Lord of the Mysteries

"The City of Generosity" Bayam, a rental house with a gas wall light.

Verdu Abraham, wearing rimmed glasses, was holding a stack of thick materials, and was not too bright, reading carefully, and writing a symbol from time to time to record what would feel useful.

He left Ruhn and came to the Rhodes Islands. The main purpose was to get rid of the sight of Dorian and other family members, to study mystery with peace of mind, and to find an effective way to save the ancestor Bethel Abraham, or to reduce the difficulty of that ceremony. Reliable knowledge.

However, more than half a year later, he still has no clue. It seems that he has no other choice but to hunt for "spell mage", "parasite" and "secret mage".

This made Verdu quite frustrated, but he was soberly aware of how dangerous the "0" seal was, and even if he was willing to sacrifice, he could not really control it, and it was difficult to guarantee what the final result would look like.

What's more important is that he couldn't find the "spellmaster" and "parasite" at all. These are saints who are famous for their hidden and strange style.

Huh ... Verdu put down the stack of information in his hand and said to himself almost silently:

"Can it only be like the Dorian them, relying on that foolish one?"

Thinking of the "Fool", Verdu couldn't help frowning, because more and more half-giants propagating the "Fool" faith in the city of Byam, so much that he, a less-out-going person, heard about it.

This made him wonder if he had come near the headquarters of the "Fool" church.

If the mysterious knowledge spread secretly in the Rhodes Islands is beyond Verdu's expectations, and many are not mastered by the Abraham family, it is extremely useful. He would leave Bayam a month ago to go to the South Continent.

"Can't stay any longer, book a boat ticket to Dongbairam as soon as possible ..." Verdu had just made a decision in his heart, and there was a shake, "Dorian and the 'Fool's Church should have thought of me hiding in their headquarters. In the area that can be radiated, Emperor Russell once said that the most dangerous places are the safest places ... "

In hesitation, Verdu set the information, turned off the wall lamp, and walked to the bedroom with the moonlight outside the window.

At the corner of the balcony of his room, a figure suddenly emerged from the darkness and jumped over the fence.

This figure is like a feather, fluttering lightly and without weight. When it fell from the height of more than ten meters to the ground, it did not create any movement.

Immediately afterwards, the silhouette sneaked along the street to the neighborhood of Poseidon Church and boarded the bell tower.

Then, "He" took out a pen and paper, and brushed a report tonight's monitoring situation, stuffed into a gap.

When the figure departed, about a quarter of an hour later, the whistle of wind suddenly sounded on the bell tower.

The report was pulled out of the gap by the invisible hand, and flew up and down to the distance in the strong wind blowing here, like a bat spreading its wings in the night.

It didn't take long for the report to fall like a stone, and it fell to a palm that protruded from a dark place in the garden.

This hand belongs to Cardinal Alger Wilson of the Church of the Storm.

He immediately started the report and read it carefully at night, without any trouble caused by insufficient light.

——Alger can see the surroundings clearly even in the deep sea without light.

"Vildu's idea of ​​leaving Bayam is getting clearer ..." Alger slightly nodded invisibly and concluded in his heart.

For more than half a year, he has been monitoring the member of the Abraham family as instructed by the "Fool", but he has never noticed any unusual behavior from the other side.

By the time Virduo departs from the Rhodes Islands, his mission is complete.

However, Alger didn't want to end like this, he thought that he hadn't made enough contributions yet, but simply monitored a sequence 7 that was nothing special.

—— "Hidden Man" has obtained the extraordinary characteristics of Sequence 3 from "Mysterious Queen", and has collected the corresponding auxiliary materials, and is busy preparing for the ceremony. This puts a lot of psychological pressure on Alger. Of course, in addition to monitoring Verdu, he also did a lot of things in accordance with the intentions of the "Fool", but even he felt that there was still a big gap between his identity, personality, and strength.

For a moment, Alger tried to indirectly persecute Verdu Abraham in various ways to expose him to his own problems, but he finally gave up the idea because he could not be sure that Mr. Fool had held that goal. Some are well-intentioned or malicious.

——When Silver City and Moon City sold extraordinary traits and potion formulas, Alger purchased some from the Tarot Club to cultivate those who were independent of the Storm Church, loyal to him and hidden in the dark. This is where the team that monitors Verdu came from.

At present, most of these teams with less than ten members are in Sequence 9, and only a small number are promoted to Sequence 8.

As for where Alger's money comes from for extraordinary properties and potion formulas, the answer is very simple:

As a cardinal who presided over a parish, Alger could casually "save" a sum of money to spend for himself, compared to the time before when the minerals, plantations, spice estates and factories in the Rhodes Islands were low. Selling at the price of its own value, as long as you have the strength to buy, you can make a lot of money after a while.

More importantly, the headquarters of the Church of the Storm also has a lot of interest in the extraordinary properties and potion formulas sold in Silver City and Moon City, providing a large amount of money for purchase. As for the passers-by, there is no doubt that it was Cardinal Alger Wilson of the Parish of Roth, and some loss in the similar process is inevitable and understandable.

Withdrawing his thoughts, Alger decided to use his shadow guard to sell some occult knowledge in some of the extraordinary circles of Byam to catch Verdu Abraham and delay as long as he could.

"The main reason is that the mission in Silver City scared the gentleman ..." Alger shook his head and said to himself in his heart.

He immediately destroyed the report in his hand and walked back inside the church.

…………

At dawn, a young man walked out of the hotel and leisurely admired the early morning scenery of Byam.

He had just bought a "Teana" drink in a fruit shell from a hawker, and suddenly felt a large shadow appearing beside him.

The young man turned his head, looked up a little, and found that a half-giant approaching two and a half meters came over.

"Sir, can you take up your time? I want to tell you about our beacon and Savior, Mr." Fool "." The half giant bent down and tried to make his smile look kind.

The young man sipped "Teana", pointed to the side, and nodded with a smile:

"Okay, but don't be here."

He immediately walked to the place where he didn't block others, and the seemingly oppressive half-giant followed gently.

"You can talk." The young man didn't hide his curiosity at all.

The tall half-giant expression became somber:

"My Lord calls himself 'Fool.' In the past, now and in the future, he is the great master who dominates the spiritual world, the king of yellow and black who is in charge of good fortune, and the symbol of the eternal pursuit of every soul.

"I live above the realm and the spiritual realm, and kindness fills the kingdom and the earth. Six angels stand by his seat ...

"'Mercury Angel' is the incarnation of destiny, the most beloved angel of my Lord; 'Death Angel' is the longest existence that has followed my Lord, is the Archon of the Underworld; 'Redemption Angel' is the horn of my Lord, his God Your messenger; the "Angel of Life" is the crystallization of wisdom, the indelible spirituality in every human being. "

Hearing here, the young man laughed:

"Your Lord is so amazing, there are so many title angels serving."

"Not only." The half-giant replied gently, "there is also a 'punishment angel' next to the Lord's throne. He is the Lord's thunder, the Lord's anger, the palm of the Lord, the judge and executioner of all fallen and unclean people. .

"The opposite of the" Retribution Angel "is the" Angel of Time ". He was the" king "of ancient times. He eventually surrendered to our Lord and struck the bell of heaven for him."

"Great, amazing." The young man sighed heartily.

Hearing such a response, the half-giant could not help but smile, and then described in short words as concisely the miracles that Mr. Fool had descended, and finally said:

"It's been a quarter of an hour and you won't waste your time. If you are interested, you can go to the 'Fool's Church' at 16 Phillips Street to learn more. This is our largest church in Bayam. And others are still planning. "

The young man nodded:

"If I have time, I'll take a look."

After watching the half-giant turn away, the young man smiled and took out a crystal-polished monocle from his pocket and put it on his right eye.

…………

The half-giant went all the way back to the restaurant and changed into a chef's suit.

"Badell, are you going to preach again?" The restaurant owner asked with a smile.

When the industry association recommended this half-giant to learn cooking, he still resisted. He always felt that he could kill himself by throwing his arm casually, and he didn't look like a talent with cooking skills.

But now, he is very satisfied with Badr. The half-giant is not only honest, obedient, and able to endure hardships, but also has a strong deterrent force, so that the villains on the street will not dare to make restaurant ideas.

The only problem is that Badr will go out once every morning to preach the "Fool" faith.

Of course, since this is not during working hours, the restaurant owner can't say anything and doesn't mind.

Bader smiled kindly, walked into the back kitchen, and said to his Moon City friend Bonn:

"I can teach you how to make grilled fish today."

Bonn looked more normal, but his two eyes looked awkward at first sight. They belonged to the type of Yuecheng who had the courage to communicate with outsiders. He nodded:

"I have to wait and pray first. Mr. 'Fool' lowers the shrine and asks all Moontowners to make a wish to him at nine this morning, hoping that there will be no abnormalities."
