Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

#170 - Bernadette's invitation

Klein's living room window had been replaced yesterday, and the sofa he had thrown out before had also been repaired, costing a total of 1 pound and 8 Soles.

When Klein heard Mr. Gehrman Sparrow say that the official Extraordinary's bonus was as high as 5,000 pounds, he immediately felt that his expenses were nothing.

Audrey continued: "Let's discuss how to distribute this bonus?"

The experienced Eysenck smiled first: "In the battle the night before yesterday, Mr. Gehrman Sparrow made the greatest contribution, so Mr. Gehrman Sparrow can distribute it."

Klein and Cattleya immediately echoed and nodded, indicating that they also agreed with Detective Eysenck's view.

Audrey smiled and said: "Then let me talk about my distribution plan first. According to our contributions yesterday, I will take 2,000 pounds.

"Detective Sherlock will take 1,400 pounds, Detective Eysenck will take 1,400 pounds, and Miss Cattleya will take 200 pounds."

"No, that's too much." Cattleya said, "I... I didn't make any contribution yesterday, but instead caused you a lot of trouble."

Originally, she thought that she was only called to share the bonus, and she would only be given a little something casually, but she didn't expect to be given 200 pounds!

Audrey smiled and said: "Don't decline. Yesterday, just deciding to participate in the action against the 'Apostle of Desire' was already a great risk.

"And you were used by the 'Apostle of Desire' with your emotions, that's not entirely your problem.

"As you said, you didn't really make any contribution, but there should be a part of the reward that belongs to you."

This is the so-called "participation award". For this kind of high-risk action, as long as you participate, you should be given a considerable reward.

Cattleya, with slightly thick eyebrows, habitually brushed her hair: "Then... then okay."

Audrey asked the other two people again: "What do you think of this distribution plan?"

Yesterday, Klein interrupted the "Apostle of Desire's" use of other people's emotions twice, so his contribution was also great.

As for Detective Eysenck, his early plan led to the "Apostle of Desire" and contacted the official Extraordinary.

In Audrey's opinion, the contributions of the two people were about the same.

Klein and Eysenck successively expressed that they had no objections to this, so the four people divided the bonus according to Audrey's distribution plan.

Audrey smiled after putting away her bonus: "Everyone, after all, we have fought together. In the future, when we need each other, we can help each other."

Everyone would of course not miss the network of people like "Mr. Gehrman Sparrow", and they all expressed their agreement.

Then, Audrey got up and said goodbye, took a carriage back to "Nanshan Dance Hall", and after changing her disguise twice again, returned to No. 66 Rose Street and continued to be the wizard Gandalf.

All day long, he was waiting for new customers, but no new customers came to visit.

In the evening, Audrey leaned halfway on the bed, used "Meditation" to enter the "Knowledge Moor", counted her gold pounds again, and returned to the real world with satisfaction.

Just as he was about to sleep, a phrase suddenly appeared on the ceiling in front of him: I'm here.

Audrey was stunned, wondering why the "Mysterious Queen" suddenly came?

He asked: "What's the matter?"

Bernadette's voice rang in the air: "I have something I need your help with."

"Ask me for help?" Audrey thought he had misheard. What could a Sequence 7 do that a Sequence 3 couldn't solve?

"Yes." Bernadette affirmed: "I'll give you ten minutes to change your clothes. Don't wear your long beard anymore. That beard is ugly."

The younger version of Audrey without a beard was more pleasing to the eye.

"Okay." Audrey lifted the quilt and put on a knight's uniform that was convenient for action and had a "defense magic circle".

The "Mysterious Queen" called herself out so late, definitely not to go to a party, it's better to be prepared for battle.

Ten minutes later, the carriage in the shape of a pumpkin, pulled by horses transformed from mice, appeared in front of Audrey again.

Audrey sat in the carriage with pink as the main color. The door closed by itself, and the outside immediately became bizarre, as if all the surrounding objects had turned into clusters of rich colors.

Immediately afterwards, Audrey came to the spirit world again. This time, he basically adapted to the environment of the spirit world. Because of the protection of Bernadette's carriage, he also boldly observed the spirit world creatures outside.

However, before he could take a closer look, the surroundings of the carriage became bizarre again, and Audrey found himself on a pier.

This pier was very quiet, and only occasionally could some noise be heard from the brightly lit ships parked in the distance.

Bernadette, with her hair tied up, was wearing beige trousers that were easy to move around in, black leather boots on her feet, and a brown knee-length skirt on her upper body. Audrey actually saw a bit of dashing and unrestrainedness in a woman.

Getting out of the carriage, Bernadette said: "I'm sorry to ask you to come out and help so late."

But there was no apology on her face: "When I was tracking an important member of the 'Moses Ascetic Order', I discovered an ancient ruin. I encountered some strange magic circles in it and need you to crack them."

Audrey nodded: "No problem."

He thought to himself: This is my specialty.

Bernadette continued: "If you find anything of value inside, we will divide it together, but if there is danger inside, and I play a greater role, I should get more.

"If there's nothing inside, just consider it voluntary labor. After all, investigating the purpose of the 'Moses Ascetic Order' is also beneficial to you."

This is what every experienced Extraordinary must do before exploring: stipulate how to divide the spoils.

Audrey nodded: "Okay."

Even if he could only get some antiques, he could sell them for a very good price.

After determining the general plan for dividing the spoils, the action officially began.

Bernadette led Audrey to the river. With a wave of her hand, a huge vortex immediately appeared in the Tussock River in front of the two people.

The vortex grew larger and larger, and soon exposed the silt at the bottom of the riverbed.

In Audrey's opinion, the vortex was very powerful, but the ships sailing on the river in the distance seemed to be unaware of the vortex.

"Go." Bernadette grabbed Audrey's sleeve and jumped down.

This action startled Audrey. He was ready to step into the silt, but he didn't expect that after falling into the silt, he didn't feel any contact with the silt.

Before Audrey could recover, he and Bernadette, like two incorporeal souls, entered the riverbed without touching any obstacles.

The vortex on the Tussock River disappeared immediately, and the river surface quickly returned to calm.

Audrey saw a bizarre scene, first seeing the silt, then the soil, then the rocks, and finally his eyes suddenly opened up, appearing in a long underground corridor.

Although it was very dark inside, Audrey's eyes, strengthened by the potion, could still roughly see that the corridor was very wide.

At this time, a very soft light suddenly emitted from in front of Bernadette. A small crystal floated in the air in front of the two people, emitting a light that was not dazzling, but could illuminate a long distance.

With the help of the light, Audrey noticed that although this place was below the Tussock River, there was no sign of water seepage. Some extraordinary means should have been used for waterproofing.

"This way." Bernadette led the way in front.

Audrey quickly followed: "Do you know roughly what period this ruin is from?"

Looking at Bernadette's back, which was neither thin nor fat, Audrey felt a shameful sense of security.

"Fourth Epoch." Bernadette replied: "The ruins of the Trunsoest Empire."

She paused and said: "There are some murals in front. The style of the paintings belongs to the Fourth Epoch, depicting the scene of the 'Night Emperor's' army fighting with the 'Black Emperor's' army."

There is no mistake in one song, one shot, one content, one look, one look!

Audrey said "Oh": "We just walk around so swaggeringly, won't we be discovered by the people from the 'Moses Ascetic Order'?"

"No." Bernadette replied: "They don't know about this place either. I accidentally knocked over a stone tablet while tracking a member of the 'Moses Ascetic Order' and discovered this place.

"The stone tablet has been restored by me, and the 'Moses Ascetic Order' cannot find this place."

For some reason, Audrey suddenly noticed a trace of weirdness: "You, accidentally knocked over a stone tablet?"

Bernadette suddenly stopped and glanced at Audrey: "I also feel that this is a bit wrong, after all, I haven't made such a low-level mistake for a long, long time.

"But I carefully checked my condition and didn't find anything wrong. Maybe I was just too unlucky at that time."

"Unlucky?" Audrey chewed on the word, and didn't continue to talk about this topic, because if Bernadette didn't find anything wrong with her condition, maybe he was just overthinking, and there was really nothing wrong with this matter.

While talking, the two came to the mural that Bernadette had just mentioned. It was a colored mural, and the colors were still very bright after more than a thousand years.

As Bernadette said, Audrey did see a neat and unified army with the symbol of the Trunsoest Empire marching forward. The mural in front was a description of the battle scene.

The symbol of the Trunsoest Empire, or rather, the Trunsoest family, is a black crown. Therefore, in battle scenes, these symbols can be used to distinguish soldiers belonging to different factions.

Audrey saw that the symbol of the Trunsoest Empire's main enemy was an imposing throne, which was the symbol of the Solomon Empire.

He nodded. Bernadette's judgment was correct. This was indeed a battle between the Trunsoest Empire and the Solomon Empire.

Continuing to look, Audrey also saw soldiers belonging to a third faction. The symbol on those soldiers was a hand holding a scepter.

He pointed to the symbol: "This, this is the symbol of the Tudor Empire!"

"Yes," Bernadette said after a glance. "Perhaps some records in ancient books are true."

"During the Fourth Epoch, the Trunsoest Empire and the Tudor Empire secretly formed an alliance and jointly destroyed the Second Solomon Empire."

Audrey said "Oh," and suddenly remembered that 'Black Emperor' Solomon was the 'old boss' of 'Blood Emperor' Tudor and 'Night Emperor' Trunsoest.

Or rather, 'Blood Emperor' and 'Night Emperor' gained the opportunity to become Sequence 1 because they betrayed 'Black Emperor'.

Later, the resurrection of 'Black Emperor' Solomon forced 'Blood Emperor' and 'Night Emperor' to break up. One risked jumping into a non-adjacent pathway, and the other completely leaned towards the then Six Gods, obtaining the opportunity to jump to an adjacent pathway and become a 'Justiciar'.

Bernadette suddenly asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"Nothing," Audrey smiled. "I just didn't expect that this exploration would also reveal clues to such an ancient history."

Bernadette nodded: "These historical truths have indeed been buried in the river of history due to various reasons, and few people know these secrets now."

The two continued forward and soon arrived at two stone gates, engraved with esoteric symbols that looked very unfamiliar.

Among these symbols, there were also some crystals and gems that seemed to be integrated with the gate.

"It is indeed a complex ancient array," Audrey said after a glance. "I have never seen these symbols before. They do not belong to the common Ancient Elven, Ancient Giant, or Ancient Dragon languages."

"Are you confident in restarting the array and opening the door in front of us?" Bernadette asked.

This was a rather advanced array, which could also be regarded as a special lock. More than a thousand years had passed, and it could still be used normally.

Bernadette had tried many methods, but none of them could pass through this door.

"Yes," Audrey smiled. "But I need a notebook and a pen."

"No problem," Bernadette stretched out her right hand. Her hand suddenly became illusory and disappeared. When her hand reappeared, she had a brand new notebook and a pen in her hand.

These were the notebook and pen she had taken from her storage space in the Spirit World.

Audrey took the notebook and began to take notes and analyze it carefully.

This was not difficult for him. Although the symbols were unfamiliar, advanced symbols were used to express the essence of this world. With the knowledge of Ancient Dragon language and other languages as a reference, Audrey could easily know the meaning of these symbols.

Moreover, Audrey was also very proficient in arrays. Just by calculating the position of these symbols, he could roughly know the function of these arrays.

More than ten minutes later, Audrey said with some surprise: "There is actually a part that gathers spirituality in this array!"

"No wonder it can still operate normally after more than a thousand years. It has been replenishing its own spirituality."

Bernadette immediately understood Audrey's surprise: "It seems you are not alone."

Before this, Bernadette also believed that changing the concentration of spirituality, that is, arrays that gathered or diluted spirituality, were exclusive to Audrey.

She didn't expect that more than a thousand years ago, there were already similar arrays and certain applications.
