At this moment, he finally felt like he understood the true meaning of "Joker". That is, "Although he can predict his fate a little, he still feels helpless about his fate, so he uses a smile to cover up all the sadness, pain, confusion and depression."
At the same moment, Klein clearly felt the "Joker" potion being digested, which meant that his understanding of the true meaning of "Joker" was correct.
"It's actually like this..." Klein suddenly felt dumbfounded. He had thought so much about the true meaning of the clown's potion digestion, but he never expected to realize it under such circumstances.
But in the end Klein just showed a bright smile.
No matter what, it is a good thing for him to understand the true meaning of "Joker", so that he can digest the clown potion faster, be promoted to a higher sequence, and be able to play more of his own role in this dangerous world.
The power of protection.
You can also get closer to the truth.
"What is the secret behind my time travel? Is that fellow lying to me, or does he really know something..." Linn's Riddler's words came to mind, and Klein looked up at the crimson moon in the sky, almost helpless.
I can't help but think back to the silver moon in my hometown.
Klein suddenly felt a little homesick.
He misses his parents, his best friends, the computers, Coke and chicken wings on earth, and the things he once took for granted but can no longer see.
"Can I still go home?"
Klein asked himself silently, his expression confused and slightly frightened, but he became determined the next second.
"I can definitely go home."
Even though he felt a little sorry for Benson and Melissa, Klein could not deceive his heart, nor could he not miss his family on Earth.
"Huh, let's do some divination on the gray fog first and see if we can get any clues." Klein sighed, then walked four steps backward and arrived above the gray fog.
It’s just that I don’t know whether it was because a high-sequence expert was involved or because there was insufficient information, so the divination did not yield results this time.
For this reason, Klein was far from disappointed. After feeling his physical and mental exhaustion, he decided to take a good rest first.
…
The next day, morning.
When Klein, who had regained his strength, arrived at the Blackthorn Security Company, he saw a special visitor before he could ask about Azik's child's skull.
It was a man wearing a black windbreaker and a white shirt. His age was estimated to be in his thirties. His hair was shaved very short and was a common golden brown hair. His eyes were dark green. The collars of his shirt and windbreaker were standing high.
The entire chin was hidden in shadow.
——Sword of the Goddess Crestel Sesima, one of the nine senior stewards of the Nighthawks.
In the Church of the Night, the thirteen archbishops and nine senior deacons are already the upper echelons of the church in the usual sense. Among them are many high-ranking powerful men. What is more important is that these twenty-two gentlemen and ladies are complete in terms of status.
They are equal, only follow the oracle of the goddess of the night, and are only responsible to the Pope.
The reason why the goddess's sword Crestel Sesima appears here is because he brought the oracle of the goddess of night.
"Oracle? The goddess gave an oracle?"
If Klein could remain calm because he didn't have much reverence and faith in the gods, Leonard next to him was clearly shocked. The poet classmate had completely lost his usual lazy look at this moment, and he was almost shocked.
Jump up.
"Yes, the goddess has issued an oracle." Crested Sesima looked at Klein and Leonard in front of him with a serious expression, and said in a low voice:
"Kleon, Leonard, according to the will of the goddess, the two of you will be transferred to Backlund and become members of the Nighthawks team there. At the same time, you will perform a secret mission to find the angel [Red Scarf]."
The last "red scarf" was naturally pronounced by Crestel Sesima in Chinese, but as someone who has never been exposed to Chinese, Crested Sesima's accent can be imagined.
Ahem... Klein, who was originally nervous, almost laughed on the spot because of the "red scarf", but as a "clown", he still controlled his expression and saluted with Leonard next to him.
road:
"Praise the goddess, your will is my will."
"Praise the goddess." Crestel Sesima also drew a red moon on her chest, and then said:
"You have three days to prepare before leaving. Since your schedule is mainly to carry out secret missions, the church will also provide you with a corresponding reimbursement amount for your expenses after arriving in Backlund..."
"The church's intention is that this matter should not be made public, so although it will secretly support your actions, it will not openly search for that person..." Crested Sesima continued:
"My personal suggestion is that after you arrive in Backlund, you'd better make a fake identity and use the fake identity to get into the circle of those wild Extraordinary people. This can help you better understand the information. You also know about the things that are hidden underground.
Wild Extraordinaries are always wary of official people.”ωωw..net
"In this regard, you can go through the church's channels. We have a department dedicated to providing identity certificates to colleagues who perform secret missions. Although the identity obtained in this way is a false identity, it is also an identity recognized by the government."
"The church also has some knowledge of Backlund's circle of wild Beyonders, and has placed informants in many underground gatherings. After you arrive in Backlund, you can find out this information from your colleagues who are specifically responsible for this aspect.
"
Although it was a personal suggestion, after listening to the words of Crested Sesima who had arranged this set of procedures, Klein and Leonard looked at each other. Even Leonard, who was more sluggish,
In retrospect, using a false identity to contact wild Extraordinary people and find that angel must have been the intention of the church's higher-ups. However, the church couldn't explain this clearly, so it used the term "personal suggestion."
Of course, this is normal. After all, it is a secret mission. Naturally, it is impossible to do it arrogantly under an official status. There is no "secret" at all.
In fact, every major church has members who perform secret missions, wearing different vests and hanging around in different circles.
For example, this is the case with Alger. Although the major forces are well aware of his identity as a member of the Church of Storms, in the eyes of ordinary extraordinary people, he is just the captain of the Blue Ghost and an ordinary pirate.
In response to this, Klein and Leonard naturally did not refuse. They nodded and said: "Okay, we understand."
