Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

Chapter 163 It's just the master's order

Looking at the petite doll that appeared at an unknown time, but was alive and well-spoken, Edsaac and Triss froze in place for a moment, and a great fear gripped their minds.

"you……"

Edesak opened his mouth with difficulty, slowly lowered his usually proud head, and said in a low voice, "Which existence are you?"

"You can call me Witch Lena."

Edsaac's pupils shrank sharply: "Witch?"

Triss's slender body trembled slightly, resisting the fear in her heart and asking:
"What is your relationship with the Witch Sect?"

The petite doll glanced at her and said calmly:
"The witch sect believes in the original witch, whose real name is Chick, and we are enemies."

To be precise, she and all the gods in this world are enemies.

"Chick!"

Looking at the petite doll in front of her, who seemed to have no threat at all, the goosebumps on Triss' body surface raised uncontrollably, with distinct grains and accompanied by cold sweat.Her lips moved, but she couldn't make a sound, and there was a bit of indescribable fear on her face.

So, that's why he was renamed Triss Cheek?Is he his divine vessel? ——
Saint Samuel Church, in a quiet room.

Audrey slowly opened her eyes, and Mister Fool's joking voice still echoed in her mind!
She subconsciously looked at the embers on the side, her expression control instantly lost control, and she said worriedly:

"Embers, what should we do now?"

Audrey believed that the other party had also received a message from Mister Fool.

Ember shook her head, continued the topic just now, and asked:

"So, don't you think it's all too coincidental?"

Audrey was stunned for two seconds, and finally realized how 'coincidence' the current situation is!
Knowing that hypnosis might be discovered, the other party still chose to take the risk of hypnotizing her father.If Mister Fool and Ember were not involved, she would definitely find a way to ask for help from the Church of Evernight.And even with the participation of 'The Fool', under Hibbert's suggestion, they came to the Church of Evernight by 'coincidence'.

It was about an earl, a faithful follower of the Church of Evernight, and Archbishop St. Anthony certainly did not dare to neglect.So of course he chose to take action himself to solve the crisis on Earl Hall.But just after he left, Audrey discovered that there was a bigger crisis brewing behind the scenes. ,

And Archbishop St. Anthony has already set off, although it is not difficult for a demigod to solve the troubles of Earl Hall.But no one knows whether he will be entangled by some "accidents".And the Church of Evernight, which lost the Archbishop of St. Anthony, will also be leaderless, and will no longer be able to respond in a timely manner.

All of this is too coincidental, the coincidence is not like a coincidence, it seems inevitable!It was as if there was an invisible hand manipulating everything in the dark, plucking the strings of fate.Audrey almost immediately thought of the organization mentioned by the 'Fool' - the Twilight Hermit Society.

This is what they often do, interfering with the progress of history to make it meet their own needs, so as to complete their goals at a certain point.And right now, it may be one of the nodes selected by them!
"And the purpose of these 'coincidences'..."

Audrey subconsciously looked up at Ember, but found that his expression was extremely calm, as if he had expected all this.Of course he knew there was something wrong with the 'coincidence' behind all this, but he wanted to know where the limit of this 'coincidence' was, and what was the other party's purpose for creating these 'coincidences'.
-
With the help of Mr. Azik, Klein could have escaped smoothly.But due to the interference of Ince Zangwill, he fell into the underground ruins where he is now.

Fortunately, he has been promoted to the 'Faceless Man'. By passing the news and searching for the fake Ince Zangwill, Klein, with the help of divination, overcame the interference of the "Master Key" and ran all the way to the revelation. away from the exit location.

He cautiously did not choose to go through the main entrance, but used the 'master key' to pass through the wall and came to a spacious hall.There are neat but mottled gray stone slabs under the feet, and there are thick pillars in front of it. In the center, there are four hooded figures kneeling around what looks like an altar.

Immediately afterwards, a soft but low female voice entered Klein's ears:

"Mr. A, are you ready?"
-
Ember groped her chin, and suddenly asked curiously:
"If Archbishop Anthony were here, how do you think he would respond?"

Audrey calmed down and calmly analyzed:
"If it's Archbishop St. Anthony... No, even Archbishop St. Anthony is only a demigod. When it comes to an evil god who may come into the world at any time, even a demigod can hardly play a key role, and it is too late to ask the church for help. .But there are still many powerful sealed items in the church, and Archbishop St. Anthony may use a '0'-level sealed item!"

With the help of Mister 'The Hanged Man', she had been trying to catch up on this knowledge for a while.Know that even in the major churches, '0' level sealed items are very dangerous, have the highest priority, the highest level of secrecy, no inquires, no rumors, no description, no prying.It is said that they are some terrible items that can destroy the country and even the world, corresponding to angels and above!

It is difficult for a demigod to resist the arrival of an evil god, but after all, it is not the evil god itself, and a sealed item of 'angel level' should be able to handle it.

But unfortunately, Archbishop 'St Anthony' is not in St Samuel's Church at all now!And it can be expected that he will be held back by a large number of surprises.Besides him, no one has the authority to use a level '0' sealed item, not even the favored Ember.

After all, only a very small number of people in the Evernight Church know that he is a favored one.If he wants to use the '0' level sealed item, he still needs to explain his identity to those Nighthawks first.And in this process, 'coincidence' will also play a role, and the accompanying 'misunderstanding' will undoubtedly greatly slow down the time!
So the only way to solve the problem at the moment is for Ember to act personally, and this may be exactly what the people who planned all this want to see.

"Audrey."

Ember pondered for two seconds and asked, "Can you pray to an existence for me?"

Audrey nodded without hesitation, and didn't even ask if the being that Ember spoke of was as friendly as 'The Fool', because she believed that Ember would not harm herself.

Ember quickly wrote down the corresponding honorable name on the paper, and Audrey recited in a low voice in Hermes without any hesitation:

"The Holy Spirit who pursues knowledge;

a lighthouse in a mysterious world;
peep into the eyes of fate;
king over the sea;
Holy Bernadette Gustave. "

"I beg your help..."
-
"Mr. A? Mr. A from the Aurora Society?"

When Klein heard the address from that female voice, his expression moved slightly.He possessed the Black Emperor card, and he also knew that the royal family was digging the underground ruins to secretly prepare the ceremony for King George III to be promoted to the Black Emperor.And the underground ruins where he is now is likely to be one of them!

And right now, it can be confirmed that Ince Zangwill is also cooperating with the royal family, and even the Witch Sect and the Aurora Order are cooperating with the royal family!
Klein knew that Ember had been inquiring about this information. Although Ember did not plan to wait for George III to become the Dark Emperor before confronting him with a "dignified" one-on-one, but planned to start ahead of time, Klein also felt that he had to do more for Ember. Gather some intel.

After all, it's all here, so you can't just leave without doing anything, right?
What's more, hasn't the other party discovered him yet?No one has anything to worry about.

Thinking of this, Klein, who was planning to slowly move to the door along the walls and shadows, shrank back silently.

The soft and melodious voice before said with a low laugh:

"You don't seem to trust us enough?"

"Yes." Mr. A responded unceremoniously.

"Hehe, then let me describe our purpose frankly and why we asked you to cooperate."

The soft female voice said without anger, "We have done some things and left certain traces. Before being discovered by the night, the storm, the church of steam and the military, we must do corresponding removal, and this requires you to provide help."

"You sent me to the East District, and I was responsible for setting the fire, and you can use this opportunity to expand the trend, create a channel or a container, and let your Lord come to the world. And the only price you pay is to bear all the Notoriety, maximum hatred from the military and the three churches, but I don't think you'll mind."

There was silence in the hall for a few seconds. Mr. A did not respond for a long time, as if he was thinking about the feasibility of this plan.

And the owner of that soft female voice was not in a hurry to urge her, because she was not worried that Mr. A would refuse, after all, no matter how you looked at it, this matter would be of great benefit to the Aurora Society.It is a good thing for these lunatics to have a bad name on their backs, otherwise they would not have done so many appalling things.

After a long time, Mr. A nodded slowly, and replied without any ups and downs:
"can."

Wearing a hood, a transparent and blurry book quickly appeared in front of him, accompanied by a distant and ethereal chant:

"I came, I saw, I recorded."

The book flipped quickly, and it froze on one page, which immediately burst into light blue and illusory light.The light enveloped the desperate lady in the pure white robe, making her figure blurred and then invisible.
-
In the Red Rose Manor, Prince Edsac sat by the floor-to-ceiling windows, and outside the windows was the warm sunshine.

Although Backlund is shrouded in fog all year round, this is the outskirts of Queens District, away from the factory area and St. George District that produce 'fog'.So here you can enjoy plenty of sunshine, which makes people feel very comfortable.

"Your Highness, please hurry up."

A voice sounded beside him.

Edsack turned his head to look at the person who made the sound. His gray hair was neatly combed, and he was wearing a butler uniform that was so straight that there was no wrinkle. It was his butler Finkel.

Before that, he had always been his best, most loyal, and most highly valued subordinate, and he would always faithfully execute any of his orders.And never ask why.But now, it is precisely this loyal old butler who is forcing him to go on the road.

Edsack laughed at himself, but his most valued subordinate had never been loyal to him. He was only carrying out the king's orders from beginning to end.On the surface, he was obedient to him, and he was heartbroken, but in fact he was just monitoring himself and making him decent at critical moments.If he is unwilling to be decent, the other party will not mind helping him to be decent.And Edesak has no doubts about this, a Sequence 5 Extraordinary definitely has this qualification.

And the fate of the person Finkel once served, the former third prince of the Loen Kingdom, has long been doomed——

How ironic does it sound to cooperate with the Witch Sect secretly, and finally commit suicide in fear of sin?
"Finkle."

Edesak whispered, "How many years have you been with me? Over 20 years, right? You hugged me when I was young, and I have always regarded you as my elder..."

"His Royal Highness Prince."

Finkel's expression was extremely indifferent, and he said calmly, "That's just an order from His Majesty."

He calmly approached Edsack and picked up the revolver on the table.He could see that Edesak, who was still trying to play the card of warmth, had obviously lost the decency that a prince should have, and at this time, he, a servant, was needed to help him be decency.

"Huh~"

Edsack laughed at himself, his smile was full of sarcasm and mockery.As much for Finkel as it is for himself.

Descendant of the founder and protector, the descendant of the powerful, the fifth child of His Majesty the King, the Earl of Rustin, His Royal Highness Prince Edsaac Augustus... This series of titles that once made him extremely proud are now But it became a complete joke, as if invisible slaps slapped him hard on the face, shattering all his pride.

"puff!"

The bright red blood gushed out of his body and splashed on Edesak's face. The warm, sticky, and slightly sweet touch made Edesak tilt his head weakly, his eyes gradually dimmed .

"Pfft~"

A lot of blood spewed out of Finkel's mouth. He lowered his head with difficulty, and saw a huge long sword that pierced through his chest and divided him in half directly from the middle. The blood had completely soaked his meticulous butler uniform, dripping The bloody lower body fell to the ground weakly.Relying on the powerful vitality of the Extraordinary, only the upper part of his body 'sitting upright' on the sword body is still alive, and he still has a breath.

In front of him was Edesak who had stood up from his chair and held a strangely shaped bell in his hand.

"I gave you a chance."

Edsack stood in front of Finkel, his eyes darkened, and he said in a low voice, "It's you who don't know how to cherish."

Edsack has always felt that Roselle's words are right, people are not grass, how can they be ruthless?But the reality is often so ruthless. He misses Finkel's old love, but he doesn't appreciate it at all.

And all this...

"It's all because of my damn father!"

The corners of Edsaac's mouth curled up a little bit, revealing a broken and distorted smile, with his hands open in a hug, his face obsessed, "Power! This is what it feels like to have power! Finkel, do you feel it?"

Finkel said nothing, because his life had already passed.

But Edsack seemed unaware, staring obsessively at the tall figure who killed Finkel in front of him.It was a knight who was much taller than ordinary people, wearing solid red full body armor, holding a big sword thicker than normal people's waist in one hand, and holding a huge oval shield in the other hand. Equipped with huge curved horns representing the Horn of Aspects of the Forge!

He still remembered the title given to him by the one who bestowed on him——

"Knight of the Furnace!"
