Capítulo 176: Jane's Intentions

Upon seeing this, Ebner subconsciously activated his Spirit Vision. Then, he saw a figure appear on the wall behind the gas lamp and above the desk. It was a figure formed from a dark and illusory fog that looked like a black cloak!

Who was it?! Before Ebner had time to think carefully, he wanted to activate the Ring of Light and cast Holy Light first.

But at that moment, the figure suddenly shook the air and said, "Ebner, I'm Jane. Don't attack me."

"Jane?" Ebner stopped rubbing the ring on his finger, but he did not stop. Instead, he turned the Holy Light he was about to activate into the Purification Halo that enveloped him. Due to his excellent control, the sudden appearance of the golden halo only formed a barrier of light around his body and did not affect the other uninvited guest.

"I know that this visit was too sudden, and I should've greeted you in advance… However, my body is still on the ship outside Pritz Harbor, so I can only have my Spirit Body fly over to communicate with you." As she spoke, the illusory figure made of black fog raised a hat made of the same black fog. It tried to construct a simple appearance, but it didn't succeed. It only produced facial features that were rough like a simple painting.

The black mist figure spread her hands helplessly. She looked at Ebner, who was surrounded by golden light, and continued, "I think you still remember that when we met at Enmat Harbor Cemetery, I said that I was going out to sea to help an important figure find something, right? Also, my father helped me apply a fake identity in Bayam when he was alive, so I'm now called Jane Miranda."

She said this both to gain Ebner's trust and to lay the groundwork for what she would say later.

Although her voice isn't right, and her appearance isn't too clear, this is indeed something only Jane and I know… She has already become a Spirit Medium, right? But Spirit Mediums have such powerful abilities? She can even be a part-time messenger… Ebner sighed inwardly and didn't let down his guard as he asked,

"Jane, you became a Spirit Medium? So soon?"

"Not as impressive as you. Even overseas, I've heard of Backlund's reputation as a Hero Detective!" Jane first teased with a smile before answering, "Yes, I've gained quite a lot from helping that important figure. I've already become a Spirit Medium."

"But it's only been a month…" Ebner clearly remembered that the last time he saw Jane at Enmat Harbor was in the middle of July, and now it was only August 15th. It was only a month.

Although it had only taken him a month to go from "Student of Ratiocination" to "Knowledge Keeper," he was personally sent by the God of Knowledge and Wisdom to provide intelligence to aid him in digesting the potion.

As for Klein, who was in the midst of helping… How much more suicidal was he compared to his digestion speed?

"Because I went to dig a grave… a grave that might have been my ancestor's… So the 'Gravedigger' digested very quickly…" After a moment of silence, Jane answered in a slightly ethereal voice.

"In the Berserk Sea?" Ebner asked thoughtfully.

"Eh? Ebner, how did you know?" Jane asked in surprise. Although the words formed by the vibration of the air had always seemed ethereal, Ebner could hear the difference in the tone.

"Admiral of Stars discovered the treasure in a secret sea route in the Berserk Sea. The Future was then attacked by Admiral Hell." Ebner succinctly shared the information he had obtained from Alger.

"So you deduced that I was on the Future… I'm afraid you have already guessed the identity of that important figure, right? As expected of a Hero Detective!" Jane sighed with emotion when she heard that. Although Back when she left Backlund, he had already excelled in his inference ability, she never expected him to be so powerful. He had deduced so many truths from the information he revealed during their few meetings.

"I do have some guesses…" Ebner nodded but didn't say it out loud. Although he was almost certain that the person who came to visit him in the middle of the night was indeed Jane, he still kept his basic guard up. Furthermore, it involved demigods. It was always right to be careful.

Seeing that Ebner's vigilance had slowed down slightly, Jane made the illusory face formed by the black fog reveal a "simple" smile. She said, "I relied on the effects of a mystical item to let my Spirit Body fly so far away, but it can't be delayed for too long, so let's talk about serious matters first."

"I'm listening." Ebner nodded solemnly.

Jane's black fog formed a strange smile on her face as she said, "The first thing is that I want to meet you. Yes, I also want to congratulate Detective Hero on becoming famous."

Can you not mention the name "Hero Detective" anymore? I feel so awkward every time I hear it, okay?

Ebner silently lampooned, but on the surface, he said, "Actually, I'm quite worried about you… Has your ship escaped from Admiral Hell's Black Tulip?"

"This is the second thing I want to say. I want to ask you for a favor. Help me report a piece of news to the Church of Storms." The head formed by the black fog tapped heavily and slowly.

"What news?" Ebner's expression was somewhat odd. He deeply felt that the Church of Storms was about to become a hired thug and tool again. Thinking back to the series of events after his teacher reported the Demoness, he couldn't help but worry for them.

"The Black Tulip will appear in the outer seas of Pritz Harbor at this time tomorrow," Jane replied unhurriedly.

Upon hearing that, Ebner immediately guessed what Jane or Cattleya were thinking. He thought for a moment before suggesting, "In fact, reporting it to the military might be more effective. Ever since the Pritz ironclad entered the water, it hasn't produced any outstanding results."

"Alright… However, it's not convenient for us to deal with the military… And there are quite a number of Numinous Episcopate or Black Tulip scouts onshore. A large-scale report might be immediately discovered and informed Admiral Hell." Jane had clearly received the authority of Admiral of Stars, so she had a plan for Ebner's suggestion.

"I'll get someone to report it. Don't worry." Ebner nodded, a plan forming in his mind.

"Thank you, Ebner." Jane first made a ridiculous smile appear on Black Mist's face, then took out a book with skin as black as ink from the thick cloak of fog and placed it on the small table in the bedroom.

"Here's your advance payment and thank-you gift," Jane said briskly.

Ebner looked down at the cover and saw that although there were no words on it when his eyes touched it, a line of ancient Hermes words flashed clearly in his mind: Book of the Dead.

"Book of Dead Souls?" Ebner didn't read it directly. Instead, he habitually switched to Loen language before reading out its name.

"Yes, this book is one of my discoveries in the mausoleum. It contains a lot of mysticism knowledge, as well as many ways to form necromantic ritualistic magic…" Jane introduced the book in detail. Obviously, she had read it all before.

"This book is the original?" Ebner frowned, then relaxed as if he had figured something out.

"Yes, I never expected Cattleya to agree to give you the Book of Dead Souls as a reward… Is there a problem?" Jane clearly had her doubts as she asked uneasily.

"It's nothing…" Ebner shook his head and thought to himself, It's very likely that Admiral of Stars is deliberately spreading the Death pathway's items… Heh, it shouldn't be just me. The other items from the mausoleum are likely scattered into the hands of the Moses Ascetic Order or some other faction. And the truly valuable items will definitely be left for Queen Mystic.

Yes, I'm not the only one who has reported the matter… That's right. Why would Admiral of Stars place all her hopes in one place? There must be many contingencies.

However, he didn't explain it to Jane. Firstly, it involved the law of Beyonder characteristic convergence, so explaining it would be too troublesome. Secondly, this was only his guess. What if Admiral of Stars was really that generous?

Seeing that Ebner did not want to go into details, Jane did not ask further. Instead, she observed him carefully for a while and found that he had no intention of getting angry. Then, she heaved a sigh of relief. A "happy" expression appeared in the black fog. She said, "Also, I have a gift for you… Don't decline it."

As she spoke, she shook the cloak again and took out a copper whistle.

"This whistle can summon my messenger. If you wish to find me in the future, blow it and get the messenger to bring me a letter."
