Conan: Start with three choices, but sequence potion

Chapter 216 The long-awaited Security Council meeting
On the island of the soul.

The thick sea of fog has become very heavy. It is no longer in the dominant form of "fog" like before, and it rarely churns anymore. It just flows quietly and has begun to take on a black color.

The grayish-white fog also changed into a darker color. It could no longer be called "grayish-white fog", but a purer gray fog.

The countless crimson stars scattered around seemed to have their own breath, flickering in different rhythms.

The fortune teller An He was dressed in an exquisite suit, holding a gold-studded cane that he had previously snatched from the thief An He.

“Now I am also a noble Sequence 5, and I am only one step away from being promoted to a powerful demigod!”

"An An He joke." The thief An He took off his crystal glasses and wiped them. "The guy who pretends to be a saint every day is actually a mid-sequence."

"What's wrong with the mid-sequence?" The fortune teller An He said indignantly, "Even if you haven't eaten pork, have you never seen a pig run? When Klein played the Fool, he wasn't even a Beyonder."

"I know you're in a hurry, but don't worry." The thief An He just casually made a combo, "Anyway, there's a shameful witch underneath to cushion us."

"That's right." The fortune teller An He nodded in agreement.

"Is the audience still busy?" He looked at An He, a spectator who was looking out at the edge of the foggy sea. "The Metaverse is temporarily closed, so there shouldn't be anything to deal with."

"I'm just digesting the information given by the potion after the promotion." Audience An He shook his head slightly and walked over.

"As usual, please introduce your situation after the promotion."

The fortune teller An He rubbed his hands impatiently: "Then I'll go first."

"I am a noble Sequence 5 Puppet Master, a T0 tier below Demigod, sitting at the same table with the shepherd."

"The prerequisite is that you have other powerful Sequence 5s to serve as your secret puppets." The thief An He said sarcastically at the right time, "In this world, you are no different from a blank slate."

"Sometimes I really want to tear your mouth apart." The fortune teller Anhe looked at him dimly.

The thief Anhe spread his hands indifferently.

"After becoming a Sequence 5 Puppet Master, I can directly control the target's spirit thread even without the help of gray fog. After completely controlling the target, I can transform it into my puppet, and the puppet can use some of my abilities. In this way, I can achieve the 'Puppet Centipede' of 'I control the puppet, the puppet controls the puppet, and the puppet's puppet controls another puppet', and keep doing it until my spiritual limit."

".Can you please stop talking so disgustingly?" the thief An He said with disgust.

The fortune teller An He didn't care: "In short, even if there are no other powerful Beyonders to serve as my secret puppets, we will not face any threats that can endanger our lives in this world. We can sit back and live our peaceful lives."

In fact, the Puppet Master has other enhancements, such as improved divination ability, the strength of air bullets becomes the same as that of steam rifles, and more acute combat intuition, but compared to the core "Puppet", these seem insignificant.

"Also." The fortune teller An He paused and said hesitantly, "Based on the feeling the gray fog gave me, I think I can now try to reach out to the curtain of history."

"Hmm?" The thief An He used the gray mist to form three question marks above his head. "No, buddy, you're going to sue a Sequence 5 ancient scholar? The Curtain of History is here?"

The fortune teller An He pretended to sigh and patted his shoulder: "This is the trick, kid."

Thief An He: "."

"What about the demigod's promotion ceremony? The next step should be the weird wizard, right?" asked audience member An He.

"Same as the thief. The information given by the potion is a bit of a riddler."

The fortune teller An He organized his words and then told the ritual required for his promotion.

"'Fooling history.'"

"You are quite wild, Mr. Fool?" The thief An He sighed.

"Not as good as your 'creative error'." The fortune teller An He glanced at him.

"But then again, is this really the ritual we need to ascend to demigod status? Isn't the intensity a bit too high?"

The thief An He grumbled, obviously dissatisfied with the difficulty of the promotion.

"So, Mr. gloomy audience, please tell me about your situation?" The fortune teller An He asked the audience An He in that disgusting tone again.

Unlike the thief An He, the audience member An He, who was already accustomed to the fortune teller's style, was not affected by his emotions and replied calmly: "Now I am a Sequence 5 Dream Walker."

"You can enter and exit dreams freely. With 'hypnosis', you can force others into dreams in reality and modify the dreams, subtly influencing them."

"In addition, I can use the connection between two dreams to perform 'flash'. The owners of the two dreams cannot be more than 500 meters apart, and they must be intelligent creatures."

The fortune teller An He smacked his lips, savoring the strength of this ability in modern society, and finally found out.
"It's over the limit, totally over the limit!"

"What about the promotion ceremony?" The thief An He was rarely concerned about these serious matters.

He was eager to know whether the rituals of all three of them were of a high level.

"It's all the same." The audience An He's mentality was very peaceful, as if his promotion ceremony was not difficult.

"My promotion ceremony is 'Utopian Reality'."

?

???

The thief An He and the fortune teller An He both used the gray fog to condense a question mark.

"From your expression I thought it wasn't difficult. Are you homesick?"

The fortune teller An He quickly noticed that this guy had another hidden message: "What else? Where's the cheat that Gray Mist gave me?"

Audience member An He downplayed the situation and added briefly, "With the blessing of the gray fog, once the dream I weave is 'recognized as true' by people, it will become reality."

"Great visionary, I pay my respects to you." The fortune teller An He bowed exaggeratedly, then threw his cane and said, "Goodbye!"

"No, who can play with him?"

He really couldn't hold it in any longer, and pulled the thief An He, seeking his approval: "We are both Sequence 5, but you can only steal a few abilities, and there are still limitations. I can barely touch the curtain of history and thought I was invincible, but I didn't expect there would be another master?"

The thief An He's mouth twitched, and he even lost the mood to act funny by wearing a single crystal glasses.

"Isn't this a bit too outrageous?"

"In fact, the restrictions are quite large." The audience Anhe himself did not think it was that outrageous. "The number of people is a vague definition, and it must be considered true, which means that dreams that are too far-fetched have no chance of coming true."

"But." The fortune teller An He smiled, "Is it possible? I mean possible."

"Have they taken the script in the metaverse seriously?" Ekoda, Tokyo.

Kuroba Kaito woke up in his bedroom.

In order to prepare for the next day's phantom thief operation, he spent the entire night last night making a complete action plan. He even took into account that the police might send out extraordinary people with divination abilities, and made special mystical preparations for this purpose.

After taking a nap in the afternoon to relieve mental fatigue, when Kuroba Kaito woke up, it was already past six in the afternoon.

"I still don't understand why the time here is so weird."

Mr. Door’s doubtful voice rang out in my mind.

"Yesterday was Wednesday, but today is Sunday. Doesn't anyone find it strange?"

Kuroba Kaito skillfully ignored this guy's nonsensical question.

During the all-nighter last night, Mr. "Men" spoke up several times to disrupt his train of thought, and all of his questions were very common sense. He patiently answered them a few times, but after a long time, he got tired of it and just let him ponder on his own.

However, although he is very lacking in common sense knowledge, Mr. "Men" is extremely reliable when it comes to knowledge of the occult.

Knowing that he was worried about the possible divination ability of the police, He gave him a very considerate suggestion.

"Why don't you take my path instead? I can lend you my status through mystical connection, and other people's divination will naturally be ineffective for you."

After discovering that the "Ancient Sun God" no longer had his eyes on him and that the "Spark" could not be further promoted, Kuroba Kaito came up with the idea of extracting extraordinary characteristics to change his path. This suggestion coincided with his own.

However, Kuroba Kaito was still extremely wary of this mysterious "Mr. Door" who was parasitic on him.

What if by changing his method, He could "take over" his body?

So Kuroba Kaito quietly drew a strange and inexplicably harmonious symbol.

When the Lantern Holders borrowed the Mirror of Arrodes before, he remembered the pattern on the mirror and had a vague guess: if he drew it in its entirety, would he be able to summon Arrodes' consciousness? After all, judging from the situation at the time, it seemed to be alive.

He didn't have much confidence in this, after all, it was just his own guess, and it seemed even more unrealistic because of the barrier between the metaverse and reality.

But Mr. "Door" can come out with him, so why not give it a try?

The ancient sun god was unable to cast his gaze, and the only thing he could think of to rely on to balance the relationship between him and Mr. "Door" was this mirror.

It was not known whether it was good news or bad news. When he drew the pattern and pronounced the name "Arodes" in ancient Hermetic language, a line of blood-red words really appeared on the paper.

[Your faithful servant is waiting for your dispatch, great master! ! ]

In order to express the excitement, he even used two exclamation marks at the end.

?

At that time, Kuroba Kaito was confused.

I have only met you once, and that was in the identity of Kaito Kidd. Although as a Level 1 Sealed Object you should be able to ignore my disguise, why are you being so attentive?
"Why are you, um... so polite to me?" Kuroba Kaito tried his best to choose his tone.

He had come into contact with the Holy Emblem of the Sun and knew how dangerous a Level 1 Sealed Artifact was. Moreover, this was a "living" Sealed Artifact, and he did not want to suffer any consequences by angering it.

[Because you have a very kind aura to me, please allow your loyal Arrodes to call you by this name, great master! ]

[According to the principle of reciprocity, it is my turn to ask you a question: What is your next question? ]

'Don't get me wrong, it's definitely not talking about me.'

Mr. Door was marveling in his heart: "Such a unique magical item is very rare even in our time. Perhaps you have come into contact with other high-ranking people? The extraordinary characteristics of this item may come from the same path, which is why you have this feeling."

Kuroba Kaito was at a loss. Was even the question about the principle of equality being asked to gain benefits for him?
This attentiveness frightened him a little.

Then Kuroba Kaito thought for a moment and asked again: "Do you know where this is?"

He wanted to know how Arrodes, who was summoned, viewed "reality".

[This is a 'secret', my great master. For some reason, I cannot tell you the answer directly. Arrodes is really useless.]

"No, it's okay." Kuroba Kaito replied immediately.

'It cannot answer, because the answer involves the 'secret' itself. It seems that the Beyonder characteristics contained in this thing do not exceed Sequence 3.'

Mr. Men's voice was old and gentle.

'But unlike the restrictions it is subject to, I can answer you.'

"Although many memories have become blurred, at least I haven't forgotten this."

"This is a place abandoned by God, a place with a hidden history, and a place I have been searching for for many years."

Kuroba Kaito remained silent.

After a long while, he continued to ask Arrodes: "Do you know how I can block others from fortune-telling me? I don't need a method that targets high-sequences, as long as I can prevent people below Sequence 7 from knowing my specific information."

【This question is very simple! 】

When it comes to the field that Arrodes is good at, it seems very excited.

[Here are three methods, all of which are more suitable for you. 】

[The first method is to use the protection of a high-level person to influence the accuracy of divination in the most direct way, while the second method is to build a closed spiritual wall, which can ensure that most low-sequence divinations will not have errors, but it is a big trouble for spiritual consumption and is not convenient. ]

[Arrodes recommends that you use the third method, which is the 'Contract'. ]

[As long as the great master signs a master-servant contract with Arrodes and establishes a mystical connection, Arrodes can help you block all divination results pointing to you through the connection. If you can bring Arrodes out of the Pandora Gate and carry my body with you, even the demigods will no longer be able to obtain information about you. ]

Where can I find the Pandora's door to bring you out?

Kuroba Kaito was speechless.

As if he knew his dilemma, Arrodes was very considerate and gave a secondary method to solve the urgent problem.

[Of course, the great master can just draw the symbol of Arrodes, but it won't be very useful and can only block some simple divinations. ]
