The Bizarre Adventure of Pirates

But just as he was about to continue fooling the boy who accidentally came to the mysterious space, a box in the corner submerged in the gray fog suddenly made a sound, interrupting his thoughts.

Klein panicked.

Is it the spiritual remnant of the real Creator? Or is it that strange cross?

and many more!

Mr. Fool belatedly thought of something.

That is, he shouldn't put two things in the same box...

Chapter 422 The gems were stolen!

Seeing that Mr. Fool suddenly stopped talking, Derrick thought that he had accidentally offended the mysterious being in front of him, so he knelt on one knee and said, "Please forgive me!"

Klein: ???

Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, he smiled and said, "Don't mind it, I just remembered something interesting."

Not knowing why, Derrick lowered his head deeply.

Klein thought for a moment and said, "No matter what you want, I can give you a chance... Use everything you can get to exchange what you want from me, from people who are similar to you.

Of course, the premise is that the value is equal.”

“Can we become powerful and get rid of the curse of Silver City in this way?” Derrick raised his head with a burning gaze.

Klein crossed his fingers and said, "I won't give a completely affirmative answer to anything. I can only say that it is possible."

Maybe, that means... hope!

Derrick thought for a long time and said word by word, "Great Fool, I want to become the 'sun' that shines on the earth. I want to get the initial potion of the Sun Path from you."

“I know ‘sequence’ and ‘potion’, and the potion’s name is exactly the same as what I know. It seems that the ‘Silver City’ and I are in the same world.” Klein thought to himself.

But he put on a casual look, "I already know your idea, I accept your commission.

Also, try not to go out for the next two days and don't stay in the same room with other people."

"Okay, I understand." Derrick lowered his head and replied without raising any objections.

Klein nodded. "Very good. Before I send you back, let's complete the equal exchange just now. I gave you the opportunity to become stronger, and you must pay the corresponding price.

I said before, I am a 'fool' who loves history, so please tell me the history of your Silver City."

Hearing this, Derrick spoke slowly, "In accordance with your will, the origin of the City of Silver must begin with the 'Lord of Creation', the 'Almighty God'..."

From Derrick, Klein learned a lot of information about that mysterious continent.

Finally, he asked Derrick to pick a tarot card that represented his identity.

Derrick chose the Sun without much hesitation.

After seeing off the young man from Silver City, Klein was finally able to take off his vest temporarily. With a solemn look, he walked through the gray fog and came to the corner where the sundries were piled.

Looking at the vibrating stainless steel box, Klein pinched his brows with a headache.

"Why was I so careless back then..." He sighed.

Among them, the 'Spiritual Remains of the True Creator' corresponds to a Sequence 7 Extraordinary Item, which allows him to use the power of a hermit three times.

The 'Black Iron Cross' was originally a Sequence 9 Extraordinary Item, but after it was lost and recovered, it inexplicably became a Sequence 8.

Somewhere in the dark, a certain inspiration told Klein that there must be some inexplicable connection between the two.

"Should I contact John Joestar first?" Klein was a little confused.

In the end, he decided to decide his next move the old way.

"It's dangerous to open the box. It's dangerous to open the box. It's dangerous to open the box." Klein took off the yellow crystal bracelet and began to tap the gray mist to tell fortunes for himself.

After a while, the pendulum began to rotate counterclockwise.

This means that there is no danger in opening the box.

Klein frowned.

To ensure nothing goes wrong.

He divined three more times using different methods.

Every time he got the result of 'there is no danger in opening the box', he took a deep breath and opened the box in front of him.

squeak-

A crack was exposed in the stainless steel box.

Klein took a closer look.

However, the 'spiritual remnant of the true creator' had disappeared, and only the 'black iron cross' lay quietly at the bottom of the box.

Strangely, the originally uneven surface of the cross became smooth and clean. Not only that, even the facial features and expressions of the unclear figure hanging upside down on the cross became more profound.

"Who is this?" Countless doubts filled Klein's heart.

……

……

Salons are usually open in the afternoon.

After finishing her meal and taking a nap, Audrey changed into a gorgeous yet unobtrusive dress and took a carriage to the Joestar Manor.

"Is this Mr. Destiny's home? It looks very ordinary."

Entering the gate, an idea instinctively occurred to Audrey.

But soon, she realized that everything she saw was just a disguise. With Mr. Destiny's ability, if he really focused on making money, the wealth he accumulated would probably be better than even the Hall family.

Of course, for High-Sequence Beyonders, money doesn’t mean much...

At this time, the old housekeeper came forward with a very professional smile, "Hello, Miss Audrey Hall? I am the housekeeper here. The master has specifically instructed me that if an exceptionally beautiful lady arrives, I can go to the study to find him."

"Oh my, Mr. Destiny is such a jerk~" Audrey was secretly delighted.

But she acted very decently, "In that case, please lead the way for me."

The old butler bowed slightly and took Audrey to Jon's study.

Jon was busy writing a letter. When he saw Audrey, he ordered, "Give Miss Hall a cup of Earl Grey tea, and some snacks I brought back."

The old butler understood and turned away.

Jon was not shy and asked Audrey to sit down in an empty chair. "Please wait a moment. I'll be there soon."

"It's okay. You can go ahead and do your work." Audrey blinked her curious eyes. "Um... can I walk around here?"

"Of course, please feel free to do so." Jon smiled.

Then, he continued to write on the letter paper: "Regarding the changes in the black iron cross, I know the reason, but because your level is too low, as long as you come into contact with this knowledge, you will be contaminated, so I can't tell you."

"In short, it's a blessing rather than a curse. If the remnant of his spirit is gone, then so be it. I'll get you something to protect yourself when I have the chance."

"As for the black iron cross, although it is harmless, you should try not to use it if possible. After all, you are only a Sequence 8 now. If the mutation gets out of control, it will not be a joke."

"Finally, regarding your transfer to Backlund, I can help you with the process. I have someone above me, a real person..."

"——I look forward to your early arrival, your loyal and reliable friend, John Joestar."

He put pen to paper, sealed the letter, and summoned the messenger.

I saw the small and cute star worm escape into the spirit world with the letter.

Jon turned around.

But Audrey was staring curiously at a book called "The Call of the Abyss" on the bookshelf.

My dear, this book is not interesting to read.

Jon coughed lightly, "Ms. Audrey."

"Ah!" Audrey came back to her senses and said a little apologetically, "I'm so sorry, Mr. Jon, I... I'm so rude."

"It's my fault. That book is a small trap. It contains psychological hints designed to seduce others." Jon walked over to Audrey and said, "Remember what I told you? Danger and treacherous are the true nature of the extraordinary world."

Audrey: (—)

Learned learned learned.

She collected her thoughts and gave a polite yet awkward smile.

Jon pondered for a moment, picked up The Call of the Abyss, and said softly, "This book can pollute the mind and is a powerful weapon against those with extraordinary audience paths.

Miss Audrey, if you continue to advance, you might run into someone from the Psychological Alchemy Society. When that happens, I will lend you this book to protect you."

"This...how can this be possible?" Audrey waved her hands repeatedly.

Jon smiled and said nothing more.

Audrey was deeply moved.

Based on this preconceived notion, she completely regarded Jon as her guide in the extraordinary world, a unique existence who was both her teacher and friend.

Of course, even Audrey herself didn't realize that there were some inexplicable emotions quietly growing in her heart...

At the same time, the living room on the first floor.

"Miss Fors!" Viscount Greylint looked at Fors in surprise and asked in confusion, "You also received an invitation?"

Fors nodded and said, "Viscount."

She chuckled and said, "Mr. Jon is a popular figure in the literary circle. He and I had some correspondence before, and over time, we became familiar with each other."

In formal social occasions, Xianyu always pretends to be decent.

After changing his clothes, Xio stood beside Fors like a bodyguard, with his arms folded, his eyes scanning the surroundings obscurely and vigilantly.

“No other extraordinary people were found.” The dignified Legal Loli said in her heart.

"Is that so?" Viscount Greylint curled his lips.

Originally, he didn't want to attend John Joestar's literary salon, but he couldn't resist his inner uneasiness.

Fortunately, the salon was about to begin and Miss Audrey Hall was nowhere to be seen.

Come to think of it, those speculations are just conjectures...

"Haha, I was really worrying too much. How could the noble and beautiful Audrey be fascinated by that playboy?" Viscount Glint made up his mind that he would find an excuse to leave when the salon officially began.

On the other side, Derek and his fiancée Difenna were chatting, and the content of the chat happened to be related to Jon.

"Your friends are very prestigious. It's rare to see those people in normal times."

"Of course, Jon is an extremely outstanding person, there is no doubt about that."

“Very charming, too.”

"Yes, he is also very charming. When those ladies and young ladies see him, they can't wait to...wait, what do you mean?"

"It's nothing interesting, it's just a casual talk."

"Okay, okay, since you like my friend, I also think your cousin is pretty. You know, the one with red hair."

"Then...deal?"

"make a deal."

Thousands of words can be summed up in one sentence: the nobles are having a big time together.

Just then, someone came down from the second floor.

It's Jon.

But he is not alone.

Beside him, there was a blond, blue-eyed, extremely beautiful aristocratic girl with a pure and elegant temperament.

'patta'

The crystal glass in Viscount Glint's hand fell to the ground.

Then, his body began to tremble like a sieve.

It's broken, 'Backlund's most dazzling gem' has been stolen!

"Earl Hall will definitely kill me." Viscount Glint felt that his life was bleak.
