Chapter 292: Mr. "Xingxing" Is Getting Angry (Make up for Yesterday)
It turns out that the emperor wanted to find the "Land Abandoned by the Gods" and the daughter who helped Old Liu and the "Elf Queen". The former doomsday witch wanted to stabilize her state...
"The Fool" Klein thought of this and gave Mr. "Tower" a strange look. He couldn't help but lament the relationship between Lao Huang and Lao Liu - what a mess!
It is indeed the "twisted" "Black Emperor" and the incomprehensible and unpredictable "unknown"!
After Klein cursed, he put aside the two pages of "The Hanged Man's" diary and picked up the three pages that Ms. "The Hermit" handed over.
Although these three pages record Russell's early experience, since it was Bernadette who selected him, he still has greater expectations.
As he read, Emperor Russell's experience of visiting the Feysac Empire when he was young gradually unfolded before Klein's eyes.
Some of the contents are laughable, such as Russell and the beautiful woman Fusac drinking wine, but ended up drinking to pieces, and when they woke up, they were glad that it was just a headache and not a pain in the butt...
Some are thought-provoking, such as Russell's investigation and speculation on the origin of the Elf King through the question of "tachyons"...
Some make people sad and nostalgic, such as the blood-based longing for the "Giant King's Court" of the half-giants in Fusac...especially when the bone flute sounds, and Russell also plays a melodious but sad melody. I thought of my "hometown"!
Hometown... After reading this, Klein once again felt that he had a spiritual resonance with the Great Emperor.
The last time was also from a similar Roselle diary...
With a thought in his heart, Klein materialized another page of Russell's diary that he had obtained a long time ago.
“How can I miss my hometown without seeing the bright moonlight? Where are we going through the feasting and feasting?
"Standing in the noisy square, the bone flute is playing melodiously. There is an empty space beside me..."
Looking at the lyrics above that Lao Liu composed on the night of the full moon, Klein sighed again.
Although Russell only wrote the three words "Hometown" in the end and did not express his inner feelings, Klein completely understood the ups and downs of the emperor's mood at that moment, because both he and Russell were like that Like Oneg, the half-giant who plays the bone flute, he has a spiritual and spiritual home.
In addition, this is how the phrase "melodious bone flute" in the lyrics comes from... This should not be plagiarized. Maybe it was really written by Lao Liu on the spot... I just don't know what the lyrics are in the part that was not "sung" later. …
While various thoughts were running through his mind, Klein turned to the last page of his diary.
There is not much useful information in it. It is all about the family ties between Lao Huang and his daughter Huang Beibei. At the end of the diary, he writes:
"...After several days of consideration, I decided to teach Bernadette two Chinese characters as special symbols, and told her that this was a protective spell given to her by her father, so that she would remember it forever.
“She doesn’t need to understand the corresponding meaning, she just needs to remember it.
"These two Chinese characters are:
"home."
Hometown... Klein repeated this phrase again. He finally understood why "Queen of Mysteries" Bernadette chose these three pages of the diary, because they contained the protective symbols left to her by her father.
His eyes were a little hot, as if he saw a river of emotion, flowing quietly on the surface, with countless rapids under the water, rolling endlessly.
Klein immediately withdrew his gaze, stabilized his mood a little, then let the diary disappear, looked up at "Hermit" Cattleya and said:
"What's your problem this time?"
Although it was a question, he had actually anticipated what the other party would ask for.
Hearing this, Cattleya the Hermit, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately said respectfully: "Dear Mr. Fool, I want to know whether these two symbols mean 'spiritual destination'."
As she said that, after asking for permission, she embodied the word "hometown".
Huh? Bernadette actually knows the extended meaning of this word? Did she guess it herself, or did someone reveal it and she wasn't sure whether it was true or not?
Klein was slightly surprised, and then he identified Mr. "Ta" as the first suspect without any hesitation.
Of course, he was surprised, and Mr. Fool couldn't lose his integrity, so he corrected him calmly: "It's not accurate... Together they mean hometown, the destination of the heart and spirit."
Together...the destination of the heart and spirit..."Hermit" Cattleya focused on the last half of the sentence, because she knew very well where the "Mysterious Queen"'s hometown was, and she didn't think it was anything special. place.
"Justice", "The Hanged Man" and others took the opportunity to learn the meaning of two more Russell words in case of emergency.
Only Abner looked a little strange, wondering what he was thinking.
The "Fool" shrouded in gray mist took a deep look at him, then chuckled and said:
"You guys start."
As soon as he finished speaking, "The Hanged Man" Alger immediately looked at "The World" Gehrman Sparrow at the bottom of the long bronze table and asked for his forgiveness because there was something wrong with the "craftsman" he knew. , the commissioned items have not been obtained yet.
Sure enough, something happened... If I hadn't made a small fortune in the "Land of Darkness", I would probably go find that "craftsman" immediately!
Well, there are very few unofficial "craftsmen" who are willing to take orders from unknown sources. If you can keep this one, you have to try your best to keep it... Klein pondered for a moment, and let the dummy "World" respond hoarsely:
"I agree with this postponement, but there will be no next time."
"The Hanged Man" Alger thanked "The World" for its understanding, but this incident attracted the attention of "The Hermit" Cattleya. On the surface, she said she could help, but in her mind she wanted to bypass "The Hanged Man". The idea of connecting directly with that “artisan”.
"The Hanged Man" easily saw the other party's purpose and refused vigilantly.
In his opinion, even if he really couldn't solve the problem of "Artisan", he could still go to Tracy, his current nominal boss.
"Lieutenant General Disease" is currently charmed by "Tower", and all he thinks about is "fighting the slave trade", but he is not interested in "craftsmen".
And "Hermit" Cattleya did not dwell on this matter, and instead looked at "Justice" Audrey:
"The 'Dream Walker' trait she promised you is ready and will be given to you after the party."
she? "Justice" Audrey was stunned at first, but soon realized that she understood that this "she" refers to the "Queen of Mystery".
She went to explore the "City of Miracles" with Mr. "Tower" and the "Mysterious Queen", but because the "Mysterious Queen" peeked into the "Dream Labyrinth Tower", they encountered great danger and had to terminate the adventure.
For this reason, the "Mysterious Queen" did promise to give herself a "Dream Walker" trait as an apology.
After so long, the "Queen of Mystery" still remembered that she was such a trustworthy person... "Justice" Audrey muttered in her heart, but on the surface she nodded slightly and said, "I understand."
Next, after "Stars" and "Moon" each agreed with "Sun" to trade some spiritual materials unique to Silver City, the transaction ended.
Klein asked "The World" Gehrman Sparrow to get in front of Mr. "The Hanged Man", looked around and said:
"Zarathul, the leader of the 'Secret Order', has come to Backlund and has had certain contacts with some members of the Loen royal family."
"Treading on the Stars"
Of course, his attention was still focused on Mr. "Tower".
Although such matters are more suitable to be asked in private, Klein has long discovered that in crowded situations, especially those with beautiful ladies, Mr. "Tower" has a stronger desire to talk and reveals more.
Zaratul? !
Although Mr. "World" had already told the news about Zaratul as an angel in previous gatherings, the members of the Tarot Club were still far away from that level and did not pay much attention to it.
But things are different now... Among the people present, except for "The Hanged Man", "The Hermit" and "The Sun", the rest all live in Backlund. The arrival of an angel from a secret organization is enough to make them extremely vigilant.
This time, they all had a premonition: something big was going to happen in Backlund! Otherwise it cannot be explained why so many angels are arriving one after another!
"The Hermit" Cattleya was even more reminded of the whereabouts of the "Queen of Mysteries" in recent months. She felt that she spent a large part of her time in Backlund and never left even after becoming an "angel".
Abner on the other side naturally noticed the eyes of "the world" looking at him, but what should he say? Could he still reveal that Zarathul is actually his vest?
The fewer people know about this, the better, otherwise the secret will inevitably be leaked... After all, many extraordinary abilities in this world are unreasonable.
However, it seems impossible not to say a few words... After all, with my "temperament", if I don't reveal something useful, it will arouse suspicion.
The members of the Tarot Society suspected that nothing was wrong, but it would not be good if someone with ulterior motives could use this to get a glimpse of the details of "Zarath".
While his thoughts were spinning, Abner coughed and said with a smile: "Don't pay too much attention to Zaratul, her biggest enemy now is actually Amon."
Amon? Hearing the name, "Star" Leonard immediately became confused.
In reality, he was in the "enemy territory" of Induo Port. The Tarot Society originally wanted to take a leave of absence, but because they finally locked the location of the "black blade" that killed the Viscount, and it was not convenient to do so at the moment, they decided to take a leave of absence. Captain Ste gave all the team members an hour's rest to recharge their batteries in preparation for the "Twilight Ceremony" in the evening.
"Mr. Tower, has Amon also entered Backlund?" Leonard asked nervously.
If so, after the current field mission is completed, he will consider going to other cities to hide for a while.
"No, Amon hasn't dared to enter Backlund recently..." Abner shook his head.
But soon, when the goddess starts to pretend to be digesting the uniqueness of the "God of Death", Amon will send a clone to test it.
After all, she suffered a lot of losses in Tingen before, and she must find out what happened.
And the clues she obtained through "decryption" must point to Backlund.
Abner didn't say the next few words, so Leonard relaxed a little, then skipped the current topic and shared his own information:
"Ince Zangwill, the defected bishop of the 'Church of the Night', is still staying in Indo Port."
While he was speaking, he looked at the "World" Gehrman who had taken action.
