Chapter 387: The God of Steam and Machinery Full of Questions
Rawls naturally knew Alger's little thoughts, and he should obviously know the time when the God of Steam and Machinery appeared. But he did not answer it, but just nodded and acquiesced to "The Hanged Man"
statement.
Although in his previous life, he, like many curly baboons, believed that the God of Steam and Machinery had far better luck than the two angels who really occupied the path of destiny. After all, not everyone can directly become a god without digesting the Sequence 1 potion.
So crazy.
In fact, there are too many doubts surrounding this last righteous god. Rawls knew from some records of the Tamara family and Alicia's mouth that this person was a quite secretive existence before and after he became a god.
People know who he is, and even the "Hand of Order", the ancestor of the Tamara family, only calls him "the craftsman."
Before that, his "Artisan Church" had been secretly established for a long time, hardly attracting attention, and it was a secret organization in the true sense.
In the Fourth Age, the "Black Emperor" Solomon ascended to the throne of God twice. The "Blood Emperor", "Night Emperor", "Underworld Emperor", and "Original Witch" all became gods at this stage, but almost all of them fell, and none of them fell.
The "original witch" has only recently gradually recovered.
But the God of Steam and Machinery not only survived, but also became a true god. This is not just luck.
In addition, according to the records of the Tamara family, shortly after the "Hidden Sage" believed in by the Moss Ascetic Order was activated, the "God of Craftsmen" ascended to the throne.
"Perfect" and "Hermit" are adjacent paths!
Rawls had previously suspected that the Moss Ascetic Society chose to believe in impersonal gods, that is, hidden sages, in order to complete the ritual of becoming a god or to accommodate uniqueness, but later the leader Stiano and Constantine played tricks
When it was smashed, the Hidden Sage turned into the personified evil god "Hidden Sage" and suffered pollution.
In order to avoid being completely contaminated, one of them chose an adjacent path, but this did not eliminate the pollution and had to take the risk to be promoted to "Perfect".
If this is the case, then there are several questions, such as where did the previous "Craftsman Church" come from?
Also, since Stiano and Constantine want to choose this method, it means that they are angels of the "Hermit" path and are in a competitive relationship with each other. So why do they choose to cooperate?
Unless these two people were prepared in advance, one chose to be promoted to the "Perfect One" and the other chose to become a "Hermit", but the final result was different from their expectations, and the uniqueness of the "Hermit" was activated.
It would be interesting to know who became the God of Steam and Machinery?
Rawls even had an exaggerated guess, that is, is the God of Steam and Machinery really not involved with the "Hidden Sage"?
The Fourth Age is truly a terrifying era, and every being who can become a god is not that simple.
…
The Tarot Club was still going on. After Klein pointed the finger at the "Rose of Redemption", although everyone was puzzled, they all believed that they just didn't understand Mr. Fool's meaning. Then they presented Russell's diary, and Rawls also pretended.
I handed over a piece of information about Russell's bed.
After Klein's reading, it was time for formal communication among the members, and Rawls was the first to speak according to his previous thoughts:
"Mr. Fool, I would like to have a private communication with Mr. World."
Communicating alone again?
Audrey's eyes flickered back and forth between the two of them. This was not in line with their usual behavior, and this was the second time!
Is there cooperation or transaction between the two of them? Is it still related to the "Black Emperor" card? Alger, with an increasingly strong sense of crisis in his heart, clenched his fists. He found it difficult to gain an advantage among the members of the Tarot Society in terms of strength and resources.
Choose to focus your goals on uniting other members.
Audrey is from a noble family, and is obviously closer to the "Emperor" who is from the Augustus family; although the "Magician" performs mediocrely, just because she knows how to act, it proves that she is not that simple, and in
When there are female members in the Tarot Society, it is difficult to stand with oneself; let alone the "World", after trading the "Black Emperor" card with the "Emperor", they will definitely be more inclined to him.
Therefore, Alger could only choose "The Sun", so he rushed to answer his questions before the "Emperor" several times. But this young member was just too... too simple!
Fors thought that she didn't feel anything. After the last tarot session, she learned from Teacher Dorian that he had the eyes of a mirror dragon and could sell them to Miss Justice at a higher price, so that she could probably collect the money to pay off the "Emperor"
"Mr.'s debt is over, although he still owes Xio a sum of money.
Thinking of this, she became even more worried that Alicia would suddenly appear in front of her after the tarot meeting, and asked herself what she was doing just now? No, she has to find a reason...
Why do you need to communicate with "The World" alone again? Could it be that MI9 found out that Lockhard's death was related to me? Impossible! Even if Sherlock Moriarty was found, it would be impossible to contact "The World"
Ah? And Mr. "Emperor" has been at sea...
Mr. "Fool" who was puzzled still nodded, blocked everyone, and allowed "The World" to ask:
"What do you want from me?"
"It's rare for you to speak in advance? Have you guessed what I'm going to ask?" Rawls raised his eyebrows. The probability that the person who killed Lockhard was Klein was getting higher and higher.
Klein's forehead jumped, and he was confused when he knew that he was concerned. With the character of "The World", he would not speak in advance, but it was too late to deny it now, so he had to control "The World" to look at Mr. "Emperor" coldly.
Feeling the eyes of the dummy "The World" sizing up its prey, Rawls continued without paying much attention:
"I remember you said last time that you were leaving Backlund. Can you tell me where you are going? If it is at sea, can I ask you a favor?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! How did he know that I was going to sea? Yes, "The World" is obviously not a member of the Church of Night or the Secret Order, and wants to be promoted to "Secret Puppet Master"
We must go to the sea to find mermaids. No, he is testing whether I have left Backlund... "The World" replied hoarsely:
“As long as the pay is enough, it’s no problem!”
"Well, because I have returned to Backlund and cannot continue to investigate the missing persons case at sea, if you can, you can help me pay attention to relevant clues."
Was he transferred back again? Shouldn't he be responsible for investigating the assassination of Duke Negan? No wonder he chose to test me... Mr. Azik killed Qilingos, and Lockhard was killed by a "gatekeeper"
Attack, from the perspective of Mr. "Emperor", Mr. Azik is the favored one of Mr. "Fool", and "The World" is the representative of many favored ones...
Klein felt a little bitter in his heart. Although he was indeed the one who killed Lockhard, he was locked up just one day later. It was inevitable that he would be a little sad.cascoot
“Why not ‘The Hanged Man’?”
"He will be under the control of the Church of Storms, and because of the assassination of George Negan, the sea is now in chaos and may not calm down for a long time. He has no time to do it."
What's more important is to find a reason to test you... A smile appeared on Rawls' lips:
"If you find relevant clues, I can tell you some history of the Fourth Age. For example, the statues of the Six Gods you see should come from the Tudor-Trunsoest United Kingdom. Only at that time did the Six Gods stand together.
."
United Kingdom? Klein thought of the two iron-black seats sitting side by side in the Tudor ruins, and remembered that Mr. "Emperor" once said that the Tudor Empire and the Trunsoest Empire were in the same era. This is
Was it caused by the division of the United Empire?
What about the Solomon Empire?
"This payment is not enough! It is not of much use to me!"
As a college student in the history department, Klein is of course very interested in those emperors and true gods, but it is of little use in improving his strength. He can no longer be a historian.
"No, it means a lot to you. The path you are in, Sequence 4, is the 'Cunning Mage', and Sequence 3 is called 'Ancient Scholar'. You should understand what it means."
"Cunning Mage"? "Ancient Scholar"?
If Sequence 4 is a "cunning mage", Klein can still understand to some extent. "Joker", "Magician", "Faceless Man", and "Puppet Master" almost all represent weirdness and cunning, even the "divineer"
"It also contains some such elements, but why is Sequence 3 an "ancient scholar"?
Do you want me to go archaeological?
Judging from what Mr. "Emperor" means, mastering historical knowledge is obviously beneficial to playing the role of "ancient scholar", but is this too far away from me...
"'Ancient Scholar' is too far away from me, so it may not be useful to me."
"The same goes for my case. If you have time and opportunity, just check it out. The sea is very chaotic now, so they may not take action."
"Okay, I agree... have you caught the 'Mage' of the Secret Order?"
Klein suddenly remembered that Mr. "Emperor" once said that MI9 had an operation targeting a certain "Cunning Mage" in Intis, and if it could obtain the relevant formula, it would trade with him.
Have I said this? Rawls blinked and said calmly:
"No, let him run away."
"I see."
Klein felt a little pity, but he didn't care too much. After all, he had just been promoted to "Faceless Man" and had enough time to search for the formula.
At this time, Rawls also remembered the lie he had made up, and said in a deep voice:
"However, I can tell you, give up on getting the formula from the Secret Order. According to the information we have collected, only their leader Zaratul knows the high-sequence formula. This is the same as many secret organizations."
In other words, the line of the Esoteric Order is broken? "The World" nodded, indicating that he understood.
After the private exchange ended, "Magician" Forsi immediately turned to look at Miss Justice on the same side and said with expectation:
"I have received a reply. My teacher has a pair of mirror dragon eyes. The price is 1,100 pounds."
Speaking of this, Fors was a little uneasy, because Dorian Gray Abraham's psychological bottom line was 800 pounds, which was already a lot more than the normal five or six hundred pounds, and on this basis, she added
A full 300 pounds.
But who made her still owe Mr. "Emperor" a sum of money?
"1,100 pounds?" "Justice" Audrey did not expect to have news about the "Psychiatrist" potion ingredients so soon, so she subconsciously asked in a confirming tone.
Without waiting for Forsi's answer, she happily added:
"Okay, deal!"
Although she had a copy of the "psychiatrist" trait she bought from Mr. "Emperor", she didn't want to use it to get promoted. This would delay her digestion of the potion, so she planned to use this trait directly on Susie.
.Although she had just paid back a sum of money to Mr. Fool's loved one, she officially became an adult this week and could use her own property.
Agree? Agree... "Magician" Forsi was happy and confused at the same time.
After requesting Mr. Fool to witness the transaction and agreeing that Miss Justice would pay first and deliver the extraordinary materials on Wednesday, Fors would definitely get the cash and go straight to Pulitzer Port without wasting time. If the timing was right,
You can avoid Alicia's inquiries.
When everything was about to end, Klein, who was watching quietly, thought of a question and felt that he needed to remind Mr. Emperor, Miss Justice and Miss Magician.
Prince Edsac and his Red Rose Manor are suspected to be contaminated by something terrifying. Neither the person who threatens nor reminds Klein can divine it above the gray mist. This is definitely not a simple matter, and
The last time a similar situation occurred, Tingen City encountered the threat of the descendants of the evil god and almost disappeared from the map!
Therefore, there is such a hidden danger in Backlund today! Klein thought for a few seconds and asked "The World" to speak hoarsely:
"Ladies and gentlemen, some news I have received recently indicates that something big is brewing in Backlund, which will bring about extremely unstable factors, and tragedy may occur."
When did Klein get involved with Edsac again? Rawls was a little confused. He asked Talim to hide behind Tingen and learned from Allen that Edsac had called them over for questioning, but
Will this matter be over after that?
"What's the big deal?" "Justice" Audrey asked with concern.
Her brows frowned slightly without realizing it.
"I don't know." "The World" shook his head calmly.
"Where will the unstable factors and possible tragedies appear?" "Magician" Forsi also asked nervously.
From previous gatherings, she confirmed that Mr. World's source was trustworthy.
"The World" looked embarrassed, shook his head and said:
"The conflicting information prevents me from giving a definite answer."
Having said this, he raised his head and looked sincerely at the figure in the gray mist across the mottled long table:
"Dear Mr. Fool, can you give us some enlightenment?"
Everyone's eyes immediately focused on the top of the long bronze table. Some were curious, some were worried, some were looking forward to it, and some were nervous.
Under such gaze, "The Fool" Klein leaned back slightly and said calmly and casually:
