Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

Upton certainly had no objections to Hobert's plan to dispose of the spoils. His survival was the biggest gain from this battle.

Of course, Upton also had other needs. He said to Hobert: "I don't need any trophies. In addition, I will give you the reward promised before, but I need a Tamara family member who died not long ago." Corpse.”

Hobert realized that this might be the "material" used to avoid the Tamara family's divination. He asked curiously: "Can't you use your mother's body?"

Upton shook his head: "My father's notes said it must be the spirituality of other family members besides our family."

Hobert nodded: "After you rent the house, wait for me at Harvest Church."

Early the next morning, Hobert wrote a letter to Hugh, telling her that he promised to help Upton and prepare the two ladies for battle. Naturally, he didn't explain the specific purpose of helping Upton, but when Xio saw this letter, I believed she would understand what Hobert meant.

After staying in the office until after nine o'clock, Hobert went out again to "visit clients."

He came to Gal's Herbal Medicine Shop and spent 330 pounds to buy a complete adult Pegasus horn and 5 grams of crystallized crown jellyfish venom.

Then Hobert spent another 30 pounds to buy many herbs used in occultism. The auxiliary materials for "pharmacists" were mixed in these herbs, and Hobert basically bought a lot more, using a few drops of autumn He directly bought a small bottle of narcissus essence and a few petals of the ground spoon flower. He directly bought two flowers.

All the materials added up to a total cost of 360 pounds. Hobert quoted Graylint 420 pounds. After all, he made two trips and took a certain risk.

Viscount Graylint paid the money readily, and then asked Hobert to help make the potion.

Hobert prepared the ingredients and was about to make the mixture when he suddenly felt as if a pair of eyes were staring at him and Gray Lint.

Hobert quickly turned on his spiritual vision, but found no trace of the undead or other magical creatures hiding in the dark.

Gray Linte urged: "Are you not ready yet?"

Hobert shook his head and paid attention to his surroundings while mixing the potion.

The feeling of being watched always existed. It wasn't until Hobert prepared the potion and Gray Linte couldn't wait to drink it that the secret gaze disappeared.

Hobert took a deep look at Viscount Graylint who was standing aside. Graylint seemed not to notice, and took a deep breath with enjoyment on his face: "A lot of knowledge about herbal medicines and prescriptions appeared in my mind. "

Hobert did not ask, but smiled and said: "This is the magical place of potions."

Viscount Graylingt asked: "Do you have any good suggestions for the 'pharmacist'?"

"In my opinion, a 'pharmacist' can also be a 'poisoner'." Hobert smiled and said: "After all, the main material contains the crystallization of crown jellyfish venom. In addition to giving you a certain ability to resist toxins and poisons, Theoretically, you should also have some knowledge of poisons."

Viscount Graylingt closed his eyes, as if he was thinking about it. After a while, he opened his eyes and said, "You are right, I can indeed prepare many kinds of poisons.

"Thanks to your reminder, otherwise it might have been a long time before I realized this."

He took out his pocket watch, looked at it, and suddenly whispered to Hobert: "I want to invite you to dinner tonight. You must come."

Hobert was stunned. We were just having a meal together. Is there any need to whisper like this?

But thinking of the gaze just now, Hobert said nothing and nodded slowly.

After leaving Viscount Gray Lint's house, Hobert found a place to have lunch, and then came to the Harvest Church in the south area of ​​the bridge.

Before entering the church, he put on his mask again and stepped into the door of the church. As expected, he saw Upton, who was a little restless in his seat.

Bishop Utravsky, who was sitting in the front row and was reading a book, glanced at Hobert, and then continued to read the Bible of Life in front of him.

When Upton saw Hobert's mask, he breathed a long sigh of relief: "You are finally here."

He whispered: "The bishop of this church is really scary."

Hobert twitched the corner of his mouth. Aren't you afraid of "Giant Bishop"'s casserole-sized fist? He asked: "Have you rented a house?"

"It's rented. It's at No. 103 on the next street."

"Then you go back. If you have a premonition of danger, come to the church and notify me immediately."

Upton nodded, took a deep breath, stood up and left.

Hobert took off his mask, and Bishop Utravsky said: "This is a church, not a place for you to plot your conspiracy."

Hobert smiled and said: "Wouldn't the Church of the Mother God refuse anyone?"

This made Bishop Utravsky slightly stunned.

Hobert stood up and sat next to Bishop Utravsky: "Mr. Father, I heard that your religion has extraordinary people who are good at growing crops?"

"Yes, they can double the yield of crops and know various methods of grafting and cultivation."

Many fish and mushrooms suddenly appeared in Hobert's mind. He shook his head to drive away these thoughts: "Father, have you been to Backlund's East End?"

"No, but I've heard of it."

"Father, why are so many people hungry?"

Bishop Utravsky took a deep look at Hobert: "This is my motivation to spread the glory of the Mother Goddess. When the glory of the Mother Goddess shines on this land, no one will go hungry anymore. .”

"Father, you are wrong. Even if there is enough food to feed everyone, some people will still go hungry. Do you believe it?" Hobert looked at the holy symbol of life in front of him: "Human beings have given life meaning, but they live without anything. It makes sense.”

He paused and then said: "In my opinion, everyone should have the right to have enough to eat."

Utravsky slowly said: "In the eyes of the Mother Goddess, every life is meaningful."

"This is not enough." Hobert suddenly shook his head: "If we don't discuss this heavy issue anymore, can I take a look at your religion's "Life Bible"?"

"sure."

So throughout the afternoon, Hobert read the "Life Bible" of the Earth Mother Church. He read it slowly and carefully, and the sound of turning pages was left in the church, solemn and holy.

As night fell, without waiting for Upton's warning, Hobert took a carriage to Queen's Road.

Viscount Gray Lint was already waiting in the restaurant. The two of them exchanged a few words and began to serve the food.

The chef of the Viscount's family is a real chef, and the dishes he prepares are both beautiful and delicious. However, each dish is too little, and after eating more than a dozen dishes, he is just enough to fill his stomach.

During the chat, Hobert learned that every meal at the Viscount's family was eaten like this. He commented with a smile: "It doesn't feel like home."

The whole process is like eating in a high-end restaurant.

Graylingt smiled bitterly and said: "There is no way. I have been told since I was a child that the Viscount should eat like this. If I simplified the dining process, then tomorrow there will be rumors that Viscount Graylingt will go bankrupt."
