Dorothy's Forbidden Tome

"I want to know more information about the Black Earth Rank, Mr. Aldrich, do you know any promotion ceremonies for the Black Rank?"

"Information about the black rank, huh... don't tell me that your spirituality has accumulated to the point where you can advance." Aldridge asked, while Dorothy waved her hand directly in answer .

"Of course not yet. I just want to find out and prepare in advance."

"Well... Indeed, starting from the black rank, the promotion ceremony has become troublesome, and it should be prepared in advance... But when it comes to specific ceremonies, I'm sorry, the few ceremonies I know are all 'stone I’m afraid you won’t be able to use it.” Aldridge continued, although he wasn’t sure what kind of spirituality Dorothy was, but he was certain that it wasn’t the same “stone” as himself.

"That's it... That's really a pity, so do you have any information that will help you advance to the Black Order?" Dorothy continued, and now she has begun to think about her next promotion.

"Is there any information that can help promote the black rank? Let me think about it... By the way... I have a secret biography here, and I'm afraid there are some things you are interested in." While talking, Aldrich said in front of Dorothy. Raised four fingers.

"One pound."

Looking at Aldrich who was always virtuous, Dorothy didn't say much, and was about to pay, since her spirituality hadn't reached its full level yet, which was just right.

……

Eagle Winter, somewhere on the outskirts of the city.

This is a cemetery. Rows of deep white stone tombstones are lined up in the open green space. Crows are standing on the treetops. Only pedestrians who come to express their condolences occasionally shuttle between the tombstones. A little bit of depression.

On an aisle at the edge of the cemetery, there are two figures walking together at this moment. They are men in their thirties and forties, wearing gray windbreakers, one of them is slightly taller, their faces are skinny and gloomy.One was slightly shorter, with a face full of stubble and a square face.

"Oswan...how is the situation on your side? Have you found anything?" As he walked forward, the shorter man asked his companion, who immediately answered.

"I found some, I inquired about the local Extraordinary circle, hmph... Although half of the real Extraordinary can't be seen, it can be regarded as the Extraordinary circle...

"I heard from them that there is a guy named Huiqiu in this city who occasionally holds Extraordinary parties. He is a real Extraordinary, and he doesn't seem to be an ordinary apprentice. According to Mr. Lukuu, many of the white stonemason's resident staff have I think it's very likely that I have a preference for holding extraordinary parties."

"It's called Huiqiu... Do you still hold extraordinary parties? This is indeed suspicious..." Godfrey nodded and said after dictating Oswan's words.

"Yes, so I originally planned to find out about this guy's party, but I found that the gray hill has not met again for a long time, it seems that because of a 'hidden world' in this city recently Cup's association suddenly collapsed, there are some unsettling reasons, and now I can't find that Huiqiu even if I try to find it."

With a hint of complaint, the man named Oswan said, and then he turned to look at his companion beside him and said.

"What about you? Godfrey, you have been investigating for several days, right?"

"I've also learned a little here. It's different from yours. In addition to asking the extraordinary circle, I also paid attention to the local news." While talking, the man named Frigo took out Rolls of newspaper held between hands.

"You can look at this."

While speaking, Godfrey opened a newspaper in his hand, and on the front page was printed extra news about Viscount Field.

"This is the biggest news in this city in the past few days. A viscount was killed by a wolf. His seven adopted sons were all frightened, but one of them suddenly recovered."

"A viscount was killed by a wolf? Is there any problem?"

"Of course there is. Didn't you just say that the reason for the unrest in the hidden world these days is because of the destruction of a "cup" association, and this viscount is basically determined to be the "cup" by the circle I inquired about? "The members of the association, even the leader... because someone saw him being taken into the carriage of the local black dogs, and then the black dogs investigated him on a large scale and blocked his houses in the city and suburbs. Anyone who gets close will be chased away." Godfrey explained, but Oswan continued to ask with some confusion.

"So? Is there any relationship between this dead Viscount 'Cup' and the person we are looking for?"

"Of course there is. Look carefully at the newspaper. It says that all the sons adopted by the Viscount are crazy... Heh, how is this crazy? Don't we understand the method of 'Cup' association? This is probably caused by 'Cup' Drug awareness and highly eroded condition.

"In order to verify this, I also sneaked into the church hospital here, and confirmed that those little ghosts are really in the Extraordinary Injury Department... They were corroded by the 'cup', and the degree is not low..."

While talking about Godfrey, he looked at Oswan seriously, and then continued to speak.

"Then the key thing is, how did a miraculous improvement appear among these little devils who were severely eroded by the 'cup'."

Hearing Godfrey's words, Oswan was taken aback for a moment, then continued to look at the newspaper, saw the column describing the only girl who had miraculously improved, and frowned.

"You mean...the reason why the little devil miraculously recovered is because someone helped her, and the one who can quickly relieve the erosion of the 'cup' must be a master of 'stone'?"

Oswan murmured, while Godfrey nodded seriously.

"So, I think this miraculously recovered kid is the key to us finding that guy!"

Chapter 130 Eight Elements

"A master of 'stone'..."

Looking at the newspaper Godfrey handed over, Oswan nodded thoughtfully and continued to speak.

"Your inference is indeed possible... who can relieve the erosion of the 'cup' in a short time, should have amazing attainments on the 'stone', I want to find... the master of the 'stone'...

"So, behind the miraculously recovered kid, it may be the target we are looking for, and even if it is not... it may be related to the target." Oswan murmured, and then he looked at Godfrey and continued Speaking of.

"So, where is that brat now? What are you going to do?"

"I have been to the Extraordinary Injury Department of the hospital here. She has been discharged. For the convenience of later observation, the hospital remembers her current address. I plan to investigate and see if I can find out the existence behind her."

Godfrey said bluntly, and after hearing this, Oswan thought for a while and responded.

"Well... This is indeed a clue worth investigating. I hope you can find something. I also plan to change my mind and start investigating again from other angles."

As he spoke, Oswan glanced at the buildings lined up under the dark sky in the distance, and murmured.

"Mr. Luku's great enemy is in this city, as long as we can find him, then our extraordinary future will be a smooth path..."

……

Uptown Eagle Winter, above the apartment on Nanyanghua Road.

Dorothy was sitting at the table by the window in her room, looking seriously at an old book covered with dust on the table. Some information about the order.

Dorothy quickly read the book on the table, ignoring the knowledge of poison, and read the text on it. This is a secret biography that explores the spirituality of "stone" with a research nature, called "Elemental Expression of Spirituality" .

According to this secret biography, "stone" and "cup" are relatively material spirits, among which "stone" is the most material. If the "stone" spirit is used as a catalyst, other less material spirits can be manifested. Come out, it is easy to inspire other spiritual element expressions.

Spirituality is an essence, multi-layered expression, each layer of expression reflects a side of spirituality, concepts, spirit, senses, matter... There are many types of expressions, and in the expression of elements, it is material One of the following expressions.

It is said in this secret biography that the six spiritualities have their own corresponding element expressions, and the elements of "stone" and "cup" can be easily stimulated by themselves, while the other surrounding spiritualities generally need "stones" as catalysts to activate them. excitation.

The elements corresponding to the six spiritualities are. "Lamp" corresponds to fire, "shadow" corresponds to wind, "cup" corresponds to water, "stone" corresponds to ground, and "ji" corresponds to cold...or ice.

Unfortunately, due to the lack of sufficient research objects corresponding to the spirituality of "enlightenment", it has not been discovered what the elements expressed by "enlightenment" have been.

The six major spiritualities all have corresponding expressive elements. Therefore, on the extraordinary road, there is a stage that focuses on manipulating elemental spirituality. To be promoted to an elementalist, you need to accumulate "stones" as auxiliary spirituality when you are promoted to the black rank. After the promotion, use the "stone" of auxiliary spirituality to catalyze your main spirituality, and you can stimulate the elemental expression of your main spirituality. Manipulate elements of the corresponding kind.

For example, if a "Lamp" apprentice chooses "Stone" as his auxiliary spirit, then he can be promoted to the rank of "Fire Master". In contrast, if a "Shadow" apprentice chooses "Stone" as his auxiliary spirit , then you can be promoted to "Wind Art Envoy".

After reading the entire secret biography, Dorothy breathed a sigh of relief. Indeed, as Aldrich said, after reading this secret biography, Dorothy’s understanding of spirituality and the black order has deepened, at least for a while. Zizi knew the rank names of the five black ranks, and also knew one of his options if he wanted to be promoted to the black rank.

If you use "stone" as an auxiliary spiritual promotion, you will be promoted to the element envoy corresponding to "Enlightenment", but what is cheating is that all the spiritualities in this book have written the corresponding elements, but it just doesn't write "Enlightenment". "Yes, so even if Dorothy wants to be promoted to be an elementalist, she doesn't know what elements she can control.

'This is very problematic, because 'Qi' could not find enough research objects, so no corresponding element expression was found... Is this 'Qi' difficult to find?If you can use it for divination and anti-divination, can't you use it for researchers to do research? '

Looking at the secret biography in her hand, Dorothy complained in her heart that she now feels that "enlightenment" spirituality is a bit rare in the hidden world.

All in all, Dorothy learned a little about the knowledge of the Black Order by relying on this secret biography, and also knew one of her promotion paths, and then she decisively extracted it as spirituality.

Although this secret biography is based on the theme of "stones", it introduces all spiritual knowledge except "enlightenment". Therefore, Dorothy has accumulated a wave of spirituality, including 4 "stones" and The other spiritualities are 1 point each, and 2 points are "enlightened".

Adding up the previous ones, Dorothy now has a total of 15 points of "cup", 5 points of "stone", 1 point of "lamp", 3 points of "shadow", 2 points of "Ji" and 9 points of "enlightenment".

'For £400...it's a good deal. '

Then Dorothy put away the secret paper, opened the locked door and went into the living room, and saw Greg with sleepy eyes sitting on the sofa reading a newspaper.

Dorothy blinked her eyes and said when she saw her brother whom she hadn't seen recently.

"Greg? You're already up, aren't you going to catch up on sleep?"

"Wooah... I still have a job from this afternoon to night. I'm going to be a bodyguard, so I can't sleep much." Yawning, Greg said a little weakly. He tossed hard.

"Ah... There are still classes to attend. Are there so many places in Igwent that need security recently?" With a curious look, Dorothy asked Greg, who answered slowly.

"That's for sure...the Burton case...the Bai Yinhebin case...Now Viscount Field is still killed by a wolf in the mountains, and now Igwent is so cute and panic-stricken, a rich man wants to have a few bodyguards around the clock ...Although the wages I get are high, I can't afford to spend so much..."

"That's true... If such a terrible gangster is also a wild beast, no one can relax. Hey... I didn't expect that even someone like Viscount Field would be in trouble. It's really unpredictable, am I right? I should buy a few peace amulets..." Dorothy said with a sigh, Greg was slightly startled when he heard what Dorothy said, and then he put down the newspaper in his hand and said to Dorothy seriously.

"Listen, Dorothy, don't trust those things, don't buy amulets, they're useless.

"I can tell you that I have inside information from the police. The gangsters who caused the tragedy not long ago will not attack civilians. They may have left now, so don't be too nervous."

Gregor asked so, and Dorothy nodded in understanding.

"That's it, then I'm relieved, but Greg, you are really amazing, you can actually get inside information from the police." Dorothy said to Greg in admiration, and Greg, who was praised by his sister, couldn't help laughing.

"That's not true. I'm your brother. People in our line of work often come into contact with the police. The average policeman should respect me." Greg said proudly, thinking that he usually only needs to As soon as he spoke, even the sheriff would circle around him.

"Then you are really good, Greg." Dorothy said with a smile, thinking that if I make a fuss in the city, you and the police will be around me.

"By the way, Dorothy, are you going out?" Greg said at this time after examining Dorothy's clothes, and Dorothy nodded.

"Yes, my student at Grace Orphanage, Anna, who was adopted by Viscount Field, was discharged from the hospital not long ago. The orphanage invited me to visit her together."

"Huh?" Hearing Dorothy's words, Greg couldn't help being stunned.

Chapter 130 IX Bones

Knights Road is located in the Upper Town of Igwent. It is a residential area with excellent environment. The carriage is moving.

In the afternoon, the carriage that Dorothy was riding in stopped at the side of Knights Road. After paying the fare to the coachman, Dorothy, wearing a sun hat, carrying a small bag, and a light purple dress, walked to the ground and started Look around and look around.

"Nice environment..."

After commenting, Dorothy began to walk on the sidewalk, looking at the townhouses beside her while walking, and slowly counting the house numbers.

"Number 24...25...26, here it is."

Nodding her head, Dorothy walked up the stairs in front of the wooden door, and began to ring the doorbell in front of the wooden door. The jingle bell didn't last long, and the small window on the door was opened, revealing a pair of eyes, and a voice came out. A questioning female voice.

"who is it?"

"I was Anna Field's voluntary teacher when she was in the Grace Orphanage, and I was invited by the orphanage to visit her here." Dorothy replied unhurriedly, and the other party responded immediately.

"Invitation from the orphanage? Please wait a moment, I will confirm."

After the voice inside the door finished speaking, the small window was swished shut. After Dorothy waited quietly outside for a while, the door in front of her was opened, and what appeared in front of her was a 20-year-old man with slightly curly yellow hair. Hair, a maid in a black and white maid outfit.

"Go in, Miss Anna is on the second floor, and the other visitors are there now." The maid said to Dorothy, her tone didn't contain much humility, it didn't seem like the attitude a servant should have, but rather Dorothy was not dissatisfied with this either, for she noticed the maid's unusual uprightness and guarded eyes.

"thanks……"

After a brief thank you, Dorothy entered the richly decorated house, then walked up the stairs, and not long after, she came to the second floor. In a living room that was twice as wide as her own, she saw Zheng Sitting on the sofa, Anna in her pajamas was surrounded by a circle of people.

Among them were several men in suits holding pens and documents, two old nuns, and several other plainly dressed children playing around, and several people dressed as domestic servants stood aside.

Several men with documents were sitting beside Anna and asked Anna about something, but Anna answered in a slightly confused manner, and the old nun at the side occasionally added a few words, when Anna accidentally saw Dorothy Here, a smile appeared on his mouth.

"You are finally here! Mr. Methhouse!"

"Well, to see little Anna, how could I not come?" Smiling, Dorothy also stepped forward to chat with Anna and the people around her, collecting as much information as possible during the process.

Not long after, Dorothy had a general idea of ​​Anna's situation at the moment.

Now Anna's mental condition has been determined by the doctor to be completely fine, and she can be discharged from the hospital. Because Anna was born as the heir of the Field family at this time, she did not go to the orphan but came here. One of the many properties in the city, although Anna has not officially inherited the inheritance, Yijiu can use it.

But who asked Anna to live here, Dorothy has guessed, most likely it was the arrangement of the Security Bureau, Anna's poison awareness suddenly disappeared, it is impossible not to attract the attention of the Security Bureau, so even after being discharged from the hospital Definitely need monitoring.And Anna suddenly becoming the heir of the Field family will definitely violate the interests of some people, so she needs to be protected.

With the dual needs of monitoring and protection, it would be inappropriate to send Anna to an orphanage. Others are the heirs of the noble Viscount, and many public eyes are focused on her, so it is even more inappropriate to send Anna to be locked up in the bureau.

Therefore, the Anyin Bureau estimated that they selected one of Viscount Field's real estate and let her live in it for the time being, and make relevant preparations for inheritance here, such as those men in suits and holding documents, they are the court. Civil servants in relevant departments also have specially invited legal advisers.

'This...I didn't expect that the Anyin Bureau attached great importance to Anna's property inheritance. It not only helped Anna manage the affairs of the government court, but also helped hire legal counsel. It seems that the Anyin Bureau is very inclined to let Anna Successfully completed the succession. '

Looking at this scene, Dorothy couldn't help feeling a little bit fond of the decision-makers of the Igwent Security Bureau when she thought of this.

Even though Anna has a strong inheritance right, she is still a teenage orphan with no relatives. If no one speaks up for her to fight for her rights, it will be very difficult to handle, but if the Anyin Bureau intervenes, it will not be easy. same.

Dorothy, who has dealt with the Anyin Bureau several times, knows very clearly that the Anyin Bureau should have a very high status in the power system of the Priet Kingdom, at least above the police system, with such a real power The organization is operating behind the scenes, and Anna has strong legal rationality, so there is no legal obstacle for Anna to inherit the estate and title of the Field family.

"I also care about them. I don't say anything about the aftermath all day long, but now I'm doing these jobs again..."

Dorothy, who was talking to Anna, glanced at the servants around her. Like the maid at the door, they all had bright eyes and alert expressions. They were obviously hunters in disguise. Looking at these Hunt people, Dorothy thought.

"Hehe... I don't know if Greg has participated in the task of protecting Anna. You, the leader of the hunters, will be my student's bodyguard?"Ha ha……'

……

"Ahhhhh!!"

On the second floor of another house directly opposite No. 26 Knights Road, Greg sneezed violently.

"Phew... is this a cold?"

Wiping his nose, Greg couldn't help muttering, then he continued to peek across the window and saw the familiar girl in Building 26 who was talking to his protection target.

"Sure enough, it's here... Fortunately, I don't have to hide in myself, otherwise it would be bad." Greg said, as the captain, he naturally didn't have to pretend to be a servant like his subordinates. He didn't dare to imagine that if he If Dorothy recognized her as a domestic servant in her student's house, what would the other party's expression be?

Looking furtively at the scene in the opposite room, Greg hoped that his old sister would go back quickly.

And at this moment, hundreds of meters away, on a section of Knights Road, a short man in a windbreaker with a stubbled face was sitting on a bench by the sidewalk with a suitcase, looking into the distance. the far side of the road.
