Chapter 58: Strength

Roman looked at the figure shrouded in gray mist, stabilized his mood slightly, slowly saluted, and asked, "May I ask Your Excellency, where is this?" What do you want to do? ”

Roman decides to play the role of an ordinary transcendent who is pulled into some mysterious space by a great being, and shows some nervousness and awe at the right time.

Klein looked at the man in front of him, and the emotional color went from fear and excitement just now to calm thinking blue to occupy most of it. I just think that this man's emotional changes are quite reasonable.

He leaned back, clasped his hands crossed, and replied in Hermesian with a leisurely and relaxed gesture, "You may call me a fool, as for what I want to do," Roman chuckled as if he heard the figure shrouded in gray mist, "I heard your prayers and called you here." ”

"Fool ......" Roman opened his mouth and silently recited the word, as if he suddenly thought of something, made a slightly frightened gesture, and half-bowed his head: "Please forgive me for my rudeness." ”

Is there anything special about the word "fool"? How do you hear this word as if you know something?

Klein was puzzled, but he didn't ask, but said in a slightly chuckling tone: "I just heard you say that you 'Antigonus'?" ”

Roman's plan for himself was to set himself up as an image of a person who was not of high order, but had some scattered occult knowledge, so Roman pretended to be a little hesitant and said, "Yes, I have obtained a notebook that seems to mention Abraham, Tamara, and Antigonus. ”

Roman thought that the divination turned out to be related to Antigonus anyway, and he would directly say that Antigonus was mentioned in it, and he was not afraid of being exposed.

"Although this notebook was written in ancient Hermetic script, reading it for a long time will make me feel irritable and even hallucinate and auditory hallucinations, I just heard 'Antigonus' in an auditory hallucination, so I want to divinate the origin of this notebook, you know, the ancestor of Antigonus used to be called half a 'fool'."

Speaking of this, Roman pretended to raise his head slightly, as if to observe the figure in the gray mist, and then lowered his head suddenly.

This is a little "temptation" that Roman thought of in line with the character design, an extraordinary person with a lot of occult knowledge, coming to a strange environment, facing a mysterious strong man, it is reasonable to make a little temptation.

And the content of "temptation" is "half a fool", Roman wants to pretend that he is testing whether this is the ancestor of the Antigonus family.

I'm sure Klein can see that too.

Klein did understand the temptation of the dark-haired man in front of him.

Did he suspect that I was the ancestor of the House of Antigonus? Is there any intrinsic connection between the ancestors of the House of Antigonus, with whom I am deeply entangled, who claim to be "half a fool", and I also call myself "a fool" above this gray mist? So what is this gray fog? A legacy of the ancestors of the House of Antigonus? It is because of this "legacy" that he has a secret connection with the notes of the Antigonus family? Or did you get this "legacy" because of this note?

Klein's heart was full of doubts because of Roman's words, but the direct detailed inquiry was obviously not in line with his identity, so he said in a rather relaxed tone: "Half a fool? ”

Roman was relieved to see that Klein was indeed as he expected, and on the surface he lowered his head, and said: "That is a title that I have unintentionally acquired in some ancient documents of the Quaternary Period, please forgive my ignorance." ”

Quaternary...... Half a fool......

Klein, who had just received some information from Mr. "The Hanged Man" at the Tarot meeting, knew that Antigonus was an ancient family, dating back even to before the Quaternary period, and was related to the second "blasphemous tablet".

The Antigonus family was more active in the Quaternary period, they supported the establishment of the Tudor Empire, and among the ancient surnames just mentioned by the "Hanged Man", there was the "Abraham" that the man in front of him had just mentioned, and the other "Tamara" was unheard of.

Klein was curious about the notebook, which contained many ancient surnames, but did not show it, but said blandly, "I will not blame you for such a thing." ”

"Kudos to your tolerance." Hearing this, Roman raised his head slightly, looking at the figure wrapped in gray mist, Roman thought about how to join the Tarot Society.

Suddenly, Roman had an idea.

"Dear Mr. Fool, I would like to avoid those hallucinations and auditory hallucinations when I read that notebook in the future, and I don't know what it takes to get your refuge?" Roman said with a slight bow.

Klein listened a little embarrassed, what, shelter? I've died once when I read that Antigonus family notebook, so what will I take to protect you?

When I heard this, I wanted to refuse. But Klein thought about it for a moment, chuckled and said, "It sounds like a dangerous notebook, and you need to accumulate enough contributions." ”

Roman asked, "What do I have to give?" ”

Is this also a type of temptation? Test my purpose? And even judging by whether the things I need are old and bloody or not, this "fool"? Or did this man dare to trade with the "evil gods" for the sake of power and knowledge?

Klein thought in his heart, and said flatly: "I am a fool who likes to exchange for equal value, I can give you a chance, you can use your knowledge and ability to get what you want from me, from other people who are similar to you, note, it must be of equal value." ”

"I will do my best to gather things of value in exchange for your refuge," Roman said, bowing his head, "commend you for your generosity, you just mentioned, others like me?" ”

Roman said, as if he had just noticed that there were many seats around the long bronze table.

Klein smiled lightly:

"A few people like you have been pulled here by me for various reasons."

"They want me to hold regular gatherings to trade recipes, buy and sell materials, exchange messages, and commission tasks."

"I promised them."

Roman was waiting for this, and asked in a slightly excited tone, "Mr. Fool, can I attend this party?" ”

"Yes, every Monday, at 3 p.m., eliminate distractions."

Crane displayed a few cards on the bronze table, saying, "They decided to use the name of the tarot card as their codename, you can pick one, but you have to exclude 'Justice' and 'Hanged Man' who already have owners." ”

Roman looked at the cards that suddenly appeared on the mottled bronze table, thought for a moment, and picked up one.

"Power".
