Chapter 533 Generosity (Thanks to Zhuri for rewarding the Silver Alliance again)
Lumian looked at the surprise and relief frozen on Bulman's face, took off the "Torture" gloves and "Song of Hate", and ended the "Face of Nether".
He then put on the silver-white "lie" ear clip, took out a white bandage, and transferred and wrapped up the burn wound on his right chest and the bloody left hand.
Red flames rose up around him, burning his dripping blood and splattered flesh.
During this process, Lumian collected the scattered body parts of Bulman and piled them next to the head.
He had been estimating the time. If Bulman's extraordinary characteristics had not yet emerged, he would have to move the pile of corpses to the forest next to the Andatna volcano.
This is because the "torture" gloves will attract the attention of certain hidden beings, who will drive dangerous creatures to attack.
In the past, Lumian would have to leave the scene as soon as he finished using the "torture" gloves, but this time the battle lasted for a short time, and the "torture" gloves were stuffed into the "traveler's bag", so he could wait for a while.
Looking at the purple, pale, dark and other colored light spots emerging from Bulman's head and the pile of corpses, which combined themselves, Lumian found various items on the ground and in the torn clothes around him:
There was a blood-stained, brass-shaped miniature brain, a telescope that could be extended into a deep black, ointments and powders in small metal bottles, a short bone scepter, a strange emblem with bones surrounding the sun, a soft-cover notebook in an iron box, an ordinary-looking gold ring, and various gold and silver coins scattered on the ground...
As for the deposit certificates and cash banknotes, they should have been destroyed in the explosion and fire.
Lumian put them away one by one, feeling that three of them should have extraordinary powers. Just by touching them, he had adverse reactions in different manifestations.
Fortunately, I never thought of having a protracted battle with Bulman from the beginning... It will be quite troublesome when he is free to use these magical items... To deal with this kind of half-crazy enemy with resources, we must make a quick decision and not give him a chance to recover... Some of these things should have been collected by him himself, and some were most likely stolen from Fidel... Lumian finally picked up the dented and cracked iron box.
Inside the soft-cover notebook was a treasure map stained with blood. Lumian took a quick look and concluded that it was a nautical chart leading to an island in a certain sea area. It recorded the patterns of weather changes and marked two safe routes.
Is this the fake treasure map that Mark Benito sold to Boorman? Lumian turned the dark softcover notebook to the first page and saw the scribbled words on it:
"My mental state is sometimes good and sometimes bad, and I always forget a lot of things. I have to write down all the relevant knowledge and not forget it."
Lumian didn't look at it carefully and put away the fake treasure map and soft-cover notebook.
He glanced at the pile of body parts again and found that Boorman was wearing an ordinary-looking gold ring on the ring finger of his left hand.
This is very similar to the gold ring in the pile of spoils just now, one is larger, one is smaller, one is rougher, and one is very delicate.
Lumian immediately understood what was going on.
He took off the gold ring from the ring finger of Boorman's left hand and tied it together with the other gold ring with a half piece of wire he carried with him.
Lumian took a few steps toward the gray-black crater and silently threw the pair of rings into the red depression.
At this time, all of Boorman's extraordinary characteristics had been extracted and combined with certain parts of his body to form two items:
One is the transparent lavender left eye, and the other is the dark right eye with a hint of paleness.
Lumian put away the two extraordinary characteristics, lifted up Bulman's head, and suddenly disappeared from the spot.
Silently, all the remaining parts of Bulman began to burn, and red flames rose in the vast gray-black area around the crater.
Lumian's figure was outlined more than two hundred meters away. He bent down and picked up the golden straw hat that was blown over there by the strong wind.
He pushed his straw hat onto his head and disappeared quickly.
This time, he appeared on the road outside the Andatena Volcano Steam Train Station.
Lumian raised his head and looked towards the gray-black crater, only to see the golden and red sunset, which looked like magma, fading away faster than expected.
The top of the mountain quickly darkened.
…………
In Farin Port, in the "Fool" Church not too far from the Black Pearl District.
Lumian pressed the golden straw hat on his head, walked up to the half-giant bishop wearing a half-high silk hat and a black windbreaker, and said in a deep voice:
"I want to repent."
The half-giant bishop, who was over two and a half meters tall, looked down at Lumian with his light blue eyes for a few seconds, nodded and said:
"follow me."
He led Lumian into the special confessional room, which was windowless and dark.
"I don't want to confess in the dark." Lumian took off his golden straw hat and said calmly.
The half-giant bishop lit the candles here and closed the door.
With a bang, Lumian threw a head covered with pale fur and without eyes to the feet of the half-giant bishop.
"Have you committed murder?" The half-giant bishop took a quick look and asked in a mellow voice.
"No, I just want to help him confess." Lumian pointed to the bloody head oozing with yellow pus, "He is the 'Devil Wizard' Boorman."
"Bulman?" The half-giant bishop then looked at the head carefully and found several obvious features.
He was silent for a few seconds and said:
"You want to ask the church to help you collect the bounty from the Intis government?"
"I told you, I'm here to do his penance, and his bounty is part of that penance." Lumian's voice was no different from before.
The half-giant bishop was a little confused for a moment.
Lumian took out most of the items he had obtained from Bulman from the "Traveler's Bag", leaving only the dark soft-cover notebook and the fake treasure map.
With a crash, all these things that either possessed extraordinary power or were extremely valuable were scattered to the ground.
"They are also part of Bulman's confession." Lumian introduced briefly, "I want to use the bounty and the money from these items to set up a charity fund to compensate those who have been harmed by Bulman or their relatives. If there is any surplus, then, I will help homeless children."
The half-giant bishop, wearing a top hat and a windbreaker, remained silent for a few seconds:
"The bounty for the 'Devil Wizard' is 60 Felgin, and these things are also very valuable. The total amount may be close to 100 million Felgin. This is a huge fortune that cannot be ignored by anyone, enough to make you never have to take risks again.
"Are you sure you want to donate to us and set up a charity fund?"
Lumian did not directly answer the half-giant bishop's question, but simply repeated what he had just said:
"This is Boorman's confession."
"Well, since you believe in our church, we will do as you wish." The half-giant bishop said, "My name is Tays. Remember my name and come to monitor the progress of the charity fund at any time."
Lumian looked at the Holy Emblem of the Fool in the confessional, placed his hand on his chest, bowed slightly and said:
"Praise the fool!"
He then closed his eyes and prayed:
"Great Lord, please punish the sins committed by the world and watch our actions to make amends.
"This is not atonement, this is self-punishment..."
Lumian confessed earnestly for a while, then he straightened up, opened his eyes, turned and walked out the door.
"What is the name of that charity fund?" the half-giant bishop asked quickly.
Lumian exhaled and said:
"Helen, Helen Charity Fund."
"Do we need to tell the authorities who killed Bulman?" the half-giant bishop asked carefully.
“No need, but you don’t have to deliberately help me cover up the clues.” Without looking back, Lumian put on a golden straw hat, walked out of the confessional, and left the Church of Fools.
…………
At night, Lumian once again came to the bar called "Pelican" next to the Sun Plaza.
Batna Conte was sitting at the bar as usual, drinking "Kinsom" liqueur, and next to him was a girl dressed like an adventurer with cute features.
Lumian walked over and sat between Butner and the other drinkers. He smiled and snapped his fingers at the bartender:
"A glass of 'Kinsom'."
Butner glanced at him and said:
"I'm in a good mood."
"Yes." Lumian took the golden sugar wine from the bartender and tapped the bottom of the glass on the table. Then he stood up and raised the glass and said, "Everyone, I encountered two things worth being happy about today."
He said in a tone full of enthusiasm and joy:
"The first is that I completed a commission worth more than 10 Felkins!"
"Impossible..." Butner and the female adventurer beside him said in unison.
This is higher than the bounty of "Black Lord", how can it be completed in one day?
Moreover, Butner knew very well that Louis Berry's employer Fidel had died, so where would he get the new commission from?
Lumian continued with a passionate tone:
"To celebrate this, I'm buying everyone at the bar a glass of 'Kinsom'!"
Nearly ten adventurers and drinkers exclaimed in admiration, and one of them shouted loudly:
"No matter what the truth is, I believe you!"
Others echoed.
Lumian then smiled even more clearly:
"The second happy thing is that I made up a lie and fooled a bunch of fools!"
Suddenly, the expressions of everyone at the bar froze.
Lumian glanced at them and continued:
“But the drinking thing is real!”
The adventurers and drinkers booed and said that they didn't mind being fools if they could get a free drink.
So, Lumian really spent 96 ricks, or Felgin, to treat the twelve people at the bar to a glass of "Gold Som" each.
Looking at Louis Berry like this, Butner muttered silently:
"He's really happy..."
…………
Late at night, in the first-class room No. 5 of the "Flying Bird".
Lumian returned to the barely habitable master bedroom, lit the kerosene lamp, and took out the dark soft-cover notebook and fake treasure map he had obtained from the "devil wizard" Boorman from the "traveler's bag".
