Chapter 17: Traces of the Heart

In a bright yellow world, the spirit state of Glerint is on the throne, and his consciousness is in the person of Sequence 2.

He first manipulated Anthy, let him return to Tingen, away from Bernadette, and immediately changed back to the appearance of "Alan Bieber", and then sacrificed the "Black Emperor Card" and the "Chain of Secret Magic" together.

Looking at the poker card with the image of "Black Emperor Russell", Glerint pouted invisibly, and then looked through all the potion recipes page by page, confirming that they were consistent with the recipes he had obtained from Yuno.

He had previously gone through Anthy and had simply confirmed the authenticity of the card without looking closely at it.

After being confirmed, he prayed and leapt back into the old person, examining it in detail from the inside out to make sure that the "fallen mother goddess" did not leave any secret hand on the card.

After everything was checked, he returned his consciousness to the part of his spirit body in the strange space, which was his truest and most fully mastered person, Sequence 5.

Then, with a slight exhalation, he took up his throne, picked up the card, and pasted it into his illusory spirit.

Suddenly, a kind of wanton and exhilarating feeling of being in control of everything quickly surged into Glerint's heart...... At the same time, the dark sun overhead, the boundless bright and yellow world, trembled at the same time, as if to surrender to the awe-inspiring majesty of His Majesty the Emperor.

"I can clearly perceive that in this state, I have almost complete control over the 'Duke of Entropy' characteristic...... In other words, as long as my spirit stays in this space and accommodates this card, I am a complete 'Duke of Entropy' without any discount...... The only flaw is that the corresponding source of power is still the spirit world, which is slow to respond on the one hand, and may be limited by the enemy on the other. ”

"But why hasn't my connection with the 'Order World' deepened even a little bit because of this?"

After some thought, Gleilynt had the answer:

"Yes, every time I am promoted, the enhancement of the spirit body consists of two parts.

Part of it is the natural growth brought about by the combination of potions and spirits. The other part is the fragments of my soul that escaped into this bright and yellow world as the 'Children of New Chaos' as the 'Children of New Chaos', and they directly replenished my spirit.

This is the fundamental reason why my soul is able to retain the 'old' person. ”

"It can be said that I have always been a 'child of chaos' and have never changed my essence, and the 'world of order' is equivalent to my body, and the two are the closest connection, and there is no possibility of further deepening.

At the moment, I'm just too weak to control the bloated body of the 'World of Order'.

At most, the 'Black Emperor Card' can only be used as a lever to help me leverage more of the power of the 'Order World'. ”

…………

After examining his state clearly, Glerint appeared in a mirror and glanced at his current appearance.

Similar to "Black Emperor Russell", wearing a black jewel crown on his head, wearing pitch-black full-body armor and a cloak of the same color...... The only drawback is that he is missing a scepter in his hand.

After testing it in Strange Space, Glerint took the card to the real world and gave it a try.

Compared to the close fit between the spirit state and this card, in the physical state, it is less useful, and can only be used as a spell casting item, increasing his extraordinary ability by half a level - that is, higher than the middle sequence, but not as good as the demigod.

To be honest, this increase is quite large. It is no wonder that in the "original book", Ziringers dared to say that once he got the "tyrant" card, he could make the four kings above the sea become five kings.

Although the increase was quite large, Gleilynt did not intend to take it with him.

Because of the "aggregation" effect it brings, it is too troublesome.

"Profane Solitaire" is all the creation of Sequence 1 "Emperor of Knowledge" Russell, and no reasonable person should exceed Sequence 1.

But in fact, this is not the case, the "Emperor of Knowledge" can give power to knowledge and give knowledge a personality, so the blasphemous solitaire that carries the formula of the "Black Emperor" actually has a person that is infinitely close to the true God, and if there is no other interference, the aggregation effect between it and extraordinary things in the same way can be said to be terrifying.

…………

Afra assists Tripp in the front and picks a campsite for the day, with only Glerint and Carol in the car...... When Gleilint fiddled with the "Black Emperor Card", he didn't hide it from her at all, which of course aroused her curiosity, but Gleilint didn't take the initiative to say, and she didn't want to ask much, just stared at him with round eyes and looked at him with a bright eye.

But Glerint was just indifferent, and had no intention of explaining it to her.

This was different from his telling secrets at the Tarot meeting, where Glelint didn't mind telling anyone else about the true gods, the secret beings, and the secrets of the old gods if he had the chance, except for the special beings of Amun's brother and the old personhood of the outer godsβ€”he had no reverence for those in high places.

And even if it's an ordinary extraordinary, after knowing those things, as long as they don't die, there will generally be no problems.

But when it comes to knowledge of higher personalities, it's completely different, and in the extraordinary world, knowledge itself means power, it means pollution, and it's not so easy to bear.

This is true not only for Carol, but for all the extraordinary below the old days, even the true gods.

For example, Glerint, who now carries a small part of the memories and knowledge of the two old days of "New Chaos Child" and "High Dimensional Downlooker" in his soul, these things, if you ask Amon or his brother to come over, you will never dare to steal, dare not change it, or even dare to look at it...... Therefore, Gleilynt never worried about which angel king or true god would see the "plot" he "predicted", because they did not dare.

Of course, none of the high-ranking people are stupid, and one of them is very cunning, like when Glerint talked to the night before, he had already vaguely guessed that Greenlight should have foreseen something.

Putting away the "Black Emperor Card" with his backhand, Gleilynt smiled and said to Carol, who was about to flash his eyes:

"Don't look at it, this thing involves a relatively high level, and it is not suitable for you to show it for the time being."

After suggesting that it was a "blasphemy card", he changed the subject and asked:

"By the way, after we arrive in Sobia tomorrow, this trip will be over, what are your plans for the future?"

What he wanted to ask was:

When to go to the ruins of the War of the Gods to explore the ruins of the descendants of Tudor.

It's a pity that this time Carol and him didn't have enough tacit understanding, and couldn't understand his hidden meaning, and after blinking suspiciously, he didn't ask, but crossed his face and pretended to be aggrieved and said:

"You're going to drive me away?"

Over the past few days, she and Glerlint have become quite familiar with each other, except that they haven't pierced the layer of window paper, and they are actually no different from couples - the most direct change is that Carol's playful and coquettish cuteness is becoming more and more natural.

It is said that Greinte, as a man, clearly knows his own thoughts, and he is basically sure of the other party's intentions, of course, he should take the initiative and be brave.

But he always felt that there was a thorn in his heart......

Carol, though more attentive and perceptive than he was, recognized her hazy feelings for Glerint earlier...... But Glerint was a person with a relatively light expression most of the time, so she couldn't accurately grasp his thoughts, so under the influence of a little fear of rejection and a little bit of reserve as a girl, she also didn't speak first.

But her attitude became clearer, she was waiting for Glerint to speak.

But he was good, and put on an attitude that neither took the initiative nor refused...... This made her very distressed, and she was more and more unsure of his attitude.

"How dare I!"

"It's just that I don't have any special arrangements other than publishing those articles recently, and you're about to finish digesting the potions of Sequence 5 and are about to start preparing for promotion, so I just want to put the exploration of the ruins on the agenda."

For the sake of safety, he was ready to let Anthy do all the things in Tingen.

Glerint shook her head and smiled, and subconsciously reached out her hand, either to smooth her face or to rub her head affectionately...... Halfway through, he realized that it was offensive, so he stopped and explained his thoughts to her calmly.

It turned out to be this thing.

Carol didn't notice Glerint's small movements, nodded thoughtfully, and the little face that stepped up seamlessly transformed into two shallow dimples:

"Oh, I see."

"Since you have time, then when you finish posting the article, let's make some more simple preparations, and then let's go."
