"Your teacher...really thinks highly of me. 0~0,Xiao+tax·蛧. -追!蕞\Xin~Zhang~Jie,"
Edward scratched his head. He had just "beat up" the noobs in the Harry Potter world, and now he wanted to fight a demigod? Isn't the gap too big?
"The teacher said that if it's just a delay, it shouldn't be a big problem."
Edward asked in confusion, "I don't know if your teacher has mentioned this before. She said that I am full of disasters, so she hopes you can stay away from me. If that's the case, why didn't she help me this time, but came to me instead?"
Sharon's expression became slightly strange:
"So that's how it is. No wonder the evil god S'ea targeted you after the teacher helped you last time."
"???"
Shit, it's such a big pot, and you just put it on me without blinking an eye?
After all this time, you still blame me.
Hiss—it seems so. In the original book, they didn't seem to encounter the demigod of the Rose School, and this time he was coming for me.
Is this tower card really so evil?
However, Audrey, who was closest to me, didn't seem to be affected at all.
A kid who was eating ice cream at home said: Who do you think is helping you carry the burden?
Chapter 275 Audrey is attacked
Edward sighed, "Okay, so when the time comes, what am I going to do?"
"While we fight, you will just watch. Once the demigod appears, you will be needed to lead him away."
Maric said at this time: "In addition to the materials you asked for, the reward is that after the teacher gets rid of Sua, he can also help you once more."
"OK."
Edward had witnessed the strength of another demigod of the Rose School, Jax, during Sequence 7. At that time, he had only consumed five abilities and almost escaped with the help of luck. But now, not only can he consume 10 abilities, but he can also record more than 20. It shouldn't be a problem for him to simply delay time and run away.
"Well, I'm just afraid that he will suddenly take out some powerful sealing item and kill me in an instant."
Thinking of this, he asked, "Do you know what kind of sealed object that demigod has?"
Sharon said: "It seems to be a glove that can steal other people's abilities and things. \鸿*特·暁+税`茫+ !免+費*跃`独`"
The seal of the thief's path?
This is a very troublesome thing. Should I find a few big guys I know and record some life-saving skills so that it would be more reliable?
Bernadette's [The Emperor's New Clothes] was very useful last time, and... can Klein's paper man substitute also be used?
It seems that it is not possible. After all, the ability recorded by the recorder is not as good as one's own ability. It takes time to release it. And passive abilities like the paper man substitute must be released immediately to be effective. It seems that it is not very useful after recording it. (This is based on the performance of the recorder releasing his ability in the original work as a guess)
"When will we act?"
"It's not confirmed yet, but we will let you know the time on the morning of the operation."
"OK."
At this point, both parties fell silent at the same time, especially Maric, who looked like he was about to see him off.
Edward was speechless. Is it necessary to be so afraid of me?
He took out a tin box from his leather bag: "Do you need this, Mr. Maric?"
As soon as he opened the box, Maric's expression changed. "The Beyonder characteristic of the wraith?"
"Yes, this is the extraordinary characteristic that emerged after the death of Blood Admiral Senior. You should know him, right?"
Maric looked at Edward in shock: "You... are the moody German?"
Edward did not comment. "How about it, Mr. Maric, are you interested?"
He stared at the Beyonder Feature for a long time and shook his head: "I... can't afford it."
Sharon said softly, "Keep it for us first. I'll think of a way."
"OK."
Edward put the box away again under Maric's reluctant gaze. "The price of Sequence 5 Beyonder characteristics fluctuates greatly, ranging from 5,000 to 10,000 gold pounds. Since we are friends, I will charge 6,000 gold pounds. Is that fair?"
They both nodded at the same time.
At Sequence 5, many things can no longer be bought with money, so the premium is often very high. \卡,卡-小¨税′涓+ `已^发布_发布?罪′薪`璋!接-
"Well, there is also this thing. Miss Sharon can also take a look and see if it is useful to you."
Edward stood up and took out a coffin from his palm-sized leather bag - yes, it was the mummy that the five old predecessors had dug up from somewhere.
A Sequence 5 Wraith's promotion to a puppet requires a mummy. Although it is not known whether it is used as material or as a ritual, it is definitely indispensable.
In the original novel, Sharon and Klein, under the care of several powerful men, teamed up to take away a very precious mummy, after which Sharon was promoted to demigod.
But the mummy was a high-sequence warrior when he was alive, so Edward was not sure whether this thing he brought back from the Harry Potter world would be useful.
However, as Sharon's expression changed significantly, Edward was sure: this thing works!
Thank God, all the hard work of those five seniors has now at least been valuable for one thing. I must thank them when I go back next time.
Sharon stroked the coffin with her pale fingers and murmured, "The one in the coffin... was a powerful person in his lifetime. This should be enough to support me in my promotion to demigod."
Was he a strong man during his lifetime?
How powerful would the strong people in the Harry Potter world be? He couldn't help but think of Ariana and the Grim Reaper again.
However, he quickly shook off these distracting thoughts and said with a smile: "Then how much do you think this thing is worth?"
"…"
Sharon was silent for a few seconds. "Its value cannot be measured in gold pounds. I... need to ask the teacher."
"No problem." Edward was in a good mood. Hey, Miss Coconut Tree, aren't you going to stay away from me? In this situation, we will only tie each other tighter and tighter, right?
"Would you like me to advance it to you now? If you are promoted to demigod, you should be able to deal with this crisis easily."
"My wraith potion has not been fully digested yet."
"Well, that's a shame."
Edward put the coffin back into the leather bag and said, "Okay, I'll go back and wait for your news, all kinds of news."
He waved and walked out of the chess and card room: "See you later."
...
Backlund, mental hospital.
By the time Audrey finished "comforting" the mentally ill patients, it was already dark.
Today's experience made her realize what a person with a real mental problem is like - not the psychological problems of those children in Hogwarts during adolescence, nor the madness caused by being tortured by Dementors in Azkaban.
Rather, these people's values and the world they see are completely different from those of ordinary people. Audrey was almost dragged into their spiritual therapy several times.
Because from the perspective of these patients, they are healthy, and only those who come from outside are truly sick.
Especially what some of the patients said made Audrey feel: It made so much sense. How could this come from the mouth of a mentally ill person?
When a patient was asked how he viewed the outside world, his answer was: "When people are sick, they take medicine. Why does the world eat people when it is sick?"
When asked how he viewed death, one patient replied: "I am not afraid of death because I have relatives in both worlds waiting for me to reunite."
When Audrey was about to leave the mental hospital, a patient looked at her and shook his head regretfully: "Oh, another one has gone in."
She was in a daze for a while before she realized that the other party meant that the mental hospital was outside.
So an afternoon passed and Audrey became depressed.
Lilith was very happy throughout the whole process because this was the first place where she could talk to many people freely. Anyway, even if those mentally ill people told the doctor that cats could talk, no one would believe it.
Susie would occasionally communicate with some patients, use her telepathic ability to read their thoughts, and then try to provide psychotherapy - she was still stuck at the Sequence 8 telepathic reader because she had not gathered all the materials, so she was acting in advance.
Sitting in the carriage on the way back, Audrey rested her chin on her hand and looked out the window at the passers-by outside. Anne, the maid who had been with her for half a day, was dozing off.
"Oh, I don't want to go to a mental hospital anymore."
Audrey sighed softly as her mood gradually recovered.
Susie glanced at Anne and whispered, "Audrey, you are just too kind. You are easily drawn into other people's emotions, which is why you are affected. As extraordinary people in the audience path, we should try our best to stand from the perspective of a bystander. We are just spectators, not actors."
Audrey looked over and said, "I understand."
"and you..."
"But I soon discovered that once I got used to looking at things from a bystander's perspective, I would become more and more rational, until I even lost my ability to empathize," she said seriously. "I don't want to become like this."
Susie was stunned.
She continued, "So, when I discovered this problem, I was actually confused. Should I become a bystander in order to play a role and be promoted to a higher sequence, or should I delay promotion in order to maintain my relationship?"
"Then Edward told me something that suddenly made me realize it."
Audrey pursed her lips and smiled. "You stand on the bridge and enjoy the scenery, while the people enjoying the scenery are watching you from upstairs. When you observe others as an audience, you are actually an actor in the eyes of other 'audiences', so the distinction between 'audience' and 'actor' shouldn't be so obvious."
Susie thought thoughtfully: "Well, this is indeed an interpretation."
Crunch.
At this time, a crisp chewing sound was heard. It was Lilith chewing her treasured dried mouse happily.
Feeling the gazes of Audrey and Susie, she raised her head in confusion and muttered, "Why are you suddenly looking at Miss Lilith? I don't understand what you are talking about."
The man and the dog looked at each other and smiled. I really envy Lilith.
Hiss~
Just then, a frightened horse neigh was heard.
The carriage stopped instantly, and the people, cats and dogs in the carriage fell forward at the same time due to inertia. Susie immediately stopped Audrey and let her fall on her soft body. Anne woke up from her sleep: "What's wrong?!"
Bang!
At this moment, something heavy seemed to fall from the roof of the car, making a loud noise. Then, the huge inertia pulled them back again, and the horse suddenly accelerated and galloped.
"Pete! What's wrong!"
When the carriage stabilized, Anne climbed to the front with difficulty, calling the coachman's name while pulling open the curtains and glass. The next second, Anne screamed:
