"While Backlund was rebuilding, the Loen Kingdom's colonial army in East Bailang had many conflicts with local cult groups and resistance forces, including the Rose School of Thought and organizations that believed in the God of Death, such as 'East Bailang' Longfu Congress' type of organization.
And it is suspected that there is friction between spies from Intis, Feysac and other countries and secretly supported warlords, as well as attacks and harassment of the Loen Kingdom's army. "
"At the same time, in West Balam, the Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun has officially declared war on the newly established Church of the Aurora and its affiliated Creator Savior Association. The progress of the war has already affected a considerable portion of the Loen Kingdom's shipping lanes."
Alger paused for a moment and said to the people in front of him:
“For the same reason, the international relations between the Kingdom of Loen and the Republic of Intis have recently deteriorated.
Furthermore, Feysac also has a vague intention to launch an attack on East Balam in the southern continent, which is a colony belonging to the Kingdom of Loen. Therefore, the Kingdom of Loen is now facing the possibility of being attacked jointly by the Intis Republic and the Feysac Empire.
"Not to mention, pirates have been increasingly rampant recently. Furthermore, many powerful Beyonders have appeared on the seas, ready to compete for the position of Pirate General. The presence of these pirates has gradually stretched the Loen Kingdom's navy. While this has also affected the shipping routes of the other two countries, it's definitely not as significant as the impact on the Loen Kingdom."
"This is the current situation of the Loen Kingdom, but you should have heard of this news. So I think this news is of little value, and you don't need to pay gold pounds for it..."
Alger rarely spoke in a slightly humorous tone, but he saw a look of shock on Audrey's face, and her expression suddenly became serious.
"Could it be that the Kingdom of Loen is not... wrong? I went to the port of the Kingdom of Loen before. Although the local residents did not know what happened specifically at that time, they knew that under the leadership of the Church of Storms, The army is currently at war with the rebels in the Southern Continent. And the Beyonders in Backlund do know..."
Alger suddenly came back to his senses: "Miss Justice, don't you know about this?"
"There has been no news related to Backlund so far." Audrey felt a fear arise in her heart. This fear came from nowhere, but it was like a huge haze shrouded her. on her body.
She took a deep breath and used her audience instinct to suppress her outward emotions back into her heart.
This is undoubtedly a very strange thing. Even ordinary people along the coast knew that the Loen Kingdom was at war with the Southern Continent, but Backlund, the capital of the Loen Kingdom, did not know the news.
No, it doesn’t necessarily mean that you don’t know the news. If this news was completely unknown, the number of Extraordinaries and troops in the royal capital would not increase, nor would they allow themselves to discover the anomaly of Backlund.
——If Backlund himself didn't know that he had any abnormalities, how could he be discovered?
Audrey swallowed, not knowing what to say.
Many speculations emerged in her mind, but she couldn't decide which one was true.
The only thing Audrey can be sure of now is that the nobles of Backlund may know that the Kingdom of Loen is at war with the Southern Continent, and that there are dangerous situations around them that the other two countries may attack at any time, but they have not mentioned it to others at all, just like It was as if he had completely forgotten about it.
It's like they remember everything and do everything but ignore the reasons for doing them.
Audrey felt a little impatient. She knocked on the table in front of her anxiously. Her pupils gradually became thinner and longer, and seemed to be turning into a pair of vertical pupils!
For extraordinary people who have not obtained divinity, such changes usually mean loss of control!
At this moment, a deep voice suddenly echoed in the hall, and the power of the gray mist reverberated, breaking the bad changes in Audrey's body.
Audrey came back to her senses and turned to look at Mr. Fool, who was holding a crystal ball as bright as a star with his left hand. She heard Mr. Fool say in his usual relaxed tone:
"Adam."
-
Klein knew that there was a high probability that Adam was responsible for such a thing.
And he has now learned to put the blame on the two brothers, Amon and Adam, just like the Aurora Society was forced to admit that it was responsible for various incidents.
Anyway, the members of the Tarot Society have no way to verify it with these two brothers, let alone that this matter is most likely the work of Adam and his Twilight Hermits.
Otherwise, other Extraordinaries simply would not be able to achieve such a level.
It was impossible... to "forget" the entire Backlund aristocracy.
Normal updates will resume on Tuesday.
Chapter 217: Feeling chilled by the tide of the times
Although Adam never had any concrete evidence, he knew that the tide of the times, which had been under his control and advancing in an orderly manner, might have gotten out of control and poured down on his head.
-
Mr. "Fool" has spoken!
Alger, the Hanged Man, perked up. Looking at Mr. Fool before him, some new ideas suddenly emerged in his mind.
Mr. "The Fool" will not remind himself, the members of the Tarot Club, for no reason, so does it mean that Mr. "The Fool" has already partially anticipated the current situation and has responded to it?
But Klein was not prepared to continue talking on this topic. It would be wrong to say anything. Before confirming whether the person who created the large-scale "neglect" and "forgetting" in Backlund was Adam, Klein would not allow himself to characterize this matter as a "fool".
However, according to Klein's speculation, it is very likely that this large-scale influence did come from Adam. Klein knows that extraordinary people in the "audience" path can use a variety of means to influence the psychology of others, thereby steering things in the direction they want.
For example, the ability of "0-08" is actually the external manifestation of the ability of a high-level Beyonder of the "Audience" path. A truly brilliant "writer" basically does not rely solely on this ability to influence reality and guide the surroundings to become like the scene imagined in their mind.
Klein speculated that if this matter was truly related to Adam, then Adam most likely didn't act on his own, but rather had certain "audience" saints within his "Twilight Hermits" influence the nobles through various means.
Then, the nobles' subconscious forgetfulness of the dangers of war was used to weaken the combat effectiveness of the Loen Kingdom's army.
Klein could probably guess why Adam did this. Just imagine what would happen if a war broke out and the Loen Kingdom's army was quickly defeated?
The belief in the Storm Lord and the Night Goddess who support the royal family in the Kingdom of Loen will quickly weaken. For Adam, this is a good thing that kills two birds with one stone.
Needless to say, the goddess of the night has a part of the "God of Death" belief in the southern continent, and is handing over the task of spreading the anchor to Klein. She is not too afraid of the collapse of the Loen Kingdom's belief.
The goddess of the night's own anchor in the northern continent is reduced rapidly in a short period of time, which is what she wants to see, so that the goddess of the night can complete her previous plan faster and attract the god of war to proactively provoke a war between gods.
Although Klein didn't know what backup plan the Night Goddess had left to deal with the God of War, he believed that the Night Goddess must have made a plan, otherwise she would not have arranged for herself to preach the teachings of the God of Death at sea.
——The God of Death that he promotes is a more feminine image of Death. Basically, he can use symbols to guide his faith to the "artificial God of Death".
If the Storm Lord's anchor were shaken significantly, it would be a good thing for Adam. The weaker the three gods Feng, Bai, and Zhi were, the fewer obstacles he would face when he was promoted to "Dreamer" later.
Moreover, after watching his half-body true creator being hunted down by the "Eternal Blazing Sun", Adam felt that he could not place his expectations on these traitors.
"So, do I need to ask the church for help on this matter?"
Audrey calmed herself and asked the people in front of her. She was undecided, unsure whether to ask the church for help and have it intervene in the strange changes happening to the Backlund nobles.
The most important thing is that what Audrey is most afraid of now is whether it will cause other problems after she reveals that she has discovered the anomaly; she wonders whether she will be exposed to the eyes of the mastermind behind the scenes, thereby detonating the buried bomb in advance. greater hidden dangers.
After all, Audrey was only a girl who had just become an adult for a few months. When faced with such a serious matter, even as a "spectator", she was unable to make up her mind for a while.
The atmosphere at the Tarot meeting fell silent for a moment, and no one spoke. Alger, the "Hanged Man" who had known Audrey for the longest time, considered for a moment and said to Miss Justice in front of him:
"I suggest you not to expose your current situation easily."
His tone paused slightly, and he further explained to Miss Justice in front of him:
"I don't think the two major churches would remain completely silent after such a large-scale 'forgetting' incident occurred in Backlund. In other words, there are two possibilities in this matter:
First, regarding this matter, the two major churches in Backlund are now aware of it. However, due to the insufficient sequence of investigators or the instigator of this incident using some method, the extraordinary people of the church are unable to notice that they are being attacked. What exactly is the forgotten event;”
Alger changed his tone and said seriously:
"The second possibility is that the mastermind behind this incident is hidden in the church, secretly assisting Adam mentioned by Mr. Fool, or the organization that belongs to Adam.
Whatever the possibility, I do not recommend that you go to the church for help. Even if Backlund's situation is better now and belongs to the former situation I proposed, you can't explain why you can escape the influence. "
"In other words, I can't let others discover the fact that I have discovered Backlund's anomaly?" Audrey's tone was a little nervous:
"If the Loen Kingdom's army is defeated, the biggest beneficiaries should be the Feysac Empire and the Republic of Intis. Mr. 'The Hanged Man', maybe I can start investigating the spies of Feysac or Intis?
Perhaps, the extraordinary people of the church failed to realize this, and it was the 'Angel of Utopia' Adam who caused this incident with the help of ordinary people. "
"I think this is what you can do right now." Alger nodded, confirming Audrey's idea.
"I understand..." Audrey lowered her voice and murmured to herself.
…………
After the tarot session.
Backlund, Hall family.
Several pieces of blood-red feathers fell from the sky, turning into an angel covered in scarlet armor and landing on Audrey. The angel seemed to embrace Audrey and merge into her body.
Sure enough, this is the angel serving Mr. Fool...
Audrey Hall sat up from her soft bed and stepped barefoot on the soft cushions. Susie, who was guarding the door while Audrey attended the Tarot Club, jumped up excitedly and threw herself into Audrey's arms.
Susie immediately noticed a slightly tired look on Audrey's face, and her tail that was wagging suddenly stopped. It looked at Audrey in front of it and couldn't help but ask:
"What's wrong, Audrey? What's on your mind?"
"I'm fine, Susie." Audrey shook her head and said worriedly.
She looked at Susie in her arms, raised her hand and touched the smooth fur on Susie's body: "Just now, I just knew a few more things. Things that cannot be known by others."
"What's going on, Audrey?" Susie looked at the girl in front of her and asked with concern, "Can I help you?"
Audrey shook her head silently, feeling a little worried in her heart. She held Susie in her arms and fell into a long thought.
Susie also lay quietly in Audrey's arms, waiting for what Audrey would say next, without any anxiety in her body. After a long time, Audrey made a decision, looked at Susie in front of her and said:
"Susie, I want you to help me with something."
"Say." Susie looked at Audrey in front of her, with no impatience in her eyes.
"I hope you can pretend to be me." Audrey paused, looked at Susie who was stunned in front of her with a dazed expression, and without any additional explanation, she said in one breath:
"I have a very important matter that I need to investigate on my own, but I can't reveal my identity. So, I will start pretending to be sick in the past two days and try to avoid contact with my parents.
When the time comes, I'll need someone to help me with, um, 'alibi'! Susie, you can disguise yourself as my voice and not come out of the room to create the feeling that I'm still in the room. "
Although Audrey's plan was a bit naive, Susie didn't think it was naive. Susie thought about it for a moment, feeling that her brain was a little overloaded, and she almost made a "woof" sound.
After a while, Susie gently pressed Audrey's hand with her front paws, made a gesture of stroking, and said helplessly to Audrey:
"But, Audrey, I'm just a dog. At least, well, at least you tell me what if someone tries to get into your room?"
What if someone wants to enter my room? This is indeed a problem...
Audrey couldn't help but frown. It was really difficult for her to solve this problem. After all, Susie could only imitate the form but could not imitate Audrey's body.
At present, Audrey feels that her sequence does not have the ability to disguise, so there is no way to help Susie disguise.
What if Earl Hall entered Audrey's room directly after calling his daughter for a long time to see how his daughter was doing now, and then found that the person who responded to him just now was his daughter's dog...
Hiss—thinking of this scene, Audrey suddenly felt a little chilly.
Does Dad think he's been cursed by some evil Beyonder and turned into Susie... Wow, this scene...
Audrey was lost in thought as she stroked Susie's head and said with some uncertainty in her tone:
"Perhaps I can find a few magical items that will allow me to return here quickly, or disguise your appearance - Susie, we still can't be impatient, as this may have the opposite effect..."
"Well, if only Professor Moriarty and Mr. Abraham were here, they might be able to do something..."
