Chapter 431 The Mission of the Morse Ascetic Order
In the Fourth Age, even within the unified Solomon First Empire, there are still various contradictions and alliances hidden. The major angel families are also close to each other, and externally there is the Orthodox Church, the erosion of the abyss, and the influence of foreign gods.
and many other factors.
For example, in the late United Empire, after Tamara was ambushed by Trunsoest and many other angels, Mr. "Gate" extended a helping hand to the Tamara family. In addition to gaining allies for himself, it was also because they were friends in the third era.
.
The Moss Ascetic Order was the earliest secret organization in the Fourth Age, and it had good relations with all the major orthodox churches. In addition, its own path did not compete with other families, which allowed them to create hidden sages.
Judging from the fact that Constantine and Stiano had already begun preparing for the ceremony at that time, Rawls has reason to speculate that this hidden sage is composed of the uniqueness of the "hermit" path and at least one attribute of the "Emperor of Knowledge"
An impersonal god, because Stiano will most likely possess the "Emperor of Knowledge" attribute.
Perhaps because of the faith and anchor brought by the Moss Ascetic Society, or perhaps due to the influence of the source material "Knowledge Wilderness" sealed in the Western Continent, the "Hidden Sage" was born. And her birth was a surprise to those who were preparing to complete the ceremony.
Constantine and Stiano, the angel of the "hermit" path, caused pollution and had to find ways to remove the pollution.
Looking at the letter on the table, Rawls sighed and owed another favor. He should pay it back slowly in the future. With Russell's card in hand, the reward he could give would be even more generous.
…
"You mean, there is a 'faceless man' beside Overton?"
Amyrius, who had already fallen asleep, did not feel angry because Lurian woke him up. He was wearing dark red pajamas and pajamas of the same color, sitting on the soft sofa, and raised the corners of his slightly drooped mouth, which was quite surprising.
When Overton became the chief intelligence officer of MI9 in the Central Sonia region, he received relevant information about the brigadier general. Although his resume before becoming a colonel was largely blank, his resume after that was quite impressive.
It was so amazing that people from the General Directorate of External Security of Intis suffered several losses.
Therefore, he was valued by Serge, the director of MI9, and transferred him to his side to be responsible for dealing with Intis Ambassador to Loen, Becron Jean Madin, and was promoted to brigadier general. Although he did not achieve any effective results, he was also slightly
There were losses, but last year after the ambassador was forced to resign, he took advantage of the fact that the new ambassador had not yet become familiar with the job, and eliminated a group of Intis spies.
This merit was enough for him to be promoted, but due to the influence of the Great Smog Incident and the assassination of Duke Negan involving MI9, it has been delayed until now.
When Ofotong officially takes over the intelligence work in the Zhongsonia region, he will be promoted to major general.
With his identity, he naturally understands what a "faceless man" represents.
Whether it is the CIA during Russell's time or the current Directorate of External Security of Intis, they are both recognized as the number one intelligence agency, and they rely on many extraordinary people in the "divineer" path.
In particular, the "Faceless Man" of Sequence 6 can easily disguise himself as intelligence personnel from various countries and use this identity to complete various tasks.
"He is not a member of MI9, but Overton protects him very much." The handsome Lu Er'an lowered his head and replied.
"Let them come over!"
Amyrius crossed his fingers and placed them on his lower abdomen, seemingly not understanding the meaning of Lu Er'an's words.
"yes."
…
Marble floor tiles, piano, stone carvings, oil paintings, carpets... After following Brigadier Overton into the living room, Klein's dark brown eyes swept around, preparing for the worst.
When his eyes moved to the man in pajamas on the sofa, the indescribable sense of majesty and oppression made him lower his head involuntarily.
It seems that this is Emilius Levitt. He is worthy of being the supreme commander of the Zhongsunian Navy and the demigod of the "Arbitrator" path... He let out a sigh of relief, and Klein couldn't help but feel something in his heart.
.
But when a conflict with pirates could break out at any time, shouldn't you stay at the naval base? At least in a command center like the Governor's Palace, right?
When Klein entered, he noticed that this was probably not the admiral's home in Bayam. Although it was luxurious, it lacked any obvious status symbol.
"Lu Er'an has already told me the matter. It seems that Selt will issue a notice of your promotion to major general soon."
"It's just a group of little pirates." After hearing Amyrius's words, Brigadier Overton's slightly ugly face also had a smile on his face, "Thanks to your support, General."
Although MI9 where he works does not have to obey the admiral's orders, the other party's status and strength do not allow him to ignore the other party at all like he did with Lu Erhan.
Amyrius didn't say much. He looked at Klein behind Overton and said:
"Lu Er'an told me that there is a 'faceless man' beside you?"
"Yes. Please let me introduce you..." Overton turned sideways and stretched out his right hand, "Gehrman Sparrow, the adventurer from Backlund."
He deliberately raised his voice on "Backlund".
Backlund?
Amyrius ignored Lu Er'an, who was sweating on his forehead, and said in a majestic voice:
"That means you are trustworthy!"
"Yes!" Overton gritted his teeth and replied.
"Okay, Lu Er'an..."
"Yes, General." The blond secretary took a step forward, ignoring the beads of sweat on his forehead. "The pirates dare not confront our fleet head-on, even Nast, who arrogated the title of king, did the same. In order to keep his reputation, he
They will only let the pirates harass around to attract the assistance of the naval fleet, and then look for opportunities to attack. After getting some small results that are enough to account for those stupid pirates, they will retreat.
After the general understood Nast's psychology, he decided to set a trap to lure him into taking the bait. However, he had also been at sea for many years, and ordinary traps could easily be seen through by him, so he needed someone to pretend to be a general and stay in the main fleet.
…”
This plan was supplemented by using Edward Laitor as bait.
Nast definitely wanted to execute the defecting first mate with his own hands, but he also definitely knew that Roen would use this as a trap, and he might not be willing to fall for it. So it cannot be ruled out that all this is just a disguise for the pirate king.
Seize this opportunity to sneak attack the weaker fleet again.
If we use this to set another trap, we might be able to catch Nast.
It sounds like a very good plan! But what if Nast does the opposite? Then I will be doomed as Emilius... There is no expression on Klein's stern face, but in his heart
It's playing the drums.
I just want to fish in troubled waters and don’t want to go to the center of the whirlpool!
His right hand subconsciously reached into his pocket and touched the gold coin inside. He would not dare to agree to such a thing without doing a few divination.
After taking out the gold coin and feeling the focus of attention, Klein's movements still did not pause at all. He bounced the gold coin loudly and watched it roll and spin before falling into his palm.
The number facing up indicates negation.
It shouldn't be a big problem. You can agree to it temporarily and try it again above the gray fog.
If it weren't for the fact that there was a demigod in front of him waiting for his answer, Klein would definitely have found an excuse to go to the bathroom first.
"I want to know what the reward is!"
Amyrius withdrew his gaze, turned his palm and revealed a dark golden talisman.
This spell has symbolic symbols such as "Sword of Judgment" and dense magic marks on it. It is restrained and deep, giving people the feeling that it is a code.
"This is an advanced spell I made using my own blood, the ancient code of the Fourth Age and the royal family's '0' level sealed object." Amyrius said calmly, "It's called the 'Ninth Law', and it can give a small amount of
In a spiritual situation, even ordinary people can achieve this by showing a sense of majesty similar to mine. Without it, it would be difficult for you to truly disguise me.
Lurian will be with you and he will tell you what to do. If the spell is not used, it is yours and is valid for one year."
Indeed, the majesty of my transformation simulation is limited to the surface. I usually have no problem with the lake, but I may not be able to hide it from Nast, the Sequence 3 "Crazy Mage"... Klein quietly breathed a sigh of relief, even though he was confident that he would have the chance to get it.
I was happy to find a high-level talisman, but still raised my own doubts:
"Mr. Admiral, I have a question."
The blond secretary Lu Eran and Brigadier General Overton looked at Klein fiercely, with warning and fear in their eyes.
But Amyrius didn't seem to care very much:
"explain."
"I think Nast should have many subordinates who are good at divination, or he himself has a certain understanding of this aspect..."
Klein has the "Black Emperor" card in his hand, and the above description of the "Frenzy Mage" in Sequence 3 talks about their ability to sense danger through changes in rules and order.
The admiral was silent for a while, looked at Klein deeply and said:
"Although this is not something you need to consider, I can tell you that we have been prepared for this."
Already prepared?
As a "divinationist", Klein knows that divination is not omnipotent. He can go above the gray mist to divine who will win in the end of this war, but the final result may not be consistent with the result of divination.
In addition to the vagaries of fate, there are also factors such as his location and the advance information he has obtained. Unless he is the protagonist of this war, his divination results will be closer to the actual results.
For Nast, the divination results or warnings he received were the closest to his destiny.
He had already been prepared, which meant that the Navy affected Nast's judgment in this regard.
Is it the "Chaos Hunter" prince? This name sounds like he is restraining the "Crazy Mage"...
…
In the northwest of the Rossed Sea, a huge sailing ship sailed on the sea. There were ten white stars of the same size on the flag, which surrounded an indifferent eye without eyelashes.
This is the "Future" of "Star Admiral" Cattleya!
In the captain's room, on the exquisite wooden bed covered with velvet quilts, Cattleya sat alone on the bed, holding her knees with her hands, her head buried in her knees. She was still wearing the mysterious classic black robe.
The subtle crimson light shone on her through the window, making her feel a little more fragile when she was covered with a layer of dreamy gauze.
It has been almost six hours since she entered the waters of Rossed, but she still has not received the next letter from Her Majesty the Queen.
This made Cattleya seem to have returned to the time when she had just left her. The unknown and confusion made her overwhelmed. The tall figure appeared in her mind, and her ears recalled the memory that she could never forget.
Discourse:
"Leave, your destiny is not with me."
Suddenly, her body trembled, as if a cold wind was blowing on her through the open window.
She suddenly raised her head and instinctively looked at the table with the astrology device, where a letter lay quietly.
Cattleya jumped off the bed, ran over without even wearing any shoes, and stopped four or five steps away from the table. Her smile gradually became stiff, and the disgust in her eyes almost became substantial.
Her back bent, she turned around and walked dejectedly to the bed and sat down.
I don't know how long it took before she put on her shoes again, put on the pair of heavy-framed glasses and came to the table. The envelope was gray-yellow, with numbers and various occult symbols on it, surrounding the indifference without eyelashes.
Eye.
This is a letter from the Trappist Order of Moss.
In addition to being a pirate general, Cattleya is also one of the ten pillars of the Moss Ascetic Order, representing the interests of the sea.
As she tore open the envelope, the look of disgust on her face gradually disappeared and was replaced by joy.
Throwing the letter away casually, she took out a pen and paper, raised the corner of her mouth and wrote:
"There is news from the Moss Ascetic Society, asking me to pay close attention to the abnormal situation in the Rossed Sea. I suspect that this has something to do with you..."
After leaving Her Majesty the Queen, she did not dare to write a letter unless there were special circumstances. Even if she received a letter from Her Majesty this time, she could only follow her heart's instructions and wait for the next letter.
But the unexpected letter from the Moss Ascetic Society gave Cattleya the opportunity to write a letter to express her inner emotions. Maybe His Highness will relent?
…
Simim Island, near the jungle.
The blazing bonfire raised black smoke. Although it was smoky, it brought enough warmth.
The Rhoside Islands are located in the south, and the lowest temperature in winter is about 10 degrees. This is a wilderness, and without a campfire, a healthy local can freeze to death.
Beside the campfire are three men, one woman, and two tents.
The only lady has black hair that is simply tied up and a pair of very distinctive blue-grey eyes. She has an attractive appearance, and the more she looks at her, the more interesting she becomes.
She was obviously not of local race, but she was wearing a men's shirt, a thick brown jacket, and a round-brimmed hat with a hollow in the middle.
This is a common adventurer outfit on the sea, and the three men on the side are also the same, and they have obvious signs of being exposed to the sun and rain.
The lady held a map tanned from unknown leather in her hand, squinting her eyes to examine it carefully under the light of the dancing flames.
The three men remained silent, only throwing the dry branches they picked up into the bonfire from time to time.
