Chapter 186 Give me wine, give me murder
Divination gave results.
It shows that there is indeed such a being, secretly controlling the pollution wave.
‘The divination points to the black plain. I feel a sense of danger over there, and the distance is very far away... I’ll put it aside for now and wait until I’m promoted in the future to take a look. ’
Chen Lun thought to himself.
At this time, Daye led the two white cat warriors to the top of the spire.
"Lord Beloved, this is the loot left by the pollution wave. Please accept it."
It stepped aside, and the two white cat warriors behind it worked together to lift a wooden box, placed it in front of Chen Lun with a thud, and opened the lid of the wooden box.
Chen Lun took a closer look and saw that it was filled with all kinds of extraordinary materials.
The skin, claws, teeth and internal organs of the Gila monster, as well as bottles of viscous liquid, hard shell fragments, eyeballs and various tissues of the frogman are included.
"What was the use of this kind of extraordinary material that Kazite obtained in the past?"
Chen Lun asked.
"It can be used to make extraordinary things, forge weapons and brew sun wine..."
Daye replied.
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows and asked him about the brewing method of sun wine.
Daye did not keep it secretly, and readily told the respected Lord the Beloved about the brewing method.
But what makes Chen Lun regretful is that the brewing of sun wine requires not only special extraordinary materials, but also devout belief in the cat god.
Perhaps in Daye's heart, Lord Beloved is more pious than every white cat.
But in fact, only Chen Lun himself understood that he was a lover of the hammer. Not to mention his belief in the cat god, even his own belief attribute did not exceed double digits.
Not only that, he also found out that the brewing of moon wine is similar. The most important thing is the devout belief in the cat god.
'Unfortunately...it seems that moon wine and sun wine can only be obtained through the cat clan. ’
he thought.
"Daye, take all the useful materials from this box of extraordinary materials..."
Chen Lun said.
Daye was slightly startled, and the two white cat warriors were also stunned.
"Lord Beloved, you are truly admirable. On behalf of the residents of Kazite Cat, I am here to express my most sincere gratitude to you."
Daye prostrated and saluted.
Chen Lun waved his hand.
Daye just asked the white cat warrior to take away the bottle of thick liquid in the wooden box, as well as the claws and teeth of the Gila monster, leaving the rest untouched.
"The juice of this 'human-headed slug' has a powerful healing effect and can be used to make healing medicine...We can use the minions of the Gila monster to forge weapons."
Daye seemed very satisfied and explained to Chen Lun.
Seeing that Lord Beloved had no objection, it led the two white cat warriors away.
After they leave.
Chen Lun counted the extraordinary materials in the wooden box and found that the total amount exceeded one hundred. After putting them all into the blood poem ring, I felt very good.
‘Including the extraordinary materials obtained from players before, there are now about 130 copies in stock... After returning to the living world, give them to Maggie and Floy. ’

Jack Manor.
Restaurant on the first floor.
All the core members of the circus who were dining together today are here.
"This is the last dish made by Miss Floy, amethyst flavored squab pie."
Connie carried the dinner plate and came to the dining table to put it down.
Chen Lun turned around and saw Floy taking off his apron and walking slowly towards him.
"Thank you for your hard work, Floy, sit down and eat."
He spoke softly.
Floy smiled at him, nodded, and then sat directly on Chen Lun's left hand side.
Noah on the right has already eagerly tied on his white scarf, holds a knife and fork in both hands, and sits upright like a good student.
"Everyone, let's get started."
Chen Lun said.
"Yes, Mr. Captain."
Golov spoke first.
The others followed him and responded respectfully.
"Hmm...it's delicious! Floy, I like the beef you made so much!"
Maggie forked a piece of medium-rare steak, put it in her mouth and gnawed on it. Blood flowed down the corners of her mouth, making Chen Lun's eyes twitch.
"Uh, sorry."
She noticed the looks the others were looking at her, laughed, picked up the napkin on the table and wiped her mouth.
Noah said nothing, lowered his head and ate the food quickly.
"The circus has gained a lot in recent times. We will pay you some wages as a reward for your efforts."
Chen Lun took out several Imperial Bank certificates and handed them to Connie at the side.
Connie distributed the cards to each member based on the names posted in advance.
Floy gave 500 gold pounds, Noah and Maggie gave 300 gold pounds, Connie gave 200 gold pounds, and Barton and Golov both gave 100 gold pounds.
When Connie looked at the small card in her hand with the mark of two hundred gold pounds written on it, her mouth opened wide. She covered her mouth in disbelief.
This 200 gold pounds was a huge amount of money that she had never imagined for a girl who grew up in an outer city.
She used to study at Hinoye College, where the weekly salary of professors was only 65 silver coins, and the weekly wages of factory workers only ranged from 6 to 10 silver coins.
Floy silently rubbed her fingertips over the indentations on the gold-plated card, and sketched out the specific numbers in her mind.
She was a little surprised by the huge amount of money, but she didn't hold back much. She gently pushed the card back to Chen Lun's hand.
Chen Lun looked at her doubtfully.
"It's useless for me to take so much money. There are still many places where you need it now."
Floy responded with a smile.
At this time, Noah put down his knife and fork, but there was still a stain on the corner of his mouth. He smiled, picked up the card and said to Chen Lun:
"Mr. Jack, I'm not short of money. Let's keep these gold pounds for the development team."
When Connie saw this, she immediately put down the bank certificate.
"Mr. Jack, this is too much."
Upon seeing this, Golov and Barton felt that the cards they were holding were a little hot, so they put them down.
Only Maggie stuffed it into her pocket and ate the steak by herself.
Chen Lun was a little confused about whether to laugh or cry, and finally shook his head.
"Take it all, you deserve this..."
He turned to look at Floy again, grabbed her hand, and placed the card on his palm.
"Take it."
Chen Lun said two words briefly, and then added in a gentle tone:
"If you want to buy something in the future, don't do it secretly."
Floy was stunned for a moment, then pursed her lips and clasped the card tightly, feeling warm in her heart.
After hearing what the group leader said, the others put the cards away with peace of mind. And I am still thinking about what I should buy with this huge sum of money, and my heart is full of expectations.
Immediately afterwards, Chen Lun explained some matters.
He allocated 500 gold pounds of activity funds to Connie and Barton each to increase investment in the workshop and develop the Xiashuitan Iron Fist Gang.
I asked Noah about the acquisition of Cursed Objects and got an uncertain answer:
"There is a noble who intends to sell a family treasure. It is initially judged that it is an ancient cursed object. Now Uncle Walsh is negotiating with him."
Noah said.
Chen Lun nodded to express his understanding.
After meal.
Chen Lun left behind Maggie and Floy.
He put all the extraordinary materials he had collected on the table and let them choose.
"In the future, I will also issue a commission to the Silver Dragon Chamber of Commerce to continuously acquire extraordinary materials for your use... Of course, I will also take some of them to make wine."
Chen Lun said to the two of them.
Maggie looked excited, picking through the extraordinary materials on the table, and finally selected twenty or thirty pieces. Then she took out a cloth bag from her pocket and packed them up.
"Hey! Leader, I want these."
"Okay."
Chen Lun nodded, and then saw Maggie waving her hand and rushing upstairs impatiently, probably to do her experiment.
He sighed helplessly and turned to look at Floy again.
'Floyd makes me worry the most...'
The blind girl had a faint smile on her lips, a dim purple light flashed in her hands, and she moved slowly over the extraordinary materials, as if she was screening them.
She stretched out a white index finger and tapped it from time to time, leaving a purple fluorescent mark on the selected extraordinary material.
After a while.
"Sorry, there seem to be too many choices..."
Floy looked at Chen Lun and brushed her long pale blond hair around her ears.
Chen Lun counted and found that Floy had probably chosen more than eighty.
"It doesn't matter, as long as you can use it. You don't need to pursue perfect magic items. As long as they can make you accumulate mysterious things, they are valuable."
He chuckled as he put away the extraordinary materials that Floy didn't choose.
"Thank you."
Floy smiled.
Chen Lun looked at her and suddenly remembered something.
"You're welcome. If you really want to thank me, please make me some rice tomorrow... Your cooking is delicious, and I miss it a little bit."
Floy was startled for a moment, then smiled even more.
"Yeah!"

The next day.
Chen Lun received a letter from Meng Na again.
The letter stated that the shelter had recently found the source of the plague, which was suspected to be some kind of evil ritual performed by a wild supernatural being.
This person's name is Akbin Korver, a heretic from the Natural Sect. He was exiled by the sect many years ago because of his research on natural taboos and extreme ideas, and then disappeared.
According to reliable information, when he was exiled, he was a [Natural Faction Sequence 7-Forester], but now his strength is unknown, and he has most likely been promoted to [Sequence 6], which is very dangerous.
Attached to the letter was a wanted warrant.
Above is a bearded man with medium-long hair, a hooked nose, and sharp eyes.
The bounty reached a staggering 3,000 gold pounds.
At the end of the letter, Mona asked the circus to pay attention to this person. If a target is found, it is better not to alert the enemy but to report it to the shelter. After formulating a plan, the shelter will request the support of the elite "executioners" from its superiors before arresting the target.
Chen Lun collected the letter with a strange expression.
Because he was very familiar with Akbin and had dealt with this NPC in his previous life.
‘In my impression, Akbin is not an evil camp, not even a chaotic camp… On the contrary, this person is quite principled. ’
The reason why he is so familiar is also related to his "fishing plan".
Because Akbin is a core member of the "Mutual Aid Association", and Chen Lun is very sure that he has now been promoted to [Sequence 6], but it is not [Natural Faction Sequence 6 - Berry Picker], but a natural faction that has been lost for a long time. branching pathways.
‘If I remember correctly, he is [Sequence 6-Pox Man]. ’
Chen Lun thought to himself.
After he incorporated the circus, he did not change the name in order to attract the mutual aid association to investigate. The reason was that he knew the organization very well and had already planned how to join.
The mutual aid association may be angry because Chen Lun incorporated the circus, but Chen Lun is more willing to believe that they will accept his bargaining chip.
The Mutual Aid Association has a core elite group called the "Murder Club", which is full of very powerful killers. The "Black Knife Brotherhood", which is also a breakaway from the Mutual Aid Association, is far different from them.
One characteristic of the Murder Club is that unlike other members of the mutual aid association, who believe in the God of Conspiracy, "Old Man Buried," they believe in the Angel of Conspiracy, "Conrad."
The witness of the "Conspiracy Contract" that Chen Lun has been using is this angel!
He has a creed, and that is——
"Give me wine, give me murder."
All members of the Murder Club will follow this credo.
This is also a potential reason why Chen Lun chose [Bartender] in the first place. If he could brew a rare treasure, he could give it to the Murder Club in exchange for the help of a strong person.
‘Akbin’s appearance may mean that the Mutual Aid Association has begun to take action... I have to brew a bottle of wine as soon as possible to serve as a stepping stone to join the Murder Club. ’ The character "Akbin Korver" is a supporting role in the book friend Qi Yue Wuyi~
