Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 619 Some conjectures about outer gods and the old days

Hobert didn't quite understand what Trunsoest meant. Logically speaking, a normal god must have experienced the level of Sequence 2. At this time, he had a copy of the extraordinary characteristics of Sequence 2 in his body.

After being promoted to Sequence 1, it is likely that he will have an additional Sequence 2 characteristic in his body.

So when he consumed all the Sequence 1 extraordinary characteristics and became a god, theoretically, he would have at least 4 copies of the Sequence 2 extraordinary characteristics in his body.

According to Trunsoest, if a god of a path can exhibit the characteristics of Sequence 2, a church should have 8 angels, right?

Of course, the premise is that all sequence 2 characteristics of the pathway have been collected.

But here comes a new question. According to Hobert's observation, the Orthodox Church does not seem to have so many angels?

霍伯特有些疑惑地道：“按照序列2的非凡特性有9份来算，如果搜集全了整个途径序列2的特性，正神教会应该有5位到8位天使才对。

"If there are only 3 angels, is it because the righteous god needs at least 6 copies of the stable state of sequence 2 characteristics?"

"First of all, even if you reach the True God level, you can't just release the characteristics you want." Trunsoest said: "Generally speaking, a True God needs to have 3 Sequence 2 characteristics in his body.

“This should be affected to a certain extent by the law of aggregation of extraordinary characteristics.

"Only the excess 3 copies can be discharged. Tudor and I are in a special situation, but we can only send out a 'Duke of Entropy' attribute if we wish.

"Less than 3 copies will affect the state of the god. The body can hold up to 6 copies of Sequence 2 characteristics."

Trunsoest smiled and said: "You have such naive ideas because you ignored a problem.

“Extraordinary characteristics not only converge, but also tend to split.

“Although the tendency towards the Sequence 2 level is not very obvious, there are always some Sequence 2 characteristics that are beyond the control of the Orthodox Church.

"Just like I used to be a 'Judge', I only mastered 7 trends of the 'Balancer' extraordinary characteristics, and I don't know where the other characteristics are."

Hobert was slightly startled. This was a problem with his thinking mode. Angels and below could hardly feel the law of aggregation of extraordinary characteristics. At the same time, this also allowed him to ignore the tendency of extraordinary characteristics to split.

"But theoretically, as long as after a period of operation, the Zhengshen Church can master at least 7 or 8 copies of the characteristics of Sequence 2." Trunsoest continued: "But after the Second Epoch, the gods will avoid Four angels appeared in this path at the same time!

"So the upper limit of the number of angels in the Zhengshen Church is 3."

When saying this, Trunsoest smiled meaningfully.

Although he didn't say it clearly, Hobert understood what he meant: Theoretically, the gods can allow up to 5 angels in their path.

But in the second era, there were really too many painful lessons about being betrayed by gods.

When there are only two or three slave gods of the same sequence, there is a very high probability of backstabbing the main god. If there are five angels, not only the probability of betrayal increases, but it is also easy for the angels to "organize a group" to assassinate themselves. .

Until the Fourth Age, there are still such painful lessons.

For example, the angel in front of Hobert, who was once the "Black Emperor" path, stabbed Solomon in the back with Tudor just to be promoted to Sequence 1.

That's why Trunsoest didn't make it too clear here, he just smiled meaningfully.

The three of them are just right. If they rely solely on their own strength, they will not pose much of a threat to the main god, and they can also maximize their own strength.

Like Trunsoest and Tudor, if they didn't have the support of the six gods and lent them three more courages, they wouldn't dare to betray Solomon.

Trunsoest continued: "The extraordinary characteristics of the 'Duke of Entropy' that I excreted were given to family member Valentin.

“I heard that he was injured during the siege by the Angels of the Orthodox Church, and was ambushed by Tamara after escaping. This extraordinary characteristic should be in the hands of the Tamara family.

"The 'Duke of Entropy' Extraordinary Characteristics that Tudor expelled was given to his daughter Beverly. This girl died in the 'War of the Four Emperors'. According to some information we obtained, this extraordinary characteristic did not Extracted from Beverly's body."

Hobert said "hmm". He knew these two characteristics relatively well.

"After Tuduo's death, I got two copies of the 'Conqueror' extraordinary characteristics, and at the same time I got a sealed item corresponding to the 'Duke of Entropy' sequence. This sealed item is the second one that was not sent out from Tuduo's body. The 'Duke of Entropy' characteristic, the sealed object is currently in the hands of the Balke family in the southern continent." Trunsoest finally said:

"After the Six Gods surrounded me and killed me, a copy of the 'Duke of Entropy' extraordinary characteristic, or a sealed object, should have appeared on my body. That was the second copy of the 'Duke of Entropy' characteristic that was not excreted from my body.

"But it's hard to say which church he was admitted to."

Hobert pinched his forehead. It was really difficult to guess which righteous church this extraordinary characteristic belonged to. After all, there were six options.

So to sum up, the seven Sequence 7 characteristics of the "Black Emperor" path are clear at a glance:

2份在真实造物主那里；1份在长尾岛；1份在塔玛拉家族那里；1份在信使贝芙丽那里，1份以封印物的方式在巴尔克家族那里；1份以封印物的方式在某个正神教会。

Hobert asked again: "So what are the extraordinary characteristics of the seven 'balancers' you just mentioned?"

Trunsoest answered patiently: “Among the three Sequence 3 extraordinary characteristics I obtained, each contains one of the ‘balancer’ extraordinary characteristics.

"Actually, one of the extraordinary characteristics of 'Hand of Order' originally contained two copies of the 'Balancer' characteristic.

"This Sequence 1 characteristic comes from Tamara. This kid is very sensible. When he learned that the Six Gods needed all the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Hand of Order', he betrayed his father.

"His condition is to ask the Six Gods to destroy the extraordinary characteristic of the 'Hand of Order', and he hopes to get another characteristic of the 'Balancer'.

"Liu Shen agreed to his conditions because Tamara was also accused of killing her father, which was a good cover-up for Liu Shen's plundering behavior."

Hobert suddenly said: "Tamara's betrayal of her father should have been agreed upon by the father and son, right?"

"I think so too." Trunsoest spread his hands: "This is the extraordinary world, and we must try our best to preserve our own strength."

He continued: "However, the Six Gods have also been guarding against Tamara. Just when Solomon was resurrected and the Six Gods' eyes were attracted, Tamara, who had already planned, defected with her tribe.

"After taking refuge in Tudor, a female member of the Tamara Gang family was promoted to a 'balancer', and then used this 'balancer' to marry into the Abraham family. This is equivalent to giving Mr. Door an angel!

“From then on, Tamara established a firm foothold in the Tudor family and became the fifth nobleman in the Tudor empire.

“But what surprised everyone was that in the early stages of the ‘War of the Four Emperors’, the Lord of Storms and the Goddess of the Night teamed up to seal Mr. Door.

"The Abraham family disintegrated at a speed that was unexpected to everyone. The 'balancer' who married the Abraham family also died in the subsequent battle and formed a sealed artifact.

"This sealed artifact was captured by the Trunsoest Empire and is currently with the Balk family."

Hobert nodded. He remembered that Lawrence carried a level 0 sealed object with him, which was the whereabouts of the second characteristic.

Trunsoest leaned back in his chair: "As for the other four characteristics, two are in the Augustus family and two are in the Castilla family.

"Originally, these two families each had a 'balancer' trait. After the Six Gods surrounded me, in order to strengthen the power of the country they supported, they smashed two copies of the 'Hand of Order' extraordinary trait.

“William and Philip were each given a copy of the ‘Hand of Order’ and ‘Balancer’ extraordinary characteristics, which gave their two families two angels each.

"As for the third 'Hand of Order' trait I extracted, it also contains a 'Balancer' trait, and it is currently in a certain Orthodox Church."

Hobert smiled slightly. After sorting it out in this way, the situation of the adjacent paths was also very clear.

"Thank you for your answer, and wish me the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Duke of Entropy' as soon as possible." He made a gesture of invitation, and Trunsoest was re-sealed into the pool at the foot of the mountain without any struggle.

Hobert carefully examined Trunsoest's seal before returning to the real world.

He sat at his desk and thought about it for a while, and decided to follow his previous plan and try to find the extraordinary characteristics left behind by Megli.

If there is contamination that cannot be removed, or there is a high risk of obtaining it, go to the Balk family and find a way to exchange it for the sealed artifact in their hands.

However, this is definitely difficult. If you obtain it as a "creator" or exchange it, it will be a bit ugly.

After all, this is a Level 0 Sealed Artifact, and it is a Sealed Artifact inherited from the family. Even if the Balk Family has been incorporated, the "creator" cannot forcefully claim it.

And if you carry the emblem of Trunsoest and obtain it as a member of Trunsoest, there will definitely be a lot of obstacles.

Regarding this point, Christine has already said that the family curse needs to be lifted in order to obtain the sealed artifact.

Then this rule becomes a bit funny. To lift the curse, you must advance to Sequence 2, but to get the sealed artifact, you need to lift the family curse first.

Hobert smiled, and then thought of a bad move: trick Lawrence into being promoted to Sequence 2, allowing Trunsoest to be resurrected in his body, so that the family curse would be lifted.

But soon, this method was rejected by Hobert himself. If Trunsoest was resurrected in other people's bodies, it would mean that Hobert himself had created a powerful enemy for himself.

The resurrected Trunsoest also has the "legitimacy" to enter the "Land of Disorder", which is very dangerous for Hobert.

After denying his own damaging move, Hobert opened the wooden box left by Rex in front of him and began to read the notes he left.

The top notebook contains speculations about the family curse. The contents of the notebook range from the clues Rex found during the investigation to the conjectures based on these clues. The logical chain is very complete and very close to the truth.

At the same time, Hobert also knew why Rex could leave him so many sealed artifacts, because during the investigation, he dug the graves of many Fourth Age nobles and obtained many extraordinary items for burial.

What seemed a waste to Hobert was that none of the antique Rexes in the graves were taken away.

The second half of this notebook contains conjectures on how to solve the family curse. Rex has thought of many ways, but after verification, most of them are not feasible.

For example, ask the Earth Mother Goddess Church to help you refine a body. When you are promoted to Sequence 2, the moment Trunsoest resurrects, you will transfer your spirit body and extraordinary characteristics into the new body, and He gave up his original body to Trunsoest. But later Rex found the Church of the Earth Mother through April and found that he could not do this.

It is not difficult to refine a brand new body, but the process of extracting the spirit body and extraordinary characteristics is very complicated and cannot be completed in an instant.

If you "back up" your spirit body in advance and create another self, you can do it after paying a certain price, but the extraordinary characteristics must be given to Trunsoest, and the refined body is useful for promotion. Certain restrictions.

In the end, Rex came to the conclusion that sacrificing himself was the best way to lift the family curse.

But his power was limited at the time. The Balk family's sealed object with the extraordinary properties of the 'Duke of Entropy' sequence provided the family with the last refuge and could not be moved.

And even if it is taken by force, it will be blocked by the Balke family using two level 2 sealed objects, so there is no chance of winning.

The extraordinary characteristics of Longwei Island cannot be obtained after many attempts.

Rex, who was already in a bad state, had no choice but to design a false promotion ceremony to create the illusion that he would temporarily possess the status of an angel, and deceive Trunsoest.

The design process of this plan completely made Hobert stupid. It simply used the ability of the "Crazy Mage" to the extreme.

But it's also a bit sad.

Hobert sighed and closed the notebook. Rex's ideas gave him a lot of inspiration.

For example, if you ask the Mother Earth Church to help shape a new body, can you temporarily give your own blood and curse to the new body, take advantage of this opportunity to advance to Sequence 2, and then immediately solve Trunsoest's problem?

Rex couldn't do this, but Hobert could ask "The Fool" to help him "graft" and temporarily "fool" fate and curse.

He remembered that after Klein was promoted to Sequence 3, his "large number" would have certain "grafting" rights.

Hobert decided to discuss with Klein after he was promoted to Sequence 3 to see if this idea was possible.

If that doesn't work, just wait until Klein is promoted to Sequence 2. At that time, he will be able to master more of the power of Origin Castle and should be able to complete the corresponding "grafting".

Hobert retracted his thoughts and went to read the second notebook. What he didn't expect was that the first half of the second notebook contained speculations about his mother, April.

Rex noticed that April's occasional habits and thoughts were very strange. For example, she had called the "Eternal Blazing Sun" the "Sun God" more than once. It was also strange why the "Eternal Blazing Sun" had the title of "Sun God". There is no description of "exploiting vulnerabilities and stealing" related rights in the name?

But soon Apple herself would wonder why she had such thoughts?

Rex seriously suspected in his notes that April was a test subject for an experiment by the Church of the Mother Goddess of the Earth. There might be a ray of divinity from a hidden existence in her body?

Later, some other behaviors of April seemed to confirm Rex's guess. At first, he approached April with purpose. Later, after the two people really fell in love, April's strange habits and thoughts gradually decreased. In the end there was nothing left.

To Rex, it seemed like humanity had triumphed over divinity.

Hobert leaned back in his chair and thought: According to his father's records, it was obvious that his mother had mistaken the "Eternal Sun" for the "Ancient Sun God". Could it be that she has a part of the divinity of the Mother Earth in her body? Is the mother a test subject for making a container for the coming of Mother Earth?

He scratched his head, not sure if his idea was right.

Continuing to look down, Rex also guessed that there was no more information about the "God's Descending Container".

Hobert read on to see Rex's guess about another thing.

After reading the second notebook, Hobert went on to read the third. He discovered that these notebooks were the culmination of Rex's research on the occult and the extraordinary world.

It is also very in-depth, and even Hobert, who "got the answer", benefited a lot from it.

For example, Rex raised a question: Why do the related pathways of order seem incomplete?

He gave the example of the core authority of the adjacent paths of Death, Darkness and Twilight Giant. These three paths seem to be the interpretation of "Tranquility".

The Twilight Giant represents the process of decline and loss, the first step of "absolute tranquility", and the passage of life!

Darkness represents sleeping in the night and the stillness of life. This world is in constant motion, and because it is still, it deviates from the trajectory of things, and thus has hidden manifestations.

The Grim Reaper represents the return to the realm of the dead, the end of life, and entry into "complete tranquility."

Loss, stillness, end point, this seems to be the process of a living life, or in other words, the dynamic world of all things, reaching the end point.

This idea made Hobert's eyes light up, because he remembered that the "hidden space" was a state of stillness.

From Hobart's modern perspective, it is as if there is a space in which the process of time and the development of events have stopped, so this space is independent of reality.

Continuing reading, Rex begins to describe the core authority of the "Judge" and the "Black Emperor".

The "Judge" is to maintain order, while the "Black Emperor" uses and distorts order. One is to maintain and the other is to kill order, but he does not establish order.

Although the "Judge" will also establish its own order to achieve better rule, its core authority is "maintenance."

After all, he is a "judge", not a "legislator".

The same goes for "Black Emperor". No matter how order is destroyed, it is a process of establishing a new order.

For example, in order to destroy the normal architectural style and force an asymmetrical architectural style, this process is actually a process of establishing an asymmetrical architectural style.

But for the "Black Emperor", the so-called establishment of a new order is just a casual matter. His core authority is to "kill order."

The concepts of these three are so similar that even Hobert had not noticed this before.

From this point of view, the relevant authority of order is incomplete, and the part of "establishing order" is still missing.

Seeing this, Hobert smiled: I am the "creator", the one who "creates" order!

In his impression, before the Han Dynasty, most people did not dare to call themselves "emperors".

This represents creation and creation.

For example, the Yellow Emperor created the hierarchical system in the tribal era, and the Yan Emperor created farming, medicine, etc.

Ying Zheng also unified the world for the first time and dared to call himself "Emperor".

Although the kings of the Shang Dynasty also had "emperor" in their names, it was just a title and did not mean "creation".

Hobert said with a smile: I call myself a "creator", which also means a "sign of destiny".

But then he gradually put away his smile, because he seemed to have thought of a very important question, but for a while, it seemed difficult to put his thoughts together.

Hobert immediately realized that this involved some of his sealed memories, and he immediately entered the "State of Disorder". Sure enough, many memories began to emerge in his mind.

He remembered Trunsoest's description of the ability of "Uncertain Mist", which meant that "what he said was followed", "Uncertain Mist" seemed to be a "legislator"?

Sitting on the "Iron Throne", Hobert fell into deep thought: According to my previous guess, the "State of Disorder" is a relatively special source of matter, half of which is on the earth and half of which is in the "Uncertain Mist".

Originally, the "State of Disorder" was complete and was the source of the "Children of Chaos", but was later torn into two halves. So, does the characteristic of the "Children of Chaos" have a complete path to "Order"? ?

The "Primary Creator" tore the core powers of "maintenance" and "killing order" to the earth, leaving only the core power of "creation" in the "Son of Chaos".

Hobert thought about the state of the "Djinn" again. This sealed object seemed to be fulfilling wishes in a twisted way.

First of all, the ability to "fulfill wishes" comes from the extraordinary characteristics of the "Miracle Master" who sealed him, and then the twist means that the "Son of Chaos" has the ability to "kill order".

This is not difficult to understand. After all, the "primary creator" did not have a "scale" to tear apart, so it was impossible to "tear" so accurately.

It is possible to "tear off" 0.9 copies of the authority and extraordinary characteristics of "Judgment", and 0.8 copies of the authority and extraordinary characteristics of "Murder Order".

As long as it reaches a certain threshold, such as 0.8 or above, it can form the characteristics required for the level of a true god.

Along this line of thinking, Hobert also thought that the "Judge" path also has the ability to attack mentally, and the "Black Emperor" path not only has the ability to attack mentally, but also has the ability to "charm".

This is obviously an ability outside of the core authority. Over the long years, all the extraordinary characteristics that were "initially" torn to the earth have been balanced and supplemented to a certain extent.

The extraordinary characteristics that were finally torn apart formed a total of 22 paths.

It may not be that there are only 22 paths, but these extraordinary characteristics are enough to form 22 thresholds for becoming a god!

Then, the mental attacks and charms in the "Judge" and "Black Emperor" paths are supplements from other extraordinary characteristics.

Judging from the fact that the "Black Emperor" path ability is "replenished" more than that of the "Judge", the "Son of Chaos" must have some remaining extraordinary characteristics and authority of the original "Slaying Order".

Later, in the first era, the "Tianzun" or "Secret" may mainly mix the power of "creation" with the source matter of the 'Son of Chaos', and throw it into the starry sky, forming the "Uncertain Mist" .

Therefore, the sealed "Child of Chaos" can also perform high-end "distortion" operations.

Thinking of this, Hobert was suddenly stunned: If my guess is correct, then my path is adjacent to the path of "Uncertain Mist"?

Hobert thought about many other questions: This can also explain why the outer gods are so interested in the true gods and advanced extraordinary characteristics on the earth. For them, that is probably an adjacent path!

These conjectures surprised Hobert himself, because he had no such relevant knowledge in his mind, but the known knowledge seemed to point to this point.

Unfortunately, there is currently no way to prove these conjectures.

Hobert finally sighed inwardly. Rex did not have the relevant concepts and knowledge of the old days. If he had this knowledge, perhaps his research and conjecture would be quite terrifying.

Back in the real world, Hobert continued to read his notes without sleep or food until Audrey came to visit in the afternoon, and he put away the notes.

In the study, as soon as the two met, Audrey said: "I heard this morning that everyone in the villa died due to a gas explosion in Hvin Rambis's home!"
