Chapter 622 Itching Curse

"The explosion of death will impact three channels at the same time."

When it comes to this topic, the priest seems a little worried:
"I am not a church ring warlock, so I can't know the more specific situation. From the current known situation, the local natural church believes that the three There may be problems with the passage.”

【Nature and Evil Thought Church】is the Church of the Five Gods, the first to preach locally, and currently all the seals on the door at the foot of the mountain are made of The natural church is the main body. Even the actual position of the Church of Nature corresponds to the position of the door in the narrow space.

"There may be a problem."

Shade can't do anything about this kind of thing, but fortunately this is not his responsibility. The only thing he has to do in this city is to collect enough information, and after Luvia has fortuned the information about the third candidate, he will use the preliminary preparations to find the target in one fell swoop.

"The gate on the top of the mountain in the narrow room was suppressed by an old man, and the gate on the mountainside was lost because of the concealment of the Demoness emperors. The church also knows this information, but obviously not as much as I do."

It's not that the church is incompetent or that Augustus priest is too powerful. Shade thinks it's purely because the level 0 relic on the priest, which is suspected to be related to the "priest angel", is too powerful.

Before the food was served, Shade expressed his thoughts:
"priest, I also met some friends in Midhills these days. After dinner, let's go to The Blind House, they are actually the local stronghold of the [spirit cultivator order].”

“spirit cultivator sect? The stronghold of the regiment!"

The priest said in surprise, he knew the spirit cultivator order, but obviously did not link the two.

"You can hand over your current information and the information you have in the future to the [spirit cultivator order], and the order will definitely be able to find a way to inform the church."

"This That's good but I'd better not show my face."

Auguspriest shook his head and took the pipe out of his pocket, but put it back after thinking about it:
"I've got everything I know. Leave it to you, you go to the spirit cultivator sect, I am the priest of the Orthodox Church after all, so don't take the initiative to contact them. But, are you sure, do you know the higher-ups of the sect?"

"Yes Yes, I also met with the leader of the sect in the morning, and the nun of the eleventh ring provided a great help when rescuing you."

Shade was demoted, and the priest looked at it in surprise. Glancing at him:
"Didn't you just come here for a week? Detective, you really make a lot of friends."

"Don't talk about that."

Shade shook his head, Skip this topic, and don't want to involve Demoness because of the spirit cultivator order:
"Agnostic relics are really dangerous."

He sighed softly, the priest wanted to speak, but the waiter He pushed the dining cart and walked in. After he left, Priest continued:
"In fact, even the least dangerous Poet-level (Level 5) relic can cause us a lot of trouble. You know the Poet-level relic [Itching Curse] ?"

"I don't know."

Shade shook his head with a look of interest, so the priest said:
"This is a relic in the form of information. , similar to a curse. Specifically, the back of the cursed person will be very itchy, and once someone sees him reaching out and scratching, he will also feel itching, so that the curse will continue to spread. At the later stage, even as long as Someone mentioned feeling a little itchy in the back, and even writing about it in a book, the curse spreads."

"Oh, that sounds terrifying."

Shade He rubbed the back of the chair with his back without a trace. When the priest mentioned this, he subconsciously thought about whether his back felt itchy, and then he really felt itchy.

"Such a bad curse, is it only a poet level?"

"Yes, because the characteristic is only itching. And it's the kind of hair that can be comfortably relieved just by scratching it. Itchy. Detective, what are you doing?"

Shade, who was quietly rubbing against the back of the chair, shook his head:

"It's nothing, then how to cure this curse can't last forever Are you going to have to put up with an itchy back?"

"No, no need. Just find the first person affected by the relic, then peel the skin off his back and make it with nitrification. Leather is fine, so that information will be preserved on that piece of human skin. Sadly, there are as many as 193 known sources of the [Itching Curse], which are still known to the church.”

priest shrugged:

"Even if the source cannot be found, as long as two-thirds of the people infected with the curse apply a special ointment on a regular basis, the contagious properties of this relic will be reduced. It can disappear, so the harm is really not big. Oh, ring warlocks generally have varying degrees of resistance to poet-level relics, so this curse is invalid for high ring warlocks. Oh, and the spell [Itching] developed based on this relic Curse], this kind of mischievous spell is ineffective for all ring warlocks, but people who learn this kind of spell are really boring."

Feeling a little itchy on the back, Shade swears that he must do it as soon as possible. Ascend to the high ring to prevent encountering these not dangerous but particularly disturbing curses in this dangerous world.

The two agreed to see each other tomorrow. Priest considers what Mystic Art can be associated with Shade's spirit rune [true death], and then takes advantage of tonight to use all he has mastered so far about Hazama and the outbreak of death. write down everything. But the priest still has work to do in the church. The senior clergy who have been called in have already started basic ceremony training, so they won't be able to meet Shade often at Midhill Fort.

However, it is now completely certain that the purpose of summoning Augustus priest to Midhill Castle is really for a large dive technique ceremony.

And when Priest took out his wallet to pay for this sumptuous dinner, Shade, who turned to look out the window, remembered another thing:

"Oh,priest , you owe the doctor 3,000 pounds."

Auguspriest, who was counting out the tip, shook his hand and almost dropped the coin in his palm to the ground:
"Huh?"

p>

He looked towards the young detective opposite him in surprise, as if wishing he could say it was a joke.

Shade reminded:
"This is the cost of opening the door, you know, although my friends can help for free, but they can't let them pay for the tools in vain, right?"

"That's right."

The priest said tremblingly:
"Looks like I need to save some money recently."

Augustus priest except for the ring Warlock doesn't have a lot of expenses other than his studies, he just donates his money habitually. And the 3,000 pounds this time is not a small amount. It seems that Priest has planned to return to Tobeske and start to consider selling potions in the local black market.

"However, where did the doctor get so much liquidity? How did he get it himself? Under normal circumstances, shouldn't four people get it?"

The priest thought of this again. One thing, Shade remembered that others had warned him that they must not tell the old man in front of them about their collective bet on gambling:

"The doctor invested a lot of money some time ago."

He mumbled.

"What kind of investment can make the doctor earn so much?"

The priest was very curious, pressed the tip under the cup, the two stood up from the chairs, and the waiter led the way. They leave.

"It has something to do with a small nobleman."

Shade's eyes wandered:

"And it has something to do with foreigners, does Seth dukedom know?"

p>

"I know, it's not far from here."

priest:
"It turns out to be a multinational business."

"It can be said that, and foreigners also There are quite a few. It is related to some special wood materials and ink. It is said that this business has a great influence."

"How dare a doctor be involved in such a thing? As far as I know, this kind of business The risk is not small."

Walking down the stairs, Priest took his pipe out of his pocket.

"He has received inside information and believes that the probability of making a profit from this investment is more than 60%."

"This is not bad. It seems that the doctor has indeed made a lot of money. Bill is really lucky this time."

The two walked out of the restaurant, looking up almost at the same time, looking towards the Star Sea above Mount Sikar.

On the outskirts of Fort Midhill, on the edge of the mountain, this Star Sea is extremely dazzling and extremely bright.

(Mia is running.)

Shade did not return to Midhill Fort with the priest, but went directly into the mountain and returned to the abandoned tower in the mountain. It was eight o'clock in the evening when I returned to the basement of my home through the basement of the abandoned tower.

When I came to the first floor and saw the lights in the hallway, I knew that Luvia, who was playing with the astrology equipment, had not left. And when Shade came to the second floor and caught the excited cat, he saw the seventeen-year-old girl was there:
"Good evening, Luvia, good evening, Iluna."

Shade greeted and saw two ladies sitting on the sofa playing chess. There are card games like Lord's on this world, and of course there are board games, but they are relatively less popular.

"Good evening, Shade. Have you seen Augustus priest?"

Luvia asked, staring at the chessboard. Shade took a look and found that he didn't understand this kind of chess at all, so he walked into the bedroom with the cat who was excited to jump up and rubbed his little head against his chin, to change into the clothes he wore at home.

"See, August first seems to be in good shape, but there's a big problem with Fort Midhill. If it doesn't work out, it's an accident no less than 'Send by Sea'. I learned about the local folklore and legends today, and the stories are very interesting."

"I thought you played Rhodes for a day at Fort Midhill, and those players didn't like it very much. Do you play cards out of town?"

The girl with long brown hair asked, now she is at a disadvantage on the chessboard, Luvia's chess skills are very superb:
"However, why do you always encounter Such a dangerous thing?"

"This is also my question until now."

Luvia said, picking up her white chess piece and placing the biggest on Iluna's side The soldier's chess piece kicked out of the chessboard, and the latter immediately covered his face:
"I lost again, Luvia, you didn't predict in advance how I would play chess?"

"I I wouldn't do such a boring thing."

Luvia stood up and went to the kitchen to prepare tea, August Priest was all right, and Shade was free at Fort Midhill. Therefore, tonight the three of them are going to discuss the matter of the third chosen person.
