"Justice" Audrey and others did not know who the "Crazy Captain" was, and were not too interested in the news. They were just a little curious about why such a shipwreck occurred.
"The Hanged Man" Alger's feelings were completely different from theirs. Not to mention that "Sea King" Yan Coatman also issued an order for the "Punisher" and "Captain Sailor" to investigate the relevant situation.
It’s not even the right time for “The World” to mention this matter. “Crazy Captain” Connors’ death happened in the early morning of last Monday, and “The World” didn’t mention it at the Tarot meeting that day!
As for whether this was because "the world" had not received the news, Alger didn't believe it. The other party was Mr. Fool's representative in the real world. His eyes moved slightly and he thought briefly:
"In Byam, the Church of Storms is actively investigating the people and things related to 'Crazy Captain' Connors Victor."
Hehe, I don’t need to entrust it with anything else... Klein chuckled secretly and asked The World to ask directly:
"What clues does the Church of Storms have?"
"I don't know, I will try my best to find out." "The Hanged Man" Alger shook his head calmly.
Klein manipulated "The World" to nod slightly and then turned to the "Emperor" who had been silent:
"Haha, this matter is related to the previous case of missing people in the colony..."
The reason why he didn't mention this matter last week was because he was wondering whether Mr. "Emperor" had changed his mind on this matter.
When he learned that this matter involved the Loen royal family Augustus, especially after knowing the importance of the Angel family, Klein knew that if he wanted to investigate this matter clearly, he would definitely encounter great resistance and great danger, but
His personality didn't allow him to ignore this matter, so he could only think of solutions elsewhere.
Mr. "Emperor" is the biggest breakthrough.
The other party has been investigating missing persons and has been "repeatedly ostracized" because of this, which also proves that Augustus is not monolithic.
But Mr. "Emperor" is not without problems. The true identity of the other party has always been unknown, and now he has been promoted to a demigod. It is very likely that he has received greater support from Augustus, which may change his mind. So "Crazy Captain"
"Connors Victor was the person Klein used to test his opponent's attitude.
"The Witch Cult will hand over the deceived or plundered populations to external forces such as 'Vice Admiral Disease' Tracy, who will transport them to the east coast of the Northern Continent, and use 'Crazy Captain' Connors Victor to complete the final distance.
This pirate has close ties with many human traffickers and slave traders in Loen.
"I told Mr. 'The Hanged Man' in January that someone witnessed Barron, who was involved in the disappearance, meeting with MI9 officers loyal to the royal family.
"Also, Backlund's biggest human trafficker, Kaping, has a protector in the 'arbitrator' way.
"With so many things put together, do you still think that the death of the 'Crazy Captain' was a simple internal dispute among pirates?
"Haha, I've been thinking, what does the person behind the scenes want so many slaves?"
The clear connections between the clues appeared in the minds of "Justice" Audrey, "The Hanged Man" Alger and others, making them suddenly understand a lot of things.
I still mentioned this matter... Rawls squinted his eyes. When he saw the relevant reports last week, he was surprised to find that Klein did not mention this matter at the Tarot meeting. He originally thought it was because he was worried about himself.
Augustus, but I didn’t expect that it had only been a week and he still mentioned it.
Is this a temptation?
Rawls knew that if he behaved incorrectly, it would be difficult to communicate with him on matters involving this aspect in the future, and he would lose the sharpest knife against the Augustus family.
When he first didn't know that he had the identity of Crown Prince Ma Xi, he pretended to be a member of Augustus in order to learn a lot of mysterious knowledge for himself, especially the knowledge of the Fourth Age and even before, and to put a reasonable skin on it.
Cover up the special relationship with "Uncertain Fog".
Although Klein is a novice in mysticism, his cautious character means that he will not take too many risks. Neither Audrey nor Alger know much about the mysterious world, which is suitable for him. But Rawls can easily let him
If the party overturns, maybe the other party will really give up the Tarot Club, at least give up the three of them, and form another party.
Therefore, the identity of MI9 and Augustus can make Klein's death-seeking curiosity not give up easily, and Rawls's attitude of being cautious and not excessively participating in the party can also make him feel at ease.
It wasn't until Rawls planned to use Klein to destroy George III's plan to become a god and make Loen's political arena chaotic so that he could be promoted. Especially when he later assumed the identity of Crown Prince Ma Xi and married Princess Delina, he realized that he had been pretending to be a god.
How important is your identity.
A member who was born in Augustus but was dissatisfied with the death of a large number of people due to Augustus' plan to become a god was enough to give Klein a certain amount of trust. Even if he always had doubts in his heart, he would at least have the idea of taking advantage of this opportunity.
, which fits his character very well.
That is to say, I really hold the idea in my heart that George III failed and took control of Augustus. Otherwise, if I change to a real Augustus, Klein is a typical TV and movie protagonist who mistrusts others and makes irreparable mistakes.
...Rolls looked around, and his actions instantly attracted the attention of other members.
At this time, "Justice" and others realized that Mr. "Emperor" was also Augustus, also from MI9, but the other party had repeatedly investigated missing persons, so they instinctively ignored this.
The "hermit" Cattleya, who did not understand the previous situation, also became more vigilant and wondered if a sophisticate in the "world" should not make such a mistake. Could it be that she was warning Mr. "Emperor"?
Seeing the faces of other members hidden behind the gray mist, Rawls chuckled, turned to Klein and said:
"Dear Mr. Fool, I would like to communicate with Mr. World alone."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Communicate alone?
Audrey's eyes stayed on the "Emperor" opposite. The other person did not seem to show fear. Instead, he felt that he had been prepared. He had been waiting for Mr. "World" to mention this matter.
Want to defend yourself?
This is the first thought of Alger and Cattleya. The "Emperor" is a demigod of the "Lawyer" path. He has extraordinary bonuses in speech ability. Even if he does not dare to be too presumptuous in this special place, he can be persuaded and misled.
One person should still have no problem.
The "Emperor" is so anxious! Mr. "Moon" Emlyn raised his chin with a smile on his lips. He doesn't have a good impression of MI9 and Augustus at all now. Seeing the "Emperor" in trouble
, naturally very happy.
Although Klein was also a little confused, he still nodded. While creating a barrier to isolate other members, he also became more vigilant in his heart. He could clearly remember the verbal aggression Mr. "Emperor" showed in every single communication.
His temperament is much better than usual, fully demonstrating the characteristics of an extraordinary person with a "lawyer" path.
"Do you remember the question you just asked?"
Question? Which question?
Rawls' question made Klein stunned for a moment. Fortunately, he didn't ask too many questions before. He just thought about it briefly and found the answer. He manipulated the "world" and asked:
"Why does the one behind the scenes need so many slaves?"
"Yes, this is a big question!" Rawls crossed his fingers and touched his chin, "What if what is needed is not a slave?"
Not a slave? What do you want to do? It can't be just playing house... Klein secretly complained, but what the "Emperor" said after that surprised him.
"It won't be long before you become an extraordinary person, right?"
What do you mean by this? Where did I expose my flaw? Klein asked The World to reply in a deep voice:
"What exactly do you want to say?"
"It's nothing... I'd better tell you what I think first?"
Rawls doesn’t care whether Klein agrees or not, he just thinks on his own:
"In a big city like Backlund, it's normal for people to go missing. They die in gang fights, offended people are sunk into the Tasoke River, people die of illness and are left unclaimed on the streets, girls are abducted and trafficked... But there is one thing. These people
After disappearing, he will not be regarded as a slave servant of any noble. This is not because the nobles have a heart of gold, but this will bring them great danger.
"Once a large number of people disappear in the Northern Continent, the three major churches will immediately take action, because this often means that someone is performing some kind of ritual. This may be to sacrifice to an evil being, or it may be to complete a ritual.
Promotion ceremony. And there is only one possibility for the disappearance of people in the southern continent colonies..."
"Complete the promotion ceremony..."
Klein also realized the problem and why the "Emperor" would say that he had just become an Beyonder. This was because this was a normal Sequence 5 thought. They already knew that the subsequent promotion ceremony required rituals.
Yes, you can worship the evil god anywhere, so why transport it from the southern continent to the northern continent? This will only leave more clues!
But what kind of ceremony does Augustus need to perform, and why does it take so much effort? They are a family of angels!
Angel family?
These two words were like a bolt of lightning that cut through the night sky and illuminated the heaven and earth. They kept roaring in Klein's mind, and even the "Emperor"'s subsequent words could not be heard clearly.
Become a god?
Become a god!
Only the Godhood Ceremony can allow an angel family to continue even at the risk of being discovered by the three major churches.
After the huge shock, Klein quickly calmed down and listened carefully to Mr. "Emperor"'s subsequent words. He was now "The Fool" and should have seen this kind of thing a long time ago, but "the world" didn't need it, so he was stunned for a moment.
Too big a problem.
"...Involving such a large population, as far as I know, this does not conform to the relevant ceremony of the high-sequence promotion of the 'Arbiter', and some time ago, the 'King of the Five Seas' Nast..."
"The World" suddenly interrupted and spit out two words:
"'Black Emperor'!"
Someone wants to be the "Black Emperor"!
Klein relied on the ability of the "Joker" to control his expression and conceal the complex emotions in his heart. Before this, he had never imagined that in the extraordinary and hidden fifth era, there would be people who wanted to attack the divine throne, even if they had just passed
Russell's diary deduced that this fellow time traveler might finally charge towards the location of the "Black Emperor", but he did not connect the two events.
Klein's mind is indeed unusual... Rawls nodded and said in an extremely complicated tone:
"That's right, it's the 'Black Emperor'. Our King actually wants to break through the restrictions of the three major contracts and attack the divine throne..."
Is it George III? Klein didn't react for a moment, but then he realized that only George III could meet this condition. Although he was the King of Loen, he had worn the crown of the Balam Empire a long time ago and put his name on it.
It is associated with the title of emperor.
"Three major contracts? What are those?"
"As far as I know, it may be a contract signed by the royal families of each country and the Zhengshen Church before the establishment of the four countries in the Northern Continent. One of the clauses is that the king can only reach Sequence 5..."
It seems that George III has bypassed the constraints of the contract? Yes, the "Black Emperor" path itself is a variety of uses of rules... But is Mr. "Emperor" a little too frank? After realizing that his family is seeking the throne of God
To launch an attack, even if you don't support it, at least you shouldn't oppose it. Waiting silently is the best way.
"This is a good thing for Augustus." "The World" concluded in a slightly sarcastic tone.
"That's not necessarily true." Rawls looked at the mysterious patterns on the bronze table and said in a low voice, "It's hard for me to believe that it is George III who is attacking the throne!"
Is this jealousy or unwillingness? Klein tried to figure out the "Emperor's" psychology.
"The 'founder' is still here!"
"The Founder"? Isn't that the one in the middle of the 10-pound note, William I, the founding king of Loen? He is still alive. No, it should be him. It feels like history has entered reality... Klein's Taste
With the "Emperor" tone, the other party meant that if William I wanted to become a god, he would not object? This angel actually supported George III?
Is this a portrayal of a different world that is not worried about scarcity but inequality?
It is indeed difficult for royal demigods like the "Emperor" to accept that their status as demigods would not be much worse than that of the king, and they even have an advantage in lifespan, but now...
Klein suddenly realized a problem. Since Mr. "Emperor" thought so, it meant that some strong men in Augustus must have similar thoughts after knowing about it. At most, they had to grit their teeth to support it due to the attitude of William I.
That’s all.
Augustus is definitely not monolithic!
But even so, the birth of a true god is still a great temptation for Augustus... Klein suddenly became discouraged. Now this is no longer a problem that he can solve. Unless there are other forces to stop George III...
Other powers?
Three major churches!
Yes, since Mr. "Emperor" said that the seven major churches have signed three major contracts with the royal families of various countries, it means that the seven gods do not allow anyone to become a god. As long as he reports to the church, Augustus will have to reap the consequences!
