Mystery: Mr. Witch and Miss Hunter

Chapter 333 The Contained Magic Lamp
Resisting the gossip about Constantine and Wendy, Adele turned her mind back to her own affairs.

In addition to the gifts for Sophie and Venata, she can choose one of the piles to keep for herself.

She's not personally interested in anything like that, but money isn't a problem with anyone.

The value of each of these works of art is more than a thousand pounds, even if you take one casually, it is a good trophy.

However, since you have to choose, it's better to use something that is practical for you...

Adele paced back and forth in the room, thinking carefully.

In terms of lack of money, she is not too short now.After all, she has spent more than ten years of her life in the Eastern District, even if she is allowed to let go and enjoy it, she doesn't know what to do.

When he was working as a personal servant in Baron Syndra's mansion, Syndras prepared expensive clothing for his subordinates in order to maintain his dignity, and the room was also luxuriously decorated and extravagant.

However, until Adele finished assassinating Baron Syndras and left pretending to be drowned, the luxury goods and expensive clothes in her room were not touched much.

Compared with the aristocrats who are used to living a stable life, Adele yearns for a peaceful and comfortable life, but unfortunately she has no choice.

Adele walked past Leano's paintings and Truitt's sculptures, which she wasn't going to choose because they wouldn't be much better in her hands than in the hands of those sailors.

—Besides, the style of these works of art doesn't suit her little home in Port Indo, unless Adele intends to hang them in the toilet, but that would be degrading and somewhat inappropriate.

Turning around, Adele suddenly discovered that inside the glass showcase containing various artworks, there was another book that was incompatible with those ancient artworks with a sense of the times.

It was a notebook with a lambskin cover, and some things were recorded in Intis's official text on the cover.

"Caesar's Living Note..."

Adele read out the words in the book with some awkwardness, and her tongue almost cramped because of Emperor Roselle's awkward words.

The grammar of this word is completely different from the common language. No matter how Adele spells it, it sounds weird. This system, like most of the systems promulgated by Roselle at that time, is incompatible with the ancient court.

"Looking at the literal meaning, it seems to be a booklet for the minor officials in the palace to record the words and deeds of Emperor Roselle... Even this has been stored as a cultural relic?"

Adele was a little curious, opened the cabinet, took out the notebook and looked through it.

The notes are obviously not original manuscripts, and have been copied and reprinted many times in the middle, and the binding is very beautiful.

The content in it also amazed Adele, focusing on the legendary king's every move in the palace from the time when Emperor Roselle set up a bureaucracy on a whim shortly before he proclaimed himself emperor to when he was assassinated to death. move.

Randomly flipping through, Adele found that in his later years, Emperor Roselle often stood in front of the west-facing window of the palace and looked out, often standing for a whole day, and then became extremely decadent, wasting away in the palace One day, and then suddenly rose again, as if he had absorbed some kind of spiritual power.

It is very likely that Roselle, like Wendy, is a person from the past... Then he has been looking west, does it mean that he already knows that his hometown is in the Western Continent?
Adele pondered and felt that this was very possible. After all, Emperor Roselle was the one who truly started the age of great voyages, and it was possible that he might discover something during the voyage.

Thinking of this, a person appeared in Adele's mind, that is Ms. "Hermit"'s mother, "Queen of Mysteries" Bernadette.

There are rumors in the sea that she is the eldest daughter of Emperor Roselle, but she herself does not hold a negative attitude towards this.However, she doesn't need to deny similar rumors, which doesn't explain anything...

Adele thought of Ms. "The Hermit"'s attitude towards Emperor Roselle at the Tarot Club, and her reaction when she saw the "Witch" card. She believed this rumor in her heart, and planned to ask casually in the next meeting. One sentence.

Among the original members of the Tarot Society, these things are already equivalent to common sense, but they haven't mentioned it to Adele specifically.

Not only Adele, but also the identities of the other members of the Tarot Society. After all, the Tarot Society is no longer a secret organization, but a semi-public church tacitly approved by the Orthodox Church.

Although the members above the gray mist maintain a tacit understanding and don't call each other by their real names, even the newly joined Adele can more or less infer the true identities of these members from their action reports.

As one of the four kings, "The Hermit" has such a resounding reputation that even if she wanted to hide it, she couldn't hide it.

"The Hanged Man" is the second most famous in the Extraordinary circle, but Adele had a devout Storm believer as a neighbor before, and learned from him that the archbishop of the Church of Storms went out to become the Pope of the Church of Sea God.

As for Miss Audrey... She didn't intend to hide it from Adele from the beginning, anyway, she is a dream weaver, even if Adele wants to leak the secret, can she leak it?

"The Sun" is not well-known, but he serves in the Church of the Fool after all, and his physical characteristics are so obvious that Adele knows the identity of this half-giant even if she doesn't think about it deliberately.

"Moon" Emlyn and "Star" Leonard are currently colleagues with Adele. Even if Adele has never met "Star", the identity of the other boss can always be figured out .

The identity of "Judgment" is relatively mysterious, and it is not obvious, but during the Tarot Club, she once said that she also worked as a bounty hunter in Backlund... As an assassin, Adele, who was active in the East District The Extraordinary people in the world also have some understanding.

As for why it could be seen that the other party was Xio... The gray fog can only cover the facial features, but the figure is still very obvious.

It can't be a child laborer of the Tarot Society...

In contrast, the most mysterious person in the Tarot Club is Miss "Magician" who disappeared from the very beginning...

Adele suddenly discovered that although Miss Magician said that she had written some collections of novels telling the stories of Mister "World" at the beginning, those were all under pseudonyms, which made Adele not know her real identity.

Turning her mind back to the daily notes, Adele directly skipped the main text, and found that there were coloring pages at the back, and there were dozens of pages.

However, after just one glance, Adele's eyes froze instantly.

The colored pages at the back of the text seem to be some photos of Roselle's manuscripts, which are treated as documents, and about 80% of them are Roselle's symbols!
This can't be... Roselle's notes, right?

Adele felt that her breathing was a bit heavy, so she quickly flipped through the pages, and found that there were more than 20 pages recording the symbols "invented" by Roselle.

Different from those copied by later generations in Adele's collection and deliberately written for the research of occultists, these are photos of the original manuscripts, and the amount of information is very large.

Originally, Adele didn't know about these things, and just collected some Russell's diaries out of respect for Russell, but now from time to time, she has Wendy, a traveler from ancient times, by her side. Although she still kept this secret during the Tarot meeting, it didn't stop her from taking it to Wendy for translation in private.

"I just have to find a way to avoid Constantine..."

Adele frowned. It was not easy, because Constantine was full of unrestrained enthusiasm unique to people from the Southern Continent. Even Wendy, who knew nothing about love, was completely fascinated by him. Now the two seem to be the same For the flies stuck together by the salad dressing, they always stick together, making a sweet and greasy buzzing sound.

Forget it, that's all for the future, let's talk about it later...

Adele put this matter aside for the time being, walked out of the treasure house in the bilge, asked Tracy to re-seal the bilge, and then called a sailor to inform the chef of the "Snow Wind" that tonight's Celebrate as usual.

……

At the same time, on the reflection star.

A banquet is also being held here—however, compared with the banquet that took place on Earth, this one is obviously more high-end and closer to a miracle.

The gray and black church disappeared entirely, replaced by a huge banquet hall of white marble.

The red curtains, the shiny intarsia floor, the tables set among the green columns, and the white tablecloths shining with gold, silver, and glass.

On the raised platform was a long table, about a hundred feet long, from one end of the hall to the other, and the rest of the tables were arranged in rows at right angles to the raised platform.

Two resplendent and resplendent giant chandeliers hang down from the high red-gold ceiling, and countless frosted glass round lamps on the chandeliers shine brightly.There are also gorgeously decorated wall lamps shining on the walls.

All the servants walking around the banquet were invisible servants. Some of them served with wine vessels made of gold, and some of them danced in light gauze skirts, surrounded by Antigonus who was seated on the main seat. , Amon and Fors three people.

This atmosphere made Fors feel rather uncomfortable. Although she had attended many noble balls in Loen, the atmosphere there was completely different from the banquet held by Antigonus.

——Over there, all people are nobles, and at worst they are friends of nobles; but here, she is probably the only one who can be called a "person", sitting with two angels tremblingly, carrying out Activities that have become meaningless to them.

Fortunately, eating and drinking are not what they really care about, and this banquet is just an attitude of Antigonus.

In their eyes, what they really care about is the things above the sequence.

"Tell me how you've been doing all these years."

Amon still had that slightly frivolous smile on his face, and his tone was casual, as if he was just asking what the other party had for breakfast today.

"..."

Antigonus thought for a while, "How should I put it...Actually, I should have reminded the next 'Fool' not to accept the gift of the 'Wishing Lamp', especially not to accept the 'miracle' offered by him. Teacher' characteristics, but since you are here, it means that the current 'fools' are not as stupid as you said."

"Maybe what you see now is just my deception."

The smile on Amon's face was still bright, but Fors looked like Amon's mouth was stiff.

"You say it is, so it is."

Antigonus nodded nonchalantly, "But I don't need to compete with you for the position of 'Lord of Mysteries' now, and there is no other use for you to deceive me, but it will waste your time listening to the story."

Amon smiled and sighed: "Okay, you won, let's continue."

Hearing this, Antigonus' eyes were a little dazed.He recalled for a while, and said:
"Before I was detained by the Evernight Goddess into the Hornakis Mountains, I actually made a series of attempts using my half-fool's ability to reverse my past and future, and creating this projection was only part of it."

"At that time, I grasped part of the fool's authority, fully realized the disaster we were about to face, and began to seriously think about whether I could deal with this disaster even if I became a real 'fool'."

"So your answer is 'can't'?"

Amon's expression was rather playful, as if he had a morbid interest in seeing others admit his shortcomings.

"Whether it's a 'fool' 'graft' or your 'mistake', there needs to be some kind of connection between the two, a similarity."

Antigonus stroked the wolf-like thick black short hair on his cheek, showing off a bit in his indifferent expression.

"I need new power, but most of the authority I can obtain through normal means is in the hands of others. And at this time, I discovered the 'Magic Lamp of Wishing'."

When Antigonus said this, he showed a rare smile:

"By the way, I haven't told you yet, have I? In that lamp, the consciousness of the 'Children of Chaos' is sealed; and this planet is the embodiment of the authority of the 'Son of Chaos', that is, the kingdom of disorder." '."

"The Heavenly Venerate from the beginning was really a terrifying character... A powerful outer god like the Son of Chaos can be pulled out of the seal by him."

"'Mother Tree of Desire' and 'Fallen Mother Goddess' will more or less affect the pathways corresponding to some of the source quality you have mastered, but only the two pathways of 'Dark Emperor' and 'Judger' belong to the 'Children of Chaos' Exceptions...that's the best proof."

Antigonus pointed to the center of his brow, where there was a golden symbol that Forsi had never seen before, similar to the combination of the "Sword of Judgment" of the Loen royal family and the "Crown of Thorns" of the Intis royal family. product.

"And if I want the authority of the Son of Chaos, I have to create similarities between myself and the Son of Chaos."

"If I want to accommodate the authority of the 'Children of Chaos', then I need to connect the 'Magic Lamp of Wishing' with my authority. The method is also very simple."

Antigonus slowly grinned, making Fors feel a little scary for no reason.

"The 'Magic Wishing Lamp' you saw is no longer the one that was originally sealed by the 'Lord of Mysteries'..."

"Because, the original 'Wishing Lamp' has been accommodated by me."
