Arrodes didn't seem to know either, and just waited quietly.
Two minutes later, Lilith said in an uncertain tone, "One hundred... one hundred... one hundred and one?"
"That's correct."
Lilith breathed a sigh of relief at first, and then became proud: "Hehe, Miss Lilith is so smart that she won't be stumped by this kind of question!"
"Any questions, young lady who has the same name as the great spirit?"
Your name... is quite unique.
"there is none left."
Lilith shook her head and jumped into Edward's arms, "Let's go, Edward."
"Okay, see you later Adros."
When he walked out of the room, Dirac was waiting not far away. "How is it, Mr. Edward?"
"I already know what I want to know."
"That's great. Is there anything else I can help you with?"
"No more, go and get busy. Thank you very much."
As soon as Edward walked out of the church door, Lilith asked in panic, "Oh, where is my pendant?"
She lowered her head and hooked her neck with her little paws - sure enough, the little pendant was gone.
"It must have fallen into that room when I was counting just now. I'll go get it!"
After saying that, she jumped down and ran back quickly.
"Why."
Edward shook his head helplessly, "This little guy..."
Just as he was about to follow, an endless gray-white mist suddenly appeared before his eyes.
It's Mr. Fool.
On the other side,
Lilith quickly ran back the same way, then skillfully opened the door and found the fallen pendant on the ground.
But she did not leave immediately. Instead, she jumped onto the table again and looked at Arrodes seriously and asked:
"I want to know, does Chrismona really mean well to me? If so, why?"
...
In the boundless sea of gray fog, the figure of the Hanged Man Alger emerged. He maintained a pious and respectful posture and said:
"Dear Mr. Fool, please tell Mr. Gaota that I can get the extraordinary item that can resist fatal damage tonight. -山?叶′屋- ￠耕,薪·醉~全-But I don't have that much money on hand now. Can Mr. Gaota pay in advance? I will also charge half of the reward."
"The final price I have agreed on is 7,200 pounds, and the other half of the payment is 300 pounds, a total of 7,500 pounds."
This is the end of Alger's picture content.
Edward trusted the members of the Tarot Club, even the Hanged Man who had the most ideas, so he replied, "Sure, I will offer the money to you when I get home later. Praise you, Mr. Fool."
Mr. Fool's figure flashed by in the gray fog, leaving behind a plain "hmm".
Then Edward's vision returned to normal. "Tsk, luckily I'm outside the church, otherwise you, the evil god, would have jumped around in front of the righteous god again."
"Edward, I'm back!"
At this time, Lilith ran over and landed accurately in Edward's arms with one jump. She threw the pendant into Edward's palm: "Help Miss Lilith tie it again."
"Okay~"
He put the pendant on her and tied a bow around it. "Okay, it's so beautiful!"
"Yes!"
Lilith nodded happily, "Where are we going next?"
"Let's go home first."
...
15 Minsk Street.
Klein came down from the gray fog, still thinking about the large stack of banknotes he had just handed over to the Hanged Man, his eyes reddened. \n\i,y/u_e?d`u`.?c′o¨m`
7,500 pounds!
How long will it take me to make so much money?
If it weren't for the need to maintain Mr. Fool's status, I would have to charge them a fee every time they trade through my Gray Mist!
It is said that building a platform is the most profitable, and Klein has indeed "earned" a lot of secret knowledge, but so far, he has not made much money.
"Why."
Klein sighed. The jobs he had received in the past few days were just small jobs like helping people find dogs, investigating mistresses, and accompanying reporters to the East District docks. After working hard for a few days, the total salary was less than 50 pounds.
In fact, he had a commission on hand with a reward of up to 1,000 pounds - to help Prince Edessak find the missing maid and investigate the real cause of Talim's death.
But that involved matters of the royal family and the nobility after all, especially when he later learned from Captain Dunn that the person who had commissioned him to investigate Prince Edessak was a witch - the one who had committed the Muxu tragedy in Tingen.
Without thinking, you know that this place must be full of dangers.
Klein took out the topaz for divination again, and the result was the same as when he was above the gray fog. There was danger, but it was not serious.
"How about... give it a try? If you find any danger, you should act fast! Otherwise, it will take you forever to get the money to buy the materials for the faceless man."
After struggling for a while, Klein finally made a decision. "It's 1,000 gold pounds after all."
...
The Apostle of Desire Belia had already left Backlund and headed for the sea. With his malicious perception of danger, if he went directly to them, they would surely have slipped away, so this matter could only be put aside for the time being.
But once Belia successfully advances to a Sequence 4 Devil, he will be in big trouble!
All Edward could do was to report it in advance, hoping that when Belia returned to Backlund one day, the churches would be more supportive.
At noon, Edward chose a small roadside restaurant in the Cherwood area and ordered a stew with toast. During the process, Lilith tried to throw her dried rat into the pot many times, but was stopped by Edward every time.
"Lilith, they are running a shop and doing business. It's not nice to throw a rat into their pot."
"oh."
Lilith blinked her eyes and said, "Then you can help me stew it tonight, stew it with the mutton!"
"…Don't you think it's more fulfilling to do it yourself?"
She looked down at her paws, "I can't do it."
"Try magic?"
"I haven't learned it yet."
"Little stupid cat!"
She was anxious at the time, "Ms. Lilith is not stupid!"
Lilith's beard trembled, as if she had made up her mind, "I have to digest the potion quickly and advance to Sequence 7!"
"Come on~"
"snort!"
At this time, a beautiful woman with long chestnut hair and wearing a women's shirt with a lace flower bow tie, a knee-length gray skirt and a pair of long leather boots, a soft hat with fine black gauze hanging down, and a beautiful woman with long chestnut hair came over.
She sat down next to Edward and took off her bonnet. "Mind if I sit here?"
"Well, you're already sitting."
"Thanks."
Bernadette's outfit today was relatively "normal". Influenced by Emperor Roselle, her previous outfits were somewhat... how to put it, strange, or non-mainstream?
She asked the boss for another set of cutlery, picked up a fork and unceremoniously took out a piece of soft lamb from the stew pot, and began to eat it in small bites: "Hmm, it tastes good."
Tsk, this mysterious queen seems to be becoming more and more distant from me.
Chapter 281 Demon Wolf, You Have Eight Legs
"Your Majesty the Mysterious Queen, have you not been back to the sea recently?"
Bernadette nodded. "Well, I've been waiting for the opportunity to advance to Sequence 2. The last time I predicted for you, I saw a possibility. It's in Backlund."
The ceremony for the Secret Peeper to advance from Sequence 3 to Sequence 2 is to prevent a disaster involving high-level forces. If the smog incident still breaks out, it will definitely be a disaster involving high-level forces.
"Can you see exactly when that disaster occurred and exactly what happened?"
"cannot."
Bernadette's azure eyes suddenly became deep, "I can only see a disaster full of variables and unknowns."
She smiled and said, "This is exactly the difficulty of advancing to Sequence 2. I can predict most things, but once it comes to my advancement ceremony, the future becomes vague and unknown. I think this should be the interference of the high-level forces involved."
"All right."
Bernadette put down her fork and asked casually, "Has Bonois looked for you?"
"???"
Edward was stunned for a moment before he realized, "So, you asked him to come and say hello to me?"
I spent a long time trying to figure out what Steam Girl means.
"That's right."
She lifted her chin and said, "You should know Bonois' current condition."
"Well, I guess I've heard of it."
"That's why I asked him to come to you, to see if you can awaken some of his humanity."
Edward was stunned. What...was this logic?
You have to know that Bonova lost his humanity and only had divinity left when the Emperor was alive. At that time, Roselle was completely helpless and even suspected that Steam Princess deliberately used her young son as a hostage to threaten him, which led to the breakup between the two later.
