Looking at the copper-green cross in his hand, Klein was certain that it could at least correspond to a Level 1 Seal.
In addition to the purification effect, this magical item also possesses demigod-level spells in the "Sun" field, such as "Yangyan". If its negative effect is used well, it can solve many problems. For example, it can help some people who have strayed into the extraordinary world and hope to get rid of madness to return to normal, and help people who have taken an extra dose of magic potion to extract the corresponding extraordinary characteristics - this requires precise grasp of the time node, otherwise it is easy to directly reduce the level of one's own sequence.
Of course, the body and soul transformed by the magic potion will definitely conflict with the nature of ordinary people from time to time. The extraordinary people who rely on the copper-green cross to exit this "circle" will undoubtedly have certain sequelae. The specific situation varies depending on the different paths, sequences and individual details.
This made Klein sigh that this was the most useful and valuable negative effect he had ever seen.
The only problem for him was that he couldn't carry this copper-green cross for a long time, even if he gave it to a secret doll. That would cause the secret doll's extraordinary characteristics to be released and its level to drop. After becoming a secret doll, he could no longer take potions to advance because his spirit was essentially dead.
As for the puppets transformed from ordinary creatures, wearing this cross for a long time will "praise the sun" and get out of control.
It can only be placed on the gray fog and taken out when needed... For the "Weird Mage", this impact is not that great, after all, he doesn't perform unprepared... Then confirm whether it corresponds to the "Darknessless One". If so, wait until the little "Sun" digests the "Priest of Light" potion and sell it to him. I believe that the chief of the "Six-Man Council" of Silver City will not be stingy in exchanging it for an equivalent seal. The "Sun" path is obviously more suitable for the "God-Forsaken Land" than any other path... Klein thought in a good mood and put the copper-green cross back on the mottled long table.
He did not confirm it immediately because he planned to do it after returning to 160 Böklund Street. At that time, he would also use "dream divination" to figure out the origin of the seal - Meige Manor was too close to the underground ruins, and it might be under the observation of the royal angels or even Adam. During the experiment, if he triggered some changes and caused fluctuations in the gray fog, the biggest secret might be discovered.
"Even if this seal does not correspond to the 'No Dark One', it must belong to the 'Sun' path. At most, it is mixed with some other extraordinary characteristics. No, this will be rejected. The symbol of the 'Eternal Blazing Sun' Church is a holy emblem made of gold, which looks like an abstract sun and has nothing to do with the cross. Well, after excluding this possibility, the only ones related to the 'Sun' field are the Silver City Creator, the Ancient Sun God, Adam and Amon's father, and the suspected traverser...
"The fact that it appeared in Viscount Stratford's hands indicates that it is the Twilight Hermits who are cooperating with the royal family, and the Psychological Alchemy Society is just a cover? Of course, there are too many other possibilities. Maybe the Augustus family collected it themselves. As an angel family with a great reputation and a long history in the Fourth Epoch, it is normal for them to collect some items of the ancient sun god...
“If this seal was really provided by Adam, could this be His arrangement?
"Faced with the witch Triss and her companions who were clearly involved with the evil god, it was very reasonable for Viscount Stratford to choose this cross that was good at purification and give up other items. When he decided to eliminate Sherman, he was not sure whether the other party had been contaminated by the evil god. He was afraid of accidents and did not use direct attack methods. Instead, he wasted time to activate this seal. It was also reasonable... Yes, it was indeed very reasonable. I don't know if there are any traces of human arrangement...
"When I think about it, my '0-08' phobia is about to strike again... By the way, 'Magician' and Miss 'Judgment' have discussed Adam in private, involving the 'Forsaken Land of God', 'Giant King's Court', and the Angel King...
"This... Even if it was really arranged by Adam, what is the meaning of "He" giving this item to Miss Magician and Miss Judgement?"
Klein's scalp was tingling from thinking about it. He calmed himself down and decided to return to Böklund Street to try to verify it again.
He returned to the real world without delay.
As for the items on Qiunas Kilger's body, he had not relied on the gray fog to improve them before. He had already roughly grasped the specific situation with his own divination ability.
In addition to the "Concerto of Light and Shadow" and the underground ruins door-opening badge taken away by Arianna, the leader of the Ascetic Monks of the Church of Evernight, Qonas Kilger also has two magical items:
One is the "Desperate Scream of Revere" mentioned by "Magic Mirror" Arrodes. It originated from a failed sacrifice and has two usage modes. One is normal shooting, which is less powerful than the air cannon, and the other is machine gun shooting, which can fire a large number of bullets in one or two seconds. Both methods have their own "Desperate Scream", which has a certain impact on the demigods at the saint level, but not too much. Of course, not all demigods can withstand such attacks, just like Klein himself, who does not have a perverted enough body or defense to resist head-on;
Another item is called "Lucky Clover", which looks very simple. It is a four-leaf clover made into a talisman. Its ability is to allow the wearer to accumulate a certain probability for the next success after each failure. The negative effect is to magnify the wearer's human flaws.
Klein's comment on it is that it would be better to change it to "the mother of success."
These two magical items had no practical value to Klein, so they were still kept by the secret puppet, Qonas Kilger.
And this demigod-level secret puppet is his greatest gain:
The Lawyer's keen grasp and use of loopholes in the rules, his guidance and persuasion of the target; the Barbarian's strength and physique to break the rules; the Briber's "bribery"; the Corrupted Baron's "distortion"; the Chaos Mentor's "chaos"; the "Gift", "Magnification" and "Utilization" of the Fallen Count are all very good abilities. If it weren't for the detailed intelligence obtained in advance by Arrodes through the "Magic Mirror", and if he hadn't made sufficient preparations, formulated a plan, and obtained the secret assistance of the angels, Klein would not have been absolutely sure to keep Qiunas Kilger even if he had the "Smuggler" and other items.
In fact, compared to turning into a secret puppet, using "Creeping Hunger" to herd Qonas Kilger would be more covert and less likely to be discovered. But in that case, there would only be three types of "Fallen Count" extraordinary abilities that could be used... Klein thought as he walked out of the bathroom and returned to the lawn where the bonfire dinner was held.
On the lawn, Senator Macht stood in front of the grill, performing East Balam-style barbecue with sweat on his forehead. Hazel stood a little further away, watching with bright eyes. He no longer had the arrogance of the past, and his face even had some black marks from coal smoke. Portland Momont held a glass of wine, smiling as he watched the "young people" busying around, and from time to time he picked up a skewer and took a bite of a piece.
Seeing this scene, Klein's mood suddenly became calm.
…………
On Sunday afternoon, the group who had gone on vacation to the outskirts of Backlund returned to Böklund Street.
Before dinner, Klein once again entered the gray fog and picked up the copper-green cross.
He first confirmed that this cross corresponded to Sequence 4 "No Darkness" of the "Sun" Path, and uninspiringly named it "No Darkness Cross". Then he picked up the pen and wrote a new divination statement:
“The origin of this cross.”
Klein did not directly divine whether there was any trace of arrangement in the acquisition of the "Darkless Cross". He was afraid that it would point to Adam and arouse his vigilance. He planned to start from the origin of this seal and investigate the specific situation. If the previous and previous owners of the "Darkless Cross" were Adam, the truth of the matter would undoubtedly lean towards "deliberate arrangement".
Putting down the pen, Klein looked down at the copper-green cross in his hand and exhaled with a serious expression:
"I'm going to start looking for death again..."
He suspected that this "Darkless Cross" originated from the creator of Silver City, the ancient sun god, who was a more powerful god than the ancient gods such as the "Dragon of Imagination". The damage he suffered from spying on him must be greater than when Klein divined "Groselle's Travels" before.
However, things are different now. Klein is now a Sequence 4 "Weird Mage" and a demigod. The damage he can withstand and the mysterious space abilities above the gray fog he can mobilize are far better than when he was at Sequence 5.
After taking a few seconds to calm himself down, he leaned back in his chair, holding the "No Dark Cross" in one hand and the paper in the other, and repeated the divination sentence in a low voice.
Over and over again, Klein used the meditative state as a springboard to enter a deep dream.
In the misty world, there appeared a building that was poured layer by layer of "gray and white" and its original shape could not be seen clearly. It was located in a dark environment, and there seemed to be monsters lurking around it.
A crack appeared on the surface of the gray building, and a pale hand stretched out.
A figure walked out. It was a man wearing a black clergy robe with a silver cross hanging on his chest.
The man's hair was not long and was mostly black, but the roots were light yellow and golden. His eyes were pure gold, his skin was fair, his features were deep, and his eye sockets were sunken, which was quite similar to the current people of the Northern Continent.
He took two steps forward, reached out and grasped the ordinary-looking cross. His eyes gradually cleared up from the confused state, and the corners of his mouth curled up a little bit.
He then spoke in a low voice:
“Let there be light!”
In an instant, the darkness around the gray and white building was pierced by the bright light, revealing its true appearance.
This is a deep valley where you can't see above, and endless light fills every corner here.
Thus, there was light in this world.
The screen then flashed and jumped into the next scene:
A drop of golden blood, blooming with light and heat, dripped down and landed on the silver cross.
Following the blood upwards, there seemed to be a figure made of pure light, his face that could not be seen clearly was facing upwards, and there was tangible pain and distortion overflowing.
He looked over, above the gray fog, to Klein who was sitting in the Fool's high-back chair. The deep voice sounded again:
"Mysterious..."
Suddenly, Klein's thoughts exploded without warning.
PS: Klein's current behavior is very obvious, and his thoughts are easy to be read. Isn't the reason clearly written before? Put down the thick mask and don't disguise unless it is necessary.
