Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

#324 - The Magical Uses of Divine Blood

The massive mountain peak crashed down onto Whale Island, stirring up a hurricane. Though the "Deep Sea Admiral's" flagship had taken emergency evasive maneuvers in advance, it was still almost overturned.

Odyss, Klein, and the other two looked at the unrecognizable Whale Island, and for a moment, they were all marveling at the extraordinary destructive power.

Once the hurricane had passed, and all the mountain peaks and rocks had fallen onto the island, once the collisions and collapses had ceased, and the dust had been blown away by the sea breeze, Odyss and the others finally landed on the beach again.

Odyss glanced at the high mountains that had re-accumulated on Whale Island, and then said to Klein and the others, "Let's divide the spoils first."

As he spoke, he took out the gold, the elven-style weapons, and the extraordinary materials of the "Dragon-Eyed Sea Eagle" that he had just collected into the "Knowledge Wilderness."

Odyss pointed to the elven weapons and said to Hael, "According to the previous agreement, these weapons are all yours."

These weapons looked like antique-grade items, but they still looked very sharp, and what surprised Odyss was that most of them still retained some spirituality and belonged to the category of extraordinary weapons.

They were at least hundreds, thousands, or even thousands of years old, and they still had the characteristics of extraordinary weapons.

This made Odyss look at the elven "manufacturing industry" with new eyes. Before, he had always felt that such a violent race would not have too many sophisticated industries.

But now it seems that it is not necessarily the case.

Hael nodded and immediately squatted down to touch the elven weapons one by one.

He didn't know in what form the "Elven King's" divine blood existed, perhaps it was hidden in one of the weapons.

Odyss pointed to the gold and said, "I have channels to handle gold. I will handle this gold, and the pounds we get in exchange will be divided in a ratio of 4:4:2."

Alger was about to say that he didn't want the gold, but Odyss raised his hand and said, "Listen to me, the characteristics of the two 'Dragon-Eyed Sea Eagles' will belong to me and Gehrman Sparrow."

After speaking, he looked at Klein and asked for his opinion with his eyes.

Of course, he would not take out the "Elven King's" divine blood for distribution. Everyone would want to possess such a thing, and it would also expose the fact that the "Elven King's" divine blood was in his hands.

Similarly, Odyss decided to take care of Klein and Alger in the future when he had the opportunity, as a way to make up for their losses in this division.

Klein nodded, "No problem."

Then he added, "Give me those gold coins, and I can take less pounds."

Odyss took out the "Gustav Staff" and used "Sorcery" to separate the gold coins, and at the same time used his spirituality to complete the counting work: "There are a total of more than 1,700 coins, including some antique gold coins, which are worth 2,000 pounds."

Klein had no objection: "Okay."

In the era of Deacon Dedeir, Ruen gold coins were still used more often, and most denominations were 1 pound.

But the value of antique gold coins ranged from 1 pound to 10 pounds, and the price offered by Odyss was very fair.

At this time, Hael on the side said, "I can buy your two 'Dragon-Eyed Sea Eagle Eyes' for 4,500 pounds, how about that?"

Odyss replied, "4,800 pounds, otherwise I can completely take it to Bayam for trading."

"Okay, then it's 4,800 pounds. You come with me to the ship to get the money." Hael Constantine agreed readily.

Odyss used "Flight" to take off with Hael, and Klein and Alger followed along.

Hael said, "Gentlemen, I also want to talk to 'Admiral of Mystery' about the transaction of 'Extraordinary Machine Guns', please don't follow."

Odyss understood that the other party wanted to ask him about the "Elven King's" divine blood.

So Odyss simply smiled at Klein and Alger, "Then you guys wait here for a while, I'll be right back."

Klein and Alger realized that Hael alone was no match for the "Admiral of Mystery", so they did not follow.

Approaching the "Deep Sea Admiral's" flagship, Odyss saw that this ship was flatter than normal ships, except that the mast was not very high, giving people a "chubby" feeling.

The series of encounters just now had caused some damage to the ship, and the crew members were busy repairing the ship at this time.

The "Deep Sea Admiral" simply inspected it and asked Odyss to wait in the living room of the captain's cabin. He entered the study alone.

Odyss looked around. This ship was already a classic ship. The entire living room was a rounded arc, while the lines of modern ships were more rigid.

After a while, Hael came out with the pounds: "Sorry, the crew members are busy repairing the ship and don't have time to make tea for us."

"It's okay." Odyss took the pounds and counted them briefly, confirming that it was 4,800 pounds.

He stood up, making a look as if he was about to say goodbye and leave.

Hael really said, "Please wait a moment."

Odyss looked at the "Deep Sea Admiral" and asked knowingly, "What else is there?"

Hael Constantine seemed to organize his words before saying, "I can buy the things you got from the treasure at a high price."

Odyss smiled, "You are looking for Deacon Dedeir's treasure, you should have a special target, right?"

Hael straightened his back, "Please name a price."

Odyss asked instead, "Why do you think I got that thing?"

"Because among the four of us, only you have a 'Space Array'." Hael Constantine said, "That item cannot be hidden at our level. If it is on the other two people, I will definitely be able to feel its existence."

Odyss sat down again, "Do you really understand those two people?"

Hael was stunned by the question.

Odyss continued, "Gehrman Sparrow only took a few months to become the 'Strongest Hunter' even Anderson admits. I guess you also noticed the gloves he was wearing.

"I won't tell you who the other person is. Have you ever thought about why he always covers his face? I guarantee that you will be very surprised if you know his true identity."

Saying this was a bit of bluffing.

Hael frowned. After being reminded by the "Admiral of Mystery," he realized that the previous exploration team members were indeed very complicated.

Odyss asked again, "Do you really understand those two people?"

The "Deep Sea Admiral" did not answer immediately, but said after a dozen seconds of silence, "I really want to conduct an arms trade with you, how can I contact you?"

He planned to go back and have a demigod divinate to see which person the "Elven" divine blood was on.

The "Deep Sea Admiral's" attention was really drawn to Klein and Alger by Odyss. He didn't notice that Odyss just simply talked about his companions and didn't directly answer the question about the "Elven King's" divine blood.

However, Odyss's two companions were indeed very mysterious, and they were easily attracted by them. The "Deep Sea Admiral" had long noticed that Gehrman Sparrow's glove was suspected to be "Crawling Hunger."

That was once the sealed item of "Hurricane Admiral" Zilingos, and now Zilingos is dead, and no one knows how he died.

Gehrman Sparrow is relatively easy to find. After all, he doesn't have his own ship. As long as he hunts bounty criminals, he can know which island he is on.

It would be best if there was a way to contact the "Admiral of Mystery." After all, if he is sailing at sea, it is difficult to find him.

Of course, Odyss would not tell the other party his extraordinary contact information. He said, "I have a base on Cruise Island. You can send someone to send a letter there."

Hael took a deep breath before saying, "Okay then."

At this time, Odyss got up to say goodbye, and Hael did not try to keep him.

Odyss returned to the beach, reunited with his two companions, and divided half of the 4,800 pounds he had just received to Klein.

Then, the only spoils obtained from this exploration were the gold that had not been divided.

The three people were all relatively satisfied with the spoils they had obtained this time. Although Alger did not obtain the potion formula, he had collected the main materials.

For him, promotion was the most important thing.

Klein got more than 1,700 gold coins and has now obtained 2,400 pounds. He can probably get about 2,000 pounds more. Such a treasure is indeed very rich.

The most satisfied person was Odyss. He got three drops of divine blood. He hasn't thought about where to use it yet, but such high-level things must be useful! And it must have very high-level uses.

After agreeing with Alger to trade the extraordinary material of the "Deep Sea Blue-Eyed Electric Eel", Odyss took them into the Spirit World.

The "Deep Sea Blue-Eyed Electric Eel" was an extraordinary creature that Odyss had hunted in the "Sea God Temple" before. It was useless to put it in the "Knowledge Wilderness", so it was better to trade it to Alger.

Odyss first sent Alger to Longtail Island, and then sent Klein back.

...

Alger was in a good mood and quickly returned to the port of Longtail Island.

As soon as he returned to the "Azure Avenger", a crew member immediately ran over to report: "Captain, an urgent telegram from headquarters."

Alger quickly took the telegram, and then his eyes narrowed. The content of the telegram was: Go to Tiana Island and form a fleet with the "Wave" to track the "Argo" and "Golden Dream."

Alger, who had just separated from the captain of the "Argo", said in his heart: What trouble has "Admiral of Mystery" gotten into?

...

That night, the "Deep Sea Admiral" drove his flagship "Newins" to an unnamed island that was not on any sea chart.

There was a small town here, and Hael Constantine was the ruler of the town.

He returned to his residence with its huge courtyard, entered the altar in the basement, and used the corresponding ritual to contact Gena Constantine, a high-level deacon of the Constantine family on the high seas.

That was a demigod, but not a demigod of the "Sailor" pathway.

Facing the stalwart figure in the classical wizard's robe on the altar, Harrod reported his exploration experience today.

Finally, Harrod said, "The 'Elf King's' blood must have been obtained by one of the three of them, but their strength is too strong, and my pirate group cannot defeat them. In the end, I can only pretend not to know for the time being and come back to report this matter to you."

"Your approach is correct." Gena's voice was very grand: "The backgrounds of Odyss Gaal and Gehrman Sparrow are indeed very complicated."

Then he said, "Draw their portraits, and I will divine them."

This was exactly Harrod's purpose: "Yes."

He placed the prepared portraits in front of the altar.

Gena looked down. Odyss Gaal was a young man in a windbreaker, holding a classical staff and wearing a not-so-small leather bag around his waist.

The other two, one with a cold expression, and one with a face covered with a scarf.

Even as a demigod, Gena could only do simple divination for the three people he had never met, but if he designed a divination statement about the "Elf King's" blood, he could divine who had the blood.

After finishing the report, Harrod, who hadn't had dinner yet, immediately asked the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Sitting at the dining table, just as the servant poured him an aperitif, a middle-aged man in a classical wizard's robe came in from outside.

Harrod thought he was seeing things and was stunned for a moment before quickly getting up and saying, "Mr. Gena, you... how did you come?"

The middle-aged man who came was Gena Constantine, who had just "talked" through the altar.

Gena asked, "Is the staff that Gaal is holding like this?"

With a wave of his hand, a virtual piece of white paper suddenly appeared in front of him. The white paper changed its shape and became the appearance of the "Guthrie Staff", and then the white "Guthrie Staff" was dyed with color, which was no different from a normal "Guthrie Staff".

"Deep Sea Admiral" looked at it and said, "Yes, that is exactly the staff used by Gaal."

Gena's expression became serious: "This is the 'Guthrie Staff'."

He paused and ordered: "Try to get close to Gaal and find out how he got this staff."

Gena had never seen the "Guthrie Staff" either. It was just that when he divined the "Elf King's" blood just now, he found that the divination had failed.

Not because of interference, but because it failed.

Such a god-level spiritual material is also very important to an angel family, so he reported the matter to Constantine himself.

This angel, who had once been a member of the "Ten Pillars" of the "Moses Ascetic Order," recognized at a glance that Odyss was holding the "Guthrie Staff," and it seemed to be Theresa's staff.

So he ordered to investigate in a gentle way where Gaal's staff came from.

Constantine's staff was lost in a fierce battle and has not been recovered. He has always felt that it was a pity. If Odyss did not obtain this staff through inheritance, he would obtain this staff in a transactional, semi-compulsory way.

"Deep Sea Admiral" immediately said after hearing this task: "I will contact 'Admiral of Mysteries' as soon as possible."

......

In the next few days, the "Argo" and the "Golden Dream" sailed together towards North House Island, and replenished supplies at the port again in the middle of the journey, and let the crew "accidentally" reveal their destination.

Odyss basically stayed in Cruz Island and Bayam, discussing the "Scroll Shop" with Mandy, and discussing the issue of expanding the magical potion business.

When on Cruz Island, he was supervising the progress of the project.

At the same time, Odyss had several sums of money in the past few days. The first was to share the bounty of Jill Siaes, the third mate of the "Death Knell," with Klein. Odyss received the full bounty.

In the end, Odyss received 9,550 pounds. The reason why he received so much was because Klein "grazed" Jill Siaes, which was equivalent to taking away a Sequence characteristic of the "Apostle of Desire."

At the same time, Odyss bought the characteristics of "Demon" and "Serial Killer" at a low price.

The second income was the transaction of the "Deep Sea Blue-Eyed Electric Eel" characteristic with Alger, which earned 3,600 pounds.

The third income was the division of the Daiken Dedier treasure. Originally, Odyss had already received 2,400 pounds. The gold was sold for a total of 8,200 pounds. Together with the 2,000 pounds Klein had obtained before, the three people divided it according to the previous ratio. In the end, Odyss received 4,080 pounds.

So, this exploration, Odyss earned a total of 6,480 pounds, as well as a crystal with the level of a demigod, and three drops of divine blood.

Read without mistake!

This made Odyss's financial situation better, and there was no need to worry about construction funds anymore.

These days were relatively easy for Odyss, and in the blink of an eye, it was Saturday morning.

As usual, he looked at the construction progress from the top of Cruz Island, and then came to his office, locked the door, and entered the "Knowledge Wilderness" through "meditation."

In the past few days, when he had time, he would go to the "Knowledge Wilderness" to observe the holders of the two "Guthrie Staves."

Through these days of observation, Odyss had already clearly understood that the lady was indeed one of the "Ten Pillars" of the "Moses Ascetic Order," named Rosalind Reay, a "Master of Prophecy."

And the man named Theodore Timos was a cardinal bishop of the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery, a "Scholar of Mysteries," and was in charge of personnel work.

Odyss basically had a certain understanding of the recent trends of these two organizations by monitoring some conversations between these two people and their subordinates.

Entering the "Knowledge Wilderness," Odyss, as usual, first monitored Rosalind Reay. He placed one hand on the "Central Processing Unit," found the corresponding star, and spread his spirituality over it, so he could see the scene at Rosalind's place.

The other party was receiving a guest, a man in his thirties. The atmosphere in the reception room was relatively solemn.

Rosalind, who had delicate features and seemed to have experienced the vicissitudes of life in her eyes, said seriously: "I have said it many times, this is the last time, don't bother my asceticism again."

The man in his thirties smiled and said: "After so many years, haven't you figured it out yet? You can't overcome madness and distortion by asceticism, and you can't find the true meaning of this world."

Through some previous conversations, Odyss learned that the "Moses Ascetic Order" is currently mainly divided into three factions. One faction insists on using asceticism and thinking to screen the knowledge instilled by the "Hidden Sage" to understand the universe and fight against the madness and distortion of the extraordinary.

One faction insists on asceticism and actively uses the knowledge instilled by the "Hidden Sage" to understand the universe and fight against madness and distortion.

The third faction is to obtain enlightenment by praying to certain great existences, so as to understand the universe and fight against madness and distortion.

Obviously, the third faction is likely to be a believer of the Outer Gods.

Rosalind belongs to the members of the first faction. They will not reject the knowledge instilled by the "Hidden Sage", but will screen those knowledge to a certain extent.

The man opened his arms and said: "Only by listening to the voices of great existences can we obtain enlightenment."

While he was speaking, illusory rays of light were released from his back, as if he had obtained the missionary permission of a certain existence, so some miracles would accompany him when he preached.

Odyss nodded slowly, realizing that this man was from the third faction.

The organization of the "Moses Ascetic Order" is very loose. Even if there is a serious disagreement on the dogma like now, the "Hidden Sage" has no instructions.

The leader of the "Ten Pillars" does not care about such things. At most, he will only come forward to mediate when there is a fight within the organization due to disagreements.

Rosalind suddenly smiled: "If I knew you were going to talk to me about this boring topic, I wouldn't have seen you."

"We have received new instructions." The man ignored Rosalind's words and continued: "Odyss Gaal is the key figure to open the 'Door of Mysteries'......"

Odyss was stunned and wanted to ask who he had received instructions from.

"But we need more helpers to deal with Odyss's protector, the 'Mysterious Queen'." The man said: "Are you interested in joining? I can guarantee that Gaal is full of secrets.

"It will definitely help your asceticism and thinking."

Odyss thought to himself: You are using me to curry favor, thank you!

He did not expect to hear a plan about himself today.

However, Odyss was not nervous, because currently, in addition to the protection of the "Mysterious Queen", he is also a favored one of the "Goddess of the Night."

It is difficult for the people of the "Moses Ascetic Order" to locate his position, and they may only be able to squat on Cruz Island in the end.

That is Odyss's base camp. The first mate, second mate, and third mate take turns sitting there. One of the important tasks is to observe whether there are spies infiltrating.

And for the actions of this large extraordinary organization, they will definitely send some people to inquire about the news first. The Sequence of these people cannot be too high. As long as they observe carefully, they will be able to notice it.

Rosalind remained unmoved: "Didn't you catch him once before? Do you want to catch him again?"

Before, in Backlund, the "Moses Ascetic Order" used the struggle between the "Rose School" and the official extraordinary people to catch Odyss once.

Unfortunately, the operation failed, and a "Constellation Magician" died, losing a Sequence 7 Sealed Artifact.

That magical item corresponding to the "Witch" pathway Sequence 7 is on the shelves of the "Knowledge Moor".

"This time is different." The man behind him still emitted illusory light. He said, "We are preparing to dispatch a large number of people for a siege…"

Rosalind said, "I am not interested in studying someone."

"Or rather, I simply don't believe that someone holds the answer I've been struggling to find."

"Then I apologize." The man's expression suddenly became sinister. "You forced our hand. We've talked to you many times, but you've remained unmoved."

Audis noticed that within the light behind the man, illusory mouths appeared, making him look like a multi-mouthed monster.

At the same time, Audis heard sounds like many clergymen chanting scriptures from different chapters, chaotic yet sacred.

"Ah!" Rosalind cried out, falling to the ground in pain and desperately trying to get away from the man.

Her skin cracked inch by inch, revealing eyes with indifferent gazes within.

Rosalind suddenly became very weak, unable to get up, and could only crawl away.

This sudden change stunned Audis, but he immediately realized that the man hadn't come to persuade Rosalind from the start, but to corrupt her.

At the same time, he realized that when he was "preaching" before, he had awakened the corruption within himself, and the light emanating from him at that time was invisible to Rosalind. Only Audis, with something similar to "True Sight," could see it.

So Rosalind had no defense at all.

The man laughed loudly, "Hahaha! Listen to the voice of that great existence! Within it lies endless knowledge, an understanding of the extraordinary, a recognition of the universe, an explanation of the beginning…"

"This great voice will open a new door for you. Don't resist. Only after undergoing this baptism will you know what the essence of this world is like!"

Although Rosalind's face was full of pain, she was still gritting her teeth and persevering.

Audis frowned, feeling that he couldn't let the Outer God's follower succeed.

Rosalind, as a "ascetic," was still part of the uncorrupted members of the "Moses Ascetic Order," and posed no threat to Audis. He should save her.

So the question now is: How to save her?

Audis could use the "Guthrie Staff" to project power to Rosalind, and it would be power at the Angel level.

But the problem is that those powers only have the level and no specific abilities!

It's like constantly sending high-quality fuel into an engine, but the engine isn't running at all, so it can't produce any power.

After thinking about it for a while, Audis thought of the "Elf King's" divine blood.

He suddenly thought that he could use that divine blood as a medium to use the power of the "Knowledge Moor" to cast a few lightning bolts.

At this time, the cracks on Rosalind's skin were getting bigger and bigger, and those indifferent eyes were about to crawl out of her skin.

Without hesitation, Audis placed one hand on the "Central Processing Unit," leveraging the power of the "Knowledge Moor," and with the other hand, grabbed the "Elf King's" divine blood stored on the shelf, suspending it in his palm.

Under Audis's leverage, the light spheres that made up this room suddenly emitted illusory light, lingering around Audis.

Audis poured this surging power into the star representing Rosalind's "Guthrie Staff."

The divine blood in his palm seemed to be activated, emitting "crackling" arcs of electricity and surging sounds of the sea.

At this time, Rosalind was lying on the ground, struggling to hold on. Her "Guthrie Staff" had fallen not far away, but she knew that she couldn't hold on for long.

But she was unwilling to give up until the very last moment.

Suddenly, Rosalind, whose consciousness was already somewhat blurred, saw that the head of her "Guthrie Staff" suddenly emitted a dazzling light!

In the light, there seemed to be a towering existence wearing a robe, holding a lamp in his right hand.

Hermit!

Rosalind immediately realized that this was the light in the darkness, the "Hermit" who used knowledge as a beacon to guide the lost!

In that instant, the murmuring sound in Rosalind's ears instantly weakened, and her spirit and soul suddenly became much lighter, quickly regaining her reason and thoughts.

Then she saw that in the left hand of that towering existence wearing a robe, one half was thunder and lightning, and the other half was surging waves.

The next second, the "Guthrie Staff" floated in the air, and a silver-white lightning bolt shot out from the staff head, instantly hitting the man with mouths all over his back.

Crackle ~

While the man was still in a daze, the violent arc of electricity instantly burned his body to ashes. The arc of electricity flashed, and the clothes, as an insulator, were unharmed, slowly falling to the ground.

The illusory mouths disappeared into the void because they had no carrier.

Rosalind looked at everything in front of her, as if she were in a dream.

She knew very well that the person who had just turned to ashes, although only Sequence 5, seemed to have received the blessing of a certain existence, possessing power roughly at the Sequence 4 level.

But in front of this "Hermit," he was simply vulnerable!

Then, Rosalind came back to her senses and quickly got up and bowed to the "Guthrie Staff," saying, "Great existence, thank you for your help."

At this time, the cracks on her body quickly disappeared, turning back into normal skin.

After a second or two, the mysterious figure said in a majestic voice, "Able to adhere to the bottom line, with the demeanor of the former 'Ascetic Order,' very good."

As soon as the voice fell, the light of the staff head gradually disappeared, and the "Guthrie Staff" also slowly fell to the ground.

Rosalind looked at the staff in a daze for a while before muttering to herself, "What kind of existence is this?"

Then she thought of the other party's words, adding a bit of confidence to her consistent persistence.

The reason why Audis chose to withdraw in this way was because he didn't know how to deal with this demigod of the "Moses Ascetic Order."

Or rather, this matter happened too suddenly, and there was no time to think about how to deal with the situation after saving the person.

Rather than being flustered, it's better to withdraw handsomely.

Anyway, he has saved her now. When needed, he can contact her again and assign her some tasks as a reward for saving her.

But that's a matter for the future, and there's no rush to have further contact now.

Then, Audis recalled his image just now. He clearly wasn't wearing a hood, and his right hand was on the "Central Processing Unit" at the time. Why was the image projected onto the "Guthrie Staff" like that?

He first put the "Elf King's" divine blood back, thought about it, and felt that it should be the "Knowledge Moor's" transformation of his image, and didn't think much about it.

That lightning bolt just now used up a lot of his spirituality, so he didn't continue to monitor, but returned to the real world to rest.

As soon as he returned to the real world, he immediately found that his crystal ball was emitting a faint light. He put his hand on the crystal ball. It was "Vice Admiral Iceberg" contacting him.

But after using spirituality to establish a mystical connection between the two crystal balls, the figure of Bruce, the first mate of the "Golden Dream," appeared: "Captain Dale is missing."
