"Is only black tea okay?"

"No."

"Then there's only green tea." The True Creator said casually, took a sip happily, and deliberately turned on the fire, "Why don't you drink it?"

The humanoid creature sitting on the other side of the table looked up at him for two seconds: "Compared with the same kind, would you want to drink a cup of hot blood water soaked in the flesh and skin of animals? You might as well give me a bottle of vodka."

"Can trees drink alcohol?" The real Creator turned pale with shock, "If there is any, hurry up and bring me two bottles!"

"Then I suggest you drink industrial alcohol directly."

The declining king picked up the enamel jar with the most glorious labor printed on it with one hand, and blew on the boiling hot tea. His movements were skillful, and his posture and demeanor were very much like an old man walking in the park watching chess.He looked to be in his thirties, but exuded a lingering old aura.

Under the shocked gaze of the real Creator, He nonchalantly took a few mouthfuls of "hot blood soaked from the flesh and skin of animals", and smacked his lips by the way: "It's surprising? Plants are also predators, and they are not My kind, I can eat my kind."

The real creator showed a very interested look, and he was always extra energetic whenever talking about his native civilization.But the Declining King didn't stay long on this topic. He held the enamel jar with both hands, absorbed the heat of the tea through his palms, and the roots under the cloak coiled comfortably.

"Purple candy for afternoon tea? I also want cheesecake."

"Yes." He took another sip of green tea, "I saw the bouquet that Medici gave you this morning, it was just planed from my garden."

"Ah...then I let him plant it back?"

"I've already planted him, and I won't let him come out before the sun goes down. Since you have pulled out my flower, then come and be my flower."

The king of decay put down the enamel jar and counted Medici's sins in detail: "The great red angel has already added more than five hundred pounds to the Aurora Society's brilliant grades. Fight each other and destroy the facilities. When you go to participate in charity activities, you are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and then you destroy the facilities when you fight left and right. I said that if you really have nothing to do, go to the sewer. I don’t know why there are always people walking at night, and then He When fighting left and right, the sewer was blown up for at least 200 meters, and the gas pipeline was not blown up so that the entire Backlund ascended to heaven. The church of steam is still looking for the terrorist."

"...As expected of my war angel, as expected, when he came, he came with weapons." The real creator patron said to him, as if he was full of humanity but not full of martial arts, "what's your opinion?"

"Apologize. Lose money. Either Fabuti or the Bound God will appear on my table immediately." Outer God said, "This manor is still mine, you have to pay rent if you use this as a new stronghold. Also, please don't Do some extra pointless moves before our gamble comes to fruition, I hate you, the earth, and all the gods. I don't want to be friends with you, please don't break the peace we have now.

3000 pounds is really heartbreaking. I have been saving for so long, and I still have less than 1000 pounds... However, the "card of blasphemy" is a priceless treasure that cannot be exchanged for money. Miss "Justice" is in this matter The contribution is definitely worth the price...

Fortunately, it was all deducted from what she owed me, which relieved a little pressure. If I meet Mr. Azik in the future, I will use the high-sequence formula to pay the 15000 pounds that belong to the "Faithful One"... Others I don't know how the "card of blasphemy" was disguised. According to the emperor's character, it should be quite unexpected... Klein finished his response, looked at the gray mist ocean outside the palace, and sighed silently.

Being cautious, he temporarily left the "Dark Emperor" card on the gray mist, on the surface of the long bronze table facing the "Fool" seat, and the Azik copper whistle as well.

When he returned to the real world, he held a ceremony again, summoning himself, throwing away the "Master Key", a combination of lost and unlucky. After reaching above the gray fog, I plan to use it for nothing.

The "Master Key" is just a relic of an unlucky guy who has just been promoted to Sequence 9, and it actually has such a negative influence that even mid-sequence Extraordinary people can't weaken... Mr. "Gate"'s ravings are really terrifying...

Klein took a shower with much cooler water, walked out of the bathroom refreshed, and went downstairs to enjoy the corn tortillas he bought along the way. This is a specialty of the highland area of ​​the Fenepot Kingdom. It is crispy and fragrant. and sweet.

After eating and drinking enough, he pondered the experience of last night to see if there were any clues left for others: "Even if you hold the 'Master Key', if you are not an Extraordinary, you can't escape under the hands of a demon. A mysterious and powerful Ms. Bernadette must have confirmed that I am not an ordinary private detective, and I never thought I could hide this."

"She didn't take me away, which means that she is either an official who has a certain affection for wild Extraordinary, or she doesn't belong to the three major churches or the military. Well, I tend to the latter point, and the former will most likely confiscate the 'Almighty' The key', hey, I was a little desperate at the time, thinking that I would be captured and disappeared. Who knows, she just left like that. Even better, thanks to the meticulous camouflage I made before going out from the morning, She didn't notice that I was the inconspicuous person in the Russell exhibition who was dizzy and almost vomited after she glanced at it."

"I don't need to worry about that devil dog anymore. When I met Mr. Edward, the little devil met the big devil."

"As for the things in the museum, they are looking for a special spirit body, a strange existence, what does it have to do with me, Sherlock Moriarty?" Klein teased himself, and his heart became more and more stable.

Of course, he dared to go home because of divination in advance, just like he was not afraid of a completely unsolvable trap in the museum.

Huh, this matter is over... What are you doing today?To practice extraordinary ability, by the way, go to the Kragg Club for a meal?Well, I don't know what happened to the devil dog. Will the church and the government continue to investigate?Do you want to write another letter to Isengard Stanton, just to give you a little reminder?
While his thoughts were tossing, Klein heard someone approaching and moving away from outside.Another letter?He opened the door suspiciously, and sure enough, he saw a letter lying in the letter box.

This letter is from Isengard Stanton.

Back in the house, Klein opened the envelope with a letter opener, and carefully read the letter from the detective to him.Essinger first reported the good news in the letter, saying that with Klein's help, he successfully found an important clue, but he did not clearly state the suspect's information, but vaguely mentioned a ferocious black dog whose owner died in a gang fire .It seems to suspect that Sherlock is also a Extraordinary, and has already seen the truth of the serial murders in advance.

Klein felt relieved and wrote back to Essinger.It seems that this matter has finally come to an end, and then just wait for the money to be collected.

The bounty for the devil dog is two thousand pounds, and I can get some of it no matter what.But if I guessed correctly, the decisive force that got the devil dog caught should be Edward Vaughan. It seems that I am a bit ashamed of taking the bounty. Maybe I should inform the other party, and maybe share some of the bounty I got with the other party. , As for whether angels can't see these vulgar money, it's another matter.Edward was capable, but he didn't take the initiative to arrest the devil dog. Instead, he let it kill dozens of people in Backlund. Klein selectively ignored it.

Klein had already thought about today's arrangements. When the Extraordinary party couldn't be held and the corresponding items couldn't be bought, he suddenly became free and didn't need to be busy for a while.

"Go to the Kragg Club in the morning, practice guns, practice extraordinary abilities, and have lunch there, then find a better circus, watch the magician's performance, and see if you can get some inspiration." He took out a gold-cased pocket watch After taking a look, he boarded the public carriage in a good mood.

At the Kragg Club, Klein met Dr. Allen who complained about his recent bad luck and sought some mystic help.

Maria stared at the mournful man in front of her.

In the office, everyone heard her speak without emotion: "You betrayed Dr. Black to the Church of Storms?"

"He saved your life! Your whole family's life!"

"When you were lying at home with a broken leg, and your wife and children were starving to death, he healed you for free!"

"how dare you!"

She shouted and asked extremely sharply, and broke the man's inner defense in an instant.The last bit of pretentious guilt on the man's face disappeared without a trace, his legs were weak, and he argued for himself tremblingly: "I, I have no choice but to! I am a believer in the great Lord of Storms, but the pastor of the church The adults actually came to my house to investigate abnormal elements! Someone must have reported me! It was someone who thought that my broken leg could not be cured, so they thought there was something wrong with me! Maybe, maybe it was someone from the other half of the room who reported me. Jealous of how much I earn! It's not my fault, no, no, I was wrong, I was wrong Miss Maria, my son is only five years old, I..."

"To shut up."

"People in the church told me that if the report is true, you can get a reward of 20 pounds. Do you think I don't know your little thoughts?"

Maria didn't respond to his cries: "You betrayed your benefactor for personal gain, there is no grace. You want to change your name and move to escape responsibility, it is immoral... We will not give you any more assistance, either leave the East District, or Starve to death here after spending 20 pounds."

"No, Miss Maria! I really have to!"

The man turned pale with fright, and reached out to grab Maria's clothes: "My son is only five years old, and my wife just lost her job. I can't live without a job!"

"Poor Doctor Black, you actually saved such a bastard back then." Maria avoided his hand in disgust, and was stingy to give him another look.Seeing that the conversation was over, several other people walked forward in silence, and lifted the man who was still begging on the ground collapsed.Maria clenched her fists tightly, suppressing the anger in her heart and the desire to smash something somewhere. After suppressing it for a moment, this intense emotion turned into helplessness.Her eyes looked away, knowing the answer, she couldn't help but say: "Is there really no way to save him..."

"He is the only doctor in our East District who is willing to treat workers! The healing priest we found with great difficulty!"

"Miss Maria, there is no other way." A dark blue-haired man standing by the door said sadly, "It is useless to ask us for help. The current policy of the Aurora Society is to shrink its power and secretly expand the scope of charity activities. It’s fine if it’s the Little Storm Church, but he was caught in the Holy Wind Cathedral... No one has the right to use so much power!”

"So, we have to give up on him, can't we?"

long silence.

After a long time, other people in the office pushed the door and left silently one by one, leaving Maria alone.After a long time, the sun gradually set, the sky darkened, and she was silent in the darker room.

"Miss Maria." Ademisor knocked on the door and came in, lit a candle, his face was a little ugly, "There is another person from Kapin's side."

Maria's arm trembled violently.She raised her head, eyes bloodshot with anger.

"Tell him to go back, and leave your fingers if you don't." She slowly straightened her upper body, and once again put on the serious and cruel temperament she had cultivated over the years, her voice was full of undeniable majesty, "I Charity schools aren't for their disgusting maggots, and I won't sell out any of my girls or kids until I'm dead!"

Ademisor was not surprised by this answer. He nodded emphatically and left the room, leaving behind the candles and candlesticks.

Maria took a deep breath, time and situation did not allow her to be sentimental.Since she decided to devote herself to charity activities and follow in the leader's footsteps, she has encountered such powerless situations countless times.No money, no power, no useful contacts, no right to speak... It is impossible to give children a better education, and only to euthanize critically ill patients in charity hospitals in their dreams. Adding even one more bed, even knowing the culprit who kidnapped and trafficked young girls would not get them punished...but she could never get used to this sense of despair and frustration.

How much power can you gain if you sell your soul to another leader?How many more people can be saved?
I'm too weak...

*The bet between two evil gods who know the world, you know and I know, bet on the fate of this world and the choice of human beings.

*The teaching of the Pilgrim Sect is "Life is a pilgrimage to accumulate pain and happiness, and life is a journey from birth to death."Don't endure the pain of being alive, don't look forward to the happiness after death, but cherish the time you are alive and bring beauty with your own hands.Pain and happiness coexist in life, and the two leaders represent the most intuitive good and evil in the universal sense.Richard, who is good in order, and Edward, who is chaotic and evil, they also symbolize the status quo within the sect: bad money drives out good money, factories for the sake of workers are crushed, and good people cannot survive because of their kindness.In order to do good, they must learn to be cruel, cruel, and even evil.

This may seem to be putting the cart before the horse, but it is sadly true.

The crowd was attracted by Richard's personality charm and condensed together, but when they encountered irresistible violence, or were severely tortured by the world until they were physically and mentally exhausted, the angel could not protect himself, and his belief was crushed by reality. Another leader ( Devil) became the final destination.
