"And what happened to that Sister Matilda?"

Xia De sat on the sofa and continued to ask curiously, the blind lady shook her head slightly:

"They have been communicating with each other since then. Aunt Matilda even thought about waiting until she was 45 years old to unload her burden and go to Tobesk...About 15 years ago, she died of a terrible accident. And died."

Ms. Michelle had a sad expression on her face, and Xia De was also at a loss for words.

"Yesterday, I saw Mr. Rat Augustus, whom I hadn't seen for more than 20 years, and learned that he has become Zarath's Ring Warlock."

"It's Byrons, you don't have to test me."

Xia De interrupted, Ms. Michelle nodded:

"I see. He has become a student of chemistry at St. Byrence. I really feel sorry for them, if it had been earlier... I told Priest Augustus that Sister Matilda was buried After he left our place, he should have gone directly to the cemetery."

Xia De sighed:

"It turned out to be like this. He never talked about his past with us friends. It's like this. There is clear evidence that Priest Augustus had an accident and is very likely to die soon. So , I would like to know whether the divination you did yesterday pointed to other clues."

"Sorry, although I have certain divination abilities, all I can see in him is death."

"Speaking of which, you are already the second fortune teller who has divined the meaning of 'death' to a priest."

Xia De said, Sister Matilda showed a slightly surprised expression:

"Doesn't that mean, that gentleman..."

"We friends can only do our best to save him."

Xia De got up to leave, he didn't have so much time to waste. Before the effect of [Blood Echo] fades, the final missing place of Priest Augustus must be found.

"Please wait a moment, Mr. Watson. Although I can't provide you with direct help, if you need anything, you can come here to find me at any time. In addition, I want to do a divination for you."

"Divination?"

"Yes, our divination method is different from ordinary divination. We don't need any auxiliary tools, but directly use our eyes to capture spirituality."

She motioned for Xia De to sit down again, then raised her hand to untie the cloth strips wrapped around her eyes. Only then did Xia De understand that the other party was not blind at all, but blindfolded deliberately, which was a way of practice.

"Spiritual Order?"

He suddenly said softly, Ms. Michelle's hand stopped, and she kept raising her hand to look at Shad. Of course, because the cloth strips are not completely followed, this cannot actually be counted as "watching".

"You know us?"

Although the Spiritual Order is not a particularly secretive organization, it is not easy to guess it at once.

"I'm a friend of the priest in Tobesk. I saw your people in the city during Tobesk's 'Darkness Fall' incident some time ago."

"Yes, Sister Divelin, she did lead the team there herself."

Ms. Michelle nodded, lowered her head and completely untied the strip of cloth.

Seeing that she was about to look up at him, Xia De immediately sat up straight. Ms. Michelle raised her head and opened her eyes. I don't know if it was a psychological factor. Xia De felt that her pair of brown eyes were very beautiful.

"oh!"

Just taking a look at Xia De, the nun from the spiritual practice group let out a pained cry, covered her eyes and lowered her head.

"Sorry, what's wrong?"

Shad was a little overwhelmed, but Ms. Michelle just waved her hand so that he didn't have to panic:

"Mr. Watson, the moonlight on your body is really dazzling. It is so shining, so pure, and so dazzling. I shouldn't be so bold to peep at you easily. I think, the matter of the Augustus priests is up to you. It's probably okay."

"Are you really okay? I have a potion here that can treat eyes. Do you want to try it?"

Xia De took out the bright yellow eye drops prescribed by the ophthalmologist that he hadn't used up in [Dark Field], but Ms. Michelle covered her eyes and politely refused. Their ring warlock organization with special eye training methods will not lack potions to treat eye diseases.

Knowing that Xia De was in a hurry, Ms. Michelle called another middle-aged nun from the "House of the Blind" to send Xia De downstairs. This middle-aged nun is a ring magician with three or four rings. She was very surprised to see Ms. Michelle's state, but she didn't blame Xia De for it.

Xia De almost understood what this so-called "House of the Blind" was. It should be a local stronghold of the "Spiritual Order", and that Ms. Michelle was the leader of the stronghold. Therefore, before leaving, he kindly told Ms. Michelle that the disappearance of Priest Augustus would soon attract the attention of the church and college.

Xia De can check here, and the church and college should also have a way to check here, so they need to prepare in advance.

The outsiders are actually very interested in this organization, but the matter of the Augustus priests is the most important thing now. After bidding farewell to the House of the Blind, he left through the back door and followed the track of Priest Augustus.

The priest first went to a flower shop at the entrance of the alley to buy flowers. Xia De spent 5 pence, and then found out from the flower shop that it was a bouquet for a friend.

Afterwards, the priest boarded the carriage again. Shad, who already knew the priest's destination, didn't use his legs to track him this time. He also boarded a carriage, and then headed for the public cemetery in Fort Midhill.

The big cities of De La Rion have public cemeteries planned by the city hall. This is also to facilitate the municipal planning of the rapidly expanding city in the steam age and prevent the dead from occupying the land of the living.

For Fort Midhill, the city can only expand to the northern plains, and it is basically impossible to expand to the southwest of the West Carl Mountain~lightnovelpub.net~ Therefore, the public cemetery in Fort Midhill is in The southwest direction of the city is actually the foot of the Sikar Mountain.

Strictly speaking, it is considered a mountain range. But because the cemetery is built on the mountain, not only the greening conditions are excellent, but there are even canals dug openly through the cemetery, so the conditions of the cemetery here seem to be better than those in Tobesk.

"If I don't become a **** in the end, and I die like a mortal, maybe it's not bad to be buried here."

Xia De was thinking about messy things.

Somehow, when the carriage brought Xia De to the gate of the cemetery, a thin layer of mist rose in the mountains and forests. Xikar Mountain was already tall, but when Xia De looked up, he saw that the layer of white mist had already covered the cemetery at the foot of the mountain from the mountainside.

This is not a haze caused by the steam industry, but a naturally formed fog. But when Xia De went down the mountain at noon, everything was normal in the mountains and forests.

"You are probably a foreigner."

The driver who was giving Xia De some money saw Xia De looking at the mountains in surprise, so he explained with a smile:

"Every autumn, this kind of dense mountain fog will always appear on Mount Xical from time to time. It may happen at night, morning, day, and evening, and the duration is uncertain. People who live in this city know this kind of fog. The thing is, adults always like to use the ghosts in the white mist of Mount Xical to frighten disobedient children."

Talking to Shad about local stories, the driver handed Shad the 7p he found, but Shad just took a 1p coin, waved goodbye to each other, and turned to look at the cemetery in the mist:

"If I remember correctly, after using [Long Hair of the Unlucky], the negative effect of easily provoking evil spirits is still on me..."
