Mystery: emerging from the wilderness of knowledge

Chapter 159 Three Plans
  Bernadette sat on a chair and rested for a while. After feeling herself recovered, she reached out and wiped the blood stains running from the corners of her eyes on her face.

The look she looked at Renekton had some unclear meaning. What she was sure of was that the very vague figure she spied was the Hermit. This was the perception of her own path as a master of prophecy.

"Did He let me see it on purpose?"

The only reason Bernadette could think of for seeing that figure was this.

What really puzzled Bernadette was that he was not a hidden sage.

Was Sequence 0 of the Hermit Path finally occupied by someone else?

Bernadette even had some doubts about whether the other party could be her father.

She knew that her father was once the Knowledge Emperor of Sequence One, and she hoped that her father had not really died.

Renekton and Klein looked at each other without speaking. Bernadette clearly saw something through the prophecy.

Bernadette reorganized her thoughts, looked at Renekton with a somewhat scrutinizing look in her eyes and said:
  "You should know that the Elemental Dawn has been fighting against the Trappist Order of Morse."

He picked up the tea cup on the table, took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, and at the same time organized the words in his mind, and then said:
  "These matters have nothing to do with the Moss Trappist Order. They are not collaborators and are not included."

After seeing Bernadette showing interest in this, Renekton continued:
  "The Hidden Sage relies on the uniqueness of instinctive actions most of the time, so he behaves crazy, but he can escape from this state when needed."

Bernadette listened quietly, and she did not interrupt Renekton's words.

The relationship between the Hidden Sage and the Moss Ascetic Order is indeed very delicate. Although the Moss Ascetic Order believes in the Hidden Sage, the Hidden Sage rarely responds to them. He just keeps chasing every spy.

After making some guesses and thoughts in her mind, Bernadette nodded slightly and said:

"Tell me why you came to see me. I think it has something to do with the opportunity you mentioned."

"Yes." After hearing Bernadette's words, Renekton knew that the other party had made a choice. His eyes lit up and he immediately nodded in response:
  "The Aurora Society will plan an event for the arrival of the True Creator in December of this year. At that time, the True Creator will descend as a serial two-person incarnation."

"Kill this incarnation before Dark Night and Storm react, and you can complete the promotion ceremony."

Unexpectedly, Bernadette didn't show much reaction, and just said calmly:
  "What's your plan?"

"The incarnation of the true Creator will actively seek death. All we have to do is kill him in the shortest possible time."

"I will pray to the Hidden Sage in advance and let him temporarily increase your strength to the level of Sequence 2. It can only be Sequence 2. If it is more, your own will will inevitably be assimilated."

Bernadette's eyes flashed, she looked at Renekton playfully and said:
  "Why not upgrade your strength to Sequence Two?"

"At that time, I will also briefly call on the power of the sage, and the price will be borne by the clone of the true creator who resides in me!"

Renekton directly stated the agreement between himself and the clone of the True Creator.

"No wonder He takes up residence in you."

Bernadette nodded slightly and did not question the plan. Since she had been found, the sealed artifacts she held must have been taken into account.

The two sages, coupled with the sealed artifacts they hold in their hands, and the blessing of the God of Knowledge on each other, are indeed capable of killing an incarnation of the evil god who actively seeks death in a short period of time.

The premise is that the incarnation of the evil god really wants to die.
  "If there are no additional changes, I can agree to this plan, but what can you give?"

Bernadette looked at Renekton with a sly look.

"Uh" paused for a moment. Renekton was silent for a while, thinking over and over in his mind what could attract Bernadette. After a while, he spoke:
  "I can provide you with three options to choose from."

"Oh?" Bernadette looked at Renekton in surprise.
  What the other party means is that there are three kinds of rewards that can satisfy you?
  Klein on the side also looked at Renekton in surprise. He thought that the other party would use Emperor Russell's information in exchange, but he did not expect that the other party would come up with several plans for the Mysterious Queen to choose from.

Renekton picked up three cups, placed them side by side on the dining table, and poured black tea into them one after another.

"The first option is to have the Hidden Sage mark all the Secret Peepers of the Dawn of Elements. After that, they will not encounter the problem of knowledge expelling people."

"But I personally don't think this plan is very good. Chasing knowledge and carrying pain can speed up their growth."

Renekton came up with the first solution he could do.

Klein, who was listening quietly on the sidelines, first asked:

"Why not make it less dangerous for hidden sages to drive knowledge away from people? Wouldn't that be better?"

Bernadette also stared at Renekton, waiting for the other party's answer.

After picking up the tea he poured and taking a sip, Renekton continued: "Knowledge is not something that can be obtained for nothing. This goes against the essence of pursuing knowledge."

Bernadette nodded in agreement: "What are the other two options?"

Klein looked at the Mysterious Queen in confusion and couldn't help but ask:
  "Don't you consider this plan?"

If knowledge can be avoided, this should be a thing of great benefit and no harm to Dawn, who has the key to discovering secrets.

Bernadette smiled slightly: "I am also very interested in the other two plans that can be put together."

Renekton continued to pour tea into the cup and said at the same time:
  "The characteristics of a knowledge emperor are of course not available now. You have to wait for a long time. There is a high probability that the end will come. If you choose this characteristic, you have chosen a camp. It is recommended to think carefully before making a decision."

Without waiting for the mysterious queen to wonder where the knowledge emperor's characteristics came from, she continued to speak out the third plan:
  "The third option is some information about Emperor Russell." Bernadette's eyes became extremely deep again, obviously losing focus, and her eyes were blank.

After a while, he returned to normal, his brows furrowed slightly, then relaxed again.

He picked up Renekton's third cup filled with tea, took a sip of tea, and then said:

"I choose the third option."

Renekton nodded without being too surprised:
  "I can tell you the information about Russell right now. Russell became a god in the end, but then he was killed by the Eternal Sun."

"But he, well, I should say he, jumped to the Black Emperor path. The special thing about this path is that you can return after death, as long as no new Black Emperor is born."

"He's not dead yet!?"

Bernadette stood up suddenly, her tone very excited, and the green pea trees around her continued to sway, as if dancing in the strong wind.

Renekton and Klein lowered their heads silently, waiting for the Mysterious Queen to calm down.

After a moment, everything around him calmed down, and Bernadette's tone returned to the calmness of the ancient well before:

"Any more news? We can make another deal."

"No more for now. I got this information from the All-Knowing One."

Renekton shook his head, no longer revealing Roselle's information, and at the same time passed the blame to the God of Knowledge.

"Omniscient?" Bernadette murmured a few words, then continued to ask:
  "Since he can still come back, why hasn't there been any movement after so long?"

"Maybe something went wrong, but as long as the tomb of the Black Emperor remains, and as long as a certain amount of the order he established remains, he can return from death."

Renekton shook his head and told Bernadette the conditions for the Black Emperor's resurrection.

Bernadette was silent for a moment, seeming to be thinking about something. After a while, she continued:

"Invisible creatures that roam the upper world, strange spirits that are friendly to humans, are the messengers of Bernadette Gustave alone."

"This is the summoning spell of my messenger. Remember to write to me a week in advance for your subsequent actions."

The surrounding green pea trees shrank back one by one, and the surrounding scene turned into a restaurant compartment again, and various sounds from outside the compartment could be clearly heard.

Bernadette's figure across the dining table also disappeared along with Pea Teng.

"gone?""

"Now it's time for us to enjoy our breakfast."

Renekton didn't pay much attention to Bernadette's departure.

Now that the cooperation has been negotiated and the information about Emperor Russell is known, Bernadette must go back and organize people to investigate the location of Russell's secret tomb.

"Do you think the Queen of Mystery paid?"

Klein looked at Renekton who was happily eating breakfast and asked aloud.

Renekton waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, I'm not short of the money."

Renekton took a sip of the milk that had been boiled with strange ingredients, and then silently placed the cup containing the milk farther away.

Klein took a deep breath and felt his poverty again.

Then I started to taste the sumptuous breakfast here.

"By the way, what do you think of the Hidden Sage?"

Klein asked his question while eating breakfast.

He didn't know much about the Hidden Sage. The only information he got from Old Neil's experience and the church's files allowed him to classify the Hidden Sage into the Evil God camp.

Renekton said without thinking: "My personal view on knowledge is: everything is a question, and everything must have an answer."

"The Hidden Sage is like a pure embodiment of knowledge. He has almost no desires and emotions. He just follows instinct to collect knowledge and spread knowledge."

"Personalized knowledge?" Klein seemed to be questioning, but also seemed to be saying to himself.

Then he thought about the information he knew about the Hidden Sage. Except for the extraordinary people who spy on the secret path, the Hidden Sage never took the initiative to talk to others.

"Then why did he become the evil god?" Klein asked the doubt in his heart.

"Except for the gods believed in by the Seven Righteous Gods Church, the others are collectively called evil gods, and they have nothing to do with their own good or bad."

After a pause, he added: "It has something to do with it. Those guys rejected by the Seven Gods all have their own problems, and none of them can be considered normal."
