"That's Afternoon Town."

In the afternoon, on a hill not far from the town, the girl stretched out her little hand to gently smooth her windswept hair, and said softly, "Legend has it that if you pass through there, you will reach the court of the giants." ”

Ember stood beside Alice, looking out over the town of Afternoon in the distance.

It's a town, but it's not much smaller than the Silver City they lived in before, in the Silver Country.

In the afternoon, the town is built at the foot of the mountain, and is naturally divided into upper, middle and lower classes. There are nights and days, but all the days are in the 'afternoon' state, and no matter the fog, rain, or snow and ice hit, the sun is more intense.

"This is the only way to the Giant's Court, the gateway that separates reality from myth!

"Where is the Giant King?"

Ember suddenly asked, looking at the magnificent palace at the back of the town in the afternoon, which seemed to freeze in the twilight.

"Yes, not only Ormir, the Giant King, but also other Giant Deities, and it is said that only devout believers can enter it and receive the Giant Deities' blessings."

Alice put her little hands behind her back and walked to Ember with light steps, leaning forward while looking sideways at Ember, and asked curiously, "But what are you asking for?" You don't seem to be a believer in the Giant King, do you? ”

Ember glanced at her and said calmly:

"Curious."

Alice puffed up her face and said, 'Do you look like a fool?' 's expression, obviously not believing his nonsense.

But Ember obviously didn't have the idea of explaining, he just walked silently in the direction of Afternoon Town.

"Little Allen~, keep up."

Alice rolled her eyes, but kept up with Ember and beckoned to the boy behind her.

Allen's body trembled slightly, as if he was fighting against something, but in the end he followed in silence.

Although the town is just a 'town', it seems to be more prosperous than the country of silver. There was an endless stream of devout Terran believers coming and going, and the three Ember were not conspicuous at all.

Alice looked at the pious crowd around her, and said softly with a little nostalgia in her tone:

"They're here for the pilgrimage."

Ember's gaze glanced at a slightly stumbling figure not far away, who was slowly walking towards the afternoon town with three steps and one bow. And people like him formed a long line.

Their devotion to the Giants is almost palpable, and it takes no words to see it.

But is it really worth it?

As the team slowly advanced, the three Ember Trio who were mixed in the team finally arrived at the gate of Afternoon Town.

Unlike Silver City, in addition to a team of human guards at the gate of Afternoon Town, there are two giants with a height of five meters on both sides of the city gate!

Both giants' skin was an eerie grayish-blue color, with a thick layer of beast fur wrapped around their chest, abdomen, and crotch, while the rest of the body was bare, leaving even their feet unprotected. They, clubbing their chest-level greatswords wider than human doors, were looking down on the believers entering the city with their signature straight eyes on their foreheads.

And when believers see these tall and powerful giants, they will naturally instinctively feel awe. Because for mortals, there is no need for even those giant gods to take action, just these ordinary giants are also the gods of war who can kill seven in and seven out of the crowd without being injured!

When you enter the city, you will find that the architectural form here is slightly different from that of the Silver City.

Here, the gray stone is built into different houses, which are arranged in a compact manner. Some of them are hollowed out in one piece, close to ten meters, and some are almost the same as the environment in which normal people live, only slightly taller than one person.

The short ones are for mortals, while the tall ones are for giants.

"Is that them? Is the ritual commanded by the Lord to be given to them? ”

"I don't know, do you want me to test it?"

"Go, my lord is watching. If exposed, you know what to do. ”

"Understand, may the glory of mankind endure."

"May the glory of mankind endure forever, praise be to our Lord!"

"Praise be to my lord!"

Ember walks down the solid stone streets of the city, and Alice is holding his arm affectionately, like a couple in love. But they didn't seem to notice, but Allen, who was following the two of them, suddenly shuddered, and he suddenly looked around.

In the shadow-covered alleyways between the houses, there seemed to be a faint shadow peeping in.

……

The land of silver, the city of silver.

In a grand hall of ten meters high, supported by stone pillars, an old man with white hair and beard bows his head in prayer. Werther Iliad looked at the old man's back and walked towards him in silence.

In this huge and magnificent palace, it is easy for human beings to feel their own insignificance, and unconsciously respect the tall giant stone statues on both sides, as well as the huge murals carved on both sides of the hall.

The same is true of Wirt, who panics whenever his gaze sweeps over the gargoyles, for he always feels as if they are alive. And when his gaze swept over the two huge murals in the hall, he would involuntarily lower his head.

Because in the two murals, the protagonist of one of the murals is a giant wearing silver full-body armor, emitting a clear light, and the eyes are condensed with a morning light. In the center of the other stands a female giant with long dark brown hair and a long skirt under leather armor, holding ears of wheat and fruits, surrounded by harvest fields, clear lakes, fruit-bearing trees, and brightly colored mushrooms.

These two giants, one is Badhair, the god of the dawn, and the other is Omibela, the goddess of harvest. The Land of Silver worships Omibela, the goddess of the harvest, and Badhair, the god of the dawn as its heir, is generously shared in a portion of the faith by the goddess of harvest.

Wirt's gaze swept over the mural depicting the female giant, lingering for a moment and then quickly looking away, silently lowering his head and not daring to look again.

I don't know how long I walked in this empty and magnificent hall, but Wirther finally came behind the old man and saluted respectfully:

"High Priest."

The old man came back to his senses, looked at the middle-aged man in front of him with cloudy eyes, and said with a smile:

"Werther, in three days it will be the day of the Birth of the Gods, when the Goddess of Harvest will come to the Land of Silver to bless the pious people who believe in the Goddess, and is the ceremony ready for the celebration?"

Wirther still kept his head down, and he didn't know if it was because of respect or what, he just whispered:

"We have everything in place, just waiting for the Goddess to come."

After a pause, Wirther seemed to hesitate and whispered:

"High Priest, many strangers have recently come to the Silver Country, their identities are unknown, and there is even a suspicion that a blood clan is lurking among them. It's just that relying on our city defense team alone, it's hard to tell the difference. I'm a little worried that these people might disrupt the festival. ”

The old man smiled, and his words were full of devout belief and reverence for the gods:

"It doesn't matter, the blade of my god will cleanse those who have ulterior motives. Besides, there are also oracles in the city, if you are not sure to distinguish those bloods, you can ask the oracles for help. ”

Wirther lowered his head, nodded thoughtfully as if he was thinking, and then said respectfully:

"Yes, High Priest."

The old man smiled with satisfaction, and silently turned around to look at the tall female giant statue in front of him, respectfully and reverently:

"Praise the Goddess."

Wirt's head lowered a little, and he also prayed in a low voice:

"Praise be to my lord."

After praying, Werther silently withdrew from the magnificent palace.

Under the watchful eyes of the palace guards, he silently walked through the square in front of the palace and across the streets back to his home.

"Crunch!"

Wirt pushed the door open, and a soft female voice came from the back room, "Wirt, are you back?" Lunch is ready, you wait a bit. ”

"Okay."

Wirt looked at his wife as she came out of the kitchen and smiled happily.

He is married and has two children.

One is already training in the reserve of the city defense corps, and the other is still in infancy.

Sitting at the dining table, Wirt looked at his wife, and the two looked at each other and smiled. Then close your eyes at the same time, fold your hands and start praying:

"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name. Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. forgive us our debts, just as we forgive our debtors. He will not lead us into temptation, but deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, are all yours forever, Amen! ”

……

Eastern Continent, a small village near the Elven sphere of influence.

In a grand temple in the center of the village is dedicated to a tall, one-eyed giant god who is none other than the Giant King, Ormir. At this moment, a man wearing a white robe with a silver cross hanging from his chest was standing in front of the huge statue. He kept his head down, looking like he was praying.

The man's hair was not long, mainly jet-black, but the roots showed a pale yellow and golden color, and his eyes were azure, but if you looked closely, you could see a ray of golden light. His skin was whiter, with deep contours, sunken eye sockets, and he appeared to be from the north.

He didn't know whether he was thinking or listening, and suddenly reached out to hold the silver cross on his chest, the corners of his mouth hooked up a little, and said in a low voice:

"Amen."

"Lord!"

At this moment, a handsome young man with bright red hair as bright as fire suddenly hurried towards the temple, shouting loudly as he ran, "Leodro and Osecus, they are going to rebel!" ”

"Medici."

The white-robed man glanced at him and said leisurely, "What did you do to make Leodro and them angry?" ”

"You don't blame me this time!"

The teenager known as Medici looked aggrieved.

The white-robed man just shook his head, apparently not believing what Medici said.

Behind them, two tall, but equally handsome-looking youths were rapidly approaching the temple, apparently chasing Medici. It's just that when they saw the white-robed man, their footsteps quickly slowed down and bowed their heads respectfully:

"Lord."

The white-robed man bowed his head slightly, and commanded:

"Leonro, go and call Sarsilil and Ulorius."

"Yes, my lord."

Leodro replied respectfully, taking a few steps back before turning around and leaving in one direction.

The red-haired boy asked curiously:

"My lord, where are we going?"

The corners of the white-robed man's mouth were slightly hooked, and he smiled:

"Go and work with the Giant King."

"Cooperation?"

Medici has a strange expression, you robbed other people's believers, and now you still say that you want to cooperate? You're not afraid of being slapped to death by the giant king?

The white-robed man suddenly restrained his smile and looked at Medici with an expressionless face.

……

In a hidden space filled with light, a cross hundreds of meters high was erected directly in front of it. In front of the cross, a huge vague figure stood, carrying everything on its back, looking at the spirits with pity.

In front of the giants there were rows of black seats with backrests, but there was only one prayer.

The prayer was seated in the center of the first row with his eyes closed, dressed in a rather modest white robe, with a pale gold beard that covered the lower half of his face, and his hands clasped in front of the silver cross pendant on his chest, with a warm and calm expression.

At this moment, he raised his head, revealing eyes as clear as a child, and muttered with a calm expression:

"I always thought you fell asleep after that, and I waited for you to wake up."

"But it's only now that I realize that it's surprising that I've been waking up from your slumber all along, from the future."

"No, it doesn't seem like it's up to me to express surprise, it's more appropriate for another me."

"What is there, there will be again; What has been done, it will be done again. ”

"Is the power of this time also the result of the first fire? If it was the beginning, could He have done it? I guess I can. ”

"It's just that why didn't you think about burning me at that time? Isn't that what you've been looking for? ”

"If you don't burn anything, how can you continue the first fire?"

"Then what I've done, isn't there much meaning?"

Or was it all a lie from the start? It starts with a lie and ends with a lie. ”

He suddenly raised his head, probably thinking that he should be smiling at this time, so the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked.

In front of him, a picture suddenly appeared, from far to near, from blurry to clear. Eventually, the person in the picture appeared in front of him. It was a man in a white robe with a very classical atmosphere.

There was a halo of light behind his head, quietly emitting a glow, like a round of sun. At his feet, there is an illusory circle divided into twelve squares, each with a symbol symbolizing different times. Behind him was a veil-like shadow, and within the shadow there seemed to be an eye peering out silently.

He suddenly sighed softly, waved his hand to fade the picture, and whispered again:

"What is your relationship with her? Or rather, what is the relationship with them? ”

"It's just that whatever you want to do now, it's extremely bad for me now, even if there is another me. This may be a good thing or a bad thing. In retrospect, it would have been much better off if it had been burned back then. ”

"It would have cost me some of my strength, but at least I wouldn't have to worry about it in the first place."

"Of course, it could also be that I was completely burned down."

His voice grew quieter and quieter, until his figure suddenly disappeared. And after he disappeared, the whole space seemed to return to nothingness.

……

November 5th, another Monday.

At 2:30 p.m., Klein entered the mysterious space above the gray fog ahead of time. In the magnificent ancient palace, he sat down in the place of the 'fool', and his eyes began to search silently among the crimson stars, large or small, illusory or solid.

But as always, he still couldn't find the existence of the flame.

"I'm in trouble."

Crane let out a long sigh, and every day for a week he would come to the 'flame' above the gray mist, which symbolized the corresponding embers, but each time it was to no avail. And in the blink of an eye, it's the day of the Tarot Society, so how can he explain the 'disappearance' of Ember to the others?

Klein frowned, not only thinking about a solution, but also where Ember was now.

According to the results of the last divination, Ember is indeed in the land of God's forsaken. But until now, there was still no information about Ember on the little sun's side. Klein guessed that it might have been the interference of Amon's clone before his death, causing Ember to land in the wrong place despite successfully reaching the Godforsaken Lands.

He was supposed to appear next to Xiao Sun, but it is likely that because of the interference of Amon's clone before his death, he eventually appeared somewhere else, maybe even by Amon's main body.

But this still doesn't explain why the 'flame' suddenly 'disappeared', and of course it may have been 'blocked' by something, which caused him to be unable to find a flame that could symbolize embers for the time being.

And the first thing that is certain is that the Godforsaken Land will definitely not be able to do this, otherwise Little Sun will not be able to get in touch with him. That's Amon? It's not very likely, although he is most likely a sequence 1 angel, second only to a god, but he is not a real god after all.

Although Amon almost succeeded in invading the Grey Mist, it was 'almost' after all. Moreover, Amon even needs to use the medium of the little sun to invade the gray fog, and it is nonsense to want to interfere with the gray fog.

But if these are not the culprits that caused the 'flames' to disappear, then what is the reason?

Could it be that there is a real God interfering? The Eternal Sun had proven that the true gods could not interfere with the Grey Mist at will, and the only time the Grey Mist was successfully 'invaded' was when he first divined the Ember.

"She is the goddess of the night who is exalted above the stars, who is older than eternity, the Lord of Crimson, the Mother of Secrets, the Empress of Doom and Fear, the Lord of Slumber and Silence."

Crane whispered the goddess's name, and the memory of being invaded by the goddess above the gray mist came to his mind. Although in the end, the goddess was successfully 'forced back' by the gray mist, the degree of the goddess's invasion was also significantly stronger than that of the eternal sun. But if the goddess is not 'forced to retreat', but just wants to give him a small warning and actively retreats, then the nature is completely different!

The goddess, who is the 'Mother of Secrets', may really be able to 'hide' the flame that represents the embers. But this still doesn't make sense of the explanation, such as the goddess shouldn't cooperate with Amun.

And whether the embers are by Amun's body or are 'covered' by the goddess, his divination will inevitably alert these two, and even lead to another invasion above the gray mist.

And even if the previous divination had shown that Ember was not in any danger, even if the divination results showed that he could get in touch with Ember again, Crane couldn't just leave it alone! He had to do this divination, because he had lost people.

Crane took a deep breath and opened his right hand, the palm of which was a ring full of cracks and bumps. This is the sacrificial ring that Ember sold to Miss 'Justice', which Klein used as a 'world' to trick Miss Audrey into using his identity as a 'world' under the pretext that he was in danger.

Of course, Klein didn't intend to be so shameless in his greed for ink, he was just going to use this ring for divination. After all, if there are items used by the divination object during divination, the result of divination will be more accurate.

Klein appeared on a piece of parchment and immediately wrote down specific divination statements on the paper:

"The location of the embers."

After reciting it seven times, he took the parchment and the sacrificial ring and leaned back in his chair. In a few seconds, Crane's eyes darkened, turning brown to black, and he entered a meditative state. His eyelids drooped, and he "saw" an illusory and hazy dream.

It is a huge city built on the mountain, and the layers are clearly divided into upper, middle and lower classes!

Ember was on the streets of the city, and there was a beautiful girl beside him, playful and cute, smiling like a flower, who seemed to be saying something in love. Looking in the direction they were facing, it seemed that they were preparing to leave the city.

Behind them, there was a cowering teenager who seemed to tremble with fear. In addition to this, there are bustling crowds passing by on the streets near them.

And the most incredible thing for Klein is that among these passing crowds, there are several giants with gray-blue skin and vertical one-eyed eyes! That's a real giant, but isn't the giant extinct?

But the picture didn't give Klein time to shock, because his gaze followed the gaze of the embers who suddenly turned back in the picture into the distance. I found that at the back of this town, on the high mountain, there was a building that seemed to be frozen in the twilight!

Crane didn't know what words to use to describe it, magnificent, magnificent, majestic, it was like the legendary giant's palace!

When Crane saw this, the dream quickly faded and he woke up, and the shock of seeing the dream still remained in his eyes.

"No, maybe it's not, it might really be the Giant Court!"

Klein swallowed, suddenly realizing a serious question.

According to Little Sun, there are not many living people left in the Godforsaken Land. At least in the past thousand years, they haven't found a single living person in the wilderness except Silver City! And more importantly, there is no day at all in Godforsaken, only night!

But the place where the embers are is bustling with extraordinary people, rubbing shoulders with each other, and it's still daytime! It may seem like it's close to dusk in the afternoon, but it's daytime, and that's not what Godforsaken should be!

But those giants, and the magnificent building that seemed to be the Giant's Court, as well as the little sun's once said that 'Silver City used to believe that the Giant King, and the Silver City was near the Giant's Court', and the divination results of 'Ember is in the Godforsaken Land'......

All of this combined to tell Klein a message that shocked him even the gods:

Ember is indeed in the Godforsaken Lands, but it is the Godforsaken Lands that has not been abandoned by the gods before the Cataclysm! It is true that there is a mistake in his crossing, but the mistake is not space, but time!

Klein thought almost subconsciously:

"It must have been Manus!"

The corners of Klein's mouth twitched, and he suddenly felt that his idea was a bit cerebral and decisively put it away. Although it is not yet known the reason for the embers to 'cross', Klein has a hunch that it should not be due to some interference, but related to the 'first fire'.

Either way, at least he could explain Ember's disappearance to the Tarot members for now.

Soon, the time came to three o'clock in the afternoon. Streams of light rose from the giant-like palace, and the 'Justice', 'The Hanged Man' and others projected vague figures dyed with a slight red.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool."

Audrey greeted every member of the Tarot Society as always, but when her eyes came into contact with the place where the embers should have been, but were empty at the moment, they suddenly stopped.

'Magician' Furth quietly clenched his hands under the table and pursed his lips slightly:

"Haven't you come back yet? What the hell is going on. ”

"Mr. 'Fool'."

Furth took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and stood up, "I—I've collected thirty-three pages of Russell's diaries this time, and I'll give them to you in several times, but I hope I can get an answer from you." ”

"Thirty-three pages?"

Crane's expression moved slightly.

With this number of diaries, even Miss 'Justice' can't do it. Miss 'Folth' is probably using the connections of the Abrahamic family, should it be said that it is an ancient family that has been passed down for thousands of years? As for Miss Forth's question, Klein had expected it.

"Yes."

Klein knew that he was naturally right, and said with a smile: "You can ask your question first." ”

"Mr. 'Fool', I request a separate exchange."

Furth hesitated for a moment and whispered.

Mr. 'Fool' bowed slightly, waved his hand to block out the perception of the others, and then turned his gaze to Miss 'Magician' and motioned for her to continue.

Furth pursed his lips and plucked up the courage to ask:

"Mr. 'Fool', I—I just want to know where the embers are?"

Klein was not surprised by Forth's question, but he couldn't help but feel a little emotional:

"Looking at it this way, Miss 'Magician' probably hasn't told Miss 'Judgment' and 'Justice' about Ember's disappearance, is this a plan to sacrifice herself to save them as much as possible?"

"A little envious."

Crane's expression was a little complicated, and he thought of the captain again, Leonard, and Benson and Melissa. But he quickly adjusted his state, and with the help of the clown's ability to control his expression, he smiled in a relaxed tone:

"Do you want one person to know the answer, or do you want others to know too?"

"I'm alone."

Furth said without hesitation.

The 'Fool' bowed slightly, and with a wave of his hand, he embodied the dream he had just divined to Folth.

“……”

Furth froze in place, as if shocked by the sight of the picture.

This made Klein quite satisfied, and he was in this state when he saw this picture, which was normal.

"Mr. 'Fool'."

Furth hesitated for a long time and asked in a low voice, "I wonder what this place is?" ”

Klein leaned back in his chair and said leisurely:

"Godforsaken Land, Giant's Court."

"I ......"

Furth's brain was a little down, and it seemed that she couldn't process this overly complicated information, so she could only ask with difficulty, "Mr. Fool, can you show the picture just now to the others?" ”

"Of course."

Klein smiled slightly, "I like the equivalent exchange, this is the answer you get in exchange, the decision is yours." ”

He wished everyone else could see it, but what if everyone else thought he had killed the embers? Wouldn't the credibility of this 'fool' be seriously damaged?

……

The Land of Silver.

The three Embers, who had returned from the town in the afternoon, returned to the Silver Country in a rented carriage, all the way helpless, only to be stopped by the guards as they passed through the city gates. And when the captain of the city defense team stepped forward to check, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and said in surprise:

"Mr. Ash, why are you?"

"Mr. Wirther."

Ember also looked at him with some confusion, "Aren't you from the city defense team?" ”

"The city defense team is also rotated."

Wirther Iliad shrugged and glanced at the Alice sister and brother in the carriage, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, she didn't look carefully last time, but this time she didn't expect the girl to have such a look. It's a pity that the last time I saw it, I was actually covered with a quilt, and I really don't know what kind of delicate body is under the quilt......

It took a long time for Wirt to finally come to his senses, settle down, and ask casually, seemingly unintentionally, "Where did you come from?" ”

Ember didn't hide it, and said calmly:

"We just got back from Afternoon Town."

Wirther was clear, and one of the purposes of many outsiders who came to the Silver Country was to go to Afternoon Town.

Because it was the closest place to the Giant's Court, whenever they wanted to pay their respects to the gods, they would go to Afternoon Town. And the pilgrimage procession of those fanatical believers is endless, stretching for more than ten miles.

However, the vast majority of people will eventually be disappointed. After all, the giant gods all inhabit the Giant Court, so how could they easily appear in front of mortals?

"Mr. Ash."

Wilt reminded, "If you want to meet the gods, you don't have to go to Afternoon Town. ”

Ember, who was originally indifferent to the gods, became interested when he heard this.

Wirther knew he wasn't a native and patiently explained:

"In three days it will be the Birthday of the Gods, and on that day the Goddess of Harvest will come in person to bless the people of the Land of Silver. If you want to pay homage to the gods, you might as well wait a few more days. ”

After a pause, Werther added, "There will probably be more than one god present. ”

Wirther paused at this point, as if he didn't want to reveal any more information. He didn't bother to continue the conversation, but quickly waved his hand at the guards behind him, signaling for them to let him go.

"Three days from now is God's birthday?"

Ember looked sideways at the girl beside him and suddenly asked.

"Uh-huh."

Alice looked at him with a smile, and after a long time said in a somewhat arrogant tone, "I don't even know about this kind of thing, I really don't know which mountain you jumped out of." ”

Ember ignored her and turned his gaze to the boy opposite who was pretending to be an ostrich with his head shrunk:

"Alan, you know what?"

Alan still looked cowering, and whispered back:

"The day of the god's birth is the day of the birth of the gods, and each god has one day as the day of his god's birth, and the god's followers celebrate on this day."

Ember's expression twitched slightly, what you said was just like what you said.

Shaking his head, Ember turned his gaze to Alice again and asked:

"You're here for God's birthday?"

Alice smiled as if it could tarnish everything, and responded in a sweet voice:

"Guess?"

Ember looked at her expressionlessly as he raised his hand. This made the smile on Alice's face, who was originally smiling like a flower, stiffen, and she looked at Ember in disbelief, as if to say, 'Are you unaffordable?'

And in the face of the girl's questioning, Ember is ready to prove this problem with practical actions:

That's right, he just can't afford to play!

Alice was so frightened that she curled up in the corner, looking like she had been bullied and defiled, and cried:

"Woo woo woo ~ don't come here! No, don't do that to me, I just say it, I'll sue you whatever you want to know. ”

"Really, really, I can help you with my hands, please don't do that...... At least, at least not here. ”

"You're normal."

Ember withdrew his hand and said expressionlessly.

"Uninteresting man."

Alice rolled her eyes and sat back down next to Ember, her elegant and sweet smile reappearing on her face, and she smiled, "That's right, Alan and I are here for the God's Birthday, after all, this may be the only chance in our lives to see the honor of the gods up close." After all, that's a god~"

Alice said, her face couldn't help but show a look of longing, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly:

"What a wonderful name for Umibella, the goddess of the harvest! Ash, you said yes, right? ”

Ember didn't respond to her, just looked thoughtfully at the top of the girl's head, as if she knew something.

And Alice still had a shallow smile on the corner of her mouth, looking thoughtfully in the direction of the outside of the city. Before the Goddess of Harvest arrives, she needs to do one more thing, at least to have the strength to match it.

For example, promoted to the rank of Sequence 2 of the Desolate Master.

……

Above the gray mist, inside the magnificent palace, the Tarot Society fell into almost dead silence for a moment.

"Godforsaken land?"

Alger asked, hesitantly, "Mr. 'Fool', if I want to know how Mr. 'Lover' will get to the Godforsaken Lands, what will it cost?" ”

'Fool' Klein chuckled in a low voice:

"This approach doesn't work for anyone but 'lovers.'"

Others are not like Ember who can 'separate the soul and flesh' without problems, and it is impossible for them to travel through time and space. If someone does learn Ember's manipulation and has to go through the illusory gate to the location of the other members, their souls may survive, but there is no guarantee that their bodies will not fail.

And Klein doesn't want to casually make some dangerous experiments so that the tarot will be attritional, so naturally he wants to block the possibility of other people's death in advance, isn't it good to live?

"Doesn't it apply?"

Alger nodded thoughtfully, he had actually discovered the particularity of Ember a long time ago, and he also connected the two at this time.

"Mr. 'Fool'."

Miss 'Justice' asked with some hesitation, "Then, when will Mr. 'Lover' come back?" ”

Klein's eyes flickered, and he chuckled:

"It depends on when he wants to come back."

"I'm sorry, Ember."

Klein silently apologized in his heart, after all, he didn't know when he would be able to contact Ember.

And at this time, if you can't pretend to be stupid, then just throw the pot!

"Mr. Fool!"

'Sun' Derick finally couldn't hold back, and with great excitement and shock, he couldn't help but interject and ask, "I want to know where Mr. 'Lover' is in the Godforsaken Land?" ”

The other members all had their eyes on Derrick, and they all knew what Ember's position meant to Derrick -

In Godforsaken Lands, there is no concept of daylight at all, everything is shrouded in darkness. And now the embers are not only in the Godforsaken Lands, but also in daylight! This place is worth more than anything to Darek and to Silver City!

Klein's fingers on the long bronze table twitched slightly, and he said in a calm tone:

"Outside the Giant's Court."

He didn't know where the embers were, so he could only use 'periphery' to refer to them—

After all, there are so many giants in the picture, and the magnificent palace can already be stone hammered into the giant royal court.

Derick stood up with some excitement and asked:

"Do you mean Afternoon Town?"

"Afternoon Town?"

The 'Hanged Man' eyes flashed, and he suddenly asked, "What is that place?" ”

"I'm sorry, I lost my temper."

Derik calmed down a little, and explained as he collected his thoughts, "In the records of Silver City, this is the only way for the Silver Kingdom to reach the Giant's Court, where humans and giants live in the town, clustered around the abode of the ancient gods that are forever frozen in dusk, like the last gate from the real world to myths and legends. ”

After a pause, Derrick continued, "It's just that although the afternoon town is not far from Silver City in the records, we have not known to have found any trace of its existence for all these years. All the towns we found were in ruins, and none of them were as forever frozen in the afternoon dusk as the afternoon towns. ”

"No, maybe you've found it, but you just didn't recognize it."

Klein complained in his heart.

The embers are in the past, before the giants were extinct and the cataclysm had not yet occurred. At that time, the Giant King was probably still alive, and of course the 'Afternoon Town' was still in a state of twilight. But thousands of years have passed, and the dusk of 'Afternoon Town' may have long been shrouded in darkness.

"Mr. 'Fool'."

After Derick explained, his voice a little apprehensive, he asked, "I want to know how to get to Afternoon Town, and I'm willing to pay any price for it!" No, Silver City is willing to pay any price for it! ”

Dareek's expression was extremely excited, and he believed that if the elders of the six-member council knew about this, they would definitely agree! Because in the environment in which Darek lives, the night is the most terrifying existence, once they leave Silver City, they must keep the light shining at all times, even if they are lost for a short time, the interval cannot exceed five seconds.

Otherwise, they will completely 'disappear' into the darkness.

Having survived in this environment for thousands of years, Daylight has become a legend for Silver City. And if they can live in daylight again, they are willing to give everything for this light that only has twilight!

"Unfortunately, no."

Klein sighed in his heart, but he still had to maintain the posture of a 'fool' on his face, so he just shook his head calmly:

"As I said before, this method is only suitable for Mr. 'Lover'."

Derrick froze in place, and after a while, he sat back down.

But at the same time, a question also surfaced in the minds of others.

Why is it only for Ember?

PS: How many people have watched Harvest Night, deducting 1 to make me well.

PS: Explain the problem of pulling people.

First of all, before the gram did not become extraordinary, it was possible to pull two, the righteous and the upside-down hanged man.

Ordinary people: 2 places and 2 members.

Secondly, starting from the original text:

Volume I, Chapter 77:

Moreover, after becoming a "soothsayer" and gaining extraordinary powers, Klein also realized that he had a better grasp of that mysterious space, for example, he could pull another member to join the party.

At this time, Ke Yi had just become extraordinary.

Sequence 9: 3 places and 2 members.

Volume II, Chapter 13:

"But there are certain limitations, with my current strength, at most one more connection."

At this time, Ke Yi had just been promoted to Sequence 8, and it had not been long after he arrived in Beckland. At that time, Hugh had already been pulled above the gray mist, but she was not allowed to participate in the tarot meeting, and she still needed to be 'tested', and another one could be pulled at this time.

Sequence 8: 5 places and 4 members.

Volume II, Chapter 241:

"Counting the ones that were not burdened before, I can roughly bring in four new members, but there is no goal for the time being."

At this time, counting the existing justice, the hanged man, the sun, the magician, and Hugh, who had pulled but not completely pulled, there were already five people.

Sequence 6: 9 places and 5 members.

Summary: The squid is also calculated in strict accordance with the fact that each sequence can increase by 2 places, and both promotion and full digestion potions can be increased by one.
