"OK." Hearing Dunn's proposal, Leonard replied with a relaxed expression.
Next, he and Klein and others walked out of the warehouse and approached the area where the monster Bib "exploded", using that as the center, and searched outward in circles.
"Captain, what exactly are we looking for?" Klein looked at the scattered rotten flesh and managed to suppress the urge to feel sick, looking at Dunn and Smith beside him with confusion.
Dunn didn't look up and still scanned the ground with his deep gray eyes:
"Awakening earlier, losing control, turning into a monster, means that Rael Bibber did not fully absorb the extraordinary power provided by the notes. This also indicates that a certain part of his body will accumulate extraordinary power and become a higher-quality material."
"If you encounter something similar in the future, don't miss it. That might be a very important 'item'."
So, huh... Klein nodded slightly with a clear understanding.
In an instant, he thought of another thing:
If the part where the monster Bibber accumulates extraordinary power is some place that cannot be described, wouldn't that be very embarrassing... and in the future when preparing potions, wouldn't it be very disgusting...
Just as Klein's thoughts were wandering, the sharp-eyed Borgia suddenly spoke:
"We found it, cough."
Dunn and El immediately turned around and approached, and Klein, driven by curiosity, also hurriedly headed towards Borgia.
Soon, he saw what was in front of Borgia, it was a gray-white mass the size of a fist, covered with grooves, overall soft and textured, as if it was a living brain taken out.
Although Klein couldn't immediately see the extraordinary power of this "gray-white" mass, just from the fact that he could remain intact in a violent explosion, he was certain that Borgia hadn't missed the item.
Dunn carefully examined it, crouched down, and while flexing his right arm, used his black-gloved left hand to carefully pick up the gray-white mass.
As soon as it was touched, the "gray-white" immediately spread outwards, turning into a continuous viscous liquid.
At that moment, El Hassen took out a tin-colored square box from his pocket, took out one cigarette at a time, and put them in his pocket.
Immediately after that, he handed the square iron box to Dunn, smiling and saying:
"I know, you only like pipes."
Dunn "harrumphed", took the square iron box, carefully poured the "gray-white" and viscous liquid into it, for temporary storage.
After putting away this item, he and Lorcata and others roughly searched the scene again.
After confirming there were no major omissions, they left here and came outside, seeing the horses frantically digging in the ground, almost breaking free from the ropes.
"I can drive," Borgia pressed his lips together and coughed lightly.
"I know, you're good at calming animals," El smiled and nodded.
On the horse, maintaining the "flexing motion", Dunn, Lorcata, El Hassen, and Klein were briefly silent, lost in silence.
When the horse hooves made a sound and the wheels rolled, Dunn looked at Klein and deliberated before speaking:
"I know, you must be very curious about the Antigonus family's notes and want to figure out what happened in the past."
No, not at all... Klein subconsciously denied in his heart.
That was an ancient item full of misfortune!
Without giving him time to reply, Dunn continued on his own:
"However, I must first inform the Sanctuary about this matter. Once they confirm the confidentiality level of the notes, we can consider whether to let you view it."
"No problem." Klein replied briefly.
Dunn flexed his arms, thought for a moment, and said:
"I once promised that once it was confirmed that Rael Bibber was a descendant of the Antigonus family, you would become a full member of the night watch. Now, not only have we confirmed Rael Bibber's identity, but we have also eliminated this monster and thwarted the conspiracy of the Priests of the Secret Order." "During this process, you performed extremely well and personally killed a member of the evil organization. Therefore, I will fulfill my promise and immediately apply to the Sanctuary, awaiting their approval."
"By the way, I forgot an important thing. I haven't asked if you are willing."
"Mr. Klein Moretti, are you willing to officially join the Tingen City Night Watch team and become one of us? Your salary will be doubled immediately to the level of £6 per week, and there will be a certain degree of increase each year in the future."
"Your salary will be borne by both the Church and the Ahova County Police Department equally. You will also obtain the status of an apprentice inspector, which will be very useful at certain times."
"As an auxiliary exceptionalist, you don't always have to face enemies, but you need to take turns guarding the Charnis Gate every week..."
"Without the approval of the team, you cannot leave Tingen under any pretext and try to keep it a secret from your family..." ...
When Dunn finished talking about restrictions and benefits, Klein thought for about ten seconds before saying:
"I hope to become a formal night watchman."
Only in this way can I have more access to the hidden things, such as the situation of the Secret Society!
-- After reading the previously collected Rosell diary, Klein improved his own ideas: mastering esoteric knowledge and finding a way home were his unchanging pursuits, and further enhancing his own power to more safely pry into the mysterious space above the gray fog, thereby using it to return to his homeland, was a new added goal.
Just as Emperor Rosell said, relying solely on external forces is very dangerous!
Moreover, becoming a "diviner" and obtaining extraordinary power, Klein also noticed that he had a deeper understanding of that mysterious space. For example, he could bring another member to join the gathering.
This forced him to think that when he became an extraordinary person of sequence 8, sequence 7, or even higher, would there be more favorable changes in the mysterious space above the gray fog.
Of course, Klein was very clear that the prerequisite was that he first completely solved the hidden danger of the "diviner" potion. He couldn't be hasty or rash.
"Good, when the Sanctuary gives the approval, you will be one of us," Dunn's grey eyes showed a hint of smile.
Just then, El Hassen, who had been listening in silence, interrupted and said:
"Klein, call me Klein, your performance today was really excellent. You were able to kill an extraordinary member of the Secret Society. And I suspect he reached sequence 7. How did you do it? I simply can't believe it."
This question indeed came... Klein had prepared in advance to make a plan for organizing his words.
He knew that killing an extraordinary member who could interact with Dunn, El, and Loretta was truly incredible and full of mysteries. El and their team, as long as their eyes weren't blind and their minds weren't stupid, would eventually ask about the process, but he didn't expect that they actually waited until now to speak.
It's true, the captain and Mr. Hassen had been injured before, and the situation could deteriorate at any time. At this time, any matter that could intensify the conflict must be suppressed first, to avoid being reckless due to the "secret" being exposed... When he expressed his attitude and was willing to officially join the night watchmen, they finally let go of their concerns and asked... They were all "old hands", obviously there was no communication between each other, but they made the same decision in a tacit way... Klein thought to himself and said:
"This is a very fortunate thing. The little man in the tailcoat made a fatal judgment error."
"At that time, the sealing object '2-049' was thrown by the explosion's aftershock to my vicinity, about five or six meters away from me. Just a rough observation, it was easy to come to the conclusion that I was within the influence range of the sealing object."
"And at that time, I was affected by the explosion, my head was dizzy, and my movements were slow, looking exactly like being controlled."
"The little man in the tailcoat somehow appeared invisible and came near me, using to rescue me and give me the 'diviner' potion corresponding to sequence 8 'clown' to lure me, asking me to help get the notes of the Antigonus family. Yes, he said the Secret Society had the sequence path corresponding to the 'diviner' potion, and that he himself had once been a 'diviner'." ...
Klein recounted the situation at that time in detail, even describing his inner reasoning in a systematic way, including the incident where he thought the tailcoat clown's divination indicated a high risk of taking away the notes, thus changing the strategy.
Of course, all the true facts were used to cover up the first lie, to hide the fact that he had been controlled by the sealed object "2-049".
"Did the divination indicate a high risk of taking away the notes? Yes, there was indeed a high risk, but this risk was actually with you." The blonde lady Lorrata covered her mouth and smiled slightly, "His divination was correct, but it actually led him into a fatal danger. This is really an interesting thing."
Klein was stunned for a moment and nodded vigorously:
"Indeed, divinations are never overly clear, and ambiguity means the interpretation might be wrong."
Well, I must pay attention to this!
"Then, how did you deal with him?" Dunn stretched out his arm and leaned back slightly.
Klein smiled and said:
"I pretended to agree with him, asking him to wake me up, but he was afraid to enter the influence range of the sealed object, about two or three meters away, using strange pieces of paper to try to push me."
"Taking advantage of this opportunity, I grabbed the piece of paper and pulled him towards the influence range of '2-049', and coordinated with continuous shooting to achieve the goal. Ha, this is something that makes me ashamed. At that time, I actually didn't have the confidence to hit him within two or three meters."
El gently nodded:
"Given his evasion ability, two or three meters is not an absolutely safe distance. You might be able to hit him, but you can't hit the vital spot. Then the matter becomes troublesome... Your choice was not wrong at all, and it can even be called excellent. If it were me, I wouldn't necessarily do better than you."
He didn't ask about the subsequent events because the outcome of the tailcoat clown, who was under the control of the sealed object "2-049", was already predetermined. It was just a live target.
"The sequel of 'Diviner' is 'Clown'... How strange... " Dunn suddenly exclaimed beside him.
