Chapter 225 Mission
October 2nd, night.
Gilan is in the master bedroom of the rental apartment, stretching his fists and feet, constantly testing the changes after being promoted to level 2.
Phew! Whoosh! !
He stood upright on the spot, opened his arms to the left and right, and struck in the air in front of him.
His hands were at their peak, and even if he just casually waved his fists or knives, he could only see a blurry afterimage.
A little distance can even create the illusion that "the arms disappear".
The terrifying screams that broke through the air kept ringing in the room.
Suddenly, Jilan stopped and stood still.
He lowered his head and looked at his palms.
He looked thoughtful.
‘The degree of physical fitness improvement of “anchors” is the same as that of “actors”, not much, about 20%. ’
Gilan smiled again.
‘But this is only for ordinary mystics...because my foundation is the "over-limit" level, which can compete with the second-level mystics of the body path. ’
‘The increase of 20% will be amplified by the increase of the four secret skills of the White Cross... By then, the actual combat power I can exert will probably exceed the ordinary level 2! ’
'What's more, I have a trump card...the "anchor's" unique ability to "release humanity"! ’
Gilan was once again unsure of the extent of his own strength.
If the "Mad King" Iros in the Soul Kingdom is released, can he defeat the level 3 "Glow" mystic?
Gilan is not completely sure.
But he firmly believed that even a third-level mystic could never kill him in a head-on confrontation...
After spending more than half an hour, he continued to get familiar with his stronger body.
Jilan washed up, changed into clean silk pajamas, and sat at the desk.
The colored light burst out in his hand, and a square bone carving board twenty-five centimeters wide and forty centimeters long appeared on the table.
It was the "Lotherth Ouija Board" he obtained from "Human Will".
Jilan flicked his hand, and with the twisting of colored light, another bottle with a thin neck and a fat belly appeared on the table.
This is the small half bottle of "Mysterious Dust" left when he was refining "Green Gunpowder". There is about 2 ink units left in it.
According to the prompt in the colorful entry, 1 ink unit can offset the disaster penalty of a failed divination.
This bottle of "mysterious dust" is enough for Jilan to divine twice.
But before the official divination, he got up and went to the kitchen and brought a handful of sage and rosemary.
Gillen lit the sage and rosemary with the gold-plated lighter belonging to Viscount Lobben, and placed them in two brass vessels, one on the left and right of the Ouija board.
Four more white candles were lit and placed at the four corners of the Ouija board.
Boom!
Jilan opened the cork and sprinkled 1 ink unit of occult dust onto the Ouija board.
Under the illumination of the candlelight, the gray-black powder gradually sank into the Ouija board like melting snowflakes. This makes the entire bone carving board present a shiny and coquettish beauty.
At this time, he just picked up the triangular bone piece.
The surface of the bone fragment is covered with fine and exquisite patterns, and a round hole is hollowed out in the center to reveal the scarlet lettering on the Ouija board.
Crack.
Gilan placed the bone fragment against the Ouija board.
The smooth and cold Ouija board is engraved with thirty ancient Hiru letters, arranged in three rows.
Above, there is a row of Guhiru numbers from 0 to 9.
Below are the two juxtaposed words "yes" and "no".
Jilan took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and let her mind go.
A long while.
"The current position of 'Miss Rabbit' Jenna Clare, the daughter of July Baptist Church President Adura Clare."
He spoke softly.
call.
A gust of wind blew from nowhere, swaying the candlelight.
Jilan suddenly felt that there was an invisible force pushing the bone fragments under his fingertips to move slowly on the Ouija board.
He felt a chill in his heart.
Soon, he tentatively turned on his spiritual vision.
However, under that "fantasy" vision, there was nothing around the Ouija board or even himself.
‘Is it an invisible force, or is my gnosis not enough to pry into the secrets of the Ouija board...’
Jilan secretly thought.
He temporarily put aside his doubts and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the divination ceremony.
The bone fragment pressed by the fingers moved a total of nineteen times.
Gillan remembers this trajectory clearly.
Wait until the bone pieces stop moving. He then opened his eyes, pieced together the letters on the Ouija board according to the tracks in his mind, and murmured:
"North...Muse, Upper...Street, Tietjens... ...Big hotel?”
Gilan took a long breath.
He wasn't sure about the accuracy of Ouija board divination, but Gillan decided to go there and find out.
This woman deserves to die if she dares to send someone to harm him.
“This big hotel seems to be opposite the Silver Lizard Club?”
Gilan recalled for a moment and remembered the location of the hotel.
He thought that he would set out to find it tomorrow.
Just cleared the table.
Buzzing.
Buzzing.
On the bedside table, the "Alchemy Hotline" suddenly vibrated.
Jilan walked over quickly and mentioned the "hotline".
"Hello?"
"Blood Owl, there is an important task for you inside 'Midnight Rose'."
As soon as the microphone was put to my ear, White Sage came from inside A magnetic voice.
His tone was unprecedentedly serious and serious, which made Gilan cheer up.
“This is the first esoteric mission you will complete as the first member of the ‘Thorns’, please pay attention...”
"Huh?" Ji Lan's eyes narrowed. "Mr. White Sage, please speak."
"Tomorrow, October 3, at eight o'clock in the evening, there will be a grand dinner at the Tietjens Hotel."
"On the surface, it was a birthday dinner hosted by Lord Crook Taylor for his daughter Dedere, but in fact, it was a large-scale ceremony called 'Black Mass' secretly planned by the July Baptist Church."
"The true identity of Adura Clare, the president of the Baptist Church, is the senior host of the 'Golden Bough of Dawn'. She intends to obtain the gift of the 'Mother of Reproduction' through the 'Black Mass', so that her own golden seeds can bloom. The 'bud-bearing person' was promoted to the 'sloughing-yi' class."
After White Sage's concise explanation, Ji Lan learned that the "bud-bearing person" was a higher level of "complexity". Mother” believer.
Its strength is already comparable to that of Jiushi.
Therefore, placed inside the "Golden Branch of Dawn", it definitely belongs to the high-level ranks.
"Blood Owl, I need you to find a way to attend this birthday dinner, and then intervene in the 'Black Mass' after it starts, and stop the ceremony as much as possible."
White Sage Shen vocal channel.
"Of course, I will send other people to help you. And the only thing you have to do is destroy the ritual symbols and formations they arranged, and cut off contact."
"What is their strength?"
Gilan raised a more concerned question.
"There are at least five to six 'black-collar deacons' within the Baptist Church, who are master-level combat forces. The 'Golden Branch of Dawn' should also send several 'bud-bearers' to assist Adura ."
Sage Bai thought for a while before saying.
"Adura Claire is the strongest. She is already a 'bud bearer' with three gold seeds, comparable to a third-level spiritual mystic... You must not be impulsive. Once you fight, , she can kill you in ten seconds.”
"This is just the most ideal situation...at the 'Black Mass' scene, the level of danger will only be higher."
"Yes, I understand." Gillan responded.
On the other end of the phone, White Sage was silent for a few seconds, and then said:
"Blood Owl, this task is actually a bit dangerous for you, you can refuse to perform it."< br>
“But I’ll lose my membership, right?”
Gillan laughed.
"It's not that serious." White Sage smiled. "It will only lower the internal evaluation of you at 'Midnight Rose'... Also, I forgot to tell you that if the mission is completed, there will be a mysterious reward."
"Okay, I'll take it."
Jilan replied casually.
On the other end of the phone, Sage Bai was startled.
It seems that he didn't expect the blood owl to agree so simply.
Seeing this, Sage Bai was also secretly pleased.
"Although the mission is important, you must also pay attention to your own safety. If nothing can be done, leave the scene immediately."
He instructed.
"The manpower I sent will contact you at that time. But before the official start of the 'Black Mass', you are not allowed to have any direct contact to avoid arousing suspicion."
"Understood."
Gilan agreed, with deep eyes.
It makes sense that the location of the Ouija board divination is at the Tietjens Hotel.
‘Just in time, let’s take advantage of the mission and deal with you together... Miss Jenna Claire. ’
