Chapter 466 Leonard's IQ Curve

The moment he realized that the old man was still alive, Klein subconsciously took a step back, his body slightly arched and his left palm forward.

In the unspeakable silence, Klein tensed his nerves, like a cat that wanted to jump out at any moment.

But in his vigilant and aggressive state, the old man with a pale beard did not make any movement. He just moved his eyes slightly, closed his mouth half-closed, and said in an unclear voice:

"Finally another fortune teller is here."

"Again?" Klein frowned and thought, but then he remembered that there were still missing creatures from the ruins of the God War here, which might include a few Extraordinaries who were trying to find mermaids or who had been successfully promoted to the diviner path.

He saw that the other party had the intention to communicate. Although he had learned from the experience of the desperate lady Panatia, he still chose to hold on for the time being and said thoughtfully:

"Why do you say that?"

The old man with black eyes and white beard did not respond directly, but still asked in his deep and deep voice:

"Do you want to escape from here? I can tell you how."

Klein was not moved, but asked directly:

"Then why are you still here?"

The old man blew his head, let out two dry laughs from deep in his throat, and gave an answer that made the hairs stand on end:

"Because I'm already dead."

"..." Klein was very sure that the old man in front of him was not a spiritual being or a living corpse, but he didn't think the other party would make such a joke either.

The atmosphere once again reached freezing point. The old man could only slowly raise his head, glanced at Gehrman Sparrow's appearance and said:

"I used my special extraordinary ability to find the hole in the history and destiny of this world, cut out the image of myself, fixed it here, and maintained it until now. As for my body and my spirit, they have long been completely dead and completely dissipated."

"Historical projection?!" Klein said the name of this ability almost subconsciously. Although he didn't know what the effect of this ability was, the other party's description obviously conformed to the meaning of the name. Moreover, if this ability is really can separate a certain fragment of history, then the reason why Senior Panridax asked him to use this ability seems to be obvious.

"Oh? You know?" The old man's dark eyes turned slightly, and he nodded slightly unexpectedly, "Yes, it is indeed a historical projection, but the reason why I can still exist is because of the special history and destiny here. After you open the door, the history and destiny of this place will change, and the image I cut will disappear. When the time comes, you will see a jar of ashes. I hope you can help me sprinkle it into the capital of Intis. In the Serenzo River near Lille, that is my hometown, the place where I was born. Can you understand this place name? I don’t know how long it has been in the real world.”

"The Serenzuo River is near Intis? That should have been before Emperor Russell expanded Trier... and has been imprisoned for at least a hundred years?"

Although he was quite skeptical about the other party's rhetoric, Klein still responded:

"They still exist."

"Very good." The old man nodded as if there was phlegm in his throat.

Klein really wanted to ask the other party's name to confirm some of his guesses, but in order to avoid irritating the other party and to avoid long nights and nightmares, he chose to directly ask the other party how to leave.

The old man did not hide this, and quickly introduced the method of leaving...



While Xiao Ke was experiencing the secret room (town?) escape game prepared for him by the goddess sister, Chanis was already very busy behind the door of St. Samuel's Church.

Archbishop Backlund, St. Anthony, stood at the stairs connecting the first and second floors, watching several Nighthawk deacons busily going back and forth, many of them wearing red gloves.

The higher-ups are counting the anomalies behind the Chanis Gate, and other Nighthawks who are not qualified to enter are not having an easy time either.

The office, usually relaxed enough for playing cards, was now as solemn as a standing meeting. Even Leonard Mitchell, a guy who has always been very casual, rarely showed a serious look and sat in a serious and dignified manner. There.

This was the second time she had foreseen something targeting the items behind Chanis's door, so it was inevitable that she would think of the memory that led to Klein's "death".

This entanglement continued until the missing servant was discovered, and a name that made him unbelievable appeared in front of him——

"Gehrman Sparrow."



"Old man, what is going on?" After the "combat meeting", Leonard walked out of the office, and while making the move to transfer information to the Heart of Machines, the Punisher and MI9, he thought in his heart Ask the old man.

"What's going on?" Probably because he ate the souvenir given by the gentleman, the old man's condition got better and better, and he even made some unnecessary "knowingly asking questions" behavior.

Leonard was a little helpless towards such an old man, but he still said:

"Why did Klein sneak behind Chanis's door? Did Mr. Snow lie to me? Or has Klein been corrupted by the Fool and is standing on the opposite side of the goddess? And it just happened to be at this time! Soon, the captain will get married. Oh! Is he so impatient?"

"How do I know this kind of question?" Pales simply gave a universal answer, but Leonard's mood began to become a little unstable:

"Some things are not necessarily what you see, and even the most devout believers should not pry into some of the upper-level plans."

"How to say?"

"To put it simply, maybe the 'Fool' and the goddess have reached some kind of tacit understanding or deal, and the content of the deal is something behind Chanis' door. In this case, how do you think the deal should be completed?" Pales He seemed to realize that Leonard was becoming more and more brainless recently. He did not give a direct answer, but asked in a roundabout way.

"The transaction was directly carried out by... No, no, the Fool still belongs to a secret organization... So this theft is just a show? Klein is just the messenger responsible for taking away the letter?" Leonard thought of this, feeling depressed in his heart. It was as if I had been released in an instant, as if the whole world had become much clearer.

"I didn't say that. Maybe your former colleague is a thief? Or maybe he made a decision in private for some purpose without telling the Fool and the Goddess! You'd better ask yourself what the specific situation is. Just ask, you attended that party anyway, right?" There was a rare hint of bad humor in Pales' tone, but Leonard shook his head as if he didn't hear it at all:

"How could you ask such a thing at a party!"

Leonard's thinking is very clear. If the two parties have reached a tacit understanding, everything will be easy to explain, but if not, whether it is the Fool's conspiracy or Klein's betrayal, it will be a big hole for him to ask at the Tarot meeting.

Either he was slapped to death by the Fool, or Klein was slapped to death by the Fool, or both of them were slapped to death by the Fool.

But if he just pretends not to know, he won't be able to get over the hurdle in his heart.

After thinking for a moment, he suddenly took out the parchment and started writing a letter.

"Oh, are you looking for that guy?" Pales' tone was strange, but Leonard nodded and said:

"After all, he is the one holding the goddess's sacred emblem. As the scroller of the goddess, he should be trustworthy."
