Standing in front of the gloomy palace, Abner's "pure white eyes" reflect not its exquisite design and ornate decoration, but the constantly wriggling tentacles that are comforted by the power of "order"!

That is, the palace itself is part of Zarathu? No, more accurately, it was the cage that its power was "distorted" to form and trap itself.

Well, although Russell was most likely still the "Emperor of Knowledge" when he built the "Dream Labyrinth Tower", he was in charge of the "Prince of Killing Order" trait, and even the uniqueness of the "Black Emperor" was not small...... It is not difficult to complete such a seal.

While thinking in his heart, Abner walked around the palace several times, "analyzing" and "analyzing" every detail.

Soon, something new was made.

Back in front of the main gate of the palace, he couldn't help but think:

According to the observation and "backtracking", the original seal should have also used the power projected into this fantasy world by the "Chaos Sea...... This means that Russell's split soul is likely to be trapped in this palace as well!

But now because of the arrival of the "Primordial Moon", some of the polluting power on Russell's body should also be temporarily borrowed, so the "Chaos Sea" has also followed......

In addition, I also noticed some familiar "routines...... Oh, I remember that Russell created a "silver medal" that could communicate with the "Source Castle", but he was already an extraordinary person in the 'Knowledge' path at that time, so in addition to seeing an endless gray mist, he couldn't further borrow the power of the "Source Castle......

But if he used the ritual of that "silver medal" to make a occult connection with Zarathu, maybe it would be possible!

Is it another sealing structure that balances the forces of the "Chaos Sea", "Source Castle", and "Mother Goddess" with each other?

From Baron Conva's regaining his sanity, to the escape of the "Bound God" from the "Mother Tree of Desire", plus the self-sealing of Russell in front of him...... It's all this idea!

And behind them are all related to the traverser brought by the "Pure White Eye...... Is it part of some experiment that has been going on for a long time?

This experiment seems to have a lot to do with the "secret technique" of "manipulating the bone dragon", which is constantly improving......

Maybe talk to "Russell"?

Thinking of this, Abner, who confirmed that the seal was still strong and that there was not much danger as long as the "core" was not damaged, finally pushed open the gate of the palace.

Of course, this is also Abner's trust in Lilith, trusting her not to let herself die in vain.

Finally, one thing that Lilith whispered in his ear before also made him feel a lot of confidence.

In the ancient hall above the gray fog, Klein, who was watching the "live broadcast", frowned, because the moment Mr. "Tower" entered the palace, the "signal" was suddenly disturbed, making it difficult for him to see and hear the content of the "live broadcast" clearly.

……

After entering the palace, it was dark, and even Abner, who had the ability of "night vision", could not see it really, only vaguely saw a huge wriggling mass in the deepest part.

In the middle of the palace there was a single blink of blue light, but it could only illuminate a radius of four or five paces.

Abner hesitated, but approached on guard, and soon realized that the blue glow was actually emitted by the "Silent Winter" oil lamp that had been sucked into it as a "little chalice".

Behind the oil lamp sat a young man with long chestnut curly hair, and two handfuls of beautifully groomed mustaches on his lips.

This is exactly what Russell was like when he was a young man.

Sensing Abner's approach, the young Russell looked over with confused blue eyes, and said in a tone that seemed dull:

"You...... Here it comes?

"You're early, though!"

This Russell doesn't seem to be a little sober...... Was there something wrong with the sealed mind, or was he already in a state of "dreaming" in the "Dream Labyrinth Tower"?

In a flash of thought, Abner was not in a hurry to destroy the "Holy Grail", after all, he had not received Lilith's "signal", and said in a cliché: "You know me? Know who I am? ”

"I don't have an exhaustive memory...... Don't know who you are...... But I know you're coming...... I said when I met on the sixth floor......"

The logic is clear...... But the sixth layer? Is it the same Russell who explores the ruins of "Solomon"? It was indeed part of his soul, but it looked like it was now fused with the "Russell Phantoms".

Maybe it's because Russell's personality hasn't been distorted, so he's put it in the lower classes...... But now that they're all together, it's only going to make him more confused, right?

After a few thoughts in his mind, Abner quietly asked again, "Why did you say I came early?" ”

"There are many reasons...... Rosell's mood seemed to fluctuate a little, and he said to himself:

"Because you came early, I can't release the historical projection of Zarathu now, and I can't use the Book of Stealing to steal the miracle of His 'resurrection' and achieve a relatively perfect resurrection......

"Because you came early, and you're still on the fifth level of authority, I can't let you lower my vigilance through the arrangement on the second level......

"Because you came early, my prophecy of your 'janitor' female companion was replaced by a 'mystical master', so that this oil lamp took her rightful place. And I've lost a bargaining chip to blackmail you into making a wish.

"If you don't make a wish, then my second way of resurrection, which is to distort the 'wish' through the ontological body, will not be able to accomplish the purpose of the resurrection......

"Because you came early, it is useless for me to separate some of the Scourge Queen's soul from the Book of Scourge beforehand, because you will not agree to my request to trade with you with his whereabouts......

"Because you came early, my arrangement on a descendant has lost its meaning......"

After hearing his words, Abner couldn't help but furrow deeply, because such an unscrupulous Russell was completely different from what he had seen in his previous life, and what he had learned after crossing over!

Threaten fellows, count descendants...... No wonder the goddess is reluctant to resurrect Russell like this, after all, even if he is resurrected, there is no point in it...... He is not him!

However, in what he revealed, I had already guessed about the historical projection of Zarathu......

The so-called "janitor" female companion should refer to Jane...... If it weren't for the teacher of the "Lieutenant General of the Iceberg" who suddenly gave a "prophecy", Edwina would definitely not have gone to the descendants of the Dragonzel family to find a safe way to enter "Grossell's Travels".

And Jane, as a descendant of a traverser, also got many items from the Archon Miranda, the Archon of Death, and was easily designed by Russell to enter the "Dream Labyrinth Tower", right?

Wrong...... If she still has the "Grim Reaper" card, she should have already been calculated! Who made the "arrangement"? can destroy this occult connection...... Go back and ask Jane who gave the card to the "Mystery Queen".

The arrangement of the so-called second layer in the back is not difficult to guess, and if I want to lower my vigilance, it is likely that I will arrange a scene with Russell again, and deepen the friendship through tasks such as fighting enemies together......

But what about the Scourge Queen? Why would I be willing to 'make a wish' to resurrect an ancient god because of his descent?

And in the end, who is he referring to by the arrangement of his descendants?

Puzzled, Abner opened his mouth again and asked, "What does the 'Queen of the Scourge' have to do with me in the future?" ”

"I don't know...... I just knew it would be useful. Young Russell looked at Abner with vacant eyes.

"Then let me change the question, what are the ways of your resurrection? What exactly? Well, let's start with the kind you laid out from your descendants. Abner thought for a moment and asked a new question.

"I asked my loyal knight Edvina to manipulate the Book of Astrological Signs, and before ascending to the gods, I divided the traits of 'lawyer' and 'astronomer' with my brand.

"According to my arrangement for the 'Man in Black', at the time I predicted, two of my descendants who had read the Book of Astrology would receive each of these two traits.

"The 'Astronomer' will be an adult male, and if someone makes a wish, I can twist and steal that wish and bring my soul back to life as this man...... Then steal my tainted fate through the captured 'Amon' clone and transfer it to a sacrifice as a 'sacrifice'.

"Because this option is very risky...... It is likely that the pollution from that one will not leave me...... So there's an alternative......

"Another descendant who has been given my 'lawyer' trait will be a young woman who is destined to meet you...... At the same time, it will amplify the goodwill of you......

"You're going to get to the first layer when she's pregnant...... I will take the opportunity to 'resurrect' her child, who was destined to be born as a 'lawyer'.

"And if you become your child, you can get your shelter, and you don't have to worry about the residual 'pollution'......

"But you're early......"
