After a brief moment of confusion, Audrey quickly understood what the " The Sun " was saying:
He said that Mr. The Fool sent His Angel to Purification the emanation of Amon!
Angel!
Mr. The Fool sent an Angel!
Mr. The Fool really does have Angel as his servants!
Each Angel possesses at least Sequence 2 strength...
Although this was expected and I had anticipated it, it was still exciting because it had finally been confirmed!
Only gods can command Angel!
Audrey's eyes sparkled with excitement as she couldn't help but imagine what Mr. The Fool's Angel looked like.
I don't know when, but I was fortunate enough to meet her... Her gaze toward the head of the bronze table was full of admiration and fervor.
At the same time, her Spirit Intuition told her that even the usually gloomy Mr. World had sat up straight in shock, which made her feel inexplicably smug.
" The Magician " Fors recalled the incident from before. She had only asked Mr. " The Fool " to help interfere with the Divination, but instead she saw a twelve-winged Great Angel descend and cover her spirit with his wings.
Indeed, it was Angel... Great Angel with jet-black wings and twelve pairs of feathers... And this was indeed Mr. The Fool's usual practice, casually dispatching an Angel to help the gathering members out of danger... Fors suddenly dared not look up at the gentleman sitting leisurely at the head of the bronze table.
Although she is only Sequence 9 and has not received a complete occult education, she has been involved in various extraordinary circles for three years, and certain things will reach her ears even without her deliberately inquiring.
This contains a very important point:
Do not look directly at God.
Fors hadn't had a strong impression of this statement in the past, but at this moment she suddenly felt that it was the truth, a truth summarized from countless lessons learned through blood and tears.
" Angel?" Sure enough, there was Angel beside Mr. The Fool! The Hanged Man was both terrified and inexplicably excited, to the point that his body trembled slightly.
Previously, telling the Venerable One that responding to prayers and rituals indirectly indicated that Mr. The Fool was equivalent to a deity, but this still lacked some direct evidence. Now, however, Angel has appeared! His very existence is enough to explain many things! Most importantly, the Angel represents the most direct deterrence! Mr. The Fool is not without influence in the real world... Even without the help of His Blessed, He can still radiate His majesty over a certain area... Alger thought of many things in an instant, feeling both a cold sweat for his previous shallowness and a sense of bright future.
Immediately afterwards, he began to ponder the details in " the Sun's " words:
Instead of directly sending Angel, Mr. The Fool first taught the Sun a ritual. Only through that ritual did He send Angel to Purification Amon's avatar. It was a long and roundabout process...
Does this mean that Mr. The Fool must overcome many obstacles to influence the real world? This aligns with my previous assessment that He is in a sealed and restrained state... But perhaps there's something special about the " Forsaken Land of the Gods "?
Mr. The Fool hadn't behaved this way before, was it because he had broken free a little? He was gradually breaking free...
Klein, seated in the " The Fool's " position, slowly looked around and clearly sensed Miss " Justice's" respect and fervor, as well as Mr. " The Hanged Man's" fear and excitement.
Didn't they always treat me like a god? Why are they behaving this way when they hear about Angel? It seems that indirect proof is never as effective as direct deterrence... If any new members question me in the future, I'll prepare in advance, let "The World" jump out and spout nonsense, then I'll casually point and kill him, making an example of him... Once things calm down, I'll create a new "World"... Klein's thoughts gradually drifted away.
" The Sun " Derrick couldn't quite understand the reactions of Mr. " The Hanged Man " and Ms. " Justice." In his view, wasn't it normal for a god, a great being, to be served by Angel?
He waited a few seconds before saying:
"After Amon's clone was Purification, I coughed up a small worm, exactly the same as the one in the dungeon before. Do you know what it is?"
With the help of " The Fool " Klein, " The Sun " successfully materialized a translucent worm with twelve transparent rings on it.
" Justice " Audrey and " Magician " Fors looked over curiously, then shook their heads, indicating that they had never seen or heard of such a small insect.
Twelve rings... Similar symbols in the Book of Secrets are all related to time... The Amon Family are descendants of the Ancient The Sun God, and in ancient times, people believed that the Sun and time were connected... This is a plausible explanation, corroborated from two perspectives... However, why is the current " Eternal Blazing Sun " merely an indestructible light, an embodiment of order, God of Contracts, and Guardian of Commerce, yet no longer involved in the realm of time...? To maintain his image as the " The Fool," Klein didn't rush to answer.
He had a smile on his face, and his gaze was gentle.
" The Hanged Man," Alger pondered for a moment and said:
"It should be the vessel through which Amon creates his clones."
"In mythology, there is a worm that resembles this creature in appearance, both having twelve transparent rings, called the ' Worm of Time.' However, no one has ever seen the ' Worm of Time,' and many suspect that it is actually the name of a Sequence Potion."
" The Worm of Time "... It's pretty close to my guess... Although this is just a myth circulating among the Beyonder at the middle and higher levels within certain churches, the information itself is still quite valuable. Did the " The Hanged Man " tell everyone this because he had already received a reward and learned a lot of important information from the little " The Sun "? Klein listened with a mix of emotion and amusement.
" The Worm of Time... the vessel through which Amon creates his clones..." The Sun Derrick to himself, seemingly having resolved many of his doubts.
He asked curiously:
"What can it be used for? I mean, the dead one."
"I don't know." Under the " The Sun's " trusting and respectful gaze, " The Hanged Man " Alger suddenly felt a little ashamed.
At this moment, the " The Fool," seated at the head of the long bronze table, spoke calmly:
"The main material for certain rituals."
This is Klein's deduction based on the contents of " The Book of Secrets ".
However, he wasn't worried at all about being wrong, because it was almost impossible to disprove.
"The fact that you haven't found the ritual that requires the ' Worm of Time ' only shows that you're not knowledgeable enough!" Klein added casually to himself.
Certain rituals... " Justice " Audrey and the others instantly had a flurry of thoughts.
"Thank you, great ' The Fool ' Mr." " The Sun " Derrick rose slightly and bowed, then steered the conversation toward the matter concerning the existence of City of Silver, "The exploration team is back. I mean the exploration team led by Elder ' Shepherd ' Lovia. They completed their exploration of the half-destroyed temple of the ' Fallen Creator ' and returned to City of Silver. And I've noticed that the personalities of several team members I know have changed somewhat."
"They have been corrupted by the ' True Creator '," Alger, the " The Hanged Man," stated with unwavering certainty.
" The True Creator?" Audrey couldn't Justice but glance at the head of the bronze table.
She remembered very clearly that the " True Creator " had had his descent thwarted by the Blessed of Mr. The Fool, and that she had previously guessed that the leader of her family's Tarot Club was going to be the "Slayer of Evil Gods."
"Really?" Derrick asked, seemingly unwilling to believe it.
The Hanged Man said in a completely calm tone:
Please describe their changes in detail.
"It feels like the same person, but he's very different from before. His optimism has turned into melancholy, and his bright smile has been reduced to a polite one..." " The Sun " Derrick recounted all the anomalies he had noticed, including the sudden improvement in Elder " Shepherd " Lovia's condition.
" The Hanged Man," Alger said thoughtfully:
"The situation may be more serious than you think; contamination is the best-case scenario."
"If they have already genuinely come to believe in the truth, uh, the ' Fallen Creator,' then that's the real problem, and they're beyond saving."
"No matter what, their personalities, thoughts, and opinions will Distortion, turning them into latent Lunatic. You can start from this point and let the other members of the ' Council of Six ' notice something is wrong."
"I've already reported it, but the 'Chief' doesn't seem to trust me too much," Derrick said in a low voice, sounding slightly aggrieved.
" The Magician " Fors couldn't help but sigh:
"That's because your 'chief' suspects you're possessed by Amon and are plotting something detrimental to City of Silver."
"Then what should I do? Even if I tell them that Derrick ' Fallen Creator ' exists, won't they believe me?" The Sun asked anxiously.
The " The Hanged Man " hesitated for two seconds before saying:
"Actually, your 'Chief' should have started paying attention to the ' Shepherd ' and the members of that exploration team by now. The fact that your City of Silver has survived until now shows that the higher-ups still have a basic level of vigilance and won't let any possible threat slip by. The only problem is that their level of attention is definitely not high enough, perhaps even less than their concern for you and Amon."
Before " the Sun " could speak, he carefully added:
"Perhaps we can use this to clear your name... Find an opportunity to make a member of one of the exploration teams exhibit the most extreme abnormality and have a conflict with him. This way, the other members of the ' Council of Six ' will notice something is wrong and increase their attention."
"At the same time, you hand over what appears to be the ' Worm of Time,' and say that during the conflict, you suddenly became disoriented and didn't know what was happening. You only vaguely heard someone shouting ' True Creator,' and when you came to your senses, you coughed up the worm."
"Many methods and abilities are not allowed when it comes to evil gods. Your 'chief' will logically guess that Amon's clone clashed with the mental pollution left by the ' True Creator ' and eventually perished as a dead insect. The surveillance on you will definitely be reduced as a result. If you behave yourself for a while longer, the suspicion will be completely gone."
Why does Mr. The Hanged Man seem so skilled at this...? " Justice," Audrey thought, her mouth slightly agape.
" The Sun " Derrick's eyes lit up, thinking that " The Hanged Man " was indeed trustworthy, having come up with such a brilliant idea!
"Then how can I get the members of that exploration team to exhibit the most complete and abnormal state?" he quickly asked.
Alger, the " The Hanged Man silent for a moment, then spoke after several seconds:
"I have no idea."
He then added:
"It would be great if there were items related to the ' True Creator '..."
With a whoosh, " Justice " Audrey looked toward Mr. " The Fool " at the head of the bronze table.
