Secret: The years I served as a foreign aid for the Aurora Club

Chapter 451 What are you talking about?

733
Seeing the team of seven or eight people gradually approaching his position, most of whom were wearing monocles of various styles, Klein's expression quickly turned ugly.

He opened his mouth, then paused for two seconds and asked:

"When did this special kind of jewelry become popular in Yuecheng?"

The Outer God was leisurely studying a completely black mushroom. This kind of mushroom used to absorb and remove toxins was not edible, and it was not even recommended to touch it directly with the skin, but it was a very interesting research object. Although He had already read the experimental report, the mid-term checklist and the summary report that Frank had sacrificed to Him, He did not mind touching and studying these interesting mushrooms himself.

These things are indeed poisonous, but what’s the point to a dead body without even any internal organs?
His vessel is now less than 1.8 meters tall and weighs only 20 kilograms. Under the same conditions, the only one lighter than him is the highland mummy.

"Accessories? Oh... those things you put on your eyes?"

After about five seconds, the Outer God realized that Klein was talking to Him. Recalling his own personality, He said honestly:
"I don't know when it became popular, I wasn't in the city during this time."

"If you have any questions, I think the high priest should know the answers."

Hearing this, Klein frowned and looked at Him with an inquiring look, but He was studying the mushrooms and did not notice.

He scratched the skin of the pure black mushroom with his fingernails and checked the inside which was completely diseased due to the toxins. He used more than ten mushrooms to absorb all the toxins from the monster. These mushrooms must have amazing toxins, but the essence of these toxins is actually a curse... The thing that the God-forsaken Land lacks the most is curses, and He knows curses very well. He can play with these curses. He also provided Frank with at least five different types of mushrooms for improvement, but unfortunately Frank did not do any of them due to his own limitations.

He remembered that Frank also went to his captain to apply for a promotion opportunity. The captain said that the formula of the "Tillage" potion was monopolized by the Church of Mother Earth and it was not easy to find in the wild. You should go back and wait. If things go well, there should be results within ten years.

Frank had to give up for the time being.

After studying the black mushroom in his hand, he snapped his fingers, and the toxin inside the mushroom was transferred to one of his fingers in the form of a curse. The finger immediately turned black and began to rot, while the mushroom turned back to the milky white color that had never been used.

Then He put the curse back, picked up some mushrooms from the ground, and secretly put them in His pocket.

Klein took in all the strange behaviors of this strange human who called herself "Leah" and came up with a strange guess.

In the distance, a group of Amons, no, people from Moon City were approaching.

Just by looking at their appearance, Klein couldn't tell if these people were parasitized. After all, the high priest said that this type of jewelry was just beginning to circulate in Moon City, and according to Hermes' judgment, the dreams of the people here were basically normal, with no signs of large-scale parasitism.

The leader saw the expressionless face of the messenger and pinched his right eye socket nervously. Immediately, he saw that the messenger's expression became more ferocious.

Isn't it said that this is something that "fools" love?
He felt at a loss.

The high priest who had met Klein yesterday came up at the right time. Although he was also very curious why the "Messenger of Fools" showed such a subtle expression to the "Symbol of Fools", he was very rational and did not ask.

Nim thought for a moment and answered for the others:

"We want to first listen to the teachings of your Lord and feel His glory."

Although they had believed in The Fool for several months, Moon City did not have a figure like Derrick who could serve as a link. All subsequent missionary work depended on the goodwill and great deeds of the real Creator who had come here before.

Moon City established a church and festival for The Fool out of gratitude, and received a regular supply of food from The Fool, but other than that, there was not much communication. The Fool hadn't even compiled his own origins, let alone given them the Holy Scriptures.

Now, their expectations of the ancient sun god have been shattered, and they have no choice but to believe in "The Fool". Naturally, they need to learn new scriptures from this messenger of God to enrich the content of future scriptures and make it easier for them to preach when they return.

Klein nodded slightly, and as he turned the barbecue skewer he summoned from the pores of history, he spoke:
"You can sit down and listen."

When the seven or eight Moon City residents sat down opposite the campfire, he said solemnly:
"I came from the Giant King's Court, and the Angel of Destiny brought me here."

As he spoke, he glanced to the side with the corner of his eye, and saw that the guy with strange behavior had walked to the other side of the campfire at some point and sat with Yuecheng's team waiting to be preached to. They looked very harmonious.

This was a term that all Moon City residents were familiar with. They immediately perked up and turned their attention away from the food roasting on the bonfire and towards Gehrman Sparrow.

"Ouroboros...why did He bring you in?"

The Lord of Decay began to think about this question with some curiosity: "Ouroboros has already chosen God, and you are walking on this land with a mysterious fate. He actually let you in. Is it because of Medici's face?"

A Moon City resident wearing a monocle who was sitting next to Him suddenly turned his head slightly without making a sound, as if he had noticed something, but then he frowned and turned his head back, as if he didn't see that there was someone sitting next to him at all.

This little episode went unnoticed by anyone.

Next, Klein described the status of Silver City and the situation outside the Cursed Land as before, and talked about the city-state ruins he had seen along the way.

Hearing this, the residents of Yuecheng sometimes sighed, sometimes yearned, sometimes felt unbelievable, sometimes felt empathy and were overwhelmed with grief.

Klein suddenly stopped talking halfway, took back the long iron-black skewer in his hand, put it to his mouth, and bit off a mushroom.

The rich gravy then oozed out, washing his mouth with a slightly hot feeling.

Klein closed his eyes in satisfaction, and the throats of some of the residents of the Moon City rolled unconsciously. Telling stories to a group of "Amons" made Klein, who already had an extremely strong psychological quality, feel very uncomfortable. Fortunately, the deliciousness of the mushrooms was real.

There seemed to be only three swallowing sounds just now...

Klein's heart sank slightly.

The human body's instinctive reaction is a wonderful thing. The people of Moon City have eaten mushrooms and love mushrooms. It is not yet lunch time, so they will definitely react to Klein's behavior of eating mushrooms. However, Amon may not have these instinctive reactions - of course, this is not certain.

If his test this time is reliable, then only three of the ten people in front are not Amon.

It's really creepy that three normal Moon City residents came here surrounded by a group of Amons pretending to be their compatriots.

“You can eat together too,” Klein said.

Without waiting for the people of Moon City to respond, he picked up the topic he had left off and continued talking until he heard the voice reciting the honorable name of Mr. Fool coming from the gray mist.

Seeing that High Priest Nim was listening intently and was deeply moved, Klein spoke carefully:

"There are many other ways to make the gray mist react, but they all have to do with my Lord."

This was a reasonable guess, because there was more than one person suspended, and there was more than one way to enter the gray fog. If Emperor Roselle came here with the mysterious silver medal he imitated, there was a high probability that this invisible barrier would mutate. Of course, the prerequisite might be that the emperor belonged to one of the three paths: "Fortune Teller", "Apprentice" and "Thief".

Klein carefully observed the people's expressions and found that among the ten people, High Priest Nim behaved the most normally. Some of the people wearing monocles looked thoughtful, some were touched, and some touched their chins and pinched their eye sockets, looking like what Amon should look like.

The guy with strange behavior did not show any abnormality. He listened to him with his chin on his hand, as if he was still looking forward to what would happen next.

Seeing that Nim and the others did not raise any questions, Klein pretended not to see these Amons and said warmly:
"From what I have observed, there is not only one extraordinary path for Moon City."

The gray-haired Nim did not hide anything and simply responded:

"Yes, when we were chosen to come to Moon City, God consciously made the extraordinary paths comprehensive. Unfortunately, after so many years and one disaster after another, the potion formulas and extraordinary materials of many paths have been lost."

"Which way did you come from?" Klein asked casually as he watched the residents of Moon City roast mushrooms using monster bones.

"I am the 'Night Watcher'." Nim said frankly.

Sequence 4 "Night Watcher" of the "Night" pathway? Klein nodded slightly and asked:
"Has anything unusual happened near this gray fog?" Nim, whose face was covered with wrinkles, thought for ten seconds and said:
"Have."

Klein's heart moved, and he asked calmly on the topic:

"What kind of anomaly?"

Nim glanced at the fragrant mushrooms, considered his words and said:
"A hill suddenly disappeared, leaving only a deep pit. There were no signs of explosions in the area, and no soil was scattered around."

What's going on? It's a weird scene... Klein threw the mushroom roots into the fire to use them as fuel, and asked without any change in expression:
"Did you do any further research?"

"Yes." Moon City High Priest Nim nodded and said, "An investigation team encountered a demon wolf there. It was not a rotten or mutated monster demon wolf, but the original kind of demon wolf."

Demonic wolf? Klein didn't expect to hear such information. His pupils changed slightly as he asked:
"What does the demon wolf look like?"

Nim took a deep breath unconsciously and said:
"It's the same as the demon wolf described in ancient literature, but even bigger. Even if all eight of its legs were on the ground at the same time, it would still be as tall as two or three people combined.

"Its fur is not pure black, giving people a dark and deep feeling. Its eyes are very strange, most of the pupils are black, and there is a tuft of short gray hair on the top of its head..."

This... who is this? Is it the "God of Wishes" of ancient times mentioned by the Red Angel, the Dark Wolf Kotar? It actually came to the easternmost part of the God-Forsaken Land, came near the seal, and was related to a mutation? If the power that caused the disappearance of the Western Continent really came from the "Source Castle", it would be normal to attract the mythical creature corresponding to the "Miracle Master"... Klein frowned slightly and said:

"It didn't attack your investigation team?"

Klein intentionally used it instead of Him so as not to scare the people of Moon City.

In his opinion, it would be very easy for the dark wolf Kotal to destroy an investigation team, and he could even turn Moon City into his "secret puppet kingdom" without paying too much price. However, this mythical creature seemed to have let Moon City go.

If Klein had not looked at the "spiritual lines" of Nim, Russ and others in advance and confirmed their status, he would definitely suspect that the people he was talking to were just some secret dolls.

At the same time, he suddenly thought of the prophecy that Hermes had made before he left. The general meaning of the prophecy was that "the potion formula and ritual clues he was looking for would be answered in the God-forsaken Land." Could the appearance of the "God of Wishes" be the answer? How to get it? Capture Him? Make a wish to Him and let Him tell me the ritual of promotion?

Klein was a little confused for a moment.

"No, it left in a hurry." Moon City High Priest Nim said truthfully.

Leaving in a hurry? Hmm, is this the character of the "God of Wishes"?
That shouldn't be the case. I remember that Silver City has explored more than one secret puppet city. The Dark Wolf Kotar is definitely not a high-ranking person who would easily let go of a human who witnessed him... So, what scared him so much that he fled in such a hurry, not even caring about silencing the person who saw him... Or, is it that the Moon City people who were guarded here by the ancient sun god's oracle have some special characteristics, and the Dark Wolf doesn't want to attack them unless it is necessary? Klein continued to ask without any change in his speed:

"Did it leave any trace?"

"No." Nim shook his head firmly, "Except for the hill turning into a deep pit, we didn't find anything unusual."

Klein's thoughts raced, and he tried to ask from another angle:
"When did this happen?"

The more he knows about an event or object in the past, the more he can touch upon it in the mist of history.

Nim thought about it and said:

"One year, five months and ten days ago."

He immediately explained:
“There are so few things worth recording, I am deeply impressed.”

一年五个月零十天前……当前是1350年11月8日，倒推回去就是1349年6月28日……这……克莱恩的右手突然轻微地震颤了一下。

His pupils and his expression are normal, but this is the result of the Joker's deliberate control.

He remembered very clearly that June 1349, 6 was the day he "traveled" through time and became Klein Moretti. It was also the day he repeated the luck-changing ceremony and truly entered the "Source Castle"!

……

As he listened, he became distracted and began to think about the future of mankind, the truth of the universe, the true meaning of the convergence of paths, and when this cycle would end. The Outer God did not regain his attention until he heard the word "demon wolf". He listened carefully to Nim's description of the demon wolf and confirmed that it was the guy he had seen, the bastard who treated him like a kite and ran away for a whole day.

"Why did He come here two years ago? Did I misunderstand history and the future? No, He will definitely come here in the future, and it won't be long."

"Klein's expression is a bit strange." His attention was quickly drawn away again. He looked curiously at Klein who was talking to High Priest Nim, and caught the fleeting shock on his face and in his heart. "Is there anything special about this time?"

One year, five months and ten days ago, in June of 1349? The Outer God touched his chin. If his record was correct, this time should be a few months before Edward was preparing for the God’s Descent Ceremony of the True Creator. More than two months later, the God’s Descent Ceremony was successfully held, allowing the True Creator to swallow his own curse and land normally.

What is special about this time point for Klein?
Oh, Klein should have already had Sefirah Castle at that time. Does it have anything to do with Sefirah Castle?

Due to insufficient information, He could not think further.

At this time, Klein was still talking to the high priest:
"Has anything like this happened in the past two or three thousand years?"

"No." Nim gave a very firm answer.

"Two hundred and eight years ago, was there anything special?" Klein asked.

That was the time when Emperor Roselle "traveled" to this world.

Nim hesitated for two seconds and said, "I can't tell you the exact answer. I need to go back and look through the relevant records. Fortunately, the data and documents from the last three hundred years have not been destroyed."

At this point, he added:
"My limited impression tells me that there shouldn't be anything special."

If this is true, then the cause of the change here and the appearance of the Dark Demon Wolf was that I entered the gray fog and bound the "Source Castle" to myself? Klein nodded slightly, without asking any more questions, and simply said:
"Tell me where the pit is."

TBC
------

The Moon City resident with a huge tumor on his neck whispered, "He seems to have thought of something. Do you want to steal his idea?"

The woman sitting next to him shook her head:
"We are only Sequence 4 at best, so we will be discovered when we steal. It's okay if he only finds you, but if he notices us, we will lose these clones in vain."

"He probably won't attack us rashly, because he has no way to use a ritual to drive us away now." Amon, who spoke first, pinched his right eye socket out of habit, and then remembered that he didn't wear a monocle when he went out. "If he attacks, it would be equivalent to killing our parasite. Besides, there are ten of us here, and he has no help. If a conflict really comes, he may not necessarily win."

"Don't you want to see his expression of despair and struggle when he finds out the truth but is powerless to do anything? I think that must be very interesting."

The several clones sitting around were obviously persuaded. They looked at each other and were eager to try.

"Then, how do we scare him?" The female resident was also unable to resist the temptation of other Amons. Of course, if she continued to resist others firmly, she would be excluded by the Amons and even forced to merge.

"He's going there soon. We can take advantage of him letting his guard down..."

Amon was speaking in a low voice when he suddenly stopped talking. He looked around and stared at the clone with a tumor on his neck with wide eyes:
"You just said that there are ten clones here?"

“I only saw nine!”

"How can there be only nine? I can't handle so many tricksters." The clone said nonchalantly. He was about to point out the number to the clone when he was suddenly patted on the shoulder. A human who seemed to have suddenly appeared in the Amons' vision patted him on the shoulder.

"What are you talking about?"

The Outer God ripped off the monocle from the face of the clone next to him and put it on his right eye:
"Let me hear it, too."
