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

741

Klein took a deep breath and walked to the city gate without looking back.

No matter how bad your mood is, you still have to do what you need to do, and you still have to work hard to save people.

If Amon wanted to torture him rather than anger him, he would not parasitize the entire city. At most, he would engage in some half-truths and half-false scams to confuse his judgment and try to get Klein to kill several people. An innocent man, destroy his faith.

Klein could think of Amon's methods of torturing him, and he could also guess what would happen next... But even if he had made enough mental preparations, he still felt that his shoulders had become so heavy that he could hardly move forward. leg.

He didn't know if he could afford the lives of these dead people.

That’s all, it’s up to people to plan things, and it’s up to Heaven to make things happen.

Not to mention people from Moon City and Silver City, even if I were to stay here, there would be nothing I could do about it. What I can do now is probably to pray that the fate of "becoming Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun" will have some effect, so that Don't die if you can't save anyone.

"The high priest is waiting for you in the city."

As he approached, the Moon City resident closest to Klein raised his head with a friendly smile on his face. He seemed to want to raise his hand to do something, but was immediately suppressed:

"Please follow me."

Klein quietly turned on his spiritual vision and saw that the spiritual threads of the people around him were floating naturally in the air. The layered spiritual threads inside Moon City that looked like water plants showed no trace of being controlled by others. It seems that although Amon has obtained part of the "divineer" ability through Source Castle, it has not been given to his other clones. In other words, it cannot be shared directly. Corresponding means must be available.

"If there was an angel-level Amon here, he would definitely have attacked me long ago and would not have tricked me into the city, unless he wanted to see my desperate expression... Well, I am not Amon, so I can't guarantee that he will It’s not that perverted, it’s better to be careful.”

"Even if there is, as long as he doesn't take action, I can assume that the highest combat power Amon in Moon City is Sequence 3, but there may be more than one."

Amon is completely caught in a trap. Although he doesn't want to admit it, no matter what situation it is, it is very difficult... No, for me now, or any ordinary "ancient scholar", it is actually a ten-point death. ?

"Where is the high priest?"

Klein's face remained unmoved, but he was muttering in his heart.

He himself is a person who prefers to complain in his heart, and now he needs to use the behavior of complaining to relieve some of his inner pressure.

The Moon City resident closest to him quickly said:

"The high priest is currently in the high tower in the city, and our ceremony dedicated to the 'Fool' and the 'All-Knowing and Almighty Lord' is being prepared. Your Excellency, God's Envoy, if you are looking for the high priest, we will go and inform you immediately."

Tower? There is also a round tower in Silver City. Is this an architectural style from ancient times, or is it for some other reason... Klein's history expertise kicked in, and after thinking for a second, he nodded expressionlessly:

"There is no need to inform the high priest."

"Just take me directly into the city."

Go for a walk around the city, look at the layout of the buildings in the city, and plan an escape route... Speaking of which, I haven't seen the layout and facilities of Silver City with my own eyes, it's all considered a secret. Both cities are not too big. Although Little "Sun" drew a rough layout for me, I have almost forgotten it now. Well, if I can solve the matter in Moon City alive, I will use dream divination. Way to think of it...

"OK."

The Moon City resident said excitedly. He took the initiative to lead Gehrman Sparrow. He did not have any weird expressions or movements, and all his reactions were very normal. There was no sign of being parasitized at all: "Please follow I come."

The other people who greeted the divine envoy also started to move around. Klein didn't say anything. He slowed down and followed behind with the dim animal skin lantern in his hand. He slowly entered the building that was already standing in the darkness. An ancient city thousands of years old.

When passing through the several-meter-thick city walls and fortifications, Klein thought of what he had seen along the way and couldn't help but ask:

"In the original darkness, is the probability of the city being attacked high?"

The young resident walking in front of him immediately replied: "There have been several attacks in history, but I have never seen them."

A companion next to him immediately picked up the conversation and said with a smile: "It's a good thing we haven't seen it before, otherwise we might not be alive now! Children born now are even more blessed. They can see the sun when they open their eyes and have safe food." Mushrooms..." He paused, turned his head, looked at Klein with clear eyes, and answered the question he just asked, "Your Excellency, God Envoy, in fact, the probability of the entire city being attacked in the dark is not high. Lights and candles can prevent the dangerous pure darkness from approaching, but at the same time, they also make the city a huge, immovable target..."

"In addition, although most exploration teams have the technology to hide aura and eliminate traces, accidents will still happen. It is inevitable that some monsters with enough intelligence or tracking power will follow them close to the city... every time It’s all a disaster!”

Monsters have no fear of pure darkness. They live in darkness and will only try to extinguish the lights.

The extinguishing of the light is naturally a devastating blow to the city residents who were once immersed in darkness.

"I heard that there have been incidents in history where monsters turned into humans and sneaked in." Another person added, "It seems to have caused huge disasters, so we now add related monsters to the general textbooks. introduction."

"And that giant wolf, it's too scary." Some people were still frightened, "Fortunately, it didn't follow us back to Moon City!"

Monsters disguised as humans, treacherous monsters, ghosts in human skin?

Klein did not participate in their chat. He only asked a few questions from time to time and listened to their conversation like a story.

I don't know if it's his own psychological effect, but Klein always feels that these people's conversations are too smooth. After the first person finishes speaking, the next person will quickly pick up the conversation, as if they are a group of actors who have arranged the script, and even He had never "interrupted others' speeches"... Klein gave up thinking. These small details could not lead to any conclusions at all, but Amon probably just wanted to use these small details to consume his energy.

While chatting, they entered the city.

The sun has set, and torches and lanterns are lit from house to house, illuminating most of the city as bright as day.

The streets are very clean. Judging from the expressions of other people, it seems that such cleanliness is not an everyday phenomenon, but that it was specially cleaned before the festival.

The main road is paved with stones of different sizes, regardless of whether it is a small road or a dirt road. You can also step on some unknown small weeds and stones while walking on it. This kind of touch is something that Klein has not seen for a long time.

Brightly colored animal skins, as well as beasts' teeth and polished bones, were hung among the surrounding old and heavy stone houses. They are illuminated by lanterns or torches, revealing a rough aesthetic unique to the mainland, and the ancient atmosphere blows in your face.

Klein admired these animal teeth and bones that were polished into various shapes, and felt a little sad while marveling.

If you can take them out, be sure to buy some cloth for them and let them wear normal clothes. he thinks.

People coming and going all have smiles on their faces, and the few children and teenagers are also talking and laughing in groups, full of expectations for the upcoming festival - before the glory of "The Fool" arrives, there are people in Moon City. And the only festival is the "Sun Festival" to worship the sun god. It is also the only happy moment in a hard and stressful year. Now, people have another "Fool's Festival" to celebrate.

People here live a precarious life, struggling in the long dark night with no future in sight. Thousands of years have passed, and they still spend every day in fear as remnants of ancient times. The only thing that slightly enlivened this stagnant atmosphere was the ceremony to worship the gods. Both adults and children were looking forward to this long-lost celebration and the arrival of happiness.

Klein was infected by such emotions, and his cold expression softened slightly.

"Your Majesty the Envoy of God, everyone is looking forward to the festival." A person turned his head and looked at Klein expectantly, but his tone was a little sad, "This is probably our last festival, we will leave soon. Here, away from home, right?”

Klein had given up judging whether this was a hint or whether it was Amon. He said with a mentality of soldiers coming to cover up the water and the earth:

“This is what the Lord and most people want.”

After speaking, he didn't give others a chance to continue asking questions, and said directly: "I want to see this city by myself, and I don't need you to follow me."

The others were stunned for a moment: "No problem."

Klein immediately turned around, left the group of people, and walked towards other parts of the city. After the initial surprise and appreciation, Klein quickly discovered the problem with Moon City. The city is too devoid of color - there are no real ribbons or paint, resulting in a lack of identification between houses, and even the decorative pendants and hides are basically the same. In addition, Moon City is also considered a fortress city, with many alleys extending in all directions. If you don’t live here for a long time, you will definitely get lost quickly after coming here.

There were no flying insects or birds in the Land Abandoned by God, and it was not convenient for Klein to transform into a few marionettes to help him observe the terrain, so he had to go alone.

In fact, there is no point in looking for an escape route. Amon can directly steal my idea of ​​"escape" and freeze me in place... Although he thought so, Klein still quickly walked around the Moon City a few times and remembered it. Approximate route.

There are probably more than 10,000 people in this city, and now almost everyone has walked out. It is indeed crowded, but it is not overcrowded.

After drawing a more detailed route map in his mind, Klein began to move towards the square in the center of the city. While passing through a place that seemed to be a health clinic, a middle-aged man happened to walk out of the house. Prepare to lock the door and leave.

He was holding a magnifying glass-like object in his hand. At first glance, Klein looked like a monocle and was almost shocked.

The middle-aged man turned around and was startled when he saw Klein, who was dressed completely different from the Moon City people, and then said:

"Are you, Your Majesty the Envoy of God?"

After seeing Klein nod, he looked around doubtfully: "This direction... I'm going to the square now. If you also want to attend the festival, can I go with you?"

Do you think I'm lost? Klein wasn't sure if this was Amon's new trick, but he didn't care anymore, so he took a step aside as if to please.

"Thanks."

The middle-aged man thanked him politely. He was slightly mutated and looked a little weird, but he was basically a normal person. After he and Klein walked a few steps together, he showed a look that he was hesitating to speak, and then suppressed it. After repeating it several times, he finally asked:

"Your Majesty the Divine Envoy, I would like to ask you something about the 'healing ritual'. Is that okay?"

Klein almost immediately began to observe his surroundings, but there was no one on the road they were walking on, and no one was looking at him. But just as he was observing his surroundings, the middle-aged man could no longer hold back and whispered:

"Your Majesty the Envoy of God, I'm very sorry."

"I am a healer in Moon City, and I once had the honor of doing physical examinations for the first batch of 'cured' hunting team members - I will never forget that miraculous healing technique, the great 'Fool' complete correction It removes the wrong parts of our bodies, purifies all the tumors and defects, and even makes them full of vitality, able to regenerate severed limbs, and even the souls are purified!"

"Incredible, this is undoubtedly divine grace!"

"but……"

There was a strange look of confusion on his face, and his tone of voice became more cautious:

"...will the subsequent treatment be performed by an angel or saint under the throne of God?"

This... regardless of whether he is Amon or not, he actually took the initiative to bring up this topic just to send him information! Send a solution!

Klein raised his eyebrows, suddenly discovering a new continent and a new way to modify the pointing: "Keep talking."

After receiving the approval of the divine messenger, the middle-aged doctor relaxed a little: "I also checked the bodies of people who participated in the treatment ceremony later, and made some surprising discoveries... This is completely different from the first treatment. If the divine grace of the 'Fool' turns us into normal people and cures our 'disease' from the root, then the subsequent treatment is like... an excision surgery, God healed our diseased parts, And someone on behalf of me removed the diseased part - the simplest example is that I have never seen the regeneration of a severed limb."

Having said this, the middle-aged doctor glanced at Klein secretly:

"...before you come."

Well... Amon does not have a "life stick" and cannot treat diseases in a way that focuses on vitality. And he himself does this behavior to seize the direction of "The Fool" and does not really care about the life and death of these Moon City residents. This kind of treatment The method was within my expectation...

Klein nodded gently and said solemnly:

"Yes."

"The follow-up treatment will be taken care of by an angel under the seat of The Fool. He himself does not have the power to heal. He can only temporarily relieve your illness in this specious way."

Although this was his first time arranging Amon, Klein could already say this without blushing or heart beating.

The middle-aged doctor showed a confused expression. It was normal for a great being on the same level as the Lord to be served by angels, so he was not surprised. But this angel's behavior seemed to be a kind of fraud, but he couldn't say it out loud, so he had to force a smile and said:

"...Thank you, Your Highness, for relieving people's pain. Indeed, it is helpful for subsequent treatment..."

Klein coughed and replied seriously:

"So I came here with a purpose, which is to help you truly get rid of your illness according to the will of the Lord."

"I will treat you in the name of God at the ceremony. Real healing, remember, this is the salvation promised by the Lord."

The middle-aged doctor blinked his eyes and felt quite relaxed. Not only did the divine messenger tell him the truth without getting angry or angry, but he also promised to provide collective healing for people at the ceremony later. He was so moved that he immediately thanked him:

"Praise be to the merciful 'Fool'! Thank you also, noble envoy of God."

"This is what I should do."

While they were talking, they had already walked out of the path with few pedestrians and began to approach the square where the crowd gathered. There was not much time left to talk, so Klein took the opportunity to ask again: "Are you the only one who thinks this is weird?"

The middle-aged doctor did not hide any information: "I am the only 'physician' in Moon City. I have not found an apprentice yet, so I am the only one who noticed the difference in several treatments. I don't know whether I should tell the high priest about this. So I didn't report it... because this method is indeed treatment... However, the only thing I find strange is that people who have been treated always show some strange behaviors, such as liking monocles and subtle changes in personality. , and their behavior is highly consistent..."

Klein's heart skipped a beat and he quickly said:

"Don't worry, this is under the spiritual influence of that angel."

"Haha, because only that angel is responsible for this matter, everyone will behave similarly. It will be fine after a while."

"So that's it."

The middle-aged doctor did not doubt his presence, accepted this explanation, and felt relieved.

After approaching the crowd, they tacitly agreed not to chat or bring up any topic about treatment. The middle-aged doctor saw his friend in the crowd and quickly said goodbye to Klein and left.

Immediately afterwards, Klein felt many vague gazes falling on him. He frowned at the right time and looked a little distressed, giving some psychological relief to the Amon clones who wanted to see his joke. of satisfaction.

At this moment, the figure of the High Priest of Nim suddenly appeared on the high platform in the distance, and the bustling crowd fell silent instantly.

"Fellow compatriots."

The high priest's voice is rich and deep, with a soothing magic power, which is a distinctive feature of the "Sleepless One" path.

His gaze swept through the crowd, both to appease the crowd and to find the target. When he met Klein's eyes, the high priest showed an obvious smile and looked quite happy.

Klein nodded towards him quietly.

"My fellow citizens, three months ago, our city was favored by a new god."

"The Lord we have believed in for thousands of years made an agreement with this god, and He will redeem us and save us on behalf of the Lord. Therefore, we received the help of the god's messengers, obtained healthy food and water, and were able to bathe in the sun. .”

"From now on, we no longer have to worry about the dangerous darkness, nor do we have to worry about eating monster meat to accumulate toxins and cause mutations in our children."

And the price for obtaining these is faith... Such an idea rose in everyone's mind at the same time.

It's a clearly priced gift, and it's not too expensive.

After saying this, the High Priest of Nim looked around and saw that no one spoke to express dissatisfaction, and felt a lot more at ease in his heart - the preaching and propaganda during this period were all effective. In the face of kindness, even the most devout believers , but also to sigh helplessly.

He followed the scheduled process and said:

"Then, let's go to..."

"Please wait a moment."

The voice belonging to Gehrman Sparrow abruptly interrupted the high priest's speech and also interrupted the silent prayers in the hearts of the people in Moon City.

Almost as soon as the sound fell, everyone's eyes suddenly turned towards the direction of the incident, even the high priest was stunned.

The stern-faced Gehrman Sparrow did not become nervous due to the attention of everyone. He calmly looked at the people in front of him. Under his momentum, the Moon City residents standing in front of him involuntarily moved to the left and right. Make way for him to lead to the high platform.

Klein didn’t dare to let the entire city pray to “The Fool”—what if Amon’s true form was suddenly attracted to him?

Everyone is looking at him - Amon is also looking at him, with a mentality of watching a good show. His heart was racing now, but he was still calm. If it weren't for the control of the "Joker" potion, he believed that his heartbeat would beat like a drum and his face would turn red.

Gehrman Sparrow walked towards the high platform step by step with an expressionless face. His aura seemed to be asking for guilt, which made the high priest a little nervous.

Fortunately, after he stood on the high platform, he did not launch an attack, but calmly turned to the east, facing the people of Moon City, and grabbed a cross from the air and a cane that looked like a log.

"Our Lord, the great 'Fool', has promised you salvation. In addition to going to the outside world, you also need to redeem yourself."

Klein allowed himself to fully enter the role, and he also knew that what he was doing was indeed important. In a solemn and solemn manner, he raised the cross in his hand until it was level with his head, and said:

“Therefore it is the Lord who saves you.”

He poured his spirituality into it, and the golden cross in his hand suddenly shone brightly, as if the sun was rising from the eastern horizon again.

In just one moment, Klein captured dozens of people who were incompatible with those around him.

In the light, some people looked solemn, some looked pious, and they were either surprised, afraid, or showing a look of reminiscence.

TBC

——————

Amon looked at the light and forgot what he wanted to do for a moment.

Or maybe he just wanted to see the light of the sun again.
