Seeing the answer Arrodes gave without hesitation, a chill slowly rose in Angel's heart, like walking into a heart-breaking lake in the depths of winter, being eroded by the biting cold from the toes to the top of his head.
Because she knows that the answer is Error.
Tudor, as "Red Priest" True God, naturally accommodated the corresponding share of Uniqueness, and according to history, it retained it for at least several hundred years. It was not until Four Emperors War fell that it was acquired by "Nether Emperor" Salinger.
The latter was besieged by the True God Sect a hundred years later in Pale Calamity, and fell in the Berserk Sea - to be precise, it was his fall that created the Berserk Sea that is still difficult for ships to pass - and left behind the "0" level Sealed Artifact and "Salinger’s Blood Banner" now numbered "01".
This Two Gods undoubtedly once owned "0-01". As for whether Salinger tried to accommodate this Uniqueness that was not Adjacent Pathways, or just used it as a powerful Sealed Artifact, Angel is unknown.
But in addition to the two True God, there is an obvious answer to "Who has ever owned 0-01": "Red Angel" Medici.
From the conversation with the three-in-one evil spirit at the entrance to the underground ruins of Backlund, as well as the records of Roselle's Diary and the narrations of other high-ranking beings, Angel learned that when Tudor jumped from "Black Emperor" Sequence 1 to not Adjacent Pathways "Red Priest", they respectively changed from Medici, Einhorn and Sauron took away all the characteristics and Uniqueness from Hunter, who was Sequence 1 "Conqueror" at the time, and were promoted to True God at the cost of half madness to avoid the risk of being lowered in status due to the return of "Black Emperor" Solomon.
Only if it contains multiple copies of Sequence 1 Characteristic, or has the characteristics of Uniqueness, can it be called "King of Angel".
Therefore, Third Epoch follows Ancient Sun God. Medici, who is known as "Red Angel", must also have Uniqueness of "Red Priest" in addition to his own share of Sequence 1 Characteristic.
Although this matter is secretive and almost no one knows about it, as long as you have the corresponding knowledge, it is easy to make correct inferences. As a master of prophecy and divination, how could Arrodes, who summoned Charm with a mixture of "secret" and "peeping" symbols, not know?
Arrodes is no longer trustworthy? Is it because Klein went to Forsaken Land of the Gods and it couldn't sense its "master", so it started talking nonsense, or... it has been controlled by Amon, Zarathus or other enemies and is providing me with information about Error?
Angel's thoughts were running like lightning, but his expression did not change at all. He just nodded and said:
"It's your turn to ask questions."
Silver-white words burst out one after another on the mirror:
"Dear Mistress, I would like to know when the master will return from 'Forsaken Land of the Gods'?"
Is this its purpose? I want to know the whereabouts of Klein... Angel felt more and more that there was something wrong in Arrodes's heart. His thoughts flashed and he gave a wide-ranging answer:
"If it's fast, it's one or two weeks, if it's slow, it may take more than half a year."
"Thank you for your answer! If he returns to the North Continent or Backlund, can your humble servant know the news as soon as possible?"
If it had been a few minutes ago, Angel would have thought that this was another question of Arrodes's "sending", but at this time, she felt that there was something in the other person's words and had bad intentions.
"Okay."
She nodded and replied. The conversations with Arrodes kept reappearing in her memory. She searched for the other party's answers one by one, but was surprised to find that almost all the answers had been verified, which fully proved that the other party was not lying.
Then why does Arrodes, the owner of "Salinger’s Blood Banner", want to have Lies that can be seen at a glance?
... Can it be seen at a glance?
Angel Lightning flashed in his mind.
Could it be that Arrodes is telling me in a subtle way that "Salinger’s Blood Banner" has a fourth owner besides Tudor and Salinger, True God and "Red Angel" Medici?
There's no way it's going to end up being something wrong. It's actually saying "God of Knowledge and Wisdom"...
Angel had constant thoughts in his mind and did not ask any questions for a while. It was not until a questioning expression composed of various simple punctuation marks gradually appeared in the half-length mirror in front of him that he calmed down and asked:
"What do you know about Apotheosis Ritual of 'Blasphemer' Amon?"
This is another question whose answer has been "verified" by Pales Zoroaster. Angel wants to use this to determine whether Arrodes's answer just now was deliberately concealed, or whether it was to remind her of something.
This time it was as black as ink, and there seemed to be a mirror like Gray Fog inside. I waited for a while before the words appeared:
"Apotheosis Ritual of 'Angel of Time' Amon needs to take his place when other Sequence 1 board God's Throne, but not all Pathway can be targets. For him, the best choice is 'Seer' and 'Apprentice'Pathway, so that once he succeeds, he can directly become the True God of Dual Pathways, instead of mixing other Beyonder Characteristics and powers that are not Adjacent Pathways, causing the risk of losing control."
Dual Pathways's...True God?
When Angel heard this description for the first time, he was momentarily stunned, but he quickly realized that this was probably the first step for True God of Sequence 0 to become "Great Old One": to control the characteristics of Uniqueness of Adjacent Pathways and a copy of Sequence 1.
This can also explain why Amon did not choose Apotheosis Ritual who was not Adjacent Pathways, because it replaced the other party, such as replacing George III to become "Black Emperor" and was promoted to "Black Emperor" at the same time. Error", Amon's body will contain two sets of non-adjacent Beyonder Characteristic, which can easily lead to loss of control and become Distortion God like those crazy ancient gods.
Even if Amon likes to play pranks and torment other people, it doesn't mean that he is so crazy that he doesn't even care about his own future.
Moreover, Amon can become a god through Apotheosis Ritual that replaces "Seer", which also reminds Angel of these two Pathway, plus "Apprentice" are three adjacent Pathway, and the Beyonder Characteristic that accommodates all three Pathway is the only way for Amon to become "Great Old One".
No wonder He has been looking for followers of Mr. Fool and is chasing after Klein. This is consistent with my previous speculation that Mr. Fool is a true god who has not yet regained his strength in the diviner path... He may have lost some of his extraordinary characteristics, so he can only hide behind the scenes, waiting for his true recovery and return to the stage of history...
Angel recalled in his mind Zarathus and Antigonus who had the characteristics of "Mystic Seer", as well as the evil spirit "Red Angel" who used to be King of Angel, but whose characteristics were finally taken away, and suddenly asked:
"Sequence 0 of 'Seer'... is called 'Fool', right?"
This time, Arrodes in the mirror was silent for a long time, and then a line of Loenese appeared in a much smaller font than before:
"Yes, wise Mistress..."
Immediately following is another line of words whose silvery white color is somewhat dim, almost turning into gray:
"Can we change the subject, great Mistress? I'm worried about being known by that being."
It indirectly recognized the power of Mr. "Fool"... Could it be that Arrodes's respect for Klein is actually because he is the favored one of "Fool"?
Angel nodded in astonishment, realizing that the other party had sent him another question, and then asked:
"Do you know the location of Mr. Azik Eggers, the sleeping heir of Salinger, and the problems he faces?"
This is another alternative "goal" for her. If Arrodes fails to provide enough and effective information, she is ready to find Mr. Azik, who fell into a deep sleep half a year ago because his soul was torn and damaged, and try to get the answers she needs from Him.
Of course, this is on the basis of not disturbing the other person's rest.
A line of text quickly appeared on Arrodes's mirror, and a slightly hazy composition was attached below. It could be vaguely seen as an abandoned castle covered with vines and with many damaged walls:
"Balam Empire The former Archon is currently sleeping, waiting for His next awakening. He will forget everything after waking up, and start another sixty-year life with a new identity and new memories... The specific location is protected by a 'secret' power, and I can only spy on such a scene."
Secret... Angel chewed on the word and understood the hint of Arrodes.
The only person who can make it so fearful is another True God.
Because this question can also be verified by "people", Angel did not continue to ask, but squinted his eyes and said:
"That's it for today. I hope you can be more 'honest' next time we talk."
"I obey your instructions, great Mistress. Your humble servant is always waiting for your call~~"
Words burst out on the mirror, and finally there were two wavy lines representing mood.
As Arrodes left, the half-length mirror resumed its function, reflecting the somewhat gloomy face of Angel.
Until now, she couldn't really determine the true purpose of Magic Mirror, who called her Mistress when they first met and respected Klein to the point of flattery.
Reciting Mr. "Fool"'s Honorific Name in a low voice, she told Mr. "Seer" Pathway's suspicions about Arrodes through prayer. The apex, and hoped that he would convey it to the "world" Klein, asking him to review the information previously obtained from Arrodes and confirm the authenticity one by one, especially at the critical moment of finding the characteristics of "Miracle Invoker".
After Gray Fog dispersed, Angel stared at the ceiling, suddenly realizing that "Fool" might not have reassembled all the "Mystic Seer" Beyonder Characteristic he once owned.
Then... after Klein becomes "Miracle Invoker", will there be a chance to be promoted to Sequence 1 who is the same as Pathway?
Roaming in Mirror Tunnel, Angel soon came to Saint Samuel Cathedral of North Borough, got out of the stained glass next to the bell tower, and then entered Prayer Hall of the church through the main entrance.
She was going to pray to Goddess and ask about the whereabouts of Mr. Azik.
After all, it can be seen from Arrodes's answer that "Death Consul", who was originally the back-up man of "Death"'s resurrection and was rescued by Goddess by tearing his soul apart, is protected by "secret" power. Besides "Mother of Concealment", who else can possess this power?
At least Goddess did not leave Mr. Azik alone after taking away "Death" Uniqueness, but still provided him with the corresponding Sanctuary... Angel thought with relief, stepping into the Prayer Hall under the Crimson Moon holy emblem dotted with stars, and unexpectedly saw two acquaintances.
Leonard and Shermane.
Her expression immediately became very exciting, her footsteps instantly became silent, her figure disappeared into the shadows, her ears stood up, and she listened carefully to the exchange between the two.
