"The repeal of the Corn Laws... the unified examination for government employees... concessions were made, and the church's influence was introduced into the military... all of these seemed to be in line with the trend of the times, but in essence they were suppressing and weakening the nobility and supporting a new class. Compared to the previous ruling methods of more than a thousand years, this was truly a violation of the rules of normal circumstances, the kind of order needed to achieve the 'Black Emperor'...
“In the past ten years or so, architectural styles have changed a lot…
“In order for Roselle to obtain the ‘uniqueness’ and the corresponding Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristics, that ancient secret organization must have put in a lot of effort, and they may have even directly provided part of it. When this great emperor dies, who will take away those characteristics?
"Also, Bernadette has been in Backlund for the past few months, and she used to come here often...
"Well, it's mainly because the asymmetrical aesthetics of the empires in the Fourth Epoch influenced my cognition. I interpreted the rules that violated the normal situation as bizarre and against the order of human nature. Now think about it again, what is the normal situation? Isn't it the state that everyone has become accustomed to in the past and does not directly fight against the instincts of survival? From tribes to countries, from feudalism to republics, didn't they all violate the normal situation at the time? Aren't there countless people who want to return to the past?
"The term 'old and young' sums up the problem very well...
"It seems that as long as there is no intervention from the gods, the changes that the Black Emperor needs will inevitably happen. It's only a matter of sooner or later... The tide of the times is rolling in, and it's really hard to stop it. Amon's brother is indeed a powerful and terrifying writer...
"Hidden deep within the Blood Emperor's ruins is probably a mausoleum similar to a pyramid, and according to the ritual requirements, it must be repaired by driving the people, so there are the East District missing persons case, overseas slave trade, and other things...
“When the war develops to a certain stage, we will use the excuse of praying for victory or mourning the fallen soldiers to organize a large number of people to participate in sacrificial ceremonies in different cities in the kingdom…
“Well, many years ago, the Loen royal family obtained the crown of the Balam Empire and linked the king’s name with the title of emperor.
"What a great plan!"
Awakened by the question from the evil spirit of the Red Angel, Klein tensed up, and many thoughts flashed through his mind quickly, while he also had other questions.
He looked at the tall, young, pale "gatekeeper" opposite him and said carefully:
"George III wanted to simply become the 'Black Emperor'?
"But he doesn't even have Sequence 4 yet..."
Even if he could act out the role in advance to make himself "more talented" and reduce the impact of the mental imprint in the potion, Klein did not think that a Sequence 5 could directly become a god, unless he was lucky enough and grasped the extremely small probability of success.
This kind of luck cannot be simply described as "enough". Even Will Auceptin, the "Mercury Snake" that symbolizes fate, dares not swallow the "Dice of Probability" directly, but has to seriously find a way to accommodate it.
The "Red Angel" evil spirit sneered upon hearing this:
"How do you know George III is only Sequence 5?
"How can you be sure that the George III being examined is the real George III? Could it be that he is a figment of his imagination, or that he was transformed by some angel-level 'Faceless Man'?
“These are indeed very difficult things to do, but for a paranoid person, they are all within their capabilities and resources.
"I suspect that George III is an official member of the secret organization that imitated our Redemption Rose. His true status may already be at the level of an angel. Haha, I am not surprised that he has reached Sequence 1."
...This, Emperor Roselle said that the members of that ancient secret organization were all great men that he could not imagine. When they united, there was nothing they could not do except to deal with the Church of the Seven Gods... This actually included the king of a country? Yes, the emperor in his later years was also the master of Intis... Paranoid... Is this what the "Red Angel" evil spirit said about Amon's brother? Although this is obviously more extreme and has a strong subjective tendency, it must have some truth. The nickname was not chosen casually... Klein asked the secret doll to frown slightly and said:
“You made the truth of this matter seem easy to see through, but why is it that the Church of Night, Storm, and Steam have clearly noticed the problem but have not discovered the essence until now?
"They know the Black Emperor no less than you do..."
After all, the two major churches, Night and Storm, have supported the Tudor-Trensost United Empire!
The Red Angel evil spirit showed a funny expression again, and looked up and down at Dwayne Dantès and his personal manservant:
“How old are you?
“Why are you still so naive and childish?
"The Six Gods and the Six Gods Church are not necessarily the same at certain times. What the Six Gods know may not be told to the angels and saints below."
Seeing that Dwayne Dantès was still frowning and couldn't understand, the Red Angel ghost said, "Hey!"
“Believe me, what I just said and what I am going to say next are undoubtedly meant to sow discord and damage the image of the Six Gods, but you can think for yourself whether it is true or not.
"Let me put it this way. Regarding the matter of someone wanting to become the 'Black Emperor', the attitude of the Six Gods, er, the Seven Gods is rather ambiguous and often self-contradictory. A more accurate description is that they are happy to see the birth of a mentally normal 'Black Emperor', but they hope that it will be the one they support. Therefore, they will not give too specific revelations to their respective churches, but just let them follow the normal process. If they can find out, they will punish them, and if they can't, they will just allow it to develop.
“Of course, during this process, it is possible that a certain being might want to do some damage, but it would not be so direct and obvious because it would inevitably be stopped by other gods.
“If he hadn’t grasped this attitude, how could George III have dared to take the risk?
"Well, now that the war has broken out and he has survived the crisis, he can patiently wait for future opportunities."
Klein immediately thought of the fact that the news of the raid on the Blood Emperor's ruins had leaked in advance. For a moment, he didn't know whether to suspect that there were members of the ancient secret organization among the top leaders of the three major churches, or that a certain god personally reminded Amon's brother. If it was the latter, the suspect could rule out the Lord of Storms.
After a moment of silence, Klein asked hesitantly:
"So, as long as nothing unexpected happens, George III, who has done so many things, will have his godhood ceremony? And if everything goes well and he withstands the backlash of the potion, he will ascend to the throne of the 'Black Emperor'?"
The Red Angel evil spirit replied in a relaxed tone:
"Is there anything wrong with that?"
"What on earth are the seven gods doing for..." Klein couldn't help but ask.
The evil spirit "Red Angel" said:
"Do you want to know? If you want to know, I can tell you right now."
Klein was about to say "Of course" when he suddenly remembered the warning given by the Servant of Secrets, Ms. Arianna:
"For some things, the more you know, the easier it is to be 'infected', from body to soul. When you become an angel, you can explore the specific answers."
As the thought flashed through his mind, Klein let the secret doll smile slightly and said:
"Then forget it."
"Very good, you almost died because of curiosity and stupidity." The evil spirit of "Red Angel" shook his head with some regret.
He then looked out the window and said:
"If there's nothing else, you can leave."
“Okay.” Klein asked the secret doll to stand up and raised his right hand.
At this moment, the half-leaning and half-lying "Red Angel" evil spirit suddenly asked:
"I always have this feeling that if I had attacked you just now, you would not have been helpless, right?"
Of course, why do you think I chose "flame jump" instead of "teleport" directly? That's to hide the sound of the paper cranes in my wallet being ignited! In this way, Will Auceptin, the "Snake of Fate", will silently focus his gaze on me. If anything goes wrong, He will use the "Yesterday Reappearance" spell... When "dealing" with beings of your level, how can I not be cautious and careful, and the hidden means are not a little secretive? Klein did not directly answer the question of the "Red Angel" evil spirit. He smiled and agreed.
Bang!
He snapped his fingers, causing red flames to burst out of his pockets and envelop him.
The red light dispersed, and Klein’s figure disappeared from the sight of the Red Angel evil spirit.
…………
Backlund, Dr. Allen Kress's home, in a black baby carriage.
The chubby baby rubbed his eyes and muttered silently:
"Backlund is such an uninhabitable place for a child!"
…………
At 39 Böklund Street, Klein, who had divined in advance, met Congressman Macht as he wished, who was on his way to the West District.
"Aren't you going to Meige Manor? I also plan to let Liana and Hazel hide in Elk Manor." Senator Macht pinched the sides of his eyes and said.
I don’t know when this sequelae will disappear... Klein withdrew his gaze from the other party’s actions, sighed and said:
“I need to prepare some weapons for the manor, so I came to ask you for help.
"Also, if you have a way to get food, you can buy some for me as well."
In his opinion, the lower-class people cannot hoard food because they have no money and can only prepare enough for a few days. Therefore, his purchase will not affect them for the time being. When food starts to be scarce, he can donate the extra food through Miss Audrey. Before the temporary bill on food control is introduced, even if Klein does not hoard food, other rich people will do so, and they may not necessarily donate it.
"No problem." Congressman Macht agreed without any hesitation.
Klein didn't ask about the price because he gave the housekeeper Tanya 5,000 gold pounds as the fee.
Of course, after confirming that Zaratul was in Backlund and that Dwayne Dantès was equal to Gehrman Sparrow, and the Red Angel evil spirit knew about this, he had decided not to return to Meige Manor and to change his identity to avoid affecting those innocent people.
As for the excuse, it is that I was arranged by the Church of Night to do certain things and will not be able to return for a long time. If there are any charity activities that require cooperation, please follow Miss Audrey's arrangements.
