Chapter: 423

In that case, Maggot would certainly run away.

Lumian then looked at other transaction information; "A piece of elf dark leaf, 180 Filkin."

"Two pages of Emperor Roselle's original diary, 300 Filkin."

"Sequence 6 Corrupt Baron potion formula is required, 65,000 Felkin."

Lumian browsed through it roughly, and deeply understood why her sister Aurora spends money like water.

His waiters called out the entries one by one, some went unanswered, and some completed transactions through the waiters covertly.

Lumi watched quietly, mainly focusing on getting familiar with this situation and gathering information.

As the party drew to a close, the waiter at the moving blackboard finally read out Lumian's first request.

Now there is silence.

After more than ten seconds, the man sitting in the corner of the couch said with a deep smile; "Most of the people who are good at repairing artifacts and extraordinary weapons are in the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery. Where can I find them?"

His face was covered with oil paint, as if he was pretending to be a primitive man in the jungle of the Southern Continent.

Disregarding the not-so-funny joke, Mr. K's waiter described Lumian's second need.

The people attending the party looked at each other, as if they were aware of such a strange creature for the first time.

Sure enough, they are all low-sequence Beyonders with little knowledge... Lumian sneered in his heart with a little disappointment.

"On the lower reaches of the Serenzo River, where it meets the Leon River, there is a small town called Ernette, where many middle-class people in Trier like to go sailing and swimming."

At the beginning of last year or a little later, there were three cases of female deaths in succession. The cause of death was weakness caused by overindulgence, and they had no partners, either on the surface or in the dark.

"It sounds similar to Charlie's experience, the only difference is that those are women, and Charlie is a man..." Suzanne suspected. Matisse's grotesque creatures are gender-neutral, or, is there another grotesque creature that's similar but male?

"The latter possibility is more likely, because the three victims in Ernette Township are all women, and there are no men..."

Well, there is one difference between those three women and Charlie. They have no partner on the surface or in the dark, and Charlie became Mrs. Alice's lover not long after he prayed to Suzanne Mathis... If there was no such thing, would Charlie be like the three victims, and eventually die of weakness caused by too much indulgence?

"Mrs. Alice became a victim instead of him, or is this just the beginning?" Lumian thought a lot from what the man with the painted face shared, and made certain speculations.

He now only hopes that the authorities will pay attention to this case and not send Suzanne.

Matisse is completely cleansed.

As for whether the official would suspect that there were Extraordinary beings hidden among Charlie's friends because of the help letter, Lumian was not too worried—he deliberately misrepresented Charlie's information and situation when he wrote the letter, and even made a small mistake in some inconspicuous detail. In this way, the writer looked more like someone who had a deep hatred with Susannah Mathis, who had been following her for a long time, and wanted to use Charlie's matter to draw the authorities to help him take revenge. lack of sufficient understanding.

After the participants of the party exchanged for a while about the strange case in the town of Ernette, Mr. K's waiter picked up something covered with a black cloth.

Another waiter introduced, "This is a painting from a friend of a participant. He himself is an Extraordinary. He died strangely two months ago, and he drew this painting before his death."

At this time, the waiter holding the painting tore off the black cloth covering the surface, and displayed the posthumous work of that Extraordinary.

At this moment, it was an oil painting, on which all kinds of bright and strong colors were used to smear out strange and hallucinatory scenes: there were green weeds growing to the sky, there was a golden sun hidden in the well, and there was blood pouring down from the sky In the river, there are black figures dancing together, and there are clouds made of white skulls.

Just looking at the painting for a few seconds, Lumian felt dizzy.

According to the letters and diaries left by the owner of the painting, this painting probably contains some kind of truth, pointing to the truth of the essence of the world and the source of mysticism.

"This may also hide the real reason for his strange death. If any participant wants to study, the price can be negotiated."
