The Blessing of the FoolChapter 1053: The Blessing of the Fool

After learning from Pallez Zoroast how to deal with Amon's clones and prevent them from transmitting information, Klein began to prepare this plan.

He spent two full days repeatedly using the Faceless Man's abilities to enter the City of Silver, discussing the details with Chief Colin, allowing Derrick to patrol the City of Silver using his position, while he used the vision of Sefirah Castle to look for other Amon clones.

This was not in vain. During his thorough search, he actually found two other "slippery fish".

Of course, Klein couldn't rule out whether there were clones of Amon hiding in the dark, but according to his guess, the clones in Silver City probably didn't even have Sequence 2. Otherwise, placing these "spies" here for a long time would be equivalent to leaving this part of the Beyonder characteristics idle, which would be a waste of "His" original strength. Moreover, the Beyonders in Silver City were not of high Sequence, and the most powerful chief was only Sequence 4. There was no need to leave an angel-level force to monitor this place.

After marking all the clones, the Chief gathered some residents in batches at the appropriate time and announced a plan to strengthen patrols on the roads leading to Afternoon Town, as well as to establish more outposts and supply points to support the "Giant King's Court" exploration team that would be formed later.

Among those summoned was naturally one of Amon's clones, but since there were hundreds of people involved and Silver City had organized several large-scale patrols before, this action was not unexpected and therefore did not alert the clones.

Of course, if Amon's clones found any problems, Klein, who was monitoring them at all times, would give up his disguise and launch an attack directly in the "Source Castle". The Chief promised to use a special seal in the Silver City to try to prevent the extraordinary characteristics of Amon's clone and the "Worm of Time" from returning to their original bodies.

Fortunately, the plan went smoothly. Amon's clone was tricked into going underground, and as we expected, he gathered all the forces in the City of Silver to strengthen their combat effectiveness and pass on intelligence... They probably didn't know how Backlund's companions were captured in one fell swoop, and they were not vigilant against similar methods...

Klein muttered in his mind as he threw away the "Luck Stealer" and "Petrification" spells that had been used and had lost their luster. He had just used the latter to attack himself, and then swapped his inevitable fate of death with Amon's clone, causing him to be completely petrified from the inside out and lose the ability to transmit information.

In order to ensure the effectiveness of the attack, his body in the Silver City was a historical projection, the "Star Staff" in his hand used for a feint was a historical projection, and the two talismans were real objects brought directly from outside the city.

Under his cold gaze, Amon, whose body, black robe and even the crystal monocle in his eye socket turned into stone, fell to the ground without making any sound and shattered into stones of varying sizes. A thick "Time Worm" drilled out of the corpse, with a brilliant light flashing inside, and flew outwards at an extremely fast speed.

As expected, simple "petrification" could not solve the "worm of time" that caused Amon's clone to return to his original body... Klein was not surprised. Instead, he sent the "Staff of the Star" back to the mist of history as if he had been prepared. He reached into his pocket with his free hand and touched the other two talismans. Before he took them out completely, he had already infused them with spirituality and chanted in a low voice:

"Betrayal."

"destiny!"

When he was attacked by "betrayal" and the "Luck Stealer" had not yet transferred its effect, Klein could even feel certain thoughts in his body beginning to stir, as if resisting his personality as "Klein" and were about to form their own thoughts.

But as fate changed, this abnormality soon disappeared, and the "Worm of Time" in the air suddenly stopped. The light spots inside that represented the extraordinary characteristics and the worm body that stored the information obtained by the clone betrayed each other, exploding into a small flame, and then lost power and fell back to the ground.

Until this time, the "Chief" Colin Iliad, who was hiding in the dark, walked out slowly. The straight sword he always carried with him was now inserted into the ground behind him. A little bit of pure and thick light appeared on the ground, walls and ceiling with his footsteps.

Klein guessed that this was the effect of one of the two "god-level seals" of the City of Silver, which was the seal numbered "0" of the Orthodox Church, but he was not sure about the specific method and effect.

Moreover, he had some doubts about whether this seal, which was likely to have only Sequence 2 power, had the ability to intercept the "Time Worm". After all, Pales said that in order to prevent the return of the Time Worm and the characteristics, in addition to using spells such as "betrayal", at least Sequence 1 power was required, and he did not think that the "God-Forsaken Land" still had such precious Beyonder characteristics.

Unless, although the Sealed Artifact only has the characteristics of Sequence 2, it has a higher status, just like the talisman created by the power of "City of Disaster"...

While thinking, Klein watched Colin approach the petrified body of Amon's clone, pick up the "Time Worm" that fell to the ground and the condensed characteristics, and come to him.

According to the agreement, the "Worm of Time" left by Amon's clone belongs to Klein, and the Beyonder Characteristics will be distributed according to their preciousness through negotiation.

Klein's gaze briefly lingered on the larger insect body formed by the aggregation of multiple clones, and then he looked at the group of extraordinary characteristics. Based on the attraction of the adjacent sequence aggregation instinct and the size of the characteristics extracted by Amon's clones that he had seen before, he judged:

"It should be Sequence 3, but there are more than normal... probably two. After splitting it, we can each have half."

This was consistent with his previous judgment: Amon did not station an angel-level clone in the City of Silver, especially at the critical moment of competing with Pales for the Sequence 1 characteristics.

But Colin shook his head and said in a low voice:

"The City of Silver will not keep this extraordinary characteristic. It will easily lead to disaster… Can I sacrifice it to Mr. Fool in exchange for a favor?"

In fact, I don't want to accept this feature. It has limited effect on weakening Amon's strength, but it makes it easy for the enemy to find me. It is safe to keep it on the gray fog, but it will completely lose its due effect...

Klein's expression was a little stiff, and after a moment he asked:

"Do you need the great Mr. Fool to give you a blessing to help you advance to the Sequence 3 Silver Knight?"

Even with the abilities of the Joker, Klein still felt his face getting hot when he talked about his "great self".

Fortunately, his action of directly exposing the thoughts of "Chief" Colin caused the latter to fall into silence for a short time, and his eyes dropped to the ground, as if he was looking through the floor to a place deep underground.

"Yes, the promotion ceremony of the 'Silver Knight' requires the blessing of the gods."

The "demon hunter" with white hair and beard and weathered eyes answered slowly.

This is a small matter. Although The Fool has nothing else, his status is still sufficient under the blessing of Sefirah Castle... Klein forced a smile and nodded,

"After I leave, you can arrange the sacrificial ceremony. I think the great Mr. Fool will not refuse the request of a devout believer."

He was not prepared to receive the "Time Worm" and the extraordinary characteristics himself, because when the historical projection disappeared, nothing could be taken away except what he saw, heard and knew.

Thinking of this, he looked around and continued:

"Now that the matter of the 'Angel of Time' Amon's clone has been resolved, it's time for you to fulfill another promise.

Colin nodded, put away his extraordinary characteristics, and walked towards the exit of the basement:

"Come on, I'll take you to the library."

…

His thoughts returned to his real body. Klein did not delay and quickly came above the gray fog. Not long after, he heard the prayers from the City of Silver and received the sacrifice of "Chief" Colin.

Looking at Amont and the Time Worm lying obediently on the long bronze table, Klein curled his lips in disdain.

He could still make a powerful talisman out of the "Time Worm" that had lost its characteristics, which was considered to be making the best use of it. However, the Sequence 3 Beyonder characteristics that were brought together by Amon's power were a hot potato. He didn't dare to bring it into reality at all, because the characteristics that had reached this stage were enough to attract Amon's attention and easily expose his position, even if it was made into a magical item.

"It seems that we can only leave it to Pales. He should have a way to isolate Amon's perception... Well, I can ask Leonard to convey my intentions at the Tarot Club."

Muttering, Klein threw this "Amon" into the pile of miscellaneous items behind the high-back chair, letting Him stay with other magical items and extraordinary characteristics. Under the suppression of the "Source Castle", he was not worried that this "Thief" Sequence 3 characteristic would do anything bad.

After dealing with the spoils, he once again cast his gaze towards the illusory halo created by Colin Iliad's prayer, watching the Sequence 4 Demon Hunter silently preparing for the ceremony, moving the remains of powerful creatures he had killed in the past, and setting up a complex altar. With the help of his spiritual intuition, he recalled what he had just read in the ancient books in the library in the spire tower of the City of Silver.

In the brief time before the historical projection disappeared, he selected several books with great purpose and read through them as quickly as possible, so that he could savor them carefully.

Most of the content was the history of the Second Era that he did not yet understand or was difficult to confirm. Unfortunately, there was not much of this content in the books in the City of Silver, and there was no information about the "Dark Angel" Sasriel that he was going to deal with. A small part was ancient myths and legends, and Klein got the information he needed from them:

Information about the "Dark Wolf" and "God of Wishes" Kotal.

Of course, many records in the book were not related to this "miracle worker", but were conclusions drawn by Klein through his own exploration. For example, the city-state ruins not far north of Silver City had a high-level existence of the "diviner" path hidden, which naturally made Klein think of Kotar, and the intelligence provided by the Goddess of Night did not mention this, which made him very interested.

In addition to these purposeful explorations, Klein also discovered some anomalies: the library of the City of Silver did not have any records about the two "god-level sealed objects", and when he tentatively asked the "Chief" why he did not use these two sealed objects as the source of the "god's blessing", the other party said that they would not bestow blessings.

"From the chief's expression, I can tell that they have a sense of dependence on the 'God-level Sealed Artifacts', but they are also deeply wary of them... This makes me even more curious. Unfortunately, as an outsider, I have no chance to touch the two sealed objects. Otherwise, even if I just took a look at them or touched them, I would be able to get help from them in the future with the help of historical projection..."

He actually suspected that the two sealed objects were kept deep underground in the Twin Towers, because when talking about the blessing of the gods, the "Chief" subconsciously looked in that direction.

Unfortunately, even the vision of Sefirah Castle could not penetrate that hidden area, unless he could personally go deep underground and pray to himself for a response.

Klein sighed with regret as he became more and more aware of the importance of "connections" to an ancient scholar. Seeing that the chief's ceremony was ready, he picked out the relatively exquisitely cut paper figure from the pile of miscellaneous items, attached the "Source Castle" and his own power, and threw it into the aperture.

Immediately, the holy light and angels with twelve pairs of wings surrounded the "demon hunter".

————

Two days later, crimson rays of light flashed, and all members of the Tarot Club gathered again around the long bronze table.

After Justice led everyone to greet Mr. Fool as usual, Derrick the Sun stood up again, bowed to the head of the long table with some excitement, and said:

"Dear Mr. Fool, thank you for your help and blessing to the City of Silver. Our Chief has been promoted to Sequence 3!"

Alas, compared to exploring alone in the dark "God-Forsaken Land", I feel more accomplished at times like this... Klein smiled secretly behind the gray fog and nodded,

"A small thing."

Only then did he notice that the "Queen" Angel, who was sitting next to his left, was also looking at him.

A sense of tension immediately diluted the joy in his heartDo you want to become a god too?Chapter 1054 Do you want to become a god too?

Above the gray fog, Klein the Fool was becoming increasingly afraid to face the Queen's gaze.

This was not only because of the guilt and uneasiness caused by concealing her identity, but also because this Tarot Club member had been promoted to an angel. With the power of the "City of Disaster" under her control, she was able to truly compete with "The Fool".

Although Klein still has an absolute advantage in the gray fog and within the control range of the "Source Castle", Angel's combat power has an absolute advantage in reality. This has been verified by Amon's many clones, Zaratul's historical projection, and even the "Red Angel" evil spirit that has temporarily recovered to Sequence 1.

Fortunately, she is mine, in every sense... If it weren't for the person in her mirror who seemed to want me to continue hiding it, I would have revealed my cards long ago... Klein dodged a little at first under Angel's gaze through the gray fog, but then he became calm and finally spoke directly:

"You guys get started."

The Tarot Club has stopped accepting Russell's diaries recently, because other than Leonard "The Star" who submitted several duplicate diaries, other members have been unable to collect new diaries.

As soon as he finished speaking, Angel turned towards him and asked softly:

"Dear Mr. Fool, do you know anything about the status of Sealed Artifact 0-01?"

Here we come!

Klein's expression froze. He was fully aware of Angel's movements during this period and had anticipated this question, but he still couldn't help but feel a little nervous when the time came.

The reactions of other Tarot Club members also varied. Wild Beyonders such as "Sun" Derrick and "Moon" Emlyn lacked sufficient sensitivity to this string of numbers, but officials such as Alger and Leonard, as well as the knowledgeable "Hermit" Cattleya, all pricked up their ears and listened carefully to the conversation.

This is a "0" level sealed item, and it's the one at the top of the list!

Even if they only know some details, it is a great opportunity for them to broaden their horizons and deepen their understanding of mysticism.

After all eyes were focused on him, Klein the Fool chuckled and asked in a teasing tone,

"This is the uniqueness of the Red Priest path. Do you plan to become a Conqueror and compete for the still vacant throne?"

What? Godhood? Becoming a true god?

Now, even Emlyn, Fors and others who were unfamiliar with the nickname "0-01" sat up straight and looked at Angel with undisguised eyes, showing shock, confusion and envy.

Can this kind of thing be discussed in front of them?

After learning about the law of acting, the law of conservation of extraordinary characteristics and the law of indestructibility, as well as "Sequence 0", everyone in the Tarot Club established a correct understanding of the existence of gods, knowing that they also took magic potions to advance step by step and finally reached the top of the path to God.

But possessing knowledge and accepting and understanding knowledge are two different things. Even the ambitious "Hanged Man" Alger, "Moon" Emlyn who thinks he is the savior of the vampire race, and "Hermit" Cattleya who has seen through the world of mysticism, do not think that they have any chance of becoming gods. At most, they just focus on the stage of "saint", and the thought of "maybe there is a chance to become an angel" flashes through their minds.

And now, Miss "Queen", who was the first to become an angel in the Tarot Club and whose power surpassed everyone except Mr. Fool, has actually begun to plan her own "Stairway to God"?

In addition to being shocked, the "Hermit", who had a deeper understanding of the special nature of the "Red Priest"'s path, secretly looked at the "world" at the end of the long table and found that the other party did not seem to react much to this matter.

Surrounded by gazes filled with various emotions, Angel shook his head and replied,

"I just want to try to keep this seal in my own hands... I have no plans to switch paths for the time being."

As she spoke, she also looked towards the "world" Klein in the distance and found that his body hidden under the gray fog and cloak had obviously relaxed, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up.

What are you laughing at? This isn't funny at all... Thanks to his control over the gray fog, Klein was able to see Angel's hidden smile. He muttered to himself and simply knocked on the table with his knuckles. He said in a serious tone,

"This sealed object was contaminated by the power of the 'Source' in the Fourth Epoch. It can only be sealed and cannot be used. Moreover, only Beyonders who have not yet become demigods can approach it safely. If you want to obtain it, you can only do so through someone else's 'agent'."

"I understand, Mr. Fool." Angel was not surprised by the Fool's knowledge of the Source, and immediately nodded and replied, "I already have a suitable candidate. I implore you to give her the blessing of the gods and some extra attention when you take action."

This is the limit of what I can do, nothing more... Klein laughed secretly and repeated what he had just said to Derrick:

"It's just a small matter."

He was also looking forward to Elaine Soren's action of contacting "0-01". After all, apart from "0-08", this was the second "0" level sealed object with an official number that he might see and touch with his own eyes. The goodwill shown by the Church of Knowledge to Angel also showed that they would not set up too many obstacles in this matter.

As for whether Angel would suddenly make up his mind to be promoted to "Conqueror", although Klein was a little worried, he couldn't do much.

"Unless the 'Original Witch' who occupies the top of the 'Witch' Path dies..."

An unrealistic idea suddenly popped up in his mind, and then even he was shocked. After a moment, he knocked on the table again and ordered:

"You can continue."

The Tarot Club members, still shocked by the previous topic, began to trade one after another, but their voices were much lower than usual, as if they felt that compared with the Queen's attempt to become a god, any transaction seemed cliché and not worth mentioning.

Fortunately, they had all experienced many ups and downs psychologically, and they quickly adjusted their mindsets. The magical item "Black Knight" that "Justice" Audrey ordered from "The Hermit" had been completed and became a pair of lace gloves decorated with diamonds suitable for noble ladies to wear on a daily basis. It could not only graze the souls of Beyonders not higher than Sequence 3, but also unleash the "Blade of Flesh and Soul" that could harm both the physical and spiritual bodies during the attack. In addition, at Audrey's request, it could also stretch and deform to a certain extent, and could adapt to palms of different sizes.

I wonder if it can be worn on a dragon's claw... Audrey imagined herself transforming into a mythical creature, and in her heart she puffed up her cheeks and roared.

With the help of the "Hermit", Leonard's "Faceless Man" characteristic was made into a bracelet that can change appearance and body shape. Looking at his satisfied smile, Angel guessed that Sherman's "Frenzy Ring" would soon be back in his hands.

In addition, the "Witch King" trait she obtained after hunting the "Secret Saint" was also ordered by "Moon" Emlyn for 45,000 pounds, but the latter asked Angel to keep it for half a year so that he could buy it after he digested the Sequence 5 potion.

Of course, even the slow-witted "Sun" Derrick could see that Emlyn was stalling to save money instead of worrying about his performance.

At this point, the legacy of the "Secret Saint" has finally been digested by the Tarot Club, and almost all participants have improved their strength to a certain extent. This can be regarded as the final contribution made by the Saint of the Aurora Club to everyone.

Having received generous commissions from these transactions, Cattleya looked around with satisfaction, and her eyes finally stopped at Angel. She said,

"Recently, I learned about a sect that is not very widespread at sea. They worship all kinds of natural disasters, such as tsunamis, hurricanes, and earthquakes, but they also believe that devout faith can avoid these disasters... Have you heard of the 'Witch Church'?"

"I heard from some sailors and pirates that they believe in the 'essence of disaster' and do not exclude believers from believing in other gods at the same time. The headquarters is located in a port city deep in the violent sea... The church there is called 'St. Angelica Church'."

Alger took over the conversation and added, looking at Angel with a meaningful look.

In fact, he had long guessed that these believers were secretly developed by "Queen" Angelica Thatch. At first, he thought that this was the "anchor" that was necessary after reaching Sequence 2. However, after learning that the other party might launch an attack on Sequence 0, he felt differently.

Is Miss Queen already preparing to become a true god?

Is she so confident that she can become a true deity, on par with the high and mighty gods and Mr. Fool AprilChapter 1055 April

In addition to the two members, "The Hanged Man" and "The Hermit", who were more informed of the news at sea, "Magician" Fors had also been to the "Church of St. Angelica" in person, and subconsciously cast his eyes on Angel, who sat next to Mr. Fool. Even if the other members had never heard of the "Witch Church", they knew the name of the only angel in the Tarot Club. Soon, all eyes were on her.

Only Derrick, who was in the God-Forsaken Land and whose mind was full of Silver City's internal affairs, asked with some doubt:

"The Witch Church? Is it the secret organization that believes in evil gods that you mentioned before?"

"That's the 'Witch Cult'," Alger corrected casually. "The 'Witch Church' that reveres disasters but does not spread them is currently only preaching in the 'Dream City' of Patis. Its followers are limited to the residents of the city and some sailors who frequently travel to and from the port. I estimate that the number of people will not exceed 10,000. The official members of the church should only be in the three digits?"

He said the last sentence with a question in his eyes, looking at Angel.

I should have changed the name and built a church. Now I can't hide it from my acquaintances... But the requirement for the "anchor" forces me to preach publicly... Angel complained in his heart and shook his head.

"Not that many, actually."

——Including Triss, Sherman, and Elaine, some Beyonder sailors from the Redhead Fleet, and the witch Tia who had just been abducted into the church, there were no more than twenty people who could be considered official members of the church, not even as many as the clergy of any of the three major churches in Tingen City.

Not only is the number of people small, but Angel's "Witch Church" is also very unhealthy in organization. Apart from herself, the patron angel, there is only one demigod, Archbishop Triss, and the highest of the rest is only Sequence 5. Without bypassing Angel herself, the Orthodox Church can just gather a team of official Beyonders to wipe out this new church.

But the others didn't know Angel's inner emotion and loss. In their eyes, Angel's answer was tantamount to admitting that the "Witch Church" was founded by her, and she even openly occupied a city and began to preach openly.

This is the privilege of the Orthodox Church. Even old secret organizations such as the Witch Sect and the Aurora Society dare not openly set up churches to publicize their ideas.

Thinking of this, Alger quietly looked at Mr. Fool, wondering whether the Queen's actions had the tacit approval or even encouragement of the god. After all, the Rorsted Archipelago where the Dream City was located was under the control of the Church of Storms, and the silence of the Punisher itself indicated a certain problem.

But under the gray fog, Mr. Fool's tall figure stood still, obviously not intending to comment on it.

That means tacit consent... Is this the interference of the revived gods in the secular world, or is it the process of redividing the "territory" among the gods... Thoughts flashed through the mind of "The Hanged Man" Alger. Thinking of the Sequence 4 potion materials that he had no hope of obtaining for a long time, he spoke after careful consideration:

"Dear Mr. Fool, last time you ordered me to go to Sonia Island to search for elven ruins. Just two days ago, I bypassed the blockade of the Feysac Navy and entered the primeval forest of Sonia Island. I found a ruin that is said to have been the residence of the elven royal family... I want to know if it will be dangerous to continue exploring it?"

His trip to Sonia Island was actually arranged by the Church of Storms, and it was also a mission he took the initiative to strive for. His purpose was to avoid the direct battlefield between Loen and the Feysac Navy, and to carry out a secret operation behind enemy lines that was called sabotage but was actually just a slacking off, so as to accumulate certain merits in a relatively safe way.

During the fierce battle on the front line, as long as Alger and the sailors he led did not cause too much trouble to the Feysac people, no demigod would come to personally deal with these guerrillas.

But at this time he packaged the matter as "following the orders of Mr. Fool" with the purpose of getting the god to give him some support.

After all, all the members of the Tarot Club have either been promoted to demigods or have already seen hope. For him, a "veteran", the pressure is really too much.

Behind the gray fog, Klein watched the Hanged Man's expression change several times. Having guessed his thoughts, he laughed secretly and replied in the tone of a Fool:

"Before entering the ruins, pray for my blessing."

When he initially mastered the power of "Source Castle", his paper substitute already possessed the power of an angel, and could defend against most spying and attacks against spirits. With the "Lord of Storms" occupying the top of the path, even if some power of the elves remained in the ruins, it would not exceed this limit.

This is the reason why Klein dared to agree to the Hanged Man's request.

"Thank you for your generosity!"

Alger bowed excitedly and decided to organize the sailors to explore the elven ruins after the party.

As for the reason, it was of course to ambush the passing Feysac people, observe the terrain in advance, and set traps.

As he imagined that the exploration of the ruins would yield some results, Cattleya, the Hermit, looked at the Fool cautiously, her eyes flickering under her thick glasses.

After a moment, she withdrew her gaze, hid her doubts in her heart, looked around, and said:

"The severe cold will soon pass, and Intis's naval fleet will soon head south to attack the coast of Loen."

As a half-Intis person trained by the "Mysterious Queen", most of the sailors in the fleet are "Admirals of the Stars" with Intis and Feysac bloodlines. She inevitably has certain tendencies in the war. This time, Intis' intelligence department also found her, hoping that she could "make some contributions to the motherland" in the war.

In this way, she was able to get this information in advance.

Hearing her words, the Loen people in the Tarot Club frowned, with undisguised worry on their faces.

————

The long Tarot Club ended. Klein watched the members leave one by one in the crimson light. He waited for a while in the palace in the gray fog and assisted several members who had reached a deal to exchange items. He bestowed the extraordinary characteristics of Amon's clone on "Star" Leonard before returning to the fog of history. He then passed through the historical pores to return to the real world and sighed in the silent wilderness where lightning flashed from time to time.

On the one hand, he sighed for having taken on many "blessing" tasks in the Tarot Club, and on the other hand, he was worried that Loen, far away in the northern continent, would soon be besieged by the other three major countries.

"Don't wait for me to find a way to be promoted to 'Miracle Master'. When I left the God-Forsaken Land, I found that Loen had been destroyed and my home had been robbed..."

While fishing out the lantern that originally belonged to him from the mist of history, he complained to ease his inner emotions.

Although he had only been a Loen person for a year and a half, he still had a sense of belonging to this country because he had combined the memories of "Klein" and inherited his interpersonal relationships. In addition, the Church of Evernight had done its utmost for him. It was neither reasonable nor logical for him to want this country to be devastated in the war, nor for the Goddess of Evernight to fail or even perish in the war of gods.

"The only good news is that the strength of the Tarot Club members is steadily improving... The Hanged Man may be able to find an opportunity to advance in the Elven Ruins; The Moon has reserved the Beyonder characteristics of Sequence 4, and the potion formula can definitely be provided by the Blood Clan; although the Pales in Leonard's body has been reduced to Sequence 2, there is no problem protecting him; Miss Justice is also consolidating her demigod status, but I don't know if there is still hope of contacting the Psychological Alchemy Society..."

The conditions of the Tarot Club members flashed through his mind one by one, and Klein suddenly realized that he had to work harder.

At least he couldn't let Angel get too anxious and finally pin his hopes on the "Conqueror"... He suddenly shuddered, raised the lantern, let the dim light illuminate the area around him, found the right direction, and walked forward step by step.

His destination is the ruins of the Norse city-state north of Silver City, where clues to his promotion may be hidden.

————

"Dear Miss Angelica, I am Elaine Soren, and this letter comes from Azshara, the capital of Renburg, a city shrouded in the clouds of war.

"...Since I entered Lenburg from Intis in mid-February, I have traveled to almost all towns and most villages in this small country, searching for documents and materials in various places in formal or illegal ways...At this time, William and Tia are still looking through the stolen files, but I think I can draw the following conclusions...

"There is no city called 'Morola' in this country."

Having written this, Elaine, who was lying on the table, stopped writing hesitantly, as if she was somewhat dissatisfied with the answer that took her two months to come up with.

She turned her head to look at William, who was quickly flipping through documents in another room, searching for keywords with a mechanically precise gaze, and Tia, who was yawning beside her. She clenched the pen in her hand and continued writing:

"…If the investigation makes no progress, can we be allowed to contact the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom in Azshara directly?"

Then, Elaine wrote some other progress of the investigation into the letter, carefully folded the letter paper, stuffed it into an envelope purchased locally with an open book and an all-seeing eye painted on it, set up a simple altar, and summoned her newly contracted messenger - a white-feathered bird only the size of her thumb.

Watching the messenger struggling to pick up the envelope and get into the spirit world, Elaine was a little worried whether it could deliver the letter safely to its destination. She decided to tell Miss Angelica the conclusion directly through prayer later, and then remind her that there was a more detailed report in the letter.

"When will I have a powerful messenger with four heads, or a cute and docile black cat..."

She sighed a few words and was about to go to William to check the search results of this part of the information, when her spirit became alert and her eyes naturally looked towards the door of the rented apartment.

The next second, the door was blown open from the outside, and a group of strangers wearing white robes or armor squeezed into the living room. The old man in the lead had completely white hair and wore a plain white robe inlaid with brass threads. His gray-green eyes immediately locked onto Elaine, who was surrounded by flames.

The intuition and premonition of the "Reaper" made Elaine immediately give up the idea of ​​attacking.

She had no confidence that she could escape the pursuit of a saint while surrounded by a team of official extraordinary people.

Seeing that she had wisely given up resistance, the old man nodded imperceptibly, smiled and ordered:

"Take this wanted criminal and the stolen documents with you."

It turned out that it wasn't because I secretly set up the altar to perform the ceremony, I was just searching for the stolen documents… Elaine breathed a sigh of relief, her eyes glancing towards the room where William and Tia were before, her expression froze.

Her two men had long since disappeared
