The former "Redemption Rose" could be called the Alliance of Gods... But such an organization, under the pressure of the Ancient Sun God, could only develop in secret, hiding and plotting in the palace at dusk... How powerful was the Ancient Sun God... Klein couldn't help but let out a breath, and a strong feeling surged in his heart.
He examined his own Tarot Club and found that compared with the "Redemption Rose", it was just like a child's play. Even if the non-staff members Will Auceptin, Pales Zoroast, Azik Eggers and Renette Tinicole were included, they could not compare with the "Redemption Rose" in its heyday.
No, even with the current scaled-down version of the "Redemption Rose", the Tarot Club still has a big gap. Who said its leader and convener is just a Sequence 4 Saint... Klein laughed at himself very soberly and shifted his attention to the eleven figures:
"Combining their images, titles, and real names, we can confirm that the Wind Angel, Cherubim, and Pure White Angel are the current 'Storm Lord', 'God of Knowledge and Wisdom', and 'Eternal Blazing Sun'. They really betrayed the Ancient Sun God, the Creator of Silver City, and even devoured the gods they served... The 'God of War' and the 'Mother Goddess of the Earth' are indeed the survivors of the 'Giant King's Court'. One is the eldest son of the Giant King, and the other is the Queen of the Giant King, and they are mother and son. In this case, it is a bit strange that Feynapotter did not directly declare war on Loen and help the Feysac Empire. It is worth pondering...
“Also, the goddess is indeed the former subordinate god of the ‘Destroyer Wolf’, the ‘Goddess of Doom’ Amanesis. After the fall of that ancient god, ‘She’ not only mastered the authority related to ‘Night’ and successfully ascended to the throne of Sequence 0, but also single-handedly destroyed all the descendants of Flegrea, sealed the angels of the Antigonus family in the ‘Kingdom of Night’, and used the body of the ‘Mother of Heaven’ as a vessel for her descent… How cruel…”
As a follower of the night, Klein subconsciously looked up and looked around when he thought of this, fearing that his inner secrets would be leaked to the outside world.
After entering the misty town and learning that Antigonus and the "Mother of Heaven" were both descendants of the ancient god Flegra, Klein actually had some guesses about the true identity of the "Goddess of Night". After all, the historical records of the City of Silver clearly stated that the "Destruction Wolf" had mastered the authority of "Night" and had many strange and bizarre abilities.
Combined with the fact that the Antigonus family possessed the "Fortune Teller" path, and that the "Mother of the Sky" of the Kingdom of Night clearly belonged to "Night", Klein suspected that the "Destruction Wolf" Fregra was an ancient god who mixed the extraordinary characteristics of two non-adjacent paths, so he was very crazy and almost irrational, with the goal of destroying and polluting everything.
Therefore, he guessed that the "Goddess of Night" might be related to the ancient god Fregra. From "Groselle's Travels", he learned that after the death of the Demon Wolf King, one of his two subordinate gods disappeared and the other surrendered to the Phoenix Ancestor, and that his real name corresponded to the God of Death of the Fourth Epoch, Mr. Azik's father. He vaguely connected the "Goddess of Doom" Amanesis with the "Goddess of Night" together.
But due to his temporary identity as a follower of the night and his instinctive fear, Klein didn't dare to think too much and focused his attention elsewhere.
At this moment, seeing the real name, he was not too shocked, but more of a relief, feeling that the shoe had finally dropped. In addition, he became more and more afraid of the goddess of night:
"Because she doesn't want the ancient god Fregola to be resurrected, the goddess controls everything about the 'Fortune Teller' path, preventing Beyonders who don't have Her permission from making further progress?
"By the way, when the clergy shadow in the town mentioned who killed the Dark Angel Sasriel, the Left Hand of God and the Vice-King of Heaven, he couldn't say the name, as if it had been erased. Isn't this a manifestation of 'secrecy'?
"Except in a place like the Giant King's Court, it is impossible to directly put the Goddess of Night and Amanesis together. Even if you say it, no one else can hear it...
"There are two people who convened the Redemption Rose. One is the Dark Angel Sasriel, and the other is the goddess...
"Outside the plotting location, there is a 'secret' force...
"In other words, the goddess single-handedly directed the fall of the ancient sun god, initiated the catastrophe, and ended the Third Age...
"Compared to Him, both Adam and Amon are far behind...
"Would such a true God be so easily trapped by Adam's arrangement and unable to intervene in the affairs of the real world?
“Although it was not a conspiracy, it was taking advantage of what the goddess desired most to make her walk into the trap willingly, but the goddess who was in charge of secrets and had planned the fall of the creator of Silver City, would she not have any extra preparations?
"Also, what does 'this is His thought' mean? Who is this 'He'?
"Well, knowing so much secret history, will I digest it immediately after drinking the 'Ancient Scholar' potion..."
Thinking of this, Klein raised his right hand, rubbed his forehead, and forced himself to turn his thoughts to other things:
“That clergyman’s phantom destroyed itself when it mentioned the fourth Angel King. Was it because the remaining three later became true gods?
“But the residents of Silver City would occasionally say the names Badhair and Herabergen in Giant language. Why is there nothing unusual?
“What’s the difference here?
"Why did the strongest of the Angel Kings, God's Left Hand Sasriel, disappear later and vanish in the long river of history? Well, maybe he is one of the evil gods now, the 'True Creator', the 'Dark Side of the Universe', or the 'Mother Tree of Desire'?
“There are remnants of fallen divinity outside the conspiracy hall. Are they left behind by Him?
"Well, the birth of the True Creator is related to the Redemption Rose. How will He react when He sees the murals in this hall?"
As soon as the thought came to his mind, Klein turned his gaze to the "shepherd" elder Lovia.
The lady looked a little confused, as if she didn't know enough about those titles and names, but she recognized some of them, such as the "Angel of Destiny" Ouroboros.
——It was in the ruins of the temple with the murals of Ouroboros that she became a believer of the "True Creator".
Derrick also "sneaked a glance" at Elder Lovia, but failed to detect any obvious changes in her emotions.
As the "Sun" of the Tarot Club, Derrick was the one who knew the outside world best among all the people present. He had long known who the Angel Kings were and suspected that three of them later became gods. At this moment, he was the least confused and bewildered, but was a little shocked by the level of the "Redemption Rose".
This was more exaggerated than he had imagined!
No wonder the Lord fell because of this... Derrick first understood something, then felt heavy.
At this moment, he glanced around and saw that the chief's profile was unprecedentedly pale and ugly, and he muttered a few words in a low voice:
"This is impossible, impossible..."
...As far as I can remember, the Chief has never lost his composure like this... Did he think of the Lord's death from the members of Redemption Rose? He couldn't accept that He would never come back? But, he had already known this from me... Just as Derrick was beginning to wonder, he found that the Chief's expression had returned to normal, except that his mouth was still tightly pursed.
The other members of the exploration team had in their minds the prophecy they had learned in the town that afternoon:
"Almighty God, I repent, ... I have killed Sasriel, and the kings often come to the palace of dusk to plot...
“…I discovered all this, but it was too late. Corruption, blood, darkness, decay, killing, filth and shadows had already flowed and flooded this land.
"A huge disaster will begin here!"
Haim, holding the Darkless Cross, calmed down in a short time and spoke in a slightly hoarse voice:
"This is the Palace of Dusk, and these are the Angel King and the Subordinate Gods of the Second Age?
"They conspired to cause a huge disaster, causing the Lord to abandon this land?"
Colin Iliad drew the two swords in front of him, half turned his body, and responded calmly:
"Very likely."
"If we can figure out what happened, then do we have a chance to please the Lord and make Him pay attention to this land again?" Antirna asked anxiously after hearing the chief's answer.
At this moment, Derrick seemed to see a trace of pity and sadness in the chief's eyes, and heard him say, "Hmm."
"Maybe."
"Then let's continue exploring forward!" The other team members all requested with burning eyes.
This was the closest Silver City had ever been to hope in the past two or three thousand years of suffering, and none of them were willing to let it go, even at the cost of their own lives.
Colin Iliad looked around slowly and said:
“Don’t forget the exploration rules and don’t be impulsive at any time.
"Now that we've confirmed that this place is related to salvation, we can come a second time, a third time, or even more times. There's no need to be so anxious."
After hearing what he said, the other members of the exploration team calmed down a lot, and responded one after another:
"Yes, Your Excellency the Chief."
Under the arrangement of the "Monster Hunter" Colin, the remaining team members were divided into groups and searched the hall carefully, but they did not find anything valuable other than the murals.
Of course, it's not that there aren't any. After all, this is the kingdom of the ancient gods. The seemingly ordinary long tables, chairs, stone pillars and torches will have some strange effects as long as they can be taken outside, and can last for a long time. But for the Silver City exploration team, these things are not easy to carry and lack practical value.
As for the other murals, they are profiles of the main mural from different angles. When combined together, they form a three-dimensional scene.
After completing the search, Derrick and the others gathered again and followed the chief to the exit at the back of the hall.
There is a gray-blue, non-opening door.
Colin Iliad carefully observed for a while through the gate which was more than ten meters high, and finally spoke:
"There are powerful guards outside the door."
