Chapter 325: Sharf's Anomaly
After leaving the Chapel of Tranquility with Mobert and the elf Shatas and joining up with Grossel and other "protagonists" from the Travels, Abner took them to his own territory, Berdan, settled them down temporarily, and arranged tasks for all.
During this time, Chatas expressed his desire to meet the "Queen of the Scourge" Gosinham, and Grossell also revealed the idea of finding the Giant's Court.
Only the ascetic Snorman was at peace with the encounter...... In his words, as long as the name of the Lord is reverently recited and the brightness of the Lord is spread, it is the same everywhere.
Although she knew where Gohsinham was, Abner did not fulfill Shatath's wish, and temporarily handed over the Trident to her, asking her to go to the bottom of the sea near the Southern Continent to find the hidden elven gathering place that Dennett had encountered.
July 7 is very close to the opening day of this gathering place, so it is natural to make some preparations in advance.
After being told that this was the key to the "Queen of the Scourge" getting out of trouble, Shatas gladly accepted the mission.
As a giant, Grossel has obvious physical advantages, so he was assigned to Berdan's engineering team by Abner, and gave him some tasks that required "tower cranes" to complete - of course, when no one was in charge at night.
As for Mobet, he was appointed consul of the city of Berdan.
After arranging these "protagonists", Abner set out to refine a batch of "Daniel Hydrosol", and in addition to offering sacrifices to the "Goddess of the Night", he did not forget to give it to the "Mother Earth Goddess" at the same time......
After all, it is rumored that "Daniel Hydrosol" can please the goddess and the mother goddess, and make the rituals involving them more effective.
After doing this, before Abner could rest for a while, Mr. "Fool" sent three more "messages":
First, "Admiral Pale" will need a few days to prepare, and the time to study her secrets will be about next Monday night;
Second, this Friday night, Klein wanted to borrow "Grossell's Travels";
Thirdly, it was the "Hanged Man" who asked for help, and the craftsman he knew had a problem.
For the first two, Abner didn't think much about it and responded directly.
As for the third "help", Abner decided to go to Bernadette first after thinking about it.
After all, the controlled "craftsman" is a descendant of Lao Huang, and it is logical for Bernadette, who is Lao Huang's daughter, to deal with it.
In addition, Abner also wanted to take the opportunity to borrow the "Hermit Card" from Bernadette to take a look.
Sure enough, after Bernadette heard that the "craftsman" was a descendant of Charles, she followed Abner to Byam and appeared in front of the eyes of the "Hanged Man".
This is the scene where Abner introduces Bernadette's identity to Alger.
Why did Mr. Bernadette ...... "Queen Mystery" ...... "Tower" bring her here? Could it be that the "Mystery Queen" has also joined the command of Mr. "Fool"? Became its angel? "Sage" ...... Is it the name of "Voyeur" pathway sequence 2?
"The Hanged Man" Alger suddenly couldn't help but make up his mind after hearing Abner's introduction.
Bernadette gave him a strange look, then turned her head sideways and opened her "peeping eye" to look at the house near the harbor.
After a moment, she nodded and said to Abner beside her, "It's indeed the blood of the Charles...... There are also three cultists hidden by his side, who appear to believe in the 'Primordial Moon'. ”
"'Primordial Moon'?" Abner frowned, after all, the "God of Beauty" in the hands of the "Fallen Mother Goddess" had long been recaptured by Lilith, and most of the mid- and low-level "Primordial Moon" believers in the North and South Continents had either died, or had been imperceptibly influenced by Lilith, and would not make such a move at all.
Unless, these people believe in the "Brown Moon" controlled by the "Mother Tree of Desire......
Strange, I clearly reminded Klein and Alger of the special characteristics of the "werewolf", why was Sharf still targeted by the people of the "Mother Tree of Desire"? Moreover, it is not possible to "trace" the specific "cause and effect".
Because the source of his belief involves the existence of a true God, Abner's ability to "perceive" is greatly limited.
After looking down and thinking for a few seconds, Abner asked, "What are you going to do?" ”
"Naturally, it is to directly clean up those 'Primordial Moon' believers and take him away." Bernadette said in a soft and calm voice.
Unlike Gadelia's caution in dealing with this matter in the original book, Bernadette, as an angel, naturally does not need to worry about the "strong people" that may exist around Charff.
Next, I didn't see how she moved, but after only two seconds, Bernadette's soft voice sounded again: "Alright, come in with me." ”
With that, she and Abner vanished together.
"Using 'teleportation' doesn't mean taking me ......," Alger sneered, ostensibly slamming open the door at breakneck speed, and entering the building near the harbor not much slower.
He swept his gaze and quickly took the situation of the living room into his eyes:
"The Craftsman" Charff recoiled in horror, his whole body leaning against the wall;
On the ground, there were two men and a woman, one of them was making a swimming pose, desperately kicking the "water" on the floor, and the other was digging into the floor with his hands and stuffing the broken sawdust into his mouth......
And in the hands of each of them is holding an "illusory" match.
"Mysterious reappearance - the little match girl", the effect is to make people fall into hallucinations.
Seeing this, Abner's "Pure White Eye" opened, and after a closer look at the three "Primordial Moon" believers, he found that although they were not members of the "Rose School", the teachings they accepted were indeed closer to the concept of the "Mother Tree of Desire", and "desire" preceded "reproduction".
Now that he has figured out their origins, Abner will not be merciful, and will "create" the corresponding characteristics in his own "White Tower", incarnate as a "sophist", and make all the three "primordial moon" believers who have fallen into illusions into "secret puppets".
At the same time, Bernadette also interrogated Scharf, and learned that he was initially controlled by the other party due to drugs, but after being forced to believe in the "primordial moon", he actually cured his stubborn illness and let him regain the feeling of being a man, so he really changed his faith.
"It wasn't on drugs, it was really back to the way I was when I was younger, and after that, I dreamed twice of the moon that looked bloody and seductive.
"I think I must have indeed become a believer in the 'Primordial Moon', so I didn't dare to run away." Sorf said.
But Abner, who heard this, interrupted him and asked seriously, "Is the moon you saw in your dream bloody and tempting?" Are you sure? ”
Although the "craftsman" Sharf was puzzled when he asked, since his life was in the hands of a few people in front of him, he naturally nodded honestly and said, "Yes, I'm sure!" ”
In this way, Sharf believes in the real "primordial moon", "fallen mother goddess"!
But what's going on? Why would the followers of the "Mother Tree of Desire" lead a "craftsman" to believe in the "Fallen Mother Goddess"?
And in the memories of those three people, there is no relevant content at all......
Abner frowned, vaguely aware of a possible conspiracy, but he did not have "insight" into specific information.
Generally speaking, when encountering this kind of problem that is obviously different from the original work, it is either the butterfly effect caused by the "Calamity Seal", or the pot of the "God of Luck"!
Considering that Sharf is a descendant of Lao Huang, the former's may be even greater!
