Chapter 121: 3
Chapter 1003 A Moment of Tenderness and Doubt (2-in-1) One year and five months ago, Alger Wilson was pulled into the gray fog because he obtained a mysterious glass bottle while searching for the "Blue Avenger" Above, he became a member of the meeting in front of Mr. Fool.
At that time, he was the "Rageful People" of Sequence 8 of the Sailor Path. Miss "Queen" who became a member of the Tarot Club with him was probably just an assassin, and would not be more than Sequence 8 at most. And Miss "Justice" was even extraordinary. He is neither of them, he is just a nobleman who is not familiar with the world and lacks defensive mentality.
But in less than two years, the noble lady who bought the "audience" formula from Alger has grown to be just one step away from being a demigod, and even prepared extraordinary characteristics and magic potion formulas in advance. A good "dream walker" can gain divinity and become a half-human and half-god as long as he works hard and stands on tiptoe.
As for the "Queen"...
He secretly glanced at Miss "Queen" who was watching the "Magician" and "Judgement" join in the plan to hunt the Mysterious Saint. He seemed to be outside, and Alger only felt like she was looking at her. All living beings, gods without sorrow or joy.
In the ancient era, Sequence 2 angels were already regarded as followers of the gods, but I was still a Sequence 5. Although I had the "Tyrant" card, which was equivalent to solving the problem of the potion formula, the materials and promotion plan were not available. Even the performance was delayed due to the outbreak of the war... Alger became more and more anxious. He always felt that the commission issued by Mr. Fool through the mouth of "The World" must be a "gift" to enhance the overall strength of the Tarot Club. But he was overseas, burdened with the duties of the Church of Storms, and couldn't even drink soup!
He looked around, and after Mr. "Star" revealed that he had found traces of the Aurora Society saints in Backlund's underground gathering, and used it to join the hunting plan and become the official Beyonder internal agent, he coughed lightly at the right time and inserted into the conversation. , said:
"It's a pity that I am on my way to the Abyss of Storms, otherwise I might be able to provide some help."
The Abyss of Storms is the headquarters and temple of the Church of Storms, located on Pasu Island in the Sunia Sea. Although now Fusac's navy frantically raided Roen's coastline and shipping lanes, but never made any move to invade the island.
Otherwise, even if the Storm Lord does not appear, any angel of the church can send an entire fleet to the bottom of the sea in an instant.
Sure enough, Alger's meaningful words immediately attracted the attention of others. Miss Justice even let out a sigh and asked curiously:
"Isn't that the headquarters of the Church of Storms? Why do you want to go there? "
"I have been selected by the Cardinal Council to become one of the new batch of 'Ocean Singers', and I am about to return to the Abyss of Storms for promotion and accept a new mission."
Alger replied slowly, admitting it directly for the first time. He is an official Beyonder of the Church of Storms, not a peripheral member or pirate captain.
"Didn't you already... Oh, I know, you want to 'really' become a Sequence 5 a long time ago."
Audrey was confused at first, and then suddenly answered it herself.
"Yes, only in this way can I gain more autonomy. After leaving the Abyss of Storms this time, I will probably join the attack on the Feysac Navy's sea supply line, and may be permanently stationed on Sunia Island... Alger
replied with a smile, and then looked at Mr. Fool at the top of the long table, as if waiting for his further instructions.
In Klein's eyes, these behaviors were quite comical, like children clamoring to divide the fruit, and he almost couldn't help but laugh out loud in the gray mist.
However, I have indeed neglected Mr. "The Hanged Man" during this period. After all, I have been staying in Backlund almost all the time, so naturally I pay more attention to the Tarot Club members here... He thought, and spoke in the deep and thick voice of the Fool. :
"If you get to Sonia Island, you can look for the elven ruins there. You may gain additional rewards."
His instruction was not without purpose, but based on the previous "Hanged Man" who was accidentally attacked by the "Hanged Man" at the headquarters of the Church of Storms. The conclusion reached was reached through the influence of Coshnam's "Book of Disasters" and informing the "Fool" about the incident.
At that time, the "Queen of Natural Disasters" Coshinam was playing with a wine glass from the ruins of Coshinam in the Rhoside Islands in the illusion. It was one of the relics that Klein commissioned "Vice Admiral Iceberg" to bury on Sunia Island. one.
This obvious direction soon appeared in the mind of "The Hanged Man" Alger. He nodded in realization, bowed to Mr. Fool, and said no more words.
In his mind, this is his greatest hope of becoming a demigod.
...
Crimson light flashed, and Alger Wilson's spirit body returned to his body in the captain's room of the "Blue Avenger". He opened his eyes and quickly concealed the trace of desire and expectation in his eyes, with a cold expression. He pushed open the door, came to the deck, and looked into the distance.
At the end of his sight, the outline of an island appeared in the mist.
That was the location of the Thunder Church where he was about to report his duties, receive the magic potion, and be promoted to "Ocean Singer". It was also the location of the "Abyss of Storm" where he was about to listen to the teachings of Pope Gad II.
————
After an all-night investigation of the case and an expedited interrogation, Hugh Dilcha returned to her residence exhausted, changed out of the height-increasing shoes that could cover up her physical defects and increased her sense of majesty, and put on her home casual clothes. Just came to the living room.
At this moment, Forsi, who was sitting in the easy chair with a dull look on his face, shook his body and opened his eyes.
Those beautiful light blue eyes showed the weariness deep in his heart, which made Xio feel distressed.
"Were you called by Mr. World for urgent training again?"
she asked, placing the breakfast for two on the table.
As if a special word triggered strong emotions, Forsi's expression suddenly changed and distorted, looking like the prisoners who were imprisoned in the Abnormal Affairs Court for interrogation:
"Hugh! Do you know what I have been doing in the past ten days? Are you doing well? Keep going to strange places to record the local customs and enjoy the weird night scenes. In your spare time, you will be dragged into the gray fog to record the demigod-level abilities displayed by Mr. World... It's okay. Just now, my 'Recorder' has been completely digested, otherwise I don't know how long this kind of life will last..."
The performance that was originally thought to take another month or two to be completely completed was compressed into ten days, causing her to almost have a mental breakdown. , hugged the overwhelmed Xio and rubbed him against her for a few times before he regained his composure.
"Why are you in such a hurry? Aodai...Miss Justice, won't it have to wait for a while? Ms. Hermit hasn't come to Backlund yet."
Xio finally broke free from Forsi's arms . , asked in confusion.
"Because I don't want to be held back in this operation. It's related to my teacher's wish. He helped me a lot. I want to give him a surprise... and Mr. World seems to be very concerned about this. I don't want him to Disappointed."
Forsi stopped his nonsense and replied seriously.
Well, I always feel that Forsi is very serious at this time, with a kind of intellectual beauty, rather than his usual lazy look... Xio was stunned for a few seconds, smiled and said:
"Then you can already be promoted? But that How are you going to complete this difficult ceremony?"
As a close friend who has been with Forsi day and night, Xio already knew that the other party had prepared the materials and formulas needed for promotion, and all he needed was to arrange the promotion ceremony.
"I'm going to take a break first and get back into top shape...and then you'll know."
Forsi gave up, and then, regardless of appearance, he got into the easy chair and fell asleep in front of Xio.
...
After waking up from his sleep, Angel subconsciously touched his side and found that Klein was no longer there.
It was strange that she hadn't sensed his departure before... She subconsciously wanted to use the mirror in the villa to look for traces of him, but in the end she resisted the urge to avoid seeing him in the bathroom and other places.
Both the witch and the soothsayer retained the greatest respect for each other's privacy.
Getting up from the bed, Angel picked up the underwear scattered beside the bed, went to the bathroom next to the bedroom to wash up briefly, put on another nightgown, and then returned to the bedroom. Unsurprisingly, he found Klein He was already sitting on the edge of the bed, yawning tiredly.
Huh, who asked you to provoke me last night... Seeing this, Angel hummed proudly, sat down next to Klein, pushed him to the side, and occupied the central position.
"Where's my breakfast, weak Mr. Soothsayer?"
She winked and asked pointedly.
My spirituality is almost exhausted... Klein muttered silently, grabbed a handful from the pores of history, took out the historical projection of the sumptuous breakfast in the box, and placed it on the coffee table next to the bed.
Because the number of historical projections that can be maintained at the same time is limited, when summoning multiple objects, he will use a "set" to grab them.
"Come on, enjoy this 'Emperor's Breakfast'."
Speaking of a joke that only time travelers would understand, Klein took the lead in picking up a sandwich filled with lettuce, fried eggs and bacon and put it into his mouth, sighing with satisfaction.
Within fifteen minutes, these fake foods will also give him a completely real experience, which is enough for him to recover some of his physical strength and spirituality.
Seeing Klein who was deliberately exaggerating his body reaction as if to protest against himself, Angel also chuckled, took a sip of the coffee with extra sugar and milk, and did not touch the food that came from the pores of history.
After being promoted to an angel and becoming a truly complete mythical creature, she no longer needs to eat and sleep physically.
I'm afraid that the difference between me and ordinary humans is even greater than the difference between humans and some alien creatures. I'm just wearing a layer of human skin and pretending that I'm still a human... Looking at Klein enjoying breakfast next to me, I feel... Angel suddenly thought with a trace of tranquility.
This negative emotion immediately broke the fragile balance between the mental erosion from the extraordinary characteristics and the humanity from the anchor in her body, causing her calm purple eyes to become unnoticeably violent.
But Angel was already very familiar with this, and he instantly readjusted her mental and physical state. The power from Klein, the man in the mirror, different friends and believers were like anchors, preventing her from being blown away from the port in the storm. , lose yourself.
This is why she will maintain a normal diet and sleep cycle even if she doesn't need it. These "human" behaviors help her maintain her previous state and resist the erosion of her "divine nature."
After Klein finished breakfast and the tableware disappeared as the time limit expired, Angel asked,
"Did you just go to help Miss Magician complete her performance?"
She believed that Klein would not leave her running around casually. , not to mention leaving without saying goodbye, and this is the only other reason I can think of.
"Yes," Klein took out a napkin and wiped his mouth before replying, "This is the last time. She has finished playing the role of 'Recorder'. I will ask Ms. Reinette to take her to the spiritual center later." Deep in the world, complete the promotion ceremony."
"Of course, she can only pay the reward herself. The gold coins I have are only enough to send the credit. "
It won't cost tens of thousands of gold coins. Does Forsi have the money to pay?" ... Angel mourned for a second of silence for the apprentice, and then remembered that he was also short of money, and he couldn't laugh anymore.
Even the bounty received from the "Immortal King" Agaritu and his men was quickly spent like water due to the consumption of the "City of Dreams" Pattis and the factories in the East District. Klein donated it. They spent most of the cash to help war victims and the poor who were struggling due to rising prices. Now the two of them could not raise ten thousand pounds together, and there were very few gold coins.
During this period of time, Angel has been worried about the secret actions of the "Witch Cult", and he is in a state of dormancy, rarely leaving Backlund or the "City of Dreams" to go elsewhere; after Klein solved the problem of George III, he also wanted to Avoiding secret enemies such as Amon and Zarathul, he spends most of his time constantly changing his place of residence, or hiding directly in the pores of history, using secret puppets to act, and working hard for his final performance as an "ancient scholar".
Only when both parties think it is safe, they will get together like last night and enjoy a moment of tenderness. This situation will probably last at least until the end of the war, when the goddess recovers and can deter Zarath and other enemies, or when Klein can be promoted to an angel and have the strength to truly face other enemies... Thinking of this, Angel hugged him He touched Klein, put his chest against the other's back, felt the body temperature of the two of them, and asked softly:
"Is the role of 'ancient scholar' going well? Do you need my help?"
Klein also turned sideways. He hugged her, showed a smile and said:
"I'm a bit stuck. Because I know most of the hidden history in advance, and the special nature of my 'travelling', I completed the ninth sequence just after taking the Sequence 3 potion. It takes a lot of time to digest, but the remaining parts are the most difficult part.
"My next performance should need to analyze the ancient history of the First and Second Ages, but not only are these contents not recorded in books, but even those ancient legends. Most of them are wrong and cannot be used to fill in the gaps in history... Could it be that the only way to find out the truth of that era is to personally go to the 'Land Abandoned by Gods' forgotten by history?
"But there is Amon's true form there, and there is terrifying darkness and unknown monsters. " "
Angel reminded.
"But there is also hope for me to be promoted... The dark demon wolf carrying a 'Miracle Master' is wandering in the land abandoned by the gods. This is probably one of the reasons why Amon is confident and not afraid of me not going. ...Of course, I will use this as my last choice, trying to get the characteristics of the 'Planeswalker' first, or looking for other 'Miracle Masters' for promotion. "
Klein replied with a sigh, and then changed the subject:
"What about you? Playing 'disaster' doesn't sound easy. "
Although the role of the potion is not necessarily related to the name, most of them have traces to follow. At least this is the path of the witch where Angel is located. Pain, despair and immortality are all reflected accordingly, and the same is true for "disaster". "
Strange What's more, since I took the 'disaster' potion, I have slowly and continuously received some kind of feedback, which has caused the potion in my body to continue to be digested, and now it has exceeded one-fifth..." Angel Frowning, he replied, "The only reason I can think of is that the changes in the world situation after the death of George III are all part of the fall of the 'Black Emperor', and they are all included in the 'disaster' caused by me, but these Not many people know about it, so there shouldn't be such a strong feedback..."
"Although no one knows, the gods know. "
Klein said. He seemed to have thought of something, and his expression changed slightly.
"The goddess acquiesced to our actions and even allowed Ms. Arianna to participate in the attack on the mausoleum. The Storm Lord finally nailed the coffin of the 'Black Emperor' Nail, they two must know that you are the source of the 'disaster'. Amon and his brother also know the whole process, as well as the angels of the royal family and the angels of the church... They use quality to compensate for your quantity. Acting provides powerful feedback. "
Angel nodded when he heard
this and said, "That's what I guessed too... In addition, Mr. Fool also witnessed our actions."
I almost forgot about myself... Klein's heart tightened, but his expression There was no change, just a nod in agreement.
...
After watching Klein leave with "teleportation", Angel's smile gradually disappeared from her face. She returned to the window, looked at the grapevines outside the villa and the Tasok River in the distance, and fell into deep thought.
Through her recent careful observation, she has been able to find that Klein's attitude towards Mr. Fool is not as respectful as the Beloved's towards the gods they believe in, and it is not even as respectful as other members of the Tarot Society towards him.
For example, just now, he even forgot that Mr. Fool had been paying attention to the truth behind the great smog incident and the actions against the "Black Emperor" George III.
And these were stated by "World" Klein himself at the Tarot Conference.
I always feel that this change happened after he was promoted to "ancient scholar". Is it because of his promotion in the sequence that he has a certain degree of disrespect for higher-ranking beings? Or maybe the relationship between Klein and Mr. Fool is closer than I thought?
Thoughts kept pouring into Angel's mind, and he recalled a guess he had made: Mr. Fool was also one of the time travellers, and was even a "companion" suspended in the cocoon of light with Klein.
Only this can explain why he has changed his attitude towards the Fool. After all, they both come from the earth in another period, so they are naturally close to each other. Even if Mr. Fool becomes a god, he will not mind such a trivial matter...
She I was almost sure of my guess, but I still couldn't grasp the decisive clue. I had to shake my head and bury these doubts in my heart to avoid angering the mysterious and powerful existence.
Even if he became an angel, he would not have any chance of winning against a god.
Besides, Mr. Fool had helped her too much, and she was not willing to speculate on him with malicious intent.
It's another god...
Thinking of this, Angel took out the harmonica that summoned the messenger from the mirror space and blew it gently. The silent fluctuations disappeared instantly. After a moment, a black figure fell from the ceiling and stretched out in front of Angel. Climbing up on all fours, it was the black cat messenger she had made a contract with, Wensa.
"I haven't received a message from you for so long, I thought you had forgotten me."
The black cat yawned on the table, staring at Angel with his blue eyes, and kept talking.
"Because I'm worried that it's you who is summoned, but what comes is a fully armed witch angel, or even some divine vessel of the 'Original Witch'."
Angel replied coldly.
What she is most worried about now is the original witch at the top of her path. This god who founded the Witch Sect and almost monopolizes the entire path must have a deep hatred for Angel, who has obstructed the sect many times.
Angel's previous promotions were all under the blessing of the "Secret Holy Emblem" and the hidden power of the goddess, but when she was promoted to Sequence 2, this blessing had expired, and her existence was exposed to the eyes of the original witch and the witch sect.
It was a huge sect with many angels and "0" level sealed objects, almost no weaker than the Orthodox Church.
Hearing her complaint, a strange smile appeared on the face of Wensa's cat. It paced back and forth on the table and said in a gentle tone:
"Don't worry, unless the 'Original Witch' risks letting other gods come too. risk, otherwise the gods will not descend at will. At most, some special props can provide part of the power, and you should be able to solve the other 'disaster' witches by yourself... In addition, the person I follow is happy to see you and the 'witch' In the conflict between sects, He will even provide some help when necessary."
That... Angel thought thoughtfully and asked after a moment:
"So, you and Catalina, and even some people hidden in the 'Witch Sect'. The alien within actually believes in Chick in the mirror world, the man in the mirror of the 'original witch'?"
Regarding this, Angel's man in the mirror once gave a hint, and at this time she heard Wensa say so bluntly. His own tendencies further confirmed this guess.
What she didn't expect was that Wensa turned around twice on the table hesitantly before replying hesitantly:
"That's not entirely true. The relationship between them is different from that of ordinary people in the mirror... But generally you are right, we do believe in another 'original witch'. "
I always feel that there is something in her words, hiding something... Angel frowned slightly, and was about to ask, when he heard Wensa add:
"You can ask Crimson, who is still wandering underground in Trier. She has a clearer understanding of the status of the two witches."
"Because she is the daughter of the original witch? But she has died in the 'Yonko Battle'."
Angel took the opportunity to ask.
"Who says the dead can't speak?" Wensa showed that weird smile again, "Her body turned into a night pillar, and her remnant soul lingers beside the terrifying river underground. Can you get the key from her mouth? The information is up to you."
After saying that, Wensa shook his tail and turned around, just as he was about to enter the spirit world, Angel's eyes were quick and he grabbed its soft fur waist, which provoked the black cat. "Meow" roared angrily.
At the same time, the glass windows in the bedroom simultaneously emitted a deep light, and Angel's hand that came into contact with the other person's body also felt a sensation that turned from numbness to stiffness, as if his fingers were about to turn into immovable stones.
Sure enough, it should have been an "ageless" witch when she was alive. I just don't know if a person turned into a black cat for some reason, or if she was a cat naturally like Audrey's Susie... The thoughts in Angel's mind Continuously, he put more force on his hands, and at the same time used his control of the mirror world to block the surrounding passages, easily suppressing the "petrification" directed at him, which in turn made the other party's body stiff, and even the black hair was stained with traces of it. gray.
"Okay, okay, I surrender...I can't beat you."
Wensa meowed a few times and stopped struggling. His limbs went limp and drooped underneath his body. He also raised his body halfway, revealing his soft body to Angel. belly.
Huh, who told you to run away all of a sudden? When I was in Sequence 5, you could run away if you wanted to, and when I was in Sequence 2, you still could run away if you wanted to. Then wasn't my promotion in vain? Angel muttered, stopped and directly passed the body. The "petrification" ability passed by contact puts Wensa on the table.
"I'll ask again..."
Before she could finish her words, the black cat in front of her turned into dots of starlight with a crisp sound, like a broken mirror.
It actually escaped... Angel did not enter the mirror world to track the black cat. He just sat at the table, thinking about what he had just communicated with Wensa. After a while, he spread out the letter and wrote a letter. A simple ritual and summoning spell summoned the headless messenger Reinette Tinichole.
The latter was still wearing the complicated palace black dress that had remained unchanged for thousands of years, holding two heads in each hand, and emerged from the spirit world leisurely, with eight blood-red eyes staring at Angel.
"Send this letter to 'Queen of Mysteries' Bernadette Gustave, the woman who was with my contractor Anne before."
Angel said, handing the letter and a gold coin to the other party.
"I used to..." "Mark..." "Killed her..."
Reinette's three heads answered in turn, and the one on the edge swallowed the letter and gold coins.
Seeing that the messenger was about to leave, Angel did not dare to grab him, but asked in a friendly manner:
"Has the promotion ceremony of the 'apprentice' been completed?"
Hearing her question, Reinette turned around in the air. As she turned around, her skirt swayed, and her heads stared at Angel again.
"She..." "Owes..." "Eight hundred..." "Gold coins..."
It means it's completed... But how come a commission only costs 800 gold coins, and Klein and I are constantly being charged more than 10,000... ...Angel thought quite unbalancedly in his heart, and did not come back to his senses until the messenger lady left.
Now that the "Magician" Miss Fors has become a "Traveler", as long as Audrey is promoted to a "Manipulator", the plan to hunt down the "Secret Saint" can begin...
Thinking of this, Angel's lips once again A smile appeared.
(PS: Two-in-one, no more tonight...)
(End of this chapter)Chapter 1005: Go to Intis again. After learning that the "Duke of Entropy" inside the "City of Dreams" Patis had been contaminated by the power of the outer gods, and then transferred to the "King of the Five Seas" Nast, Angel and Anne informed the "Queen of Mysteries" Bernadette, and she used her power hidden in Intis to investigate the pirate king who had been missing for a long time.
After all, before the last separation, Nast had expressed his intention to bring the remains of his father, Savini Solomon, who died in the "City of Dreams", back to his hometown in Intis and bury him in a village in Ormere. middle.
No matter how complicated the ceremony was, more than a month was enough for Nast to send his father off, but since then, the "Black Emperor" and its captain have never appeared again.
Therefore, Angel suspected that the pollution of the "Fallen Mother Goddess" hidden in Nast had changed in some way, from hiding in secret to breaking out, which led to Nast's disappearance.
Now, Bernadette's letter mentioned that there are some clues to the whereabouts of this "King of the Five Seas". He did return to his hometown of Intis, a small village near Ormir, but Then he disappeared.
This was not an investigation conducted by Bernadette herself, but a secret investigation conducted by her subordinates, so it was not very detailed, and the Church of Steam and the Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun in Intis were not notified.
In the letter, the "Queen of Mystery" invited Angel to conduct a joint investigation and also asked for her opinion. She would make the final decision on whether to notify the official Beyonders.
Why do you want to ask for my opinion? She can make her own decision on this matter... Angel frowned subconsciously, and it took a moment to realize that the identity and relationship between the two had unknowingly changed.
The most important reason is that Angel has been promoted to the "disaster" witch and became an angel.
When I first saw her in Backlund, I was just a "witch", but she was already Sequence 3 and a big shot in the extraordinary world... Now, I have surpassed her and become a real angel... Angel has some He recalled with sadness the scene when he saw Roselle's eldest daughter wearing strange clothes at the exhibition of Emperor Roselle.
Wait, at that time I was still holding a "master key" that could open most locks and even allow people to walk through walls. At that time, Bernadette reminded me that the key contained a dangerous curse, and then Various circumstances indicate that the pollution contained in the "Master Key" is related to the exiled Mr. "Gate" Bethel Abraham, and also to the "Fallen Mother Goddess"... Angel's thoughts turned around, and he thought of what happened in the heavy smog. The cursed key that was destroyed because Klein threw it into the ritual to summon the True Creator.
Going around in circles, I didn't expect that a full year later, I would have to face the contamination of the "Fallen Mother Goddess" again... Angel found some paper and pen with some emotion, and wrote a reply, asking Bernadette not to leave this item for the time being. The official Beyonders of Intis were notified of the matter, but they would conduct some investigations first, and agreed to meet tomorrow, that is, at noon on Sunday, in Trier, the capital of Intis, before deciding on the next step.
There are two reasons why she hid it from the official extraordinary people:
one is that the identities of the two are sensitive. Angel is a Loen, a believer in the night, and a "disaster" witch whose destructive power surpasses almost all avenues. Once the matter spreads to Steam and Eternal Flame, With the Yang Church, she would no longer have the chance to enter Intis; Bernadette's situation is similar. She is the daughter of Emperor Russell, inherited the rich legacy of this legendary figure, and has the friendship of the angel-class ghost ship. The Sauron family and the two major churches who had participated in the assassination of Emperor Russell were also unlikely to let her return to Intis.
Secondly, whether Nast has been contaminated is just speculation by Angel and others. There is currently no definite evidence. Once the official Beyonder is notified, it will be equivalent to condemning the "King of the Five Seas" who is in the hinterland of Intis. "death penalty.
Therefore, she decided to wait until the cause of the matter was investigated clearly before deciding whether to let official extraordinary people come forward to handle everything.
If it is more convenient for the incident to happen in Loen, I can directly notify the Goddess Church, and then I will take charge of the investigation... Even before the war, I can take advantage of the opportunities for communication between the major churches, such as dealing with the "Man in the Mirror" "The same joint operations were carried out. Unfortunately, after the war broke out, the Church of Night, Storm, and Knowledge were in opposition to the other Four Gods Church...
Angel sighed with emotion, and handed the letter to Bernadette's messenger and had it sent back to His contractor, he wrote another letter to Klein, telling him that he was going on a "business trip" to Intis, and told him not to leave Backlund in the near future to avoid running into Ah again. Mongolia or Zaratul, but he was unable to arrive in time to support.
In addition, she also went to St. Samuel's Church, prayed to the goddess, reported the matter, and fulfilled her duty as a favored one.
What worried her was that the goddess had no response.
Is this considered acquiescence, or is He really in poor condition because of the "uniqueness" of the God of Death?
Thinking of this, Angel became more worried about this war that would spread all over the world, and the possible divine war that would follow.
————
On December 11, Angel followed the passage in the Mirror World, from Backlund to Disi Bay, Feneport and Segar, and arrived near Trier in Intis.
This is mainly to avoid the front line of Intis and Feysac's attack on Roen, so as not to be discovered by other angels dispatched by these two countries.
After arriving outside the city of Trier, Angel did not directly use the mirror world to enter the city that has the patron angel and is also the headquarters of the Church of Steam and the Eternal Sun. He appeared in the train that entered the city wall of Trier, which is different from other capitals. He followed these ordinary people into Trier and got off at the train station in the cathedral district.
Today, she modified her face with a "hypocrisy" ring, turning herself into a young woman with long black hair and deep eyes who closely resembled the "Golden Queen". She wore a light green dress in the style of Fenebaud, like Ordinary tourists traveling across borders. Mixed in the crowd, Angel quickly arrived at the place agreed upon with Bernadette, a restaurant not far from the Cathedral of the Church of Steam. In the private room on the top floor, he saw the man who he had just destroyed the ceremony of George III becoming a god with him not long ago. Bernadette who cooperated in the operation.
The latter also disguised his appearance, turning his naturally long chestnut hair into light golden curls. His eyes were as blue as the ocean and were so light that they almost lost their color. The curvature of his chin became wider, and the corners of his eyes were softer. The common women's shirt with a bow tie and tight-fitting trousers reminded Angel of a certain pirate general on the path of a witch.
Waiting with her in the private room was a middle-aged man with blond hair and golden eyes. His facial features were majestic yet delicate. Combined with his extended-hem shirt and wide-leg pants, he had a somewhat neutral aesthetic.
His name is Julian, and he claims to be the person in charge of "Element Dawn" in Trier.
Element Dawn... Angel quickly recalled the relevant information he saw inside the church when he was a Nighthawk, and knew that this was a secret organization established by Bernadette Gustave herself to study occult knowledge and supernatural fields. Alchemy is the main theme, and it has been fighting against another secret organization with a similar form, the "Moss Trappist Order".
They are mainly composed of Extraordinaries from the "Secret Peeper" path, and also absorb some mid- and low-sequence Extraordinaries from other paths. Most of their peripheral members are loosely organized occult enthusiasts, but there is also a force loyal to the "Queen of Mystery" , mainly active in Intis, Feneport and Wuhai.
It seems that this Julian is the one who helped Bernadette find the "King of the Five Seas" Nast... Angel thought, looked at Bernadette, and asked straight to the point:
"Where is Nast Solomon now? Where?"
Bernadette did not speak, but glanced at Julian, who was standing respectfully. The latter nodded and said:
"The target has not directly exposed his whereabouts, and he carries some kind of powerful pollution, so he can directly conduct divination or The risk of prophecy is very high. We used simultaneous rituals in Daliege, Beman and Tillis to indirectly determine his direction, and then found the location of the target, Belon near Ormere, a place famous for growing grapes. A village where winemaking is the main industry. "
Isn't this the method Amon used to find my traces? Couldn't he have copied "Elemental Dawn"? No, considering his actual age, it's hard to say who copied whom... Angel muttered in his heart and asked:
"Can you confirm his current status? For example, whether he is still alive and whether he has left the village. Go to other places?"
These problems that could have been solved with just one divination have become very difficult because Nast is likely to be contaminated by the "Fallen Mother Goddess".
