so I came over to see you. I also want to visit your editorial office."

Lloyd said as he walked into this slightly narrow office.

In fact, the area here was originally quite wide, but there were too many things piled up, including bookshelves, filing cabinets, and a few lockers. In the end, only five workstations were left.

And except for Yverol's workstation which was neatly tidied up, the remaining workstations were filled with messy pages, which made people feel upset just looking at them.

In addition, I also smelled the smell of incense, and saw common ritual components such as wooden boxes, small mirrors, and lit candles in every corner.

The specific function is still unknown, but the results of the inspiration probe indicate that there is no danger and it shows a defensive tendency. It seems that it should be the handiwork of the new security consultant, Ms. Landis.

"Why is sister you the only one here?"

Lloyd asked again, and then activated [Exploration]

There has been no change in Yverol's attributes.

It seems that the previous omen was really just a broken watch?

But things like [divination] should be forward-looking and foreseeable...

"They all went to eat."

Everol said, laughed happily again, and moved closer to Lloyd.

"That's right, let's go eat too? There are several great restaurants nearby."

The two then went to a nearby restaurant. While waiting for the food to be served, Everol hesitated for a moment, and then asked in a low voice:

"Xiaoyi, were you... bullied by someone over there?"

Lloyd didn't expect her to ask this at all, so he quickly explained:

"Huh? How is that possible? Now I'm just worried about others complaining that I bully them."

"But... Xiaoyi, you suddenly came to me..."

"Sister, don't think too much. I really just came here to take a look. It just so happens that I don't have much work today and am relatively free."

"Um……"

Everol nodded and did not ask any further questions.

But those big emerald eyes noticed Lloyd's command knife leaning against the wall.

After dinner, Lloyd said he wanted to know more about his sister's work, so Everol took him back to the editorial office.

As a result, just as they reached the stairs on the first floor, the siblings suddenly stopped in unison.

"Eh? Why does the atmosphere here seem a bit..."

Everol frowned her slender eyebrows and subconsciously wanted to go upstairs.

But Lloyd moved one step faster and stopped in front of her.

"Leave this to me. Sister, go to the Holy Inquisition Church on the west corner and ask the priests and priests there to come over as soon as possible."

Everol did not entangle or hold back. She nodded decisively and just reminded:

"Okay, Xiao Yi, you must be careful. If you see the candle in the corner extinguished, don't stay too long and leave immediately!"

After saying that, he quickly ran towards the church.

Lloyd held the dagger and command knife, and a little bit of inspiration lingered around him, and then he cautiously went upstairs step by step.

At the same time, he also called up the panel and always paid attention to the prompts.

Even the little milk cat got out of his pocket and climbed all the way to the top of his head to help guard the surroundings.

It is now in the afternoon, which is supposed to be the time when the light is the most abundant. The doors and windows of this small building are open and the lighting is excellent. However, the light seems to be blocked by something invisible, making the whole building dark. .

A slight tingling sensation kept coming from Lloyd's inspiration, like pepper rubbed on his skin, representing the unsettling atmosphere in the air.

As he walked up the steps step by step, the spicy smell became stronger and stronger.

But his naked eyes didn't detect anything, and there was no prompt from the panel, indicating that there was at least no strong mental pollution in the air.

Lloyd first went to his sister's editorial office, stood outside the door, and observed it.

On the four already messy workstations inside, four young people, two men and two women, seemed to be taking a lunch break.

Lloyd knocked hard on the door with the hilt of his knife.

no respond……

He glanced at the white candle in the corner again.

As expected, it was extinguished.

Lloyd did not go in, nor did he intend to wake up his sister's four subordinates.

He didn't know what would wake him up...

Lloyd turned his head and looked at several other offices in the corridor.

This small building is filled with small companies and institutions from many industries, including accounting firms, logistics companies, cosmetics agents, etc.

The door of every office is open, and there are people lying on their stomachs and sleeping inside. It seems that everyone has a good habit of taking a lunch break.

After checking the second floor, Lloyd still found nothing unusual, so he continued to the third floor.

It wasn't until his inspiration suddenly felt a clear sting that he stopped.

When I looked up, I saw that it was an 'antique' shop, with various tools and a batch of unfinished 'antiques' scattered everywhere.

I will update one chapter first, and the second one will be sent later.
