Gray mist wraps around the thick stone pillars of the same color. The dome replaced by crimson stars emits the only light here, illuminating the mottled ancient bronze table below.
After the interface tricked Emlyn into going home alone, Klein himself got on the carriage and returned to Minsk No. 17.
In the past few days, the White couple's visit to the commission, which already contained unexpected elements, and the inconsistency discovered after entering the Church of the Mother Earth again, forced his strong curiosity and fear of "coincidences" to become more and more obvious. Although it was still
Although I was worried that I would become more and more subconscious in relying on the "secret" knowledge and power, I still climbed onto the gray fog without hesitation.
At the bottom of the long table, "Mystery", whose black robe was fluttering in the wind, still looked peaceful and indifferent, showing no trace of the weakness he had shown during his mental conversation with Klein a few days ago.
After scanning up and down and finding nothing unusual, Klein finally felt relieved and went straight to the point and mentioned his recent experiences.
"I haven't paid much attention to your actions recently because of my state," "Mystery" raised his hand slightly, interrupting Klein's statement, "But you said that you have recently come into contact with the bishop of the Mother Goddess of the Earth?
"
"Yes." Seeing "Secret" proactively asking, Klein became much calmer.
"I helped a bishop of the Earth Mother get rid of the dark side personality in his heart, but this is not the point. I just wondered why the bishop tried to cultivate a vampire into a believer of the Earth Mother, and I think the Harvest Church can attract people.
The reason why Emlyn—that is, the vampire keeps going—must be more than just psychological suggestion, there should be something else that can really attract him."
Klein hesitated for a moment before telling him about the violation he found in the church.
"And the red moon is almost impossible to see from the Harvest Church."
From a mystical sense, in rituals and required preparations, in order to highlight a certain symbol, we usually try our best to shield things related to this symbol in nature to prevent the ritual from pointing to things derived from the symbol.
attracted.
After listening to Klein's doubts, the "secret" posture of his casual posture suppressed the strangely raised smile at the corner of his mouth, and his calm tone had a hint of teasing in it than before.
"Actually, it's very simple. The 'cultivator' and the 'medicine' are adjacent paths. They combine the extraordinary characteristics of the adjacent paths. This is something that every true god, even an angel, and the king of angels will do."
Are "cultivator" and "pharmacist" adjacent paths?
Although Klein was a little surprised, when he remembered that he had obtained the "Medicine Master" formula from Bishop Utravsky, he felt a feeling that it should be like this.
But soon, based on past attempts, he couldn't help but frown slightly and continued to ask:
"But they are also adjacent paths. The three gods are the most hostile to the true Creator, and those three... former kings of angels are also hostile to each other among the seven righteous gods."
"If it is just to close the adjacent pathways, shouldn't the more convenient method be to directly take away the characteristics that the vampires have mastered?"
These realistic words made sense, and even made the fingers of "Secret" who was leisurely tapping on the table freeze for a moment.
Yes, yes, Zhou Mingrui, your body is not as immature as you said...
The familiar and disgusting sneer echoed in his ears. "Secret" suppressed the smile at the corner of his mouth and ignored the words of a certain spring water commander.
She thought for a moment and answered Klein's question.
"You are right, but in many cases, this simplest and crudest method is not necessarily the most realistic method."
"You should have roughly learned about the distribution of some races in the Second Age from the Sun, and you also know that elves and dragons have always been mortal enemies."
"And I was once an elf, and I am now a pan-faith of elves, but this does not prevent me from still having some dragon believers."
"If according to your idea, in order to better strengthen my own power, should I kill Loholid in the third era and let the devout elf believers be promoted to demigods?"
This... fact was before his eyes. The train of thought that Klein originally thought was roughly correct was interrupted. Then he couldn't help but look at the approximate location of the crimson star representing Roholid to express his sympathy.
.
"So this is the reason to avoid the red moon in church?"
After all, compared to the "mystery" who has occupied the divine position for many years, he must be the inexperienced one, so Klein did not get too entangled in the Earth Mother Goddess's attitude towards the vampires, but turned to other issues.
And since "Secret" has only answered its own question so far, it means that the series of events related to Emlyn White should not be a malicious "coincidence".
"No, this is actually because of other reasons, some more complicated reasons."
"Secret" hesitated for a while, and finally decided to hide some secrets that were not suitable for Sequence Seven to know.
But she didn't know whether it was because she considered the unpredictable situation in Backlund, or because she was influenced by someone who had been sitting on the spring water, unable to get out, and could only keep making sharp comments, that she still suggested some things.
“‘Medicine Master’ is not an adjacent path to ‘Sleepless One’, and the belief in the moon has always been a bit complicated.”
Beliefs about the moon... Klein roughly went through the two pathways of "dark night" and the gods related to the moon in his mind, but found that he didn't find any ideas.
The only one who found any connection was the long-lost ancient god Lilith.
But Lilith had already fallen in the Second Age, and the Earth Mother Goddess, the Goddess and the God of War were all gods that only appeared in the Fourth Age, so there shouldn't be much connection, not to mention that there was a high probability of a Sequence One in the Vampire Race at that time.
, Blood Moon Queen.
The train of thought in his mind reached a dead end, and Klein finally gave up on the investigation and said goodbye to the "mystery", hoping to return to reality and fall asleep.
"etc."
Klein, whose spirituality was gradually spreading throughout his body, suddenly stopped moving and looked at the "mystery" sitting upright opposite him, and couldn't help but become nervous.
"Secret", who raised the corners of his mouth slightly, tried his best to maintain a calm voice, but it was still difficult to conceal the smile.
"Tomorrow is the full moon."
She stared at Klein, who had not yet reacted, and the curve of the corner of her mouth became more obvious.
"You'd better put that key here, after all, the door's mumbling is not pleasant."
After nodding heavily, Klein completely disappeared above the gray fog, and "Secret" finally smiled a big smile, facing the empty gray fog, not just mocking anyone.
