"Even the rumored Antigonus family and the Ammon family are worse than us. We are second only to the 'mysterious' one I have only heard about in vague descriptions of family inheritance."
"In the glorious age of the Fourth Age, under the blessing of the great ancestors, we are the most noble existences except the three emperors, and the blood-related nobles of the 'Ten Thousand Gates' who are closest to the throne of the gods!"
"...Ancestor Bethel disappeared in the war that God himself fought..."
Abraham, the most powerful existence second only to the "God of Mystery"... Klein thoughtfully read the slightly exaggerated description in this notebook, tapping his fingers on the parts about curses on the following pages.
, feeling an inexplicable sense of familiarity, shook his head.
"I remember 'Mystery' once said that excluding Zaratul and Antigonus, who have basically lost their competitiveness in the 'Diviner' path, besides him, there are indeed people in charge of 'Thieves' and 'Apprentices'
The great beings of authority, Ammon and Bethel, the ancestor of Abraham’s family, are they the other two who also hold authority over time and space?”
Klein suddenly remembered some of the content he had browsed in the "Secret" notes and felt familiar.
Bethel Abraham, this seems to be the angel who was helped by "Mystery", and Amon seems to have appeared in some trivial records, and seems to be a junior in "Mystery".
Judging from this note, it seems that Bethel has fallen, and Amon, I have not heard about Him anywhere else until now...
Klein eagerly turned back a few pages, and saw that the owner of the note had written down all the recipes for "Apprentice" from Sequence Nine to Sequence Seven on the paper, and also carefully recorded that he was in the most spiritual state.
Xue Yue took the magic potion.
No wonder he died suddenly, let me tell you. Although the captain did scare me at that time, saying that swallowing the magic potion would be very risky for promotion, and there was even a chance of exploding to death the moment he took it, but I didn't see it either.
The unlucky guy who died tragically after passing Sequence Nine...
Klein glanced at the few words in his note about taking the potion under the light of the blood moon, and couldn't help but shake his head.
He finally remembered where that inexplicable feeling of familiarity came from.
Isn't this the full moon curse that almost tortured Miss "Magician" to death?
What is the difference between becoming an extraordinary person when the curse is at its strongest and rushing to be reincarnated?
However, thinking that he had heard murmurs such as "Honakis, Fregra" when he was promoted to Sequence Nine, Klein immediately stopped the impolite thoughts in his mind.
The deceased is the most important person, so be polite.
The shadow robes on his body shrank instantly. Klein quickly looked around to confirm that no other spiritual beings remained. He clenched his notebook with both hands. His entire spiritual body suddenly became pale. With his own specialness, he returned directly to the gray mist.
The effect brought by Mr. A's badge was immediately exposed. Klein took off his shadow robe and waved his left and right hands respectively. The "substitute" and Mr. Azik's copper whistle flew to the left side, waiting for him to bring them back when he returns to reality.
, and Mr. A’s badge flew back to the pile of debris behind the high-back chair, lying with other things.
He looked at the brown notes on the long bronze table, stroking his cheek with his palms, feeling a little melancholy.
This is already the third notebook I have obtained. The only way to obtain information is through notebooks. Are I some kind of investigator?
Sigh... Klein let out a long sigh and tapped the table lightly.
"The whereabouts of the extraordinary properties left by the owner of this notebook."
The thin fog slowly gathered, bit by bit covering Klein's vision, and he fell backwards.
In the spiritual world, he did not touch the cold back of the high-backed chair, but fell directly into the darkness behind. The entire scene quickly collapsed and reorganized into the basement of No. 32 Verdi Street.
In the color-distorted basement, Klein is suspended in the air like a ghost, looking down at the entire basement environment from a strange third-person perspective.
Did I view dream divination from this perspective before?
He scratched his head in confusion and looked to the side with some awareness. He saw a helpless "Secret" floating beside him at some point, with complicated eyes.
"I'll be honest. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can tell me directly instead of playing tricks on me all the time."
The usually aloof "Secret" is now like an older young man who has been silenced by his buddies.
He glanced at Klein, who looked confused, and explained impatiently:
"If I hadn't known that Will Asceptin didn't dare to play small tricks, I would have thought that he was planning to trick you to death. You have been so lucky recently. This method of obtaining information by looking directly at pollution through insights is definitely the only one in the world.
share."
"You mean, there are high-level beings involved behind this matter?"
"Um, the kind that's taller than you?"
"Secret" looked at the young man who was mixing potions in the basement. He didn't know what he was thinking. He was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses:
"No, it will just give you another bad memory, and it will also make me feel worse."
He gently pressed down his right hand, and the stopped time began to flow. The young man who was mixing the potion put down the "clear water" that had become a dreamy color, recorded the last few words in his notes, and then with enthusiasm,
Drink all the liquid in the measuring cup.
In an instant, even through the barrier of gray fog, even if this was just an illusion created by dream divination, Klein heard a piercing scream very realistically, as if countless sharp steel nails were pierced into his scalp, bit by bit.
Separate the flesh and skin from his head.
"Ah..." His eyes narrowed to a slit, and in his blurred vision, the unlucky descendant of the Abraham family was rolling on the ground in pain, as if he was looking directly at something extremely terrifying.
He screamed and screamed, and his hands, with stars and moonlight shining under his skin, scratched his cheeks, digging out traces of blood.
"no no no......"
The illusory scream became clearer and clearer, and Klein vaguely heard a few words.
But before he could endure the pain to hear the rest of the part, the body of the young man on the ground who was twisted in pain exploded in an instant, and exploded into pieces of flesh. The bright red flesh and blood quickly dyed into a faint blue. Finally, under the power of the Law of Extraordinary Characteristics,
Pulled by the cohesion force, every piece of flesh and blood containing extraordinary power gathered inexorably towards the center, shining with a strange brilliance. An ancient brass key clanged to the ground, and the faint brilliance flashed for a few times, and then the last bit of extraordinary power was pulled down.
The appearance also disappeared.
"Is this the danger you're talking about?"
Klein wiped away the non-existent sweat and looked in the direction of the "Secret", only to find that his half-body was holding a ball of crimson and light blue light in his hand. He shook his hand violently, and the ball disappeared.
The power supported by the source was instantly shattered and dissolved into the gray mist that was everywhere in the dream.
"How about it? Although I have isolated most of it, the impact on you from the rest should still not be easy."
"Secret" looked at the key that fell on the floor and tilted his head slightly.
Klein rubbed his temples, calmed down for a while, and considered:
"Not so good. The one who cursed Abraham's family should be weaker than the Eternal Burning Sun."
Weaker than Eternal Sun?
"Secret", who was in a rare emotional state, suddenly turned his head. Even though he was the strongest expression management master in the world, his brows could not help but beat.
"How did you come to this conclusion... No, how did you come to this conclusion?"
He has lived for so many years, and the last time he heard such words was from Amon.
It turns out that He told me that I was very similar to His youngest son, so maybe He wasn’t taking advantage of me?
The distant memory suddenly became clear, and "Secret" doubted for a moment how different he was from the original Zhou Mingrui, so that he was so uncomfortable facing Zhou Mingrui who now combined some of "Klein's" memories.
"I just judged based on the backlash I got from divination..."
Klein's voice became softer and softer as he spoke. It's not like he couldn't read other people's expressions and eyes.
"Actually, Bethel has been exiled a long time ago. He is now crucified outside the world. It is different from the pure white one who moved the Kingdom of God to the star realm but is still within the overall framework of the world.
.”
Klein's interest was suddenly piqued as he listened to "Mysterious"'s addition.
"Beyond the world, what is outside this world, the starry sky?"
"Secret" shook his head complicatedly, then nodded lightly.
"It's a starry sky, but not the one you remember."
He breathed a sigh of relief slowly, and the entire dream changed accordingly. The picture sped up like a frame, and time seemed to have been taken away. In a blink of an eye, it came to the time when the thief visited the house.
Looking at the thief who was looking at the key in his hand with a puzzled expression, "Secret" whispered:
"If you are still in the Church of Night and have become a more important mid-sequence, you should be told that you must be careful about everything related to the underground and the starry sky, and must handle it with the highest standards."
Underground and starry sky?
Does this refer to some kind of symbol, or does it simply refer to the stars below the earth's surface and in the sky?
Seemingly guessing the reason for Klein's confusion, "Mysterious" continued to explain:
"The underground and the starry sky are the two most powerful sources of pollution in this world. They are pollution that surpasses the true God."
"But if there is pollution underground, wouldn't it be a big risk if there are such large-scale mineral mining activities in several countries in the northern continent?"
Thanks to the various modern entertainment works he had seen before, Klein easily imagined several threats from the stars, among which he believed that the most likely one was a threat similar to the Cthulhu Mythos.
But when it came to the underground, it was difficult for him to imagine what kind of pollution it would look like.
"The technological level of this era is not yet up to the level of being able to touch pollution. They have to complete at least three industrial revolutions and reach the level of our hometown before they can use purely physical methods to touch the pollution in the ground."
In other words, this pollution is almost buried deep underground?
"So what about the pollution in the starry sky? How do they exist?" Klein rubbed his chin, and the dream scene in front of him had followed the thief's activities to a hospital.
The thief was unlucky to encounter a young man with blood-red eyes and was pinned to the ground.
"You can understand the combination of the dark forest and the Cthulhu Myth. You cannot expose yourself and know the greatness. At the same time, these polluted entities are far more arrogant than the Trisolarans in the story."
When these words came out of Mystery's mouth, Klein felt a sense of dissonance.
Ever since he first met his so-called half-body, Klein has seen in him an overwhelming confidence. Even when talking about those true gods, he did not show any fear, and even claimed that he was far above them.
For Him to say this, it seems that the pollution of the starry sky is really dangerous...
Klein nodded in understanding, and suddenly an impulse surged in his heart, and he cautiously asked "Secret":
"Then what is the attitude of the true gods towards this pollution?"
"Them?" "Secret" smiled disdainfully, his black eyes full of ridicule, "Most of them are just like turtles, waiting for the chance to bite the carrion like rats in the sewer.
Just as they did to their Creator."
"These things that have no bottom line of moral integrity have not yet had the real awareness to fight back, let alone the courage to make sacrifices. If each of them had the qualities of a saint, we would have been invincible long ago."
His tone was slightly excited, and he even waved his right hand violently, as if he was trying to sweep away the mice he looked down upon.
Judging from the "secret" answer alone, there should be a deeper reason behind the secret of the three gods dismembering the creator, and he is talking about most gods, which should not include his allies, such as the goddess and the true creator.
...
Klein suddenly whispered, "What about you? What is your attitude towards these pollutions? Are you as afraid as other true gods?"
As soon as he said these words, Klein felt a little regretful.
He looked tentatively at "Mystery", and saw that his half-body's eyes were filled with confusion, as if he was really stopped by this question, and there was silence for a while.
"I..." He hesitantly broke the silence. After a brief psychological struggle, for some unknown reason, he wanted to tell the truth, "I had not considered what fear was before the plan started."
"I didn't even think about anything like that when I approached Russell."
"But after you woke up." "Secret" glanced at Klein, and then quickly moved away, as if he felt guilty, "After you woke up, I started to be afraid. I was afraid of losing everything I have now, and I was afraid of really becoming
..."
He bit his lip in confusion, and his already pale cheeks lost some color.
"I'm just asking." Klein waved his hand hurriedly, then pointed at the changing scenes in the dream, pointing at the red-eyed young man who was thrown into the basement by an overly tall priest, and changed the subject, "What is going on?
, the last sealed artifact left behind by the 'apprentice' ended up in the hands of church personnel?"
After the quaint key was put into the stone door similar to Chanis Gate, "Secret" adjusted his breathing and returned to his usual calmness, feeling a lot more relaxed.
"Yes, this is where the key last appeared."
The picture zoomed out, and a building with a style different from the three popular churches in Loen was revealed, and the Holy Emblem of the Mother Earth was clearly visible.
"I hope you can retrieve this key after you are promoted. I have a hunch that this key will become your key when facing danger in the future."
