More than 5,000 nautical miles southeast of Toscat Island, this sea area has far exceeded the navigation range of normal ships and has almost reached the edge of the Sunia Sea. Although the Sunia Sea is not filled with fog all year round like the Misty Sea,
But now we have entered late autumn, and there will be heavy fog that is not too thin from time to time every morning.
But the fog that permeates this sea area is different. Unlike the fog, they seem to be controlled by someone. The dividing line is extremely obvious and moves towards the south at a slow speed.
A closed illusory door with mysterious symbols on it opened silently in mid-air, and four figures walked out, standing out of thin air as if there was a layer of transparent glass under their feet.
The only woman was wearing a mask, hood, and cloak, so her true appearance could not be seen clearly. Behind her, a huge stone statue composed of blue-gray rocks of different sizes cast a shadow. Its head was as big as three adult heads, and its face was only
There are three holes, two small and one large, serving as eyes and mouth.
In front of the stone statue is a boy of fourteen or fifteen years old with high cheekbones. His gray-blue eyes are curiously observing the fog floating on the sea. To his right is a man who looks to be about twenty years old and wears frame glasses with longer hair.
The length almost dropped to his shoulders, his brows were furrowed, and his gaze towards the mist revealed vigilance and confusion.
This is a treasure hunting team formed by the new treasure hunter "Reader" Jamil from Ma Xi. They are here to find the "Ghost Empire" that has been missing for thousands of years and carries the last legacy of the Trunsoest Empire in the Fourth Age.
A trace of surprise flashed across Alicia's dark gray eyes, and she stretched out her right hand to break the gap between the spiritual world and the real world with a casual wave, in an attempt to enter the spiritual world again.
But as soon as the power of the spiritual world came, the surrounding spiritual creatures also tried to use this power to enter the real world. However, these transparent creatures with indescribable forms were all dyed with a color of iron and blood, and the surroundings were filled with a thick
The smoke, streaks of different colors, and the clear brilliance containing endless knowledge were also obscured.
Jamil and Rawls, who had turned on their "spiritual vision", frowned and turned their attention to Alicia, with obvious surprise in her voice:
"They are 'Weather Warlocks'. As angels of the 'Hunter' path, they can change the weather on a large scale and use weather changes to provide cover for fatal blows. The mist floating on the sea is their biggest support and can cover the extraordinary people.
'Spiritual vision', 'intuition', 'divination', and 'language' can also prevent extraordinary people who enter their hunting area from leaving here through teleportation in the spiritual world.
In the Fourth Age, the Einhorn and Sauron families of the Trunsoest Empire controlled this path. They often used the "fog of war" to secretly attack the Zaratul family and the Zoroastrian family of the Solomon Empire.
They suffered heavy losses."
Jamil's eyes lit up. He knew a lot about the history of the Fourth Age, and he also knew about the Beyonder families involved, but this high sequence, especially the extraordinary knowledge involving the angel level, was not that great even if he had a demigod mother.
Easily and easily obtainable.
Feeling the faint call coming from the mist, Rawls did not feel anything abnormal in his body. He pushed up the glasses on the bridge of his nose, combined with what he knew about the Fourth Age, and learned from Alicia's revelation
The few details revealed pieced together some history.
At that time, Alistar Tudor had become the true god of the 'Hunter' path. The Einhorn family and the Sauron family definitely did not dare to face the true gods of their own path, especially since their ancestors had been stewed in a pot.
In this situation, a sneak attack on Solomon's Second Empire, which is missing the Medici, is the best option.
The "Hunter" path is actually quite restrained against the "Soothsayers". Their conspiracy is entirely based on the advantage of IQ. Only in the subtleties can extraordinary power be reflected, and it is difficult to get reminders from the spiritual world. What's more, the "Soothsayers" are all a group of people.
Crispy skin, facing a "Hunter" with high attack and defense, and then using "Battlefield Fog" to divide it, it will be difficult to escape.
But in this case, Jamil can write a letter to his mother, Ms. Dorothy... Rawls patted Jamil on the shoulder:
"Jemiel, you have to write a letter to your mother, Ms. Dorothy, telling her that you are going to explore the 'Ghost Empire'."
"Why?" Jamil's eyes widened and he looked at Rawls in disbelief, "If my mother knew about it, she would definitely take me back."
"That was in Bayam. Now we have entered the edge of the 'Ghost Empire'. Even if you write to her, she will not be able to get here in a short time. After entering the 'fog of war', even your mother
It's also difficult to predict your location. Although we have boarding credentials, no one can be sure whether there is any danger inside.
The demigod just said that the 'Fog of War' is the ability of the 'Weather Warlock', which corresponds to an angel. No matter whether it is a living angel or the power of a sealed object, be careful and you will never
There is something wrong. If we fall inside and your mother cannot save us even after she gets here, we can still use the power of the Church of Knowledge.
Faced with the 'Ghost Empire', the legacy of the Trunsoest Empire, and faced with the extraordinary characteristics of the angelic level, His Highness Albert Mendoza, the Supreme Master of the Church of Knowledge, will even come in person."
"Oh well……"
After listening to Rawls' explanation, Jamil suddenly felt that he and Romit had made a mistake by rashly searching for the "Ghost Empire". Those were angels! Even within the church, there were only two of them! But the teenagers
His personality made him give up exploring, and he was somewhat unwilling to do so.
Under the mask, Alicia's face suddenly changed. She reached out and held down Rawls's shoulder. It was as if there was a rope tied around her waist and she was being pulled. Her body rose rapidly, dragging the person who didn't know what was happening.
Rolls flies high into the sky.
The invisible barrier supporting the stone golems Romit and Jamil also disappeared and fell heavily to the sea. Jamil, who was still struggling, opened his mouth wide, and a sharp scream that seemed to shatter glass burst out from his throat.
, but then he felt an invisible force holding him up one or two meters above the sea surface. The same was true for the huge and heavy stone golem.
"What's wrong?" Rawls looked at Alicia in confusion from high in the air. He still didn't know what happened.
"It seems that this lady has discovered me."
An extremely rational and even cold female voice sounded on the sea. Jamil's eyes were wide open with his heart pounding. The surprise and confusion in his eyes seemed to overflow. He looked at the stone demon floating beside him in disbelief.
Like Romit, stammering:
"Mom...Mom?"
Jamil's voice was loud, and Rawls's eyes widened. He lowered his head and looked at the stone golem. There was no change, it was still a stone statue, but it was not Romit, that is, Jamil's nanny.
? How could she suddenly become Jamil’s mother?
"You two, I don't mean any harm, I just want to take my child home... Also, can you come down? Romit can't use much of my strength, and her body is too heavy."
Rawls hesitated for a while, nodded towards Alicia, slowly fell down, and looked straight at the female Dorothy Lovelace who had the appearance of a stone golem, but was actually the Sequence 4 "Prophet"
Earl, while Cemil, who was floating beside him, lowered his head and did not dare to say a word.
At this moment, the appearance of the stone golem has undergone different changes. Layers of mercury-like runes appear on the surface of the blue-grey stone body, like shining eyes. These runes are both in ancient Hermes and Elvish.
Giant and other older languages.
The two holes representing the eyes were no longer pitch black. Two gray-blue illusory eyes that were somewhat similar to Jamil were floating inside, as if they were looking at Rawls up and down. Her eyes were on Rawls.
After staying for a long time, he said:
"You should know my name from Jamil, but out of politeness, I would like to introduce myself first. I am Dorothy Lovelace, Countess of the Kingdom of Marsi, and the 'Prophet of Sequence 4'
'."
Rawls bowed slightly:
"Hello, Mrs. Lovelace."
"Lovelace is my last name."
Okay, Jamil didn't tell me this, but you are a countess after all, so you should be polite, right? No wonder that as a 'prophet' you can create stone golems and make stone golems
The strange operation of being a nanny for his son... Rawls complained secretly, with a smile still on his face:
"I'm sorry, Ms. Dorothy."
There should be no problem this time, right?
The stone golem had no neck, but it actually made a nodding-like movement under Dorothy's control. She turned her gaze to Alicia, who was wearing a mask and hood:
"Hello, Ms. Law Master."
Jamil raised his head in surprise. He had always thought that this demigod should be from the "apprentice" path, but he did not expect that he was a demigod from the "arbiter" path. However, he thought that his plan to explore the "Ghost Empire" failed, and then
When I was about to return to Ma Xi, I felt depressed again.
"Hello, Ms. Dorothy." Alicia didn't take it seriously either. As a member of the Tamara family that supports the Tudor Empire, she is well aware of the capabilities and style of the "Reader" path.
But Ms. Dorothy did not continue talking to Alicia. Her illusive eyes turned to Rawls aside and thanked:
"Thank you for taking care of Jamil. It would have been better if you didn't bring him here."
It would be nice if your tone wasn't so cold... But Rawls can only think about it in his heart. After all, without him, it would be impossible for Jamil to find the "Ghost Empire" so quickly. No, it is completely impossible, after all
Even when he rented a fishing boat to go to a deserted island, he was robbed, let alone find a boat that could take him here.
It's just that this "prophet" can directly use this stone golem to speak and display certain extraordinary abilities. He should have appeared long ago and taken Jamil back.
"Although I can possess the stone golem through the 'Séance Ritual', it requires certain conditions. It will only be triggered when I reach the vicinity of the 'Ghost Empire'."
"Mom? How did you..."
"I collected that logbook, including the boarding vouchers, and I found them one by one. Otherwise, would I have left such an obvious thing in the study?"
Jamil lowered his head and stopped talking. He felt like a clown in the circus, no, a stupid black bear under the whip of the trainer!
Rawls couldn't say much about mothers educating their sons, so he had to change the subject:
"'Spiritual Spiritual Reconciliation'? I remember that there should be a distance limit, right? This place is at least tens of thousands of kilometers away from Ma Xi..." Before he could finish his words, he could see the surprise in his illusory eyes, but
It seemed like a top student saw a bad student suddenly solve an impossible question.
"Although I don't know where you know it from, my 'spiritual ritual' is different from others. When I refined this stone golem, in addition to studying the abilities of the 'ancient alchemist',"
The Alchemist's mechanical doll is also a reference. Apart from the time it takes to mentally travel through the spiritual world, there are no other problems. It's just that Romit prefers the 'cultivator' path and cannot use too much of my energy.
strength.
If the Church of Steam is willing to share their experience and knowledge with me, or give me the design drawings left by Roselle in their possession, this problem may be solved, but unfortunately they are not willing to do so."
Madam, I am not interested in your design ideas or your grudges with the Church of Steam. I just want to preserve a little face of Jamil. A child of this age is also an extraordinary person. Are you really not afraid that he will lose control if he can't think about it for a moment?
Rawls sighed invisibly and changed the subject again:
"Since you already know about the 'Ghost Empire' and have found the boarding voucher, why not board the ship?"
What's more important is that he secretly revealed these things to his children and then blocked them at a critical moment. Is this behavior really good?
"Not everyone can board that ship, even if they have boarding credentials. The owner of that voyage diary should have some blood from the Sauron family, so he can get out alive. And that ship is very important to the extraordinary people of the Church of the Seven Gods.
It is very repulsive. Even if the church uses '0' level sealed objects or dispatches angels, it will only create greater danger.
Without your help, Jamil would still be wandering on the sea at this time, and it would be impossible to get here. As for why I gave him the voyage diary and boarding voucher, it is because I saw better changes in the prophecy. Only now
It seems that this change has little impact on me, but it is a very good thing for you."
Sure enough, things are not that good. If one could board the ship with a boarding pass, then the Church of Knowledge would have emptied the "Ghost Empire" long ago. It seems that the trip was in vain. Although the call inside is still there, it seems
There were no unusual changes, so returning to Backlund shouldn't be a big problem.
But Rawls, who was just planning to return, suddenly heard that this was a very good thing for him, and looked at those illusive gray-blue eyes in surprise and confusion.
