Chapter 48: Frank's Special
"It seems to be a little brighter than it was before......
Looking at the floating city in the sky that seemed to be the second round of the sun, Crane, who didn't know what had happened, had many speculations flashing in his heart, and quickly connected the little "sun" to the exploration of the afternoon town and the inexplicable appearance of Mr. "Tower" in the "God's Forsaken Land".
"The night here is dangerous, and if you don't sleep, the creatures will disappear and disappear completely.
"The 'Godforsaken Lands', including the darkness of Silver City, are also dangerous, and if humans do not have the light to dispel the darkness, they may disappear and disappear completely.
"The palace group here is suspected to be a projection of the Giant King's Court, and the afternoon town is the gate separating reality and mythology, and it is the node between the Silver City area and the Giant's Court......
"Coupled with the ruins of the floating city that fell outside the town in the afternoon, and the changes in the floating city in this dream......
"With so many 'coincidences' of resemblance, maybe the changes in the floating city here are really related to Mr. Tower's actions!"
Crane shook his head, turning his attention back to where his dream had begun—a staircase with floor-to-ceiling windows.
The light of dusk shines through the glass of various colors along with the sun-like light of the "floating city", making the black staircase that spirals down and is covered with reliefs extremely beautiful.
Crane instinctively looked to the side, and sure enough, he saw the "mysterious queen" standing on the stairs leading to the upper floor.
The long, chestnut-haired lady no longer wore the skirt with the hem open, and instead wore a white shirt with lace and ribbon flowers, a simple dark blue jacket, and beige trousers and black leather boots, but Klein believed that the pants and leather boots of the "mysterious queen" might have a row of wardrobes or even a room.
Of course, if Abner were here, he would have complained about why I always cared about other women's feet and boots, and ...... Maybe Bernadette has a factory that makes shoes for her.
After laughing at himself, Klein retracted his gaze and preemptively asked, "What else is going on?" ”
The "Mysterious Queen" rubbed the escalator with her right hand and slowly descended the road:
"You'll want to warn Cordelia to be careful with Frank Lee.
"There may be something unusual about his origins."
Crane frowned when he heard this, but immediately relented, although he and Frank had only known each other for a few days, they didn't notice that the other party had any other problems except for the strange brain circuit:
"I don't understand what you mean."
"His origin may be peculiar...... Bernadette re-emphasized, "When Cordelia and Jane obtained the 'Grim Reaper' card, they did not dare to use the courier to give me the blasphemous card, lest they attract a powerful necromancer in the spirit world, so they sent him to find me......
"It's nothing, after all, in reality, there is not much danger in blocking the cards with spirituality.
"But not only did he attract several horrible monsters, but it was only after he handed me the cards that the monsters began to attack me.
"Do you understand what that means?"
"Those monsters are afraid of him, so they don't dare to use the cards when they are in his hand?" Klein keenly interpreted the meaning of "mystery queen".
Bernadette nodded:
"Under normal circumstances, he may not be in any danger, but the power of the 'Mother Earth Goddess' remains in this sea area, and it is likely that the special 'detonation' hidden in his body will be detonated......
"Coupled with the fact that the source of the whisper here is 'the true creator,' the seal that Gadelia gave to Heath Doyle won't do much at all...... These are sources of danger. ”
I know everything, but why do you have to tell me? What does this have to do with me? Klein was puzzled, and considering his own Gelman's character, he asked directly: "Why do you have to tell me?" ”
"Aren't you ......?" Bernadette paused for a moment, then realized something, shook her head, and said, "It's nothing, it's just that I think you're more suitable." ”
However, she muttered in her heart the unreliability of what Jane said.
What are we not? Not a fellow member of the Tarot Society? It seems that this "hermit" lady is really a little dishonest, and she really dares to reveal the matter of Mr. "Fool".
It seems that it will have to be beaten, after all, even the original Mr. "Tower" only revealed the honorific name of "Fool" to the two young ladies "Judgment" and "Magician" after obtaining my permission.
In addition, is Frank's special body related to Mother Earth God? I don't know if Mr. "Tower" knows about this, after all, his relationship with Mother Earth God is not ordinary.
Thinking of this, Klein said tentatively based on the principle of equivalent exchange of information proposed last time:
"Do you know what the opening spell for that 'Black Emperor' card is?"
The "Mystery Queen" was silent for a few seconds and shook her head.
"Bernadette." Klein said.
The entire corridor was so quiet that there didn't seem to be even a sound of breathing, and the "mysterious queen" Bernadette's lips moved and closed again.
And Klein also took the opportunity to ask, "What is so special about Frank?" Or rather, from whom? ”
Hearing this, Bernadette's blue eyes briefly lost focus and regained their depth, and after thinking for a moment, she replied:
"I don't know what it is, I can only see it...... It was the imprint of a great being. ”
……
Afternoon Town.
After Darik reappeared and returned to reality, Colin "The Demon Hunter" only briefly interrogated him before agreeing to his claim.
After all, Colin knew very well in his heart that there was a great being behind this child who was sheltering him.
But soon, they saw the candles in the houses on both sides of the street lit up one after another, and the dead and silent city-state Huo Ran came to life, and Darick and the others felt like they had fallen into a nightmare, and their spirits were tense.
Colin looked at it a few times and said solemnly:
"We were still in the town in the afternoon of reality.
"But the town has invaded here on the strange afternoon that Derrick just mentioned.
"Let's go and join the rest of the squad right now!"
……
Inside the central tower of the "Morning Star City".
In front of the altar, Abner, who had already roughly understood the cause and effect, opened his eyes, and then stretched out his palm and picked up the "Mechanical Sacred Codex" placed in the depression.
But strangely, there was still a "gear book" lying in the groove that was exactly the same as the one in Abner's hand.
This is a fake that he has just created with his "imitation" ability, but because of the power borrowed from the "Pure White Eye", in this nightmare floating city, the imitation can not only exist for a long time, but also reproduce most of the functions of the "Mechanical Sacred Codex...... For example, to supply energy to the "Morning Star City".
And this true "Mechanical Sacred Book" Abner is to be brought back and placed on the floating city of Nath...... In fact, this is also one of the keys to the final "coincidence" of the two and enter reality.
After doing this, Abner slowly fell back to the ground, he looked at Olmos and Eleanor, who were anxiously waiting here, and Annick, who hurried over after calming the people, and said with a smile:
"My mission has been accomplished, and Morningstar City will not be short of energy for a long time to come."
Speaking of this, his attitude suddenly became serious again, and he glanced at the three of them with his "pure white eyes", and said solemnly: "Now, I want to convey the oracle." ”
The three "alchemists" first expressed their gratitude to Abner, but after hearing each other's words of "conveying the oracle", they all felt a little trance.
Because when the eyes of the gods in front of them fell on them, they really felt the same sense of oppression as the emperor had at the beginning.
Among them, Annick's emotions were the most excited, because he was a student of the "Machine Emperor", and he was very familiar with the teacher's breath!
At this time, if it weren't for the fact that his eyes had already been mechanically modified, he would definitely shed tears.
Eleanor and Olmos were also taught by the "Emperor of the Machines" when they were young, and although they were not as profound as Annick, they no longer had doubts in their hearts.
What they don't know is that it was Abner who received the information left by the "Machine Codex" and had a little resonance with the "Unknown Land" that belonged to the "Machine Emperor" brand, which could briefly simulate the breath of Evans the Great.
Of course, as his "Prophet" digestion progress grows, he will soon be able to actually get in touch with Evans's imprint spots and truly reclaim that memory. After all, the time of the other party's death was only more than two hundred years ago, and his location in the "unknown land" was not very far away.
"This is the true Divine Envoy!" The three of them sent out the same signal, and then saluted in unison, awaiting Abner's edict with anticipation.
- There is no etiquette such as kneeling in "Morning Star City", and the highest etiquette is the same action as the "military salute", which is the "supreme ceremony" that can only be made when paying tribute to the emperor.
Seeing this, Abner, who was too lazy to complain, coughed, cleared his throat, and began to pretend to make up an oracle:
"The great 'White Eye, Lord of Fate, Emperor of Knowledge and Machine' is about to return,"
"When he returns, the faithful of Morning Star City shall recite His name......
Since he has decided to take the matter of changing the fate of "Morning Star City" on himself, he can't do good deeds without leaving a name, and the benefits of the fishing still have to be reaped - such as accumulating believers and anchors for himself.
"Praise the great 'White Eye, Lord of Fate, Emperor of Knowledge and Machine,' and obey your commands." The three "alchemists" bowed their heads respectfully in response.
"The great 'White Eye, Lord of Fate, Emperor of Knowledge and Machine' is about to return,"
"When it returns, it will lead Morningstar out of the darkness and into the world of light......
"And the darkness before the light is the most terrible, so be careful to hide yourselves from calamity."
This sentence of Abner almost copied the prophecy of the "Machine Emperor", but reminded at the end, after all, after he went back, he had to perfect the secret technique that he had relayed to develop in order to resurrect "Alvin", and then he had to accumulate relevant wishes and prepare for "miracles", which added up to half a year, during which the people of Silver City could always explore here, and once discovered, it would attract the attention of the true creator, and the consequences would be unpredictable.
"Praise the great 'Pure White Eye, Lord of Fate, Emperor of Knowledge and Machine', and obey the command!" The three bowed down again.
Eleanor, who only looked like a little girl, asked curiously after seeing that the Divine Envoy did not seem to have any more oracles, "The Divine Envoy ...... What does the world of light look like? ”
Good question! Abner was in good spirits, took out a projector from his card, and replied with a smile:
"There's information on the Light World here...... You should be able to read and understand, after all, the people there speak 'Yayan'. ”
After saying that, when he found a curtain and prepared to show it, he casually asked, as if unintentionally:
"How many high-grade seals are there in 'Morning Star City'?"
