Above the gray mist, inside the ancient palace.

Crane sat in the high-backed chair that belonged to the Fool, with only Ember on either side of the mottled table.

As for the other members, they had already left the moment the meeting was over, not even the doppelganger of 'The World'.

Quietly, the 'darkness' dived into the gray mist, and the gray mist, which was already at a disadvantage under the scorching flames, was enveloped by the 'darkness' in an instant. The infinite galaxy in the gray mist, as well as the crimson stars, were hidden one after another.

But this situation did not last long, and the gray fog that had been gradually compressed refilled the area shrouded in darkness, not because the darkness was dispelled by the gray fog, but because the 'darkness' had condensed into a slender figure wearing a black robe and hood, which appeared in the ancient palace.

He walked slowly to the long dappled table, pulled out the high chair that belonged to Miss 'Justice' and sat down.

The arrival of 'darkness' seemed to be a signal, and more and more beings appeared in the ancient palace one after another.

The gray mist silently twisted, becoming like a servant welcoming the emperor's return, greeting the middle-aged man in pitch-black armor, covered with a cloak of the same color, wearing a black crown inlaid with various gems, and holding a scepter.

Countless gorgeous flowers grew on the 'ground', rendering the ancient palace above the spirit realm into a garden. And from the garden, a petite girl with dazzling blond hair quietly appeared, smiling and groaning towards the embers, wanting to sit beside him.

But suddenly, the space in front of her suddenly 'opened' indifferent brass-colored eyes. At the same time, an invisible darkness swept over the blonde girl. When she reappeared, she was already in the position of Miss 'Magician'.

Next to her, a lady in a black robe sat elegantly in Miss Judgment's seat.

The middle-aged man with the crown on his head sat in the position of the 'Hanged Man' and placed the scepter he had been holding in his hand on the long mottled table.

As they appeared, more and more figures appeared on the gray mist one by one, but they all sat at the end of the long bronze table, maintaining a few seats of distance from the people who had arrived before.

This is the real pre-divine meeting, but the pressure is not ordinary! …… Crane muttered silently, he was only familiar with Ember, and had very little contact with the others, and for the angels they brought, except for Bernadette, there was basically no contact.

And now, Klein has to preside over this meeting with the participation of four true gods as the 'master', and he himself is only a sequence 1 who has just been promoted, how can there be no pressure?

Klein muttered in his heart, and did not speak rashly, but quietly looked at the 'gods' brought by these people.

The Goddess of the Night was not present in person, as she was busy digesting the uniqueness of the two paths, the 'God of Death' and the 'God of War'. This means that He needs to contend with the remnants of the 'original' will in both paths at the same time, and it will be difficult to distract him for a short time.

So in his place came the lady in the black robe, according to Klein's understanding of the Night Church, this should be the Night Church's Pope Irina, who is usually called a saint within the Night Church, and appears as the spokesperson of the Night Goddess in reality many times, and she is also the only existence present who did not bring other angels to this tarot meeting.

And judging from the means she just had, she may not only represent the Goddess of the Night, but also use part of the power of the Goddess of the Night.

At the same time, it's hard not to associate her name with Klein - it's the same name as the Saintess Irina from Dark Souls 3.

If the Pope of the Church of the Night is the Holy Maiden Irina, then who is the Goddess of the Night?

Klein didn't think about it, because neither the occasion nor the practice allowed it.

He turned to look at the three ladies brought by Mother Earth, all of them richly dressed and graceful, but their hair colors were very different, and they were easy to distinguish, one with silver hair, one with long sky blue hair, and one with long fiery red hair.

The silver-haired lady should be Ornia, the beauty god of the blood clan, and the characteristics of silver hair should not be too obvious.

The hair color characteristics of the latter two do not match those of Pope Roland of the Mother Earth God Church, and they should be two of the three dukes of the Blood Clan. Emlyn White also mentioned that among the three dukes of the blood clan, except for Duke Olmer, the other two are women, one is named Alina and the other is called Alyssa, and the name seems to be sisters.

In the Second Age, Alyssa is the goddess of life, and Alina is the goddess of love.

These two are also the oldest of the native angels and gods, even older than the King of Angels and most of the gods under the ancient sun god. After all, the Bloodline flourished in the early and middle Second Age, when the ancient sun god had not yet been born.

It wasn't until the late Second Age, when Lilith, the ancestor of the Bloodline, 'fell', that the ancient sun god first appeared in history.

The god of knowledge and wisdom also brought two ladies, two ladies with a human upper body and a spider on the lower body, one a white spider and the other a red spider. Apparently, they are the witch sisters from Dark Souls 1, the Red Spider Kragg, and the game's unnamed White Spider.

After all, the characteristics of these two are too obvious, and it is difficult for Klein to recognize them.

The reason why their lower bodies are spiders is due to the erosion and infection of uncontrolled chaotic flames. Similarly, the witch's only son, who is even worse than the two sisters, was infected by chaos at birth, so he continued to fester.

One of the witch sisters created a ring to ease his festering, and while escaping from the hotbed of chaos, his finger with the ring festered and fell off, turning into a hundred-legged demon, and he himself became a creature that continued to fester, guarding the grave of the witch sister who led him away.

In contrast, the Red Spider sisters are lucky.

Since the identity of the witch sisters is so clear, the identity of the god of knowledge and wisdom is naturally self-evident, the witch Krana.

Compared to these three, Russell is a little shabby, and he only brought one angel with him, that is, his daughter Bernadette. But this can't be helped, compared to other true gods, Russell just lacks foundation.

After all, Russell was polluted long before he became a god, and the first thing he did after becoming a god was to commit suicide, and he had no time to develop his followers and followers to God. Even Bernadette being able to become an angel has little to do with Russell itself.

If Bernadette hadn't taken the initiative to save face for his old father, then Russell would probably have to come to the banquet alone.

Of course, Russell's other son, Bonova Gustav, is also an angel, but this son is a believer in the Lord of Steam, and his relationship with Russell is not strange, at least destined to be hostile.

This tarot meeting was also very different from the previous ones, because there were four true gods or their representatives in attendance, as well as nearly ten angels...... Such a lineup is not luxurious, but Klein faintly regretted it, knowing that he should have brought a few people to support the scene - after all, although the 'fool' is not a true god, he has many angels!

'Mr. Men', Grossell, Miss Courier, Mr. Azik, and the newborn snake ...... Well, although these few people can support the scene by bringing a few of them up, most of them can't be brought up, otherwise they will be easy to be exposed, and Klein has not been notified in advance, so he can only deal with this somewhat embarrassing scene alone - presiding over the meeting as a master in front of several true gods, normal people will be worried in their hearts.

Perhaps seeing the embarrassment of his fellow countryman, Russell the Great tapped the table and said:

"Since everyone doesn't speak, let me start the way."

"I need the uniqueness of the Inquisitor's path, which of you has a clue?"

Since the fall of the Eternal Sun, the Cult of the Eternal Sun has fallen apart, and the Church of Steam has become the only Orthodox sect of Intis. Now that Russell has the help of the Steam Church, there will be no more obstacles to rebuilding the Intis Empire.

Of course, the top brass of the Republic of Intis will definitely oppose it vigorously, and it will be light to drag it back, and even stab it in the back - Russell knows very well that it is impossible to do a good job with these worms, so he has rich experience in political struggles and does not mind using the most simple way to silence these people forever.

In addition, the remaining uniqueness and extraordinary characteristics of the Black Emperor's path had all been gathered in Russell's hands when he was resurrected, and these extraordinary characteristics belonged to him, so he didn't need to 'digest' them again, he only lacked enough faith now.

Under the premise that Intis's domestic situation is very good, he re-establishes Intis's belief in the 'Black Emperor', and then it is only a matter of time before he is promoted to Sequence 0. And Russell has always been used to planning ahead, so he needs to find the uniqueness and extraordinary characteristics of the Inquisitor's path in advance.

The extraordinary trait is easy to solve, and the royal family of Rune and the royal family of Fenerport each have a copy of Sequence 1, which is a big deal to snatch directly from them.

But uniqueness is not easy to do, because the whereabouts of uniqueness have always been a mystery.

Of course, this 'mystery' is only for ordinary people, and in the eyes of these true gods, there are very few secrets in this world.

The Holy Maiden Irina whispered:

"The God of War Church has a seal '0-02', which should be the uniqueness of the activation of the 'Inquisitor' path."

Her voice wasn't loud, and it even sounded a little soft and weak.

"What do I have to pay?" Russell's face was grim and he immediately asked.

He knew they were allies now, but even allies didn't help for no reason. If you want to get something, you have to give something.

Irina continued:

"'0-02' is not in the hands of the Night Church."

"The Patriarch of the Church of the God of War, Larion, fled on the day of the fall of the God of War and took the seal '0-02' with him."

"In addition, he destroyed all of the '0' seal data before escaping, so we don't know how activated this seal is."

Russell frowned slightly, this is a bit of trouble.

Larion, as the Patriarch of the Church of the God of War, is necessarily the angel of Sequence 2.

At that time, the Night Church had just begun to take over the Church of the God of War, and although taking over these seals would certainly be regarded as the primary goal, ordinary Extraordinary could not stop it in the face of an Angel who escaped from Sequence 2 with a unique path to the Inquisitor.

What's more, since Larion chose to flee on the day of the fall of the God of War, the Night Church may not have time to react at all.

Moreover, Lalion also destroyed the information before fleeing, and this caution naturally adds uncertainty to the tracking.

This is because the major churches will only give each other the number of '0' and '1' seals.

Even within the major churches, the information of the '0' level seal is strictly confidential, and as a high-level person, it is often only possible to access the relevant information when he is in charge of a certain '0' level seal, and there is a high probability that the corresponding memory will be erased afterwards...... On the one hand, this is to prevent the leakage of important information, and on the other hand, for many '0' seals, just knowing them can be dangerous, or make the seal invalid......

Just as Russell now knows that '0-02' is the uniqueness of the Inquisitor's path, but he can't determine the specific degree of activation and thus the degree of danger.

Because if the 'activation' level of '0-02' is high enough, it is even possible to reach the level of 'hidden' sage!

Then it must be done by the true God Himself to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

But Russell is still a certain distance from the level of the true god.

"He has now left Fusak, and the target is likely to be the kingdom of Rune, and Arianna is tracking him. If you can help catch Him, '0-02' can be used as a reward. ”

The voice of the Holy Maiden Irina sounded soft and weak, but there was not the slightest hesitation in her words, and it was clear that she had extremely high decision-making power over the actions of the Night Church.

Lilith, the mother goddess of the earth, suddenly chuckled, and in the puzzled eyes of the others, she smiled and groaned:

"I have to warn you that the activation of '0-02' is likely to be influenced by the 'Country of Disorder'."

Russell's brow furrowed deeper, and that would be more troublesome!

The news that essentia has returned to reality is basically sensed by the true gods.

Like Russell, he can also sense the general orientation of the 'Disordered Nation', which is also the embodiment of the law of extraordinary characteristics convergence.

And if the reason why '0-02' is activated is due to the influence of 'Disordered Country', then '0-02' is to become the second Hidden Sage'. This also means that even if Larian fled with '0-02' at the beginning, the rank of '0-02' is already above Laleon, and coupled with the influence of 'Country of Disorder', the current Laleon is likely to be a puppet of '0-02'!

And once Larion returns directly to the 'country of disorder' with '0-02', it is almost impossible for Russell to have another chance to get this uniqueness!

So, you have to act fast!
