In the mountainous environment in the northwest of East Chester County, the weather is not too hot. At this time, some small nobles have begun to prepare to go to Backlund to participate in the social season in the second half of the year.
The animals that lost sight of the hunter began to rejoice that they had survived another year. The idle servants also began to carry out their normal duties of guarding the manor and taking care of the farmland according to the nature of their occupations, as in previous years, while looking for
Some jobs where you can make extra money in your free time.
"It should be this tower." After Klein got off the train at Ston Railway Station, he drove all the way and finally arrived at his destination half a day later. At this time, he looked like he had just crawled out of the ashes.
Compared with the beggars who came out, the completeness of their clothes can only be mentioned.
However, there is nothing that can be done about it. Although cities such as Backlund and Tingen have already reached a considerable level of industrialization, when Klein tried to cross East Chester County, he finally realized that land transportation in this era was far less advanced.
Convenience at sea.
After all, with the exception of a few industrialized cities, most of the estates and lands scattered across this vast land are the estates and lands of the nobles. They will naturally travel by their own carriages, and even the small number of free people will travel more or less.
There are donkey carts, ox carts, etc., and it is basically wishful thinking to expect that something like a "long-distance carriage" will be born in this environment.
In order to reach this tower, Klein forced himself to run all the way from Ston on his legs. Even in terms of straight-line distance, it was nearly two hundred kilometers (the actual location of East Chester County is probably in Newfoundland, North America).
Labrador Province (I measured the straight-line distance using Baidu distance measurement), even though his Sequence 5 physique can run at the speed of a steam train, this trip was really tiring for him.
Looking at the half-collapsed ancient tower, Klein hesitated for a moment, but still did not choose to call Mr. Snow directly. Instead, he gently tapped the substitute earrings disguised as sleeve studs on his sleeve, summoning the sun substitute.
With the help of the intersection of spirituality, Klein's field of vision overlapped with that of the avatar, and a simple and elegant door appeared in front of the half-collapsed ancient tower. The door looked illusory and real, with a galloping white horse on it, and behind the white horse
Under his feet, there is an "8" shaped ring belt.
Ordinary people, including Miss Audrey, would regard this ring as a symbol that refers to a path, but Klein noticed that it seemed to represent a mathematical concept before time travel - the Möbius strip.
"Does this heraldry have any special meaning?" Klein tried to use his mystical knowledge to interpret it, but he quickly gave up because he realized that this senior Penridax had nothing to do with the mysticism of this world.
It's not a single path.
Based on Miss Justice's previous personal experiments, this door should be safe enough, but out of caution, Klein still tossed a coin and performed a simple divination.
As the non-dangerous divination results were displayed in front of his eyes, Klein finally made up his mind and controlled the sun substitute to stretch out his arm.
Following a creaking sound that was inconsistent with the illusory door, Klein immediately took steps.
As he walked through the door that seemed to be real and illusory, a picture of illusion and reality appeared in front of Klein. Although he had long known that Miss Justice had been here, because he had not asked for specific information, he was still confused by the scene in front of him.
Quite curious.
"I remember that Miss Justice seemed to regard the sewers in Mr. Devil's house as a maze? So should we go to the sewers now?" Klein thought, began to search in the tower, and soon found the one with many illusory books.
study.
The study room is not big. Compared with the captain's cabin of Vice Admiral Edwina of Iceberg, the short bookshelf and the dozen or so books on it can even be described as shabby. However, Klein's eyes were attracted by that
The name of the book attracted me.
"The Secret of the Gods"
"Core Principles of Acting Method"
"Directory of Mysterious Organizations"
"An Examination of the Spirits of the Fourth Age"
"The War of the Four Emperors and the Church"
"Beware the Audience"
"Instruction (Part 1)"
…
"These books..." Looking at the books that looked like randomly bound notes, Klein stretched out his hand, but he passed through it without any doubt.
"No, these books are just as illusory and cannot be grasped even by a substitute... Well, by the way, didn't Mr. Devil say that the fortune teller sequence is needed to open the treasure? Maybe these books also require the ability of the fortune teller sequence?"
Klein thought for a moment, then pinched the second knuckle of his index finger twice with his thumb, and expanded his vision of the spiritual thread. Sure enough, he saw illusory threads extending from these books.
"Sure enough!"
Klein tried to pull the spiritual thread of the "Catalog of Mysterious Organizations". With a feeling like controlling a marionette, the book was slowly pulled out. At the same time, Klein could clearly feel
Yes, you can read this book through the spiritual thread.
"Are these things also part of the treasure?" Klein controlled the spiritual thread to open the cover, revealing the opening introduction and table of contents. After casually glancing at it, Klein's eyes suddenly froze, because he was
In the directories of these organizations, I saw a name——
"Redemption Rose."
"Senior Panredax knows about the Rose of Redemption? But that's right. After all, he even knows the information about the King of Angels. There seems to be no problem knowing this." Klein muttered in his heart, but couldn't wait to open the leaves and skip those that he
He knew the name of the mysterious organization and turned directly to the part about Redemption Rose. Then, what appeared in front of him was a large section of blackened content.
The names, long or short, but all blacked out, made Klein realize that this organization might not be as simple as the "King of the Eight Angels". What surprised him the most was a comment about this organization.
——
"The predecessor of the Aurora Society, most of the well-known gods and hidden beings in the contemporary era were once members of this organization."
"The vast majority..." As he chewed on these seemingly ordinary words, Klein felt as if his heart was being tightly grasped by a force.
He took a deep breath, closed the book, and turned his attention to "Book of Grants (Part 1)", a notebook that looked like made-up words.
But as the book was opened, it was written in Rune language, but it showed a temperament that was incompatible with the mysterious system of this world, even if it used a lot of "ritual magic", "divinity", and "sequence"
" and other proper nouns, but Klein still saw an extraordinary power system that was completely different from the Extraordinary system.
However, after reading the first and second volumes, Klein was a little disappointed, because this system called "Enlightenment" is completely based on the power of "gods", although it is not impossible for him to use the power above the gray fog.
It can be achieved by using space and Poseidon's scepter, but the embarrassing thing is - he is not that spiritual.
If you just develop a few followers, it would be more efficient to make spells directly.
"But if I had known that there was such a system, I could have let Benson and Melissa take this path, so that they would not have to face the risk of losing control..."
Klein murmured in his heart, but then gave up the idea. After all, it was not appropriate to let Benson and Melissa, who were believers of the goddess, pray for power to an evil god they had never heard of.
Closing the book, Klein looked at the remaining books on the bookshelf. Just when he was about to look at them one by one, a voice suddenly came from the desk beside him——
"I thought you were tricked by Miss Justice into taking risks in the sewers!"
