"It seems that I will have my own messenger soon." Morien looked at the Star Worms in his hand and smiled.

All kinds of bugs produced by the battle just now are gathering towards Morien.

Among them, several Star Worms that split from Botis searched under his black cloak scattered on the ground and found a black pocket.

Together, they, several worms, held up the bag, which was much larger than themselves, in front of Morien.

"Oh, I remember this."

Morien said in surprise.

He reached out, took the bag, and weighed it in his hands.

It's very light, almost like a normal empty bag.

He opened it again and took a look at the pocket. There were various gemstones and a lot of Spirituality materials, some of which were common types, and some of which were rarer.

On the surface, it looks like it can only fit in the palm of an adult man, but in fact it is the size of a two-bedroom house and can hold a lot of things.

"Traveler's Bag" is an extraordinary item that probably belongs to the Grade 3 Sealed Artifact level. Its effect is storage space.

"It seems you have a family." Morien said to the insects.

In this way, you don't need to carry only a few bugs with you every time you go out.

Well, the "several" he has here is probably six figures.

"Come on, come in." Morien opened his bag, placed it on the ground, and pointed it at the other bugs.

The bugs surrounding Morien immediately gathered over, sorted by race, formed several lines, one after another, and lined up to get inside.

This is made by Botis using the ability of "Secrets Sorcerer". Essentially, the pocket is not an item, but an entrance and exit.

First, rely on the "space hiding" ability to isolate an area in Spirit World Distortion, and then use the characteristics of "Spirit World is overlapping and confusing with reality. As long as you have the correct coordinates, you can directly reach the destination" to open the door of that hidden area in this pocket.

The only troublesome thing is probably that the effect of Beyonder Ability will gradually deteriorate over time, so you need to occasionally use the ability of Secrets Sorcerer to stabilize it.

But it doesn't matter. With Star Worms here, they can sew the space inside Spirit World and the connection between Spirit World and the pocket. Morien doesn't need to worry about it at all.

Speaking of which, Morien remembers that Botis owns a Grade 0 Sealed Artifact, "Box of the Great Old Ones".

This is Sealed Artifact involving the power of "Great Old One", which is absolutely powerful, absolutely terrifying, and absolutely taboo.

With the current strength of Morien, it is completely unable to compete with it.

However, it seems that Botis is not brought with me.

It seems that it was because the negative effects were a bit large, and because I thought this trip was just a small business trip, I didn't take Sealed Artifact with me.

That's right, when Mr. Z passed the information, it should have included some information about Morien, which should also include information about Morien fighting back and forth with a Sequence 5, and even almost dying several times.

Botis didn't even think about the aspect of "the opponent is actually a summoner but he insists on boxing with someone".

No matter how bellicose a person is, he won't be like this, right?

Therefore Grade 0 Sealed Artifact Box of the Great Old Ones is not carried.

Morien It's a little pity.

But then I thought about it, if Box of the Great Old Ones was present, I probably wouldn't be able to keep Botis, and might even be counterattacked.

Botis is likely to fight back before dying, letting him and himself perish together.

Looking at it this way, it's not a pity.

It's better to just do it.

Morien Hold your pocket and wait patiently.

When the last bug got into his pocket, he tied the opening of the pocket and stood up.

Cracks began to appear on the starry sky below the feet and on the surface of the Upside-Down Sea above the head.

Click.

Bang.

The realm was shattered, and Morien, Klein and Leonard returned to the real world.

The space originally cut by Botis returned to normal with the death of Botis.

"Hmph----"Morien suddenly hummed softly.

Domain Expansion consumes Cursed Energy and physical strength very much. Although Cursed Energy can be replenished with almost Limitless of Path Power, he is still really tired.

Moreover, the most important point is that although he can still mobilize Path Power, it is temporarily difficult to use the ability of "Propagation".

This is Technique Burnout.

After Domain Expansion, the Cursed Technique originally imprinted in the body will be temporarily fused and cannot be used.

The field of Morien is even more special.

The foundation on which he built his field is "Propagation".

Although this gives him a stronger field, it is not without cost.

During Technique Burnout, in addition to "Resonance Curse Technique", his fate application also caused a certain degree of fuse.

All abilities such as "Split and Alter Self", "Insect Transformation", and "Accelerate Cell Division for Rapid Repair" cannot be used.

No matter the means of attack, defense or resilience will be greatly reduced.

If Botis could break through Morien's domain shell and let Morien enter Technique Burnout, Morien, who was left with only pure boxing skills, Monsterification and Glintstone Sorcery, would probably have to figure out how to escape.

Although he can also try to enter the Synchronization Space refresh state, Mysteries World is not like Jujutsu World. The time flow rate is slow enough, and you can see the fixed refresh of Star Rail Morien almost every time you enter.

The flow rate of Mysteries World is actually not much different from that of Honkai: Star Rail World, so it is very likely that Morien enters Synchronization Space, but Synchronization Space is empty and cannot perform synchronous refresh status.

However, the information gap is still too fatal.

Botis never thought that something like a domain would cause the user Technique Burnout.

After he tried to break the domain from the inside and failed, he focused more on Morien, not knowing that the shell of the domain was actually quite fragile.

He did not expect that if he compressed the small space he created, the fragile shell of the domain would shatter within a few seconds.

This is something that even Megumi Fushiguro can smash with bare hands.

This is one of the reasons why Morien brought Klein and Leonard into the field together.

Although showing off is indeed very important, another reason is to prevent the two of them from accidentally firing a shot when they try to break through the space cutting of Botis, causing the bullet that bounces back to hit the outer shell of the field.

If you lose at the hands of your own people, it will be difficult.

Moreover, in fact, entering Synchronization Space is not something you just want to do.

After a period of experiments, Morien people discovered that every time they enter Synchronization Space, there will be a short "window period".

Morien people simply copied the name of "Technique Burnout" and called it "Synchronization Burnout".

Among them, the time of Synchronization Burnout is inconsistent and seems to be related to different worlds.

Among them, Synchronization Burnout of Jujutsu World has the shortest time, only about half an hour, and One-Punch World is slightly longer, more than an hour.

Then came Elden Ring World, which lasted for half a day.

Finally, there are Honkai: Star Rail World and Mysteries World. The circuit breaker period for these two worlds is about one day.

After using this kind of trump card once, it will be more difficult to deal with emergencies again.

"Did I let you go?" He suddenly turned around and looked at Leonard and Klein who were about to sneak away.

Mainly Leonard.

Klein actually doesn't have much opinion on whether to leave or not.

He was so strong that it was too late for him to be happy.

But Leonard doesn't know.

In the eyes of Leonard, Morien is just a cult member.

The fight with Aurora Order is totally about taking advantage of others.

"Why are you so afraid of me? Have I done anything to you?" Morien tied his pockets and looked at Leonard.

Leonard's mind started spinning rapidly.

"Well----I just saw----uh----Mr. Tower----the powerful figure."

"We are extremely sighing in our hearts, well----we are planning to help you promote the great names of----Tarot Club" and----uh----Mr. Fool"."

He forced a smile.

Morien walked up to Leonard and patted him on the shoulder.

"Well, the young man has a bright future." He said with admiration.

"I'm going to see our Tarot Club report in the newspaper tomorrow morning, do you understand?"

Leonard nodded immediately.

"Yeah, yeah, no problem, no problem."

He raised his head slightly and glanced at the already darkened Sky Manipulation, and said decisively.

"I will go to the newspaper office soon, use my identity as a police officer, and ask them to put Tarot Club on tomorrow's headlines."

"Hang it for at least a week." Morien raised a finger.

"Yeah, yeah, at least a week." Leonard immediately nodded crazily.

Demigod ah----

The one in front of you is at least Demigod----

The strong man who can kill a Demigod so easily can only be another Demigod.

He must not die here, he must take this Tarot Club information back.

This is no longer something they Tingen City can solve.

"Good! You're very energetic!" Morien patted Leonard in admiration, "I'm very optimistic about you."

"It should, it should."

"Then, in order to give you a reward." Morien said with a smile, "Now recite my Lord's Honorific Name."

"Okay, okay----huh?" Leonard's nodding movement suddenly stopped.

Leonard immediately showed an expression that was uglier than eating shit.

"This----this is not good----"

"I shouldn't be qualified to chant His name----"

"This is your reward," Morien looked at Leonard with encouraging eyes, "So don't feel embarrassed."

Leonard I feel like my face must be covered in sweat now.

With Morien like this, he was already certain that the "Mr. Fool" that the other party believed in was 100% real.

He heard it. Just now Morien directly called True Creator's Honorific Name.

Although Leonard does not know who "Grisha" is, it is not difficult to guess based on the context.

This means that Morien has a high probability of having the protection of another true god.

It's probably "Mr. Fool".

A true god who can compete with True Creator, a truly great existence!

Now, if you recite the Honorific Name of an evil god without any protection, it means that you are putting your life in the hands of the other party.

The opponent can crush him to death at any time, and it won't be much more difficult than crushing an ant.

"Here, read this."

Morien read it again, "Fool who does not belong to this era, the mysterious master of Above the Gray Fog, King of Yellow and Black who is in charge of good luck."

Leonard still wanted to get away with it, so he used Loenese to say, "It doesn't belong to----"

"Use Ancient Hermes." Morien emphasized.

"Okay." Leonard accepted his fate.

"Fool who does not belong to this era, the mysterious master of Above the Gray Fog, and King of Yellow and Black who is in charge of good luck."

He repeated it with Ancient Hermes.

"Very good," Morien put down his hand, "Work hard and Tarot Club may have a place for you in the future."

"Thank you." Leonard showed a smile that was uglier than crying.

Morien looked at Klein again.

"And you, read it again too."

Klein was much more relaxed in comparison, he pointed at himself.

"Should I read it too?

"Yes."

"Very good," Morien nodded with an elusive expression and said to Leonard, "I allow you to report things about me to Evernight Goddess, but it is only for me. For others, you should know what should be said and what should not be said."

"Remember," Morien glanced at Klein and said to Leonard, "The great Mr. Fool will be watching you."

As Mr. Z and Botis died successively, the spirit body was eaten by Swarm of Morien, and Morien also discovered some problems.

This time Domain Expansion actually has a bit of moisture.

The first is Decree of Mr. Z, "The reality here is weakened, Spirit World is strengthened".

Whether Spirit World is enhanced or not has no effect on Morien, the main thing is "realistic weakening".

This allows him to better cover the "Innate Domain" in his heart onto the "reality".

The second is the behavior of Mr. Z cutting space.

Mr. Z cut off this space. The main purpose is to ensure that the three people present will not escape, and also to avoid too much fighting noise to attract the attention of local Nighthawks, Mandated Punishers and Machinery Hivemind.

And this is considered cheap Morien.

Just like Megumi Fushiguro's incomplete domain can only be used with the help of caves, gymnasiums, or "squeezing" from other domains, Morien, who expanded the domain for the first time, was also unskilled and only successfully opened the domain under the squeeze of this space.

Morien doesn't believe in coincidences, especially in a world where "destiny" does exist.

He glanced at the two Nighthawks present and smiled.

If the cause of Botis's death is that he failed to run away the first time he saw him, it would be better to say that he was just too "unlucky".

Not only did he help Morien provide the conditions to expand the field, but he also lost the opportunity to leave the field several times because of Mr. Z.

What he said is right, a simple field cannot trap him.

If there was no Mr. Z, or if he had solved Mr. Z directly from the beginning, he would have left the field long ago.

After that, he was able to solve Morien of Technique Burnout very easily.

Even the "Box of the Great Old Ones" that he often carried was coincidentally not on him this time.

Although the reasons are sufficient and convincing enough.

But so many coincidences combined are no longer coincidences.

He is really unlucky.

And who can best represent "bad luck" in this world----

Finally, Morien's eyes were fixed on Leonard.

It seems that even if I stopped mid-reading, "Night Express" was still typed.

"Queen of Misfortune and Fear" heard his Incantation.

Then, the outcome of this battle has already explained the goddess's attitude.

If Morien lets the two of them run away, it means that the goddess is giving him a warning.

If Morien kills one person and lets another go, it means that the goddess's attitude towards him is "turn a blind eye".

And now, Morien has eliminated Botis and Mr. Z, which means that the goddess has shown kindness to him.

The general meaning should be. "Stop carrying out your messy experiments. We don't care about killing cultists, but don't spread the name Great Old One anymore."

That's probably it.

"You----don't stop us from reporting to Evernight Goddess?" Leonard was stunned for a moment.

What does this mean?

Morien looked at Leonard with an expression like he was looking at an idiot.

"I just praised you for being smart."

Leonard immediately fell into brainstorming.

You can report to the goddess.

Why?

There are only two possibilities.

First, he doesn't take the goddess seriously at all. Judging from the fact that he dares to call True Creator True Name, it doesn't seem impossible.

But there is another possibility.

Combined with his friendly attitude towards himself and Klein, Leonard feels that the second possibility is more likely.

That is, "Mr. Fool" is likely to be one of the allies of Evernight Goddess. It may be some resurrected ancient existence that was an ally with the goddess in ancient times, or it may simply be the incarnation of a certain righteous god.

Then, the requirements of Morien are very particular.

Such an important thing fell on my head, making me a witness to history.

I am indeed the protagonist of the era!

"Don't worry, just keep it with me." Leonard patted his chest, indicating that he would take all Morien's requests to heart.

The gears of the times have begun to turn, and the Leonard of history is rolling forward.
