What is this place?Audrey asked without much change in her expression, as if she was asking about the location of the dance tonight.
Boley Dellaw, who claims to be the president of the Psychological Alchemy, also turned his eyes out the window and said with a smile:
This is the city in everyone's heart.
There is it where there are people.
Audrey nodded thoughtfully:
In other words, can you enter here from any corner of human society?
Dellaw rubbed his wheelchair and said:
right.
Without explaining much, he pointed to the sidewalks outside the carriage window:
Everything here has corresponding psychological symbols, and they are called 'beast desire'.
Beast desire... Audrey repeated the word silently, and looked further while maintaining a dignified sitting posture.
Among those pedestrians, in addition to werewolf, there were bears walking upright, cats with lazy expressions, weird people with colorful spiders on their faces, giant mice with red eyes, pythons spitting cores, and some canine creatures that looked at every passerby around with a mating desire...
They either wear top hats and windbreakers or exquisite and complex dark long skirts, trying their best to imitate humans from every detail, but they cannot truly look like humans.
The carriage drove under the dim night, walking through this pedestrian and various Gothic buildings, and soon arrived at the church in the center of the city.
The church is more than 80 meters high and is supported by giant black pillars. Each giant pillar is inlaid with a certain number of skulls. Some of them come from humans and some from different creatures, but they all aim their hollow eyes below, as if they are staring at every creature entering the church.
Like most of the buildings here, the details of this church are exquisite, but what makes them tend to be nightmares, thrillers, horrors, and mysterious elements.
Walking off the carriage and passing through the main entrance, Audrey saw a magnificent but empty hall.
Deep in the hall, a huge cross stands, surrounded by a gray-white statue of a dragon.
Unlike ordinary churches, there are no rows of seats for believers to pray, and there is no place to place candlesticks. There is only a small long table in front of the dragon statue, with five seats on both sides of the long table, with the upper head and the lowest bottom empty.
Boley Dellaw operated the wheelchair and came to the top of the long table, then pointed to his left:
Please sit down.
Audrey followed him slowly, glanced at each other, casually pulled a chair open and sat down.
She is not close or far from the president of the Psychological Alchemy Society. She not only shows her vigilance just right, but also seems guilty.
Boley Dellaw raised his hands and held the pestle to the surface of the long table:
Miss Audrey, I want to ask you something.
Speaking.Audrey's head turned slightly and responded to the other's gaze with her turquoise eyes.
Drau nodded slightly and said:
I wonder how you were promoted to Sequence 4 ‘Manipulator’, where did you get your potion formula and extraordinary traits?
Audrey replied frankly:
From a deal.
One client wanted to get help from the ‘Audience’ path to the Demigod, and prepaid the ‘Manipulator’ potion formula and extraordinary traits.
Dellaw suddenly laughed:
Is this kind of thing actually happening?The conditions are generous like a father looking for excuses to give his daughter a gift.
Can you tell me what help you have provided?
Siege and kill another demigod.In this matter, mental control is very important.Audrey explained two simple sentences.
Her attitude was very calm, as if she was talking about what the homework assigned by the tutor was.
Dellaw's long and fluffy eyebrows moved:
Success?
The results are obvious.Audrey gave the answer relatively tactfully.
Dellaw looked her up and down a few times, as if he realized that the noble girl on his left was actually a manipulator who could kill other demigods.
Audrey read out his thoughts and added:
I'm just one of the participants.
Dellaw nodded and said:
Do you know where the ‘Manipulator’ potion formula and extraordinary traits come from?
He did not explain this issue directly.Audrey gave the answer in a sentence that had been conceived long ago.
he?Can you tell me who he is?Dellaw asked after careful consideration.
Audrey has been guarding against the other party to separate his virtual personality and sneak into his spiritual island, but from the beginning to now, she has never noticed any abnormality.
This made her wonder if the other party didn't need to sneak in. Just observe the movements and stills of the collective subconscious sea around her, and she could see her truest thoughts.
She didn't cover up and replied calmly:
This involves my agreement with him. I think keeping promises should be a moral standard recognized by the whole world, and in mysticism, this involves a lot.
Speaking of this, Audrey took the initiative to say:
If you can't really believe me because of the concealment of this issue, I'm willing to accept it.
I can only be an ordinary member and exchange my contribution for psychological research materials that I can exchange for.
Dellaw smiled when he heard this:
Everyone has their own secrets, which is normal. What I need to evaluate is whether your secrets will affect the safe operation of the entire psychological alchemy.
He looked at Audrey deeply and said:
Then can you tell me how you met such a client?
I remember that I once reported to you that before joining the Psychological Alchemy Society, I had already contacted some people in the mystery circle and met several extraordinary people.Audrey said something really couldn't be true anymore.
As for the real logical order of the answers just now, it is another matter.
Moreover, the disappearance of Hewen Lambis originates from the investigation that Forth and Hug are a fact that both sides have not communicated but are absolutely recognized.
Dellaw took back his hands on the table and placed them between his chest and abdomen:
There is another question, when was the last time you met Herwin Lambis?
Audrey frowned slightly and said:
I remember you asked.
After Herwin Lambis's death, she did not immediately disconnect from the Psychological Alchemy, and still maintained a certain connection with the upper class through Hilbert, Stephen, Islant and others. When the war approached Beckland, she found that the members of her psychological research group could not be contacted for various reasons.
I need to confirm again in person.Dellaw said calmly.
Audrey nodded gently and said:
The last time I saw Commissioner Herwin Lambis was in Viscount Glylint's mansion, at that time, I hypnotized two extraordinary friends I knew, asking them why they were investigating Viscount Steford and who was the Lord's Messenger behind the scenes.
At that time, Commissioner Hewen Lambis was nearby to ensure that there was no accident in hypnosis. When he learned the answer, he quickly left.
I never saw him again after that day.
During the answer, Audrey was still guarding against the invasion of her spiritual island, but there was calm and nothing happened.
Not only did this not make Audrey feel relaxed, but she became more and more alert and even dared not think about anything related to Mr. Fool and World German Sparrow.
She was only sure that as long as she was in danger of exposure, Mr. Fool would definitely provide protection.
Consistent with the previous answer.Dellaw nodded slowly.
He then looked at Audrey's green eyes and said frankly:
I cannot trace the source of the extraordinary characteristics in your body by my occult, which shows that there is an unexpected existence behind that provider.
Audrey nodded slightly hard, saying that she thought so.
I can't force you not to cooperate or trade with other extraordinary people. This is unrealistic. I just hope you promise not to disclose to anyone about the psychological alchemy. At least, when you want to entrust some tasks, you have to package them and cover up the secrets.Drau said calmly withdrew his gaze.
Audrey responded without hesitation:
I promise not to tell creatures who do not have corresponding authority about the matters related to the Psychological Alchemy.
She took the initiative to amplify the concept of humans to living creatures to fill in the loopholes in the promises.
As soon as she finished speaking, she felt one thought after another appearing in her spiritual island.
These thoughts intertwined and turned into an illusory net, seeping into Audrey's spiritual island, turning into her subconscious.
Because this web of restrictions comes from Audrey's own spirituality, even if she becomes an angel, she will be unable to clear her. She will lose the willingness to communicate related matters of the Psychological Alchemy when facing non-Psychological Alchemy members or Psychological Alchemy members with insufficient authority.
And she herself couldn't recognize this.
He did not invade my soul island, and my own words alone turned the promise into substance... While Audrey was shocked, the surface was not so obvious.
Of course, she was not completely restrained, because she was surprised that this method was an instinctive reaction of a manipulator.
Based on this, she suspected that either the city in the mind had problems, or that the president of the psychological Alchemy Society was more than the level of the saint.
Seeing Audrey make a promise, Dellaur pointed to the long table with satisfaction and said:
From now on, you will be a member of the Psychological Alchemist Review Team.
You can choose a personality mask as your code name.
As he spoke, seven gray, rather illusory, extremely cold masks appeared on the long table, five of which were placed in corresponding positions, as if they already had their masters.
There are two personality masks left, one is "fury" and the other is "arrogance".Drau introduced that they originated from the sacred sacred sacred creator of the Third Age.
Audrey thought for a second, then reached out to the personality mask without anger:
I choose ‘arrogance’.
Dellaw glanced at her and said with a low smile:
This was also the choice of Hervine Lambis at the time.
Boley Dellaw, who claims to be the president of the Psychological Alchemy, also turned his eyes out the window and said with a smile:
This is the city in everyone's heart.
