Chapter 84 Mysterious Association (please read it!)

"Mr. Spades, um...please sit down."

Black Skull groaned, then raised his hand to indicate that Chen Lun could sit on an empty seat.

Chen Lun nodded, found a chair, and sat down.

"Since there are new people joining, why don't you introduce yourselves first."

The black skull leaned back slightly and leaned on the back of the chair.

The first person to agree was the rough woman who fought against Chen Lun.

"You can call me 'Fin'. If you have a business of 'pulling boats', you can come to me."

The so-called "pimping" is a slang term, which is similar in nature to pimping, but more straightforward. Because this is directly kidnapping the woman and delivering it to the client. Or kidnap customers and force consumption.

Chen Lun could smell a hint of sea salt and fishy smell from her body. This woman probably lived in the Lona Port area, and even worked in the port on weekdays.

"Is it [Sequence 8-Navigator]...?"

He secretly guessed in his heart.

Then the other five people introduced themselves.

A short-haired woman wearing a white mask called herself "Civet". Chen Lun could not feel any extraordinary fluctuations in her body.

The middle-aged man next to her was wearing a skeletal mask with ancient writings engraved on it. He has a strong voice and a calm tone, and his pseudonym is "Scrooge".

There is a stooped man who looks like an old man. He has a big gray hat on his head, which covers his face and only reveals a bit of gray beard. His name is "Xue Xue".

The other two particularly attracted Chen Lun's attention.

A slovenly, unshaven man, without any disguise, with indifferent eyes, wearing a linen robe worn by lower-class civilians. He looked straight ahead and said two words lightly:

"The hammer."

The last one was wearing a black suit with a white shirt lining, but he held a silver pot upside down on his head... I don't know how he could see things clearly.

I saw him reluctantly spreading his hands, and a male voice sounded from the silver pot:

"You can call me 'gentleman', new guy."

Chen Lun nodded but did not respond.

He was secretly wary.

At present, this mysterious association hidden in the old site of Pompeii Manor has gathered seven people from the mysterious field at the same time. Except for "Civet", the other six are extraordinary people.

And their sequences are not low.

At least Chen Lun didn't feel the presence of any [Sequence 9].

"I don't know if [Philip's inheritance] was taken away by them..."

Chen Lun only felt a headache.

"It seems that our Mr. Big Eater was probably killed by Mr. Spades... Tsk, when did Amber City gain such a strong man?"

The gentleman chuckled.

The civet glanced at him and retorted:

"It is not ruled out that it is a token found."

"Haha..."

The gentleman shook his head, the silver pot around his neck shaking slightly.

The miser spoke from the side:

"This doesn't explain how he found this place."

"Could it be that the 'shelter' arrested the 'Big Eater' and exposed our gathering place?"

Knowledge said.

Upon hearing the word "shelter", everyone fell silent and fell into a cold mood.

"Don't be nervous, everyone..."

Black Skull said calmly.

"A 'shelter' alone can't help us. Maybe Mr. Spade's information was given by the Big Eater... Don't speculate any more, it's meaningless."

He knocked on the table and continued:

"Let's start today's process, starting with the transaction."

Chen Lun looked at the black skull in surprise, wondering why he excused himself.

As the founder of the association, Black Skull seemed to be quite authoritative. After hearing what he said, everyone no longer bothered about the reason why Chen Lun found this place.

"Two copies of [Low Sequence Moon Faction Mysterious Substance] in exchange for something extraordinary, who wants it?"

Fish Fin took out two crumpled paper balls and roughly spread them out, revealing two small black balls with purple tints.

Everyone was silent for a moment, and the gentleman spoke:

"Are you going to hunt the monks of the Church of the Moon again? Be careful you will be caught one day..."

"Mind your own business, Urinal Head."

Fin sneered.

The gentleman shrugged and said nothing.

"I want it."

Iron Hammer said calmly.

"What do you want in exchange? First of all, I don't need mysterious substances."

"How about this?"

Iron Hammer took out a strange-looking "umbrella". The end of the curved hook was actually the butt and handle of the gun, and was equipped with a trigger. It looked more like a two-handed flintlock gun.

"Man-made [D-level monster]? How does it work? What's the cost?"

Fish Fin became interested and asked quickly.

"Open the umbrella, pull the trigger, and launch extraordinary incendiary bombs...extract body moisture as ammunition."

A hammer cherishes words like gold, explain briefly.

"Okay! Changed!"

The fins pushed the two black and purple balls over, and the big hand reached for the umbrella flintlock.

Unexpectedly, the hammer pressed down on the gun body.

"What do you mean?"

Fin frowned.

"Not enough."

Iron Hammer said, then added:

"Add another 50 gold pounds."

Fish Fin was silent for a moment, nodded, gritted his teeth and took out another [Low Sequence Moon Faction Mysterious Substance].

"The market price of [Low Sequence Moon Faction Mysterious Substance] is around 50 gold pounds, which is very reasonable."

Black Skeleton reminded from the side.

Iron Hammer did not speak in response, but nodded slightly, accepted the three black and purple pills, and handed the umbrella gun to Fin.

Next, there were two more transactions, both of which were barter-for-things, rarely purchased with currency.

Extraordinaries at this stage are rarely short of money. It’s more about becoming stronger in the mysterious field and going further in the sequence path.

"Mr. Spades, don't you have any needs?"

Black Skull asked.

Chen Lun noticed that everyone else was looking at him, knowing that he would look suspicious if he didn't do something.

So he chuckled and took out a [Low Sequence Conspiracy Faction Mysterious Substance], a small gray ball.

"I'm very interested in sequence pathways other than the Seven Righteous Gods. If any of you have extraordinary knowledge, this is a deposit... We can chat in private and discuss the price in detail."

Chen Lun did need to improve his knowledge, but he couldn't say it clearly.

"The hidden sequences outside the seven righteous gods... [Destiny], [Conspiracy] and [Nature], these three sequences are rare and I don't have them in my hand."

Black Skull shook his head.

After the others whispered a few words, they all fell silent.

"Well, if you have relevant information, you can sell it to me as a reward for a low-sequence mysterious substance."

Chen Lun pretended to be sorry and said in a deep voice.

"Okay, if you don't have a deal, feel free to speak."

Black Skull hosts the party.

The atmosphere in the association was a little calmer and more relaxed.

"I heard that there has been a lot of turmoil in the Parliament recently. After Representative Daniel was assassinated, Representative Lawson was very happy and seemed to have found a big supporter..."

said the gentleman sarcastically.

"As far as I know, he is a mid-level extraordinary person with strong strength... and he has an [A-level magic object] in his hand."

Scrooge added.

Others were shocked.

"Are you sure it's [A-level monster]?!"

Fish Fin said in surprise.

Not only had she never seen a monster of this level, she had never even heard of it. It was so rare.

"That's not his thing."

said the miser indifferently.

Others secretly speculated that the strong man behind Congressman Lawson had stolen something from a church or robbed some association.

After continuing to communicate on this topic, Cingmao spoke:

"...Earl Bradley is really a fool. His wife has already had a new love, but he was kept in the dark."

"Maybe it's not that I don't know, I'm just pretending not to know."

Xuexue coughed twice and smiled.

"If the Countess' new love is a powerful supernatural being, Earl Bradley may not dare to say anything... This is the reality."

The others nodded in approval.

There is actually a deep gap between ordinary people and the mysterious realm. Regardless of your extraordinary status and extraordinary wealth, in front of the powerful extraordinary, you are just a weak life that can be killed with a snap of a finger.

Even if there is a wanted person in the asylum, he can always escape to another country.

Unless he has committed a heinous crime, the empire will not send too many forces to pursue him.

Chen Lun said nothing, reduced his presence, and silently collected information.

Half an hour later.

Black Skull stood up to end the party.

"The old rule is to leave one by one in order. The next gathering will be in three days. If there is an accident, a code will be published in the newspaper to reschedule."

Immediately afterwards, he motioned for Chen Lun to leave first, and led Chen Lun into a side door of the tomb.

Entering the side door, Chen Lun found that there were more than a dozen branching aisles inside, which seemed to lead to different exits. Only then did he realize that the original site of Pompeii Manor was just one of the ways to come.

Black Skeleton sent Chen Lun to the exit, then nodded and turned back.

Chen Lun noticed that there was a finger-sized bell hanging on the other party's cuff.

He kept this detail in mind.

After leaving the exit, Chen Lun found that he had returned to Xiashui Beach in the outer city area, which was a giant outlet of the drainage canal.

"Who designed this stronghold..."

Chen Lun secretly admired him.

Not only it's hidden, but it's also accessible in all directions, it's really the best choice for a safe house.

Suddenly, a person's name flashed in his mind.

"It can't be Philip...?"

The original words in the diary are: "...I hid all the savings and extraordinary things I had collected over the years underground in the backyard of Viscount Pompeii's house, and I dug a hole there-"
