Above the gray fog, in a palace supported by stone pillars.
Sun Derrick quickly reported his experience to Mr. Fool.
"Dark Angel" Sasler... The names or titles of these angel kings seem to have been drowned in the long river of history and are almost no longer known. If it weren't for the discovery of Little "Sun" and his team in the God-forsaken Land, if it weren't for the encounter with the ancient evil spirit that was suspected to be the "Red Angel" himself, I wouldn't even know who the angel king was. At most, I heard of the Amon family, but I couldn't get to know the "blasphemer"... Where is this "Dark Angel" now? Is he still alive? Is he still one of the top leaders of the "Redemption Rose"? Klein sighed.
Afraid that Little Sun would ask questions about this matter that he would not be able to answer, Klein stopped thinking instantly and leaned back in his chair leisurely and said:
"Your predicament has been resolved, and your companions will soon be here."
As he spoke, he didn't give the little "Sun" any chance to talk too much and directly cut off the connection.
As for how to explain the abnormality of the little "sun" if someone discovered it, Klein didn't even bother to remind the other party to make up an excuse.
Isn't it normal for something strange to disappear and then reappear strangely, accompanied by all kinds of strange situations?
At this moment, Derrick was very grateful that Mr. Fool did not ask him more questions, because he was afraid that after leaving that different afternoon town, he would be exposed to the deadly darkness or be targeted by hidden monsters. So he urgently hoped to grasp the current situation of his body as soon as possible so as to make the most effective response. However, if Mr. Fool really asked questions, he would also describe the corresponding situation seriously and patiently.
As his consciousness returned to his body, Derrick's senses of his surroundings quickly recovered.
He opened his eyes and saw in front of him a candle that was almost burned to the bottom. The wick was holding up a small flame that was swaying in the wind.
Then, he found that the "Chief" had stood beside him at some point, and the tall Haim and Joshua wearing red gloves were two steps behind him with a wary look on their faces.
How long have they been looking at me like this... Although Derrick had already thought of a reason above the gray fog, he still felt guilty and nervous at this moment.
Colin's face, which was heavily lined with wrinkles, showed no expression. He looked at Derrick Berg and asked in a normal voice:
"What happened to you just now?"
Derrick didn't answer immediately, as that would have made it seem like he had already prepared a story. He followed the trick taught by The Hanged Man and paused for a few seconds, then spoke incoherently as if recalling and describing the story:
"After entering the basement, I saw the altar. I suspected it was an altar. I tried to distinguish the words and symbols left on it and recognized three names, including the 'Angel of Destiny' Ouroboros... At this time, the light of the lantern went out. When I looked back, Haim and Joshua were gone. I created a light source and walked out of the basement to check. I found that it was still Afternoon Town outside, but there were still candles lit in many houses there, as if, as if there were still humans living there.
"I didn't dare to leave the house. I went back to the basement and tried to do what I had done before. Uh, Chief, the text on the altar in the town that afternoon was very complete. There were three types of text. One was Giant language, one was Dragon language, and the other one I didn't recognize. But the first two expressed the same meaning. They were the titles and names of the three angels, as well as 'Redemption Rose'...
“Then I found myself back here.”
All he said was true, complete even, except for the details of how he would get back.
Derrick did not expect to be able to hide this from the "Chief". He had planned to be vague when the other party asked him about it and attribute the cause to an abnormality that he did not understand.
This will definitely make the Chief suspicious, but Mr. Hanged Man and Miss Justice from the Audience channel both said that he would not ask too many questions about similar matters. My abnormal behavior would make him pay more attention to me and regard me as a pawn to balance Elder Lovia... The world outside is really complicated. I only really understood their thinking recently... Derrick couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
In the harsh environment, the lack of strength would be dangerous. In the past, there were few similar things in the Silver City. Even if there were, they were basically concentrated within the "Six-Man Council". The first thing the other Beyonders learned during patrols and adventures was cooperation.
Colin nodded slightly, walked to the altar, and repeated all the attempts Derrick had described, but he did not disappear into thin air and remained standing there.
"It seems that the remaining power has completed its mission." The "Demon Hunter" whispered to himself.
I don't even need to make up excuses... Derrick thought with some shame.
Colin thought for a moment and turned his head to look at Derrick:
"What are the titles of Medici and Sasriel?"
“The Red Angel and the Dark Angel.” Derrick did not hide it.
Colin nodded slightly as if he was thinking:
"In those few books, there is a mention of the 'Red Angel', but there is no specific name. As for the 'Dark Angel' Sasriel, he has completely disappeared in the long history."
Derrick was just about to ask about the remaining Angel Kings when he suddenly saw the candlelight at the entrance to the basement dim, as if shadows were pouring in from outside.
"Let's leave here first. Demon Hunter," Colin also noticed it and said cautiously.
Derrick, holding the "Hurricane Axe", immediately moved closer to Haim and Joshua, wanting to form a battle formation with them.
However, just as he took a step forward, he found that Haim retreated two meters to the side, and Joshua raised his left palm wearing a red glove. Both of them had an unconcealable wariness on their faces, and their eyes were full of scrutiny.
Derrick knew their reaction was normal, because there were corresponding instructions in the exploration-related courses: observe more and have less contact with companions who have just escaped from strange situations!
And I still can’t explain how I got out of that strange afternoon town… Derrick opened his mouth to explain, but then closed it in silence.
He felt ashamed and aggrieved. He pursed his lips, picked up the "Hurricane Axe", turned around, followed the "Chief", and left the basement step by step.
The group of four quickly came to the door and prepared to go out, but they were surprised to see that the afternoon town with gray and stacked buildings outside seemed to have become a little darker.
Almost instantly, candle flames appeared one after another in different windows of different houses. The dim light was either separated or connected, quiet and silent.
…………
Klein didn't stay in the gray fog for too long. He quickly returned to the bathroom and put away the corresponding items.
"I hope that there won't be any more accidents with Little Sun. Otherwise, it's not good to keep going in and out of the bathroom. People who know will understand that there is a secret, but those who don't might think that Gehrman Sparrow has a prostate problem, which would ruin his character!
“Although I have completely digested the Faceless Man potion, the Puppet Master Rosago also ascended through the ranks one by one, and the Beyonder Characteristics he left behind must also contain a portion of the Faceless Man potion… Using this Beyonder Characteristics as the main ingredient, it is equivalent to me drinking an extra bottle of Faceless Man, a bottle of Magician, a bottle of Clown, a bottle of Fortune Teller, or even more than that…
“Well, I still have to follow the various rules I summarized before to digest these unnecessary ingredients.” Klein made some water, washed his face, and then walked out of the bathroom.
He was just wondering if it was time for dinner and was about to take out his gold-cased pocket watch to take a look when his vision suddenly went dark and he could hardly see his fingers.
It's night again... The intervals are so irregular... What if we encounter a monster and the two sides are fighting fiercely, and it suddenly gets dark? What should we do? Monsters are also living beings, and they should also sleep, otherwise they will most likely disappear at night... Hehe, the two sides lie down at the same time while fighting, take a nap, and continue when they wake up... Isn't this really an unspeakable story below the neck? After successfully being promoted, Klein, who was in a more relaxed mood, complained a few words and walked quickly towards the bed.
As soon as he lay down, he suddenly thought of a question:
“The night here is very dangerous. If a living being doesn’t fall asleep, it will disappear and be lost forever.
"The darkness in the 'Forsaken Land of the Gods', including the City of Silver, is also very dangerous. If humans don't have light to dispel the darkness, they may disappear and be lost forever after five seconds.
"Very similar... Is there a connection?"
Klein shook his head and entered a dream through meditation.
In the dream, as soon as he woke up, he found that his position had changed again!
The last time he left his dream, he was on the boulder where Admiral of the Stars Cattleya was sitting with her knees hugged, but now he was at the entrance of a staircase.
The light of dusk shines through the stained glass high up, making the spiraling black stairs covered with reliefs extremely gorgeous.
Klein instinctively looked to the side and saw the "Mysterious Queen" standing at the stairs leading to the upper floor.
The lady with chestnut hair no longer wore the skirt with an open hem. She wore a white shirt with lace and satin flowers on the upper body, with a simple dark blue jacket, and beige trousers and black leather boots on the lower body. However, Klein believed that the "mysterious queen" might have a row of similar pants and leather boots, a wardrobe, or even a room.
"What's the matter?" Klein asked first.
The "Mysterious Queen" stroked the escalator with her right hand and walked down slowly, saying:
“Confidence can sometimes be a disadvantage.
"You trust that copper whistle and that paper crane too much. Maybe one day, you will be in danger because of them."
Klein felt somewhat uneasy, but he did not show it:
"I don't understand you."
"Confidence is sometimes a shortcoming. The Mysterious Queen repeated, "Cattleya trusted the seal she gave to Heath Doyle too much. If I hadn't boarded the ship, Nina would have died, Frank Lee would have died, and she would have died too. Only you might have survived."
"That seal can't actually block the whispers that fill this sea area? So Heath Doyle will mutate?" Klein keenly interpreted the implied meaning of the "Mysterious Queen".
The "Mysterious Queen" nodded:
"Normally, it can. But do you know who is the source of the whispers that fill this sea area?"
Without waiting for Klein to answer, she gave the answer on her own:
"The True Creator."
