Kaping Villa

   Chapter 190: Kapin Villa

  Klein lay on the bed, the more he thought about it, the more uneasy he felt, and the more itchy his heart felt.

  When he asked Otto to choose his code name just now, Otto chose to leave it to fate and chose to close his eyes and draw directly.

  Klein had no objection, because he had already eliminated eight cards, "Justice", "Hanged Man", "Devil", "Sun", "World", "Magician", "Emperor", and "Wheel of Fortune" from the twenty-two Major Arcana cards, and there was no possibility that Otto would have the same name.

  Then, Klein watched Otto draw a "Fool" card from the deck.

  A reversed "Fool" card.

  How could he forget to remove the "Fool" card!

  He clearly remembered to remove the other cards!

  However, Otto did not insist on being Mr. Fool of the Tarot Club, but was very tactful and drew again.

  He drew a "Tower" card.

  As a fortune teller, Klein knew that "divination" would be greatly enhanced above the gray fog called "Source Castle".

  And Klein could see that Otto was definitely a Beyonder of a high sequence.

  Then this Fool card was interesting.

  How could I allow others to snore beside my bed!

  After rolling back and forth on the bed twice, Klein decided to refuse mental exhaustion and picked up his phone to start messaging Serris.

  I am the King of Reports in charge of sweet iced tea, how could I be stumped by you?

  After doing all this, Klein felt relieved, lay back on the bed, and used meditation techniques to enter the dream.

  He still had to go to the dungeon tonight.

  Simulate the universe, start.

  Soon, a screen appeared in front of Klein.

  Please choose a route.

  *If you can't connect or take a screenshot, please try to switch routes.

  Route 1, smooth.

  Route 2, smooth.

  Route 3, smooth.

  Route 4, smooth.

  Klein took a breath and retreated tactically.

  This... is heaven!

  Klein hesitated for a few seconds and reached out to point to Route 1.

  People will go to heaven eventually.

  Let me test the waters.

  ...

  Wednesday afternoon, at the World's End Tavern.

  Xing stood at the door of her room with the "Master Key".

  Click.

  Locked the door.

  Click.

  Opened the door again.

  Repeated this process over and over again for more than a dozen times.

  Xing has tried this Master Key several times.

  Its extraordinary ability of "opening a new map" is really useful, but the prerequisites are too troublesome every time it is used. It takes a long time to open the locks.

  She saw that other extraordinary items can be used directly after being injected with spirituality, so why is it so troublesome for her?

  Xing couldn't figure it out, and she was too lazy to think about it.

  In summary, it's better to count.

  Open, close, open, close.

  After repeating this process countless times, Xing suddenly had an intuition.

  It finally started.

  A very good development that makes my bat spin.   

  She randomly chose an anchor point and teleported there, then began to wander around in this dark place like a headless fly.

  Three minutes later, a lady wearing a hood and classical robes took Xing by the scruff of the neck and brought her out of the Chanis Gate under the Church of St. Samuel in Backlund, the Church of the Night.

  The lady had a beautiful face but no expression, and her black eyes were dark and deep but lacked spirituality.

  However, in those deep and lifeless eyes, a trace of helplessness could be vaguely seen.

  No one stopped them along the way, just as no one could see them.

  As for why there was an anchor point behind the Chanis Gate.

  This is normal. Wild domain anchors are always randomly refreshed, and the nameless guests entering the confidential place are like going home.

  This is the gold content of the universe's first evil force.

  After all, not every faction can eat aliens as vegetables.

  Xing did not struggle, but quietly inserted anchor points along the way.

  Inserted anchor points from the second floor behind the Chanis Gate all the way to the entrance of the Church of St. Samuel.

  But when Xing was put on the ground and looked back, she noticed that the boundary anchors disappeared quickly with the lady, just like a pencil drawing erased by an eraser.

  This is really outrageous! She had never suffered such an injustice in her long career as the Great Star Lord!

  How dare they seal her anchor point!

  She immediately turned around, raised her bat, and screamed, shouting something like "I knew that life was difficult when I was young" and was about to rush into the church, but she plunged into a deep darkness.

  When she rushed out of the darkness, she found herself in a new map.

  In front of her was a luxurious villa surrounded by a garden.

  But the first person to enter her eyes was an old acquaintance.

  The knight with long red hair, Silver Branch.

  That's right, you can see wild red roses everywhere. They are usually tenacious and can grow in any place you don't expect.

  As long as you are willing to shout "I admit that the pure goddess Idrila is unparalleled in beauty" when you are in danger, the roses growing on the roadside will evolve on the spot and become rose muscle men to stir-fry all dangers.

  "Good afternoon, dear friend. We are so in tune with each other that we can appear in the same place at the same time." Yinzhi was very happy to see Xing coming.

  "Good afternoon." Xing casually inserted the anchor point and saw the randomly generated name on it.

  Kaping Villa.

  "A new map has been opened, great." Xing raised his hands.

  "You are still as righteous as ever." Yinzhi nodded with satisfaction, "I believe you also spent a lot of effort to investigate all the way here."

  "No, no. I was teleported here by the key NPC in the plot." Xing immediately denied. "But it's good to skip the decryption, but I may need you to help me supplement the premise of the plot."

  Yinzhi thought and tried to understand Xing's words.

  So that's it. My dear friend didn't want me to worry, so he used vague words to blur his own hard work. How pure and beautiful it is.

  "In that case, let me explain it." Yinzhi turned and looked in the direction of the villa.

  "These few days, I heard about a recent missing persons case. A large number of girls disappeared on the streets or in the park."

  "Under Idrila's guidance, I found this place. Although there is no evidence, I have a hunch that this is where the missing girls are."

  Mind power, boy.

  Then, Yinzhi sighed in distress.

  "It's a pity that as a knight, I can't directly intervene in this matter without evidence. This goes against my chivalry."

  After saying that, he looked at Xing with hope.

  He knew very well how powerful his best friend was.

  Because he had heard such a rumor:

  According to legend, if a person's wish is too strong, then the gods will cast their eyes on him and generate an exclamation mark on his head. After that, golden, white, gray, and blue hair will appear out of thin air. As long as they are given some shiny little stones, they can be driven to heaven and earth.

  Just thinking about it.

  Ding.

  A golden exclamation mark suddenly appeared on Yinzhi's head.

  That's right, it's a task guide!

  Xing immediately took out a pink feather pen out of thin air as if he had been injected with chicken blood.

  "Looking for evidence, right? Leave it to me."

  (End of this chapterArtwork

   Chapter 191 Artwork

  Xing waved a feather pen and wrote two pink characters in the air in the language of Omphalos.

  "Past, reappearance."

  The power of memory and destiny spread in an instant. The characters twisted into a light pink screen.

  The screen showed the scene that happened in Kapin Villa last night.

  It was a small, dark room with several unconscious girls lying. From time to time, cries, screams and curses echoed outside.

  A little girl woke up and seemed to be scared, so she shouted for help. But she was kicked over by someone who opened the door and couldn't stand up in pain.

  She shed tears and kept whispering words like "Mom".

  A man stood outside the room, stretched out his left hand to the door, and said in a majestic and low tone: "Confinement."

  The majestic attitude spread and sealed the room.

  Looking at the screen, Yinzhi pursed her lips and turned to look at Xing beside her.

  Xing, who was originally smiling, had become expressionless.

  She used a feather pen to scratch the screen, and the scene changed.

  The scene changed to a magnificent hall, where young girls either crawled on their stomachs to serve alcoholic drinks to guests, or let them curse and be beaten.

  They were all young, with painful and numb expressions. If they were a little slow or not enthusiastic enough, Kapin's waiters or maids would whip them with whips.

  These servants witnessed the evil scene, but they had no sympathy at all. They rushed to show themselves and tried to gain praise.

  Yinzhi looked at Xing again and found that Xing was not looking at the screen, but fiddling with his phone. He

  looked up and saw Xing searching for "The Ten Tortures of the Ten Kings of Xianzhou".

  Yinzhi opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopping.

  Finally, he closed his eyes and turned his head back.

  The voice of Serres suddenly rang in Xing's ears.

  "No, the immortals of Xianzhou are immortals. They can have their heads reattached even if they fall off. This doesn't apply here. We need to analyze the specific situation here."

  As he said this, he stuffed a ball into Xing's hand: "This is a wonderful little toy I made with reference to Bu Liren's Chiyue and Luofu Jianmu. Under its illumination, living things will be polluted and become immortal evil creatures."

  Xing took the ball and looked back at Serres: "Do masked fools also have a sense of justice?"

  "No." Serres answered very straightforwardly, "But they make me unhappy."

  A very sufficient reason: because I want to mess with them.

  Yinzhi seemed to have thought of Serres's plan and couldn't help frowning.

  Torturing for 800 years is enough, but this is still too much.

  At this time, Yinzhi felt a push on his back.

  Alicia also came, and she pushed Yinzhi towards the dungeon of the villa.

  "Well, the upright knights will go with the beautiful angels to save the innocent girls, and the heroes will be the ones to defeat the devil."

  "That said, but I'm not a hero." Seeing the two walking away, Ceres chuckled.

  He led Xing across the street and walked towards the main gate of the villa and the guards at the gate.

  The guards saw someone coming and immediately stepped forward to stop them.

  Without listening to what the guards said, Ceres flipped his wrist, and four tarot cards with "devil" painted on them flew out of his hand, hitting the four guards right in the middle of their brows.

  He didn't stop his eyes at the corpses and walked straight through the gate.

  If you're just guarding the gate, you don't have the qualifications to attend the banquet inside.

  So, be grateful.

  Xing, who was following Ceres, threw the ball in his hand, and the ball flew higher and higher, floating over the villa, like a moon.

  The crimson light shone down, illuminating everyone inside the villa.

  "Imprison!" A stern verdict sounded.

  What followed was a decree: "Anyone who illegally invades another's territory is guilty, and the guilty person..."

  Serris was not affected at all. He turned his head and looked at Xing, who was also indifferent: "Have fun."

  It's normal for children to be violent.

  It's even more normal for a two-year-old child to accidentally break a toy while playing.

  In order to make room for Xing, Serris' body disappeared quickly as if it was erased by an eraser.

  But he didn't leave, after all, he had to prevent the child from accidentally eating it.

  Ten minutes later, Xing left the villa, but Serris didn't follow.   

  He looked back at Kapin and others who were only paralyzed, and touched his chin.

  The child is still too soft-hearted.

  Thinking about it, he took out a horn.

  This is the "Word Spirit Horn", which has a similar effect to Kafka's "Word Spirit" and can control other people's behavior.

  He put the horn close to his mouth and whispered: "Then, let's start with the skin."

  "Sometimes... Ms. Sally's aesthetics is also worth learning from."

  ...

  Two hours later, the official Beyonder who received the report finally arrived.

  That's right, the report was made by the kidnapped girls.

  The sky outside the villa suddenly tore open an illusory door, covered with complex runes.

  This is a doorway seal that is essential for home and travel.

  Apprentices are really useful.

  Thanks to Abraham for their dedication.

  The door opened silently, and a handsome man in a neat suit walked out. He was in his forties, mature and elegant.

  He had a pair of golden eyes, and with just a glance, he locked onto the villa that looked intact and seemed like nothing had happened.

  At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and a figure flew over at high speed.

  It was an old man wearing a black soft hat and silver eyes with extremely serious eyes. He was wearing a black robe embroidered with storm symbols. He was the Cardinal of the Storm Church, the Archbishop of Backlund Diocese, and the God's Dove Ace Snake.

  "Why are you here?" Ace asked in a deep voice.

  The extraordinary events in the Cherwood District are under the management of the Holy Wind Cathedral, so he is qualified to ask this question.

  The handsome man replied with a bad face: "I live nearby, close to the West District."

  Snake is obviously not an idiot, but facing the Royal Extraordinary, even the grumpy old pigeon will not be reckless to expose it.

  The two did not say anything more, and landed on the ground at the same time and entered the villa.

  A fierce hurricane blew up and blew the door open directly.

  The scene inside made the two people's faces become serious.

  One by one, the skins of unknown animals were neatly placed at the door.

  But the difference between this carpet and ordinary fur carpets is that the hair on this carpet is shaved very cleanly.

  Behind the leather carpet is a wall that looks like it has been painted with a layer of wall paint. The texture of the wall paint looks very strange, as if it is a painting made of animal flesh and blood mixed with paint.

  Inside the room, there are exquisite bone furniture and equally exquisite decorations.

  On those furniture are exquisite dishes, most of which are cooked in various ways with various internal organs.

  The house is filled with a faint floral scent, and I don't know what kind of flowers it is.

  The floral scent is sweet and slightly bitter, a little sweet and greasy, mixed with a hint of rust, and mixed with several other indescribable smells, it smells very good.

  Snake walked forward and turned on his spiritual vision.

  Whether it is "carpet", "wall paint", "furniture" or "dishes" on the table, they all shine with spiritual light.

  Under the colorful spiritual light, the whole room looks like a dreamy and vibrant work of art.

  The thinking activity and spiritual strength of humans are much higher than those of normal animals, which makes the human spirit look more complex than that of animals.

  And what shines in this villa is a lot of complex, mixed, human spirituality. But now, these spiritualities belong to carpets, wall paints, furniture, and decorations.

  Snake frowned, and the royal demigod beside him also looked unhappy.

  The spirituality of living things will gradually dissipate after death, and now it means that they are all still "alive", just like Qilingos at the beginning.

  Snake suddenly thought of something, and suddenly felt a little nauseous, so he couldn't help but dry heave twice.

  He looked at the royal demigod beside him: "Are you good at divination?"

  The royal demigod took out a coin, which was a sealed object.

  He asked with a very unhappy face: "What do you want to divine?"

  "Divide whether they are still conscious?" Snake replied.

  The royal demigod's hand froze, looking at the "spiritual colors" full of the room, smelling the fragrance of flowers wafting past his nose, and suddenly he felt like vomiting.

  PS: Which sand coin reported it!

  (End of this chapterSpecial Guitar

   Chapter 192 Special Guitar The

  royal demigod suppressed his nausea and tossed a coin.

  This extraordinary item immediately flew up and landed in his palm.

  The number was facing up, indicating affirmation.

  Snake and the others performed divination several more times and finally came to a conclusion.

  The nobles, including Kapin, and their servants were all here.

  They were still conscious and very awake, and could clearly perceive everything that happened in the outside world.

  The perception of every part of their body, every piece of flesh and blood, and every piece of skin remained sufficiently active and connected in series.

  Touching the skin, the perception will be transmitted to the limbs, flesh and blood, bones, brain...

  and the organs and flesh exposed to the outside remained sufficiently active. They were like the latest tender meat, they would not scab, and would recover immediately after being injured.

  The two carefully avoided the carpet, did not touch the furniture and various decorations, and came to the painted wall inside the house.

  There were two tarot cards painted on it with various pigments.

  The Devil card and the Emperor card.

  "Devil..." Snake immediately focused on the Devil card.

  He remembered that the same tarot cards were used in the last case of Qilingos, and there was also a devil card in it.

  "Have you seen it?" The royal demigod glanced at Snake from the corner of his eye.

  "He was there last time, in the case of Qilingos." Snake replied, and then added, "Qilingos has not died yet."

  The royal demigod nodded, and without saying anything, he began to walk around the house.

  Soon, he found a guitar.

  There was a human face in the middle of the guitar where the sound hole should be.

  That was Kapin's face.

  Kapin's mouth was wide open, acting as a sound hole.

  But there were no eyes where the eyes should be.

  Looking up, the royal demigod found two eyeballs used for decoration on the head of the guitar.

  The eyeballs were facing the demigod, without bloodshot, like two simulated glass beads.

  But the demigod could sense the gaze on the eyeballs.

  The white strings of the guitar gave the demigod a very bad feeling.

  He observed it again.

  Lipids, proteins, carbohydrates...

  He closed his eyes and cursed in his heart.

  "Damn, it's the brain."

  He opened his eyes again and did another divination.

  Although this is a coin-shaped seal, its extraordinary ability is not just the simplest "yes" or "no" judgment. Every time it is thrown up, the user can see some pictures, which is similar to the ability of dream divination.

  "What's wrong?" Snake came to the royal demigod.

  "This is an extraordinary item. According to my divination, its extraordinary ability is very useful." The demigod told Snake without hiding anything.

  This item must be taken to the Storm Church for inspection later. It is meaningless for him to hide it here now.

  "The extraordinary effect is that by playing music, you can increase the spirituality of teammates, dispel negative effects, create holy light, and cast light magic."

  "What about the negative effects?" Snake continued to ask.

  "No negative effects." The royal demigod replied, "Or rather, the negative effects are not borne by the user."

  He pointed at Kapin's face and said, "The more pain you can make him suffer, the better the effect of the Beyonder ability will be."

  Snake took a deep breath and said, "This is fucking..."

  He turned and left, hammering his left chest with his right hand and praying to the Lord of Storms.

  ...   

  The next day.

  In the Queens, in the luxurious villa of Count Hall's family.

  Audrey was waiting for the maid to cut the food, when she suddenly heard her father, Count Hall, who was used to reading the newspaper at breakfast, laugh: "Kapin is dead."

  Seeing the news of Kapin's death in the newspaper, Count Hall couldn't help laughing because he couldn't bear the sadness. Kapin

  's death caused a huge sensation in the whole of Backlund. Many noble children, including Audrey, raised the same question as soon as they knew Kapin's death.

  "Who is Kapin?" Audrey asked.

  In fact, she was not curious about who Kapin was, but simply cooperated with her father who obviously wanted to communicate.

  Audrey remembered that she had seen it in a psychology book.

  Regardless of age, men's psychological unity is attributed to "child psychology".

  And appropriate agreement can make them happier.

  This is not only the specialty of his daughter, but also the instinct of a "mind reader", and it is also the professional habit developed by the first supporting actor of the Tarot Club at the meeting.

  "A wealthy man who may be a human trafficker in private has good relations with some people, haha..." Earl Hall chuckled, "He was killed last night, the scene... you eat first. If you are curious, we can show you after dinner."

  "Okay." Audrey nodded obediently.

  Earl Hall glanced at the newspaper in his hand again.

  "Well, it was done by the Tarot Club again."

  She suddenly became interested in the murder of Kapin.

  "Tarot Club? I remember I have heard their name several times. This is a very active organization recently."

  Audrey accelerated her eating speed, opened her mouth, and bit off the small cake worth three months' salary of Mr. Fool.

  "Did they spill the Tarot cards again?" Audrey asked vaguely.

  The family style of the Hall family has always been relaxed, and there is no saying that you should not talk while eating or sleeping, so Earl Hall did not blame Audrey for this unladylike behavior, but just reminded her: "Be careful not to choke."

  "Okay." Audrey swallowed the cake with force. The cake equivalent to Mr. Fool's three months' salary completed its mission.

  "The police and the church's corresponding departments did not reveal specific details, and I haven't met them yet. The newspaper described it this way: According to the rescued people, there were at least two visitors, and the police speculated that there might be three or four people."

  "Two of them were responsible for rescuing people and rescued the girls in the dungeon. But the rescued people couldn't remember the appearance of the two people. They only remembered that they were very beautiful, and that they remembered that there was an angel and a knight. The police speculated that the visitors might have used some kind of hallucinogenic drugs."

  It might also be extraordinary abilities. Audrey added in her heart.

  But... the beautiful knight...

  Audrey immediately thought of the Pure Beauty Knight.

  If it was the Pure Beauty Knight, it would definitely not be possible for him to sit idly by and watch such a thing.

  "There were also one or two others. When their companions rescued the hostages, they entered Kapin's villa and not only stole all the property in the safe, but also stole the lives of Kapin and his evil subordinates."

  These were indeed taken by Xing. This is a treasure chest, and it is the reward that Xing deserves.

  Seeing that Audrey had finished eating, Earl Hall emphasized again,

  "Are you sure you want to listen?"

  After Audrey nodded, Earl Hall continued to read the contents of the newspaper.

  "Kapin was killed, his skin was made into a carpet, and his flesh and blood were painted on the wall, pieced together into an emperor card and a devil card. And his remaining parts were made into a guitar with a retro pattern."

  Audrey couldn't help but widen her eyes.

  So cruel!

  She subconsciously began to speculate.

  The emperor and the devil...

  Miss Emperor doesn't seem like someone who would do such a thing, so it must be Mr. Devil.

  But this doesn't suit Mr. Devil's preferences. Compared to the form of the result, he should care more about the process.

  So...

  (End of this chapter Can We Form a Lifetime Tarot Club?

   Chapter 193 Can we form a lifelong Tarot Club?

  So that Capin is still alive! He is still conscious! He clearly knows that he has been made into a guitar!

  If someone plays him, he might be able to feel it clearly!

  Oh my God... this...

  Audrey analyzed the personality that Ceres had shown to her before.

  She had completely digested the potion of the Pre-Rehearsal House, and this gave her a significant improvement in her ability to predict and speculate, including the ability to speculate a person's behavior and thoughts when only partial information was available.

  If it was simply made into a musical instrument, it would definitely not be possible.

  After all, the user of a musical instrument made by a person would definitely feel uncomfortable.

  So there would need to be a motivation for people to use it.

  For example... to make it into an extraordinary item?

  Seeing that Audrey didn't speak, Mrs. Hall thought her daughter was scared. She glared at Earl Hall, causing Earl Hall to smile and cover his face with a newspaper.

  ...

  At No. 15 Minsk Street, Klein was eating white bread with jam while flipping through today's newspaper. He glanced at the newspaper.

  "Human trafficker Capin was killed, the scene was weird and artistic, is the mysterious organization Tarot Club a terrorist organization?" "

  Hmm? And our business?

  No need to think about it, it was done by Serres again.

  Klein drank a sip of Xibo black tea and slowly exhaled a breath of hot air.

  "The human trafficker was killed at home and his skin..."

  "...Although the Tarot Club's methods are as radical as ever, we can see that every target of the Tarot Club is a threat to society, and even this Kapin cannot be called a human. In this case, our reporter reasonably speculated that perhaps the Tarot Club is not a terrorist organization..."

  After reading this report, Klein put down the newspaper and smacked his lips.

  Ha, it even cleared us. Klein laughed in his heart.

  The phone suddenly rang.

  Sow Prince: "I predicted that there will be a big melon in the church today, come quickly."

  Want to make a lot of money: "What's wrong." Sow

  Prince: "Come to see the gay."

  Klein typed a question mark.

  Want to make a lot of money: "Do you know? Your hobby is actually very niche, so there is actually no need to share it."

  Sow Prince: "Shocking melon, you will know when you come."

  Seeing Serres emphasize so much, Klein shrugged.

  He quickened his pace, finished his breakfast, put on a heavy double-breasted frock coat, took a half-high silk hat and a black hard cane, took Padu, and teleported directly to the Mercy Church through the anchor point.

  Klein picked his teeth with a toothpick and walked to the prayer hall in a relaxed manner.

  After spending so much time together, Klein could already behave in front of Serres without any airs.

  He walked to Serres and sat down, handing him a newspaper.

  "Is this you?"

  "It's me." Serres nodded. "How is it? Pretty good, isn't it?"

  Klein nodded. He didn't think Serres was being too much. After all, he didn't treat human traffickers as human beings.

  "You're doing this to Kapin, what about the others?" Klein asked curiously.

  "Devoted to art." Serres answered simply, "Flowers always need green leaves to set off."

  Klein nodded: "Then why did you make it into a guitar?"

  "Hey, this is not an ordinary guitar, it has a very high gold content." Serres raised a finger and shook it.

  "How high?" Klein asked.   

  "As high as three or four floors." Serres gestured, then began to explain its composition.

  "First, I blessed them with the power of [Abundance] and transformed them into immortal evil creatures." Serres looked at the ceiling and introduced his masterpiece with a little pride.

  Klein's expression froze when he heard the first step.

  Because he had guessed the sequel.

  "Then, I used [Memory] and [Preservation] to strengthen their spirits so that they would never collapse." Serres raised his hands, then clenched them hard in front of his chest, and Klein's body trembled.

  So... so scary.

  "Then, I used [Harmony] to connect the perception of every piece of skin, every piece of flesh, every bone and even every cell on their bodies together." Serres gestured a circle.

  "Then," Serres turned his head and looked at Klein, "I changed their 'objective existence state' and changed their form to ensure that they would never be able to return to their original appearance under the interference of forces below the angels."

  Klein was already having a toothache.

  "Finally," Serres smiled and nodded, "Because I deprived them of their ability to move, as the [Balance], I have granted them super perception. In the days that follow when they cannot move freely, their perception of the outside world will be stronger than the day before."

  Klein had completely lowered his head.

  It was too scary... too scary...

  Kmaomao wanted to go back to his nest...

  "Hey, why are you so scared?" Serres patted Klein's shoulder, "We are good friends, how could I do this to you."

  Klein calmed down a little and thought of a crucial question.

  "So, how long can they live?"

  "My control over [Abundance] is not as good as [Pleasure], so it is difficult to mark the life limit for each of them. So..." Serres grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth, "How long I can live, how long they can live."

  Klein was silent.

  How long can a Pleasure Master who controls [Abundance] live?

  It could be a hundred years... a thousand years... ten thousand years.

  But the greater probability is...

  eternal life.

  "Huh." Klein let out a long breath, "I'm glad we're friends."

  "Not entirely," Cyrus shook his head, "Joyful Walkers, especially Masked Fools, we are notoriously fickle in the universe."

  Klein nodded, looking at Cyrus with a firm and sincere look: "So, promise me, we'll form a lifelong Tarot Club, okay?"

  "Are you a pure Japanese high school girl?" Cyrus moved aside with disdain.

  Klein felt that he could still struggle: "At least you can wait until I die before changing your mind."

  "I don't lack the means to resurrect people." Cyrus made a strange noise.

  At this time, someone walked in from the gate and entered the church.

  The man was of medium build, with a wide black robe covering his entire body, and an iron mask on his face. The black-

  robed man walked to Cyrus and Klein, deliberately lowered his voice, and said in a hoarse voice: "Excuse me, who is Bishop Cyrus?"

  From the sound of the voice, it was a man.

  "That's me." Serres stood up and smiled at the black-robed man in front of him.

  "I heard that you can sell some extraordinary materials that can't be found anywhere else, right?" the black-robed man asked.

  "Yes, that's right." Serres nodded.

  The black-robed man pinched the iron mask on his face and continued in a hoarse voice: "I need the silk glands of an adult giant widow spider."

  The silk glands of an adult giant widow spider? It sounds familiar, I seem to have heard of it somewhere... Klein frowned slightly and tried to recall it without divination.

  Suddenly, he remembered the source of the familiarity: this is one of the main ingredients of the "Pleasure Witch" potion!
