"Yes, and it's an impermanent card that has never been recorded. But it's also normal. No one knows exactly which cards are in this set of cards related to fate."

　　 "Which one was found this time?"

　　 "[Vientiane Impermanence-World]."

　　 There are many words in lingua franca that mean "world", and Miss Audrey uses the most common and specific vocabulary.

　　 "Then who does this card belong to? The one who discovered it?"

"No, this card slipped out of the paper in front of many people, so there is no clear owner. The teacher said that the church is going to let her carry this card and the next batch of gifts to support Nolan. The squad is here together. If you are interested in this card, you can probably take a look."

　　 Jenkins came to see Miss Audrey for the main purpose of [Circulation]. When it comes to this topic, Miss Audrey strongly praised Jenkins for evolving [Circulation] into [Reciprocating Destiny]. Although it will lose the characteristic that gradually becomes stronger with the passage of time, Miss Audrey still believes that the role of the latter is greater than the former.

　　 The role of [Reciprocating Destiny] is difficult to express in words. When Ms. Audrey explained, she said a lot about Jenkins's incomprehensible knowledge of divination theory. According to his understanding, it is to fix the "destiny" that has occurred for a certain period of time, and repeat this destiny when needed.

　　 A simpler example, for example, one day Jenkins and the girls always win cards, then he can use his ability to record this fate, and wait until the next time he plays cards again, let this fate reappear.

　　 Of course, the abilities of destiny come at a price, and this is also strongly reflected in [Reciprocating Destiny]. Replace the current destiny with the past destiny, but this does not mean that the current destiny will disappear. This fate will profoundly affect the future, so the use of this type of ability requires extreme caution and caution.

　　 Jenkins had another choice besides [Fate of Reciprocating], he hesitated, and after Miss Audrey finished the introduction, he also said about [Writer (Purple Fate)]. As for the source of the ability, he didn't mention it, and Miss Audrey didn't ask.

　　 After listening, she looked at the giant tree in front of them, and did not speak for a long time, until the cat on Jenkins's shoulder yawned, she broke the silence:

"Whether you want to keep [Circulation], or which direction you want to evolve, you need to decide by yourself. I have all the ritual materials needed for [Reciprocating Destiny]. If you want to learn, we will wait for the teacher to come to Nolan. The ceremony can be held. It may be a bit difficult for me to preside over the ceremony for you. As for the ceremonial materials of [Writer], I am not clear about it, but you can prepare it yourself if you want to come. All I can give you is advice, which one to go This is your own business."

　　 Jenkins saw some clues from Miss Audrey's attitude. She obviously knew something, but she couldn't say it for various reasons. Jenkins thought for a while and thought that there was no need to worry about this, and he could wait for Miss Bronie Anse's return before asking her for advice.

　　 Besides, judging from the attitude of the old man, [Circulation] is very likely to be related to the [Evolution Key] he holds.

　　 As for what happened in the treacherous world, Jenkins said everything except to hide that Sigrid was "possessed" at the end. He still didn't know whether he saved the child on the roadside, whether it was history or fantasy, but if it was history, it wouldn't make sense. After all, the two monsters appeared because of Sigrid when they grew up.

"I think that is true history. You have once again filled in the vague past. For both you and Capet, this time of condemnation has formed a perfect closed loop of destiny. From then on, there is no debt to the past. , So I think you really entered the past."

　　 "Sigrid's fate is closed loop I can understand, but what does it have to do with me?"

　　 Jenkins asked suspiciously, leaning the umbrella in his hand to the side, and saw raindrops sliding down in series. He and the chocolate on his shoulders both looked up at this scene slightly, and the expressions of one person and one cat were surprisingly consistent.

"You usually take someone else's World Tree seed. Is it enough to compensate for a gift and one ability? The World Tree seed is not something that can be changed at will. Items of this level are all related to destiny. Not everyone is qualified to hold it, nor can it be given to others casually. This is the same as divine magic items that cannot be given away casually. There are profound reasons for this."

　　 Miss Audrey asked with one hand on her forehead, as if Jenkins had asked a silly question.

　　 Jenkins only understood a bit, but from this he thought of another thing:

　　 "But I still plan to ask for the soul of the tree, what should I compensate for this?"

Miss Audrey will also be rescued from the demigod after divination yesterday in the Evergreen Forest. From the traces of thunder and lightning left at the scene of the battle yesterday and the scene during the battle, the Mechanical Church has already recognized the one that attacked Jenkins. What exactly is a hammer. So they are even more anxious than Jenkins to find the escaped person. After all, it is possible to find another lost gift [Mechanical Heart] at once, or even to find the person who broke the clock.

Chapter 1796 Chapter 1767

In addition to Miss Audrey who wants to stay in the Evergreen Forest, Dad also stays here. Another saint of the Church of the Sage, Miss Strace and Dad also know each other, and the two still have things to deal with, so Jenkins can only return to the city by himself.

　　 He originally planned to go directly to the demigod of the Gear Craftsman Society after waking up today, but after touching the blood that was quietly collected, he found that the other party was hiding on the surface of the Nolan Eastern Mining Area and did not go deep underground. That location is obviously one of the strongholds where the gear craftsman will be on the surface. Although it is important, it is of little significance to Jenkins, so he wants to wait a bit to see if he can find the other party's more secret hiding place.

So there’s nothing else to do today. Jenkins didn’t want to go to the town hall meeting, so he went back to Privt Road’s home, and mentioned to his mother Mary that he would invite a distant relative, Miss Sigrid Capet, tomorrow night. Things to be a guest at home. This matter has been delayed for a full month, and all the preparations for the arrival of the guests have already been made, so Mary did not blame Jenkins for telling her the day before the invitation.

　　 "But besides Miss Capet, I actually invited others to come home with me."

　　 On the sofa in the living room, Jenkins said nervously, not even interested in petting the cat on his lap.

　　 "Are there any other relatives in our family?"

　　 Mary Williams in a sweater asked, it had been raining all day today, and now it is approaching dusk again, the temperature is indeed a bit low.

"Not a relative... I will probably be a relative in the future. In fact, I also invited a few girls to the house together. You know, it is Miss Stuart, Miss Mihail, Miss Miller and Hesha Miss, oh, Miss Julia Minnwick, Dolores’ personal maid, will probably be coming too. The one you know her is the one who came to the house last time."

　　Mary didn't speak, she looked at Jenkins while knitting her sweater. This is a very magical skill, she will not lower her head or make a mistake about the work in her hands.

　　 "Little Jenkins really grew up."

　　 Jenkins lowered his head and did not speak, looking at the cat on his knees, as if it was the first time I met chocolate.

　　 "How did you think that they would come with Miss Capet?"

　　 This tone is like asking why Jenkins doesn’t know that one plus one equals two.

　　 "I have to take them home sooner or later anyway, it would be better to come together, it would save some time."

　　 Jenkins explained in a low voice, not daring to look up at Mary's expression, but could overhear the sound of two long needles rubbing against each other.

"Okay...but the banquet at home is not serious. Tomorrow night is just a normal guest visit. Please remind the girls not to come in evening dresses or bring too expensive gifts. I don't want to Let others say that our family treats future girls who will be married into the family very harsh."

"Ok."

　　 Jenkins has already identified with Jenkins’s identity, and there is not much psychological barrier to treating his family, so after thinking about it, he plucked up the courage and asked:

　　 "So, you don't blame me...you provoke so many...girls?"

　　 Then I heard her mother Mary laugh, Jenkins looked at her puzzledly, the kind middle-aged woman, the mother of the three Williams brothers explained to her second son:

"If a stranger in the newspaper does this, I will spit on him when chatting with a neighbor; if someone we know does this, I will alienate him and tell you that you can't make friends with such a person; If your father did this, I would...let him know what else the needles for knitting can do. But you are different, Jenkins, you are my son."

　　 She looked at her elder son, who looked the most like her husband:

"I hope you, Newman, John, everyone can get married smoothly, have children smoothly, and spend your life smoothly. If the current life is what you want, I will not object to it, I will bless you, and then hope Can you let me hold the next generation of Serena as soon as possible..."

　　 Now, his expression becomes serious:

　　 "But Jenkins, although I am not against it, and I am even a little happy that you are not completely disinterested in women, but you have to know that your current approach is wrong and immoral. Don't be complacent about this matter, and cherish those girls."

　　 Jenkins nodded quickly, knowing that what he said was inappropriate at this time.

　　 did not go home after leaving from Privet Road, but went to tell Alexia and Dolores to visit Privet Road tomorrow night.

　　 Of course the two have no opinion, and Alexia also asked about what happened last night. She was in Luen all night, and when she came back this morning, the Child of the Mist incident was basically over.

　　 Alexia did not gain anything last night, because she obtained the permission of the Orthodox Church, so she set foot on the higher level of the tower this time. Also because of Jenkins's endorsement, I got the permission to read some taboo classics and materials.

　　 Originally, I continued to search for information about the difference engine. By the way, I tried my luck to see if there are legends and stories about the ancient demigods attempting to further sublimate. But neither of these two goals were achieved. Instead, Alexia saw some unexpected information:

　　 "Do you still remember the'Dealer'?" (Chapter 258)

　　 Jenkins was in a daze, and the memory returned to the autumn when he met [Treasure Elf]. He seemed to be buying firewood for the winter. On a whim, he wanted to take his cat to hunt in the forest. Then he accidentally discovered the information left by the cultists. It was also the first time he heard of the "Child of the Mist" project.

　　 While "Mr. Destroyer B" only appeared in the letter, Jenkins had not really met this person. It was only because the letter was addressed to Mr. Clark, the tree house demigod, that Jenkins mentioned it to Alexia once after getting acquainted with her. Unexpectedly, Alexia actually remembered this name, and after nearly a year, Jenkins once again thought of this person.

"At the time, Mr. B, the Destroyer, was related to Mr. Clark and the followers of the Undead Lord. I didn’t know which side this person belonged to, so I didn’t care at the time. I only thought that Mr. B was after the defeat of the [Undead Lord] believers. Also left Nolan. This title...is there a problem?"

　　 "The problem is big.

　　 Alexia nodded slightly and looked at Jenkins very seriously:

　　 "The first thing you can be sure is that the guy called'Mr. Destroyer B'in the letter you mentioned must be from the tree house."

　　PS: I hope you still remember the fateless person mentioned earlier.

Chapter 1797 Chapter 1768 The Death of the Proud One

　　 Alexia did not immediately explain the reason for her speculation of this conclusion, but asked Jenkins to sit down and talk. Jenkins, who was only going to be here to inform, had to sit down, and Alexia continued:

"I found an ancient rubbing of stone slabs in the tower called [Nibanlu]. The above describes dangerous symbols and rituals that have diametrically opposite meanings to the symbols familiar to the benefactor. Among them, [Fate Rebellion] is mentioned. This title, according to the book’s narrative, is a super-large ritual created by lunatics living in the more distant past to cater to their fate."

　　 "To cater to fate, isn't it to rebel against fate?"

　　 Jenkins asked with interest, and picked up the chocolate that was trying to pull the apples on the fruit plate on the table and put it on his lap.

"Long ago people realized that once they have observed fate, it is almost impossible to reverse it. So they invented another method to cater to fate while completely rewriting fate. That slate rubbing is incomplete. Ben, the true complete record has long disappeared, so I don’t know what kind of ritual this is. But I don’t think it can be such a coincidence. The defiant Mr. B you met happened to have the same You must know that the word “dead man” is not an ordinary word. It is quite a mouthful and is rarely used in daily life. It is said to be a word evolved from an ancient dialect."

　　 She paused:

　　 "But it may also be a coincidence."

　　 "This is worth investigating."

　　 Jenkins said, he thought for a while:

"Our two investigations will probably take a lot of time, so let me find an opportunity to use the identity of a lie believer and entrust Miss Stevier to help the investigation. In this way, the Orthodox Church will definitely help us find relevant clues as soon as possible. "

　　 "This is better, but I always have an ominous premonition."

　　 The short lady was still a little worried, but seeing Jenkins calm and calm, she subconsciously relaxed.

　　 The plan on Tuesday is to find the old man first, then go to the Bishop Parrod, and then deal with the flower girl, the artisan demigod, and Miss Stevier.

　　 The busy and compact plan was easily broken this morning.

　　 Jenkins awakened from the bed in the bedroom and glanced at his pocket watch. It was exactly six o'clock in the morning. He just treated it as a normal day, and after washing, he took chocolate and went downstairs.

　　 Julia, who had already prepared her breakfast, immediately hid in the kitchen after seeing Jenkins. This is because of what happened last night. For some reason, Hathaway urged Julia to knock on Jenkins’ door for the second time, but she didn’t say a second word to Jenkins, and the maid rushed towards The bathroom.

　　 Nothing happened afterwards, Miss Hathaway leaned on the door and teased Jenkins with really bad luck. Then in return for the lute, she walked into the room and closed the door.

　　 In short, it was a normal morning, and Jenkins reading the newspaper did not find any interesting news. He ate breakfast slowly, fed the cat slowly, and went out after greeting the ladies at home.

　　 The rain stopped yesterday evening, and the dense fog once again surrounded the city, making people’s good moods also stained with a layer of haze.

　　 Before Jenkins walked out of St. George Street, he suddenly heard a carriage coming from the opposite side. He stood by the wall and tried to avoid it, but after the carriage passed Jenkins, it stopped urgently. Jenkins even heard the horse abuse the coachman in a terrible way.

　　 "Jenkins, come up!"

　　Miss Windsor poked her head out of the carriage. Even early in the morning, she was well dressed, with light makeup on her face and smooth hair, but her expression was a little worried.

　　 "Good morning, Miss Windsor, I'm going to Dad's place, he said he has something to tell me today..."

　　 "Daddy will forgive you, something big happened!"

　　 Her face disappeared from the side window of the carriage, and then appeared from the door, pulling Jenkins up without any explanation.

　　 "What happened?"

　　 "Takov the proud is dead."

　　 "Huh? Who is dead? Takwen? Wait, you mean, the king of the Kingdom of Chessland, died in Nolan?"

　　 The Southland delegation live in the city like the Northland delegation. Although Nolan’s house has been a bit tight recently, it’s okay to find a big house to entertain guests.

　　 After Takwen left the city hall yesterday evening, he returned directly to the mansion where he was staying as usual. After processing the official documents and having a secret meeting with the accompanying officials, he proceeded to dinner normally.

After dinner, I met the nobles who came to visit from Nolan, and took the bus to the Royal Opera House to watch a scene. During the meeting, I met a prince from Stuart's family, but only accepted the polite greeting. .

　　Takov was resting at about eleven o'clock in the evening, because this visit was not accompanied by the queen, so he was the only one in his bedroom. The servants did not disturb him during the night. At 6:30 this morning, when the king was awake, the close attendant knocked on the door of the room. After delaying in responding, he rushed in and found that the king was dead.

When 　　 was discovered, Tuckwen had been dead for a long time, and even if time went back, Jenkins and the attendants broke into the bedroom this morning, they couldn’t be saved.

　　Although Chesland blocked the house urgently and asked Fidictelli to cooperate with the investigation, the news spread quickly, which made Miss Windsor rush to St. George Street to find Jenkins.

　　 The death of Takov made today’s talks definitely not going on. Not only that, when Jenkins and Miss Windsor were in a carriage to Queen Isabella’s residence, the police had almost sealed off the entire downtown area of ​​Nolan.

　　Miss Windsor also didn't know how Tuckwen died, whether the cause of death had anything to do with the giver. But now that the police are taking to the streets instead of nothing or the presence of the church, it is highly possible that so far, no evidence has been found that this matter has anything to do with the giver.

　　 The two got out of the car at the door of the house and were allowed to enter the house after going through stricter inspections than usual. There are obviously more than twice as many police officers and attendants in charge of security work near Queen Isabella’s residence now. It seems that she was also frightened by what happened this morning.

　　 After seeing the old man, he didn't make more stops. After meeting the dukes waiting here with Mr. Zhang, the group of people headed to the city hall mightily. On the tall steps in front of the city hall, Queen Isabella made a public speech to all citizens for the first time since she came to Nolan.

　　 She promised everyone that she would find the murderer as soon as possible, and promised that the guilty would be punished. At the same time, he expressed condolences to Cheslan and promised to compensate the royal family of Arecio.

　　 At the same time, Sarhi II on the other side also made a statement in the house where he lived. It also condemned the murderer, condemned this incident, and promised to work with the Kingdom of Fidcicle to find the murderer who killed the king of the southern kingdom.

　　 But this is the case. This afternoon, Jenkins was accompanied by Miss Windsor to read the police autopsy and the investigation report on the scene. The servant who rushed in handed a note to Miss Windsor, who changed his face and said to Jenkins:

"Takov’s eldest son, who is also Cheslan’s heir in de jure, announced in Turin an hour ago that the memorandum of the Armistice and Surrender Meeting signed by Takov was invalidated and that Cheslan will invest the nation’s forces to attack Fidickettli , Must avenge the dead king."

　　 Jenkins put down the paper in his hand, and threw the photo of Tuckwen’s body that cost a lot of money to the top of the file:

　　 "It was announced so soon? No, how did they know about Tuckwen's death? This is too impatient? So, is the war going to start again?"

　　 According to the current investigation, the death of the proud Takov was not a rare toxin, but tetrodotoxin. Nolan is a coastal city with a well-developed fishing industry. It is midsummer now, and this toxin is very easy to get.

　　 After investigating everyone around Takov last night, the poisoner was locked into the young chef in the kitchen. It was the Chesslan who came to Nolan with the Southland delegation. They were already trusted by Taks when they were in Turin.

　　 After the death of the king was discovered, the young chef also disappeared. The city was blocked in the morning to find him. But this was just an ordinary person. Queen Isabella, who realized the consequences of this incident, personally visited the temporary residence of the Destiny Church in Nolan, and then found the chef through divination.

　　 He also died. He committed suicide by taking poison. When he died, he was hidden in a fishery product warehouse in the Nolan Wharf area. The body was placed with a water tank full of pufferfish.

　　Because Salhi II and Isabella also invited the church to help, the church was also unwilling to let the flames of war burn in the middle of the mainland again, so they made an exception to participate in the investigation of this matter.

　　There are fortune-tellers from the Destiny Church. They came to the conclusion that day, that is, before Tuesday night, that the last person to meet with the dead chef was Mr. Horace Luther.

　　 "This name seems familiar."

　　 In the living room of Jenkins's home on St. George's Street, he looked at the documents and asked Miss Windsor suspiciously. Miss Windsor replied somewhat seriously:
