Lord of Mysteries: Yao Guang

"Thank you again for your help, Mr. Fool." Banabei was very excited when he thought about the feeling of something breaking. He had an absurd yet reasonable guess.

That absurd hope that was originally impossible became possible in the presence of a true God because of His great power. At this time, Barnabas confirmed the meaning of that "hope" and his spiritual intuition guided him. A road, a way of life.

He seemed to have gotten rid of the seal placed by the immortal old guy.

But before returning to the real world, Banabei could not completely confirm this. He did not dare to accept the possibility of freedom. In front of the "Fool", Banabei must restrain his overly excited attitude.

Unlike Barnabas, who was full of joy, "The Fool" was staring at the high-backed chair behind Barnabas, looking at the symbol that was exactly the same as his own. He thought that the note on the previous note was clearly Esther's handwriting, and the notes on the other side were the same as the information Esther mailed...

Klein was a little distracted, but he quickly clarified his thoughts. As the saying goes, "It's all here."

Anyway, one more person means one more channel and stable development. Since Esther gave her the honorary name, can this be considered a member she wants to introduce? If I hadn't seen a strange curse on him, I wouldn't have decided so quickly...

“The Fool” nodded: “Of course, ‘The Fool’ is just a codename, centered around Tarot cards.”

Barnabas suddenly remembered the strange "thief", and he immediately came up with another guess. It was because Esther was a member of this meeting that he could remember her?

So when she first gave her this honorary name, she just guessed that "The Fool" would be able to help me, and she had already foreseen this day?

In fact, not at all.

Esther was just taking a chance, maybe "The Fool" would be willing to help Barnabas, but she had never thought so far ahead, and she was not a person who was good at strategizing.

Barnabas retracted his thoughts and subconsciously wanted to raise his head, but considering the identity of the other party, he just stared at the long table in front of "The Fool": "Code name? Can I also join this meeting?"

"We are just doing some simple trade and message exchange. Whether you want to join the meeting, you have to ask yourself, do you want to join?"

Without thinking, Barnabas replied, "I want to join!"

"The Fool" snapped his fingers, and a deck of tarot cards appeared in front of Banabei, which surprised Banabei again.

"I have excluded tarot cards with code names. You can draw the one that belongs to you."

Banabei touched the bottom card directly, and he suddenly realized that his fate had completely changed the moment he read out the honorable name.

Or perhaps, it was earlier, from a specific point in time, that the future became blurry and chaotic.

He raised his fingers slightly and turned over the front of the tarot card. An exaggerated smile hung on the corner of Banabei's mouth, contrasting with the card with sharp horns and bat wings.

The leisurely voice of "The Fool" came: "Then, you are welcome to join the Tarot Club, Mr. Devil."

——

In this Tarot meeting, everyone greeted everyone under the elegant guidance of "Justice", and Mr. "Devil" observed everyone's characteristics and temperament.

Then I looked at "Lover" a few more times.

There was no way around it. She was sitting at the end of the table like "The World", and she had a distinct and almost physical image, which was enough for the "Devil" to recognize her appearance.

When Esther saw Barnabas twitching his chin at her, she knew that he had recognized her.

This is really...

It seems that he has not completely forgotten me, which confirms my previous guess. It is because of his contact with Gray Fog that Klein can always remember me.

Esther put her hands on her knees, sitting in a very regular posture, pretending not to see the "devil's" provocative movements.

The addition of new members is just a small episode, and the normal Tarot session process still needs to be carried out. The extra "blasphemous card" in front of "The Fool" has attracted everyone's attention, but it has not yet reached the point where it can be seen. Questioning session.

There were only three pages of Russell's diary submitted by "Justice" today. When she raised her hand to speak, Barnabas glanced at her head clearly.

Esther always felt like he was glaring at her, why? Because I didn't tell him about it? This is a cross-world secret. Even if Mr. Fool knows about it, Esther has no intention of telling anyone else.

"The Fool" turned the first two pages casually, until the third page, when his sitting posture changed slightly.

Soon, after finishing reading, the meeting host raised his head and looked at "Justice": "What do you want in exchange?"

"Justice" seems to have thought about the reward he wants early on: "Dear Mr. Fool, is the extra card in your hand the 'blasphemy card'? Which one?"

"The Fool" smiled slightly and turned the card over, revealing the bright "Sequence Zero" on it: "Tyrant."

Esther subconsciously looked at the Hanged Man, her eyes scanning the symbols on his high-backed chair.

But Barnabas was far more shocked than everyone here. No matter how much he disliked Russell and Intis, he had always grown up in that country.

The wonderful story of Russell is a legend that every child born in Intis will learn about - even today, in some small towns in remote locations, older people are still more willing to call King Louis King. Russell, because that was the glorious era that they cherished.

The "blasphemous card" is a special secret behind this legend. Only those organizations with sufficient specifications can possibly understand the strange objects left by the great emperor.

"The Fool" not only collected "Tyrant", he also clearly had another card in his hand.

Barnabas was a little confused. He suspected that he had been wandering overseas for so long that he had lost his keen sense of news. He actually knew nothing about the reputation of this secret organization.

What Mr. "Devil" doesn't know is that Tarot Club really doesn't have much reputation.

Esther had a completely different idea. She was a little curious about what the "Stealer's" sequence zero was.

But soon, this idea was eliminated by herself. With Amon here, it was already remarkable that the Beyonders of this sequence were still alive. If they were promoted... they would probably end up wearing a monocle easily.

Esther thought guiltily.

The "Fool"'s gaze swept over the "Hermit", which made the "Hermit" subconsciously tense up:

"Dear Mr. Fool, there is no new Russell diary this time."

"The Fool" nodded: "It's your turn."

For some reason, Esther always felt that "The Fool's" gaze at the end of the table was inquiring, but she was not sure whether "The Fool" was looking at herself or the "world" next to her.

"The World" was the first to propose a deal, asking "The Hanged Man" to help him build something with the characteristics of "Ocean Singer", but this was just the beginning, and then "The World" began to sell the same "Black Emperor" sequence five The "Chaos Tutor", and the extraordinary characteristics of the "Druid".

Everyone fell silent, including Banabei, who even subconsciously touched his neck and realized that he was just promoted enough to be on the trading table.

This meeting before God is a bit too scary...

Barnabas looked at the "world" sitting next to his "lover", his hands subconsciously pressed on his chest, and the idea of ​​smoking became stronger and stronger.

Afterwards, "Justice" and "The Hanged Man" reached a deal on the psychedelic bell tree fruit. The transaction amount was "two thousand gold pounds", which allowed Barnabas to obtain further information. Not everyone here is a sequence five. Or like Esther, sequence four.

Esther also sought help from the "Hanged Man", who promised to find an informant to help her make a false identity as a "young boy". There was someone he knew in Pulitzer Port, and she could pay fifty gold pounds directly. to third parties.

But when "The Hermit" mentioned the blood of mythical creatures, Esther heard that the reward she could provide to "The World" actually included seeing the "Wheel of Fortune" card once.

"The World" asked to meet the "Queen of Mystery".

The subsequent transactions were just that "Magician" and "Moon" each made requests for specific materials, and then entered into the usual communication process.

"Justice" has always had a strong curiosity, coupled with her positive personality and motivation, which prompted her to make up her mind to ask about the characteristics of "Chaos Tutor". Because she wanted to buy the extraordinary items she had made, she had to first think about how to explain it to her family. After all, the "Black Emperor" path might involve the power of the royal family and the military.

While raising his hand, the soft and cheerful voice of "Justice" sounded: "Can I know where the characteristics of 'Chaos Mentor' come from? If it involves secrets, you don't have to answer."

"The World" chuckled hoarsely, still so eerie: "It comes from a curly-haired baboon."

Why did this person suddenly make a joke and a pun? No, you must not laugh. This is in front of "The Fool"... Esther's eyes wandered and she turned away from "The World".

In the dragon-worshiping village shared by "Justice", when an archaeological team was going crazy and killing people, Esther noticed that the "Devil"'s sitting posture gradually became more upright, no longer lazily reclining behind the high-backed chair. .

However, compared to "The Hermit" and "The Hanged Man", it was "The World" that finally gave "Justice" a more detailed explanation:

"The custom of dragon worship is very helpful in stabilizing the state of the spiritual dragon. You can make people pay attention to this aspect. If there are large-scale changes, it means that the spiritual dragon will create similar things in other places. tradition of."

He seemed to pause intentionally: "This involves a higher level of secrecy. If there are any changes, please remain cautious."

Before "Justice" opened his mouth to thank "The World" for its explanation and reminder, "Devil" cleared his throat: "Ahem, this eldest lady, this kind of behavior is not only beneficial to the dragon. In fact, high-sequence extraordinary people are all Use corresponding means to stabilize your own state and fight against the madness brought about by the extraordinary power itself."

The moment he heard the title of "Miss", "Justice" relied on the calmness of the "audience" to prevent himself from clenching his fists.

She will have a nickname in Tarot, not a frivolous nickname like "Miss". Mr. "Devil"'s choice of words is really uncomfortable!

"Justice" gradually understood why "Lover" showed his dislike for "Devil". It was very likely that the two people knew each other in real life, and Mr. "Devil" was really annoying when he talked.

However, what the "Devil" said seemed to have other meanings. Everyone heard what he meant, but the "Devil" just closed his mouth and stopped saying a word. He put his hands on his chest contentedly, Enjoying everyone's questioning looks.

Very good, now everyone feels the disgust of the "devil".

The corners of Esther's mouth twitched twice, but in the end she did not speak, because she herself had little understanding of the concept of "anchor".
