Chapter 151: Encountering a Witch in the Wilderness

Chapter 151: Encountering a Witch in the Wilderness

Facing Miss Eleanor's sudden attack and the tense atmosphere, Odysseus was not panicked: "I was just curious and went to the village that was burned down 20 years ago. That shouldn't be Miss Eleanor's home."

Eleanor looked at Odysseus for a few seconds before saying, "That used to be my home."

Odysseus volunteered: "But it was destroyed by an accidental fire, right?"

He noticed that when Eleanor was speaking, the servants around her all looked cautious and dared not speak. Even Brad, the owner of the castle, did not dare to join in the conversation between the two.

"It's not an accident!" Eleanor suddenly took a deep breath and said, "Someone set the fire on purpose. They wanted to burn me to death! They wanted to burn me to death!"

Brad looked horrified: "Oh my god, there is such a thing.

"Fortunately, fortunately you escaped."

Eleanor regained her beautiful smile: "Yes, luckily I escaped."

Odysseus noticed that the atmosphere around him was finally not as tense as before.

He just breathed a sigh of relief when Eleanor suddenly asked, "You are a wizard, right?"

Odysseus smiled and said, "It's just a few tricks."

"Brad said your witchcraft is powerful."

Odysseus laughed and said, "No matter how powerful witchcraft is, it is just witchcraft."

Eleanor nodded: "That's right."

Then she looked straight at Odysseus and said, "Did you get any results from your investigation this afternoon?"

Seeing that beautiful look, Odysseus suddenly felt his mind go blank: "There is a result..."

He was surprised to find that he had to tell the person in front of him all the results of his investigation.

Her charming eyes were fascinating, and her beautiful face made people's heart flutter. Odysseus felt that he could not bear to deceive such a beautiful girl.

But Odysseus's inner alarm bells were ringing. He knew that there was something wrong with this woman. There must be something wrong with her.

So Odysseus paused and tried to look away. Just completing this action made him sweat profusely.

At this time, Eleanor suddenly stood up. Some of the servants around her took out their knives, while others picked up vases and other decorations around them as weapons and slowly moved closer to Odysseus.

Odysseus realized the danger and quickly put on the black glove he named "Hand of Judgment" (Note 1). Suddenly, he exuded a vague majesty.

Eleanor was slightly stunned, then sat down again, and the servants around her slowly retreated and returned to their seats.

With the help of the gloves, Odysseus dared to look at Eleanor again.

"I...my investigation results show that everything is normal here." Odysseus forced a smile.

After learning that Eleanor was not a ghost, Odysseus guessed that she was an extraordinary person from the path of "Death", but he just realized that he was wrong, and very wrong!

Eleanor also smiled and said, "What a reassuring result."

As she spoke, she looked at Brad who was standing aside. The lord who had been in a daze just now seemed to come back to his senses suddenly: "That's great, I can finally be at ease with Miss Eleanor."

Odysseus suddenly stood up and said, "Sorry, my appetite is not very good, so I will not eat dinner."

Then he said to Brad: "The investigation here is over. I will leave early tomorrow morning."

He actually said this to Eleanor. He knew that Eleanor was not going to attack him immediately due to the pressure from the "Hand of Judgment" gloves.

So Odysseus took the initiative to admit defeat, hoping to delay time.

After saying this, Odysseus returned to the second floor, to his room.

He breathed a sigh of relief and looked at his pocket watch. It was only 6:20.

Then, while paying attention to the situation outside, Odysseus wondered what kind of Beyonder Eleanor was.

Judging from Eleanor's performance just now, she should be a Beyonder of the "Witch" path, but why were the servants controlled by Eleanor?

Suddenly, Odysseus recalled the disturbing symbol on the altar on the top of the mountain. He guessed that Eleanor's strange ability should have something to do with that symbol. (Note: 2)

Boom~

A huge sound suddenly came from the mountain. Odysseus quickly looked out the window. It was already dark, but Odysseus could still vaguely see a cloud of dust floating on the road leading to the outside world from the castle.

He immediately had a bad premonition.

Knock knock knock~

Soon there was a knock on the door.

Odysseus asked, "Who?"

"Mr. Wizard, it's me."

The voice belonged to the head butler. He said, "Mr. Brad asked me to tell you that there was a landslide just now. We can't leave here for the time being. We can only ask you to stay here for a few more days."

Odysseus replied grimly, "I know."

The first thing that came to his mind was that Eleanor had already learned that he had asked the official Extraordinary for help, so she blocked the road and prevented the official Extraordinary from arriving.

But Odysseus thought about it. They were official extraordinary people, not eighty-year-old old ladies. Even if a landslide occurred and blocked the road, they would immediately abandon the car and rush to support as quickly as possible.

It was just 10 or 20 minutes later than expected.

If Eleanor was trying to delay time, he should have taken action immediately after the landslide.

But she did not rush up to fight, but asked someone to tell her that there was a landslide.

So Odysseus thought that Eleanor's action was just to prevent him from escaping.

But a new question arises: why should she stay?

After thinking it over again and again, Odysseus thought that it might be because he was a Extraordinary. Odysseus had heard from Max that some believers of evil gods not only liked to use ordinary people as sacrifices, they preferred to use Extraordinary people with stronger spirituality as sacrifices.

Odysseus smiled helplessly. He originally thought that he was here to destroy a vengeful spirit or ghost, but he did not expect that the situation would be completely out of his control.

As Odysseus thought about it, he took off his loose wizard robe, revealing the knight's uniform that was easy to move in.

But Odysseus did not take off his hat. He could feel that he had lost a lot of hair because of wearing the "Hand of Judgment". He used the hat to hold the hair together to prevent it from falling and being used by others.

At the same time, Odysseus replaced several of the extraordinary weapons he had taken out before. Originally, all his preparations were to deal with the extraordinary people from the "Death" path, but the problem was that the opponent was not an extraordinary person from this path.

After making preparations, Odysseus planned to jump out of the window and leave to meet up with the official Beyonder.

It would be even better if Eleanor caught up with him. After Odysseus met up with the official Beyonder, he could turn around and give her a head-on attack.

Knock knock knock~

Just at this moment, there was another knock on the door.

Odysseus ignored him and was about to jump down when he opened the window when Brad's voice came from outside: "Mr. Wizard, it's me! Open the door quickly, I have something very important to talk to you about."

Odysseus was slightly stunned, drew his sword with one hand and opened the door with the other.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Brad hurried in and said in horror, "I saw and heard everything just now!

"Eleanor has become the master here, and the servants all obey her orders..."

Odysseus looked at the lord coldly. In the afternoon, he noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with the head butler, so he did not let the head butler report to the "Mechanical Heart" and told the head butler that he had found nothing.

Just now he had clearly felt that there was something wrong with everyone in the castle. They had all become Eleanor's spies and puppets.

Brad saw Odysseus's expression and suddenly realized something. He quickly took out a pendant with the "Holy Emblem of the Night" from his clothes: "I have this!"

He said, "This was given to me by the pastor of the Church of Darkness, who said it could help me ward off disasters and evil temptations.

"Today I realized that it was this pendant that kept me sane.

"From just now on, I have been pretending to be a puppet. In fact, I have not lost my mind."

Odysseus took a look at the pendant and smiled, "I didn't expect you to have such a skill."

Brad asked, "What should we do?"

"What else can I do?" Odysseus spread his hands and said, "I am no match for Eleanor, so I plan to escape overnight."

"Please take me with you!" Brad said, "If you can help me escape, I will definitely reward you handsomely."

Odysseus said: "It's already very difficult for me to escape by myself..."

"800 pounds!"

"Okay, sir." Odysseus smiled and said, "I have a way to get you to leave here with me!"

Brad breathed a sigh of relief: "That's great."

Odysseus suddenly said, "How about we go to Miss Eleanor's village and hide there?"

Brad was a little surprised: "Why go there?"

"Emperor Roselle once said that many times the most dangerous place is the safest place." Odysseus smiled.

In fact, he thought of using this method to attract Eleanor's attention and continue to delay time.

Brad nodded: "The wisdom of the great emperor is always admirable."

"Let's go." After saying this, Odysseus put on his cloth bag, sprinkled a handful of powder, grabbed Brad's collar, and jumped out of the window.

Brad opened his mouth and screamed. Just when they were about to fall to the ground, Odysseus suddenly spread his legs and walked forward leisurely. The two of them seemed to draw a beautiful parabola and flew towards the woods.

In the castle, Eleanor watched all this quietly, and the corners of her mouth suddenly curled up into a smile.

On the other side, Odysseus took Brad quickly into the woods and climbed towards the top of the mountain.

Soon, a thin mist rose in the woods, but the two men did not slow down and ran towards the top of the mountain.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Brad, panting, stretched out his hand to support a tree and said, "Wait a minute, wait a minute..."

Odysseus turned around and said, "You can't run anymore?"

"No... no," Brad said breathlessly, "Didn't you notice? We are lost."

Odysseus smiled and said, "Let's go, we are not lost."

Brad pointed to the tree branch in front of him: "I have seen that tree three times..."

Bang~

Something suddenly fell and hit his outstretched arm.

Brad looked down and saw what looked like a shoe.

Then he suddenly looked up and saw a corpse hanging above his head. It was missing a shoe and was swaying in the breeze, as if it was doing a strange dance.

 Note 1: Uh, the name of this sealed object has been changed.

  Note 2: The setting is that Odysseus has only read "Lord of Mysteries" and has not read "Fate Ring", so he does not know the information about "The GiverChapter 152 This is a sorcerer

Chapter 152 This is a sorcerer

Brad was so frightened that the hairs on his body stood up.

Odysseus looked up and said, "This guy has been hanging there for a while. Look, he is almost turning into a mummy."

Brad was about to cry: It's none of my business whether you turn into a mummy or not!

"Let's go." Odysseus urged again: "We must reach that village before Eleanor catches up with us."

After saying that, he turned around and left without waiting for Brad.

Brad hurried to catch up and noticed that there were many corpses in the woods. They were hanging there and swinging by something like black hair, as if they were swinging on a swing.

Brad didn't feel tired at this time. He was afraid that Odysseus would leave him here, so he used all his strength and potential to try to keep up with the person in front.

"It seems that you didn't do a serious inspection before you bought this castle." Odysseus, who was walking in front, said: "Some of these people hanging above our heads have been there for more than ten years, and some have not yet begun to rot.

"There should be people missing around here all the time."

Brad didn't have the energy to speak. He was surprised and tried hard to keep up with the figure in front of him.

After walking for more than half an hour, just when Brad could not walk anymore, the view in front of them suddenly became clear and they arrived at the cemetery where Odysseus had arrived during the day.

Odysseus was slightly stunned: "Huh, he actually walked out like this."

Originally he wanted to walk around in there for a few laps. Although there were some corpses hanging inside, which made people feel cold, it was a very good way to delay time.

Brad was sweating profusely from the heat. He sat on the ground and gasped for a while before looking at the graves around him and asking, "Where is this?"

Odysseus smiled and said, "Miss Eleanor's home."

Brad swallowed and suddenly felt a chill on his back, not hot at all.

Odysseus warmly welcomed them, "Come, come, say hello to Eleanor's family. Perhaps you can find Eleanor's grave among the tombstones."

Brad was so frightened that he was shaking all over and his face turned extremely pale.

At this moment, there was a sudden sharp "creaking" sound in the cemetery, as if a damaged door was opened, or as if something wooden was lifted up.

Then, hands stretched out from behind the graves one after another. Some of them were left with only bones, while others were still covered in rotten flesh.

It seemed that they often crawled out of their graves. They were familiar with the place and soon stood beside their own graves.

Odysseus reached into his backpack and said, "Look, they are so enthusiastic and took the initiative to come out and say hello to us!"

He smiled and said, "Don't be so polite, go back, lying down is the best way for you to treat guests."

Brad felt his legs trembling, his crotch felt hot, and liquid flowed to his feet.

Then, there were strange noises in the woods. Brad saw in the moonlight that the corpses on the trees were crawling down one by one and were surrounding this side.

After the extreme fear, Brad didn't feel so scared anymore. The worst that could happen was that he would die here.

"My grave is not here." Eleanor came out of the woods, followed by the castle's butler, head butler and other servants.

Eleanor said coldly: "Many people wanted me dead, but in the end I survived and built a tomb for those who wanted me dead."

Odysseus looked at the corpses around him, as well as the undead spirits emitting a faint white light that Brad couldn't see. They were completely surrounded.

But Odysseus remained calm. Since Eleanor appeared here, it meant that the support from the official extraordinary people would be arriving soon. She planned to leave after dealing with Odysseus and others, or go to deal with the official extraordinary people again.

So Odysseus asked, "If I'm not mistaken, you were the one who set the fire in your village twenty years ago, right?"

"Yes!" Eleanor said frankly, "They said I had sold my soul to the evil god and wanted me to die!"

She laughed and said, "These people are so ridiculous, when I was young, they were the ones who kept saying they wanted to find ways to become stronger.

"When I found the god that could make people stronger, they said it was an evil god.

"I had no choice but to sacrifice them to the gods and let them die in agony one by one.

"Then, I built a cemetery here and buried them all in it. After they died, they were still under my control and would never be able to escape!"

Odysseus frowned and said, "You are a Beyonder from the Witch's Path, and you seem to be a Sequence 6. But this Path does not have the ability to control corpses and undead, right?"

Eleanor smiled and said, "This extraordinary world has many, many secrets. It is more complicated and weird than you can imagine."

She paused and continued, "There's no point in wasting time. It will take a long time for your companions to find you, and I'm sure I can get rid of you within a minute."

"Wait a minute." Odysseus said, "I have another question, why haven't you killed Brad yet?

"Let me guess, are you trying to use him to attract more people here?"

When Brad heard Odysseus suddenly mention him, he felt his strength restored. He stood up and drew out the dagger he had prepared long ago.

"That's right." Eleanor smiled and said, "For more than a year, he has been sending servants here continuously, so I can control such a large team.

"But he himself doesn't know this. Although the pendant on his body has protected some of his sanity, he has always been in a state of being 'enchanted' by me. Only when he is a little more sober will he think of saving himself."

Brad pinched his head and said, "I... I killed so many people? And I didn't even notice it."

As he spoke, he held the dagger and stabbed Odysseus in the lower back quickly.

But Odysseus seemed to have eyes on his back. He suddenly grabbed Brad's wrist with his backhand, then shook it hard, and the dagger fell to the ground.

Then, Odysseus pushed Brad down without even looking at him: "I have long felt that there is something wrong with him, but now that his sneak attack has failed, your 'Charm' ability has ended."

Brad stayed on the ground, as if thinking about what he had just done?

Eleanor smiled and said, "I don't know if your witchcraft is powerful, but you are indeed very smart."

Few people can escape the backstab of their peers.

However, Odysseus's cleverness was no longer of any significance. As soon as Eleanor raised her hand, the surrounding corpses and undead gathered around Odysseus.

"I want to correct some of your thoughts just now." Odysseus took out a red axe from the cloth bag: "I think the official Beyonder should be able to find us soon."

Having said this, he threw the "fire bomb" in his hand towards the altar.

Elena smiled slightly, stretched out her hand and pointed, and a skeleton jumped up and caught the axe.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Boom~

A violent explosion sounded, and corpses were blown to the ground. The skeleton that caught the axe was directly blown to pieces, and many corpses were ignited by the flames, but they did not feel any pain. With flames burning on their bodies, they were still moving forward silently.

The undead with dull faces were also affected by the explosion and fell there in a mess. For a moment, a gap appeared in the encirclement.

The explosion suddenly brought Brad back to his senses, and the motivation to survive gave him strength. He seized the opportunity and ran towards the gap in the encirclement.

The official extraordinary people in the distance must have noticed this as well.

But Odysseus did not rush to the gap, but rushed to Eleanor. He raised his hand: "Imprison!"

Eleanor was also shocked by the explosion. She had seen explosions before, but she had never seen such a violent one.

The key point is that the explosion came from an axe, which was very surprising.

When Eleanor came to her senses, she was surrounded by streams of sticky liquid and fell into a state of "imprisonment".

Odysseus rushed closer: "Death!"

He stretched out his fist and hit Eleanor's left shoulder hard, severely deforming her left shoulder.

The "death" of "Punishment Knight" cannot be avoided by using a stand.

But Eleanor suddenly smiled, and she grabbed Odysseus's fist with her uninjured right hand: "If I were just an extraordinary person, I would probably die in your hands today!"

She glanced at the head butler in the castle, who suddenly became lifeless and fell to the ground.

Inolin's injuries recovered miraculously!

Odysseus' eyes widened. He had never seen such extraordinary ability before, but he remained calm: "Exile!"

Inolin, who had just recovered, was pushed away by a huge force, and in a blink of an eye she was very far away from Odysseus.

Odysseus turned around and ran towards the gap in the encirclement of corpses and undead, but the gap was almost surrounded again.

Odysseus took out another "fire bomb", threw it out, and hid behind a grave.

Boom!

The blast made Odysseus' ears buzz. He rolled and crawled forward and escaped from the gap.

After leaving the encirclement and running a few steps, Odysseus saw Brad standing there in a daze, staring in the direction of the altar.

Odysseus stepped forward, sprinkled a handful of "flying powder", and flew up by Brad's collar.

While flying, Odysseus threw a "fire bomb" in the direction of the altar. From beginning to end, Odysseus did not dare to look at the symbols on the altar.

Even so, after Odysseus threw the "fire bomb" over there, he suddenly felt very guilty, as if he had done something terribly wrong.

Boom!

The huge explosion brought Odysseus back to his senses. He saw the hut burning and collapsing, and the altar was blown up.

Odysseus had just breathed a sigh of relief when he suddenly felt a force pulling himself and Brad down.

Inolin, who had escaped from the "exile" state, had more spider silk in her hands. She was like a poisonous spider waiting on the spider web, pulling Odysseus and Brad closer to her little by little.

 Starting tomorrow, the number of words in each chapter will increase again, from 3,000 to 4,000, and two chapters will be updated every day. That's right, the author will start updating 8,000 words a day.

  However, as the number of words increases, there will be fewer additional chapters, and only when the monthly votes exceed 1,000 or there are large rewards will there be additional chapters. Also, sometimes at the end of the month, I ask for additional chapters for monthly votes, and at the beginning of the month, I thank everyone for their monthly votes and add additional chapters.

  Finally, I would like to thank everyone for their continued subscriptions and support. The average subscription is now over 800. The author feels that this is a very good result, better than any previous book, and this also gives the author great confidence.

  The author will try to write more and update more to thank everyone for their support oChapter 153 It's Tarot Time Again

Chapter 153 It's time for the Tarot Club again

. Odysseus was entangled by Eleanor's spider silk. He quickly sprinkled a handful of red powder and used "fire magic" to burn the spider silk.

Although the spider silk was tough, it could not withstand the fire, and he and Brad escaped in an instant.

However, the orange flame of the "Fire Magic" suddenly turned black and turned into a ball of black flame that pounced towards Odysseus.

Odysseus quickly fell to the ground to avoid the black flames, which ignited the trees in the forest, and those trees withered instantly.

At this time, Odysseus had already flown over the human wall formed by corpses and undead. He sprinkled a handful of white powder on his legs and Brad's legs, and ran down the mountain.

Brad had no choice but to grit his teeth and continue climbing. He felt that he had never run so much and so fast in his entire life.

But he soon discovered that although he had no strength left just now, his legs were now moving very fast and he was completely out of his control.

After thinking about it for a while, he realized that it was the powder that the wizard had just sprinkled that was taking effect.

At this time, Brad, who was running, seemed to see a tree smiling.

Hehehe~

At first he thought he was seeing things, until he heard the sinister laughter, and then he was sure that the trees were really laughing.

On the dry bark, there were strange smiling faces, and branches stretched out to stop the two people who were running wildly.

Odysseus in front did not slow down and sprinkled a handful of iron-black powder. The powder drifted in the air, emitting a rust-like smell.

The surrounding trees seemed to be afraid of the powder and screamed and moved away.

Odysseus grabbed handfuls of powder in front and finally broke through the obstruction of the trees.

At the same time, Brad felt that his legs were not moving as fast as before. The power of the white powder was weakening. He felt a chill on his back. Looking back, he saw that the corpse behind him was catching up and was not far away from him.

Brad was horrified, and felt that he had regained his strength, so he ran as fast as he could.

At this moment, someone in front suddenly shouted: "Get down!"

Before Brad could react, Mr. Wizard grabbed his collar and threw him to the ground.

Da da da da da~

The sound of machine guns rang out from the bottom of the mountain. Purification bullets with flames were shot at the corpses. The bodies that were hit fell to the ground motionless, becoming real corpses.

The undead that Brad couldn't see were also shattered by the purification bullets.

In just a few seconds, the pursuers behind had fallen to the ground one after another.

Odysseus sat on the ground, leaning against the tree trunk and laughed: "This is the first time I feel that the sound of gunfire is so pleasant!

"Don't worry about us, go to the top of the mountain quickly, don't let that guy escape!"

Brad saw dark shadows rushing up the mountain. He lay on the ground and smiled.

Although he didn't know who those people were, he knew that Mr. Wizard's reinforcements had arrived.

Odysseus shouted at the backs, "Be careful! In addition to being a 'Pleasure Witch', she also has some very strange abilities!"

The dark shadows had disappeared into the woods, and it was unknown whether they had heard it or not.

At this time, two more figures emerged from the woods, and one of them asked, "Are you injured?"

These are two low-sequence "Mechanical Heart" team members who are responsible for taking care of the wounded.

"No." Odysseus said, "But this lord is exhausted. Do you have any potion to restore his strength?"

"have."

Brad was fed a small bottle of cold medicine without knowing what was happening. Soon, he felt that he had regained some strength and returned to the castle with the help of a member of the "Mechanical Heart" team.

At this time, the only servants left in the castle were the sleeping coachman and Brad's personal valet, because they had to follow Brad back to Backlund to avoid the fate of being affected by Eleanor.

Two or three hours later, the Mechanical Heart and the Nighthawk also returned to the castle. They caught up with Eleanor and injured her, but she still escaped.

She did have very strange abilities, and all the undead and corpses on the entire mountain seemed to be under her control.

And she can also drain the life out of others, which makes her very difficult to deal with.

A "Mechanical Heart" team and a "Nighthawks" team were unable to kill her.

The servants of the castle rescued some of them. Many of them were affected by the power of "charm" and did not die.

It's not that Eleanor was kind-hearted and didn't kill them, but she wanted to keep these people and take their lives when necessary.

Odysseus asked his old friend Max: "Her strange abilities come from a sealed object?"

Max shook his head and said, "This is a bit like the power that comes from believing in evil gods that appeared in some reports. It is said that belief in certain evil gods can allow extraordinary people to have some strange abilities, while not affecting their ability to use their own extraordinary abilities."

He looked at the long beard on Odysseus's face and wanted to ask him what he was doing, but in the end he did not open his mouth.

Odysseus nodded, thinking back to the strange and disturbing symbol in the center of the altar. This was an area that felt unfamiliar to him.

Afterwards, the "Mechanical Heart" withdrew overnight and handed the place over to the "Night Watchers" team. At the same time, the case was also the responsibility of the "Night Watchers". However, the "Mechanical Heart" had participated in the investigation after all. According to convention, when the case is closed, the investigation results must be reported to the "Mechanical Heart".

Everyone first took Brad's carriage to the landslide site, then walked through it, and then took the "Mechanical Heart" carriage to leave.

When the carriage arrived at the Rose Street, Brad expressed his sincere gratitude: "Mr. Wizard, thank you very much for your help. Without you, I..."

Odysseus waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. It is the responsibility of every wizard to punish evil Beyonders."

Of course, the promised reward must not be less, otherwise Odysseus will send the bill to the lord's mansion.

In fact, if Odysseus had not suddenly appeared, Brad could still have been entangled with Eleanor for a while, but in that case, Brad's spirit might have suffered irreparable damage.

Even now, Brad should have some mental problems. Odysseus has secretly told the "Night Watcher" about this matter. The "Night Watcher" said that he would send someone to visit Brad and have a good "chat" with him.

When he returned to his residence, it was already past three in the morning. As Odysseus had not eaten dinner, he made himself some noodles as a midnight snack. Then he simply washed up and used his ability of "meditation" to fall asleep.

In a daze, he had a dream.

Odysseus dreamed that he returned to the village consisting of a cemetery on the top of the mountain. Brad came back with him. The two of them stood in front of the straw hut, staring at the strange symbols on the altar in a daze.

The strange symbol suddenly moved, like an octopus, and pounced towards Odysseus...

Huh~

Odysseus woke up from his sleep and saw the light outside the window. It was already morning.

He took a deep breath and carefully checked his spiritual body with his spiritual power. Everything was normal.

Odysseus guessed that his mind might have been affected by the symbol, but this influence would disappear on its own in a day or two.

Then Odysseus realized that the evil god that Eleanor believed in seemed to be more terrifying than evil gods like the "True Creator". He was affected just by taking a look at the symbol.

Ding-ling, ding-ling~

When Odysseus arrived on the first floor and had just made himself a cup of coffee, he heard the doorbell ring.

In order to maintain his image as a wizard, Odysseus had to hide the coffee in the cupboard and went to the front to open the door.

Outside the door was a middle-aged man who looked like a butler. He claimed to be Lord Brad Rick's butler and brought Odysseus the previously agreed upon reward.

As he spoke, the other party handed over a thick envelope. Odysseus opened it and saw a thick stack of 10-pound notes inside.

He did a quick count: "200 pounds more than what we negotiated."

The butler took off his hat and said, "The lord said that the extra money is his gratitude to you. Please accept it."

Odysseus thought to himself: This guy is really rich!

"Thank the lord for me." Odysseus smiled. Of course he would accept such money with pleasure. After all, when he knew that he was no match for Eleanor, even in such a critical situation, he did not abandon this burden.

The butler didn't even sit down. After Odysseus counted the money, he left immediately.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

Odysseus put the money away. At this time, his savings had reached 8,000 pounds, which made him one of the relatively wealthy people even in Backlund.

Unfortunately, he is still a long way from purchasing the sealed item with the ability to "travel".

He planned to earn more than a thousand pounds at the tarot club in the afternoon. If he saved up little by little, he should be able to save up 12,000 pounds by the end of the year.

At that time, Bernadette could be asked to advance part of the money and complete the transaction with the "travel" ability first.

Odysseus sat on the sofa again, reading a book while waiting for customers.

There were no new customers the whole morning. In the afternoon, Odysseus locked the door early from the inside, went to the bedroom on the second floor and took a nap.

The spiritual reminder woke him up at around three o'clock. As soon as he was a little more awake, his eyes were covered by gray fog and he instantly arrived in the Giant Hall.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool." Audrey "Justice" greeted all members as usual, while observing the other members.

"Little Sun" was emotionally stable, and it was obvious that nothing too urgent had happened in "God's Forsaken Land". Other members were the same as usual. "The Hanged Man" was calm and steady, "The World" and "The Hermit" hid their expressions and body movements well, and "The Magician" still looked a little lazy.

The greeting session was over. No one had sacrificed Roselle's diary this week, so they went straight to the Tarot Club's transaction session.

Odysseus was still the first to say, "I sell a magical item."

Klein the Fool was stunned: Selling another magical item? Didn't he sell one last week?

Alger the Hanged Man was also wondering: Is it still last week's loot? Or is there an organization behind the Hermit that started selling magical items through his channels in the Tarot Club?

Odysseus didn't know what the other members were thinking, so he continued, "That magical item corresponds to Sequence 9 of the Thief's pathway.

"The ability is that it can enhance the wearer's agility and give them superb stealing skills.

"The negative effect is that it becomes difficult to suppress the urge to steal.

"Anyone willing?"

This dagger was seized from the fighting arena before and has been kept in the "Wild Knowledge", so it cannot be used in Backlund.

Alger asked, "How much do you plan to sell it for?"

"350 pounds."

Alger said readily, "I want it."

In the extraordinary world, magical items are very popular. Alger, who has abundant channels, still plans to resell them. Compared with the magical items from last week, this order will make less money, but it should be no problem to make thirty or forty pounds.

He added, "And sell me the extraordinary weapon you mentioned last time. I have found a buyer for you, but the price is 280 pounds. Are you willing to buy it?"

Odysseus nodded immediately and said, "Yes."

Although it is slightly lower than the market price, it is acceptable to Odysseus.

After completing the first transaction very happily, Magician Fors proposed a new transaction: "Mr. Fool, I hope to trade the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Sheriff' from your Follower."

Xio still hadn't saved enough money, but Fors had become Dorian's student at this time, and her teacher said that she could help her provide the main ingredients for the potion, so Fors planned to help Xio buy the extraordinary characteristics first.

Klein the Fool nodded calmly: "Okay."

Although he was very happy in his heart, he couldn't say much. After all, the "Fool" couldn't pay attention to such "small" transactions.

The hall was silent for a few seconds. After making sure that Mr. Fool had nothing else to say, Alger said to Odysseus, "Can we trade information about the elves and the Elf King?"

Although 1,000 pounds was not a small sum, Alger felt that it was well worth the money. After all, this kind of information was in short supply, and most of the time it was difficult to trade for it even if one had gold pounds.

Audrey immediately said, "I am willing to pay 300 pounds and join this transaction."

Of course, Alger was very happy to have someone to share the expenses with: "Okay."

The other three members also expressed their willingness to join the transaction. Fors still used chapters from "Spiritual World Insights", "The Sun" Derrick still used ancient myths, and "The World" still used mystical knowledge.

Alger said: "Yes, but the knowledge and stories I have heard do not count."

He knew very well that this knowledge was also very valuable, and if he met some people who were in urgent need of this knowledge, he could sell it for two or three hundred pounds.

After discussing how to trade, everyone looked at Odysseus.

Odysseus said: "To make it easier to understand, I first want to tell you about the concept of ancient gods.

"Before the Seven Gods, there were some other gods. We generally call those gods the Ancient Gods
