Chapter 1028: Spoils Sharing Conference
"I choose this one." Audrey pointed to the "Black Knight" characteristic belonging to the Dark Saint Kosma.
No one was surprised, because the remaining Sequence 4 "Witch King" corresponds to the path of "Moon" Emlyn. This vampire who did not participate in the hunt due to the recent tension in Backlund has been promoted to The "Crimson Scholar" in Sequence 5 is in urgent need of follow-up potion materials.
It is an unspoken tacit understanding within the Tarot Society that members who need to be promoted are given priority. If Miss Justice chooses this extraordinary characteristic, it will ultimately be transferred to Mr. Moon in the form of a transaction, including Klein. "Justice"'s comment on this will naturally come to everyone's mind:
"I'm not short of money, why should I choose the 'Witch King'?"
A casual remark from a wealthy person means that it is something that a poor person will never be able to achieve in his life. Height... Klein muttered secretly, pointed at the stacked gems and extraordinary materials, and the remaining seven "Star Worms", and reminded:
"You can still choose some."
Audrey randomly selected some colors that looked good . After picking up the gems and two "Star Worms", he looked at "Hermit" Cattleya and asked with a smile:
"Can you help me make this 'Black Knight' into a magical item of jewelry? Best Can have the ability of 'herding' and the magic of flesh and blood to heal injuries."
After tonight's cooperation, Cattleya has recognized this new demigod and no longer stereotypes him as just a rich and powerful person with insufficient actual combat ability. The noble lady nodded with a smile and agreed.
She recently joined the Tarot Society and helped the "Mysterious Queen" deliver Russell's diary and related information. She has once again established close contact with the queen she admires. It is not difficult to ask the other party to help make a Sequence 4 magical item. And the "Moss Trappist Order" behind her also has corresponding channels, which is nothing more than spending more money.
As for the money, "Justice" agreed to provide it himself without hesitation, without even asking how much it would cost.
After experiencing the baptism of the money storm, Klein turned his somewhat dull eyes to Leonard, who looked a little anxious, and reminded him unkindly:
"It's your turn."
He doesn't even bother to pretend that he's not familiar with me now. , but the other members should have seen some clues... Leonard looked at the others, then looked at the "trophies" on the table, thought for a moment, and chose the extraordinary characteristics of the "Spirit Witch".
This extraordinary characteristic of being able to accommodate a large number of natural spirits even if it is not made into a magical item is very suitable for the "Spirit Witch"'s own combat method. In Leonard's hands, it can form the effect of one plus one greater than two.
"Aren't you going to choose the 'Witch King'?"
Angel, who had been silent until now, asked curiously.
Choosing it is nothing more than selling it to Mr. "Moon". That vampire who is short of money will have to wait until the gathering of the "Hermits of Destiny" a year later to cash it in. During this period, it would be too much to keep a copy of the demigod's extraordinary characteristics with you. It's dangerous, and it's not in the interests of me and the old man... Leonard explained in his heart, shook his head and said:
"I don't think my contribution in the operation is that big."
"Oh, your role is greater than It's bigger than you think," Klein lowered his voice and chuckled, "So pick another one."
Others nodded and had no objections - even if the price of a Sequence 4 extraordinary property is severely reduced. It can also be sold for 30,000 to 40,000 pounds at Tarot gatherings, and may even be sold for double the price at outside gatherings. Therefore, Leonard, who has voluntarily given up the "Witch King", can naturally choose more.
Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Leonard no longer persisted, and chose the "Faceless Man" as his second trophy. He also imitated "Justice" Audrey's behavior and entrusted Cattleya to help make it into a gift that he could own. Magical items with the ability to change appearance should preferably have smaller negative effects.
Changing his appearance and worrying about the negative effects... Could he be planning to give this magical item to Sherman? When I took her away from St. Samuel's Church just now, she acted as if she was forcibly suppressing some emotions. Could it be that something happened to the "Ring of Madness" again... Angel thought with some confusion and decided to go to Sherman tomorrow morning. Check on her situation where she lives, give her some advice as a person who has been there, and ask her not to suppress her desires too much.
After Leonard, it was naturally the turn of "Magician" Forsi, who acted as a bait to attract the attention of "Saint of Secrets". Her eyes swept over the remaining extraordinary characteristics that exuded different lusters, and then She took a deep look at the "Box of the Past" that silently sealed her inside, took a deep breath, pointed at Botis' head that was half smashed by the dragon, and said, " Just
him."
It would be a lie to say that she is not interested in the "Box of the Old Days" which is equivalent to a "0" level sealed object.
But she joined the action to avenge her teacher Dorian and the Abraham family. Even if she got the "Box of the Old Days", she would return it to her teacher instead of using it herself.
Moreover, "The World" and "Queen" had already agreed with the teacher on the return of the "Box of the Old Days" in front of her, so naturally she did not need to worry about it. Even if other extraordinary characteristics were made into corresponding sealed objects, it would be enough for a person who could already record half of them. For a "traveler" with a god-level ability, it is not very useful and needs to bear additional negative effects.
As for the "Mystic Mage" trait itself, her teacher Dorian had already promised to provide it to her after digesting the "Traveler". If she gave her the characteristics of the human headband and even the "Box of the Old Ones" As for Dorian, the latter might really suspect that Fors had become the mistress of the crazy adventurer Gehrman Sparrow, so he would respond to her requests.
There was something wrong with the way he looked at me and Mr. "World" last time, and the scary looks Miss "Queen" cast from time to time... Besides, I was just a bait, and I didn't even see the face of the enemy. Well, we've seen half of it now... There were so many thoughts in her mind, and her body secretly shrank into a ball.
I always felt that she couldn't let go in front of Klein. Could it be that the role of "crazy adventurer" was too successful... Seeing her being so cautious, shrinking like a cub surrounded by wolves, Angel sighed secretly and said:
" This is not a reward, it's just a common goal for everyone..." "Okay! Okay..."
Forsi shook his body and replied loudly, glancing at the "Queen" secretly. , and then chose the characteristic of "Punishing Knight" as his reward tonight.
This is the extraordinary characteristic that "Judge" Hugh Dilcha needs for his next promotion. It is worth about 8,000 pounds, or at least he has to make corresponding contributions in the war to be rewarded in "MI9". They originally planned to save it together. Money buys things in Tarot meetings, so I naturally choose it first at this moment.
Then, under Mr. World's gentle reminder, Forsi picked another "Star Bug" and half of the gems worth about 1,500 pounds, ending his "reward time."
As an "apprentice", there are never too many gems that can be used as ritual materials and raw materials for spells; as a normal woman, she lacks resistance to these shiny things.
After she finished her selection, Klein looked at the last participant in the hunting operation, "Judgment" Xio, who provided relevant information about the Backlund Bridge area and blocked Botis from teleporting away with an injunction in the early stages of the battle.
Without any need for him to remind him, this member who was often forgotten by the Tarot Society due to his height pointed at the only item besides extraordinary properties, gems and materials and said:
"I want this 'traveler's bag'."
This small black pocket torn from the robe of "Saint of Secrets" Botis can connect to a hidden space divided from the spiritual world and hide many items. The gems and extraordinary materials on the table are poured from the pocket. "Judgment" Xio naturally chose it because it was difficult for her to carry heavy weapons and a large number of items due to her size, and it seemed to have less value than other extraordinary characteristics, so it was very suitable for her as a "killer" helper.
In this way, there are still "Box of the Old Ones" on the table, the characteristics of "Witch King", "Hypnotist", and four "Star Worms" that have not been allocated.
They naturally belong to Miss "Queen" who has not yet made the selection - everyone thinks so, and they think it is very reasonable.
But to everyone's surprise, "Queen" Angel only selected the "Witch King", "Hypnotist" and two "Star Insects", leaving the most important "0" level sealed artifact to "The World".
Facing everyone's doubtful gazes, Klein pretended to smile deeply and said,
"This sealed artifact has suffered some powerful pollution. I do not intend to use it. Instead, I will return it to the Abraham family. Become part of a certain transaction. "
A transaction involving a "0" level sealed object... Audrey, Cattleya and others immediately began to imagine, and naturally guessed that this transaction was probably related to the extraordinary characteristics of Sequence 2.
After all, in their hearts, the only ones equivalent to sealed objects of this level are angels.
The temporary meeting came to an end amidst everyone's speculation and speculation. "Star" Leonard, as the only "working" official Beyonder present, carefully reminded several members who were still in Backlund to pay attention to their hidden whereabouts in the near future. In order to avoid being caught by organizations such as Nighthawks and Punishers who are actively investigating the "Tarot Society", or suffering crazy revenge from the "Aurora Society".
As for himself, as soon as he left the gray fog space and returned to reality, he hired a carriage and headed to the East District.
————
In the palace in the gray fog, the crimson light gradually faded away, leaving only Angel and Klein at the long bronze table.
Mr. "Fool" seems to satisfy Klein's request every time... He even kept me here after the temporary meeting. Could it be that he is the third time traveler in the "Light Cocoon" that Klein said?
Suppressing the doubts in his mind, Angel smiled, looked at the somewhat confused Klein, and asked in a gentle but unquestionable tone of voice:
"Now that the hunting of the 'Saint of Secrets' has come to an end, Then have you thought about how you will die?"
"Ah?"
Klein's eyes widened behind the gray mist.
(End of chapter)Chapter 1029: Choose Your Way of Death
I pretended to be Mr. Fool, and exposed her affairs from time to time with the attitude of a superior?
Was my kindness in reminding Ms. "Magician" to get more loot just now misunderstood by her?
Did she discover that I secretly bought medicine before?
...Thoughts came one after another in Klein's head, but under Angel's half-smiling gaze, he finally understood that the other party was referring to the previously discussed plan to "smuggle" into the Land Abandoned by the Gods using corpses.
"Have you confirmed it with your 'person in the mirror'? Is she really reminding me how to enter the Forsaken Land, and not just joking?" He asked cautiously.
Angel nodded and told Klein about the conversation with the man in the mirror in the "City of Disaster".
She said that I couldn't use the Source Castle to give my body to Derrick "The Sun" and then resurrect from the Silver City where he was. Does that mean that I couldn't accept a sacrifice after death... Could it be that Angel really had to kill me? Kill me and use the passages between different leak points in the "City of Disaster" to bring my body there... After listening to Angel's story, Klein leaned back on the high-backed chair and pondered.
His right hand subconsciously rested on the long bronze table, and he was about to tap his knuckles. Suddenly he remembered that this habit of his was also reflected in "The Fool", so he stopped abruptly, retracted his arm, and scratched his chin.
But he still noticed that Angel's eyes briefly stayed on his hands, and his expression was hidden behind the gray mist, which made him feel a little uneasy.
I always feel like after her "person in the mirror" revealed my identity, every move she made seemed like she was doubting me... Klein took a deep breath, forced out a smile, and changed the topic:
"Using '0 -61'What about the characteristics of the Box of the Past? Its first layer can seal me into it in the form of a toy, and then you can take it to Isla Sorna? Well, I gave the number 0-61 to myself. , This seems more formal, and the total number of '0' level sealed objects owned by the Zhengshen Church should not exceed fifty, so there will be no conflict."
"Then this sealed object should be regarded as the "Church of the Fool". A level 0 sealed artifact?"
Angel joked, and his tone immediately turned serious:
"I think this method is more dangerous than bringing you back from the dead. According to my guess, the pollution of the 'Box of the Old' probably comes from the stars. It comes from those beings that you cannot safely understand unless you are an angel, and the power of the 'seif' is somewhat opposed to this pollution. When I took the Box of the Old Days and traveled to the Land Abandoned by God, this seal The object is likely to be blocked at the other end, or a more unpredictable accident occurs.
"Once you stay in the first layer of the box for more than 24 hours, you will truly become a toy. In that case, you may not even have a chance to be resurrected. None. "
Hearing this, Klein also remembered that when Ms. "Hermit" sacrificed the Box of the Old Days to the gray fog not long ago, the gray fog that was probably composed of "Origin Castle" had a very big reaction. Its intensity was second only to divination, and it was counterattacked by the true god. Only with his presence as the controller, Gray Mist did not take any further action.
He had to admit that it was very difficult to use the "Box of the Old" to sneak into the land abandoned by the gods. The same thing may happen. If the "City of Disaster" rejects the pollution in this sealed object more seriously, it may be bounced to a location that is difficult for Angel to find, such as the star realm or the abyss
. , he decisively gave up his proposed plan and decided to exchange this contaminated sealed artifact for another from the Abraham family.
Although this is equivalent to the extraordinary characteristics of the "Planeswalker", I don't dare to embark on a journey to the stars. , I had no choice but to give up on the jump path, and went to the dark side of the "Soothsayer"... Moreover, Angel's "Man in the Mirror" and the Goddess reminded me that this is the only way out... He thought for a moment melancholy. , said to Angel:
"It seems that I can only let you take my body into the land abandoned by the gods. "
Have you come back after going around in circles... Angel showed a playful smile again, rubbed his hands under the table, and asked expectantly:
"So, have you figured out how to die? "
————
The East End in the middle of the night seemed quiet due to the cold winter temperature and the curfew order. Although there were still many homeless people wandering in the alleys, there were still many fewer homeless people than before.
Most of them stopped showing up not because of the curfew . , but starved to death, froze to death, or were forced to leave the city... His eyes swept through the dark corners, and Leonard's expression changed slightly.
I heard from Sherman that she had been hanging out in the East District since she was a child. In the streets and alleys, he was not much different from these people. It was not until he became an Extraordinary and met Angel that he had the opportunity to change his destiny... He suddenly thought of the past that Sherman had inadvertently revealed, and his mood
became even lower. In an apartment in the North District, Leonard came to the door of Sherman's house with ease and knocked lightly. After waiting for a moment and receiving no response, he turned the doorknob and
the door was unlocked . He easily pushed it open, revealing a dark corner of the living room.
It was strange that Sherman forgot to lock the door, or...
Leonard became nervous inside. He pressed the "Word of the Sea" cane under his windbreaker with one hand and held it with the other. He opened the door completely and used the dark vision of "Sleepless Man" to look inside the room, alerting him to possible sneak attacks from the dark.
He was not worried about the most common thief in the East District breaking into Sherman's home, even if the witch was seriously injured. He had just recovered and was in poor condition, so he could deal with a few thieves without any problem,
but he was afraid that the "Aurora Society" would come to take revenge.
Should he chant Mr. Fool's honorable name and ask for his help, or Angel's, she was already there. She is an angel, and she is Sherman's boss. He will not ignore her... Leonard walked carefully into the room step by step, and thoughts kept flashing through his mind. Suddenly he heard the old voice from Palles saying:
"Don't be so careful. There are no enemies in the room, she should be in the bedroom. "
For some reason, Leonard always felt that there was a sense of teasing in the old man's words.
Strange, does He want me to accidentally break into Sherman's bedroom to see my joke?
He murmured secretly and decided to ask through the door. Asked about Sherman's situation, and left immediately after confirming that everything was normal, so that the encounter of this night would not become the subject of repeated jokes about himself. Lun walked through the living room where the furniture was neatly arranged, unlike a young woman living alone. Nader came to the door of the room Palles mentioned, knocked on the door again, and asked in a low voice:
"Sherman? Are you okay?
"Sherman? " "
Unable to wait for a response, Leonard subconsciously reached for the door handle, but stopped at the last moment. With a smile on his face that said, "I won't be fooled," he secretly approached the door and listened to what was going on in the room.
An extremely suppressed but touching groan came from behind the door
-
"I knew that Leonard was absent-minded at last night's impromptu meeting and was in a hurry to leave. Sure enough, it was to find Sherman... ...
"I didn't expect their progress to be so fast. Fortunately, I didn't enter the bedroom directly from the mirror world, otherwise the three of them would be very embarrassed... By the way, there is also Pales Zoroas who is parasitic in Leonard's body." De, He wouldn't have watched the whole process, right? He is really an angel with a bad personality. Are all the 'thief' paths like this?
"It seems that Sherman's emotional problems no longer require my guidance... but the Ring of Madness has once again 'contributed' Should we completely destroy it and restore it to its extraordinary characteristics? "
After returning home from the East End in despair, Angel still had the scene he saw in the mirror world in his mind, and there was always a sense of loss in his heart that the little cabbage he had worked so hard to raise was taken away by a pig.
No, I'll have to beat this guy up in the next Tarot meeting... She thought bitterly, a gray fog suddenly appeared in front of her eyes, and Klein's deep voice came to her ears:
"The Abraham family has agreed to a transaction."
————
The "Hat Trick" Hotel in Jowood District, in the suite where Dorian used to meet his students.
This middle-aged man with broad shoulders and an old face was standing at the table in a daze, looking at the suitcase opened in front of Forsi.
Inside the box was a, no, half-head that looked like it had been run over by a giant beast. On its face, which had messy brown hair and was stained with blood, the black eyeball that was somewhat familiar to Dorian looked forward, as if before death. Saw extremely horrific things.
"This is... Botis?"
Although he had recognized the owner of the head, Dorian still confirmed to Forsi with a trembling tone.
It's not that he doesn't believe it, he just can't believe it!
This is even more shocking than the head of "Mr. Not only does he possess a "0" level sealed object, but he also gained a high status by betraying the Abraham family, and is often protected by other saints of the Aurora Society!
"Well, that's him," Forsi, who was wearing a long striped skirt and a woolen coat, nodded, showing a bright smile, "and the 'Box of the Old Days' he snatched from the Abraham family, too. "We took it back."
We... Dorian chewed on this word and subconsciously glanced at the mirrors and glass windows in the room, then looked behind Forsi, and then confirmed that she and he were the only ones in the room. There was no figure of the witch in the mirror, and there was no crazy adventurer standing at the door.
But before he could say anything, the young lady with slightly curly brown hair in front of her face and dressed fashionably stretched out her right hand and grabbed it casually.
Then, as if she had caught something from the void, her arm suddenly sank, and then she dragged out a figure wearing a black windbreaker and a half-top hat.
Crazy...crazy adventurer Gehrman Sparrow?
If Dorian was still holding the potion in his hand like last time, he would be so frightened that it would drop to the ground again.
(End of chapter)Chapter 1030: The Death of Klein. Gehrman looked almost exactly the same as the last time they met. His face was indifferent and his eyes were cold. Forsi was pulling him out of the void like a portrait. His expression quickly became vivid, and there were so many Rian's heartbeat almost stopped.
Even after meeting once and having an in-depth conversation about the curse of the Abraham family and Mr. Fool, Dorian could not help but think of the various legends about the crazy adventurer he heard in Pulitzer Harbor.
Of course, he knew that most of them were false rumors, coming from secondary creations of a certain best-selling novel series, but that didn't stop him from reacting subconsciously.
After a moment, Dorian forced himself to calm down, showed a reluctant smile and greeted:
"Good morning, Mr. Sparrow."
The main body was hidden deep in the fog of history, and was pulled out through the "historical pore" with Forsi . Klein, who regained his consciousness in his clone due to the connection with the image, did not respond immediately. Instead, he took out a golden pocket watch from the inner pocket of his windbreaker, pressed the crown, and then said without emotion:
"You only have three minutes. "
He was not embarrassing the Abraham in front of him, but Forsi's ability as a Sequence 5 "traveler" to record that the "ancient scholar" was already very weak, even after Klein transferred his consciousness to this "clone". "Used to reduce consumption, it can only last for three minutes before it is on the verge of exhaustion.
This is the difference between having divinity and not, and cannot be bridged by personal efforts.
Moreover, the external performance of Gehrman Sparrow also relieved some of the cold and crazy thoughts that I usually suppress. This is another form of psychological therapy, and it also allows me to give "squirming hunger" every time. "The feeding methods were a bit harsh, and there were terrifying rumors among the pirates who did not do good things. However, he had a certain number of admirers among those who were slightly more like individuals...
Under Hermann's cold appearance, Ke Ryan's thoughts were a little distracted.
Of course, he had never thought of venting his dark thoughts in other places, such as when he was alone with a certain witch.
But regardless of the personality gap between saints and angels, even if the two have the same sequence, the difference in paths makes it impossible for the "divineer" to defeat the "assassin" in physical combat, even if he has the help of his past self and uses The same goes for "historical pore images".
What made him despair was that the higher the sequence, the more obvious the gap in the underlying rules and path characteristics. After all, just last night, the Archangel of Sequence 1, "Servant of the Mystery" Zarath was thrown into pieces by the Angel Statue. It was kicked out of the mirror world like a rag, and it was impossible to see what it had been like before. Even if it was just a historical image, it could still have consciousness and almost all of its power when its body entered the fog of history.
I can't even defeat Sequence 1, let alone Sequence 3 like me... His "cold" eyes refocused and looked right at Dorian, making the latter tremble inwardly and said quickly:
"As agreed, you killed the 'Secret' Saint Botis, I have taken back the 'Box of the Old Days', and I will exchange it for one of the two '0' level sealed objects passed down in my family.
"In addition, thank you for your help. I have already received it during the last full moon. I received the blessing of Mr. Fool at night and effectively avoided the influence of the curse in my bloodline...
"Please forgive my caution when it comes to spreading the faith of Mr. Fool. I will give priority to those who are older in the family." Big, members who have gone further on the extraordinary road... It is already difficult for them to fight against the curse of the full moon. "
Due to time constraints, Dorian spoke very quickly, but said that he did not hear anything from him on the night of the full moon. Bethel Abraham, the "door" man deep in the blood, still showed an excited expression when he was raving.
This was even more exciting than when he saw half of Botis's head and confirmed the death of his student who betrayed the family.
After all, the betrayal of the "Secret Saint" only involves some family members, and the curse on the blood can be solved with the help of Mr. Fool, which means that their entire family may be able to get rid of lingering in the name of "Abraham" The trouble is far more meaningful than killing a traitor.
Looking at Dorian who was starting to get a little excited again, Klein just nodded slightly and said in a still low but not so cold voice:
"I can understand, but I hope you can make them realize as soon as possible that the Fool who believes in the great 'Mr. is the best choice.'
After that, he quickly moved on to the next topic:
'Which '0' level sealed item are you going to choose in exchange?'
Previously, Klein only knew that the Abraham family owned three items that were equivalent to angels. One of the personal sealed artifacts is the "Box of the Old Days" snatched away by Botis. The other two items are also very likely to be formed by the characteristics of the "Planeswalker", but even Miss "Magician" doesn't know what they are. Not a clue.
Dorian took out a roll of parchment with a yellowish surface from his pocket as if he was well prepared. He originally wanted to read the content on it to Gehrman Sparrow in person, but realized that the entire communication process could only Three minutes later, he simply handed it over to the other party.
Klein took it, unfolded the paper and quickly glanced at the dense Hermes text, then summoned a handful of flames to completely burn the parchment to ashes.
With the help of spirituality, this information that could not be read in three minutes has been deeply imprinted in his mind:
"'Star Staff': Appearance is a black staff inlaid with gems, and the holder holds it When a detailed and absolutely correct scene comes to mind, you can reach your destination directly with the cane; when you outline a specific extraordinary person or ability, you can reproduce the corresponding person or thing; its material is hard enough and can be knocked directly Attacking the target will reveal random mutations or abilities during the attack, which can easily kill unprepared saints...
"...When using it, the holder must keep his head empty, otherwise any random images may appear. Being turned into reality by the 'Star Staff', causing harm to oneself...
"...The sealing method is as follows...
"'Scroll of God': The appearance is an oil painting with a brass frame, and the content depicted on it will change from time to time. . When different characters are presented, the holder can allow them to attack the target; when different locations are presented, the holder can change the area around the target to allow the corresponding scene to appear; when different doors are presented, the holder can The user can use this to exile the target to different places...
"...It may appear in the dark underground or the deep starry sky. At this time, both its holder and the target will be in extreme danger..."... ...If no one appreciates or watches the oil painting, the things presented inside it will come alive and invade the real world, whether it is people, objects, or corresponding dangerous scenes... "
...The sealing method is as follows..."
These two pieces "0 "The role of "level sealed objects only accounts for half of the content on the parchment. The rest is compiled by Dorian. The many accidents that occurred when the Abraham family managed and sealed them. Each paragraph represents a painful lesson. Klein could feel the weight of thousands of years and the spirit of sacrifice contained in it through the parchment.
Amid the scattered flames and ashes, he looked at Dorian, who had a serious expression, and continued:
"I choose to exchange the 'Box of the Old' for the ownership of the 'Star Staff'. How are you going to make the transaction?"
He did not choose to look. The reason for the more powerful "Scroll of God" is naturally that the negative effects of this sealed object are more difficult to withstand, and the sealing method requires multiple people to perform, which is extremely difficult for him, who is almost a "lone wolf", even if he is still Above the gray fog, the "0" level sealed objects that can show the image of gods are also very dangerous.
Hearing Gehrman's choice, Dorian nodded without surprise. He seized the last three minutes and said after careful consideration:
"Those two sealed artifacts are still under the protection and seal of other family branches. Once I get the 'Star Staff', I want to trade it through Mr. Fool."
The last time I prayed to this existence and received a blessing, Duo Lian also learned that he could sacrifice certain things to Mr. Fool, and he would give them to other believers. This way, the two parties could reach a deal without contact and making it difficult to break the promise.
Of course, for Dorian, the relationship between "The Fool" and Gehrman in front of him is naturally closer, and there are greater risks in choosing this trading method, so he cautiously added:
"...but you need to do it first Hand over the 'Box of the Past', and then I will sacrifice the 'Star Rod' to Mr. Fool... I have recited his honorable name and am under his gaze. If I violate it, I will be punished by God. "
What surprised him a little was that this unfair condition was agreed to by Gehrman Sparrow. The latter just nodded with a cold face and glanced at Forsi next to him. His figure looked like this. Faded and disappeared like a phantom.
Only then did Dorian feel a chill on his back, and the cold sweat that quietly crawled up his back soaked his shirt.
Dealing with a saint, or the rumored crazy and cold saint, puts too much pressure on people... He muttered in his heart, looked at his student, and showed a gentle smile again:
"I heard that you have truly Have you become a 'traveller'?"
———
As the effect of "travel" ended, Angel and Klein appeared on Sona Island in the depths of the Wild Sea, in the abandoned village that Angel had visited once.
It was already late January 1351. After completely resolving the matter of the "Saint of Secrets" and exchanging the "Box of the Old Days" for the "Stand of Stars" from the Abraham family, Klein finally decided not to delay any longer and use The method proposed by Angel is to go to the "Land Abandoned by God" to find clues for his promotion to Sequence 2.
But even though he had prepared himself mentally, he was still a little nervous when he came to this abandoned village.
Compared with him, Angel's mood was much more stable. She came to the mill with a basement in a familiar way, looked at the windmill above her head that had stopped rotating after half a year, and got into the basement where the entrance was blown down, confirming The ground used as an altar below was intact, so he returned to the top again and looked at the hesitant Klein.
The latter nodded slowly under the pressure of her gaze, closed his eyes, and said,
"I'm ready."
He was wearing a dark black windbreaker and carrying a lantern, but he didn't bring anything else, because The "Ancient Scholar" has everything he ever had.
After receiving Klein's permission, Angel smiled slightly. She took two steps forward, opened her arms and hugged Klein, feeling his body temperature through the windbreaker, feeling his tense and stiff body, and then, on his face Kissed gently.
"Have a good sleep, my love."
She said in a tone as light as a whisper as her lips left her face.
With her comfort, Klein's nervousness relaxed, his stiff muscles became soft, and the lantern in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.
His heartbeat slowly stopped beating in the biting cold that was confined to his body.
This was Klein's choice of "method of death":
he asked to die in Angel's warm arms.
