"The Ernst Foundation?"

Edward thought for a while: "I'm not familiar with it. I haven't paid attention to it, and what I can know is about the same as what you can find. There are also some secret knowledge, which may not be accessible to you now."

"Is this Foundation connected to a hidden existence?"

"Yes. A charitable organization that has been established for 200 years, no matter what, there will be some hidden help behind it..." Edward squinted his eyes, watching Amon take a wing tip from Klein's table, and then flew from under the table. On his side, he stuffed a wallet into his hand.

Out of politeness, Edward didn't pinch the wallet to test the thickness, but put it on the chair next to him pretending nothing happened, and flicked Amon's brains, and flipped the little pointed hat and Amon away together go out.

He organized the language, and then replied: "If it's other news, I can tell you some... For example, their purpose is to break through the south wall and never look back, and the corporate culture is to tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall and be poor. "

Klein unconsciously felt a sympathy for his fellow sufferers.Then he thought of Maria's one thousand pounds for hiring him, which was considered a huge sum of money wherever he put it.At least it wouldn't make the person in charge wear patched clothes, especially a young woman... The foundation is so short of money, yet it spends such a large sum of money to ask someone to help save people from Capin, Klein is getting more and more frustrated. I can't see through the thoughts of these people, I just feel heavy in my heart, and the words turn into silent silence when they reach my mouth.

"They do not accept any form of capital injection or investment, and only accept fixed noble donations and material assistance."

"This is why they are all poor. If you ask this, you should see Maria. The leader of the foundation has done his best to maintain the operation of the organization, and the rest can only be relied on by the people in charge. For example, Mary Leah grew up in the Eastern District, she is good at drilling, smart and ruthless."

In this era, the church and the state have the power to suppress almost everything, not to mention the gods who live in the sky and are indestructible.

All people can do is parade, demonstrate, and at most use the threat of the evil god to get better treatment for themselves... Klein is a little confused, and as a time traveler, he can see these things.Could it be that the locals of the Foundation can't see it? If they can see it, why don't they choose to assist the church... Huh? Mr. Edward didn't say who or which gods they are under, could it be?
Klein couldn't help asking: "Which gods does the foundation believe in?"

Edward took a bite of the sweet cake, ate half of it himself, and gave the other half to Amon.By the way, he helped Amon put on the hat he had picked up. After organizing his words, he slowly said, "Wherever they are, believe in any god."

"?"

"That is to say, they don't really believe in anyone, and they have a more flexible belief policy." Edward said, "They believe in themselves, their abilities, their own hands can shape a better future, and their hard work can lead to a better future." to change."

"Wait a minute, so the Ernst Foundation is actually a secret organization?"

Klein felt something was wrong: "Other emerging secret organizations within 300 years, such as the Aurora Society, the Rose School, and the Spiritual Order, all acted in secret and only spread in the extraordinary world. Why did the Ernst Foundation appear in such a big way? Ordinary people? Are they not afraid of the Church?"

"Because they help the poor and stabilize the bottom of society. Desperation and evil will breed in places where gods can't see or don't bother to look. They like to do charity and become environmental improvers in garbage dumps."

Edward fed Amon the last shrimp dumpling, and told him that you have eaten three plates, so you are not allowed to eat any more.Then he said in a natural tone: "Although it is a secret organization, the policy of the church is also different. The Ernst Foundation has maintained social stability to a certain extent, and stabilized the people at the bottom who cannot be controlled by the Seven Gods. Of course the church is willing to share some living space.”

"Will the church contribute to the foundation?"

"Yes, but only one thing, after all, you have your own interests."

"Is that so..." Klein felt a little better in his heart, and decided to donate more money to the foundation in the future.Then he asked what he wanted to know the most, "I'm curious, almost all the hidden existences have their own organizations, but the Foundation doesn't seem to have one. Could it be that the hidden existence behind them is the "true creator"?"

"..."

Amon stopped searching for food on the table, quietly jumped back to Edward's hand, poked his head out from behind his sleeve, and stared at Klein.And Edward thought for two seconds, pretending to casually ask: "Why did you suddenly think of this? How did you think of it?"

"I heard from people in the Extraordinary circle that someone saw Mr. A from the Aurora Society on the night of the explosion in Capin's mansion."

Klein replied with reason, and revised the facts: "And I heard that Maria in the East District has been looking for someone who can help her sneak into Capin's mansion. I have also received an invitation."

"Oh." Edward responded lightly, stirring the sugar water in his hand with a spoon, stirring the ingredients into a strange swirl, "but what does this have to do with you thinking that they are the real creator behind them?"

"After all, the Ernst Foundation is an old-fashioned charitable organization that is recognized and trusted by the world, and the real creator is an ancient evil god who can make people lose control and go crazy just by listening to him. They should not be connected at all."

"That's right...hehe, this is just my guess."

This is also the thing that confuses Klein the most, but the undercurrent in the Eastern District has nothing to do with Klein, not to mention that every time Detective Sherlock goes to the Eastern District, it is justified and aboveboard, and there is nothing suspicious about it. .What's more, if the cults and gangsters fight fiercely, the Orthodox Church will clean it up, and the order will not collapse.

"Maybe you heard some rumors. Rumors and unreasonable speculations always spread quickly these days."

Edward graciously gave him the step down, skipping the topic: "I know you detectives will have a confidentiality agreement, so I won't ask you about Maria's commission. But I'm still a little curious, what kind of things she commissioned ?After all, I remember that she herself should be a mid-sequence Extraordinary, enough to walk sideways in the Eastern District. And she also has subordinates herself, so she shouldn't invite people who are not familiar with the Eastern District to help."

"I was also very curious at first, but later I realized that it was a commission for all the investigations of Kapin's mansion, so a stranger was needed to do it."

Klein didn't answer in detail, and he didn't want to reveal his secrets. The gray mist must be a high-level item of a fortune-teller, and fellow angels are also high-level items. If he had any thoughts, he couldn't resist them at all.At this time, it is also necessary to keep an eye on it. At worst, I will confess later: "I just helped her observe Capin's mansion, and it was not too difficult. I heard that Capin's villa exploded. It's really complicated when it comes to foreign espionage cases."

Edward looked at him.

The "clown" sequence makes it impossible for him to tell whether Klein is telling the truth from his face, nor can he take out the soul of the "judge" path to perform "No lying here!" or do a "can't lie" at this time transactions and such.But He doesn't need these, because He is fully aware of all the causes and effects, and already has the answer in his heart.

"That's it." He said.

"There is no doubt that the spirit body of the "Black Emperor Card" is Klein Moretti, and he has almost admitted it himself. "

"Then the only problem now is: when I saw him on the scene, he showed a very high personality and great strength. I remember what Roselle thought of when he designed the "Card of Blasphemy", It's just spreading the way of God secretly, so there should be no effect that can strengthen the power of the spirit body, which is not in line with the secret purpose. "

"And the personality, huh, is not lower than me, this devil's me."

"What on earth has endowed him with extra strength and personality? Could it be that the Evernight Goddess pays so much attention to him and responds to her call at any time?"

"If not..."

"... Could it be that "Origin Castle" has an owner now? "

221
The boundless gray mist permeated the feet as always, and the long bronze table in front of him was mottled with rust green but not decayed.

"The Sun" Derrick's slightly rapid heartbeat finally gradually calmed down, and his anxious mood also eased.Before that, he was like a beast trapped indoors, pacing back and forth in the room a little anxiously.He felt that the "Chief" did not pay enough attention to his report, and worried that those members of the exploration team who did not know how they were affected by the "Fallen Creator" would cause damage to this city that had been in darkness for two thousand five hundred and eighty-two years after the quarantine was lifted. Devastating damage.

In such a situation, he was desperate for advice.

Get the opinions of Mr. "The Hanged Man" and Miss "Justice" who are quite familiar with the "Fallen Creator".

This is the time he looks forward to the Tarot meeting the most.

Sitting opposite were Miss Justice and Miss Magician, and what came to his ears was the familiar, brisk greeting:
"Good afternoon, Mister Fool~"

"good afternoon……"

Klein, shrouded in gray mist, nodded slightly, seemingly leisurely responding to the greetings from Miss Justice and other members, but he was actually busy manipulating the "world" to make him appear like a real person.

After interviewing with reporter Mike yesterday, it was already dinner time. Mr. Edward, whom he had an agreement with, came to visit. The two had a good meal and chatted happily. The taste of the food in his hometown made him feel sour and joyful.

After eating and drinking enough, he didn't go out for the next time, or study the "Book of Secrets", or prepare food by himself, so that the heavy emotions that would arise every time he went to the East District dispelled a lot.Unknowingly, when the afternoon came, he shifted his mind to the Tarot meeting.

After saying hello, Audrey "Justice" endured the curiosity and excitement, and did not rush to ask what was the truth behind the Capin incident. She got the news that a high-level extraordinary battle broke out in Capin's mansion, so Naturally, he didn't believe the so-called spies' rhetoric.

Audrey looked around and observed the status of other members.As a "mind reader," she quickly spotted some anomalies:
Huh, "Sun" is very anxious, what happened to the former captain of the exploration team? Did you meet Amon?
Mr. "The Hanged Man" is in a good mood, his potion has been digested... He seems to be looking forward to something...

Fors is in a state of being curious but afraid to ask... Mister "World" still has that gloomy and introverted look, it is difficult to read his current thoughts, he is really the nemesis of the "spectator" approach...

"The Hanged Man" Argel looked sideways upwards, and said humbly: "Dear Mister Fool, I have collected three new pages of Roselle's diary."

Diary? Roselle's diary? "Magician" Forsi pricked up her ears.

Klein responded with a smile: "What do you want to exchange them for?"

Glancing at the card covered in Mister Fool's hand, "The Hanged Man" Argel suppressed his enthusiasm and said:
"I want to know what the card next to you is."

I know this... Audrey "Justice" turned her eyes halfway, raised her chin slightly, and happily cast her gaze obliquely forward, to a stone pillar supporting the dome.She quickly withdrew her gaze, ready to appreciate Mr. The Hanged Man's reaction after hearing the answer.

The request of "The Hanged Man" was a bit beyond Klein's expectations, but it was the easiest kind to complete, so he smiled lowly: "Yes."

"Do you want everyone to hear, or just yourself?"

"The Hanged Man" Alger replied without hesitation: "Only I know." He does not have the spirit of selfless dedication.

Klein smiled and blocked the senses of the rest of the members, which made Miss Justice very wronged. She was waiting to see Mr. The Hanged Man's expression of astonishment and shock, as if she had done something remarkable, although I will not take the initiative to promote it, but I am looking forward to the reaction of others after they know it.

But now, the hateful "Hanged Man" has deprived me of this happiness! Audrey murmured in her heart.

Fortunately, the senses recovered after a while, and Audrey "Justice" immediately turned her gaze to "The Hanged Man", and through the blurred image, she vaguely "read" the remaining shock, joy and yearning of the other party.

That's it... Audrey was greatly satisfied.

"On March [-]th, I was indeed the protagonist. Based on some archaeological clues and folklore, I found a ghost ship left by the Solomon Empire near the Oradek Islands on the edge of the Misty Sea. The ancient 'Black Throne' '! It's so cool!"

"The treasures of the Solomon Empire will belong to me!"

.........

"Actually, I am not purely for the treasure, I also want to verify a problem, from the sun, to the red moon, from the trajectory of the stars in the sky, to the alternation of spring, summer, autumn and winter, all kinds of signs and different data prove that where I am This world should be a planet. In this case, it should not only have the north and south continents. Judging from various data, the combined area of ​​the north and south continents is less than [-]% of this planet. Could it be that other places are just oceans and only islands? ?”

"To the west of the North Continent is the Misty Sea, and to the east is the Sunya Sea. I suspect that at the end of these two oceans, there are other continents, just like the end of the Violent Sea is the Southern Continent. Maybe I can discover a brand new one. Continent, Western Continent!"

"Let's go, great navigator Russell Columbus Magellan Gustav, go and verify your conjecture!"

This page of the diary seemed to be connected with the page he had read before, with at most one or two other diaries in between.

Therefore, Klein is roughly certain that during this long voyage, Roselle found a pristine island located outside the safe waterway due to getting lost, and there were many extraordinary creatures on it. During this process, he also used the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" The stalk of "One Piece" teased Green, Edwards and others who followed him to sea.

Speaking of which, the view that this world is a planet has now been widely accepted and confirmed by astronomy...

"There really is a Western Continent!" However, even in the Fourth Epoch, the Western Continent is only a rumor. It is said that it is the hometown of elves, and it involves the ancient god named Sonia Solem. "

"In short, at the end of the Misty Sea, there may be the Western Continent, the hometown of elves. What about at the end of the Sunya Sea? Is there really an Eastern Continent? Which words and phrases is it hidden in the mythological classics? Could it be the illusory 'god'? Abandoned land'?"

"Keep going, Roselle, you are about to reach your destination!"

………………

"On April [-], there are signs that we are about to arrive at a land, not an island land! There is such a benefit in getting lost? Will I discover the so-called Western Continent?"

"On April 21, I saw the abyss."

The diary came to an abrupt end.
