"He agreed." Edward said.

The eyes of the demon of knowledge were still staring at the southern continent, and he was casually snorting melon seeds: "Oh, is he willing to become a door?" Is he sure? If I was sure, I immediately asked my subordinates to gather the members of Abraham's family to prepare for the calling. ”

That being said, the demon of knowledge had no intention of moving his feet at all, and he didn't even send out a torrent of knowledge.

And in the induction of the two gods, the top of the Abraham family - without angels, nay, even demigods, with only a few sequence 7, has constituted all the living forces of the Abraham family - after the incident of the "secret sage" and Mr. X, almost no one has cultivated students. These people gathered together, no more than two kilometers in a straight line from the Cathedral of Mysteries.

And now, there are demigods and angels stationed in the Cathedral of Mysteries, and two kilometers is only a moment for them.

"By the way, what did you just do?"

"Calling my son to travel to the stars, he didn't want to, I persuaded him." Edward replied, "But he still doesn't want to." ”

……

Edward looked at Trainor, who was held by the back collar of his fate, and sighed: "My good boy, not only do you not want to go with me, but you also want to help?" I'm really not afraid that a lightning bolt will shatter your little body, for fear that your father will not be alone on the road? - Forget it, let me change the question, if you leave me at this time, it is equivalent to getting out of my shelter, and even then, you have to go? ”

Trenor stalked his neck, and after a while, gritted his teeth:

"I'm going."

"If you really make up your mind, then I won't save you." Edward said, "Even if you are in danger, I will prove to others with my attitude that you are no longer under my protection." ”

Trainor only hesitated for half a second: "No problem. ”

"The kid with his elbow turned out."

Hearing this, Edward casually uttered a slang phrase from the old era, although Trenor didn't understand a word. His hand did not let go, but his expression had changed back to his usual emotionless appearance, as if he did not take this answer seriously.

He looked at Trainor: "Even if you could be hacked to death on the road?" ”

"I will pass from the spirit realm and live as long as I can."

Trainor said briefly and quickly, noticing that his father was showing signs of relenting, and he immediately became serious, "This is my personal behavior, so I won't bring the army and church members with me, so I can use the seals to show up on the spot!" You're right, I can't intervene in an angel-level battle, and I'll only die in vain if I appear on a battlefield like that...... But it's not a matter of tactics and strategy, it's that I can't turn a blind eye! I want to help, just for my own inner satisfaction, and if you just take me away, I will never be able to let go. ”

Edward thought for a moment and was noncommittal:

"What are your goals for being promoted so far?"

"What?" Trainor froze.

Edward didn't repeat the question a second time, and Trainor was anxious for time as he quickly figured out the purpose of the question. He thought for a moment, and said in as calm a voice as possible:

"In the beginning, I tried to become Sequence 4 in order to preserve some of my influence and status and not be purged by my family. …… Although I can't say that I have any deep feelings with those who died, I can't completely get rid of the shackles of blood after all. ”

"After that, the church and the council repeatedly attacked, and I thought about running away with the charles, so I chose to be promoted again."

If you have a hard time in Trier, you will be ridiculed, humiliated, and looked down upon while preserving your status as a family member of the nobility and the steam dependents...... Then get out of here, get out of Intis, and send you to Bernadette who has fled to the sea, so you should be happy again, right? …… Unfortunately, Charles, who did not become a demigod, died of depression and panic before the day came.

Thinking of this, Trainor couldn't help but snort:

"His Highness the Red Angel has also asked me if I want to be promoted to Sequence 2, but I don't have any idea about that."

Edward looked at him as if he were looking at something else. He suddenly let go of his hand, and by the way, he straightened the back collar that He had scratched up.

"Go ahead." He said, "This is your way." ”

Trenor looked at his father in disbelief, and after making sure that the other party was really not fishing law enforcement, he turned around and ran, turning into a flash of fire and disappearing directly into the hallway.

……

"That's all."

The demon of knowledge took an unhurried sip of tea and did not comment on this little episode.

Edward didn't intend to say much about this, he looked at the mansion where the Abrahamic family temporarily lived in his field of vision, saw the idea of the demon of knowledge, and smiled:

"What if Klein doesn't say yes?"

"If he doesn't agree, I'm going to bring Bethel Abraham down." The Demon of Knowledge said calmly, "After meeting Crane in person, I'm sure that Crane might also be a mysterious man with a lot of personality, but Bethel is the right ally for me. ”

"Bethel Abraham, no matter how reluctant he is, will retain a certain amount of gratitude when he sees that I am sheltering the last bloodline of the Abraham family, and I don't need a comrade-in-arms to advance and retreat together, I just need a secret that can open the seal and not interfere with me."

The demon of knowledge felt that his requirements were already very low.

It's a good thing that Crane values affection and righteousness, but his way of oscillating between affection and affection is too human.

"If the current situation forces him to make a choice, that's for the best. But whether he has a choice or not, and whatever he chooses, I will put Bethel Abraham back, add fuel to the fire of the current farce, and ......"

The demon of knowledge looked at the north, and a red bead was coiled like a walnut in his hand.

“…… Try to seduce them. ”

Edward looked at the wolfberries and longan in his teacup, at the moon uniqueness and a walnut that had grown unusually large under the influence of uniqueness in his hand, and at the carvings on the chair where the man was sitting.

"I think you're a bit biased." He said sincerely, "Why don't you eat a few Northern Continenters for a change of style?" ”

The demon of knowledge glanced at him, but without speaking, he flicked his fingers, and a ribbon of information light floated into the distance, telling the Abrahams to begin their preparations. And He stood up and prepared to prepare the ceremony himself in the Zenith Square of the Cathedral of Mysteries.

In the area of Trier's Second Ring Road, a gardened mansion that belonged to the Abraham family more than 200 years ago.

The only Sequence 7 Extraordinaires of the Abrahamic family are currently gathered here.

“…… That's the way it is. ”

Dorian Gray gave a complete account of what his student had told him about Mr. Door: "Years of banishment and sealing have driven the Ancestor insane, and he can only occasionally regain his senses, and even if he speaks directly to him, he will have to suffer the malice of the polluting spirit. ”

A man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, like a university professor, sighed and said:

"That's ...... so"

There was a slight relief in his expression, as if he could finally admit that the family curse came from the ancestor's cry for help.

After a pause, the man said with a resolute expression:

"We have to find a way to help the Ancestor get out of trouble, so that the curse on us will be completely removed."

"Verdu, are you crazy? The return of a mad Angel King would ruin the entire family! Dorian couldn't help but reprimand.

The man named Verdu glanced at the rest of the family members, lowered his face and said:

"Therefore, it is necessary to return the Ancestor to the real world as soon as possible, while he is still partially conscious!"

"Once he is out of the state of being banished and sealed, he will definitely gradually regain his senses with enough anchors."

"Dorian, you are depraved! You no longer want to restore the glory of the family, let us return to the top of the North and South Continents, and only hope to live a stable but mediocre life! And, do you think we're still in the room to say no now? Does the Church of the Sage, the God of Knowledge, who acquiesces in our surrender, care about us in these sequences7? The church wants information about our ancestors! ”

"If we don't hand it over, maybe the sage will give up on us too! At that time, who else will be able to receive and shelter us? ”

Yes, they had already asked more than once about the ritual of summoning the ancestors......

Dorian was silent for a few seconds and said:

"But the risk is certainly lower than helping the First Ancestor get out of trouble, and the Sage gave us shelter in the first place to avoid the full moon whispering. During this time, if I wasn't young, I would have had the confidence to take potions and become the 'Recorder' of Sequence 6. ”

Such an act directly captured the hearts of almost everyone in the Abrahamic family, and the torture that accompanied the blood was too painful.

Verdu's eyes lit up, and he took advantage of the victory to pursue:

"Me too. Dorian, even if this is the case, if you give me a while longer, you will also have a lot of confidence in promotion. ”

"Since an elder like you who has passed the best age is okay, then as long as we can get shelter and lift the curse, our next generation, the next generation, will definitely be able to get rid of the original restrictions and have the opportunity to open the door of demigods and demihumans."

Hearing this, the two men and two women other than Dorian nodded their heads in agreement.

Even Dorian hesitated for a moment, but he still didn't think that a mad angel king was something they could guess.

Seeing that Verdu's face was not very good, Dorian slowed down his tone and said:

"What's more, we don't have the strength to complete that ritual right now, and the demigods of either path are not easy to deal with. Among them, the demigods corresponding to 'soothsayers' and 'thieves' are known for their cunning, weirdness, and danger, and even if we are willing to sacrifice ourselves and use '0' level seals, it will be difficult to catch them. ”

Verdu pushed down his gold-rimmed glasses, exhaled slowly, and said:

"If the Being is willing to help the First Ancestor out of trouble, that's the best development, but until then, I will do my best to prepare the ritual, Dorian, you must remember that the blood and glory of the House of Abraham come from the First Ancestor, and without Him there would be no us."

As he spoke, his gaze swept over the ancient and extravagant frescoes of the mansion's chamber, where the Abrahamic family once lived, enjoying power and status, as well as their proud demigods.

It was an honor that could not be forgotten.

"If this matter requires a victim, then I will be the one."

With that, he stood up, put on his top hat, and prepared to leave the chamber.

Dorian watched him go, and sighed for a long time:

"Verdu has been studying all kinds of occult materials in the hope of finding a solution to the family's curse once and for all, and I think this persistence has been integrated into his blood......"

The rest of the Abraham family members nodded one after another:

"When he's sure he's not able to complete the ritual, he'll probably give up......"

They also vaguely hope that Verdu will succeed, but they feel that it is almost impossible.

But as soon as Verdu pushed the door open, a torrent of information roared into the garden of Abraham's mansion, and in the garden he turned into a middle-aged man with a pale face, wearing an old-fashioned wizard's robe, and his hair gradually turned from pure white to black from the root to the end, he squinted at the location of the conference hall, looked at Verdu who pushed the door out, and suddenly said:

"Lord, please go to the Cathedral of Mysteries at once."

After seeing the appearance of the visitor, several Abrahams looked at each other in surprise and confusion, and Dorian boldly spoke: "Your Highness......"

"Don't ask me, I'm busy, I'm only responsible for taking you away."

The old-looking, impatient angel waved his hand, and the data immediately enveloped them and flew involuntarily, heading straight for the Cathedral of Mysteries from the spirit realm. On the way, he said a few more words stingily:

"The Lord will recall your ancestors, and all you have to do is make sure that the ceremony is accurate."

"If it weren't for the importance of this matter, I wouldn't have come to pick you up personally!"

Rumble!

Huge fireworks exploded in everyone's minds, and Abraham, who was being caught on a spiritual journey, looked at each other, barely believing what their ears were hearing.

Even Verdu, who had just decided to recall the Ancestor, was now dumbfounded, and his gold-rimmed glasses were crooked to the side.

"The probability of you becoming a 'gate' ......"

"Do you need to talk about that?"

The smile on the outer god's face didn't move:

"100 percent, of course."

After speaking, he looked at the same unchanged expression on Klein's face, and said what was in the hearts of the two:

"Promotion probabilities are, of course, nonsense, and you won't fail as long as you want to. But if you're asking about you, Klein Moretti's promotion success rate, rather than the 'Mysterious Successor', your odds are frighteningly low. The day before yesterday became sequence two, and today I am ready to become a god and cross the sequence one...... But why don't you hear for yourself what you're talking about? Aren't you worried about losing your humanity and carefully protecting it to this day? ”

"If I can still make this choice, it means that my humanity still exists."

Klein closed his eyes, his face showing reluctance, but he still said seriously:

"In my interactions with you, with the demon of knowledge, and with other mythical creatures, I realized that the forcibly preserved 'humanity' will eventually be alienated into the impression of playing, playing myself, and playing the role of believers...... In that case, I can judge whether I am Klein Moretti or not by my actions, rather than just standing here and asserting that I am still me, and what I will lose if I am promoted here. ”

"As long as my goals haven't changed, as long as my beliefs remain like this, then I'll still be Klein Moretti."

"And then?" The outer god asked, "What are you going to do after becoming the 'door'?" ”

"I-"

Klein thought quickly about what he could do, and suddenly realized that if he became a true god, then many problems would be solved directly! Although only if He was still Him at that time...... However, if he really has the power of the "door......

"The curse of the House of Abraham will be lifted!"

"Forth can also stop suffering from the full moon whispering......"

"My disciples, Silver City and Moon City will have the fastest movement speed and the protection of a true god, and I may have some ability to protect them from the threat of Amun, even if it is just a little more......"

"I can also take advantage of this to find out what 'Yellow Light Venethan' means when the curse is lifted is the beginning of the disaster."

A large list of benefits flashed through his mind, and he instantly lifted a lot.

“…… But will Bethel Abraham also die because of my promotion? ”

Klein hesitated for a moment. From his point of view, Bethel Abraham is a complete innocent, without any conflict or hatred with himself, and in a sense he is also one of his predecessors on the road to "becoming the master of mysteries". Being polluted should not be his purpose, "roaming the stars" may be some kind of promotion ceremony of the "door" pathway, and he will inevitably be polluted in the process - the cry for help has become a curse for the descendants, and this matter will make people desperate for anyone.

It is absolutely impossible to say that Bethel Abraham did not want to compete for the Lord of Mystery at all...... However, it is really hard to imagine that in the Quaternary Period, Antigonus, Bethel, Zalasoroaster and Amon, these powerhouses of the adjacent path could really get together.

Klein thought for a moment.

But sequential promotion is not a trick, when you choose a path, your enemies and friends are already determined. When you are determined to reach the supremacy of this path, all aspirants in the adjacent path are enemies, even friends......

Having made the decision to gradually lose his humanity, Klein found himself facing another hurdle that was actually unable to make up his mind to kill an innocent competitor.

"The way you sway from side to side makes me sick, even though you're already in sequence two, you're still so indecisive."

A voice rushed into his head, and the demon of knowledge said impatiently:

"I can give you a chance, if you have the ability, let Him give up suicide and accept my resurrection."

"It just so happens that He refuses to communicate with all non-human beings, including the gods, and you may have some common language with Him. Of course, if you are eaten by Him, then I will bring Bethel Abraham back to Earth. ”

Klein perked up, and was about to speak, when he heard the second sentence from the Demon of Knowledge.

"Since you have decided to accept my conditions now, then listen well, I only have two requests: One, I hope to open the seal of the Western Continent on the eve of the end of the world. Two, I want to kill the God of Thunder, and you are not allowed to help Him. ”

Crane was silent for a moment, and then he turned his head to look at the distant sky, but he saw nothing but the clouds:

“…… With regard to the second article, I accept your conditions. ”

"Because, now I also have people who want to help. - Not just Richard Ernst, but also the Highlanders. I help them fight this crisis against the attack of the god of thunder, but I will not protect them, they don't need to believe in me to continue to live like this. ”

The Demon of Knowledge paused for a second, and then, the impatience in his tone disappeared and became a little more amiable.

"Then, our pact is established."

Crane felt something, and quickly raised his head and looked at the sky.

In an instant, countless stars in the sky lit up one after another, forming a huge astrological map that encompassed the entire sky—and then, the starlight fell like crumbs, forming a bridge to the sky in front of Crane, like the grandest fireworks.

"Oh my God!"

On the beach, the people in the God's Forsaken Lands, who were preparing tables, chairs and food, were all stunned, they opened their mouths wide, looked at the vast stars and countless mysterious patterns in the sky, and excitedly asked the people around them:

"Is this the outside sky? So beautiful! ”

"These stars are very similar to those recorded in ancient books? Do they have any other names to the outside world? ”

Daniz, who was asked, also opened his mouth wide, and looked at the sky blankly with Alger, and after being pushed by the people around him, he had to stammer:

"This, this is a rare spectacle in the outside world!"

"You're in luck, I haven't seen it either...... Don't ask, don't ask me! See the 'Future' over there? They specialize in astrology, ask them! ”

Alger looked at Gardelia, but saw that the crew of the "Future" was invariably silent, and Cardelia even lowered her head and closed her eyes, as if she was praying.

Could this be ......

Alger's heart was shocked, he immediately glanced around, and sure enough, he didn't see the spiritual brilliance of the "world"!

"Sure enough......" He seemed to have understood something.

In the jungle.

This scene is familiar, and Klein looks at the Starlight Staircase and the Bridge in front of him, and feels very shocked, as if he has returned to the day when he was still Gelman Sparrow, and Cardelia came to the port to pick him up.

But soon, he had a realization in his heart:

This is not a lineage of paths, but the demon of knowledge is announcing to the gods of the Northern Continent in this extremely high-profile way-

"Klein Moretti has become the 'Master of Mysteries' I have elected!"

In a shock of heart, Crane didn't hesitate to step forward and stepped on the first layer of starlight steps.

The next moment, his figure disappeared from the spot, and the light and stars in the sky disappeared, as if it were just a hallucination.

Crane only felt his vision overwhelmed by the white light, and when the light dissipated, he found himself in the heavenly dome.

He's standing in the air, no, or rather, in the middle of the universe!

The world in front of him was an endless black void, and countless luminous stars, large and small, that stretched into the infinite void, emitted faint, colorful light, and these rays came from tens of light-years, even hundreds of light-years away.

Crane couldn't help but be horrified, and then he saw the Demon of Knowledge standing not far away. The various objects in front of the deity are arranged in a mysterious circle, and a brush is constantly tracing the details of the summoning circle.

"Stand there."

The Demon of Knowledge said.

Klein stood still, and then, he felt as if his surroundings were rapidly turning red, and the red light fell on him from top to bottom, and a line of sight seemed to spill from an extremely distant place, just falling on him, and getting closer.

Just as Crane was puzzled and vigilant, the demon of knowledge in the distance took out a red orb from his sleeve.

He was not in a hurry, and the "moon" was uniquely suspended in the palm of His hand, shining brightly.

In an instant, the light in the sky became chaotic and disorderly, alternating red and white, Klein didn't dare to raise his head, only felt that countless terrifying rays seemed to tear apart at any time, and his spiritual power quickly clashed above his head, and the stars on the sky were instantly shattered a lot.

But then, the red light gradually faded, and the snow-white moonlight fell on Crane's back and side, and he felt something, but he didn't dare to look up.

Just as he was thinking about something, suddenly—

Click.

There was a sound of footsteps behind him.

It was as if someone had fallen from the sky and stepped lightly on the "ground" made of the void, looking at him.

——————

Beckland, Hall House Mansion.

Just as Audrey was about to arrive at the restaurant, she suddenly looked up and saw a translucent figure floating there outside the window.

She stared at the figure, and felt that the translucent appearance was very familiar—not like a wraith or a necromancy, but like the first time she had seen Firth exert extraordinary abilities as her body became translucent and passed through the wall.

Apprentice? No, the Hall family is protected by the Extraordinary, and the one who comes must be in the middle sequence, or even higher. If Bishop Elektra in the Church of St. Selena doesn't react either, then it's very likely that the person who came is a demigod!

Audrey was thinking about the other party's intentions, but saw the other party draw a cross on his chest.

"Aurora will ......"

Lady Caitlyn and Anne suddenly heard Audrey's call, and they looked at her at the same time, only to see a pair of golden eyes. (End of chapter)
