The fat man was very greedy and put the 100 gold pounds into his arms carelessly, but his words also showed sincerity.

Azathoth naturally would not believe the other party's words. At the beginning of the conversation, he used the two abilities of [Observer] and [Lie Correction] to examine the person in front of him.

【From the observer's perspective, the fat man's tone and demeanor were normal, his breathing was even, and his mask did not shake at all, which proved that his facial reaction was not large and the possibility of committing fraud was extremely low.

The [Lie Correction] ability, which can see the truth in deception, also proves this.

Azathoth also thought about using [astrology] to divine the true identity of the fat man, but after seeing the second clause of the rule,"It is forbidden to peek into the true identity of others," he chose to give up.

Azathoth has set a rule from a long time ago, that is, do not underestimate any details of the hidden world. It is very likely that a careless decision will kill you. The rules on the parchment seem to be just a few sentences. , but if there really is a power similar to the 'Word Spirit' that can punish those who violate the regulations, wouldn't it put yourself in a dangerous situation?

The two abilities [Observer] and [Lie Correction] can only be used after making sure that the nine laws are not violated.

"Oh, is it so? Then I'll wait and see."Azathos smiled and signaled.

Because he had just earned 100 gold pounds, the fat man became more enthusiastic and said:"Don't be anxious, brother, it's going to be fast, it's going to be fast, there will always be people who can't help it."

"ah……"

At this time, a shrill scream suddenly sounded in the banquet hall.

Azathoth followed the sound and looked over, and saw a man being cut off by his waist, with blood spraying out. The severe pain made his screams as shrill as a hungry ghost, and the flowing blood also filled his eyes with despair. Finally died in torture.

Soon the butler appeared and took the maid to deal with the scene.

What's going on? Azatos had doubts in his mind. At this moment, he saw the fat man's disdainful eyes, and he couldn't help but move.

"Did you expect that this person would be cut in half? Was he killed because he violated the nine laws on the parchment?"

"Of course, I had contact with him before I made a deal with you, brother.……"A flash of anger flashed in the fat man's eyes, but it was not obvious because he was wearing a mask,"But he didn't believe it and called me a fool, saying it was just a few provisions. As long as it was done covertly, what would happen if it was violated? , Hahaha, you can see such idiots in every secret gathering. Not long after they entered the sequence, they gained abilities that were superior to ordinary people. They always thought that they were very smart and great, but they didn’t know that in the secret world , People like them die the fastest."

Although Fatty did not answer this question directly, Azathoth already understood that that person was cut in half because he violated these nine laws.

This can also show that from then on The information that the fat man bought for 100 gold pounds was not wrong. There is indeed a power similar to the spirit spirit here. No matter how covert you are, as long as you violate the nine laws on the parchment, you will be severely punished.

This reminded Azathoth of the fourth paragraph in the previous 'Divination Poetry', 'Don't worry, because there is a law. '

Obviously this law refers to the nine laws on the parchment.

"Sure enough, in the hidden world, one must be cautious and not be too clever, otherwise one may inadvertently violate taboos and cause disaster."

Azathos thought of Senior Nart and the unlucky guy who was chopped in half, and he became more and more cautious.

The body was quickly cleaned up by the housekeeper and the maid, and the secret party returned to its original appearance. Death In their opinion, it was just an insignificant episode.

The fat man came up enthusiastically and said:"Brother, you came to this party to spend money to buy something secret. Tell me what you want." , maybe I know"

"Forget it, I'll take a look around. Azathoth shook his head and rejected the fat man's kindness.

Before attending this secret gathering, Azathoth had already set several rules for himself. One of them was to never buy more than two copies from the same person. information, because it is easy to be locked.

The fat man looked regretful, but due to the existence of the nine rules, since the other party did not want to buy it, there was no point in further entanglement, and finally chose to leave to find the next target.

……

……

Azathoth was also hanging out at a secret party. Everyone was wearing masks, and some people were wearing windbreakers. Even their gender could not be distinguished, but they hid themselves deeply.

Azathoth is actually looking for the cloaked man and the masked man who talked about the secret party. The identity of the masked man is unclear, but he is evil from beginning to end. The identity of the cloaked man also makes Azathoth very worried. He cared, because when he was talking about the incident that happened to Duke Dylan, he reacted very excitedly. There might be something hidden in this.

Although everyone wore masks, with the [Observer], Azathoth was confident that he could identify these two people.

However, before Azathoth could find them, he was stopped by a person wearing a pumpkin mask. , the other party said in a slightly nervous voice:"Sir, I want to sell you a secret, which is information about a secret organization. I don't know if you are interested."

Azathoth used [Observer] to observe the other party,

Judging from the figure, she should be a woman, about 30 years old. Her tone was weak and she looked very nervous. Listening to the frequency of her heart beating, she also seemed very nervous about whether the deal could be concluded.

Azathoth was a little strange at first. According to the preaching priest, knowledge is power, and the hidden worldThe information is very valuable. Just the information about a"Historical and Relics Investigation Agency" is worth 150 gold pounds. Logically speaking, there should be no worries about selling it. There will always be buyers. Why should the other party be so nervous.

But after thinking about it, I realized that the information of the secret organization can be said to be very valuable, or it can be said to be very worthless, because it cannot be directly converted into its own power. It is a pity to discard it if it is tasteless, but Azathoth still decided He wanted to buy this secret, because after he became a formal member of the Hermitage of Law, he set three goals, the third of which was to figure out the distribution of forces in the secret world, let alone two months ago [Astrology 】There was a revelation that something big was going to happen to Bai Lanklin, but he didn’t even know how many secret organizations there were in this city.

"Oh, ma'am, I'm interested, I just don't know the price."Azathos smiled.
