One after another, illusory black threads extended from Senior's body and fell into Klein's palms, reacting differently with every leap of the spiritual power.
In fact, manipulating the "Spirit Thread" does not necessarily require both hands, but Klein is used to doing so, which makes him feel like he is actually controlling the secret doll.
"From the current situation, my colleagues can detect each other's puppets. The abnormalities on the spiritual line cannot be hidden from their eyes. Therefore, we must be cautious in this regard." Klein summarized the problems he initially discovered and quickly turned his thoughts back to Senior himself.
This "Blood Admiral" is equivalent to being dead. His spirit has become an appendage of the puppet and has lost his own peculiarities. Therefore, many divination methods are no longer effective for him.
Of course, the method of finding corpses is still useful. Klein plans to first let this "vengeful soul" pass through the gray fog to "disinfect" it, then use the "paper angel" to wrap the mirror-like object he possesses, and finally put it into the iron cigarette box blocked by the spiritual wall, together with Azik's copper whistle, to perform triple interference.
In this way, Klein believed that it was almost impossible for the angels of the Rose School to use the "Blood Admiral" to lock his position through divination and prophecy.
As for whether the "Mother Tree of Desire" had left any "backdoor" in Senior's body, he was not too worried, because if the "Mother Tree of Desire" really tampered with the "Admiral of Blood", then during the previous battle between the demigods, "She" could have made Senior suddenly mutate and deal with herself. Judging from the situation at the time, this would definitely succeed.
"The 'Mother Tree of Desire' or the 'Bound God'' tightly controls the members of this organization by relying on methods such as oath contracts that penetrate the soul. This can be inferred from Ms. Sharon's description, her state, and my own experience after coming into contact with the corresponding characteristics...
"As long as I don't try to use the 'Blood Admiral' to divine the secrets of the Rose School and the 'Alien' path of potion formula, there will be no problem. It's normal that the 'Werewolf' extraordinary characteristic has been left on the gray fog for so long...
"Besides, there will be another gray fog 'disinfection' process later. If there are any hidden problems, they will be cleared out..." Klein thought for a while and took out the Azik copper whistle from his body.
He turned his right hand slightly, allowing the area with less pattern on the whistle to appear under the sunlight, reflecting the light like a mirror.
Senior's figure suddenly appeared above the copper whistle and quickly became clear.
The "Blood Admiral" in front of Klein suddenly disappeared.
“Perhaps the Mother Tree of Desire can still vaguely locate me through oath contracts, but it doesn’t matter. Anyway, “She” can sense the gray fog characteristics on me and sense me within a certain range… Besides, such a puppet might be destroyed by me as a shield at any time…” Klein was like an unemployed vagrant who owed a lot of debts. He felt that he had nothing to fear.
Of course, he did owe a lot of debt.
As long as he is promoted to a demigod and can hide his characteristics, the puppet can be thrown away at will... Klein looked around, bent down to pick up the silver necklace, walked four steps backwards, and chanted a spell in a low voice.
——This time he did not use the method of summoning spirits to enter, so he could not return directly.
Grayish-white mist spread rapidly, and hysterical muttering and roaring echoed forever. The Azik copper whistle in Klein's hand did not change, which meant that there was no major problem hidden in the body of the "Blood Admiral".
After sitting at the head of the long bronze table, Klein placed the Azik bronze whistle in front of him and let Senior, who was wearing a dark red coat and an old tricorn hat, appear beside him, like a butler waiting for his master's orders.
"What else do you have on you?" Klein asked, as if the Blood Admiral was still alive.
He is trying to play the role of "Master of Secret Dolls"!
Then, he manipulated Senior to search every pocket on his body and took out 325 pounds 16 soli and 8 pence in cash, including thirteen gold coins.
Apart from these, perhaps because he had to transform into the "ghost" form frequently, Senior did not carry any more items.
“How poor... A pirate general only has one magical item? Was it handed over to the Rose School of Thought and distributed to his pirates?” Klein seriously considered whether to cash in the Blood Admiral through the black market.
He is worth 42,000 pounds in Loen alone!
"Well, it's unrealistic to get a reward from Loen. Both the Church of Storms and the Kingdom's military are happy to follow this clue to capture Gehrman Sparrow, who caused a chaos among many demigods, and investigate the organization behind him. They won't give any money at all, and even if they do, it's a trap...
"By the same token, churches and governments in other countries must have similar ideas, but their attitudes may be a little better. Collecting the bounty requires taking considerable risks...
“And there’s no rush. I can send Senior away when I want to replace the puppet. Being a secret puppet for a few days won’t affect his identity and value anyway…” Klein collected his thoughts and cast his gaze on the silver necklace with a pendant that looked like an ancient coin.
He immediately used divination to roughly grasp the origin and function of the necklace.
It originated from a Sequence 5 "Winner" of the School of Life. After this gentleman died at the hands of a demigod of the School of Rose, his extraordinary characteristics, his own spirit, and an ordinary silver necklace he carried with him were combined to form a magical item.
Why was that ordinary silver necklace worn by a Sequence 5 warrior? Because it had been so long and the object had been contaminated, Klein could not get any effective inspiration.
This magical item has two functions. One is to passively make the wearer lucky. In daily life, the owner of the necklace will encounter good things from time to time and succeed in everything he does. When encountering fatal blows and terrible disasters, there will be dramatic scenes and he will be successfully rescued. The latter can only last for ten minutes.
The second is to proactively bring bad luck to the enemy, making the target unlucky, and making it easy for them to fail due to some minor problems in life or in battle.
The negative effect of the necklace is "conservation of luck". Good luck will be immediately followed by bad luck. The luckier you are before, the more unlucky you will be next. This requires the owner to concentrate and avoid it very seriously, otherwise it is easy to die in a funny way and even implicate the people around him.
The good luck gained in daily life often reverses after a month, and the user will become unlucky regardless of whether he wears it or not. However, this bad luck is released in a soothing manner and the degree of danger is not high.
The luck gained in the battle will come back to you in the same violent way ten minutes later.
"Overall, it's a pretty good magical item, but it's not very useful to me. After all, even 'Member of Fate' Richoed can't change my luck... Well, I'll wear it with me for now. It has almost no negative impact on me. I'll sell it when I have a chance to repay the debt of the messenger lady... The messenger lady wants gold coins, but I have gold pounds. It's almost impossible to exchange 10,000 gold coins through banks and regular markets. It seems that I have to divide it into batches and let each member of the Tarot Club be responsible for a part..." Klein quickly finalized the plan and casually named the necklace.
"Lucky Libra"!
Then, he once again turned his gaze to the "Blood Admiral" Senior who was standing respectfully beside him, and carefully studied the abilities of the vengeful spirit.
Forced possession, control of enemies, screams of wraiths, flickering mirrors, barrier penetration, death spells, and "invisibility" that would not be discovered by most mid- and low-sequence characters... Klein identified them one by one, and compared them with what Sharon and Maric had told him, as well as what he had experienced in battle.
He ended it all quickly, fearing that the candles in the real world would burn out, and the dim cave was very unfriendly to him who was currently afraid of the dark.
Klein immediately pulled out a paper figure from the pile of junk, combined it with the "Black Emperor" card, and combined it with some of the power above the gray fog to transform it into an anti-divination "angel."
The angel quickly spread its wings and embraced a gold coin, on which was reflected the image of Senior.
Then, Klein brought the gold coin, Azik's copper whistle, the "Death Knell" revolver, the suitcase and other items back to the real world. As for "Creeping Hunger" and "Groselle's Travels", one was left in the pile of debris above the gray fog because there was no food for the time being, and the other was left in the pile because he had been carrying it for too long and it might swallow Klein's body into the book at any time.
Back in the cave, Klein was busy putting the gold coin and Azik's copper whistle into the iron cigarette box and used the "Spiritual Wall" to seal it.
He cleaned up the scene, changed into formal clothes, picked up his suitcase, found an inhabited area along the beach, and found himself near Pritz Harbor.
He did not return to Backlund immediately, but changed his appearance, took a steam train, and headed to Conant City in the Disi Bay, intending to make a detour from there and change his identity.
…………
Bansi Port.
Alger Wilson looked out over the destroyed city in the afternoon sun.
He saw that all the houses had collapsed, there were deep gullies on the ground, and there were traces of burning everywhere.
This scene continued deep into the island, and even some mountains collapsed.
At this time, there were no people from the Church of the Storm guarding the ruins, because there was nothing here, and the plan to rebuild the port was far from being put on the agenda.
Alger jumped off the Blue Avenger and walked around the ruins with the sailors, but failed to find anything valuable.
"Let's go," he ordered calmly.
They quickly boarded the boat and sailed away from the island.
After an unknown amount of time, a figure suddenly walked out from the depths of the ruins.
He was wearing a double-breasted pure black clergy robe, his hair was dark blond, and his facial features were like those of a classical sculpture, without a single wrinkle.
One of his pupils was dark blue, almost black, and the other seemed dull, but was covered with dense, tiny blood vessels.
