Mystery: Those years when I was a foreign aid for the Aurora Club

Chapter 112 Send!
302
Edward Vaughan's words "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun" chanted in ancient Hermetic language caused some fluctuations in the gray fog. Klein looked around vigilantly, and immediately grabbed the "Dark Emperor" card and the sun brooch. In his hands, he was afraid that something unexpected would happen suddenly.

But it seems that the eternal gray mist has no other abnormalities except for the acceleration of flow and the appearance of some swirling waves. It is very likely that it is just a conditioned reflex triggered by this name.

After the dream divination, feeling that the mystic connection was completely disconnected, Klein took a few breaths with lingering fear.

It's not once or twice that the divination object was caught on the spot, and Mr. Edward didn't babble or burn him as firewood, but just chanted a few words of the honorable name of "The Fool"... How did he know? ...Yes, the Aurora Society obtained my honorable name through "Little Sun", and has issued rewards in various secret gatherings. It is not surprising for him to know this matter...

The connection has been disconnected, so there should be no worries.Recalling the horrifying divination scene just now, Klein hissed, feeling that it would be a pity not to be able to pull the other party into the Tarot.

After pretending to be a "god" for a long time, she is somewhat arrogant and face-saving.

But in the situation where there is no guarantee that the other party will be unfavorable to you, it is better not to take the risk of pretending to be a ghost in front of the angel.

Anyway, he doesn't dare to do the divination again now that "Edward Vaughan will be bad for him". Think about it differently, if he is suddenly seen twice in a row by an indescribable high-ranking being on the road, how much will Klein himself have? A little baffling and angry.

Turning his mind, he disappeared above the gray mist.

But as soon as his front feet disappeared, the gray mist vibrated on his back feet. Things like vines and roots slowly climbed up to the corner of the gray mist like creepers. It caused a strong reaction from the gray mist, but then the power of deceit flashed, and the disconnected mystic connection was forcibly connected, and the unknown authority triggered a weak "possibility" caused by Klein's reckless behavior, entangled in the The root system and the gray mist on the source castle created a seesaw, gradually stabilized, intertwined and twisted with each other, forming a hollow with a twisted light arc on the edge, like an eye.

After the hole lasted for a few seconds, it spread out again, and then a black silhouette appeared on Origin Castle. It was sometimes twisted, with curved horns and wings, and sometimes turned into a strip-shaped object and a huge hole. It was still impossible to completely leave the blockade of gray fog and step into Origin Castle.

Soon, the uninvited guests noticed the best way, and the black shadow began to shrink towards the center, with a clear head and body appearing, and a layer of mystic concepts from the old world fell, enveloping the twisted and wriggling mass A collection of vines, so the black shadow has the outline of a person in an instant.At the same time, someone used the ability to deceive again, gradually calming down the endlessly boiling gray mist, and acknowledging the intruder.

The mist parted.

The Decaying King opened his eyes, stared straight ahead for a while, and then turned around the sticker eyeballs that don't have visual functions but are used to camouflage human beings, and looked up and down here pretendingly.

His hanging hands clenched and opened.After seeing the long bronze table not far away, his pupilless eyes narrowed slightly.

Something moved under the ground-length cloak, and a crow with white eye circles got out of it, and fell to the ground to look like Amon.He turned his head. Unlike the virtual personality Adam, it was the first time he saw the human shell of the Outer God who had never understood the concept of "banyan tree".

In order to better deceive Origin Castle, He now looks almost the same as a human being, with clear divisions of limbs, pale and reserved, but feeds on the struggle of all things, bringing death to all life in the universe equally.The pitch-black scorched bones are His crown, entwined with withered flower branches, and the cracks are overflowing with blood that cannot be wiped away. It is as bright red as flowing lava, and this is also the brightest and clearest color on His body.

The root system turned into pale long hair with deep black tips, which fell on his shoulders and behind him in a little mess. The creature struggled upwards, trying to grab the hand of hope, which was the piping embroidered with gold thread on the cloak of his floor-sweeping cloak.

But these are all very vague, as if there is no finely carved statue, the simple white color blocks smear the cheeks, there are oval eye sockets and eyeballs that symbolize the eyes, but there is no nose, and the mouth is a straight line.The dark color blocks scribbled out the scope of the body. He is like an oil painting human figure whose outline is simply smeared with a brush, and the details cannot be seen.

Walking in the relevant source quality of Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun, without carrying a "scepter", the decaying king feels a little uncomfortable.

However, it has been confirmed that the person who peeped at him just now is not Tianzun, and these insignificant details only flashed in his mind.

He didn't move.The concept of native plants and a human-like shell reduced repulsion as he intended, but also became his straitjacket.After standing for several seconds, he slowly raised his hand and took a step, feeling a lot of resistance in every movement.From Amon's point of view, he seemed to be walking in the water, and it couldn't cause too much water waves.

Amon, who realized that he and the Outer God had boarded the Origin Castle in the state of spirit bodies, turned around a few times curiously, feeling very fresh about this source quality that had been missing for thousands of years.As one of the ways to master Origin Castle, it is impossible to say that there is no idea, but the Outer God stood by and looked at him coolly. He didn't want to take responsibility and fate at first, and Amon, who didn't have enough strength, of course preferred Impossible to take the opportunity to make a connection.

"Don't worry, I don't have that sense of responsibility." He said jokingly, "What are you going to do now?"

The king of decay answered him with action.He took steps towards the direction of the long bronze table, and a little withered breath followed closely at his feet, leaving fleeting gray and black marks on the illusory ground.

Outer God took his time and came to the table with 22 chairs step by step. He lowered his eyes and glanced across the chairs with path marks on the back of some of them. Door” and the high-backed chair marked with the “Fool” path for a few more seconds.

He didn't say anything, and finally looked at a card placed in front of "The Fool", and his spiritual intuition told him that it was the Black Emperor.

"It's really interesting..." He whispered to himself.

Amon, who was wandering around on Origin Castle, also found new fun. He found that in the corner of this simple and solemn temple, there was actually a pile of debris blocked by gray fog, and there were clothes and various low-order items in a mess. Among the extraordinary items, a brass-colored key with a special aura caught his attention.He took the key to show the Outer God, and unexpectedly received a sneer and a compliment from the Outer God.

"Have you confirmed the identity of the person just now?"

"Ah."

Following the other party's guidance, Amon's eyes fell on the "Fool" seat at the top of the long table. Combined with various doubts about a certain fortune-teller, he turned into an emoji of "Amon was shocked and cracked".

There was a stack of Tarot cards in the corner of the table. The Decayed King took it over, shuffled the cards a few times, and then drew one out of it:
"Justice" card.

He showed no expression, put it aside without any surprise, and took another one:
"Devil" card.

The ferocious and terrifying demon often has a pleasant voice, and lures people to become his slaves with money and so-called security.

Under the control of demons, people lose empathy, and what occupies their hearts is completely naked primitive desires.Man becomes selfish and greedy in pursuit of money, denying any other purpose in life, but when life ends, these substances no longer have any meaning.

Amon, who was still in a split state, was also aroused when he saw this. He directly stole one from the middle and read aloud: "Lover card?"

"Its reverse interpretation is very consistent with Amon's characteristics."

Outer God took back the three cards, put them back into a stack of Tarot cards, and put them back in place exactly: "It symbolizes self-awareness and temptation, and the inversion represents failure, unsteadiness, infidelity, and self-pity. Self-pity."

"I'm quite unwilling to accept criticism on behalf of Ontology."

The Decayed King put his hand on the long bronze table, trying to read the memory it carried from the inanimate object.But this place is source quality, and the long table is not a stable and normal object. All he can see is a foggy picture, a few blurred figures, and even the basic characteristics of the owners of these seats. Can't see clearly.The only thing that caught his attention was that there was something at the end of the long table. It seemed to be a person, but it was actually a hypocritical illusion created by extraordinary items.

The King of Decay didn't think about why this thing existed, but he found the corresponding item from the debris pile: an all-black eye polluted by the spirituality of the real creator, Seer Path Sequence 5.

"Master Key", "Dark Emperor Card", Klein asked him how to remove the pollution from magical items...

All the clues are right on.

He raised his head, looked at this source, analyzed its possible efficacy and role, and soon realized something.He walked slowly to an empty chair and sat down.The mist on the top behind the high-back chair surged rapidly, first showing the empty land and half-withered plants, and then turning into a ruined city wrapped in layers of branches and vines, the two emblems flashed back and forth several times , and finally settled on the latter.

It seems that this is the way to "establish contact with Origin Castle correctly" on the premise that it does not belong to the three ways of mystery. It should not be like this, but it has materialized according to Klein's idea... The Declining King did not look back, but He saw the changes behind him and thought about it.In this way, even if the connection has been successfully established, as long as he further stabilizes the connection, he can make the connection "the possibility of boarding Origin Castle again".

He got up and let the emblem slowly disappear.

While the decaying king was meditating, Amon seemed to have found something new suddenly, pointing to the depths of Origin Castle and said:

"There are several steps in there."

"There's nothing there, I didn't see it." Outer God replied flatly, "It should be something left by Tianzun, only you can see it. Now that you have seen it, then go up and walk."

...Amon pinched his monocle with a forced smile, walked towards the depths of the gray fog, stopped in a certain open space, looked up, and said: "There are six steps here..." After finishing speaking , he made a movement of stepping upstairs, and then disappeared from the spot in an instant.

The King of Decay took a look, but did not see the Worm of Time falling.

After about a minute, Amon suddenly appeared there again intact, with an expression of distress and confusion.He returned to the Outer God in three steps and two steps, and said while recalling: "The top...is wonderful."

"I saw a hall with many light cocoons hanging on the roof. There are many souls in it. These souls are all dressed in wonderful clothes. This style reminds me of Antigonus and Zaratul. Could it be that their hobbies Is it also affected by the top of the pathway?"

"There are three cocoons, no, four cocoons have been broken, and the inside is empty. I don't know where the people inside have gone."

Four souls... One is in my hands, and the other two are Roselle and Klein. The ancient sun god is the backhand of God, so who is the other person? There is no information at all for so long, could it be? Die before being famous?The Outer God flashed this idea into the ocean of thinking, and immediately had two conjectures: "Maybe he is indeed dead" and "Maybe the lack of intelligence itself is a kind of intelligence".But this matter is not important, at least not for the time being.

Looking at the thoughtful expression of the Outer God, Amon decided to go back and find a way to obtain some information about the era before the First Era.

"Should we go now?"

"Ah."

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Yeah." The repulsion became stronger, and the color blocks that made up the body began to fluctuate violently. The Outer God said concisely, "Go visit the Fool."

303
Inside Minsk Street 15.

Klein waited anxiously for more than an hour, but found that nothing strange happened. The tables and chairs did not attack him suddenly, and no demon came out to chase him.It seems that because my divination was not malicious (purely curiosity and accident), it did not activate Mr. Edward's crisis intuition that belongs to the devil. Naturally, he was not prepared in advance like Beria, or used the connection to find himself directly.

After all, the gray mist can even block the eyes of gods!
Perhaps Mr. Edward just felt that someone was spying on him, so he looked at him, but he didn't see clearly who was watching him...

He heaved a sigh of relief. It was almost seven o'clock, and Klein found that his stomach was growling with hunger, and he couldn't help but miss Angel's craftsmanship.

Klein thought bitterly.At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, and he jumped up from the sofa in shock.

who is it?Klein hurried to the door, and the moment he grabbed the doorknob, his spiritual intuition had already sketched out the appearance of the visitor outside:
It was Edward Vaughn.

Klein almost jumped up. He was discovered by someone who was divination just now, and now he is approached by the other party. There is nothing more guilty than a guilty conscience.

...But He should have no reason to think that I'm the one spying on Him. After all, I'm just an ordinary Sequence 7, and I haven't even found the materials to upgrade the potion... I think the biggest possibility is that He came to talk to me about demons Regarding Beria's matter, after all, I was the one who told him the news at first, and now the matter has been resolved... Should it?I hope so... Feeling like I’ve been hesitating for a long time, Klein regretted not putting up the do-not-disturb sign, while turning the doorknob muttering, using the strength of a clown to pretend nothing happened, "surprised" Looking at the visitor outside the door:
"Mr. Edward? What do you want from me?"

The angel of the abyss smiled peacefully: "It's okay, it's about Beria. Your information has allowed me to benefit from this matter. I don't want to owe others, so I only have time to visit now."

it is as expected.Klein let go of his hanging heart, and turned sideways to make room for him: "Come in and talk? I'll go prepare tea."

"No, I have other things to do. I'll come here and say a few words to you before leaving."

Edward took out his wallet, opened it, and took out a stack of banknotes. After thinking about it, he put the banknotes back and exchanged them for a check (Klein sharply saw that there was a thick stack of these in the other party's wallet. Check, shamefully lemoned), He said to Klein while searching:

"You have done me no small favor."

He didn't specify what the benefit was, and handed a check for five hundred pounds to Klein: "This is the reward."

After Klein accepted the check in surprise, he asked naturally: "By the way, a new evil god called 'The Fool' has been mentioned in many secret gatherings recently. Have you received any news or information?"

Why do you even ask me about this...!How many people is this already!Klein felt that his smile was going to be unstoppable, and he replied nonchalantly: "Sure enough, you also have relevant channels, and I have received similar news recently, but I don't know, this may be a new one, or an existing one. It’s just a disguise of the evil god.”

Edward nodded, showing no distrust or affirmation of the answer.He reached out and touched in his pocket, and casually threw something to Klein:

"This is also a reward."

"A copy of the Extraordinary characteristics of Sequence 7. The sequence is too low, I can't think of selling it, so I will give it to you as well."

"If you sell it, there will be at least [-] pounds. These rewards should be rich enough."

Extraordinary characteristics?The Tarot Club Exchange can open again!Klein easily caught the thing, and took a closer look at it. It was a palm-sized glass bottle, and the inside was chaotic and black.

There is also a label on the bottle: Church of Evernight-Nightmare-Soul.

Seeing these words, cold sweat suddenly climbed up Klein's back. Human instinct made him want to look up at Edward's expression, but his eyes and spirit were completely attracted by the purple-black mist in the bottle. Living.

The moment the mist landed on his hand, it began to spin and twist, revealing a human face.This face has a slightly higher hairline and deep gray eyes. In Klein's memory, this is funny, humorous, and has a bad memory. The face is serious but often shows a gentle smile. His eyes widened. Looking at him, eyes full of fear and sadness, he opened his mouth wide and silently shouted to the person holding the bottle over and over again:
run!
run! !

Run! ! !

Captain...Nightmare, Dunn Smith...Why, why are you here...Captain, you should sleep peacefully in the Goddess' Kingdom...Tingen descended...Demon...Demon! ! !
"You really know him, Klein Moretti."

"We actually met, didn't we? In Tingen, when the true Creator descended."

A voice like a demon chanting sounded above his head, and Klein's hands trembled violently. He didn't have the courage to raise his head. At this moment, all the caution and strength he had accumulated so far were swallowed up by bottomless fear and despair.

His eyes turned black, and his heart suddenly felt a sharp pain.

This is the power of the "Apostle of Desire"... Klein staggered back two steps, leaned weakly against the wall of the entrance, and slid down piece by piece, his eyes could no longer see anything.

I'm dying……

Died of the most common sudden heart failure without any trauma or suspicion, Angel's methods were much better than Jason Beria's.

Edward watched quietly as Klein died, still clutching the glass bottle tightly before he died.He stepped back, disappeared like a weightless shadow, and left No. 15 Minsk Street. The lights in the house went out one after another, and the wooden sign "Master is not here" automatically flew up and hung on the door closed by the wind.

He successfully bought Klein's life with five hundred pounds and the soul of Nightmare.

……

It was getting dark, and Sherlock still didn't come. Emlyn leaned against the wall with his arms folded in doubt, looking at the setting sun in the distance and his pocket watch from time to time.If the other party hadn't paid a thousand pounds in advance and made an appointment on his own initiative, he would have thought he had been let go.

Is Sherlock not coming?
Then what about the Extraordinary material he ordered?
I'll wait a little longer...
