Edward looked at him in surprise, then thought of something, and praised him half sincerely:

"remarkably brave."

"Of all the people I have killed, you are the first one who dares to talk to me."

...The timing was not right, so Klein resisted the desire to complain.

Then, He looked at Medici, who seemed to want to say something, and joked with a smile: "I told Him that you could be resurrected, and He still didn't believe it. He had never really seen the power of the sefirah, and he didn't believe that he could bring it back to life. The authority of the future is overdrawn into the present. Now, He sees it.”

Medici was listening to the information transmitted by the members of "War Red" through the spiritual link, and ignored the devil's teasing.

"Don't listen to him forcing you to do anything."

War Angel and Demon maintained a social safety distance of more than five meters and told Klein angrily:

"Hurry up and say a few words to him and then follow me back to Trier. Now the Intelligence Agency and War Red need talents like you."

After the death of the Black Gloves "Vice Admiral Disease" of the Witch Sect, it became much more difficult to trace their traces from the sea, but there were still traces - such as the "White Saint" that Medici had seen. Catalina is worth looking for.

War Red actually possesses a considerable number of "Witch" path sealed objects, but because Chike was originally a male and now has a very twisted personality, even a woman who accidentally left the Hunter and has no sense of belonging is not willing to Balance out War Red's lopsided gender and role ratio.

Hearing these words in this atmosphere, Klein held back his laughter and asked quietly through the spiritual link:

"Is there such a shortage of people?"

Medici snorted sadly.

Not to mention the reorganization of the legion that has not yet been fully trained, there is a serious shortage of reliable and high-sequence intelligence personnel, and the leader of the Intis intelligence department is nothing more than a sequence 4 "cunning mage".

Although the Secret Order cooperates with the Sauron family and obtains the External Security Intelligence Bureau to make profits for itself and train new recruits, their middle and high-ranking people actually have little interest in intelligence work. However, from Sequence 9 to Sequence 6, the intelligence bureau's recruitment was very smooth, with ample opportunities for acting, broadening one's horizons, and opportunities for actual combat. It was a quite successful selection process. Moreover, the salary of the department itself is also quite good, which can attract a wide range of extraordinary people who have become poor because they have taken an extraordinary path. The "faceless people" are even more comfortable in it.

The "Secret Puppet Master" in Sequence 5 is a watershed. Those who can find mermaids are the outstanding ones in the Secret Order who are lucky and courageous. After they fully play the role of "Secret Puppet Master" in their work, they will use intelligence work and connections to find those who can. A chance to kill a demigod.

But after all, not every Sequence 5 can do it.

Therefore, they have a greater chance of finding a idle job to enjoy life, or simply resigning and returning to the Secret Order, returning to the extraordinary world to continue working hard.

Originally, the Secret Order had only two Sequence 5s. Rosago, who was lost to Luen for unknown reasons last year, made the situation even worse for the Secret Order, which was already losing influence again and again. So far, it has been lost to Luen. The extraordinary characteristics of En's "divineers" have not yet been recovered.

Now, Medici has begun to think about how long the ready-made Sequence 3 Comrade Klein Moretti will receive on-the-job training, and then which department of the Intelligence Bureau he will be assigned to.

"Are you done talking?"

Edward seemed to hear the two people muttering in the spiritual link. He looked at the watch on his wrist and said:

"First of all, it's Thursday, December 1, 1350."

"Klein, you have been dead for half a month. But you are quite good at choosing a day to resurrect. This saves me the time to calculate."

Thursday? I'm sleeping, no, I've gone through at least two Tarot sessions in the process of dying. I don't know how everyone is doing now. I'll go there later... uh, yes, I don't have a Source Castle now. I'm afraid I can't get it. I have to confirm everyone's situation in person...

Klein planned the route in his mind. Forsi, Xio, Emlyn White and Audrey were all in Backlund, Leonard returned to Tingen, Cattleya seemed to be in Trier, and Alger stayed in The followers of "Poseidon" are developing in Bayam on the sea. Now there is no normal way to contact Derrick. You have to go there by yourself... By the way, the Angel of Destiny Ourolius seems to be there? Forget it, forget it, because of Will's matter, I'd better not get too close to this angel...

"Where's Zaratul?" Klein was temporarily curious.

"He died too, about ten minutes earlier than you." Edward spread his hands, "I don't know where he was resurrected now, but since you are already alive, he has probably been resurrected, or is weighing the pros and cons and waiting for resurrection. opportunity."

Sure enough, the Miracle Master can completely control the chance of his own resurrection? Will even had to choose a date of birth with mystical significance. If Zarathul hadn't been resurrected yet, he must be looking for some symbol of mysticism.

Klein calmed down and put back his divergent thoughts:

"What do you want from me?"

"It was mainly my ally's idea to chat with you, but now I do have the idea to say a few words to you."

Edward thought for a moment, then smiled, and his standing posture became relaxed, as if he planned to chat for a while: "Let's talk about my ally first. I still care about his last wish. You have a spiritual link. ? Can you understand who God is?"

Medici immediately looked at Klein, who blinked.

"God?"

He vaguely recalled a little bit. This part of the information seemed to have been sealed by himself and could only be unlocked by an angel. The safer part was the "Sea of ​​Chaos" mentioned by Amon on Source Castle... Klein did not understand." The meaning of the noun "God" did not connect this word with the inaudible knowledge such as the sealed sequence. He asked curiously in doubt:

"who is it?"

He heard Medici breathe a sigh of relief and answered the question before the devil: "Now that there is a spiritual link, I will tell you briefly - you won't understand even if you say more. In short, it is the most powerful person in the entire universe. One of the three gods.”

"I see."

One of the three most powerful gods in the universe? It seems that the distinction between the strength and weakness of the gods is not very clear. These three should have many paths, and they also have the source of essence... Klein nodded with some confusion, and turned to look at Edward:

"Then what?"

Edward began by saying, "Knowledge is free now."

Then he looked at Medici: "I won't ask you about your understanding of God. You have never seen the real God. He just appeared and was pushed back by you before he said a few words. God actually treats you now." It’s incredible that I don’t have any bad feelings.”

Medici laughed twice but said nothing.

Listening to this conversation, Klein vaguely felt that this matter seemed to be related to the "Redemption Rose".

Edward paused and looked at Klein:

"Medici said the same thing. God has great power, but it doesn't matter. There is no difference between Sequence 2 or Sequence 0 or the multi-channel true god for most humans and extraordinary people. However, God has a hobby, that It’s about creating the world He wants.”

"Create the world He wants..." Klein thought about this sentence and felt that the description was familiar, but he couldn't think of where he had heard something similar. So he asked again, "The world He wants is What does it look like?”

Edward smiled slowly, as if it was a sign of bewitching people. He said in a very seductive tone:

“He loves a world that is perfect, peaceful, and happy, free from all strife and division.”

"In this world, God is the only one, and God is all the truth. As long as He wants peace, there will never be war on the earth. As long as He wants to make mankind happy, mankind can live in the golden age forever. An unimaginably happy life.”

"God?" Klein's eyes widened slightly and he blurted out, "Is this the God in the Bible, the original Bible?"

Edward nodded: "That's right."

"And His name is more than just this. He is the Omniscient and Almighty, the Creator, the ruler of the star realm, and the original God."

"..."

Klein was speechless for a moment. When he first heard the term "God", he didn't react immediately and didn't immediately connect this title with the famous God in the old era. After knowing that some of the stories from the Old Era really had mystical effects, Klein swallowed and began to think of an unprecedented direction—

"If God is real, at least in the time when I was still alive, then wouldn't the Bible be not a fictional story, but a story that really happened around BC..."

"As for Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun, Amon always refers to him by the name 'Lord of Mysteries'. The former should be his name in the old era, or an identity... People who are connected with him will be selected and be Grab it from Source Castle and wait to put it down."

After thinking for a while, Klein suddenly remembered something, frowned slightly, and raised his head:

"In the stories of the Old Testament, God always reshapes human beings for various reasons. There are legends of the Great Flood in the myths of many nations and countries. If He really existed, those things done in the name of God would Did He also tacitly approve of wars and conquests?”

"This seems to be contrary to the 'happy world without disputes' that He wants. Is He schizophrenic?"

Medici rubbed his nose and still didn't speak.

"Why do you think this is schizophrenia? You should think differently..."

"Do you think human wars fall into the category of 'unhappiness' in His eyes?"

Edward replied lightly: "In the past era, whether they were crusaders or devout ascetics, they were fighting for their inner faith and convictions, to conquer cities and capture believers for God. Why do you think this is not happiness? Woolen cloth?"

"But others..." Klein suddenly understood, "Sure enough, only believers will be favored by God?"

He did nothing, but suddenly the circumstances around him changed.

Edward showed the dream that the true Creator had in the Sea of ​​Chaos. A city-state with extremely advanced technology was quickly constructed. The countless new devices stunned Klein, as if he had seen the fantasy of the future in a science fiction magazine. People's lives are prosperous, and there are many entertainment activities to choose from, including movies, art exhibitions, shopping, and the great abundance of material life has brought about the perfection of the spiritual world. Artistic creations and cultural creations are springing up like mushrooms after a spring rain. Klein can see that He was so overwhelmed that even Medici showed curious eyes.

But Medici’s focus is not on the world itself. He observed the crowds and buildings around him and quickly said:

“There are five churches in the city and there are a lot of people praying.”

"What is that thing that projects the image of the picture on the curtain? Everyone watching will say a five-minute collective prayer before watching."

Medici looked at it for a while longer, found the movie theater's show schedule, and narrowed his eyes:

"The only pictures they can watch are allusions and anecdotes related to the contents of the Holy Scriptures..."

After being reminded like this, Klein finally turned his eyes away from the bizarre high-tech buildings and the delicious-looking buffet food. He observed his surroundings and soon frowned:

"All are praying...all are laughing...but their art and creations only praise God..."

He couldn't even find a painting without a cross.

"You don't seem to have a very good expression on your face." Edward said, "Don't you like this kind of world?"

He looked at Medici first, and Medici just raised his head. Their eyes were in contact for a while, and Medici sneered:

“Is this what you were telling me before, God’s sheepfold?”

"Heh, if you let me judge, I would like to set this world on fire. It's so boring and makes me sick just looking at it."

"But, indeed, there will be no war in such a world, the earth will never rise to war, and no one will die because of the war. Those brave warriors will no longer have a chance to shine, but they will also get the same ordinary life. happiness."

"That means you're not too annoying."

Edward looked at Klein again and asked pointedly, "What about you?"

The more Klein watched, the more frightened he became. He thought of a word - "Uncanny Valley". Each of these people would be an incredible devout believer if taken alone, but within it, ordinary people could be found everywhere. After seeing this kind of world for a long time, Klein was even a little afraid.

He hesitantly looked away, looked at the devil, bit his lip, and asked:

"Will they continue to live like this?"

"Yes."

"The same for everyone? Eat, pray, entertain, pray, get a theological education of all places, then teach your children to pray, and just live like this, waiting to one day return to the arms of God?"

Edward nodded again:

"Yes. Medici just said that this is God's sheepfold. No matter which race you are, as long as you enter God's pasture, your race's own characteristics and history will be erased and become the same flock of sheep. Pasture, and go on expeditions for Him.”

Klein pursed his lips and asked abruptly:

"Is Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun a being with the same power as God? How much do you know about Him?"

Edward immediately pursed his lips tightly and narrowed his eyes, and even Medici stopped scanning the surroundings.

After a few seconds, Edward's expression returned to normal, as if he had thought of something, and his tone even became a little relaxed and playful:

"He is the 'Old One' who was active from the end of the last civilization to the middle of the First Age, and is the 'great master of the spiritual world'."

"'Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun' is his title in the Western Continent. It is one of his countless names. His other titles are: 'King of Time and Space', 'Beacon of Destiny', 'Incarnation of Source Castle', 'Domination of the Spirit World' 'and..."

Having said this, Edward paused and said:

"'Lord of Mysteries'."

"The Incarnation of the Origin Castle..." Klein nodded without surprise, "So God is the 'Incarnation of the Sea of ​​Chaos'?"

"That's right."

"Essences of matter all have corresponding personalities?"

"Yes." Edward smiled and said as if he was in a good mood, "Since you are hanging on to the spiritual link, I don't mind telling you now - there is still a sequence to go beyond the true god, that is, through the source of matter, becoming Part of the incarnation of the Sefirot.”

"Lord of Time and Space", "Beacon of Destiny", "Incarnation of Origin Castle", "Dominator of the Spirit World", "Lord of Mysteries"... This is the "Lord of Mysteries" in Amon's mouth... Klein muttered silently With each of these names, I felt that the shadow in my heart became a lot bigger.

He immediately thought of a question and hesitated:

"What about controlling the source of matter?"

"That's just a beautiful thought." Edward smiled, "Divinity lasts forever, and we all have to return to the beginning and live over and over again."

He paused for a second and then said:

"By the way, now that you know the world that God loves, I want to tell you that the true Creator no longer exists, and He is about to become God to create such a world. His last wish is that you want to go Stop Him.”

Klein's breath hitched.

The sound of wind and snow in my ears seemed to suddenly become louder, and the sky and the ground were filled with white snow, like a white desert, trying to drown everything.

It's so cold.

Klein's eyes lowered slightly, looking at the perfect and happy world at his feet, and fell into silence.

Medici silently observed his side face, and saw the young ancient scholar thinking for a moment, as if he had made up his mind, and suddenly he breathed a sigh of relief, and then the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

"I thought about it."

Klein raised his head, his eyes reflected this beautiful world, with endless yearning, but seemed to be burning with blazing flames:

"I can't accept the world that God loves... It's not that I can't accept those happy, beautiful and rich lives, but I hope that humans can live like humans, instead of entering the so-called sheepfold and becoming the so-called Sheep, pastured, harvested.”

He must be expecting this, right?

If He had not been desperate, He would not have chosen such a world. He wouldn't have allowed himself to stop Him if he hadn't been helpless.

"but……"

He sighed softly: "I will not destroy such happiness."

"There will definitely be people who long to go to such a world, such a heaven on earth. At least in such a world there will be no pain, no hunger, and no wandering children picking up garbage to eat...and I, if my destiny is really If God can guide me on the path of becoming the 'Lord of Mysteries', then I will gain the strength to gain the power to compete with God. If God has a sheepfold, then I will seize His sheepfold and divide the people who have no faith. The world of existence.”

"I hope that under my protection, everyone will no longer regard prayer as a necessity in life and piety as the only virtue."

"They have freedom, they have the power to think, they can analyze the principles of the world, and they also have...the power to choose to go to God's kingdom of heaven."

"I hope people can choose their own destiny and their own world."

After saying these words, even Klein himself was shocked.

Seeing Medici's shocked eyes, he actually felt a trance - he seemed to see his future path, his future destiny. He was just about to embark on this path, but the true Creator was already waiting at the end. He did.

The "Hanged Man" symbolizes sacrifice. The seniors have already died first. Next, it is Klein's turn to take over the relay.

The strange thing is that Klein doesn't feel overwhelmed or self-indulgent.

——It is really unbelievable that a mediocre, ordinary and inconspicuous clerk like him, an extraordinary person with a special destiny, could one day be able to say such words.

In other words, he may not be thinking about anything now, just looking at the figure of the real Creator who has gone away and been swallowed up by the light, and then, like Him, he will follow the footsteps of his predecessors and guide the future generations who are looking for the way.
