Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 73 Preparation for Debut (First Order Request)

Rollin knew that Pales was a smart man. Smart people would think more and also know when to think and when not to think.

As for the character of "Rollin Zoroast", as someone who has just joined the Fun Club, he naturally doesn't know these hidden secrets, but he is loyal to the Zoroast family, so he chooses to tell the truth about these things. This can be a hint, or it may not be.

Pales showed no surprise, but simply said with a smile, "It seems that your cooperation with Bethel is going smoothly."

Luo Lin naturally would not deny it, he just smiled and nodded.

Leonard next to him couldn't stand it anymore and couldn't help but complain: "Aren't you tired of talking like this?"

Although he was nicknamed one of the three idiots of the sun, moon and stars, Leonard's brain was actually not stupid, he was just too lazy to use it. At this moment, of course, he could roughly hear that the two people in front of him seemed to have hidden meanings in every word they said.

Rowling then looked at Leonard and shook his head. He clearly said nothing, yet it seemed as if he had said everything.

Pales said with a smile, "Please be considerate of him. After all, his brain has been out of use for a long time, so it's probably a little rusty."

Luo Lin smiled and said, "That's right."

Leonard's face turned red all of a sudden, obviously he was angry. He looked at the two guys in front of him and said "you guys" for a long time but couldn't explain what was going on.

Luo Lin was in a good mood after teasing the wolf. He immediately looked at Leonard and reminded him, "Leonard, I know you still have concerns about the old man, but my personal advice is that no matter what, it is best to improve your sequence as soon as possible in this era."

"The end of the world is coming, and the world will become increasingly chaotic. If you still want to protect yourself and those around you in this chaos, become stronger as soon as possible!"

……

When Leonard finally joined a shell organization, on the other side, Backlund—

Xio and Fors were struggling.

Not long ago, they received a commission from Miss Audrey to investigate the whereabouts of Hurricane Vice Admiral Qilingos.

This wouldn't have been a big deal, but the crux of the matter was that not long ago, Xio had divined that his life might be in danger due to matters related to the ocean and money, and investigating Hurricane Vice Admiral Qilingos undoubtedly coincided with the divination.

Furthermore, Jack seemed to have received information about Vice Admiral Hurricane Qilingos's infiltration into Backlund, and wrote a letter specifically to remind them of this matter.

In this situation, Xio and Fors should have easily given up the commission, but the price offered by the client, Miss Audrey, was very attractive. This made Xio and Fors, who were short of money, quite tempted and reluctant to give up the commission.

"Xiu, why don't we give up? After all, your life might really be in danger." Fors clearly still felt that her friend's safety was more important, and subconsciously looked at her friend who was involved.

"But it's just a possibility..." Xio's eyes flashed with confusion and hesitation. Finally, as if she had made up her mind, she looked at Fors and said, "Fors, I have decided to continue with this commission, but I may need your help."

……

"Sure enough, even with my warning, Xio and Fors still chose to investigate Hurricane Vice Admiral Qilingos. After all, the commission fee was really generous for them. Fortunately, they were able to escape unscathed in the end." A few days later, Rowling looked at the intelligence sent from Backlund and shook his head.

In the intelligence, Xio and Fors chose to investigate Hurricane Vice Admiral Qilingos. This time, they were obviously more cautious than in the original novel, but Hurricane Vice Admiral Qilingos was no pushover either. He still found out the whereabouts of this pair of insignificant people. Fortunately, with Fors's stone bracelet, the two escaped safely.

"At this point, Jack, having learned that his friend was in danger, could naturally inform Lucifer and ask for his help."

Luo Lin stretched, looked at the moonlight outside the window and smiled.

In two days, "Lucifer" will officially perform on stage and give a certain Mr. Fool a little surprise.

……

Klein has been in a good mood recently.

He finally passed the assessment from the Nighthawks headquarters and was promoted to Sequence 8. Old Mr. Neil also performed a mysterious ritual with the help of Mr. Sword of the Goddess. After that, as long as he stopped actively listening to the whispers from the Hidden Sage, he would basically not lose control again.

During this period, Klein also took advantage of the Holy Symbol of the Sun and successfully crafted a high-level Sun Path spell. He held two Tarot meetings and took advantage of Russell's tricks, gaining some new knowledge. Apart from the many coincidences around him, everything went smoothly.

In this situation, one night, Klein, who was discussing with his brother and sister about watching the performance of "The Return of the Count", suddenly heard a prayer from Miss Justice.

Klein was naturally puzzled as to why Miss Justice was praying at this time. After Upper Gray Mist listened to the prayer, he realized something serious had happened. Hurricane Vice Admiral Qilingos, whom Mr. Hanged Man was pursuing, had apparently changed his appearance and appeared at the aristocratic ball Miss Justice was attending. It was conceivable that the other party was definitely up to something big, and it would definitely not be a good thing.

After all, this is a pirate general who kills without blinking an eye.

Klein immediately responded to Justice Audrey and calmed her down. He then intercepted the contents of Justice Audrey's prayer and passed it to Mr. Hanged Man.

After doing all this, Klein did not rush to leave the gray fog immediately. Instead, he thought for a few seconds and then passed the content of Justice Audrey's prayer to Rowling.

Klein remembered that at the last Tarot meeting, Jack had mentioned that his friend was in danger due to Hurricane Admiral Qilingos, so he wrote a letter to the teacher for help. Although Klein didn't think Lucifer liked him, this matter concerned many people after all, so Klein decided to seek as much help as possible to prevent the tragedy from happening.

So after the gray fog dissipated, Klein quickly wrote a letter to Mr. Azik. After sending it, he sighed and muttered to himself, "This is all I can do. I hope the situation doesn't get out of control..."

……

At the same time, after reading the message from Mr. Fool, Rowling couldn't help but curl his lips.

Although there was the foreshadowing before, even without Mr. Fool's move, Lucifer's appearance in this incident would not seem abrupt, but now with Mr. Fool's "reminder", everything is obviously more logical.

Including the little surprise Lucifer has prepared for a certain fool.

"Klein, you're indeed my good friend!" Rowling said with emotion. After confirming that Mr. Fool wasn't staring at him, he quickly changed his appearance and used his travel ability to arrive in Backlund, waiting for the next actor in the show to appear.
