Chapter 549: The Observer (Please give me double monthly tickets at the end of the month) Obeying the orders of the "Governor of the Sea" is more important than respecting the church... The "Mother Earth" church doesn't even care... Lumian didn't ask any further questions, but nodded slightly. "I can accept this commission without any compensation, but I have one request." "What request?" Rubio asked cautiously. Lumian smiled. "I came here to see the sea prayer ceremony, but I heard that only a very small number of people can participate and watch the two most core links. I hope there will be such an opportunity." Rubio remained silent for a long time without answering. Seeing this, Qiao Jia couldn't help but be curious and asked her husband in the plateau dialect about what he had just said and the questions that embarrassed him. Lugano took the opportunity to move closer to Lumian and recounted the key points of what the couple was discussing. Hearing that they were actually seriously considering letting him disguise himself as a sailor and board the specially built sacrificial ship, Lumian's eyebrows moved slightly. Rubio Paco really wants to agree to it? I just offered an outrageous price to see if I could squeeze out some details of the Sea Praying Ceremony. I never thought of blackmailing the employer with such a seemingly simple task and asking him to participate in the last two stages of the Sea Praying Ceremony! That is a secret that the Fisheries Guild has kept for thousands of years, and it is also the source of their power and prestige! As his thoughts raced, Lumian began to suspect that the commission to send Mrs. Marta to Milo Village to meet the current "Governor of the Sea" was extremely risky and could not be accomplished by just any extraordinary person. Therefore, Rubio Paco did not want to give up on the great adventurer Louis Berry who had proven himself.

"But where is the danger? This is Santa Port, not those islands in the sea, nor those remote towns in the southern continent. How could a Beyonder dare to attack me in the street in broad daylight? Aren't they afraid of being captured by the combat nuns and made into soil fertilizer? The power of a True God Church must never be underestimated! “Unless, I have special abilities like Loki, who can kill me in a busy street without anyone noticing. Or, a saint with divinity can take action personally to end the battle before the Church of Mother Earth can react... But it’s not that exaggerated, it’s just a small matter..." While Lumian was thinking it over, Rubio and Georgia came up with a conclusion. The former said to Lumian: “I cannot allow you to participate in the last two stages of the sea-praying ceremony. This is a blasphemy to the sea. The people and families involved will be expelled from Santa Port. "But I can let you hide in Milo Village in advance and watch the ancient performances in the village during the vigil ceremony." In other words, they could not directly witness the vigil ceremony, but they could enjoy the folk performances that accompanied the vigil ceremony? Did Ultraman, the Bard, and the Madwoman also use this method to get close to the core of the sea prayer ceremony and complete the most critical part of the prank? Seeing that Rubio had made the greatest concession, Lumian stopped "insisting" and said with a smile: "make a deal." Without waiting for the other party to respond, he "kindly" suggested: "Send Madam Marta to Milo Village today, shall we? We cannot delay illness, and we need to treat her as soon as possible." Rubio hesitated for a few seconds before saying: "My mother has fallen asleep. She has been sleeping a lot recently. Forcibly waking her up will affect her body and mind. How about tomorrow morning?" Is this a preparation in advance? Lumian nodded thoughtfully: "no problem." He glanced at Lugano next to him, and said with an idea: "Mr. Rubio, my translator is actually a very good doctor. He does not believe in the 'Mother Earth' and does not belong to any church. If he treats your mother, he should not need to ask for permission from the 'Governor of the Sea' in advance." Lumian placed emphasis on the word physician. Rubio Paco shook his head without even thinking: “We trust the church’s physicians more. "My mother is the most important person to me and I don't want her to be exposed to any unnecessary risks." His hidden meaning was that I can't be sure of the quality of your medical translation skills, and it's impossible to use the grandmother of the Paco family as a test subject. Lumian himself was actually looking forward to sending Mrs. Marta to Milo Village, because that meant he had the chance to meet the current "Governor of the Sea" and have a chance to learn some things. He had just proposed that Lugano treat the old grandmother just to test Rubio.

The result of the test is that there are still many secrets in this matter! After agreeing to escort Mrs. Marta and her maid to meet the "Governor of the Sea" at nine o'clock tomorrow morning, Lumian took Ludwig and Lugano out of the main house at No. 21 San Lana Street, and Giorgia accompanied them all the way to the door. Lumian said casually: "Does the 'Governor of the Sea' have to live in Milo Village?" Giorgia nodded slightly after receiving Lugano's translation: "The 'Governor of the Sea' must live in the building where the vigil ceremony is held every night. He can move freely during the day, but he cannot leave Santa Port." The building where the vigil ceremony was held? The essence of the vigil ceremony was that the prospective "Governor of the Sea" entered the mansion, replaced the former "Governor of the Sea", and waited for the official appointment of "the Sea" the next day? Lumian made a guess based on his knowledge of occultism. He smiled and asked: "What are the benefits of becoming the 'Governor of the Sea'?" After listening to the translation, Qiao Jia was silent for a few seconds and said: “Among people involved in the fishing industry and in the eyes of many sea merchants, he is the real governor.” She didn't answer Lumian's question directly, but just gave some hints. Lumian nodded slightly, without asking any more questions, and walked out of the iron gate with Ludwig and Lugano. After walking a few steps along the lush green avenue, he suddenly raised his head and looked towards the high place on the side. There, on a branch, stood a starling with gray feathers. Lumian withdrew his gaze and continued walking until he got on a hired carriage parked on the side of the road. After a while, the starling flapped its wings and flew up. After circling a few times, it flew to a house two blocks away and flew into an open window. It landed on the forearm of a middle-aged man and said in clear and fluent plateau language: "Louis Berry is at Paco's house again! "Stayed for nearly two quarters of an hour!" The middle-aged man was wearing gray clothes, had an ordinary appearance, and had messy brown hair. He looked like a farmer in the suburbs. He fed the starling a few homemade rice grains and said: "Go and observe to see if Rubio Paco and Giorgia will go out today." When the starling flew out of the window, the middle-aged man exhaled and turned around. Suddenly, his eyes froze, and he saw a person sitting on the only armchair! The man had black hair and green eyes, and was wearing a white shirt, a black vest, dark trousers, and a golden straw hat. Louis Berry! The great adventurer Louis Berry! The middle-aged man arched his back slightly and spread his legs a little to the sides, but did not make any other movements. Lumian leaned back in his chair and chatted in Intis as if he had been invited in. "What do you have your bird spying on?" The middle-aged man was silent for a moment, and then spoke Intis in a rather awkward way:

"See who's coming in and out of Paco's house, see if there's any unusual movement there." "Very honest." Lumian nodded approvingly. "Who told you to do that?" He was glad that the other party knew a little Intis, otherwise he would have to rely on key words to communicate or catch him back to have Lugano translate. "Juan Oro." The middle-aged man answered without hesitation. Juan Oro... the president of the Fisheries Guild, the former mayor of Milo Village? Lumian smiled and said: "You are so frank." The middle-aged man forced a smile and said: "I don't think I'm stronger than the 'Devil Wizard' and can defeat you." "That's right. Only those who can recognize the situation and themselves can live longer." Lumian put his right foot on his left leg. "Why does Juan Oro want to monitor Paco's family?" "I don't know, and there's no need to know. I can get paid as long as I pass on what I see." The middle-aged man looked sincere. Lumian stared at him for a few seconds and said: "Did you send out that little monster last night?" The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment and said: "What little monster? "What happened last night?" Lumian chuckled and stood up without explaining. "What's your name?" he asked as he walked towards the door. The middle-aged man hesitated for a moment and answered truthfully: "Sanches." Lumian opened the door, walked out, and disappeared from Sanchez's sight. ………… After returning to the Solo Hotel, Lumian saw a piece of letter paper folded into a square on the desk in the master bedroom. He unfolded it skillfully and saw the handwriting of the "magician" lady as expected: "You can tell the Two of Cups those things, but don't go into too much detail. "I didn't explain the sounds you heard and the fragments of civilization you saw before because they are still too advanced for you. You just need to remember that in ancient ruins like Trier in the Fourth Epoch, you must not listen or see anything recklessly. Also, remind your wizard friends that it's okay to listen to the teachings of the Hidden Sage occasionally, but don't really believe in Him. His current state is also not right." After Lumian burned the paper, he thought about it and decided to "teleport" back to Trier directly to tell Franca in person to avoid any accidents that would make it too late to rescue her. ………… Trier, Monumental quarter, Orosei Street 9, apartment 702. When Lumian's figure appeared, Franca and Janna were looking through a pile of ancient materials collected from somewhere. "Hey, can't you 'teleport' to the outside and knock on the door? It's scary to appear suddenly like this!" Franka almost tightened the invisible "spider silk" that had been arranged in the room for a long time. Lumian laughed and said:

"With the inspiration of 'Witch', what is the difference between me 'teleporting' outside the door and 'teleporting' to the living room?" "Why did you come back suddenly?" Franca paused and said, "Ms. Magician said she could tell me that thing?" "What's the matter?" Janna asked bewilderedly. She stood up and made a gesture to avoid it. "Yes." Lumian responded to Franca's question, but did not stop Janna from leaving. Seeing this, Franka did the same. After Janna entered her bedroom, Lumian said to Franca: "When they were sharing their dreams about the wilderness, I thought of the voices I heard and the images I saw in Trier in the Fourth Epoch. They were related to the 'Heavenly Master'!" PS: Please give me double the monthly tickets at the end of the month.
