Mystery: Big Alarm Clock Ghroth Path

Chapter 57 The Weird Lady

Sailors feared the sirens primarily because of the strange song these creatures sang.

The song contained a magical power that could affect the human spirit, causing people on the ship to lose their minds, become crazy, or even jump off the ship and become their food.

Since most sirens are raised by the Church of Evernight, wild sirens mainly live in the depths of the Sonia Sea and are not very common.

But even so, ships at sea will try their best to avoid routes where sirens may appear.

Alger asked himself, based on his experience, if he was really determined to find the Siren, he should be able to find it.

However, considering the dangers of the Sirens, and the recent poor weather on the route from the Gargas Islands to the depths of the Sonia Sea, this decision would likely cause fear among his Low-Sequence Beyonders, not to mention the ordinary crew members.

Not to mention, he had no sailing plans there during this time.

To put it another way, even if he really found the sirens, how could he obtain their tears?
Do I have to jump into the sea, catch a mermaid and beat her until she cries?
Even Alger, who was an excellent swimmer, didn't dare to do this lightly, because sirens often moved in groups, and who knew how many of their kind would suddenly emerge from beneath the water.
No matter how strong you are, you cannot defeat a group of marine creatures with strange powers, so it is obviously unrealistic to capture the mermaid directly.

"Another option is to directly offer a bounty to the Beyonder community at sea... but that way, you won't be able to do it without at least 500 gold pounds."

Alger suddenly felt a pang of pain. He had just successfully earned 1000 gold pounds by sharing knowledge about the secret organization with Miss Justice. However, before he even got the money, he suddenly had to pay a large expense.

But no matter what, he must help Mr. Wheel of Fortune get what he wants.

This is not only due to the self-awareness of the members of the Tarot Club, but more importantly, the knowledge shared by this mysterious gentleman is so valuable that it cannot be compared with a few hundred pounds.

As long as you have an information gap higher than most people and can maintain the speed of promotion, there will be inexhaustible benefits.

So in the end, Alger still made a profit.

"Mr. Wheel of Fortune, how much of each of the two extraordinary materials you just mentioned do you need?"

To be on the safe side, he also asked about the quantity of the sap of the Glorious Contract Spirit Tree, because there was no guarantee that he would be lucky enough to come across it in stock.

"2 drops of Siren Songster's Tears, 100 ml of Glorious Spirit Tree Juice."

In the gray fog, the Wheel of Fortune answered.

"I think I have a chance to get one of them. Just wait for my news." Alger agreed.

"Waiting for good news, thank you for your trouble."

Roger laughed. He believed in Alger's ability to get things done.

It’s not just because of the other party’s identity as a “navigator”, more importantly, this man was nicknamed the Tarot Club’s Political Commissar by netizens in his previous life!

"Of course, if you, Miss Justice, have information on these two materials, I'm willing to pay a corresponding fee."

Roger also did not forget to say a few words to Audrey, the wealthy young woman sitting across from the long bronze table.

"Ah, all right, Mr. 'Wheel of Fortune'."

Audrey's voice, like a silver bell, came from the gray fog.

At the head of the long bronze table, Klein the Fool frowned as he heard the conversation between the three Major Arcana cards.

"Didn't Meters just purchase extraordinary materials? Is he going to be promoted again?"

Klein was secretly shocked. Even with the help of "acting method", it shouldn't be so fast!

"Could it be that he bought it for Bandit... No, is it a commission from the Aurora Society?"

His mind was full of thoughts, but he couldn't find the answer.

"This guy has so many secrets..." Klein couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

"By the way, Mr. Wheel of Fortune, I have made a new discovery regarding your last commission."

Seeing that the two gentlemen, "Wheel of Fortune" and "The Hanged Man", had reached a deal, Audrey took the initiative to speak.

"Please say."

Roger looked at Miss Justice with interest.

"Last week, at a large ball in Backlund, I met a commoner who had just had a flash marriage with a member of the House of Commons a month ago, and we chatted.

"That lady was extremely beautiful. She claimed to be from a small town near the Minerminsk Mountains in the northwest... Unfortunately, there was a famous hunting ground there. One of my brothers had been there several times, so I also knew a lot about the local conditions."

Roger nodded. "You doubt she's from there?"

He caught the word "unfortunate" in Audrey's words.

"Yes, I had no suspicion at first, but when I mentioned the hunting grounds and the local flora and fauna, the lady had an obvious abnormal reaction.

"Although she hid it well, I still discovered her abnormality through the ability of 'audience'... Mr. 'Wheel of Fortune', could she be a witch?"

Audrey had just finished speaking when she heard applause coming from the gray fog.

The applause came from the Wheel of Fortune. The mysterious gentleman smiled and praised:
"Ms. Justice, I wonder if anyone has ever told you that you have a talent for detective work."

Audrey was delighted:
"Thank you for the compliment."

Growing up in an aristocratic family, she had always longed for the life of a detective and adventurer, so she couldn't help feeling a little proud when Roger praised her like that.

In fact, Roger's praise was truly from the heart.

He did mention that the "witch" potion could change a person's gender, but he had not expected that Audrey would be able to draw inferences from this information and explore the possibility that a person was a witch based on her past.

“As to whether the lady you just mentioned is a witch, I cannot give you an accurate answer.

"I can only say that fabricating past life experiences and having extraordinary beauty are very consistent with the characteristics of a 'witch'."

Roger leaned forward, his hands folded under his chin, a smile evident in his voice:
"It seems that this lady has indeed brought great pleasure to the congressman."

Hearing this word, Audrey's face immediately turned red.

Can you say such explicit words to a single girl casually?
Just as Audrey was thinking about how to respond, Roger wisely intervened:

"'Joy' is the name of the Sequence 6 potion of the 'Witch' pathway."

"Joy... is this a requirement of the role-playing method?"

Miss Justice muttered to herself, while The Fool and The Hanged Man beside her also understood something.

Soon, Audrey came to her senses and said to Roger:
"Mr. Wheel of Fortune, after what you just said, I've thought of two more people who might be witches."

"besides?"

Roger frowned slightly when he heard this.

　I'm going to have dinner with someone today, so I'll update the first chapter early, and there will be another chapter later.
