Mystery: Start with the Reader

Is there any connection between "Book of Virtues" and "Ghost Empire"?

If it is true, then it means that the "Night Emperor" has other plans in creating the "Ghost Empire" besides protecting his people...

Otherwise it wouldn't be so fussy.

What purpose would she have?

With this thought in his mind, Abner looked at Daphne opposite and directly ordered: "Show me the 'Book of Virtues'."

"Yes! Lord God Envoy!" Without any hesitation, Daphne took out a beautifully packaged book that looked like a "code" and handed it to Abner.

This is because she is already a devout believer in the "Lord" and cannot disobey the orders of the Divine Envoy. Secondly, it is also because she is an "ancient scholar". As long as she has owned an item before, she can "pick it up" from history at any time. "Coming out and giving it away will not affect her use.

Abner turned on the "Pure White Eyes" and after careful study, he only confirmed that there was nothing wrong with the function that Daphne had described before. As for the rest, he could not see more for a while.

Seeing the Divine Envoy frowning slightly, Daphne said with a knowing look: "The 'Book of Virtues' may have many functions that I don't know about, and I was just thinking of asking the Divine Envoy for your help... But I'm not in a hurry... …If you gain anything in the future, please let me know…”

Hearing this, Abner glanced at Daphne appreciatively. After all, this kind of rhetoric sounded more comfortable.

So he pretended to think for a moment, then nodded and said: "Okay, then I will borrow it for a while. I will let you know when my research has results."

Abner is not coveting the other party's sealed artifact, but since this item is related to the "Ghost Empire", it would be better for him to have it in his hands when he is going to explore there next month. Maybe it is An important prop.

After putting away the "Book of Virtues" properly, Abner looked at Daphne again and said with a smile: "Tell me more about yourself now."

"Myself..." Daphne subconsciously recalled her past, and then said: "My experience is actually not complicated...

"I was born in the year 846 of the Fifth Age. Since my father was a demigod, I was a 'Secret Puppet Master' since I was born..."

No wonder your first choice in the trial space of "Book of Virtues" was to scare me by making Reina look like "White Saint" Katarina... This should be because of your role as "Cunning Mage" Better?

While Abner was suddenly enlightened, he continued to listen to Daphne narrate every detail of her life.

Because his father had a short lifespan, he was trained with all his strength. When he was less than twenty years old, he got the opportunity to introduce a demigod into the "Book of Virtue" and kill him. He completed the ritual of "The Magician" and obtained divinity.

Less than ten years later, she not only completed the performance of "The Magician", but also made contributions to the "Secret Order", found out the whereabouts of "Antigonus Family Notes", and received Zaratul's reward - —An "Ancient Scholar" potion.

Then, she lived on a small island in the foggy sea that had been shrouded in special power since before the founding of the Solomon Empire and was isolated from the world for 300 years. It was not until Russell discovered the island that she completed the ritual and was promoted to the rank of Sequence 3…

After listening to Daphne's review of her life, Abner nodded with satisfaction and initially confirmed that although the vice-president of the "Secret Order" had killed many people, he was not a great evil person. This was enough. .

It can even be said that because this lady was born well and was influenced by the "Book of Virtue", she was isolated from the world for three hundred years. Compared with other "Gou Sanjia", her character is a bit simple.

If I had to make a comparison, even Klein was more sophisticated than her.

Abner muttered, and since he could not analyze any more useful information from her experience, he said goodbye to Daphne after lunch.

But before leaving, he suddenly remembered something, smiled and said to the "ancient scholar" in front of him: "Can you give me a few more of your 'spiritual insects'?"

"Why?"

…

Backlund, No. 26 Kinster Street, Jowood District.

Melissa was holding a mechanical book signed by Russell and was reading it with gusto. She was still writing and drawing in her hands, as if she was checking something.

At this moment, her little maid suddenly knocked on the door and came in, reporting: "Miss, there is a package for you."

"My package?" Melissa put down the book and curiously took the box from the maid.

"A birthday present for Miss Melissa Moretti - Sherlock Moriarty"

Looking at the message on the box, Melissa's eyes were full of confusion, because she didn't know a gentleman named Sherlock, how could he give her a birthday gift?

With doubts, she opened the box, and soon, a badge that seemed to make people feel peaceful appeared in front of her eyes.

"This...is this an extraordinary item?!" Melissa suddenly stood up and observed the badge vigilantly.

As a "general person", she intuitively felt that she was not wrong.

"Have you seen who sent this box?" Melissa did not dare to touch the badge easily, but looked at the maid and asked.

"Miss... I'm not sure... I heard someone ringing the doorbell and went out to check... Then I saw this thing placed outside the door." Seeing that the master's expression was rare and serious, the little maid spoke in a panic, and finally took it with her Crying tone.

"Don't be nervous, you didn't do anything wrong..." Sensing that her maid seemed about to cry, Melissa comforted her first, and then after thinking for a while, she ordered, "You should go to the South District of the Bridge immediately. Harvest Church and invite my teacher, Miss Hazel, over."

As she spoke, Melissa took out pen and paper and wrote a letter, briefly describing the situation she encountered here.

It wasn't until she watched the maid boarding the public carriage with the letter that Melissa calmed down a little, and at this time, she unexpectedly found that her "Scientist" potion had been completely digested.

A "generalist" needs to be familiar with the basic knowledge in various fields, and Melissa's last shortcoming, her knowledge about "extraordinary items", was also eliminated the moment she saw the "Incubus Badge" and the detailed instructions next to it. Made it up.

…

Intis, Trier.

Abner, who had just come out of Daphne's house, received feedback from the role, and the progress of potion digestion increased a lot again.

Originally, he estimated that he would be able to fully digest the "Prophet" at the beginning of next month, but now it seems that it should be done before the end of the month.

"Melissa was able to detect Sherlock in advance and deflect her fate, so there was so much feedback?"
