Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

Hobert frowned. He didn't expect that Mr. Ke's guess would be confirmed so quickly.

"You don't seem shocked?" Christine smiled.

"Yes." Hobert "confessed": "When I was in middle school, I was very interested in mysticism.

"About a month ago, I suddenly felt an unspeakable sense of madness in my body, and it became more and more serious. It was very much like a curse described in occult science."

He paused and then said: "I was quite surprised to hear you say that. So, some occult knowledge may not be legends or mere speculation, but real existence?"

Christine said seriously: "Yes, behind the appearance of the whole world, there is indeed an extraordinary world."

He said: "We need to have a heart-to-heart talk, where to start? Well, let's start with your biological father.

"I should have told you before that your biological father is my best friend. He is an outstanding person who has reached heights that many people cannot reach.

"At the same time, he is also the person most likely to end the curse in your family's bloodline."

Christine said sadly: "Unfortunately, he still failed."

family?

Hobert captured a key piece of information. He had never associated himself with any family before. After all, he had never seen any of his blood relatives. Was he the only one left in the family?

In addition, I wonder if his family is a family of extraordinary people?

Christine continued: "I fought side by side with your father Rex in West Balam. At that time, we talked about everything. He told me about the curse in your family's blood. He also told me that he did not intend to Continuing this cursed bloodline.

"But then he met your mother, and the two of them were very loving. It was because of your mother's insistence, and perhaps due to the arrangement of fate, that you were born.

"Generally speaking, the curse in your family's bloodline will be awakened on their 12th birthday, but your mother made a seal for you and bought you ten years.

"She hopes that you will have a carefree youth, have the opportunity to enjoy the beauty of life, have the opportunity to fall in love and kiss girls of the same age, and not always keep a straight face like your father.

"So when she left, she made me swear to tell you part of the truth when the curse is awakened."

Hobert felt a strong joy and sadness filling his heart. He knew that it was not his mother, and there was no trace of his mother in the memory of the original owner, but he was still deeply moved by maternal love.

"Time flies so fast," Kristen lamented, "That was already twenty years ago."

He continued: "When you were first born, Rex's situation was already very pessimistic. At the last moment of his life, he was still worried about how you would fight against the curse in your bloodline in the future.

"He hopes to let you choose for yourself. One way is to remain an ordinary person, but you will be in a semi-crazy state. However, your biological father has left you enough property. I will send you to a manor in the suburbs to help you choose. A faithful servant.

"Rex made a deal with the School of Life during his lifetime. When you are forty-five years old, you will be lucky enough to gradually wake up from your semi-crazy state, and you can enjoy the rest of your life as an ordinary person.

“The other way is to become an Extraordinary. When you become a Sequence 9 Extraordinary, your madness will be greatly reduced.

"But Rex asked me to remind you that first, you can only choose the magic potion of the lawyer path, because when your family's curse is awakened, you will become half a Sequence 9 of the lawyer path; second, when you Half a year after becoming an Extraordinary or being promoted, the feeling of madness will gradually increase.

"The magic potion will be like opium to you. Regardless of whether you have digested the previous magic potion or not, you will be eager to be promoted.

"Or choose not to be promoted and fight against the endless sense of madness, but this will also make your emotions very unstable, and most of the people in your family will die out of control."

Christine said: “You can think about it first, there is no need to rush to give me an answer.

"Oh, by the way, I would like to remind you that I only have magic potion formulas for Lawyer Path Sequence 9 and Sequence 8 here."

Hobert was stunned: "Didn't my father leave behind a higher-sequence potion formula?"

"No, this is a test given to you by Rex." Kristen said: "Maybe your father would rather you be an ordinary person."

Hobert twitched his lips, everyone else was cheating, but the original owner’s father was a professional cheater!

Then he thought that his code name in the Tarot Club was "Emperor", and the true god of the lawyer path seemed to be the Black Emperor. Is this a coincidence?

Haha, this is an extraordinary world, how could there be such a coincidence?

Hobert thought for a moment and said: "Actually, there is no need to think about it. I can't waste my best years in a crazy state."

Of course, it is also because dear "Mr. Fool" will get the "blasphemous card" Black Emperor Card in half a year. As long as he trades with the Fool, he can get the subsequent potion formula.

Christine said: "I still advise you to think about it. The world is full of people who have not grasped their best years, and they are still living well."

Hobert shook his head: "I still like to control my destiny in my own hands instead of leaving it to 'lucky enough'. Father, please give me the Sequence 9 potion. I will continue the family business. The day I become strong enough, I will be able to remove the curse from my bloodline."

Kristen laughed: "Rex should be very pleased to see this scene."

He said: "I respect your choice."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of parchment from the drawer, stood up and went to the cabinet in front of the bookshelf.

Open the cabinet door, and there is a set of beakers and many extraordinary materials in small bottles or jars.

Christine placed the parchment on the cabinet, took out the beaker and began to mix the potion.

He didn't let Hobert avoid it, so Hobert stepped forward and took a look at the contents on the parchment. Just as Hobert had guessed, it was the "lawyer's" potion formula.

Main materials: The eye of a fear insect, the fruit of a flash tree.

Auxiliary materials: one black iris, six monkey orchid leaves, 8 grams of black heart grass juice, 120 grams of white wine.

After reading the formula, Hobert was stunned. He didn't expect that the potion formula also required wine.

He thought divergently: It seems that people who are allergic to alcohol cannot be "lawyers".

At this time, he was a little excited and a little nervous, so he used random thoughts to vent his anger.

Kristine first added the auxiliary materials into the beaker, then used tweezers to put a black eyeball that was obviously lifeless and involuntarily scary into the beaker, and finally an eyeball that looked like a peeled walnut. fruit.

After adding all the materials into the beaker, all the extraordinary materials melted instantly without stirring. After a little black psychedelic mist emerged from the beaker, the dark black liquid potion was completed.

Kristine pushed towards Hobert: "This is the magic potion of the Sequence 9 'Lawyer'."

Thanks to [Yu Zhe] for the 100 point reward.
