An anxious Termiboros

What a coincidence? Lumian doesn't think this is a coincidence at all.

In the vast and layered Underground Trier, meeting others by chance cannot be called abnormal. Such things are not many, but they are by no means rare. After all, Quarry Police, Smuggler, Cave Adventurer, Ore Researcher, wandering college students, Concealment organization members, wanted criminals, Gang are active here. Thug, Evil God believers and Anti-Government Armed Forces, but in such a large dark world, the probability of knowing the people you meet is almost zero.

This is not like the time when Jenna was rescued, Lumian tracked Past by following the scent.

Lumian's spirit tensed up instantly. He looked at Monet wearing Monocle and forced a smile, "Yes, what a coincidence."

With one hand in his pocket, he agreed while pretending to put away the Candle and materials on the stone. He wanted to make the other party believe that he had completed Ritual and could leave at any time. There was no value worth destroying or coveting.

Monet pinched the Monocle inside Eye Sockets of his right eye, smiled and waved, "See you on the ground."

After saying that, he turned around and left the entrance of Mine, and the sound of footsteps gradually faded away.

This made Lumian a little stunned.

Leaving now?

Is it really a chance encounter?

Judging from his appearance, he is very familiar with Underground Trier. He has been here many times. He should be very clear that in such a dark and silent place, if he rushes into a place with people and light, it is easy to irritate the other party and cause unnecessary conflicts...

Even if he is confused about the appearance of a stranger Quarry Cavern on his route, he should choose to lurk close and observe in secret instead of "coming to the door" so nonchalantly...

Does he have enough confidence in his own strength?

It can't be just to scare me!

Lumian's thoughts flashed and he withdrew his gaze from the entrance of Quarry Cavern and turned to Candle and the materials placed on the stone.

He hesitated whether to continue praying for Ritual from Gift.

At this time, the layered voice of Termiboros sounded in his ears:

"You'd better find another place."

Uh...Lumian was horrified, and inexplicably felt a hint of anxiety and worry in Termiboros's tone.

It was very unobvious, and it seemed like there was nothing there, which made Lumian wonder if he had made a misjudgment.

This was the first time he noticed that Angel, Fate, had emotional fluctuations.

Before, no matter how much he mocked and Provocation, Termiboros would remain silent at best and not answer.

And things that can make a Angel anxious and worried are definitely not simple!

While his heart beat faster involuntarily, Lumian blurted out. "That person just now was dangerous?"

"He is not dangerous per se, but he gives me a dangerous feeling." Termiboros really answered.

This further confirms Lumian's guess:

This Angel noticed certain problems from Destiny, problems that could threaten Him!

"Why does it make you feel in danger despite not being strong enough? What on earth does that person want to do?" Lumian asked further.

Termiboros's tone returned to normal, and he said in a rich voice, "I am sealed, and I can only sense the outside world through you, so I cannot get enough information.

"If you want to know the answers to these two questions, you must first find a way to weaken the seal."

Do you think I look like a fool? I even wonder if your anxiety and worry just now were faked to create pressure and intimidate me... However, with Termiboros's previous performance, even if there is no progress, the true purpose should not be exposed so quickly... Monet His appearance is indeed too coincidental, and his behavior is unspeakably weird. You should avoid it. You would rather believe that he is very dangerous than be careless...Lumian quickly packed up the items on the stone, carried Carbide Lamp, and left this place Quarry Cavern.

Relying on the partial map of Underground Trier that he had memorized from Gardner·Martin, he went around to a place closer to Memorial Hall District, then went a few meters deeper into Underground, and found another dead and dark Quarry Cavern, doing counter-tracking at least three times along the way.

Huh... After Lumian looked around, he breathed a sigh of relief, put down Carbide Lamp, and placed the Candle and materials used by Ritual on a relatively flat stone half a meter high.

Suddenly, he felt something move in the darkness at the edge of Quarry.

Hiss...Lumian's heart lifted again, he carefully picked up Carbide Lamp, and cast the light on that place.

A yellowish light with a touch of blue shined out, and a black Rat, half of its body blocked by gravel, came into Lumian's eyes.

The Rat did not evade hastily because of the light, but stood there quietly. After a few seconds, he slowly turned around and drilled into the small hole at the bottom of the rock wall.

For some reason, Lumian always feels that the right eye of Rat is larger than the left eye.

Holding Carbide Lamp, he unconsciously became tense again. His body was ready to go and he asked in a low voice, "Termiboros, is there a problem here?"

Termiboros's voice echoed in Lumian's body, with great momentum:

"You'd better pray to That One'The Fool' immediately, pray for Protection of Angel, and then move to another place."

Is this problem so serious? Lumian's pupils suddenly dilated, he took out another Candle, and quickly arranged Altar.

He is not worried that Termiboros is taking the opportunity to induce him to make Error's choice. After all, praying to Mr. "The Fool" is his last resort and is beneficial to him.

From another perspective, the fact that Angel of Fate can be forced to seek Protection of "The Fool" is indirect, but it is enough to show that the current situation is very wrong. Once it breaks out, the danger will be unimaginable!

Under the extreme state, Lumian only took more than ten seconds to place Candle, sanctify Dagger, and create a "Spirit Wall" that could only surround himself and Altar.

Then, he lit the three Candle in order from gods to people, from left to right, and dripped in essential oil and Hydrosol.

In the misty light and thin mist, Lumian exhaled and said solemnly, "The Fool who does not belong to this era, Above the Gray Fog's mysterious Ruler, King of Yellow and Black who is in charge of good luck.

"M. hetushu•com. comI pray to you;

"Please provide Protection..."

As Ritual advanced, Lumian fell into the thin Gray Fog, the flesh and blood Itching, and the slowness of thinking. Once again, he saw Twelve-Winged Angel, which was purely composed of light, descending from infinite heights and embracing him.

As the pair of wings of light closed and disappeared, Lumian suddenly regained consciousness. While checking his own condition, he packed up the items in Altar and quickly left the place Mine.

He walked towards Underground, which was close to Market District, and started counter-tracking again out of habit.

Nearly twenty minutes later, Lumian found another Quarry Cavern that was both hidden and relatively safe based on the map.

He turned in, checked it over, and asked in a low voice, "Termiboros, is there something wrong here?"

"Not yet." Termiboros answered.

Lumian closed his eyes and relaxed a lot.

He immediately thought about a question:

Should Ritual return to the ground, wait for a while for the abnormality to disappear, and then find another hiding place to pray for Gift, or should Protection, Protection, take advantage of Mr. "The Fool" Angel's presence, seize the opportunity to temporarily get rid of the abnormality, and quickly be promoted to "Contracted One"?

According to Lumian's behavior, he is willing to take a risk, and it will be the same next time anyway. After all, he cannot confirm whether the abnormality has really disappeared, and needs to seek High-Ranking Being's opinion.

In this case, it's better to ask now!

Lumian arranged Altar again. This time, he did not seek Protection, nor did he pray for Gift. Instead, he summoned Messenger of "Magician" Lady.

"Doll" Messenger, wearing a light Golden skirt, quickly appeared on the dim blue candlelight.

It looked at Lumian and said unhappily, "This is not a good place."

After speaking, it took away the letter Lumian had just written quickly.

The above briefly mentioned the performance of Monet and the reaction of Termiboros, and asked myself whether I can hold Ritual to pray for Gift now.

In this matter, Lumian played a little trick. He just asked "yes" or "no", and did not directly ask "Magician" Lady to provide protection.

--The cost of asking a Half-God to take action is too expensive. Lumian feels that he definitely cannot afford it now, so it is better to attract her attention by asking.

Of course, if there is really no other way, he will give it a try. It is better to be in debt than to die. There will be a day when the debt will be paid off gradually, or the person has passed away and there is no need to pay back.

This is not a good place... Do you mean this Quarry Cavern, or the whole Underground Trier? Lumian thought about what Messenger just said.

Not long after, "Doll" Messenger brought a reply:

"This is a big problem."

"Magician" Lady's first sentence made Lumian's eyelids jump.

"Of course, the problem has not reached that serious level, at least I have not yet discovered that the largest That One has returned to this world.

"What needs to be determined now is his true purpose. Judging from Termiboros's reaction, I suspect it is aimed at him, but That One is very good at Concealment's own purpose. This may be just an illusion deliberately created to mislead us or someone else.

"There should be no abnormalities with Future for a while now. After you adjust the state, you can hold Ritual to pray for Gift."

He? Is that Angel? The That One who showed malice through Monet is Angel? Lumian couldn't help but hissed, and a strong feeling of fear emerged in his heart.

This also reminded him of the specialness of "Different from the Rest" Dance Hall, and he suspected that if he really wanted to collect debts, he might face a large number of Angel Attendant!

See "Magician". Lady's judgment on the current situation is consistent with Termiboros. Lumian calms down and changes Altar.

Soon, he stared at the two ash White Candles that represented Fate's power and himself respectively. Mixed with the complex smell of Gray Ambergris Perfume, he took a step back and recited in a deep voice. "Power of Fate!"

"You are Past, now, and also Future;

"You are the cause, the result, and the process."
