Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 581 Mother of Heaven and Kingdom of Night

"Let me first describe my feelings about that battle!" Hobert said: "First of all, Amon's power is very terrifying. Under the attack of the opponent's extraordinary ability, it is even difficult for me to have coherent thoughts.

“Of course, after your idea is stolen, you won’t be able to react for a while.

"Later, when I reviewed it, I found that all my ideas had been stolen during the initial period, or that there were no secrets at all during that period!

"If it hadn't been for the magical items given in advance by the great 'creator', Amon's clone might have stolen all my memories, including the memory of participating in the Tarot Club."

He spread his hands: "I even 'forgot' to pray to the 'Creator' or to the 'Fool'!"

Everyone almost gasped together, this ability sounds terrifying.

Klein behind the gray mist lamented: Fortunately, I only got clues about Amon's clone through the Arrodes Magic Mirror. If I passed by and was stolen by the other party, even a thought might be discovered, and my secret might be discovered.

"The Hanged Man" Alger was worried for the "Emperor": Even a demigod was powerless to fight back. Once a demigod or below encountered Amon, it would be a luxury to escape.

"Magician" Forsi was a little scared: Fortunately, Hobert is the favored one of the "Creator", otherwise I might have lost him forever!Even if he appears in front of me, it may not be the real him.

Also feeling scared was "Justice" Audrey: I didn't expect the previous hunting operation to be so dangerous!Hobert just mentioned it briefly before, and it gave me a feeling that it was not difficult.Fortunately, Hobert was fine, and fortunately the "creator" had foreseen it.

The most rational one is "Hermit" Cattleya: The ability of "Stealer" pathway is very difficult to deal with when it reaches "High Sequence"!If you want to fight, you must have a plan, or at least an idea.But these ideas and plans will be stolen, and you may forget that the person in front of you is the enemy!This is very scary!
"Moon" Emlyn thought belatedly: If I met Amon, wouldn't he know that I was the person chosen by the ancestor!I am the winner of this blood race!He, no, he must be very envious.

Hobert continued: "So I said before that the best way to encounter Amon's clone is to pray to the 'Fool', if you still remember this.

"And parasitism is not such a scary ability.

“Another terrifying ability of His is to steal the fate of others and place it on himself.

"I have said this ability before, but you may not fully understand it. The situation we encountered was the person in charge of the Rhoside Islands..."

What he was talking about was Mr. Valentine. If he were called the patriarch of the Tony family, it would be too specific information, and it would seem to have nothing to do with the "creator".

After deceiving Barnett yesterday, Hobert seemed to have opened up a new world. He could ask a messenger to recruit the Tony family when needed.

Hobert could feel that the messenger wanted to bring the Tudor family closer to the "founder", and he seemed to have a very good relationship with the angel of the Tony family who was not in good condition. It was up to the messenger to recruit them. Couldn't be more appropriate.

It's just that Hobert doesn't need so much extraordinary power now, so early recruitment is still a burden.

But this does not affect Hobert's ability to classify them as "creators" when bragging.

Emlyn was a little surprised: Ancestor, please never meet Amon, otherwise in such a perfect life as mine, I will definitely be targeted by him!
"...the general person in charge of the Rhoside Islands has his destiny stolen by Amon's clone." Hobert continued: "He has been using various reasons to avoid praying and reporting to the 'creator', so that no one can Discovered this.

"For a long time, the power of the entire Rhosid Islands was serving Amon's clone, and even I didn't notice anything strange when I saw him.

"If I hadn't recalled that something was wrong in that meeting later, I might not have discovered it until the 'creator' took the initiative to assign a task to the person in charge of the Rhoside Islands."

Cattleya nodded slightly, expressing her understanding that even if he was the person in charge of a region, the gods would not pay attention to him all the time if he had no instructions.The only exception is the "Hidden Sage", but rather than paying attention, it is more like actively instilling knowledge.

Everyone listened carefully as the "Emperor" continued: "Afterwards, we conducted an investigation and found that the cause of the whole incident was because our companions in the Rhoside Islands abused the sealed artifacts of the 'Stealer' channel, which led to the recruitment of Amon's clone.

"So if you know that there are level 1 sealed objects of the 'Stealer' path around, or demigods and above extraordinary people of this path, you must be careful!

"Amon has the habit of collecting extraordinary characteristics of the same path. Maybe one day, he will come to your door."

After the gray fog, Klein had the urge to cover his face: My neighbor has a "stealer" path demigod parasitic in the body of a mouse. Because I often go to church, I often meet fellow poets!This is very much like wandering on the edge of danger!
Everyone else was thinking about the level 1 sealed objects and demigods of the "Stealer" path around them, but soon Alger realized the ridiculousness of his thoughts: Haha, what am I thinking?I have never even touched a level 1 sealed object, why do I still have such worries?
Everyone had the same idea as Alger. They all realized the scarcity of level 1 sealed objects and slowly shook their heads after smiling knowingly.

Hobert continued: “After discovering the problem, the hunt for Amon’s clone began.

"What I want to tell you is that the seven true gods all hate Amon, so if you pray directly to the true god, there is a chance that you can get some help from a certain god.

“It’s just that before that, we first showed enough goodwill and respect to that god, and in addition, that god also showed enough goodwill towards our faith.

"This needs to be adapted to local conditions. Under the instructions of the 'Creator', I received help from the 'hidden' power from the goddess of the night.

"After the operation started, a secret world was formed on the battlefield, which can effectively isolate Amon's other clones from coming to support."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and Klein thought to himself: I wonder if I will get corresponding help if I pray to the goddess?

He thought about it seriously. He had always respected the goddess enough, but more importantly now, what was the goddess's attitude towards the "Fool"?

Audrey smiled slightly: I didn't expect such an operation to be possible. If Hobert hadn't said so, I wouldn't have thought of it.

Then she thought: I wonder if I would get any reward if I reported Amon's news directly to the goddess?
But Audrey thought about it and gave up the idea: Extraordinaries from the church would definitely come to verify the source and authenticity of this information, which would be very troublesome and even risk exposing me to participate in the Tarot Club.

Cattleya was slightly startled: This is the first time I have heard of this method... Well, to be precise, it is the first time I have felt that the gods also have emotions such as disgust. I have always felt that they are superior, They are very indifferent existences, but according to the emperor, they seem to have some personal emotions?Well, there should be, after all, the ancient sun god Sun God has a personality.

"Then the second step is to prepare enough and overwhelming power." Hobert said: "And it is best to prepare as much power as you have.

"Because Amon's clone is very cunning, and this cunning will not only deceive strangers, but even people who are familiar with him will not be spared.

“There is an angel on our side who was very familiar with Amon in the Fourth Age, so this battle plan was planned by him.

"But what is unexpected is that some of Amon's true manifestations in the Fourth Age were to deceive acquaintances in order to fight. As a result, the power of Amon's clone far exceeded expectations, and the 'creator' personally took action to save the situation. !”

Klein nodded lightly: This sounds very much like what Amon can do.

Then he realized: the "composition" of the "creator"'s subordinates was very complicated. There were guards who had served the God of Death, and angels who were very familiar with Amon. How did these people come together?

But then Klein realized: Maybe they were subordinates of the "Creator" from the beginning, but were sent to the God of Death, or sent to monitor Amon?

"Little Sun" only thought that Amon was scary before. He had always thought about how to avoid Amon and never thought about fighting Amon head-on. Now when he heard the "Emperor" tell the story of the battle, he was also very excited: It turns out, Amon, no, Amon's clone can be defeated, but you have to be careful, otherwise it will be easy to fall into his trap.

Forsi sighed: I only know that Angus is a member of the Tudor family, and that team of Elliot and others who are still training in Jeffrey City are from a family of Extraordinary people from the Southern Continent.I didn't expect that the "Creator" would have subordinates who were familiar with Amon... But it makes sense when you think about it. The "Creator" can even accept people from the Gnosis Society, so it's not surprising to have these strange subordinates.

"In the end, the three angels and several saints took advantage of the 'creator' to eliminate Amon's two angel-level clones and a dozen saint-level clones." Hobert said: "This is this war. The whole story."

Klein smiled slightly: No wonder you are so generous with the "Insect of Time", it turns out you have killed so many clones!
Alger was a little frightened: this battle was equivalent to the destruction of a large secret organization!Although this thinking is a bit one-sided, the results achieved are indeed great!

Cattleya calmly analyzed: It has to be said that Amon's clones are a very terrifying force when gathered together, but this is also a drawback, because these clones have a single ability, so if the method is appropriate, they can easily be wiped out. .Haha, my idea is really arrogant!

Audrey asked curiously: "Mr. Emperor, where is the person in charge of the Rhoside Islands who had his destiny stolen? Has he been rescued?"

Hobert shook his head: "No, it is said that after being stolen from his destiny, he will be in a state similar to 'secret'. No one can see him or hear his voice. He will Only when you gradually lose all contact with the real world will you die painfully in loneliness."

Everyone was surprised and felt that this ability was too vicious.

Hobert added: "As for those parasitized companions, a group of them were rescued. Those who died basically did not die in the hands of Amon's clones, but basically died in the hands of their own people.

"The parasitized person kept inciting everyone during the battle, and one of his own people started fighting with his own people. Fortunately, the battle on the main battlefield ended quickly, so there were not too many casualties."

At this point, the other members have a complete understanding of the entire war, and then they are all thinking about what kind of countermeasures they should take after meeting Amon?
But their thoughts all came to the same answer: there was nothing to do but pray.

After the hall was quiet for a few seconds, Klein controlled "The World" and asked Hobert: "Do you have any precise information about the 'Mother of Heaven' and the 'Kingdom of Night'?"

Mother of Heaven?
The Kingdom of Night?
Everyone looked at the "world" curiously, and then at the "emperor".

I feel like I am very powerful just by hearing the two titles.Among them, Cattleya and Alger knew about the "Kingdom of Night", but they had only seen some fragmentary records, and she had never heard of the "Mother of Heaven", so she was very curious about the relevant information.

Hobert nodded: "I have obtained some definite information. Do you want to listen to it yourself? Or do you want everyone to listen to it together?"

Under everyone's expectant eyes, "The World" said: "Everyone listen together!"

Of course, everyone must listen together, so that crowdfunding can be easier.

Hobert nodded: "Okay, the reward is a detailed method of making a talisman using the 'Insect of Time'. Well, as detailed as you can, I have never made a talisman before."

Klein immediately manipulated "The World" and said: "Deal."

"Little Sun" raised his hand slightly: "Mr. World, can I get a method of making a spell using the 'Insect of Time'? What price do I need to pay?"

Klein paused for a moment before letting The World say: "Your chief should know the specific method. What he lacks now is a person who can pray for power."

Derrick was slightly startled: "I understand, thank you for your answer."

Hobert said to others: "As for everyone, if you want to join the transaction, you must provide me with help when I need it. The value of this help will not exceed 1000 pounds."

Klein was slightly startled: What kind of new gameplay is this?

But Forsi suddenly recalled the "Justice League" gathering held when Hobert returned to Backlund three or four months ago. The extraordinary properties and potion formulas provided by Hobert at that time were all that allowed him to Other members are paid in the form of tasks. Is this method also used in Tarot Clubs now?
Audrey said to herself: At dinner last night, my father just talked about Hobert's net worth. It is unimaginable that Hobert has quickly accumulated millions of pounds in the past month!But few people know the inside story, and Hobert has no intention of announcing it, so no one knows this legendary story!But I know very well that the reason why Hobert used "help" to settle the payment was because there was no shortage of these thousands of pounds.

Audrey's idea was correct. Hobert was indeed not short of money at all now, but if this information was completely free, it would be like breaking the "market rules", and over time, everyone would even get used to it and not think of it. It’s a help to everyone.

That's why Hobert decided to use "help" to settle the bill.

If you ask them for help in the future, just go to a certain member directly. You don't need to owe them a favor.

Even if such "help" is not needed, other members will consider it a debt, but the "creditor" is not in a hurry to collect the debt.

Audrey, who knew the inside story, first said: "Such a transaction is tantamount to 'bartering', or exchanging intelligence for some of our resources or capabilities. I am willing to pay in this way."

Others also expressed their willingness. After all, there is no need to spend money for this information now. In the future, you can also use the method you are good at to repay the debt. Of course they will be willing to use this transaction method!
After negotiating the remuneration, Hobert began: "Do you still remember the ancient god 'Destruction Wolf'? Just remember. First, I ask Mr. Fool to help me materialize a stone statue."

After Klein, who was sitting at the top, nodded, Hobert materialized the stone statue of "Mother of Heaven" in the church of the misty town.

It has the overall appearance of a female human, with a beautiful face, but two animal legs grow out of its ribs and waist, covered with short, thick, hard black hair.

At the foot of the stone statue, there are souls sleeping.

Seeing this stone statue, the other members felt that it was sacred and evil. They wanted to worship it but also wanted to stay away.

Alger even thought of the goddess of the night, but he felt that this idea seemed a bit blasphemous.

Hobert continued: "When I saw the four animal legs of this stone statue, I thought of the description of the 'Destruction Wolf'. After consulting the relevant information, I determined that the 'Destruction Wolf' indeed had the same length as the stone statue. Very similar animal legs.

"In the corresponding description, the 'Destruction Demonic Wolf' has eight legs, which corresponds to the stone statue. After all, the stone statue also has two arms and two legs.

"So I guessed, could this 'Mother of Heaven' be a sibling of the 'Destruction Demonic Wolf'?"

The erudite Cattleya finally recalled: "'Mother of Heaven'? Is it the belief found in the Honakis Mountains?"

The other members looked confused and confused.

Hobert nodded: "Yes. Oh, by the way, I haven't told you why I need to explain the life experience of this stone statue."

He glanced at "The World" and saw that the other party had no objection, so he explained: "Last week, Mr. World and I conducted a joint operation and found this stone statue in an ancient church.

"At that time, we found relevant clues about the 'Land of Night' and the 'Mother of Heaven' based on our discoveries, but there were not many records about it in ordinary historical materials or in the extraordinary world.

"Mr. World is very curious about this, so he entrusted me to investigate the 'Land of Night' and 'Mother of the Sky'."

The other members nodded slowly. If they encountered such extraordinary ruins, they would definitely investigate it.

Audrey thought: During this period, there has been a lot of cooperation between Tarot Club members. A month ago, Hobert started an exploration with Mr. World and Mr. Hanged Man. Unexpectedly, last week, Hobert Te and Mr. World have launched another collaboration.

Klein asked "The World" to nod. This was an affirmation of Hobert's description and recognition of the way of describing it. It showed that despite the whole situation, the key information had not been exposed.

After all, breaking into the Chanis Gate of St. Samuel's Church is not a glorious thing, and of course it cannot be spread as one's own glorious deeds.

Cattleya and other members were curious about their exploration experience and process, but the "Emperor" had no intention of going into details, and they didn't want to ask.

Alger said: "I remember that a long time ago, I told a piece of information in a Tarot meeting. The 'Kingdom of Night' was destroyed by the Church of the Night Goddess!"

Audrey also recalled the intelligence released by Mr. "The Hanged Man" at that time, and gained a more specific understanding of the "Land of Night".

"Yes, but we can't talk about the step of destroying the country until later." Hobert continued: "I verified my previous guess with the 'Creator' and got a positive answer. 'Mother of Heaven' is indeed Descendants of the 'Destruction Wolf'.

"And I got a very shocking news! Well, we'll talk about this news later. Let's talk about the 'Mother of Heaven' and Antigonus first.

"They are the daughters and sons of the 'Destruction Demon Wolf'. They are both born mythical creatures. 'Mother of Heaven' is the elder sister, and Antigonus is the younger brother."

"Antigonus?" Cattleya asked, "Is it the Antigonus who was active in the Fourth Age?"

"That's right." Hobert gave an affirmative reply: "He is also the ancestor of the Antigonus family later!"

Everyone was stunned. They didn't expect that this great nobleman from the Fourth Age was actually a descendant of the "Destruction Wolf"!

Alger wondered: Could the angels, or the great nobles, who were active in the Fourth Age at that time, all trace their roots back to the Second Age?

Audrey also lamented: This kind of life experience is very surprising. I originally thought that after the Second Age, the ancient monsters with crazy tendencies were basically extinct. I didn’t expect that they would become monsters in the Fourth Age. Great noble!

Emlyn also had similar thoughts, and he sighed: This is an extraordinary world!There are always some creatures that live as long as vampires!
Derrick realized that the influence of the descendants of the ancient gods who ruled the earth in the Second Age was so far-reaching.

Hobert gave everyone a few seconds to express their feelings, and then continued: "Based on some clues I got, I basically restored the birth and death of the 'Land of Night'.

"After the death of the 'Destruction Demonic Wolf', the 'Mother of Heaven' and Antigonus fled to the northern continent and hid in the plateau area of ​​the Honakis Mountains.

"Later, in order to stabilize the situation, they cautiously developed some believers on the plateau, and as the number of believers increased, they gradually formed the 'Kingdom of Night'.

"The religious beliefs of the 'Land of Night' can be explained from the path of 'Mother of Heaven' and Antigonus."

Hobert explained: "During an archaeological work on the 'Land of Night', historians found that people in this country believed in the 'Mother of the Sky', but had a very strange concept of death, believing that their loved ones would die after their death. Can be resurrected.

“So in this country, after someone dies, the body of the deceased will be placed at home, waiting for the resurrection of their loved ones.

"What historians find difficult to understand is that according to the records on some murals, the dead people really came back to life!

"If we interpret it with extraordinary knowledge, this process is not difficult to understand. According to some of Antigonus' abilities, it is not difficult for us to judge that these dead people are not really resurrected, but have become Antigonus. Gonus’ secret puppet!”

The most surprised person was Klein: Antigonus alone, no, a wolf, could control a marionette on the scale of a small country, or a city?
