Mystery: When the Fool Meets the Masked Fool

Chapter 527 The mysterious power of the East

"So what do you plan to do now?" the Serres puppet asked.

“Me?” The ancient sun god pondered for a moment. “I want to see if that Klein Moretti is truly worthy of the position of [Lord of Mysteries].

"He has so much in him that I can hardly see through him with my 'omniscient and omnipotent' authority alone."

"You're willing to let Amon relinquish his extraordinary abilities?" The Serres puppet feigned shock, covering its mouth with its crude hands. "Oh, my God, this is the merciful, great sun god. The creator of all things, the omniscient and omnipotent god..."

"Stop being sarcastic." The ancient sun god gripped the writhing puppet in his hand. "I'm just giving him a chance."

“If it were the old Amon, I might not mind too much. But now that Amon has learned what ‘love’ is, I don’t really mind supporting Amon to become the Lord of Mysteries.”

He paused for half a second: "Please forgive an old father's selfishness."

“I understand.” The Serres puppet nodded, then turned to Amon: “So you’re also willing to give up your extraordinary characteristics?”

"Guess how much of my current strength these two extraordinary characteristics account for?" Amon crossed his arms and pushed up his monocle.

“Forty-seven point three-three percent,” Serres reported a fairly accurate figure.

"Up to three seconds ago," he added.

"Haha." Amon laughed out loud. "Yes, that's right, exactly."

"So, that's the problem."

"I only need to relinquish one of the extraordinary characteristics and one of the uniqueness of the sequence one of error and gate, and both the contamination and the consciousness of the Celestial will be transferred to that Fool."

"By giving up less than half of our power, we can get rid of the pollution and chaos, and we don't need to worry about the risk of the Celestial Venerable's resurrection."

"Moreover, it can reduce mental burden, allowing me to become more pure and go further on my path in life."

"One path is high-risk and has an end and a limit, while the other path is low-risk and has no end and no limit."

"Do I need to tell you which path is more cost-effective?" Amon instinctively used the taunting skill commonly employed by the Gui San family.

“My suggestion is to directly seek power from the apothecary of [Abundance] and become a citizen of Abundance,” Serres advised. “What do you think?”

As he spoke, he turned his head ninety degrees and looked at a "Jade Palace Style" milk tea shop on the street not far away.

That was Serres's shop. Although none of the shop assistants were from the Immortal Boat, and no one in the entire city knew what Jade Palace was, even the milk tea inside had absolutely nothing to do with "Jade Palace".

But that doesn’t stop Serres from using the name.

Meanwhile, a genuine Xianzhou person with a lazy demeanor and white hair was sitting inside the milk tea shop. Through the window, one could see that his expression was slightly strange. He would take a sip, pause for two seconds, glance at the words "Jade Palace" on the packaging, ponder for a few seconds, take another sip, pause for two seconds again, glance at the words "Jade Palace" on the packaging, and fall into even longer contemplation, repeating this cycle over and over.

It seems that the locals in Xianzhou don't really approve of this "Jade Palace style" milk tea.

"Its flavor is quite unique, hmm... it's probably at the level that Fu Qing would post on Xiaohongshu. The creator and that Miss Himeko from the Starry Sky Train might have something in common," Xianzhouren commented.

I couldn't understand it, but it was probably a positive review. Seemingly sensing the gaze of the Serres doll, Jing Yuan slightly turned his head towards the direction of the ancient sun god, raised the milk tea cup in his hand, and moved slowly as if inviting someone to drink with him.

Of the several foreign heroic spirits who came to this world, Jing Yuan is probably the least in a hurry to go back.

Just as the star predicted, in Jing Yuan's view, his projection in this world can also think about various matters concerning the Immortal Ship, which is double the thinking, and can save a lot of time after the memories are synchronized with the main body.

Jingyuan (Dual-core driver version).

Seeing Jing Yuan raise his cup in a gesture of greeting, the ancient sun god also nodded.

At Jingyuan's invitation, the ancient sun god and Amon entered the milk tea shop and sat down opposite Jingyuan.

"Is it about to start a fight? I bet the Ancient Sun God will win." Serres's puppet frantically stirred up the flames.

“There’s no need for that,” Jing Yuan said with a smile. “I have no interest in the Holy Grail. Let’s all value harmony, that’s what matters.”

"You believed him just because he said no? You can't be fooled. Let me tell you, the more handsome a man is, the more likely he is to lie." Serres continued to stir things up.

"I wouldn't dare say that. If we're talking about looks, then Mr. Serres, who entered the Pure Knights Order based on his eloquence, is definitely superior." Jing Yuan didn't mind joking around with this "old friend."

Serres remained silent.

Can't we just leave out "eloquence"?

Can't I just say I got in because of my looks?

What did my stunning beauty do to you?

Seeing that Serres remained silent, Jing Yuan began to communicate with the ancient sun god.

At first, the two just talked about the environment, the Earth, and the outside world.

Unbeknownst to them, a tea set had appeared on the table in the milk tea shop. The ancient sun god and Jing Yuan sat facing each other, and the milk tea that had made Jing Yuan frown incessantly had been placed aside.

The staff and customers around the table were completely oblivious to what was happening at their table; everyone seemed to be invisible to them, as if they had entered a blind spot in everyone's mind.

Amon was also quite interested in this "outer god" and listened with great interest.

But as he listened, the topics his father and he discussed inexplicably became more and more serious.

The topic gradually shifted to the establishment of diplomatic relations between the Celestial Ship and Earth.

what's the situation?
How did the topic change?
