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

Chapter 507 Calling

786
Lady Catelyn and Anne's consciousness suddenly became blurred. They stood there with misty eyes.

Audrey quickly looked around to make sure there was no one else in the corridor. Then she let go of her mother's arm and slowly pulled her arm out, but Lady Catelyn remained motionless.

After using "hypnosis" to temporarily confuse the two people's will, the gold in Audrey's eyes slowly recovered.

Then she turned her head towards the window, and sure enough, she saw the uninvited guest outside, who was wearing a robe and a hood covering his face, walk through the glass window and land gently on the carpet.

"Are you Miss Audrey Hall?" The hood was pulled up a little, revealing the face of a middle-aged man.

Because he had been listening to the mumbling of the real Creator for many years, even though the mumbling was no longer harmful, it still had a significant impact on the spirit of the "Secret Saint". From time to time, Butis' eyes moved strangely, showing a crazy and fierce look.

Facing the stranger's greeting, Audrey frowned slightly, pretending to be thinking, and then asked in a "doubtful" tone:

"who are you?"

In the Aurora Club, except for Ms. D, with whom she occasionally exchanged letters, no one else knew her. Audrey had already thought about what kind of new personality mask she would use in Intis - just a few changes to the normal premise of "Audrey Hall", a girl who was forced to leave home before she was 20 and never returned, a female noble who brought a large dowry and seemed to be married far away but had no fiancé. It would not be surprising if her personality became more suspicious and aggressive when she was alone in a foreign country.

However, she had roughly guessed the other party's identity and purpose.

The High Sequence of the Apprentice Path that suddenly appeared here did not alarm Bishop Elektra and the surrounding Mid-Sequence bodyguards. He was suspected to be a demigod - there was only one possibility, that was a member of the Creator Church who came to take her to Intis.

The only thing Audrey was curious about was the identity of this member.

Because... in the Tarot Club, the "Magician" Fors once mentioned a person who fits his identity very well.

Sure enough, the other party answered her question:

"I am the 'Secret Saint' of the Creator's Church."

Seeing the look of surprise and awe on the face of the super-talented Sequence 5 lady in front of him, he spoke with a hint of pride and directly gave his real name:

"I'll take you to Intis."

"As a future compatriot, you can call me Butis."

Audrey blinked, not trying to hide her surprise. She was sure that the "Secret Saint" had not discovered her true thoughts either.

"It's really him! A traitor of the Abraham family. He was seduced by the 'True Creator' and led many students from other families to rebel against the Abraham family. Then, with the help of the Aurora Society, he became the demigod 'Secret Saint'..."

Is the Intis Psychological Alchemy Association so anxious to take me away? Are they short of manpower? Do they think highly of me and want to leave a good impression on me in this way? Or maybe they are very familiar with the current cold war and immigration policies between the two countries and have determined that I cannot leave with my noble status, even under the normal name of "engagement".

The surprise on Audrey's face didn't last long. She "quickly regained her composure" and asked in confusion, feeling a little surprised that someone had taken her seriously:
"I am honored that the Psychological Alchemy Society has invited a saint like you to pick me up! But, it should not be the agreed departure date yet?"

She calculated the time and felt a little anxious.

The Secret Saint didn't know what Audrey was thinking, nor did he try to understand the inner thoughts of the "audience". He smiled and said bluntly:
"We are already compatriots who belong to the same church and believe in the same Creator. You are outstanding, and the Psychological Alchemy Society values ​​you very much. Secondly, the relationship between the two countries is tense, and the church is worried that you will not be able to leave the country smoothly, so they chose me to bring you back."

Audrey wanted to frown for a moment. The meaning of this sentence was very clear. It was basically equivalent to "international relations are tense now. I am taking a certain risk to come to pick you up in person." The purpose was to make Audrey owe him a favor. She didn't expect that she would owe Hvin Rambis a favor right after she thought about not owing him a favor. Moreover, Audrey didn't want to have any favors with a traitor of the Abraham family. If that was the case, she would rather trick Hvin Rambis before leaving.

But on second thought, Audrey felt relieved.

Owing someone a favor was no big deal. Her next goal was to go to Intis immediately, find a way to get the last missing ingredient in the potion, and then take the potion to the southern continent to save as many people as she could.

It is very dangerous to return to the southern continent. If the "Secret Saint" is willing to help her, she can repay this favor in other ways later.

Thinking of this, Audrey immediately showed a grateful look and agreed:

“I’m so honored!”

"Then I will leave with you now."

Butis was very satisfied with Audrey's attitude, but a little surprised: "Don't you need to say goodbye to your family?"

In his opinion, a girl who is not even 20 years old suddenly has to leave home permanently and go to another country in the name of marriage. In any case, it is worth hugging and crying with her family.

Audrey smiled:

"This day had to come sooner or later, and I've made my decision... Let them think I've left."

After saying that, she quickly lifted her skirt and ran back to her room, where she changed into a set of riding clothes with long trousers and long boots for easy movement. Then she asked Susie to pack up all her clothes, cosmetics and jewelry. Then, she went straight to the laboratory assigned to her by her father, took out all the potion materials that she had stored in it to reinforce many layers of spiritual walls, and placed them in a spare suitcase according to categories.

Audrey's heart was pounding. She picked up her suitcase, returned to the corridor, and began to implant hypnosis into her mother and Anne.

"Audrey left at noon today."

She looked at the faces of her mother and the personal maid who had been with her for more than ten years, and sadness surged in her heart for a moment:
"...Audrey took away all her clothes, jewelry, and all the cash she currently had."

"For safety reasons, she took the dark green carriage, which was inconspicuous. She left from the main gate of the mansion in the afternoon and arrived at the station smoothly... She will go to Enmat Port, and from there take a boat to Bayam, waiting for someone from the Intismontmar family to pick her up."

After saying this, she began to construct dreams for the two of them.

Butis looked at her curiously, watching the noble lady hypnotize everyone in the mansion through psychological suggestion and dream construction one after another. Then, he saw a big golden retriever dragging a large package in its mouth to the corridor with great effort.

He saw "curiosity" in the dog's eyes.

...Extraordinary animal? Butis looked at the golden retriever for a few more times. At this moment, Audrey had finished this big project and ran back quickly:

"I have completed all preparations. We can now set off for Intis."

Just as Butis was about to speak, Audrey's expression suddenly became serious, and she added as if she remembered something:

"By the way, my Dream Walker potion has been completely digested, and the Sequence 4 potion is only missing one auxiliary material. I have found the location for the Sequence 4 promotion ceremony, but in order to prevent the opportunity from being missed, I hope you can notify the Psychological Alchemy Association right now and lend me the auxiliary material I am missing. If I am successfully promoted, I am willing to make more contributions to the church and complete more tasks."

Butis' eyes widened and for a moment he forgot to open the door.

……

A minute later, a spiritual being appeared in a tall building in Trier.

The mansion that once belonged to a great noble and important councillor is now the office building of the former Psychological Alchemy Society and the current Creator Church Special Operations Group. A strange-looking spiritual creature suddenly appeared and flew to one of the rooms as if it was inspired by something.

In this room, an old man is sitting on a soft chair basking in the sun.

He took the paper from the messenger, glanced at it briefly, and laughed softly:
"The only thing missing from the demigod potion is the blood of an old giant dragon. I hope to obtain it by overdrawing my merits in advance. I am willing to pay you back double..."

"He is a confident and proactive child."

With the creaking sound of the soft chair, the old man sat up straight, picked up a small bottle from the surrounding, then cut his finger and let a few drops of golden blood fall into it, emitting a dizzying golden light under the sun.

These drops of blood were specially processed by Him, and there was not much high-level power of mythical creatures left, so it would not drive people crazy when they saw or used it. But it was still a considerable gift, containing more spiritual power than the blood of an ordinary old psychic dragon.

"It's time for some fresh blood here." Finally, the white-haired old man threw the bottle to the messenger, stroked his chin and smiled:
"I should be considered an elderly psychic dragon, right?"

……

"We are about to reach the Cathedral of Light..."

Before Butis could finish his words, he suddenly saw the spirit creature he had just let go running back. Its two little paws were holding a bottle of golden liquid, which it threw directly into Audrey's arms.

Audrey Surprise:
"Let's turn around, sir, and head directly to the Southern Continent! I've decided to get promoted there!"

But the southern continent is... Butis's mind flashed over the divination result of "huge danger". Even a demigod who is good at escaping would come up with such a divination result. Butis didn't even need to think about how extraordinary the danger there was.

"...My mission is to get you to the Cathedral of Light." In short, he didn't want to go.

Audrey understood his implication and immediately pushed Susie next to her over:

"This is my pet, and all my belongings. Please send them all to the Cathedral of Light for safekeeping, and then drop me off in the northern part of the Southern Continent, in the area where the Highland Republic is located. You just need to open the door and let me leave. There is no risk."

Butis looked at Susie, and Susie looked at Butis.

Butis's self-doubting expression was reflected in Susie's clear eyes, which were wide open to show her innocence.

787
After sending all the senior members of the Abraham family to the designated location, the angel whose hair color turned from white to black immediately went straight to his office.

In order to show respect to the gods, inside the Cathedral of Mystery, no one except the God of Mystery can incarnate and transmit data, so He had to use the simplest method, which was to run back.

On the way, someone suddenly called Him:

"Your Highness Edgar! Please wait a moment!"

He turned around and saw an elderly man walking towards him. He was wearing the most common scholarly robe in the church, with a pair of glasses on his nose and a wise light shining in his brass eyes.

He was more patient with the scholar: "What?"

The old scholar smiled and said:

"I am a scholar arranged by the church to work with you to promote archaeological work. I am also the vice president of the National Church College under construction. Today I officially join your project team. May I ask whether we are going to inspect ancient ruins or to restore and organize ancient books and documents in the National Library?"

After hearing that it was a member assigned by the church, Edgar really focused on the other person and looked him up and down:

"reader?"

"Insightful." The old scholar blinked.

"Do you know what I want?"

"Yes." The old scholar said seriously, "You have made great achievements in necromancy magic."

"... Then come on. If you slow down my progress, I will turn you into my zombie." Edgar only now remembered that he had indeed applied for an assistant from the church. At present, it seems that the assistant's professional quality and sequence are worth looking forward to. "What's your name?"

"Dragon Heras." The old scholar pushed his glasses and put on an intellectual smile. "You can just call me Dragon."

……

Da da.

Under the silver moonlight.

Klein raised his head and looked at the source of the distant footsteps behind him.

A figure was walking out of the dark void, his face was three-dimensional and deep, cast in a deep shadow by the white moonlight, and it was unclear whether he was happy or angry.

He seemed to have long hair that was fluttering slightly in the weightless environment. The black hair almost merged with the black of the universe. Countless stars emitted faint light in the gaps between His hair, as if they had become a part of Him.

And now they were standing very close, seemingly only twenty meters apart.

The "Gate of Ten Thousand Doors", the "Starry Sky Guide", Bethel Abraham - for the first time, he appeared before Klein in such a real way. Klein looked at Him, and Bethel was also looking at him, as if he was within reach.

"Your true distance is very far." The voice of the Demon of Knowledge came, "He is at the edge of the barrier, infinitely close to the starry sky."

Infinitely close, that means he was not really "exiled" to the starry sky, right? If Bethel Abraham was in the starry sky, then maybe he was not controlled or polluted by the Mother Goddess, but was directly accepted by the Fallen Mother Goddess, and used this to open a door on the barrier and enter...

While Klein was thinking, Bethel had already looked at them and sneered with an ambiguous tone:
"It seems my descendants chose to save me after all."

"You, finally don't want to waste any more time, and are planning to find someone to take away my Beyonder characteristics?"

After saying that, Bethel narrowed his eyes and looked at Klein seriously for a while. After a moment, he snorted:
"Miracle Master."

The Demon of Knowledge did not respond to this question.

Klein didn't care about Bethel's sarcasm towards him. Instead, he asked curiously, "Why did you say 'your descendants still chose to save you'? Could it be that the full moon whispers weren't your cry for help?"

Bethel's originally unfriendly expression eased a little. After a brief silence, he seemed to remember something and whispered:

"I remember, I remember your voice..."

"You are the one who told me about Abraham's recent situation. I remember. You told me that my cry for help became the death warrant for my descendants, causing them to suffer early. They either died due to uncontrolled promotion or committed suicide because they could not bear the torture."

"But that's not me."

Bethel said calmly:

"That is the second personality that the Fallen Mother Goddess gave me... She is the Mother of Life. This personality is subservient to Her and will tirelessly tempt everyone to save me and summon me. It seems that no one really heard my words."

Klein was curious: "So what exactly do you want to say?"

Bethel looked at him and said nothing.

The demon of knowledge at the back then joined the conversation: "Don't save me."

Don't save me... Don't save me...

Even though Klein had gone through so much now and would no longer be directly contaminated by Mr. Door's screams, the content of those words made his scalp numb and his pupils dilated. He could hardly suppress the sudden fear in his heart.

He originally thought Mr. Door had been calling for help, but now what he heard was:
"Don't save me!"
