Sitting diagonally behind the statue is an old man in a black robe. He is wearing a hood, with his head lowered and his eyes closed. The white beard around his mouth and face is long and thick, as if it has not been trimmed for several years or even decades, making it difficult to see his original appearance.

In Klein's eyes, this bearded old man was even more bizarre than the figures hanging in the air.

After his "spiritual line" extended out from his body, it did not float high into the sky and converge to the place where the "magnet" seemed to be hidden. Instead, it circled around his body and returned to the place where it came out. The source and the end point became one!

——The normal "Spirit Line" originates from the body of a living being and extends in different directions to infinity. As for the figures hanging from above, the source of the "Spirit Line" has not changed, but the end points of the extension are all concentrated on the top of this ancient church. It is obvious that there is a big problem at first glance.

Is this why he was not suspended? Or is this his way of avoiding the danger inside the church? Klein manipulated his "spiritual thread" to resist the tendency to float upwards, while whispering to himself, speculating on the reason.

Suddenly, he saw a pair of eyes, their pupils as dark as the eyes on the lightless water.

The old man sitting diagonally behind the statue suddenly opened his eyes.

He is still alive!

Klein subconsciously took a step back, slightly bent his body, and blocked the front with his left palm.

In the indescribable and heart-pounding silence and tension, the old man with a pale beard moved his eyes slightly, half-closed his mouth, and spoke incoherently:

"Finally, another 'Fortune Teller' has arrived here..."

And? Have other "Fortune Tellers" entered this church? Yes, in addition to those who were erased by the "Eraser" angel who came to the Misty Town, those creatures who disappeared at night in the God War Ruins will also appear here. Among them may be a few "Fortune Tellers" who tried to find mermaids in that sea area or successfully promoted to the Beyonder who were ready to leave... Klein saw that the other party did not attack him immediately and had the inclination to communicate, so he forced himself to calm down and asked thoughtfully:

"Why do you say that?"

The old man with black eyes, white beard and hood did not respond directly. He asked in a vague and low voice:

"Do you want to escape from here?

"I can tell you how."

Klein was not impressed and immediately asked:

"Then why are you still here?"

If you know how to escape from this foggy town, why would you stay in this dangerous church?

The old man half lowered his head and laughed twice in his throat:

"Because I'm already dead."

“…” Klein’s hairs stood up on his back, and he was speechless.

In his eyes, this old man was not a soul!

Seeing no response from the other side, the old man slowly raised his head, glanced at Klein in Gehrman Sparrow's guise, and said:

"I used my special extraordinary ability to find a gap in the history and destiny of this world, cut out my own image, and froze it there. It has remained there until now. As for my body and my soul, they have long since completely died and dissipated."

This ability is incredible... Klein had no way to verify its authenticity, so he could only ask:

"Then why did you instruct the 'Fortune Teller' who entered here to escape?"

The old man's voice was still unclear:

“After you open the door, the history and destiny of this place will change, and the image I cut out will disappear. At that time, you will see a jar of ashes.

"I just want them to be thrown into the Serenzo River near Trier, the capital of Intis, my hometown, where I was born.

"Do you understand the name of this place? I don't know how much time has passed in the real world."

Imprisoned here for at least a hundred years? Klein responded calmly:

“They still exist.”

"Very good." The old man nodded as if there was phlegm in his throat.

Although Klein didn't trust the person in front of him, he decided not to waste time, as knowing more would be more conducive to comprehensive judgment, so as to avoid being interrupted by an accident again:

"Then how can I escape?"

The old man still sat there, without making any obvious movements:

"See that wall behind this statue?

"Is there a depression on top?"

Klein actually didn't want to do what he said, because he was misled by the witch Panatia before and saw her incomplete form of a mythical creature, which frightened and hurt him. However, he also planned to look around for clues, so he finally moved his gaze carefully and looked at the wall behind the stone statue.

There were short and crude symbols carved there one after another, but there was a blank space in the middle, and they could not be connected to form a shape.

The blank area was the size of two palms and was obviously sunken inward, as if someone had dug out the surface bricks.

"As long as you can find the corresponding obsidian and place it here, you can make this wall get rid of its 'hidden' state and present an illusory color. At that time, I will tell you a complex and special symbol. It is the key to open the door of escape on the wall." The bearded old man did not turn his head, but looked straight ahead and spoke in detail.

A complex and special symbol... a key to open the door... Klein listened to the whispers of "Honakis... Fragra..." echoing in the wind behind him, and a symbol suddenly popped up in his mind:

That is a vertical eye composed of many hidden symbols!

That was the message that the Antigonus Family Notes conveyed to him through the infection of the "Doom Puppet"!

The Antigonus family seems to have a close connection with the "Kingdom of Night" on the main peak of the Hornachis Mountains!

Is this the so-called "key to open the door"? Klein calmly withdrew his gaze and asked:

"Why did all those 'fortune tellers' fail before?"

The hooded old man sitting behind the statue laughed:

"Some of them were as talkative as you. They didn't have time to leave the church before the red moon became clear, and were hung up there. The guy who gave himself a handsome face was one of them, and so was the girl with flawless features."

"..." Klein was almost speechless after being teased by the other party.

However, he also learned one thing from this, that is, when the red moon is clear, the danger inside the church will increase exponentially, and even the "Master of Secret Dolls" will no longer be able to control his own spiritual thread!

Always pay attention to changes in light, and "go through the wall" as soon as the red moon becomes clear... Klein looked around and determined that the outer wall closest to the pitch-black altar was six or seven meters away, then quickly formulated an emergency plan in his mind.

The hooded old man did not look up at him, but continued to speak:

"The rest were unlucky enough to be eaten by enemies who had lost their minds and only wanted food.

"You know, there aren't many Beyonders who take the 'Fortune Teller' path, and even fewer who can become 'Puppet Masters'. The number of people who come here for various reasons can be counted on one hand.

"Of course, there are many more people who are attracted and lured here, but it is difficult to enter here. They are all..."

He did not finish his speech. He slowly raised his head, looked at the highest point of the ancient church, and then said vaguely:

"The ending is just as tragic."

What do you mean... If I fail to steal the notes, and have to follow the mumbling of the corpses hanging in this church, climb the main peak of the Hornachis Mountains, and look for the treasure left by the Antigonus family, will I be one of those who are attracted and lured? It is difficult to enter here, and the ending is equally tragic? Klein's thoughts turned, combined with the dilapidated palace and transparent worm group he saw in the previous divination, he became more and more suspicious that the so-called treasure of the Antigonus family was a trap.

He didn't bother to ask about this matter in detail, and first inquired about more important information:

"Do you know where that piece of obsidian is?"

The old man laughed softly and said:

"It's in the hands of that 'Witch of Despair'."

"The Witch of Despair", it turns out that Panatia is really the "Witch of Despair"... Klein had secretly called Panatia this before, but this was because he knew that she was honored as "Lady Despair" and was definitely a witch, so he simply pieced the two together into a nickname. What he didn't expect was that Sequence 4 of the "Witch" pathway might really be called "The Witch of Despair".

"Then it will be difficult for me to obtain the obsidian. She is a true demigod." Klein did not hide his embarrassment, waiting to see what advice the other party would give.

The old man shook his head and said:

“I am a person who has died a long time ago and can provide very little help.

"Um...wasn't there a secret doll when you came in?"

"Yes, but it has been eaten by the Witch of Despair." Klein replied calmly.

The old man half sighed and half laughed:

"Let me help you summon him from the history of this world."

As soon as he finished speaking, Klein saw the lines around him quickly outlined, depicting the "Blood Admiral" Senior wearing a tricorn hat and a dark red coat, and the "Spirit Line" was still under his control!

Klein's eyes suddenly shrank and froze, and the hooded old man added in his ear:

“It can only last for two quarters of an hour, so you have to manage your time well.

"I will help you strengthen the connection a little more and improve your control over the secret doll. In this way, you can let the secret doll use your extraordinary ability and exchange positions with it instantly. Hehe, the control distance and living characteristics will also be improved accordingly."

Let the puppet use my extraordinary ability? In this way, can't I use the ability of the "Faceless Man" to make the puppet become another me? The most perfect substitute? Is this a demigod of the "Fortune Teller" path? Is this one of the abilities of the "Trickster"? The enemy will never know whether the one they killed is the real "Trickster"? In addition, summoning a puppet from history is beyond imagination... Klein's mind was filled with thoughts one after another, and it was difficult to calm down.

The old man looked up at him and continued:

"Give me a paper figure."

Klein frowned slightly and hesitated for a few seconds before taking out a paper figure and handing it to the other party.

The old man stretched out his dry palm, took the paper man, and wiped it casually.

Klein's headache, fever, stuffy nose and sore throat suddenly disappeared!

The paper man was stained with red rust and quickly became brittle and cracked.

Using my paper figurine to help me transfer the disease? Klein thought about it and finally asked:

"Please forgive my impoliteness just now. How should I address you?"

The old man did not answer immediately, but sighed and said:

"That's all I can do to help."

He paused, smiled vaguely and said:

"You can call me, um...

"Zaratul."
