When entering the tomb of the "Black Emperor", Bernadette vaguely "saw" a black shadow, but after she left the state of information torrent and reconstructed her body with vast and pure knowledge, she did not sense anything, as if what she had just experienced was just an illusion.

This "mysterious queen" did not rush into the mausoleum. She stayed where she was and carefully looked at the surrounding situation.

Without using her ability to "see the secrets", everything here appeared clearly before her eyes:

The interior of the "Black Emperor's" mausoleum is completely empty. There is nothing inside except the dark walls and the high platform in the center.

On the platform, there was a chair that seemed to be prepared for giants. It seemed to be made of iron, and the surface was engraved with complex and twisted strange patterns. The top of the backrest extended upward in the shape of a crown.

At this moment, there was no figure on this heavy and huge chair, as if it was waiting for its emperor to return.

Bernadette was about to take a tentative step towards the platform when she suddenly found that her body was completely unable to move, as if she was firmly bound to the spot by invisible shackles.

Then, a pair of illusory and sacred white wings naturally spread out behind her, as if she was passively resisting something.

The next second, the white feathers on the pairs of angel wings fell one by one, and deformed, thin, hairy limbs grew in mid-air, and the gaps created by the overlapping feathers opened one after another, as if turning into countless eyes.

The deformed feathers then let out a crisp laugh, and the "cluck, cluck" sound echoed inside the mausoleum.

They all came to life and turned into miniature "winged people".

This reminded Bernadette of some fairy tales her father had told her, in which there were always elves no bigger than a thumb.

As the thought flashed through her mind, Bernadette felt her right eye begin to itch.

The eyelashes of that eye grew rapidly and turned into tiny arms, which stretched out to her face and tried hard to pull out the eyeball.

"I see it! I see it!" The blood vessels in Bernadette's right eye bulged and she uttered a childish and cheerful voice on her own, as if she had gained her own intelligence and consciousness.

This is also a kind of "rebirth".

Almost at the same time, Bernadette's left ear drooped down suddenly, covering her ear canal.

"I don't want to listen! I don't want to listen!" the ear shouted loudly in a slightly sharp voice.

If Bernadette hadn't used her spiritual sense to perceive, she would have thought that there was a little girl next to her, covering her ears and stamping her feet and screaming.

Without giving her any room to buffer, the "Sage's Headband" in the center of her forehead automatically separated from her body and floated into the air.

Countless cold lights flashed across the surface of the vertical eye inlaid with these "diamonds", as if many miniature eyes had grown there.

And in every eye, Bernadette's figure was reflected.

The "Sage's Front Ornament" also acquired certain living properties.

Just as this "0" level sealed object was about to awaken and bring some influence to the target, a pale, slender, illusory hand reached out and grasped it.

The living qualities of the Sage's Forehead Ornament quickly dissipated, as if it had reached the end of its life.

The hand that was obviously female and carried a cold and pale meaning came from behind Bernadette. At some point, a figure with only the upper body appeared there.

The figure grew out from Bernadette's back and was almost transparent and quite unreal.

“She” was wearing the same clothes as Bernadette, and the same tricorn hat with feathers. Her eyes were as blue as the reflection of the sea. She was exactly Bernadette herself, the part of her spirit that had emerged from her body.

However, the half-figure of Bernadette was wearing a pale mask with a metallic luster.

This mask only has holes for the eyes, with no gaps elsewhere, making Bernadette's shadow appear extremely cold and noble, but lacking the breath of the living.

This is the third and final "0" level sealed item she owns. It was made by Emperor Roselle after he returned from the Southern Continent in his later years. It is called "Pale Death".

Its negative effect is that it causes the wearer to die little by little until he turns into a corpse and becomes its slave.

At this time, Bernadette took advantage of this point to suppress the abnormal activation in her body.

Just as this half-body shadow emerged, her right eye became quiet, and the eyelashes that had grown thicker and longer into arms withered and fell off one by one.

Her ears also stopped making any sound and slowly opened, returning to normal.

Without such suppression, Bernadette's facial features, arms, and legs would break away from her one after another and flee to "freedom."

After initially stabilizing her physical condition, Bernadette took a tentative step forward, but she was still unable to make any movement and could only control the half-body spirit.

After thinking for a moment, she asked the spirit behind her to take out a ritual silver dagger from her pocket, then leaned over and drew a circle across the middle of her right boot.

With a crackling sound, the leather boot quickly became half shorter.

Then, Bernadette used half of her spirit body to tear the pants apart at the left knee, cut off a corner of her coat and shirt, and plucked a few feathers from one side of her cocked hat.

Such an attempt seems to have nothing to do with the extraordinary, just like a willful and rebellious girl who wants to dress in a way that is different from the normal aesthetic.

However, as Bernadette completed this series of movements and stepped forward cautiously, she actually found that her body was able to move and she no longer felt restrained.

The invisible suppression disappeared in an instant, and the tomb of the "Black Emperor" seemed to have accepted Bernadette like this.

Who would have thought that ordinary people could handle this kind of abnormality.

Moreover, Bernadette suspected that the more she used her extraordinary abilities to fight, the deeper the impact would be.

This was because she had just had the feeling that she was facing an invisible god. Only by "pleasing" the other party's aesthetic taste could she be forgiven. Otherwise, she could only rely on the authority of Sequence 0 to bypass it.

In addition, fortunately, Bernadette was not only a knowledgeable "occultist", but also had a very in-depth understanding of the "Black Emperor" path. She knew what the authority of this field roughly included, and understood that it represented the shadow of order and a distortion of normal order.

So Bernadette started with her own clothes and initially distorted the normal order of her body, and then she gained the recognition and acceptance of the invisible god.

"Well, in events related to the mysticism, knowledge and ideas are sometimes more useful than abilities... In the situation just now, any resistance would be seen as a provocation to the internal order of the mausoleum, which would trigger unpredictable and absolutely terrifying changes. Once the crux of the problem is found, the negative impact can be easily resolved..." Klein nodded slightly above the gray fog. He learned a lot from the "Queen of Mystery".

Although he was already one level higher than the other party, and was even equal to the Angel King within the "Source Castle", and had experienced many major events, he had grown too fast after all, and was still lacking in many details. Now he could make up for it through this kind of observation.

After taking a step forward, Bernadette began to follow her spiritual intuition and walked towards the platform in the center and the huge empty chair on the platform.

One step, two steps, three steps, and suddenly, a breeze blew behind her neck.

The wind was so cold and eerie that it made Bernadette's body numb.

At this moment, she seemed to feel a dark shadow appear behind her.

Silently, her long chestnut hair parted on the back of her head, revealing a pair of eyes growing on her scalp.

Those eyes were almost transparent, cold and emotionless, without eyelashes.

"The Eye of Prying Eyes"!

The eyes moved slightly and saw that the shadowy curtain of the mysterious world had become noticeably distorted inside the mausoleum.

However, it did not discover the dark shadow, nor did it find the source of the cold wind.

Just as Bernadette tried to close her "eyes of mystery" to reduce the possibility of accidents, a chilly and cold breeze suddenly blew through her mind.

Her thoughts became more and more active and out of control, developing in a direction that was beyond her control.

This seems to be a trend, an irreversible, rapidly changing trend.

Without hesitation, taking advantage of the few seconds she had to think, Bernadette asked the half-spirit behind her to take off the pale mask.

Then, she put the "Pale Death" mask directly on her face, and the half-spirit shrank back into her body and became one with her.

From this second on, Bernadette's mind will gradually die along with her body, but her thoughts are uncontrollably active and becoming confused bit by bit.

These two contradictory states offset each other, forming a fragile and delicate balance, which helped Bernadette regain her ability to think.

For Bernadette, the negative effects of "Pale Death" are more useful at this moment than the extraordinary effects of the film itself.

Maintaining that balance, Bernadette took a few more steps forward.

During this process, she always felt that there was a black shadow hovering around her, but she couldn't find it.

After thinking for several seconds, Bernadette's blue eyes became deep and out of focus again.

She was trying to predict the consequences of a choice she had made.

Soon, the corresponding picture appeared in front of her eyes:

Putting on the "Sage's Headband" again, she once again transformed herself into a pure and complex torrent of information, bypassing the obstacles and heading for the high platform in the center.

However, just as they approached there, the torrent of information suddenly collapsed and lost its order. Based on different cores, it reorganized into several Bernadettes. There was a little girl in a cake skirt, a tall girl, a girl full of melancholy and confusion, a lady with a distorted and painful expression, and a resolute queen who became calm.

The prophetic scene disappeared in an instant, and Bernadette's eyes regained focus.

At this moment, she saw the dark shadow.

It was standing right in front of her, no more than a fist away from her!

The face made of pure shadow completely occupied her field of vision.
