Dorothy's Forbidden Tome

'During the three-year cool-down period, the extraordinary sign of this divination item is likely to be too weak to be noticed or directly turned into an ordinary item. Zhizhi realized it. This is like my puppet imprint. If it is simply painted on a person, there will be no extraordinary traces. Become an extraordinary imprint, which can be detected by Hui Jian Deng.'

Touching her wrist, Dorothy thought of this, since she had experience in operating the puppet mark, she quickly thought of this most likely point.

'Azamu donated the divination props to the Jingliu Church, perhaps because it is on the territory of the church, and Garib dared not do it at will. During the period when Azamu's strength continued to decline due to the curse, he was Gharib is under house arrest, and he can't guarantee whether he can escape alive in the end, so he specially sent the most important divination props here when donating.

Azamu should have planned it like this at the time. If he managed to escape, he would request or exchange the donated divination props from Jingliu Church as a donor. If he could not escape and died in the hands of Gharib, Then the divination will lie here forever, wait until the cooling of the divination props is here for three years, and then the people of the church will take it back immediately after discovering the abnormality. He would rather give this thing to the church than to Garib... .'

Walking through the exhibition halls, Dorothy, who had seen the exhibits one by one, thought in her heart that at this time, among the many exhibits in the huge church museum, there was the divination tool she wanted. But this divination item has no extraordinary characteristics at this time, and Dorothy cannot use extraordinary means to confirm which one is a hidden treasure.

Among the vast number of exhibits, each exhibit may be the divination item, but now Dorothy has no way to confirm it. In her spiritual vision, each exhibit here is useless. Without any trace of abnormality, everything is ordinary.

'Hiss... Azamu has done a great job of keeping secrets, and none of the characteristics of the divination tool has been revealed, so that he doesn't know how to find it now.

'Now if I want to find it, I can only wait for a few more days, until the three-year cooling period of that thing is completely over, and then restore the Extraordinary characteristics, so that I can use extraordinary means to find it, but when the time comes, I will be the first to find it. Find that thing, or will the people of the Church discover it first?"

While thinking, Dorothy continued to walk forward, and before she knew it, she came to a wide open door, and when she walked to the door, the light from it made her Can't help but startled at the position.

Dorothyton looked into the wide gate behind her spot, and then she saw a huge room with a dome. The spherical dome was painted with gorgeous religious paintings, and under the dome was a luxurious palace. Carpet, on the carpet are display cabinets arranged round after round.

And on the apex of the center of the dome in the huge room, there is a faintly flickering flare. This flare Dorothy has seen before, it is the light on the top of the church when she was outside the church.

That is the jewel diamond on Emmanuel's crown to refract the sun's rays. The top of the dome of this huge room is connected with the opening of the church roof. The Emmanuel's crown fixed in the small pavilion on the roof The crown can be seen in this room. The crown of Emanuel is the top decoration of the dome room. The crown of Emanuel emits light to the outside, and it also illuminates the interior of the dome room, which is equivalent to The overhead light in this huge room.

"Damn... the light on the roof can also shine into the room... what kind of design is this..."

Cursing secretly in her heart, Dorothy immediately stepped quickly before the wooden door of the giant dome, so that she would no longer be illuminated by the light in the room. For ordinary people, the light emitted by Emmanuel's crown is just The reflection of the sun, and in Dorothy's spiritual vision, Emanuel's crown is autonomously emitting dangerous detection light all the time.

Beside the dome house, Dorothy, who escaped the detection light, looked at the guide book in her hand, and then found the name and function of this room on the map.

"Crown Hall, a dome hall dedicated to displaying Emmanuel's crown. Emmanuel's crown is placed on the top of the dome, connecting the inside and outside, like the sun in the crown hall. Can be in the crown hall with Emmanuel's crown Among them, the exhibits exhibited together are the most valuable treasures.”

'The coronal hall dedicated to displaying Emmanuel's crown... no wonder...'

Looking at the words in the guidebook, Dorothy nodded knowingly, and suddenly she realized another problem.

'In other words, if Azamu sent the divination props to the Jingliu Church for display, it would fall into the hands of the church after his death so that Gharib would never get it...then he must It is necessary to ensure that the divination props will be discovered by the church immediately after the cooldown period is over, and if the divination props are displayed in other places in Jingliu Church, even after the cooldown period is over, they may not be discovered in time, because even People in the church probably wouldn't open their spiritual probes all day long to see those mortal collections piece by piece.

'Therefore...if Azamu wants the divination item to be discovered immediately after cooling down, then it must be in a state of being probed by the spirit around the clock, and this state...only It can be done in this crowned hall!

"If that prop is being exhibited together with Emmanuel's crown in this crown hall, then after it cools down, it will immediately be illuminated abnormally by Emmanuel's crown!"

Dorothy thought of this, and now she looked at the wooden door in front of her eyes with a little more eagerness.

And at this moment, on the other side of the Coronet Hall, beside another entrance, there are two men in windbreakers standing by the door, secretly observing the Coronet while trying their best to avoid the light inside the door. The scene in the hall.

Chapter 450 Obstruction

Conquer the northern shore of the sea, Adria.

In the Jingliu Church, a famous tourist attraction in Adria, outside the gate of the Coronet Hall, Dorothy is located in a place where the light radiating from the gate cannot reach, and she is admiring the antique with a missing corner in the glass cabinet. She was thinking about the plate, and her eyes scanned the exhibit introduction with the donor's information pasted outside the glass cabinet, but her thoughts were not on this at all.

'The exhibits in the crown hall...are exposed to the crown of Emmanuel all the time. Once there are extraordinary traces in the exhibits, they will be exposed immediately. If Aza Mu Tie's heart is to let the divination tool be donated to the church rather than to Garibu, then it is best to let the divination tool be placed in a place where Garibu dare not easily set foot, and let the divination tool cool down once it is ready. It was completely confiscated by the church, and there is nothing in the entire Jingliu Church that meets this requirement better than this crown hall...

'But the problem now is that if the divination props are placed in the crown hall, not only will it be difficult for Garib's people to get involved, but it will also be difficult for me to enter the investigation. The irradiation is much stronger, whether it is me or the corpse puppet going in for a circle, it is estimated that it will consume quite a lot of 'shadow'.'

While admiring Dorothy around a vase, she thought in her heart that although she already knew the general location of the divination props, she didn't intend to spend a lot of "shadow" to investigate inside for the time being. While watching, she slowly moved away from the gate of the Coronet Hall, and headed towards other places in the Jingliu Church. After turning around in the Jingliu Church several times, she left the church through an exit.

Using the Ring of Obstacles, Dorothy quickly moved away from the Jingliu Church under the light of Emmanuel's crown. After crossing the arch bridge, she left the church square and returned to the urban area. She did not return to the hotel immediately. Instead, I boarded a small boat for sightseeing at a small pier, and then let the boatman take me to visit other places in Adria.

Following the experienced tour guide, Dorothy visited Adria's old lord's mansion, armory, water stage, sinner's bridge and other places, and finally went to Adria's largest library to sit for a while... After traveling solidly for half a day and relaxing seriously for a while, the sun in the sky has gradually set.

At dusk, Dorothy chose a restaurant opened along the waterway to have dinner. Many of the pasta here left a good impression on Dorothy, such as Adria macaroni and Iviga. She likes all the dishes.

Dorothy has been traveling for a while, and has been to many cities in many countries. Generally speaking, the dishes in every country and city are generally satisfactory to her. This may be because Dorothy lived in Puri. After staying for a long time, the reason for the relatively low expectations for food.

After dinner, Dorothy took a boat to visit Adria at night, and finally returned to the hotel where she was staying in the dots of light on both sides of the river. After returning to the room, she took off her shoes and faced the bedding. After lying down for a while, after struggling in her heart for a while, she stood up from the bed with her hands together, put on the slippers beside the bed, and came to the table by the window of the suite. Breathe a sigh of relief.

"It would be fine if this trip is purely for tourism..."

After sighing, Dorothy ended her travel time for the time being, and then started her business in Adria, planning how to get the divination props in the Crown Hall.

'The divination item is most likely stored in the Crown Hall... If I want to get it, I have to remove it from the Crown Hall before the three-year period of the divination item expires Steal it, or it will be discovered by the church and transferred.

The detection efficiency of Emmanuel's Crown in the Crown Hall is very high, but according to my calculations, it is not too high. If it is a quick battle in the Crown Hall, my 'shadow' is It is definitely enough...but the key problem is that I don't know what the divination props look like. There are dozens of exhibits in the crown hall of different sizes, and it is impossible for me to bring them all back. .It takes a lot of time for me to open a locked showcase silently. I don’t know how long it will take to open these dozens of showcases. I don’t have that much time.'

Looking at the church square in the distance through the window, Dorothy thought in her heart that her "shadow" reserves could not support her staying in the Crown Hall for too long, and she couldn't pack all the collections from the Crown Hall back. Under the circumstances, she can only carry out precise theft, but the problem is that Dorothy doesn't know what the divination tool looks like.

'Actually, the names of the donors are written on the labels on all the showcases in the Jingliu Church...If I know the alias Azamu used when he donated the divination props, I can also find the divination in those showcases props, but the question is that the information obtained from Beverly did not mention what alias Azamu used when donating?

"More importantly, I don't know Azamu's alias, but Gharib's people do. If he chooses to forcibly steal things, he will have a much better advantage than me..."

While thinking like this, Dorothy took out her satchel, pulled it open, and took out a bunch of things from it, which was a large roll of newspapers.

Dorothy unfolded the newspapers, and glanced at the dates on them, which were basically from last year, so they were old newspapers.

Dorothy got these old newspapers from the Adria City Library this afternoon, and she was very interested in some old news on them.

"September 1359, 1359, Moran City Museum was stolen...October 1359, 26...Lonia City Museum was stolen, and the stolen cultural relics were donations ...On November [-], [-], the Kaidner Museum was robbed and several artifacts were lost..."

Looking at the news in these newspapers, the average person probably has an image in their minds of a group of thieves who specialize in targeting museums and stealing cultural relics. But Dorothy knows that these thieves are not ordinary people, they are Garib The subordinates of these museums, what they frequently steal from these museums are not ordinary things, but Azamu's divination props.

In order to deceive the public, Azamu donated cultural relics to seven museums under different aliases, and mixed divination props into them. In order to find divination props, Gharib has already stolen six museums outside the Jingliu Church.

According to Beverly's information, at this time in previous years, the Shasha Club was already in the process of preparing for the excavation of the new ruins of the Star Number Book Repair Club, but now they have not moved at all, which proves that Garib is in the first six museums. None of them found what they were looking for. Although the six failures of Garyb appear to be irrelevant to Dorothy's current goal, in fact they revealed some important information to Dorothy.

'Garib stole the suspicious collection back before the cooling of the divination props was completed. There are two possibilities for this. One is that he has some means to identify the divination props without using the luminous lamp. .The second is that he is simply recovering all the collections donated by Azamu, and recovering all these collections to his hands. After the cool-down period is over, he can easily use the Huijian lamp to find out the divination props.

Chapter 450 Obstruction

'According to newspaper reports, the lost collections of the stolen museum are not too many, which proves that Ghalib's theft has a clear target, and this target is the cultural relics donated by Azamu, and this means that. .....In the hands of Gharib, he holds all the aliases used by Azamu when he donated...Museums usually put the names of the donors on the labels of the cultural relics showcases. Just take all the things donated by Azamu back...'

Looking at the newspaper in front of her, Dorothy was thinking like this. She knew very well that she was not the only one staring at the divination props. The current leader of the Shark Society, Garib, was also secretly eager to try. Their intelligence surpasses their own, so it is very difficult for them to obtain divination props from them.

'According to the information provided by Beverly before...Garib completed the ceremony he had prepared for many years after obtaining the rich resources accumulated by the Shark Society, and was successfully promoted to Chicheng at the beginning of this year. .....

"A Extraordinary who holds a large group of Chicheng ranks is difficult for me to deal with. It is very difficult to snatch food from him..."

Frowning, Dorothy thought in her heart that facing Chicheng this time was quite a challenge for her, and in this challenge, although this challenge seemed extremely dangerous, Dorothy West still sees an opportunity in it.

The opportunity lies in the fact that Dorothy discovered an important key point.

'Garib, as a newly promoted Chicheng...holds the resources of an association, and when it is clear that the last batch of donations from Azamu is in the Jingliu Church, he has not done anything!? The Garib is this year Chicheng, who was promoted at the beginning of the year, and the donations of Azamu in the other six museums were all stolen last year, but the donations in this Jingliu Church have not been touched, and now they have been stolen. It's the middle of the month, and Garib waited for a full month or two, but he didn't choose to give up the last vote.

'Emanuel Crown's extraordinary detection is very strong, but it's not too strong to be unsolvable. As long as you can gather a lot of "shadows", you can still ignore Emmanuel Crown and steal. Emmanuel's crown is specially placed by the church for the citizens to pay their respects, rather than specially used to prevent theft.

'As the head of a society, and getting so close to the Dark Gold Society, there is no reason why Garib could not make it together. Although this Jingliu Church has extraordinary treasures such as Emmanuel's crown, it is still an ordinary-looking church in essence. It is very difficult for him to steal things here as a naked man, but Garib still waited for two months without doing anything.'

Continuing to look at the newspaper in her hand, Dorothy thought in her heart that she believed that, as Chicheng, Garib wanted to steal the Azamu donation from the Jingliu Church, which was not much more difficult than stealing other secular museums, but the current There was no news of any stolen items from Jingliu Church. There must be a reason why Garib had been motionless for two months, and Dorothy could also think of the reason for it.

Opening her bag again, Dorothy took out a booklet from it. This is the guide book she bought in the Jingliu Church during the day, which introduced various situations of the Jingliu Church Museum in detail. .

Dorothy opened the guidebook, and quickly turned to one of the pages, and what was introduced on this page was the rotation system of the Jingliu Church.

Due to the reputation of Emmanuel's crown, Jingliu Church receives many different donations every year, which is much higher than other museums. Therefore, after years of accumulation, the scale of the church's collection has long been larger than the scale of the exhibition up.

That is to say, there are too many collections in the Jingliu Church, and only a part of them can be exhibited at a time. After this part of the exhibition is completed, it will be the turn of the next part. In this way, several batches will be exhibited in turn, so that the public can see as much as possible. Therefore, generally new collections will not be arranged for exhibition until the next rotation.

The exhibition of the Jingliu Church is changed about every half a year, and the latest change happened at the beginning of March, which means that the divination props may have been displayed in the Jingliu Church not long ago. They are preserved in the Grace Church in Adria.

Enguang Church is a newly built church after the Adria Church moved out of the Jingliu Church. It is not a museum, but is now the local church in Adria. The troubles inside are much more difficult. Although it is no problem to deal with Adria, a general bishop-level church, with the strength of Garib's newly promoted Chicheng, it is not impossible to grab it, but this will anger the higher-level church and cause yourself a whole lot of trouble.

So for Garib, it is better to wait for a while, wait for the Jingliu Church to replace the divination props as exhibits, and go to the Jingliu Church to steal them. The essence of the Jingliu Church is a museum rather than a Extraordinary institution. The odds of a seemingly mundane thing coming into violent and extraordinary conflict with the Church are slim.

Anyway, the cooldown of divination props is completed in the middle and late March, and Jingliu Church is in the beginning of March, so Garib still has time to steal the items.

But... now the time has come to March [-]th, the time has entered the middle of March, and the cooling-off time is about to end, Garib still doesn't do anything, what is the reason for this?

And for this question, Dorothy still has an answer in her heart.

Sitting on the chair, Dorothy put down the newspaper in her hand, then picked up another newspaper and unfolded it to read. The black and white photo printed on the newspaper showed a bishop wearing robes, it seemed An amiable old man, the headlines of the newspapers read.

"Archbishop Antonio will hold a grand welcome dinner tomorrow at the Old Lord's Mansion to entertain the pilgrims who have returned from the crisis. Archbishop Antonio will personally attend the dinner and receive Sister Vanya Chafilon... .It is reported that after this dinner, Archbishop Antonio will end his trip to Adria and return to Pezi."

Looking at the newspaper in her hand, Dorothy had a half-smile expression on her mouth, thinking that the Natsuki incident this time also had a very unexpected impact.

......

In the middle of the night, on the side of the church square, on the edge of a certain waterway.

In the dark night, a man wearing a windbreaker and hat walked quickly towards the waterway, jumped into it with a light body, and then landed on a small boat, and then the small boat began to paddle, wearing a black pocket The gondolier in the hat rowed the boat away from the church.

"Have you figured out everything inside?"

Without looking back, the boatman rowed and murmured softly, while the man in the windbreaker pressed the opening of his hat.

"Although it took a lot of 'shadowing', the situation is mostly clarified. I have seen it outside. Azamu's pseudonym donation is placed in the crown hall. As soon as Antonio leaves, we can do it ..."

"Well...According to the information from all sources, Antonio will hold a banquet tomorrow and leave the day after tomorrow. If that's the case...we can notify the Lord now and let him come over."

After listening to the man's words, the boatman rowed the boat and nodded.

"Yeah... As long as you are an adult, everything will be fine, really... If Antonio hadn't come running over suddenly, we would have ended up long ago..."

Chapter 450 Contact

Conquer the northern shore of the sea, Adria.

As the sun sets and the sun sets, Adria at dusk is under the glow of the sunset. At this time, Adria Port is busy, and a group of figures gather here on the pier by the sea.

On the shore of the pier with vacant berths, a dense crowd gathered here, and hundreds of figures were swarming by the water. For the pier at this time, this is a sight that is not common on weekdays. Among the people who gathered together Among them, there are reporters who desperately want to squeeze forward, there are policemen who are maintaining order, there are dock workers watching from a distance, there are serious Adria city officials and high-class people, and there are many churches in formal attire. personnel.

And in the center of this group of people, in a small circle separated by several armored knights, there are three figures standing, one is a middle-aged man wearing a bishop's robe and glasses, he is Ah The bishop of the local church in Adria. The other is a young man in a neat suit and a polite head. He is the head of the secret police in Adria and the head of the Iviga Deep Hidden Guard in Adria.

These two people can be said to be the absolute speakers of Adria's secret world's official extraordinary power. In the past, if they attended a certain event at the same time, they would definitely be the most important roles, but the current situation is a little different. At this time In the middle of the two of them, and in the middle of them, was an old man wearing a more expensive bishop's vestment, with a kind face, and the high-ranking officials of Adria all looked solemn around him, and they dared not show the slightest difference between their expressions. He is none other than Antonio, the archbishop from Pezi, the capital of Ivig, and the head of the entire Ivig diocese.

Since the occurrence of Xia Shu's incident, Antonio has always attached great importance to it, and even put the main focus of his work on it. In order to better coordinate Xia Shu's work, he even came to Adriatic a few days ago in person. Ya, the home port of the church fleet, and he has been dealing with Natsuki here until now.

Because of the summer tree incident, Antonio has been in Adria for nearly ten days. Now the whole incident is finally coming to an end. The hijacked pilgrims are about to arrive. Now Antonio just needs to wait patiently for the ship here. After returning to Hong Kong, and personally hosting a welcome dinner for the returnees, this matter has almost come to an end.

Antonio cast his gaze into the distance, and following him, almost everyone on the scene looked at the distant sea level. Under everyone's expectations, the shadows of warships on the sea level were slowly rising , as the fleet continued to approach, the neatly arranged fleet became larger and larger in the eyes of everyone. Finally, when the flagship stopped at the berth closest to them, everyone looked up at this magnificent ship. warship.

After the flagship was berthed, the boarding ladder was quickly connected to the deck, and then, amidst the sound of the prepared band playing music, figures walked down the deck one by one, and the senior officers of the fleet walked in front of Antonio amidst applause. , After saluting solemnly, he quickly retreated, and after the officers retreated.

Everyone focused their attention on the boarding ladder, where a nun in white clothes with an apprehensive expression walked down slowly, and walked to the ground while looking around uneasily. When she appeared, all the reporters on the scene stared Liang, wanted to push forward one after another, but was directly stopped by the police who maintained order at the scene.

With obvious nervousness, the nun in white walked up to Antonio step by step, looking at the old man who was smiling kindly at him, the nun in white wanted to say something but couldn't say anything for a while.

"Uh...you...you..."

"You are Sister Vanya. I finally met you. This is my first meeting. I am Antonio. I have worked hard all the way. I thank the Lord for blessing you all to return safely..."

Facing the white-clothed nun in front of him, Antonio said with a smile in a very proficient Prietan, after listening to his words, the white-clothed nun finally came to his senses, and immediately saluted respectfully.

"Ah...it's Archbishop Antonio. I'm Vanya Chaferon, a nun from Tivian Church. Lord, please forgive my impoliteness..."

"Sister Fanya, you are the hero who educated Natsuki and the protagonist of tonight's banquet. You don't have to be too rigid about etiquette. Let's go, there are more people waiting at the venue... .”

After speaking, Antonio turned and walked out, the two people beside him followed closely behind, and Vanya immediately followed after seeing this.

......

Time flies, and soon, the setting sun in the sky has completely dissipated, and the night has gradually enveloped the entire city. With the lighting of the lights, the entire Adria began to be bathed in the light reflected on the water surface.

At night, Adria's old lord's mansion was brightly lit. In this mansion that originally belonged to Emanuel, a grand banquet was being held.

In the hall of the old lord's mansion, the crystal-clear chandelier illuminates the wide space, delicious food is placed on the dining table, the uniformed choir and the orchestra rehearse beautiful music together, and the upper class from all walks of life in Adria Representatives of people and pilgrims chatted with each other in various parts of the hall, and the whole dinner was silent in a peaceful atmosphere.

And the only incongruous place in this piece of peace is located in a corner of the hall, where a group of reporters are gathering here, swarming up and blocking a white figure against the wall, asking all kinds of questions .

"Sister Vanya, how did you educate those marginal barbarians?"

"Sister Vanya, I heard that you even took the initiative to heal the barbarians who hijacked you. Is this true? Where did your courage come from?"

"Sister Vanya, many believers in Adria now believe that the apparition of the Virgin allowed you to teach the barbarians in a crisis. What do you think of this statement?"

"Uh... I just did what I was supposed to do, it's no big deal..."

......

Countless questions hit Fanya like a storm. Fanya, who had never seen this kind of battle before, seemed to be devastated in her haste and didn't know how to answer it well. After the staff drove away the reporters, she managed to get away.

After getting rid of the reporter, Vanya let out a long sigh of relief. After picking up a glass of juice from the dining table, she went to a window and drank it. Just as she was halfway through the drink, a familiar voice sounded behind her.

"Hehe, Sister Vanya, how did the banquet feel?"

Hearing this voice, Vanya turned around immediately, and then she saw Antonio walking towards her with an unchanged smile. After seeing him, Vanya, who was still holding a cup, shuddered, and then After putting down the wine glass, he immediately saluted Antonio and said.

"Holy Mother, I really like this banquet arranged by Your Excellency Archbishop. The place is beautiful, the music is good, the food is delicious, and I can meet many great people... I have never been so rich in my life A luxurious banquet...just, this kind of banquet is still...a bit too extravagant for me..."

"Luxury? No, no, no? It's not extravagant at all. For you, who saved hundreds of pilgrims and converted hundreds of thousands of people on the edge of Natsuki, this banquet is just a trivial welcome ceremony for me. Yours Merits are real for the church. After you complete the promotion, there will be more rewards for you. If such a banquet alone makes you feel extravagant, you may need to find out who you are. Your position is now, Sister Vanya, you are not as simple as an ordinary mid-level deacon..."

With a smile, Antonio said this to Vanya, and Vanya paused slightly, and continued to speak after a trace of uneasiness appeared in her expression.

"Your Excellency the Archbishop...I know that the credit for converting 10,000+ people in Xia Shu is great, but...but I feel a little strange that this credit suddenly came to me."
