"Adjusting yourself is really a trial for yourself."

Xia De sighed softly, picked up the cat behind his head, and let it lie on his lap. Mia squinted lazily, not knowing whether she was dozing off or falling asleep.

"Have you tried?"

Luvia asked again, and Iluna shook her head regretfully, her long brown hair shaking slightly:

"I originally wanted to pay some property and try to make the scars on my arms disappear. But the court must be used by three people, and one of them must have the balance spirit rune."

In Iluna's core spirit rune, there is "balance". It didn't exist before, and it suddenly appeared on the second night she became the chosen one. This is also the first case that Xia De has encountered. After taking office as a ring warlock, he can still obtain the core spirit rune.

"Among the three, one holds a holy emblem as a judge, one stands below as an audience, and the last person controls the balance. Even if I am the chosen one, I cannot surpass the rules of that space itself."

"In other words, we have more things to look for."

Xia De couldn't help shaking his head, and Luvia smiled:

"But at least this time there's no need to find coins."

"Why"

Iluna asked curiously.

"My divination is only ineffective for a few things. Although I can find the relics containing the power of the gods, I can't find the statues and holy emblems. These two things are almost equivalent to the gods themselves. Even if I pay more coins, I can't do it. Divination."

That is to say, although Xia De knew the fifth white mist space left by the ancient gods besides the "corridor of time", "space maze", "silver moon library" and "delivery room of creation", he still couldn't get in.

Besides, even if he entered it, Xia De would have nothing to change. It's not that he is satisfied with the status quo, but that he is unwilling to give anything that belongs to him other than property.

That would make him feel like he wasn't whole anymore.

That's all the information Iluna got for the time being, after that, Xia De took her to visit his basement. Probably the soul of the "chosen one" is stronger, and Iluna was able to withstand the pressure of facing the statue of the ancient god, and touched the statue like Shad.

It's just that when she chanted the mantra and entered the space maze, the only road sign she could see was the one representing "Santa Teresa Square".

This gave Xia De a new understanding of this space. Those road signs are not recorded in the statue, but are recorded on the user.

Shad has opened up the signpost of "Cold Water Harbor" and touched the signpost of "Place Saint Teresa", so no matter where he uses the idol, he can see these two places again. But Iluna has never been to Lengshui Port, and there is only this road sign for the time being.

But Xia De got the second road sign, not because he went to other places to actively expand, but because he sacrificed the "White Stone Crystal". He intentionally asked Iluna to do the same, so that when he went to Coldwater Harbor to help Princess Rezia next week, he would have a helper by his side.

But when he told Iluna about this and was about to go to the Tobesk Mining Association to try his luck, the young girl with long brown hair asked suspiciously:

"What White Stone Crystal"

"Did your other me not receive the message left by the ancient god?"

Luvia asked curiously, Xia De had told her about this.

Iluna tilted her head to communicate with the voice in her head, then shook her head blankly:

"No information."

"Could it be that only Xia De can open up a new road sign by sacrificing the white stone crystal, and even if other people enter there, they must touch different statues to travel in space" 0

Luvia gave a very likely guess, but it was just a guess.

"Things like white stone crystals are precious, but I remember that there seems to be some in the church warehouse. I can find a chance to lend one, and then take it here for a try."

Iluna suggested, but all three instinctively felt that Luvia's guess was correct.

As long as there is a key, people favored by time can enter the corridor of time, but only Shad can truly travel through time; as long as they can find the hidden wall, people favored by space can enter the space maze for space travel, but only Shad can pass through. Sacrifice to get new waypoints.

In this way, maybe in other spaces left by the ancient gods, Xia De can also have a special performance. It's just that the Silver Moon Library lacks the "Yellow Moon" core spirit rune, and the Creation Delivery Room just heard that the Court of Judges needs additional holy symbols.

Xia De's conjecture can only be verified later.

He is looking forward to Iluna's return, not only hoping to see this girl who has experienced so many things as soon as possible, but also hoping that she can bring him "new surprises".

Even if she changes from a candidate to a chosen one, there is no shortage of accidents around the short brown-haired girl, and these accidents will prompt her to be promoted to the 13th ring as soon as possible.

Speaking of this matter, Iluna also shared with some distress the accidents she encountered on the way back to Tobesk with her church companions on the steam train. However, after returning to this city, her current life is fairly peaceful.

She already knew that Xia De was busy collecting 15 practical credits. Although Xia De no longer needed to find new relics because of yesterday's windfall, Iluna still brought what Xia De wanted .

"There's a lot going on."

The young girl couldn't help covering her head, and the three of them walked upstairs together, her tone was quite distressed:

"You know that the Blackstone security company I work for is actually the ring warlock team under the church. In addition to dealing with the tasks assigned by the church, we usually come to us to carry out ordinary tasks entrusted to us. If we have time, we must also solve them. Although Tobesk has five The family church, each church has a lot of teams like ours, but things can never be resolved."

As she spoke, she took out a folded piece of paper and handed it to Xia De, on which some entrusted information was recorded.

Blackstone Security Company is more inclined to solve the urgent tasks of the church first, and the second priority is those things that are related to mystery at first glance, and then other things. Therefore, there were quite a few requests from the security company, and Iluna transcribed a few that seemed to be problematic and brought them to Shad.

It's just that these missions have already been screened by the church, and then screened by the Ring Warlock team in charge of execution, so the chances of being valuable are very low. Iluna thought Shad might have a chance, so she picked out a few. And if Xia De solves the problem, then next week Iluna will select these tasks, apply for a private investigation, and then write an investigation report with no problems and submit it.

Therefore, Xia De can be regarded as lightening the task burden for Blackstone Security Company.

"Even if it's my luck, I can't encounter relics out of control every day. After all, there are only a few relics. After becoming the chosen one, the bad things that happened around me are obviously not as many as before. I'm sorry, Xia De, this time I may not be able to help you, and I cannot act with you today."

Iluna said with regret that she just returned to Tobesk to deal with a lot of things, and this was originally a team task, and it was not convenient for Shad to show up.

"But if you have trouble, you can find me at the security company. I will be there for a while."

"It doesn't matter, the credits are already complete, these are actually not important."

Xia De shook his head and said, and then asked:

"Luvia, do you want to go and see these things with me?"

Xia De asked the female fortune teller again. The latter thought about it and shook her head regretfully:

"Sorry, the Great City Players Rhodes Card Tournament will start next month. This is the first time in the past fifty years that an event of this scale will be held in Tobesk, so I can't ask for leave recently."

"Big City Players Rhodes Card Competition" is a worldwide Rhodes card game held every three years and only held in big cities in the Old World. At that time, players from all over the world will gather to work hard for prize money and special cards for winners.

"It's okay. I'm also a detective after all. It's okay to entrust someone to deal with it. If there is a problem, I will ask you for help."

Although it is a pity, today I really have to act alone. Everyone has something to do, and everyone has their own career and life.

"Iluna provided three commissions, are you going to try to solve them all? So which one should you start with?"

The female fortune teller asked again.

"Xia De, I recommend you to check out the haunted empty house first, which is the closest to here. Then there is the mysterious person who appears on the street at noon every day. This is the only commission I brought here, the only one not issued by the church. Task."

Iruna suggested that she really regrets not being able to go with her.

Xia De picked up the paper and glanced at it again. The three investigation missions were rich in variety, except for the two mentioned by Iluna, the last one was actually to investigate a merchant selling spices in the north of the city. The spices he sells have a very good sleep aid effect, but after analyzing the spices, they are completely ordinary items. The church suspects that he has a very small possibility. He is a ring warlock who is proficient in potions and alchemy, so there is a task.

Of course, the probability is very small, and the other party has no intention of running away, so this task will be backlogged until next week.

"Well, I will conduct investigations in this order. Iluna, tomorrow I will send you the investigation records of the three things."

Xia De raised his head and said.

"Then we will divide the entrustment fee into 19, and you will get 9 and I will get 1. It means that I have introduced these tasks to you as a broker."

The young girl is very familiar with handling this kind of thing. Although the relationship between the two parties is very good, it will make the relationship better after a clear account. Xia De appreciates her approach. x

"In addition, we have to investigate the matter of the second candidate."

Luvia also said, she pointed in the direction of Cold Water Harbor:

"Iluna, I hope that you can collect as much progress as possible about the Coldwater Harbor incident through the church. Now you are the only one chosen, and if you think about it, the Church of the Sun will not hide information about the other chosen ones from you. "

"No problem, after returning from the Holy See, my identity is different."

The seventeen-year-old girl smiled happily.

The two girls were about to leave together, and Xia De also put on his clothes and prepared to go out. He still had a lot of things to deal with this Friday.

Since he has to run around in the city, besides those investigation tasks, he also has to go to MI6 strongholds, deal with tax issues, go to the gas company and steam company to inquire about the price of installing pipelines, and go to the steam bird daily to get the next month's report Bill the advertising fee.

"Xia De, can I take your cat away? Anyway, you plan to keep it at home, why don't you let me take it. You have been to our place, and I think Mia will become friends with our cat."

Before leaving, Iluna suggested. Luvia smiled and stood aside, already knowing the result, while Xia De looked back at the orange cat who was standing on the sofa, ready to send him downstairs, and then quietly enjoyed the happiness of being alone at home:

"If you can get its consent, I have no problem."

he said with a smile.

"Oh, Mia, come here."

So the girl in the skirt clapped her hands at the small orange cat. The latter looked at her suspiciously with its big eyes, then raised its front paws to rub against his face, and did nothing else.

"Iluna, I think this should mean rejection."

No matter how Iluna feels, at least Luvia is in a good mood at the moment.

The three separated downstairs, Xia De took the information given by Iluna, and walked for 20 minutes to No. 6 Squirrel Alley.

Squirrel Alley is an ordinary alley in the eastern part of Tobesk City. Most of the people who rent here are engaged in relatively decent jobs such as clerks, accountants, and copyists nearby. It takes too much physical labor to feed a family.

No. 6 Squirrel Alley is a common rental apartment in the city ~lightnovelpub.net~ with a total of three floors. The landlord’s family lives on the first floor, the second floor is rented to a family of small employees working in the logistics department of the city hall, and the third floor belongs to a person who came to Tobesk from his hometown and studied at the local Tobesk Secondary Mechanical College student.

A month ago, the resident of the third floor, Salhak, passed away unfortunately, and then there were reports of ghosts. Before the task was assigned to Iluna's team, the church had sent ordinary priests to look at the magical items in hand, and found no traces of evil spirits, and there was no definite evidence of the so-called "haunting" from beginning to end, let alone People get hurt.

The landlord's family and the residents on the second floor have moved out now, so Blackstone Security Company believes that this task is not of high importance.

Because it is close to the city center, the alley itself is fairly clean. It's just that the road is a bit narrow, probably not enough for a carriage to pass by. After entering the alley, Xia De stepped on the gravel on the ground, looking at the rusted house numbers one by one.

Most of the walls on both sides are masonry walls, and steam pipes covered with heat insulation are attached to the walls, but most of the rivets fixing the pipes are rusty. After passing through a stone arch connecting the buildings on both sides of the alley, he saw the locked door.

Tilting his head to look at the house, the windows on both sides were sealed by wooden boards, but the letter box hanging on the wall was actually empty, and it seemed that someone had come back to pick up things recently. div
