Gehrman Sparrow... When Dorian heard this, a blood vessel in his forehead jumped. He clenched his hands involuntarily and his body became inexplicably tense.
Being in Pritz Harbor, he knew more about the various rumors at sea, whether actively or passively, than the citizens who Backlund knew by reading newspapers.
In recent months, he always heard about Gehrman Sparrow from different channels, starting from killing "Iron" McVitie, to severely injuring "Vice Admiral Disease" Tracy, and successfully hunting "Admiral Blood" Senior, and these stories were full of crazy colors.
He left the sea and came to Backlund? And his madness remained unchanged! Dorian suppressed the fear and vigilance that subconsciously rose in his heart, looked at his student, and said in a deep voice:
“Contact this bounty hunter less in the future.
"He's going to get into big trouble one day, and it won't be long."
The teacher is indeed experienced and has a sharp eye. He immediately saw through Mr. World's true nature... Unfortunately, I am already a member of the Tarot Club, so there is no way I can avoid contacting him... Fors adjusted his state and nodded sincerely:
"Yes, teacher."
Dorian calmed down and took another deep look at his former student and current enemy, Louis Wayne.
However, this "traveler" can no longer speak, and not even a trace of his spirituality remains.
After a few seconds of silence, Dorian leaned back slightly, looked at Fors and said:
"You just said you paid 10,000 pounds as a reward?"
He was not clear about Fors's financial situation. He only knew that this student was a best-selling novelist and should have a lot of royalties. He also seemed to be well connected with several Beyonder circles and always had high-paying deals. Therefore, it was not too shocking or unacceptable that he could save 10,000 pounds.
Fors moved his body slightly with a guilty look on his face and said:
“Is the premium too high?”
She deliberately used this rhetorical question to cover up the fact that she had inflated the price, so as to appear to have no experience in similar areas.
Dorian shook his head.
“No, it’s too cheap.
"It's so cheap that I can't help but suspect that Gehrman Sparrow has other intentions."
As a member of the often-struck Abraham family, he always remains on high alert.
In the professional terms of various clubs and gatherings, this is called the membership price... Fors muttered inwardly and said "frankly":
"There are other agreements, including that all the items on Louis Wayne's body will belong to him, and that I will provide some effective help. In addition, I have promised that if he is in urgent need of cash later, I will compensate him with about 3,000 pounds."
"That's barely reasonable." Dorian nodded slightly. "Normally, the price for assassinating Louis Wayne, who is backed by the Aurora Society, is at least 30,000 pounds. Well, if there are other circumstances, the price will have to be increased."
Mr. World used the demigod-level ability in the "Lemano Travel Notes" at that time... This should be an additional situation... A saint of the Aurora Society? Fors, who was deeply influenced by the Tarot Club, was not unfamiliar with the structure of the Aurora Society. He frowned and said without disguising:
"It seems a little unusual. Maybe he is in urgent need of money?"
Dorian thought for a moment and said:
"Perhaps he just cares more about Louis Wayne's Beyonder characteristics. For Beyonders of other paths, this can be made into a very useful magical item, as long as he can find the right 'craftsman'..."
Dorian paused for two seconds and added:
“Don’t worry too much about it, just stay away from him.
"Perhaps he has been eyeing Louis Wayne for a long time, and he is just using the intelligence you provided to take action, and this will also bring in extra-budgetary income."
Dorian did not continue the topic, but took out a fist-sized pure crystal ball from his pocket:
"It's made of star crystal and is effective in improving your astrology."
As the light outside the window shone, brilliant "waves" floated in the crystal ball.
Without waiting for Fors to refuse, Dorian laughed and said:
"Louis Wayne is my enemy. I should pay for getting rid of him. I don't have that much cash at the moment, so I can only use some items to offset it."
“No, it’s not necessary…” Fors shook her head half sincerely and half unwillingly.
The truth was, when she was planning to get rid of Louis Wayne, she simply wanted to help her teacher get revenge and hadn't considered the possible rewards that would follow. But against her will, she couldn't refuse.
Dorian's expression turned serious.
“Do you want to make me feel guilty and uneasy?
"Don't worry, your teacher still has some wealth."
Fors nodded and said:
"All right."
Dorian smiled again:
"Also, I brought you the recipe for the 'Recorder' potion. You can digest the 'Astrologer' potion while collecting the corresponding materials. Haha, I will give you one of the main ingredients, the Asman Brain, and the rest is up to you."
Asman is a monster that only exists in ancient legends. It looks like an unprotected human brain and is large enough to fill a room. Not only can it create terrible illusions, but it can also kill people who attack it by its own means.
As he spoke, Dorian took out a piece of yellow-brown parchment and handed it to Fors.
Fors gratefully took it and quickly glanced at the main materials:
"A complete Asman's Brain, a cursed object from an ancient vengeful spirit..."
I hope I can collect the remaining materials before I finish digesting the "Astrologer" potion... As Fors rolled up the parchment, she saw teacher Dorian take out a pure gold box from his suitcase.
After removing the spiritual wall, Dorian opened the lid and said:
"Without the golden isolation, Asman's Brain will continuously affect you, causing you to have hallucinations and even become insane."
Inside the square box, there was a grayish-white, wrinkled, bulging, translucent object quietly placed there. It was only one-fifth the size of Louis Wayne's head.
As expected of a family with a long history... Fors thanked them sincerely again, took the pure gold square box, closed the lid skillfully, and sealed it with the spiritual wall.
Dorian did not stop, but found an excuse to let Fors step aside for a while, while he set up a ritual to summon Malmos, a void creature who loved music, and took out two stacks of documents from the guy's spherical body.
——The three items he had prepared for Fors after he was frightened by the news about Mr. Door, so he had kept them with him in advance.
"These are two Backlund properties, one in the Hillston area and the other in the Cherwood area. Both are in good locations. The total price should be 6,500 pounds. Whatever you can sell it for, it's yours." Dorian said with a smile.
Although the Abraham family has fallen into decline, as a former angel family with a long history, it still has a lot of assets, including land, forests, real estate, estates and mines. However, Dorian only controls a part of them, and most of the rest belong to various small families.
The house I'm renting now has a market value of 2,500 pounds. The area is okay and the location is average... The things the teacher gave me today really add up to about 10,000 pounds... Fors couldn't help but sigh in her heart.

Inside the Holy Wind Cathedral, the "Deep Blue High Priest" Raydar Valentine looked at the "Manufactured Punisher" deacon opposite him and said:
"What's the result?"
The new Archbishop Backlund was a middle-aged man with an imposing manner. He had thick dark blue hair, large earlobes, and eyes that seemed to contain lightning and storms at all times.
The "Substitute Punisher" deacon standing in front of his desk was a thin middle-aged man wearing a modified captain's hat. He had no special features on his appearance, except for a blue-black anchor-shaped tattoo on his neck.
The gentleman replied respectfully:
“Sir, we have arrested several people who attended that party.
“But they don’t know who the others are, let alone the identity of the person who assassinated Mr. X.
"According to their description, the attacker is about 1.6 meters tall and is most likely a woman, but the possibility of a short man cannot be ruled out."
Radar suppressed his anger and said:
"What are you going to do next?"
"Since we have no way of knowing who Mr. X has invited to the party, and women around 1.6 meters tall are quite common, our plan is to relax our vigilance on the surface, only focus on a few suspicious targets, and convert the captured people into informants. Without our pressure, those crazy people in the Aurora Society will definitely take the initiative to look for the murderer and avenge Mr. X. They should have a rough investigation range. In this way, we can not only find the assassin, but also find clues about the Aurora Society in reverse." The thin middle-aged man explained in detail.
Radar nodded thoughtfully and said:
"Roy, remember to apply for a Level 1 seal when you take action.
"The situation at the scene shows that the Aurora Society has at least one Saint in Backlund, and the assassin is stronger than a normal Sequence 5, and he also has a demigod behind him."
"As you wish, Your Excellency Cardinal." Roy Wellington clenched his right fist and hit his left chest.

"Dawn, you always exceed my expectations. It hasn't been long since you finished studying the 'Book of Wisdom' section of the 'Apocalypse of Night'." In the Church of Saint Samuel, Bishop Elektra closed the holy book in her hand and smiled at the devout rich man with gray hair and deep blue eyes in front of her.
Klein smiled and said:
“This is what a believer should do.
"What about the study of 'Letters from the Saints' next?"
"Yes, which saint do you plan to start with?" asked Bishop Elektra.
Klein glanced around and chuckled:
"Saint Samuel, please."
Bishop Elektra was not surprised by this and introduced it seriously:
"Saint Samuel was the Archbishop of the Church in Backlund during the Trunsost Empire of the Fourth Epoch. He made outstanding contributions to the spread of the Goddess's faith. He entered the Kingdom of God during his lifetime and became an angel..."
As he spoke, he flipped to the corresponding "Letters of the Saints".
At this moment, Klein's inspiration was suddenly touched, and he felt that deep malice and evil thoughts were instantly spreading upstairs.
Then, a cool and deep feeling extended from the ground, smoothing out everything, and the church returned to its previous tranquility.
Bishop Elektra came back to his senses from his daze and said to Dwayne Dantès, who was unaware of what was happening:
"Sorry, I just remembered something else."
