The Death List Novel - Chapter 42

Chapter 42 Banquet Occasionally
In the death list, in addition to the status bar, items, storage space, and exchange list. At this moment, another battle profession column appeared. In the Battle Profession column, there was only a single skill pattern.

Qin Lun focused his mind on the pattern and immediately received an introduction to the summoning skill.

Maiser Summoning: This summoning technique has an independent summoning space. When the summoned object is in the summoning space, the apostle can spend a small amount of energy to survive. Concretization of the summoned object requires a large amount of energy at one time, and the specific value depends on the summoned object’s HP level.

Maize Summoning Technique was a slave-type summoning technique. It was an Intermediate Grade Summoning Technique with a Summoning Contract. For the time being, it only had one Summoning Bar. This summoning technique can sign summoning contracts with creatures below Tier 4. It is limited to creatures with complete souls.

Slave Summoning Technique was one of the three main types of Summoning Techniques. The other two types were Equality Contract Summoning Technique and Sacrificial Summoning Technique. The sacrificial summoning technique was the easiest to sign a summoning contract, while the slave summoning technique was the most difficult to sign a summoning contract with the summoned object. As long as the summoned creature’s will was firm, it was almost impossible to sign a contract with any summoner.

Existing summoned item: Black Bear BEN, can be abandoned. The summoned creature’s HP was Level 3, belonging to a large land beast. After becoming a summoned creature, it ignored the limitations of its living environment. In an inappropriate living environment, the host needed to spend energy to survive. The duration of existence was limited by the owner’s energy, and after death, it returned to the summoning space.

Actually, Qin Lun didn’t know that he had taken advantage of the Golden Summoning Scroll this time. The Golden Summoning Scroll’s grade was very high, and it could hold the highest Tier 4 summoning creature, allowing him to enter an Intermediate Life Form.

Large ferocious beasts like BEN had actually reached the peak of ordinary creatures, and could even compete with some creatures that possessed special abilities. The lowest grade of a life that possessed special abilities and was out of the ordinary life category was Tier 4.

Shortly after Qin Lun stayed in his room, a servant came to inform him to attend the banquet.

Due to the large number of exorcists coming this time, Albert Castle did not arrange for the banquet to be held in the dining hall. Instead, it directly hosted a buffet in the main hall of the castle.

The dining table covered in white cloth surrounded the hall. Several small salons were scattered in the surrounding corners, and the center of the hall was treated as a dance hall. When Qin Lun entered the hall, the banquet had already begun. The servants of the castle were shuttling among the guests, providing food and drinks for everyone.

Qin Lun took a glass of red wine from the passing wine boy and walked to a corner by the window alone.

“Doctor Stan, you’re here. Come sit here!” Oddo’s voice came from a small salon beside him.

“Thank you!” Qin Lun rolled his eyes and sat down beside Oddo.

Before entering Maya Forest, it would be a good choice if he could get some secret information from these exorcists.

Apart from Qin Lun, there were only two exorcists in the small salon. One was Oddo, and the other was the female Big Mac exorcist he had seen during the day.

At first, Qin Lun’s line of sight was blocked and he didn’t see the Big Mac sitting behind the curtain. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have sat down anyway. The murderer’s intuition was very sharp. He always felt that this female exorcist had been paying attention to him in the afternoon. She really didn’t want to cause such a big trouble.

“You are Dr. Stan!” Unexpectedly, as soon as he sat down, the female exorcist looked at him with burning eyes. Her voice was deep and muffled, but her tone was rather respectful.

“This is’ Overlord Flower ‘Nova!” Oddo introduced Qin Lun with a smile.

The exorcists each had their own nicknames, like Oddo, who had the nickname “Bartender”. During the afternoon exchange, Qin Lun also knew that Oddo had defeated Catherine in the hotel industry not only because of his ample funds, but also because of his excellent bartending skills.

It’s no wonder he won against Catherine when he had plenty of money to hire younger and prettier waitresses and Oddo was able to mix good drinks.

If Oddo hadn’t followed the principle that exorcists didn’t affect the ordinary human world, he wouldn’t have used any other means to attack Catherine’s hotel. The middle-aged woman’s inn could not be opened anymore, so how could she survive until now?

“Hello, Miss Nova!” Qin Lun smiled and nodded to Overlord Flower. There was nothing strange on his face, but his neck was slightly stiff.

“Doctor Stan, this … is for you!” Nova keenly sensed Qin Lun’s rejection. After a moment of silence, she picked up a leather parcel from her feet and placed it on the coffee table, pushing it to the doctor.

“Ah? This … Thank you!” Qin Lun was slightly stunned. He habitually wanted to push him away, but he suddenly felt someone kicking him under the coffee table. The corner of his eyes immediately noticed that Oddo was winding at him, so he had no choice but to thank him.

Seeing that Qin Lun had accepted the gift, Nuova immediately smiled. The flesh on her face stretched out, as if she felt that there wasn’t enough food on the table. Overlord Flower stood up and went to the dining table to get food.

“Lady Nova is not giving you anything casually, Dr. Stan!” Oddo turned to look at the back of the Overlord Flower and explained to the confused doctor, “Do you remember Morrison?”

“Morrison? Of course I remember!” Qin Lun’s heart skipped a beat. Morrison was the epidemic patient who cooperated with him in the small town square.

“Morrison is Lady Nova’s nephew. She used this item to thank you for saving her nephew!” Oddo grinned. “When Morrison got sick, Lady Nova wasn’t in Odia Town. When she came back, you were already at the castle, and now you’re an exorcist. Of course, she will repay you!”

Qin Lun’s face was a little embarrassed. No wonder Overlord Flower had been paying attention to him all afternoon. It turned out that he was mistaken.

“Morrison is Lady Nova’s nephew? How old is Lady Nova this year?” Qin Lun suddenly thought of a question and asked with a strange expression.

“Lady Nova is probably in her fifties! I’m not too sure about the specifics. Why are you asking this?” Oddo looked at Qin Lun in surprise.

“Oh … more than fifty? Sir Oddo, what about you?” Qin Lun, who was drinking, almost choked.

“I’m a few years older than Nova. I’m 58 years old this year!” Oddo shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly.

“Oh!” Qin Lun was speechless. Oddo did not look like an old man of fifty-eight. As for Nova, although her figure was strange, if Oddo didn’t say anything, he really thought that the Overlord Flower was only thirty years old.

“Although an exorcist cannot live forever, most people live longer than ordinary people. As long as they are not seriously injured in battle, it is easy for an exorcist to live beyond 150 years of age.” Oddo seemed to understand what Qin Lun was thinking. He patted his shoulder and explained, “Nova and I can be said to be in our prime at our age!”

“What about Baron Albert and Bonny?” Qin Lun suddenly realized a very important question. His pupils constricted and he immediately asked Oddo.

‘”They’re about the same age and appearance. The Albert Clan is different from ordinary exorcists. I can’t say anything more about this. You’ll understand in the future!” Oddo frowned slightly, explained, and changed the subject, “Come, let’s see what Miss Nova has given you!”

Oddo happily opened Nova’s leather bag on the table and took out an exquisite gun.

“Oh, the Overlord Flower actually gave you her Blood Wheel!” Oddo looked at the short flintlock in his hand and sighed in admiration.

Qin Lun took the gun and looked at it curiously. The flintlock was somewhat like an enlarged revolver with a thick barrel and a rotary magazine of four barrels in the middle.

“This bullet is filled with silver marbles. It has great lethality against witches and their magical creatures. Moreover, it has a large attack range. It is very suitable for newbies like you!” Oddo took out a bullet the size of an index finger from his leather bag and placed it in front of Qin Lun.

“I think I should thank Lady Nova when she comes back!” Qin Lun looked at the Blood Wheel and said.

Compared to the Wind Spirit Crossbow in his storage space, the value of this flintlock gun was of course far inferior, and it could not be brought into the shattered starry sky. However, in this world, it was more useful than the [Wind Spirit Crossbow], and it seemed to be more powerful than the [Wind Spirit Crossbow].

“Oh, right!” Qin Lun put down the Blood Wheel and pretended to be indifferent. “Lord Oddo, the exorcists of the Odia region have often fought against the Maya witches. They must have made great sacrifices. It seems that even the current successor of the Albert family has lost their lives!”

“You mean that young man Stephen!” Oddo’s face darkened as he sighed, “The members of the Albert family are too strong. A young man like Stephen shouldn’t die in a single trial!”

“Was it just Stephen acting alone?” Qin Lun narrowed his eyes and a cold smile flashed across his face.

“Yes, when Baron Albert reported Stephen’s death to the Exorcist Organization, everyone was stunned!” Oddo shook his head and stopped talking about it.

In that case, not all members of the Albert family knew the truth about Stephen. Perhaps Baron Albert was the only one who knew the truth.

Qin Lun rubbed his temples and felt that there was a huge secret behind Stephen’s death. Only then did the doctor realize that he had made the wrong choice. Perhaps he shouldn’t have agreed to Baron Albert joining the Exorcist Organization so early.

Qin Lun thought of the white figure he had seen in the cemetery, if not everyone in the Albert family knew the truth about Stephen. That meant that his initial judgment was wrong, and that the white silhouette was very likely to be different from Baron Albert’s position.

Judging from the specific situation of the graveyard encountering the statue ghost, the white figure seemed to be warning him of the sudden attack of the statue ghost. In other words, it was not testing itself for the Albert family, but for another purpose …
