Chapter 677 Long time no see
“Yes, Mr. told me personally.”
Cole laughed, he leaned back on the chair comfortably, closed his eyes and enjoyed the rare Rest time: "Although my mobility is pretty good, my ability to see the overall situation is much worse than yours. , there are many things hidden under the surface that cannot be seen through. It may be more than enough as a knife or a puppet, but in the end it is still difficult to achieve anything big."
Xiao Ai wrinkled his nose and said suspiciously: "This. Is that what Mr. said?”
“That’s not true.”
"I'm just saying, Cole, you just think too much."
"The original words are much more unpleasant."
"."
Xiao Ai choked, Lenovo Looking at her husband's character, she felt that Cole was most likely telling the truth.
“Haha, I think this is good. At least my husband’s evaluation of me is fair and pertinent.”
The latter smiled and said cheerfully: "To tell you the truth, although I have been acting according to your husband's wishes during this period, many times I can't even see through the appearance of those 'instructions', let alone what's inside." The metaphor and connotation of it, I didn’t realize it until the end every time. Figure out what you want to do."
Xiao Ai also laughed and nodded: "This kind of thing is normal, it is strange to be able to guess what sir is thinking."
"That's what I'm saying."
Cole stretched out, careful Cautiously touching the naughty golden spark in front of him with his short blade, he slumped limply on the chair: "So just being able to complete those instructions without making any mistakes is enough for me. Some of the higher-level tasks, I felt like I was going to mess up. "
The thin wooden board moved about a centimeter to both sides. Xiao Ai looked at the young man who suddenly appeared in his field of vision with a smile. He blinked at the stunned latter and stretched out his slender white hand. The index finger tapped his lips: "Shh~"
"Wow, does the confession room still have this function?"
Cole was startled, lowered his voice and moved to the gap in front of him, looking at the little face opposite him that was no different from his memory. He whispered: "Then say it again, it's been a long time. Oops!"
"Don't get so close!"
Subconsciously poked Cole's suddenly enlarged face back. Xiao Ai shook her head with a blush on her face: "You are overthinking, it wasn't me."
Looking at the other person's face, which was exactly the same as in his memory and not very handsome, he wrote: With an innocent and silly face, the girl couldn't help but burst into laughter.
His hair was longer than he remembered, and it was trimmed very neatly. He was wearing an awkward black waiter's uniform, a black bow tie, and a pair of white gloves. He looked nothing like he had half a year ago. The mud-legged guy who carries two daggers all day long, but that one was intertwined after being flicked by him. The silly face with confusion, confusion, and even a little grievance is still the same as before.
Yes, although everything around the two of them has become different, even beyond recognition, Xiao Ai It was very clear that the guy in front of him, who was strictly speaking a teenager, was still the same as before.
No matter how mature he becomes, even if his hands are stained with blood, he is still the timid and clumsy Cole Shuren, the one who always walks behind his friends with a silly smile, Cole Shuren likes to stare at the back of a girl secretly.
He hasn’t changed at all
Unfortunately, neither has he.
"Who did that?"
Cole asked stupidly, covering his forehead, causing the little priest who had started to be in a daze for no reason to come back to his senses.
"Mr. did it. I don't know what he wanted to do."
Xiao Ai snorted angrily, and the faint blush on his face showed no sign of fading away.
As a result, the moment Cole heard the word 'Mr.', he gave up thinking like a conditioned reflex, nodded slightly and said: "I see, since it was done by Mr., it must have a deep meaning."
[What a profound meaning! You obviously want to upset me on purpose, okay? 】
Xiao Ai was so angry that she couldn't tell Cole directly, so she had to change the subject distractedly: "Well, what have you been doing recently? If it's convenient to talk about it."
Cole did not answer immediately, but just made a conjecture He looked around consciously: "Is it safe?"
"Don't worry, sir, there is a reason why you chose this place."
Xiao Ai nodded lightly and smiled: " No one else will listen.”
Only then did Cole feel relieved and said softly: "In recent times, most of the time I have been working as a servant in the Kevos family's manor, plus investigating a few little people, and well, I go to the Thieves Guild every two days to show my face. In addition to communicating with a few informants, I also need to hand over tasks to my husband and report the situation. That’s about all I can say.”
“Feelings. It's so hard."
Xiao Ai smacked his lips, not expecting that Cole, who was also a Mr. Ma Zi like him, was actually doing so many things at the same time, and this was just 'convenient to say'.
Cole shook his head with a smile: "It's not hard, and allowing me to take care of so many things shows that my husband has trusted me more and more."
"Mr. Trust you.”
Xiao Ai sighed softly, then stepped forward and looked at Cole's tired eyes: "So. Lorna's situation."
Cole's originally haggard face suddenly glowed, I don’t even know the speed of my speech Unconsciously, it became a lot faster: "Lona's soul is in very good condition. My husband even spent a lot of money to buy her [Hoarfrost Grass] that can nourish the spirit body. I went to check it out and found that it is a very rare species." Plants, for alchemists, sorcerers, and the dead Spirit mage is a very precious refining material. Putting it in a soul-inducing bottle can not only prevent Lorna's soul from spilling out, but also make her more energetic. Even if the price is cheaper here in the Free City, One plant costs tens of thousands of gold coins, but my husband sent me to buy it directly."
He was dancing and talking as if he was a different person, with excitement and excitement on his face, and he was chatting with Xiao Ai in high spirits. Sharing this joy that is difficult to express in words.
“It’s so good~”
The girl was also happy for her friend from the bottom of her heart. She knew that although a soul-inducing bottle could keep the soul intact for a long time, it could not Ensure that there is no spillage during this process, allowing a incomplete soul to Complete resurrection is obviously a big project, even for Mr. Wang, who is almost omnipotent in the eyes of the two, so counting the previous six months, I don’t know how long it will take to resurrect Lorna. In this way , the [White Frost Grass] which is said to be able to nourish the spiritual body is particularly precious.
Cole grinned and said excitedly: "Not only that, do you still remember the Mr. Winter we met before? He is an academic necromancer who is quite accomplished in summoning spirits. The gentleman said, that Mr. Winter Drilling recently Looking at the solution to Luona's current situation, if everything goes well, it can take as long as two years or as short as half a year to start trying to resurrect."
"Necromancer"
Xiao Ai. Sipping with some worry He pursed his lips and asked uneasily: "Does sir want Lorna to be resurrected in the form of an undead creature? Although that is also a way, it still makes people feel a little bit."
Cole shook his head like a rattle. He shook his head and said quickly: "I know what you are worried about, Xiao Ai. I have asked your husband about this before, and guess what, that Mr. Winter is actually an undead creature!"
< br>“Oh!”
Xiao Ai slapped her forehead and suddenly realized that because she had met several times in the past six months, she remembered her husband's friend named Lin Dong quite clearly. In her impression, he was not as good as his husband, but he had quite a personality. As a young human being who escaped, the two of them even acted together when they were in the Violet Empire, and the 'Zombie' transformation of Mr. Winter was still fresh in her memory.
You must know that you are somewhat of a sun priest. Although you are going further and further on the road of blasphemy, you still have the abilities you should have. However, Mr. Winter is outside of the 'Zombie' form. At that time, no matter how much I felt at the time, I couldn't detect any difference between the latter and ordinary people. "What do you mean, sir?"
The girl's eyes lit up and she hurriedly approached the partition between the two of them, becoming excited as well.
“That’s right!”
Cole nodded vigorously, trying to lower his voice that was getting louder due to overexcitement: "Sir, what you mean is to try to get Mr. Winter to turn Lorna into an 'Eternal Race' like him. This race This is also the first time I have heard of people who seem to be able to switch between the two forms of life and death at will. It is said that when they are in the state of 'life', even people at the level of the Pope cannot detect their essence. It’s about undead creatures.”
“Listen to me, actually.”
Xiao Ai laughed, and then told the story of how he was with the Winter in the Violet Empire. The husband told Cole about the action together. The latter listened with great interest and his eyes shone. When he thought that Lorna might be able to walk in the sun as before after her resurrection, it was so bright that her whole life seemed to brighten up. .
“But this is only the best case scenario after all.”
After the excitement, Cole clenched his fists and poured cold water on himself, and said with a wry smile: “Mr. told me very much. Understand that although Mr. Cold Winter has profound knowledge in summoning spirits, it is very difficult to successfully transform a soul into the special physique of the Eternals. Even if they are all weirdos with special means, you know, it is also very difficult. It is difficult to guarantee the success rate.”
Xiao Ai shook his head and waved his little fist to cheer Cole up: "It will be okay! I don't know anything that sir can't do."
"Well, you are right. "
Cole smiled in relief, then stood up and winked at Xiao Ai: "Then, I'll leave first. I'm so happy to see you. "
The next second, the hourly bell outside the chapel rang.
“Yeah, me too.”
The girl who seemed to have forgotten the time quickly covered the gap in the partition, and smiled sweetly the moment Cole's face disappeared from her sight: "You must pay attention to safety."
The latter nodded slightly and opened the wooden door of the confessional: "Don't worry, I'm not willing to die before I see Lorna resurrected."
One minute later
"It's so obvious."
The girl sighed quietly in the empty confessional room, buried her face in her arms and murmured in a low voice: "There is no progress at all, it's still the same as before. Stupid"
Game time PM13:39
Free City, a certain tavern
Wearing a set of pure black tight leather armor and a full-face mask, Cole opened the door and walked in slowly. I came to the bar and knocked on the table twice, and looked at the man who looked at least ninety years old. The old human man said solemnly: "I have an appointment."
"What?"
The old man wiping the dirty cup was stunned for a moment, and stared blankly with his cloudy eyes. He looked at Cole and picked his ears hard: "What did you say?"
"The password is [Scumbag]."
Cole simply ignored the old man's question.
"Go down to the cellar, the third door on the right side of the first corridor, two long and four short, you still have 35 minutes."
The old man nodded, lowered his eyes and wiped his hands again Holding the dirty cup in his hand, he said without raising his head: "By the way, your friend has been waiting for you for twenty minutes."
Cole nodded slightly, thanked the old man casually, and then He walked straight into the kitchen next to the bar.
Five minutes later
Bang—bang—bah bah bah—
Cole knocked on the iron door of unknown quality in front of him, and was immediately followed by a force that appeared out of thin air. The suction force 'pulled' him into the darkness. When his vision returned to normal again, he found that he was in an antique room. A young man who looked exactly like himself was squatting on a chair and looking over here with a smile. .
"Sir."
Cole leaned over and saluted, not showing the slightest surprise.
"You came just in time."
Mo Tan raised his eyebrows, casually took off the [Baishi] on his face, and waved to Cole: "Come here."
After The reporter stepped forward slowly and took three pieces of densely written parchment from Mo Tan's hand. Although the writing was very beautiful, the amount of text was really not much at all.
"I'll buy a wheat straw chrysanthemum later and send it out with this letter."
Mo Tan yawned, sat astride a chair and said lazily: "Wandering in the clouds The channel of the hostel is Ms. Diana A. Azizolti of the Private Laboratory No. 0 of the Mage Branch in Crystal Town, and her identity is No. 11.”
"Well, Crystal Town Mage Branch, Ms. Diana A. Azizolti from Private Laboratory Zero."
Cole repeated it quickly, carefully folded the letter and put it away. Confirmed: "The sender, um, is it Frank Hughes?"
Mo Tan played with the harp on the table boredly, and said 'hmm' absentmindedly.
"Also, uh, what is wheat straw chrysanthemum?"
"Oh? Is there no wheat straw chrysanthemum in your world?"
"As far as I know, there doesn't seem to be any, sir."
"Is there any flower language?"
"There doesn't seem to be, sir."
"Then That’s easy, just buy some less mainstream flowers and send them out. I’ll explain the specific meaning in the letter.”
“Yes, sir”
