That night, Backlund, the Bravehearts Bar.
Lin Ruo naturally didn't recall his past entanglements with Will. At this moment, he had already finished dinner at the Sherlock Moriarty Detective Agency and was taking Klein to the place where he had arranged to meet Sharron.
It was still the familiar card room, and still the familiar Maric.
However, unlike the last time Lin Ruo met him, Maric was no longer surrounded by half-Zombies. He stood upright and seemed very restrained.
"Good evening, Your Highness Lin Ruo."
A slightly cold voice sounded from the air, followed by a figure outlining itself from the air.
Sharron, still wearing a black court dress and a matching soft hat, gave Lin Ruo a very proper salute. Maric, standing beside her, also saluted.
Lin Ruo's gaze fell on Sharron. Looking at the beautiful girl who seemed more like a doll than a living person, he also smiled gently and said, "Good evening, Sharron, Maric. I heard that Reinette Tinekerr wants to see me?"
"Yes, Your Highness Lin Ruo." Sharron nodded, her face still without much expression. She suddenly saluted Lin Ruo again and said, "Thank you very much for informing us of our teacher's news… If it is convenient for you, our teacher would like to meet you sometime in March next year. The specific time and place are up to you to decide."
Next year in March?
Lin Ruo was stunned for a moment, but he wasn't too surprised. After all, in the original story, Reinette Tinekerr became Klein's messenger next year, and calculating it this way, the timing was actually right.
But the time and place are up to me… Lin Ruo suddenly smiled and said, "I understand. I will write to you to inform you of the specific time and place after I have thought about it."
He paused and said, "I heard that you need my help with something?"
"Yes, Your Highness Lin Ruo." Sharron nodded and recounted the affairs of the Rose School of Thought of Thought and their upcoming hunting plan without any concealment, finally saying: "If possible, I hope you can assist us in surrounding and killing that hedonistic demigod. He is a Sequence 4 Marionettist, and I need his characteristics… As a reward, we will pay you with a Beyonder item. Its name is [Unshadowed Crucifix]…"
"Wait." Lin Ruo was really stunned this time. He looked at Sharron suspiciously and tentatively asked, "The [Unshadowed Crucifix] you mentioned, does it possess powerful and pure purification abilities? If Beyonders wear it, even Sequence 3s will degenerate into ordinary people after wearing it for more than six hours?"
Sharron was stunned for a moment, then revealed a look of realization and said, "Yes, Your Highness Lin Ruo, it is exactly as you said."
So, it really was the crucifix from the original story that witnessed the fall of the ancient Sun God, was stained with divine blood, and even gave Klein another opportunity to court death, even having a conversation with the ancient Sun God across time and space?
Shouldn't it be in the hands of the Loen royal family?
Lin Ruo was a little dumbfounded. After being dumbfounded, he felt a strong sense of being arranged.
He was just about to wash his account and start over, and was wondering how to get the crucifix, when this thing actually came to him.
It really was him arranging himself without any concealment!
Lin Ruo didn't know how to complain for a moment, but that didn't prevent him from confirming the details. "Did your teacher give you this Beyonder item?"
Based on the effects of the [Unshadowed Crucifix] alone, Lin Ruo didn't think that Sharron and Maric would bring it with them when they fled in a hurry.
"Yes, it was indeed given to us by our teacher." Sharron obviously didn't intend to hide anything, or rather, she had already understood something through Lin Ruo's reaction, and honestly said: "After I and our teacher re-established contact, our teacher gave me this Beyonder item and asked me to use it as a reward to ask you to deal with the hedonistic demigod of the Rose School of Thought of Thought."
Lin Ruo raised his eyebrows and asked, "Did He tell you anything else?"
"Our teacher didn't explain anything else." Sharron shook her head.
Lin Ruo fell into thought.
Obviously, judging from Reinette Tinekerr's attitude, no matter how the [Unshadowed Crucifix] ended up in His hands, the other party had most likely been instructed by him before he lost his memory.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be such a coincidence that the thing was sent to him at this critical moment.
Like Reinette Tinekerr, there was also Bonoa, or rather, Roselle. The other party also sent the key to his hands at a suitable time, and even allowed Lin Ruo to have a conversation with the past [Him] across time and space.
As for Pallez Zoroast, Lin Ruo couldn't really figure out how much this old man knew and how much he had been instructed.
Thinking about it now, Lin Ruo felt that Grandpa Pallez was a bit like the village chief in a beginner's village in a game. If it weren't for his existence, Lin Ruo would have been completely clueless about finding his memories in the early stages, without even a direction.
And besides these three people, have others been instructed?
Lin Ruo thought of Adam, thought of the Evernight Goddess, thought of the True Creator, and as he thought, he suddenly laughed.
"It really wasn't in vain to smear the title of Fate Dominator…"
Lin Ruo exhaled, not annoyed, after all, arranging himself was not a shameful thing. He would know all the truth after all his memories were restored. Now, he would just accept any arrangements!
Anyway, it didn't seem to be a bad thing at the moment.
Thinking this way, Lin Ruo looked at Sharron and Maric and smiled, "When are we taking action?"
Sharron and Maric exchanged glances. Although they weren't surprised that Lin Ruo would agree to help, they were obviously in a good mood.
The former quickly said, "We plan to act this Sunday."
"Okay." Lin Ruo had no objections to this. He nodded, then glanced at Klein next to him and smiled, "However, the encirclement is unnecessary. Just leave that demigod to me… As for the other pursuers, you can take care of them. I think Sherlock can also provide some assistance to you in this matter."
Lin Ruo wasn't arrogant, but firstly, he was still confident in dealing with a Sequence 4, and secondly, facing a demigod of the same pathway, Sharron and Maric might not really be able to help. Thirdly, with Lin Ruo's abilities, with Sharron and Maric around, he wouldn't be able to let go, so it would be better for him to work alone, or bring in a reliable ally as a backup?
Lin Ruo, who always sought stability in his actions, thought of a certain useful Little Red, and then suppressed this idea.
After all, he had been freeloading off Medici a bit too much recently. Although his favorability seemed to have not only not decreased but also increased, he didn't plan to pull Medici in to help again before seeing Huang Beibei.
Hmm, right, Mr. Azik said in his last letter that He seemed to be coming to Backlund to find his memories… Lin Ruo immediately felt that he had found a suitable person to watch the battle.
Sharron and Maric were both stunned for a moment. In their plan, they hadn't really expected Lin Ruo to help them kill a demigod alone.
However, since Lin Ruo had said so, Sharron and Maric exchanged glances and ultimately didn't refuse.
After all, being able to free up their hands to hunt other people could not only solve the crisis, but also obtain the characteristics needed for Maric's advancement.
The former looked at Klein and said, "Mr. Sherlock, the previous agreement still stands."
As for the content of the agreement, it naturally referred to Klein assisting them in surrounding and killing a Sequence 5.
As for the reward, they had previously discussed paying in gold pounds, totaling two thousand gold pounds.
So Klein also smiled.
