Mystery: emerging from the wilderness of knowledge

Chapter 674 After the Air Raid
Johnson sighed a few times with mixed feelings, and his urgency for promotion increased even more.

"Compared to other methods, the requirements for the promotion ceremony for 'parasites' whose spiritual bodies are split are higher, and they need the support of a certain number of anchors."

"The battlefield might be a good choice, but it's relatively dangerous. I need to seek some help."

After muttering to himself, Johnsen saw the fleet of airships in the sky approaching his west district. His face turned ugly instantly. He quickly ran into the house, packed up his things, and prepared to leave Backlund first.

In the Hillston District, in Leppard's laboratory building, Triss, wearing simple men's clothing and with smooth black hair draped behind her, walked out of the shadows.

She looked at Leppard, who was standing by the window, staring blankly at the city that had just experienced a baptism of fire, and said in a flat tone:

"Go to the southern continent. Although there is a war going on there, they have been blocked in the coastal areas. Uttar Pradesh and the Pas River Valley inland are still safe. You can get the protection of the organization and continue to do your favorite research with peace of mind."

Leppard shook his head, his tone was somewhat sad, but he seemed calm as he said:

"I am from Loen. I was born and raised here. I have never thought of abandoning my homeland, even though it is not so beautiful."

Triss was not surprised by Leppard's reaction. This was not the first time she had raised this topic with him.

After two seconds of silence, she walked to Leppard's side, looked at the city outside through the glass window, and said calmly:
"But I have to leave. This place is no longer suitable for me to continue the ritual. I must leave. I will not come back until I succeed in the promotion or until the opportunity for revenge arises."

"Without my protection, you should understand what kind of situation you will be in."

"You're leaving?" Leppard's eyes widened, revealing a complex mix of emotions including nostalgia, reluctance, and panic.

Triss didn't look at Leppard. She didn't need to look to know what the other person's expression was. She didn't like that kind of look. Not to mention that she used to be a man, even if she was really a woman, she would not fall in love with an old, ugly, and boring man.

"I just came to inform you. Just give me a reply today. I will take those who are willing to leave to the southern continent."

After she finished speaking, Triss took two steps back. Her figure quickly became transparent and disappeared from Leppard's sight.

In the West District, in the office building of the Loen Charity Student Aid Fund, Klein rubbed his forehead tiredly. His good mood from having gained a lot in the Ghost Empire was gone.

If he had not arrived in time, Benson and Melissa would have fallen under Feysac's artillery fire.

"The war came too suddenly. It was a large-scale, all-out war. It was hard not to doubt whether the will of the man from the Southern Continent was involved."

"This level of war seems to be just enough to satisfy the Red Priest's ritual. I have a feeling that the long-lost Red Angel Medici will become active again. Is this also within their calculations?"

"Perhaps, I should let Melissa continue to advance, rather than stay at 'Generalist'. This sequence does not allow her to have the ability to protect herself. She must at least become a 'Craftsman' or an 'Astronomer'. As long as she does not advance to demigod, and knows how to act, Beyonders will not face too serious danger of losing control."

Boom!Boom!
The knock on the door interrupted Klein's muttering. He looked towards the door with some confusion.

As I approached, Audrey's figure spontaneously emerged in my mind. She came to me at this time because of the sudden outbreak of war?

While thinking, he had already opened the door and moved aside to let Audrey in. He did not close the door of the office, otherwise he was worried that some rumors about his identity would spread.

After placing a cup of freshly brewed black tea in front of Audrey, Klein returned to his seat and asked in a calm tone:
"Miss Audrey, are you worried about the war?"

Audrey nodded, with a sad look on her face, and she seemed to be in a low mood.
"Mr. World, why do you think the war broke out so suddenly?"

She directly addressed him as Mr. World instead of Klein’s current identity, indicating that she would rather talk to him as a member of the Tarot Club.

Klein nodded, leaned back slightly, and said carefully:
"From the perspective of war, taking the enemy by surprise will achieve better results."

"But more broadly speaking, this is an irreconcilable conflict between the Seven Gods. Of course, it may also be that the Southern Continent gave Feysac an offer that he could not refuse, asking them to attack Loen and force the Storm Church to return for assistance. Or perhaps, it was both."

"Irreconcilable conflicts among the seven gods"

Audrey muttered to herself. She did not pursue the topic, intuitively thinking that this might involve some secrets at the top of the sequence, and some plans of Mr. Fool.

After two seconds of silence, she asked again:
"Will this war develop to the same extent as the war between the Southern Continent and Intis?"

Klein nodded slightly and said, "Perhaps it will be more intense than the current situation in the southern continent." In essence, this war is a conflict between the "God of War" and the "Goddess of Night". It is caused by the uniqueness of the God of Death and is irreconcilable. No one will back down. In the end, there is a high probability that a war between gods will occur. A war that sweeps the world and involves all levels has begun.

He sighed, looked at Justice Audrey, and asked calmly:

"Are you worried that Loen will lose the war and be invaded by Feysac?"

"Justice" Audrey looked a little complicated and nodded slightly.

In the southern continent, Renekton and Roselle, who have returned to the Pas Valley, stayed at the Port of Orleston on the coast of the Raging Sea. This is one of the few well-preserved ports in the southern continent and will also be the main battlefield for the next battle.

Behind the street near the dock area, a mysterious church-like building stands quietly on the edge of a square surrounded by purple irises.

This is a church belonging to the "Evangelists", managed by the Church of Evangelism, which is led by the Moss Ascetic Order and incorporates parts of the Spiritual Order and the Dawn of Elements.

At present, they are mainly distributed in the Pas Valley and important cities in Uttar Pradesh, as well as the coastal areas which are the main battlefields for resisting Intis.

Under the church, at the end of a corridor with bright yellow lamps on both sides, there is a golden door made of bronze metal and engraved with many strange symbols and magical signs. Wisps of light white mist constantly emanate from it, bringing with it the breath of coldness and death.

The pale white mist quickly melted away under the bright yellow light, leaving no trace.

On the other side of the corridor, Renekton was holding the golden crown inlaid with many gems that he got from the "Ghost Empire". He calmly glanced at the bronze door from which light white mist was constantly pouring out, and turned to enter a room next to it.

In the empty room, stars appeared one after another, densely packed and dazzling.

These stars cast one brilliant ray after another, converging into mottled, floating light and shadows, covering the entire room.

Click!Click!
Crisp shattering sounds continued to ring out in the room, and the crown held in Renekton's hand broke into pieces, disintegrated in an instant, and turned into pieces.

As the crown was disintegrated by Renekton, a pale golden fluorescence continued to separate from the void at the original position of the crown, floating continuously in the room shrouded in mottled light and shadow.

These floating pale golden fluorescent lights occasionally twist into golden whirlpools, whirlpools full of chaos!

An extremely heavy and majestic aura spread out of thin air, causing the mottled light and shadows surrounding the area to shake, and chaos of varying degrees continued to occur.

The starlight continued to scatter, quickly filling the gaps caused by the "chaos" around it.

Renekton watched this scene expressionlessly. Silently, his hair became dry and dark. Many strange three-dimensional patterns intertwined, outlining one eye after another on his body. Strands of darkness poured out of his body, interweaving into an exaggerated black robe, giving rise to one cold and indifferent eye after another that flashed with pure light.

A brilliant starry sky is reflected in each eye, overflowing with dark blue or light purple starlight, which keeps sinking and evolves into a "wilderness" of floating light and shadow.

As this "wilderness" appeared, Renekton raised his hand and tugged at the floating light golden fluorescence. A distorted piece of gold was torn out from it and thrown into the "wilderness" where light and shadow were floating, burying it deeply.

He gathered the remaining pale golden spots of light in his hands, which quickly condensed into a piece of silver-white paper with many strange golden words drawn on it.

Renekton's figure blurred for a moment, then returned to normal. The surrounding "wilderness" and starlight disappeared in an instant, as if it was just an illusion.

Taking a step forward, his body instantly disintegrated into countless vast and pure knowledge, rushing out of the basement like a torrent.

In the dock area, in the captain's room of the "Dawn" docked in the port, countless knowledge passed through the windows, door panels, and walls, poured into the captain's room, and reconstructed Renekton's body.

He casually threw the silver-white paper in his hand to Roselle and said:

"It contains two copies of the 'Balancer' properties. You can separate one and give it to Nestor if he needs it."

Russell shook his head and said:

"He probably won't choose to jump. Of course, as a friendly force, I still have to ask him. Perhaps, he will be my Angel of Entropy in the future. Well, this name seems a bit strange. He can also be called a Fallen Angel or a Corrupted Angel."
