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

748

"No, no, no, you misunderstood. I definitely have no intention of colluding with the teacher."

"Please rest assured, the teacher will definitely not join forces with me to deceive people for your tens of thousands of pounds of property. Nowadays, many factory owners, plantation owners and nobles rely on the malice in their hearts and the connection with the abyss to gain power. As long as he wants to You can have money whenever you want.”

"How could he die? If I had known that it was the teacher who was chasing you, I would not have added the function of death to your substitute."

"Because it's useless."

"Oh, oh, there is no need to add money. Since it has been installed, it is a benefit for large orders. Please believe that I still have contracts and business ethics. After all, I once studied in Trier, the commercial capital two hundred years ago. Pass the book.”

"Academic qualifications... well, let's not talk about such sad issues."

…

After a round of hard explanations, Klein finally reluctantly believed that it was not the devil and the prisoner-teacher-student team that made him homeless.

After all, what Richard said makes sense. Both true gods and demons are not short of his own money. Klein has seen Edward Vaughn’s Trier palace-style mansion. The cultural relics and ornaments inside can probably make his uncle Bought 160 Clund Street.

But he began to wonder if this angel came to take advantage of the situation after learning about the situation. After all, he had just witnessed Richard Ernst mourning two seconds of silence for Medici losing his body for the second time and immediately came up with the idea of ​​building the Cathedral of Light!

"Don't show that look of distrust, it hurts."

Richard selectively ignored Klein's complicated eyes, and asked Medici with a warm smile: "I remember that His Highness the Red Angel ordered three possessed dolls from me last year, and it seems that there is still one left in the warehouse. You didn't use it. Now that your body is gone, do you need me to use the spare body to upgrade your product? If you have flesh and blood, you can get more professional services, which won't be too expensive."

Hearing quite "modern" vocabulary from the other party many times, Klein was very uncomfortable at first, but when he thought that the other party's teacher was a remnant of the past, he got used to it after a while, and even became a little weirdly friendly.

Klein thought Medici would roll his eyes, but Medici didn't.

He tapped the armrest of the single sofa with his fingers, pondered for a few seconds, and then said smoothly: "Okay, it is indeed needed. Didn't the Bound God of your Rose School also have his mental illness cured? Please give me some advice. Yes, I will have the money deducted from the church’s expenses.”

"no problem!"

Richard's smile became more amiable. He straightened "Dawn Dantès" who was leaning to one side, asked him to pick up a cigar, pretended to be chatting with the guests, then turned around and walked out, exhorting: :

"You two can chat casually, I'll leave for a while."

"The servants are waiting outside. If you want to drink tea, you can ask anytime."

He walked out and left in a familiar manner. Looking at his back, Klein was silent for a few seconds, feeling more and more that this home no longer felt like his own.

As soon as His front foot stepped away, Medici's back foot spoke:

"Did you see that? Neither of these two paths are good people. You should quickly become an angel, so that our church can still be a bit of a deterrent."

Medici seduced Klein in the spiritual link to quickly advance to Sequence 2.

Klein did not refute the term "our church". He replied in the spiritual link: "I think I need to stay in Sequence 3 for a while to stabilize my spirituality and become familiar with extraordinary abilities."

"What's so stable? Being promoted and not dying means success."

Born mythical creatures do not understand human caution, but Klein has said so. Medici will not force them to return to Intis immediately to get promotions with extraordinary characteristics: "Bakerlandry is the safest now, you Where are you going to stay and where are you going to be promoted? By the way, 'Lost History Returns to the Current Era', your promotion ceremony... I remember it seems that the Lord intends for you to bring out the people from the Eastern Continent, right?"

Klein nodded slightly:

"Yes."

"I'm thinking about this now. Aurora will have a way from the outside world to the Eastern Continent. If I can successfully bring the survivors out, my mission and ritual will be completed, and I will have the ability to advance to Sequence 2. The chance... Where should I find my potion?"

The Secret Order was washed away once by the out-of-control Zaratul, and the high-level sequences may have been directly aggregated at that time, and the angels would most likely not be able to escape, which means that Zaratul may have more than one Miracle Master. But he is still in the resurrected state, and there is still a chance of resurrection and a spiritual imprint. Klein is not so picky about eating even this. Obviously, this Sequence 2 has no fate with him.

He thought he might have to work hard, but he didn't expect Medici to give him a huge surprise.

"Well, that's not a problem."

The moment Red Angel opened his mouth, Klein felt the warmth of home:

"According to your habits, you would rather find materials to prepare magic potions than eat the extraordinary properties raw. Then Zarath will definitely not consider it. We should try to find some more normal materials, sealed objects or something."

"He is not completely dead yet and can still be resurrected. His spirit will definitely make you drink a pot."

"Similarly, you'd better not take this idea because of Antigonus's extraordinary characteristics. Let's not mention that the wolf is still sleeping on the top of Honakis. Even if you can convince the current goddess of the night to allow He made an exception and stripped an extraordinary characteristic from Antigonus, and you must not use it - the spirit inside is far more powerful and crazy than you imagine, and you will go crazy once you use it."

Medici deliberately told these words to himself. While listening carefully, Klein played the role of a scholar, carefully recording and analyzing these ancient anecdotes, trying to make himself digest some magic potions before entering the Eastern Continent.

The Red Angel's words confirmed to him that the ancestor of the Antigonus family was indeed the unique King of Angels who had been sleeping for thousands of years in the town on the top of the mountain. He slept there, so that future fortune-tellers were constantly attracted to enter the hidden place in various ways. A certain fortune-teller who held the "Fool" card was also gathered there, and then died, and the blasphemy card was Fall at His feet.

"The current goddess of the night..."

Klein thought for a while and asked Medici with the mentality of archaeological study:

"I have seen mythical creature forms of the 'Sleepless One' path. Their bodies will grow black hair and canine-like limbs. I have also seen human bodies in towns in the Hidden Land. , and a sculpture of a goddess with four wolf-clawed arms.”

Medici said casually:

"Anyway, the place you saw is the 'Land of Night', and the goddess on the statue is the sister of Antigonus, the Mother of Heaven."

"That's not your goddess, oh, she is now."

Now? Klein was curious: "Then who is the 'original goddess of the night'?"

"Originally, the goddess of the night is the goddess of the night, but something happened this year. The vessel that descended from the gods like a bereaved dog turned over and became the owner." Medici's tone did not change much, and he did not show any inappropriate behavior because the other party was a god. With respect, Klein's mind pictured the person holding a cigarette in one hand with a frivolous and disapproving tone, "The current goddess of the night, I guess you are more familiar with another name, Mother of Heaven... Oh, are you not familiar with it either? That is the divine vessel of the Church of Night, the Hidden Angel '0-17'."

Klein found that his "Ancient Scholar" potion had not been touched. He heard it in confusion, but he vaguely understood something.

"You will have the opportunity to know these things later. After all, you have to go to the Eastern Continent. Secrets and history are buried there."

Medici did not dwell too much on the topic of the true and false goddess of the night. Considering Klein’s path and Antigonus, he selectively introduced some of the lost history of the Fourth Age:

"The Kingdom of Night believes in these two siblings. They are very interesting. They let living people live at the foot of the mountain. After death, they turn into marionettes and live on the top of the mountain. Antigonus built a marionette on the top of the mountain. City, I vaguely remember that this has something to do with a certain promotion ceremony in the high sequence."

Is it related to a certain promotion ceremony of a high-sequence fortune teller?

A marionette town... Antigonus was already in Sequence One when he fell asleep, so this marionette town is either a step into Sequence One, or an element for promotion to become a "Fool"... Klein quickly wrote down this information. Everything Medici said made the digestion progress of his ancient scholar's potion increase, and he could also obtain information about this life from it. He felt the warmth of home more and more.

After thinking for a moment, Medici touched his chin with Klein's body, and while recalling the information on the "Level 0 Sealed Artifacts" exchanged with other churches after taking over the church, he thought and said:

"In addition to Zaratul and Antigonus, the third 'Miracle Master' extraordinary characteristic we can get is combined with a characteristic of mysterious origin to become the Sealed Artifact '0-05'. This thing is also called 'Wish-making' The "Magic Lamp" has never been obtained by any church. It was discovered in Balam not long ago. It was collected by the local warlord as one of the palace artifacts. It has now been transported to Loen... There was once a true god who tried to destroy this item, so that The properties separated, each reunited, and the result was unsuccessful.”

"How is it? Isn't it incredible?"

Klein was indeed shocked: "The true god cannot destroy a level 0 sealed object? So is it..." Is it a special item created by dual pathways or even the position above the true god?

"Stop it! Stop thinking about it. Your kid's thinking is really too sharp. All you think about are issues that your sequence shouldn't worry about. As long as I remove the spiritual link and don't share my identity with you, You should die suddenly on the spot."

Medici chuckled twice, not sure if it was a joke or a compliment, but he quickly returned to the topic.

"At the same time, what's more interesting is that everyone who has come into contact with this 'wishing magic lamp' seems to be dead. Even George III, who holds this object, currently has failed the ritual due to various reasons and is trapped in the mausoleum and cannot be resurrected. .”

"In addition to that... the fourth and fifth 'Miracle Master' extraordinary characteristics exist respectively in the form of '0' level sealed objects in the former 'Eternal Sun' Church and the current 'God of Thunder and Truth' The church, codenamed '0-13', still belonged to us in the Third Age. You can tell when you hear the name - it's called 'The Last Feast'."

"This thing is just sitting in the warehouse. I have checked it. How should I put it, from the perspective of mystical connection, it contains a lot of bad, negative and depraved things, and it is too closely connected to the Lord, and the Lord is now... You know what I mean? You can use it, but it’s best not to.”

Klein nodded.

"In addition, the '0-32' on the other side of the octopus's head is a product of the 'War of the Four Emperors', which is called the 'Never-Ending Theater'."

Octopus head. Klein silently resisted the thought of complaining.

"The sixth 'Miracle Master' extraordinary characteristic may be in the land abandoned by the gods. I remember that the 'Dark Demonic Wolf' Kotal was quite active in the third era. The Lord was very powerful at that time, and he took the initiative to surrender and call himself His position is neutral, and he occasionally fulfills the wishes of some city-states he passes by, so the Lord turns a blind eye - Kotal completely lost his trace after the catastrophe, but according to the Holy Word's report, Dong There are many marionette cities in the darkness of the mainland... Haha."

Medici smiled inexplicably.

Klein heard the complexity and dissatisfaction in Medici's tone, but at the same time he noticed another thing.

——This "Miracle Master" Demon Wolf Kotal is also creating a secret puppet city!

Relying on his long-standing acumen, Klein vaguely realized that since the other party was Sequence 2, that meant that Marionette City was most likely the ceremony for Sequence 2 to be promoted to Sequence 1, and it was the subject of the ceremony.

As for the detailed requirements, you can look for them later.

Klein, who had so quickly found important clues to the next sequence of promotion rituals, was so excited that he couldn't help but start fantasizing about the "Fool's" ritual.

He listened very attentively to what Medici said, thought carefully for a moment and said:

"You are saying that when the number of 'Servants of Secrets' is full, there can only be three 'Servants of Secrets' and only six 'Miracle Masters'. And now, the only 'Servants of Secrets' in Sequence 1 are Zaratul and Antigo. The ancestors of the Nusi family don’t seem to be satisfied.”

Medici smiled slightly and said:

"Indeed, there should be three 'Secret Waiters'."

"But in the Second Age, when the earliest 'divineer' path to True God Ancient God Demon Wolf Fregra was still alive, the third 'Secret Attendant' extraordinary characteristic disappeared, and no one knew its whereabouts. , the 'Miracle Master' extraordinary characteristic that it corresponds to is also missing. Maybe it has been combined with it, and it is smart enough to find a concealed enough way to hide itself."

"So that's it..."

Klein was about to say something when he suddenly heard footsteps coming from behind the living room. Richard Ernst, who seemed to have finished handling something, strode over again and asked them with a smile:

"Are you done talking?"

Klein did not speak, and Richard said to Medici: "After we finish talking, you may need to go to the Southern Continent with me. I have told God that God plans to make specific adjustments based on your spirituality—— To put it simply, it is custom-made according to the spirit, which is the most suitable."

"Are you going to the Southern Continent again?"

Isn’t this sending it to the devil’s mouth? Klein and Medici's expressions twisted together.

"...It doesn't matter if you spend more money. How about you, the bound gods, come to Intis by yourself." Medici's tone was complicated and his expression was complicated. The thought of not wanting to see Edward Vaughn again came out at this moment. The mood was highly consistent with Klein's.

"This - I guess it won't work. We are all mentally ill, and you know our mental stability. I'm afraid the gods won't be able to bear it when they reach the Northern Continent." Richard shook his head regretfully, "Maybe you really have to come with me. , I don’t think you need to worry too much, I won’t…”

"……Hold on."

Richard paused suddenly, reached into his pocket and took out a small round mirror:

"Someone came to me to receive a prayer."

Klein almost lost his temper again.

The circular mirror lit up like a mobile phone screen, and figures gradually appeared, like an extraordinary video call.

But after seeing clearly the appearance of the person on the other side of the phone, Klein forced himself to maintain his facial expression.

…

Backlund, Queens, in the luxurious villa of Earl Hall's family,

After two days of chaos and a full week of enhanced protection, Audrey's life finally returned to some peace, which made her feel even more complicated and helpless about the assassination of George III.

"They're here again."

Audrey, wearing a pure black dress, walked out of her room silently, stood behind the railing on the second floor, and stared quietly below.

Because the thing happened too suddenly and the way it was performed was too shocking, although she had received certain reminders from "The World" Gehrman Sparrow, she still felt unrealistic and unreal at this time.

She seemed to be out of touch with reality and was watching a theatrical performance:

People from MI9 visited his home frequently in the past half month, symbolically asking about Earl Hall's transfer of large deposits and some collections and real estate to the National Bank of Intis.

My mother and I are not qualified to intervene in this kind of thing, because they usually never get involved in company and industry matters. At this moment, his father, Earl Hall, and his brother, Lord Hibbert, were standing below and arguing with MI9. They removed various receipts and official seals and contracts, proving that this was indeed just a business cooperation, and MI9 was in Violating personal rights and even slandering a count with a good reputation.

Audrey knew that this was just pressure from MI9. She believed that her father and brother, and even the people from MI9 themselves, knew this.

But this meaningless behavior continued for half a month.

"It seems like it's impossible for Hibbert to go to Intis smoothly."

"The earl's eldest son, the noble lord, can't sneak across the border. He can't stand it, but he can't get through the customs either."

"Under such circumstances, if my father still wants to bet on both sides of the Hall family and keep its foundation as before, then the last solution may be to let me take part of the family property to Intis on the grounds of engagement..."

She is very smart, or perhaps a daughter of a noble family should have such acumen. It is impossible for the family to raise you without any worries until you are an adult, without receiving any compensation at all. Audrey knows that she is almost 19 years old, which is why she has always been frowning recently.

Audrey watched for a while and then returned to her room. She could not participate in such a thing, and she was not qualified to participate.

Closing the door, she breathed a sigh of relief.

The biggest blow that followed was the sudden disappearance of Mr. Fool. The words "Don't pray, don't respond" were like a huge stone weighing on Audrey's heart, leaving her breathless. ——The almost god-like George III was stopped and suppressed. So what did Mr. Fool, who had obviously not yet recovered to the power of a god, pay? Audrey didn't dare to think about it.

But there are other things to do.

She just glanced at Susie, and the golden retriever immediately walked out of the room, closed the door and squatted outside.

Thanks to her part-time activities in the Southern Continent, talking to patients also gave her a brief break from family and political struggles.

Otherwise, after being confined at home for half a month and being forced to think about political matters every day, Audrey would have long been tempted to go out for some fresh air. It is impossible to stay at home as thoughtfully and well-behaved as now, and not even go to your own garden.

Audrey sat down familiarly, assumed a praying posture, and recited in a low voice in ancient Hermes:

"The burning fire will never be extinguished..."

After reciting Richard's honorable name in Hermetic, she reached out and touched the mirror. A luxurious mansion in the style of the Northern Continent appeared in the water ripples.

Audrey was about to say hello to Richard, when suddenly, her eyes turned to the back and noticed a familiar figure on the sofa.

Although the other party's clothes were different from those in the past, and his temperament was very different from usual, Audrey clearly saw Mr. "Richard Ernst" sitting on the sofa, and on the other side sat her acquaintance "The World" Hermann Sparr. Luo!

A little further away, there was "Dawn Dantès" sitting. His eyes were dull, his expression was dull, and he had no aura of life. Sitting motionless on the single sofa was a bit scary.

Audrey's eyes shifted back and forth between the two people, and she suddenly felt a sudden realization——

"Now is the identity handover scene of 'Dwayne Dantès'?"

"I was wondering why Mr. Dawn has always been a little sluggish these days. It turns out that it's not a person, but a doll..."

TBC

Klein: OK.
