Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

A faint circle of light swirled around Esther and Alexander's body, and then disappeared completely, escaping into the spirit world.

Esther couldn't clearly feel this before, but after the experience of going through the passage of the spirit world that day, she could feel that she seemed to have established some kind of deep connection with the spirit world, and she also knew how to use her own spirituality. The drive of the light spot becomes handy.

They are derivatives made by "Zoya", which themselves contain the power to communicate with the spirit world.

It was as if knowledge that had been forgotten for a long time was suddenly reviewed and forced into Esther's head.She has no choice but to accept these - she will also accept everything that can make herself stronger, as long as the consciousness of "Zoya" does not replace herself.

"This is very convenient." Although Alexander saw these light spots for the first time, he couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"That Extraordinary looks strange."

Alexander took Esther back to the street, and the two casually strolled along the side of the road with few pedestrians: "The mountain of Hornacis contains a lot of resources, and there are many speculators or historians coming If you investigate here, there will be people from anywhere, and there will naturally be corresponding underground communication channels."

"It turns out that's the case. No wonder the bookstore looks deserted, but the store looks like it's been around for a while... But that person doesn't feel very friendly to me."

Alexander laughed softly: "There is no way to judge more information for the time being, and it is not suitable for us to communicate with him. Let Aaron try again when we go back."

He didn't mention the interrupted conversation between the two, but Esther also forgot about it.

The two had dinner outside before returning to the hotel. When they came to the guest rooms of Aaron and Thomas, Alexander knocked on the door.

It was Thomas who opened the door: "You came back very quickly, have you seen Simon?"

Esther and Alexander walked into the house, and Esther closed the door behind her.

Alexander sat on the easy chair in the corner: "Simon is not in the bookstore. Listening to the clerk communicating with others, he has been away for at least a day, and we lack a channel to confirm safety."

Thomas rubbed the back of his head irritably, which was exactly the same as Mary's occasional small gestures: "That snob won't get into trouble for making black-hearted money again, right?"

Aaron was flipping through a dozen newspapers, casually browsing the recent news on Hornacis: "It's okay, he showed us the way last time, Alexander remembered it. As long as Simon didn't tell others about the existence of the ruins, yes We are all safe."

"When we were there, someone went to the store to look for the man named 'Simon' and threatened the clerk at the counter." Esther brought up the matter.

Thomas waved at her: "Don't worry about it. People who go to Simon's bookstore rarely buy books seriously. They basically want to receive or send messages through his channel."

Esther held the book and laughed dryly: "Haha, am I really a special case?"

"Just in case, I'd better go and divine the identity of the other party." Aaron put down the newspaper and stood up from the sofa.

Aaron returned to the living room a few minutes later, still absent-minded: "I can't see clearly, the other party also has means to guard against occult investigations, but I can feel that they are members of the secret order."

"Can you feel it?" Thomas looked like he wanted to kick Aaron to make it clear.

"After all, we have come back here. Those who are proficient in divination and are the most careful in concealment are the members of the Secret Order. They have always paid great attention to the ancient ruins of the Hornakis Mountains."

Alexander echoed Aaron's deduction aloud: "They are very likely, but they don't know the other party's sequence. On the way back, Hamel has already taken measures to prevent the other party from divination."

Aaron nodded: "There is nothing to worry about. Let's rest first. The sleeping bag Thomas has been bought. Let's set off tomorrow."

Esther went back to her own single room with a few newly purchased books. After locking the door, light spots fell, quickly isolating the place from the outside world.

She took out a gold coin, and other points of light were attached to it. Esther put the gold coin upright on the table, and twisted it with her fingertips to make it spin rapidly.

A faint humming sounded in the room, emanating from the constantly spinning coin, and Esther lowered her eyes halfway, letting her perception be tied to the coin.

"Will that man pose a threat to us?" Esther asked softly in the giant language, even though she was the only one in the room, only the constantly rotating coin was moving.

A silver thread emerged in Esther's consciousness, as if being twisted out by the wheel-like coin, fragmented images appeared in front of Esther's eyes:

In the deep and dark tunnel and the collapsed stone door, the four people scattered on the dust and their footsteps were messy. Black silk threads continued to hang down from the top of the passage. A figure jumped out from the flickering candle and fled frantically. On the gravel, a man with a short golden head and dislocated facial features stood in front of the halo.

In the constantly shaking tunnel, the tunnel of the spiritual world opens and closes, but is submerged by a creepy and wriggling black shadow.

All the illusions dissipated, and Esther's sight refocused and landed on the real world.

The gold louis no longer rotated, it was lying flat on the table, with a cluster of irises quietly facing upwards.

Esther held the gold coin in her hand, letting it twirl and roll lightly between her fingers, recalling the previous scene in her mind.

She has heard of the name of the Secret Order, it is a secret organization active in Intis, but when she was a Nighthawk, Esther learned about the way they secretly controlled the "Seer", air bullets and flame jumps, all meet the corresponding characteristics.

Klein said that this was the ability of a "magician". The footprints left by the fleeing man were of different shades. It was obviously the gentleman with over-oiled hair in the daytime bookstore.

The passage is narrow, so it is best to give priority to stealing the opponent's air bullet ability, so that it will be convenient to attack the opponent at that time. Thomas and Alexander's attack methods are not small, and it is quite easy to have the result of the destruction of the ruins in the ending.

The process of exploring the ruins didn't seem to be going smoothly. Those black silk threads shrank and swayed like living creatures, but they felt weird in the foresight.But who is that man with the golden cut?Esther is sure that she has never met the other person, she'd better ask Aaron and the others about the appearance of the bookstore owner "Simon" tomorrow.

However, what made Esther frown was that, even if she only had a glimpse of the future in the spirit world passageway at the end of the foreseeing picture, she felt that the wriggling black shadow was extremely dangerous.

The thing that can give her a clear "danger premonition" is probably an angel-level threat.

Esther sighed, tomorrow they must not use the necklace that can open the channel, otherwise there will be something difficult for a few people to face at the other end of the spiritual world channel, and I am afraid that it will be an absolute disaster.

However, there are only footprints of four people in the picture, including the "magician"...

"Is there no future for me?"

Esther chuckled, bounced the coin high and caught it again.

-

Same town, another hotel.

A man in a black tuxedo knocked on the door of a guest room. Within a few seconds, there was a "squeak", and another person appeared behind the door—his appearance, height, and even his right hand turned outward when he came to open the door. The foot, the lame posture are exactly the same as the man who knocked on the door.

The two people who looked exactly the same inside and outside the door looked at each other for a moment, and the figure standing in the room suddenly grew taller.

His high nose bridge melted, his eye sockets became deeper, and dark circles appeared below his eyes, his blue eyes turned into lead gray, his black hair kept receding under his scalp, and the color kept getting lighter, until finally only a golden cut was left .

The man with the appearance of the real "Simon" turned his body sideways, let his partner outside the door enter the room, and then locked the door. After arranging the spiritual wall in the room, he looked up at the middle-aged man who had just entered the room Man: "Has anyone come to see him?"

"Yes, I saw that there were three letters left on the counter, but what is more noteworthy is another person."

"You actually met them? Didn't you do a fortune-telling before entering the store?" "Simon" frowned, and walked to the only single sofa in the room. He completely lost the posture of turning his feet just now, and his tone was very cold.

The middle-aged man hung his head obediently, and stood beside the sofa: "I've done divination, but I didn't notice the other party's existence at all."

"If the other party has anti-divination means, you are not at fault." Although he said so, "Simon" still revealed his dissatisfaction, "Have you also opened your spirit vision to check them?"

"Yes, when I went in, there were two people in the store, a middle-aged man dressed as a scholar, and a woman who looked young but didn't look like someone from the Northern Continent. Both of them are Extraordinary, it should be."

"You're not sure."

The middle-aged man's expression became strange: "That woman feels very special to me. I can't see through it. I can only see that her spirit body is completely shrouded in a halo."

"Simon"'s expression gradually eased. He pondered for a few seconds before shaking his head at the middle-aged man: "If that's the case, then I really can't blame you. The other party is likely to be a high-ranking person, or control some special magical items. "

"Then do we need to find out where they are going?"

"Simon" narrowed his eyes: "No, you go and pack your things. After I perform a dream divination, we will return the room and set off overnight. If the target of the other party is the same as our goal, we will eventually go to that building." Near the ruins, it is better to let them explore the way for us."

The middle-aged man nodded: "I understand."

"If necessary at that time, we can directly blow up that tunnel and drag them inside."

The middle-aged man walked into his own room to pack his luggage, and the man with Simon's appearance took out a thin piece of paper and wrote the words "exploring the ruins of Antigonus, the final result", he clasped his hands The paper rests under the palm.

When "Simon" opened his eyes from the dream, cold sweat slowly dripped from his forehead. He didn't see any revelation, only a light that made him feel confused and bewildered.

No matter how vague the information is, fragmented feedback can be given through the spirit world. This is the first time he has seen such a situation. Is this also the interference of the other party?
"Simon" was completely clueless.

Thanks to book friends 150715224746616, Aowu super fierce_, book friends 20230125150408338, Mojiang Qiushui Changgexing, Xiaoxiaoyue for the monthly pass!
Seeing the interview with Squid said that the Outer Gods might have a new path design for the "Fate Weaver", I was so excited that I crashed my head on the big Lieba. This fits with the arrangement I expected for the "Three Sisters of Destiny". It can even leave an extra way for Esther. (Always feel like I spoiled something)
Tears streaming down my face, and I don’t know when Squid will be able to write it... It may not be possible before the end of this book, because the estimated number of words is not many, the outline is only five volumes, and the second volume is already halfway through.
