Chapter 406: Resurrection
744
In Trier, the capital of the Republic of Intis, the head of an intelligence agency is assigning tasks to his subordinates.
Suddenly, his vision was blurred, and a voice sounded in his ears that seemed to come from afar:
"Orville...... ...... Tyranny Orville...... Diran......"
As an extraordinary person who joined the General Directorate of External Security of Intis as a member of the Esoteric Order, it was not the first time Antoine had encountered something similar.
In some cases in the past, he would hear "Hornachis...... every time he was promoted. Fregra ...... Hornachis ...... Fregela ......" whispered, and several times almost lost control because of it.
Unlike in the past, the content of the whisper seems to have changed.
When the babbling subsided and what he saw returned to normal, Antoine frowned slightly and said to himself silently:
"I've been in a stable mental state lately, and I haven't taken potions and tried to get promoted, how can I hear the whispers of a hidden existence?"
"This seems to be a certain difference from the previous ones......"
"What does Orville stand for? I don't have enough information to decipher ......"
"Diran, Diran, well, the guild officials mentioned that our mysterious and terrible leader once hid an ancient castle called Diran......"
"Hey, I can't help but shudder when I think of that being, although he has returned to normal in the last two years, the terrifying legends and physical destruction he left behind before are enough to make people have nightmares for a lifetime......"
Antoine calmed down, temporarily suppressed his doubts, and continued to arrange tasks for his subordinates.
A few minutes later, he walked out of his office, and after seeing the oncoming "Hunter" passing colleagues in the hallway, he suddenly had an idea-
"After confirming the danger, if it is much beyond my ability, I can directly report it to the 'War Red'!"
"The Legion will work together, so that I can safely get more information, some clue fees, and not have to risk it."
β¦β¦
"The main thing I want to protect is Klein Moretti, not for me to protect Fort Yuan, not to mention that I can't protect that thing."
"Don't say that Klein lost the Source Fort, as long as he still has a breath, he is under the protection of the God of War, and he is one of the Sages of War Red, even if he runs out of gas and becomes a necromantic creature, he is also a ghost of War Red!"
Medici immediately made his attitude clear.
Edward nodded unsurprised, "I see." β
Seeing that he didn't react otherwise, the War Angel began to wonder what the outer gods were trying to do - it seemed that he was really just watching the play? β and after witnessing everything, Medici slowly removed the prayer screen and did not look in that direction again.
There's nothing to see anymore, his end has already settled, and if anyone still calls himself by that honorable name, and someone writes letters in his tone, then it must be all a fraud, a mockery from Amon's ontology.
Medici's clenched fist didn't let go for a long time, and he seemed to be in a bad mood, or in fact very bad, but it didn't affect his ability to judge the situation and organize his language. He cursed a few words, then ignored the demon standing not far away, and began to sort out the papers on the table to make it look like he had something to do.
Edward's gaze swept over the papers on the table, noticing the words "Witch Sect".
He probably guessed that perhaps Medici was preparing to take action against the Witch Sect, gathering information, and preparing to snatch the extraordinary characteristics of a "conqueror" from the hands of the witches, who had been traded by Augustus, the former royal family of Rune.
This sequence is the only element of godhood that can be seen and touched by Medici other than "the Conqueror trait belonging to the royal family of Fersak-Einhorn" and "The Red Priesthood Uniqueness 0-01 placed in the underground sealing room of the Thunder Church on the island of Passu".
If the Medici wanted to go any further, they would definitely do something about it, as long as the trait wasn't already included in the "Original Witch".
"The uniqueness of the Red Priest seems to be contaminated with the pollution of the City of Calamity, you will die once if you deal with that little remnant of pollution, if you come into contact with the City of Calamity again, I am afraid you will be controlled by the City of Calamity."
Edward kindly reminded him:
"It's funny, except for Crane and the real Creator, everyone else who wants to control essentia has to go through dangerous pollution. You become a god before you are initially qualified to touch the city of calamity, but the uniqueness has been polluted, and you cannot become a god. β
"You don't need to remind me, I have my own things to do."
Medici waved his hand, not at all looking at the Dual Path True God.
Trier's sun was fine today, but it was also dazzling after a long time, and Medici felt a little irritable, he swept aside the information in his hand, and asked the demon angrily:
"You can see the future, haven't you tried to change it?"
"-Ah, I'm not the type to change the future."
Edward thought for a while, and said in a nostalgic tone: "It seems that someone asked me this question a long time ago, in fact, fate is not a fixed process for me, but an interesting story full of possibilities, I am just reading your story, sometimes I will guide the plot to the place I am interested in, but I will not change, your ending is still your own." β
"I was surprised that he would help Klein, well, but not very unexpectedly."
"I guess his purpose in helping Crane is to 'keep Amun's body from getting the Source Fort', he doesn't want to be a part of the Lord of Mysteries, he wants to keep this fragile himself, so he takes the initiative to risk it. In a sense, his ideas were incredibly fragile. β
Edward said slowly, and in the distance there was a white cloud moving equally slowly, and he suddenly looked at Medici:
"Would you love him back?"
Medici did not immediately respond to this statement.
Think? Do you want that little doppelganger who can play some lame jokes with himself, who can write letters to himself and the Lord, who can tease him in a tone that is particularly childish compared to Amun's essence? Although that kid has hundreds of years of experience, he has only just taken a step forward on the road of exploring the world, and has just learned what he likes and wants...... Medici thought seriously for a moment, and felt that he probably thought, even if it wasn't the demon standing in front of him, but someone else, he would feel that he really wanted him back.
Medici tapped his hand on the table slowly, at first he was genuinely interested in asking the demon how to get him back, but after a few dozen seconds, he thought of what the other might use.
- In short, it won't be a normal approach.
It is probably to take out all the memories of this doppelganger, and then use the human body to refine or some other method to shape a body, and then stuff his memories into it, and make something that is not in line with human rights that will be discussed in the Mother Earth God Church for several years.
"Forget it, there's no interest."
Medici was not interested, he was a little curious about one more thing, so he asked casually:
"Does he have another future?"
Asked this, Edward's expression suddenly became more serious, and he said in a slow but sure tone:
"Yes."
"Now that his end is doomed and his path is finished, then I don't mind telling you the future I see."
Medici frowned, and sat up straight in a half-circle in Edward's direction. He folded his hands and raised his chin: "I would like to hear it." β
"In what I saw, and what I was looking forward to, he would make the right choices at every point to preserve himself, such as choosing to erase his memories after meeting Crane for the first time, turning a blind eye, and not participating when Crane was about to be discovered. In short, in the end, he will complete the promotion ceremony of the 'Ancient Scholar' as an individual as 'Amun', become a 'miracle master', and be taken away from the earth by me after the end of the world, and go to the starry sky to find the miracle and the world he wants. β
"Sounds pretty romantic."
Medici tugged at the corners of his mouth, and one of the details made him think of Klein, then of Silver City, and finally of the real Creator: "I remember that the promotion ceremony of the ancient scholar was to bring a lost history back to the present era, what did he do?" β
"Let the history of the Amun family in the Fourth Age come back to reality, and then he grabbed a group of clones to play the Amun family with him."
Edward shrugged his shoulders and was a little amused by the development of this possibility:
"In order to do this awareness, he specially grabbed a lot of doppelgangers, and also got the extraordinary characteristics of the 'secret puppet master', and donated a lot of money to archaeological institutions and research institutes to promote the project...... Anyway, he succeeded, after all, he was also a part of a natural high-order mythical creature, and it made sense to do a ritual, and he successfully became him, exchanging death for the miracle of breaking away from the Amun group and gaining freedom. β
It's as if you've seen it all with your own eyes...... Medici was stunned as he heard this, and his mind was already about the boy taking off his monocle, the only symbol of Amon's sexuality, and putting on the clothes he liked.
He will have his own name, and instead of just shouting Amun, He may have his own name...... He seems to be quite fond of collecting glittering things, and when the time comes, he will definitely prepare a lot of accessories for himself, which will look like a shiny jewelry shelf, and use mischievous miracles to tempt the people around him to make wishes to him, so that the wishes will be fulfilled in a way that makes people laugh and cry.
Then He shook his head and sneered, remembering that the hero of the story that had not happened was dead.
A miracle of mistakes.
This magnificent future was stillborn, shattered in the sunlight like his favorite monocle.
Edward asked, "Are you feeling sorry for him?" β
Medici snorted with his nose, and the smile at the corner of his mouth disappeared:
"yes, what's your opinion?"
"He should already be happy about your behavior." Edward shrugged, "Because you're just mourning for him." β
β¦β¦
Pain!
It hurts!
My head hurts!
The murmuring dreams quickly shattered, and Crane's dark sleep was suddenly shattered by a sharp pain in his skull, as if he had been struck with a stick, no, more like a sharp object piercing his temples and stirring...... No, the vague memory before death appeared slowly, and he remembered that he had heard a gunshot before, and he should have been shot from behind and shot directly in the head!
Hiss...... In a daze, Crane wanted to turn over, cover his head, and sit up, but he couldn't move his hands and feet at all, and his body seemed to lose control.
It seems that my body has not fully recovered...... Wait a minute, I'm thinking with my brain right now, right? But I can't control my body, isn't my brain still repaired...... It's kind of scary...... If I open my eyes now, I can see the spirit worm wriggling on my body, and then slowly merging together, turning into skin and flesh...... Klein's eyes were tightly closed, and he spat in confusion.
Although death and resurrection are equally experienced, the previous resurrection is similar to waking up from a sleep, the body will feel tired, consciousness will slowly appear, and there will be little discomfort.
At the first resurrection, when the lid of the coffin was lifted, he could still see that his heart was slowly repairing itself.
I'm now in sequence three, and the whole person is basically composed of spirit worms, can the speed of repair be faster? Crane thought nonsensically, and struggled to concentrate in order to break free from the shackles of darkness and psychedelia.
However, now his state is like when he is half asleep and half awake in the middle of the night, and his will is always fluctuating like smoke, difficult to control, difficult to contain. Klein exerted his meditative strength, but no matter how hard he tried, he still couldn't help but diverge his thoughts and distracting thoughts.
Hey, I have such a bad headache, the gunshots are coming from behind, is the back of my head still alive?
Forget it, my brain should be ...... Well, I can't keep my eyes open as well...... Haven't your eyes been repaired yet?
He felt that he had been dead for a long time, and he seemed to be gradually able to feel the presence of his limbs, and the throbbing pain allowed Klein to accumulate illusory power bit by bit. Finally, he shook his back and opened his eyes, completely getting rid of his half-asleep state.
The vision blurred at first, then saw a dark red and snow white.
As far as he could see, Crane narrowed his eyes, and it took a full ten seconds for him to realize that he was still lying on the snow.
It was now approaching winter, and it was still snowing on the border of Rune-Vrsack, and his body was covered with a thick layer of snow, and there were faint traces of blood scattered under the snow around him, which had solidified into a dark red under the snow, like a flower that had bloomed out of place, and in the center was where his head had fallen after falling.
What time is it? How many days have I been dead? By the way, Tarot will ......
Klein's eyes widened, and he suddenly smiled self-deprecatingly.
Having died once had already forgotten that he had successfully made the source castle disappear from himself and changed hands to Amon, there was no tarot meeting now, and there might not be one in the futureβbut Crane hoped that there would be a day when it would be reconvened.
"Even if I don't, I'll have to inform everyone...... I seem to have been informed? Don't pray, don't respond...... By the way, there are also Silver City and Moon City...... Godforsaken Lands...... I should go to the Forsaken Lands now to prepare for the promotion ceremony for Sequence 3......"
Crane struggled to control his body, muttering in a voice that only he could hear.
He had a terrible headache now, and he had almost no strength in his body, and he could barely concentrate his thoughts. Klein's mind was filled with countless fragmented images, and he had to speak out of his mouth in order to clear his plans and thoughts.
"Hey, can you still stand up? It's so alive! β
Crane suddenly felt like he was being pulled violently, and there was a person close to him, but he never noticed!
Klein's heart was alarmed, he looked up suddenly, and saw a bright red like a flame in the pale world of white sky and white snow, and suddenly felt a little unable to take his eyes off, and even a little dazzling.
"Unbelievable, Fort Source can resurrect you early? I don't know what effect the city of calamity will have......"
Medici muttered a few words, casually lifted Klein up like a thing, and didn't care what Klein thought, and said directly to himself: "Let's go, go back with me, the Esoteric Society is just short of people, you are all three, hurry up and report to the intelligence department." β
Klein opened his mouth, froze for two seconds, and then spoke abruptly:
ββ¦β¦ I don't have a Source Fort anymore. β
"The True Creator values me only because of the Source Castle, and you don't need to follow the True Creator's request to protect me anymore."
"It's just that there's no Source Fort anymore, I was shocked, I thought you weren't Klein Moretti anymore." Medici snorted, "Don't talk this nonsense, you're mistaken, the Lord wants you to live, not to want the source castle to live, I also want you to live, so hurry up and follow me." β
"I'm listening."
Edward said, "Just gone?" I have something to look for him. β
Medici sneered, patted Klein on the shoulder, and pulled him behind him again:
"See the Psychic Link? This is an internal affair for the Red of War, and the Demon King should not be involved. β
"You don't have to say that." Edward shook his head, "What does it have to do with you if I have something to do with him?" β
Medici was about to speak, but Crane took the initiative to step out from behind him, his Adam's apple rolled, and with a calm and generous look in front of him, he looked directly at the demon in front of him who had taken his life twice, and tried his best to keep his voice steady:
"I'm right here, what's the matter with me?"
TBC
