Abner only felt that his body and mind were gradually settled and peaceful, and he entered a state of half-dreaming and half-wake, and his consciousness became chaotic.

Once again, he walked through clumps of night herbs and sleeping flowers in the dark, just like the night he had returned from the first floor of the "Dream Labyrinth Tower", until he bumped into a body that smelled of "Daniel Hydrosol".

I don't know how long it has been, and I don't know what I've been through, but when Abner comes to his senses again, he finds himself home, lying in his bed, as if his previous visit to Harvest Church was just a dream.

But then he sensed something, and when he looked down, he saw a dark star-shaped gemstone accessory lying quietly in the middle of his chest. No, it's more like "inlay" in it, and it also has a faint connection with the red fine lines left by the "blessing of the god of beauty" on the forehead.

Seeing this, Abner showed a thoughtful look, and then opened the "Pure White Eye" and "analyzed" it. "Although it is not possible to fully understand its 'principle' and 'function', it is generally confirmed that it is related to the authority of 'darkness' and 'secret'

"But how to use it can't be 'parsed'

This is most likely due to 'secrecy'!

"So... I just saw the goddess again in a dream

"No, it should be said that the goddess has led me to a special dream again

"Last time it was to give me a reward.... And for what this time

"And, why did he send me straight home... Well, look at the time, it's already early in the morning, and it's not far from the time I made an appointment with Edwina

"It was Lilith who had something to do, so the goddess, who was an ally of the robes, came to receive me

"Also, when Will suggested that I come to Harvest Church, he had a rather 'weird' smile.... What is this again?"

Groping for the black gem on his chest, Abner's expression became even more puzzled, and after a long while, he sighed and thought to himself, "Why do you love to be a riddler when it comes to the authority of 'fate'?"

"Compared to Lilith, the goddess's actions are even more unpredictable!

"Of course, Lilith's favor and affection for me is probably more than a façade..... Maybe she wants to increase humanity through this, or maybe she has some deeper plan

"After all, how could an ancient god who had survived from the Second Age to the present day really be confined to his feelings

"But whether this friendship is true or not, since I have received the benefit, I will have to repay it sooner or later

Inside the basement of the Harvest Chapel.

Lilith, the silver-haired and silver-eyed "God of Beauty" wearing the red dress that Abner had prepared when he came to the Harvest Church last night, looked at the "darkness" in the prayer hall that gradually receded, and turned her head a little "unpleasantly".

At the same time, a voice like a night's lullaby suddenly sounded:

"He has attained divinity, communicating with there, even with the robe

"Before he was promoted to angel, your body from him could not be in close contact with him too much

"It's going to upset the balance.

"Either him or you

"You should remember the lesson from Lamia's experiment."

Lilith listened quietly and was silent for a while before asking, "What about you?"

"I've been far less 'polluted' than you...."After more than ten seconds, the voice that made people feel at peace reappeared, "Moreover, I have long said that using feelings to create 'bonds' has gradually made him have a different self from the robe in his life, and finally made up his mind to restrain his sleeves."

"There are many specific ways to achieve this, and it doesn't necessarily require too much close contact, and it's sometimes better to maintain a proper sense of mystery and distance.

"You have never been a real human being, even if you have Lamia's experience, it is only a 'simulation', and it will only arouse his desire through temptation, which has a certain effect, but it does not make him feel too deeply

"At this point, 'knowledge' and even his friends in life this time are better than you have to do!"

Lilith pondered for a moment, then spoke again, "What am I missing?"

"Sincerity as a human being!" As the phrase came, the "darkness" dissipated completely, and the sunlight shone into the church through the glass windows.

In the Godforsaken Lands, lightning pierced the sky, illuminating the gray buildings in front of them.

Colin the "Demon Hunter" with twin swords. The Iliad pointed to the opposite side and said:

"That's Afternoon Town."

His unkempt gray hair swayed in the wind that blew through the wilderness.

So fast.... Derrick, who was carrying the "Hurricane Axe", sighed in surprise.

He was immediately relieved, thinking that this was reasonable, because the Giant Court itself was in the area near Silver City, and Afternoon Town was one of the nodes connecting the two sides.

With the help of the lightning that illuminated the night, he could see clearly what the town looked like in the afternoon, it was built at the foot of the mountain, and was naturally divided into upper, middle and lower levels, and it was said that it was a town, but in fact it was no smaller than most of the ruins found in Silver City.

On the other side of town, a strange mountain peak, toppled and broken into pieces, quietly scattered into a large area, full of ruins of buildings that could not be seen in their original style.

The only thing that remains in some form is a half-collapsed tower, which stands on the largest part of the mountain's ruins and is connected to the staircase that leads to the middle of the town, making it a good ready-made stronghold.

"That's the tower where little Jack got the Gear Book, it's a good place to stay, no wonder they rested there in the first place

"However, even if you don't count the fallen floating city, this town is completely different from what the textbook describes.... Derick recalls what he learned in history class.

According to the records of Silver City, the afternoon town is the gate separating reality and mythology, mixed with humans and giants, there is night, there is also day, but all the day is in the "afternoon" state, no matter the fog, rainstorm, or ice and snow attack, can not hide the more fierce sun, but at this time, it is gloomy, gray, even if it is illuminated by lightning, it lacks a sense of light, lifeless.

Holding the handle of the axe tightly, his eyes "containing" two miniature suns, Derick walked on the side of the exploration team, and followed the "chief" Colin step into Afternoon Town.

It had been cleaned up once during the initial exploration, and the streets were littered with rotting flesh and traces of dried pus, and there was silence all around, without a sound.

"Be careful, there are a lot of strange monsters hiding in the darkness as a mythical gate." Colin, who had an old scar on his face, the Iliad did not take it lightly, and pulled out one of the twin swords he was carrying with his backhand, and the sword body was silver and restrained.

This is the gate of mythology...... I remember that Mr. "Tower" inadvertently mentioned that all places that have the meaning of "door" should not be ignored, because there is probably some deep secret or danger hidden there

Combined with the reminder given by Mr. "Tower" through Mr. "Fool" before our departure

The strange and dangerous town he talked about was the danger lurking here

As soon as he thought of this, Darek suddenly saw an altar in a dwelling with three names on it:

"Ulorius;

"Medici;

"Saslier."

UloriusIsn't this the name of the "Angel of Destiny" "Mr. Fool" mentioned that Medici is also a king of angels, and Sasriel is another Darik Suddenly excited and frightened, he hurriedly turned around and wanted to beckon his companions to watch together.

But as far as he could see, the entrance to the house was empty and dark, and Heim and Joshua, who should have been following behind, were gone! I entered the other side of the "gate", and entered another eerie and terrifying town

Byam, the basement of the Aromatic Manor.

Dressed in a rather simple white shirt and an equally simple pair of brown trousers, Edwina appeared on the "Teleportation Altar" with the light of a circular fire.

She smiled at Abner, who had been waiting for him for a long time, her pale blue eyes full of excitement and anticipation.

"Are you ready?" Abner asked with a smile.

"Ready

"The results of the prophecy are not bad." Adevina is sure to be authentic.

"Then let's go at once!"

After saying that, Abner took off his clothes generously, and then used the "secret technique" composed of the "druid" ability to transform into a "giant bear".

This secret technique is inspired by the "tears of Lilith" in the past.

The ruins are deep underground, so if you don't want to attract the attention of the authorities, it is more convenient to use the "Giant Bear" form to "sneak underground".

Seeing this, Edwina, who had previously communicated with Abner about this secret technique of "turning into a bear", pursed her lips and reached out to unbutton her neckline

Moments later, as the ground softened into a "swamp", the two giant bears sank as quickly as if they had fallen into the sea.
