On the third floor of the building, Klein woke up from a dream again due to his spiritual intuition, wishing he could catch the infiltrator who interrupted his sleep and feed it to "creeping hunger".

This time, he directly opened the iron cigarette case and released the "Resentful Soul" marionette.

Senior's figure in a dark red coat first walked into the full-length mirror, and then jumped onto the oriel window glass in the personal servant's room.

"He" stared at Richardson and saw the manservant turn over and sit up, looking at the door with fear and nervousness.

The door opened silently, and a figure flashed in.

Under the crimson moonlight, the infiltrator revealed a brownish-yellow complexion, a soft outline, and short black curly hair. He was obviously of the Balam race in the southern continent.

He stood at the door with a bit of cold air, looked at Richardson who was looking at him, and said in a deep voice:

"Have you considered it?
"Don't think that if you break away from us, you can get the peaceful life you want. You have the blood of Death God's people flowing in your body, and you are destined to give everything to restore the glory of God."

"Think about your dead mother, think about the bullying you have been subjected to, do you hope that your children will still grow up in the eyes of others' discrimination in the future, and will always be someone else's servant?"

"...But, what can I do..." Richardson said with difficulty, lowering his head.

"Waiting for your task." The infiltrator's voice softened a bit.

Richardson didn't answer whether it was good or not, and seemed to be struggling in his heart.

The infiltrator didn't care about his hesitation. When he had agreed, he turned around, exited the room, and left the same way.

"Reaper's people... spirits, people from the Reaper's Church?"

Since the restoration of the Balam Empire, there has been no restoration organization in Balam other than the Church of Death.

Klein, who had witnessed everything just now, lay on the bed, and said silently to himself: "Many people from the Southern Continent and people of mixed race seem to be behind the parades in recent days. What tasks will they ask Richardson to do? Steal My money, providing funds to the organization? Or creating a terrorist incident at a high-class banquet?"

While he was thinking, the helpful neighbor Miss Hazel Macht appeared from the shadows and knocked the intruder to the ground with a punch.

This... Klein was taken aback.

Then, Hazel, who succeeded in one blow, waved her fist excitedly a few times, and then rang the doorbell of Dawn Dantès' house.

Klein watched all this silently. Before the steward arrived, he controlled the infiltrator who had fainted at the door to leave, and asked them about their purpose and the organization they belonged to—a subordinate of the Church of Death , a small organization active in Backlund, the Black Skull Party.

Soon, the invaders who had turned into secret puppets returned the same way and blew up the stronghold of the "Black Skull Party", leaving no survivors.

Mr. Dawn Dantès was finally able to continue to sleep peacefully.

But I don't know if it was his illusion, he seemed to feel that everything around him was darker than before, except for the gas lights on the road, everything seemed to be immersed in pure black shadow.

……

May 5th, Backlund time, three o'clock in the afternoon.

"...That's how it happened. The Lord came to us and said these words to us, and then she left, taking away the shadow of the Land Abandoned by God..." During the Tarot meeting, Derrick said vividly Telling everything that happened before, his eloquence has been greatly improved in the Tarot Club, and the story itself is shocking enough, a few words can bring everyone into the experience he described, "... ...Now, although there is still no sunshine in the Land Abandoned by God, the shadows are no longer dangerous..."

The members of the Tarot Society looked at each other. They knew that the greatest danger in the Land Abandoned by God was the treacherous and terrifying darkness. As long as the light disappeared, people would disappear in absolute darkness. In such an environment, living The difficulty of coming down has been increased by more than a hundred times.

And the gods of faith descended on the earth, announcing to them that salvation was just ahead, and even took away the terrifying darkness in the Land Abandoned by God—such a mythical and epic picture made everyone's imagination run wild.

"That is to say, the City of Silver no longer needs to light candles at all times?" Audrey couldn't help asking this question out of curiosity.

The "sun" who seemed to be much more relaxed than usual shook his head:

"The Land Abandoned by God still has dangerous darkness, but those dangers will not only make people disappear, but also make monsters disappear."

"The shadow that just makes people disappear is gone. In the City of Silver, we can try to sleep in a dark environment."

Audrey, whose curiosity was satisfied, said sincerely: "This is really great. Thank you for your answer, Mr. Sun."

After "Justice" finished asking, "The Hanged Man" couldn't help asking the question he was most concerned about:
"In addition to daily life, this should also be of great help to your hunting and exploration."

The implication is: Your exploration scope should be increased, right?The types of monsters to hunt should increase, right?Can some new species be added to the list of monsters around the City of Silver?
It seems that seeing the sheep start to moult, I can't help but want to touch it.

Derrick was just about to talk about this, so he immediately nodded and said:
"Yes, Mr. Hanged Man."

"I'm already a 'notary', and I can apply for a non-high-sequence Extraordinary item to participate in more explorations."

"The 'Six-member Council' has made a decision. Since the shadow is no longer dangerous, it is time to expand the scope of exploration, and continue along the opened 'Afternoon Town', go to the place where the main gaze comes from, and look for the place that can reach the God Abandoned. the way beyond the land."

He paused, with a hint of pride in his eyes:
"Although the Lord has said that 'salvation is on the way', the City of Silver supports the decision of the 'Council of Six', and we are willing to continue to explore outward spontaneously instead of blindly waiting for the arrival of 'salvation'."

When "salvation" was mentioned, Derrick looked in the direction of "The Fool" vaguely.

Of course, Klein also noticed the small movements of "Sun", or in fact, everyone is subconsciously linking "salvation" with Mister Fool, because it is Mr. The sun" was brought into their eyes, and he was equally helped by the Tarot Club's principle of equivalent exchange. Since the Creator said that "salvation is on the way", they naturally associated it in this way.

Therefore, The Fool himself had similar doubts in his heart.

"It has been confirmed that the ancient sun god believed by the City of Silver is the 'true creator'. She was damaged and degenerated for some reason, and somehow returned to normal, and began to give normal revelations to the Aurora Society and the Land Abandoned by God... …and tried to communicate with me."

But no matter how you say it, the black briquettes of the Aurora Society can't be washed clean at all, and they are so black that they fall off the scum.Standing with them would cause a normal person enormous psychological stress, let alone having to talk to their Lord.

Klein is actually not very willing to get closer to this fellow evil god, because if he has a good relationship with the Aurora Society, a lunatic like Mr. The name of "The Fool" will be made public, and tomorrow he may directly announce in a secret gathering that "Kline Moretti is my lord's envoy". A dead man suddenly becomes an important member of the Aurora Society, not only will he suffer, Both Benson and Melissa will suffer, and the church will definitely intervene.

"The goodwill of the true creator" is the same as "Origin Castle", which is a hot potato, not to mention the former is even hotter at present.

however……

From his observations, the Church of the Seven Gods' exploration of the Land Abandoned by the Gods so far is still limited to "collecting legends", and the Aurora Society knows much more than them.If no one else was also secretly contacting the Land Abandoned by God, the "salvation" mentioned by the real creator might really be him.

"Uh... a place like the City of Silver, if I have the ability, I will definitely provide a little help. The 'sun' has been here for a long time, but she said that 'salvation is on the way', so what does the real creator mean? Woolen cloth?"

"Aurora will have a route to the Land Abandoned by God..."

"Could it be that the True Creator wants me to bring out the people from the Land Abandoned by God?"

It's possible... Klein still finds it strange.

"It shouldn't be, she can go in and leave, why don't you rescue people along the way? Even if she thinks it's troublesome, the Aurora Society also has angels, war angel Medici, fate angel Ulorius... why are they Don't do it?"

He did not interfere with the heated discussions among the members of the Tarot Society, and fell into his own contemplation.

Suddenly, he thought of the information he had just read in Roselle's diary today:
"September [-]th, ever since I became an angel, I have a feeling that my personality has split. In my heart, in my spirit, in the depths of my spirit, there are always voices urging me, influencing me, creating With uncontrollable indifference, bloodthirsty, cruelty and madness.

"No wonder Mister 'Gate' says sanity is temporary and madness is eternal."

"On September 28th, I haven't written a diary for a long time. In the past half a month, I seemed to be watching myself being replaced by strangers a little bit, becoming cold and scary a little bit, even my daughter Bernadette Gives me a small amount of fatherly love, very little."

"Just when I was going crazy, I seemed to hear countless praises, those are my subjects, those are all the people who have benefited from my reforms, those are the believers who regard me as the 'son of steam' , are praising me, singing my praises, erecting statues for me, writing stories for me, creating poems for me.”

"Their voices were like the anchors of the ship, helping me 'locate' myself."

"I started to have the ability to fight that desire to fight that cry from the bottom of my heart, and I came out a little bit, and I was able to have the normal emotions of being a father, a husband, a man again."

"Just Sequence 2, there is such a change. When you reach Sequence 0 and reach the level of the true god, how terrifying is the madness you have to fight against?"

"Perhaps they also need 'positioning' to fight against the extraordinary characteristics and the strong tendency to lose control hidden in the depths of the collective subconscious."

"I probably understand why they want to establish a church, why they want to spread their faith, why they want to write chapters for the saints of their own power, and leave legends for the corresponding angels..."

anchor……

legend……

Klein resisted the urge to frown, and continued to think about it.

...If the true Creator is really suggesting that I save the City of Silver, then if I do it, the City of Silver will definitely thank me.

In the long-term help, the little "sun" has already shown signs of wavering in his faith. When he learned that the Creator was crazy, he was painful, confused, and worked harder to prevent himself from being stopped by this incident... …

Now, the true Creator has directly declared "don't believe in me", which is equivalent to cutting off the belief in the City of Silver with his own hands. According to the rules of the world, the City of Silver must believe in other gods...

Could it be that the true Creator wants...they come to believe in me?be my anchor?

Klein felt a little ridiculous.

From the idea to the practice, it is incredible. In the diary, Roselle only needs an anchor at Sequence 2, but now he is only at Sequence 5, and the true Creator is already considering this matter for him...

...It's kind of scary...

"From this week onwards, we will hold a routine confession ceremony every week, and gradually improve our work style?"

After reading the latest announcement, Mr. X frowned slightly, and turned his head to look at Z who was posting the announcement: "Repent what? Improve what?"

Z patted the last announcement on his hand, wiped his hands, and replied:
"Do you still remember Lord 'Black Saint'?"

"remember."

"Your Excellency 'Black Saint''s pilgrimage manuscripts have been sorted out, and I have allowed myself to transcribe and read them." Mr. Z saw that Mr. X might not have borrowed them, so he said, "He is accepting the test of the Lord at the end of the pilgrimage road. , baptism of sins, redemption of oneself, others have defeated the evil thoughts in their hearts one after another, but he and the evil thoughts have fallen into a stalemate, and he has lost contact for several months, and no news has been sent back."

"Ah."

"My lord, hang yourself upside down at the end of the world to atone for the sins of all living beings. Your Excellency the 'Black Saint' failed the test of evil thoughts, thinking that this was a sign of not being devout and firm enough, so the Lord issued a revelation to let each of us Repent diligently, repent the sins that you have avoided and do not want to recall, pray to the Lord, change your behavior, and keep learning from the great Lord, only in this way can you redeem your sins.”

Mr. X's brows slightly stretched: "Then what kind of sin do you want to confess?"

"All." Mr. Z said, "so everyone is actively studying law recently."

"Repentance is required for all illegal acts?" Mr. X's expression was horrified, "This...there is no way in this world that there are people who do not break the law at all! Besides, we are a secret organization!"

Mr. Z nodded indifferently: "But spiritual repentance is necessary, and it also helps to stabilize ourselves. The priests in the organization are no longer enough. It is a person's credit to open up a person. If you become a priest now, every There are more than 100 meritorious service at the end of the monthly guarantee."

"that's not what it means……"

Mr. Z, who didn't do many bad things, squinted his eyes: "Aren't you willing to repent?"

The surroundings suddenly became a little quieter.

In the Aurora Society, all believers who cannot act according to the oracle of the Lord at the first time are not pious enough. When the real creator decided to let the Aurora Society routinely repent every week, the real fanatics had already bought a house outside the confession room. The lesser ones have already begun to flog themselves to atone for their sins, and the lesser ones have chosen to surrender and send themselves to prison.

——Those who send themselves to prison belong to the pious but not very smart ones. How can you continue to dedicate yourself to the Lord after you are in it?
"My belief in the Lord is unwavering." Mr. X said, "Is there any specific requirement for repentance? I mean, what kind of behavior is required to show that you have repented?"

Mr. Z said: "Does this kind of thing still need to be stipulated in the charter? Spontaneously."

Mr. X breathed a sigh of relief, smiled and said, "I see."

He bypassed Mr. Z, walked out of the hall, and reached out to scratch his hair in some annoyance.

"Repent..." He muttered, thinking of some things, including his accomplice, "Go ask Botis."

If you want to talk about all kinds of big and small things all the time, they are nothing more than murder and arson, and robbing extraordinary items, and the most influential one is the "betrayal of the Abraham family" a long time ago.

"Do you have to confess to this kind of thing? The Abraham family has weakened like that, and the middle ranks are pitifully small, but they are trying to control us students with foreign surnames..." Louis Wayne shook his head, "If you don't betray them, How can I be promoted to 'Traveler', and how can Botis be promoted to 'Mystic Mage'? They can't save themselves demigods, so how can they give it to us. Even the sealed items that are willing to lend us are pitifully small, Guarding so many things and not using them, do you still want to take them into the grave together?"

"It's all about benefits, is there something wrong with that?"

He didn't take it seriously, then pulled up the black hood, put on the iconic mask, and disappeared into the shadows.
