Mystery: Undead don't die from passing fire

Chapter 181 Tarot Club

Monday afternoon, January 1350, 1.

The sky outside the window was gloomy, but there was no fog that Klein was familiar with. The waves came in waves, blowing away all the haze, allowing the high-altitude clouds to roll up and arrange into various shapes, reflecting the golden-red sun.

This is Pritz Harbor, the largest and busiest port in the Kingdom of Loen.

Klein, who was wearing a light-colored vest and a white shirt, stood by the window and stared at the outside world for a while. He didn't return to the table made of mahogany until urged by his pocket watch.Standing by the warm fireplace, he picked up a dark black round-bellied absorbent pen, unfolded the letter paper, and slowly wrote a letter to Mr. Ards.

There is a light yellow ID card on the table, which is necessary for purchasing ocean-going ferry tickets through formal channels.

For this reason, he specifically went to Sharon, and obtained a new identity through the other party's circle.This identity belongs to a bounty hunter, a lunatic who wants to venture out to sea in order to get rich. According to Klein, his name is Gehrman Sparrow.

After writing the letter, Klein immediately closed the curtains, took four steps backwards, and entered above the gray mist.

At this time, there was still some time before the Tarot meeting, so Klein quickly dug out the 'squirming hunger' and tried to release the 'faceless man' who was imprisoned by it.

Not only to fulfill the promise I made to these imprisoned innocent souls, but also to obtain some information, such as mermaids.

But unfortunately, the answer given by the 'Faceless Man' is basically the same as the information he obtained from other sources-except for those raised by the Church of the Goddess of the Night, only those who sailed from the Gargas Islands to the depths of the Sonia Sea at least a week.

The unlucky "faceless man" ventured out to sea just to chase the mermaid, but unfortunately died in the hands of "Hurricane Admiral" Qilingus.

"The Church of Evernight."

Klein tapped the table lightly with his fingers, but gave up on this tempting choice after a long time.

Although it would not be so troublesome to go out to sea to find the Church of the Evernight, and there is Ember to match the bridge, the Church of the Evernight should not refuse.But firstly, he didn't want to owe Ember any more favors, and secondly, there was one thing Klein never wanted to understand, and that was what role the Church of Evernight played in the 'Dark Emperor' incident.

On the other hand, judging from Ember's attitude, he himself doesn't even have that much trust in the Church of Evernight.And Klein, you personally experienced being invaded by the goddess above the gray mist, which caused Klein to always be wary of the Church of Evernight.

The Tranquility Church is the headquarters of the Evernight Church!He, the 'cult leader', ran over, wasn't that a self-inflicted trap?
Although overseas mermaids have to be found by themselves, at least they already have a relatively precise target and location, so it may not be too difficult.

The only problem is that this 'fool' of myself seems to have been exposed to many beings, who knows if they will suddenly come to the door?

"Let's take one step at a time."

The corners of Klein's eyes twitched, he sighed, took out his pocket watch, and opened it to take a look.

Seeing that the time was about the same, he first sent a message to the little 'sun' who was in the land abandoned by the gods and couldn't accurately tell the time to prepare for the party.

However, at this moment, his eyes noticed a crimson star, which was shrinking and expanding one after another, not by much, but persistently.

Klein hesitated for a moment, a little hesitant.

As a newborn 'god', his 'existence' is actually quite secretive.

The original members 'Justice', 'The Hanged Man' and 'Sun' were all pulled into the fog by him unintentionally, only the embers were contacted by him, and the remaining 'Judgment' and 'Magician' Miss is based on Ember's introduction, which has also caused his esteemed name to be spread only in a small range.

And Klein himself also strives to keep a low profile, not wanting to expose this 'cult' to the eyes of the major churches.So all along, he has never actively asked members of the Tarot Society to spread his beliefs for him.

However, when the little 'Sun' intersected with the members of the exploration team who were polluted by the 'True Creator', he held a sacrificial ceremony and recited the name of 'The Fool', which led to the exposure of this name to 'Amon ' and 'True Creator'.

Until here, everything is normal, and the spread is still not wide.

However, for some unknown purpose, the lunatics of the "Aurora Society" actually used the clues of the title of "The Fool" to search for the traces of the "Fool". Everyone knows it, and the Extraordinary of the three major churches are no exception.

Although most people know that they cannot pray to a strange god, but there are some people who are not afraid of death insist on praying to him.This caused Klein to hear the prayers quite frequently recently. In order to avoid missing their prayers for 'justice', Klein had to go above the gray mist to listen every time.As a result, most of the time, they were trivial matters, which undoubtedly annoyed Klein.

Klein still sighed, carefully unfolded his spirituality, and spread towards the crimson.As soon as the two came into contact, there was a buzz in his mind, and he saw a blurred and distorted picture——

It was a brown-haired teenager with his knees on the ground, wearing tight black clothing, which was completely different from the fashion trend of the Loen Kingdom, and also different from the Feysac Empire, Intis Republic and other foreign countries that Klein saw in magazines. There is a big difference in traditional clothing.

The environment around him was dim, and the tables and chairs were old. They were illuminated by flashes of light from time to time, but Klein couldn't hear the sound of thunder roaring or rain dripping.

In the picture, the young man clasped his hands against his forehead, bowed his body forward, and was praying constantly. His thick voice buzzed in Klein's ears:

"A fool who does not belong to this era;"

"You are the mysterious master above the gray fog;"

"You are the king of yellow and black in charge of good luck."

"I am your faithful servant, I beg you to listen, there are traitors who want to murder you by your side!"
-
Backlund North District, Saint Samuel Church, in a quiet room.

One of the thirteen archbishops of the Church of the Evernight Goddess, the head of the Backlund Diocese, Saint Anthony Stevenson looked at the figure that suddenly appeared in front of him, and gradually revealed a smile on his face, as if he was not surprised by his appearance.

Ember looked at the old man with a beardless face, deep eyes but a gentle smile on his face, and asked in a calm tone:
"The Black Emperor is dead, does the goddess have any new instructions?"

Archbishop Anthony shook his head lightly:

"Your Honorable One, in fact, I haven't received an oracle from the goddess for a long time, and all the oracles are conveyed by Her Royal Highness Arianna. As for the Black Emperor, it was never an instruction to Your Honorable One, it was just a reminder. If Your Excellency is at a loss as to the direction to go next, maybe I can give you a suggestion."

Anthony paused for a moment, and then slowly said, "If Your Excellency has already chosen the path, then no matter whether it is right or wrong, the best choice is to keep going and see what the end of the path is."
-
"Traitor..."

A famous saying subconsciously emerged in Klein's mind:

There are always bad people trying to harm me!
The corners of Klein's eyes twitched slightly, feeling quite outrageous, because the scene of praying in front of him was quite familiar to Klein!

Isn't this exactly the scene when the little 'sun' prayed to himself?
Whether it's the clothes on the opponent's body or the environment they are in, it can prove that the opponent's location is the City of Silver. Even the boy's age and hair color are almost exactly the same as Little Sun!
But here comes the problem, the crimson star represented by the little sun is not this one at all!

He just sent a message to Little Sun, so it is impossible to make a mistake.

But the problem is, even Little Sun's prayer was just an accident, how did the boy in front of him find him?
Although Little Sun is innocent, it does not mean that he has a low IQ. With his honest personality, he will never reveal his honorable name casually!
Even if the young man in front of him is Little Sun's twin brother, Little Sun will definitely ask 'The Fool' for his opinion first.

What's more, Little Sun has no twin brothers at all, and his parents have long since passed away.

So here comes the question, where did the boy who was praying to him get the honorable title of 'The Fool'?
This is not a problem that is difficult to reason about. Under the circumstances that it is impossible for Little Sun to take the initiative to reveal it, there are only two people in the "Land Abandoned by God" who know this honorable name—one is Amon, and the other is the real creator.

The True Creator has spread his venerable name throughout Backlund, but no believer of the True Creator has ever prayed to him.This shows that this evil god is still quite particular, and what is happening now is obviously not his doing.

Then, there is only one possibility left:
Amon.

"That is to say, Amon found someone who was very similar to Little Sun in terms of hair color, hairstyle, figure, and age to pray to me? Did he think that I would mistake him for Little Sun and pull him away? Into the gray mist?"

"If I really do this, then Amon can use this young man as a springboard to invade above the gray mist again."

Klein's expression twitched slightly. Does he look like a fool in Amon's mind because he is a majestic 'fool'?

If he could even admit that Little Sun was wrong, he deserved to be invaded by Amon.

Klein resolutely withdrew his spirituality and cut off the prayer scene without hesitation.

No matter what Amon wants to do, he will never let the other party succeed.

As for the person who was labeled as a 'traitor' by Amon, it is not difficult to guess, it is undoubtedly Ember.

Of course, this baseless slander was directly ignored by Klein.Because in Klein's mind, Amon is the biggest treacherous minister, thinking about invading above the gray mist all the time.And the purpose of this prayer is ready to come out - Amon wants to provoke the relationship between him and Ember.

Although it is not a day or two for the embers to burn themselves, isn't it still burning?

Klein felt that he was still very open-minded, as long as the embers didn't really burn himself, then they would still be good friends.

Well, although Ember may deny the friend 'The Fool'...

Shaking his head, Klein put all these thoughts behind him, and formally started gathering members to start this Tarot Club.

The figures of the members of the Tarot Society emerged one after another, and the girl's crisp greeting sounded in their ears:

"Good afternoon, Mister Fool."

Neither 'The Hanged Man' nor Fors were surprised by this, it has become their customary practice for Miss 'Justice' to say hello to the dishes in the Tarot meeting.The first must be the master of the Tarot Club, Mr. Fool, and the second must also be Mr. Lover.

But unexpectedly, this time there was an accident.

Audrey did not rush to say hello to the 'lover', but bowed solemnly to the 'world':
"Good afternoon, Mr. World, thank you for your help. If it weren't for your information, we might not have stopped this disaster in time, which would have caused at least tens of thousands of people in Backlund to die! Of course, I also thank you for your help, Mister Fool."

"In fact, this also saved me." Klein manipulated "The World" with a hoarse laugh.

Except for the person involved, everyone else in the Tarot Club was a little confused, full of questions:

"Who am I? Where am I? What happened in Backlund? What are they talking about?"

"This lady."

Emlyn White, who had just joined the Tarot Club, couldn't help asking: "What are you talking about? What kind of disaster? How could tens of thousands of people die?"

He has always lived in Backlund, but he didn't notice any major incidents happened in Backlund at all!
'The Fool' introduced with a smile:
"This is a new member, Mr. Moon."

"This is Miss Justice."

I thought the one who chose the moon card would be a lady... Audrey thought about it with relief, and politely said:

"Good afternoon, Mister Moon. Please ask questions later, now is Mister Fool's time."

She turned to look at 'The Fool' and added:
"Mr. Fool, I'm sorry, because the three major churches and the military are cleaning Backlund, I haven't been able to get the follow-up Roselle's diary, please wait for another week."

Hearing the conversation between the two, Forsi woke up suddenly, looked at the top of the long bronze table and said:
"Dear Mister Fool, I have received three pages of Roselle's diary."

Undoubtedly, Miss 'Magician', who is backed by the Abraham family, has become better than blue, replacing Miss 'Justice' as his most stable provider of Roselle's diary, which is very good!Klein was in a good mood, nodded slightly and said:

"very good."

Roselle's diary? 'Moon' Emlyn felt as if he had heard something extraordinary again.

Under his puzzled gaze, Forsi manifested three pages of diary and passed them to Mister Fool.

The first page was not very nutritious, but it also let Klein know that the 'hunter' path is in Sequence 4, and women will change their sex into men-this is exactly the opposite of the witch sequence. Denatured at sequence 7.

Klein thought about it, and turned the diary to the second page:

"On May [-]th, that unspeakable organization once again convened a gathering of members.

"I'm blown away every time by the way they assemble the members, it's a miracle, no, a miracle.

"After the previous observations, I raised some questions at this gathering. For example, all the names of Sequence 0 on the blasphemy slate have enough characters. Only the red priest is unique and not tall enough. The old gentleman sitting next to me told me , red refers to the red of war, and the priest can be understood as the priest of the essence of power.

"It was objected to him that the priests of the Red Priest were priests of the original Creator.

"I tend to be the former, so I asked the old gentleman's name in a low voice. I don't know the identity of every member here, and to say the least, I even only know a part of them.

"The old gentleman answered me with a smile. He said his name was Hermes."
