Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

Chapter 40 Communication and Blame

"There's something wrong there."

Klein pointed to the step separating the living room and the dining room. Dunn followed his gesture and looked over. He soon noticed something strange because of his extremely high inspiration. He ordered Klein to perform a divination, and Klein immediately took off his cuffs. Citrine pendant inside, holding silver chain with left hand.

His eyes turned dark, and it returned to normal after he silently recited the divination sentence seven times. The citrine pendant was rotating clockwise at a constant speed, and the amplitude was not small.

Klein immediately nodded to the others: "Even if there is danger, it can be resolved smoothly, or even if there is no danger."

Dunn wore the mutated holy emblem of the sun on his left chest, and searched for mechanisms near that step.After rewrapping the half of Dawn and putting it back in her arms, Esther bent down to pick up the iron glove, and carefully brushed off the dust on it.Frye was still holding a pistol and staring intently at the surroundings, guarding against enemies that might appear at any time.

Seeing this, Klein cheered up, pulled out the revolver again, and took on the guard job like Frye.

Within a few minutes, Dunn touched something, and the floor at the steps opened with the sound of a switch, revealing the colder and dirty stairs below.Dunn glanced at it, took off the holy emblem of the sun on his chest without hesitation, and threw it directly through the secret door.

Those inspiring and uncomfortable chills were instantly dispelled. After waiting for a minute, Dunn ordered: "Klein will follow me down to investigate, and Frye and Esther will stay on top to prevent other accidents."

The final investigation did not have any twists and turns. A few minutes later, Klein came up to take turns with Frye, so that Frye, who had more professional experience in autopsy, went down to check the injuries on the corpse in the coffin. Although the environment in the dark room was gloomy, there was nothing wrong with it. Dangerous, Esther did not insist on following into the secret room.

She chatted with Klein for a while, and learned a little about the situation in the secret room. Even though she had no idea about the person who took the skull, Esther made a guess similar to Dunn's about what he might be planning.

"The remains of Extraordinary people may contain very powerful power," Esther lowered her voice, and showed Klein the armored gloves on her hand, "Sometimes these extraordinary powers will be integrated into external objects, and they will become charcoal. Those things behind the Nice Gate. I can hear them whispering, the stronger the power or the heavier the obsession, the more vivid the emotions or thoughts contained in those voices."

"Is this the law of Extraordinary characteristics?" Klein had never heard of this aspect, so he couldn't help asking.

But Esther shook her head: "I never told anyone else about this. Do you still remember the thing the captain and the others found from Riel Bieber? That thing also gave me a feeling similar to Extraordinary characteristics, almost like It’s like some kind of energy conservation, what should this be called, Extraordinary Science?”

But some seem to be quite delicious.Of course Esther would not say this.

But Klein quickly thought of some of his own experiences. He remembered the tuxedo clown who was killed by him in that battle, and the condensed brand on his body when the clown transformed into a dead body in the autopsy room—that weird blue clown of blood cells.

Extraordinary power will automatically bear it?Really amazing science.

Klein frowned: "So you can hear this now, is there any sound on the glove?"

Hearing this, Esther closed her eyes with her gloves in her hands, felt silently for a while, and nodded again: "Yes, there is a voice similar to that evil spirit, with many curses of resentment and hatred."

Klein also imitated Esther's appearance, but he didn't feel anything except the sound of the castle's wind leaking and his own heartbeat.Klein recalled the light yellow light cocoon on Ademisor's body: "It really is a special ability. I think that your ability to suppress other sealed items is also related to this ability."

"I think so too."

Ten minutes later, Dunn and Fry walked back down the steps to the hall before the sun had completely sunk into the sky and ushered in the night.Dunn fumbled the mechanism and closed the secret door. Frye briefly described the results of his autopsy: "He died of poisoning, and the marks on his neck were within the last three months."

The job of sorting out clues and reasoning was handed over to the Nighthawks. Esther had given up thinking. She quietly held the gloves and walked out beside Dunn.

-

A few people rushed back to the center of Ramud Town before dark, booked three rooms in the hotel, and the members who got the sealed item "3-0782" needed to take it for a walk outside the town where no one was around. Rotate every two hours.Dunn simply didn't arrange a shift for Esther, because she had to carry the holy emblem of the sun on the way back, and the other three wanted to inquire about some clues in the town, so they let her stay alone in the hotel to rest and take care of what they had. black glove.

Esther couldn't help but said: "Actually, I don't need to sleep much, I can stay up late. It's nothing to help look at that badge."

Dunn shook his head: "I'm just worried about you running around outside the town."

This reason is reasonable. After dinner, Esther was the only one left in the hotel room, which made her a little depressed besides being bored. She took a deck of cards and sat directly on the wooden floor Play a game of draw solitaire.

Soon, another voice came out of Esther's pocket: "What are you doing? I don't seem to have seen this way of playing cards."

Esther replied casually: "I'm killing time. Haven't you seen it? It's just a way of playing in my hometown, suitable for single-player games."

The little bug poked its head out, and after Esther stretched out her finger, it climbed up and asked Esther to put it on the floor. The little bug looked at the cards on the field curiously: "Your luck seems to be It sucks, the numbers can't be connected in this way."

"Oh? You actually understand the rules. Generally speaking, this game should use a lot of cards mixed together, so that the probability of number connection will be higher. If you don't look at suits, this sentence is still a bit hopeful."

Esther messed up all the poker on the ground, and resolutely gave up the game: "Forget it, my luck really isn't very good."

"Didn't you really invent this game?" The little bug stretched his body curiously, rolled around on the card, and turned over a Jack of Spades.

"No. I don't have such a good brain to invent games. It's possible for me to invent new recipes."

"Why do you like to eat so much? Obviously, what you eat is ordinary food. As long as you consume energy, it will disappear. They can't improve you."

Esther frowned, and said seriously: "But people should eat! People are iron rice and steel. If you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry."

The little bug shook his head: "Do you think you are human?"

"Of course, although I won't foolishly say that I am an ordinary person, I am of course still a human! One nose and two eyes, why not."

"...According to your description, cattle and sheep are also like this."

Esther rubbed her chin, leaned her back on the bedpost, relaxed her spirit, and replied casually: "But I can taste the sweetness that makes me happy, and the feeling of fullness that is relieved. I can I can choose what I like to eat more, and I can also enjoy the touch of delicious food. These make me feel that eating is very meaningful, even if it is a bird, there will be things that it likes and dislikes, right?"

The little bug was silent for a long time, then arched his body and flipped another card, which was a Q of Hearts.

Esther stared at Xiao Chongzi for a moment: "Are you hungry? Do you want me to order some food from the front desk and let them deliver it? I have money with me, so I don't need to ask the captain to reimburse me."

The little bug's voice became much quieter, and it seemed to be thinking about something: "No, it's you, not me, that Heiye wants to support. I haven't experienced it for a long time... the kind of happiness you just feel because of eating." .”

Not for Extraordinary characteristics, not for physiological needs that are no longer needed, just simply eat something that suits your taste, and you can feel the most basic material happiness, just like an ordinary mortal.

For some reason, the little bug remembered the cake that Esther gave it, which was wider than its body.Looking back now, the taste of that cake is really not fantastic, it can't be served on the table of any high-end banquet, but it tastes good.

Esther hesitated for a moment: "Do you want me to share some food with you in the future?"

"No need," Xiao Chongzi raised half of his body suddenly, looking straight at Esther with concerned eyes, "I am a mythical creature, and I no longer need to eat to maintain my life since a long time ago .”

So put away your ignorant concern, childish fool who is so self-righteous, sooner or later you will realize what you really are.

Of course Esther couldn't hear Xiao Chongzi's voice, and the concern in her eyes became even heavier: "But missing out on delicious food is a great pity in life."

The little bug laughed intermittently, and finally it rolled around laughing on the deck until it got stuck on the bottom of a deck of cards.Esther stretched out her right hand and flipped through the King of Clubs, "rescuing" it: "Is what I said so funny?"

"Haha... No, it's just that you're funny, very funny." The little bug clung to Esther's finger and coiled around the base of her index finger, forming a small ring with twelve links.

"Why do you like to laugh at people so much?"

The little bug bit Esther's finger, it didn't hurt very much, it was more like an act of venting his anger: "That's because I can't do anything now, so I can only communicate with you. Your light directly casts me As an extracorporeal circulation, my extraordinary strength has been herded, and my current form is originally your accessory."

Esther took the bug off her finger and spread it out in her palm: "Oh, that's it... Then am I going too far? No wonder you hated me so much before."

"I should applaud you. Congratulations to some idiot for finally knowing the hateful truth. But unfortunately, I don't even have a hand now."

Esther felt quite guilty. She originally thought that the golden finger had robbed the little bug's power, so she had received too much help from the little bug, which made Esther couldn't help asking: "Is there anything wrong?" Can you help me?"

The little bug was silent for a few seconds, then sighed heavily: "Oh, what are you talking about?"

"I was serious."

"But you should ask yourself if there is any way!"

Esther looked away embarrassingly, and touched her hair with the special light hidden: "Well, it seems that none of us know."
