Mystery: emerging from the wilderness of knowledge

"can."

At the top of the mottled long table, Klein tapped the edge of the table with his finger, causing all the Tarot cards except "Chariot" to disappear.

In order to show his mystery and majesty, Klein added another sentence:

"The 'chariot' acts decisively and quickly, but the faster the 'chariot', the harder it is to see clearly the truth and the current situation, and ultimately loses its goal."

Anderson was stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses, stood up and saluted respectfully:

“Thanks for the gift and tips!”

He originally wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to call this mysterious existence, so he had to end the topic directly.

Klein leaned on the back of his chair and said leisurely: "You can call me: 'The Fool'."

"I understand, respected Mr. Fool." Anderson made a larger gesture and bowed again with a pious posture.

"The party is every Monday at 3pm Backlund time."

Klein briefly mentioned the time of the party, and then threw him directly out of the gray fog.

Anderson only felt that he was in a trance for a moment, and when he came back to his senses, he was sitting on the easy chair in the hotel room.

Looking around, Anderson touched his face in disbelief and said to himself:

"I'm actually still alive. The mysterious 'Fool' didn't directly contaminate me, but he didn't remove the bad luck from me either."

"Monday, three o'clock in the afternoon Backlund time. Fortunately, it only lasts two days. I should be able to survive it."

"In order for my ordinary and handsome face to continue to live in this world, I have to work hard to earn some living expenses, and there is also a blackmail from that guy Gehrman Sparrow."

Reaching out and patting his cheek, Anderson stood up from the easy chair, picked up the clothes on the coat rack and prepared to go out.

The moment he put his hand on the doorknob, he suddenly froze. In a trance, he seemed to see a pair of strange, indifferent eyes with countless bright stars looking at him.

"Well"

Suddenly there was a slight swelling and pain in my head, as if some knowledge was being poured into my mind.

That knowledge automatically formed in my mind and turned into a picture:

A rabbit was wearing a distinctive black tuxedo, a red bow tie and a black top hat. It was also holding a milky white dice in its hand and staring straight ahead without blinking, as if looking at someone.

Anderson murmured like he was dreaming: "The Pass River Valley of the Southern Continent can solve the anomalies of fate."

As soon as the words fell, Anderson seemed to suddenly wake up and shook his head twice. As if he felt that he was not awake enough, he reached out and slapped his cheek while shaking.

"Is this a tip from Mr. Fool? No, he said that I couldn't pay him a satisfactory amount, so I asked myself to find someone to help me at the party later."

"So, those eyes just now are those of the 'knowledgeable one'?"

"It's terrible. I prayed to the 'God of Knowledge and Wisdom' tens of thousands of times before but never received a single response. How come I suddenly succeeded twice in a row? Moreover, why is there still a delay in the response from this 'Learned One'? I won’t become each other’s undercover agent in the eyes of two hidden entities, right? Is this a new development of my bad luck?”

The more Anderson talked, the more powerless he became. Finally, he held the door with both hands and buried his head deeply in his arms. He had a sad feeling that he only had the last few minutes of his life.

He kept this action for nearly ten minutes, and suddenly he looked up as if he had made up his mind and opened the door. Nothing could be worse than this, so he had better take care of the present and go to the pirates to borrow some money. .

At the same time, in another room across the corridor, Klein prayed to himself and responded to his own way, taking out the radio receiver placed above the gray fog.

The radio receiver placed on the table was silent for a while, the light in the room suddenly dimmed, and the temperature instantly dropped several degrees.

Da da da!

The ethereal typing sounds continued, and a section of illusory white paper on the ticker was spit out, with translucent silvery-white Rune words flashing on it:

"Great and supreme master, your faithful servant Arrodes comes to see you."

"Congratulations, you have taken another step forward on the road to regaining your own authority. The increasingly powerful aura around you makes me tremble!"

At the end of the word, there is also an expression of a scared and excited little person.

This mirror is very sensitive. It can see that the aura of Origin Castle above the gray mist on my body is stronger. Judging from its performance, it doesn't look like an item from the Path of Destiny, right? Why can you see something special about me?

Klein was silent for a moment, then maintained Gehrman Sparrow's indifferent tone and nodded slightly: "Yes."

The ticker on the desktop spit out another piece of illusory white paper:

"Great Master, do you have any questions to ask me?"

Quite self-consciously. Klein sighed in his heart, his face already expressionless, he nodded gently and said:

"Yes."

"Do you know what the magic potion corresponding to the fourth sequence of the 'Soothsayer' path is called? And where can I get its formula and potion materials?"

The ticker sounded again, and a new section of the illusory white paper popped out:

"Great Master, are you testing me?"

"The Sequence 4 of the 'Soothsayer' path is called the 'Cunning Mage'. There are only three ways to obtain the corresponding magic potion formula."

"The first one is the 'Church of the Goddess of the Night'. They have always had the habit of cultivating soothsayers and also raised mermaids; the second one is Zaratul, the leader of the 'Secret Order', but he has gone crazy. I'm sorry. , Dear Master, due to the limitations of this radio receiver, I cannot show you the relevant pictures; the third one is the main peak of the Honakis Mountains, which is the origin of the Antigonus family."

My identity in the church is already dead. I can't find the "Secret Order" at all, and even if I find it, facing a crazy angel, I have no choice but to go to the Honakis Mountains. ? Is this why the "Mysterious Queen" predicted my fate in the Honakis Mountains?

Klein looked at the words on the radio receiver expressionlessly and compared several options in his mind. He could only say that each one was more dangerous than the last.

The clicking sound suddenly sounded again, and new words appeared on the blurred white paper:

"Great Master, there may be another possibility, but I can't be sure. I can't see through that person, but I intuitively think that he should also know this knowledge, or he has a way to know this knowledge. Do you want to know? "

"Think." Klein nodded calmly. This was the first time he saw Arrods using words like "uncertain" and "intuition" to describe a person.

The radio receiver on the table rang again:

"The great master, you also know him, Renekton Soth from Feneport, he also has an identity at sea called Al Taines."

"There are too many secrets in him. What I can see is very limited. I can't be sure whether he has mastered the relevant information. But the magic potion formula is also a kind of 'knowledge'. As a favored person of knowledge, he must have a way to obtain what he needs." knowledge."

It sounds reasonable. You can ask it at the next Tarot meeting. It’s best if you have it, and it won’t be worse if you don’t have it. Klein nodded lightly, and then asked the next question:

"Who is the most suitable person to turn to to solve the curse of misfortune brought about by the murals left by Ourolius?"

The telegraph machine buzzed immediately and spit out a new piece of white paper:

"Great master, there are four choices that are most suitable for you. They are:

The rabbit raised by Al Tynes, the dice of probability that evolved from the uniqueness of the path of destiny, is there. Backlund hides a mercury snake, and Olavi Island hides a life school, the Destiny Council. The congressman, his name is Richaud, is currently recuperating there, and Destiny, who has been in contact with you before, is floating on the foggy sea, seeming to be looking for something. "

Every choice is not close, I hope Anderson can hold on, um... Or I can let him pay in advance, so that I don't have to worry about the person disappearing before he pays.

Klein thought silently for a moment, then nodded slightly to the radio receiver on the table and said:

"That's it."

The ticker spit out another piece of illusory white paper:

"Yes, great and supreme master, I hope you can return to the throne of God as soon as possible. Your loyal servant is always waiting for your dispatch. Then I will take my leave first."

At the end of the word, there is also a little man waving with tears in his eyes.

Klein stood calmly and said nothing. The illusory white papers that appeared on the radio receiver in front of him disappeared instantly. The light in the room became much brighter and the temperature also rose a little.

Standing in front of the table, Klein sighed inaudibly.

Arrods doesn't seem to be a simple sealed object. It can see through the specialness in me without having to do with destiny. Is it because it is related to this specialness, or does it involve some special authority? , such as "omniscient"?

"Omniscient" should be the authority of the "God of Knowledge and Wisdom". When the position of Sequence 0 is occupied, the upper limit of this path is Sequence . "Magic Mirror" Arrods corresponds to Sequence of this path. Extraordinary characteristics?

Maybe, you can ask Will Auceptin. Anyway, I plan to ask him a question. If I write the words smaller and denser, I should be able to write down one more question.

With this thought in mind, Klein quickly walked to the desk, dismantled Will Asceptin's folded paper crane, and used a pencil to densely write down a few questions he wanted to ask on it:

"How to remove the curse of bad luck caused by the 'Angel of Destiny' mural?"

"Where can I obtain the magic potion formula and materials for the 'Cunning Mage'?"

"Sealed Artifact 2-111 collected by Backlund Steam Church, what is the origin of 'Magic Mirror' Arrods?"
