Mystery: Order and Disorder

While Carroll hadn't erased Eudora's related memories and escaped into the depths of her spiritual body, Grelint asked her to help him record 2 "Guardian Wall" and 3 "Guardian Walls" after weighing it. Stealing", occupying 5 mid-level skill slots - not too much, he only prepared the consumption of one battle.

……

After sending off Eudora, who looked confused and sluggish, Grelint didn't have time to eat lunch or study his newly acquired extraordinary means, but received a briefing from Darnell:

"Go to the headquarters on June 18, and prepare to participate in the semi-annual meeting on behalf of the Vertec branch."

The "headquarters" here refers of course to the Southern Continent Branch of MI9.

"The 18th? Isn't that the day after tomorrow?"

"Representing the Vertec branch?"

Grelint chewed on the other party's words and vaguely grasped the subtle attitude of the upper class, but he was a little unsure.

"Don't they have an idea for me to lead Verteke?"

The current situation on the surface of MI9's Vertec branch is:

Morgan of Sequence 6 was made into a marionette master by Walter and disappeared; Athena of Sequence 7 was killed by Walter, and Marcus of Sequence 7 died in the last small war. Only Grelint and Jon Child of Sequence 8, Joan and Mick of Sequence 9, and a total of two or three low-sequence kittens are left.

At the same time, the most valuable sealed items were also taken away by Walter.

Among the remaining people, the person with the highest status and military rank is undoubtedly only Grelint. Of course, his Sequence level is the biggest problem. On the surface, he is just a Sequence 8 "barbarian". However, Darnell and Basel, who know that he holds the "Chain of Secrets", may not have such a decision?

After thinking about it for a while, Grelint did not get a clearer result, so he had to give up.

"It's useless to think too much, let's go over tomorrow to see the situation."

After Meimei enjoyed a special lunch from the Northern Continent prepared by the servants, Grelint began to return to her room to study the newly acquired "Chain of Tricks" and marionettes. As for the Extraordinary characteristics of "Wraith" and "Oath of Justice", That was already something that Grelint was very familiar with.

……

After some research, Grelint grasped the extraordinary ability of the "Chain of Tricks":

Unlike the first bracelet he obtained, it almost completely preserved the extraordinary ability of the "Mystic Mage".

"The Chain of Tricks" is simplified, and only one core Beyonder ability is retained, that is, "Controlling the Thread of Spiritual Body". Of course, after reaching the Saint level, this extraordinary ability has actually undergone qualitative changes, including things like "transposition", "giving the marionette's own extraordinary ability", etc., which are all achieved by manipulating the spiritual body thread.

What's interesting is that Grelint himself, who holds the "Chain of Craftsmanship", can't use those abilities because this magical item does not retain the various spells of the "Craftsman".

On the contrary, it is the Secret Puppet. Since the peculiar Beyonder abilities corresponding to the “Crafty Mage” will not disappear in essence, Grelint can give them those abilities, but the essence of this extraordinary ability is by giving the “Insect of Spirit”, In order to achieve the purpose of allowing the Secret Puppet to use the power of the body, and the "chain of tricks" is a sealed item, it does not have the ability to generate new "insects of spirit", so the insects of spirit in it can be regarded as using a If there is one less, only one must be recycled in time, otherwise it will be permanently lost.

At present, there are only 17 Spirit Worms left in it.

If the original spirit insects in the "Chain of Tricks" are completely consumed, then it will only have two functions of controlling the marionette and transposing.

On the other side, let's take a look at Morgan, the marionette, who now wears Arist's face.

He was originally a Sequence 6 "Corrupted Baron" in the same way as Grelint, but after drinking too much the wine-red liquid in "Syrah's Drinking Jug", he was "demonized" by it. And according to the law of "Conservation of Extraordinary characteristics", the Extraordinary characteristics of the "Apostle of Desire" that were originally contained in the "2" level sealed artifact were equivalent to being eaten raw by him.

Fortunately, he is just a dead thing, there is no possibility of "out of control".

"It's equivalent to making the object 'Secret Puppet' merge with the Extraordinary characteristics of the 'Apostle of Desire', turning it into a state of half-sealed and half-marionette."

Grelint nodded thoughtfully.

Here, the part of the extraordinary ability that belongs to his Secret Puppet, that is, the extraordinary ability of the "Corrupted Baron", all of which Grelint can use through the "Chain of Tricks" to control him.

But the part of the ability that belongs to his sealed artifact is not completely controllable, and only three remain.

"Foul language - 'slow' and 'death'", these are two extraordinary abilities.

There is also a "desire incarnation", which can transform the body into an illusory and viscous black liquid condensed by various emotions and desires, which can be used to avoid damage and affect the enemy.

Interestingly, as a Sealed Artifact, he also has corresponding negative effects, that is, when he uses Beyonder powers, whether it is himself or the enemy, he will be eroded by the extremely powerful abyss, and his emotions and desires will be amplified. To the extreme, began to fall.

However, this negative effect is completely beneficial and harmless to Grelint, because he uses the "Morgan" sealed artifact through the "Chain of Tricks", so this abyss breath will indeed erode over, but it is difficult to endure it. It's just the "chain of tricks", not Grelint himself.

The only thing to worry about is that "Foul Language - Slow" is an area-based skill, and it will be slowed down within the area, and will also be eroded by the abyss.

———————————————————————————

the next morning.

Grelint woke up this morning and found that Eudora had disappeared.

"I don't know if he secretly received news from the Secret Order and left, or was taken away by the other demigod."

He mumbled, praying in his heart that the truth is the former. If it is the latter, it means that you are already exposed to the other party's sight, although it may only be the one that pays the least amount of attention.

"But Carol didn't tell me... Does this mean that the fact should be the latter?"

If only Eudora left by herself, she should have reminded herself. Only when a high-ranking Beyonder was next to her would she not dare to make small moves or notify Grelint.

……

After breakfast, Grelint grabbed Morgan's shoulder with one hand, his figure quickly faded, and he escaped into the spirit world--The Secret Puppet is not good at all, he must carry it wherever he goes, and he can't leave. too far. Fortunately, Grelint had already used Sequence 4 "Transformation" to deal with his appearance before, and it was better to fool others.

Wimmings Street, MI9 South Continent Headquarters.

Grelint hadn't been here for a while, and was a little unfamiliar for a while.

Fortunately, the guard on duty seemed to have seen him before, and he let him in after a brief look at the documents, without letting him say the slogan. Grelint can't slogan right now. MI9's slogan changes at any time. He doesn't know what the slogan used by the headquarters recently.

He was originally supposed to come tomorrow, and was brought in by Buck.

……

Darnell was not surprised by Grelint's early arrival, and that's what he meant by this vague wording. I saw that he was still wearing the olive green army general's uniform, which seemed to never change.

"It's good for you to come here today. I have something to tell you in advance."

He glanced at Alister next to Grelint, and did not ask Grelint to drive him away, but said bluntly:

"The matter is confidential, let's discuss it in detail inside."

Inside.

Darnell pinched his delicate moustache and said before Grelint asked:

"Although Vertec has no team leader for the time being, and no one has submitted a report, I and the Admiral can basically guess the situation there."

He paused, as if he was guessing the specific situation as he said, and seemed to organize the language:

"You probably don't know yet that the Morgan you saw was actually the Intis spy Walter, a 'Marionette Master' in disguise.

Yes, he is the murderer of your father four years ago. "

"what?"

Grelint cooperated, showing a little surprise and restrained anger from his eyes, while clenching his fists and saying nothing.

He knew that one day Darnell and the others would tell him the truth!

His reaction was completely expected by Darnell, so he was not surprised and continued:

"Well, although I understand your anger very well, I still hope that you can put your hatred aside for a while and bring your reason back to think~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Grelint let out a small sigh and let go. With clenched fists, he said in a hoarse voice:

"Sorry, Your Excellency Lieutenant General, I lost my way, please continue."

Darnell nodded and continued:

"In the series of tasks we asked you to cooperate with, we actually hoped to use Walter to lead out the demigod behind him and kill him. Our plan was very smooth. Just yesterday, we successfully eliminated one of the other demigods. , and also made Lord Calvin successfully promoted to saint.

The only downside is that we let Walter escape.

I think by now he should have taken most of the sealed items we kept in Vertek and escaped back to West Balam with the 'Guiding Lantern'. "

After briefly describing the current situation to Grelint, Darnell threw out what he wanted to tell him in advance.

He knocked on the table and recounted in a pointed way:

"Now Your Excellency Admiral is asking me to send additional staff to Verteque, transfer '2' sealed artifacts, and submit the list of people who can lead the team and the reasons. Based on your situation, initially, I plan to send 2 more Extraordinary of Sequence 7, 2 pieces of '2' level sealed artifact.

As for the team leader, in my opinion, you are actually the most suitable candidate, whether it is your identity, military rank or strength.

The only thing to worry about is that although you have enough strength after you have the Chain of Secrets, that is not a reason to convince the other two Beyonders.

After all, you are not yet a 'briber'. "

At the sound of tapping on the table, Grelint was stunned for a moment, and he heard the overtones of Darnell's words.

The point is not whether he is a Sequence Seven, but whether he is a bribe.
