11) Poseidon
Although he got the news that Lieutenant General Disease had documents related to Death, Klein was not in a hurry to attack her immediately. He planned to contact Daniz's captain, Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina, to inquire about the news. But before contacting the other party, he met a striking group of three men and one woman in the hotel, and that night, he encountered a snake in the hotel.
"It's a little weird. Do they have high-level magical items related to the ocean?" Will glanced briefly and saw something special.
"I won't spoil it for now." Black Cat raised his hat: "Guess."
After leaving the hotel, Gehrman contacted Edwina and asked a series of questions in his dream, such as the location of common extraordinary creatures and what Methods to remove mental pollution from extraordinary characteristics, the key to death, the rose school of thought, in short, I asked everything I could, and of course I didn't miss the group of archaeologists. And Edwina told him that these people were suspected of being archaeologists and might belong to the Elemental Dawn or the Moss Ascetic Order.
"You are really thorough in plundering wool." Will glanced at the black cat with disdain: "But this female pirate general has such a good temper that she answers all questions."
"She is a 'secret teacher', so She should be acting now." Black Cat said without any guilt, "And I exchanged other knowledge with her later."
"Edwards...is this child his descendant?" Russell thought of his old subordinates, This guess was confirmed by Bernadette: "She is indeed a descendant of Uncle Edwards, but I am not familiar with her." After all, there are many generations between them.
"It's okay for her to be like this now." Russell sighed as he thought of Edwards who had mutated on the mysterious island.
Gehrman discussed with Edwina and simply agreed on two things. One was to cooperate in hunting the Blood Admiral, and the other was that Danitz had to stay with him as a liaison officer.
"I don't think there is any suspense anymore. Daniz must have been coerced by you into believing in the Fool." Russell touched his beautiful mustache: "I have been waiting for you."
"What's wrong with following me? The bounty is rising rapidly, long-term financial management." The black cat licked his paws: "You asked him if he was unwilling?"
It was obvious that he was very reluctant... Everyone glanced at Daniz, who was slumped on the sofa and was hopeless. , no one dared to say it.
Reluctantly, Daniz stayed. Then he led Gehrman to find Bayam's resistance army, hoping to trade some extraordinary materials and items. There, Gehrman picked up a bone sword, and immediately felt a pollution that penetrated deep into his soul! He didn't hesitate and left.
"Is this... something from Poseidon?" Alger frowned and felt the evil aura. Having once held Poseidon's scepter, he felt that this aura was somewhat familiar, but it was also different from the one he had turned into a magic potion. Wands are not exactly the same. Is this why Mr. Fool decided to deal with Poseidon? It's not a game and plan between gods, but the other party takes the initiative to attack and counterattacks?
Gehrman used the gray fog to remove Poseidon's pollution. On the gray fog, he saw the source of the pollution, which was a crazy sea snake that seemed to be on the verge of collapse.
"Kavituwa!" Alger, Derrick, Daniz and others were very familiar with this sea snake. This blue sea snake was on the flag of the resistance army. It actually tried to take over Mr. Fool's body?
"This snake must be sequence three at most. It's really good luck to be able to become an evil spirit." Will held his chin. The snake of destiny said it was good luck. That was really good.
"And it doesn't seem to be very intelligent." Azik also observed this mutated sea snake: "The bone sword that Klein touched seems to be part of its body."
"I suspect that it directly swallowed the extraordinary properties alive. It is an ordinary sea creature, so it has a serious tendency to go crazy, and at that time, Laticia and the others took something very important to Kavitua, so its condition was even worse." The black cat looked at Alger. : "You know what that is."
Alger's heart moved: "Is it... the Book of Natural Disasters?"
"That's right." Black Cat nodded.
"So, it was you who killed Kavitua?" Derrick asked with excitement. Although Mr. Fool only had Sequence Six at that time, relying on Source Castle, relying on the assistance of the Black Emperor Card and Mr. Azik, he might not be unable to kill Kavituwa.
"No." The black cat looked at the ceiling: "I reported this matter to the Church of Storms."
As the video continued, Danitz looked at the notice in his hand, and cautiously asked Gehrman to confirm whether it was really meant to be posted. The entrance to Wave Church.
"...Is this how you reported it?" Leonard complained helplessly: "I thought it was through the Hanged Man..."
At least find an informant, why would you directly post a small advertisement!
Audrey and others were also shocked by this simple and crude operation. After receiving this kind of news, would the Church of Storms take action?
Facts have proved that the Church of Storms has indeed taken action. Byam was under martial law, and through Eilan's invitation, he and Daniz participated in the investigation of Bayam and successfully found Laticia. She and his companions had been transformed by the "Book of Natural Disasters". He was solved by the Church of Storms and the book was taken away by the Church.
"It's really useful." Xio's mood was complicated. When she was a bounty hunter, she often reported things to the church, but this was the first time she had seen something so simple, crude and effective.
Having a premonition that the punishers would soon come to beat Kavituwa, Hermann decided to find another way to find the hidden sea snake. Then, he used materials from the Night Realm to arrange a ceremony to offer sacrifices to Kavitua.
"It can still be like this..." Russell once again marveled at the fellow's operation: "And is it really okay to use the goddess's materials to sacrifice to this sea snake?"
"He sacrificed to me with expired essential oil. "Amanysis's voice was soft, but her words were ruthless.
"...You have no conscience!" Russell said with a heartbroken look: "I am also an evil god, won't your conscience feel hurt if you do this?"
Black Cat lowered his head, sincerely admitted his mistake, and would dare to do it next time.
The ceremony arrangements were completed, and Kavituwa successfully accepted the sacrifice - a cigarette box. Soon, Gehrman confirmed through the changes in the weather in Bayam that the battle between Sea King and Kavituwa had ended. Then he brought the Azik Bronze Whistle and the Black Emperor Card in his spiritual body, and found the card through divination of the location of the cigarette box. Vitoy's hideout.
As he watched the scepter, which was a combination of Kavituva's extraordinary characteristics and fangs, gradually take shape, Alger's mind was filled with turmoil. "It turns out that Mr. Fool obtained the authority of Poseidon in this way... No wonder the Church of Storms went crazy with anger after that and tried to find him at all costs." He himself was also assigned the task of finding this "thief". At that time, the bishop's furious speech was still It's vivid in my ears.
After receiving Poseidon's scepter, Hermann quickly responded to the desperate Poseidon believers, re-established the "Ten Commandments", canceled living sacrifices, and guided believers to do good deeds and help children.
Derrick listened to the "admonitions" given by the gods one after another, and gradually understood Mr. Fool's intention. "Mr. Fool didn't want people to fall into despair, so he kept the name of Poseidon."
"Reshaping the creed and guiding believers is what the righteous god does." Pales nodded: "I have always played the role of a benevolent god, and in the end He finally became a benevolent god." He suddenly felt that although he only cooperated with him to fight against Amon, he still chose the wrong person.
Azik kept smiling and said nothing. It was no surprise to Will that they all had intuitive experience of Klein's character.
After solving the Kavitua matter, Hermann contacted Edwina again and decided to use wireless telegram monitoring to find traces of Admiral Blood. As a result, before Admiral Blood's signal could be detected, "Magic Mirror" Arrods sniffed the gray mist and touched it.
"Is this a mirror or a dog?" Russell couldn't help but glance at the mirror that Black Cat had put aside for "broadcasting." As soon as the question came out, a few lines of words appeared on the mirror: "Ah Rhodes is a mirror, a servant of the great and noble master. He is extremely sensitive to the master's breath. He will find the master no matter where he is."
These lines of silver words disappeared immediately, and bloody handwriting appeared again: "According to the law. Principle of reciprocity, now it's my turn to ask. The best lover in your life is a witch, right?" "
I Dai looked over with burning eyes, and Cattleya also looked at him with complicated eyes.
"Bernadette..." Russell was instantly discouraged.
"..." Forsi shrank his shoulders and recalled the scene of his death again. It is best not to speak or ask any questions while this mirror is in front of you!
Leonard was also worried. When he used Arrodes that time, if the old man hadn't tampered with the question, his biggest secret would have been exposed on the spot.
"This mirror is not of high rank, but it really knows too much." Pales also didn't want to face Arrods. Such a vicious sealed object is difficult to train even if it has living characteristics.
Danitz, who was eavesdropping, was also mercilessly ravaged by the magic mirror.
"Are you secretly in love with your captain?"
"The female image you like is beautiful, powerful, mysterious, intellectual, and can crush you under her feet, right?"
"...Your captain won't know." Audrey glanced at Daniz sympathetically and gave him some comfort to prevent him from losing control due to shame.
"I wonder what questions he will ask when facing Mr. Fool..." Emlyn was a little frightened, but he could not deny that he had a glimmer of expectation in his heart. He wanted to see the scene of committing suicide in the mirror in front of Mr. Fool. However, the question he waited for was "What are you going to eat for breakfast today?"
"Treat them differently!" Russell was stunned: "This is so unfair!"
"So it is my servant." The black cat glanced at the mirror, and countless golden fireworks immediately flashed on the mirror, filling the entire mirror.
"Do your job well. Have you finished contacting the demigod of 'Traveler'?" The black cat was reserved for a moment and decided not to say anything else to make it excited.
"The great noble master, Renette Tinichole, has completed the delivery of the letter, but no one has summoned Arrods yet." The magic mirror followed with a sad expression: "However, several of them You already have the intention to try and are making corresponding preparations. When someone completes the summons, I will broadcast the appropriate content according to your instructions."
"Don't ask too strange questions." Black Cat warned, in case something happens. Because the problem with the mirror defined him as an evil god who refused to watch the movie, or some bad misunderstanding occurred, he and the goddess would have to find ways to explain and clarify it later... He hoped to use his sober time to help fellow villagers as soon as possible Understand the truth about time travel, and then guide them to fight the doomsday together.
"Your loyal and humble servant Arrodes obeys your command." The magic mirror answered obediently.
After this episode ended, Black Cat turned his face and realized that the image of 0-32 had gone to where he accepted Elaine's tracing commission and was going to find Lieutenant General Illness.
"Elaine?" Cattleya recalled the incident immediately: "Mr. Fool later asked about her at the Tarot meeting. She was Tracy's prisoner. Well, she later escaped. This commission should be from Tracy. "Published."
After Black Cat got the news, he activated the Poseidon Scepter, found Elaine with the help of believers, and used the ability of the "Faceless Man" to disguise himself as the opponent, intending to be captured and wait for an opportunity to assassinate Tracy.
"...It's really unambiguous to say that you can change into a woman, so you can change into a woman." Russell sighed in admiration: "Fellow, to be honest, haven't you practiced before time travel?"
"No." Black Cat said calmly. "At that time, I still had some mental disorders, but after experiencing the performance of Utopia, they disappeared." In a city, there are five thousand marionettes, men, women, old and young, all with their own stories. After going through this ritual, when I look back at women's clothing, I no longer feel anything like it.
"Everything is just acting, and I will always be myself."
In the image at this time, he had changed out of his men's clothes and put on a long gold and red tunic dress.
"It's really a skirt..." Forsi covered her mouth and stared at the image without blinking. Xio, Alger and Derrick wanted to look away in embarrassment, but they couldn't really stop looking. Emlyn was stunned, still immersed in the shock of "Mr. Fool actually dressed as a woman". Leonard laughed unceremoniously until his shoulders shook. Pales patted him on the back helplessly, telling him to be more respectful in front of the true God. He turned his face, only to see Will was doing the same, giggling and almost hitting the table. He slipped off the sofa, but luckily Azik was on the side and supported him with a smile.
"Mr. Fool has a good eye for choosing skirts..." Audrey, who has extensive experience in clothing, habitually looked at this outfit: "The waist-cinching style can outline the figure, and the golden red color also matches Elaine's red hair.
"It's very beautiful... No, it should be Elaine who is very beautiful. Mr. Fool is just pretending to be a faceless man..." Cattleya pushed up her glasses: "Is this the faceless man... completely withdrawn? " , but he is very involved in playing a completely different person?"
"Being both integrated and detached, this is the Faceless Man." Black Cat lay down and said, "This acting also helped me understand the Faceless Man. The law of acting. It's shameful, but it works."
Soon, Tracy's maid knocked on the door. Klein faced Tracy directly for the first time. The two sides struggled for a while. Tracy quickly reacted and called out an enemy attack. Klein was unable to win quickly and had no choice but to escape.
"No, after all the hard work, we still failed." Leonard, who was used to killing everyone in the "world", was a little surprised.
"It is not easy to assassinate a pirate general on the other side's ship, not to mention the sequence difference." Cattleya said, in her opinion, Mr. Fool's performance was already very good.
(12) Voyage
This assassination ended in failure, but Klein did not give up. Soon, Mr. Azik, who had received Klein's letter, rushed over. After listening to him briefly explain the situation, he held his shoulders and went to find Tracy.
Because Mr. Azik moved too fast, Klein, who was caught off guard, did not have time to divine, but he was not too worried. After all, Tracy was only a Sequence Five. When he arrived at the place, Azik realized that there was some danger through communicating with the spirits, but it was not a big problem. When they found Tracy, they discovered that this "not a big problem" meant that the opposite party was the "White Saint" of the Witch Sect, Katarina of Sequence Three.
"Why do you feel like a child calling his parents if he doesn't win a fight?" Leonard scratched his head: "One calls daddy and the other mommy..."
"There is a saying in our hometown, once a teacher, always a father." Luo Serge glanced at Azik and explained it in Rune language.
Azik smiled: "Klein went to find those documents because of me. It's more or less my own business."
Katarina recognized the "Death Archon", and the two parties restrained themselves without causing too much conflict. . Catalina gave the document to Azik without even asking for any price.
"She hopes that His Highness Eggers' memory will be revived, and she also hints that this will have dire consequences. Is she doing this on purpose, hoping to provoke conflict?" Audrey glanced at Azik, who was sitting beside him drinking coffee. This middle-aged man has soft features and a gentle temperament, which is far from the "Death Archon" in the history of the Fourth Age.
Azik sensed the sight of the girl's "audience", and there was a lot of emotion in his smile: "It seems that it hasn't been explained yet? I am my father's resurrected successor, and my soul was divided into two halves after the Pale Disaster. At present, This half is the humanity accumulated through reincarnations, and the other half..." He paused: "It is the "Death Archon" that swept through the northern and southern continents in the Pale Disaster, bringing countless deaths and despair. ", later became one of the foundations of the Artificial Death God of the Spiritual Religion."
Audrey's green eyes were full of disbelief: "This half now? In other words, you gave up the other half?"
"The goddess once gave it to me. Choice." Azik glanced at the beautiful and dignified goddess in black at the front with a smile: "And I chose to maintain my humanity and not be promoted."
Everyone understood that this should be a deal with the goddess. Mr. Azik will no longer be promoted, which means that the resurrection of Death has been destroyed, and the goddess can control the uniqueness of Death without any worries.
It seemed like a gift, but in fact, the price had already been marked... Paris sighed secretly, but the goddess did not make things perfect, and the current situation may be the best choice for Azik.
"Maybe these memories and humanity are more precious to me." Azik picked up the coffee with a calm and gentle smile on his face. Life now is already precious.
"Speaking of which, everyone has chosen human nature." He smiled and glanced at the many angels present. They all had different personalities. Will looked like a child, and Palles always mocked but loved Leonard very much. , Bernadette also has a deep obsession with her father and relatives. The newly promoted Tarot Club members also have their own personalities and preferences, and there is no tendency for divinity to overwhelm humanity.
"This is a good thing." Black Cat looked at everyone present with some relief. Stable humanity and strong emotions not only help everyone maintain themselves, but also serve as anchors for each other to stabilize each other.
The pursuit of the Death Documents came to an end. Azik left again. Klein asked for some information from Arrods, helped Will escort the Dice of Destiny, and turned around to prepare for volunteer registration so that he could quickly digest the useless information. Face Man Potion.
"Carrying patients, cleaning the toilet..." Emlyn watched the cold-faced Gehrman doing these things with dull eyes, feeling that his outlook on life had been impacted again. "Sherlock, you are so generous..." His volunteer work at the Earth Church was cleaning, distributing Holy Communion, treating illnesses and saving lives, and he had never cleaned the toilet!
Still such a dirty toilet!
"To a certain extent, this kind of acting is also difficult..." Leonard swallowed. If he could, he would never choose this way of acting.
"Mr. Fool, you've worked really hard..." Audrey didn't know what to say.
Fortunately, such days did not last long, and Hermann received another commission that was extremely suitable for the role: pretending to be Loen Admiral Amyrius who came to inspect.
"The person we hired to pretend to be an admiral died, so we hired an adventurer?" This coincidence made Will suddenly frown: "There's a problem."
"Could it be arranged again?" Leonard The first reaction was 0-08.
"Actually, it's the Mother Tree of Desire." Black Cat sighed: "I was targeted by Him."
There is no difficulty in playing the role of Amyrius, as long as he pretends to be cold and majestic, and makes good use of "I understand", even if During a meeting, I could be so bored that no one would notice if I drew a turtle on my notebook.
"So, if you replace those big shots with curly baboons, the kingdom can still run." Benson, who is the secretary of the Ministry of Finance, could no longer resist the desire to complain.
Xio, who also works in the government, nodded in agreement: "Curly-haired baboons are more suitable. They will neither give random orders nor throw blame."
The two looked at each other. Although they had different ranks and different affairs, they actually gave birth to a child. A sense of confidant.
"It feels like there is no danger around the general." Alger was observing the surroundings carefully. Mr. Fool said that there was the influence of the Mother Tree of Desire here, but he didn't notice it at all.
Soon, his doubts were answered. Everyone was shocked when Cynthia, whose body was covered with tumors and flowers, appeared on the screen.
"General, I want to have a child with you..." Cynthia, who had become a monster, was still driven by her obsession to get close to Klein, but Klein made a prompt decision and purified her.
"If it is contaminated by the mother tree, giving birth to a child is only the lightest thing..." Russell wiped away cold sweat. When he thought that Origin Castle might be covered with disgusting grinning flowers and squirming pieces of flesh on the ground, he reflexively wanted to vomit.
"I have been provoking foreign gods since Sequence 6..." Pales felt that he still underestimated Mr. Fool. His ability to reach this point is really beyond ordinary people's imagination.
"Ordinary people recite the name of the Mother Tree of Desire. This way of death is already considered." Emlyn took a sip of coffee to suppress his nausea. He has lived in the Southern Continent for a long time and has become accustomed to all kinds of mutations caused by the Mother Tree of Desire. He felt for Cynthia, but knew there was no better way to save her.
"She was also used." Leonard nodded with some emotion at the stars. This is why the church tries its best to prevent ordinary people from contacting the extraordinary. Once a malicious high-ranking being targets you, there is no room for resistance.
"This admiral is also very pitiful." Foers thought to the other side: "Within three days, my brother was dismissed from his post, his mistress died, and his secretary was gone. I just went out to do something, and my life was turned upside down... ..."
"You are a big shot, and you will encounter various changes if you are not careful." Black Cat said calmly. Anyway, it was definitely not him who caused the trouble!
However, after this encounter, Klein's Faceless Man potion was also digested a lot. He contacted Cattleya and planned to take the "Future" to find the mermaids he needed for promotion.
After meeting Daniz and Edwina before, everyone's impression of pirates has been greatly subverted. However, when facing the crew of the Future, they found that their imagination was still a bit insufficient.
The taciturn second mate Heath, the carefree bosun Nina, the book-loving navigator Olotov, but the most terrible thing is the first mate Frank Lee...
"It's Mr. Frank!" Derrick was very happy: " His mushrooms are great, I always wanted to thank him in person!"
No, you don't want to... Cattleya pushed up her glasses: "I will convey it to you." I hope his impression of Frank will be better in the future.
Next, everyone saw fish with wine flowing in their veins, cattle hybridized with wheat, and various bizarre hybrid experimental ideas.
"It's interesting." Russell thought carefully about his words: "It's just that this method is a bit..." Don't just release fish with alcohol in their veins into the sea!
"But that apple that can cure diseases is great." Derrick was still curious and happy about Frank, and even liked him even more after seeing him use a sweet apple to cure a slight cold caused by the biotoxin bottle. "Toxin expert".
"Hybridization is a good technology..." Black Cat bared his teeth: "The key is how to apply it. In short, Ms. 'Hermit', please be sure to keep an eye on him."
Cattleya sighed: "I will."
Gehrman successfully boarded the ship and took the Future to enter the ruins of the God War. This ruins is full of dangers, filled with the remnants of divine power from different channels, and filled with the ravings of the true Creator. The nights here are also very special. If you can't sleep in the dark, you will disappear the next day.
"Somewhat similar to the dark night of Silver City." Derrick immediately thought of the lightless night of Silver City that he was familiar with. It seems that this ruins of the God War also have similar power remaining.
"There are illusory monsters, and it seems that there is also the participation of the power of the audience." Audrey also identified a trace.
Klein, who was able to stay awake in his dreams, found a strange black monastery in his dream, where he saw a treasure hunter who was extremely unlucky because he copied a mural with the image of Ourolius.
"Anderson!" Daniz yelled out the name through gritted teeth.
"He became like this because of some legacy of Ouroboros?" Will laughed and said, "It's quite unlucky."
In Anderson's story, some of his companions chose to explore the dreamland, and all of them mutated and died. Herman asked him how he did it, and he said, "I am the third who explores forward..."
"Shit!" Daniz was so shocked that he almost jumped up: "It happened right there. "Who did I meet later?"
"He lied to me." Black Cat looked ugly and didn't want to admit that he was also frightened. If the night hadn't ended at that time, he would probably have just drawn his gun and killed the opponent.
The unlucky Anderson was actually a little lucky. The Future passed by the island where he lived. Gehrman subconsciously attacked him when he saw him. Fortunately, Cattleya judged that he had no real mutation and allowed him to board the Future. However, as soon as he got on the boat, he attracted a stone giant monster, which was fake and could not drop materials.
"He was still provocative under such circumstances. He was lucky not to be killed on the spot by the hermit and the world." Emlyn really couldn't figure out Anderson's brain circuit. Does the hunter's provocateur potion have such a strong impact? He looked at Daniz as if that was not the case.
"The influence of that stupid snake is very rigid and will weaken with time and distance. In other words, the fact that he survived shows that his luck is not too bad." Will smiled: "In short, he is lucky. .
"There is indeed a lot of remaining divine power in this sea area. Apart from the influence of the Night Path and the True Creator, the Storm, God of War and the Sun also have obvious traces. As for the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, it may not be obvious." Leonard counted and appeared. Several ways: "Isn't the Earth Mother involved?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Frank's experimental products also mutated. Those weird products that can make bulls produce milk got into the deck of the Future, and created a There was a stream of strange milk, and the gun muzzle of the Future even produced milk, and one crew member even had a watermelon growing on his head...
"...Can I drink it..." Derrick was at a loss.
"Is this a matter of whether I can drink it?" Forsi felt that even when he was at his craziest, he wouldn't have had this kind of inspiration. "Could this person have been contaminated by an alien god?" Xio felt his fists were sore and his heart was filled with a sense of crisis.
"It's scary because he doesn't have it." Cattleya looked at Frank in the picture with complicated eyes. At that time, he was not at a high level, but now, he is already moving towards a demigod... If she hadn't intentionally suppressed him, maybe this The world is over.
"The star general is not simple..." Alger wiped his cold sweat. He had never known that Cattleya had such a terrifying number one person.
The house leaked and it rained all night. Already in a state of chaos, the Future was entangled by a mutated giant carrion monster and bumped into Hell's Admiral Ludwell.
"It's all Anderson's misfortune." Cattleya looked at this memory and felt that she sighed a lot, and Black Cat's face was also very ugly. He originally wanted to force Walkdwell with Anderson, but the other party actually He didn't catch up, so he was in dire straits. He almost didn't make it back to the Future, and even lost his fish-man cuff pins.
Although Mr. Azik later took action and turned Ludwell into his marionette and picked up the arm pins, he still held a grudge and didn't even have a good look towards Anderson.
"In short, this person always makes others hate him, whether intentionally or not?" Pales had a complicated expression, which could be considered a talent.
In the dream on the last night at the ruins of the God War, Hermann met the mysterious Queen Bernadette, who defrauded him of his identity as the "Rogue" Black Emperor and reminded him of his destiny in Mount Honazis. Gehrman immediately had some guesses. He asked Cattleya, who was sitting hugging her knees outside the black monastery, if she had any other intentions with her fanfare when she picked him up on the boat, but he got an unexpected answer.
"I won't tell you!" Everyone was a little surprised after hearing this childish speech. Cattleya lowered her head in embarrassment. She had always found it difficult to restrain her temper when it came to issues related to the Queen.
"What qualifications do I have to break up with her? I'm just an exiled person." Cattleya sat there with her knees crossed, maintaining a waiting posture. She was obviously a powerful pirate general, but she felt inexplicably aggrieved.
"Cattleya." Bernadette looked at the girl she had raised with her own hands. She had never called Cattleya her daughter, and Cattleya had never called her mother, but there was no doubt that the relationship between them was like a mother and a child. , a feeling so strong that it cannot be separated.
"Queen." Cattleya moved slightly towards Bernadette. Bernadette stretched out her hand and held her palm like she did a long time ago.
"You don't even have a son-in-law, but you have a granddaughter." Russell muttered in a low voice, but a smile appeared on his face. He also stretched out his disembodied arms, wrapping both Bernadette and Cattleya in his arms.
Although they had missed a lot before, and it would take a long time to see each other again, at least at this moment, they were together.
"Ahem, but I still have to say it." The black cat knocked on the table with its tail: "Information about the Tarot Club cannot be leaked."
Cattleya's cheeks became hot again, remembering the experience of being beaten. I still have some lingering fears.
"Although we are now the Church of the Righteous God, and your ranks are higher, we still need to do the confidentiality work that we should do. After all, we are facing a more powerful enemy now." Black Cat's expression was not joking. They still haven't seen enough of various external enemies such as the "Fallen Mother Goddess" and the "Mother Tree of Desire" that are infiltrating power.
"Otherwise, I will serve as a warning to others." Russell consciously became a negative example: "Be careful of the moon, be careful of the stars!"
Everyone nodded. After dealing with organizations such as Outer Gods, Rose School, and Witch Cult for so long, everyone has accumulated some experiences and lessons.
After finding the mermaid and being successfully promoted, Herman purchased the "Death Knell" revolver through Anderson's introduction. At this time, Daniz on the Golden Dream discovered that their captain had not appeared for three days.
(13) Love and Hate:
Edwina disappeared, and the whole boat was helpless. Danitz had no choice but to write to Hermann asking him to come and save his life. After Herman and Anderson arrived at the Golden Dream, they quickly determined through divination that Edwina had been sucked into "Grossell's Travels". In order to save the captain, Danitz volunteered to accompany Gehrman as a guinea pig to enter the book. Hermann gave him a piece of paper with the honorable name of "The Fool" written on it.
"So you became the Fool's first believer?" Russell felt a little funny. "Fellow, aren't you taking advantage of others' danger?"
"I'm also trying to save people." Black Cat said calmly. He had to determine whether this book could cut off the connection with Origin Castle. After all, from then on, Daniz was responsible for sacrificing delicious food to him, inquiring about information, running errands, taking care of the resistance first, and then helping Silver City, all the way to becoming the envoy of God, so there was nothing wrong with him.
Gehrman, Anderson and Danitz entered the travel journal and successfully found Edwina. She has become a member of Grossel's team. This adventure team gathered a group of people from different races, different beliefs, different eras, and different countries to challenge the "King of the North" Yurisian.
"Mobet." Pales looked at the chatty young man in strange clothes and chattering in the image, with a little nostalgia in his eyes. Zoroastrian's children have already died one after another in Amon's pursuit. Leonard is the only young man who can call him "Old Man".
"Mr. Grossel is a very powerful giant." Derrick looked at Grossel's tall body. Although Silver City inherited the path and bloodline of giants, this was the first time he saw a real giant. What does it look like.
"That Elf Singer...she was the former owner of my Ocean Singer trait?" Argel felt something was wrong. Listening to that familiar and beautiful voice vaguely aroused the emotions he felt when he first obtained the Sequence Five Extraordinary trait. remember.
"Yes." Black Cat nodded, and Alger immediately confirmed his guess: given the characteristics to him, then this lady must not have left Grossel's Travels alive...
"In fact, they are all dead..." Black Cat The cat sighed. They have spent thousands of years in the book, and their lives have long been exhausted. And what they, the latecomers, can do is send them back to their hometowns. But fortunately, when I return to the book, they will still be there.
After rescuing Edwina, Klein bought "Grossell's Travels" and the key to the Giants' Court, and then returned to Backlund, assuming the identity of Dwayne Dantès.
"Dantes...are you preparing for revenge?" Russell looked at the black cat, who nodded: "Thank you for recreating "The Count of Monte Cristo"."
"Playing as a rich man..." Meili Shah looked at Dantès in the video with some curiosity, wondering what her second brother, who always loved money, would do. As a result, before even watching a few scenes, she felt a little tight in her chest.
"A housekeeper with an annual salary of 115 pounds, a house with an annual rent of 315 pounds... Klein, you are so wasteful..." Her voice was trembling. You know, every gold pound he earned at sea was earned by risking his life. She could accept spending it on extraordinary properties and magical items, but she couldn't accept it at all!
"To be honest, if I had known that stealing notes would end up hiking a mountain, I would have gone straight to the mountain climbing." The black cat was lying on the coffee table with an expressionless face. Even if he became a god at this moment, Walter kept nagging him how much money he would have to spend. , can still make him hover on the edge of losing control.
"You have known for a long time that the ancestors of the Antigonus family are sleeping on the top of Mount Honazis. You will go there sooner or later." The goddess's voice was as quiet and peaceful as ever, but at this moment there was a slight hint of Kusuo: "Of course, you can also interpret this as a small punishment for stealing my things."
"Thank you for your tolerance." The black cat tapped the stars on its chest with its tail. Without the goddess's acquiescence and help, he would not have been able to succeed.
Dawn Dantès's life is spent in tedious social interactions and flowing money. After making careful preparations, Klein sneaked behind Chanis Gate and was immediately sent to the foggy town by 0-17. There he met Mr. A and Ms. Despair, and also met Zaratul who was supposed to be crazy.
"You soothsayers should fight each other on sight." Russell looked at Zaratul in the image. He gave the magician's potion formula and the name of the three-sequence potion, and asked Klein to get the obsidian back and bring it with him. It seemed fair to take away his ashes, but the important information was kept secret, and I felt my fists were itching again.
"Please don't use the map cannon." Black Cat reminded Russell: "And you can't beat me now."
Russell shut up.
Klein asked Zaratul to summon a historical projection of fish flesh for him, and then took out Frank's mushroom. Cattleya's spiritual intuition suddenly gave a crazy warning. "That's a mushroom that will multiply crazily when it touches fish meat? What did you do with it?"
"Nothing, just feed it to Mr. A." The black cat grinned and showed a somewhat scary smile: "Next, love Not recommended for those who eat fish and mushrooms."
After some deception and negotiation, the half-crazy Panatya agreed to cooperate. Mr. A stayed in the stomach of Marionette Senior, and Klein swallowed the fish. Zaratul gave the wrong sign to open the door, and Panatia escaped first, but was immediately killed. As for Mr. A, after Marionette ate fish, bright mushrooms grew all over his body.
"So disgusting..." Audrey had no appetite at all. There happened to be a cream of mushroom soup in front of her. Now she looked at this soup as if it was a potion that would make it go out of control if touched.
Dixi's grilled fish and other dishes with mushrooms no longer tasted good. Everyone put down their tableware. Emlyn even couldn't help but retched twice. He had eaten a lot of fish just now.
"The products of Sequence Six can make people look like this." Bernadette suppressed her nausea and observed Mr. A. She judged that even at the demigod level, this change might not be reversed.
"As long as it is used properly, it can be a good thing to some extent... I have used it once." Cattleya adjusted her glasses. She and Alger also used them when they dealt with the followers of the Mother Tree of Desire around the craftsman Sharf. This trick.
"I didn't eat mushrooms for a long time after that operation." Alger was still frightened when he thought of what happened that night.
"Anyway, don't underestimate Frank..." The black cat held his forehead with his tail: "Ms. Hermit, I repeat, please take good care of him."
"I will!" Cattleya said firmly.
After successfully escaping from the foggy town, the Red Gloves also noticed the invasion of Chanis Gate. During rounds of investigations, Dawn's anomalies caught Leonard's attention. After investigation and reasoning, Leonard finally locked his identity.
"I went to Tingen to dig your grave." At this point, there was nothing to hide, so Leonard told the truth about his actions. He thought he had exposed Klein's disguise, but it turned out that the other party had countless layers of disguises waiting for him.
"I know." Black Cat was not surprised: "I had a precognitive dream the night you dug the grave. Otherwise, how could I have deceived you when you were in your dream to test me?"
Leonard thought of how he had been frightened by him. The experience was both annoying and funny: "You are so good at acting. I thought you were Mr. Azik pretending to be you!"
"Me?" Azik was a little surprised, and Pales coughed: "Because I know that you also have a sealed artifact that changes your face, and you mistook Dwayne Dantès for being an old friend who survived the Fourth Age, so you misled him."
"This is a clever misunderstanding." Azik couldn't help laughing. , I didn't expect Klein to be so bluffing.
"But at that time, Mr. Fool's Dao En was played by his beloved ones in turn, so who was the other person?" Audrey keenly sensed something was wrong: "Mr. Star did not join the meeting at that time, so there is no need for Mr. Fool to be in the meeting. "
...It's Arrodes." Black Cat clicked on the small mirror on the coffee table, and gorgeous fireworks exploded on the mirror. He originally wanted to skip this section, but unexpectedly someone asked about it.
"...This thing? It didn't ruin you or the people around you?" Leonard expressed deep doubts.
"I am loyal to my great master!" Several lines of blood-red words immediately appeared on the mirror, filling the entire mirror surface. "Although sometimes I can't restrain my instinct of asking questions, I am doing my job seriously!"
"Who would believe it..." Fors, Leonard, and everyone who knew the temperament of this mirror were silently doubting it in their hearts. After the 0-32 clip was shown, their hunch was confirmed.
"Has a wide range of hobbies in women..." Emlyn twitched the corners of his lips. This mirror actually talked about such gossip in front of the bishop of the Church of Night. Did he really care about his master's reputation?
"Arrods seems to have hit the mark on the preferences of the bishop, the valet and the butler?" Audrey observed the changes in the expressions of the three people around her: "So that's it, it's not targeting Dwayne Dantès, played by Mr. Fool. , but aimed at the bishop and the others. In a sense, he is loyal, but it still affects Mr. Fool..."
"But this incident did not affect Dwayne Dantès's reputation too much. After all, he is still single. And he is a relatively charming gentleman." Forsi thought: "This character is actually very interesting. He looks elegant and gentle but actually has a lot of secrets. Mr. Fool seems to be very good at this kind of charming character. ." She immediately thought that it was because Mr. Fool himself was a deep, sophisticated, gentle and kind person.
"Why do you always use Hermann's identity to scare me?" Thinking of this, she felt aggrieved for no reason.
After successfully joining forces with Leonard, Klein quickly used Dawn's identity to get in touch with the military and agreed to sell arms to the Southern Continent for the military. At the same time, Amon's clone also came to Backlund. Leonard and Klein both had to leave Backlund to escape the limelight. Unexpectedly, as soon as Klein arrived in the Southern Continent, he discovered traces of Ince Zangwill on Midway Island.
"Now that I think about it, that should have been Adam's arrangement." Black Cat sighed. As soon as he had an idea of promotion to Sequence Four, Ince arrived in front of him. Moreover, Leonard's team happened to be transferred to the Southern Continent, and Anderson Danitz was also on the side. If there was no arrangement in the middle, he would not believe it even to death.
At that time, Mr. Azik also recovered most of his memory, and directly gave Hell Admiral Ludwell to him as a secret puppet. The high-sequence suppression of the Death Path left Ludwell unable to resist, and he knelt down to accept it.
"Mr. Azik feels like a different person." Derrick clearly felt that the cold oppression was not like Azik sitting here at the moment.
"Perhaps this is the majesty of the Death Archon." Xio was also afraid subconsciously, but when he thought that Azik Eggers had chosen humanity, he sat up straight again.
"Although he looks scary, he still cares about Mr. Fool so much and even gave him a powerful marionette." Foer thought of his teacher Dorian. He also tried his best to cultivate her in this way, giving her recipes and materials. Complete materials and give items. No matter how he looks on the outside, His Highness the Angel of Death still cares for the students as always, which proves that his humanity still prevails.
In the dark mausoleum, Azik was in danger, and Klein had no choice but to try to use the Luck Stealer's Talisman.
Although the goddess had heard that Klein tried to save him before, Azik only now understood what exactly Klein had decided.
He wanted to trade his life for his life, betting that he could be resurrected and save Azik.
"Klein..." There was a hint of mist in his dark eyes.
That is the artificial god of death, the other half of his soul. If he wants to forcefully bear such a fate, it can only be solved by dying once.
"Thank you, Klein." The words came to his lips, but he swallowed them all. He finally just smiled, and the black cat jumped into his lap and nuzzled into his broad, warm palm.
"Whoever speaks of grass will be rewarded with three rays of spring." Russell muttered in Chinese. Bernadette glanced at him in confusion: "Dad, what did you say?"
"Nothing." Russell drank. Taking a sip of Coke: "Fortunately, there is a good ending."
The goddess of the night appeared in time and interrupted Azik's mutation. In the end, Azik chose to retain his humanity and fell into a deep sleep.
"I slept for a long time after that and missed a lot." Azik sighed with emotion: "Klein still needs my protection as a Sequence Five before going to sleep, but when he wakes up, he has become a god."
He rubbed the black cat . The back hair said: "I hope you can sleep peacefully and wake up early."
"I will." Black Cat blinked, after all, this was his promise.
Next, he started busy collecting promotion materials. Explored the city of Calderon and hunted the spiritual predators. While running around, the Red Gloves also traced Ince's whereabouts. The gears of fate turned again, and finally, the Avengers of Tingen gathered together to sound the death knell for Ince Zangwill.
At that time, Ince was a Sequence 4 demigod, carrying 0-08, and was possessed by the evil spirit of "Red Angel" Medici. On Klein's side, Leonard's grandfather, who had the highest Sequence Five, also fell into a deep sleep due to the spell made by the Insect of Separation, and could not help.
This seemed like an impossible battle to win.
Klein used the calamity spell prayed to the goddess, used the Poseidon Scepter, sacrificed Ludwell, and cooperated with Daly to send away the Red Angel evil spirit. Daly took the "Flower of Spirits" and paid the price of losing control. , sent away the spiritual creatures brought by 0-08.
"Daly..." Leonard sniffed. The black-robed woman in the image fell to the ground, with white fluff and black scales emerging from her body. She no longer had the strength to fight.
She wanted to do something, she didn't want to just watch and face regret and death. She has nothing to fear and nothing to expect, all she wants is revenge.
But there's still a little bit left, a little bit left.
Ince is a demigod who has gained divinity. Even if he is on the verge of losing control, as long as he shows an incomplete form of a mythical creature, Leonard can lose control when he sees him. As for Klein, who continued to use lightning storms, his spirituality was on the verge of exhaustion.
In the dense lightning storm, with his eyes closed tightly and unable to get a response from Pales, Leonard desperately recited the Fool's name and gained "vision."
"Go to hell, Ince Zangwill!" Following the roar, the "Luck Stealer" spell hit Ince Zangwill like a mountain and a tsunami.
Ince, who was already crazy, was swallowed up by the silver-white lightning storm and suffered severe injuries, but he still did not die.
The audience's hearts were once again in suspense. At this time, the spiritually exhausted Klein could no longer use the Poseidon Scepter. He decisively returned to reality and came with the "Death Knell"!
Eight consecutive shots, for Leonard, Daly, Megaos, the unknown internal watcher, for the Blackthorn Security Company, for all the Nighthawks, for himself, and for the captain, Dunn.
At the end of the drama, Adam came and took away 0-08, giving the final gift.
The gorgeous revenge finally came to an end in the last dance between Klein and Daly, who transformed into Dunn.
The audience only came to their senses at this moment and began to wipe the corners of their eyes, noses and cheeks.
There was silence on Origin Castle for a long time.
(Final Chapter) Traveler
"Although my time in Tingen was short, it meant a lot to me." The black cat looked at Ince Zangwill's body in the image with a solemn expression.
That represents the end of his original bond with this world.
Later, Leonard was pulled onto the gray fog by him because he recited the Fool's honorable name. He gave Leonard the right to draw cards, but the only card in the prepared deck was "stars".
"So why do you still need me to smoke?" Leonard couldn't believe it. Is this some fun game?
"Soothsayers always need a sense of ritual." The black cat raised its tail at him.
"After Leonard, there has been no new person joining this party. Now that the video is shown here, I should have made it clear about my name, as well as my angels and messengers."
He looked around and relaxed. The tone: "Do you have any other questions?"
In a high-end hotel in Intis, they sat in a fan-shaped circle facing a full-length mirror.
The two demigods had sealed the room with spiritual walls, checked their surroundings, and looked at the summoning symbols in their hands.
The person who sent them the summoning symbol was a spiritual creature with blond hair, red eyes, and four neat heads. His messenger, who called himself "The Fool," was ordered to come and order them to summon the Fool's servant Arrodes to listen to the oracle.
They have never seen this angel. All previous instructions from Mr. Fool were passed through Mercury, the fellow fortune teller of the Church of Fool. But three days ago, he was just judged as "blasphemy" and imprisoned in Bayam's cathedral. The "telephone" made by Hephaestus's sealed artifact could not be connected, and other "travelers" from the Church of Fools could not be seen. he.
"Arrods was only a Level 2 Sealed Artifact before. Maybe Mercury did something wrong and angered God, so he informed us in another way...it's okay." Although it's not sure whether the spiritual creature is the Fool. What is the purpose of the angel below? However, a "traveler" belonging to the Mechanical Church has seen the information on this "magic mirror" before and is sure that the symbol given by the other party is correct.
Arrodes' trivia game required spectators, so he invited a companion to come along.
"Come on, let's have a social death." They were still smiling when they finally sealed the room with a spiritual wall.
At least the oracles passed through Mercury before were harmless. Moreover, whoever the Fool wants to deal with does not need to borrow the power of the magic mirror.
After taking three deep breaths, one of them reached out and drew a secret symbol representing the magic mirror on the mirror.
There was a burst of water on the mirror.
At the same time, the "travelers" in Bayam, Intis and Feneport also arranged the same rituals in different places.
"There's news from Arrodes." The silver mirror above Source Castle suddenly rippled in circles.
"Fellows, have you finally called you after watching the movie?" Russell moved to a place closer to Arrods. The goddess also stood up and walked to his side.
"Dear great and merciful master, so far, the target people have all seen the images you want them to see. They request to talk to you. Do you want to accept it?"
"Accept." This is what he has been waiting for all morning. On.
"Due to the large number of target persons, and many of them are not in Backlund, Arrods cannot transmit their images one by one, and can only convey your instructions in text. You won't blame Arrods, right?
" It doesn't matter." Black Cat walked to the mirror and sat down. It didn't matter that he couldn't see the image. After all, he was just a cat now, and the goddess and Huang Tao were not suitable for being in the camera.
Everyone in the Tarot Society also craned their necks to watch. Although the distance was a bit far, the vision of angels and saints was enough to see the words on the mirror clearly. Only Benson and Melissa had some difficulties. Palles very thoughtfully deceived the physical rules of distance here, allowing them to clearly see the content on the Arrodes mirror even from their seats.
"Hello, Mr. Fool." The first thing that popped up was a line of silver words, followed by a blood-red name: Hephaestus.
"The God of Craftsmanship? From the Mechanical Church?" Russell looked at the code name and couldn't help laughing: "I'm so ambitious, fellow man."
"The God of Craftsmanship?" Bernadette looked at her father in confusion: "What do you mean? Is this the name of a god?"
"Yes, it is the name of a legendary god of our time." Russell explained: "He is the god of craftsmanship and the god of fire."
"Isn't this? They are blaspheming the gods..." Alger was shocked and directly used the name of God as his code name. What kind of people are these?
"The same will happen next." After Hephaestus sent out the first greeting, familiar names such as Ares, Artemis, Apollo, Hades, and Demeter appeared one after another, greeting Klein. Refreshed the screen. Russell explained everything. The more he explained, the more frightened the expressions of everyone in the Tarot Club became.
"Although after knowing the secret of Sequence Zero, you will have less respect for the gods, but they seem to be particularly different." Azik rubbed the coffee cup in his hand. As the biological son of the God of Death, he did not blindly believe in the gods, but Still in awe of their power. It's just that this group of people, who are just demigods, dare to take the name of gods, which shows that their attitude towards gods is indeed very contemptuous.
"Mr. Fool, are people so disrespectful to gods in ancient times?" Derrick couldn't help but feel curious.
"Most of the gods at that time only existed in legends. Reality was far stronger than mystery. Therefore, humans did not believe in gods as much as they do now. Many people were even atheists." Black Cat smiled, not believing in God. They do not believe in fate and believe in themselves more than they believe in gods. This is probably a common characteristic of the remnants of the past.
"Atheist..." Audrey chewed on the word, unable to imagine what kind of cognition it was.
"You may not be able to imagine what it was like in that era. You will understand if you learn more about the old culture in the future." The goddess sighed softly. This kind of spirit is also their biggest reliance on overcoming obstacles and climbing all the way.
"By the way, fellow, what's your code name?" Russell didn't forget Creole.
"Mercury." Creole smiled: "The painting style is a bit wrong, but the 'god messenger' Hermes has been used by Mr. Fool. Speaking of which, if it weren't for 'Merlin Hermes' The story of the two identities of "Gehrman Sparrow" has been widely circulated, and I will not join the Church of Fools and become a diviner."
"Hello everyone." Klein, no, it should be Zhou Mingrui. Looking at the lines of text on the mirror, he couldn't help but smile.
"
