Chapter 655

Franca walked out of the shadows and saw that the silver-white full-body armor had no target because Lu Mian had left the warehouse, and there were no weak targets here, so it became quiet again and no longer had any attacking behavior, so she breathed a sigh of relief.

She carefully approached, avoided the back of the "Arrogant Armor," and came to its front.

The "Arrogant Armor" didn't move.

Franca stretched out her hands, barely lifted this silver-white full-body armor, and stuffed it back into her "Traveler's Bag."

Only then did she relax and shout at the surroundings:

"It's okay, it's okay."

Jenna's figure then grew out of the dark corner on the other side, while Anthony appeared abruptly at the entrance of the warehouse, in a posture of being ready to roll and escape at any time.

It was only a matter of seconds before Lu Mian climbed back in from the high window.

Franca said amusedly:

"Damn, nothing happened when dealing with 'Siso' before, but then we were almost wiped out by our own sealed artifact. It's a good thing we all have substitutes; otherwise, even if we didn't die, we would have been seriously injured."

"A funny case that can be in 'Ghost Face' magazine." Jenna made a calm evaluation.

After moving out of the Market District, she had quite a bit of spare time. Although she still owed Franca a large sum of money, the supplies on her were enough to offset it, so while completing the "Tarot Club" mission and trying to act, she could go watch a play every week, could buy magazines, newspapers, and books she wanted to see before but couldn't bear to buy, and could go experience the department stores and certain restaurants she once yearned for.

Franca gave two dry laughs:

"Who would have thought this armor would be so vengeful? Hey, what exactly did you do to it?"

The latter question was asked while looking at Lu Mian.

Lu Mian spread his hands:

"Didn't I just backstab it once?

"I thought that after breaking contact and waiting for it to calm down, there would be nothing else."

Franca nodded frequently along this step:

"Yeah, I thought so too.

"It's all that armor's problem! This doesn't look like armor at all!"

After complaining, Franca thought for a moment and said:

"I don't know when it will forget that you backstabbed it. I can only keep it with me for now."

"Hmm." Lu Mian also felt a bit regretful; such a useful sealed artifact couldn't be used for the time being.

He looked at "Siso's" corpse, which was more severely damaged, and the Beyonder characteristic that seemed to be fine, took them back into his "Traveler's Bag," and said seriously:

"I hope the operation against that Minister of Industry can start after this sealed artifact is made. Although its negative effects will definitely be very serious, 'Desire Apostle' plus 'Wraith' is definitely very useful, even if it can only exert part of their abilities."

"Indeed." Franca was very much looking forward to it.

She turned to ask Lu Mian:

"'Siso' is already dead. Your goal of coming to the Southern Continent can be considered achieved. Where are you going next? Returning to Trier with us?"

Lu Mian shook his head, as if he had already thought about the answer to this question:

"I plan to stay in the Southern Continent for a while longer."

"Why? To investigate the matter of Tizamo town and that thing of 'Siso'? This doesn't seem like something that must be done." Jenna expressed confusion.

Lu Mian laughed:

"This is a paradise for 'Hunters,' don't you think?"

Without waiting for Franca and the others to ask back, Lu Mian explained seriously:

"After so many things, I gradually discovered a problem, which is that for a 'Hunter' to act well and digest faster, one must experience various events.

"My meaning is, the acting of a 'Hunter' is more intuitive and direct compared to other pathways, unlike a 'Witch' who still has to experience pleasure, feel pain, and think about and grope for some things on an abstract level and a philosophical level, which are often more complicated.

"'Hunters' only need to be in chaos and disputes, constantly fighting, and they can act well: fighting is another description of hunting, chaos and disputes are bound to be accompanied by a large number of conspiracies, provocation is to make the conspiracy go more smoothly, arson is to win the battle, and the outcome of the event will be harvesting, harvesting the enemy's life, harvesting the fruits of victory."

Seeing Franca, Jenna, and Anthony both a bit puzzled and thoughtful, Lu Mian smiled and said:

"I've only been from Sequence 9 to Sequence 5 now for more than half a year. Why?

"Because I was passively or actively involved in a series of events, realized the acting code in constant chaos, disputes, and battles, and found acting opportunities.

"Simply put, 'Hunters' don't have that many fancy acting methods before high sequences. Although I have some realizations about fate because of my own characteristics, that also has to do with determination and will, which are also part of the battle.

"'Hunters' are forged between blood and fire, and grow up in chaos and disputes. If I want to become stronger, I have to chase these, and the Southern Continent can provide all of this."

In this way, Lu Mian can quickly digest the "Reaper" potion preliminarily and try to accept the Sequence 5 "Fate Appropriator" of the Fate pathway.

And only after truly mastering some abilities related to fate does Lu Mian have hope of finding some connection between him and that ancient castle when facing "Loki" next time.

According to Franca, when facing this kind of enemy that can be resurrected, one must find his resurrection point and camp there!

Of course, there will be some dangers after becoming a "Fate Appropriator," because that means whether it's based on the aggregation caused by the exclusion of the evil god's believer by the world, or the tendency of fate forces to lean toward each other, the probability of Lu Mian encountering "Person in the Loop" Vazan Sanson will significantly increase.

Although he really wants to have such an encounter, he also knows very well that he is not ready to face such a demigod, nor does he have the corresponding strength. After all, the high-ranking figures he can ask for help cannot always watch him, and when they meet is uncontrollable.

After listening to Lu Mian's account, Franca showed an expression of envy.

If the acting of the "Witch" pathway were this simple, it would be great.

The previous "Assassin" and "Instigator" were still intuitive, but the later ones are getting more and more troublesome.

Hey, when I met Lu Mian, my sequence was clearly higher than his, and I was also more powerful than him. It's only been half a year, and it's reversed... Franca was a bit sad and also a bit impulsive.

After sending Franca, Jenna, and Anthony back to Trier, Lu Mian entered Suite 7 on the third basement level of the Aurelia Hotel and signaled for Lugano to go out for a moment.

Then, he dragged "Siso's" corpse out of the "Traveler's Bag," placed it in front of Ludwig, and said with a smile:

"Promised you, can it be eaten?"

Ludwig, holding a silver children's knife and fork with a steak in front of him, jumped off the chair, looked at the broken, semi-demon-like bloody corpse, and a clear desire and hesitation appeared on his face.

It could be seen that he wanted to, but wasn't too daring.

After more than ten seconds, Ludwig gently moved the children's knife and fork in his hand and said as if he had made up his mind:

"Can eat a little bit."

Without waiting for Lu Mian to respond, he squatted down and stretched the children's knife and fork toward "Siso's" flaxen eyes that hadn't closed.

In the sound of cutting, Ludwig picked up the two eyeballs that had some demon characteristics, one on the fork and one on the tip of the knife.

Then, he poured himself a glass of orange-yellow "Guadal" drink with one hand.

"This has caffeine, children can't drink it." Lu Mian reminded him casually.

Ludwig looked at the drink with an attractive color, then looked at the eyeballs on the children's knife and fork and the semi-demonized corpse on the ground, and fell into silence.

Lu Mian also fell silent.

After a few seconds, Ludwig put the two eyeballs into the orange-yellow "Guadal" and deliberately used the fork to pierce more gaps so that the liquid inside could flow out.

Immediately after, he picked up this drink, squatted beside "Siso's" corpse, and brought the cup to where a little blood was still dripping.

Pa, pa, pa, three drops of blood with a sulfur smell fell into the orange-yellow drink that had started to fade, causing it to quickly be stained with a bloody color.

Ludwig shook the liquid in the cup and drank it down in one gulp.

Lu Mian watched him finish drinking, watched him clearly become a bit more spirited, and asked with some curiosity:

"What is the effect of drinking this?"

Ludwig licked his lips and said:

"Permanently increase some spirituality, be able to sense the aura of the abyss more keenly, and can drive a few undead creatures of lower status.

"Only the first cup is like this. Drinking similar things later will only temporarily increase perception and restore some spirituality."

Speaking of this aspect of things, Ludwig's tone became mature unconsciously.

Feels quite good... but only you dare to eat this kind of messy stuff... Lu Mian slandered twice, put away "Siso's" corpse, returned to his bedroom, and began to write a letter to Ms. "Magician," mainly reporting "Siso's" surface identity, his own guesses, and the problem of Tizamo town, and proposing that the reward for these unexpected gains be making "Siso's" Beyonder characteristic into a sealed artifact.

Folding the letter paper neatly, Lu Mian took out the cluster of wantonly arrogant black crystal clusters, set up a ritual, and summoned Ms. "Magician's" "Doll" messenger.

As soon as the "Doll" messenger came out, it made a sound of disgust and pinched its nose.

It pointed to "Siso's" Beyonder characteristic and said in a slightly sharp voice:

"Put it in a box, put it in a box! It's so dirty!"

Lu Mian found a small paper box from the "Traveler's Bag" and stuffed the black crystal cluster into it.

"Tie it up."

"Stuff it into another box."

"Take another box and cover them."

The "Doll" messenger kept adding requirements.

Finally, it reluctantly hugged the nested boxes and took away the letter.

Port Pilos Patrol Force.

Reyasa said to Camus:

"The problematic team members have all been cleared out, and the rest are accepting audits one by one. You have to go too."

"How is Colobo?" Camus asked with concern.

"Nothing is wrong now. We specifically went to the Church of the 'Mother Goddess of Earth' to invite a 'Physician'." Reyasa answered calmly, "The biggest problem now is that Tavanaco hasn't been caught yet, and it's confirmed that he is both a 'Wraith' and a 'Desire Apostle'."

"How did he do it? This is too strong, right?" Thinking of the retaliation Tavanaco might do in the future, Camus felt a burst of fear.

Just at this moment, a Patrol Force member entered the office and said to Reyasa and Camus:

"Captain Reyasa, Boss, that guy wearing a straw hat is here again!"
