Klein and Little Zaratul had different expressions.
Either calm or complicated.
Little Zaratul stared at the young fortune teller in front of him.
After a moment, he suddenly chuckled: "Don't be so defensive about me... As you can see, I'm just a historical projection who can't do anything."
Klein was noncommittal.
Amon chuckled: "Okay, okay, let's get down to business. Who are you talking to about these nonsense?"
Although little Zaratul was unwilling to do so, he had no other choice at this point. He could only pretend to be calm and said: "The next journey will be more difficult. If you want to regret it, you can tell me at any time."
After saying that, he went to lead the way.
Klein looked at the back of the old man in black robe and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Finally, he quietly rubbed the black iron cross hidden in the palm of his hand with his fingertips.
The whole journey was silent.
It's night, and the red moon hangs high.
Everyone is less than one-third of the way to the peak palace.
Little Zaratul was leaning against the fire, with a one-eyed crow squatting on his shoulder.
While warming himself by the fire, he teased the crow marionette with his hands, and said in a faint tone: "At such a close distance, Antigonus should know that we are already here."
"Isn't he crazy?" Klein asked.
Zaratul smiled, "It is dangerous to be crazy, especially a madman who is infinitely close to the gods."
He glanced at Amon beside Klein, "No one will be able to help you then."
As soon as he heard this, Amon was unhappy at the time. He pinched his monocle and said, "Xiao Cha, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense. Do you think you're looking down on me?"
Little Zaratul still smiled.
If you do too much useless work, who says it can’t be turned into useful work?
Anyway, it doesn’t cost anything to try.
If God really has mercy and adds some trouble to Bertrand, that would be the best~
Klein ignored this.
The old stuff is so bad that you can't trust even a single punctuation mark.
But there was one thing he did need to consider carefully.
That is--
Why is Antigonus crazy?
Klein once asked Amon privately, but Amon said he didn't know either.
The literature only records that Antigonus was endlessly hunted by the Church of the Night after he took away the extraordinary attribute of Old Zaratul's 'Servant of Mysteries'.
Klein thought that it might be because the destruction of the Antigonus family reduced the number of anchor points and made Antigonus himself lose his rationality.
However, the Kingdom of Night still existed at that time, so this conjecture is not valid.
Also, the Church of the Night, or the goddess of the night, has a very strange attitude towards Antigonus.
‘The Fool’ and ‘Darkness’ are not adjacent.
Even if it is to rob other authorities, we should take advantage of the chaos to attack the 'Twilight Giant' and the 'Reaper'.
You must know that at that time, the Underworld Emperor Salinger was not the final winner of the Four Emperors War, and was still in the category of 'killable'.
strangeness.
It's so strange...
Klein couldn't figure out the answer to this question and stared at the red moon in the sky for a long time.
Somewhere in the dark, he had a premonition.
The Night Goddess and Jon deliberately set the place of trial at Honakis Peak. In addition to the extraordinary characteristics and legendary uniqueness, the truth hidden behind may be the focus of this trip...
Another four or five days passed in the blink of an eye.
Klein and his team finally reached the top of the mountain.
The Kingdom of Night is built on Honakis Peak. The mountainside is the kingdom of the living and the top of the mountain is the kingdom of the dead.
Of course, that's what it says.
In fact, the kingdom of the dead on the top of the mountain is just the result of Antigonus practicing the mysterious way by using spiritual threads to control the corpse to create signs that the dead are still active.
Klein recalled the content about the Kingdom of Darkness. "New Archeology" and "Archaeology Review" wrote this: "...a strange rule is that the closer to the top of the mountain, the more grand the ruins are. But what is surprising is that the top of the mountain is
There are no ruins. According to our speculation, there should be a palace here that does not look like a human building, and a temple used for worship."
In fact——
There are indeed grand buildings here, and it is a town, but it is just hidden.
And "Huo Feng Research" wrote this: "...the strangest thing is that no tombs of this country have been found in the entire area, giving people a strange illusion that their residents do not need to be buried, and they may not even be buried.
die.
This is contradictory to the content of the mural. In the mural, the people of this country believe that death is not the end, and that their dead relatives will protect themselves in the dark night, so they will leave their dead relatives at home, on their beds, and on their pillows.
Bian, three full days."
Taking a deep breath, Klein looked at little Zaratul, "Although we haven't reached the main Demon Wolf Palace yet, Mr. Zaratul, you can leave."
Little Zaratul reacted for a few seconds, but actually turned around and left without any nostalgia at all.
Amon whistled and moved closer to Klein: "You have to be careful, that guy is very sinister."
"It doesn't matter."
Klein's expression remained unchanged, "I have plenty of time, so I have plenty of time to fight with him."
After a pause, he added: "Let's go explore the city first."
Of course Amon doesn't care.
Follow Klein into the legendary Kingdom of the Dead.
After a while, little Zaratul, who had already left, suddenly appeared again at the entrance to the Kingdom of the Dead.
He stroked his beard and curled up into a sneer.
the other side.
Klein finally saw the weird scene in the steeple church in the foggy town again.
Lifeless corpses were hanging from the rafters of every house like bacon.
Those marionettes shouted 'Honakis...Fregera...'
Every cry crazily stirred up Klein's spiritual body threads.
Before the change, even with Amon's help, Klein might have joined in and become one of the many bacon.
But now.
He stabilized his spirituality and was not afraid to look into the eyes of the marionettes.
After pondering for a moment, Klein tentatively spoke: "Antigonus?"
Swish——
Many marionettes turned their heads together.
Staring at Klein with malicious eyes.
Klein was stared at with fury, but his suspicion was confirmed.
Suppressing the turmoil in his heart, he ignored the marionettes and instead said to Amon: "Just wait, it's not time yet..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Amon squeezed the monocle, somewhat confused by Klein's operation.
Klein shook his head and had no explanation.
He casually dispersed Amon's projection, turned around and slipped into the hole of history.
Today should be Monday in the real world
——Start the party day.
…
…
Gray fog filled the air.
The bronze palace seems to have remained unchanged forever.
Swipe down.
Men on the left and women on the right.
The members lowered their heads respectfully, with a humble attitude...
Well, except for one special guy.
Klein twitched the corner of his mouth, pretending that the person didn't exist, crossed his legs in an extremely skilled posture, propped his head with one hand, and said softly: "Let's get started."
Skip the greeting phase.
Klein relaxed and listened to the gathering members' experiences of the week.
Audrey extracted information about other members of the Psychological Alchemy Society from Hvin Rambis;
Alger's fleet is closer to its destination;
The Silver City where Derrick is located has entered a wartime state, turning the entire city into an indestructible war fortress;
And Forsi spent another leisurely week...
"That's great." Klein thought to himself.
After a pause, he calmly controlled the 'world' and said: "Gentlemen and ladies, if you know any secrets about the Church of the Night and the Antigonus family during the Fourth Age and the Four Emperors, you can tell me here
In exchange for a certain amount of reward.”
After saying this, everyone's eyes were focused on the usually taciturn 'White Wolf'.
Klein responded calmly.
At this time, classmate Leonard stood up and said with sharp eyes: "Mr. World, can I first ask you what you want to do to collect the secrets of the Church of Night?"
Although the attendance rate is lower.
But Leonard has now become a serious demigod-level powerhouse in the Church of the Night.
The future is bright.
He himself is a loyal believer of the goddess of the night. When he first heard the ulterior words of the 'White Wolf', he didn't lift the table...well, he couldn't lift it.
In short, being able to suppress your temper is all for Mr. Fool’s sake.
Klein had expected this to happen, and deliberately manipulated the 'White Wolf' to look at him respectfully.
Then, he chuckled and said, "Mr. Xingxing, don't get excited."
Leonard's heart trembled, he quickly sat down and apologized to Mr. Fool: "I'm sorry, I was rude."
"No, I don't think it is disrespectful for a person with devout faith to defend the church and gods he lives in. On the contrary, I appreciate your attitude very much."
Klein changed into a more comfortable position, "Lord Tranquility and I... ha, our relationship is extraordinary. You don't have to worry about His majesty being desecrated."
goddess?
Mother!
That relationship is not 'unusual'.
After a lot of training, Klein's face was much thicker than before. He didn't even consider the presence of Jon, who knew everything about him, and acted so naturally.
Each member has different thoughts.
Leonard was at a loss and kept his head hanging, not daring to raise it.
The 'White Wolf' spoke at the right time: "Mr. Star, I swear in the name of Mr. Fool that I will not have any disrespectful thoughts towards the goddess. The reason why I want to collect the secrets of the Church of Night is because..."
After pondering for a moment, he then said: "I don't want to hide it from you, because Klein Moretti, my friend who is also Mr. Fool's favorite, is in deep danger, and we urgently need to understand the past history to get out of the predicament."
What?
Klein!
Hearing this name, Leonard suddenly raised his head.
Klein, who was at the first place, felt a little moved.
As expected of a poet classmate, he worked hard in Tingen City with us. He was really concerned when he heard that something was wrong with him.
"Is Mr. Klein in trouble?"
"That gentle guy... Tsk, I seem to know some secrets recorded in the Vampire Clan. Wait, let me recall it."
"Not long ago, I got a manuscript from a sorcerer, which seems to contain records from the Four Emperors period."
Klein has three identities and is active in the Church of Fools and the Tarot Society.
A ‘fool’.
a ‘world’.
There is also a ‘Cline Moretti’, who is himself.
Almost all members of Backlund's Tarot Club know that Mr. Fool is very optimistic about this favored one, and even Alger, one of the "Gathering Elders", has cooperated with him.
Such a beloved person is in danger?
Klein also thought of this, decisively applied a patch, and chuckled: "Although it is a trial, I do not have a rule not to invite foreign aid... Well, he is a smart little guy."
Oh, so that’s it~
Everyone was stunned.
Only Jon twitched his lips.
We have to use such tricky methods to conquer Antigonus. It seems that young Ake's test results are not ideal.
Rolling his eyes, he suddenly had a wonderful (and very damaging) idea, and said: "Mr. Xingxing, I know that Klein is your friend, why don't you... go and help him?"
Leonard was slightly startled when his name was suddenly called.
To be honest, he really wanted to help Klein.
but……
Leonard looked up cautiously, "Mr. Fool, your will is my direction."
Everyone in Klein was dumbfounded.
No, I just want to brainstorm and try to deduce the reason for Antigonus' madness from clues. Why did you throw your fellow poet into the Hornakis Peak for no reason?
Eh.
Wait a moment.
The poet classmate is not alone.
Grandpa Pales still lives in his body...
Just thinking about it.
Jon added: "By the way, Miss Kleine has a very close relationship with Klein. When the matter is settled, you might as well ask him to use this as a reward to set up a connection between you and Miss Kleine."
Smiling easily: "We are not family but we are better than family. There is nothing wrong with getting closer."
Leonard was originally thinking about rushing to help Klein.
Upon hearing this, his whole body froze in place like a tree.
Uncontrollably, a pretty figure flashed before his eyes, and his face turned red as if on fire.
There is no stupid person here.
Even though Derrick seemed a little slow due to his young age, he could still sense that something was wrong with Leonard's state.
This is……
Shy?
"Mr. Destiny, I, I didn't. No, really not!"
It's rare to see Leonard so embarrassed.
The other members, including Cattleya, who was exiled to the Wilderness of Knowledge shortly after joining, all laughed.
Klein shuddered.
Good guy.
You are here to fuck me!
But……
In the current situation, he really needs the help of the strong men of the Gou San family.
Suppressing the uneasiness in his heart, Klein said softly: "I am happy to see you all so harmonious."
Jon also added, "You don't have to worry about the affairs of the Church of Night. I will tell the Goddess of Night personally about this matter."
That’s it!
Leonard was delighted.
I don’t know if it’s because I can help my good brother, or because I can meet the witch lady I dream of.
All in all, he was happy.
Smiling like a peony flower.
Klein's mood was complicated.
Not only did she feel reassured by her upcoming help, but she also felt at ease with Leonard’s strange feelings towards ‘Clyne’…
never mind.
all will be good.
Let's do this first.
…
The party is over.
Leonard ignored Mr. Pales's nagging and arranged the prayer ceremony seriously.
Decorate the spiritual wall with a sterling silver knife.
He nodded four times on his chest and began to pray for the goddess's attention.
The ceremony was a success.
Dimly, Leonard heard the goddess's voice.
Before asking the question, the goddess of the night said something to Leonard in a calm and holy voice.
"It's okay, go pursue happiness, I agree."
Leonard took a deep breath and said word by word with great piety: "Praise the goddess!"
