Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

Yesterday's and today's newspapers have both used a lot of space to report on the "Serial Murder Case."

First of all, the reporters helped readers sort out the entire case. Starting a few months ago, streetwalkers were constantly being disemboweled and brutally murdered.

Recently, the frequency of the murderer's crimes has become higher and higher, causing huge social panic.

Reports said that recently, a detective noticed many corpses of stray dogs and cats that had been brutally killed in the garbage dump. He associated it with the fact that the murderer must have experimented on animals before killing people, so he could disembowel them so quickly and accurately.

Following this clue, the detectives finally found the murderer and shot and killed the gangster who resisted violently during the arrest.

The attendees present already received accurate information during the last gathering that this was an extraordinary case.

Generally, when it comes to extraordinary cases, don't expect to see real reports in the newspapers.

After Odyseus announced the surprising news at the gathering, "Peacock" asked a few seconds later: "Not a human, then what is it?"

"A Transcendent Creature," Odyseus said firmly.

"Hound," who also knew this information, said with some disappointment, "I was planning to sell this news for a good price."

This is inside information that only official Transcendent beings know. "Hound" knows that the "Leader's" "behind-the-scenes boss" is the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery, so he is not surprised that the "Leader" knows this.

"Hound's" words further confirmed the information that the "Leader" had just said.

The other members fell silent again, which was completely beyond their imagination.

Even though they were wearing masks, Odyseus could observe everyone's surprise at this moment from their body movements.

After a few more seconds, "Peacock" changed his previous tone: "H-How can a Transcendent Creature hide its tracks in Backlund?"

"Wolverine," who had a deep voice, suddenly said, "Everyone, do you still remember the mission I posted before, hoping to find a friend who disappeared in the sewers?"

"He is a Transcendent, and we haven't even found his body."

Everyone was stunned again, and "Hound" belatedly said: "The sewers are indeed a good place to hide Transcendent Creatures."

In fact, the official Transcendent beings were also quite strange. How did that "Dire Wolf" avoid the repeated investigations?

At this time, after such an exchange, everyone clarified the entire process of the case.

A few months ago, a Transcendent Creature came to Backlund and brutally murdered a dozen streetwalkers. The official Transcendent beings were misled, thinking that it was a Transcendent being committing the crime, so they were never able to find any clues.

It is very likely that recently, the official Transcendent beings found clues, locked onto that Transcendent Creature, and killed it.

"Cheetah," whose voice was relatively low, asked at this time: "Can Transcendent Creatures also advance?"

In his impression, Transcendent Creatures only have one purpose: to provide Transcendent materials for Transcendent beings.

But he didn't expect that they could actually advance?

Odyseus did not answer directly, but only said: "Some Transcendent Creatures, because of the particularity of their pathways, have intelligence comparable to humans...or even higher than normal humans."

"Cheetah" exclaimed: "The wonderful Transcendent world."

Odyseus added: "The information just now is not free."

Everyone looked at the "Leader." Of course, they knew that such secret information would not be free.

"Someone is buying relics of Emperor Rosell at a high price," Odyseus said. "If you have them in your hands, or can contact such items, you can trade them to me. I guarantee the price will definitely satisfy you."

With the Steam Church reimbursing him, he would of course be very generous.

"Giraffe" slowly shook his head: "This must be the heat brought by the 'Rosell Memorial Exhibition.' Many of the Emperor's fans are buying souvenirs and relics about him."

Odyseus added: "I don't want fakes."

"Giraffe," who once claimed to be a master of antique appraisal, nodded repeatedly: "Of course, I wouldn't dare to give you fakes."

Next, everyone initiated several transactions of high-level spiritual materials. As usual, they were basically bought by Odyseus.

This gathering focuses very much on information exchange, so it rarely trades mystical medicine formulas and Transcendent materials.

After trading a few pieces of information that were not very important to Odyseus, the gathering ended.

As usual, Odyseus watched the attendees leave one by one, and then, while the waiter was tidying up the living room, he came to the basement, took out a crystal key, and placed it on the wall where the illusory passage had just appeared.

When he injected his spirituality, an "eight-pointed star" magic array flashing with illusory light appeared on the wall, but there were no diamonds in this magic array, nor were there priceless "Ahorna Crystals."

This is just a "secondary array." Only the crystal key in Odyseus's hand can establish a connection with the "main array" and generate an illusory passage.

Odyseus stepped into the passage and instantly appeared in a basement located outside another district.

After he left, the "secondary array" on the wall hid its traces and turned into a normal wall.

Returning to the basement of the house, Odyseus took off his cloak and mask, then put on a windbreaker. Judging from his clothes and temperament, he was completely two different people from the "Leader."

With the existence of this magic array, unless a demigod is eyeing him, he doesn't have to worry about exposing his identity at all.

Taking a public carriage back to the herbal medicine shop, Odyseus had lunch and rested for a while. The lady sent by that "Mysterious Queen" who came last night arrived as scheduled.

This lady changed the color scheme of her clothes today, and she still looks very elegant.

She frowned slightly when she saw Odyseus's somewhat messy laboratory, but she still reluctantly sat down on the chair next to the desk.

Odyseus took out paper and pen and asked, "How much do you know about magic arrays?"

"I can draw common magic arrays, and I can draw uncommon ones after seeing them once," the lady said. "If you want to teach me how to draw magic arrays, we can skip this item entirely."

Odyseus continued to ask at his own pace: "Do you know the six applications of flame symbols?"

The lady tried her best to endure: "Very clear!"

Odyseus asked the third question: "How to control the burning direction and intensity of flames in a magic array?"

"Direction...and intensity..." The lady was stunned for a moment, but she immediately smiled: "What's the use of knowing these things?"

Odyseus summarized without much emotion: "The foundation in mysticism is very poor. There are many things to talk about.

"I will try to explain clearly, and ask questions in time if you don't understand."

The lady was stunned again. As an excellent "Scroll Professor," it was the first time someone had commented that her "foundation in mysticism was very poor."

Odyseus took out his revolver and disassembled it into small parts, and began to explain the magic array applied in this weapon.

The burning direction and intensity of the flame that Odyseus mentioned earlier are very crucial in this magic array. Every time the weapon is maintained, it is equivalent to redrawing the magic array. If the flame is too strong, it will easily explode the chamber, and if it is too weak, it will be no different from an ordinary revolver.

If there is a deviation in the burning direction, it is very easy to explode the bullet the moment it leaves the chamber.

After listening for a while, the lady realized that what the herbal medicine shop owner in front of her was talking about was a brand new application of magic arrays, a new application that could shock the entire Transcendent world!

With this magic array, even ordinary people with sufficient mystical knowledge can create such a revolver with Transcendent effects!
