Chapter 252: Emlyn's Persistence

After confirming in a second, Klein clasped his hands, leaned forward and said:

"What exactly is it?"

"No, I can't say any more." Emlyn White shook his head resolutely.

Klein, who was worried about being tempted, didn't ask any more questions, and simply analyzed the matter based on the information the vampire had just revealed:

It is related to "The Fool"... Can help Emlyn White solve hidden dangers... There is a high risk... Combined with his previous thoughts, this seems to have indicated that he intends to hold a corresponding ceremony to present the "Fool", that is, I pray, in order to eliminate the psychological suggestion, and gain the long-lost freedom... But this is no longer Emlyn's own ceremony, it comes from the order of a certain big man, and with the pride of this vampire, most of the people who are willing to honor the title of big man are the same For the strong man of the blood clan... why did the blood clan boss send his descendants to pray to the "fool"? They have cooperated with the Aurora Society?

Klein, who was full of doubts, raised his head, looked at the expectant Emlyn, and let out a hey in his heart:

Do you think I will answer your prayers?

He deliberated for two seconds, did not make a suggestion directly, and said instead:

"According to statistics, 30 out of 100 cases of praying to a hidden existence without knowing the situation will not get any response, and 68 cases will encounter various terrible things, thus ruining their own lives, or living is worse than dying , only two cases are likely to succeed and get what they want, but the price they pay for it may not be what they are willing to pay."

As a former keyboard expert, Klein has always believed that when proving a thing or strengthening a certain point of view, only talking about individual cases and special cases, without mentioning the overall sample and statistical data, are all playing hooligans and changing concepts secretly. Generally, in this case, it is accompanied by similar words, for example, I have a friend, a certain girl I know, who is around me.

Therefore, in order to convince Emlyn White, he carefully compiled some data.

Of course, this is not completely unfounded, at least the many files that Klein read when he was in the Nighthawks team stated similar situations.

"Only two cases were successful? Something went wrong in sixty-eight cases?" Emlyn was really frightened, and couldn't help but raised his hand to straighten his hair.

"Basically, this is the degree of danger of what you are going to do. If you are malicious, the risk is even higher than this." Klein responded sincerely.

Emlyn shook his head subconsciously:

"No, no, there is no malice, and, and that big man will protect me during the process.

"

no offence? Um, even if there is malice, you may not know it, you are just a cannon fodder pushed to the front... Klein raised his right palm, and emphasized his tone with gestures:

"This will reduce the risk a lot, but it will never be absent. Can the big man really fight against the hidden existence?"

"...Should, can't." Emlyn replied mutteringly.

"So." Klein spread his hands.

He suddenly smiled and said:

"Emlyn, in fact, you don't need to take this risk at all. Even if you completely believe in the Mother Earth, it won't have any impact on your life. Look at the people of Fenepot, they don't like to eat whatever they like. Wear whatever you want, and do whatever you like. By that time, Father Utravsky will most likely not force you to volunteer at the Harvest Church, and you will get your original freedom.

"Also, I think you have adapted well to the teachings of the Mother Earth, and there is no contradiction."

Emlyn White was silent for a while and said:

"Becoming a believer because I like His ideas is completely different from being forcibly converted into a believer through psychological suggestion. Even if one day, I will indeed turn my back on the moon and believe in the Mother Goddess, I hope it is my free choice , has nothing to do with others, this is the last pride of a blood race."

Klein gave Emlyn a slightly surprised look, but he didn't expect the other party to still be so persistent.

He thought about it for two seconds, didn't try to persuade him any more, and said with a "hmm":

"The question is actually very simple, that is, whether the orders of the big men and the temptation to get rid of hidden dangers can make you have the courage to face a certain degree of danger. If you have the belief to sacrifice your life for it, then the answer is very simple.

"In short, this matter ultimately has to be weighed by yourself."

Emlyn listened with a heavy expression, and instinctively retorted:

"If I really choose to try, it will definitely not be for myself, but for the entire blood race! Solving hidden dangers is just a side benefit!"

For the whole blood race? What can I do to involve the whole blood race? Is that big shot lying to you? Klein laughed and said:

"A vampire who is not strong has a chance to save the entire group, do you believe it?"

"Blood, blood!" Emlyn emphasized, "Besides, my strength is not bad, equivalent to the Sequence 7 of your humans. By the way, I'm still the kind that is good at fighting!"

"As for the question of whether you believe it or not, you won't understand." He stood up and said, "Although your analysis and suggestions have no real meaning, I still have to thank you. Well, the consultation fee is covered by the suitcase from last time." and tin box deductions.”

ah? Klein couldn't react to what the other party was saying for a moment.

After Emlyn left, he suddenly realized:

"Under normal circumstances, aren't the containers in large-amount transactions all gift items?

"This stingy vampire!"

…………

In the darkness where the lightning frequency had not yet recovered, the exploration team from the City of Silver arrived at the periphery of the semi-abandoned temple "on time".

Derrick remembered that when he took the first action, all the animal skin lanterns were extinguished here, and the whole team fell into pure darkness, and he heard the creepy cry from the little boy Jack from the depths of the temple. "Call for help".

According to the guesses of Mister "The Hanged Man" and Miss "Justice", this may be the starting point of our cycle, but why when we wake up, we are in the bonfire camp outside the city, not directly here? Derrick recalled the discussions at the Tarot Club, and at the same time followed the corresponding suggestions, raised his arms, and prayed secretly.

A pure and clear light suddenly bloomed from his body, which stimulated Joshua and other members of the exploration team to quickly put on a fighting stance.

"What happened?" "Demon Hunter" Colin pulled out his straight sword and asked in a deep voice.

Derrick looked left and right in "horrified" and said:

"Your Excellency, I just heard a child shouting 'Help me...save me...'"

He wants to try to see if this is the key point!

"What now?" Colin asked warily.

"Not anymore." Derrick listened carefully.

"Demon Hunter" Colin glanced at Joshua and the others out of the corner of his eye: "Did you hear that?"

"No." The members of the exploration team shook their heads one after another.

Colin only thought for a few seconds before making a decision. He took out a dark blue metal vial from the dark compartment of his belt, and smeared the colorless viscous liquid on his straight sword.

Immediately afterwards, he stabbed the long sword upwards.

Suddenly, the sky was brightly lit, and streaks of silvery snake-like rays of light swam above and quickly spread around.

The silvery-white brilliance instantly enveloped all members of the exploration team, seeming to illuminate everyone's darkest "corner".

Zizizi, the thin silver snake pierced into the void, and ran to nowhere.

Everything quickly calmed down, only the dim light of the animal skin lantern swaying quietly.

Colin closed his eyes half-closed, not knowing what he was sensing. After a full five seconds, he raised his finger forward and said:

"From now on, there can be no negligence, and the alert will be raised to the highest level."

So familiar words... This is not the key to breaking the predicament... Derrick sank his heart and followed the team into the half-abandoned temple without hesitation.

This time, he learned his lesson and stopped looking at the face of the "Fallen Creator". Then, during the process of inspecting the above-ground part, he relied on his initiative and enthusiasm to win over the area where the mural was located.

He carried the animal skin lantern and the "Hurricane Axe", and started operations in a team with a teammate.

After passing through mottled or collapsed walls, he finally arrived at his destination.

As the light of the animal skin lantern moved from far to near, the mural on the wall gradually became clear.

Derrick first looked into the corner, and found the impressive line of strange words.

"Rose of Redemption..." He silently recited the name, raised the animal skin lantern, and carefully examined the details of the mural.

On the mottled wall, the highest point is blurred, a huge black cross, with a shadow that is hard to see the specific shape hanging upside down.

In this background, there is a barren and dead plain.

In the plain, there is a long line of people walking, their target is the high mountain in the distance, and the cross and the upside down person on the top of the mountain.

In this team, some members are still kneeling on the ground, praying devoutly, while others have stood up, facing the strong wind, and walking forward.

Their faces are only briefly outlined, as if to highlight the tattered clothes, only the leader at the front is quite clear.

It was a tall, slender man with silver hair that reached down to his vest.

The man's facial features are soft, his head is drooping, his eyes are closed tightly, and there are layers of radiant wings behind him.

Angel! The rumored angel! Derrick excitedly and secretly observed the situation around the "leader".

Soon, he discovered that under the feet of the man who seemed to be an angel, there was a meandering river shining with waves.

The river kept turning, turned back, injected itself, and became the source!

cycle! This forms a cycle! Derrick suddenly felt that he had grasped a certain key.

In a cycle of experience, there is actually a circular river in the mural on the wall!

The latter is obviously showing or revealing something!

Derrick looked up, and saw the silver-haired angel with innumerable wings, with a gentle face and a little indifference, as if looking down at the river and fate.

Is this the true meaning of Mister Fool's hint? Derrick thought for a while, and decided to give it a try—if he succeeds, he intends to blame the little boy Jack for his abnormality, and if he fails, no one will remember what he has done!

Under the astonished eyes of his teammates, Derrick raised the "Hurricane Axe" and slashed at the river on the mural.

The lightning that just flashed by was triggered, and the silvery white fell on the axe. To read books on this site, please use the latest domain name
