In the deep and quiet underground corridor, the nearly four-meter-tall skeleton messenger clutched a piece of paper and disappeared before Klein's eyes without causing any abnormal щww{][lā}..
When the only thing left around him was the elegant gas lamp embedded in the wall, he put away the Azik copper whistle and continued walking towards Chanis Gate.
While writing the letter, he had already thought about which seal he would choose next:
First of all, it is almost impossible for a "3" level seal to have an impact on the baby in Megose's belly, unless it is an item with hidden mysteries like the "Mutated Holy Emblem of the Sun".
But at this moment, in this situation, Klein had neither the energy nor the time to explore or study secrets that might or might not exist. In addition, seals all had more or less hidden dangers, which would cause great inconvenience to the user, or even bring danger. Therefore, Klein directly eliminated these "3" level seals that could not affect the enemy but would weaken himself.
Secondly, the Tingen Night Slayer team did not have any "level" sealed items, and there were only three "level 2" sealed items. This was a secret that Klein should not know, but in view of the critical situation, Dunn decisively used the "emergency clause" and told him the general situation.
——Dunn Smith could not pick up any other sealed objects while holding Saint Selina's ashes. Not even one.
The "2" level seals behind the Chanis Gate in Tingen City are: "2-030", "2-078" and "2-05".
The name "2-030" is "Inexhaustible Poison", which comes from a Beyonder with an unknown sequence name who suddenly went mad. He cut his wrists to commit suicide, letting the blood in his body flow into a small ordinary silver cup. However, when all the blood was shed, the silver cup was not full. The liquid inside became crystal clear and moist, which was extremely tempting. Even a Beyonder of Sequence 5 could not resist this kind of liquid, drank this cup of liquid, and was poisoned to death on the spot.
After the poisoned person dies, the venom will seep out of the pores of his skin little by little and gather together again, neither more nor less than at the beginning.
Dunn said that the researchers at the Temple suspected that all the high-sequence masters would die because of this, but the problem was that the high-sequence masters would hardly be poisoned by the cup of poison, and because the characteristics of "2-030" were obvious, it was impossible for them to take it by mistake. If they wanted to poison them to death, they had to be captured first, firmly controlled, and forced to drink it. But why would they have to go through so much trouble?
"2-030" will constantly force the surrounding creatures to drink it. The user must concentrate on resisting this force. If he relaxes for a moment, he will drink the poison in his hand like a habit.
Almost as soon as Dunn finished his description, Klein had already decided not to choose this seal.
"2-078" is called the "Gate of Death". It looks like a normal wooden door. Any creature that passes through it will die immediately. No high-sequence experts have participated in the testing.
It has the characteristics of being alive and will keep trying to escape. It can also change its appearance and disguise itself as existing doors. If the user makes a mistake and lets it out of control, they must be careful not to go through any of the doors around it. They must try to stay where they are and wait for rescue, or simply break down the wall and leave.
Klein considered using "2-078", but after repeated considerations, he believed that the intuition of mythical creatures must be very sharp and they should be able to distinguish which one is the "Door of Death", so the actual combat effect of this seal would not be very good.
Finally, he decided to choose "2-05".
The name of this seal is "Vascular Thief". It looks like a thick, rigid blood vessel. Anyone who touches it, regardless of whether they are protected or not, will have their life stolen. It is not obvious at first, but if they keep in contact, then after half an hour, there will be corresponding external manifestations. Dunn said that a Sequence 5 cultist held on for two hours and turned from a strong man in his thirties into an old man with a hunched body, wrinkled skin, sparse white hair, and all his teeth lost.
The biggest feature of "2-05" is that the person wearing it has the opportunity to steal an ability from a target within a certain range. High-sequence strongmen can also be stolen, but the probability is smaller.
Within ten minutes of the seal's ability taking effect, the person whose ability is stolen will directly lose the corresponding ability, while the wearer can use it skillfully. After ten minutes, the ability disappears, and the person whose ability is stolen will have to wait until the next day to recover.
“Whether it works or not, at least the chance of winning has been raised from 5% to 10%. After all, I am the Yellow and Black King who controls good luck… Besides, our main goal is to take precautions before it happens and make plans for the worst. We don’t necessarily have to take action… I hope our helpers can arrive as soon as possible…” Klein stopped outside the guard room without any hesitation.
He was not too worried about the negative effects of Sealed Artifact 2-05, because he did not intend to use it himself...
His plan was to give it to Leonard. He himself had the "Yangyan Talisman" and the "Azik Bronze Whistle", which he didn't know if it would be suppressed.
Poet, it's time to show you your true secret... Klein whispered and saw Xijia Teon standing at the door of the guard room.
The part-time writer with white hair, black eyes and a calm temperament was silent for a few seconds and said:
"You come and guard the Chanis Gate."
"I am stronger than you, and I have more experience than you."
But you don’t have the Sunfire Charm… Klein smiled and said:
"Ma'am, I am already Sequence 8."
"Even here, we are not safe. The seals with living properties behind the Chanis Gate are probably ready to move. Well, if we fail, the people here will definitely not be spared."
"Haha, our goal up there is to delay time and wait for rescue. This may be safer than being near Chanis Gate."
Xijia Teong slowly pursed his lips and solemnly drew a crimson moon on his chest:
"May the goddess bless you."
Because Dunn didn't have time to write the document, Klein couldn't enter the Chanis Gate directly. He could only watch as Xijia Teon pushed open a gap and slipped in.
After a few minutes, she appeared at the door, holding a pale, bloody, thick blood vessel in her left hand.
Klein reached out his hand to take it, and immediately felt as if a weak electric current was rushing through his body again and again.
…………
In the reception hall of Blackthorn Security Company.
Leonard had gotten rid of his stiff state, and his expression was no longer strange as he talked about the newly discovered house that Lanevus had rented.
"Really? He never told me..." Megose frowned slightly and gave a fairly normal answer.
After saying that, she grabbed a handful of her golden hair and threw it into the trash can next to her.
Leonard was stunned for a moment, swallowed hard, and cold sweat broke out on his palms again.
…………
With the "Vascular Thief" wrapped around his left hand, Klein walked down the stairs and returned to the second floor step by step.
He saw Dunn Smith standing quietly at the door of the Night Watchman's Lounge under the dim blue gas lamp. He was wearing a black knee-length thin windbreaker. His eyes were deep and dim, just like when he first met him.
"Let's get to know each other again, Nighthawk, Dunn Smith."
The past voices flashed in Klein's ears. Suddenly, Dunn, half-lying next to Cohen's body, and his bloody mouth suddenly popped up in his mind.
He was silent for a few seconds, walked over, raised his left hand and said:
"Captain, I picked the Sealed Artifact '2-05'. I plan to give it to Leonard."
Dunn nodded slightly, without asking why, and pointed to his office and said:
"The Holy Temple sent a telegram, saying that they will immediately organize strong men to come over, asking us to delay as much as possible and wait as long as possible."
"They haven't responded to those coincidences yet. I think there is no conclusion yet, or the person handling the telegram doesn't know the specific situation and has no way of guessing. You know, we have to hurry up and the telegram can't be too long."
"Yeah." Klein nodded, moved closer to the partition, looked outside and asked, "What's the situation?"
"Nothing unusual yet." Dunn looked down at the saint's urn in his left palm.
Seeing that Leonard and Megose were chatting happily, Klein did not go out to disturb them. He retreated to the door of the Night Watcher's Entertainment Room, facing Dunn diagonally across the corridor.
At this moment, Dunn suddenly laughed at himself and said:
"I forgot one thing."
“What’s going on?” Klein responded in confusion.
Dunn turned his head and looked at him.
"Daly let me explain it to you myself."
"Huh?" Klein was stunned for a moment, not quite understanding what the captain meant.
Two seconds later, without waiting for Dunn's answer, he suddenly realized:
The reason why Ms. Daly did not reply in time was that she thought it was unnecessary and she conveyed the matter directly to the captain and asked him to explain himself.
This, this shows that the captain has no serious problems!
At this critical moment, Klein suddenly felt a surge of genuine joy.
