Seeing the letter from one of the heads of the headless messenger Reinette Tinekerr floating to the ground, Angel was about to take out the gold coins to pay, but saw the four heads shaking their heads in unison, and then spoke one by one:
"That..." "The woman on the boat..." "Already..." "Already paid..."
The woman on the boat... refers to Anne?
Angel was stunned for a moment, then realized that after sending letters back and forth several times, Reinette actually dared to secretly give that "Balancer" a nickname.
I don't know what my nickname is in His mouth... She murmured, picked up the letter and took a look at it, and found that it was actually written by Bernadette, not Anne who stayed in "Dream City" Partis.
"... I have recently continued to track the followers of 'Great Mother' and Nast Solomon within the territory of Intis. I almost caught them several times, but without the help of prophecy and divination, I was always a step slower, leaving only contaminated innocents and dilapidated villages...
"... I suspect that there are some believers among them who have divination abilities, or Beyonder who can see the future in the river of destiny and respond in advance. After several failed arrests, and from a local administrator who had no time to escape and commit suicide, I learned about a new secret organization that was cooperating with Nast and the others, 'School of Truth'...
"... They believe in a pale white mist, which has the ability to make both parties sign a contract and abide by the agreement to achieve their goals. I suspect this has something to do with 'Arbiter' Pathway, but there is no True God in that Pathway, and the characteristics of the three Sequence 1 have not been lost..."
"... But the administrator mentioned the appearance of the leader of 'School of Truth'. After investigation, it is likely that he belongs to a descendant of the 'Tamara' family. This is also consistent with the extraordinary power of 'Arbiter' Pathway...
"I will continue to investigate at Intis and report the progress to you regularly through Anne."
After quickly reading Bernadette's "investigation report" focusing on the key points, Angel fell into deep thought.
She knew before that because the involvement of "Mother Goddess of Depravity" and Outer Deity was equivalent to blocking the tracker's divination and prophecy methods, it would be difficult to track the believers of "Great Mother", but she did not expect that one day Months have passed. On the territory of Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun and Church of Steam, despite the efforts of Bernadette's "Element Dawn", Nast Solomon was still not found.
It would be fine if this Pirate King just slipped back to the sea and hid, but from Bernadette's narrative, Angel can see that he and other believers have been secretly preaching in different locations, or deceiving or misleading local residents to become believers of "Great Mother" and join in their sacrifices.
And now there is another "School of Truth"...
Angel still remembers that when Belon Village, who first discovered traces of Nast, destroyed the altar surrounded by deformed babies, in addition to the blood-red breath belonging to "Mother Goddess of Depravity", there was also a pale white smoke that left in frustration.
Does this belong to the existence that School of Truth believes in?
Is He a mysterious "Arbiter" Angel, an evil god like "True Creator" or "Primordial Demoness", or... the image of a certain Outer Deity inside the earth, just like "Primordial Moon"?
In addition to the pale white mist, what concerned her was the fact that Tamara Family's descendants were also involved in Nast's plan.
According to the information obtained from Dorian Gray Abraham and Alicia Tamara, the Angel family where Fourth Epoch exists has split into many different descendants. Some insist on going "Arbiter", that is, "Judgment" Pathway, Yalixiya is obviously this faction; there are also those who have changed to "Apprentice" Pathway, and are closely related to the Demoness Sect and "Gnostic Society".
So, will the one who joins "School of Truth" and has the power of "Arbiter" belong to the faction that Yalixiya belongs to?
The figure of the lady with weird clothes and old-fashioned face appeared in his mind again. Angel frowned and was about to write a letter to question the other party. Suddenly he found that Reinette was still floating in the air, as if waiting for her. He quickly picked up a pen and paper and wrote a reply to Anne and Bernadette.
"Leave it to the woman on the boat."
She said while suppressing a smile, and handed the letter and a gold coin to the other party.
The content of the letter was very simple. In addition to replying to Bernadette, asking her to be careful about the contamination of the power of "Great Mother" when tracking Nast, it also asked Anne to be careful about whether the clone of Amon next to her was connected to the main body.
Although the clone of Amon with the pseudonym Goredolf claimed that he possessed the memories and personalities of both sides due to an accident during parasitism, Angel was always a little worried, especially when Klein arrived at "Forsaken Land of the Gods" but never encountered the present of Amon.
Judging from the days when Klein was wandering around Forsaken Land of the Gods, apart from discovering a few ruins that had been abandoned for at least a hundred years and initially determining the location of City of Silver, he did not encounter any living people at all, not even Amon!
Not only Klein, but also Angel has a guess: Amon, who claims to be located in Forsaken Land of the Gods, has left that dark and desolate continent and returned to the prosperous South North Continent, right?
If the main body appears, neither Angel nor Anne can be sure whether the clone of Amon who works in "Dream City" will remain loyal.
In short, let Anne keep an eye on him first. Amon's main body should not try to attack the city protected by "Hand of Order". This will not do him any good...Angel thought about it, and then wrote a letter, using a spell to summon a messenger who belonged exclusively to Alicia Tamara, requesting to meet with the representative of the Tamara Family.
After finishing all this, she summoned the maid and asked the chef in Iris Flower Winery to prepare a simple afternoon tea to satisfy her appetite.
After being promoted to "Catastrophe" Demoness, she no longer needs to eat in the traditional sense. In doing so, she simply maintains her previous living habits and uses food to maintain her self-perceived "humanity" instead of being dominated by the desire to destroy and kill that repeatedly emerged in her heart after becoming Angel.
Angel had a brief discussion about this matter with Anne, who is also Angel. Due to the special nature of "Balancer", the latter does not need many anchors to maintain itself, and she has lost most of her memories before becoming Ghost Ship. I only remember that I am called "Adele Trensuost", and I have spent my entire "life" experience in the existence of Ghost Ship, so that similar to many born Mythical Creature, the residual Mental Imprint in Beyonder Characteristic has a very weak impact on it.
Trunsoest... She can't really be the descendant of "Night Emperor", right? It was originally thought that Anne became the consul of "Dream City" by chance. Now it seems that it may be the aggregation of Beyonder Characteristic, or the influence of destiny...
While enjoying the baked cookies and warm milk as afternoon tea, Angel's thoughts returned to him from Anne.
After being attacked by the Demoness Sect the moment she left "Forsaken Land of the Gods", she originally thought that she would face more attacks one after another, so she was always ready to fight. However, she did not expect that after "Blue Witch" escaped, Demoness Sect seemed to have given up and there was no more movement.
Could it be that they were really just testing, rather than intending to make me tired of the successive attacks and eventually die under the attacks... But the actions of "Blue Witch" also represent the purpose of the Demoness Sect. They must solve me, the alien among Demoness, for "Primordial Demoness" Cheek...
But "White Saint" Katarina represents another faction. She has been showing her favor to me before, and she directly revealed the internal information of the sect a few days ago, although it was a few minutes late... If Winning them over and attacking "Gray", "Blue" and other Demoness will completely divide Demoness Sect and make "Primordial Demoness" lose its anchor and have no time to take care of me?
Angel Thoughts kept flashing through his mind, but in the end they came to the biggest problem:
Just like "Blue Witch" uses Sealed Artifact to attack Angel's stand-in, Angel cannot completely kill "Unaging" and "Catastrophe"Demoness's Mirror Person, which means that their resurrection cannot be prevented. Even if they find their traces and deal with these Demoness in battle, killing them will be in vain.
For this problem, Angelica's Mirror Person gave a solution: jump to Adjacent Pathways and be promoted to "Conqueror". The "Weakness Detection" owned by Sequence A combined attack on the main body is enough to kill the stand-in used by Demoness to resurrect, the main body Seer controls and isolates with multiple Marionette, or the endless clones of Marauder.
Or, if you get the "Conqueror" feature of Fourth Epoch Trier, you may be able to achieve similar effects with the preliminary application of Beyonder Characteristic.
This conclusion makes Angel even more worried, because "Primordial Demoness" Cheek may have obtained the "Conqueror" characteristics that originally belonged to the Augustus Family.
Did he intend to use this to promote "Great Old One", or had he already anticipated it and planned to use it to kill Angel and Mirror Person hidden in the "City of Calamity" image?
A bolt of lightning flashed across the dark sky, illuminating the desolate Earth Mother next to Klein and his Marionette Legion.
He drank down the Black Bear Cola in his hand, burped, threw away the empty glass bottle, and immediately exchanged places with Marionette on the other side of the team.
This is not just littering everywhere. In a few minutes, this empty bottle will disappear into nothingness along with the Cola he drank into his stomach, returning to the historical fragments they originally belonged to.
But at least during this period of time, sugar and carbonic acid gas can bring him a false sense of happiness and satisfaction.
Looking up at the sky where the lightning gradually stopped, Klein knew that another "night" was coming.
In the previous description of "Sun" Derrick, he knew that Forsaken Land of the Gods's lightning has cycles of different frequencies. Each cycle is roughly equivalent to a day in the outside world. Most of the time, the lightning frequency is dense, and there are also a few hours when it completely subsides.
This period of time is called "Evernight". Once you move away from the light source, you will be completely swallowed by darkness.
It's time to rest... Go to Grey Mist, do a divination, correct the direction, and then take "disinfection" measures and change a batch of Marionette to avoid being tracked by some beings... He muttered silently, preparing to find a dry river bed or a leeward spot on a hillside as a resting place.
At this moment, the last lightning in front of Evernight pierced the sky, illuminating a city wall on the horizon and the dense buildings behind the wall.
Among them, a pair of twin stone towers stand tall, one with a spire and one with a dome.
That's the City of Silver that Klein has been looking for for a long time!
