Chapter 371: You're Confused

As Justice' and the others left, silence returned to the gray mist, as if the previous gathering was just a phantom. Crane flexed his finger and tapped the edge of the mottled table, revealing the partially completed Word of the Fool sacrificed by Miss 'The Magician'.

In an indescribable freeze, Crane stared at the cover of the book with a solemn expression.

The five big characters of "The Fool's Sacred Words" made Klein's heart a little tangled.

In all fairness, he didn't want his church's holy book to be such a name, whether it was called "The Book of Fools" or "The Book of Fools", he could accept it, but the name "The Book of Words" really made Klein's heart a little resistant.

But if he asked Miss 'Magician' and others to change their names for just three words, it would really damage the majesty of Mr. 'Fool'.

But as soon as he saw the three words of "Sacred Words", Klein's thinking couldn't help but start diverging:

"The emperor had twenty sons, and half of them betrayed him."

"There will be twenty-two positions in the tarot, and if you remove me and my vest, it will be exactly twenty ......"

"No, it won't, it's just a coincidence, well, just a coincidence."

The corners of Klein's mouth twitched slightly, comforting himself, and he immediately forcibly restrained his divergent thoughts.

——

August 14th.

The Republic of Intis and the Vorsac Empire secretly reached an agreement that the Intersea Fleet of Intis and the remnants of the Conquest Fleet of Fosak joined forces to form a combined fleet to fight against the Intersea Fleet of the Kingdom of Rune.

This wiped out the original advantage of the Maritime Fleet of the Kingdom of Rune, and once again returned to the stage of passive defense.

August 15th.

Under the organization of the 'Hermit' lady, the members of the Tarot Society went on another group tour. This time the tour took place in the Hornachis Mountains, and as a ticket to the visit, a 'war bishop' affiliated with the Republic of Antis paid with his life.

August 25th.

The Kingdom of Fenerport and the Republic of Intis Misty Sea Fleet form a combined fleet across the Tempest Sea in an attempt to bombard the harbor of Desy Bay. However, on the way, they encountered the ironclad fleet patrolling the vicinity of the Rune Kingdom, and a fierce naval battle broke out between the two sides, resulting in losses to each other.

August 28th.

The combined forces of Intis and Fursack launched a large-scale landing on Constance, and a fierce naval battle broke out between the fleets of the two countries.

September 3.

Under the cover of the Combined Fleet, the combined forces of Forsack and Intis successfully captured a port in West Villas, and the Intersea Fleet and the Rune Army fought fiercely around the port for a week, but they were never able to recapture the port, and the combined forces of Forsak and Intis successfully gained a foothold.

September 7.

A key point in the Hornachis Mountains defensive line was breached by Intis, and the battle intensified.

September 12th.

During the half-month landing operation, Intis and Fersak successfully captured the Constanton beachhead, and used it to establish a counterattack base with a depth of 17 kilometers, and the Kingdom of Rune was forced to go on the defensive, and Fersak and Intis quickly expanded their success, and the coalition landing force reached 500,000 people.

September 15th.

The combined forces of Intis and Fursack launched an attack on the city of Conston, and the Kingdom of Rune urgently increased its troops.

——

Inside the luxury villa of the Hall family in Beckland, Queens.

Audrey sat down at the dresser, remembering what had happened recently, and couldn't help but purse her lips with mixed feelings.

In the past month, the tide of war has become more and more unfavorable for the Kingdom of Rune.

The heavy losses of the conquering fleet forced Fersak to make concessions in the negotiations with Intis, but this did not discourage the Fersaks from invading, but instead promoted cooperation between the two countries. It is conceivable that Intis has gained a huge advantage in the negotiations with Fusak, which is why he will so simply send the entire Intersea Fleet to fight with Fusak.

The direction of the Sunia Sea is okay, and the fleets of Fursack, Intis, and Fenerport at sea are suppressed by several ironclad fleets of Rune, and they can only barely maneuver around to protect the supply lines at sea.

In the Amanda Mountains, supported by the Church of the Night, the Two-Headed Giants of Vrsack were never able to break through any of the fortresses, and the line remained solid.

Only the coastal defense line has gradually fallen under the onslaught of Intis and Fursac. Perhaps in less than a month, Constance will fall, even in the Hornachis Mountains.

By then, Fursack and Intis would have been able to march straight in, and while capturing West Velas and Mahai, they would advance all the way southeast to join forces in the Beckland region.

And once Beckland also falls under the attack of the combined forces of the two countries, the consequences are unimaginable!

In order to stop this, they organized a number of assassinations against the top of Intis and Fusak over the past month, but most of these operations ended in failure, and only two of the more than ten assassination attempts were successful.

Because the high-level leaders of the two countries have already taken precautions, and each side is followed by a plurality of demigods in different ways.

This also means that unless the Tarot Society can kill all these demigods at the same time, as long as any of them have the opportunity to ask the angel for help, the assassination of the Tarot Society will inevitably end in failure.

In fact, Audrey knew in her heart that what they could do was close to the limit.

No matter how hard they tried, all they could do was hunt down a few more demigods, but that would make a difference to the tide of the battle. Because the war will not end until both countries have exhausted their national strength.

Only the war of gods can change all this.

And whether the divine war will break out or not will not change with their will......

Audrey was inevitably a little frustrated, but that didn't mean she had given up trying.

Audrey's turquoise eyes flickered for a moment, and she thought uncontrollably:

"The food smuggled by the 'Hermit' lady has almost been consumed, and if I want to get more food, I can only go to the Fenerport Kingdom in person and talk to the merchants who sell the grain......"

Although it is said to be a talk, it is not a literal talk.

For higher profits, those merchants wouldn't mind risking treason and selling grain to the kingdom of Rune. But the selling price will definitely not be the lowest price, but will be doubled, or even several times, on the basis of the original price.

This is not surprising, after all, these businessmen are profit-seeking by nature. If the profits weren't high enough, why would they take the risk of doing such a thing? If the merchants had gone too far, the price of the grain she had smuggled from the kingdom of Fenerport might have been higher than the price of the food she had bought at home.

In this case, Audrey knew very well that the effect of the negotiations would be very limited.

So she knows what Ms. 'Hermit' is referring to as 'talking', and uses the extraordinary ability of the 'audience' approach to talk. With the strength of a demigod, it is completely possible to hypnotize those grain merchants and buy them at a lower price.

But this is also risky, because the kingdom of Fenerport will definitely send someone to monitor these grain merchants. It's fine to smuggle a small amount of grain, but if there are too many 'controlled' grain merchants and the scale is too large, it will inevitably cause alarm in the church and the authorities, and the officials may send demigods to investigate it......

However, she can rent 'Lemanno's Travel Notes' from Miss 'Magician', and she has the extraordinary ability of 'Travel' in her hands, so she doesn't have to worry about getting caught even if she is discovered.

The witch's voice sounded in her ears:

"You seem to be bothered?"

Audrey came back to her senses, looked sideways at the lady who suddenly appeared in the room, wearing a long black dress, and calling herself a 'jealous witch', and said in a complicated tone:

"Kalula, in your world, in Rodland, has there ever been a war like this?"

Calula looked at the girl with some surprise, her voice became softer, and she said softly:

"You've probably learned about it in your dreams, haven't you?"

"There will only be more wars in Rodland than in this world, and on a larger scale."

"The Sun King led his knights in a dragon-hunting war, ending the reign of the Immortal Dragons. The Elder Dragons perished, leaving only a few remnants of creatures with Elder Dragon's bloodline......"

"The Overlord Vonnier has also conquered all countries and walked through the mountains of corpses and the sea of blood. Trust me, he has done more than you can imagine. ”

"After all, the dream world is only a small fragment, not enough to depict that huge world."

"Rodland is the land of the gods, but that's not all there is to the world. Beyond Rodland there is Baledel, Dolan Gureg......"

"And no matter what the world is, human beings are the same creatures."

"No matter what their nature is, no matter what threat they face, conflict cannot be avoided, and war cannot be avoided."

"So, you don't need to be lost about it......"

"No, I'm not confused."

Audrey blinked and whispered.

She's not confused, she just needs to talk. But it's clear that Kalula isn't a good person to talk to.

Calula's expression stiffened slightly, and she immediately straightened her face and said word by word:

"No, you're confused right now!"

"I'm the 'Dream Weaver.'"

Audrey said seriously: "I know I'm not confused. ”

A demigod in the 'spectator' path can peer into a person's heart through the changes on the island of the mind. In the same way, they can also peek into their own hearts, and they can face up to their every thought, and correct possible mistakes and weaknesses from it.

So even if it is out of control and polluted, it is only some kind of mental illness for the 'audience' approach, which is completely curable.

Under such a premise, how could Audrey not know her own thoughts?

She is not confused, nor does she regret her choice, but her inner emotions occasionally become uncontrollable and become sentimental.

Audrey was a little helpless, she just felt it, hoping that she could talk to Carlula.

But she has become a 'dream weaver', and it seems that even Calulah can't easily see through her heart. Of course, this is also the reason why Calulah did not use extraordinary abilities, and it seems that Calulah does not like the feeling of using extraordinary abilities to spy on others, so she has been avoiding using abilities as much as possible.

Well, Audrey doesn't like it either.

After going through so many things, she understands more and more a truth:

Demigods in the realm of the mind must know how to restrain themselves and respect others.

On the premise that you can usually interpret the true thoughts of others from body language, facial expressions, and emotional fluctuations, if you are not satisfied, you are unusually greedy to explore the hearts of others, digging out privacy and secrets, then you may eventually backfire on yourself.

It's a simple truth:

Everyone will have some dark and bad thoughts to a greater or lesser extent, but they are well controlled and do not let them affect their own behavior, in this case, if the demigods in the spiritual realm are still obsessed with digging these thoughts and digging out the ugly parts under the mask, they will be very easily disappointed in human nature, infected by all kinds of negative consciousness, and gradually go crazy without knowing it.

This is one of the reasons why the 'audience' can 'comfort' itself and treat the corresponding psychological problems, but it is still easy to be perverted or crazy.

They are both safe and dangerous.

Therefore, Audrey's code of conduct for herself is to only observe and 'mind-read' acquaintances, try not to dream, and have no restrictions on strangers to dream, and not to enter everyone's mental world unless necessary.

Calula is more rigorous, omitting even the process of mind reading, and most of the time only making the most superficial observations.

This is something Audrey can't do, not because she wants to 'read minds', simply because it's become instinctive for her. Just as a human being can't stop breathing, she can't stop 'mind reading' now.

Calula is able to do it because she is an angel and Audrey is just a Sequence 3 'Dream Weaver'.

However, even when Audrey reiterates that she is not confused, Calula still says seriously:

"That's because you're so lost that you don't know how lost you are."

"Huh?"

Audrey tilted her head, so, is Calula angry?

Because it was rare to want to comfort her, but it turned out that she didn't seem to need comfort, so she was angry?

Audrey was a little weird, because judging by her experience with Calula.

Calula is not the type to comfort others, on the contrary, she loves to play tricks on others.

So, why did she suddenly want to comfort herself? Is it because the 'confusion' she showed aroused the softness in her heart and reminded her of the warm memories of the past? When Calula was confused, there may have been someone else who comforted her as gently as she does now, and brought her out of her confused predicament. That's why Calula is touching the scene and trying to imitate her own immediate vigilance to comfort her, right?

Because of his own experience, he evoked sympathy, so he tried to comfort her.

As a result, this comfort was ruthlessly rejected, and even seemed to the other party to be a bit of a 'mockery'......

Well, if you put yourself in their shoes, even if it is Audrey, I am afraid that I will be a little dissatisfied.

But even if that's the case, you won't be angry, right?

Calulah is the angel of Sequence 2, is it really that easy to get angry?

Wouldn't it, wouldn't it?!

The instinct of the 'Dream Weaver' made Audrey subconsciously analyze the truth of the matter, and couldn't help but whisper in her heart.

PS: Recently, I looked at the introduction of the Black Soul item, and suddenly I found something again.

For example, the salary king firewood:

[Prince Losric's remaining salary.]

If the king refuses to return to the throne, then just get the firewood back.

Lothric's excessive pursuit of the successor of the lineage,

In the end, he finally deviated from common sense, and his actions also degenerated to the point where it was difficult to reach the goal.

It is enough to prove that spreading fire is a cursed path. 】

Princess Lothric is the princess of the sun, there's no doubt about it.

And the person she originally married was the 'Vulcan' Fran, and there is a secret theory that the Vulcan God Fran died in the war to seal the overlord Warnier.

The person who succeeded to the throne of Los Ric was the 'Demon King' Osroes.

Judging from the 'excessive pursuit of the successor of the lineage' in the text, the 'Demon King' Osroes is likely to be the son of the 'Vulcan' Fran and the Sun Princess, and after the death of the 'Vulcan', the Demon King inherited his father's throne, and at the same time married his mother in order to ensure the continuation of the 'Connecting Bloodline'.

The king of Lo Trick has been changing, but the princess of Lo Lick has always been the same.

In addition to this, I don't remember where I saw the theory that the second prince Lothric is actually the son of the eldest prince Lorian and the sun princess. Well, it sounds outrageous, but it's actually quite reasonable.
