In the cold and damp shipyard, two or three drops of water from unknown sources dripped from the ceiling from time to time. The turbid water droplets dropped to the ground and exploded, making a clear and crisp "tick-tock" sound regularly.
In front of the dock, Fisher held an unconscious demon attendant in one hand and threw them casually on the hull they had prepared before. Then he turned his head and pulled up the chain that blocked the dock, exposing it to the outside.
The sea reflects the sun in the sky.
Then he came back, pushed gently, and slowly sent the hull out of the ocean outside the shipyard, leaving them to fend for themselves.
The two of them were sent by the demons to deliver a message. In fact, the matter itself had nothing to do with them. Killing them or not didn't matter. Fisher just didn't want to give the hungry souls a chance to complete the knowledge in the manual and let them go.
Give up.
He immediately walked towards the entrance of the shipyard, looking for the book Sir Emhart who had been lost to an unknown place by Heller.
Simply, this guy would moan once or twice even if he was severely injured. Following his drake voice, Fisher soon found Sir Shu, who was also unconscious, in front of a sealed window.
"Wake up... wake up."
Fisher reached out and gently fanned the cover of his book with one eye closed, but he still didn't wake up, so he had no choice but to pinch the ridge of his book and shake it.
"Pa bang bang..."
Don't tell me, this is really effective. Shaking and shaking, Emhardt opened his one eye in confusion, and murmured in a daze,
"Bye...Bearmon?"
"she left."
"Go...go?!"
When he thought of that shocking guy, Emhardt, who was still unconscious just now, immediately flapped the pages of the book and flew up. Fisher also simply let go of his hand holding his book, and listened to him continue to ask Fei.
Sherdau,
"What just happened to you?! What did she come to do? Is she going to take you away?"
"No, I just said something related to the previous matter."
"You...you must never believe her. Don't believe a word she says. She must be lying to you!"
Fisher looked at Emhardt who was floating again. After confirming that he had not been damaged by Heller, he put on the robe of the prayer tower again and prepared to go out and return to the prayer tower.
But before he could move, Emhard had already flown in front of him, blocking his way.
"Hey! Fisher! Did you hear what I said?! Everything Baimon said was fart. You absolutely cannot believe a word she says!"
"Ok, I know."
"You...you...you...don't comfort me verbally. In fact, all you think in your heart is 'Ah, my wife is worried about me', 'Ah, my wife is so good to me', this kind of stupid thing
By the way, Baimon is not one of those demi-human little ladies you know. She is a real devil! A devil! A devil of fidelity! A devil even more devilish than a devil!
"
Emhard stood on Fisher's shoulder and anxiously persuaded him,
"That guy is definitely going to eat you up and wipe you clean without spitting out your bones!"
"Well, I understand."
"Your mother!"
Emhardt didn't know what Fisher was really thinking at this moment, because his face was calm and no specific thoughts could be seen.
Emhart was just worried that he would be deceived by that bad woman. In his eyes, Baimon and the other ladies Fisher knew were by no means on the same level or rank. A slight mistake would make him fall into the abyss.
...
So, what is Fisher thinking about now?
Is Heller telling the truth?
According to logic, everything Heller said is reasonable: because Tsuki endorsed her in advance, she would take special care of her when she traveled back from the future for the first time. What's more, she actually saw him
After a while, she became extraordinarily friendly towards him, and even found out that she didn't feel angry at all when she found out that he was being bound.
Moreover, Tsukiya did say that he is very special. This may be reflected in the fact that he has read more than one supplementary manual without incident, it may be reflected in the weird singing voices he encountered when entering the mythical realm, and it may be reflected in the
He can jump into the ocean of chaos without being polluted by the corresponding pollution.
Perhaps, it was precisely because of his specialness in chaos that Tsuki said that he was the key to solving the prophecy of annihilation, and that he had the idea of using chaos to solve the prophecy of annihilation that might be caused by chaos.
Heller didn't want to let herself do this. She objected to her continued use of chaos. After all, it was an extremely dangerous concept. A little carelessness would cause serious consequences like those who transferred.
The logic was perfect, and Fisher thought it was reasonable for her to think this way, but in terms of details, Fisher still felt that something was wrong.
Even though Tsuki at that time wanted to guide himself into the chaotic mythical realm and further contact with chaos, he also told Heller about the matter and hoped that she would help, but Fisher really couldn't imagine what the reason was for letting him.
Heller, who had no interest in the future, agreed to help Tsuki.
Judging from the fact that Heller owned Tsuki's mirror, the connection between her and Tsuki was inevitable. However, Fisher always felt that Heller was still hiding something about the reason and how to reach a consensus.
There is another problem: Renee's mark was on Fisher's body at that time. He was 100% sure that the mark was not detonated by himself, but by Heller. In order to send him back to the present, he also happened to have someone.
Deviation.
Fisher didn't know the specific nature of Renee's mark, and he also felt that it might be because he used it to intimidate Mr. Peach when he was in the Tree Continent, which caused the power of the mark to change and teleport him back four and a half years later.
But is it really such a coincidence?
It just so happened that I came back four and a half years later, when the demons were running rampant in Nali's army, and I happened to be back next to the factory where Nali produced cardinals...
Even if Heller had Tsuki's endorsement, how could she trigger the chaotic mark left by Renee at the true god level?
Of course, there is also a possibility that Tsuki may have already come into contact with the essence of chaos in order to further understand the prophecy of annihilation and come up with a solution to it.
After all, Heller said, Tsuki told her the nature of chaos and related knowledge. Perhaps it was because of this knowledge that she was able to activate the mark on her waist...
But what about the Mother Goddess at that time?
The moon representing the Mother Goddess was born when he left. Could the birth of this "epitaph writer" who is the end of the prophecy of destruction have anything to do with Tsuki or Heller?
The more he thought about it, the more headache Fisher got.
He got too little information, and for some reason, he always felt that he could detect an indescribable information gap like a ravine in front of Heller, which could not be bridged no matter what.
Perhaps the key to finding the answer is "Renee". She is the successor of the Mother Goddess, and she also has the level of a true god. Maybe she will know the secret, but since the lark used for communication in the wallet disappeared, she has also
I don't know where she went or how to contact her.
She might still be waiting for him to come back in the Sea of Storms, or she might have returned to the spirit world. In short...
At the same time, even if Heller concealed what she said, her actions and purpose were real.
She used a certain method to release two demon species, and the target was none other than Rafael.
As for why the two eighteenth-level warriors did not directly kill Rafael, who was only fourteenth-level warriors, Fisher believed that the reason may lie in "timing."
As Heller said, she is waiting for the time when the "prophecy of destruction" will officially begin. At that time, she will kill the "open" key and then leave with herself.
No matter when the prophecy of doom comes, Fisher cannot let Rafael die, this is what he must do.
Moreover, Fisher was also very concerned about who Heller was referring to as the "fish that slipped through the net."
This is the first time that she, who is usually casual and playful, has had such a grudge, and it seems that her current situation is related to this person who slipped through the net. Of course he will be curious, and of course, he will have to find her after this matter is resolved.
.
But since the overall goal is clear, then...
After comforting Emhard, who was extremely emotional every time he met Baimon, he was even more frightened when he faced Baimon this time. Fisher didn't want to argue with him, so he let him rest and relax.
Withdrawing from Heller's doubts, Fisher's peripheral vision caught a glimpse of some minced flesh and blood left behind by the two demon servants who had left the shipyard. These remnants reminded him.
"Agares..."
Looking at this familiar power, Fisher suddenly changed his mind.
Tonight, he might want to study Erwind's Life Completion Manual first.
He always felt that something had happened between Erwind and the devil, and maybe he could find the key to dealing with the devil from it?
Fisher walked out of the door wearing the cloak of the Wishing Tower, and his back quickly disappeared at the end of the road outside the shipyard.
...
...
The sky was getting darker, and just as Rafael said before, facing the Green Dragon Palace and the Nali human coalition forces that were about to move south, the entire Red Dragon Palace began to move at high speed.
When Fisher returned to the Wishing Tower, he didn't see Rafael or Jasmine. The one who entertained him was the pitiful human wife dragon Myr, who also brought Rafael and Jasmine.
traces of jasmine,
"Master Rafael is checking the armaments in the military camp. I heard that there will be drills and inspections tomorrow morning. Master Jasmine is checking the food and distributing the responsibilities and arrangements after the war... In short, Fisher will settle down tonight.
For a moment, Sir Rafael asked me to take care of you temporarily."
"Okay, thank you. Please tell them that the devil's matter has been resolved. By the way..."
At this time, Fisher asked Mir to tell Rafael and the others about the two demon attendants and the silver party they used Agares' blessing to properly handle the funeral.
He was not disappointed not to see Rafael and Jasmine Fisher. It was definitely not because he had just "fooled around" from Heller. The most important thing was that he had to read the supplementary manual, and something might happen in the process.
What, it's best not to be disturbed.
Fisher had a brief dinner, and then returned to the room with Emhardt, who was still in shock and kept talking to him about the dangers of "Baimon".
"I've been thinking about it all afternoon. You said there's no possibility, I mean it's possible, that Baimen came to you for the forbidden knowledge?"
Fisher glanced at him and followed his words and said,
"Don't worry about that."
"what why?"
"Because she doesn't want me to read these things, and I'm going in the opposite direction to what she suggested. I'm going to read these things tonight, and you know this process will be dangerous. I need you to keep an eye on me and stop me.
If someone bothers me, can I please ask you, Emhart?"
Emhard opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment, then flew up and said to Fisher,
"Okay...Okay, I don't know why, but I always feel at ease as long as you and Baimon are facing each other. Who calls me the great Emhart? I will help you look around, you...
You have to be careful yourself."
"good."
Emhard flew up and stood on the window sill in the room where the ventilation exposed the night view of Longting outside. As if he was standing guard, he looked at Fischer for a while and then looked outside, for fear that someone would disturb Fischer.
Sher.
Fisher also took a deep breath and took out the two completion manuals from his arms. Needless to say, in Emhard's eyes, Fisher's action of taking out the completion manuals was completely taking out air.
Fisher first glanced at the Soul Completion Manual, which he was all too familiar with, and then looked at another simple booklet intently.
He had never read this manual he took from Erwind, and he had never thought of reading it before, but now, he had to open it to find out.
Using the oil lamp next to him, he slowly opened the cover of the Life Completion Manual.
What caught his eye was a line of cursive fonts that Fisher had never seen before, but by completing the manual, Fisher understood its meaning.
"I would like to dedicate this last chapter to my wife."
"Lance Albert"
As soon as he opened the "Life Completion Manual", Fisher noticed that it had a different format from the Soul Completion Manual.
I still remember the Soul Completion Manual that I read earlier. It describes the various things he encountered after he came to this world from the perspective of Caleb Uzi. It is very similar to a diary collection. There is no specific format.
Both the pen and the content are extremely casual. In addition to the content of the soul, it also writes many insignificant things about the ancient Fama Baharon court period, which made Fisher suddenly get close to the man named "Caleb.
Uzi” middle-aged man.
But the "Life Completion Manual" in front of me is completely different.
After turning over the title page written in curly script, there is a table of contents. But what is unbelievable is that this life completion manual, which looks as thick as a soul completion manual, only has four chapters. And the most expensive one is that
To Scheer's surprise, the genre of the Life Completion Manual is "a collection of poems."
In other words, this first-generation life minister named "Lance Albert" recorded all the forbidden knowledge in four long poems.
In addition, there is a postscript, but Fisher did not lose his mind and turned to the end.
The "poem collection" in front of me is not just a random extracurricular reading borrowed from the Royal Library of Nali, but a collection of knowledge that can be called a "disaster".
Let's start with the table of contents. Here you can directly see the titles of the four poems: the first poem is called "Hiker", the second poem is called "Left Hand", the third poem is called "Daughter", and the fourth poem is called "
"Ultimate Treasure".
Fisher didn't know the specific content of these poems, so he just turned back the pages little by little and soon entered the content of the first long poem.
To Fisher's surprise, the content of this poem was actually not as long as Fisher imagined. It was only about seven or eight hundred words, and like many poems, it had repeated content. What really occupied the content was
Densely packed but exceptionally neat, the beautiful handwriting of Juan appears next to each word.
Fisher recognized those words, and did not need the Completion Manual to help him translate them. They were in Swali language, and seemed to be the analysis and interpretation of the verses left by a certain owner of the Life Completion Manual.
The content of the poem is only three or four pages, but the analysis is hundreds of pages long. No wonder from the outside, this Life Completion Manual is as thick as Caleb Utz’s travel notes.
The first poem was too long, so Fisher briefly read the content and found that the poem recorded a very interesting story.
It is said that an experienced mountaineer is trying to climb all the mountains in the world. He climbs day after day, and finally completes this feat one day. But the day when the goal is achieved, he is not satisfied, but seems to
If you choose the wrong target, you will regret it.
He was very confused, so he traveled thousands of miles to find a well-known sage and asked him about this problem.
The sage heard his question, looked him up and down, then shook his head and said,
"The reason why you are not satisfied is because there is still a mountain in the world that you have not climbed to the top."
"There are such mountains? It's simply unheard of. I have traveled through every inch of the world, and even the mountains hidden deep in the ocean have not escaped my eyes. But now you tell me
Is there a mountain I have never climbed? Please tell me its location."
"But climbing this mountain is very dangerous."
"I have to do this."
"Okay, please go back. After you get some sleep, you will know where the mountain is."
So, the hiker returned home with hesitation, lying on the bed and waiting for the night to come.
Soon, night came and he fell into a deep sleep.
That is, in his sleep, he encountered a majestic mountain that he had never expected. The mountain seemed to be thousands of feet tall, with layers upon layers, reaching straight into the sky, filling his eyes with an indescribable magnificence.
Just when he sees this mountain, the climber confirms that this is the mountain he wants to climb throughout his life.
He wants to climb this mountain!
The climber happily began to climb the mountain in his sleep.
The first mountain is no different from the mountain it climbs, only more steep and more spectacular. It has five protruding, dirty-looking peaks, six deep mountain streams that swoop down from the sky, and four natural mountains.
The miraculous solitary cliff has a silver waterfall like a ribbon hanging from the universe.
The process was very difficult, but he still relied on his rich experience to reach the top of the mountain range. He panted and looked back, only to find that there were two huge mountains behind, one higher than the other. He didn't know how.
Where to.
The climber did not want to admit defeat and wanted to continue climbing, but at this moment, human facial features grew on a huge rock next to him, and he suddenly opened his mouth,
"Sir, sir! I am a stone living here. No one else has come here for a long time. People like you are so rare that I almost forgot that I am a stone."
"I'm going to continue climbing. Goodbye."
"You want to keep climbing?"
"Yes."
"Listen to my advice, this is the limit that humans can climb. The two mountains in front are one higher and more dangerous than the other. You can't climb it by yourself. Human beings live at the bottom of this mountain.
That’s enough, why go up?”
"No, I have to keep climbing up."
"Well, I have to wish you good luck. I heard that angels and God live on the last mountain. If possible, please meet them for me."
"OK."
So the climber continued to climb up.
There was lightning and thunder on the second peak. Because he went too high and too deep, the thunder from a few feet away began to beat his bones, turning his fragile bones into powder, making him unable to stand, so he had to kneel on his knees.
Climbing. At first he was very uncomfortable, but he soon found the rhythm, so he continued climbing.
Soon, a heavy raindrop fell from the sky. The moment the raindrops touched him, all his recognizable appearance and flesh were corroded, dissolved, and flowed away along the water on the ground. He lost everything, including his skin.
and internal organs, the memories that can be recognized and exist are still struggling to climb.
Until he passed through the cliff as sharp as a knife blade, passed through the jungle as hot as hell, and finally came to the third peak.
There is a closed door in front of the third mountain peak. An angel under the throne of God guards here. When he saw the climbers climbing here, he asked,
"what are you?"
"I'm a mountaineer."
"I'm asking what species you are, I can't recognize you."
"I am human."
"It's really rare that a human being comes from the bottom of the mountain?"
"Come from the bottom of the mountain."
"Where to go?"
"Go to the top of the mountain."
"Okay, but if you want me to let you pass here, I need you to give me a treasure."
"What kind of treasure?"
"It is brighter than the jewel in the king's crown, longer than the sun and moon, more immeasurably valuable than the ocean and the earth, but more precious than any other treasure in existence."
"I don't understand what you mean, Lord Angel."
"What I want is the ultimate treasure."
"..."
Since the climber asked the sage, the matter spread quickly. The next morning, many people who were very curious about whether the climber had found the last mountain came to visit him.
.
But coincidentally, they all saw the silent climber lying quietly on the bed.
His appearance was ferocious, and his body was tired and thin, as if he had just experienced an unprecedentedly difficult climb. Judging from the final result, he seemed to have failed.
No one knows where the rumored last mountain is, except for the body of the climber, whose room and bed were searched...
But, nothing was found.
...
...
"Fisher! Fisher!"
In the small room, Fisher, who was staring at the poem, began to have ferocious eyes all over his body. From the bloody eyeballs that kept shaking, gurgling blood was constantly pouring out.
Soon it won't just be those eyes, but Fisher's seven orifices...
Emhard flew over in panic, watching him staring at nothing on the table - he couldn't see the completion manual that Fisher was looking at at this time, and of course he didn't know what he had just seen.
What, it's just that his appearance looks very scary.
"Cluck...cluck..."
At this moment, what was unprecedented was not that the soul in Fisher's body was distorted, but that his originally honest and kind body began to become restless.
Maybe not restless?
Emhardt didn't know either, but at this moment he seemed to feel that Fisher's body was particularly tired, and those ferocious changes in appearance were just symptoms of this fatigue.
It seemed as if he was climbing very strenuously, consuming all his body's energy.
But what was even more eye-catching was that his hands and feet began to dissolve with eyeballs mixed in, as if they were about to completely melt on the table and the ground.
"No, Fisher!"
Emhard watched anxiously as Fisher dissolved in front of him little by little, flying around in a panic, and muttering to himself,
"Quickly, think of a solution, great Sir Shu, are you going to watch 'Fischer' turn into 'Fischer-chan!?'"
