Dominate the Treacherous Realm
Chapter 537
turned around and ran towards the wall, and then a pounce directly hit the side wall on which the three-story wooden board was boarded, and fell from the third floor to the ground outside.
This kind of monster whose heart is shattered by a sword and can't die, naturally won't die because of falling damage. And it dropped from the sky hastily, which also caused panic among other pedestrians in the camp.
I don’t know whose luck is better. Below it happens to be a vendor selling cheap clothes. After the ghoul fell, he grabbed clothes to cover up his unusual skin and face. Jenkins didn’t see what it had thrown downstairs, but the flames immediately jumped up, just like the tower. The building material is not wood but oil.
The young woman (Jenkins) standing in front of the knocked-out hole, her clothes wavy in the afternoon breeze, standing with her back to the sun, so that pedestrians could not see clearly.
subconsciously stretched out his hand to stop the fire with [Condensing Ice], but the flames swiftly spread, and when the ghoul fled to the crowd watching the fire, it became more and more out of control.
In this case, using [Ning Bing] rashly will definitely cause widespread concern. Although the church has confidentiality regulations for ordinary people to contact extraordinary, but now hundreds of people downstairs are watching here, Jenkins does not want to cause too much trouble for Nolan's church, after all, the church has enough trouble.
He turned around and left before the hole, and didn't have the thought of chasing the ghoul. After awakening Mr. Dubai and the middle-aged accountant, the three quickly walked to the auction hall.
At this time, the girls also knew about the fire downstairs. The billowing black smoke was pouring out of the joints of the wooden floor below, and the crackling and burning sound approached here little by little.
It is obvious that this building did not use fire-resistant paint or other fire protection measures. The combination of dry wood and breezy weather caused the flames to burn to the second floor almost immediately and spread around the camp with the tower as the center.
It’s definitely impossible to run upstairs. Once the load-bearing beams downstairs are burnt, the possibility of people upstairs falling to death is only slightly less than the possibility of burning to death.
"Walk down before it reaches the third floor."
Jenkins spoke from the stairs leading downstairs, but no one responded to his call. He could only look back at the frightened Briney standing with his friends in the crowd, and then he held the stone box in one hand and his cat in the other and rushed towards the fire on the second floor, and soon there were heavy footsteps. Then disappeared downstairs.
Chapter 1304 Chapter 1283 The Visit of Miss Mirror and Glasses
Seeing the brave girl (Jenkins) disappearing at the corner of the stairs, the people trapped on the third floor looked at each other. Some people wanted to follow Jenkins' bold steps, but they were forced back by the fire without taking a few steps.
Someone wants to jump out of the window, but this is a tower, not an ordinary building. The height of each floor is higher than the average height of each floor of an ordinary building. Jumping down from the current position is basically equivalent to jumping down from the attic roof of a four-story apartment facing the street.
In addition, the camp outside was also a sea of fire at this time. Not to mention the ladies as guests, even the men as guards did not have the courage.
"Look over there!"
The girl standing at the window suddenly shouted, and people flocked to the window.
I saw a towering ladder like an ancient siege ladder moving slowly toward this side in the distance of the sea of fire that was spreading outward.
It was Jenkins who pushed this ladder naturally. After he went downstairs, he saw that there was no one nearby, so he directly constructed this big exaggerated ladder by reading and writing. Although it looks exaggerated, only the stone skin on the surface is real stone, and the inside is actually full of solid ice. He happened to find a water storage bag in a store nearby. Without this, his [Condensed Ice] could not gather in the air. Come so much water.
There is a round wooden wheel drawn by Jenkins at the bottom of the ladder. This kind of thing is quite impractical, but fortunately, he only needs to push a short distance.
After the top of the ladder touched the window, Jenkins immediately disappeared from below and returned to the sea of fire on the first floor of the tower. After finding the load-bearing pillars, he used his own ability to protect those pillars from being burned against the sea of fire, in order to win more time.
waited until Britney escaped safely and the people upstairs also escaped from the third floor before ran out of the fire. First went to destroy his own ladder, and then hurriedly ran into the distance.
Three hours later, the setting sun went down and the flame finally went out, but the camp had been burned to ruins, leaving only traces of the central towers.
black smoke rises from the ruins, and deflagrations will occur from time to time. A large number of people gathered outside the camp. The city hall, fire forces, reporters, local residents, and doctors and wounded were intertwined. The noise could even be heard by Jenkins and Hathaway on the hill a few miles away.
The two silently looked at the black smoky ruins in the distance, after a long time Hathaway asked with difficulty:
"I just asked you to follow Britney to find out what she is doing. How could you make things like this?"
"It's all accidents..."
Jenkins is difficult to explain, even if he has already explained the encounter with the ghoul, the coincidence is indeed worth thinking about. Fortunately, Britney was not injured. After hearing the news, Hathaway had already visited Jenkins before meeting her. Goldilocks had no other problems except for being frightened.
Now that Britney has returned to her home in the city, I believe Mrs. Mikhail will not let her go out again in a short time.
"The body of the ghoul is extremely flammable. The one I killed is probably burned to ashes. I will go to the black market in a while and pass the whole story to the church through an intermediary, and the church will investigate the escaped one. Ghoul."
He can only get around Britney's topic. After all, Goldilocks's encounter with this crisis was indeed directly caused by Jenkins.
Hearing Jenkins’ words, Hathaway nodded slightly, thinking that Mr. White Cat mentioned in the last party that the three types of [Ghoul] [Frenzy] and [Bonechewer] were mixing together to plan a conspiracy. I reminded Jenkins that Nolan’s ghouls are likely to be more than those two.
Jenkins naturally understood what she was thinking of, and then said that he would exaggerate some of the details when passing on the information to keep the church sufficiently vigilant.
The main reason for this afternoon's development to this point was the ghoul and Jenkins, as well as the stone box he was holding.
The box has been checked, and it is the patterns on it that have played a role in concealing the aura. But after trying, these lines are specifically designed for the mirrors in it, and other spiritual materials will still have aura after putting them in.
Only one-third of the mirror is left in the broken stone box. Jenkins has also figured out that it is the [Missing Treasure Hunting Bronze Mirror] numbered B-07-4-2637.
This is a very strange mirror. The complete mirror has three fragments, and the three different fragments have all been found in history, even in the same era. Based on the leftover drawings, people can be sure that the three mirrors with different edges are an integral part of a whole copper mirror.
But the three broken mirrors have never been put together. Any attempt to restore them will inevitably lead to failure. And a single piece of broken mirror, such as the side in Jenkins's hand, carried on the body can increase the success rate of finding things.
For example, if you forget where you put your home key, you can quickly find it with this mirror.
As for how the virtual concept of "increasing the success rate" was tested, I am afraid it will be explained by the [Destiny and Lawful Church].
Of course, broken mirrors can also be used as disposable items. The specific method is to randomly find a way to discard it, and write the items you want to find on the mirror with your own blood while discarding.
When the broken mirror is discarded, the discarder can pick up clues to help him find the item, and the lost mirror can never be retrieved.
The so-called "clues" here are not blueprints such as treasure maps pointing to clear locations, but abstract clues, and the more you want to find precious things, the more obscure the clues will be.
The only exception is that what I want to find is one of the three mirrors. Then when the mirror is discarded, the discarders themselves will disappear, and no one knows where they have gone.
"You can never find each other, but you can find other objects. This is destiny."
This is the last sentence of the document that Jenkins saw.
In short, this is a very useful thing. The ghouls are looking for this mirror, probably because Mr. White Cat mentioned the "treasure" under the construction site of the "Fidicary Kingdom Bank Nolan Branch".
Hathaway suggested that Jenkins take it to Roon so that the ghouls would never find it again.
"Also, remember to write to Britney and write some sweet words to comfort her. If you can't write, I can help you write, but you must send it to Nolan."
Hathaway still did not forget to tell, only that Jenkins wrote the letter, and then gave it to Britney a week later.
"I understand, I will comfort her well."
"It’s good to understand. I wanted to keep you overnight tonight. Now that’s the case, I can only accompany Britney. I don’t want you to have dinner anymore. When you come to see me next time, remember to write the letter and I’ll read it for you. one look."
After speaking, the red-haired lady turned and left. After a few steps, Jenkins still didn't hear Jenkins's voice keeping her. So turned around and wanted to question, but Jenkins and his cat had disappeared among the green leaves.
"This guy......"
the woman said angrily.
Jenkins naturally didn't hear Hathaway's less obscure suggestion, so when he returned to Luen, he was still depressed, worried that Brian was frightened because of the harm, and would be hated by the red-haired girl for a while.
Later, Alexia, who came back from the city, asked what happened and came to the conclusion that Jenkins was too idle recently. As Dolores is busy with official duties, she suggested that Jenkins can appropriately reduce the number of times he returns to Nolan, and instead help with some unimportant documents in the manor, or hold a public speech in Ruen or even sign the book:
"The beautiful ladies of Luen, they are all waiting for you."
She said so.
After dinner, Jenkins used the spiritual magnet stored in the ice castle to return to the snow mountain, then took out the three chess pieces, the knight, the astrologer, and the priest, and returned to the manor to give Dolores.
After fighting with the ghoul today, he found that although the basic damage of these chess pieces is not better than most of his own abilities, they can still play a role in the face of a group of people. So let Dolores keep it. It is very safe for her.
So it came to Monday of the new week. After breakfast, the manor welcomed guests from far away. That was the Miss Spectacles Jenkins met in Hot Spring Town. After receiving an autograph from Dolores in Ruen, she traveled day and night and finally arrived in Ruen last night.
After dressing up all night, I saw Jenkins in the manor this morning.
has not seen each other in just three weeks. The looks and temperament of Jenkins and Miss Glasses have not changed much, but the two can't get along as equal as they did in the treacherous world.
Even though Jenkins still had his original attitude, he instinctively felt that Miss Glasses had an indescribable awe of him.
First of all, he asked about the health of another companion in the Adventures of Deception. Mr. Stone was mentally injured and he did not wake up when Jenkins separated from them. But now the situation is better. Although there will still be minor problems such as photophobia, the awake man is recovering step by step. If he wants to rest for a while, he can get rid of the haze of the treacherous world.
Talking about these is to get closer to each other, and then Jenkins didn’t go around in circles, but said very bluntly:
"Miss Glasses, if you want to come, you know from the letter that I have something to find you this time, not Dolores. Please don't be nervous..."
He saw that the woman sitting across the table was a little embarrassed, so he comforted him softly, and then asked:
"Although this is a bit impolite, I want to confirm your belief first... Excuse me, are you a believer of the great [the **** of ritual and mystery]?"
False **** believers are very embarrassing in human society, but these believers are not very few. Therefore, generally speaking, asking about faith after meeting is the same as asking about age, weight, or income. It is very impolite.
Chapter 1305 Chapter 1284 The Responsibility of Guarding Secrets
"my faith?"
Miss Glasses looked at Jenkins very seriously, "I can answer this question, but again, since you are asking about my privacy, I also want to ask about your privacy. What is your relationship with His Royal Highness Dolores?"
"I don't think you are such a gifter who likes gossip. What's the point of this question?"
Jenkins did not answer immediately,
"I want to confirm whether His Highness Dolores is worthy of my following. Since I choose to follow His Highness, I naturally have to be soberly judged whether my decision is worthwhile."
The woman said so, and her answer reminded Jenkins of Miss Magic. He immediately understood that from the bottom of his bones, the Miss Glasses and Miss Magic in front of him were of the same kind.
"I am the holy son of the Church of the Sage, and I promised to marry Dolores when she is eighteen."
He briefly introduced it.
"I understand that I am indeed a believer in our Lord [God of Mystery and Ritual], and I am proud of it."
The woman said seriously, and then added:
"You can choose your Highness, it is the luck of the Kingdom and His Highness."
"Thank you for your compliment... ahem."
Jenkins is a little embarrassed himself, but at least he hasn't forgotten the business matter this time, so he stopped going around and asked directly:
"Actually, this time you have worked so hard to come from Hot Spring Town to Ruen. There are some important things you want to ask. You don't have to be pressured. I know that some things may involve secrets that cannot be told. In short, since you are indeed The person I am looking for, then this is what I want to ask."
said, taking the slate of "Disaster Poetry" that had been prepared from under the desk. The mature and intellectual Miss Spectacles was obviously taken aback when she saw this, and then she shook her head blankly:
"Sorry, what is this? I don't know this thing."
"This is a lie."
Jenkins said in his heart that he was not surprised that Miss Glasses did not admit it. After all, it was the inheritance she inherited, the secret that she has been guarding since the 15th era and the responsibilities that countless people have kept for life. If Jenkins tells her as soon as she asks her, Jenkins will be surprised.
"This was not found in Luen, or even in the Kingdom of Hampavo. This is an antiquities found in Nolan City. I think you should know what Nolan means."
The lady in glasses sitting across from the desk nodded slowly, but said nothing, still looking at a loss.
"Since you don't want to say it, let me talk about it. I have investigated so far that this stone slab has something to do with the mad poet Cavendish who was active at the end of the 15th era."
When saying this, observe the expression of Miss Glasses. According to Miss Magic, the real name of "Cavendish" is only recorded in the sect of the **** of rituals and a few ancient documents.
But Miss Glasses still didn't say anything, her expression seemed to be curious about the story Jenkins was about to tell.
"The prototype of the slate is the material manifestation of the only sexual ability held by the mad poet Cavendish, and having a copy of the prototype is one of the conditions for obtaining that ability... these things, do you know?"
"Sorry, Baron, I don't know what you want to express."
The woman said embarrassedly.
"You don't need to use the formal name Baron, you still call me Mr. Cat, and I have no objection."
"But your status is noble, I naturally have to respect it."
"Then do you know who I am? I mean, in your opinion, who am I?"
Jenkins decided to ask questions in another way. He glanced at the cat standing on the desk. The cat was pointing his head at Dolores' ink bottle, shaking his nose as if sniffing the ink.
"You are a well-known young writer, a baron of the Kingdom of Fedictelli, and a...friend of Princess Dolores Stuart."
She said the word friend very ambiguously.
"Yes, but you missed a little bit. I am also a gifter from Nolan."
Miss Glasses did not answer the conversation, I don't know what Jenkins wanted to express.
"This slate was not found in Nolan by Dolores's hands, but I found it in Nolan. The situation at the time was very interesting. In addition to my friends and I, there was a group of people who wanted to grab this piece. Stone, but they were unlucky enough to be taken away by the Orthodox Church. Because of this, I began to wonder what this ordinary stone is."
"Someone wants to **** it?"
Miss Glasses hesitated before asking. Jenkins was relieved when she heard this question. She compromised because of the news.
"Yes, I have friends in the church. I am sure they are from a mysterious organization. That organization probably knows what this is and wants to use it to **** it."
He pretended to sigh, then pointed to the slate and said:
"I searched a lot of information and couldn't find information about this slate until I asked a friend, a friend who also believed in [the **** of ritual and mystery], and she told me about the mad poet.
That friend used to fight alongside me and he is very trustworthy. I have seen her use a kind of ability to summon the golden ritual base array to call the meteorite fireball to fall after jumping into the air... Then I remembered that this ritual, in fact, I also saw it when I was in Hot Spring Town. Once. "
Miss Spectacles was silent. At the end of Jenkins's words, she also understood the reason why she was found.
"That friend doesn’t know much about the mad poet, so I came to you. Let’s put it this way, ma’am, I am not a villain who wants to master evil powers, I just want to find out the origin of the mad poet and learn about it. A thing that may cause a worldwide disaster."
