Mystery: Start with the Reader

Tudor...looking at the name on the metal plate, Abner thought for a moment and took out the "Mutated Tudor Badge", a level 1 sealed object he controlled.

This badge was obtained from a cliff on the Blue Mountain Island where Bayam is located. It is an extraordinary item formed by the characteristics of the "Fallen Earl".

And Abner has confirmed from Lilith that this badge was brought by Felipe... and Giuseppe Castilla, the senior time traveler, from the underground ruins where the Red Angel was hiding.

Abner turned over the metal plate and turned the side without writing upwards. There was an artificial depression there.

Put the "Tudor's Mutated Badge" into the depression, and the two immediately fit together tightly.

This should be a set of badge nameplates. Judging from the fact that the metal plates have not been taken into the "underworld", there may still be a strong spiritual imprint left on them...

This brand may even come from the "Blood Emperor" himself!

Maybe there are some secrets hidden...

Abner thought for a moment and made an active "prophecy."

Soon, he got a revelation:

"Andorra."

Andorra? This seems to be a free city at the junction of Intis and Sehgal. Although it belongs to Sehgal in name, it is actually an autonomous territory and a buffer zone between the two countries.

Because this city faces the Sea of ​​Mist to the west and the Andorra Mountains to the east, it has rich natural resources, convenient transportation, and low tax rates. Therefore, it is a gathering place for adventurers, which is somewhat similar to Bayam's positioning. .

Recalling the relevant information he had read during his "Erudition" stage, Abner guessed that the badge nameplate might be a key item in one of Tudor's ruins.

During the "War of the Four Emperors", the Tudor Empire was established on the land that is now Intis, so it makes sense that it really left behind ruins...

In addition, according to the original work, the declining Pound family was a branch of the Tuduo family who changed their names to escape pursuit. It is very likely that these nameplates and badges were brought to Backlund by them...

Do they think the badge is the "key" to the ruins beneath Williams Street? This is simply the wrong place to look... No wonder the ending is so miserable.

However, how did the "gatekeeper" get the "nameplate" that might bear the spiritual imprint of the "Blood Emperor"? Why did he chase Hazel's metal arm when he lost control?

Just as Abner was thinking about it, Hazel also came forward. She glanced at the nameplate and subconsciously read it: "Alistair Tudor?"

Miss, have you been in contact with Xio so much that you even picked up on her habit of reading whatever you read?

This is ancient Hermetic language with power, and it also has the spiritual imprint of the owner of this name. If I hadn't made the seal as soon as I got started, I'm afraid there would have been some big commotion!

After a few slanders, Abner deliberately kept a straight face, warned Hazel seriously, and then told her that the name belonged to "Blood Emperor".

Next, Abner checked Hazel's metal arm again and found that the spirit in it should be the remnant soul that was kneaded together by someone with extraordinary abilities, and it had a new personality. There was nothing special about it. Just put it down for now.

After all, Hazel is already a believer of the Mother Earth, and the metal arm was made by Crossfia's husband, so there shouldn't be any issues with safety.

After doing this, Abner held a ceremony on the spot, prayed to the "Goddess of the Night" and reported the incident. At the same time, he helped Klein and asked him whether his arrangement for Daley Dunn and his wife was feasible.

As soon as the ceremony ended, Abner saw two more "circles" on the parchment on which he had written his prayers.

lock up? The first circle represents "knowing about this", and the second circle means that he agreed to Klein's plan? Well, as the "Mother of Secrets", the goddess can give such a "clear" reply, which is already very favoring me...

Nodding thoughtfully, Abner first packed up the altar, and then released the Machts, servants, and housekeepers.

They are all ordinary people. They have been affected by the power of the "underworld" before, and their spiritual bodies are a little unstable, so they have not yet woken up.

This situation is not serious. After the "Nighthawk" performs "Requiem", there should be no problem.

Since he was still nominally in the Tusk City of Intis, in order not to expose his ability to "teleport", Abner was not prepared to meet the "Nighthawks" here, so he handed over the bell that summoned his messenger. He gave it to Hazel, and after giving her a few words of advice, he performed the "spiritual world travel" again and left here.

Hazel put away the bell, looked at the place where Abner disappeared and sighed, then returned to her parents, waiting for the arrival of the "Nighthawk".

Soon, a team led by Ms. Daly arrived at the "Elk Manor".

As a victim, Hazel concealed most of the facts, only saying that she relied on the metal arms made by the Church of the Earth Mystic God to barely rescue her parents and family, but the main building of her family's manor was dragged into the "underworld".

These words were half true and half false. The "Nighthawks" did not think there was a problem, but were very sympathetic to her experience. Only Dai Li stared at the metal arm for a while, showing a thoughtful expression.

But Hazel received a hint of "acting" feedback at this time...

It turns out that it’s not just money, but defrauding others’ sympathy and trust, is it also considered “fraud”?

…

Pulitzer Harbour, in a basement.

A young man wearing a red-striped robe and a hood casually was smoking a cigarette.

At this time, he seemed to sense something, with a sarcastic smile on his face, and said: "You want to trap me in that body with a nameplate bearing the spiritual imprint of 'Tudor'? If Alistar is still alive, that's right It's possible, but now that he has been dead for almost two thousand years, how can he still have that ability?"

Before he finished speaking, a bloody gash suddenly opened on his left cheek, and he made a sound:

"Would you die if you didn't brag? Who cursed heartily after discovering that nameplate before?"

A mouth also appeared on the right cheek, echoing: "That's right! Also, Medici, can you stop smoking? I don't want to feel anything from the followers of the True Creator!"

"This is a man's favorite... Oh, I forgot, you two are not serious men." Medici grinned, but still put out the cigarette butt.

After all, with both cheeks open, the cigarette cannot be smoked.

"I don't know who set up the trap... Otherwise, by some coincidence, the 'Eternal Witch' just happened to find Alistar's nameplate and handed it over to the 'janitor' she found...

"You want to use me to get rid of the person who controls her, and then use this arrangement to counter me?

"Tsk, tsk, the calculation is precise, but I don't plan to play with her anymore.

"However, no matter who is behind the scheme, I think it will benefit me... As long as they no longer try to use small means to control me, it doesn't matter if I am used by them. After all, this is probably aimed at that paranoid guy. !”

Before Medici finished speaking, both cheeks said in unison:

"It's our benefit!"
