Reopening his eyes that he had closed for some time, Angel found that he had returned to the secret room under the constantly rotating Flesh Mill.

Crunch, crunch, the sound of a rusty machine running came to my ears, and the Ancient Hermes Script name "Ouroboros" was still on my retina. Angel trembled all over before recovering from the shock.

"If I had the same experience as Anderson, and fell into unlucky state due to witnessing the 'handwriting' of 'Angel of fate', 'Ouroboros' Ouroboros, then I'm afraid it would be dangerous to continue to stay here..."

Angel murmured, she lowered her head and quickly noted down the complex patterns on the floor, and then used Black Flame to burn everything in the secret room, along with the flesh and blood that had not been completely cleaned, annihilating all evidence of her presence.

After completing Anti-Divination, she carefully used Black Flame and Flaming Jump to pass through the collapsed passage and return to the ground.

At this time, the sky outside the mill was still dark, but unlike "Forsaken Land of the Gods", Crimson Moon and the messy stars were twinkling normally. A dark cloud passed by, blocking half of Moon, making the village below look a little dim.

It was only then that Angel was completely sure that he had left the area abandoned by God and spent thousands of years in darkness, and returned to Sona Island of the Berserk Sea.

"Thank you, Mr. Fool. I think with this information, 'I' will be able to survive the crisis safely and leave 'Forsaken Land of the Gods'."

Sitting in his own seat next to the long bronze table, Angel bowed his head and saluted "Fool" who was hidden behind Gray Fog on the long table, expressing his gratitude.

After leaving the mill, I found an empty house to rest for a while. After sealing the precious "Complete Poison Sac of the Black-Striped Shadow Scorpion" with Wall of Spirituality, the first thing Angel did was to recite Fool's Honorific Name, just like the "other her" did, told the key information to solve this Beyonder Creature to herself who was in "Forsaken Land of the Gods" at the same time.

Then, she was invited by Mr. Fool to the palace in Gray Fog, and they communicated in the empty Tarot Club party venue.

"But there is a paradox. There must be the first 'I' who can overcome the crisis and solve Black-Striped Shadow Scorpion on his own, in order to pass on the information and form Closed Loop. But with the key 'strategy', the results of the battle were so embarrassing. If I didn't know that the giant scorpion's weakness is photophobia, I am afraid that I would die in its hands without being fully prepared, and it would be impossible to keep the battle information..."

Angel said to himself, glancing at "Fool" secretly, expecting him to give some explanation.

Look at what I'm doing, I'm afraid I know less than you... Gray Fog Klein, who was covering his face, curled his lips and said in a deep voice:

"This needs to be explored and discovered by yourself."

Then, in order to change the topic, he took the initiative to ask about the specific situation that happened at "Forsaken Land of the Gods".

Angel honestly told everything, including that the structures of the villages on both sides of Sona Island and Forsaken Land of the Gods were similar, and there was even a "Burial Ground". He was in darkness but was not swallowed up. The effect of "Hidden Holy Emblem" gradually weakened. When he returned, he saw the names of two "King of Angel" on the stone altar.

After listening to this brief but ups and downs and huge amount of information about his adventure, Mr. "Fool" fell into a brief silence.

"You want to know if you ever suffered Misfortune because of the name 'Angel of fate'?"

After a moment, this God-like existence spoke out what Angel was thinking.

"Yes, I once met a cursed Hunter during God War Ruins's adventure. His entire Expedition Team was wiped out and he was the only one left. He often encountered bad luck and even easily attracted enemies that were difficult to deal with... I want to know if I have fallen into a similar state."

Angel felt happy in her heart. She was worried about how to ask Mr. Fool to help "transport", but she didn't expect that the other party took the initiative and took over the conversation in a hurry.

That's because I know your habits and your experiences... Klein mumbled silently, then pretended to be indifferent and answered in the same tone:

"You don't need to worry, Ouroboros has not left a mark on you."

I have had the experience of helping "Sun" Derrick eliminate the "Amon" parasite on the body. It can be confirmed that Klein has no similar effect on Gray Fog. Angel does not have a similar effect.

Even if there is, it will no longer exist after being "disinfected" by Grey Mist.

Only the so-called arrangement of "Adam", I can't see... What method did he use?

Klein thought sadly, until he noticed the expectant look in Angel's eyes, he cheered up and continued:

"In the experience of 'Forsaken Land of the Gods', next time Tarot Club, Mr. 'Sun' can share more information. He also encountered a similar altar in an abandoned town, which belonged to an organization established before Great Cataclysm, 'Rose Redemption'."

This organization name, which is no longer a secret in Tarot Club, made Angel immediately associate "Medici", "Ouroboros" and other King of Angel together.

"Medici was once a member of 'Rose Redemption', and this evil spirit buried under Backlund asked me to go to Bansy to look for clues, or to find Rose Redemption's clues to help it get out of trouble... Are the connections between Bansy and Trier, Sona Island and Forsaken Land of the Gods related to it?"

After one question was solved in his mind, three or four more popped up. Angel was about to continue asking when he heard Mr. Fool chuckle and say:

"It's time for you to leave."

She quickly lowered her head, expressed her gratitude to Fool for her help, and then left this majestic palace in the flash of deep Red Light light.

The remaining Klein breathed out gently, wiped the non-existent sweat on his forehead, and said to himself:

"If I don't send her away, I have a hunch that she will ask some questions that I don't even know... Sigh, there are not many opportunities to instruct her with such a tone.

"But regarding 'Ouroboros', Gray Fog alone may not be safe. I need to find an opportunity to ask the 'Snake of Fate' in Backlund, but the paper crane is almost broken. If I erase it a few times, Will Auceptin and I will lose contact...

"It looks like she's almost got the materials for Sequence 4's Potion. I've just been promoted to Sequence 5. It's so stressful..."

Mr. "Fool"'s words of joy and worry at times echoed in Gray Fog.

Spirit Body returned to the body, Angel quickly packed her things and left this strange, deserted village. She used the unfamiliar Dowsing Rod Method to find the direction where the crowd gathered, and walked there. Finally, before the sky got bright, she arrived at the port of Sona Island.

Using the "fake" ring to change her appearance, she used a false name to book a ferry ticket to Bayam for the same day, then found a hotel to stay temporarily, and had a hearty meal as soon as possible to get rid of her obsession with flesh and blood caused by the side effects of "Rose Necklace".

"If it was the evil 'Rose Bishop', I'm afraid he would have randomly killed people to get meat for food. Fortunately, I turned my desires into appetites, and I only need beef to satisfy them..."

She happily cut into pieces of the tender steak, swallowed it, and quickly relieved the side effects of Mystical Item.

This island, like most of the Berserk Sea's islands, mainly produces rich fruits and spices, so the food style is all about heavy flavors that stimulate the taste buds, which makes Angel, who has been hungry all night, a full meal.

After finishing the sumptuous meal, she returned to her room and sorted out her gains and experiences last night.

"I consumed part of the bullets and a set of clothes, and obtained a Main Materials from Sequence 4's 'Despair' Demoness. In this way, I only have 'Poison Needle of the Black-Striped Shadow Scorpion' left to configure Potion.

"Uninhabited Village seems to have been cleaned up by 'Mandated Punishers' not long ago. There are no relevant rumors spreading in this port. Perhaps we can only let 'Hanged Man' Alger inquire about the news inside Church of Storms...

"The newly obtained combination of symbols and textures is similar to Bansy Harbor, but there are many differences in details. If Bansy Harbor's runes can make 'Calamity' Charm, what about the ones here? Once Spirituality is fully recovered, you can try to make one.

"In 'Forsaken Land of the Gods', even the 'Hidden Holy Emblem' given by Arianna cannot continue to protect me. Before I left last night, I felt that the power of the holy symbol had become weak. I am afraid that if I stay for another hour, it will completely There is no way to protect me... Fortunately, after returning here, the power of the Holy Emblem can gradually recover at night, but the recovery speed of 'Anne's Blood' is much slower. I am afraid that its power was stimulated in the weird place of Forsaken Land of the Gods, causing permanent losses...

"After I completely digested 'Affliction' Potion, I have sufficient Spirituality to try to combine 'Calamity' Charm with the method of manufacturing 'Shattered Light Ray' to form a new special bullet idea, but the materials required can only be purchased by returning to Bayam."

Therefore, after arriving at Midway Island, immediately return to Bayam!

After making up her mind, Angel didn't delay any longer. She quickly bought two sets of casual clothes, packed new suitcases with items that were difficult to carry with her, and came to the pier, ready to board the first passenger ship to Midway Island.

"Have you heard? The 'Future' of 'Admiral of Stars' appeared in Nass, and used the magical Star Bridge to pick up the recently famous 'Mad Adventurer' Gehrman Sparrow. There might be an affair between them!"

Hearing a familiar name, Angel, who was queuing up to board the ship, pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

"Now the rumors are confirmed, this Gehrman has slept with every woman's Pirate Admiral!"

"Angelica Zaki, who has a high bounty, went to 'Future' with him, maybe..."

News from such a remote port lags behind. The news that Angel and Klein boarded "Future" four days ago seems to have only reached here today. However, the fact that "Black Tulip" was blown up in half has obviously not spread yet, which makes her quite disappointed.

However, her name finally appeared together with "Gehrman Sparrow", which still made Angel a little happy. She climbed up the gangway to Passenger Ship, and from behind her came increasingly outrageous rumors such as "Queen Mystic is the only one left" and "Maybe Pirate Admiral is a man", which made the smile on her face almost unbearable.

It wasn't until he passed the notice board erected on the deck of the passenger ship and saw the wanted warrant for Angelica Zaki with a bounty of 23,000 pounds that Angel snorted coldly, looked around, and took advantage of no one to notice him. He quickly tore off the wanted notice, pasted the 37,000-pound wanted notice "Admiral of Stars" Cattleya in the most conspicuous place, then crumpled his own into a ball and threw it into the sea from the side of the ship.
