Chapter 637: Monday

After feeling emotional, Abner decided to go according to the original plan, no longer expecting the gods to show mercy, after all, even Lilith, who valued him the most, expressed the meaning of "refusal", and the other gods would not care much even if they saw through George III's tricks.

And his original plan was very simple, that is, he had been living in the East Side recently, waiting for the "Witch of Despair" to appear, and then intervening to stop her from spreading the "plague" in the occult field.

He can't stop the development of the times, but there is a way to reduce the impact of man-made disasters!

Why do you want to live in the Eastern District all the time? That's because under the change of various "butterfly" effects, he can no longer guarantee that Panatia will definitely shoot on December 28 as in the original book...... It's likely to happen a few days in advance, or a few days later.

He had no choice but to wait and see.

After thinking about it again, Abner asked Lilith, "I want to ask you for a favor......

"What's the busy?" Lilith asked with a smile.

"I'd like to ask you to prepare a fake identity for me...... I want to try my hand at playing the role of 'Mystic Mentor' during the time I am dormant in the East End. Abner didn't mention the specific requirements for his identity, but only said his needs, and he believed that with the power of the Mother Earth God Church in Rune, it should not be very difficult.

After all, in the original book, even a covert organization like "Elemental Dawn" can help Klein get a fake identity.

Lilith glanced at him with a smirk, shook her head, and said, "You just ask for 'knowledge'...... 'learn', 'imitate', and then create fakes, which is his forte. ”

I use this reason to go to the "God of Knowledge and Wisdom" and pray for divine punishment. This is the worst time he has been hacked, right?

Abnaton was speechless, but he also understood that it was really inappropriate for him to ask Lilith directly for this matter, so he was teased by the other party......

It's all because her tone, expression, and posture are too casual, making me forget that she is essentially a god......

After arguing with himself in his heart, Abner listened to Lilith again, "Just kidding...... I'll let Cross Fia get this done through the 'Psychological Alchemy Society'...... Even if you use that identity to get into trouble, there will be a 'psychological alchemy society' to blame. ”

This Lilith is too rich in humanity, right? It feels like a fake...... After hearing the other party's words, Abner's heart once again let out such an exclamation.

After expressing his sincere gratitude to Lilith, Abner said goodbye to her and left the basement down the stairs.

As soon as he returned to the prayer hall, he saw a classic scene from the original book:

The bearded detective Sherlock Moriarty and the young man of the Bloods, Emlyn White, exchanged suitcases and banknotes like gangster deals, and the latter quickly retreated to Father Utrafsky after the transaction was completed to check the authenticity of the banknotes.

Seeing this scene, the corners of Abner's mouth twitched, and he immediately recalled the scene when he and Karen traded the "Elder Tree Heart......

In contrast, he actually felt that he and Karen were behaving much more normally at that time.

At this time, Klein, who had confirmed the condition of the two materials, also saw Abner coming up from the staircase.

"Mr. 'Tower'......"

Through the previous "Burrow", Klein has determined that the person with this unfamiliar face is Mr. "Tower", who has just killed Mr. "Tower" of the "Apostle of Desire"! Mr. "Tower" with demigod means!

- This last point was learned through the description of the "Machine Heart" and the inquiry into the soul of the "Apostle of Desire".

But he didn't intend to let his current detective identity have too much contact with Mr. "Tower", so as not to reveal the flaws, so he snapped his fingers according to the original plan, let the specially separated matches in his coat pocket ignite, and let the suddenly rising red flame wrap itself.

By the time the flames had receded, he was gone.

Abner, who had roughly guessed Klein's thoughts, pursed his lips covertly, but soon the corners of his mouth hooked up again.

Because just now he suddenly got a "passive" prophecy, or premonition:

It won't be too far from the day when he will expose the other party's "vest"!

And the opportunity, it turned out to be Edwina?!

Abner pinched his chin and thought:

The simple result was that Adevina would soon find the so-called "Key to the King of the North" from the descendants of the Dragonzel family, inviting me into Grossell's Travels in a safe way.

Well...... For the sake of insurance, I will most likely report to Mr. "Fool...... And if Klein had been "Gelman" at that time, he might have actually come over to participate......

Of course, I might also take the initiative to invite the "world".

So, the opportunity to pick up the vest is actually the "Honesty Hall"?

Hiss...... Fortunately, I thought in advance that it would be better to develop a "secret technique" to close the idea in advance...... Otherwise, I'm afraid it's not a two-way "drop off the horse"?

……

On Monday morning, in front of the house at 30 Black Palm Street in the Eastern End, a well-mannered middle-aged man in shabby clothes shook hands with the landlord, then took out a £1 bill from his shriveled wallet and handed it to the other party.

It's a month's rent.

"Mr. Evans, I heard that you applied for a job as a teacher at a free school? You are truly a gentleman of good character. The landlord habitually complimented, but the rent would not be allowed at all.

The free school is a night school established by the three major churches or some charitable organizations, classes are held from 8 to 10 o'clock in the evening, there is no charge at all, and even writing instruments and a certain amount of paper will be provided for free.

But because of the meager salary, there has been a shortage of teachers.

Freya and her sister Daisy had been attending classes there, and even though Edith had introduced them to a better school, she didn't accept his kindness.

"You've won a prize...... If you could, you could actually call me Mr. 'Professor', which I prefer. The middle-aged man said with a smile.

"Okay, Mr. 'Professor'." Although the landlord gave him a strange look, he did what he wanted, and he didn't want money anyway.

After the landlord left, Abner, who had closed the door, put his hand on his forehead and couldn't help complaining in his heart:

"Cross Fia...... No, maybe it's Lilith, what the hell is the character that I customized?

"A down-and-out musician who dreams of becoming a 'professor'? After Beckland's repeated hits, he had to teach at the church's free school on the edge of the East End?

"Inexplicably paranoid about the title of 'professor'?

"Why did you give me such an identity?"

While doubts arose in his mind, Abner recalled what Lilith had said when she handed her identification:

"The setting of this identity comes from a story that Rhine told me at the beginning...... In the story, the 'Professor' is favored by the silver moon. ”

……

The capital of the Rorsted Islands, the city of Byamu, the city of generosity.

Stepping off the Blue Avenger, Alger changed into a robe embroidered with a storm pattern and went straight to the Church of the Waves.

As soon as he entered the Grand Prayer Hall, he immediately performed the Church of the Storm service to the bishop and respectfully said, "The storm is with you!" ”

"The storm is with you!" The bishop responded to him in the same posture.

Before Alger could speak, the bishop took out a telegram and said solemnly:

"You've come just in time, there's one thing you need to know......

"Duke Negan was assassinated, and the Council of Cardinals brought to the attention of all the substitutes and priests to the events involving the Tarot ritual, the organizations that believed in the 'Fools', and the intelligence of the Rogue 'Black Emperor', 'Iron Man', 'Doctor Strange', and others.

"In addition, we should also collect as much information as possible about the Esoteric Order."

"Tarot ritual? Esoteric Order? Alger's heart shook, but on the surface he expressed his surprise.

He didn't quite understand why Duke Negan's death would have something to do with Tarot and Mr. "Fool".

And what is the matter with the secret monastic society?

The bishop solemnly bowed:

"The assassin of Duke Negan was a Sequence 5 demon and Baron Larry, but the latter disappeared without mentioning, the former was killed by a Sage on the way to escape, and he also left a 'tower' card...... This is the same as the fate of 'Lieutenant General Hurricane' Ziringers, who failed to assassinate the Duke, although there were no tarot cards left that time. ”

"In addition, Larry should have received funding from Intis, and in the previous incident of the 'Black Emperor' dealing with the Aurora Society, there were also suspected esoteric people involved......

"Therefore, the Council of Cardinals judged that the organization that believed in the 'Fool' might be related to the Esoteric Society!"

"Tower" intercepted and killed the "Apostle of Desire"? He became a demigod? It turned out that he took a three-week leave to complete the promotion ceremony......

Well, if it's him, then it's likely that he's been commissioned by the "World" or Mr. "Fool" or some other person......

Yes, Mr. "Fool" is probably looking at the hidden truth behind the assassination, and he is looking at the real murderer!

Will it be an esoteric order? I remember that Mr. "Fool" took this organization very seriously and issued a mission for its intelligence......

Hehe, the Council of Cardinals may have guessed correctly, Mr. "Fool" should indeed have something to do with the Esoteric Society...... But no, it won't be too close, and it may even be an enemy.

Alger instantly thought of many things, he looked down at the telegram, and found that the church had set up an investigation team composed of substitute punishers, mechanical hearts, and night watchmen for the assassination of Duke Negan, and each member of the team was the elite of their respective organizations.

Glancing over names such as Stewart, Daly, and Iconse, Alger was hesitant to apply for a moment in order to grasp the progress of the investigation......

But in the end, he decided to follow the original plan and develop in a low-key manner.

……

In the townhouse at 15 Minsk Street in Beckland, Crane finally gathered the materials for the "Faceling" after receiving the "Characteristics of the Shadow of Human Skin" from Sharon, and successfully promoted to Sequence 6.

Just as he was experimenting with his new abilities, changing into a female face, and pinching a "pair of A's" on his chest, there was a sudden knock on the door.

This frightened him almost to launch a "fire jump", but fortunately he calmed down in time, changed back to Sherlock's beard, and opened the door.

Outside the room stood an old man dressed as a butler, who had arrived to invite Sherlock to meet a big man.

The big man is naturally Prince Edsak, and he brought in Klein to commission him to investigate Talim's whereabouts.

"Talim? According to Mr. Tower, he may have been 'reading a night in his red sleeves'...... That's probably what it means, and I don't know if Russell copied this sentence......"

……

On the Golden Dream, Talim, who had inexplicably become a "pirate", was holding a pen and paper and writing words in ancient Hermetic in a depressed manner.

Beside him, Daniz was eating grilled fish while pointing out Talim's mistakes.

It is true that the "red" sleeves add "fragrance......
