Chapter 132: The Truth Behind It Is ......
Although the young secretary of Emilius has a pride in his heart, at least it is not reflected in his daily life and work, but this arrogance makes him work beyond ordinary people.
Klein took a nap in the admiral's office, and after cutting out an ugly paper figure to clean up the traces of today's battle, Lu Eran returned with a man in his thirties who was in a state of mental exhaustion.
"Your Excellency, this is the leader of the Celestial Cult on Olawe Island, Follett Ken, a 'madman'."
He lowered his head, which had been held high two hours ago, and reported softly.
"Crazy" naturally does not refer to the mental state of the leader of this cult, but to the sequence of the "prisoner" path8, Klein learned about this path from Sharon and Maric of Beckland, almost all of them are members of the "Rose School", Sharon belongs to the "moderation" faction, and the "indulgence" faction has a "fine tradition" of killing, bloody sacrifices, promiscuity, etc., which coincides with what happened tonight to a great extent.
According to this "madman", they are a branch of the "Rose School", which was preached and developed by the sage Zatwin of the school, and the "bound god" of the Rose School is an embodiment of the "Mother Tree of Desire", and what they really believe in is the evil and hidden deity of the "Mother Tree of Desire".
In the face of this cultist, Klein was not polite, he secretly switched the "wriggling hunger" to the soul of the interrogator, released a certain amount of coercion instead of the "ninth law" spell that had been used, and soon asked everything in Follett's mouth.
His initial guess was correct, it was indeed the pendant in the shape of a black rhinoceros horn that had polluted Cynthia, and that this so-called "reproductive necklace" was provided by the Celestial Sect.
As long as Cynthia consumed the powder from the pendant and revoked the name of the "Mother Tree of Desire" worshiped by the Celestial Sect, "Emilius" would not be able to refuse her temptation, and it would be easier for her to conceive the child of the Extraordinary One at that time.
As for Cynthia's purpose, Lu Eran also investigated it clearly from her parents, and for the sake of her family's development and growth on Olavi Island, and for Cynthia's own selfishness, she decided to give birth to a child with extraordinary abilities and keep the admiral's heart.
As far as I know, Emilius already had a family of his own, but with his old-fashioned, emotional personality, if this child was born, he might really succeed in Cynthia's attempts...... Klein heard a little toothache, and couldn't show obvious changes in expression, so he could only snort coldly, hold the horn pendant, accentuate the tone and the effect of "spiritual piercing", and asked:
"What does this necklace really do!"
He seemed to have already made up his mind, and his tone was not questioning but confirming, but in fact he was just guessing, after all, such a cult is not "sending Guanyin", and will do good deeds without leaving a name?
Under his oppression, Follett, who had exhausted his strength in the battle against Lur'an to capture him, quickly succumbed and shouted as if madness:
"It, it can pollute you through intimacy!
"As long as Cynthia uses this pendant, takes the powder, and recites the honorific name of the 'Mother Tree of Desire', she will be able to contaminate you and become His followers while giving birth to a child, no, a Dependent!
"The 'Mother Tree of Desire' transcends the Seven Gods, transcends the 'True Creator', and is the only true deity, and you, Your Excellency, are His chosen Dependents!"
The more he talked, the more excited he became, and he even had a tendency to stand up, until Lu Er'an behind him snorted coldly, and then he knelt down sweating profusely again.
Based on the other party's answers, Klein could guess the ultimate purpose of the Celestial Sect.
The polluted Admiral Emilius will not tolerate the laws of the kingdom and the orthodox cult, so he can only secretly join them and gradually become a devout believer of the "Mother Tree of Desire", taking care of the development of the celestial sect on the island of Olavi and providing them with shelter.
Even after he and Cynthia's children who had been favored by the Mother Tree of Desire grew up, the sect could go one step further and spread their faith to other colonies and even within the kingdom.
The abacus is quite beautiful, but I think that with the strict defense of the seven gods, most of your strategies will stop at this small island...... Klein was surprised at first, and then a little scared, but when he thought about it, it was probably difficult to succeed in this matter.
Because he adhered to his inner rules, he did not have intimate contact with Cynthia during the play, so he did not see the abnormality of the other party in the two days of life, which led to the mistress who repeatedly took the "Breeding Necklace" powder and finally accumulated too much pollution in her body and mutated.
If it were Emilius herself, he might have been pleased with Cynthia's initiative to try to have sex with her, but this demigod has the ability to easily see through whether the other person is extraordinary or not, and there is a high probability that he can see the pollution in her body when he is close to Cynthia and respond appropriately.
So if it weren't for me taking the place of Emilius, your scheming would have been ...... Wait a minute?
A thought suddenly crossed Klein's mind.
He stopped hearing Follett's confession, and Lu Er'an, who had been looking up with a solemn face because he had ignored the interpersonal relationships around Cynthia, leaned forward and approached the leader of the celestial sect who was kneeling on the ground, and asked:
"Who instructed you in this scheme?"
Follett, who had collapsed under continuous questioning and mental oppression, replied honestly:
"At first, at first it was Cynthia who came to us through her parents, and I sold her the 'Necklace of Reproduction' at a high price and did not let her take the powder, but, but ...... the 'Mother Tree of Desire', He instructed me in my dreams to go further and bring His blessings to you!"
The direct instructions of the evil gods are equivalent to oracles. If it's just the first plan, it's not easy for Emilius or me to discover...... Klein somewhat confirmed what he was thinking, but he continued to ask:
"When did you dream?"
"This Wednesday, February 9th, a ship with a broken mast came to the dock that night, and I remember it very well......"
Really......
Klein's speculation was conclusively confirmed.
He looked at his secretary, Lu Er'an, whose blonde hair had lost luster from the previous turmoil, but his expression remained meticulous.
"Let's go out first."
He did not explain why, it was the prerogative of being a superior person.
Lu Er'an nodded, quickly walked to the door, closed the door gently, and with the click of the door lock, the whole study became quiet, as if isolated from the outside world.
Or even use extraordinary abilities? Aside from the arrogance of his heart, he is indeed an excellent secretary...... Klein looked at Follett with satisfaction and asked one last question:
"What else did you do after the Mother Tree of Desire' gave the order?"
"We ...... In the same night, following His revelation, using the powder of the 'Necklace of Reproduction', a ritual was performed that magnified the appetite of a homeless man, who, as if he had died after overeating......"
Sure enough, the candidate who was originally scheduled to play Emilius was also "solved" by them......
Having the last piece of the puzzle in hand, Crane stopped talking, his mind racing.
Sometime before February 9th, the Celestial Sect was ready to offer Cynthia the "Necklace of Reproduction" so that she could have the opportunity to give birth to Emilius' child. But on Wednesday, February 9th, when Angel and I came to Olavi Island, Follett got the revelation of the "Mother Tree of Desire" in a dream, changed the plan, and used the "explosive appetite" to make the homeless man who was originally chosen as Emilius's stand-in overeat to die, and Bilt of the Adventurers' Mutual Aid Society could only ask me to become his substitute.
At the same time, Cynthia's "help" was also upgraded, she not only wore a necklace to prepare to tempt the admiral, but even took necklace powder, accumulating the pollution of the "Mother Tree of Desire" in her body, once she had an intimate relationship, she would inevitably be infected with the pollution of this evil god and become his favorite.
At first, I thought that their target was Emilius, but according to this timeline, the target of the "Mother Tree of Desire" was actually me!
No, it's not just me...... If I hadn't resisted the temptation to have sex with Cynthia in the past few days, she wouldn't have mutated due to the accumulation of too much pollution, and I, as a middle sequence, wouldn't have seen the hidden pollution, and the whole thing would have passed without realizing it.
And after that, there is a great probability that something will happen to Angel when I end the commission and turn back into myself......
Thinking of this, Klein's face turned a little pale, and even the "Faceling's" ability to keep his expression unchanged could not be hidden.
According to the true plan of the Celestial Sect and the "Mother Tree of Desire", both of us will eventually be polluted by Him and become His followers, His favorites!
