Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

Outside 66 Rose Street in Backlund, a demigod from MI9 personally arrived after receiving a report from his subordinate, preparing to stake out Audris.

As a result, after waiting until 3 PM, Hugh came again to take away the reward and briefing and headed to the East End to do bounty missions as usual.

The demigod didn't react for a moment, and several important figures from MI9 were also asking themselves: Why did Hugh Dilcha put the reward and briefing at 66 Rose Street and then take them away?

They quickly realized: They had been played by "Chief".

It must have been "Chief" who made her do this, the purpose being to have MI9 send people to stake out the place, and then Hugh took those things away in front of everyone.

They even seemed to see the smug look on "Chief's" face: You've been fooled, right? I never intended to come and get these things.

But while the people of MI9 were angry, they were also somewhat helpless, because Hugh was not only an informant for MI9, but was also currently under the protection of the "Steel Heart", having become the new convener of the Mysticism Research Society.

Hugh becoming a convener was also of great benefit to MI9, and of course they wouldn't want to disrupt the current situation, so they couldn't interrogate Hugh.

The demigod could only leave somewhat helplessly, but he believed that Audris might also come to take the reward and briefing, so he told the two Sequence 5s to continue to monitor carefully.

They did monitor very carefully, especially since Hugh was a bit abnormal that night, taking a hired carriage to the church to pray, and they immediately mobilized more manpower to watch Hugh's every move.

However, they only monitored Hugh's hired carriage normally, and after finding nothing unusual, they gave up monitoring.

…

In a dark corner of a street in Backlund.

Audris suddenly appeared here from a phantom door, and then he took out a black iron ring and put it on.

This was a Sealed Artifact he obtained when he killed a member of the Aurora Order when he first started acting as a "Wizard" last year.

It could turn him into a shadow and hide him in the "darkness".

As for the negative effects, they were still barely acceptable if used for a short time.

Using the "Travel Ring" again, Audris appeared in a corner outside the church agreed upon with Hugh.

At this time, he had the blessing of the Night Goddess, and hiding in the "darkness" at night, even angels would find it difficult to detect his existence.

After seeing Hugh get out of the hired carriage, Audris took advantage of the night to flow into the carriage in the "darkness", covering the paper bag left by Hugh, which contained the reward and briefing.

After doing all this, Audris quickly left using the "Travel Ring".

As when he came, Audris didn't go far before returning from the spirit world to the real world, taking off the black iron ring on his hand.

After all, this came from a "Hermit", and in case he encountered some evil creature in the spirit world under its influence, it wouldn't be good.

Originally, Audris had planned to wait until next week, or when there was an opportunity in the future, to take the reward and briefing, but Audris suddenly thought that this was a good opportunity to disgust MI9, so he designed such a plan.

At the same time, a letter would be sent to MI9 tomorrow, telling them how he got the reward and briefing, to disgust them properly.

Although Audris wasn't a vindictive person, he had been ambushed by MI9 before and almost caught, which had always made him feel very annoyed.

At that time, he was working hard for Backlund, but MI9 played dirty tricks. Now that he had the opportunity, he definitely had to retaliate.

Back in Bayam, Audris roughly glanced at the intelligence summary written by Hugh. He first put away the £450 he got from selling extraordinary materials, and then wrote a letter to Hugh, helping her analyze which of these intelligence items were important and which were not very important.

In fact, with enough experience, you could tell whether the information someone was saying was important just by listening to a few sentences or looking at a few sentences.

Audris planned to carefully cultivate Hugh, striving to make her stand alone as soon as possible. This would be an important channel for him to obtain information about Backlund.

The information that could be obtained from Backlund was not only the information of that city, but it was almost one of the intelligence exchange centers of the entire Northern Continent.

At the same time, he could also get a lot of information about the sea and the Southern Continent, which was the channel Audris was most reluctant to give up.

So even with the surveillance of the Steel Heart, even with some risks, he would still risk contacting Hugh and remotely directing the gathering of the Mysticism Research Society.

At this time, Audris sighed: "It would be great to have a messenger."

He planned to summon a messenger as soon as possible after advancing.

It would be much more convenient to send letters and such by then.

Audris didn't send out the letter to Hugh immediately, but planned to wait a few days before doing so.

After that, he changed into formal attire, waiting for the arrival of his client.

This Ruin-style formal attire was newly bought by Audris, costing him 9 pounds and 6 soli.

For Audris, who didn't wear formal attire often, this expense made him feel a little wasteful.

He had to comfort himself: As long as he wore this suit, he could avoid £1000 in debt.

After waiting for more than half an hour, the client didn't arrive, but Basel came instead.

He came to deliver the bounty for the several pirates of the Red Lions pirate gang.

Audris simply counted them and put them in his pocket: "You've come at the right time. I'm about to go to the Night Goddess Church's cathedral. Let's go together?"

Basel was stunned: "Captain, I… I am a believer of the Lord of Storms."

Audris smiled: "It's not just for praying. Let's go, you'll know when we get there."

Basel didn't ask any more questions and followed closely behind.

Taking a hired carriage, they arrived at the Saint Anning Cathedral in Bayam, which also received believers for prayer at night.

Among the cathedrals of the Seven Gods, basically only the Night Goddess Church's cathedrals would always receive believers at night.

Other cathedrals might also have some cathedrals that receive believers at night depending on the actual situation, but only the Evernight Sun Church clocked out on time and closed its doors as soon as the sun went down.

Arriving inside the cathedral, Audris first prayed to the Holy Emblem of the Night.

This was actually to avoid being marked by the demigod of MI9 or personally marked by the God of Steam and Machinery during the action in Backlund.

Although the probability of this was extremely small, now that he had the Night Goddess as a backer, he would use it for nothing.

After praying and confirming that there were no problems.

Audris led Basel straight to the confessional. He signaled for Basel to wait outside. He opened the door and went in, sitting on the chair.

The priest said: "Praise the Goddess, may the starlight illuminate your heart and make you sincerely confess your sins."

Audris said: "Hello, Mr. Priest, I am Audris Gale, the "Chief" from Backlund. I hope to see Bishop."

"Oh, Mr. Gale…" The priest was stunned for a moment before reacting: "The Bishop notified us a few days ago to pay attention to Mr. Gale's movements."

Audris breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the Nighthawks had notified the clergy of Saint Anning Cathedral.

"Please follow me." The priest said this, and the door on his side opened first.

Basel outside vaguely heard the conversation between the two. Seeing the priest come out, he was slightly stunned and couldn't help but guess in his heart: So Captain Gale is a member of the Night Goddess Church.

He didn't despise this church at all because the Night Goddess Church didn't have many believers in the Rage Sea. He knew very well that there were a large number of Goddess believers in the Northern and Southern Continents.

This was a righteous god church, one of the seven largest and most powerful extraordinary organizations at present. There was nothing more reassuring than such an official background.

At this time, Audris also came out from the confessional side, pointing to Basel and saying to the young priest: "This is my companion."

The priest nodded, leading the way in front, with Audris and Basel following closely behind.

This was Basel's first time coming to the backyard of the cathedral. He found everything fresh. He didn't expect the cathedral to have such a structure, didn't expect the cathedral to also have a restaurant, office, and dormitory, as well as a washroom.

After passing through the backyard, they came to the main hall in the back, which was the place where the clergy worked. Because many of them didn't have much sleep, there were also many people playing cards in the lounge here at night, and some were also working.

The priest politely said: "Please wait a moment."

Audris agreed.

The priest quickly went up to the second floor, and soon a middle-aged man wearing the Night Goddess Church's bishop's robe and a clergy soft hat quickly walked down.

This was the bishop of Saint Anning Cathedral. He smiled kindly: "Mr. Gale! The telegram from Backlund has been sent a week ago, and we haven't received any news from you.

"Moreover, we have inquired three times during this period, and today we can finally give them a satisfactory answer."

These words stunned Basel. He didn't expect the Night Goddess Church to attach so much importance to Captain Gale!

"I'm sorry," Audris said truthfully: "Something was delayed, and I couldn't come to see you at the first time."

"It's okay, it's good that you're here." The bishop looked very amiable: "This way, please."

The two came to a reception room. Before entering, Audris said to Balzer: "You wait at the door for a while."

"Yes, Captain!" Basel immediately agreed.

Without a single mistake, one first one hair one inside one content one in one look one look!

Now he firmly believed in the "backer" that Captain Gale had said before, and even guessed whether the pirate group that Captain Gale wanted to form was the power of the Night Goddess Church at sea?

After all, he had never heard of any pirate group with the background of the Night Goddess Church in his many years at sea.

In the reception room, the bishop took the initiative to say: "My name is Dean, you can call me Bishop Dean.

“On behalf of the Church of the Evernight Goddess, I thank you for returning the ashes and characteristics of Archbishop Slante Weil, and please also thank ‘The Mystical Queen’ for us.”

“You're welcome.” Audis sat opposite the bishop and said, “I will convey your thanks.”

He paused and then said, “I am taking the liberty of visiting tonight in the hope of starting intelligence cooperation with the Anning Church.”

Bishop Deanne said, “How can I help you?”

The first telegram from Backlund mentioned Audis Gahl's resume. Even in the violent sea, Bishop Deanne had heard of the "leader" of the intelligence world.

The Archbishop of the Violent Sea region also ordered Bishop Deanne to provide as much convenience as possible regarding intelligence cooperation with Audis Gahl.

And let Bishop Deanne do his best to facilitate the cooperation, after all, "Violent Sea" has almost no churches of the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery, so there is no need to worry about conflicts between the two churches because of Audis.

“I want to start an intelligence gathering in Bayam.” Audis said straight to the point: “I hope the official Extraordinary will not regard this gathering as an organization with ulterior motives.

“In return for the protection you provide, I can provide all the information I have obtained related to evil gods, and all information that is detrimental to the Violent Sea or Bayam.

“If there is anything you want to know, I can also help you pay attention.”

The so-called "intelligence gathering" is basically a "empty-glove white wolf" project.

Audis gets protection from the official Extraordinary, and then uses this protection to organize an intelligence exchange meeting.

Many organizations and individuals hope to have such a place to exchange information, especially in the Violent Sea, and there are countless pirates who want to buy information.

This project has a market, but there is no reliable host.

Now it's good, Audis with an official background has become the host, everyone can trade with confidence and boldness, without worrying about being arrested halfway through the transaction. With Audis there, there is no need to worry about trading fake information.

Then Audis will use the exchanged information to give back to the official Extraordinary.

Everyone gets what they need, except that Audis, the middleman, only pays for the meeting place, and can get the protection and attention of the official Extraordinary, and will become the head of intelligence in a region in the shortest time.

Audis's request was very simple for Bishop Deanne, and he immediately agreed: "I will formally notify the Storm Church and the Governor's Office tomorrow, um...where do you plan to conduct intelligence transactions?"

“Kent Lane, Wizard Office.”

“Okay, no official Extraordinary will come to make trouble for you.”

Audis secretly breathed a sigh of relief, realizing that the Church of the Evernight Goddess attached great importance to intelligence cooperation with him, so he said again: “I hope you can attend the first gathering.

“After that, you don’t need to participate anymore, just wait for me to summarize after the transaction.”

“No problem,” Bishop Deanne agreed readily: “After all, everyone needs to know that this gathering has the background of the Church of the Evernight Goddess.”

Audis didn't expect things to go so smoothly. After the business was over, the two chatted for a while, and Audis got up to say goodbye.

In the carriage back, Bazel asked: "Captain, are we now considered informants of the official Extraordinary?"

“I guess so.” Audis smiled and said, “But the word ‘informant’ is not very appropriate, it should be said to be an intelligence officer or intelligence officer.”

He took a deep breath and then said: “I don’t have time in Bayam for the next two days. You can use your channels to spread the news, saying that an intelligence exchange meeting will be held at the Wizard Office recently.

“The venue is absolutely safe. No matter what organization you belong to, as long as you want to exchange information, you can go there and have a look.

“But if someone has ulterior motives, they will definitely be punished accordingly.

“And tell them that I have an amazing news about Bayam to announce to them.”

Audis paused and then said: “In addition to using your channels, also spread the news in various bars. I will give you activity funds, and you will also receive a certain reward after it is done.”

Bazel realized that this was the first task the captain had issued to him, and he must complete it seriously: “I will do it tonight…”

“No, go spread the news tomorrow afternoon.” Audis instructed.

Because Bishop Deanne will notify other official Extraordinary of this news tomorrow morning.

For the sake of prudence, it is better to spread the news tomorrow afternoon.

Returning to the Wizard Office, it was already very late, and there must be no customers coming, so after sending Bazel away, Audis also used the "Travel Ring" to return to Raxia Island.

The sea trial has just ended, and the shipbuilding work is not very busy, but Audis's ship is about to start construction, and there are many details to discuss with the ship designers.

This ship does not use any new technology, and basically uses the weapons and power systems of large sea ships.

The only difference is that because the ship is small, Audis has made certain modifications to the overall magic circle, such as more varied weapons, such as diving mode!

So there are more places to discuss with the ship designers. The whole day on Sunday was spent in the shipyard, and he didn't even have time to go to class with the scholars.

Audis didn't need to go to the shipyard on Monday, but he had other things to do.

Recently, whenever he has time, he has been experimenting with his new witchcraft in the "Knowledge Wilderness", and constantly summarizing the uses and methods of using witchcraft based on actual combat.

After this period of accumulation, he felt that he could complete the 《Compendium of Witchcraft》.

So in the early morning, he pretended to sleep in and entered the "Knowledge Wilderness" to write 《Compendium of Witchcraft》.

After three days in the "Knowledge Wilderness", he finally completed his second book.

From the overview of witchcraft and wizards, to the display of fifty-six witchcrafts, to the application and use skills of these witchcrafts in actual combat, this book can be called a textbook for "wizards".

But Audis did not intend to publish it publicly like 《Outline of Fighting》, but planned to put it in the "Knowledge Wilderness" first, bind it himself when he had time, and copy a copy using Extraordinary abilities.

Originally placed in the "Knowledge Wilderness", the copied one will be taught to a certain "wizard" when the opportunity is right, just as teaching a student.

Audis stretched his waist and returned to the real world. At this moment, he was surprised to find that the "Wizard" potion had been completely digested.
