Chapter 181 Viscount Jia Kun
"Captain Danson, do you have any clues about the tree people?"
didn't care about the man, Flynn asked Ted Danson.
"No, there are no new clues related to tree people yet."
Ted Danson shook his head.
"Then why are you here?"
Flynn looked at Ted Danson suspiciously.
"I'll introduce to you, this is Viscount Jaquen."
Ted Danson didn't answer immediately, but introduced the man who came with him to Flynn.
"Viscount?"

Fehling looked at the man whose mental state was not very normal.
From the clothes of this person, he has already judged that this person should have some identity, but he did not expect that this person is actually a nobleman, and he is also a viscount with a high status.
"Hello, Captain Sox."
Viscount Jaqen stepped forward and enthusiastically extended his hand to Fei Lin.
"Good."
Fehling reached out and shook it.
For him in the past, let alone a viscount, even a baron was definitely a great person. If he had the opportunity to meet and get to know him, he would definitely be excited.
But for him now, seeing a Viscount would not cause much emotional fluctuations.
"I believe you have already seen that Viscount Jaqen's mental state is quite abnormal. Since a week ago, Viscount Jaqen has been having nightmares."
"After the doctor did not find the cause, Viscount Jia Kun asked me for help. According to my judgment, the reason why Viscount Jia Kun had nightmares was that he was affected by some extraordinary ability and was in a negative state."
"I tried to eliminate the negative state for Viscount Jaqen, but after only one day, he started having nightmares again."
Ted Danson said.
"Did you not completely eliminate the negative state?"
Felin understood why Viscount Jaqen had bloodshot eyes and his mental state was so poor.
Anyone who has nightmares for a week will not be in a good state of mind.
"I can't be sure. My extraordinary ability to clear the negative state was obtained through records, and it is not possible to examine Viscount Jaqun's mental state in detail."
Ted Danson said.
The Book of Secret Art Records that he has practiced can record the extraordinary abilities of arcane art that he has seen, and records many types of extraordinary abilities of arcane art.
However, it is precisely because of this that the recorded occult extraordinary abilities do not belong to the same occult system and cannot complement each other.
For example, a mystic who possesses the extraordinary ability of mental repair, then among the other extraordinary abilities he possesses, it is likely that he has extraordinary abilities that can detect the mental state.
And he does not have such extraordinary ability, unable to probe the mental state.
"Captain Sox, I wonder if you have a way to completely eliminate this negative state for Viscount Ja Kun?"
Ted Danson asked Flynn.
He brought Viscount Jaquen to see Fei Lin because Fei Lin was another middle-ring mystic other than him in the Peg City Security Bureau.
And he must have extraordinary items in his hands, and maybe among the extraordinary items he has mastered, there are extraordinary abilities that can completely eliminate negative states.
"Captain Sox, please help me. Of course, you won't be allowed to help for free. This is my reward."
Before Fei Lin could speak, Viscount Jia Kun took out a cheque that had been written a long time ago and handed it to Fei Lin politely.
Felling glanced at the numbers on the check. The "3" was followed by three "0"s, which was a check for 3,000 pounds.
is a big deal, even with his current weekly salary, it takes a month to earn such a large sum of money.
He did not reach for the check.
If he can do it, he doesn't mind accepting this check, and treats it as extra money.
But unfortunately, the extraordinary abilities possessed by himself and his extraordinary items have not been able to eliminate the negative state.
shook his head, he said.
"Viscount Jaqen, I don't have such extraordinary abilities, so I can't help you."
"Mr. Sookes, you are my only hope. Please give it a try. Whether you succeed or not, the money will be yours."
Viscount Jaqen said with a hint of pleading in his voice.
He has already learned from Ted Danson that if there is anyone who can help him in the current Peg City Security Bureau, there is only this person in front of him.
As for asking for help from other secret organizations, he has no such way to contact the Peg City Security Bureau, that is because he is the Viscount of the Kingdom and has connections with the government.
"Captain Sox, try it. Even if it fails, Viscount Jaqen will never have any complaints. I have dealt with Viscount Jaqen, and I still understand him."
Ted Danson persuaded.
He lives in the city of Peg, and sometimes inevitably has to deal with nobles like Viscount Jaqen.
If Viscount Jaqen can be cured, Viscount Jaqen will be able to owe his favor, which will be beneficial to him.
Of course, he didn't want to pit Fehling either.
As he said, Viscount Jaqen will never hold a grudge against Fei Lin because of his failure. This matter is not harmful to Fei Lin, but will get a handsome reward for it.
"Yes, even if I fail, I will never have any complaints."
Viscount Jaqen said quickly.
"Then I'll give it a try!"
Seeing Ted Danson's persuasion, Flynn thought about it and agreed.
Since the other party fails, there will be no complaints, so he doesn't mind giving it a try.
Of course, even if the other party has complaints, there is nothing he can do.
He is not from Peg City and will leave after this mission is over.
Moreover, with his relationship with Lindy and the importance attached by the Security Bureau, a viscount could not help him.
"Thank you, thank you, and please accept it."
Viscount Jaquen hurriedly handed over the check again.
This time, Fei Lin took the check. Since he was asked to do it himself, it was reasonable to charge some remuneration.
If he doesn't get paid, the other party may still be uneasy, worried that he will not do his best.
"Captain Danson, after listening to your description, I have some thoughts."
Putting the check in his pocket, he looked at Ted Danson and said.
"what idea?"
asked Ted Danson.
"In addition to the possibility that it was not completely eliminated, there is another possibility that it has been completely eliminated, but it is again affected by negative extraordinary abilities."
Flynn said.
"Affected by negative Beyonder abilities again? What do you mean, someone with Beyonder abilities noticed that the negative state of Viscount Jaqen had been cleared, and attacked Viscount Jiakun again?"
Ted Danson asked thoughtfully.
"This is one of the possibilities."
Fehling looked at Viscount Jaqen and asked.
"Viscount Jaqen, have you had a grudge against anyone recently?"
"Enmity with people?"
Viscount Jaqen shook his head after recalling it.
As a nobleman, it is inevitable to have conflicts of interest with others, and naturally there are people who have enmity.
However, recently, he has not had a grudge against anyone.
"Then have you purchased anything special recently, especially the kind that you can touch every day?"
Flynn asked again.

Chapter 182 Golden Cup
"Something more special? Captain Sox, do you mean the cursed thing?"
Ted Danson had already guessed why Flynn asked that.
"A cursed thing? Impossible, I will never be contaminated with that kind of thing."
Viscount Jaqen shook his head quickly.
Although he is not a magician, he is a viscount after all. He has some understanding of the mysterious side and knows what a cursed thing is.
For that kind of thing, he has always kept it at a distance, and it is absolutely impossible to contaminate it.
On the contrary, he was very interested in alchemy items, so he spent a lot of money to buy a few alchemy items for self-defense.
"Captain Sawkes, I don't think it's the cause of the cursed thing. Viscount Jaqen knows about the cursed thing. Knowing the dangers of this kind of thing, he won't contaminate it."
Ted Danson said.
"If you don't contaminate this kind of thing, it's not necessarily that you won't be contaminated with this kind of thing."
"Actually, there are many kinds of cursed objects. Most cursed objects can detect abnormality as long as they are in physical contact, but there are also some cursed objects that cannot be detected even if they are in physical contact."
Flynn said.
It has been less than half a year since he joined the Security Bureau, and he doesn't know much about the mysterious test.
But he knew a lot about cursed things.
Because of cultivating the Eye of Secret Art, he deliberately found a lot of books related to cursed things to read.
's knowledge of cursed things is absolutely top-notch among mystics.
"A cursed thing that cannot be detected abnormally through physical contact, is there such a cursed thing?"
Viscount Jaqen was a little surprised.
"I don't know much about this, but since Captain Sox said so, it should be there. He is definitely an expert in cursed things."
Ted Danson said.
He knew that one of the two secret techniques Fei Lin practiced was the Eye of Appraisal. When he practiced the Eye of Appraisal, he had to deal with cursed objects a lot, and he must have a good understanding of cursed objects.
After a pause, Ted Danson said again.
"However, Captain Sox, someone needs to use the curse to activate it."
"Even if Viscount Jia Kun's collection was mixed with cursed things, Viscount Jia Kun did not activate it, so it shouldn't be affected."
"No, there are some cursed things that don't need to be used by humans, they can be activated as long as the activation conditions are met."
Flynn shook his head.
The stand-in puppet on him is the kind of alchemy item that can be activated without human manipulation as long as the activation conditions are met.
Cursed things are the same, there are also cursed things that can be activated without human manipulation.
"So there is such a curse."
Ted Danson was a little surprised, but he didn't expect that there was a curse that could be activated without human manipulation.
"Captain Sox, do you mean that such a cursed thing appeared in my collection?"
Viscount Jaqen asked quickly.
"This is just one of the possibilities. Of course, I think this possibility is bigger than being plotted by an Extraordinary. After all, you haven't offended anyone recently."
Fehling paused and asked.
"Viscount Jaqen, have you purchased anything special recently?"
"There is really one piece. It is a cultural relic of the Empire of the Night. I spent a lot of money to buy it. Because I like it, I take it out and play with it almost every day."
Viscount Jaqen said with a frightened expression.
If it was as Captain Sox guessed, then he was playing with something that could kill him.
"Viscount Jaqen, you have to go to your villa to make sure that the relic is a cursed thing."
Ted Danson said.
"Also please confirm for me."
Viscount Jaqen said quickly.
"I don't have the ability to judge, and Captain Socks is the expert in this regard."
Ted Danson shook his head.
"If Viscount Jaqen is free now, you might as well take us there now."
Flynn said.
"That's for the best, I'll trouble Captain Sox and Captain Danson..."
Finally saw the hope of solving the nightmare, Viscount Jia Kun naturally did not refuse.
A carriage took Feline, Ted Danson, and Viscount Jaqen out of the Security Bureau and entered a large villa.
Although the decoration is not as good as the Freeman villa of the Ivy family, but it is also quite high-grade, it is the villa of Viscount Jacques.
Entering the villa, Viscount Jaquen immediately brought Feline and Ted Danson to the room where he collected antiques.
There are booths one after another in the room, and on the booths, there are pieces of antiques.
With a laborious eye, I can find these antiques, each of which is very valuable and belongs to the boutique among the antiques.
"It's this thing, please take a look at Captain Sox!"
Viscount Jaquen came to a booth with Feline and Ted Danson.
Above the booth, there is a golden wine glass.
The wine glass is mainly made of gold, carved with exquisite patterns, and inlaid with red, green, and yellow gemstones.
The carving is natural, obviously from the hands of skilled masters, maybe even a mystic with a master craftsman as the pre-professional occupation.
This is indeed an extremely precious relic of the Night Empire period.
"Eye of Appraisal."
Fehling used the Eye of Appraisal to examine artifacts like this one.
Type: Cursed
Name: Golden Cup
Grade: Type I
Extraordinary Ability: Put water into it, and turn the water into a detoxifying agent.
Side effect: Always release nightmare breath to the surroundings, people who are contaminated with nightmare breath will have nightmares.
After the nerf, the side effect: After being contaminated with nightmare breath, the quality of sleep will be extremely slightly affected.
After reading the introduction of this cultural relic, Fei Lin looked at Viscount Jia Kun and said.
"It's this thing, this is a cursed thing that is not easy to detect, it can release the breath of nightmares, and those who are contaminated will have nightmares!"
Hearing Fei Lin's words, Viscount Jaqen couldn't help but back up again and again, and Ted Danson also stepped back a little with fear.
"Captain Sox, please help me dispose of this cursed object, whether it is destroyed or discarded, as long as it can be disposed of."
Viscount Jaquen to Felin Road.
"Although this has some side effects, it is a curse after all, Viscount Jaqen, are you sure you want me to help you deal with it?"
Fehling asked.
Although this cursed golden cup has the side effect of making people nightmares, its extraordinary ability is very good, and it can actually make antidote.
"I'm sure."
Viscount Jaqen said with certainty.
How much he liked the Golden Cup before, how much he hates the Golden Cup now.
"Okay, I'll handle it for you."
Fehling held the golden cup in his hand.
For Viscount Jaqen and even general occultists, the golden cup is a more troublesome thing, but for him, it is nothing.
With the nerf of the Eye of Appraisal, the side effects of the Golden Cup are almost nothing to him.
Moreover, the panel can include extraordinary items in it, and isolate the abilities of extraordinary items, so that the abilities of illegal items cannot be used.
If the golden cup is included in the panel, it should be able to prevent the golden cup that can release the nightmare breath all the time from releasing the nightmare breath.
