Chapter 181 Gray Fog
434
Medici didn't feel disappointed when he didn't answer, he just thought it was a slang he didn't know.
"alright."
He turned his head back to the two girls lying on the carpet and said, "First of all, you, little witch."
"What's your elder's name?"
After being asked this question, Tracy, who was pretending to be dead, slowly opened her eyes and struggled to support her body with one arm.
Her expression was sad and resolute, revealing a completely different beauty from the previous strong one.
During this process, Klein failed to look away several times and almost couldn't help but reach out to help lift her up. He secretly smacked his lips, every move of the witch who was in a state of enchantment at any time was really moving enough.
"I..." Tracy bit her lip and lowered her head. Her long black hair was spread loosely, covering her face.
"my mother……"
Medici burst out laughing, and while laughing, he gestured to the frightened Tracy to continue.
Tracy's head was so low that it was almost touching the ground, which made people suspect that the high sequence in the adjacent path could also be a strong deterrent.
"My mother's name... is Caterina Pellet." She murmured. Despite Medici's uncontrollable ridicule just now, she felt more relaxed as if she had let go of something, and she spoke smoothly. A lot.
"She - she is very strong, countless times stronger than me, and she doesn't seem to age. She also has a very high status in, well, the sect, second only to some high-ranking people I have never met."
Medici did not comment on the little witch's words. He turned around and reached out to pat the table behind him, causing Traynor, who was typing "ta da da", to raise his head and ask him:
"Did you bring anything back?"
Traynor didn't speak. A small shadow ran out of his shadow. Riel held a half-eaten female arm in his mouth. He glanced at Medici resentfully, and then stretched out his claws to scratch Traynor. trousers legs and said vaguely:
"So this isn't a snack for me?!"
"Yes. It can be," Traynor said. "Bring me that bracelet."
Riel's furrowed brows relaxed, and he ran back to the shadow with his bloody arm in his mouth. A few seconds later, a diamond bracelet was thrown out of Traynor's shadow and fell on the carpet.
The two hunters looked at each other for three seconds. After a round of intense eye contact and a competition to see who was lazier, Traynor bent down, reached out and picked up the bracelet, and handed it to Medici.
cat……? Because the image of half an arm floating in the air was too strange and terrifying, Klein couldn't help but turn on his spiritual vision.
He secretly glanced at the talking cat, not counting the demon dog. This was the first time he saw an extraordinary creature that could communicate normally and travel freely through the spirit world. He felt very novel and immediately thought of "justice" The lady's pet dog accidentally ate the potion.
Medici took the diamond bracelet and found an extremely hidden brand inside.
Just when He decided to trigger the brand first, a faint spirituality suddenly came from the brand.
"Your witch mother is really interested in you." Red Angel played with the bracelet for a while, put it aside, and said to Tracy, "Okay, you can stay here for a while, you are next - Xiao Wu Face person.”
"Thank you..." Tracy moved weakly to the side and fell on the carpet.
Klein's alarm suddenly rang when his name was called.
"I'm not interested in your purpose, but your courage and recklessness are worth seeing." Medici held his chin and said, "The completion of the plan is due to you, and I am not someone who ignores rewards and punishments. Show your true face. , I will consider whether to spare your life based on your attitude."
Klein fell silent.
He was silent for nearly ten seconds. Time seemed to suddenly become very, very slow, and the air in the room became more and more solemn.
The sound of the typewriter stopped. In fact, this was not a difficult request. It was even quite loose, and there was a suspicion of letting someone off the hook. However, the faceless man did not act immediately, and the other two people couldn't help but turn their attention to him.
"What?" Medici's voice became a little dangerous, "Do you want to disobey orders?"
This... if you burn me into a ball of coke now, maybe I can feel more relaxed... Klein felt a little dumbfounded and his scalp was numb. He finally overcame the shame in his heart half an hour ago and put on I had to wear a skirt, and now I have to overcome my shame again and wear a skirt in front of so many people in the face of "Gehrman Sparrow"... Oh my God... what is this!
Suddenly, he closed his eyes, stretched out his right hand, and brushed it on "Elaine's" face.
Under the gaze of three pairs of eyes, the soft lines of Elaine's pretty and petite face began to become tough and masculine.
Tsk, he is indeed a man... Elaine, did you really betray me for him? No, maybe you were forced... Tracy turned her head away in disgust.
Trainor thought that at least one of the two girls should be real, but it turned out that they were both fake. He felt very bored and continued to type on the keyboard, and sorted and bound the letters he had written, and secretly dedicated them to Aurora Club.
"Elaine's" frame grew larger, stretching her golden-red dress to a precarious position, and the straps were tightly tied around her waist.
The soft long red hair retracted and was dyed black from the roots, and the beautiful green eyes also became darker. In just over ten seconds, the soft red-haired Elaine turned into a tall figure with shoulders A broad, serious man.
Medici's mouth pursed again and again, and finally burst out into a burst of laughter that almost brought down the roof. Passengers upstairs and downstairs all stuck their heads out of the windows to see if someone had set off fireworks.
Calm down, calm down, think about the character of Gehrman Sparrow, think about the role...
Klein took a deep breath. He had already made a big blush while changing clothes before, but now he felt like he was losing everything. The remaining redness on "Elaine's" face quickly faded away, his lips tightened, his expression was solemn, and he entered the "crazy adventurer" state.
Klein was a little embarrassed when he saw himself in such an image wearing a skirt, but he was just uncomfortable with it. He was not the kind of person who wanted to dig a hole and bury himself on the spot. Two self-breakthroughs made him feel that he had discovered the true meaning of "Faceless Man" - the best way to eliminate shame is to face it head-on. As long as I don't show embarrassment, others will be embarrassed!
This is not to say that he gradually fell in love with similar things, but in the process of pretending to overcome the mental barrier, his self-awareness appeared to be detached to a certain extent, as if his soul had flown out of the body and watched calmly from a condescending attitude. "Elaine" wore women's clothing, and even watched Gehrman Sparrow wearing a skirt to negotiate with people with a cold expression, thinking that this was a necessary means for a mission, or a way to save one's life, and thought that there was nothing shameful or strange about it. .
In short, he gave up thinking.
There is no element of vulgarity or shame in it. On the one hand, it is the perspective of God across the screen, with a detached attitude, and on the other hand, it is a serious role, living the plot. The two are perfectly integrated, regardless of each other, and there will be no psychological effects caused by playing a game. disorder, cognitive impairment.
This is the "faceless man" state you want!
You can pretend to be anyone but yourself.
While immersing yourself in the role and playing it to the best of your ability, you can detach yourself from emotions, look at it calmly, and through comparison, recognize yourself and find your truest self!
"Both integrating and withdrawing... This is the practical application of the most important rule of the Faceless Man." Klein suddenly became calm, and the remaining shame and the changed mentality coexisted at the same time.
He looked at himself with that detached attitude, the attitude of playing a role-playing game, and carefully looked for where he was not good enough.
As he was thinking, he noticed that Tracy was looking at him with complicated eyes.
Hermann turned his head calmly and said to her without changing his expression:
"First meeting, 'Lieutenant General Disease'."
You'd better think this is "a crazy adventurer can use any means for the mission"... Klein, hiding in the shell, thought silently, and further used his eyes to intimidate the other party.
What a terrifying person... He can even abandon his own image. No wonder he has the courage to single-handedly come to my ship to assassinate me, and he almost succeeded... Tracy looked away in fear and discomfort.
"I haven't forgotten to play even now, and I even found some feeling. It's very good." Medici said half-appreciatively, half-sarcastically, and then turned back to ask Traynor, "Is he a member of the Secret Order?" member?"
"I have only cooperated with them a lot. The Secret Order has no obligation to report their mid-sequence members to me."
Traynor replied: "But I haven't met him, and he doesn't seem to know me, so that shouldn't be the case."
Is this a powerful member of the Sauron family who works closely with the Secret Order? Yes, the intelligence department, the Sauron family controls the intelligence department... Klein suddenly thought of the ambassador and Rosago. Under Hermann's calm surface, the fortune teller Klein was sweating profusely.
Besides, it’s just me. Don’t any of you think it’s annoying for me to dress like this? ! No one thinks I should be asked to change my clothes?
However, none of them doubted that the face of "Gehrman" was also fake. Klein took the risk to hide his true face and succeeded.
If there are really blind pirates spreading the rumor that "Gehrman Sparrow is a pervert", even if they jump into the five seas, they won't be able to clear it out, and it has nothing to do with me, Klein Moretti!
After waiting for a while, and seeing that none of them had any intention of speaking, Klein bit the bullet and let his flesh squirm, forming a normal coat under his skirt. Then, he reached out and pulled off the straps around his waist, taking the skirt off of himself.
Very good, no one cares... Klein felt that the digestion progress of the potion was rising like a rocket, and most of it had been digested tonight.
"Maybe he's a hidden member." Traynor glanced at Gehrman again and said casually, "His acting is very good."
Medici nodded in approval and suddenly asked: "What is your belief?"
Klein thought about it carefully, but found that he could not figure out the purpose of the other party's question, so he replied: "The goddess of the night."
"He? Well..."
Medici whispered, and suddenly sneered: "Boy, I suddenly don't want to keep you alive."
His original intention was just to scare the faceless man across from him to see how he would react, or to think of a way to use his eloquence to convince himself to spare his life, but he didn't expect that at this moment there was a sudden knock on the door, and the sound was The rhythm formed a secret signal - the real Elaine was coming.
Medici deliberately showed a flaw and turned his eyes in the direction of the door. Just when everyone in the room's attention was temporarily attracted by the knock on the door, Herman suddenly stepped back. He took a huge step and took four steps back. I just happened to fall off the balcony!
"The action is pretty good..." Medici was about to praise him again when he suddenly saw a thin gray mist flashing past where the faceless man fell. The red angel suddenly stood up and turned into a gust of hot wind. Came to the balcony.
He jumped down, grabbed the balcony railing with one hand and reached down with the other, and just happened to grab Klein's back collar!
Enter Sefirah Castle at the moment of falling, grab Azik's bronze whistle and leave, then return to the real world the moment he lands, blow the whistle and escape - Klein's life-or-death speed escape plan was cruelly interrupted by Medici. When he returned to the real world, he immediately felt difficulty breathing, as if he was hanging, and he was still holding Azik's copper whistle tightly in his hand.

Elaine entered the door and immediately saw her great-great-grandfather Traynor. She hurriedly saluted, and then saw "Lieutenant General Disease" lying on the carpet in the living room, his right arm missing and as angry as a thread.
Elaine's face turned pale slightly, and her mood was a little complicated. Tracy looked at her with sad eyes. She hesitated in place for a long time, but still could not open her mouth to plead for mercy. Instead, he chose to sit aside and stop looking at her.
At this moment, a red-haired man suddenly came out of the balcony, holding a young man with frowning eyebrows but unable to get away. Elaine and the young man glanced at each other coincidentally, and suddenly she was attracted by the young man's coldness. The ruthless eyes felt familiar.
It was him... She immediately thought of the coachman.
The red-haired man dragged the young man to the living room, frowned at Elaine and the half-dead Tracy, and then said to Traynor who was playing fish and cat after finishing his work:
"I'm going to the living room. I have something to tell him."
"You look at them."
Traynor nodded, then watched the Red Angel walk past him, enter the house and slam the door.
Living room.
Medici threw Klein into the open space in the room, and Klein stood firm with his exquisite body control.
Red Angel glanced at the whistle held in Klein's hand, narrowed his eyes slightly, and suddenly smiled:
"Oh it's you."
"What a brave little brat, how dare you show off your fake face to others now?"
Klein sighed secretly and activated the matryoshka technique. Gehrman Sparrow's face slowly squirmed, and soon he transformed into Sherlock Moriarty.
Sherlock's face is still very close to mine, and it can be understood as what I look like after growing a beard... This is not a disguise... Klein secretly argued for himself.
"The gray fog is the same as the fog barrier that separates the east and west continents. Is he the person the Lord is waiting for? Or maybe it's someone behind him."
The two of them had their own thoughts, and Medici spoke first:
"Did you come from behind the fog of the Eastern Continent?"
Klein was puzzled by this puzzling question and shook his head honestly, not wanting to say more and expose himself.
"Who is the person behind you?"
Hearing this question, Klein went back to the day when he confessed to Mr. Azik.
It is extremely unwise to pretend to be a ghost in front of a strong person, and if the other party asks you to pray to the great existence "The Fool", the lie will be self-defeating. Klein said as calmly as possible:
"There is no one behind me but myself."
Medici touched his chin and pondered for a moment. Klein suddenly felt as if his head was on fire, and a hot will connected with his spirit. He seemed to have suddenly reached an extremely open place, mentally connected to many places.
A moment later the fiery spirit drove him out again.
"You didn't lie."
Medici frowned: "Your answer means nothing to me... I have to let the Lord come and see you."
After that, he started praying regardless of Klein's reaction. Medici stared at Klein and said:
"The Lord who created all,"
"The Master Behind the Curtain of Shadows,"
Fuck... isn't this the honorable name of the "True Creator"! Is this a strong member of the Aurora Society? ! Klein almost exploded.
They are hunters... the powerful hunters of Intis... There is also an international organization that believes in the "True Creator", the Iron Cross! I have fallen in front of the "True Creator"!
"The fallen nature of all living things."
Medici watched Klein's face change rapidly, like a colorful revolving lantern, and almost burst out laughing.
"Lord, I met a man on the sea who was wrapped in the same gray mist as the seal of the Eastern Continent."
"He is Sequence 6 of the 'Soothsayer' path."
435
As soon as he finished speaking, the room suddenly became dark, the shadows and dark atmosphere swallowed up the light, and Medici was like a candle that glowed faintly.
The spiritual power created a whirlpool in the spacious living room, and Klein couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body. He worriedly thought about whether he could be resurrected normally if he was contaminated or killed by the evil god.
No... at least what is certain is that I will definitely become a believer in the "True Creator", just like the people of the Aurora Society. I don't know if there is any way that Origin Castle can change my understanding of myself... Klein thought in his heart bitter.
A pair of scarlet eyes opened in mid-air, first looking at Medici, and then instantly falling on Klein.
Under the gaze of the real god, Klein felt his body shaking violently uncontrollably. His face squirmed again, his beard disappeared, and he turned into the real "Cline Moretti".
Medici yelled.
Then, Klein's spirit suddenly rose, and the scene in front of him changed. He saw layers of curtains with mysterious patterns. If Klein looked at those patterns carefully, he would feel his head ache.
Behind the curtain, a vague figure was facing him.
The figure spoke first, with a heavy and solemn voice: "Who are you?"
"I am Klein Moretti." He suddenly found that he could not control his mouth, and said all the series of thoughts he had after this question, "I am Zhou Mingrui, I am not from this world. people..."
Klein's hair stood on end. After saying these words, he immediately interrupted his thoughts and his voice stopped at the same time.
"Chinese? That's it..."
Klein's pupils shrank suddenly: "You..."
The feet behind the shadow curtain were a little closer to him, and Klein could almost see the blurry outline of a person.
The figure suspected of being the evil god "True Creator" asked again:
"Do you know what the gray fog represents?"
Klein's mouth started to move on its own again: "I know it's called Source Castle, and it seems to be a high-sequence item related to the fortune teller's path."
"Who told you this name? Heiye? Or the person who calls himself Tianzun?"
"A person who calls himself Heavenly Lord? I have never seen such a person." Klein also expressed his doubts, "It's Azik Eggers."
The figure was silent for a while, seeming to be thinking:
"How did you wake up?"
"Wake up?" Klein answered these strange questions one after another. He felt that they were very strange, but they seemed to contain the secret of his time travel. In addition, the "True Creator" understood his language just now, and something happened in his heart. A terrifying thought.
"I was resurrected in the body of Klein Moretti, who lost control and committed suicide because of studying Antigonus's notes..."
"Have you ever seen anyone else like you?"
"I met...Edward Vaughan."
"He?" There was an obvious fluctuation in the evil god's voice, "Does he know you?"
"I know..." Klein said bravely, "I was killed by Him once, but I was resurrected again..."
"Can you be resurrected? How many times have you been resurrected?"
"Twice... once..." Klein's scalp was numb. "The 'True Creator' descended from the gods and was killed by Ince Zangwill, and once was killed by Edward Vaughn..."
After a while, the evil god said: "Your awakening is also a resurrection. You can be resurrected once more."
"Use your life carefully, your fate is more cruel than you think. If necessary, you can recite my name."
etc! What does it mean! Can I still claim to be a favored one in the Aurora Society? ! Klein was so shocked that he almost opened his mouth to speak. He suddenly felt dizzy and was thrown out of this dark space. He saw Medici saying hello to him.
In the Aurora Society's stronghold, the True Creator was sitting on the sofa, his expression so gloomy that he could drip water.
He spoke in ancient Hermetic: "Edward Vaughan!"
"No!"
"Alcatulia Winter!"
"You have seen the people in Huaiyuan Castle! You killed the 'Fool'! But you hid this matter from me!"
A few seconds later, Edward's voice floated into the ears of the true Creator:
"You didn't even ask."
"What's more, this happened before the great smog. I was still in the enemy camp at that time. Isn't it natural to conceal some information?"
His voice changed, and the malice and impatience beneath his words emerged again:
"Then did you tell him this is Earth?"
"If you can't bear it, do you want me to help you?"
The True Creator snorted coldly: "This is our business and you don't need to take care of it."
"In this matter, I will give Klein the same help as I would to prevent you from entering the abyss, if you want to hurt him."
"IMHO--"
The voice of the Outer God lengthened.
"——If you really want to protect him, then peel Origin Castle and destiny away from him. If Klein is not the heir of Tianzun, I naturally have no reason to kill him. This is the fundamental reason."
"How about it, don't you think about it, my friend?"
