After listening to Jenna's description, Lumian twisted his body as usual and asked in surprise:
"How do you know so much?"
It was fine at first. Since Janna had talked to "Iron Hammer" Eiter about the performance in the room on the second floor, it was normal for her to have a certain understanding of the layout of the room and the positions of the thugs. But what about the ventilation duct in the kitchen of the dance hall that can be climbed to the second floor, what about jumping from the windowsill of the next room to the bathroom, and what about the bulge on the outer wall of the corresponding room, which is a vulgar song
Is this information that an underground singer who performs exaggerated performances can obtain? She doesn't need to know it!
Janet, who was wearing black eyeshadow and a fake mole, had a smug expression on her face: "You don't need to care why I know this. Don't look at things you shouldn't look at, don't listen to things you shouldn't listen to, and don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."
She slightly modified what Lumian had said in the afternoon and returned it to him, which made her very happy.
Only those who have tried to sneak into assassinations or have considered how to escape in extreme situations will pay attention to these details and observe purposefully... What kind of situation would Janna be in? Well, her ability to detect similar environments is not much worse than that of a "Hunter"...
The assassination-oriented sequence actually requires the collection of environmental information.
····Assassination·····
Lumian had many thoughts in his mind, and he planned to trick Janna. He smiled and said:
"So you are an assassin! Ah."
He put an emphasis on the word "assassin".
Jenna's expression changed, and her smile froze. "How did you know that?" she blurted out in astonishment.
“With your brain,” Lumian replied with a smile.
There are some sequences that are good at observing the environment. He just boldly guessed that Janna was an "assassin" because he was preparing to carry out an assassination and remembered that Ryan and the others mentioned that in the central and northern parts of Intis, especially Trier, "wielding maidens" was a more common way. After all, he would not lose anything if he was wrong.
At the same time, Lumian muttered in his heart:
"Not long after arriving in Trier, I met an "assassin" and saved her. This can be regarded as a manifestation of the law of aggregation of extraordinary characteristics."
"Janna is definitely not at Sequence 7, she's not a witch." Otherwise, even if she was left with no strength by the spells on the paper, she could still beat Hedsey with her mystical skills. The name of the witch shows that she is good at spells and curses, which is also what Auror wrote in her notes.
“She shouldn’t be a Sequence 8 Instigator. How could there be an Instigator who was successfully defrauded by me repeatedly? But I can’t rule out this possibility. Maybe Janna was dumber before, and she improved her IQ by relying on the Instigator. Moreover, she took the initiative to provide me with the information about Hammer, so she has a certain suspicion of instigation.”
Haha, Janna is a female, so she doesn’t have to worry about changing her gender after taking the witch’s potion.
Where did she get her magic potion? Red Boots Franka gave it to her. Could this be another Beyonder from the "Witch" path
It would be fine if Franka only had Sequence 8, but if she had Sequence 7, she would be a witch. Who knows if she was a man or a woman before? Uh, her attitude towards women is abnormal, and she has an ambiguous relationship with Janna.
Janna silently thought back to what she had just said, but she didn't find any information about her sequence.
She decided not to think too much about the things she couldn't figure out, and kindly reminded Lumian:
"If you want to attack Hammer Eto in the bathroom, you must think carefully. I heard from Franka that Eto is a fighter."
He is better at close-range combat than any other sequence, and can weaken the effects of some extraordinary abilities directed at him purely by relying on his body.
Although you can fight, I think that if you fight him in a place like the bathroom which is not spacious enough, there is a high probability that you will be beaten to death on the spot.
“Ma’am, are you trying to persuade me or provoke me? It seems that you still have some potential as an instigator.” Lumian said whatever he wanted to say, not just criticizing in his heart.
He discovered that Franka knew more about "Iron Hammer" Et than Baron Brinell did, and mentioned a key point that the latter did not mention.
If we ignore the possibility that Franka had a private conflict with "Hammer" Et, then Franka either has another background, or is more trusted by the Savoy leader than Baron Brinell, and has obtained more occult knowledge and sequence intelligence.
Janna was stunned again: "You also know 'instigator'!"
Are you still a country boy? How can you know so much about the supernatural? Franca said that he is wanted by the authorities and it seems that he has been involved in supernatural events.
"I know more than you think." Lumian smiled and said this. Suddenly, he recalled a nickname that belonged to him not long ago! "Mystic illiterate".
Restraining his momentary sadness, Lumian seriously thought about Janna's reminder: Indeed, although "Hunter" is also good at fighting and fighting, if you exclude traps, "provoke" and other abilities, close combat is definitely still this. However, the name reflects the "fighter" in the field of expertise, especially in a closed and narrow environment, unable to exert their own combat wisdom, and it is difficult to accomplish a good show of the weak defeating the strong.
Taking into account the change in flexibility brought by "Dancer" and the application of many super-standard movements, Lumian felt that he could only hold on and would not fail in the short term. If he wanted to kill "Hammer" Et, he could only hope to use "Corrupted Mercury" to stab him and run away.
But this... what's the difference between this and fighting "Bald" Harman... there's no need to consider the presence of ten gangster thugs and ten pistols.
Lumian took inventory of the items on his person to see if there was anything that could be useful in such a war plan: more than 1,700 Fel Gold... Corrupted Mercury... Water monster's blood, water monster's poisonous scales... A bottle of narcotics that made Janna weak all over... A bottle of irritating gas that could remove the effects of the drug... A liquid of unknown function
A bottle of dagger left behind by that pervert, a... ceremonial silver dagger... a few white bandages... As he thought about it, a plan gradually took shape in Lumian's mind.
He twisted his body to the rhythm and lowered his head slightly, looking at Janna: "That bathroom is big, right?"
"Not big." Janna replied affirmatively, "Except for the bathtub, toilet and sink, there is only enough space for four to five people.
In other words, if Lumian and Hammer Et engage in close combat there, there will be no room for anyone else to stand.
"Is there a curtain outside the bathtub?"
Lumian asked.
"Yes." Janna thought for a moment and said, "Do you have a gun? I think it would be better to use a gun. It's safer and more reliable."
No. Lumian shook his head.
"You still want to take action tonight?" Janna sneered.
She paused for a second and said, "If you really want to kill Hammer At tonight, I can lend you my pistol..."
"You have a gun on you." This time it was Lumian's turn to be surprised.
He looked from head to toe but couldn't tell that Janna was hiding a gun: this "flashy girl" was wearing a white short top with a very wide neckline so that you could vaguely see her bra, and a fluffy off-white skirt with black English boots that didn't reach her knees. Moreover, she would keep lifting her legs high when dancing, so it was impossible for her to tie the gun bag to the inside of her thigh.
Lumian figured the only place to hide the pistol was in the boots.
Janna thought Charles was asking her why she carried a pistol with her, and replied with disdain and a sigh: "I perform in a dance hall in a place like the market district. Do you think those gangsters are all good people? Do you think they won't get hot-headed and want to do something to me? Those bastards can't think of good things every day. When their brains are filled with that thing, they don't even consider that I know Franca and have a good relationship with her. "Twenty, if deterrence was always useful, there wouldn't be so many crimes!" As she spoke, Janna caught a drumbeat, half squatted down, and touched inside her boots.
She stood up quickly, twisting her body against Lumian's, and grasping his naturally drooping and gently swaying hand.
The feel of cold metal and thick wood immediately entered Lumian's mind.
Lumian No
She calmly withdrew her hand and put the gun into her trouser pocket. After completing the task, Janna continued, "I bought it from a friend with most of my savings when I first arrived at the market area and before I met Franca. That damn black market merchant even wanted me to accompany him.
I kicked him in the calf and he screamed in pain."
Always carry a gun for self-defense... You are quite alert, otherwise, before you met Franka, you would have been controlled by those gangsters, and you might even work as a dancer or streetwalker...
Lumian smiled and responded, "Well done!"
Seeing that the accompaniment music was coming to an end, Janna stopped talking.
As the drumbeats stopped, Lumian watched Janna walk towards the stage, and he left the dance floor and returned to the circle outside.
Taking the opportunity to go to the bathroom, he checked and familiarized himself with the pistol that Janet gave him. It was a very small revolver with a short barrel, suitable for carrying and hiding.
It is generally iron black in color, the grip is made of walnut, and there are six bullets in total.
After playing with the pistol for a while, Lumian discovered a problem: he did not have enough shooting experience, and his previous use of a shotgun mainly relied on the covering fire of lead bullets.
Forget it. I never thought I could kill "Hammer" Eit with one shot. It would be enough to injure and weaken him. At such a close distance, with my grip strength and some shooting experience, I couldn't miss much.
In the bathroom environment, I only had one shot, and Hammer Tad wouldn't let me fire a second shot... Lumian made a quick decision.
As soon as he came out of the bathroom, he took advantage of the fact that no one was around and walked towards the kitchen of the Mill Ballroom.
