【Lenke】Old Box

*About the story of the full-level actor Lun who accidentally traveled back to the past when he met Xiao Ke for the first time. Because of his poor acting skills, he lost his horse and gave up treatment (enough)

"Want to divination?" Klein walked to Leonard and sat down, shaking the Tarot cards in his hand.

Leonard closed the collection of poems, crossed his legs and leaned back on the sofa, looked sideways at Klein and said with a smile: "General people's divination is inaccurate, I don't bother to listen to it, but your divination is too accurate, I dare not listen to it." .”

"You're such a disappointment." Klein said bluntly.

"I'm just kidding, then help me with divination..." Leonard glanced around, and his eyes finally stayed outside the window: "When will the deep sleep flowers in the yard bloom."

The deep sleep flower is a ritual material when praying to the goddess, and it will be planted in large quantities near every Church of the Night.

"This is not something that can be revealed by Tarot cards." Klein said so, but did not refuse.He put away the tarot cards, took out the citrine pendant from his pocket, closed his eyes and meditated on the divination words, then opened them quickly and said: "The first flower of deep sleep will bloom on August 8th, and the rest It will be opened successively within the next three days.”

"It's so accurate, it's worthy of being a 'Seer'... Klein, you really have been serious about being a 'Seer'."

Klein glanced at the collection of poems in Leonard's hand: "To each other, you have always been like a poet, Leonard."

"Your word 'like' really hurts." Leonard's eyes died.

Klein couldn't help laughing, and it took him a while to calm down. He coughed lightly, and said in a slightly serious voice, "Okay, let's get down to business. In fact, I came to you because I need your help with something."

"Tell me, what's the matter?" Leonard asked knowingly.

After looking around and making sure no one was passing by, Klein said straight to the point: "My 'Seer' potion has been 'digested', I believe you know what 'digested' means."

finally come!Leonard immediately put on the expression he'd rehearsed many times in private, a mixture of shock, admiration, and a little bit of concern.Because he had already submitted a "special application", an overly exaggerated reaction was inappropriate. This was a response he had deliberated for a long time before deciding.

"Klein, do you want to submit a 'special application'?" Leonard continued to ask knowingly.

"That's right." Klein nodded: "I also know that it's unbelievable to 'digest' the potion for more than a month, so I hope you can provide me with an excuse."

"Don't you think this is a bit risky?" Leonard asked in a deep voice as usual.

Sure enough, Klein gave the same answer as before.

Leonard pretended to be thinking, and asked knowingly again: "So you want to tell the people in the church that the reason why you can master the 'acting method' is because you communicated with me who submitted the 'special application' Experience in mastering potions?"

"That's it. If you are willing to help me, I can provide some rewards within my ability."

Equivalent exchange?As expected of him... Leonard secretly smiled.

"Klein, I can help you cooperate with the Holy Church's investigation, but I have a small request." Leonard followed Klein's questioning gaze and continued: "When I submit the 'special application', to The sacred object of the goddess has made an oath and will never disclose the corresponding details to those who don't know the "acting method". This is the regulation of the church. I wanted to share the experience related to the "acting method" with the members of the Nighthawk team. Help them speed up promotion and fight madness, but lose that opportunity after submitting the application. So, Klein, I hope you can share with them, especially the captain, cryptically before submitting the application, um... this is what I think demanded reward."

Klein nodded immediately: "No problem, this is exactly what I want to do, but why does the church hide the 'acting method'?"

"According to the senior deacon, only the archbishop or the senior deacon can understand this secret. So when you state it to the senior deacon, you must pay attention to it. You have to say that it was on June 6 when I dined with me at the Old Ville restaurant , I learned about the 'acting method' from my mouth. And, you didn't know the complete 'acting method', because when I made a statement to the senior deacon, I only described my technique of 'mastering' potions, and Did not point out the 'playing method' directly."

Klein immediately gave him a "I understand" look, and then couldn't help laughing: "The church has worked so hard to keep such a secret, but it's a pity that the two of us are making trouble. I don't think Tingen's Nighthawk team can use it." How long will it take to replace a new group of people."

His words made Leonard fall into deep thought, and Leonard thought of Frye, that silent companion who was unwilling to be promoted in order to protect the Blackthorn security company in the future.

Worried about arousing Klein's suspicion, Leonard quickly restrained his thoughts, covered his face with his hands to hide his expression, held back his strong sense of shame, and added: "I thought I could 'digest' the demon in more than half a year. The medicine is already very good, and it is nothing compared to you."

"This is different. You figured out the 'acting method' by yourself, but I found out about it by accident from the very beginning. I believe your progress will definitely be faster than mine in the future." After Klein finished speaking, he sighed in embarrassment: "Also, I have no idea how to obtain the high-sequence potion of the 'Seer'."

No, I'm not, I didn't, Leonard frantically denied it in his heart, but on the surface he nodded guiltyly, acquiescing to Klein's statement: "Don't worry, the ship will enter the port naturally when it arrives at the ferry—this is Emperor Roselle famous saying."

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly saw Klein's mouth twitch.If it was before, he would definitely ignore this detail, but after being an actor for so many days, he can already read the meaning behind Klein's expression.

He has an unusual relationship with Emperor Roselle, so he can understand Roselle's diary, and he will feel embarrassed when he hears Roselle's famous words.

I'm also very talented as an "audience"... Leonard was a little proud, and then he heard a sneer in his mind, and he didn't know if it was a sneer. Sneered at his tiny complacency.

……

After Klein laid the groundwork several times and submitted a special application, a critical moment finally came.

It was just a simple haunting incident, and Leonard believed that it was probably caused by Klein asking the "Death Consul"--Azik Eggers, just to steal the blood of the sun god in the sealed item 3-0782 "Sun Flame Charm".

Of course, Leonard did not expose him, but happily took over 3-0782 from Klein, and followed the method taught by Klein, honestly and unceremoniously made three "Sun Flame Charm", Leonard De has long confirmed that this spell has an attack power close to that of a demigod, and this will be one of his trump cards against Ince Zangwill.

Leonard considered whether to ask Azik Eggers for help in Klein's name.But he quickly realized that Klein should have realized his own danger in the later stage. He repeatedly emphasized the coincidence of his encounter to the people around him. In this case, it was impossible for him not to ask Azik Eggers for help.In the end, Azik Eggers still failed to arrive in time, which means that he also fell into the coincidence made by 0-08.

This sealed item can actually allow a Sequence 5 Extraordinary to influence an angel!

The last trace of luck in Leonard's heart was gone, only deep fear remained.If it wasn't for the side assistance of "King of Angels" Adam, it would have been impossible for him and Klein to kill Ince Zangwill.

Therefore, his plan did not include killing Ince Zangwill, and Ince Zangwill would still be reserved for Klein in the future as a ritual material for promotion to a demigod.

Of course, these reflections were conducted under the aegis of secrecy.

After making the "Sun Flame Talisman", judging from the timeline, the next step should be...Old Neil's loss of control.

Leonard did not follow, but was reading a collection of poems in the office while waiting for news.

He kept flipping the pages of the book, but couldn't read a single letter. Finally, he saw the captain, Klein, and Luo Yao returning to the Blackthorn Security Company with heavy faces.

After Dunn and Luo Yao left, Klein sat blankly by the corridor alone. Leonard hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward to comfort him: "This is something we can't do anything about."

"I know." Klein replied hoarsely.

At nine o'clock on Thursday morning, after the funeral of Old Neil, Leonard has been silently following Klein's side, going to the shooting range with him to shoot targets, and going to Gawain's home for combat training with him.Gawain's comfort cheered Klein up a bit, and then the two went to the tavern together, drinking low-alcohol ale until the sky darkened.

Klein is a frail history student who is not good at drinking alcohol. Even low-alcohol ale can make him a little delirious.

"Leonard..." Klein lay on the table and looked up at Leonard, saying vaguely, "I... I know you have some secrets, not the ones you said, but other secrets. The secret... Don't worry, I can't guess what it is, and I won't explore it, because... I know you have no ill intentions towards me."

Leonard stared at him blankly, is this some kind of drunken confession...

Sure enough, Klein's sentence: "Did you know me before?" was not a simple temptation, but his transcendent intuition guided him to discover a small part of the truth.

Leonard didn't have the idea of ​​letting Pallez steal Klein. As long as Klein didn't become wary of himself because of this, it wouldn't matter if he found out a little bit of the truth, so he might be able to relax more.

However, Leonard would never think that it was not his EQ that betrayed him, but... Every time he saw Klein, his eyes would unconsciously become soft and uneasy.

It's like dealing with a lost and found best friend.

That was the indelible imprint brought about by the ten-year separation between him and the future Klein.

And now Klein guessed that Leonard might know the original owner of this body, and maybe the original owner's memories about him happened to be in those lost fragments.Of course, this possibility is very low. It is more likely that his memory of Leonard has been erased by some extraordinary power.

Judging from Leonard's constant reaction, he obviously didn't want to be known by him. Klein didn't plan to say it at first, but for some reason, his spiritual intuition faintly told him that if he missed this opportunity, maybe I haven't had a chance to say it for a long time.

"It's okay for you to know." Leonard blinked: "Because I believe that your secrets are only a lot more than mine."

"Okay, I admit it." Klein smiled and raised his glass to him again.

……

The next day, Klein successfully passed the review of the Holy Church. His astonishing promotion speed quickly covered up the surprise that Leonard brought to everyone before. Leonard also stepped forward to congratulate him, and the two exchanged tacitly. With a glance, he confirmed that the plan was going well.

Leonard calculated the day of the siege of Mrs. Sharon, and applied in advance to take away the Sealed Artifact 3-0217, "Mirror of the Psychic", on the grounds that he needed to investigate Lanerus's residence.In fact, he wanted to follow the past more by himself, but investigating Lanwusi's residence was equally important, and he really couldn't get away.

He believed that Klein would never be unable to deal with Mrs. Sharon just because he lacked 3-0217. He still had the "Sun Flame Charm" on him, and he would apply for other sealed items.

However, that afternoon, when he and Klein met at No. 62 Howers Street, he learned from Klein that Mrs. Sharon was successfully killed, but Kernley still passed away due to an accident.

Leonard felt a chill run down his spine.

Is this the so-called fate?

It has been more than a month since he went back to the past, but so far, he has not succeeded in changing anyone's fate!

"What's wrong with you? Leonard." Klein noticed his strangeness.

"Don't mind, I feel a little sad when someone I know dies," Leonard replied.

It's not like this.

Klein denied Leonard's explanation in his heart. He saw that Leonard's face lost all color in an instant, and it was obvious that deep fear and despair were revealed from his expression.

Klein forcibly suppressed the doubts in his heart, and turned his attention to the incident of Lanwusi.

Soon, they found the letter left by Lanwusi again, and the two hurried back to the Blackthorn Security Company. At the door, they also encountered May, who made Leonard feel a little breathless and had trembling hands and feet. Goose.

He tapped his forehead hard and took a deep breath to calm himself down.

What a shame, the archangel of Sequence 2 is actually afraid of a pregnant woman... Leonard laughed at himself silently.

He decided not to care about that damned fate!

There is absolutely no reason in this world to admit defeat without trying!

"Have you calmed down?" Klein's worried voice rang in his ears.

Leonard reluctantly nodded: "I'm sorry, Klein... for letting you see such an embarrassing side of me. Go ahead, I have a hunch that we still have a tough battle to fight next."

Klein patted him lightly on the shoulder, and walked forward first, leading Megose at the door into the room. Soon, Klein also discovered that Megose was the one mentioned in the letter from Lanerus. "bomb"!

The emergency plan of the Blackthorn Security Company is being activated rapidly, while Leonard has been sitting in front of Megose, watching her blankly, watching her constantly tearing his hair and flesh.

It's not that scary actually...

Leonard realized that what he was afraid of was not her, nor the heir of the evil god in her belly. What he was really afraid of was that he could only watch the captain and Klein die in front of him helplessly, and that he could only see Their cold corpses.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a sound of footsteps in the corridor.Leonard stood up and entered the corridor. His eyes rested on the saint's urn in Dunn's hand for a moment, and then he said quickly: "Captain, the child in Megose's womb will be born in three minutes. We must immediately Get rid of that baby."

Then, without looking at Klein's strange gaze, he took out two "Sun Flame Talismans" from his pocket and handed them to Dunn: "Captain, let me use the ashes of Saint Selina, I have fully grasped them." I bought the potion of 'Nightmare', and at the same time, it has a certain hole card to avoid the negative effect of ashes. The damage of these two spells is comparable to the attack of demigods, and the effect is not worse than the ashes of saints. Klein can prove this. Their activation The spell is 'light' in ancient Hermes."

"You mastered the 'Nightmare' potion?" Dunn's usual calm face showed a trace of surprise. He remembered that it had only been more than a month since Leonard became "Nightmare", but he believed that Leonard was not Will joke about it.

"Maybe I'm suitable for any role...except for a poet." Leonard said masochistically, smiling relaxedly.

Then, he reached out his hand to Klein: "Leave Sealed Artifact 2-105 to me too, I can use it better."

"Okay." Klein nodded, and handed over the blood vessel thief to him without hesitation. At this critical moment, he didn't want to ask Leonard why he had the "Sun Flame Charm".

But Dunn was still a little hesitant, because he knew best what it meant to use the ashes of the saint.

"Captain!" Leonard said with firm eyes, "There is no time, trust me, I will not joke about the lives of the people of Tingen City!"

Finally, Dunn nodded and handed the urn to Leonard.

TBC

Leonard: I want to be an "audience"!

Pallez: Go away.

After becoming a fortuneteller, Klein went to the gray mist to do fortunetelling once.

"Leonard didn't mean me badly"

"Leonard didn't mean me badly"

"Leonard didn't mean me badly"

"..."

Miserable Leonard

PS: Regarding Old Neil and Kenley, I think even if Leonard is the second week, he can't save everyone. This is not a game, and the enemies are not static.Predicting the future can bring huge advantages, but it is not absolute. The enemy will also make changes according to his movements, so it is unknown who Leonard can save and who he cannot save.
