Chapter 616 New Commission A few days later, sitting on the lounge chair on the balcony of the suite, Lumian was enjoying the sea breeze, basking in the sun, drinking Manzan wine without water, and took out the broken umbilical cord from Father Monserrate from his "traveler's bag". It was completely charred and had no spirituality. After repeated confirmation by Lumian and divination assistance from Franka and Janna, a conclusion was reached: After the "Exorcism Technique", the umbilical cord completely lost its activity. In addition, it did not have any extraordinary properties, so it could not be used as a magical item, nor could it be used as the main material to make spells, potions, weapons, etc. All it has now is its own particularity. In other words, it is a bit like the mark left on Lumian by the "Blood Emperor" Alistair Tudor. It has status but lacks power. Moreover, it cannot display the terrifying aura of the "Great Mother" Son of God. Lumian cannot use it to scare people or temporarily shock specific targets. Lumian felt that it could only be used for two things: One is to serve as a spellcasting material, allowing specific magic to exert power far beyond the normal level, or to help "wizards" use special magic that they could not use otherwise; The second is to add auxiliary materials into the production of magical items, talismans, potions, and extraordinary weapons, so that the final product has some special effects. Of course, Lumian also believed that placing such an umbilical cord remnant in front of the benefactor of the "Great Mother" would definitely play other roles. For example, even without "provoking" it would make those people turn their hateful eyes towards himself. "It's a pity that 'witches' are more like 'arsonists'. They can only use the various black magics that come with potions. They can't study spells and master new spells like 'wizards'. Among those black magics, there is only one that can use the umbilical cord as a casting material, 'bloodline curse'. But the invisible Son of God has not been born in the real world yet, so the curse is useless to Him. It can't be used to curse the 'Great Mother', right? If they really do this, Franka and Janna will give birth to several children on the spot... "Well, next time at the Curly-Haired Baboon Research Society, or other mystical gatherings, let's see if we can get some magical items related to the 'Wizard' sequence, and then collect some powerful spells that use umbilical cords or high-level objects as casting materials. Uh... isn't this a bit troublesome? According to Aurore, this is like raising a sheep specifically for a dish of coarse salt, and then slaughtering it when it grows up and making barbecue... "There's no need to find a 'craftsman' to make magical items recently, and there's a lack of main materials. Or, can you make an extraordinary weapon with a limited shelf life?
"No, a craftsman with low status would risk contamination if he used this as auxiliary material. It's not worth it to ask a craftsman with high status to help with such a powerless thing... "Make your own spells and potions?" Lumian looked at the charred short umbilical cord for a long time, and couldn't make up his mind, so he stuffed it back into the "Traveler's Bag". Then he touched his pocket and found a finger belonging to Mr. K. In the past two days, he made a special trip "back" to Trier to report to Mr. K on the matter of Father Monserrate and the invisible Son of God, and received Mr. K's undisguised recognition and praise. The excitement and fanatical atmosphere made Lumian suspect that Mr. K would chop off his arm and give it to him in the next second. Fingers are not enough to express his feelings! Mr. K was very satisfied with his promise to Lumian to leave Trier to find his enemy. He believed that this was a revelation from the Lord and praised Lumian for his unusual attraction to evil believers and evil events, and that he was a walking disaster for those who had fallen. How can such an extraordinary person always stay in Trier? He must travel to different places in the north and south continents! As for the name of Omybella, the "Harvest Goddess" of ancient times, Mr. K did not have any special reaction, nor did he seek enlightenment from his Lord on the spot. Lumian failed to get an answer, so he had to say goodbye and leave, and turned to find Franca, Janna and Anthony to share with them the story of the removal operation, human transmutation, and Father Monserrate, as a man, who almost became pregnant with the "Great Mother" Son of God. Although they already had some understanding of the "seeders" of the "villain" path, Father Monserrat's story still made Franca and Janna feel like they were listening to a horror story, and they had a psychological shadow on the benefactors of the "Great Mother". Anthony didn't react on the surface, but he made some rare unnecessary body movements: Unconsciously, I gently touched my belly. After spreading his feelings, Lumian returned to the ship with satisfaction and continued to the southernmost part of the Kingdom of Feynaport. dong dong dong. Lumian had just been flipping through the Dutan language textbook for a few minutes when he heard a knock on the wooden door of the suite. Lugano was very diligent and walked to the door like a servant, looking outside through the peephole. He hadn't heard the baby crying in the past few days, and his heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down. This incident made him even more grateful that he had chosen to stay with his employer instead of returning to Trier. He felt that if the root of the problem was the extraordinary materials left by Tanko, then even if he did not take this ship, he would definitely encounter similar things one day in the future, and it would not take too long, it might happen in a year or even half a year. By then, without the help of a powerful extraordinary person like Lumian Lee, his fate would be predictable. Seeing that it was Captain Pedro outside, Lugano turned around and said to Lumian on the balcony: "Boss, the captain is looking for you!"
What does the Captain want me to do? Shouldn't we just pretend that nothing happened? Lumian closed the Tutan language textbook and walked back to the living room in the bright sunshine. Pedro, who had a nice brown beard, entered the suite, exchanged a few pleasantries, cleared his throat and said: "Mr. Berry, are you interested in taking a commission? It's a very simple commission and won't waste much of your time." Simple? I'm afraid it won't be simple after entrusting it to me... After going through so many things, Lumian has a clearer understanding of his special "physique": As an extraordinary person on the "Hunter" path, he has an evil angel sealed in his body and still has the residual aura of the "Blood Emperor". Naturally, he has a strong attraction to disasters, causing many problems that would not have been exposed to erupt prematurely. Lumian himself couldn't predict how a simple commission would turn out in the end. Lumian, who was sitting on the single sofa, said with a smile: "What commission? Let me hear the details first before deciding whether to accept it." Pedro sighed and said: “The destination of this voyage is Kolya Port, my hometown, where my wife and children live. “At the beginning of the year, my eldest and favorite daughter, Sarah, fell in love with a young man and wanted to marry him. "You know, in Feynaport, marriage and family are sacred. We must enter into marriage carefully and maintain it responsibly. We can't just blindly find someone and go to church." "That young man makes you and your grandmother unhappy? You want to hire me to kill him quietly?" Lumian joked. "Actually, there's no need to go through so much trouble. Captains like you have plenty of ways to deal with young people with little social experience. For example, give him a chance, give him a temptation, let him come to the sea to do business, and then he will never come back." Pedro laughed dryly: "I am a law-abiding citizen and would not do such a thing." A captain who has been at sea for years and has extraordinary abilities is a law-abiding citizen? Don't tell such unfunny jokes... Lumian muttered a few words in his mind, smiled at Pedro, and waited for him to continue. "I tried to check on that young man and found that he had some problems. Something was not right about him. I hired adventurers to check him out, but the two adventurers never showed up again." Pedro said sincerely, "This made me instinctively feel dangerous. I don't want my child to be with such a person. It's too unsafe." Lumian nodded slightly: "So you came to see me?" "Yes." Pedro smiled. "To you, this is a small matter, but it is very important to me. I am willing to pay you 20,000 gold rizos as a reward, and all the gains will belong to you." 20,000 gold rizos, being a captain is still quite lucrative... Lumian thought for a moment and said: "Are you a Beyonder of the 'Farmer' or 'Pharmacist' path? "Are there any Beyonders at home who have mastered these two paths?" What kind of question is this... Pedro was stunned for a moment and said: "No." "Why don't you ask the church for help?" Lumian asked the second question. Pedro's expression darkened, and after a few seconds he sighed and said: “You are indeed an experienced adventurer. "I didn't go to the church because something was wrong with my daughter Sarah. Her love for that young man was too intense and so exclusive of everything. It was like she was possessed by the devil. Going to the church could solve the problem, but it could also lead to Sarah having a bad experience and outcome." Lumian nodded thoughtfully:
"Do you suspect Sarah has been possessed by some unknown creature, or has suffered a corresponding influence?" "Yes." Pedro looked worried. Lumian asked a few more questions, then thought for a while and said: "Okay, I accept this commission." He had to keep looking for events, and try to digest the Conspirator potion to the point where he could hold the Ascension Ceremony by the time he arrived at West Balam in the southern continent. Of course, saving more money for Ludwig's meals was also a reason. ………… A few days later, at ten o'clock in the evening, in Trier, Memorial District, Orosei Street 9, apartment 702. Franca and Janna looked at Anthony who knocked on the door and asked in confusion: "What's up so late?" Anthony nodded: "We found that woman." Ah? Jana was stunned for a moment, then asked: "The woman who appeared in the 'magic mirror fortune telling'?" The woman who made the "fragment of the mirror world" in me tremble slightly? Anthony answered with certainty: "Yes." (End of this chapter)
