Chapter 165 Adjustment, the eve

For the adjustment of thirty tons of moonshine, it took them all night.

A series of symbols are first written on the wooden board of the barrel one by one, and then wiped off.

The seemingly meaningless behavior has been "adjusted" on the surface, the past experience of this batch of goods.

In addition, a very small amount of woad and cascara juice is added to the wine. In the system used by Linus, they represent "blooming", which can play a subtle role in disturbing the ceremony, so that the traces of those adjustments no longer exist. obvious.

If Linus continues to use Forecast on this shipment, the warehouse location he gets will be where the trap is located.

——In another uninhabited farm in the southern suburbs of Stade.

When forging this coordinate, Ji Lian hesitated a little:
"I think you should know that Linus is a Transcendent who directly belongs to the cult." She said:
"Although Elena said that he is not good at force. But at least he is at the level of Chi Erxing. And as a person who has undergone systematic training, his ability is by no means comparable to those underground wizards."

Even if the trap is set in advance, with Ke Lin's current strength, can he really compete with the opponent?

After thinking for a moment, Colin smiled:
"It's not necessary for me to end it myself, because there are others who want him to die."

He did have some hesitation, but it wasn't because of lack of confidence in his strength.

I have never met that Linus, but I have been fighting for more than ten days, and now, I am still planning to take his life.

Maybe I'm sorry, but who made us cat and mouse?

Since neither side is willing to compromise, then I can only hope that I am not the one who died.

…………

A certain speakeasy in the old city, only two blocks away from my uncle's mansion.

On the simple table, there are several cowhide bags lined up, the handles are drooping, and the buttons on the top of the bags have not been buttoned.Through the half-closed opening, a large stack of cash can be seen inside.

Colin was wearing a thin shirt, sitting in front of a mechanical typewriter, typing on the case with only one hand.The paper pans and wraps in a rattling sound.

Less than half a minute later, he removed the letter, shook it straight, and carefully dried the ink on it.

Check the content again, the general content is very simple:
Linus will travel to some remote address within five to six days.

Colin folded the letter, put it in the leather bag, fastened the buttons one by one, and put on the mask.

He got up and walked to the door, opened the door, and clapped his hands.

Several people who were resting outside the door entered the room and took away the leather bags.After leaving the speakeasy, the two of them got into the car in groups and headed towards various banks.

Presumably, before the sun sets, that letter will be handed over to X, who is behind the scenes.

Linus is the common enemy of "he" and Colin.

Because the behind-the-scenes X once told Goldie to tell himself: destroy Linus.

And now, Colin sent him a key clue.It's just that I don't know if X, the mastermind who controls dozens of underground wizards, can seize the opportunity.

…………

Compared with the bloody storm in early October, the next few days seemed quite peaceful.

Colin is temporarily free until Linus's second round of predictions comes to fruition.In the past few days, in order to find available onshore currents, he has been practicing tracking currents all the time.

But now, Ke Lin intends to break through the upper limit again, thus gradually raising the number of simultaneous tracking marks to [-], expanding the boundaries of his consciousness little by little.

During this process, his intentions always shine on more than two thousand marks in the distance, as blazing as a torch, and as fine as an underwater undercurrent.Regardless of strength and operational precision, there has been a jump again.

Now the life in his consciousness is abundant, the total amount has not increased, but it can already be divided into more than one hundred thousand parts.In the imaging results, their particles have been indistinguishable.

It looked like a hazy mist, or a flowing nebula, but Colin could still clearly sense and manipulate every part of it, as if he had a hundred thousand fingers at the same time, intending to touch, this puffy The fog will stop abruptly.

Recently, he is controlling the consciousness not to spread outwards, so as not to further expand the cracks in the shell of the heart, or to increase the burden of the ether of the human body.

Maybe the Shuttle Demon is used too frequently these days, and after the ether is overloaded, the backlash caused by the rejection of the spirit element becomes more and more intense.

After all, the human body was not created to carry spiritual essence.

Dispelling the spiritual essence overflowing into the material body began to become a daily homework for him.The body resists them instinctively, often producing dull pain without warning, and if they are allowed to linger, they will cause permanent damage to the organs.

Ke Lin put aside the used net salt, and the ether of the net salt had already absorbed the spiritual essence that had been dispelled from his body.

Judging from the situation of Lingsu rejection, it will probably be some time before the death of Ji Lian's crystal disease.

Before that, I should have completed the cracking ceremony on the winter solstice and opened the seal on the heart shell.

Everything is in order and moving in a good direction.Colin looked at the dark street from his small attic, thinking casually.

Then, Colin suddenly realized what he had forgotten.

He has launched all the intelligence networks in his hands to search for the last agent of the northern organization, but there is still no news yet.

Has this man escaped from the Stade?
…………

"Look, almost a week has passed, and I haven't been infected yet."

It was another early morning, after measuring her body temperature with mercury and doing a series of checks, Elena almost trotted back to the room, shaking Ji Lian who was still a little confused and said:

"I'd say it's not contagious."

As if Ji Lian hadn't fully woken up yet, she rubbed her eyes:

"What about the other guinea pigs?"

"None of them were abnormal, and the pathogen didn't survive at all."

Ji Lian put down her hand slowly, her eyes were a little dull, and she didn't speak for a while.

Elena kept a look of surprise on her face, staring closely into her eyes.

The room suddenly fell silent.

"Really?" Ji Lian asked in a low voice with some uncertainty.

"real."

Ji Lian tightly grasped the sleeve of Elena's nightdress, even with her astute mind, she couldn't understand the meaning behind this fact for a moment.

"Today, I will confirm your matter with the teacher."

Elena spoke, suddenly feeling a little embarrassed:
"Actually, I mentioned you to him in Danaro, and the teacher is also curious about you. I asked about you a few days ago."

"Why don't we make an appointment to visit the teacher's house?"

"Eh?"

Ji Lian recovered from her countless thoughts before she noticed what Elena was saying.

"Oh... yes."

"It just so happens that the recent progress is good, and we will take half a day off on Sunday."

Elena snapped her fingers and said, her expression didn't change much, but she couldn't hide the joy in her tone.

"It happens to be tomorrow, in the evening, okay? After I get off work, I will go to the teacher's house to cook a meal first, and then I will pick you up..."

According to Ji Lian and Ke Lin's calculations, Linus will get the wrong warehouse location in the next day or two.

"Then, I proposed to him to write a letter of introduction for you, asking you to go to Danaro and rejoin the religious order."

The curly black hair spread softly on her chest, Elena said with sparkling eyes:
"Only people in the principality and holy province can understand your value...you will definitely get the best treatment."
