Chapter 138 Barton and Drost

When Barton woke up, the shock that Mr. Aleister had given him still remained in his heart.

It was like a kind of sizzling and soul-stirring madness, and he could not forget it until he finished choosing the path characteristics. The three fingers stretched out by Aleister remained very clear in his mind.

The brain is shaking and the spine is tightening.

Compared to the secrets described by Wu Yun and the words that simply made him dissatisfied with the path of authoritarianism, Aleister personally showed him once what a "transcendent soul" is.

I am indeed not qualified.

Barton thought a little lostly, and his whole person became sober. Some things are not necessarily what he can do if he wants to do them. Today, he has long understood this kind of thing.

But it’s okay.

He got up from the bed, turned on the light in the room, and looked at the mirror on one side.

That was a boy who looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old.

He has peridot-green pupils and short blond hair that hangs down to his shoulders and is cut with a knife.

His hair is thin and soft, close to his scalp. It also makes his head look a bit small.

He stared at the mirror and clenched his fists slightly.

I saw blue-purple electric light crackling, flowing out from his palm and traveling quickly on his body. At this time, Barton no longer felt the slight numbness all over his body as before, and his hair no longer looked like it did. Exploded like usual.

This is the second level of lightning affinity.

This is the "key path characteristic" that his father had previously designated for Barton when he was teaching him.

Compared with the storm containers and heroic spirit that appeared at the same time, there is basically no comparison. possible.

"This is the gift Mr. Aleister left for me"

Barton murmured.

Father once told him that it was difficult to obtain good path characteristics in the first two promotion ceremonies. So you just need to choose from the twelve fairly good path characteristics he delineated.

A large part of the reason why it is a watershed from the third level to the fourth level is that good path characteristics begin to appear in the third promotion ceremony.

Interests can confuse the minds of others. A big enough benefit can drive people crazy.

Everyone wants to obtain better characteristics, and the result is that everyone strives to express themselves and complete more tasks given by the Pillar God. But precisely because of this, the pass rate may drop significantly.

So at least in Avalon, the further you get to the back, the more participants in the New Moon Ceremony will be, because teammates will hold you back anyway, and they may also backstab you.

It would be better not to have teammates from the beginning.

In the early ceremony, everyone was basically a newcomer, and they all came to get the blue path characteristics of "container" or "affinity". And as long as you pass the level, you are guaranteed to have a characteristic that suits you, so there will be no stumbling blocks for each other.

This is why Barton dared to secretlyThe confidence to participate in the ceremony.

"So," Barton murmured to himself, "Are there really many newcomers in this ceremony?"

Or is it that he should not participate in the new moon ceremony? The problem

But no matter what, the reason why he was able to obtain thunder and lightning affinity this time came from the kindness of others. He actually deserves it.

Because if they were competing equally, he would have been eliminated by Mr. Aleister. It was because of his initial words about "making an alliance" that he was spared and survived.

And this is why Barton feels ashamed.

At that time, he did not actually want to form an alliance with the devil from his heart. Barton really felt that since Antlers would seek an alliance with a newcomer like him, it meant that he must have invited others when they entered. Therefore, the words of Antlers cannot be trusted.

Barton has come into contact with many such people. During holidays, they would come to visit their father.

Many of them look gentle, cheerful and tolerant. Barton also thought that they were all good people because they would bring many expensive gifts to Barton.

But his father just patiently taught Barton, "Because I am the great guardian of Avalon, leading the country to monitor and control the entire army during war. That's why they come to please me, that's why they So nice to you.

“Their appearance may be nice, but the attitude they express is worthless. Don't look at what they say or what they do, but look at what they ultimately do. ”

But if you want to say what was done, you can’t see it until after the matter is over. Doesn’t that mean that anything anyone said may be a lie

Barton asked at the time.< /p>

But his father affirmed, "That's exactly it. ”

“Don’t believe in covenants, don’t believe in promises. The moment any contract is made, there is a possibility of it being torn up."

Witnessing how Antlers betrayed the covenant, Barton whispered to himself, "I seem to understand better now"

Compared with the "Thunder Affinity" ability he gained, the knowledge gained during this promotion ceremony was an extremely valuable asset.

At this moment, Barton suddenly heard the butler's voice. Sound.

It was three or four o'clock in the middle of the night.

He approached the door warily and put his ear to the door. Then he heard a familiar voice.

Mom is back

He suddenly panicked and ran to the ground to start a quick packing ceremony. But he had just packed up two items when he realized that he was back. It seemed like he should turn off the light in the room first.

But as soon as he turned off the light, someone opened the door to his bedroom from the outside.

The light was turned on again.

A woman with black hair, dark eyes, deep features, and a slightly larger mouth stood at the door with a frown.

“Are you still asleep, Little Apple?”

The woman frowned slightly, then looked at the ritual array in the room.

She immediately realized what her son had done. "You went to participate in the promotion ceremony."

But when she looked at Barton, her eyes widened in surprise. "You succeeded."

Hearing his mother's question, Barton immediately shrank his neck.

But he quickly realized what he was afraid of, I was successfully promoted

So Barton held his head high again and said proudly, "Yes

"I was successfully promoted during the New Moon Ceremony. It's awesome, Mom."

"Not bad. "

The woman nodded slightly in praise.

But she turned and said, "But it's time for you to sleep now, you are still growing." Ritual sleep is not enough to relax your body.

"Your room is so dirty, go sleep in your father's room. I will ask the servant to clean it up tomorrow."

Why is the reaction so dull?

Barton He pursed his lips. This was completely different from the picture he had imagined.

"Mom, I chose thunder and lightning affinity"

Barton emphasized.

"Okay."

The woman nodded.

Her abyss-like black pupils stared at Barton, "So I won't ask you about your truancy for now. Let's wait until you wake up tomorrow."

Barton suddenly shuddered. Had a chill.

So Barton sneered and wanted to change the subject, "Mom, why haven't you come home for so long?"

"The assassin hasn't been caught yet, and the Griffin Brigade will be strengthened this month. Night patrol."

The woman replied calmly.

She looked at Barton and reminded her seriously, "Don't go out at night during this period. If you have to go out, be sure to take Emily with you."

Emily is Barton. The name of the griffin he keeps.

Although she is only a teenager now, she can play more than Barton. A third-level transcendent might not be able to defeat her.

It is not so much that Patton learned the light cavalry tactics in order to cooperate with Emily in fighting, but rather in order not to hold Emily back.

"What about dad?"

Barton asked, "Dad hasn't been home for a long time."

"The matter of the giant survivors has nothing to do with you."

"But I saw a giant during this ceremony"

"That's okay. You go to bed, and when you wake up we will have a meeting to discuss your absence from class."

p>

The woman said sternly, "Your teacher wrote to me, saying that you haven't been to school for three days."

"Because I am preparing for the promotion ceremony," Barton smiled flatteringly. He said, "Do you think I was successfully promoted?"

"No need, you should take classes now. It doesn't make any sense for you to be promoted to a transcendent person now. In the end, you will have to wait for Emily to become an adult before you can enter." Step into the air cavalry and now touch the road.The power will only accumulate path impulse for oneself for no reason. But since you have successfully advanced, it is meaningless to ask again, so I will not criticize you, but I will not encourage you either. ”

“Okay, Mom. "

Barton felt a little wilted, but still nodded politely.

He also did not expect that he would not be praised for his successful promotion.

So Barton decided not to tell the secrets shared by Mr. Dark Cloud, otherwise he might still be scolded.

He also wants to have his own little secret

However, the giant remnant

Mentioning this, Barton thought of the Noble Red Society again.

He asked uneasily, "Is Mr. Sherlock really dead?"

" Hard to say. "

His mother shook her head slightly, with reservations about the matter. "If you want to know, we will invite Mr. Aiwass Moriarty to visit our home next week.

"George has something important to inform him. If he is still in the mood after hearing that, you can ask him by the way. He previously claimed that he would inherit Sherlock's investigation, so He should at least be an insider."

"What is it?" Barton asked.

"Professor Moriarty died unexpectedly last week."

The woman replied, "He did not leave a will. And Inspector General Edward was in the Inspectorate and could not inherit the family property." . In other words, the successor can only be Aiwass, or even Yulia. If Aiwass chooses to join the church after graduation, he will not be able to inherit the family property. Compared with the frail and sick Yulia, Aiwass has. Maybe he can suppress them.

"George said that someone might bully Aiwass because he is young and doesn't understand the conspiracies, so they would stumble and dig holes for him. For the professor's sake, we have to protect his adopted children. They are all the pillars of the kingdom, and cannot be touched by those young people. "

"Oh. "

Barton responded absently.

When he heard the name Aiwass, his ears almost grew calluses.

This is standard" A child from "someone else's family", he is smart, decisive and mature, kind to others, just and brave. He is also friends with his idol Sherlock Hermes

Barton was quite envious at first, but then he got used to it. Anyway No matter how powerful they are, it has nothing to do with him.

Compared with Mr. Aiwass, Barton thought to himself that he paid more attention to Mr. Aleister now.

At the same time.

On the other side, someone was paying attention to the name "Aleister"

At this moment, an old man moved out of the bed awkwardly.

The old man's belly is so big that you can't even see his feet when he stands up. The muscles in his limbs have also become loose and fat, making his head look round and huge. Like a fat seal

“Diomedes. ”

He raised his voiceroad.

After three seconds, an elf butler with a Chinese character, a serious face and some wrinkles appeared silently from the door.

"Mr. Drost, you are looking for me."

"Yes, my friend. Write two letters for me and send them before dawn."

As Minister Drost said, he handed over his seal, "Send a letter to Boca and ask him if a new person named Aleister has joined Lloyd's recently. He may not be named this." , but he is a demon who has a contract with the Shadow Demon. Give me his information and contact information.

"Send another letter to the Sheriff of Gray County, looking for a man named Aleister. young people.

"He used to study in the countryside. After finishing junior high school, he went to high school in Gray County. His parents were both believers, and his father later died, leaving him a modest fortune. Legacy. He may or may not have graduated, but he left his hometown and went climbing all over Avalon. It should be easy to find his mother’s contact information.”

"Okay, Mr. Droste."

The elf butler responded and took the seal, "I remember it. Is there a deadline for the investigation?"

"Within a month, no, half a month."

Minister Drost replied calmly, "Give them half a month, I want to get an exact reply. I don't want to get it. We tried our best." But there is no reply from Aleister. He may not have this name, and the information may be incorrect."

"I will write it in the letter. , Mr. Droste."

His elf butler replied.
