After silently summarizing the rules of playing the hunter alone, Lin Ruo, who had already decided to advance to Provoker tonight, began to reflect on what had happened before.
There's no need to mention reasons like arrogance and carelessness. Lin Ruo mainly rethought the positions and styles of many great beings in the world of mysteries, reminding himself never to underestimate anyone or ignore any great being. After that, he began to think about another matter.
In the eyes of the Evernight Goddess, Adam, and even the True Creator, what kind of chess piece is he?
What do They want to seek from him... Could this be related to his lost memories...?
Although he felt very uncomfortable, Lin Ruo had to admit that, at least so far, these three great beings had not shown him any malice, and even vaguely revealed goodwill.
There's no need to say more about the Evernight Goddess, she directly arranged a Blessed. As for Adam... Although His calculations and arrangements this time made Lin Ruo feel frustrated, looking back on everything, He didn't actually disrupt Lin Ruo's overall plan. The only mystery was probably pulling Ouroboros over, but Adam sent Ouroboros away himself, and even reminded him to be careful of the Demoness, which could be regarded as showing goodwill.
As for the True Creator, it was Lin Ruo's speculation.
—The two Truths related to Mr. A that took effect without much consumption before, the strange attitude of the evil god's spawn before being interfered with by Adam, and Ouroboros' seemingly non-malicious attitude during this meeting... All these details, when pieced together, made Lin Ruo have to speculate.
Lin Ruo even suspected that he could successfully apply to join the Aurora Order now.
However, he didn't want to sacrifice his intelligence and become a stupid beauty.
Moreover, he couldn't accept the Aurora Order's style of doing things... Tsk, a headache!
So, what exactly do They want...?
Lin Ruo thought for a while, considered several possibilities one by one, and then pinched his chin, thinking of Adam's previous reminder.
"Be careful of the Witch... Is it because of similar sequences?"
"No, it shouldn't be such a simple reason... Could it be the mess I made before I lost my memory?"
"Speaking of which, if I really lost my memory, and may have had contact with big shots like Azik before losing my memory, would I also leave traces in history?" Lin Ruo suddenly thought of a possibility, his eyes flickering.
"Moreover, my style itself is not the kind of person who would live a plain life... I'll check the historical records later."
His hand inadvertently pinched the Concealment Badge worn on his chest, without saying the last possibility.
Perhaps he had indeed left traces, but it was also possible that these traces could no longer be found...
"Um, I almost forgot about this..." After a moment of silence, Lin Ruo thought of something again and took out the Beyonder item left by Ince Zangwill.
He hadn't looked at it carefully before, but now, after careful observation, Lin Ruo realized that the thing left by Ince Zangwill seemed to be a product of the combination of his characteristic and a handkerchief.
Now, because of Azik's seal, it was quiet, but Lin Ruo still remembered the handkerchief's ferocious appearance before. Obviously, this thing had the nature of being alive.
Lin Ruo then simulated the Sequence 5 of the Seer pathway and began to carefully divine the ability and side effects of this Beyonder item.
"The holder can directly see and communicate with the dead, can be used as a container to hold evil spirits, and can summon undead creatures from the underworld to a limited extent..."
"It has the characteristic of being alive, will praise the Evernight Goddess from time to time, the holder is more likely to attract the attention of undead creatures, each use will transform the user, making the user's body develop towards undead creatures, and it is irreversible... Uh, hates me?"
Lin Ruo suddenly paused slightly, he found that this handkerchief left by Ince Zangwill seemed to be like the Hunger that began to hate mushrooms and fear mushrooms after merging with Mr. A in the original book, it feared him, hated him.
"I can't use this... Could it be used to knock it around by using its living characteristics?" Lin Ruo thought, "But it's not very useful to me, and there are side effects that will transform me into an undead creature..."
In Lin Ruo's situation, this handkerchief left by Ince Zangwill was indeed not very useful to him. If he wanted to communicate with the dead or summon undead creatures, he could directly simulate the abilities of the Gatekeeper, which would be more comprehensive. Containing evil spirits was somewhat useful, but he didn't need to contain any evil spirits for the time being.
And most importantly, the side effects of this handkerchief were something Lin Ruo couldn't accept. He hadn't reached the point of not being human.
"So... I should just sell it for money!" Lin Ruo finally made a decision. There was no need to keep unnecessary mystical items, it was better to sell them for pounds.
Having made a decision, Lin Ruo put the handkerchief away again, stood up, stretched first, and walked out of the lounge.
After walking out of the lounge, the first thing he saw was Klein, who was holding a Jotun textbook and reading, but it was obvious that he was not concentrating and seemed a little distracted.
Leonard was lying on the only intact sofa sleeping, and he didn't seem to be sleeping very peacefully.
Dunn was in the corner talking softly with a strange lady.
The lady was wearing a hooded black robe, with blue eyeshadow and blush, and her exposed wrist was wrapped with a silver chain with a white crystal pendant. This distinct feature instantly reminded Lin Ruo of a name—Daly.
"Spirit Medium" Daly, secretly in love with Captain Dunn, and also the object of the captain's secret love.
To tell the story of these two people, it was completely a two-way secret love, but because of each other's inferiority complex, they ended up with a bad ending, which was a great regret for Lin Ruo when he read the book back then.
From the expressions of the two, Lin Ruo could roughly see that Daly seemed to be angry and had been lecturing Dunn, while Dunn was obediently standing there being lectured.
Perhaps the two of them still hadn't broken through that layer of window paper, but the atmosphere that prevented others from interfering was enough to make single dogs cry.
Tsk, I suggest getting married!
Lin Ruo shook his head, feeling that he had been stuffed with a mouthful of dog food, and the others finally noticed him.
"Blessed, you're awake." Dunn was the first to notice Lin Ruo, and asked worriedly, "How's your body?"
"I'm fine now." Lin Ruo smiled, nodded to Daly, and asked seriously, "Girlfriend?"
Dunn was stunned, his whole body seemed to stiffen. His face didn't turn red, but Lin Ruo noticed that Dunn's ears seemed to be a little red.
Ah, this... Should I say it's pure love as expected?
"No, no, Daly and I are just ordinary friends..." Dunn then explained in a panic, no longer as calm as usual, but when he said ordinary friends, his eyes were a little dim, "...just ordinary friends."
Daly, who had a similar reaction to him just now, was a little uncomfortable at first. Hearing this, her expression dimmed, but then she seemed to think of something, grabbed Dunn's hand, raised her chin with a very aggressive aura, and said, "That's right, I'm his girlfriend!"
"Sir Blessed, I didn't expect you to see it."
Dunn was dumbfounded, staring blankly at Daly.
Daly seemed to have made up her mind, or rather, the attack by the spawn of the evil god that the Blackthorn Security Company encountered this time gave her enough stimulation, making her not want to endure anymore, afraid that if she didn't say it, she would never have a chance.
Daly looked at Dunn. She was always a master at driving, but at this moment, she was no longer as calm as usual, nor did she have the aggressive aura just now. Instead, she looked like a girl who had just fallen in love, nervous, apprehensive, yet expectant.
"Dunn, I like you!"
Dunn and Daly confess, let's celebrate!
