Mystery: Survival from the Secret Doll

Chapter 137 Chapter 136 Don't Sleep Too Deeply
Ignoring the former pirate whose expression was becoming increasingly grim, Tang leaned his elbows on the edge of the boat and looked into the distance.

"It's possible that it's not a witch cult. I also know of a secret organization called the Gnosis Society."

"This is a secret organization founded by apprentices and Beyonders of the Witch Path. Its members believe that the spirit is the essence of a person, and the body is merely a cage that binds the spirit."

"They believe that humans are evil because they are influenced by their bodies. They must gain knowledge through spirituality, gradually freeing their spirits from the flesh. After passing through layers of trials, they can finally escape the material world, return to their purest and truest selves, and achieve eternal salvation."

"Sounds normal, right? This concept is not unacceptable."

"But their members will directly destroy the bodies of others to achieve spiritual purification and sublimation."

Tang straightened his monocle. "Normal concepts, distorted expressions. What this secretive organization believes in is most likely evil gods."

"Of course, the Witch Cult is also behind this organization. The Gnosis Society is just a front for their sect."

As for who the witch sect believes in... isn't it the original witch who teamed up with his grandfather to fight the Seven Gods, but ended up being beaten and screaming.

"However, the Witch Cult, a secret organization that was born in the Fourth Epoch, doesn't have much influence on the sea now. And those witches with twisted personalities always do things that seem absurd."

"The Gnosis Society, the witches..." Belle unconsciously rubbed her belly, "What do they want to do with Ellis?"

Tang withdrew his gaze from the distance and said, "Ah, maybe he wants to use him to fish?"

He shrugged. "Or maybe she's attracted to him? After all, the Witch Path undergoes, uh, a strange transformation at Sequence 7, and Sequence 6 of this path is called Joy."

Bailey opened her mouth slightly. This was something she had never known before.

"The Pleasure Witch... the name of this potion makes people feel uncomfortable."

"Whether it's physical pleasure or spiritual joy, these are all things a Pleasure Witch can achieve. Above that, there's pain, despair, and immortality... In short, whether witches or hunters, they are synonymous with war and disaster. Nothing good will come of being associated with them."

Tang hadn't directly stated that these were two interchangeable paths. Belle was intelligent, but she'd been at sea all her life, and her lack of knowledge of the mystical sciences prevented her from gaining a deeper understanding of the secrets of the potion sequence.

He had no intention of telling Belle and the others now, after all, the underlying rules of the world were hidden in the potion sequence.

It’s better if fewer people know about it.

After all, the City of Disaster above the Witch Hunter and the River of Eternal Darkness above the Dark Giant, the God of Death, if put together, these two could become the fourth pillar and bury the entire universe with it...

Hateful witch.

"In short, making a deal with witches is really stupid," he said. "Belle, I sincerely suggest that your husband sleep a little soundly at night. If he wants to do something strange, help the witches, or do something like pirates who don't care about people's lives..."

"I wouldn't mind having another Marionette."

Bailey fell silent, and after a few seconds, she calmly picked up a wooden stick from the deck.

"Ouch!"

"I'll be back as soon as I go."

Bailey took the stick, weighed it in her hand, and then smiled at Tang.

Tang: "Yeah, okay."

She looked towards the captain's cabin, then stepped forward.

Tang sighed, "There should be popcorn by now."

System: "Host, you can just ask the theater to build it for you. They've been accumulating quite a lot of miracles lately~"

theater:)
Ellis: “……?”

"Wait, Belle, wait a minute, there's a misunderstanding! There's definitely a misunderstanding. You can't listen to that guy's side of the story. Speak nicely—Ouch, it hurts, it hurts—!"

At this moment, some violent noises were heard from the captain's room.

"Be gentle! Be gentle! Stop hitting me, I—!"

bang-

crackling——

Tang withdrew his gaze, holding his cheek, and temporarily stopped using the monocle to analyze the mystery and the knowledge it brought.

"What does the Witch Cult want to do? A Desperate Witch is trying to achieve immortality, planning to spread rumors and digest the potion at the same time?"

Tang adjusted his monocle and fixed his gaze on the distant end of the sea.

"I don't know what the current situation in the God-Forsaken Land is like, but it should be better than the timeline of the original novel. Some city-states that disappeared in the long history still exist, and the residents there have not been completely swallowed by the darkness and are still struggling."

But in another thousand years, most of them will probably be finished.

"This time we're entering through the Euclid space. If everything goes well, we should be able to directly appear around the Giant King's Court."

The evil spirit of the dark angel Sasriel is in the Giant King's Court.

The dark side of this ancient sun god is said to be the King of Angels, the Vice-Lord of Heaven, the Left Hand of God, created from a rib of the ancient sun god. He is also a very dangerous existence.

"This guy must be avoided. The Dark Angel Evil Spirit has the first blasphemous slate there, and the power of the Chaos Sea radiates from it. It's a place that even the true Creator might not be willing to approach. I must be cautious and not touch it."

The Dark Angel Evil Spirit, who has merged the power of the Chaos Sea, is such a trouble. I really want to hang Him up and use Him as my secret puppet.

Or maybe observe it from a distance, and then try to pull out historical pore images after being promoted to an ancient scholar?
"The historical pore image will most likely be unable to be pulled out due to the pollution of the Chaos Sea. After all, there is not much connection between me and the Dark Angel."

Tang held his chin in his hand and fantasized, "If the dimensionality of Euclidean space can be temporarily controlled, and this Dark Angel evil spirit can be stuffed into the space, then every time we encounter an enemy, we can just reduce their dimensionality and throw the Dark Angel out. Wow, the biggest occult bomb will be born out of thin air."

It can explode wherever you point, and it would be even better if it could scare the real creator to death.

Maybe I can even show up in front of Adam.

Your backup plan has become my secret puppet. Can you make Adam so angry that he has a brain hemorrhage?
...Ah, of course, this kind of thing can only be enjoyed for a while. Let's not talk about whether he dares to approach the King of Angels among the Kings of Angels. Even if he dares to approach, he has to stuff the Dark Angel in. The Euclidean space may not be able to withstand the erosion of the Chaos Sea from the Dark Angel.

He didn't want to become a big gas thief every time he entered the Euclidean space, and the dark angel evil spirit turned into a sun scepter and gave him a big seal from time to time.

"By the way, the system..." He had a good idea.

"I can't eat it! I really can't eat it!" The system quickly rejected it, fearing that its host would act arbitrarily.

"Evil spirits don't belong to dead things!!"

"Let this evil spirit possess the secret marionette and try it out? We should always give it a try, right?"

System: 'QAQ'

Host, please don't keep trying to stuff all sorts of messy things into it!
After scaring his own son, Tang breathed a sigh of relief.

"Huh, anyway, let's try an unconventional method first. If Euclidean space doesn't work, we can use dreams to imitate the way Amon entered the God-Forsaken Land, creating errors and loopholes one after another, and then enter the God-Forsaken Land."

It would never go wrong to follow the old path of the predecessors. As long as he could get in and put on the mosaic glasses, he didn't care what the dark angel looked like or what was on his body.

"Then we'll establish a base there and send out secret marionettes to search the entire God-Forsaken Land to find the demon wolf."

"Curtain hasn't emerged from Sefirah Castle yet. Without that Sequence 1, it's unknown where the demon wolf will end up. Furthermore, it's a Sequence 2 Miracle Artist. Its ability to counter divination and prophecy will only get stronger, not weaker."

An ancient creature that had managed to survive the hunt of Amon and the True Creator for 1,300 years into the Fifth Epoch, and a high-ranking figure on the path of the Diviner, would definitely not be one to be careless.

"Use the convergence of Beyonder characteristics? Well, it's not impossible. I have the uniqueness of the Thief's Path and the Sequence 1 characteristic, and it's been quite a while since Emperor Roselle was born."

With the "0" level seal of the thief's path, life span is not a problem for Tang. He can also wait for the extraordinary characteristics of the miracle worker.

Or let the marionette stay in the God-forsaken Land and wait for a thousand years, waiting for the goddess to tear the curtain off Xiao Ke and throw it over? In this way, the demon wolf would gather together?

It is not impossible.

At that time, I will first tear off the extraordinary characteristics of the miracle worker from the theater, then kill the magic wolf, and put the extraordinary characteristics of the miracle worker back.

I just don't know if the monocle and the pocket watch can do this kind of thing.

"If possible, can we also take over the City of Silver? After all, it's part of the Sequence 2 ritual of Little K, an anchor point of faith, and a member of the Tarot Club."

Tang thought for a moment and hesitated slightly on this plan.

"Speaking of Xiao Ke..."

"Silver City, at sea, Backlund."

"The Sun, the Hanged Man, and Justice."

"With me as a variable, the direction of this world obviously cannot follow the original arrangement."

Will a mistake, a loophole, cause the premature demise of this 'Lord of Mysteries' who has not yet grown up?
When the time comes, will you let him take the lead himself?

"I don't think so. Even if I wanted to, I wouldn't be able to master Sefirah Castle in my current state unless I abandon my body, discard my marinated system, and completely sever ties with the Knowledge Wilds."

system:'……?'

How about giving it a try? If the plot develops normally, the first people Zhou Mingrui will pull are Alger the Hanged Man and Audrey the Justice.

At that time, Zhou Mingrui and Klein Moretti hadn't yet become Beyonders. They had only used the venerable name of Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun to open the gates of Sefirah Fortress. Without a true grasp of Sefirah Fortress, as long as they could deceive Sefirah Fortress's autonomous responses, they wouldn't be able to easily distinguish between parasites and marionettes.

Monitor them, replace them, use these people who are obviously connected to Sefirah Castle as a springboard, and board Sefirah Castle in a more covert manner, thereby secretly manipulating the direction of the Tarot Club and turning Mr. Fool of the Tarot Club into his 'secret marionette'?
After all, the Sequence 1 potion of this path is called Mystic Servant.

How can we digest things without serving the secret?

"Ah, that's quite interesting when you think about it."

"But Zhou Mingrui and I don't have any fundamental conflict. I don't intend to become a Sequence 0 Fool, and I can't possibly go and rob Sefirah Castle." Are the wills of the Origin and the Lord of Mysteries really that valuable? Are they something to be fought over?

He is in a hurry to inherit because he is sick.

"Emm, we'll see when the time comes. Anyway, there are still more than a thousand years left. Who knows what will happen?"

In short, do it first, and then consider other issues.

As for turning Mr. Fool into his secret puppet... well, the idea was good, but he wasn't that crazy.

As his thoughts raced, Tang noticed that the howling sounds had finally stopped.

He walked into the cabin and saw Ellis banging his head against the wall. Beside him, Bailey was sitting on a chair with a stick in her hand, smiling at Tang who had come to the door.

"Oh, what's going on?"

Ellis looked at Tang with a forced smile: "Thank you so much--"

A stick flew towards him, causing the former pirate to subconsciously hold his head and squat down.

Tang adjusted his monocle and looked at Ellis, who was squatting on the ground. "Don't be so polite. We don't practice this kind of etiquette over there."

He looked at Bailey, “Okay, let’s hear what interesting things he did.

"Don't worry, I have a seal for the audience channel. Tell the truth, only the truth and the whole truth. Even if you don't tell me, I can see everything. Nine out of ten times it will be okay." In fact, there was no such seal. He just used the Euclidean space to review Ellis's experience during this period.

He raised his hand, allowing Bailey and Ellis to see the arm-thick stick in his hand.

“This thing should be more useful.”

Bailey took the stick from Tang's hand, shook it in her hand, and smiled with satisfaction, "Tang, it turns out you understand me the best."

Ellis looked at Tang and gritted his teeth, "Don't sleep too deeply tonight!"

"Don't worry, I will sleep with one eye open."

The tables and chairs automatically shifted into place, as if lifted by an invisible hand. Tang sat down on a chair, the sea breeze blowing in from the window. The ship, like a ghost, sailed at high speed toward the distant horizon without a sail raised or a sailor manipulating the oars.

"A month ago," Ellis said, rubbing his shoulders, "a mysterious person approached me and asked to buy some occult items."

"Some of those things were ordinary, while others were filled with spiritual materials. And as the predetermined reward, he gave me a message and a bottle."

The former pirate lowered his voice, as if the secret, if spoken aloud, would be attacked by unspeakable monsters: "What is in the bottle is the 'Fountain of Youth'."
