Chapter Eighty-Nine: Back to Night

Watching the three of them skillfully handle the affairs of the church, Klein couldn't help but feel that this picture was somewhat familiar for a while. It's just that when he was looking at Dunn and the others when he was bored, he noticed that a certain fake poet seemed to be looking at him with a scrutinizing look, which made Crane feel a chuckle in his heart:

Could it be that Leonard recognized me? Impossible?

Speaking of which, how was my previous pension calculated...... Hey, I'm not dead, but the church shouldn't need me to return the 8,000 pounds, right?

Klein, who consciously cheated the pension, suddenly felt a little weak, and by the time the three of them finished dealing with the matter over there, the night was already very dark. He looked at Leonard and the others who came over, and slowly stood up.

"I've kept you waiting." Dunn said to Crane in a deep voice.

Klein shook his head slightly: "It's okay, I'm used to waiting." ”

Klein means waiting for the day when he can reopen his identity and reunite with the people he knows; But Dunn misunderstood what Klein meant, and couldn't help but feel a little admiration in his heart:

"You need to be very patient when you lurk in the Aurora Club and not be discovered." Dunn tapped four times on his chest, revealing a somewhat tired smile. He looked at Klein in front of him and said, "I only salute you on my own behalf. ”

“?” Crane was a little dazed for a moment, and followed Dunn into the carriage on the side of the street. He thought for a moment before he realized what Dunn was referring to.

You don't think I'm having a hard time "lurking" at the Aurora Club, do you......

Oh no, I'm doing pretty well...... Uh, am I a double agent?

Klein smiled awkwardly and pursed the corners of his mouth silently. Fortunately, the mask on his face obscured Klein's expression, making his expression less embarrassing.

Sitting in the car, Klein felt relaxed for the first time in a long time. He looked at the silver rings on the fingers of Dunn and Dalie who were sitting together and the hands they were holding together, and watched Leonard tilt his head slightly from time to time, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart:

That's nice......

No one sacrificed, even in the face of danger, but they were all happy......

That's nice.

……

"Old man, I think this person is a little strange." Leonard again asked Pales in his mind in a strange tone in his heart, and Pales smiled and did not reply much.

He felt the aura of multiple favors from the masked man in front of him, who wandered from time to time.

There was the goddess of the night, the true creator, and a great being he didn't know, and Pales even felt that Amon was trying to leave a favor on him - but Amon didn't succeed, but was driven away by the breath left by the goddess of the night and the true creator.

"Hey, old man, are you talking?" Leonard didn't hear the answer, and urged dissatisfiedly to the Parles in his head. Parles snorted coldly and said to Leonard:

"According to what you said before, he may be the protagonist of this era."

"Also, to respect the elderly, you know? You have to respect the elderly! I'm ...... now."

The last time Pales had seen someone so heavily favored was Russell Gustav, whom he had known when he had fled from Amun. He knew that the "Son of Steam" Russell had built a huge empire and finally ascended to the throne and became the Black Emperor, so what would the person with the favor of the three gods achieve in the end?

Although Pallis didn't know why Amon was harassing the person in front of him, he still felt that this unlucky guy who was watched by Amon would most likely not live long. If he can escape Amon's parasitism, he may have a chance to move up the ranks, but in Pales's opinion, this is unlikely.

Is it so easy to escape being targeted by Amon? Parles thought, scolding in his heart:

How many lives do you have, and you think you can escape from Amun's men?

He thought about it and hid his body a little more hidden.

Ahem, life matters, life matters......

However, Leonard bowed his head in frustration when he heard Pales's words. He remembered what he had said to Klein when he was a sophomore:

"This is the meeting of the two protagonists, and the wheels of fate begin to roll......"

Klein...... We've never been the main characters......

Leonard looked out the window in disappointment, and under Pales's words, he thought of Klein again.

After a long time, when the carriage had slowly stopped, Leonard was still immersed in his own thoughts. Parles saw that Leonard didn't hear Dunn's call, and couldn't help but remind:

"It's time to get off."

Leonard woke up suddenly, looked at Dunn who was looking at him helplessly under the carriage, smiled awkwardly but politely, and rolled over and got out of the carriage. Pales couldn't help but wonder: what did this stupid boy trade his IQ for......

"I'm sorry......" Leonard said to Dunn with a somewhat reluctant smile.

Dunn sighed, patted Leonard on the shoulder, and led the group towards the church. Leonard stood stunned for a moment, then followed Dunn forward.

As he walked, Crane looked around, feeling a little nervous in his heart.

Walking to the back of the church, Dunn knocked lightly on the door and said to the people inside, "Bishop Anthony, the 'Professor' has arrived. Can I come in now? ”

"Please come in."

An old but powerful voice reached Dunn's ears, and Dunn nodded, pushed the door open, and walked in with Crane. Klein looked at Anthony Stevenson, who was standing in front of the window, and was a little surprised:

This old man who sent him the appointment documents before turned out to be the archbishop of the Church of the Night Goddess......

"Ah, we're meeting again, Professor Moriarty."

Anthony said softly to Klein, "No one is paying attention to this place right now, please feel free to take off your mask." Lurking in such a dangerous place as the Aurora will be, you have worked hard. ”

Thinking that he had already changed his costume and asked Mr. A to use flesh and blood magic to help adjust the position of his facial features, Klein suddenly no longer hesitated.

Instead, he took off the plain white mask from his face and hung it around his waist, revealing a face that didn't look like "Crane Moretti" at first glance - for those who knew Crane well, the fine-tuning of his face was enough to make them think that "Sherlock Moriarty" and "Crane Moretti" didn't look alike.

Of course, if you look closely, there is a high probability that Klein will still be exposed. He is not yet a "Faceling" and is not specialized in disguise on his face.

"It's you......" Leonard suddenly remembered the young man he had seen at the banquet earlier - in fact, even in retrospect, his real creator charm jumping face and flame jumping jumping all the way to escape from Amun's men really made Leonard feel explosive.

Why is someone so skillful in escaping?

So it seems that he is only sequence seven...... So how the hell did he single-handedly kill Mr. X? Could it be that he successfully contracted the goddess's "holy relic" in sequence seven?! Leonard's face was more like he had seen a ghost when he thought of this.

Please forgive Leonard's state of mind for exploding, after all, he was helpless by Ince Zangwill's plan at the time, who was still in Sequence 5 at the time, and no one could have imagined that a Sequence Seven could kill Sequence 5 head-on.

Crane was hesitating to put on a monocle in his left eye - the sudden appearance of Amon had left a deep psychological shadow on him. Klein hesitated, but put his monocle on his left eye. He looked up at Leonard, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned:

"Ah, you are the 'poet' of that day, I didn't expect you to be also an extraordinary, and a member of the night watchman."

"So......" Leonard was about to ask, but Anthony Stevenson interrupted Leonard softly and gently, and said to him:

"Ahem, I'll talk about it later, I have something to tell you."

"Oh, I'm sorry......" Leonard blushed a little as he thought of what he had done, and he couldn't help but take two steps back and retreat behind Dunn. Klein nodded lightly, waiting for Anthony's next words:

"Speak, please."

Anthony looked at the four people in front of him, looked at Klein in front of him, and said gently:

"Professor Moriarty, I asked you to come here to tell you about your follow-up arrangements - ahem, you are lurking in the Aurora Society now, can you tell us about what you discovered before this happened?"

It was the Goddess of the Night who asked Archbishop Anthony to send me a document, and he should have some cooperation with the real Creator, and it should be okay for me to talk about these things in the Church of the Night...... Klein cleared his throat, ready to pick out some unimportant information to tell the four:

"As far as I know, the Aurora Society is no longer as casual as it used to be, and their members seem to have regained some sanity."

Klein pondered, "Moreover, now before the action, the Aurora Society will require members to report their applications before they will be approved. This incident seems to be Mr. X's own actions, because when I checked the operatives on the documents, I saw only Mr. X. ”

"Finally, it seems that the Aurora Society is also fighting internally over the issue of behavior, such as Mr. X is the one who is unwilling to give up his previous style."

"It's pretty formal...... How do you do it the same as the church? Leonard muttered to himself.

It's just that he thinks that only he can hear his voice, but in fact, Anthony, who is the third sequence, can hear it clearly. Anthony Stevenson tilted his head slightly and glanced at Leonard, as if to find out how the kid got into Sequence Six.

He coughed, "I see." ”

"Professor Moriarty, then you go ahead with your mission and don't worry about the situation on the Church's side." A smile appeared on Anthony's face, and he instructed Klein: "It is not convenient for you to collect your salary as an extraordinary person during the mission, I will exchange it for the merits you have accumulated in the church, and you can directly exchange it for your subsequent potions in the future." ”

"Of course, this mission will also help you convert it into a meritorious service."

"Moreover, you are now in Dunn's team, and you can contact him directly if it is inconvenient for you in the future."

Klein nodded, "Thank you, Bishop Anthony." ”

"It's fine." Anthony Stevenson lightly tapped four times on his chest, drawing a "Crimson Moon" pattern. He whispered to Crane in front of him:

"May the Goddess bless you on your way forward."

Crane and the others were also bathed in the moonlight, silently drawing a crimson moon on their chests.

……

"Oh? Glerint wants a cane-like weapon? This was beyond my thoughts, and he was finally starting to improve. ”

Gao Wei tapped the ground with his cane and said to his own body in the starry sky. He raised his eyebrows and said to the high-dimensional overlooking person (himself): "Then I think I can raise his level of attention by one level, and the rest will be seen later." ”

"As for weapons...... Gao Wei chuckled softly, "I can easily ask someone to make the shape of a weapon, but what do you want to do with the extraordinary characteristics of Sequence Eight?" This time he has made a lot of meritorious contributions, and he cannot be fooled. ”

“…… You say the properties of the earth? Gao Wei looked at his own body in disbelief: "Do you think I am a slave of the Southern Continent?" The current features are very precious and should not be used indiscriminately! Forehead...... Why don't you talk to the Circle of Fate and let Him give him some power? ”

After a friendly exchange with the Circle of Fate, the two reached a tacit understanding. He whispered a few words to his earthly avatar, allowing Gao Wei to understand what it was necessary for the "power grant" of the Circle of Destiny.

"A blood sacrifice of the Extraordinary One with a minimum sequence of six, plus a prayer ......" A faint white ring appeared in Gao Wei's pupils, and he looked in a direction: "I can't let you escape......"

Silk threads appeared in front of Gao Wei, and he gently pulled them and stepped over with one foot.

The demon dog that was devouring the internal organs was startled for a while, but the next moment it was ferocious and pounced on Gao Wei.

- This is a "demon" who is preparing for a promotion ceremony!

"Is it okay to borrow your characteristics and body?" Gao Wei sincerely talked to the dog about what he had said to Sharon before, and the dog was silent for a moment and then continued to pounce, obviously reluctantly. Gao Wei smiled:

"You scared me."

"I'm going to start struggling for my life."

The Demon Dog's mind couldn't understand what the powerful extraordinary person in front of him was talking about, and it just wanted to bite Gao Wei's throat. Gao Wei waved his hand slightly, and a vertical wall appeared in front of him, blocking the path of the demon dog.

Gao Wei pulled out the meat saw from his pocket and slashed it neatly at the dog's head. Seeing that the demon dog lost its voice, the smile on Gao Wei's face retracted, and he took out a crimson cane from the photo he was carrying.

He put his staff in the center of the demon dog's skull and recited the prayer:

"The power of the Circle of Fate......

He's preparing to summon the power of the Circle of Fate and transfer it to this cane!

"You are the past, the present, and the future;"

"You are the cause, the effect, and the process."

"I pray to you, I pray that you will give you the gift of this cane that will connect with the power of the 'Contracted One' of the 'High Dimensional Seekers'."

Under such a casual ritual, the cane lit up with a little crimson light.
