Chapter 402: Let's Talk

740

Amun, the "blasphemer" and "Angel of Time", is most notably marked by a monocle.

All people or animals parasitized by Amon will have a monocle on their right eye, or the shape of a circle, and considering that the other party is the king of angels who carries uniqueness, Klein boldly guesses that the monocle is the uniqueness of the "thief" path.

The name "Amun" is something that the ancient sun god brought out of the mythology of the old days, like Adam, so there won't be many duplicate names. And the clones of the Amon family, which are full of "Angels of Time", have long disappeared from history.

For this level of existence, the effect of calling them by their name and calling them by their name is not much worse, it just depends on whether or not to respond.

So far, Amon has only responded once when he was in Beckland, and then never again. Judging from this situation, I'm afraid that Klein will not change if he takes out his monocle and puts it on.

Klein felt that in the past few hundred years, Amon had not been called by his first name more than an hour now, but the other party didn't seem to be ready to show up, it was already at the Rune-Fursack border, and if Amon didn't come, he would have to increase the excitement.

Thinking of this, Crane jerked his feet and stopped next to the boundary monument.

The thunder above his head suddenly became louder, mixed with countless whispers that kept drilling into his ears and brain, as if there were two huge monsters fighting in the sky directly above.

Those filthy words directly polluted and attacked his soul, even if he closed his hearing and blocked his ears, it would not help. Taking advantage of the fact that there was still thunder interference, Crane simply gritted his teeth, walked four steps backwards, silently recited the incantation in his heart, and rushed to the Source Castle!

The flickering crimson light made Klein's heart feel a little warmer, and there was a feeling that he was not so lonely, and that someone still remembered him.

The spirit appeared in the gray mist, sitting upright in the position of the "fool", Crane felt the pins and needles in the brain sting disappear without a trace in an instant, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then frowned:

"Amon is not here yet? So bearable? ”

In order for the plan to go smoothly, Crane looked left and right, "Looks like I need to find a way to force Him in." ”

He looked at the pile of debris he had hidden with the gray mist, gritted his teeth, fabricated the figure of Gelman, and sent a straight prayer to Daniz to make room for him to receive his things for the time being. After the other party's almost second response, the extraordinary items, extraordinary characteristics, all kinds of miscellaneous items and money on the gray mist were transferred.

Daniz was shocked when he saw such a large number of things, and said to himself, is this madman planning to move to his side?

Thinking that his direct boss Gelman might suddenly appear and come to supervise the work in the future, Daniz was in a trembling position.

Among the more dangerous ones, such as the "Seagod Scepter" and the "Darkless Cross" and other high-order seals, Klein gritted his teeth and threw them directly to Silver City after a simple seal, letting "Sun" Derrick entrust the chief of the council, Colin Iliad, to take care of it.

Derick's reply came quickly:

"Please rest assured, it has been safely received, there are many places in the sealing room of the Round Tower!"

Then, Crane's gaze scanned the long bronze table, and he waved his hand slightly, and all but the place where the cross was shrouded in black veils and the crosses were placed, the sign of the way behind the high-backed chair symbolizing every member of the party disappeared.

"Miss 'Trial' hasn't had time to attend a few more meetings...... And the full moon whisper of Forth, we have to find a way to ...... in the future"

Crane grabbed ten paper figures in one go, and threw them all onto the red star symbolized by Falth Wall.

Now in Sequence 3, he is able to use some of the authority of this path relatively preliminarily, and he has just figured out some simple uses of "miracles", and released these miracles through the medium of paper angels.

The "Source Castle" is a high-level item corresponding to the three paths of "Fortune Teller", "Apprentice", and "Thief", which is extremely important, can have a convergence effect on the corresponding extraordinary, and clearly attracts Amon's covetousness.

After a period of experimentation and exploration, Klein confirmed that the "Source Fort" had the power of these three paths at the same time, but he was a "soothsayer" himself, and most of what he could pry was concentrated in this field.

He disconnected everyone and used the gray mist to cut away the occult connections, hiding the true identity of the Tarot members.

After doing all this, Crane exhaled softly, and with a complicated look he scanned everything in the gray mistβ€”it was now empty, and everything seemed to be back to its original appearance except for the chair that he couldn't control.

Empty and silent, only the gray mist lasts forever.

This is what Audrey and Alger were when they weren't here, what he saw after blindly reciting his name, and what this place had been for thousands or even tens of thousands of years before he came, he changed all that, and here changed him.

He went from an ordinary person to a mysterious "fool", from a person who knew nothing about the extraordinary world, to Sequence 3, knowing countless histories and secrets, and even having the courage to look up at the sky.

Klein watched, watched, and suddenly laughed:

"I can't go back......"

"I can't go back."

He shook his head, a smile on his lips, and slowly untied the citrine pendulum from his wrist.

"But I can still move forward."

"I can't just die here."

Crane took out a Time Worm and placed it in front of him.

"Its essence."

The citrine pendulum slowly began to spin, and Crane closed his eyes and entered a strange dream.

……

Alger, who was standing next to the altar to help Daniz sort out the clutter of the "world", suddenly saw an endless gray mist gushing out in front of him, this familiar scene made him subconsciously lower his head, and then, he felt that the great being seemed to have done something, the gray mist suddenly became thinner, and the towering temple, bronze tables and chairs, and the figure of the "fool" were getting farther and farther away from him.

After a brief moment of stunnedness, the feeling of being abandoned by the gods made Alger's heart suddenly panic. Then, he felt that the coat of arms that had appeared on his hand since his first tarot meeting began to heat up and slowly disappear under his skin.

Alger stared at his hands, his voice trembling slightly, but he tried his best to hide it:

"Do you feel anything?"

"Clothes? Purse? Gelman really threw all his luggage over, why didn't he come with a suitcase. Walking stick? What kind of thing, it seems to heal wounds...... Shit, this cane has made me grow grass on my body! ”

Daniz chattered as he sorted the things that belonged to Gelman Sparrow into different boxes that had been prepared, the extraordinary items and extraordinary properties were separated, and the spiritual wall was added, but the dangerous things were not here. Daniz scrambled like a hot soldering iron, shoved what appeared to be a cane made of log into the box, and plucked the grass that had just sprouted on his head.

The Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom was co-opted by the Storm Church, and the "Lieutenant General of the Iceberg", who was originally affiliated with the Church of Knowledge, was also affected to a greater or lesser extent. However, Edwina Edwards was lucky, with her own power and prestige at sea, and the Church of the Storm was happy to accept a pirate general's overture. At the same time, in order not to provoke a large-scale revolt from the extraordinary people of the Knowledge Church, she was re-released and recognized by simply giving some extraordinary goods and powers.

On the other hand, the "Golden Dream" has been subject to some restrictions, and the financial subsidies it has received have been reduced by more than half.

The aid now given to the rebels in the Rorsted Islands is basically paid for by the "Iceberg Lieutenant General", and mainly in education. Alger didn't know it at first, but when he realized it, he stopped trying to convince Edvina to give him more money.

"Huh? What's wrong? It's normal. ”

Faced with Alger's question, Daniz didn't seem to feel anything, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Alger:

"Let's find an empty room and move these things over, and we have to find someone to clean them regularly, that madman has sent all his belongings, maybe he will suddenly move in at some point."

Alger didn't think Daniz had the acting skills to hide from him, not to mention that every move of God was more important to the oracle.

But he still observed Daniz's micro-expression for a while, and after confirming that the other party really didn't know anything, he held something to keep up.

……

Beckland, East End, inside a two-bedroom rental home.

"Huh." Foirth also saw the gray mist that was fading away and thinning, and she couldn't help but laugh in extreme surprise and uneasiness.

As a best-selling author, she has a rich imagination, and in just a few tens of seconds, she has already woven one terrible story after another in her mind:

Mr. "The Fool" traded his own fall for the defeat of George III;

Mr. Fool's plan was discovered by the gods and besieged;

Mr. "Fool" relapsed from his old wounds and fell back into a deep sleep, no longer answering prayers;

Gelman Sparrow of the "World" is unattended and is being hunted down by his enemies......

The development of these stories is not the same, but the ending is very consistent, that is, Furth himself is trapped in the "full moon whispering" and loses control and becomes a monster.

But then, countless angels with outstretched wings suddenly appeared in Firth's spiritual foreshadowing, and these angels scrambled to embrace her, and all kinds of light were so bright that Firth couldn't open his eyes.

Folth was so sad that he felt that this was the "last meal".

Her roommate, Hugh sat on the single couch on the other side, watching Furth's expression change from horror to confusion, to grief, to grief, to some incomprehension, and finally to the grin that he now had, deeply concerned about the mental condition of his cohabitant.

"What are you doing?" Hugh couldn't help but ask.

Call...... Furth exhaled, smiling, but looking bitter, as if he would die in place in a second:

"I just found out today that Mr. 'Fool' is the most important man in my heart, uh, him."

β€œβ€¦β€¦ What's more important is that you become a demigod as soon as possible and get rid of the full moon curse once and for all. Hugh replied with some helplessness but earnestness.

After joining the Tarot Society, she already knows the true situation of her friends.

"But I'm not there yet!" The smile on Furth's face really began to change to grief, "How did you become a demigod?" Hugh, Mr. 'Fool' is gone, and Mr. 'World' is coming soon, then I'm also going too, Mr. 'World' has a face that is more terrible than a ghost, but he is a good man, I have converted to Mr. Fool, and I can't be buried in the church of the goddess of the night in the future, remember to cremate me, find a public cemetery, and exchange my extraordinary properties and possessions for the Abrahamic family, this is the contact address of my teacher, and I have lived up to his expectations......"

"Stop, stop, how do you start." Hugh showed a somewhat headache expression, and raised his hand to stop the cohabitant's never-ending murmuring in the face of extreme tension and uneasiness, "Isn't your sequence 6 digested well?" Maybe you can look for promotion opportunities this year. ”

"I'll survive the next full moon first." Foirth is pragmatic.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ You will, don't say these frustrating words. Hugh comforted his cohabitant, and then asked, "Why does the 'Fool', Mr. suddenly seem to have lost contact with us?" Did you encounter something? ”

"How can I know what is happening between the gods, no, sure enough! Mr. Fool did not agree with the emperor who disregarded human life to ascend to the throne, so he tried his best to prevent it, but in the end, he lost both, and exchanged his serious injuries for the death of George III......" Furth conceived all the content of the story in an instant, but she did not dare to write it, or even think about it for a while.

Hugh's expression was a little subtle:

"Did the 'Fool' participate in the murder of the Emperor? I arrived late and didn't know very well. ”

"How could it not be? The gods acquiesced, but He failed. Furth didn't want to discuss this topic, her heart was filled with the terrifying whispers of the full moon, she stood up a little sadly, and drifted back to her room with her steps, "Hugh, you should rest early, during this time, I have always heard that the extraordinary people of 'arbiter' and 'lawyer' are out of control, and the Thunder Church is arresting people everywhere, you should also pay attention." ”

"Oh." Hugh nodded, and stood up as well, "I won't be discovered." ”

Furth didn't think there was anything wrong, she floated back to her room, threw herself on the bed, and closed the door by the way:

"Just be careful, it's getting harder and harder for the wild to survive in Beckland, and I'm already planning to move."

……

Leonard, who was patrolling the city of Tingen, tilted his head in confusion and whispered:

"Old man, Mr. 'Fool''s aura is disappearing, do you have any clue?"

Parles didn't say a word.

"I also heard Crane's voice, and he told me to go to the nearby Church of the God of Thunder." Leonard didn't know why, but he still obediently turned a corner, and walked to the newly renovated and expanded "River and Sea Church" in Tingen, he had a good relationship with the bishop of the church, the two usually cooperate a lot, and staying outside for a while will not cause the other party's disgust, "Then I'll go for a while, there's nothing to do." ”

Parles remained silent, as if determined not to speak.

Leonard was a little surprised, and then he realized that something might be wrong, and immediately shut his mouth and walked briskly to the River and Sea Church.

……

Above the Source Castle, Crane entered the dream realm.

In his dream, he saw layers of gray-white mist, and the dream gradually brightened, the fog dispersed, and the bronze table and high-backed chairs appeared one after another, and he saw the same environment as his own source castle, and it seemed to have changed since he first came here.

Klein snapped to his senses, realizing that he was in a dream.

The source fort in the dream was extremely quiet, and Crane sat in the "fool" seat, wondering if this was his subconscious image or Amon's inducement of his dream, and after a while, he felt that it was the latter, and Amon was exploring the situation on the source fort through him.

So he consciously controlled it, and did not let the change continue, the "Crimson Star" did not light up, and the figures of the first two elders of the Tarot Society, "Justice" and "Hanged Man", did not appear.

That's why he chose to contact Amon in the "dream divination" in the Source Castle, which can give Amon enough stimulation to respond under the influence of the Convergence Instinct, and at the same time, Crane's personality is high enough not to be stolen by Amun, secretly cheating, and changing his mind.

After a moment of silence, he leaned slightly, supported his head with his right hand, and looked straight ahead.

Since Amon hasn't shown up yet, then do what he wants to do.

As a result, on the mottled long table in front of him, there were delicious foods and exquisite candles, and the high-backed chairs around him became more relevant to the current era.

And one after another figures appeared, some of them were young people with loud voices, some were talking and laughing, some were middle-aged and elderly men with black hair who could already see some silver threads and their wives, some were women with oriental faces, with short ear-length hair, who were nearly half a hundred years old, some were young people who enjoyed food while playing with their mobile phones, and some were little girls who were laughing and laughing......

After them, new figures were sketched one by one, namely Dunn, who had a higher hairline and dark gray eyes, and Dalie, who wore blue eyeshadow and blush......

They smiled and mingled happily around a long table with candles shining above the gray mist, and occasionally tasted the food.

Crane maintained the expression and posture just now, supported his side face, and watched this scene silently, without making a movement for a long time.

At some point, a figure suddenly appeared at the end of the long table, and a young man wearing a black peaked wizard hat and an out-of-place robe appeared in the position of "the world", facing Klein, cutting a dessert of the old era in his hand.

He gently cut off a corner of the cake with a spoon and placed it in his mouth unhurriedly.

It wasn't until the ancient wizard-dressed guest had eaten a whole piece of cake that he slowly raised his head with a smile.

"Thank you for your hospitality."

Through the faint crowd, the "Angel of Time" Amon who was invited to come smiled at Klein with a friendly look.

He reached out and pinched his eye socket, and the light on his right eye seemed to be a crystal-polished monocle, and there was no light in the Source Castle.

Klein didn't say much, he didn't have much time to waste, so he asked bluntly:

"Do you want Fort Source?"

He was so direct that he didn't expect the smile on Amon's face and the action of pinching his glasses to freeze all of a sudden.
