Although a thousand unmatched puzzle pieces seemed very difficult, the moment Klein dragged the first puzzle piece, he found that the game was far simpler than he imagined.
There seems to be some kind of special power on these puzzle pieces. When he drags the puzzle pieces, the diviner's spiritual intuition will be stimulated, and he can almost instinctively find the location where the puzzle pieces should be placed.
"No, that's not right, it's not simple, it's because I am a fortune teller!"
Klein knows very well that because of the existence above the gray fog, his spiritual intuition as a diviner is far more accurate than that of ordinary diviners. This perception is indispensable for the reason why he can complete this jigsaw puzzle so easily.
.
The illusory puzzle pieces quickly arrived at their rightful place, and a complex, dreamy, and somewhat twisted magic circle gradually emerged as the puzzle pieces were completed. When the last piece of the puzzle arrived at the place where it was supposed to be, the magic circle suddenly burst out.
A faint blue brilliance.
The light spread like a tide, and Klein didn't even have time to react before he was swallowed up by the tide.
…
With a blur in front of his eyes, Klein slowly woke up, and then found himself in a dark room with all kinds of sundries surrounding it. It looked like an ordinary cellar.
But in the center of the room, there stood a shelf similar to the music stand on the conductor's podium of a symphony orchestra. On it, there was an ancient book with a very chronological feel.
"This should be the mission prompt?" Klein shook his head slightly and walked towards the book. With his rich experience in switching between spiritual bodies and physical bodies, he was convinced that he was existing in the physical form at this time.
, it is speculated that the previous magic circle should be a teleportation spell——
Of course, it could also be a special world like Grossel's Travels.
However, considering that Senior Penridax only has Sequence Four to Sequence Three, he should not be able to create items of that level.
He took out a gold coin from his pocket with a pupilless eye and a twisted thread on one side, and an earth pattern on the other side, and let it fly up and down on his fingertips.
This is a "token" created by Mr. Demon for the members of the Tarot Society. It has a certain symbolic meaning and can be used as a carrier of the Fool's power. After obtaining this gold coin, Klein often leverages the power of the gray mist to bless it.
If you use it for divination, you can avoid interference to a great extent.
The beautiful sound of the gold coin vibrating in the air made Klein feel happy. When the coin fell into his hand again, the upward-facing planet pattern denied the divination statement "This book is dangerous."
"Very good." Klein flipped his fingers, and the gold coins disappeared in his palm as if by magic. He reached out and picked up the chronological book.
"Running group record..."
Looking at the Loen text on the cover bound by brass and animal skin, Klein frowned slightly. Thanks to Russell, running groups also exist in this world (in the original book, Ian once invited Moon to join the running group, and the big boss is
A vampire...), and as a strong keyboard player, Klein certainly understands what running a team is.
But just because he knew it, he had a bad feeling in his heart——
"Should I use dice to decide my actions next?"
Klein thought so, opened the "Running Group Records", and then saw a line of text——
"You are a vampire hunter disguised as a private detective. Not long ago, you heard rumors that a girl was missing in the town. Your keen intuition told you that this was probably related to vampires. After some exploration,
You discovered an old castle in the forest outside the town."
"Through ritual magic, you successfully allowed the castle's servants to send you into the castle as cargo, but you know very well that it is impossible to assassinate a vampire by staying in the cellar."
"After basic divination, you found that this castle is watched by a mysterious being. If you recite the honorary name rashly, I am afraid it will attract the attention of vampires. This means that you cannot use ritual magic in this castle."
…
"The Vampire Castle and the like are really quite ancient RPG settings... Well, the gaze of a great being is probably bragging, but the reason for mentioning this is probably to imply that you cannot pray to the gods for help during the trial.
I don’t know if it’s just for the purity of the trial, or because the treasure at the end of the trial hides something that cannot be known by the great beings, or simply because this trial space may be affected by the greatness.
Damaged by the gaze of existence..."
Klein looked at these words and was somewhat thankful that he had taken out the magical items he might need last night. He did not intend to break the rules of the trial. Of course, if his life was endangered, that would be another matter.
But as he came up with this idea, text suddenly appeared again on the blank page of the running group record——
"Of course, you don't risk your life casually. In your hand, there is a powerful spell. As long as you recite the activation spell (Leave), you can leave this castle instantly, but you also
Understand, if you use this spell, the vampire will undoubtedly become vigilant, and this hunt will fail as a result."
The text stopped abruptly here, but the blank parchment seemed to be suddenly soaked in ink, and a thumb-sized pattern was outlined, and in Klein's surprised eyes, it turned into a real and realistic symbol.
The charm fell off the parchment, and Klein deftly caught it in his hand.
"This talisman should be an escape prop... In other words, if you find that you can't win, you can use this talisman to escape, and then the challenge will be considered a failure? Is this so-called group record actually a game log?"
Klein took a deep breath. He had played the Castlevania series before, but as a faceless man, he seemed to have an easier way to infiltrate.
The problem now is that he has no idea what the "people" in this castle look like.
and……
"Only marionette masters and above can enter this trial. The seniors who entered here before were also faceless people. I'm afraid they have already been tested on transformation and other things."
Klein thought this, and took out the iron cigarette and the box cover from his arms. As the lid of the box opened, a figure suddenly appeared on his side. It was Admiral Blood wearing a dark red coat and an old three-cornered hat.
Senior.
However, the Blood Admiral at this time looked no different from when he was just captured. He was not embarrassed because he had to carry Klein all the way yesterday. This made Klein quite envious of the self-cleansing ability of the resentful soul.
"Go outside and check the situation."
Although direct instructions are not required to operate a marionette, Klein, who was trying to figure out the rules for playing the marionette master, still followed the rules of "performance", even if there was "no" audience at the time.
