Secret: Those years when I was a foreign aid for the Aurora Club

610

Leonard visited Klein once during his regular patrol, and then completed his patrol normally and returned home.

He opened his eyes on the couch, yawned, and began to waver between getting up for a glass of water and lying down again.

"Have you finished talking to your ex-colleague?" An old voice sounded randomly in my mind.

"The chat is over."

After swaying for half a minute, Leonard lifted the thin quilt covering his body and stood up to boil water.

It was already late at night, and there were only a few hours left before dawn. In order not to increase the gas bill or attract the attention of passers-by, Leonard lit the candlestick, walked back and forth in the dim candlelight, and prepared some for himself. night snack.

"Old man, does God spread faith to stabilize his own state?"

Lifting the brass kettle above the stove and waiting for the fire to boil the water, Leonard couldn't help but ask: "Old man, what is the world like in the Fourth Age? How do people live? Gods Is it the same with the emperor, with absolute authority?"

"Your former colleague told you about 'anchor'?"

Palles was a little surprised.

"I also think this is strange... It stands to reason that if it were Dwayne Dantès, an ancient figure from the Fourth Age, I would take it for granted when mentioning 'anchor', because you often say similar words. But. Klein, as the favored person of the God of The Fool, wouldn't he feel it was treasonous to discuss such things? Can the God The Fool really be so merciful to this extent?"

Pales remained silent, trying hard to recall the relevant deeds of the "Half Fool", but in fact, as angels on adjacent paths, even in the Solomon Empire of the Fourth Age, their communication with each other was still limited.

What's more, Pales was still a young man at that time, growing up under the pressure of Amon, and had a natural fear of ancient existences.

What kind of existence was the former Duke Antigonus? Pales was not very impressed, but he thought that this angel who was a demon wolf but wanted to transform into a human and live with humans was very strange.

Demon wolves are different from vampires. Vampires have faces and cultures similar to humans. As long as they control their impulse to hurt others and have more respect for their food, they can integrate into human society without any obstacles... But in the final analysis, they respect humans more. A mythical creature that is willing to protect humans and can transform into a human should indeed be a kinder and kinder type.

"Maybe." He could only say.

"In the Fourth Age, when I heard you say that disrespecting the strong requires blood sacrifice, I thought you were really cruel and terrifying."

Leonard waited for the water to boil, and the white steam kept breaking open the iron plate covering the spout, making a "pop" sound: "But now I feel that this rule still exists, and the gods are indeed better than the others." The Fourth Age is kinder, and people live better than in the Fourth Age, uh..."

Leonard thought hard and still didn't know how to express his inner thoughts.

When he has some questions, the orthodox standard answer will naturally appear in his mind. For example, when he feels that "there seems to be no difference between blood sacrifice and the sacrifice of believers by the goddess?", the rebuttal immediately appears in his mind: "No, This is different, blood sacrifice is the cruelty of the superior, a capital punishment caused by the backward social system, and the goddess's transaction must have a hidden agenda."

——Then what’s the secret?

Klein said that if Adam could get 0-08, he would have made up for his shortcomings and take a step closer to the status of god. So is the purpose of the goddess to have one more ally of the true god?

Even if this is the case, Leonard cannot find it acceptable to send away 0-08.

"...Old man, let's talk about 'anchor'."

Leonard pinched his eyebrows in distress and changed the topic:

"Do you think the 'Fool' is really that kind? Piety is the noblest virtue of the God's Favored. If the God's Favored do not follow God devoutly like in myths and legends, then why should God favor them? If the 'Fool' doesn't Proclaiming his own holiness and allowing his beloved not to believe in him, how did he make Klein follow him firmly? Because of interests and power? I may not be a very devout believer, but after hearing this I still feel chills all over when I say this, and I want to quickly forget such blasphemous words..."

"Furthermore, Klein Moretti's life is normal. His family has been believers of the goddess for several generations. When was he chosen?"

"I always feel like there's something wrong with the relationship between Klein and The Fool, old man."

Pales Zoroaster fell silent and said nothing.

…

The next morning, Klein maintained his appearance as Dwayne Dantès and headed to the Loen Veterans Officers Club with a heavy heart.

His mood was heavy, because he had already learned through his own channels and some information circulated by secret organizations that the ship he saw in Pulitzer Harbor came from Behrens and was carrying desperate people. Loen officers and soldiers.

Similarly, the members of the Iron Cross also suffered heavy losses and temporarily retreated, but no specific information has been conveyed yet.

Judging from the last appearance of the ship, everyone in Behrens was in dire straits.

He took his valet Enuni and got out of the carriage. Senator Macht was already waiting outside the door, his expression equally ugly.

"They probably won't be angry with you."

Congressman Macht greeted Dawn, and after a few words of greeting, he lowered his voice and said, "Sorry, I didn't expect it to be so dangerous there."

"That's my problem too."

Dawn comforted him: "I also misjudged the intensity of the war."

Councilor Macht forced a smile: "Thank you for your tolerance."

Anyway, the rich man Mr. Dawn Dantès completed their commission. No one wants to see something like this happen later. For some nobles and big shots who have lost their juniors, even if they know intellectually that it has nothing to do with Dwayne Dantès, in fact they are inevitably affected by their personal emotions. Influence, prejudice against Dawn, who returned intact.

Just as they were about to enter the club, another carriage drove over.

The carriage stopped on the side of the road, and the coachman came down and opened the door for the owner. A middle-aged man wearing a black formal suit, with two beautiful moustache, and some fatness came down.

The middle-aged man saw Dawn, and Dawn saw him, and both of them were a little silent.

Congressman Macht looked around and broke the silence: "Good morning, distinguished Earl Hall."

It is quite rare for key figures from the new party to show up outside a Conservative club. But Earl Hall is also one of the clients, and even the leader. It is not too strange to want to know more about what happened in Behrens.

Earl Hall's expression was a little haggard, and he nodded gently, which was quite a face to the congressman without a title.

"Good morning, distinguished count."

After hesitating for a few seconds, Klein chose to say hello, took the initiative to step forward, and took out the well-packed officer's badge from his pocket - he thought that the earl with the new party's stance would not come here, and originally planned to go to "Lun" in the afternoon. It was given to Miss Audrey during the "Student Aid Foundation" - solemnly handed over to the earl.

"Your Majesty gave me some help in Behrens."

Klein tried not to bring any personal feelings, but he spoke sincerely: "I feel sorry for the passing of a young man."

Earl Hall no longer had the enthusiasm for Dawn that he had at the charity donation party that day, and Klein was not surprised. He looked at the badge in silence, and after a long time, he slowly reached out and picked it up.

611

"During the change of divine authority, the True Creator captured the 'Sun' and became the true god of the dual pathways of 'The Sun' and 'The Hanged Man', and successfully took over the Eternal Sun Church."

"Under the influence of the top of the sequence on the path, most people in the Eternal Sun Church don't feel that praising the sun is any different from the past. The replacement of the Holy Emblem makes many people feel panic, but since the warm and bright sun still exists, it is enough Let the people and lower-level believers rest assured.”

"The devout believers of the Eternal Sun cannot take it for granted, so they need more rest and reflection."

"Intis needs to rectify, stay in a neutral position for the time being, and not intervene in the disputes between Feysac and Roen, and Roen and the Southern Continent."

“Countries that believe in the God of Knowledge and Wisdom such as Sehgal and Lunberg also remain neutral for the time being.”

"This is how we enter a gentle transition period of faith."

Edward took 0-08 and wrote quickly on a piece of paper. The true Creator was supervising beside him and not letting Him let himself go.

"The domestic security of Intis has not been greatly affected, and the impact of the divine war has been minimized."

After finishing solemnly, Edward looked at the true Creator.

The True Creator nodded.

"Don't worry about the Mother of Heaven's affairs, right? She doesn't dare to appear in the Northern Continent, nor does she dare to approach the Southern Continent. She can't enter the hidden place. It is estimated that she can only hide in the neutral countries of Feneport and Lunberg. I shouldn't have the guts to seek refuge with you."

"Hmm." The True Creator said, "With your appearance, it is estimated that the gods will no longer use divine vessels."

"Excellent."

So Edward went on to write:

"After discussion, the Intis Council decided to obey the arrangements of the Church of the Creator and will introduce a new social bill in the near future."

"Details regarding the application and management of extraordinary abilities are being formulated in an orderly manner."

Edward stopped writing: "Are you going to let me compile the details? Don't steal them if you are too lazy. 0-08 There must be a limit to governing a country."

Think about the true Creator:

"Leave this matter to the Iron Cross. Their creed is to make the extraordinary the mainstream of the world. They have already had relevant rules and regulations, but the premise is that they do not abuse their extraordinary abilities and affect normal production activities."

"You can learn from the Balam Empire in this regard."

Edward then put 0-08 aside, rolled up the paper and put it in the storage box.

"Bailan, or the entire Southern Continent, whether they are civilians or rich people, have a relatively basic understanding of extraordinary abilities. They are often vaguely aware of the existence of 'sequences' and 'pathways'. After all, the Rose School and The abilities displayed by the extraordinary members of the Death Church are definitely different, and the abilities displayed by the lower-level personnel and the higher-level personnel are also different."

"Ah, the current governor Azik Eggers...retired and re-employed? He has handled people's livelihood issues quite well."

Edward touched his chin and made a casual gesture:

“You can now see living corpses policing the streets as well as living people, spirit creatures and undead supervising security issues in the city, skeletons working with farmers to cultivate land, and over the past few months, people have become familiar with the extraordinary existence. They have gained a clearer understanding of it, accepted its existence, and most people joined the church because they were eager for power. The God of Death has made a huge concession, after all, he doesn’t really need an anchor.”

"But this depends on the absolute influence of the 'God of Death' on the lower level. The God of Death has a transcendent status. As long as the two archons in charge of religion and secularity have the intention to restrain the Extraordinaries, the Extraordinaries at the bottom will not dominate. .”

"You can't whisper the law in the ears of your followers, right?"

If you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem impossible.

It just so happens that "The Hanged Man" and "The Sun" are both ways to exert absolute influence on believers from top to bottom. In addition to making people praise the sun, they can also listen to them and go crazy. As long as the True Creator has this intention, the fanatical believers of the Aurora Society will definitely carry it out regardless, and the new believers of the "Sun" path will definitely not have any objections to maintaining social order.

"I will restrain my followers." The True Creator is obviously accustomed to governing extreme believers.

Edward spread his hands and began to try to pull out a few of 0-08's hairs. 0-08 did not dare to move in God's hands:

"Anyway, you can't expect me to solve this problem with just a pen."

"It doesn't matter, just maintain stability. Extraordinaries who think highly of themselves are often just prey. Careers will wait for opportunities, but extraordinary activity does not mean that their opportunities are coming, but represents the competition in the extraordinary world. It’s going to be more intense.”

The True Creator nodded casually: "You intervened in the dispute between me and the Eternal Blazing Sun. There is a high probability that you will exist in the new holy book. You can choose to find a suitable job in Intis."

Edward's eyes lit up: "You don't want me to help you maintain law and order, do you?"

"I still have a lot of things to be busy with, such as going to the Southern Continent to recover the extraordinary characteristics of the adjacent pathways, recovering the uniqueness of the adjacent pathways, and then going to the Eastern Continent to recover the source matter."

"I think you'd like it."

"More than happy? This is simply a genius idea."

The devil changed the subject: "But your request must be that I only torture evil people, right? This is not beneficial to the devil's performance. Don't think about turning me into a devil who punishes evil people and then distorting my image. Then I will become an angel."

In the myths of the old times, hell is just a place where scraps from heaven and earth are recycled. Unwanted scum, people born before the Lord, and unbaptized sinners are all exiled here to await the arrival of the "Day of Judgment." , die again, and be saved. Those who live a prosperous life enjoy blessings during their lifetime, but will suffer equally after death because they have already enjoyed all their blessings while alive.

As for "sinners will suffer eternal pain in hell", it is a lie, because only heaven has eternity.

If one is in hell and suffers but still has eternal life, this is a blasphemy against heaven and the Lord.

"I am a new-age demon. I favor evil people. I will choose smart people to become demons and make the world a hell."

Edward smiled and said: "In addition, the star realm already has my symbol, and the 'abyss' has been integrated into a corner of reality. As long as you are malicious and hurt others, you can see the devil and the abyss in your heart. Get strength from it.”

"It would be a good thing if you could really bring all the bad guys together."

The true Creator was not at all concerned: "It will be convenient to serve it in one pot at that time."

"Courage is commendable, but the devil is not a hyena."

"As long as you let the devil help you maintain law and order, you should go and protect Klein. But out of respect for the Creator, I will help you maintain order in the country within the scope of my personal interests. When you are ready, I will Go to the Eastern Continent.”

Edward straightened his coat, put 0-08 back into the box, threw it into his collection cabinet, and stood up holding his cane.

"The fighting situation in Fusac is good. Death and sin attract me there."

"Self-destruction may be the best future for the earth. To this day, I still have no expectations for this world."

The devil put on his hat, smiled and waved goodbye to the true Creator, and walked into the open door of hell.

"I'll wait for you below."
