Chapter 38 Hope forged by Lies

After a whole morning, Klein finally determined his opponent and some general information about the opponent.

Backlund Jean Martin was born into a noble family of the Republic of Intis. He took up the post of Ambassador of the Republic of Intis to Backlund three years ago. He was commended by Marshal Soult and was called "one of the younger generation".

A capable diplomat", there are still five years left before the end of his term.

In general, he is a high-ranking person with family background support and even the favor of a marshal...

Having obtained the information he wanted, Klein no longer stayed, but went directly to a nearby restaurant to eat, hoping to gain some valuable rest time for himself before the tarot meeting in the afternoon.

He took out his library card from his pocket with his left hand in advance, preparing to bring back a book about the Church of Steam. He was walking out the door, and when he casually looked back, he found that the man he was talking to just now, Louis Evans, was still there.

Standing in another area, flipping through old newspapers.

As if aware of the gaze, Evans looked up, looked into Klein's deep ice-blue eyes, nodded slightly, and said hello.

Klein was startled, responded in return, and then imperceptibly quickened his pace.

What is the situation? Is he so sensitive? Is he an extraordinary person?

Klein, who has experienced too many "coincidences" and is naturally wary of this aspect, walked forward quickly, his mind racing with thoughts.

In order to play the role of a qualified Jianhai County person, Klein did read a lot of news and folk magazines about Jianhai County. Among them, he heard about the Evans family, which is famous for its transportation industry.

As a family member, the other party is likely to have been exposed to the extraordinary field, just like Miss "Justice" at the beginning. And as a male, he has been truly exposed to this knowledge and is supported by the family, making it easier to become an extraordinary person.

.

Anyway, let's wait and see. After all, it's just a chance encounter. It's impossible for someone to be behind every coincidence... Klein handed over the books he wanted to borrow with one hand and the library card with the other, and looked at the work behind the counter.

The staff stamped the document, quickly took the books and documents, and left the public library.

He planned to find a nearby restaurant to eat, and then take the steam subway back to the left bank of Backlund Bridge.

But he failed to notice that Louis Evans, the gentleman played by Dern, was standing on the second floor, looking down at him from a height.

He had put on a certain disguise, and his face and hands gave people a different feeling. His actual age was definitely not the thirty or forty years shown on his face... Dunn rubbed the newspaper in his hand and narrowed his eyes slightly.

............

At 2:50 in the afternoon, he returned to the apartment and had a good sleep. Then, Klein, who was woken up by the alarm clock, climbed out of bed, put on the human skin mask on his pillow, and after confirming that he had disguised himself,

After sitting in the bathroom of the apartment, he walked four steps backwards in a familiar manner and climbed above the gray mist.

He looked at the notes on the table in front of him and the "glass" containing the dragon, feeling a little surprised.

He looked up and looked around, and found that he was indeed at the top of the long bronze table, in the "Fool's" position.

I thought I would go directly to the "World" seat... Klein recalled his previous experiences and found that he had never really sat directly at the "World" seat.

Perhaps this is why He does not agree to directly help me play the role of "The Fool" and only accepts occasional "power training"?

Klein thought about it, then skillfully took off the citrine pendant on his left wrist, took out a pen and paper, and decided to take advantage of the time to divine the things that he cared about recently.

"Am I still being hunted by Ambassador Backlund or his people?"

After reading it silently seven times, the exquisite citrine pendant slowly began to rotate clockwise, confirming this conjecture.

Klein exhaled nonchalantly. This was something he had expected and would not be alarmed by it.

He raised his hand and wrote down a new divination sentence.

"Will my search for bodyguards be successful tonight?"

This time, the citrine pendant first stopped for a moment, and then slowly rotated to the right. It only turned a few times and then stopped for unknown reasons.

There is a certain probability of success, but there are some unpredictable factors involved, so it is not certain? Klein rubbed his chin and frowned slightly.

Although as a qualified "divineer", he knows very well that divination is not omnipotent, and many times, the results of divination usually need to be interpreted, are hazy, and do not directly reveal the truth.

Klein sighed, then took out the pocket watch that appeared along with his formal attire. He saw that there were still three minutes left on the pocket watch's hand, so he sent a message to Derrick "The Sun" first.

Have I been sighing more and more frequently recently? He knocked on the table tentatively and asked aloud:

"Are you going to be the 'Fool' later?"

Without warning, Klein's vision felt blurry, and he found that he had been sitting on top of the "world" at some point, with a completely black cloak covering his body.

He looked up and saw "Secret" looking down at him indifferently and nodding.

Tsk... Klein lowered his head and saw the hands of the pocket watch in place, so he spread his spirituality and touched the hands that symbolized "the sun", "the hanging man", "justice", "judgment" and "magician" at the same time.

The crimson stars pulled them into the gray mist.

The familiar gray mist and hazy figures came into view. Audrey, who had successfully been promoted to Sequence Eight, was about to stand up and say hello, but found that there were several unfamiliar figures beside her and at the bottom of the long bronze table.

New member? She turned her eyes and found that Mr. "The Hanged Man" opposite was also a little surprised. She immediately reacted and stood up, half-lifting her skirt, and said in a normal cheerful greeting:

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool~"

Because she didn't know the code names of the other members, Audrey didn't say hello to the other two members she was already familiar with in order to treat them equally.

He had partially recovered. After Klein left yesterday, he met with the "Secret" who was the incarnation of Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun. At this time, he had returned to his usual peaceful state. He nodded slightly, glanced with pure black eyes, and noticed "

"Miss Justice" changed her etheric body and said with a smile:

"Good afternoon, Miss Mind Reader."

Then he glanced at the other members and said in a calm voice:

"These are the new members who just joined."

He raised his right hand slightly and started introducing "Magician".

"This is Miss Magician."

"This is Miss Judgment."

"Justice" Audrey turned her head and looked around her, looking at a tall and a short figure, one lazy and one serious, with a beautiful and attractive curve at the corner of her mouth.

These should be Xio and Forsi. It seems that the people he recommended to Mr. Fool have been confirmed!

She cheered a little in her heart, and then returned her attention to Mr. Fool's introduction to the last new member.

Following the introduction, his finger reached the lower end opposite to himself, pointing to Klein, who was not adjacent to any other member.

"This is my favored one, 'the world'."

Beloved!

Several people who were shocked by this information immediately turned to the direction of "the world", either obviously or restrainedly, and looked at the strong man wearing a cloak and a hood.

It turns out that Mr. World is a favored one... When he first boarded the gray fog, he found that he seemed to have disturbed the conversation between "World" and Mr. "Fool". Xiu Yi was startled, and then hurriedly talked to the Buddha beside him.

Ersi looked at each other and found that his friend's eyes were also full of shock.

No matter which church you are in, the favored person is synonymous with those who enjoy divine grace, and almost all of them are demigods or "potential stocks" who are about to become demigods.

The remaining three old members who met Klein for the "first time" were equally shocked.

After all, they had only heard of this word in Mr. Fool's words and had never seen it in reality.

Especially "The Hanged Man" Alger, who has taken over Edmund's mission, he pays more attention to this favored person "The World" and silently includes him as his target.

The Beloved... Seeing the shock expressed by the other members' body movements and changes in their blurry faces, Klein used the cover of his hood to slightly twitch the corners of his mouth. For the sake of his own personality, he looked around indifferently and said to everyone

The members returned the gaze.

Seeing that everyone's reaction was a little fierce, "Secret" who had succeeded in his scheme gently knocked on the long table in front of him to regain his attention.

Hey, there is something next to Mr. "Fool"... The observant Miss "Justice" just turned her head and pointed at the glass-like object that was just covered by Mr. "Fool"'s majestic momentum.

She raised her hand like a primary school student, and after seeing Mr. Fool nodding, she asked softly:

"Mr. Fool, what kind of reward do I need to pay to know what the glass-like object next to you is?"

"Of course, if it's something I can't know, I won't insist on it."

A very polite child... "Secret" who had a good impression of "Justice" knocked on the tabletop of the long bronze table, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and his voice was calm and mixed with a little joy.

"If you just want to know what this item is, it doesn't cost anything."

"Because the value hidden behind this item is what you should find a way to obtain."

"Secret" leaned on the backrest of a high-backed stone chair with his legs crossed. The formal attire he wore to fit the character of "The Fool" was now wearing a casual and lazy look.

"This is a specimen made from an ancient dragon that remained from the Second Age and was sealed by me. It has a close connection with the King of Dragons - Angelweed."

He paused for a moment, then stared at Audrey with his pure black eyes, and said in a deep voice:

"This also means that through this item, I can obtain all the potion recipes and rituals of the 'audience' path."

"Spectator" access to all potion recipes and rituals!

"Justice" Audrey's beautiful green eyes expanded slightly, filled with shock and sudden joy. Although her strict tutor would not allow her to make drastic actions, if she were not in the presence of Mr. Fool at this time,

With all the party members watching, you might actually stand up and dance.

Compared with "Judgment", "Magician" and "Sun" who had joy written on their faces and were shocked by the big news and lost their reaction, "The Hanged Man" Alger was equally surprised, but still restrained.

of one's own performance.

He knew very well that Mr. Fool once said that "sun", "sailor", "reader", "secret prayer" and "audience" can be interchanged in high sequences, and now he only needs to satisfy His Highness Edmund's requirements.

Requirements, becoming a Sequence Five is not a problem.

Moreover, the sealed extraordinary people are no different from sealed objects, that is, extraordinary characteristics that have not been restored.

He saw it. He restrained his trembling desire and stared at the piece of "glass" next to Mr. Fool. He saw the hope of becoming an angel!
