Chapter 117: Consultation Fee
Nightmare?Klein pondered for two seconds and said:
"Yes.
"I would dream of a misty town, with a red moon in the middle of the sky that was sometimes clear and sometimes blurred.
"In the middle of this town, there is a black church full of hanging corpses, dressed in clothes of different ages, gently swaying in the wind and making strange noises.
"In addition to these, there is also a beautiful woman with blood-colored human flesh hanging between her teeth, a mushroom man composed of countless small mushrooms......"
In order to treat his psychological problems, Crane reconstructed his dreams relatively completely, but did not explain that this was a real thing, did not reveal that he knew the identity of the beautiful woman and the origin of the strange mushroom, and at the same time, he concealed the existence of the transparent worm mass and Zarathu.
Audrey listened attentively and intently, and said in thought, based on her own extraordinary intuition and knowledge of occult psychology:
"Mr. 'World', I can imagine the horror and strangeness of these dream scenes, and I can also experience the great fear that will wake you up. β
Seeing that the other party across the board did not refute, Audrey became more and more confident, quietly made a new round of "reassurance", and began to "guide":
"Fear in dreams often comes from hidden emotions in the heart, and most of the time there are only two sources of hidden fear in the heart, one is the unknown, and the other is irresistible.
"The terrible things you see in your dreams are just appearances, and what you really fear is what they represent, what symbolizes, what is hidden behind the scenes. β
As she spoke, Audrey suddenly asked:
"What's that?"
Klein was following the soft and sweet voice of Miss "Justice", relaxing a little bit, and examining his heart a little bit, when he suddenly heard such a question, and subconsciously replied:
"It's the being who made it all this. β
He paused for a second, then hesitantly added:
"They are both unknown and irresistible. β
At this time, Klein had already understood the real reason for his nightmare and poor mental state:
He instinctively fears something, and instinctively has hidden negative emotions.
The former contains both the horrors of the transparent worm and Zarathu, as well as the inexplicable actions of the Eraser Angel and the success of using the Dark Emblem to "open the door", which respectively create feelings of despair that cannot resist the road ahead, and the unknown feeling of who is the enemy, who is the friend, and who is plotting something.
Yes, I am afraid of the transparent worms that are suspected to be the "soothsayer" pathway sequence 1 "The Mysterious Attendant", in the fear of Zarathu, who does not know what he has achieved with the help of "opening the door", in the fear of the goddess with unknown thoughts, and the eraser angel...... Crane exhaled slowly, admitting his fears.
Audrey used "appeasement" again, and found that the tension of Mr. "World" was essentially relieved, and she was overjoyed in her heart, and boldly said:
"One of the main sources of fear is a lack of self-confidence, and if you think about it, you have been negligent and made a mistake in the matter, which has caused your spirit to keep reminding you, hinting at you, and gradually evolving into part of the nightmare. β
There have been negligence, mistakes have been made, reminders from the Spirit...... Klein pondered Miss Justice's words, carefully combing through the details of what he feared.
Soon, his expression sank a little bit, and he found a problem:
Through the Holy Sword, in the presence of the goddess, when I made the vow, although I had not yet become a "clown", the power of the gray mist was far from entering the real world, and it could not be detected by special gods, demigods, and spirit creatures, but it was difficult to hide from the extraordinary person of "fate", that is, the path of "monster".
And the goddess also has the title of "Empress of Doom and Fear", she is in charge of doom and belongs to one of the gods in the realm of fate!
So, did you start to be watched at that time?
Klein's mind settled little by little, and the fear of the unknown seemed to be alleviated by half.
He did not reply, nor did he wait for Miss Justice to speak again, but asked:
"What would you do if you were to face one, or even more, enemies that were difficult to challenge?"
Audrey was not annoyed by the patient's cross-questioning, but thought it was a good sign, and said thoughtfully:
"Hide first, hide first, and work hard to improve yourself. β
"What if the time you gain from dodging and hiding doesn't allow you to grow enough to face your enemies?" Klein asked, "What if the gap between the two sides is hard to bridge?"
Audrey replied, half reassuringly, half earnestly:
"Looking for enough helpers. β
Helper...... Klein flashed multiple names in his mind, and his heart precipitated a lot, so he continued to ask:
"Even if you have helpers, you still can't fight the enemy?
"If there is a helper who doesn't know what he is planning, maybe it will be good for you, maybe it will harm you?"
Audrey was dazed for a while, and after a few seconds of thought, she replied:
"You can ask the gods. β
She almost said "world", you can ask Mr. "Fool" for help.
And the Q&A just now convinced Audrey of one thing, that is, Mr. "World's" mental problems mainly come from powerful and terrible enemies, but there are some worries about the unknown position of the "helper" hidden at the deep level.
Pray to the gods...... Klein didn't dare to directly say that if the gods couldn't solve it, it would be even more difficult to guess what the gods thought, after all, this was the land of the "fools", and he himself was a dependent.
He organized the following language:
"The gods can only help in certain ways, and that isn't enough?"
...... Audrey originally wanted to say that there will always be a way, and that good will triumph over evil, but it is difficult to convince herself, and it is difficult to find corresponding examples as references, and finally, she pursed her lips and said:
"I don't know ......"
In the "confessional room", the darkness was silent, and the two did not speak again for a short time, as if they were caught in different inner struggles.
Finally, Audrey broke the silence and looked at the plank that separated the two and said:
"No matter what, you have to do something, try to do something, you can't just give up and don't resist. β
Oh, yes...... At least I still have a lot of secrets, and some to rely on...... Klein closed his eyes, leaned against the plank, and his thoughts gradually turned back to the recent events, and the whole person was no longer so tense and often restless.
Audrey sensed the change in this regard and immediately added another "appeasement", so that after that, Klein's mental state was completely restored.
"I'm feeling better, thank you for your treatment, how much do you need?" Klein asked.
Actually, I should thank you for providing the case...... Audrey didn't want to charge for the consultation too much, looking at the dividing plank in the deep darkness, she couldn't help but recall the usual gloomy and cold, sophisticated and ruthless performance of Mr. "World".
Not...... His mental problems should also have his own personality factors...... Audrey suddenly had an idea, and the corners of her mouth slowly curled:
"I need very little money for a consultation.
"Well, I wish me happiness!"
...... Klein was stunned, almost forgetting that he was dressed in a Gelman Sparrow persona.
He had never heard such a request!
Klein hesitated for a while, and finally spoke coldly as the "world":
"Since you're asking for that......
"I wish you happiness. β
Audrey's smile suddenly became fuller:
"I wish you happiness too!
"Mr. 'World', don't always keep things in your heart, smile more and be happy, you can eliminate a lot of hidden dangers.
"Okay, your mental problems have been resolved, but you need to have a follow-up appointment in a few days or next week. β
Crane didn't know how to respond, so he could only simply say "um".
Then, he heard the door creak open on the other side, and saw Miss "Justice" exit the "confessional" from the perspective of a "fool" and straighten up.
After letting the other party return to the real world, Crane didn't dare to stay on the gray fog for too long, and soon left the place and lay down on his own bed.
At this time, his mental state was restored, and his body and mind were relaxed, and he realized one thing, that is, he had digested a lot of the potion of his "secret puppet master", and the progress was far beyond expectations!
This is because in the misty town, relying on the "secret puppet" to deceive the demigod Panatia, and manipulate her and Mr. A to complete the performance as expected? Therefore, in addition to "trying to be behind the scenes" and "making each secret puppet have its own personality and be more real", the "secret puppet master" code also includes "using his own secret puppet as a guide, manipulating the enemy, and staging a puppet show in reality"? Klein thoughtfully muttered a few words to himself, thinking that maybe within this year, he would be able to digest the potion.
He exhaled with mixed emotions, turned his head to the side, looked at the crimson moonlight piercing through the curtains, and said silently:
"The missing servant should have been found, and the clues I left behind should have been discovered......"
............
In the basement of St. Samuel's Church, Leonard, Cindy, Bob, and the others looked at the captain Sost, who had returned from the meeting, and waited patiently for him to introduce new clues.
Sost took a sip of coffee and said:
"The missing servants have been found.
In the room where he was housed, there were some of the intruders' clothes left.
It was confirmed that this belonged to Gelman Sparrow, a crazy adventurer who had previously been active at sea. β
How did you get involved in a crazy adventurer...... Leonard was slightly surprised and asked directly:
"When did he come to Beckland?"
"No one knows, the only thing that is certain is that this mad adventurer has been at sea in recent weeks, hunting pirates. "The Storm Church knows more, and MI9 seems to know a lot, and someone will be sent to contact you." β
Sost had just finished his confession when a telegram came in.
It comes from the "Night Watchmen" team in County Diece, and the decoded content is:
"Daun DantΓ¨s's current identity is false, he has amassed a lot of wealth in the last ten years in the Southern Continent through adventure...... Further confirmation takes time, as there is chaos, there are frequent wars, and there are frequent changes in regional affiliation. β
