Chapter 145: Another Tarot Meeting
Monday, December 20.
At 2:45 p.m., Klein entered the bathroom with the newspaper and actively prepared for the week's tarot gathering.
Three o'clock.
A crimson and illusory light rose, and the members of the Tarot Society appeared on either side of the long bronze table one by one.
'Justice' Audrey stood up, looked at the top of the bronze table, lifted the hem of her skirt, and bowed:
"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool! Good afternoon, Mr. Lovers! Good afternoon......"
Her brisk and cheerful voice broke the eternal silence above the gray mist, and Miss 'Justice''s greetings had become the routine of the Tarot Society, and no one would try to interrupt her at this time.
After Audrey greeted the members of the Tarot Society, she looked at the figure shrouded in gray mist and said:
"Dear Mr. Fool, I have obtained three new pages of Rosell's diary."
Audrey's mood soon brightened, because Miss Isrant had sent the diaries to her door. She knew that she was interested in Russell the Great's diary, so in order to further woo her to join the Psychological Alchemy Society, she would take the initiative to bring some diaries every time she 'went to class'.
'Magician' Furth also got up and saluted slightly, and said:
"Mr. Fool, I have taken down three more pages of Russell's diary."
"Not bad."
Klein whispered in his heart that the current Miss 'Magician' is backed by the Abraham family, and with the connections and financial resources of the Abraham family branch around the world, it is easier to collect Russell's diary than Miss Audrey.
In almost every Tarot meeting in the past few weeks, Miss 'Magician' and Miss 'Judgment' have steadily contributed a total of six pages of Russell's Diary - in fact, Crane suspects that she has more journals, and the reason why she only contributes three pages is because she is only Sequence 8 and can only remember three pages.
"What do you want?" Crane asked with a smile.
Audrey replied sincerely:
"It's the reward you paid for answering my question, okay?"
Forr thought for a moment and asked:
"'Mr. Fool', I hope to be able to accumulate the rewards."
Klein chuckled and nodded nonchalantly:
"Yes."
The two quickly produced a total of six pages of diaries and passed them on to Mr. 'The Fool'.
Klein took it and saw that on the first page it was written:
"On April 1st, I was a little skeptical that today was April Fool's Day, but when I thought about it, I found that there is no April Fool's Day in this world!"
What did the Emperor discover?
Klein's eyes moved slightly, and he continued to look down:
"Like I said before, there are at least five painting worlds in this world! The Church of Knowledge, the Church of the Storm, the Church of the Sun, the Church of Mother Earth God, and the cult Aurora are each there, and according to my latest information, all five of these painting worlds are painted by the blood of a powerful god! ”
"And I suspect that this 'mighty god' is the creator that the organization believes in!"
Creator?!
Crane's expression changed slightly, and he forcibly suppressed his expression and continued to look down:
"In ancient times, there was a great war against the Creator! It is likely that the four existing Orthodox Churches and the Aurora Society were all involved, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why they were each able to get a painting world - it was probably their trophy. ”
This means that at least five gods acted against the Creator at the same time, and ultimately led to His downfall. In addition to this, I seriously suspect that the Night Church also retains a picture world, and it is very likely that it is the 'original world'. ”
"The painting of the painting world is obviously related to the 'black soul', and the 'painters' of the five painting worlds must also be from the 'original world'. And if you think about it this way, the Church of the Night is probably the 'culprit' that organized other gods to besiege the Creator! ”
"But this doesn't explain another problem, that is, why are the Church of Knowledge, the Church of the Storm, and the Church of the Sun hostile to each other, and the three major churches are hostile to the Aurora Society at the same time, and in turn the Aurora Society is also hostile to these three churches at the same time, but the Night Church and the Earth Mother God Church can stay out of it, is it because of gender?"
"Well, just kidding, it's definitely not because of such a superficial gender. Their hostility to each other is most likely due to a conflict of interest, but I have not been able to find the key to their conflict of interest for the time being. After all, these are all true gods, Sequence 0 at the apex of the Extraordinary, what is the conflict of interest that makes them hostile to each other? Hiss! We don't know, and we don't dare to ask. ”
This page of the diary ended, but Crane's mood did not calm down, because Russell clearly knew something terrible. But he didn't dare to write it down, even in Chinese that no one else could understand!
And what he discovered, Klein can also guess - Russell once speculated on the truth of the law of conservation of extraordinary characteristics, suspecting that all extraordinary properties come from only the original Creator, so they will not increase, and the total amount is fixed and assumed to be true, does this indicate that the Creator of everything encompasses everything, feminine, masculine, and neutral are one?
If this is the case, it means that all extraordinary characteristics and uniqueness originate from the Creator. The rebellion of the gods is precisely to rob the Creator of extraordinary characteristics and uniqueness, and only then can they become the true 'Sequence 0'!
As for the reason why the gods are hostile to each other, it is likely that if they want to become the next 'Creator', they must rob each other of their uniqueness and extraordinary characteristics!
As for why the Church of the Night and the Church of Mother Earth God were able to stay out of the matter, Klein also had no answer.
However, compared to Russell the Great, Klein also knew some information that Russell did not know:
For example, the creator and the ancient creator of the Godforsaken Lands are probably not the same person, and the Amun family claims to be descendants of the ancient sun god, and the information he obtained from the divination of the Dark Cross - the man who wore the cross and said, "Let there be light", the phrase "let there be light" is so strong that it is really hard not to make Klein suspicious.
But he didn't dare to think about it any longer, but looked through the rest of the diary as if it were a cover.
These diaries are far less frightening than the previous ones, but they also reveal some secrets that are difficult for ordinary people to know, such as:
"On June 5th, I got an ancient book, which actually mentioned the name of the original witch, not the honorable one!"
"His name is Chick, it's a male name."
"This ancient book is fake, right?"
Chick? Could it be that the "original witch" was also a man before? Crane almost lifted his hand to pinch his chin. This corroborates Russell's speculation about 'extraordinary properties', and maybe the primordial witch was also involved in the siege against the Creator?
Klein gathered his thoughts, looked at the 'justice', 'lovers' and others and smiled:
"You can get started."
'Justice' Audrey raised her hand slightly, and said without concealment:
"My request is the same as before, the complete pituitary gland of the young mind dragon, or 60 milliliters of spinal fluid of the black hunting monitor lizard, and the fruit of the psychedelic bell tree."
After saying that, 'Justice' turned her gaze to Forth, knowing that the other party had her back to the Abrahamic family. So at the Tarot meeting, Foirth was the most likely to help her get these materials.
"I don't have a clue, but I'll keep an eye out for you."
Furth shook her head, she had asked the Abraham family for help, and the other party said that she would do her best to use her phone. But after all, the Abraham family has declined, and the glory is no more, and there are many extraordinary items in the door path, but the extraordinary items in other ways are not in the scope of their collection.
"I have a clue to the psychedelic bell tree."
The 'Hanged Man' pretended to be silent for two seconds, and then said, "However, I won't be able to help you get the materials in the near future, so you may have to wait a while." ”
"It's okay, I'm not in a hurry."
Audrey smiled lightly, she had only become a psychiatrist for a short time, and there was still a long time before the potion was consumed.
Crane wanted to remind Audrey not to worry, after all, Ember had given him the Darkless Cross as a reward, and Ember would have to trouble Herwin Lambis sooner or later. Klein didn't think Herwin Lambis would be able to get away with it, which meant that Ember could easily get a copy of Sequence 4's extraordinary properties.
Crane, on the other hand, can use the Darkcross to help Miss Audrey isolate the Sequence 5 and Sequence 6 traits she needs for free - as long as the remaining Sequence 7 through Sequence 9 traits are used as a reward.
But this is obviously not for the 'fool', so he cannot open his mouth. This made Klein secretly think about how to reasonably hand over the Darkless Cross to the 'world' and let the 'world' open this mouth.
This is not difficult, after all, the identity of the 'world' has been recognized as the family of Mr. 'Fool'. And as a 'fool', it makes sense for him to give his dependents one or two magical items, right?
"Mr. Lover."
Seeing that no one else was speaking, the Hanged Man turned his gaze to Ember and said, "I wish I could get the potion recipe for Sailor's Pathway Sequence 5 'Sea Singer'." ”
Alger had actually been promoted to the Windlord more than a month ago, and had originally planned to ask Ember for the Sequence 5 potion recipe as soon as possible, but by that time Ember had already gone to the Godforsaken Lands, which also forced him to put his plans on hold for the time being. And now that Ember has returned, he is naturally the first to make a trade request.
"Yes."
Ember bowed slightly, and said, "Next time the Tarot meets, I'll find a way to get the potion recipe and give it to you." ”
"Thank you."
The 'Hanged Man' breathed a sigh of relief, he had no doubts about Mr. Lovers' ability to obtain potion recipes.
In the past month or so, he has not completely pinned his hopes on his lover, but has been trying to obtain the formula of "Ocean Singer" through his own channels and transactions within the Tarot Club, but every time it has been in vain.
After all, this belongs to Sequence 5, which is the closest level to a demigod, and the corresponding formula has a price and no market, even if you have a lot of money and are willing to pay a lot of premium, it is difficult to buy.
Normally, joining the corresponding church or organization is the most effective way to obtain a similar recipe. However, as a member of the Church of the Storm, Alger could not rely on this avenue, because of certain secrets, he had to hide his strength in exchange for freedom of movement and weak surveillance.
After a brief silence, the 'Hanged Man' looked thoughtfully at Miss 'Justice':
"I want to know the details of Duke Negan's assassination and the political situation in Beckland after the incident, what do you need in return?"
Why am you asking me? Audrey was a little confused, but quickly figured out what Mr. 'Hanged Man' meant.
As someone close to the Storm Church, he should have been fully aware of the specifics of this case. But what he wanted to know was the organization or force behind the 'Apostle of Desire', but it was not good to consult Mr. 'Fool' directly, thinking that it was too abrupt and questioning, so he went around in circles and opened the topic by asking me.
Thinking about this, Audrey hooked the corners of her mouth slightly and said:
"No, we don't need to be paid, and we don't need to exchange common sense information about our respective regions for free, isn't that the purpose of our Tarot Society?"
Only in this way can our Tarot Club develop and grow rapidly! She thought with a sense of ownership.
"Your words put me to shame."
The 'upside-down hangman' was stunned for two seconds, pressed his hand to his chest, and leaned slightly into the road.
Audrey pursed her lips and considered her words:
"With the help of a special scene, the Apostle of Desire completed the assassination of Duke Negan with his ability to detonate intense emotions and desires, and at the cost of serious injuries, he successfully broke through and dived into the sewers, and was finally killed by Mr. 'Fool''s family."
"And Mr. 'Fool' is aiming for the organization that directs the 'Apostles of Desire.'"
At the same time, the death of Duke Negan split the House of Lords. Although his eldest son was about to inherit the title and become a member of the House of Lords, his prestige was not enough to quell the dispute. Nearly a dozen members of the House of Lords jointly proposed that the newly knighted nobles also have the opportunity to get fixed seats. To put it simply, those who have been made nobles through political donations, charitable donations, and the purchase of corresponding land can become members of the House of Lords......"
Although she said she was willing to share some information, she also withheld some key information. For example, the name of the Dusk Hermit Society, such as the Psychological Alchemy Society, is likely to be an affiliated organization of the Dusk Hermit Society.
This not only answers the question of the 'Hanged Man', but also arouses the interest of Mr. 'Hanged Man' to the greatest extent, so that he willingly pays for this answer. As for what kind of remuneration should he pay? Isn't that obvious? The fruit of the psychedelic bell tree, of course!
Klein's expression became a little strange, and it was obvious that he had guessed some of Miss 'Justice''s thoughts, but because of this, he felt a little disobedient: Miss 'Justice' has learned badly, this is simply a deep understanding of the truth that 'free is the most expensive'! Who the hell did you learn this from?
Klein resisted the urge to stroke his forehead, and he didn't have to think about it to know that it must have been done by his lover!
And just as they had guessed, although Alger had a quiet head on his face, he was shocked and excited in his heart. He was tempted to impulsively pay for an answer from Mr. 'Justice' or 'Fool', but he resisted it.
"Mr. 'Lover'!"
'Sun' Derick couldn't wait to raise his hand and asked with some excitement, "I wonder if the place you arrived at when you went to the Godforsaken Land is the Giant Court?" ”
