Klein still remembers the incident with the paper cranes clearly, because Will Auceptin, the "Snake of Fate", had used that item to locate Dr. Allen's astral body. When he was traveling in the spirit world in his dreams, he was instilled with information, which formed revelations and evolved into specific dreams.
Later, Klein replaced Will Auceptin's paper crane with one he folded himself and went to the gray fog to do divination, but failed to get an effective conclusion until Dr. Allen's wife became pregnant. He calculated the time and had a vague understanding of the situation from Sequence 1 to Sequence 0, and guessed that it was Will Auceptin who had been restarted by Swallowing Tail. He guessed that the other party was fighting fiercely with another "Snake of Fate" for the Sequence 0 position, and the nightmare brought by the paper crane was just an addition. Its real purpose was to help Will Auceptin become a baby in a secret way.
The funniest thing about this incident was that the paper cranes that Klein folded were mistaken by Backlund's Nighthawks as Will Auceptin's originals, so they forged one with their cruder handwork and replaced it.
"I left Will Auceptin's mirror in the gray fog and almost forgot about it... Using it for divination can only give very vague revelations. If there were no other encounters, it would be difficult to infer that the child Dr. Allen's wife was pregnant with was Will Auceptin. But on the other hand, Will Auceptin can use it to determine the location of the spirit world, just like the magic mirror Arrodes relied on the breath of the gray fog to connect to the radio receiver from the spirit world...
“Hey, this seems to be possible…” Klein sat up straight and had a very creative idea.
He wanted to use the thousand paper cranes to communicate with Will Auceptin in his dream!
This may not be of much use to me now, and it may even be somewhat dangerous. But if Will Auceptin is really the "Snake of Fate" of the School of Life, I will definitely be able to gain a certain amount of favor by providing the corresponding information... For this kind of angel king-level existence, it is necessary to invest in advance. When he is really born, there may be a return of dozens of times. Anyway, I won't die if I try. Well, I can be resurrected if I die... Klein thought so in his heart, but he was actually very cautious. He planned to go to the gray fog to divine the degree of danger first, and then decide whether to put it into practice.
After some busy work, he determined that the danger level of this matter was acceptable, so he used a ritual to bring the paper crane back to the real world from the gray fog.
Perhaps because it came from Sequence 1 "Snake of Fate", the thousand paper cranes did not show any special features due to staying above the gray fog for too long, and they remained normal and ordinary.
"I hope the aura above the gray fog doesn't neutralize its own peculiarity, otherwise Will Auceptin won't be able to locate it. Hmm... the sequence before 'Snake of Fate' is 'Prophet'. Will what I'm going to do next be within Will Auceptin's expectations?
"He chose Dr. Allen as his father because he was my friend and he was able to establish a connection with me? Isn't this too narcissistic...
"However, there is one question that is worthy of suspicion. After Will Auceptin used the paper cranes to locate Dr. Allen, he could have just 'reincarnated' him. Why did he have to let him have nightmares again and again? Moreover, that dream also foretold the struggle between the 'snakes of fate'. For an ordinary person, he neither understands nor can he play any role in this matter. Isn't this just seducing a blind man with his eyes?
"Will Auceptin created the dream for me to see?"
Klein frowned slightly and had some guesses.
He suppressed his doubts, picked up the round-bellied fountain pen, filled it with ink, and considered leaving a message on the paper cranes to attract the attention of Will Auceptin, the "Snake of Fate".
What should I write? Klein recalled the encounter of the School of Life described by Arrodes, and felt that there was a sentence that could encompass everything, and was very vivid and contained rich emotions.
That sentence is:
"Your house exploded!"
This sentence was too vulgar and too direct, not polite enough, and Will Auceptin might not be the chairman of the School of Life... Klein considered it for a moment, unfolded the paper cranes, and wrote different words on each surface to form a very short sentence:
"Roy King was arrested."
After doing all this, Klein put away his pen and stuffed the paper cranes into his wallet, just like Dr. Allen did.
…………
On the edge of the Rorsted Sea, off the main channel, on a giant island shrouded in fog.
With a shrill cry, the blue bird of prey, as fast as a shadow, fell from the sky and landed heavily on the ground, splashing mud and blood.
Alger Wilson was not careless. He stood at a distance, raised his left hand, and pointed the black iron ring on his thumb at the terrifying and extraordinary creature, the Blue Shadow Falcon.
There was a spike-like protrusion on the top of the ring, stained with old blood, which looked both ancient and evil.
This was a magical item that he bought from the "craftsman" using the bounty of "Iron" McVitie. He claimed that it cost 5,200 pounds, but actually only spent 3,100 pounds.
The name of this ring is "Spirit Whip", which can cause great and unstoppable mental damage to the enemy. Apart from that, it only strengthens Alger's mastery of various weapons, so it is not actually that expensive.
At that time, the "Craftsman" and his friend had two magical items, one was the "Spirit Whip" and the other was the "Witch Ring". The latter had many abilities, strong adaptability, and was priced similarly to the former, making it a better choice. However, after careful consideration, Alger chose the "Spirit Whip". He believed that without this item, hunting the Blue Shadow Falcon would be several times more difficult because it was an extraordinary creature that could fly. Facts also proved his judgment.
For this, Alger was willing to endure the headaches and the annoyance of banging his head against the wall all the time.
After waiting for a few minutes, Alger breathed a sigh of relief and walked over when he saw spots of light floating on the Blue Shadow Falcon and six crystal feathers condensed on its wings.
He had a linen strip tied around his forehead, on which was inlaid a blood-red gem, which emitted a light like moonlight.
This was the Vampire Baron inheritance that should have belonged to Emlyn White, but after Alger got it, he did not rush to complete the transaction. Instead, he used its initial properties to add some insurance to his action of hunting the Blue Shadow Falcon.
Sometimes, being an intermediary is quite good... Alger sighed silently as he put away the six crystal feathers.
He straightened up and looked at the towering peaks in the center of this primitive island and the dense jungle around it, feeling that there were many unspeakable dangers hidden there.
My current strength is not enough to explore this place... Alger retracted his gaze and walked to the edge of the island, always paying attention to whether there were other "hunters" around.
Soon, he jumped into the sea and swam easily to the distance with the ability of "Navigator", where his ghost ship was parked and his sailors were still sleeping under the effect of the vampire anesthetic gas.
——To reach this pristine island, the ship must deviate from the main channel and sail for at least six hours with sea monsters lurking and storms surrounding it. There is a risk of sinking at any time. Only navigators who are familiar with the route can drive the ship nearby.
…………
Late at night, after a day of rest, Klein put down the newspaper and got into bed.
When he was about to fall asleep, he suddenly thought of a question.
Danitz has returned to the Golden Dream. Would it be a waste for me to stay in such a large suite by myself? Klein nodded barely noticeably and decided to check out of the room at dawn and change to another hotel.
After making up his mind, he fell asleep quickly and suddenly woke up in a daze.
He knew that there was a force invading his dreams!
Even the invasion of the "Snake of Fate" can be detected. Am I powerful? No, the gray fog is powerful... Klein looked around and found himself on a dark and desolate plain. There was a black spire not far away.
This was the scene he had seen in Dr. Allen's dream, but this time the mysterious silver-white giant snake was no longer on the spire.
Klein nodded thoughtfully, quickened his pace, and entered the dark spire. It was still old and decayed, with a chaotic layout. The stairs sometimes spiraled upwards, and sometimes fell diagonally. Some of the rooms were normal, some were upside down, and some were embedded in other parts.
After passing through doors and walls, Klein once again arrived at the depths of the black tower.
Tarot cards are scattered here, clustered around the slightly raised ground in the middle.
There was a line of silvery words and a portrait.
The portrait belonged to the fat pharmacist, and the silvery words formed a sentence:
"Inform Darkwill."
The fat pharmacist's name is Darkwill... Will Auceptin is really the "Snake of Fate" of the School of Life, and I can indeed use paper cranes to communicate with him in dreams... Klein waited for a while, and seeing that there was no other revelation, he exited the dream and went back to sleep.
…………
After daybreak, Klein, who had inquired about the noon check-out without extra charges, put on his hat, took a carriage, and arrived at the door of the Red Theater.
This famous brothel was at its quietest, as quiet as a haunted house.
Klein took a quick look and walked straight to the alley across the street until he arrived outside Darkwell's Folk Herbal Medicine Shop.
He suddenly felt something and looked up at the roof. He saw a fat owl standing there, staring at him.
The fat pharmacist seemed to be trying to tame extraordinary animals before... Klein looked away thoughtfully and knocked on the door.
Boom boom boom, boom boom boom!
He waited for a while, and then he saw the fat pharmacist Darkwill open the door with sleepy eyes.
"...You're not sick." Darkwill looked at him for a while and said.
Klein maintained Gehrman Sparrow's cold expression and said with a polite smile:
"Good morning, Mr. Pharmacist.
"I found your teacher."
"Really?" Fat Pharmacist Darkwill asked in disbelief, "You just accepted the commission the day before yesterday..."
