Chapter 205 The Custodian Messenger
"Okay, just wait to become the queen." Old Blue made a promise and asked:
"Xiao Fu, do you have a messenger? An occult messenger."
"Ah? Messenger? What is that..." Freni's confused eyes revealed everything.
Old Blue held his head with his hands. It was too shameful for Xiao Fu to be a demigod! She didn't even get a complete mystical education, which was equivalent to half an mystical education! But considering the miserable state of the Jacob family... Don't expect too much. It's good enough that Xiao Fu is alive!
“Well, you… remember to use your current identity to learn more basic knowledge of the mysticism. You still need to continue to make up for this aspect.
"When I perform the ceremony later, watch carefully and learn whatever you can."
……
Old Blue built a spiritual wall, prepared the altar, lit the candles and dripped essential oils, then chanted in Elvish:
"I!
"Call in my name:
"A spirit wandering in the void, a friendly creature that can be commanded, and an extraordinary being with a strong ability to survive."
That's right, the spell that Old Blue wanted to use was one of the ones that Klein had eliminated! The target was a safe-like creature made of stacked bones. It moved very slowly, but was friendly enough. After Klein "agreed" and "rejected", it actually didn't have a temper! Uh, maybe it was angry but didn't show it? This also meant that the creature was not dangerous. Well, as long as it wasn't a four-headed angel, it would be fine.
Whoosh! The candle flame stretched suddenly, and bones emerged from the ground one by one, forming a thick safe-like creature.
Old Bruce looked at the safe in front of him that was half a person's height with a very satisfied expression. It made him feel so safe. If all else fails, he could summon it out to use as a shield!
As for the speed of sending the letter... it is not a problem at all. As long as accurate, clear and real-time positioning is provided, the messenger can appear immediately no matter where he is in the spiritual world. This is also the reason why after reciting the spell, the slow-moving thing can appear in reality instantly.
All you have to do is prepare a few more bells with the "Summon Messenger" spell imprinted on them and give them to people you know. It's similar to the function of the Azik Copper Whistle. Well, I have to go find Ikanser later anyway, so just ask him to help!
Besides, I am a VIP user of the spirit world! Gray Mist will also give me some face! It shouldn't be a problem to speed up our messenger, right?
Uh... Klein doesn't have much "divine blood" left. When can I collect some more?
"Will you be my messenger?" asked Old Blue in Elvish.
The safe quickly showed its willingness and began to crawl slowly.
"You don't have to crawl, I'll come over." Old Blue took the initiative to walk in front of it, patted its box-like head and said:
"From now on, your name will be 'Safe', and your nickname will be 'Xiaobao'. By the way, what do you want for helping me deliver the letter?"
When Fro watched Old Blue setting up the ceremony and chanting the spell, he thought it was pretty good. But when the big safe appeared, he was immediately shocked. Is this a messenger? It must have taken two steps just now, right? Did it move a centimeter? I didn't expect Old Blue to stumble!
Before she could go forward and "persuade" him to change the contract partner, she saw Old Blue nod and pull out a bloody cane from the void! Hiss! Which victim's remains are these again? Has the old man "eaten people" again recently?
What shocked her even more was that the safe actually…actually opened its door like an ordinary safe! At the same time, it made a sound of joy, pleasure, and admiration! Although she couldn't understand what it was saying, the emotion it wanted to express was so real and urgent!
"Very good, it seems that you also understand its value. Keep it for me and never allow it to be lost." Old Blue took out a piece of imitation parchment, and the fountain pen in his right hand glowed with golden light. He was using the ability of "notary" to draw up a contract! In fact, the contract in the Sun Realm is the most common, effective, and widely recognized contract in the Extraordinary World, because the honorific name of the "Eternal Blazing Sun" clearly describes it: the God of Contract!
Well, of course, the "sun" will not bear witness for Old Blue, but it doesn't matter, the "chaos puddle" is of sufficient status! It contains the "wool" from the "fierce sheep"!
“You must not peep into the letters;
“Letters must not be thrown away;
"...
“Help the contractor resist attacks when necessary;
"..."
Old Blue drafted a basic version of the contract. Well, it is a basic operation for the courier to help block damage! This will be the new rule of the "Courier World" in the future! The "Fool" said!
Seeing that the terms were almost finalized, he pressed the parchment against the "safe's" head to let the other party understand the contents of the contract. This was a necessary step.
Suddenly, the safe shook a few times, and characters began to appear automatically on the blank space of the parchment!
"The 'custodian' requests a permanent contract, a symbiotic contract... requests help in restoring one's status... all one needs to do is put in enough valuable items...
"At this stage, the contractor needs to 'deposit' at least one valuable item in the 'custodian', and the ownership remains unchanged.
“The contractor can take out and replace this item at any time.
"The 'keeper' will keep the item safe and borrow some of its properties..."
Keeper? What? Person? Old Blue was a little confused, but he could roughly guess some information. This safe might be a path from the "outside world" and not one of the extraordinary paths in the twenty-two paths... Just by "keeping" it, can you gain abilities? Interesting... If Meng is thrown in... Well, it should be waste and will not bring any benefits.
Knock, knock, knock. Old Blue knocked on the thick bone door of the "Custodian" and said:
"Whether I can help you or not depends on your performance. If we can't benefit each other... then I will have to change the contract partner. I heard that there is a Ms. Tinicole in the spirit world. She can deliver letters very quickly and can help in battle..."
Chi! A string of names suddenly appeared at the end of the parchment:
“Neferutari Smijanic.
"After the 'keeper' keeps the 'magic staff', the message can be sent very quickly. Please witness my activity."
This... Freni saw that even the safe was deceived and sold, and suddenly recalled her past... Uh... She was not deceived, but was beaten up and came here "willingly"! Hiss! Can't tell who has a higher status! No, no, a safe is definitely not as useful as herself!
After signing his name, Old Blue patted the safe on the head and said with a smile:
"Xiao Fu, see? This is the contracted messenger. Isn't it simple? Do you want to have your own messenger?"
"No, no," Freni almost didn't react, and immediately said:
"I will only report the situation here to you regularly! I will only write to you! It is enough to use your messenger! I don't need my own messenger at all!"
"Xiao Fu, your speech skills have improved, but you are still so exaggerated..." Old Blue held his forehead with his hand. He found that his new messenger was still standing there, and couldn't help asking:
“Didn’t I give the cane to you for safekeeping? Why is it still here?
"Hmm? Delivering a letter? Waiting for the letter to be delivered? You are really hardworking, Xiao Bao..."
Old Bru paused for a moment, picked up the pen again, quickly wrote the letter, and then handed it to Xiao Bao. After watching the other party leave, he said to Xiao Fu:
"Xiao Fu, it's lunch time. I've made an appointment with Klein to have lunch. Let's go together and chat.
"I will return to Tingen later. If you have any problems, remember to write to me. If your identity is exposed or you are in a hopeless situation or in mortal danger... I will come to save you."
