In the early morning, above the gray fog.
Klein produced a pen and paper and carefully wrote down the divination statement:
"It is dangerous to use a radio."
After carefully examining it twice, he took out the pendulum from his left wrist cuff and began to divine.
During this process, he was highly alert and somewhat fearful, just like a child who covers his ears while lighting firecrackers. If the "True Creator" or the "Original Witch" were indeed involved, divination itself would be in danger. For someone else, it would just be a different way of losing control or dying. But Klein had the gray fog to separate him, so it wouldn't be so miserable. It was obviously better to detonate here than to die in the real world. What he was worried about was that after repeating this several times, the evil gods would lock on to his location and come to visit him in person.
He quickly entered a meditative state and silently recited the divination words.
After doing it seven times in a row, he knew what the result would be without opening his eyes, because he was still sitting there well, not enduring extreme pain.
When I looked at the citrine pendant, I found that it was indeed making a counterclockwise selection.
Huh... Klein breathed a sigh of relief and immediately returned to the world. He was busy preparing for the ceremony and took the radio receiver out of the mysterious space above the gray fog.
After waiting for about half an hour, he finally heard the radio receiver making a clicking sound, and a piece of illusory white paper came out with lines of Rune text on it:
"I am coming.
"Great Master, is that you?"
Why does it give me the feeling of someone poking their head out... Klein suddenly remembered an emoticon he had seen in his previous life. It was a cute alpaca poking its head forward.
He took two steps forward and said "hmm" in a reserved manner.
Da da da, the illusory white paper immediately spit out more:
"Your humble and loyal servant Arrodes awaits your service."
Klein hid his discomfort in his heart and asked:
"Arrodes, tell me, where is Roy King from the School of Life?"
Based on the description of the fat pharmacist, he knew that their organization developed in the form of master-apprentice inheritance, and deduced that they mastered two extraordinary paths, "monster" and "pharmacist", which was consistent with the characteristics of the School of Life.
At the same time, Klein also prepared Roy King's photo in a way that it was better to rely on himself than on others.
The sound of "da da da" suddenly intensified, and the magic mirror Arrodes actually drew a portrait with the radio receiver. It was Roy King with neatly combed hair and wearing framed glasses.
"Is it him?" A group of Runewen followed closely behind.
Klein nodded:
"Um."
The magic mirror Arrodes made the clicking sound of the radio receiver become unusually brisk:
"Great Master, the person you are looking for is imprisoned in the Governor's Mansion in Bayam, the City of Generosity."
Imprisoned in the Governor's Mansion? Klein frowned slightly, but did not rush to ask further. He said calmly and confidently:
"Okay, according to your principles, it's your turn to ask questions."
Dadada, Arrodes used the radio receiver to type out a stick figure smiley face and a line of words:
"I have asked, and you have answered."
When? Klein was stunned for a moment, then he looked at the content in front of the illusory white paper and saw the previous question: "Is it him?"
This is also possible? This counts as well? At this moment, Klein completely realized how free the rules of the Magic Mirror Arrodes were. When facing ordinary people, they were as strict as they could be, as bad as they could be, and even required onlookers. But here, they just dealt with it casually, blatantly letting it go.
How could this guy develop such a personality... Klein thought for two seconds and asked another question:
"Arrodes, do you know the book "Groselle's Travels"?"
Arrodes was silent for two seconds, and then the radio receiver began to make a stiff clicking sound, spitting out more illusory white paper:
“Great Master, you are so considerate of me with this question. I only need to answer with the word ‘know’ to solve the problem. I modified it a little for you and changed it to ‘something you know about Groselle’s Travels’.
“This is a very magical book, and many of its owners have disappeared.
"I can't see who created it, but it is clear that it first appeared in the dragon clan after the disappearance of the 'City of Miracles' Levished."
Appearing after the "City of Miracles" Levished, the manifestation of "Dragon of Imagination" Angerwede, disappeared? Maybe I can sell it to Miss "Justice". She might be interested. If she really buys it, as a middleman, I can do some research in advance above the gray fog... If there is any problem, and the book is completely damaged, I can tell her that the seller regrets it and can only refund the money... Thinking about it this way, being a platform is really promising! Klein's thoughts turned quickly, and he said to the radio receiver:
"It's your turn."
I want to see what weird questions you can ask... Klein thought silently.
The magic mirror Arrodes did not pause, typing out lines of rune text:
"Great Master, I have asked, and you have answered."
When did this happen... Klein looked at the illusory white paper in amusement and confusion, and finally found the so-called question at the very beginning: "Great Master, is it you?"
I have to say that this magic mirror called Arrodes really has no moral integrity when it comes to trying to please me... However, the way it asks questions in pairs really satisfies my obsessive-compulsive disorder, and is very similar to the "{" and "}" in the programming language I taught myself before... Klein cleared his throat and continued to ask questions:
"Why was Roy King imprisoned in the Governor's Mansion?"
The radio receiver spit out an illusory white paper with a sound:
"Ever since the disappearance of the Mercury Snake of the School of Life, they have been divided internally and have encountered many dangers. Some have even died at the hands of the School of Roses.
"The 'Life School' developed secretly in the form of master-disciple inheritance, but there is an elder council at the top to coordinate the struggles between different factions. Since the Fifth Epoch, the name of this elder council has gradually become fashionable. It is now called the 'Council of Destiny', with a total of seven members. The mercury snake is the chairman.
"Roy Jin's teacher was one of the Fate Councillors. He also had problems after the disappearance of the Mercury Snake. Before that, he gave Roy Jin an important seal of the Life School. This is why Roy Jin was secretly arrested by the Loen military."
The mercury snake is missing? Klein immediately thought of Will Auceptin who was hiding in Backlund, and the other mercury snake that was chasing him but never showed up, which was suspected to be the "Angel of Destiny" Ouroboros.
The mercury snake of the School of Life is definitely not the one looking for Will Auceptin, because he has enough space to contact the organization and will not become missing... Maybe it is Will Auceptin, or maybe it is a third one, there is no way to judge... Klein nodded slightly and said to the radio receiver:
"Ask a question."
This time I can be sure that there will be no questions ahead. Hey, let's see what you will ask... I have to say, people are a bit mean. Others are afraid of the magic mirror Arrodes asking questions, but after it helped me offset it twice in a row, I actually want it to formally ask a question... Klein waited with interest.
Dadada, the sound of the radio receiver suddenly became a little solemn, and it became increasingly difficult to spit out the illusory white paper:
"Well, great master, how can I better serve you as a loyal and humble servant?"
...I underestimated your limits... Klein suppressed his expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry, and responded in a low voice:
"Just keep it like this."
"Okay." Dadada's voice was brisk again, "The breath will soon dissipate. Your loyal and humble Arrodes is waiting to serve you again."
At the end, Arrodes even added a stick figure of him waving.
It's really versatile... Also, it's hard for a magic mirror that knows so much not to understand all of this... Klein watched the radio receiver return to silence.
He paced a few steps, sat on the edge of the bed, and thought about Roy King.
He had no intention of sneaking into Governor-General Bayam's mansion and rescuing Roy King under the strict supervision of the military, because he did not know him at all and had never even met him. The only connection was the fat pharmacist.
There must be many Beyonders imprisoned underground in the Church of the Storm, but what does this have to do with me? Klein laughed and shook his head.
The information Arrodes revealed just now made him realize one thing, that is, the magical item that made "Blood Admiral" Senior lucky enough might come from the "School of Life". The "Rose School" was most likely behind this pirate general. They took advantage of the disappearance of the Mercury Snake to kill many members of the "School of Life".
"This also reminds me that I have to be more cautious than before when dealing with pirate generals. 'Vice Admiral of Disease' Tracy found 'The Immortal Witch' Catalina Pellet after a disagreement. The other pirate generals will also have supporters. They often represent a force or an organization... 'Blood Admiral' is backed by the 'Rose School', 'Star Admiral' is backed by the 'Moss Ascetic Order' and our Tarot Club, 'Hell Admiral' is most likely backed by the Spiritual Cult and the 'King of the Five Seas', and 'Vice Admiral of Iceberg' is backed by the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom...
"The identities of Vice Admiral Deep Sea and Vice Admiral Dusk are unknown at the moment, but they definitely didn't rely on themselves to dominate the sea for so many years...
"Think about it this way, which force was behind Vice Admiral Hurricane Zillingos, the one that gave him the 'creeping hunger', or the unspeakable one that drove him to assassinate Duke Negan?
“Well, next time we hunt pirate generals, we must not let any news leak out beforehand, and we must only try once. If we fail, we must immediately move away.” As Klein was thinking, he suddenly remembered something.
That is the paper crane folded by Will Auceptin, the Mercury Snake, and it is still in his hand!
