Mystery: Who has seen my brother?

Chapter 101 Dunn and Daly

The ancient bronze palace was shrouded in a gray mist, as if covered by the long river of time.

Deep red stars twinkled, and vague and illusory sounds were heard.

Klein spread his spirituality into the stars and listened to the prayers of the "Sun".

After a long pause, he sighed, "What a strange and tragic place."

"The City of Silver should be located in the God-forsaken Land, right?" Klein asked.

伊芙点了点头。

"What exactly is the God-Forsaken Land? Has it truly been abandoned by God?" Klein asked curiously. "Why was it abandoned? Is there any way to enter or exit the God-Forsaken Land?"

"Why don't you just change your name to One Hundred Thousand Whys?" Eve muttered.

"Uh……"

"The reason is complicated," Eve sighed, lowering her eyes to stare at the table in front of her. "It's related to the secrets of the Third Age, involving double-digit gods and angels."

Klein was suddenly shocked. He knew that the God-Forsaken Land would inevitably involve divine secrets, but he didn't expect there would be so many gods.

The girl raised her head, staring at the Fool at the head, and said softly, "Remember the Cataclysm? The God-Forsaken Land is a product of the Cataclysm."

"Is the Cataclysm real?" Klein thought, resting his chin lightly.

Judging from his previous life's thinking, the records in the scriptures should contain a lot of fabrication, but there is also truth mixed in with the falsehood.

I remember that my sister traveled to this world during the Second Age... Klein glanced at Eve... In that case, she must have been an eyewitness to the Cataclysm.

Suddenly, Klein hesitated whether to ask further. Logically speaking, experiencing such a disaster would definitely be a bad memory.

Well... these are enough to deal with Mr. "The Hanged Man", Miss "Justice" and "The Sun", and exploring the secrets of the gods is quite dangerous.

Eve continued, "Hmm...that's about it. If I continued, it would overturn your understanding. Exploring the secrets of the gods requires a gradual and gradual approach. This is enough for you to deal with them. A normal person who's just come into contact with high-level events wouldn't dare ask any more questions after hearing this."

"As for the method of entering and exiting the God-Forsaken Land..." Eve pondered for two seconds, then said thoughtfully, "The God-Forsaken Land has been sealed off. Even the gods cannot directly influence it under normal circumstances, nor can they communicate with the spirit world. However, some high-level beings can enter and exit the God-Forsaken Land through special methods."

"Ordinary people and low-sequence beings can also enter the God-Forsaken Land, but getting in is difficult, leaving is even more difficult, and it's extremely dangerous."

"Ordinary people and low-sequence individuals can also enter?" Klein was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise.

"Yes," Eve nodded, "The key lies in the True Creator."

The True Creator...

Klein murmured, "Could the God-Forsaken Land be the sanctuary that the Aurora Society is promoting?"

"Well," Eve adjusted her sitting position and leaned forward, saying, "Whether high-sequence or low-sequence, entering the God-Forsaken Land requires avoiding the True Creator."

That's right, after all, that is His territory. Even if you go in without saying hello, the real creator will definitely know, and if he disagrees, he will kick you out directly.

Unless you are stronger than the true creator, which is of course impossible...

Klein pinched his brows, feeling a headache. He was clearly just a weak Sequence Eight, so why did he always come into contact with matters involving higher-level beings?

"I also have a way to enter and exit the God-Forsaken Land," Eve murmured, resting her elbows on the armrests of the chair, supporting her cheeks, and said, "If you need help, you can ask me for help."

A look of surprise flashed across Klein's face, but he returned to normal after two seconds.

The title of Ouroboros, "the follower of the True Creator", has already explained the relationship between Ouroboros and the True Creator. Since Ouroboros is the follower of the True Creator, it is not difficult to imagine that Eve, Ouroboros's sister, has a good relationship with the True Creator.

Hey?and many more!

Klein suddenly realized something. Was calling the True Creator the Fallen Creator at the party considered slandering someone else's friend in front of others?

According to Eve's description of the secret prayer path and the true creator, the true creator should have the authority to fall, so this should not be considered slander, just like the goddess of night is also called the Lord of Silence.

But from a normal person's perspective, using the word "degenerate" to describe others is really not a good word.

Although he had no intention of slandering her, and he swore to the goddess about this, it would still be better to explain.

Even if I had eight hundred guts, I wouldn't dare to slander a god... Klein muttered in his heart... No matter if it's a righteous god or an evil god...

"I mentioned the Fallen Creator at the party..." Klein paused, weighing his words.

"I know," Eve said, "you're not wrong, actually."

"Okay, I'm leaving now," Eve stood up, raised her hands, stretched, and complained, "I still have classes in the afternoon."

As the words fell, Eve's figure disappeared in Sefirah Castle.

Klein followed closely behind and left Sefirah Castle.

After coming out of the bathroom, Klein picked up his hat and cane, straightened his appearance, and went to the Blackthorn Security Company to inquire about Heinarsen.

"Hey, good afternoon, Klein," Roxanne waved as she saw Klein come in. "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be lying at home enjoying your rare vacation?"

"Good afternoon, Miss Roxanne," Klein took off his hat and greeted Roxanne. "A proper gentleman will not abandon his responsibilities even on vacation."

"Ah? Oh," Luo Shan tilted her head back slightly, pouting as she thought for two seconds, "You're here to see the captain, right? He's in his office."

After thanking him, Klein and Roxanne came to Dunn's door and knocked.

"Please come in."

Klein gently pushed open the door and saw the captain sitting at his desk, reading a copy of "Men's Aesthetics." After Klein came in, he put the magazine down, closed it, and placed it beside him.

"Captain," Klein sat across from Dunn, "I want to ask about Heinarsen."

Dunn rubbed his head, sighed, and said, "He left Tingen a long time ago."

"Left already?"

"Well," Dunn said helplessly, "he left after Sirius died."

When the Nighthawks arrested Sirius Arypis and Hood Eugen, they accidentally killed Sirius, and Hood Eugen had already gone mad, so the Nighthawks did not get any useful information.

"Based on the current clues, he should be a member of the Aurora Society," Dunn recalled. "And Heinarson once taught at the Diviners' Club. You were also there. Have you ever come into contact with him?" "I'm sorry," Klein carefully recalled all his experiences at the Diviners' Club. "My only contact with him was attending one of his classes. All I know about him is his name and his knowledge of divination."

"Well," Dunn said without showing any disappointment. He hadn't pinned his hopes on this matter in the first place. "It's okay."

After chatting with Dunn for a few more words, Klein left.

The next day, Klein returned to Blackthorn Security Company feeling refreshed.

After paying off his debt, Klein felt relieved. Last night, he didn't attend classes or go out hunting pirates. He went to bed early for once.

"Good morning, Miss Roxanne."

"Good morning, Klein."

After greeting them, the girl looked around. Her sneaky look told Klein that she was about to start gossiping again.

"Klein, I have good news for you," Roxanne waved to Klein and whispered, "Ms. Daly just arrived."

Klein was stunned for a moment, then he didn't know what expression to use when facing Roxanne.

Miss Daly arrived in Tingen the day after the Evil God's Offspring incident.

This famous psychic lived in Enmat Port, which was a bit far from Tingen. She took a day off from work with others, applied to leave Enmat Port, and rushed over.

Although they had only met a few times, based on the few times they had met, Klein felt that Ms. Daly might like the captain, but he was not sure.

After thinking for two seconds, Klein decided to end the topic. If it was true, it would be fine. If it was false, it would be quite embarrassing.

Seeing Klein pause, Roshan became a little angry. "I'm not the kind of girl who talks too much. No, I do have a big mouth, but I'm not... well... the kind of bad girl who would think about others behind their backs."

After she finished speaking, she looked around again, lowered her voice, and whispered, "Ms. Daly..."

"They went out on a date."

An old voice suddenly sounded, startling the two people who were quietly discussing gossip.

"Date?" Klein was shocked. "The captain and Ms. Daly have confirmed their relationship?"

when?
Klein recalled their last meeting, which was after the incident with the offspring of the evil god. But hadn't Ms. Daly expressed her concern for him for a few moments before hurriedly leaving? There was no confession!
Have I lost my memory?

Or has the Captain evolved to the point where he can enter dreams across cities? Did he confess his feelings to Ms. Daly in his dream?

"Okay, okay," Old Neil said jokingly, seeing Klein's shocked expression, "I was wrong. I should have made a date."

"A date?"

"A date?"

Klein and Roxanne both showed puzzled expressions.

"The first half is a party," Old Neil said mysteriously, "and the second half is a date."

"What a stuffy gentleman," said Old Neil, with mock anger. "Girls these days don't like stuffy gentlemen."

Actually, I'm not old-fashioned at all... Klein muttered in his heart... I'm just too shocked.

"Are you really sure that the captain will confess his feelings?" Luo Shan stared at Old Neil with sharp eyes and asked anxiously.

"Why does it have to be Dunn?" Old Neil stroked his graying beard and said with an expression of a veteran, "I think it's Daly."

"So..." Klein looked at the two of them and said hesitantly, "Mr. Neil, you're not sure whether you'll confess your feelings today, are you?"

"As far as I'm concerned, he'll definitely confess his feelings today." Old Neil turned around and faced Klein, stroking his graying beard with one hand, exuding the aura of a life mentor.

"Mr. Neil clearly has no experience himself," Luo Shan tilted her head and couldn't help but complain, "but he acts like a seasoned veteran."

Old Neil paused as he was touching his chin, his eyelids drooped slightly, and his gaze fell on the skin on the back of his hand.

The old man's eyes moved up along the back of his hand, finally stopping on his arm.

He had drawn blood from his arm, and the dark wizard robes covered all the wounds on his body.

Luo Shan looked at the silent old Neil, and suddenly realized that she had said something wrong. She immediately apologized: "I'm sorry, Mr. Neil, I..."

"What do you know..." Old Neil said softly.

Luo Shan's heart suddenly rose to her throat. She was so scared that she kept muttering "I, I..." for a long time, but couldn't say a word. She was so anxious that tears were about to fall.

Klein's expression darkened. He took two steps forward and said cautiously, "Mr. Neil..."

"It's called experience. Experience, life experience, you know?" Old Neil said with a dissatisfied look on his face. "Emperor Russell once said, 'Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've seen pigs run.' I've seen this kind of thing a lot."

Klein and Roshan were stunned for a moment, unresponsive, nodding their heads as Old Neil spoke. Two seconds later, Klein was the first to regain his composure, coming to his senses and instantly breathing a sigh of relief.

Luo Shan patted her chest. Apparently, the little girl had come to her senses. She patted her chest and muttered softly, "I was scared to death."

Seeing them like this, Old Neil chuckled and said, "Daly is a true genius. It only took her three years to become a 'psychic'. Dunn has never dared to confess his feelings to her, feeling that he is not worthy of her."

I didn't expect there would be such a thing...

Klein had only been with the Nighthawks for about a month and was unfamiliar with the affairs of Ms. Daly and the captain. He pricked up his ears curiously and listened attentively.

"But it's okay. It's the same thing when Daly confesses."

"So, Mr. Neil, why do you think they will confess their feelings today?" Klein couldn't help but ask.

"I was there when Daly asked Dunn out," Old Neil said with a grin.

"At this time...you are here?" Luo Shan looked at Old Neil suspiciously, with a look of disbelief on her face.

"I just happened to be passing by and accidentally saw and heard a little bit," Old Neil said. "Daleigh didn't dare look at Dunn when she asked him out. It must be different from a normal gathering."

"Dunne actually wanted to refuse at first. Tsk, tsk, tsk," Old Neil said earnestly. "He's so old-fashioned and conservative. If he hadn't met Daly, he would have been a bachelor forever."

Luo Shan thought seriously about what Old Neil said. She recalled that the captain was as strict as a father on weekdays. She would not like it anyway. She didn't want another "captain" to come. If so, she would be controlled whether at home or outside. Just thinking about it was a nightmare.
