Transcendent Dawn Chapter 143: Clington
Half a month later, Clington Manor.
The Clington family started with animal husbandry. At this time, the owner of the manor was Lux Clinton, a guy who was crazy about aristocratic etiquette.
He likes gorgeous clothes, exquisite food, and holding grand banquets in the manor. He and the servants around him are required to set strict standards. It seems that he hopes to wash the face of the nouveau riche in this way. Fell, and squeezed into the upper class of the Federation in one fell swoop.
But just six months ago, Lux was in trouble.
An evil spirit that exists in a dream came to him. According to him, in the nightmare, an evil spirit has been chasing him, making him unable to sleep peacefully.
Of course, it's just that.
No matter what doctor he sees, he can't be relieved.
This situation lasted until three months ago, when murders occurred in the manor one after another. The victims were not humans, but animals!
From the gardener’s cat, to the guard dog, and finally to Lux’s love horse.
As the situation got worse, the rich man offered a reward.
Unfortunately, the nightmare situation has not yet been resolved.
The evil spirit in that dream is very cunning. Even if there are strangers and strangers who can scare it away, when the opponent leaves, it will inevitably come back.
This was the case several times before.
Even the local bishop of the Church of the Goddess of Light has no good way to do this.
After all, he still has more important things to do. It’s impossible to be Lux’s bodyguard here, and the evil spirit seems to be restrained-so far he hasn’t killed a single person, nor Will spread, not too harmful.
Slowly recalling the information collected, Sulu came to Clington Manor.
"Hello, may I ask?"
A male servant came out to greet him and asked politely.
"Sean, a private investigator, has an appointment before!"
Su Lu reported his new identity.
He does not have the guts of Rhode to pretend to be a federal law enforcement officer.
However, the identity of a private investigator is sufficient.
[The Occultist] The ability to invade the mind makes his disguise seamless. There is indeed such a person in the archives.
"It turned out to be Mr. Otto, please!"
The male servant had obviously heard the name, and asked Sulu to enter the manor and into a living room.
After waiting for a while, there was a housekeeper with silver hair and a little wilted spirit coming over, and politely invited Sulu to sit down and taste the afternoon tea with the characteristics of Kangni State.
It can be seen that their movements have been specially trained, and the black tea and desserts are also very exquisite.
This Lux, really knows how to enjoy it.
Su Lu sighed secretly, and the butler's voice came from his ear:
"The host is meeting a guest, please wait a moment."
"No problem."
Su Lu was eating snacks, looking at the exquisite decorations and antiques around him, and watching the changes in his attributes by the way:
"Well, the spirit has been improved to 5.1, but the physique has been reduced to 1.8. The effect of the vicious potion is still very powerful, and there is no resistance to superimposed medication, but...this is a bait!"
Although there is no resistance to the weakening of the effect, Sulu knows very well that once it is repeatedly used in a large amount in a short period of time, it will cause mental pollution to surge to an irreversible point, and the outcome must be very miserable!
Perhaps, this is a taboo area that even many [witch doctors] don’t understand!
Fortunately, he remembered the reminder in the attribute column that during this period of time, he should be careful to use malicious potions to impact his mental power and break his spirit through the 5.0 mark.
Also, try to separate the taking time as much as possible to minimize pollution.
By now, the conditions for promotion to Tier 3 [Thaumatologist] have been completely satisfied, but it's a pity...
'Lack of experience...Promoting to Tier 3 [Thaumatologist] requires 1000 experience points, but... even if I can be promoted, I have to put pressure on it, but I must maintain the ability to be promoted at any time. At the critical moment, Maybe you can pit Beatrice...'
As for the resulting decline in physique, Sulu thinks it is worth it.
‘After only taking it three times, the level of mental pollution has reached a critical level, and it will no longer be possible to increase it with vicious potions for a long time...unless I want to become a lunatic! ’
It was precisely because of this state that Sulu, who had prepared all the means, began to look for the traces of the "Face Slayer".
"The ‘face-saver’ is a second-tier level. With my ability, I’m not afraid at all... This is a good opportunity to gain material and experience."
Of course, Sulu will not agree with others, he is wary in his heart, and has inquired about some information early.
At least, the evil spirits in this manor do not seem to be so bloodthirsty.
It has been raging for half a year without killing anyone. The danger is indeed very low.
Even if you are not a face-saver, it is worth coming for experience points.
"Enough! I said...that is not my illusion, I need protection! More protection!"
At this moment, a group of people appeared from the second floor.
Su Lu looked over and saw that the leader was a very tired and irritable white old man.
He is not too old, but the prolonged torture has made him white hair and sunken eyes~IndoMTL.com~ with thick bags under the eyes, he knows that he hasn't rested for a long time.
"Federal officials...I pay so much tax every year, the result? Who will protect me when it's dangerous? And the Church of the Goddess of Light... I donated so much, and only sent a bishop to take care of half. Months..."
Lux complained and looked at the housekeeper.
"Master, this is the private detective you made an appointment!"
The butler immediately stepped forward and introduced Sulu to Lux.
"Are you Sean?"
Lux's critical eyes turned on Sulu: "You know what I asked for!"
Behind him, there are several bodyguards and private investigators, apparently employing more than one person.
"I know...strong enough!"
Sulu smiled and added accented syllables to the following words.
"Yes, protecting me is the first priority. It's best to find the evil spirit and solve it!"
Lux calmed down, lit his cigar, and took a deep sip. He recovered slightly, full of the temperament of a successful businessman: "Sorry...I was a little weak before."
"It's okay!"
Sulu politely said that there is no problem.
"So... back to our question, how can you prove your strength?"
Lux asked in a deep voice.
"If you have to..."
As soon as Sulu’s voice fell, and the whole person flashed, he came to Lux, right-handed rungs, threw a bodyguard out, grabbed the left hand, and took the gun from the other female detective back. Sit in place.
All this happened so quickly. When the other bodyguards reacted, Sulu was already playing with guns.
"Stop!"
Lux stopped other people's actions, and his eyes lit up: "Yes...you have been admitted. Sign a contract with my housekeeper. The salary is the same as previously promised."
