Start with the Readers Chapter 28: Abner’s tip
In the cafe opposite the museum, the handsome poet Leonard with black hair and blue eyes watched Abner Brayne board the carriage and gradually go away through the glass window. Then he lowered his head and asked in a low voice. Road:
"Old man, do you think there is something wrong with the new viscount?"
As soon as the words fell, the slightly old voice sounded in his mind:
"You are becoming more and more impolite. In our era, disrespect for high-ranking people meant that you would become a living sacrifice."
Speaking of which, Pales paused before continuing:
"There is a problem for sure... Otherwise, how could he become a demigod directly from the middle sequence in less than a year? But he should have nothing to do with the matter you are investigating."
"When you were in Bayam last time, you said that he reminded you of an old friend, right? You also said that he might have received the inheritance from that person..." Leonard muttered a few words, then asked in doubt : "But this detective's sudden visit to an unknown exhibition is still very suspicious!"
"Hehe, the behavior of the 'Prophet' is often unreasonable, but afterward, it will be discovered that things are developing in his favor..." Pallez Zoroast said with a snort.
"The 'Prophet'..." Leonard nodded thoughtfully. After the training of the "Red Gloves", he has already learned a lot about the channels mastered by other churches and major organizations, knowing that this is " Sequence 4 of the "Reader" pathway, the formula is only in the hands of the Church of the "God of Knowledge and Wisdom".
He couldn't help feeling a little envious, after all, the opponent's improvement speed was exactly what he longed for.
Sighing, Leonard seemed to feel a little hot, so he unbuttoned his neckline and asked casually: "Since Abner Bryan has become a 'prophet', it means that he is a member of the Church of Knowledge." Members of the... How did you become a favored person of the Mother Earth?"
"There is nothing surprising about this, it's just that you have too little experience... Historically, although there were not many incidents where members of the Church of the God of Knowledge became the patrons of the gods of other churches, they still happened every few decades or hundreds of years. Once...
"Speaking of it, this may be due to the arrogance of the 'readers'. What they believe in is knowledge and wisdom itself, rather than the **** named after it.
"And the "God of Knowledge and Wisdom" doesn't care much about this, as long as he doesn't do anything that endangers the church, he will let it go.
"Facts have proved that such an attitude is not a problem. Even if the organization is loose, the cohesion of the Knowledge Church is very good..." Pallez said with emotion.
Listening to the old man's detailed description, Leonard nodded, temporarily letting go of his doubts about Abner.
At this moment, an ordinary nighthawk opened the door and walked into the coffee shop, came to Leonard's side, whispered something in his ear, and then turned and left.
"Filina suddenly received an invitation from Stuart to go to Disci Bay for a vacation, and had a romantic, instant trip?!"
After Leonard recounted the information, he was vigilant and puzzled and said, "Why did she suddenly leave Backlund just as I wanted to investigate her?
"There are also the deaths of her previous husbands, and her luck in choosing ancient objects...
"It's all full of 'coincidences'!
"Hey, if it wasn't for Stuart, because of the Church of Storms, I would have brought her back to the company for interrogation!"
Here, he tilted his head again and asked, "Old man, what do you think?"
"It's indeed a 'coincidence'...but her 'coincidence' should be just because of 'luck', and has nothing to do with '0-08', so you don't have to worry about it in vain."
Leonard was stunned for a second and said:
"Old man, are you familiar with '0-08'?"
It's never been shown before!
Pallez's slightly old voice let out a laugh:
"Of course I am familiar with it. In the Fourth Epoch, '0-08' caused the fall of angels.
"I can't tell you too much, because if you know it, it will know you. The more you know it, the more likely you will become a part of the story."
From the vague words of the old man, Leonard really tasted the horror of "0-08", which has surpassed the mysticism he can understand!
"Then why didn't you tell me before I started the investigation?" Leonard asked habitually after thinking for a moment.
See, Pales Zarathustra laughed and said in a low voice:
"Man, you have to experience something before you can grow."
"..." Leonard was speechless for a while.
…
City of Silver, inside the round tower.
Derrick Berg met Colin Iliad, chief of the "Six-member Council" again.
He clearly remembered that nearly seventy "days" ago, the other party told him that in about two months, he would have a mission to go out to explore, and he had to be prepared.
In the past two months, with the help of patrol missions and hard practice, Derrick has fully mastered the various extraordinary abilities of the "Sun Priest", and it is not too far away from digesting them.
What he hopes most now is to obtain the potion formula of the "Sun" pathway Sequence 6 in the next two to three Tarot Gatherings, laying the foundation for his continued improvement.
"Afternoon Town..." When he heard the destination of this mission from the chief, Derrick was stunned for a moment, and then he saw the other party's eyes that were almost "expressing", and he had a little understanding in his heart :
The chief wants him to report this matter to Mister Fool, to inform that great existence that the City of Silver is already exploring towards the giant royal court according to his wishes.
After all, Afternoon Town is the only way from the Kingdom of Silver to the giant king's court. There, humans and giants live together in the town, surrounded by the ancient god's residence that is always frozen at dusk, just like the real world to the end of myths and legends. door.
Such a place must be very dangerous, and the chief also hopes to get some support or tips.
"I, need, a quiet room." Derrick said carefully.
Colin Iliad seemed to have been prepared for a long time, and raised his finger to point to the corridor:
"There are many rooms with open doors across the street that are empty, so you choose one yourself."
"Yes, Your Excellency the Chief." Derrick saluted and exited, found an empty room at random, locked the wooden door behind him, sat down, and muttered in a dark corner with his eyes shining slightly. pray.
…
"Future", in a spacious room with a bathroom attached.
Klein, who had just stepped onto the "Star Bridge" at the port under the attention of everyone, and boarded the flagship of the "Admiral of the Stars", stood by the window, looking at the endlessly rising and falling blue ocean outside, breathing in a good mood With the cold wind blowing from the north.
Recalling the "toxin expert" Frank Lee and the "bloodless" Heath Doyle he just met, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he always felt that there seemed to be no normal people on Cattleya's boat...
In comparison, Miss Jian who talks a lot is not so "prominent".
As soon as he thought of this, Klein suddenly heard an indistinct prayer sound, so he withdrew his thoughts, entered the bathroom, came above the gray mist, and soon heard Mr. "Sun"'s prayer.
"Afternoon Town? I don't know where it is? I should ask Liu Bo about this! I remember that he lived in the land abandoned by God once in his life."
After thinking for a moment, Klein gritted his teeth and directly transferred the request from the "Sun" to the "Tower".
…
Becklund, in the villa at No. 28, King Street.
Abner had just brought Fanny and Elaine back from Intis, and was discussing the political situation in Trier and the company's development strategy with the ladies through the banquet.
At this moment, a boundless gray fog appeared in front of his eyes.
After a while, he came back to his senses, continued the previous topic, and only muttered in his heart:
Afternoon town? That place is similar to the Kingdom of the Night, and the "Kabas" town I entered in Professor Michelle's dream before... As long as the spiritual body is pulled into the space above the gray fog by Mr. safe.
However, Klein actually directly transferred the request of "The Sun"... He is getting more and more unpretentious...
…
Boom boom boom, the knock on the door echoed in the chief room at the top of the round tower.
Before the sound sounded, Colin Iliad already knew that Derrick Berg opened the door and walked over here.
"Come in." He turned around, towards the entrance.
Derrick pushed the door and entered~IndoMTL.com~ and saluted:
"Your Excellency, I got some hints."
Colin Iliad calmly nodded and said:
"What is it all?"
"First, the monsters in Afternoon Town are afraid of strong light; second, in the real Afternoon Town, you must be careful of the 'strange Afternoon Town' you will fall into after triggering..." Derrick said here, suddenly After a while, he continued in Abner's tone, "Once you fall into it, it is best to recite the honorable name immediately: the fool who does not belong to this era..."
…
Early on Thursday morning, after Abner sent Fanny back to Intis after staying alone, he was not in a hurry to return to Backlund, but drove to a single room in a rather remote cafe .
Soon, "Black Knight" Sero, whose fate was seized by the former pope of "Eternal Blazing Sun", sat opposite him after saluting.
"My lord, Mr. Prime Minister of the Deleon family, seems to be going crazy."
