When does this world have a blood bar showing?

The candles on the altar burned steadily, releasing spiritual light. The layers of illusory images seemed to be a layer of curtains, being moved at the same time at the intersection of space, like bead curtains rippling and blooming.

After the devout believers finished praying in front of the altar, they lowered their heads respectfully and patiently waited for the response from their faith.

But... there was no response for a long while.

"..."

"..."

Could it be that my Lord is fighting against other beings again?

I remember that this situation has happened several times before, so the response will not be so timely... But it seems that it was more than a hundred years ago. It seems to be the period when the fight with the original moon was the most fierce. Could it be Have you gotten into a group again recently?

Charles Gustave was naturally a little confused. He couldn't help but raise his head slightly. He saw the spiritual wind vibrating and the spiritual light blooming. The two pulled and intertwined with each other, and seemed to tear a gap above the altar. The gap in the universe seems both real and illusory.

There is a giant pupil at the other end of the passage, vast and vast, vast and majestic. This giant pupil seemed cold and indifferent, but he knew very well that this giant pupil could burst out infinite light and heat that could illuminate the entire galaxy and the entire world at any time. When the light that was countless times more brilliant than the burst of stars came rushing towards, Even the gods would not be willing to face this ruthless sight

And such a majestic and great eye is very likely fighting with beings on the battlefield and beyond the starry sky. At this moment, because of its own rituals and prayers, it turns to this world and devotes a little energy to staring at the realm of reality. .

Thinking of this, Ciel couldn't help but feel his breath suffocate and his heart felt hot.

Awe and piety intertwined in his heart, turning into a particularly complex and fanatical emotion. It seemed that even though he was completely different from before and had become an angel walking on the earth, this moment seemed to be no different from before. Just like when I was a mortal, facing the glory and vision shown to me by the being who stood at the forefront of divinity, I couldn't help but feel the urge to worship...

next moment--

"The application is limited to pass..."

"...acknowledge it!"

Calm and indifferent fluctuations resounded directly in the mind. It was a mechanical, electronically synthesized sound.

This was not the first time he had received a grand revelation from a great existence, so Ciel was not surprised at all. He had long been used to it, and he was naturally only happy at the moment, because he knew very well that this response meant that his request had been granted.

And almost at the same moment when the great divine enlightenment fell, the surrounding spiritual power suddenly and unnaturally vibrated, and the illusory passage or portal had a faint feeling of crumbling. This is because some force is trying to pass through, but because the "road" is too narrow, the result of forcing its way through is that the passage becomes unstable.

However, the transferred files are not too big to begin with, so they are barely acceptable...

At best, it is equivalent to a comparative dictionary. Its function is to allow Ciel to translate and understand Russell's diary word for word based on the information instilled.

But it’s limited to this. For example, if you can’t get it in certain dialects, Internet memes, Martian script, etc., you can’t get it. There’s nothing you can do about it. Of course, even this is probably enough to kill an old father.

As for Ciel's own perspective, he saw that as the pure light of spirituality spurted out, at the other end of the illusory passage, thousands of strange fonts suddenly flew out, and they seemed to be glowing. The particles, like exquisite projections, flew towards his position and merged into his astral body the moment they appeared.

Immediately afterwards, all kinds of information emerged in his mind.

Those are weird and neat square characters...

"Praise you! My Lord!"

Charles was overjoyed and excited. He had been working towards a goal since his father's death. After one hundred and fifty years, he finally got what he wanted today.

Suppressing the excitement deep in his heart, he respectfully packed everything up, exited the hidden basement, and returned to the space above. Next, he has another mission and needs to stay in Tingen for a while.

But before that—

Sitting back behind the counter, he took a deep breath.

After all, just like his sister Bernadette, how could Charles not care about the changes in his old father in the last few years after he truly had the ability and conditions? No matter what, I want to figure out why my father became so paranoid, so indifferent, and... so crazy...

He slowly reached out and grabbed the stack of yellowed pages in front of him. The ominous truth about his father's later years was among them.

Turning to the first page, this angel with the appearance of a young man began to read seriously. Soon, several obvious wrinkles appeared between his eyebrows, looking slightly confused.

Turning to the second page, after a moment, the frown deepened.

Turning to the third page, his expression gradually darkened.

…………

…………

——Primitive island.

——Located in the huge mausoleum of the "Black Emperor".

"Ouch, don't touch it!!"

Russell was furious as he watched the figure in the light and shadow open his diary page by page, his expression slowly becoming particularly weird.

Realizing that his image in his son's mind was collapsing, he couldn't help crying out in sorrow.

The twisted power possessed by Sequence 0 of the lawyer path seems to be out of control at this moment, running wild and trying to completely destroy the order of everything in the world. But in the end, it can only wreak havoc in the realm inside this mausoleum. It is tightly restricted and cannot be vented. Therefore, it cannot cause even the slightest change or distortion in the outside reality realm.

The Black Emperor, who has not yet fully returned from resurrection, is ultimately unable to prevent his image from collapsing.

"..."

"..."

As time gradually passed, Russell sat on the throne with dull eyes, an expression that expressed sorrow rather than death. He finally realized how stupid he was in deciding to keep a diary and treating it as the only tree hole where he could express his feelings.

Which page of the diary is Ciel looking at?

Why does he look so ugly?

Was it because he had an affair with a young lady from some house when Matilda was pregnant? Or go and participate in the impact organized by Intis nobles? Or maybe it's a record of me fooling around with the witch... Damn it, why did I write those diaries in the first place, and why didn't I burn them all with a fire!

"Roselle, how do you feel now?"

The ghost opposite undoubtedly had plenty of patience, and it was only now that he smiled and asked.

It's okay not to ask, but asking is like triggering a switch——

Russell suddenly stood up from the Iron Throne with a snap.

He glared angrily at the illusory spirit, the invisible god that only existed in his own point of view, and his words became extremely fierce: "No, no! It's impossible... Don't even think about interfering with my will!!"

At this moment, the black emperor seemed to have grasped some life-saving straw. He waved his hands repeatedly, as if he wanted to deny reality with a strong will, or to convince himself: "Yes! I should have thought of it. ! It is absolutely impossible for Charles to be controlled by you. The Church of the God of Steam will never allow such a thing to happen, and Bernadette and Bonova..."

"..."

"..."

"Haha, you are very confident in the Church of Steam, but have you forgotten what happened in the past?"

Gu Mo said lightly, because his tone was so calm that he didn't know whether it was a kind reminder or a mockery intentionally or unintentionally.

The Church of Steam was supposed to be Roselle's strongest backing. At least for a long time, the God of Steam and Roselle were close allies, so good that they could wear a pair of pants together.

It's just that Russell has a temper that doesn't want to be manipulated by others, and he also knew some things he shouldn't have known at the time, so he made up his mind to take risks. In this regard, He also chose the route in the original trajectory. The real goal at that time was to forcefully switch to the non-adjacent lawyer path, the Black Emperor of Sequence 0, and become a genuine god.

But before that, he first needs to upgrade from Sequence 2 to Sequence 1 to increase the probability of success in ascending to the gods. At that time, the path he was on had already given birth to the God of Steam and Machinery, a Sequence 0. Therefore, it was impossible for him to upgrade to Sequence 1 on that path. Naturally, he could only turn to an adjacent path to seize such a chance. …

For the Steam Church, this problem is huge.

After all, the enemy of every extraordinary path is certain. Russell's behavior is almost equivalent to directly showing off his horses and horses to compete with the God of Steam and Machinery.

"So what? After I was assassinated, the God of Steam should have understood my plan. He will not be my enemy."

Faced with the verbal blow, the god on the Iron Throne remained unmoved. He only believed in his own inference more and more. He firmly believed that the chaotic projection on the other side was just interfering with his thinking and rationality, so he whispered extremely calmly:

"And I am Russell Gustave! Just this name is enough!!"

Even in the later years of Russell's life, he was at odds with the Church of Steam due to certain things and had mutual dissatisfaction with each other, but in the end, they never completely broke up with each other. After all, Roselle is of too great significance to the Church of Steam, and neither party can actually afford the price of a complete break.

"You are very rational at this time..."

Gu Mo laughed. In this regard, Lao Huang's judgment was still very accurate.

For example, the God of Steam must know this guy's later plan, because the Black Emperor's ritual is too obvious. Knowing that Russell was most likely to be resurrected and returned, the Church of Steam did not choose to erase traces of Russell's existence or suppress his reputation. Instead, it encouraged people to hold various exhibitions to promote Russell's inventions and creations. , seems to pave the way for his return intentionally or unintentionally.

In addition, this guy's second son is still an angel of the Church of Steam. In the path to the birth of Sequence 0, he is already the top big shot. Perhaps to the true God, angels are nothing. Just like the God of Steam and Machinery’s original decision, as long as you make up your mind, it is easy to give an angel to the Gustav family, and it is equally easy to take away an angel. .

But since there has been no change in this matter until now, it can also be regarded as an obvious signal released by the Church of Steam.

"Ha! I knew it!!"

Russell waved his fist fiercely, "It's impossible for anything to happen to Ciel! It's all lies! It's absolutely impossible for you to bypass the barrier now and do something to Ciel under the strict protection of the Righteous God Church! Otherwise, it's impossible for you to do anything to Ciel! There is no need to seek a breakthrough from me!"

"My logic skills are very good..." Gu Mo pretended to be surprised and praised, but he was slightly emotional.

Charles Gustave.

This is a name that is neither heavy nor light, and is destined to leave its name in history.

Not because of his own achievements, but because of his father's achievements. Frankly speaking, Charles is a man who is both lucky and unfortunate. He is the kind of person who was born in Rome, but the final outcome is not the same. What a good person, his life is not a legend, but it makes people feel a little sad and sighing.

——His sister, Bernadette Gustave, is the owner of the Dawn, one of the "Four Kings" of the sea, the founder and leader of the Element Dawn. When she was born, it was predicted that she would become a mysterious person. A big shot in the world;

——His younger brother Bonova Gustave is an angel walking on the earth. He belongs to the throne of God. He was favored by the God of Steam and Machinery before he was born. The true God personally shaped his soul. ,Pave the way;

And compared to...

Only Charles Gustave did nothing.

He was neither able to become a powerful Extraordinary, nor was he able to become the second emperor of the Intis Empire, and was crowned as "Caesar the Great II" or something like that. Instead, he was defeated by the Church of the Eternal Burning Sun and the Cause of Ti after Emperor Russell the Great. The Sauron family of the Si royal family and other nobles joined forces to assassinate him. After he fell into the White Maple Palace, he soon died of illness due to fear and worry.

——Of course...this is the original trajectory.

Russell didn't know this either. He just felt that he had regained the courage to live and was inspired by it, so he continued to glare at the ghost with a murderous look.

But before he could say anything, the latter took the lead and struck first.

"Okay, let's take a look at Bernadette now..."

Gu Mo said in a cheerful tone, reaching out to project the light and shadow screen: "I want to see how long you can persist in this idea. Speaking of which, Huang Beibei has been looking to decipher your diary these years. I might as well do a good deed every day and fulfill her wish today."

"impossible!!"

Russell's eyes suddenly widened to the extreme, and he blurted out: "Bernadette is even less likely to be influenced by you!"

"There is nothing impossible. She is not under the protection of the Zhengshen Church, and she chose the path of spying on secrets..." Gu Mo chuckled. That extraordinary path is already more extraordinary than most of the same paths. Those who see more can easily perceive certain existences hidden behind things, and spiritual vision can reach a very dangerous level.

"You are not a hidden sage!" Lao Huang denied fiercely.

"I could be too."

The illusory spirit reached out and pinched the air in a playful manner. Using this action, he changed his image and put on a monocle on his right eye:

"For example, boiling water is 100 degrees, and a right angle is 90 degrees, so boiling water is an obtuse angle... Another example is saying that a right angle is 90 degrees, and boiling water is 100 degrees, so the right angle is not boiled... "Fraud" is such a simple thing. , I happen to know a thing or two about it, well, a thing or two about it. "
