The Modern Age of the Mysterious

Chapter 186: "Queen" and "Wizard"

"The Modern Age of the Mysterious (!

"A task related to the Daedalus Foundation?" Moonlight suppressed his excitement, and he couldn't tell whether it was excitement or curiosity in his eyes, "What is the task assigned by Arthur Merlin?!"

Evan Burns has also conducted a lot of investigations on this mysterious foundation. Seeing what Sean said, a pair of pale blue eyes stared at the captain.

Sean pressed the palm of his hand, motioned Moonlight not to be in a hurry, and said at a steady rate: "To explain this task, I have to start with the conversation with Arthur Merlin...

Sean's thoughts returned to the messy office when he was talking with Arthur Merlin.

After finishing the task issued by the association, Arthur Merlin took a sip of whiskey whose ice cubes were almost melted, and said, "Sean, in addition to this task, I have a personal commission for you to complete..."

"What?" Sean raised his head and asked, hearing the seriousness in Merlin's tone.

Arthur Merlin did not answer directly, but made a somewhat strange gesture.

He spread his palms out, holding his hands out of thin air, as if reading an invisible book.

Sean was struck by lightning in his heart, but he didn't show the slightest inner turmoil on the outside.

He didn't speak, just looked at Merlin quietly - he didn't understand why this Ace-level powerhouse made the secret gesture of "Candlelight Reading Club".

Sean had a little guess, but he wasn't sure.

So just wait and see what happens.

"Sean..." Merlin replied to his lazy posture and state, looking at Sean with admiration and understanding, "I think we are a kind of person.

"It's an honor to be in the book club with you."

Merlin said this, and Sean had the answer in his heart - the independent detective in front of him was also one of the members of the Candlelight Reading Club.

"Why do you say I'm a member of the book club?" Sean still didn't admit it, and used a specious question to test Merlin.

Merlin smiled and said: "That beautiful and delicate Bingzhuren... Others may not know her origin, but they can't hide it from me.

"That's the legacy of the president. You can activate it, which explains a lot of problems."

Olivia's existence is easy to conceal from the eyes of the uninformed.

However, those in the know can see many clues at a glance.

Especially the one in front of him, perhaps the person with the strongest observation and reasoning ability in the Quest Association.

"Apart from his own eyelashes, nothing can escape Merlin's eyes." This wisecrack circulating in the association was not just a joke.

Merlin pulled out a brass pendant from nowhere.

Candlelight and open book.

Slightly smaller than Sean's pendant.

Sean also took out the pendant with a slight patina in the gap from his close pocket.

Compared to Merlin's pendant, Sean's looks more ancient and humble.

Merlin suddenly leaned over and stared at the pendant, as if he didn't care about anything for the first time with a shocked look on his face: "How did you join the club?!"

The gap in strength made Sean know that Merlin didn't need to use such a clumsy method.

However, his own membership process was related to the concealment of the old man Pompeii, so Sean hesitated for a moment and didn't say it directly.

Merlin raised his hand and smiled bitterly: "If you care, you will be confused... I shouldn't ask such a question.

"You don't have to say, or even tell me if he's still alive.

"My status is too advanced - keeping me in the dark is the best protection for him."

Merlin's eyes flickered: "Just know that his inheritance is with you."

"Fate, it really is a beautiful long poem woven by the gods..." The detective laughed and fell into memories and sighs.

After a while, his eyes returned to dullness, and he continued: "The personal task I want to entrust to you involves the life and death of another member of the book club."

After joining the club, Xiao En received his own research on ancient books and the support of Bingzhu people.

The two harvests provided him with great help in rescuing Arya.

In addition, although there are only a few ties, Sean has also regarded the old Pompeii who led his book selection as his mentor.

Not only that, but he also vaguely felt that the reading club might have a mission that involved a bigger picture.

Therefore, when he heard that this matter was at stake in the life of a colleague, his attention was suddenly focused.

"For some reason, I can't tell you the names involved in this mission directly...

"But I believe that with your wisdom, after entering Ocean City, you will definitely be able to deduce the characters involved in the mission in a short period of time."

After Sean nodded, Arthur continued: "This matter involves factional fighting within the Daedalus Foundation.

"Our colleague, who belongs to the book club, is one of the core backbones of Daedalus, and her code name is 'Queen'.

"The Queen found out that the 'Wizard', the power man of the Foundation, was conducting some kind of conspiracy...

"The wizard is trying a special 'path to becoming a god'. If his plan succeeds, it will cause damage to the existing balance order, jeopardizing the reading club and the mission of the reading club to pass on for thousands of years."

"What is the mission of the book club?" Sean asked with narrowed eyes.

"Forgive me for not being able to tell yet, but you'll find out later—perhaps after this mission.

"The Queen has informed us that she will find a way to stop the wizard.

"Should be right before or after you enter Ocean City, she will carry out her plan - steal the Foundation's treasure trove."

"Treasure? What is that?"

Arthur shook his head: "I haven't seen it either, this is the original message from the Queen's message.

"Although your explorer level is low, I know that you are the kind of person with great potential and possibility.

"So, as a peer of the book club, I hope you can find the queen, ensure her survival, and help her escape Ocean City with the treasure house..."

Daedalus, "Queen", "Wizard", treasure house...

Sean's head swelled with the names.

In silence, he sorted out his goal for Ocean City this time:

First of all, from my own point of view, rescuing Aaliyah must be the highest priority.

In order to make up for his faults, he must complete the task assigned by the association, which is to find out the reason for the disappearance of Charlie Jojo.

Then, in Daedalus, Ocean City, there will be an event that may cause environmental turmoil. In this big event, Sean must find the "queen" and help her leave Ocean City with the so-called "treasure house".

"Arya, Jojo and the 'Queen'... The three tasks seem to be independent." Sean sat in the chair and looked straight ahead, his hands folded under his mouth, immersed in his own world of thinking, "However, they There must be some connection between...

"When I try to break through in one direction, there will definitely be two other tasks involved...

While Sean told Moonlight and Evan, his thoughts returned to the present.

"As long as you find the key to the matter, you can find the shortest path in the journey planning to climb a mountain and reach the top of three peaks..."

When talking about the content related to the candlelight reading club, Sean skipped and didn't say anything - teammates and the reading club have nothing to do with the reading club for the time being, and there is no need to increase the volume of the narrative.

He just said that the Queen is Arthur's old friend and an important part of an independent detective's overall plan...

After listening to Sean's remarks, Evan nodded: "I agree with your judgment - what happened in Ocean City must be related to each other, and these two tasks must be related to the big goal of rescuing Aaliyah."

It was said that it was to make up for the mistakes after half the New Testament. Ivan and Moonlight came to Ocean City, and a large part of the reason still wanted to help Sean.

Sean has always been grateful for that.

Ivan pondered for a while, and said lightly: "The clues of the missing person are hard to find, and rashly asking about the whereabouts of Arya and Qiaoqiao in Ocean City~www.readwn.com~ may instead attract the attention of the enemy...

"If you want to talk about the entry point of the whole thing, it should be this 'queen'..."

"She is the core backbone of Daedalus, if Ocean City has any secrets, she will definitely master it.

"and……"

Sean was very euphoric about the synchronization of his thoughts, and he said a little excitedly: "Also, she and her team are our potential powerful allies, if they can cooperate, there is a greater chance of getting out of this maze! "

The four exchanged glances, and in the quiet room, they all nodded slightly...
