"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool. Good afternoon, everyone."
"I regret what happened to Backlund." Klein knocked on the armrest of the seat: "My beloved tried his best to act, but ultimately failed under the influence of the gods."
My beloved also sacrificed his life for this. Of course, this refers to myself... Klein silently laughed at himself in his heart.
After experiencing the disaster in Backlund, Klein reflected on his actions with regret and guilt. He found that he was too dependent on others for certain things, which also led to people who had a chance to survive the disaster but died one after another from the diseases spread by the "Desperate Nightingale".
In reality, the disaster caused by the God War only destroyed most of Backlund's buildings. Thanks to the shelter construction initiative previously promoted by Klein and Gao Wei, some simple shelters actually saved many lives.
But what troubles Klein in his heart is that he and Dunn Smith, the night watchers of the church, did not stop Panatia in a real sense. This also led to the loss of order in Baekeland due to the war between gods. In the following days, Germany killed many people who would have survived due to the spread of fatal diseases.
As for the missing people—this situation was a consolation for Klein. Klein knew that Gao Wei had taken some people away from Backlund long ago, and in the days before the disease broke out, these ships also made multiple trips to transport those who exceeded their carrying capacity to other places.
Moreover, many of those who were truly missing had fled from Backlund, because many people living in Backlund were not on official records.
Of course, many of them are actually missing... Thinking of this, Klein's heart couldn't help but feel heavy.
The Tarot Club members on the side were shocked at this moment.
This incident involves the gods? This matter actually involves the gods!
"The Hanged Man" Alger Wilson couldn't help but open his mouth slightly. He had heard some rumors before, but he only thought that these things were really just rumors.
He originally thought that Backlund's destruction was merely a fight between some High-Sequencers over rituals or potions. After all, Alger knew that Backlund's rulers and the nobles at the center of power hadn't suffered much harm.
"Mr. Fool, can you tell me what happened to Backlund?" Audrey asked eagerly. She looked at the silent "Fool" sitting at the front and the one sitting there like a sculpture. Mr. "Baita" couldn't help but look a little anxious.
Klein saw that Gao Wei in front of him had no intention of answering, so he nodded gently:
"God War."
After uttering these vague words, Klein fell silent once again. These two words also stirred up a storm in the hearts of everyone at the Tarot Club.
God war?
Which gods caused the friction? Or is it that the evil god who has some intention to peek into the real world has returned to this world?
"Just a week ago, the true Creator arrived successfully." In order to maintain the status of "The Fool," Klein manipulated the dummy "world" he controlled and spoke in a hoarse voice:
"But what's interesting is that most of the damage Backlund sustained wasn't caused by the True Creator. Judging from the traces, it feels more like the attacks were carried out by the Eternal Blazing Sun and the Lord of Storms."
"How could a righteous god attack Backlund?" Audrey lost her voice. "They are clearly the gods who protect the people..."
Alger, who believed in the "Lord of Storms", just couldn't help but smile. After joining the Tarot Club, Alger basically abandoned his belief in the Lord of Storms. He knows more and sees more reality.
If the Lord of Storms really loves the world so equally and selflessly, then why has he been discriminated against by his colleagues who also belong to the Church of Storms in the past forty years of his life?
Alger couldn't help but sneered: "I dare not say about the Lord of Storms. The damage he did to Backlund was probably just the aftermath of the attack that crossed Backlund and caused considerable damage there. But Eternal Lie Yang? Haha, recently Intis and Loen have been approaching a war, maybe this is what the Eternal Blazing Sun wants to see."
Alger was basically certain of his guess on this matter. According to the rumors I heard, the Eternal Blazing Sun played a large role in the destruction of Backlund's buildings. Coupled with the recent turbulent situation, Intis might officially start a war with Roen.
"That's how it should be, Miss Justice. Don't assume that the gods truly love us unconditionally. If they truly love the world, why are there so many homeless people in Backlund?" "White Tower" Gao Wei finally spoke up, a faint smile lingering in his voice. "Remember that saying? Don't trust in the mercy of the gods."
Seeing that the atmosphere was about to improve, Klein spoke again. He dressed as the Fool and said:
"The gods need an anchor."
锚?
This word that had never been heard before echoed in everyone's ears, and several people couldn't help but think about it. They all felt that this word was a bit strange.
Among them, the experienced Alger had obviously thought more deeply, and his thoughts had even touched the edge of this fact, with a look of astonishment on his face.
After watching the Tarot meeting remain silent for more than ten seconds, a light smile appeared on Klein's face. He straightened up slightly and said in a low voice:
“The believer is the anchor of the spirit.”
Just one sentence, like a thunderbolt, exploded in everyone's ears. Audrey's lips couldn't help but tremble a little. She couldn't help but think of the lightning bolts that fell from the sky during the previous disasters.
Those lightnings seemed to be chasing something extremely gorgeous, destroying the places where the gorgeous luster fell along with it.
Thinking about it now, Audrey felt that those gorgeous brilliance might be the pollution sent by a certain god, and those lightning were the attacks of the Storm Lord following closely behind.
It is obvious that the gods chose the simplest way to eliminate pollution.
--destroy.
If there's no way to solve a problem, then eliminate the person who discovered it. This was just a joke in the old days, but it's become reality here. Even more tragically, in the eyes of the gods, believers are usually not considered human beings, but merely carriers of anchors.
Most believers only have one god, but gods have thousands of anchors.
Thinking of this, Audrey felt as if her belief in gods was about to collapse. She looked at the members around her who had also heard the news at the Tarot meeting in a panic, as if she wanted to see what other people's expressions were.
However, hidden by the gray fog, Audrey was destined to not see what she wanted to see. Derrick Berg, sitting nearby, couldn't help but swallow his saliva, sensing that something unpleasant seemed to be happening outside the God's Forsaken Land.
"Regardless, the shelter still saved many people." Seeing the Tarot Club's atmosphere fall silent again, Fors found an opportunity to ask the question everyone wanted to know:
"Mr. Fool, what's the result of this battle between gods? Although Backlund... well, he was hit hard, the battle between the gods..."
Forsi was a little hesitant. She didn't know how to speak to make her words appear more tactful. After the God War, she and Xio escaped from Backlund overnight. Because she was afraid of being caught by the official Beyonders, Forsi even continued to escape and took a boat directly to the sea with Xio.
It was precisely because of this that she was eager to know the outcome of the God War so that she could find the correct escape route.
"The changes are quite big."
Just when Klein was thinking about how to answer to inform Forsi of the specific situation without losing Mr. Fool’s reputation, Gao Wei spoke directly to Forsi.
Forsi immediately turned his head and looked at Gao Wei in front of him, waiting for his next words. Alger, who was deep in thought, also turned his attention, because he knew that Gao Dimension was technically the favored one of another great being.
And it is very likely that he is the true creator of one of the protagonists of this God War.
"The Overlooker devoured the Hidden Sage, and the great existence closest to the Hermit changed. A hidden existence broke through the blockade of the gods and came to this world. According to the information I received, his target may be the Southern Continent."
Gao Wei did not hesitate to sell the Super Star Master that was used to help him attract firepower. The more people who chase the Super Star Master, the safer he can develop on the earth.
After acquiring the uniqueness and extraordinary characteristics of the Hidden Sage, he had already begun to corrode the God of Steam and Machinery. If He could contain the Perfect One, then the Wilderness of Knowledge would be within his reach.
After the God War, the God of Steam and Machinery also discovered a very serious problem, that is, the erosion from the "Hidden Sage" suddenly became much stronger.
As a god who has a good relationship with gods such as the Eternal Sun, the God of Steam and Machinery decisively chose to directly tell them what he felt. This also made the other gods feel that the current situation was more serious.
After saying that, Gao Wei sat up straighter and looked around:
"If you see traces of this hidden existence, please leave quickly. Before you reach the level of an angel, there is no way to confront Him head-on."
"Although his vessel only has the strength of a demigod, his extraordinary path does not belong to the earth. We have no way of knowing how his power will appear."
"His honorable name on earth is 'Superstar Lord'. The place where He is will have an obvious feature, that is, the reflective things around Him will often reflect the pattern of the starry sky."
Forsi sat there blankly, with only one thought echoing in his mind:
Why should I go to sea...
While thinking about it, Forsi looked at Mr. "White Tower" in front of him. After a brief silence, her tears almost burst out——
Teacher, where are you? I want to come to you.
…………
In the captain's room at sea, Bethel expressionlessly took the wooden board spawned by the fallen mother goddess and nailed it to the door of the captain's room. He suddenly sneezed and looked into the distance.
His spiritual intuition told him that the extraordinary characteristics of the Abrahamic family seemed to be calling him.
"This shouldn't be the case."
Bethel sighed and continued to nail up the room he would live in - he really couldn't stand being squeezed in the captain's room with four Outer Gods.
"It must be an illusion."
Bethel said to himself.
Chapter 143 Welcome, Captain Sparrow
Klein was sitting on the ship that was about to set sail, packing the luggage he had brought with him expressionlessly. Next to him sat Leonard, who was wearing black clothes.
After the Church of the Evernight Goddess gave Klein the mission to go to the sea, Leonard also joined Klein as a member of the mission, following Klein to join the team chasing the hidden existence that might be tracking the "Mysterious Queen" and the fleeing Ince Zangwill.
In name only, Klein, representing the Church of Evernight, was the chief officer sent by the church to assist the Church of Storms. Unfortunately, due to the severe shortage of manpower after the Backlund Cataclysm, the Church lacked the necessary personnel to assist Klein in piloting a complete ship.
Therefore, before officially recruiting enough trustworthy manpower, Klein could only live on the privateer ship of the Church of Storms. Of course, the identity he uses is no longer the previous Sherlock Moriarty, but the captain of the ship who has not yet obtained the title of "Gehrman Sparrow".
With the tacit understanding between the Church of Evernight and the Church of Storms, Klein's actions were not hindered, and he even had a lot of say in it.
Of course, these privileges will end when Klein finds enough manpower - or enough spiritual beings to be able to pilot the entire ship.
I can't recruit too many people, so a Beyonder from the "Death God" or "Alien" pathway would be great. Perhaps, some items incorporating Beyonder properties could replace some of the necessary shipboard staff... Well, perhaps I could build my own ship modeled after some "ghost ships"...
While Klein was rubbing his hand, he was stroking the magical item formed from the extraordinary characteristics of the "navigator" that the Church of the Night had previously given him to use. This was a "navigation compass."
With this item, even if Klein is not very proficient in navigation knowledge, he will not lose his direction on the violent sea. And for Klein, who had herded Mr.
In this way, I don’t have to worry about whether I will get lost at sea. I can return to the preset location at any time. Of course, the distance cannot be too far. I need to set a coordinate after a period of sailing... …
Klein was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Leonard, who had a strange expression on his face.
"What's wrong, Leonard?"
"...I still feel a little, um, a little strange." Leonard said to Klein next to him with a strange expression on his face: "I thought, for a long time, I really thought you were dead. ”
"Ah..." Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on Klein's face, although his face was now thin and full of murderous intent. But under the background of this smile, he still looks a lot kinder.
"Actually, I also felt that I was dead at that time." There was a hint of memory on Klein's face: "At that time, after I recited the name of the true Creator, I felt the pollution in it corroding me in all directions. "
"You were really contaminated by the True Creator. I thought..."
Leonard paused for a moment, and his voice became smaller and smaller: "I thought you managed to survive by using the magical items behind Chanis Gate to avoid contamination."
"That's not true." Klein thought of this and his tone became slightly calmer: "In the end, the Aurora Society saved me, which I didn't expect."
"Aurora Society?" Leonard couldn't help but raise his voice a little, but after remembering that he was still on the Storm Church's ship, Leonard quickly lowered his voice. Fortunately, the grumpy old pigeons outside didn't hear him, otherwise he would have been in trouble again.
He lowered his voice, looked at Klein in front of him and said:
"I remember that you should have just become an Beyonder at that time. How could you have anything to do with Aurora?"
Leonard couldn't understand how Klein, who had just become a Beyonder, became connected to the Aurora Society.
A strange expression suddenly appeared on Klein's face. He pondered for a moment how to explain this to Leonard. After a moment, he opened his mouth and said:
"I have a friend……"
Leonard looked at Klein and listened to Klein's explanation of the previous situation. While listening to what Klein said, he nodded slightly. His head would turn slightly to the side from time to time, as if he heard something. .
The sea breeze blew through the window, and the sun shone on the ground, illuminating the two figures. The ship carried the two people sailing slowly towards their destination.
