Fall in love with you, secret: start from the reader
"If you want to deal with Sierra, I can help."
For Vera's promise, Torzina was silent for a few seconds before saying seriously: "I will help you keep an eye on the whereabouts of the 'Wishing Lamp'."
Although Abner, who was listening to their conversation, knew very well that "0-05" was in Bernadette's hands, it was Roselle's most beloved daughter after all... Whether Vera wanted to get the "Magic Lamp of Wishing" What is the purpose of this? It is not appropriate for this information to come out of his own mouth, so he can only choose to change the subject and ask about the task of the "seal theft case" received by Xio.
Hearing Abner's question, Vera thought for a while and replied:
"Although I have an agreement with Angleweed and Hermes, I don't know much about what they are planning... After all, the original agreement stipulated that we were just a loose alliance and would not interfere with others. Private actions... As long as it doesn't harm my own interests, I generally won't ask.
"However, regarding the matter of Ince Zangwill, because it involves the Loen royal family, I still know something...
"You guessed right, Angleweed had already made contact with the sealed item '0-08' through the 'Fallen Morning Star', and made an 'arrangement' with Ince Zangwill through it, so that It established a connection with the angel and evil spirit in the 'seal' created by Roselle.
"That is an angel evil spirit of the 'Hunter' pathway, and it is also the last angel of the 'Sauron' family before losing Intis!
"As for the purpose of their arrangement, I don't know..."
——Angelweed is the real name of the dragon king who has the title of "Dragon of Illusion" in the second era. At the same time, the "Dragon of Nightmare" Alesu who later turned into the sealed item "0-08" Hodder, and Eric Hogg, one of the only three remaining ancient dragons, are strictly speaking his "vests" and props for his resurrection.
Abner frowned and thought for a moment, then asked again: "Since Angleweed has always held the position of Ince Zangwill and '0-08', why didn't the 'writer' feature Recycling, promotion to Sequence 1?"
In this regard, Vera smiled and said meaningfully:
"If it's only Sequence 2, then no matter how he plans and arranges, as long as it doesn't affect that person's plan, the other party will not take him seriously, let alone take the initiative to deal with him.
"But if he becomes Sequence 1, then he will face countless attacks immediately!
"And Angleweed is extremely jealous of that one, and he would rather not be promoted if he does not find a safe opportunity."
Hearing this, Abner nodded thoughtfully, thinking to himself:
Well, Angleweed knew that Adam was created for nothing, and in the original book, Miss "Justice" was used to remind the "Fool"... So, He was frightened by being created for nothing!
Thinking about it this way, maybe Angleweed's purpose is just to delay the time for Adam to get "0-08" as much as possible?
In the original book, Adam turned Anderson into a "bait" to attract Ince who was possessed by the "Red Angel"...
And this time, if Adam's method remains the same, Ince who is possessed by the angel of the "Hunter" path will still be attracted... However, the red angel who has been "free" for a long time may also get involved, and the scene will be scary at that time. It will be very confusing...
Adam may not be able to succeed smoothly.
If Adam exposes his essence as the "ancient sun god" in order to compete for "0-08", it is likely to attract the three gods to take action... I am afraid this is the opportunity that Angleweed is waiting for?
But this is His wishful thinking... And behind this incident, I am afraid that there are "God of Knowledge and Wisdom" and "I" manipulating it!
Don't mention the "God of Knowledge and Wisdom". Although He has not been in direct contact with me now, there are many things about him... and he and Dennett, "Calamity Seal" and other former "God of Disaster" I'm very familiar with it. It's impossible to say that I know all the mysterious plots, but Adam was created in vain. He must have known about it a long time ago, and he has his own plan.
Not to mention "I"...
Aside from other things, the bridge between Angleweed and "0-08", the extraordinary piece that Hermes asked Russell to create was made by the "King of Dragons" using scales from his own collection. The item "Fallen Morning Star", from its name to its abilities, was provided by "I". If it is said that "I" has no calculations in this matter, even if I can't remember anything now, I still don't believe it.
But the "Seal of Disaster" seems to have had contact with Adam, and I don't know which side "I" is...
Hehe, not to mention me, even the "God of Knowledge" may not have a clear attitude...Think about it, although Adam becoming a **** is not good for him...but if Adam can't become a god, it's not good for him The danger is probably even greater!
If Adam can't become a god, then the fusion of white creation and real creation must eventually be dominated by the "true Creator", and the result is probably worse than Adam's dominance.
After all, when divinity dominates, the feelings of betrayers like them can be treated calmly... But how can the "true creator" dominated by humanity care so much? I'm afraid there will be a battle of gods immediately after the fusion!
So, maybe the attitude of the "God of Knowledge" is also procrastination, until the birth of "The Fool", or... narcissistically speaking, wait until "I" rises... In this way, no matter which side is dominant, " The God of Knowledge" can feel at ease for a while.
As his thoughts turned, Abner felt for the first time that he might have caught up with the thoughts of the gods, but he was not too sure. After all, the "God of Knowledge" invested so much in him, if he only got a temporary stable result, That's not much different from the original book, he was at a loss.
…
Next, after the three of them emptied the remaining dishes and drinks, they announced the end of the banquet.
Abner rejected Vera's invitation to "go and sit with her", but before the other party left, she told him that Ms. Aloran of the "Moss Penance" was not in a good condition and needed his help . If he is far away from a big city, or after going out to sea, he might as well call His messenger and make an appointment with her.
Abner agreed after pondering for a moment.
After all, Ms. Aloran also helped him block an angel in the previous "Deep Sea Ceremony", so she should express her gratitude in person, both emotionally and rationally.
…
Wednesday morning, April 20, Port Nass.
In the dim room of the hotel, Klein rubbed the crystal ball with both hands, and whispered the difficult ancient Hermetic language in his mouth.
The room gradually became dark, and all the dark corners suddenly became dark, as if exuding a strange attraction.
The crystal ball quickly lit up, and a figure of a woman in a black classical robe emerged.
She has an oval face, fair skin, dark purple eyes, full of mystery.
"Meet you again, Ms. Cattleya." Klein greeted first.
Since the "Crystal Ball" was sent to him through Mister Fool, this is already the second communication between them.
The "hermit" Cattleya on the opposite side of the crystal ball also glanced at the "world" here, and asked the question she had been confused about again:
"I'm curious, how did you recognize my identity? I was always careful when I attended the party."
At that time, the "World" who requested a private communication said "Admiral of the Star" as soon as he spoke, which really shocked her.
Based on this factor, she chose to accept the "World" commission.
Klein smiled politely, but he didn't take it seriously in his heart, because the "Hermit" thought that the perfect disguise was no secret in the eyes of "Tower" and even "The Hanged Man"... and "Tower" knew, It means that "Judgment" knows, maybe "Magician" has been hinted, but she doesn't know it.
However, facing the other party's eyes with a strong desire to explore, he still added a sentence plainly:
"Your eyes are very characteristic."
"Can I understand that this is a compliment to me?" Cattleya smiled in a daze.
She thought that the previous "world" only suspected that she was the "Admiral of the Stars" through eyes and other details, but she was not sure, so she tried it through language, and her own reaction told him the correct answer.
Klein didn't respond anymore, and asked instead:
"When are we leaving?"
"Admiral of the Stars" Cattleya thought for a while and replied:
"Today at 8 o'clock in the evening, Pier Six."
Klein nodded slightly and said, "Okay."
As soon as he finished speaking, the light in the crystal ball suddenly shrank, and the figure in the black classical robe became darker and blurred, and soon disappeared.
Klein put away the crystal ball, turned around and left the hotel, and went to the "Lodal" bar, intending to check for the latest information and short-term performance opportunities before departure.
Not long after he left, a female figure wearing a rather old-fashioned black soft hat appeared in the room. After silently sensing for a while, she repeated a sentence: "8 o'clock tonight, Pier Six."
…
Becklund~IndoMTL.com~ At ten o'clock on Wednesday morning, Abner came to North A private museum at 16 Pinster Street in the district is celebrating its opening.
"Detective Abner Bryan? No, it's time to call you Sir Bryan."
As soon as Abner got out of the carriage, he heard a somewhat frivolous voice from behind. He looked back and found that the person who greeted him was wearing a white shirt, a brown windbreaker, and a long coat of the same color. Pants...
In short, he dressed very casually, but because of his good looks, it made him look chic.
This person is the former member of the Tingen Nighthawks team, the current "Red Gloves", and the future Mr. "Star"——
Leonard Mitchell.
Seeing him, Abner suddenly showed a smile on his face, deliberately exaggerating:
"Mr. Leonard... As a gift to congratulate me on my knighthood, shouldn't you present me with a poem?"
