Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery
#8 - Odysseus's boss
Recently, Backlund has been plagued by a series of serial murders, causing widespread panic. The official Beyonders have strengthened their control over the entire city, deterring any activities by wild Beyonders.

Odise called out to Kana, who was about to leave. He first wrote a few words on paper, then took out a 5-pound banknote and handed it to him: "Go to the 'Backlund Post' again, and as usual, publish this GG in the third edition."
This money can be reimbursed from the Church of Steam and Machinery, so his gesture of taking out the money looked very generous.
In Backlund, the most popular newspapers are the 'Backlund Morning News' and the 'Rune Evening News'. Publishing a small GG in an inconspicuous position in a newspaper like the 'Backlund Post', which doesn't have very good sales, only costs 5 pounds.
Of course, in Odise's memory, 5 pounds is sometimes worth the same as an ambassador.
Last year, under Max's recommendation, Odise met Ikanse Bernard, the captain of the 'Heart of the Machine' in the Backlund region.
After several consultations, with the help of the Steam Church, Odise established a 'Mysticism Research Society' in the form of a gathering, purchasing extraordinary and spiritual materials that the church could use from the people, and disposing of some things they couldn't use.
Theoretically, with Odise's strength, it would be difficult to maintain such a gathering, but his 'behind-the-scenes boss' is the Steam Church, and no one dares to have any objections.
After more than a year of operation, more than a dozen low-sequence Beyonders have joined the gathering.
In addition, the gathering also has more than a dozen senior mysticism enthusiasts carefully selected by Odise. They all have their own channels and ways to know the existence of Beyonders and hope to become one of them.
This is a good place to collect information and spread news. Currently, Odise has gradually become the eyes and ears of the Steam Church in Backlund.
Publishing GG in the 'Backlund Post' is to release the gathering time in code.
This is the way the 'Eye of Wisdom' releases the gathering time. Odise thinks it's very useful, so he took it and used it without any politeness.
After Kana left, Odise sat behind the counter to watch the store. Generally, from the evening, mysticism enthusiasts who need it will start to patronize the herbal shop and continue until late at night.
Looking at the entire Backlund, the Jall Herbal Shop is the most complete store in terms of variety. Mysticism enthusiasts throughout the city know that herbs that cannot be bought elsewhere can definitely be bought here.
After a tiring night, Odise rested in an easy chair as usual.
Ding-ling-ling~
Odise raised his head helplessly. Now, hearing this sound is a bit like hearing a telephone ring before he transmigrated.
The visitor was a woman in her thirties, not very beautiful but very temperamental, with a very fashionable hairstyle and dressed very much like the "new era woman" depicted in magazines.
Odise got up and said, "How can I help you?"
The woman surveyed the herbal shop before looking at Odise: "Are you Odise Jall?"
"I am."
"I'm here to deliver the deposit and learn how to maintain weapons." The woman handed Odise a paper package with a cold expression.
To be honest, she didn't understand this task very well, and she didn't know what this casually dressed young man could teach her.
But because it was the "Queen's" order, she rushed over as quickly as possible, but she couldn't help but have some contempt in her tone.
Odise didn't care too much about the other party's expression. According to his observation, the person in front of him was at least a Sequence 7, or even a Sequence 6.
Facing a Sequence 9, she has the capital to be arrogant.
Odise opened the paper package and counted the money. It was exactly 1000 pounds.
He casually put the money on the counter: "Come back at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon, and I will explain the magic circle in the weapon and the maintenance methods."
The woman frowned slightly: "Can it be in the morning?"
"No, I have something to do tomorrow morning."
Because there hadn't been a gathering for a long time, Odise set the gathering time for tomorrow morning.
The 'Backlund Post' is sold in the evening, so there is still time.
The woman glanced at Odise, and then suddenly smiled slightly: "Then it will be in the afternoon."
After speaking, she turned around and left, without even the most basic self-introduction.
… …
At eight o'clock in the morning, Odise, wearing a dark trench coat and a low-brimmed hat, came to No. 77 Hilton Avenue, south of Green Park.
This is a small house. Although the interior is very clean, it lacks the atmosphere of a resident.
After Odise glanced outside from the window, he opened the door leading to the basement and reached out to inject spirituality into the correct position to disarm the extraordinary trap in the downward passage.
The basement is very empty, with only a table and a coat rack. On one of the walls is a huge "eight-pointed star" magic circle.
The various nodes of the magic circle are filled with gems engraved with mystical symbols. In the center of the magic circle, there is a layered door symbol, inlaid with an "Ahorna Crystal".
The "Ahorna Crystal" is one of the main materials for advancing to "Traveler", and its value is self-evident. The small crystal on Odise's coat is worth 1200 pounds, while the "Ahorna Crystal" inlaid on the wall is worth 3300 pounds.
No mistake, one first, one hair, one inside, one appearance, one at a glance!
However, Odise later divided the money into more than a dozen times and reimbursed it from the Steam Church.
Here, Odise put on an iron mask engraved with mystical symbols, and took off his trench coat, putting on a hooded cloak to conceal all his features.
Then he came to the wall with the "eight-pointed star" magic circle and injected spirituality into one of the gems. Under the effect of the extraordinary material, the "eight-pointed star" magic circle opened a virtual passage.
Odise stepped into the virtual world and came to a basement three streets away.
This magic circle is the same principle as the magic circle on his coat, but this is a fixed passage, so it is relatively stable and will not have the feeling of being blown to the sky by a storm.
It's just a pity that this magic circle can only allow one person to pass through, and there can only be one fixed teleportation location. After using it once, it needs to rest for an hour before it can be used again, and it cannot be carried with you.
Arriving at the other basement, Odise didn't feel any discomfort. He came from the basement to the outside living room in the dark.
At this time, several people who participated in the gathering had already arrived in the living room. Odise had always appeared from the basement, and they were already accustomed to it.
There are several rows of chairs in the spacious living room, and Odise sits on a small stage opposite these chairs.
The members participating in the gathering arrived one after another. Soon it was half past eight, and the agreed gathering time had arrived, but only a little more than half of the participants had arrived.
Odise said: "Okay, let's not wait anymore."
A participant with a mask and a tall figure said: "I hope they are all still alive."
Odise smiled: "Don't be so pessimistic."
He paused and announced: "The gathering begins!"
A participant in the back row said, first using a rough voice: "I want to recommend a new member! She is a bounty hunter active in the East End. I have dealt with her several times and she is very reliable."
"She seems to be an 'Arbitrator', uh... just a little short."
Odise was stunned: Could this guy be recommending Hugh?
