The sweet smell floating in the air gradually dissipated.
It was an aroma that reminded Paul of lychees, burning rosin and warm rose wine.
When he gradually woke up from that psychedelic state, he only felt that the surface of his body was extremely hot, as if he had a fever... In contrast, his body was like that He is so weak and his will is so clear.
His first reaction was to roll up his sleeves and look at his forearm.
The hickey that had been there for many years has disappeared without a trace.
——This symbolizes that the enchanting curse lingering in his body like a nightmare has now disappeared.
He is not an escaped blood slave...in fact, he is still under the control of his master.
It is precisely because of this that his enchantment curse is actively suppressed - that is exactly his master's method.
The eldest lady was curled up quietly in the corner of the sofa, holding the glass of sherbet with a high alcohol content and sucking on it.
The bright red shining in the depths of her pupils became more and more obvious, making her look even more charming.
She was obviously in a tipsy state... However, the strange, succubus-like and irresistible charm of her body dissipated instead.
"Have you calmed down?"
The young lady made a voice as lazy as a cat, and looked at herself from a distance with eyes that were obviously drunk.
And Paul was a little confused: "You...won't you suck my blood?"
Even if he saw the Moon Child too many times, he could not help but feel an almost indescribable feeling in his heart. There is a possibility - maybe, the child of this moon is a good person?
However, the other party's words immediately broke his wish.
"Why, do you really want me to suck your blood?"
But she sneered and raved: "I'm sorry, I still don't care about the appearance of food. Very picky. At least it must be at the level of the Eternal Saint - or His Majesty the Pope."
Of course, no one would think that she is "at the level of the Eternal Saint or the Eternal Pope." It's really those two people he's referring to.
The implication is that he thinks he is ugly...
Paul felt a little surprised at first - after all, his master still liked him quite a lot. When he was seven or eight years old, he would even be shared with guests in a ostentatious manner by his host. At that time, he was often anemic, so his owner would prepare a lot of rich and nutritious food for him.
But Paul immediately felt relaxed and enlightened, as well as a touch of regret flashing through his heart.
This is the Moon Child I am familiar with.
As expected, it is impossible for there to be any good people among the Children of the Moon...
But at this moment, the light words of the young lady with long black hair made him... He was immediately shocked——
"Although in the charmed state, you should be able to behaveBe obedient...but out of respect for your personality, I decided to wait until you regain your senses before I ask you any questions. "
She said so seriously: "It's best to honestly say everything you need to say, and don't waste everyone's time. You've already experienced my powers of seduction, so it's best not to expect yourself to be able to resist the feeling. ”
——Respect for personality?
For a moment, Paul thought he had heard wrong.
But when he looked at the other party’s serious expression, he felt It didn't feel like she was lying, and she had indeed controlled them both... If she really wanted to ask something, there was no need to wait until they were completely out of control before asking. The waiting time was already enough for her. After asking for information, he threw them out of the window.
... Could they be the rare Sons of the Moon?
Paul subconsciously glanced at them. Dimitar regained consciousness and was holding his forehead and gasping for air. He asked softly: "Are you okay? "
"I just said she was a good person——"
The first words Dimit said after he recovered made Paul couldn't help but cover his forehead with his hands.
...But that's okay. They can't resist each other anyway, which makes them look stupider, and maybe they have a chance to survive.
Paul is different from Dimit. His knowledge is even higher than that of many nobles.
It is precisely because Paul has experienced the "enchantment" lock of the fourth-level Moon Son... that he can clearly distinguish this kind of thing. The level of charm ability has far exceeded the fourth level - there is no doubt that it is the power of the fifth level.
This means that even if the other party is not. The strong man at the fifth level... is at least closely related to the strong man at the fifth level. No matter what the specific answer is, the other party is not something that a homeless stray dog like him can deal with.
"Your will. "
Paul put his right hand on his chest, stepped back slightly with his left foot, and bowed slightly: "I will answer everything I know, miss. ”
He gave the eldest lady, whose full name was still unknown, an imperial salute that is quite popular among the Moon Children.
Sure enough, the other party’s attitude improved significantly. .
“You can call me Miss Crawley. "
Aleister introduced himself thoughtfully, confirming the information that Paul had overheard.
After that, "Miss Crawley" asked directly : "What is that chronic toxin that can transform living things into undead? You both talk and complement each other. ”
“It’s a magic potion for the twilight path, invented by Professor Laxmi! "
Dimit responded: "But I remember it has been banned..."
"——It's called a 'noose'. ”
Paul gave a more precise statement: “It was not destroyed because the Admiralty thought it might have war value."
"...What? "
Dimit was stunned for a moment and looked at Paul in disbelief: "That's not what you told me! "
"Because if I tell you, you will definitely not be able to help saying it. "
Paul replied calmly: "So the professor specially told me about this and asked me not to tell you about the experiment. Because he doesn’t want you to be our ‘anatomy assistant’. "
He looked at the gray-haired boy scratching his head and acquiescing. Paul also shook his head slightly helplessly.
You should deny it...
p>“—anatomy assistant? "
Aleister straightened up with interest and asked curiously: "What is that? ”
“In the Ziggurat, the ‘teaching assistant’ is actually a teaching aid. Punishments usually used by professors to punish students for not turning in homework. Because necromancy is usually used on dead people, but dead people cannot speak, so if living people can withstand necromancy and give feedback, other students can have a deeper understanding of the mystery of necromancy. ”
Paul explained: “In terms of anatomy... it means completely dissecting oneself under the supervision of the professor. This process also involves constantly explaining each part to other students... Of course, in the end, the professor will put the students back together. But I have also heard of a fool who killed himself - the professor was a venomous person, and when he cursed, the students would get flustered and didn't know what to do, and finally killed themselves on the spot.
"Among the 'Top Ten Unlucky Guys' who died last year, he died in the stupidest way."
"I'm not afraid of pain..."
< p> Dimit emphasized this point first, as if he didn’t want Aleister to look down on him.Then he was silly and happy, and said with a smile: "But I have completely forgotten the class last semester!"
...I don't know why he is so happy.
Paul sighed helplessly.
He and Dimit are of the same age. It's just that their previous living environment was completely different.
Although Dimit is also a second-level transcendent... his profession is that of a "thief" who can be seen everywhere on the streets.
His best skill is stealing. Sneaking, stealing, lock-picking - the reason why he got to know Paul, who was a top student, was that during one of his thefts, he met Paul who also came to steal things, but was almost discovered by his clumsiness.
As a necromancer of the Dusk Path, Dimit has not even touched the first level yet. However, he has a cheerful personality, and as a second-level transcendent who is adapted to the path, he is very dexterous, and at the same time, he is stronger than most necromancers. Therefore, he was also captured by his mentor as a coolie - his main responsibilities were cleaning and carrying things.
Unlike Dimit, Paul is a fraudster at the second level of the path of love - if his master hadn't been there all the time,By absorbing the essence of his blood and preventing him from being promoted prematurely, Paul has already entered the third level.
Because before he came into contact with necromancy, he had already reached the limit of the second level of the path of love.
That was three years ago.
There is no doubt that his master is not just cultivating him as a blood bag - not only teaching him the common sense of aristocratic society, cultivating his various abilities and teaching him all kinds of knowledge...< /p>
This is all because Paul, who is also on the path of love, also has the possibility of being transformed into the path of love.
In order to be able to complete the transformation independently, Paul's path energy level must be lower than that of his master.
She hoped that Paul could be transformed when he was at his most youthful and energetic age of twenty, so she allowed him to go to school-if he was promoted to the third level at the age of fourteen, it would really be possible. A very young person may reach the fourth level before the age of twenty.
——In that case, Paul would not be her "son" but could only be her "brother."
The three years of studying in the Ziggurat made Paul become a second-level necromancer.
Considering that he is still under eighteen years old, he is already considered to have outstanding talents.
Paul's current mentor, Professor Laxmi, relied on this reason to take Paul over from his master - since he can no longer move forward on the path of love, then why not Let’s take a walk first to see the road at dusk.
Since Aleister asked him to say everything he needed to say, he did not hide it and said all these things to Aleister and Dimit.
As it happens, Dimit must have doubts in his heart. Why not take this opportunity to clarify his doubts.
Normally, due to the order of his master, he cannot reveal his identity to others - but his master also has another order, which is to surrender directly if he encounters an irresistible enemy.
If the other person wants to ask something, just answer it. If the other person wants something, give it to him. Show kindness to powerful enemies as much as possible, and never engage in any form of head-on confrontation - even if the other party asks for information about yourself, give it to him directly.
"...What an interesting lady."
The corners of Aleister's mouth raised slightly.
She has never seen an enemy in Avalon who knows this level.
She has seen those who told their subordinates to fight the enemy to the death, and those who told their subordinates to keep absolutely secret or never betray... But this was the first time she saw this kind of "seeing someone who is better than you" The enemy surrenders immediately and can betray at any time."
But this can be considered a kind of wisdom.
For those who are passionate about the path of love, if they don’t hold on for the sake of face, they can effectively avoid provoking people they can’t afford to offend.
So Aleister asked: "Then if I want to ask you...about her weaknesses? You will also tell me directly.? ”
“The master never told me about that kind of thing. ”
Paul said calmly: “My master made in-depth contact with me on the assumption that I would ‘definitely betray’ in the future. To this day, I don't know her real name - she said she would tell me everything when I become a moon child. "
"What about her appearance? There's no way she's wearing a mask to suck your blood, right? ”
This sentence was not asked by Aleister, but by Dimitri.
And Paul had already guessed that they would ask this question, so he directly Answered: "The master has the ability to change her appearance, so she looks different every time she comes to see me. All I know is that she seems to be at the fourth level... But even the mentor respects her very much.
"I remember my mentor called her...blood coral."
Following his master's orders, Paul sold his master without hesitation.
"...blood coral."
Aleister raised his eyebrows in surprise.
She really knows this code name.
This is one of the many daughters and lovers of "Red Phase", and is closely related to "Blood Diamond" who contacted Minister Drost... It is said that the two of them are still sisters.
Aleister thought for a moment and took this piece of information to heart.
She continued to ask: "Tell me about that magic potion called 'noose' - who is your professor, and why did he scatter this potion in the high seas? Why did the Navy Department Do you think this medicine has special significance?"
"This medicine can transform people into a 'living corpse' state similar to the undead... It was originally invented as a 'preservation agent' , even if taken in normal doses, it will be excreted by the body, so it is a very safe preservative. If it is applied to a corpse, it can keep the corpse fresh for a long time. It was not until much later that it was discovered that it only needs to increase the concentration. , it can be used as a special and quite hidden chronic poison."
Paul is indeed an excellent student. He answered smoothly without hesitation: "When poisoned, the poisoned person will gradually feel worse. The suffocation becomes stronger and stronger. Therefore, its name as a poison is "noose" - if the poison continues to accumulate, the mind will gradually become sluggish. In this state, people will become stupid and irritable... and at this time. The children born are also 'quiet children' who are naturally poisoned.
"Because this medicine is too hidden and easy to obtain... many students will secretly sell the medicine, purify it themselves, and sell it outside. The Ziggurat forbids the synthesis of this poison. Later, there was another centralized destruction of poisons, and this year the preservatives used as raw materials will also be completely banned... Now we are using formalin again, which was the invention of the formalin director a long time ago.
"The military research project wants us to study - if trace amounts of this non-purified 'non-toxic preservative' are dispersed and fed to marine organisms, and then Landing on the seaMarine organisms prey on each other, and whether they will be enriched and purified spontaneously. If possible, they can be used as a concealed, undetectable weapon..."
Hearing Paul's words, Aleister narrowed his eyes slightly and his expression became serious.
p>
A cold light flashed in her eyes, which made Paul shudder and suddenly stopped narrating.
“What about your master? "
She opened her mouth and asked slowly and in a frighteningly calm tone: "In what capacity did she join this experiment? "
"...My master, she has provided the ship tickets and our mission to go here.
"But what she really wants is Professor Laxmi's handle."
Paul replied in a low voice.
