Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

Audis' words and demeanor gave Grosell and the others some comfort. As the two huge doors closed, Audis took a deep breath: "I need to take this 'Travel Notes' back to study."

Edwina picked up 'Grosell's Travel Notes' from the desk and handed it to Audis: "It's a gift for you, as a reward for rescuing me."

Audis smiled and said: "After I release them, I will return the 'Travel Notes' to you, because I happen to have something else I want to ask for your help with."

He looked at Klein: "I remember you mentioned this 'Travel Notes'. If you want it, how about considering it Edwina's reward?

"Well, it's not that I don't want it that I'm giving it to you. I also really want to get this 'Travel Notes', but I have more important things to ask 'Iceberg Admiral' to help with."

Klein's stern face didn't show a trace of emotion: "Okay."

His spirituality sensed that this book was very unusual, and he really wanted to take it back and study it.

Edwina, who was on the side, smiled and said: "In any case, I still want to thank you for your help."

Then she looked at Audis: "What do you need my help with?"

Audis didn't answer the question directly, but said: "After our current operation is over, I would like to invite you to Krus Island.

"At that time, we will talk about this matter again."

Edwina nodded: "Okay."

Next, after Audis sent Klein back to Olavi Island, he returned to the "Argo"'s studio to study how to release Grosell and the others.

To save time, he put the 'Travel Notes' into the 'Knowledge Wilderness' and studied and thought with the help of two 'Intelligent Puppets'.

After a certain amount of simulated experiments, he soon had two ideas. The first idea was to make Grosell and the others become demigods. After having divinity, the laws of the real world would have to 'hold their noses' and acknowledge their existence.

But Audis, who was currently at Sequence 5, felt a headache just thinking about five demigod-level characteristics.

This method was obviously not very realistic.

The second idea was to 'deceive' the laws of the real world. After all, this was a world with extraordinary power, and extraordinary existences were like 'loopholes' in the 'laws' themselves.

As for how to 'deceive', Audis also had a good idea: use a 'Cheater' characteristic, combined with a corresponding magic array, to create a mystical item.

As long as they wear this mystical item, they will be able to, to a certain extent, be detached from certain rules of the real world.

Next, Audis began to design the magic array. At first, he planned to 'deceive' time, so that the outside world's time would ignore the time Grosell and the others spent in the book.

But Audis soon discovered that this was too difficult, unless there was a 'Theft Master' demigod-level characteristic, it would be impossible to complete the deception of time.

So he changed his mind and set up a protection for Grosell and the others, concealing some of their own manifestations, in order to deceive the real world.

This idea was relatively simple. Audis spent a week in the 'Knowledge Wilderness' designing the magic array, and then handed it over to the two 'Intelligent Puppets' for demonstration.

Next was the problem of solving the 'Cheater' characteristic. A total of five characteristics were needed. The total value was not high, only about 3,000 pounds, but for a while, Audis couldn't find so many characteristics all at once.

After thinking about it for a while, Audis planned to write to Leonard to ask if he had any.

As soon as he took out the paper and pen, he stopped, because writing to a 'Red Gloves' member and asking if he had any extraordinary characteristics of the 'Theft Master' path sounded very strange.

And it should instantly alert the poet classmate, after all, few people... or rather, in Leonard's feeling, no one knows that there is an old grandfather of the 'Error' path hidden in his body.

Taking a deep breath, Audis wrote to Hugh in Backlund and Allen in Bayam, asking them to use the channels of the Mysticism Research Society and the Intelligence Exchange Meeting to purchase the extraordinary characteristics of the 'Cheater'.

In the letter to Hugh, he also asked her to help investigate the Edward family who once lived at 18 Delahair Street in the Northwest District.

Then he used the 'Travel' ability to come to the 'Golden Dream' again. It was already late at night. The crew members were holding a banquet to celebrate the captain's safe return. After Audis came to the ship, the atmosphere of the banquet suddenly cooled down.

"You guys continue." Audis said: "I have something to talk to your captain about."

With that, he skillfully went to Edwina's study.

So many crew members who were drinking quickly put down their glasses and started to 'clean' the corridor outside the study.

Audis knocked on the door of the study and entered the 'Iceberg Admiral's' study after obtaining permission, and explained his intention.

Edwina was slightly stunned: "You already have an idea?"

It had been less than 3 hours since Audis left the study before.

Audis nodded: "I have a good idea. I need a 'Cheater' characteristic to do an experiment."

Edwina said: "I don't have one, but I know that Third Mate Jordson has a mystical item that corresponds to 'Cheater'."

"Is a mystical item okay?"

Audis replied: "It's okay too."

Smashing the mystical item will get the 'Cheater' characteristic, and it comes with a 'Theft Master' characteristic.

Edwina "hmm"ed and waved her hand, and a door in the study opened.

She saw that there were "just" many crew members outside, so she said to them: "Call Johansen over."

Johansen hurried over after hearing the summons, finally having the opportunity to listen to the conversation between the "Admiral of Mysteries" and the captain.

When he learned that the "Admiral of Mysteries" needed the mystical item in his hand, Johansen offered the price: "1000 pounds."

Before Audis could bargain, Edwina said: "After all, this is something that came about to save me. I can't let you bear the cost of the experiment yourself. I will buy this mystical item and give it to you."

"Thank you." Audis looked at Johansen again: "If your captain needs this mystical item, would you offer the same price?"

The handsome Johansen smiled: "That's an internal transaction on the 'Golden Dream', of course it's not this price."

Audis asked: "Then how much would you offer?"

"200 pounds."

Audis smiled: "Hehe."

He thought: I despise you.

With Edwina's help, he bought the pendant-shaped mystical item. After Audis got it, he said goodbye and left.

It was already quite late today, and Audis was a little tired, so he just smashed the characteristic of the mystical item and returned to the real world to rest.

He thought about it and wrote to Klein, telling him about his research on Grosell and the others returning to the real world, and that he needed the extraordinary characteristics of the "Cheater", hoping he could help pay attention to it.

After summoning the messenger, Audis suddenly thought of a question and said: "I have a question I want to ask."

The messenger dressed in classic hunting attire said: "Speak."

"When advancing to 'Mystic Scholar', what are the requirements for the path of the drop of blood being studied?"

"Theoretically, there are none." Messenger Ailebera Stiano explained: "However, the blood of some path mythological creatures is helpful for the abilities after becoming a demigod.

"Studying the blood of a mythological creature of the 'Diviner' path strengthens the ability of 'Reappearance' after advancing to 'Mystic Scholar'.

"Studying the blood of a mythological creature of the 'Monster' path strengthens the ability of prophecy after advancing to 'Prophet'.

"Studying the blood of a mythological creature of the 'All-Knowing' path will grant the ability to create mystical items after advancing to a demigod.

"Studying the blood of a mythological creature of your own path strengthens both the 'Mystic Scholar' and 'Prophet' abilities, and can also provide some help in advancing to an angel."

Audis thought: In this way, studying the blood of a mythological creature of this path is the optimal solution.

But the question is, where is he going to get the blood of a mythological creature of the 'Seer' path?

Then he asked: "What about the blood of a mythological creature of the 'Sailor' path?"

Ailebera patiently replied: "It will strengthen your 'Reappearance' of some mysterious scenes or characters related to lightning and storms."

Audis asked a little unwillingly: "What if it's 'God's Blood'? What advantages would there be?"

Since obtaining the 'Elven King's' God's Blood, Audis had planned to advance by studying God's Blood, but after hearing the messenger's answer, he was a little shaken.

Ailebera replied: "It can make it easier for you to complete the advancement process."

Audis was a little disappointed. It seemed that there was no "bonus".

After thanking Miss Messenger, Audis told her where his letter should be sent.

The next day, it rained lightly on the sea, but the wind was not strong, which did not hinder the ship's sailing.

The fleet consisting of the "Argo" and the "Golden Dream" was about two days away from Nohaus Island.

Audis, who had finished breakfast, was about to go to the captain's room to discuss the next plan with the first mate when suddenly a mysterious and majestic figure sitting on a bronze chair with a high back appeared in his mind.

That's 'The Fool'!

Then the picture turned and became a picture of a blue-haired man praying: "The Fool who does not belong to this era... Respected Mr. 'Fool', please tell 'Hermit'."

"The Storm Church's fleet, consisting of two pirate ships, has already headed to Nohrhaus Harbor, preparing to wait for him there. Currently, our received order is to track him and the 'Iceberg Admiral's' fleet."

Audis was stunned: Hearing this, the 'Hanged Man's' ghost ship is one of the "two pirate ships."

He pondered for a moment, and also said in a tone of prayer: "The Fool who does not belong to this era... Respected 'Fool' Sir, please tell the Hanged Man."

"The 'Iceberg Admiral' and I have obtained information about a demigod-level extraordinary characteristic of the 'Sailor' pathway. This voyage is an attempt to obtain that characteristic."

"However, the Eternal Blazing Sun Church and the Storm Church have also obtained similar information, but they may not know the specific location of that characteristic, so they are keeping an eye on us."

......

Kleine on the gray fog thought after hearing this prayer: No wonder the Storm Church dispatched pirate ships to track them. It is estimated that the Storm Church's fleet is not far from there. As long as they know that Audis and Edwina have succeeded, they will immediately rush to seize it.

Then he thought that the "Iceberg Admiral" has the background of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom: This is not just about finding a demigod-level extraordinary characteristic, but a struggle between the three churches. Should Mr. Gahl know his current situation?

Kleine also thought that Audis has cooperation with the Navy and the Church of the Night Goddess, so there should be no danger.

Thinking of this, he threw Mr. Gahl's prayer screen into the star representing the "Hanged Man."

......

Alger, who finally had the opportunity to temporarily detach himself from his crew, was somewhat surprised to hear the "Fool's" relay of the "Hermit's" reply.

Originally, he had guessed that the "Hermit" and the "Iceberg Admiral" might have made some discoveries.

But what he didn't expect was that they had discovered a demigod-level extraordinary characteristic, and the Eternal Blazing Sun Church had also received the news, and would definitely send people to compete for it.

This made Alger realize that a fierce battle might break out near Nohrhaus Island among the various parties.

......

After Audis finished communicating with the "Hanged Man," he paced and thought in the studio for a while, then came to the cockpit and ordered the first mate Bazel on duty to sail to the port of Nohrhaus Island.

Since the audience is already in place, the actors should also take the stage.

Then Audis returned to the studio to continue yesterday's research. In the "Wilderness of Knowledge," he used the characteristics of the "Deceiver" and corresponding spiritual materials to create a magical item in the shape of a pendant.

After repeatedly checking its function, Audis took the 《Grosell's Travels》 back to the real world. He was about to start his plan, but after hesitating slightly, he used "Travel" to go to the "Golden Dream" and invited the "Iceberg Admiral" to be his assistant.

Saying assistant, in fact, is to let the other party be an observer, after all, she is also more concerned about this matter.

Edwina did not expect that Audis would have results so quickly, and gladly accepted the invitation, and came to the "Argo" together.

As soon as she entered Audis's studio, she saw layers of magic circles on the ground.

Audis explained: "Just in case."

Then he said: "I will enter 《Travels》, you wait outside for a while."

Edwina agreed.

Audis cut his finger with a dagger and smeared the blood on the spine of 《Grosell's Travels》. The next second, his vision was once again covered by blizzards.

He took out the crystal ball to divine, divining that Grosell and others were still guarding the camp. After determining the general location, he directly used "Flight" to find it.

After flying for more than ten minutes, Audis found the cave that served as the camp. Shatas, who was waiting at the entrance of the cave, asked loudly after seeing Audis's figure in the air: "Do you have a solution?"

"Yes." Audis said as he descended, entered the camp, took out the pendant and explained his research in general.

Ascetic Snowman and Solomon's nobleman Mobet can barely understand Audis's meaning, but others seem not to understand it very well.

Shatas sighed somewhat blankly: "Sure enough, people who hold the 'Gusfa Staff' are knowledgeable."

Audis smiled and said: "My plan is theoretically no problem, but for safety reasons, I still have to ask one of you to try it first."

Grosell and others' moods suddenly became very complicated, both yearning to go out and worried about whether there would be any danger.

At this time, Grosell, who was more than four meters tall, stood up and said: "I will go out first to verify your plan."

Seeing that Grosell volunteered to be the test subject, Audis smiled and said: "Your goal is too big. I hope the first person to go out is a normal human being."

"Well, I'll do some more preparation before letting Grosell and Shatas go out."

Longzail from Backlund was about to volunteer, but "Dream Thief" Mobet, who was more experienced in dealing with people, asked Audis first: "What's your plan?"

"I hope Snowman will do this experiment." Audis said: "It's best for Grosell to wait for me to prepare before going out, and it's best for Mobet and Shatas to go out together."

"And Longzail's situation is special. You took the potion in 《Travels》, and I need to do further preparation before I dare to take you out."

"So in my opinion, it's best for Snowman to go out first to prove that my method is feasible."

"Then give me time, and I will collect the necessary materials and take the rest of the people out."

Mobet was the first to say: "I agree."

There is no mistake, one first, one inside, one content, one look, one see!

Everyone else realized that it was best to listen to Audis's arrangement at this time, so they expressed their agreement.

So Audis gave the pendant to Snowman. At the location where the "King of the North" died, the two ice and snow-covered double doors still existed.

Everyone came to the door together. Audis pushed open the door. After the others saw Edwina outside, they immediately gained another point of confidence.

Audis took the first step out. Snowman, who was carrying the pendant, followed out after a simple prayer.

When Snowman completely stepped out of the door, everyone's hearts were in their throats.

One second, two seconds, three seconds passed, and there was no change in Snowman's body. Audis smiled and announced: "Success!"

Inside the door, Shatas's cheers immediately rang out.

At this time, the door slowly closed, but this time, whether it was the people inside or the people outside, they were relieved.

Audis said to Snowman: "I'll use a magical item for you first..."

Seeing the ascetic in front of him showing a confused look, he said in ancient Hermes: "I have prepared a magical item that can teach you a mainstream language now, and then take you to the island I rule, you first adapt to the outside environment."

Snowman understood this time: "No problem."

Edwina actually hoped that Snowman could go to Lenburg with her. After all, this is an ascetic from the Third Epoch, and the knowledge he has stored is exactly what the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom values.

However, she did not snatch people from Audis, after all, this ascetic was rescued by Audis.

After briefly explaining the principle of the "Wisdom Helmet" to Snowman, Audis used this magical item to instill knowledge about the writing of Ruen language and Ruen characters into Snowman.

Then he used "Travel" to take him to Cruz Island, and briefly explained the situation of this ascetic to Rupert, who was on duty here.

And let Rupert coordinate with the town government to draw a piece of land on the mountain opposite Lighthouse Mountain to build a new village.

At present, this village only has a few houses built, one of which must be at least eight meters high, and the door must be five meters high.

Rupert smiled when he heard this order: "Are you building a house for giants?"

Audis nodded: "Yes."

Rupert thought that the captain was joking, and didn't take it too seriously. After all, the main tribe of giants has been extinct for nearly two epochs.

Then Audis instructed that after preparing a place for Snowman to live, send him to school and send someone to arrange for him to walk around and understand the surrounding environment.

After settling Snowman, Audis returned to the "Argo" and reconfirmed the next plan with Edwina, then sent Edwina back to the "Golden Dream."

......

Audis didn't have anything else to do these two days, so he went to the cockpit and sat in the captain's seat, looking ahead and daydreaming.

Or go to the restaurant to drink beer and brag with the crew.

Since having two "intelligent puppets" in the "Wilderness of Knowledge," Audis has been able to occasionally enjoy some leisure time.

For him, the most important thing at the moment is to rescue Grosell and others as soon as possible, but he still has to wait for replies from Hugh, Allen, and others to see if he can trade for the "Fraudster" characteristics.

Audis wandered around the ship casually like this, occasionally returning to the studio to design some new inventions or think about some problems.

Such a beautiful time always passes quickly. Audis felt that it was Monday afternoon in the blink of an eye.

He had made preparations early and lay on the easy chair in the captain's room.

At three o'clock sharp, Audis's vision was covered by gray fog.

Miss "Justice" got up gracefully and greeted in a slightly cheerful tone: "Good afternoon, 'Fool' Sir."

Audrey has been in a good mood recently. By chatting, she has helped the people around her solve some psychological problems and received very good feedback. This has allowed her to summarize more "psychologist" acting rules, and she is not far from completely digesting the potion.

"Fool" Klein also felt "Justice's" good mood, as if infected, nodded with a smile, as a response.

When the greetings concluded, "The Priestess" Cattleya looked towards the head of the long bronze table and said, "Honorable Mr. 'Fool', I have 'collected' three pages of Roselle's diary."

Klien appeared calm on the surface, but inside, he was somewhat expectant: It's here. I wonder if the three pages of the diary specially selected by the 'Mysterious Queen' will contain highly valuable information?

He said calmly, "Very good, you may make a request."

"Yes, Mr. 'Fool'." Then, with Klien's help, Cattleya materialized the contents of the diary.

Klien read it line by line. The amount of information in these three pages of the diary was indeed significant. There was Roselle's worry about his second son, Bonova. Roselle and Bernadette both felt that Bonova's humanity was weakening.

There was also Roselle's determination to jump to an adjacent pathway and his mental activities. Roselle speculated that the "Hidden Sage" was not a true god and should have one or two Sequence 1 characteristics that were not in the "Hidden Sage's" control.

The last paragraph of the diary was about Roselle seeing something and resolving to become a god at any cost.

Even just reading the last part of the diary made one's head spin, and one could roughly feel the mental shock Roselle had suffered.

Klien pondered for a few seconds before making the three pages of the diary disappear, and looked at "The Priestess" and asked, "Have you thought about your request?"

Cattleya stood up and asked, "I want to know, why did Emperor Roselle go mad in his later years?"

"Justice" Audrey wondered if she had misheard. She never expected "The Priestess" to ask such a significant question right away.

And how did she know that Emperor Roselle went mad in his later years?

"The Hanged Man" Alger, "The Moon" Emlyn, and "The Magician" Fors also held their breaths, turning their gazes to the head of the long bronze table.

Only "The Sun" Derrick and "The Hermit" Alger were not very interested in this.

"The Fool" Klien breathed a slight sigh of relief, but he still needed to say something in advance. He chuckled lightly and said, "First of all, we need to establish a fact.

"I am neither omniscient nor omnipotent."

He said this in a self-deprecating and relaxed tone, but the other members did not feel anything strange. After all, none of the current true gods or evil gods had a title that implied omniscience or omnipotence.

Alger thought to himself: This guy's act of playing the mysterious is something I can't even dream of.

This sentence was equivalent to setting the tone in a way that everyone could accept: If you ask questions in the future that are in Mr. "Fool's" blind spot of knowledge, then you are being ignorant.

With this tone established, Klien calmly replied, "Because of certain stimuli and influences, Roselle set his sights on Sequence 0.

"This process caused him to go mad."

Klien wasn't sure about the specific process. He only guessed that Roselle should have jumped to a non-adjacent pathway.

Because the initial pathway Roselle chose was the "Scholar of Yore" pathway, and there had been true gods in this pathway since the Fourth Epoch.

And after he jumped to an adjacent pathway, the "Hidden Sage" was still above him.

Although Klien didn't know the specific situation of the "Hidden Sage", He was at least an existence at the level of an Angel King with a Uniqueness and a Sequence 1 characteristic.

Even if Roselle gathered the other two Sequence 1 characteristics and became an Angel King, it would be difficult for him to kill the "Hidden Sage" in a short period of time and become a true god.

So he could only find another way and think of other methods.

Roselle's diary mentioned some secret information about the "Blood Emperor" more than once. He should have known about the "Blood Emperor's" jump to a non-adjacent pathway.

Then the matter was very obvious. The madness that Roselle showed in his "later years" was likely a "side effect" of jumping to a non-adjacent pathway.

However, these were all Klien's guesses, so his answer could only vaguely explain the problem, because he didn't know the specific process either.

The other members were quite moved when they heard Mr. "Fool's" answer. They didn't expect the Great Emperor to have such an experience.

At the same time, they almost all believed that the Great Emperor should not have succeeded. If he was a god, he would not have been assassinated.

Cattleya thanked him thoughtfully. Klien then said, "You may begin."

As soon as he finished speaking, Alger was the first to say, "Everyone, I need a few 'Pyromaniac' Beyonder characteristics. Sequence 8 or higher Sequence 8 magical items from this pathway are also acceptable.

"May I ask who among you has them? Or can obtain them through the appropriate channels?"

"Justice" Audrey asked curiously, "Mr. 'Hermit', may I ask what you need so many 'Pyromaniac' pathway Beyonder characteristics for?"

Alger replied frankly, "To do an important experiment."

Some of the other members lamented Alger's wealth, actually using Sequence 8 level characteristics for experiments, while others were even more curious about what kind of experiment Alger was conducting.

"The Priestess" Cattleya said, "I just happened to have obtained relevant clues. I can help you trade for a 'Pyromaniac' characteristic tonight for 600 pounds."

Alger readily said, "Deal."

He looked around at the others, and when he saw that no one else spoke, he knew that they didn't have the characteristics of this pathway, or that their channels couldn't obtain the characteristics of this pathway.

At this time, "The World" suddenly said to Alger, "I hope to communicate with you privately."

Alger guessed that the letter he had written to Klien before, asking him to help collect the characteristics of the "Pyromaniac", meant that he should have a clue.

So Alger agreed to communicate privately. After establishing a private communication environment, Klien manipulated "The World" and said, "I will also be able to obtain a 'Pyromaniac' characteristic in a while, and I will give it to you at the latest tonight."

Alger smiled slightly and asked, "How much money?"

"No reward." Klien said, "After all, I have also fought with Grosel and others."

When he was inquiring about the "Pyromaniac" characteristics, he accidentally encountered a "Pyromaniac" who was cheating people out of money and sex, and had already cheated many people.

So Klien prepared to hunt him down and give the characteristics to Alger.

Of course, the most important thing was that this characteristic was easy to obtain and was not obtained through trading or bought with pounds, so Klien was so generous.

If he had bought it with money, it would be another matter.

Alger smiled and said, "Okay, I'll wait for your good news."

After ending the private communication, Klien saw that no one continued to speak, which meant that Alger's transaction was over.

So he once again manipulated "The World" and looked towards "The Sun" Derrick: "The 'Appraiser' potion formula you wanted is here."

Derrick said happily, "Thank you, Mr. 'World'. According to the agreement, I will remember this debt and wait for you to make a request.

"Of course, if you need pounds, I can also negotiate with Mr. 'Hermit' to exchange some Beyonder materials for pounds."

Klien manipulated "The World" and replied, "I don't need pounds for the time being. If I have any needs, I will tell you after I have thought about it."

In the hunt for Jill Scies, the third mate of the "Ghost Shark", and the exploration of the whale, Klien had accumulated more than 10,000 pounds.

In addition to those gold coins that could not be used for future transactions with the messenger, the rest of the money, plus his previous savings, made him unprecedentedly wealthy.

Derrick nodded: "Okay."

Soon he got the potion formula and began to browse it eagerly.
