Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

#198 - Medici the Red Angel

"Justice" Audrey didn't expect to receive news of the "Psychologist" potion ingredients so quickly. She then replied with delight, "Okay, deal."

At this time, Audrey's financial situation had gradually improved, and when the New Year arrived, she would be of age. Each month, she could receive some dividends from her shares, and the pounds she could use would increase.

So, right now, taking out 1,000 pounds wasn't difficult for her.

She agreed?

"Magician" Fors, while happy, was also a little dazed. Miss "Justice" just agreed like that.

Then, they requested Mr. "Fool" to witness the transaction, agreeing that Miss "Justice" would pay first, and the extraordinary materials would be delivered on Wednesday.

And before "Sun" Derrick set off last week, he had already sacrificed the "Stomach of a Spirit Eater" and the materials requested by "Hanged Man" to Mr. "Fool", completing their three-way transaction.

Now, Fors was just waiting to re-digest the potion before she could advance to "Trick Master."

So, at this week's gathering, neither Fors nor Derrick had any other needs.

"Hanged Man" Alger waited for the two female members' transactions to end before saying, "I need a pair of dragon eye eagle eyeballs."

Last week, Audrey helped Alger trade for the "Wind Blessed" potion formula, so he also began seeking the main ingredients for the potion.

Audrey, having seen the potion formula, thought, "Hanged Man" only mentioned "dragon eye eagle eyeballs," which means he has clues about the "Blue Shadow Falcon Feather Crystal."

"Hanged Man" is a member of the Tarot Club with many channels and resources. "Hermit," although he also has many channels, they are mostly for trading information.

So, if "Hanged Man" doesn't have a channel to buy the extraordinary materials, other members can only promise to help keep an eye out for them for the time being.

Fors will write a letter to her teacher, and Audrey will inquire with the "Psychological Alchemy Society." As the saying goes: When in trouble, find the organization.

The only one who can't help here is "Little Sun," because Silver City doesn't have extraordinary creatures living in the sea, so there are no corresponding extraordinary materials.

Audis waited for a few seconds, and after confirming that no one initiated a new transaction, he said to "World," "I have some questions I want to discuss with you separately."

Klein was taken aback. What does this guy want from me?

Now, he was almost certain that "Hermit" was Mr. Xel. He estimated that "Hermit" also suspected his identity. After all, "Seer" is also a pathway with relatively high spirituality. Having participated in so many gatherings together, and having met so many times "offline," it was impossible for the other party's spirituality not to notice anything.

But neither of them had exposed themselves first, nor had they exposed their intention to let the other know their true identity.

The reason was simple: if they knew each other's identity in the real world, they would either trust each other more or be wary of each other and be suspicious.

So, revealing their identities must be done at the right time.

Now, Klein no longer referred to Audis as "Hermit" or "Mr. Xel" in his heart, but uniformly called him "this guy."

After being stunned for a second, Klein manipulated "World" and said, "Okay."

So, Audis requested "Fool" to create a separate communication environment for them. He went straight to the point and said, "Do you have any high-level methods of 'changing luck'?"

Then, without giving Klein any room to maneuver, he said, "I heard that the other Great Angel of the 'Fate' pathway you mentioned earlier is in Backlund.

"But it seems that He has just completed a 'restart' and is unwilling to provide any form of help."

Klein opened his mouth, once again marveling at "Hermit's" intelligence channels. He had originally thought that the whereabouts of that Great Angel of the "Fate" pathway were only known to him.

He thought for a moment before manipulating "World" to ask, "What level of 'luck alteration' is needed?"

"It should at least be at the level of an angel," Audis replied. "I've been very unlucky lately, and I've encountered an incident involving a Grade 0 Sealed Artifact and two incidents involving evil gods.

"Now I'm certain that my fate has been affected by someone."

Klein opened his mouth, thinking, You're still alive, it's a miracle!

Let alone incidents involving Grade 0 Sealed Artifacts and gods, even incidents involving the demigod level, theoretically, he would have died several times over.

Faced with "World's" silence, Audis smiled wryly and said, "I don't know if I'm lucky or unlucky.

"I keep encountering such high-level incidents, yet I always manage to survive."

And he always manages to get some benefits. In the incident involving "0-08," he received the "Night Watcher's" information fee and established good relations with the "Night Watchers."

In the incident of the descent of "Unextinguished Whispers," he obtained the potion formula of "Scroll Professor" and an income of 2,600 pounds.

In the Dylan incident, he obtained a Sealed Artifact that matched Sequence 7, and also established a certain connection with the "Demon Monarch."

Thinking back, only the incident of the descent of "Unextinguished Whispers" had a considerable risk… No, in fact, the risk wasn't as great as he thought.

Audis suddenly realized at this moment that he had been too anxious those few days. If he really couldn't stop the evil god from descending, he would have fled immediately. The danger wasn't as great as he had imagined.

Moreover, the Church and the Royal Family didn't even dispatch angels to solve the problem, which also indicated that the level of danger at that time hadn't reached an uncontrollable point.

More importantly, Backlund actually has gods backing it…

Thinking of this, Audis said somewhat uncertainly, "I seem… I seem to not need 'luck alteration.'"

Then, he suddenly realized that not only had his fate been affected, but some of his thoughts had also been affected.

So, usually, he had never thought of this.

It wasn't until he participated in the Tarot Club that, under the protection of the "Source Castle," all the influences he had suffered were eliminated, and he thought of this problem.

Of course, the "Knowledge Wilderness" also has the same effect, but Audis goes there either to look up information or to do some mystical research.

Recently, he also began to use the "Central Simulator" to experiment with his newly invented "Witchcraft," and he had no time to consider these issues at all.

Klein manipulated "World" and nodded: "Okay."

He didn't have any good solutions either. Although the honorific name of "Fool" included "King of Yellow and Black who holds good fortune," only he himself knew that it was just to make up the numbers.

After the separate communication ended, everyone saw "Hermit" fall into deep thought, and they were very curious about what the two had just discussed.

Klein saw everyone's expressions and smiled helplessly. Basically, "Hermit" had been "asking and answering himself."

He manipulated "World" and asked, "Does anyone know the whereabouts of 'Mermaids'?"

As Klein expected, only "Hanged Man" Alger said, "I heard that in the depths of the Sonia Sea, someone has discovered traces of 'Mermaids.'"

"World" nodded. This was similar to the answer he had received from Miss Sharron.

Then, Klein manipulated "World" and said to "Hermit," "I want to trade information about 'Red Angel' Medici, including the whereabouts of his descendants."

During his actions with Miss Sharron last week, he encountered a wraith from the Fourth Epoch, who mentioned some information about Medici and the whereabouts of Medici's descendants.

Klein wanted to verify the authenticity of that information.

Audis, who was thinking about who had affected him, came back to his senses: "Yes, okay, the same price as before, 800 pounds."

"World" nodded and looked at the other members: "Does anyone else want to join the transaction?"

"Me!" Audrey raised her hand first and said, "I'm willing to pay 150 pounds to join this transaction."

This was another piece of information about an "Angel King," so of course she wouldn't miss it.

"Me too," Fors said. "I'll use 'Spiritual World Anecdotes'…"

"World" coldly interrupted Miss "Magician's" wishful thinking: "I only accept cash to join."

Fors was intimidated by "World's" aura: "Okay… okay then, I… um, I mean, I won't join the transaction."

150 pounds was a huge sum for her.

Although her current savings, plus the 200 pounds she just earned from Miss "Justice," already totaled 900 pounds, at the Sequence 7 level, this 900 pounds simply wouldn't last.

"You can spend 80 pounds to join this transaction," "World" said again. "But you can't ask questions."

For him, every little bit helps. If "Magician" pays 80 pounds more, he can save 80 pounds.

Although Klein had been relatively wealthy recently, for him, thrift was a virtue.

Fors was still a little pained, but she didn't dare to refuse "World's" invitation: "Okay, okay."

Then Alger said, "I'll also use 150 pounds to join the transaction."

He currently only needed to reserve money to buy a "main ingredient," and he still had some savings to satisfy his curiosity.

When it finally came to "Little Sun" Derrick's turn, Audis said, "I can help you pay for the funds to join this transaction."

Then he said to "World," "You can just give me a total of 650 pounds."

Derrick didn't refuse: "Thank you, Mr. Hermit."

"World" also nodded and said, "No problem."

After discussing how to pay the remuneration, everyone looked at "Hermit."

"Like ‘Angel of Destiny,’ ‘Red Angel’ Medici was also one of the earliest angels to follow the ‘Ancient Sun God.’" Audrys said, "The Second Epoch was a very chaotic era, and it's far removed from our time.

"Information about some of the ancient gods from that time is now quite vague, and information about the angel level at that time is almost completely blank.

"So I don't know where Medici's roots are? Is he a subordinate of an ancient god? Or has he been acting alone all along?

"However, according to some information, He seems to be a mythical creature born naturally, meaning he was an angel from birth."

Klein thought to himself: It's already great to understand this much.

Alger sighed: Born an angel... Ah, what good fortune!

The other members also had varying degrees of emotion. After all, in their memories, let alone a "born angel," they had never even seen a "born demigod."

Audrys continued, "This should have been very common in the Second Epoch. We said before that excess Extraordinary pathways can be eliminated through reproduction.

"Especially at the angel level, there is already a certain ability to choose which part of the characteristics to eliminate, so Medici may have been born by eliminating Extraordinary characteristics."

Klein smiled and thought: Commonly known as 'a freebie with the purchase of a potion'.

"His experiences are similar to those of the ‘Angel of Destiny.’" Audrys continued, "He didn't leave behind any records in the Second and Third Epochs, when angels were as numerous as clouds.

"At the end of the Third Epoch, Medici also joined the ‘Rose Redemption,’ and he did not leave this organization in the Fourth Epoch either."

Klein frowned: Two 'Angel Kings' have already joined this organization. Could this be an organization established by the angels and 'Angel Kings' who serve the 'Ancient Sun God'? Is the purpose to overthrow the 'Ancient Sun God'? But... do they have any hope of succeeding?

Derrick simply asked, "Mr. Hermit, what exactly is the ‘Rose Redemption’?"

He had wanted to ask during the last round of trading, but he never found the opportunity.

The other members also had their own guesses and were very curious about it.

Audrys smiled and said, "This is a piece of news I just obtained while collecting information about the fall of the Ancient Sun God.

"In my opinion, just knowing the membership list of this organization is already more valuable than information about an 'Angel King'.

"So, I can't explain what kind of organization this is for free right now. You only need to know that this is a very powerful organization that originated in the Third Epoch."

Alger sighed: This is definitely another amazing piece of information!

Fors thought to herself: Even if Mr. Hermit doesn't do anything else, he can support himself just by selling information.

Audrys continued, "When it came to the Fourth Epoch, this 'Angel King's' experiences became more exciting.

"First, two rivals appeared. Those two rivals were named Sauron and Einhorn respectively."

Klein behind the gray fog had some associations. He immediately controlled “The World” to ask: "Are they the former royal family of Intis? And the current imperial family of the Fursac Empire?"

Audrey also recalled that, as a noble, knowing the information of other nobles was the first course to learn. Of course, she had heard of the declining Sauron family and the current imperial family of the Fursac Empire, the Einhorn family.

But knowing was knowing, and it couldn't quell the surprise in her heart: She didn't expect that these two families could be traced back to the Fourth Epoch, or even earlier.

However, she then felt that this was not surprising. After all, this was a world dominated by the Extraordinary, so the rulers of this world should also be a powerful Extraordinary force.

Fors was hearing about this for the first time, and all that was left in her heart at this time was surprise.

Then, she smiled helplessly: Just knowing this information is worth those 80 pounds.

"Yes." Audrys continued, "In the Fourth Epoch, Medici had to serve the ‘Solomon Empire’ alongside these two rivals for a period of time.

"When the ‘Solomon Empire’ collapsed, a new period of governance began.

"At this time, Medici, who had been planning for a long time, finally began to act. He used a conspiracy to trick Sauron and Einhorn to Backlund…"

Audrey was slightly stunned, thinking she had misheard: "Backlund?"

"Yes, there was a city of Backlund in the Fourth Epoch." Audrys replied.

He said: "Just as He was killing two opponents and performing the ritual to advance to True God, He was jointly killed and fell somewhere in Backlund."
