Mystery: Good Witch

Chapter 638 "Tyrant"

This "blasphemous card" found on the body of a deceased person wearing a three-cornered hat and sprouting countless tentacles is the same as the "Witch", "Red Priest" and "Black Emperor" that Angel has seen, and is slightly smaller than a palm. , the front depicts a majestic figure wearing a huge crown on his head, holding his hands high, and surrounded by countless believers, surrounded by lightning, strong winds and waves.

This is Emperor Russell Gustav.

On the upper left side of him, on the edge of the card, there is an ancient Fussac text made of starlight, marking the path represented by this "blasphemous card".

Judging from the lightning used by the deceased in the tricorn hat, the tentacles growing on his body, and the sense of oppression given to everyone, it is not difficult to guess that the "tyrant" represents the "sailor" path, which is the complete potion owned by the Church of Storms. way.

No wonder Backlund's private detective Essinger privately called the "Punishers" and the fanatical believers of the Church of Storms "tyrants". This is also in line with their behavior. Even Sequence 0, the "Lord of the Storm" , which is equivalent to this title... Angel couldn't help but chuckled when he thought about the first time he heard this word, and looked at Alger, the "Hanged Man" who was also on the "Sailor" path.

The latter waited until the cursed black flames were completely extinguished and the entire tomb fell into darkness, then walked over from the gargoyle corpse that had fallen to the ground and turned into a pile of stones, and his eyes immediately locked on the "blasphemous card" in Angel's hand.

"Tyrant! Sure enough, Qilingos risked his life to enter Backlund alone to assassinate Duke Negan because of this 'blasphemy card'..."

Looking at the portrait of Emperor Russell, who looked like a god with a crown on his head, and the name of the potion that clearly pointed to the god he believed in, Alger felt that his breathing became heavier, as if a blazing fire was burning in his heart.

Once I get it, I can clear all the obstacles to high-sequence... Several dangerous thoughts suddenly popped up in his mind, but his long-term adventure at sea and his forbearance in the church made him calm down quickly. He forced himself to look away and looked at the three bodies still smoking.

"There was a lot of noise in the battle just now. We have to be careful of other powerful creatures being attracted. We should pack up the loot and leave as soon as possible."

After saying this, Alger himself felt a little ridiculous. Even the unknown creatures that almost petrified them did not dare to break into the ruins around this church. Who would be alarmed?

Calm down, Alger. As a trophy, I cannot participate in the distribution of the "Card of Blasphemy", but the formula above can be exchanged and purchased. Sooner or later, I can get it... He took a deep breath and felt his beating heart gradually recover. normal frequency.

Fortunately, the "Queen" and "The World" didn't notice anything unusual about him, and only regarded his hesitation as the sequelae of "fear of fire". One of them quickly checked other corners of the tomb, and one controlled the resentful spirits to possess them one by one and lost them again. Those who have passed away in life speed up the precipitation of their extraordinary characteristics.

"Is that the 'Blood Admiral'?"

Taking this opportunity, Alger saw clearly the appearance of Klein's marionette, and thought of the pirate general who disappeared after the battle outside Bayam City mentioned in the church's internal information, and silently lit a candle for him...

No, it’s better not to light the candles. What if the flammable gas accumulated in the underground tomb ignites and blows up the entire island!
Thinking of this, he felt that his heart that had just calmed down was about to jump out of his chest again. He hurriedly walked to the body of the dead gargoyle, picked up a scimitar and dug out the spiritual eyes and the core of the chest and abdomen, and used a bang The sound of cracking stones covered up his uneasiness.

Angel, who was quite aware of the negative effects, peeked at Alger's movements and laughed at him secretly. He also observed the other coffins that had not been opened, guessing whether there were some dead ones inside that did not develop characteristics, but instead became something like " An extraordinary person who was a living corpse" creature, but in the end he still didn't want to disturb these dead people and did not open the coffin for an autopsy.

Klein gained a lot. The possession of the "Wraith Spirit" can significantly accelerate the extraction of extraordinary characteristics. Within a few minutes, he harvested three complete extraordinary characteristics with different appearances, but all exuding the aura of gold pounds.

One of the pieces was as transparent as a jellyfish, with lightning streaking inside. It obviously belonged to the "Ocean Singer" wearing a three-cornered hat. The same characteristics were precipitated after Shatas passed away; one piece had roots and seemed to have blood vessels pulsing inside. The brown soil belongs to the Extraordinary who breathes yellow-green poisonous mist. Angel speculates that he has a certain connection with the "Earth Mother Goddess"; the last characteristic appearance is a purple hexagonal prism about the size of a thumb, with an indifferent eye without long eyelashes inside. , seems to be peeking into the outside world, it belongs to the old man wearing a white robe, with eyes on his exposed skin.

"This may be the extraordinary characteristic of the 'Peeper' path. I have seen this kind of eye shape... on Old Neil."

Klein held the hexagonal prism with his fingertips, his eyes seemed to be dyed a strange purple, and he suddenly spoke.

This familiar name immediately reminded Angel of what happened in the underground alchemy room of the Blackthorn Security Company. He pursed his lips and did not answer.

Old Neil, who is that... Alger, holding the gargoyle eyeball and core in his hand, came closer again, frowning and wanted to ask a question, but he quickly stopped himself after feeling the depressing atmosphere, and asked softly:

"Now, should we leave immediately, or..."

He felt in his heart that the harvest from this exploration was enough and even significantly exceeded expectations. It was the best choice to decisively stop and leave. Moreover, according to the prior agreement, he could not participate in the distribution of all the gains, so his desire to continue exploring was not strong.

But only Gehrman's "teleportation" can take me away. In the final analysis, I still have to listen to them... Alger smiled bitterly. When he saw the other party opening his mouth to answer, a long voice came from his ear.

"Hey……"

This sigh, which seemed to come from thousands of years ago, echoed in the circular tomb chamber with an indescribable vicissitude. The expressions of the three people changed drastically, and they looked at each other with surprise and confusion in their eyes.

The voice did not come from them, but from the "fourth person."

After analyzing this fact in her mind, a strong sense of crisis enveloped Angel. She reached out to grab Klein without hesitation, and invisible threads shot towards Alger like lightning, pulling him towards her. The speed sticks together. The "squirming hunger" on Klein's left hand became transparent, and its interior seemed to carry the rich colors of the spiritual world. The bodies of the three of them became illusory in the next moment, entering a world where direction and distance could not be distinguished.

After a few seconds of "running wildly", the "teleportation" effect ended. They stepped on the air and appeared between the moist clouds, with the unobstructed crimson moon above their heads and the endless black sea below.

Swah——

Alger reacted quickly and summoned a strong wind to blow upwards, supporting the bodies of the three of them. With one hand, he grasped the core and eyeballs of the gargoyle, and with the other hand, he released Angel's hand that was tightly held in his desperation, and pressed it on Klein's shoulder again. to avoid confusion when entering "Teleport" again.

The other two people had no time to pay attention to his movements. Instead, they looked diagonally downward amid the howling wind, towards the nameless island they were on before.

The sea area that had been shrouded in thick fog quickly became clear in the sight of the three people, as if an invisible hand pushed aside the thick fog, allowing the moonlight to shine unimpeded... on the sea.

The island that houses all kinds of powerful extraordinary creatures and hides the temple dedicated to the "Ancient Sun God" is missing!
Where there used to be an island, there was only black sea water, with a strange light flashing from time to time under the crimson moonlight.

"Just now... wasn't it a dream?"

Alger couldn't help but speak, his voice wavering in the howling wind, showing his inner confusion.

If I hadn't still held the trophy in my hand, I would have really thought that I was dreaming... He squeezed the gargoyle's hard and prickly core to confirm that he was still in the real world.

Klein felt the same way. He held Angel's palm tightly with one hand, reached for his pocket with the other hand, and counted the three extraordinary characteristics as if to confirm, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

If there was nothing in my pocket, I would probably lose control on the spot... He cursed a few words to relieve the tension in his heart, and did not dare to stay any longer. He activated his "teleportation" ability again, took the other two people into the spirit world, and headed towards Bayam. shuttle in the direction.

After several brief stays in the air, the three of them successfully returned to a desert island about 200 nautical miles away from Bayam. They let go of each other's hands and stood in a circle facing each other on the soft beach where waves were constantly blowing.

Only then did they confirm that the expedition ended successfully.

In fact, it didn’t go smoothly. How did the island disappear? Who did that sigh belong to? And if we didn’t teleport away decisively, would we disappear with the island and never appear in the world again?

Klein had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but he couldn't find a clue. He was about to say something when he heard Angel beside him say:
"I heard that voice just now..."

Just as he was about to summarize the adventure, Alger, who was trying to trade potion formulas, blurted out:

"what?"

Klein also looked at Angel.

Only then did he realize that the other party had not spoken since leaving the island, and the palm holding him was a little cold, but he had been immersed in thinking and did not notice it.

Feeling the concerned gazes of the two people, Angel smiled bitterly and continued:

"I met this man once on the outskirts of Bayam and had a brief conversation with him, so I remembered the voice..."

She paused, wondering whether to say the name.

“Whatever is spoken shall be known.”

This was a reminder from Mr. Fool, and she believed that that name must be included in the "unspeakable" list.

He might have been standing beside us just now, watching all the battles and actions, so what else is there to worry about...

The corners of his mouth twitched upwards, and Angel finally said the name:

"...He is one of the children of the Creator, the 'angel of fantasy', Adam."
