According to the context, this question was obviously directed at Angel, so Klein just pursed his lips and looked secretly at her side, who was also in a state of shock.

But the latter did not answer immediately. Instead, he stared closely at the mirror full of silver-white Loenese. For the first time, he felt the true strength of this Sealed Artifact, which was once introduced by Ikanser, the butler of Machinery Hivemind, as "asking questions that are embarrassing and difficult to answer."

Although she has become a real Angel, there is no need to be afraid of Sealed Artifact, whose punishment is no more severe than Demigod and cannot threaten her at all, but Angel still answered honestly after careful consideration:

"We originally planned to hold the wedding in October. On the one hand, we would make the two identities of 'Christine Teresa' and 'Dwayne Dantès' more complete, and on the other hand..."

She paused, and then continued:

"Unfortunately, the successive appearances of Amon and Zarathus, the sudden outbreak of war and the revelation of George III's intentions have forced us to shelve this plan. As for what will happen next... I think we have to wait until the war is over."

As her answer ended, Arrodes's questions instantly melted like candles under high temperature, accumulating at the bottom of the half-length mirror, and even some overflowing on the frame, looking like tears.

Then, they Reassembly are another line of words:

"Excellent answer... I'm looking forward to that day."

It seemed very disappointed... Angel muttered, knowing that according to the principle of reciprocity, it was his turn to ask questions.

Considering the difficulties Klein was facing at this time, she thought for a moment and then asked:

"Where are the main body of Amon and Zarathus currently?

"I mean Little Zarathus."

Worried about Arrodes's misunderstanding, Angel added the location of a certain tomb.

All the silver text on the mirror disappeared, and it no longer reflected the outside scene. Instead, it became Pure Black like silence. It was not until ten seconds later that a picture gradually appeared.

Through the gray-white fog that is difficult to see through, it barely outlines translucent and slippery tentacles, fragmented landscapes with different themes, and the indescribable-looking Vortex in the center composed of transparent worms.

After staying for a few seconds, the picture changed. Endless darkness poured out from all sides, covering up the worm Vortex and the tentacles that moved different scenery, turning the mirror into Pure Black again.

Suddenly, a bolt of lightning flashed across the dark sky, illuminating the ravaged and uneven ground.

After the picture faded away, a few lines of silver-white text appeared that seemed to be trembling:

"This is the location of Zarathus and Amon. I dare not locate them directly, as this may expose our location."

"That's enough, thank you, Arrodes," Angel nodded, and then looked at Klein, "The place where Amon is looks like Forsaken Land of the Gods, and the other picture is what you called 'History Void'?"

"Yes, this means that the body of Zarathus is not wandering around the outside world at will, but is hiding in History Void, making it difficult to locate and find. Those who are active outside should be his Marionette."

This is very similar to the mode where I hide in Mirror World and control the avatar to move outside... But Marionette has more diverse abilities and can change into different shapes at will, even becoming a flying bird or a swimming fish. It is worthy of being the follow-up to "Trick Sorcerer" Sequence... Angel thought about it and found that this "set" composed of Seer, Marauder and Apprentice and Pathway is simply weird, changeable and flexible, and other Pathway can't even come close to it.

Moreover, one of them can use their clones to wander around, and the other Marionette is elusive. They always like to appear after they have established an advantage and are free of worries, which is a headache.

After suppressing some frustration, Angel looked at Klein and motioned for him to continue asking questions - because of Arrodes's previous generous gift, he still had another chance to ask questions.

The latter had a thoughtful expression on his face after seeing the pictures of Amon and Zarathus, and now he said:

"My question is, are there any missing formulas for Sequence 2 Beyonder Characteristic and Potion for 'Marauder' and 'Apprentice'?"

This...Angel was startled, and immediately understood Klein's intention, and looked at the half-length mirror expectantly.

And Arrodes did not delay, and immediately condensed an answer:

"Sequence 2 of Marauder, Beyonder Characteristic of 'fate Trojan Horse' have almost all been attributed to the main body of Amon and Pales Zoroaster, The former split it to ensure the level and strength of his clone, and can aggregate Reassembly into the real Sequence 2 at any time. Unless you can capture and transform those split characteristics in batches, it is not recommended to move in this direction.

"In addition, the only copy of 'fate Trojan Horse' that has not been absorbed is missing in the hands of the Tudor Empire Jacob Family of Fourth Epoch. It may be hidden by them in a secret place as a family treasure, but I cannot find out the specific location.

"For its formula, you can ask Pales Zoroaster directly.

"The Sequence 2 and 'Planeswalker' of Apprentice no longer have living Beyonder. Part of their Beyonder Characteristic formed Sealed Artifact, and part is still controlled by the 'Gate' who was exiled when Fourth Epoch was born... Abraham Family has its formula and two corresponding powerful Sealed Artifact, and Aurora Order also has one. In addition, the 'Planeswalker' Beyonder Characteristic that makes up 'Ghost Empire', I do not recommend that you use it."

"Why?"

Just after watching the end, Klein frowned and asked.

"I dare not say, this will inevitably cause you harm," Klein's answer was not silver-white words, but crimson moon-like strokes that made people feel uneasy, "But Mistress will not."

This pointed answer immediately made Angel think of one word:

"Great Old One".

Only answers involving this person, or the source of pollution such as "Starry Sky", will put Klein who has not yet reached Sequence 2 in danger, but he will not.

Fortunately, Arrodes is alive and friendly to us, Sealed Artifact. If it were a general "question and answer machine" type of dead thing, I'm afraid it would have naturally revealed the answer, causing the questioner to suffer unknowingly. It's so polluted... Angel recalled in his mind the examples in the church's internal data of those who were accidentally killed by various Sealed Artifact, or who were polluted simply by divination of the enemy's whereabouts, and couldn't help but sigh.

Klein obviously understood the risks involved and did not continue to ask, but waited for this additional question to be asked in return.

But Arrodes just erased the words just now and "said" respectfully:

"Two masters, Machinery Hivemind that annoying butler is coming to see me again. Can I leave first?"

"Okay." Klein nodded.

After Arrodes turned into a simple drawing of a waving little man and disappeared into the depths of the mirror, he turned to look at Angel and asked doubtfully:

"I really can't know? Even if it's a circumstantial answer or a metaphor?"

Angel's mind came to mind when he used the metaphor of "robber" and "crumbling house" in front of Mirror Person, but was immediately disturbed by the body of a certain Manipulator whose body was full of ulcers and died in the shape of a "dragon". Intimidation gave up on this dangerous transgression and replied:

"It's best not to, it's too dangerous. Hvin Rambis is an example."

So the danger comes from the "starry sky" Arianna said... Klein nodded, forming a concept in his heart that was slightly different from the "starry sky" in Angel's mind, but equally dangerous, and gave up pursuing this answer, reminding:

"Then I'll leave the handling of this matter in 'Dream City' to you... I didn't expect that these Beyonder Characteristic originating from Fourth Epoch Trensoest Empire actually had problems. Didn't 'Night Emperor' discover it at the time?"

"Maybe the problem started after 'Ghost Empire' was established, but the characteristics of 'Catastrophe' Demoness actually allowed me to be promoted smoothly. What's the difference between it and 'Planeswalker'? One has True God on it, and the other doesn't?"

Angel also murmured in confusion, and then thought of another question:

"You just asked about the Sequence 2 characteristics of Marauder and Apprentice. Are you planning to promote them to the adjacent Sequence instead of 'Miracle Invoker'?"

"Yes, after all, Zarathus is eyeing him, and the characteristics of 'Miracle Invoker' are either inside other churches, or in the hands of dangerous entities, or located in Forsaken Land of the Gods... I am considering transferring to Adjacent Pathways, and first be promoted to Angel so that I can have basic means of self-protection."

Klein replied, sitting back on the chair a little tiredly, looking very worried.

"Of course, Marauder Pathway also faces similar problems. Amon occupies the top of the current Pathway and is collecting scattered Beyonder Characteristic, while Pales Zoroaster itself cannot be saved, and it is impossible to give me a piece of Sequence 2. There is no clue about the treasure of the Jacob Family. It is also difficult to find this Pathway.

"The only way out seems to be Apprentice, although this will also face the attention of Mr. 'Gate', and this Pathway seems to be easily contaminated, so that there is no High Sequence at all Beyonder exists, but at least it is safer than Marauder... Next time Tarot Club, I will entrust 'Magician' Miss to test the attitude of the Abraham Family."

Angel also thought of Dorian Gray Abraham who entrusted her to deal with the family traitors, and added:

"If that doesn't work, help them get rid of the traitor 'Mystic Saint' who joined Aurora Order, retrieve the Sealed Artifact lost by Abraham, and exchange it for a certain 'Planeswalker' Sealed Artifact and the corresponding formula..."

She suddenly thought of the name of the Sealed Artifact, "Box of the Great Old Ones".

Now that we understand the threats of "Great Old One" and "Outer Deity", this name seems a bit intriguing.

It is said that it comes from a certain Abraham Family Angel who died suddenly after exploring the stars and traveling in the universe. Could it be that it was contaminated by some kind of Outer Deity...

Because he was worried that Klein would be watched by Outer Deity, Angel did not dare to discuss related topics with him at all, so he had to put his mind on another matter:

Like Klein, Pathway with True God at the top also faces the problem of "no way out"!
