God's forsaken land, converted to the city of the "fallen Creator".

With his eyes closed, Derrick quietly recalls the information he received at the Tarot meeting, confirming that he has not forgotten the memory of going through the same life over and over again.

As the frequency of the lightning gradually stabilized, Chief Colin, who sat cross-legged and leaned against the stone pillar, spoke, "Let's go after 50 lightning strikes." ”

Derrick took a deep breath and thought back to the plan he had made for himself at the Tarot meeting.

During this exploration, he tried to destroy the mural with the font "Redemption Rose" written on it, but nothing happened.

Derik looked at the image of Ulorius in the fresco: not the fresco.

Chief Colin, as well as the rest of the team, were attracted to Darek's anomaly.

Thankfully, Little Sun has made great progress under the tutelage of Alger, the Hanged Man, who falsely claims to have seen a yellow-haired boy to cover up his vandalism.

Because of his reminder, when the exploration team came to the room with the altar and saw the little boy named Jack, the chief's eyes examined his yellow hair, and everyone immediately became alert.

While the chief was considering how to respond to the little boy's cry for help, Derick suddenly asked, "How can I save you?" ”

The little boy Jack showed an excited expression: "Save me, send me home!" ”

Colin glanced at Derrick, not stopping the conversation between them.

Curious and scared, Derrick asked, "Where is your home?" ”

The little boy raised his hand weakly and said, "My home is in the port of Enmat. ”

Darik clenched the "Hurricane Axe" in his hand: Port of Enmat? Although Mr. Emperor and Mr. Hanged Man have not mentioned it, from the word port, Jack really does not belong here.

Thinking of this, Derrick was overjoyed and couldn't hide his excitement.

His reaction didn't arouse suspicion among Chief Colin and his companions, who were just as excited.

Even Colin couldn't help but ask, "How did you, or you, get here?" ”

The little boy Jack had a reminiscing expression: "My father and I took a boat first, then joined up with his companions, and continued the boat, and after a very big storm, the rest of the people landed on land and followed the direction of the Lord's gaze until we came here. ”

Follow the direction of the Lord's gaze? Colin and Derrick looked at the statue on the altar almost at the same time.

Then they seemed to move in unison in the opposite direction of the idol's gaze, and the map of the surrounding area that Silver City had gradually perfected as they continued to explore came to their minds.

Giant Court!

In that direction are the ruins of the Giant's Court!

At this time, Derick keenly noticed that there was dark red blood slowly oozing from the clothes between the chest and abdomen of the little boy Jack.

"Are you hurt?" He asked cautiously.

Jack hung his head and replied in a vague tone, "Something bad grows......"

As he spoke, he pulled back his clothes, revealing his bare chest and abdomen. There, inlaid with two eyes, a nose and a mouth.

That human face is gentle and indifferent, much like the silver-haired angel in the mural!

Deric was a little excited: Mr. Emperor's guess was right, this little boy was the key, and it was because of the ability of the "King of Angels" that we were trapped here.

"I'm so hungry......" Jack's mouth grinned at the base of his ear, "I'm so hungry......"

The power of madness and depravity spread around, and Chief Colin wanted to seal Jack, but the little boy was very vulnerable, and as soon as Colin made a move, Jack fell to the ground.

Darek felt a trance for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he was back to when he had just set up camp.

Until Chief Colin said, "Set off after 50 lightning bolts." ”

The seventh expedition soon began, and this time Daerik did not destroy the mural, and they again went to the room with the altar and found the little boy Jack.

After a conversation similar to the last exploration, Derik saw the human face on Jack's body again, and he did not make any irritating moves, but lowered his voice and said to Colin: "Your Excellency, the human face on his chest is very similar to the angel in the mural just now. ”

Colin was stunned for a moment, then looked at Derrick with his peripheral vision.

After a few seconds of silence, he whispered, "Your reminder reminds me of something. I have read in the books about the 'King of Angels'......"

Darek almost nodded his head and said yes, yes.

This is connected with the information provided by Mr. Emperor, and Mr. Emperor's information is really so accurate and reliable!

Colin looked at the anomaly in Darik's eyes and continued without a pause, "...... It is said that when 'the Creator of all, the all-knowing and all-powerful God,' was watching the world, He was surrounded by many angels.

Of these, there are eight princes of all the angels, the king of angels who is closest to God.

"Unfortunately, in the long history, the records in the classics are somewhat sketchy, and only the two kings of angels have relatively detailed records.

"One of the kings of angels is called the Angel of Destiny, Ulorius the 'Tail Eater'."

This time, Derrick had to put his hand against his chin to suppress the urge to nod: whether it is the way, the nickname or the name, it is exactly the same as Mr. Emperor!

He tried to surprise himself a little: "Tail Eater? ”

Colin looked at the little boy Jack: "This means that we may have stepped into a river that we can't leave, and we can't leave.

"Luckily, this should just be some of the power left behind by the Angel of Destiny, and He is not hiding here."

As he spoke, Colin took out a small dark red metal tube, unscrewed the cap, and drank the liquid inside.

His pale blue eyes quickly faded, and the eyes stood up, reflecting the figure of the little boy Jack.

Colin plunged his longsword into the ground, then pulled out another straight sword with his backhand, coating it with golden sun-like grease.

The little boy Jack noticed Colin's movements, and his expression immediately changed, as if a thick shadow was hanging over him.

Before Jack could open his mouth, Colin drew his sword from the ground, and the two swords glowed gold and silver, respectively.

These two rays of light hit the shadow on the little boy Jack's body, and after a terrible scream, the gold and silver white rays disappeared, and the face between the little boy Jack's chest and abdomen disappeared, leaving only a hole where the wriggling internal organs could be seen.

A few meters in front of Jack's side, Colin's twin swords stabbed a torn human face, and the organs on the face twitched a few times, and then it was silent.

For a moment, Darik felt an invisible, wall-like barrier around him silently crack.

He was overjoyed in his heart, knowing that he and the others had finally gotten rid of a repetitive life.

At this moment, Derick sincerely thanked Mr. Emperor and Mr. Fool, who gave him a reminder and a solution to the problem, otherwise he might have to repeat it dozens of times or hundreds of times before it was possible to find the clue.

And people will always repeat the same choice, the first time you can't find the problem, without the corresponding memory and experience, the hundredth and thousandth times may not be able to detect the abnormality.

Thinking of this, Derrick once again realized how terrifying the power of the "King of Angels" was! How weird!

……

Fenerport Kingdom, Jeffrey Collar.

Hobert accepted the bounty of £1,020 that Alger had received, and he put the money aside and looked at the roof for a moment: "Beckland Great Smog! ”

After a long silence in the room, Hobert abruptly got up and went to the "Land of Disorder".

This time he turned to the back of the "Iron Throne", where there was a stone coffin, and with a wave of his hand, the "power of order" covering the coffin disappeared.

With another wave of his hand, the stone lid of the coffin opened.

Lying flat inside was a spirit that sometimes condensed, sometimes faded.

If you ignore the process of his fading and fading, this spirit is no different from a normal person.

His eyes were closed, his nose was straight, and his hairline was slightly high, the spirit of Dunn Smith, whom Hobart had worked so hard to protect.

Hobert said: "I'm sorry, Captain Smith, I've been busy lately, and I haven't had time to find someone to help you shape a new body, so I guess you'll have to lie here for a while."

"Take a good rest, after all, your potions have always made you sleep badly."

As he spoke, Hobart showed a slight wry smile: "Since I came to this world, there are too many things that make me unwilling, I want to change some things, and I have been working hard for this."

"But, I'm still too weak! That's what happened in the city of Tingen, and after I got involved, not only did I not save you, but things got more complicated.

"I'm too weak, too weak."

Hobert leaned on the coffin and sat down a little weakly: "This matter is too complicated, although I have an angel-level assistant, but I don't dare to use it, in case Adam is in a hurry, I will be helping again."

"And that's not counting the angels of House Augustus, and the power of the Church, my presence will only complicate matters."

He let out a sigh, as if he had made up his mind: "No matter, I'm still messing up my own mess!" ”

Hobert stood up, closed the lid again, and rewrapped the sarcophagus with the "power of order".

He sat on the "Iron Throne" and smiled: "What do I have to worry about, a small sequence 5, how can I worry so much?" As long as Klein doesn't ask me for help, I'll act like it didn't happen! ”

Shaking his head, Hobart looked at the waterhole in front of him, there were many stars expanding, and Hobart spread the spirit through.

The owners of these new stars, all members of the Balk family, have nothing of substance, but their daily prayers.

Hobart found Upton's star and told him that the "Divine Favorite" would come back to meet him at half past nine.

Then he reached out and summoned the two "failed items" that Jessica had sent him, and with the power of the "State of Disorder", he easily shattered the weapon and aggregated the extraordinary characteristics inside.

The extraordinary properties of extraordinary materials are obviously smaller than the extraordinary characteristics of a certain sequence, only the size of a finger, but the extraordinary effect that should still be there, that is, without the appearance of extraordinary materials, I wonder if Kelly will have an impact on it?

Then Hobert thought of another thing, he picked up the "Black Emperor Card" placed on the handle of the "Iron Throne", and looked at the back position.

"Sequence 3: Frenzy Mage

"Main material: the complete brain of the six-whiskered kiwimon, a complete phantom multi-eyed butterfly.

"Auxiliary materials: 12 ml of the venom of the white-veined spider, 8 ml of the scale crystals of the carp, 8 ml of the brain fluid of the six-whiskered kiwi, and 50 ml of red wine stored for eight years.

"Ritual: The more people who can associate the abstract concept of that field with the actual name of the person who is promoted, the more people can associate the two together, the more likely the promotion will be successful."

Hobert sighed, the ceremony of promotion sequence 4 is just to seize a certain amount of power and wealth, as long as it is laid out in advance, it is not too difficult.

But the ritual of Sequence 3 is completely difficult, and it is already developing in the direction of associating the promoter with something conceptualized, and it has to be laid out in advance, and it has to find the field of "amazing achievement".

If you want to associate a certain field with a name, there are many examples in Hobert's mind, such as e-commerce and Ma Yun, such as electronic communication and Ma Huateng, mobile phone and Ren Zhengfei or Lei Jun, and so on.

To achieve this, the times, the environment, culture, policies, individual efforts and other conditions are indispensable!

After pondering for a while, Hobert finally had a good idea: to cross the river by touching Russell the Great!

More than a hundred years have passed now, but when it comes to consuls and emperors, the first thing that comes to everyone's mind is Russell!

Relatively speaking, the royal family of the Vorsack Empire does not seem to have any presence at all.

This is enough to show that Russell has taken the profession of emperor to the extreme!

Of course, Hobert also knew that the environment and conditions of Russell the Great were no longer available, and it was impossible to make everyone known by "being the emperor" in sequence 4.

But we can refer to the history of Russell's development, using the advanced ideas of the Common Era, to achieve amazing achievements in a certain field.

Hobert nodded slowly, this is a good idea, if you have time, you can think about it.

He picked up the "Black Emperor Card" again and continued to look down.

"Sequence 2: The Duke of Entropy

"Main material: the complete brain of the Blackscale Emperor Crystal Gold Beast, or the extraordinary properties of the 'Duke of Entropy'.

"Auxiliary materials: 10 ml of blood from the Black Scale Emperor Crystal Gold Beast, 10 ml of bile from the Blue Blood Emperor Crystal Gold Beast, and 60 ml of white wine that has been stored for 9 years.

"Ritual: to cause chaos involving all classes in the world's largest city, and to quell the chaos with the unique and never-before-seen new order proposed by the promoters, and to drink the potion in the confusion and helplessness that this chaos has brought to the people, and in the reluctance of the people to accept the new order."

Hobert put down the "Black Emperor Card", and when he had just obtained this blasphemy card, he had glanced at the ceremony of promotion to Sequence 3 and Sequence 2.

At that time, it may be because my level is not high, and I feel that it is still far from this step, but I don't feel anything.

Now that I am seriously looking at the promotion ceremonies of these two sequences, I have only one thought in my heart: Is it too late to change paths now?

This is clearly a script prepared for Russell, but Russell is directly promoted to the "Black Emperor", and he doesn't use any of these ceremonies that he can achieve without much preparation!

Hobert smiled silently: There are more things that annoy Lao Tzu, how old is the Beckland smog?

Right?

……

Southern Continent, Crowlier City.

Elliott could sense that Governor Jonas and General Anthony were visibly much warmer towards the members of the Balk family.

Governor Jonas warmly invited members of the Balk family, who had been wounded in battle, to his manor house to recuperate.

The members who were originally worried about their lives were already alive after being treated by the "founder", and the lightly injured who had not been treated by the "founder" had to find a place to recuperate.

General Anthony gave up one of his luxurious villas to Lawrence and other elders.

In the huge villa, there lived only a few elders and Elliott, the family of the "founder".

But there were no less than a hundred servants in the villa.

On Tuesday morning, Elliot wakes up early and orders his servants to prepare snacks and tea, which he prepares to entertain the "Divine Ones."

Even the patriarch Lawrence could only wait outside the parlor for an audience from the "Divine Favor".

Elliot often looked at the pocket watch on the table and watched the minutes tick by.

Finally, at 7:58, the space in the corner of the living room suddenly became illusory, and the "Divine Servant" wearing a mask and carrying a wooden box came out of it.

Elliot also hurriedly put on his mask, and he stood up and said, "Divine Favorer! ”

Hobert nodded, "Sit." ”

He sat down consciously and placed the wooden box on the table to his left.

Elliott then sat down: "Divine Favor, thank you for providing the 'Runaway Stone', which allowed us to still grasp the initiative on the battlefield despite a clear disadvantage in numbers. ”

Hobert smiled, "It's all the 'founder's guidance." ”

"Praise the Maker!"

Hobert had no choice but to follow: "Praise the Founder!" ”

Elliot asked, "Divine Favor, what gesture should be used to praise the Creator?" ”

The mask obscured Hobert's embarrassed smile: this, neither the "founder" nor the "god-favored" had considered it!

But without gestures, it looks like a scam.

Hobert had to borrow it from the memory in his mind, only to see Hobart get up, hammer his heart with one hand, and hammer his back with the other: "Praise the founder!" ”

Elliott followed suit, feeling that the first half of this movement was a bit similar to the gesture of the Storm Church, but it was more powerful, and he even felt that he was much more energetic in these two hammer blows!

Hobert smiled: "The slogan of praise can also be: Give my heart!"

"I am willing to be the 'founder' and willing to sacrifice my life for lofty ideals and goals!"

The back of Elliott's head tingles with excitement: this represents the most sincere allegiance to the "Founder"! There are also lofty ideals and goals! That's the power of faith!

After more than ten seconds, Elliott gradually calmed down from her self-exaltation, and the two of them sat down again.

Hobert said, "I have considered everything you said in your letter, please let Lawrence in." ”

When Lawrence came in, he inevitably said a few more polite words.

After praising the "Founder" again and thanking the "Divine Favorite", Lawrence, who was sitting on Hobert's side, said: "Divine Favor, I have invited you this time to talk about the future development direction of the Balk family. ”

Hobert was still a little uncomfortable with this kind of religious conversation, he took a deep breath, and if he didn't get used to it, he had to get used to it, and as a "god", if he showed any slack feelings towards the "founder", the consequences would be very serious.

Lawrence continued: "We are going to buy some estates and land to enrich the family estate, and if there is an opportunity to buy the deposits, it would be great.

"In the next step, we plan to let more family members go outside the town to train, and gradually occupy more extraordinary positions in General Anthony's territory, and jointly control General Anthony's territory with the Fursaks.

"In the future, we also intend to expand our influence in the surrounding areas, such as General Adrian's territory in the south, and the autonomous region of Arenas in the northwest.

"In short, we will have more resources, wealth, and people at our disposal, and we are willing to give them to you if the Divine Ones need them."

Hobert said, "If the cause of the 'founder' is in demand, I will come to you."

"But I have some premature suggestions for the future direction of the Balk family."

"Please!" Lawrence, of course, knew that the so-called "premature advice" was instructions from the "Divine Ones"!

"The industrial age has arrived!" "It's better to invest all your wealth in resource-based industries than in manufacturing," Hobert said.

"The plundering mode of the countries of the Northern Continent is to import low-cost raw materials and resources from the Southern Continent, process them into industrial products, and then sell them to the Southern Continent, which makes all the wealth of the Southern Continent and the Rorsted Islands flow to the Northern Continent.

"In what seems like a bargain, there is a plundering of resources and a plundering of industry.

"And the industrial products of the southern continent are still scarce, and the price is several times that of the northern continent."

These words opened the eyes of Lawrence and Elliott, after all, they have been nesting in the Southern Continent for so many years, although Lawrence has the ambition to revitalize the family, but his vision and concept have been derailed from this world.

Hobert said: "In today's world, until a long time after that, if you want to be self-reliant, you must go through the beating of the industrial age!"

"Other extraordinary families, even old extraordinary organizations like the 'Rose School' and the 'Spirit Order', have a hard time amassing wealth with industrial products.

"But the Balk family is relatively easy, because the 'founder' has many dependents in the Northern Continent, and they can help you buy some machines that are forbidden to be exported by the northern countries, and then send them to the Southern Continent by sacrificing to the 'founder'.

"You can start with the textile industry or the smelting industry, and accumulate the management model and technology of the industrial era little by little.

"At that time, the Balk family's industry will be useful to the 'founder', and the 'founder' will also pay more attention to the southern continent."

Lawrence clapped his hands: "Thank you to the gods for guiding the path, whether it is textiles or smelted metals, they are very popular in the Southern Continent." ”

Huo Bo nodded: "When building a factory on the side, you can select a group of outstanding young people in the family to study in the Northern Continent." ”

Lawrence hurriedly said: "Then there is Lao's 'divine favor' to help arrange the study." ”

"That's fine, but let them learn Rune or Fenerport in advance." Hobert said, "Or I'll see if I can get a permanent spell in these two languages through channels." ”

Lawrence said, "I'll ask Elliott to write to you again." ”

He added, "Honorable Divine Servant, you should know about the Balk family, so we'd love to buy as many extraordinary traits as we can from you. ”

"I brought it." Hobert opened the lid of the wooden box on the table, and there was a dazzling array of them, all of which were the extraordinary properties of the sequences below the demigods of the "lawyer" path.

Lawrence and Elliott were stunned, they thought they would be able to buy a dozen copies of the extraordinary trait at most, but they didn't expect it to be the same as wholesale.

Thank you to Captain of the Hyperion for your tip.

Thank you for the reward.
