I know this... "Justice" Audrey half turned her eyes, raised her chin slightly, and happily looked diagonally forward, toward a stone pillar supporting the dome.
She quickly looked away, ready to admire Mr. Hanged Man's reaction after hearing the answer.
The "magician" Fors vaguely understood one thing:
Using the so-called Roselle Diary, you can exchange it for answers to certain questions from Mr. Fool, and maybe even exchange it for items!
"Roselle's diary? Those notes that Rossel wrote with unique symbols that no one else could understand? They are actually diaries? The Hanged Man's tone was very firm, and Mr. Fool did not refute...
"I've come across many, but I didn't buy any of them because I wasn't interested. Yes, Miss Audrey has quite a few! She's an avid fan of this! But, but, her dog last week, no, maybe it was the week before last, I can't remember exactly, anyway, it chewed up many books and notes, including all of Emperor Roselle's diaries!"
The sudden surprise and subsequent disappointment filled Fors's heart, making her want to raise her hands, cover her ears, and scream loudly.
This is not enough to express her feelings at the moment!
I hate dogs! "Magician" Fors thought bitterly.
The requirements of The Hanged Man were somewhat beyond Klein's expectations, but for him, they were the easiest to accomplish, so he chuckled and said:
"Can.
"Do you want everyone to hear it, or do you want it to be known only to yourself?"
The Hanged Man Alger answered without hesitation:
"Only you know it."
He does not have the spirit of selfless dedication.
Klein smiled and blocked the senses of the other members, which made Miss Justice feel very aggrieved. She was waiting to see Mr. Hanged Man's stunned and shocked expression, as if she had done something remarkable. Although she would not actively publicize it, she was looking forward to other people's reactions after knowing it.
But now, the damned "Hanged Man" has deprived me of this happiness! Audrey muttered in her heart.
Of course, she was well aware that the other party's request was absolutely legitimate.
But I already knew the answer... she thought with her lips pursed.
At this time, Klein leisurely turned the blasphemous card over and stood it up, allowing the "Hanged Man" to directly see Roselle wearing black armor, a crown, and a cloak.
The portrait of this great emperor was often seen, and Alger, the "Hanged Man", was no stranger to it. He recognized it immediately. More importantly, there was a bright logo on the card:
"Sequence 0, Black Emperor!"
Sure enough! It was the deck of cards that Emperor Roselle had made, which was said to contain the path to God. It was the so-called prototype of the Tarot cards! Sequence 0, "Black Emperor"... Does this card correspond to the path to Godhood of the "Lawyer" path? Mr. Fool had been collecting Roselle's diary, apparently to find clues to the deck of cards from it, and in just a few months, he had already obtained one... Alger was surprised and delighted, excited and thrilled.
Suddenly, he inexplicably felt that the future of the "Tarot Club" was extremely bright.
Before, he was just intimidated by Mr. Fool’s mystery and power, and only wanted to exchange information and items with the so-called Tarot Club. But now, he began to imagine the benefits that he and other members could gain after Mr. Fool collected Emperor Roselle’s cards one by one.
By then, the Tarot Club might become the most powerful secret organization! "The Hanged Man" Alger couldn't help but look forward to the future.
At this time, Klein said slowly:
"The card of blasphemy."
He immediately removed the shield.
As soon as she regained her senses, "Justice" Audrey immediately turned her gaze towards the "Hanged Man". Through the blurry image, she vaguely "read" the other party's remaining shock, joy and yearning.
That's how it should be... Audrey immediately felt extremely satisfied.
The "Card of Blasphemy"... As expected, it is related to the "Blasphemy Slate"... "The Hanged Man" Alger lowered his head and pondered for a few seconds, then began to materialize the three newly acquired pages of Roselle's diary.
Soon, the three pieces of yellow-brown parchment came into Klein's hands.
He lowered his eyes casually and read at a moderate pace:
"On March 15th, I was indeed the protagonist. With only some archaeological clues and folklore, I found a ghost ship left over from the Solomon Empire near the Oradek Islands on the edge of the Misty Sea, the ancient 'Black Throne'!
“It’s really cool!
“There are also some ancient books on it, including a treasure map pointing to an unknown island. That was the last settlement of a great noble of the Solomon Empire who retreated from the northern continent. Everything he left behind is there!
"This treasure will definitely belong to me!"
"On March 19th, after repeated consideration and weighing, I finally decided to go on a long voyage. After this, I will join the Kingdom Army as an officer, and it will be difficult for me to have such an opportunity again.
"Edwards and Green were willing to follow me on this adventure in that foggy ocean.
"In fact, I am not here just for the treasure. I also want to verify a question. From the sun to the red moon, from the movement of the stars in the sky to the alternation of spring, summer, autumn and winter, all kinds of signs and different data prove that the world I live in should be a planet. If so, it should not have only the North and South continents. From various data, it can be inferred that the area occupied by the North and South continents combined is less than 10% of this planet. Is it true that other places are just oceans and archipelagos?
“To the west of the Northern Continent is the Misty Sea, and to the east is the Sonia Sea. I suspect that there are other continents at the end of these two oceans, just like the end of the Raging Sea is the Southern Continent. Maybe I can discover a completely new continent, the Western Continent!
"Let's go, great navigator Russell Columbus Magellan Gustav, and verify your conjecture!"
The emperor was so reckless when he was young. He dared to sail out to sea based on a treasure map that he didn't know whether it was real or fake, and didn't know what kind of danger it contained. No, he was just as reckless when he was old. The "Card of Blasphemy" was the evidence... Klein couldn't help but complain in his heart.
This page of the diary seemed to be connected to the one he had read before, with only one or two other pages in between. So, Klein was roughly certain that Russell got lost during this voyage and found a primitive island outside the safe waterway with many extraordinary creatures. During this process, he also used the "Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse" and "One Piece" jokes to tease Green, Edwards and others who followed him to sea.
In addition, Green, the man praised by Roselle as the smartest among us, became increasingly strange after discovering the primitive island and eventually died in the Misty Sea.
Speaking of which, the view that this world is a planet is now widely accepted and confirmed by astronomy... Klein turned to the second page of his diary:
"On April 18th, I discovered the term 'Western Continent' in the ancient books on the 'Black Throne'!
“There really is a Western Continent!
“However, even in the Fourth Epoch, in the Solomon Empire, when the gods still walked the earth, the Western Continent was only a rumor. It was said to be the homeland of the elves, involving the ancient god named Sonia Solem.
“But the problem is that the elves were eventually trapped on the island of Sonia, and then scattered across the mountains and islands in the sea. There has never been any legend of them trying to return to their homeland.
"In short, there may be a Western Continent at the end of the Misty Sea, the homeland of the elves. But what about the end of the Sonia Sea? Is there really an Eastern Continent? What fragments of mythology is it hidden in? Could it be the illusory 'Forsaken Land of the Gods'?
"Keep going, Roselle, you're almost there!"
Western Continent, Eastern Continent... Roselle guessed that the latter might be the "Forsaken Land of God"... Oh, Mr. "Hanged Man" once said that many Aurora members were looking for the "Sanctuary" of the "True Creator" in the Sonia Sea, and he suspected that the "Sanctuary" was the "Forsaken Land of God"... This was somewhat similar to Emperor Roselle's idea... There are still many secrets in this world... Klein moved his eyes downward and looked at the last few paragraphs on this page:
"On April 20th, all signs showed that we were about to reach a land that was not an island!
"Is there such a benefit in getting lost? Will I find the so-called Western Continent?"
"On April 21, I saw the abyss."
Abyss? Russell saw the abyss. Was it the abyss in the sense of mysticism? Klein's pupils shrank slightly, and he quickly turned the page.
But the third page of the diary made him doubt his life and his many years of Chinese education.
It is filled with the following sentences:
"Ah Ri Hu is hungry and invited people to the mansion."
This... Klein suddenly understood that this page should be a forged diary of Roselle by later generations. They randomly pieced together a bunch of sentences based on the original "symbols".
At this moment, Klein felt like he was seeing garbled text, and he had the urge to curse those counterfeiters.
He really wanted to confirm whether the abyss mentioned in Roselle's diary was the "abyss" referred to by terms such as "the source of all evil, the fallen land, the residence of demons".
The real "abyss" is the dark side of the universe where even gods can be corrupted. It should be independent of the real world like the spirit world. At least that's what the Book of Secrets and the classics I came across in the Nighthawks team record... If it's not the real "abyss", then what does the abyss that the emperor wants to talk about refer to? Klein thought about it over and over again but couldn't get an explanation. He felt very unhappy, just like the eunuch who had been following the update all the time at the most critical moment.
After a quick glance, he calmed himself down and let the diary disappear in his hands.
"You can start now." He chuckled as he sat at the head of the long bronze table.
The Hanged Man Alger immediately turned his head and looked towards the Sun, and asked nonchalantly:
"Did you find out anything from the former captain of the exploration team?"
