Hermes? He is an ancient powerful being... Klein's brows twitched slightly.
With a solid foundation in mysticism, he knew very well in which era the old man who created the ancient Hermetic language was active.
"That was the Second Age when giants ruled the earth and dragons soared in the sky. In a sense, they appeared in human history earlier than the God of War and the Mother Goddess of the Earth. In other words, before joining the Tarot Club, the little "Sun" didn't know the Seven Gods, but he probably had heard of the name Hermes. Well, I'll find a chance to let the 'World' confirm it later...
"That old man personally experienced the thorny road of human ancestors who tested drugs on themselves and sought extraordinary powers step by step. He used the giant language and dragon language as a blueprint, stood on the shoulders of pioneers, and invented a whole set of extraordinary languages belonging to humans. He has most likely seen the first 'blasphemous slate'!
"He actually lived to the time of Emperor Roselle, and may even be alive today! He is a living fossil of human mysticism!" Klein sighed, realizing the horror of the "Twilight Hermit Order" from another perspective.
Even Hermes is a member of it!
However, other secret organizations, and even the Church of the Seven, often use the ancient Hermetic language when performing sacrifices and rituals!
The "Twilight Hermit Society" is really high-end, grand, and classy... Klein couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
What he envied most was not that the "Twilight Hermits" had a legendary figure like Hermes who existed in human history, but that the other party held the second "blasphemous slate".
This is simply cheating! Klein sighed when he thought that the Tarot Club only had one out of twenty-second "blasphemy cards".
He returned his focus to the paper and continued to read the rest of the diary:
"Oh my God! The ordinary-looking old man sitting next to me turned out to be Hermes, who lived from the dark Second Age to the Fifth Age of Transcendental Decline!
“This organization is right!
“I see my bright future, three exclamation marks are not enough to describe my feelings at this moment!!!
"These big shots, these old men, gathered together simply to believe in the views of the Twilight Hermits that have been passed down to this day? No, that's not the case, at least not for me!
"There must be some among them who fervently believe in those ideas, purely wanting to wait for the original Creator to awaken, wanting history to progress to that point as expected. Haha, from my understanding, it's probably not awakening, but resurrection.
"But there won't be more than half of them. The rest are guys with their own purposes. They are either ambitious people like me, or they are lurking traitors. Wait a minute, I thought of a problem. After I accepted the secret invitation, I soon joined the party without being examined at all. Although the convener of the party said that in order for me to join, the members had disagreements and had to vote, and I was barely allowed with more than two-thirds of the consent, but this is not the key point. The key point is that they don't care whether I believe in the concept of dusk is approaching, and they don't mind me having various ideas.
"How do they confirm that I will not harm this organization? Could it be that there are high-sequence experts from the 'audience' path here, high-sequence experts who have reached the angel level, who have unknowingly used my verbal promise to plant a hidden psychological hint in me, and have enough confidence to discover the hidden malice of the members?
"It's possible, but it's kind of chilling to think about."
"In addition, if you mention the name of the organization to the outside world without permission, it will be detected immediately. They even gave me several former members who were purged as examples... Even if you write it down on paper, even if you use a newly invented language, it won't work!
"Let me think, let me think, Sequence 2 of the 'audience' pathway is 'insight', and Sequence 1 is 'writer', who here meets the corresponding characteristics? (Note 1)
"Well, I have a preliminary suspect, and that is the person who convened the party.
"Oh, and there's also Sequence 0 for the Audience pathway. Its name is: Visionary!
"But I don't think anyone here has reached the level of a true god, otherwise there would be no need to hide behind the scenes. Of course, they may have a Sequence 0-level divine object, such as the 'uniqueness' of a certain path. Perhaps it was this that created this real dream connecting the east and west coasts of the continent, and has the ability to react when names like 'Twilight Hermits' are mentioned.
"I didn't think too much about it at the time. I was shocked and asked other questions, such as why the word 'authority' appeared in the description of the gods. Mr. Hermes gave a wonderful answer."
Seeing this, Klein realized that this page of the diary had come to the end.
He hurriedly turned to the next page, but soon went back because the next entry was completely unconnected to the previous one.
Where was the answer? Was it on the next page of the original diary, or was it too long to write, or was it not necessary to record it in the diary? Klein was so crazy that he wanted to travel back in time, grab Russell's neck, and make him tell him Hermes' answer!
Of course, there was no emotional fluctuation on his face, nor any unnecessary body language.
"So the Sequence 0 of the Audience pathway is called Dreamer. This corresponds to Dreamer Dragon. I thought it would be a Giant Dragon... Dreamer is closer to human cognition. In other words, taking the corresponding Sequence 0 potion will not necessarily turn you into a giant dragon...
"Sequence 1 'Writer'. Just by hearing the name of the potion, I feel that it has some similarities with the characteristics of the quill pen '0-08'...
"The way the 'Twilight Hermits' gather members is through a real dream that connects the east and west coasts of the continent? The description of the 'miracle' at the beginning of the diary scared me. I thought they also had gray fog and a mysterious space above the gray fog..." Klein calmed down and found that this page of the diary provided a lot of useful information that was very important.
First of all, he knew that the ancient sage Hermes had lived at least until the Roselle period one or two hundred years ago, and was a member of that mysterious organization.
Secondly, based on Russell's unspeakable description of the organization's name, he basically confirmed that the mysterious organization was equal to the "Twilight Hermits".
Finally, he learned the names of Sequence 0, Sequence 1, and Sequence 2 of the "Audience" pathway. Although he would not be able to use them for the time being, it truly enriched his own accumulation of mysticism.
Maybe Miss Justice will ask related questions someday... She has always been very curious... Klein forced himself to forget the missing answers and turned to the last page of the diary.
While he was reading, Audrey, the Justice, habitually observed all kinds of details and keenly discovered that the "Black Emperor" card that Mr. Fool had covered on the mottled long table was gone!
Granted a favor, provided corresponding help, or exchanged items with whom? Audrey's eyes flickered slightly, trying to guess the reason.
She was more inclined to the first idea, because without the help of Mr. Fool, His followers might not be able to destroy the advent ceremony of the True Creator.
It’s a pity that Dad can’t see the files that record the details, otherwise I would know who Mr. Fool’s Favored One is. Hmm… He is of medium height, a man, wearing Loen’s most popular double-breasted long dress, and was near the Red Rose Manor at the time. Through this information investigation, we may be able to lock on to the target… But this may anger Mr. Fool, and He didn’t let me reveal the identity of His Favored One… Audrey, don’t think too much, don’t be curious, maybe you will meet and know each other in the future… “Justice” Audrey retracted her gaze.
At this time, Klein wanted to laugh because of the content of the last page of the diary:
“On March 16, I attended the aristocratic ball in this world and this country for the first time.
“Those ladies and ladies were much better than I imagined. In the novels I’ve read, there were descriptions of the medieval world where people didn’t take baths, used perfume to cover up disgusting body odor, often stepped on shit when going out, and smeared their faces with things that could easily cause heavy metal poisoning.
“But it’s different here, they love to take baths, have charming perfumes, fair skin, tight waists, and most of them have good figures.
"I overcame my nervousness and had a pleasant conversation with Viscount Drilose's youngest daughter. We talked about the achievements of my ancestors, my family's estate and my current title. Then, she politely asked to go get something to eat.
"I didn't take it seriously at the time, thinking that picking up girls requires a gradual process. However, when I went for a walk in the garden downstairs, I found her having sex with the eldest son of Count Fulais in an empty study... Shit! This was also their first meeting. Was it because I, Huang Tao Russell, wasn't handsome enough, or was it because I wasn't humorous or witty?
"How realistic! Fortunately, those ladies are all nice to me. I can sense their hidden enthusiasm, hehe."
At first, Roselle really couldn't adapt to Intis's style... According to historical records, the Gustav family declined for several generations, leaving only the baron's title and not much land and assets until Roselle became rich... I didn't expect that the emperor would also have his women taken away. Wait, I remember that Roselle mentioned in one of his diaries that he slept with Count Fules's wife... Awesome, awesome... Klein moved his eyes down and read the remaining two diaries.
They were all worthless, belonging to Roselle's record of life in the manor, and the whole content was about wanting to hunt, missing delicious food, and hoping to gain extraordinary powers and beautiful maids.
Klein leaned back slightly, letting the diary disappear from his hand, and said with a smile:
"You can start now."
"Justice" Audrey immediately looked towards the "Sun" diagonally opposite:
“Have you gotten out of that cycle?”
The Sun Derrick nodded honestly, then bowed to the head of the bronze table and said:
“Great Mr. Fool, thank you very much for your guidance. It allowed me to find the key point of ‘Angel of Destiny’ from the mural with the words ‘Redemption Rose’, and helped the Chief break the cycle of fate.”
What "Angel of Destiny"... I know nothing about it... Klein, the confused "Fool", responded with a smile:
"good."
Note 1: Don’t rush to talk about the “Dragon of Fantasy” and the “Dragon of Nightmare”, there is an important setting hidden there.
