Chapter 183 Pressure



The current Abyss cannot even survive for most demons? After hearing Mr. Fool’s answer, Cattleya and the others were inevitably shocked.

In mysticism, the "Abyss" is recognized as the most filthy, corrupt and chaotic place, and the abode of demons. But now, most of the "indigenous people" can no longer survive there!

Was it that the environment of the Abyss had deteriorated, causing the demons to be unable to adapt, or that the filth, chaos, and depravity there had improved and were no longer suitable for the demons? Alger, the Hanged Man, quickly came up with two guesses, but he didn't know which one it was.

Cattleya, the Hermit, had similar thoughts to him, but she was more puzzled as to why the Queen would ask such a question, and what the deep meaning of Mr. Fool’s answer was, and how it would help the Queen in understanding the secrets she wanted to do.

As for Audrey, Justice, she suddenly thought of the "prophet" demigod of the Church of Knowledge. The prophet once said that the end of the world would come in 1368 of the Fifth Epoch. This was a fact recognized by all Beyonders who were good at prophecy, and even the gods claimed so.

It is now 1350, and there are only 18 years until the end of the world... So, the "abyss" has shown signs, and the filthy and chaotic environment that is already full of abstract meaning has exceeded its limit and become even worse? Audrey has roughly made a certain judgment, and she suddenly feels a little more anxious.

Originally, since there was no sign of the doomsday, she didn't believe it so much. She usually paid more attention to the current war and the people who died, were injured, and suffered in the war. But now, the changes in the "Abyss" made her inexplicably terrified. She urgently wanted to improve herself and digest the potion as soon as possible to obtain the extraordinary characteristics left by Hvin Rambis and be promoted to a demigod.

Only in this way can she have the ability to interfere and fight against certain things she does not want to see.

I hope Mr. World will give me more commissions... Audrey "Justice" prayed silently in her heart and calmed her restless emotions quietly.

Members such as "Star" Leonard, "Magician" Fors, and "Judgement" Xio actually have some doubts about whether the "Abyss" really exists, because after the Second Era, the "Abyss" has never appeared in front of the world again. Most of the demons active in reality come from the Blood Worship Cult. Even the high-level demons and evil beings pointed to by the rituals are very likely to be the top of the Blood Worship Cult.

Of course, this evil god of the "dark side of the universe" is widely believed to be the incarnation of the "abyss", but his presence is very low. If he did not occasionally respond to rituals and show the characteristics of the demon realm, he would probably be considered a pure myth, just like the giant king Almir.

But even so, the confidential information of the Church of Evernight that Leonard currently has access to shows that it is possible that the "dark side of the universe" is disguised by other evil gods and secret entities.

"Sun" Derrick was not surprised. In some places far away from the City of Silver, in the depths of endless darkness, there were many demons that could not remain calm, including demigods such as "devils", which seemed to be not much different from the "abyss".

If it weren't for the existence of iconic things like the "Giant King's Court", the people of Silver City would definitely suspect that the truth behind their abandonment was that they were thrown into the "Abyss".

As the Tarot Club members' thoughts flashed, Cattleya, the Hermit, suppressed her doubts and continued to ask:

“Dear Mr. Fool, the second question is: were the things that Emperor Roselle did in his later years affected by any external, unnecessary influence?”

This question reminded Klein of the horrifying details and contradictions in Russell's diary in his later years, and he sighed for a moment.

He shook his head slowly in the gesture of a "fool".

No... those things were what the emperor wanted to do... Just as Cattleya, the Hermit, was beginning to feel uncontrollable disappointment and frustration, she heard Mr. Fool half-laughing and half-sighing:

“It’s not an impact, it’s pollution, pollution that is difficult for me to detect.”

Pollution... Was Emperor Roselle polluted in his later years? At that time, he was already an angel on earth, but he was still polluted? Was it from a true god, or was it the underground pollution that even the ancient gods feared? Audrey, "Justice", was shocked, but combined with the secrets she had learned, she had some guesses.

The "Hanged Man" Alger and other members of the Tarot Club also did not expect that such a thing would happen to Emperor Roselle in his later years, and they began to have certain doubts about his purpose in making the "blasphemous card".

At the same time, they believed that Mr. Fool's collection of "blasphemous cards" might have a deeper purpose than they had originally inferred.

“In this ‘card game’ involving the entire world, only big figures like Mr. Fool are qualified to be ‘card players’, and we are just a card, or some chips… The Angel King and Sequence 1 angels may be qualified to participate…” Alger, the Hanged Man, sighed and actually had some desire to become a “card player”.

The story of the emperor's later years turned from a tyrant to an evil god? A novel that started out romantic, inspiring, passionate, with love, adventure, and the decadent life of the upper class in Intis turned into a horror story in the end? I don't even dare to write it like this! If I were to write it, I would make the emperor's tragic ending come from betrayal of love, betrayal of marriage, betrayal of promises... "Magician" Fors couldn't help but let his thoughts run wild, and he had the urge to write a biography for Emperor Roselle.

Of course, there are many Russell biographies on the market, some of which are even contraband.

Polluted... So it was polluted... "Hermit" Cattleya felt both emotional and sad for a moment.

She lamented that the emperor did not end up turning from a hero into a dragon like the story of the dragon slayer he told. He was still a legend worthy of admiration. The sad thing was that it was not until today that this misunderstanding was initially resolved.

After her emotions gradually settled, Cattleya recalled the incident of being contaminated, and the more she thought about it, the more horrified she became.

She thought she knew Roselle best among all the Tarot Club members present, and knew exactly what heights the great emperor had reached in his later years. Mr. Fool was a convener and witness, not a member.

But such a Sequence 1 angel who aimed at the throne of true God was actually polluted silently, without himself and the people close to him noticing at all!

This is more terrifying than terrifying... "Hermit" Cattleya secretly took a breath and exhaled slowly to regulate her emotions.

Then, she bowed again to the head of the mottled long table:

"Thank you for your answer, Mr. Fool."

...I also thank you for not asking questions that are beyond the scope... "The Fool" Klein laughed at himself, leaned back in his chair, and nodded slightly:

"You guys get started."

Just like before, the Tarot Club members had either just been promoted, were still digesting things, or had nothing to trade, so they were temporarily in a state of no demand. After looking at each other for a few times, they decided to go straight into the free exchange session.

Of course, Emlyn the Moon was a special case. He wanted to do a commission and find someone to help rescue him from the underground of Saint Samuel's Church. Yes, until today, he was still "protectively detained" behind the Chanis Gate of the Backlund Parish Headquarters of the Church of the Night. Next door was Bishop Utravsky. During this period of time, no "Night Watcher" came to interrogate them.

If the internal personnel responsible for guarding the sealed land had not brought them a certain amount of clean water and food every day, Emlyn would have thought that he and Father Utravsky had been forgotten.

The dark and silent environment is fine, it’s just a little cold... But without dolls, newspapers, books, or historical documents, this life has no meaning at all... Moreover, the Nighthawks only provide cow blood, which tastes terrible and the effect is not very good. I am weak... Emlyn opened his mouth but did not speak, because he felt it was very embarrassing. After all, it was he who had consulted the Star and promoted the "custodial protection" last time. As a result, he was also "custodial protection".

I hope that guy hasn’t forgotten me and is trying to find a way to let me out… Emlyn glanced at “Star” Leonard and remained silent.

Leonard maintained a fairly upright sitting posture and did not respond to the Moon's gaze.

He didn't have any good solution for the time being, because he was the one who proposed "protective custody" in front of the archbishop, and Emlyn White was a vampire viscount, equivalent to a Sequence 5 Beyonder, a mobile human bomb, and a believer in the Mother Earth. There was no reason to release him now.

I can only wait for the vampires to protest to us through other channels before I have room to maneuver... "Star" Leonard decided to apply for a private conversation later and let "Moon" Emlyn find a way to get the vampire leaders in touch with the Church of the Night.

Their interaction was seen by "Justice" Audrey, who immediately thought of the question that Mr. "Moon" had asked last time. She suspected that something went wrong in the process of implementing "protective custody", but it didn't seem too serious.

I heard that the priest of the Harvest Church saved many people during the heavy fog in Backlund. I hope nothing unexpected happens... Audrey nodded slightly and cast her gaze towards the little "sun".

Other Tarot Club members besides her also set their sights on "The Sun" Derrick.

They all knew that Silver City was scheduled to explore the "Giant King's Court" last week, and the results should have come out by now.

Derrick the Sun sat up straight, glanced at Mr. The Hanged Man, and said consciously:

"We have completed our first exploration of the Giant King's Court. Three people died, one is missing, and five survived... We first arrived at the main gate of the court and saw two Silver Knights guarding there in an unknown state. This is the Sequence 3 name of the Giant Pathway..."
