Lord of Mysteries: Yao Guang

"Didn't I say that I would only let you walk around the hotel?"

Klein looked at Skylark across from him with a straight face. His new marionettes, Enzo and Off, stood behind him, each occupying the left and right sides.

Klein glanced back and cleared his throat. He always felt like a villain and a mafia brother surrounded by his younger brothers.

Skylark squatted on the top of the small box with ventilation holes. Although it lowered its head, judging from its swaying eyes, it showed that it was not introspecting at all.

Klein let out a long sigh. Although Norns seemed well-behaved, he always felt that he was becoming more and more out of control.

Klein looked at his new marionette, because Enzo was the "winner" of Sequence Five. After transforming him into a marionette, Klein had a better understanding of the "monster" path, which also piqued his curiosity. To the extreme.

What did they see in themselves?

When in doubt, the "divineer" will of course ask the divination first.

"Do you want to stay away?" Klein looked at Norns.

Skylark looked at him blankly, just called out, and still stayed on the top of the box without moving.

This bird cannot be treated according to common sense. Klein couldn't remember how many times this was, he muttered this sentence in his heart.

After tossing the coin and getting a "positive" result, Klein no longer hesitated and immediately built a "spiritual wall" and made all preparations beforehand.

He asked the marionette to turn around and face him, and then looked in his direction with the help of Enzo's eyes.

The gray mist slowly spread, revealing a majestic blue-black light door in the depths. The door was made up of tightly packed worm light balls, which were covered with complex symbols and patterns. This was the last scene that Klein remembered.

His vision went dark, and he fainted completely amid a scream-like buzzing sound.

The gentle light seemed to slowly fall in front of my eyes.

When Klein was thinking this, he tried to blink again, only to realize that he had not opened his eyes.

He didn't know how long he had been unconscious, but the waves of pain coming from his forehead were waking up Klein from the daze of unconsciousness. His brain started to work again. He slowly realized that something was jumping on his head. Jump.

"Norns, stop..."

When he spoke, Klein was even startled by his hoarse voice.

Knowns' anxious chirps kept ringing in his ears. Klein finally opened his eyes again, and what he saw was a piece of hair that was slowly falling, being torn off from his forehead.

Klein sighed heavily, and had the idea of ​​closing his eyes and squinting for a while. Although the faceless man didn't care about this small problem, the bird was becoming more and more like a "naughty child"...

Norns jumped heavily on his forehead again, and his thin claws scratched between Klein's furrowed eyebrows. Klein had to raise his weak arms to drive the little guy aside.

Klein lay quietly for a few seconds, then sat up and casually comforted Skylark next to him:

"I'm fine. Aren't you already awake? It's just that the situation is more serious than I expected, huh..."

He couldn't help but let out a gasp because of the severe pain all over his body.

This suit of clothing is no longer available. There are cracking wounds everywhere on Klein's body. When he lowered his head to check, he could see that in the flesh and blood that had been torn from the inside, there were twisted granulations that were constantly trembling, as if they were working hard. The maggots were squirming and trying to be squeezed out of his body, making Klein himself feel uncomfortable.

Earlier, Enzo looked directly at Klein on the stairs and let out a miserable howl. At the same time, many white snake scale patterns appeared on Enzo's hands and cheeks. Until Klein made him into a marionette, Enzo completely " "Quiet", those signs of loss of control slowly subsided.

It seemed that the same thing happened to him.

Klein rubbed his eyes. There was nothing wrong with his eyes. At that time, Enzo was covering his eyes and scratching his eyelids, wanting to gouge his eyeballs out, which made Klein feel lingering fear.

Because he had already worn the "Blood Flower" that had a restorative effect, the horrific injuries on his body did not expand further. On the contrary, after Klein regained consciousness, he speeded up the recovery process because he consciously used his spirituality.

Klein raised his hand to wipe his forehead. Because of his screams and loss of control, and then fell into coma again, Knowns rushed forward anxiously and tore out several clumps of Klein's hair.

Fortunately, it doesn't matter to him. As long as he activates the ability of the faceless man, it will grow back soon.

The chair he was sitting on has been overturned and rolled aside, and the round table next to him has also been knocked down. However, the "spiritual wall" is still there, and it should not affect the situation outside the guest room. It is only in the small room very close to him. An exception occurred within the scope.

Klein sat on the ground, taking a slow and deep breath. He casually glanced at the time. It took less than a minute for him to truly lose consciousness.

Klein adjusted his breathing and spirituality until his wounds were almost healed, and did not rush to stand up from the ground.

Knowns flew to his hand and tapped Klein's fingers hard twice.

Because Skylark used too much force, Klein subconsciously retracted his hand:

"I'm really fine. I'm ready. This result is still acceptable. Don't be so cruel..."

Then he saw something shiny on his left hand.

It was a gold ring set with rubies. Klein stared at it for a few seconds, and then he suddenly realized. He finally remembered the negative effects of this ring. It would randomly make the wearer give up deep thinking and become like a stupid and ignorant beast. .

Klein quickly took the ring off his hand, and Norns called out twice more before flying onto his shoulder as usual.

"So what you see through Enzo's eyes is that light, right?"

Klein vaguely remembered that at the last moment he seemed to see a group of light entering his field of vision and circling twice. There was no other possibility except this little bird.

Knowns didn't say anything, and just looked at Klein quietly. There were no impurities in his pale eyes, and there were no clear and ups and downs of emotions.

Klein sighed softly: "Exactly the same light, no difference at all... So are you Zoya?"

Knowns shouted in confusion, his eyes were dull and timid, and he was still confused about Klein's sudden accident. It was obvious that he didn't understand what Klein was talking about.

It doesn't look like it, at least not from Norns.

If the "monster" path can see a little light in Norns, what about Esther? Will only her hair glow, or will they see the light that belongs to Zoya herself, just like the vision on me?

Klein was thinking this, he raised his hand with blood on his sleeve and gently stroked Skylark's head.

Norns rubbed his fingers, his eyes brightening.

——

If the letter cannot be delivered directly to the recipient, then storage seems to be a feasible option, at least for now, this is what Klein has decided.

He just had some trouble with what to write.

If this letter falls into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, will Esther encounter a more terrible danger?

Klein can't help but think in this direction. He also envies Esther a little. Her freewheeling attitude always shows a kind of blind optimism...

Even if it’s too blind sometimes.

Klein pinched the bridge of his nose hard, and tapped the edge of the letter paper with the hand holding the pen. After a moment to collect his thoughts, he let the words actually fall on the paper.

Everything is in Chinese.

This is one of the safest ways of communication that Klein can come up with.

At least as far as he knew, apart from the two parties, there was really no living person in the world who knew the writing of their hometown, which could avoid the risk of this letter being read to the greatest extent.

If someone discovered it, they would probably just regard this letter as a handwritten page of Russell's diary, and it would be difficult to tell the difference.

Klein's "faking" was more detailed. He did not use the writing format of a letter, but imitated the format of Russell's diary:

"June 26th, to my friend Li Xing. It has been more than ten days since you lost news. I don't know where you are now. I don't know if you are okay. There was an accident in the gray hall. , that ball of light that we all know is almost out of control, and given your sudden disappearance, I have enough reason to worry that this matter is related to you."

"At the Tarot meeting, Zoya's light condensed into a human figure and took your place. I hope this is not a sign. Zoya seems to have a special connection with something deep in gray, but I don't know what it is. We The person who convened the joint meeting didn’t inform me, but when I get promoted, I might be able to find out the relevant things.”

"I hope you can see this letter as soon as possible. No matter when you see it, please take the time to reply to me while ensuring your own safety. Please be sure to tell me your situation and be extremely careful. Especially be careful of the 'audience'."

"I will be waiting patiently. I look forward to hearing from you, your friend."

Klein folded the letter paper and stuffed it into the envelope, then arranged the ceremony and summoned the puppy with pure black short hair, a grin from the corners of its mouth to just below its ears, and evil flames burning in its eye sockets.

The puppy jumped out of the gap in the spirit world and jumped around Klein affectionately twice, enjoying Klein's caress on the head. However, after seeing the letter in Klein's hand, the puppy's ears immediately drooped. .

Klein patted its head: "Don't worry, I'm not asking you to send it out right away. Wait until you can contact her again and give her this letter, okay?"

The puppy nodded repeatedly, swung its tail, took the letter from Klein, and jumped back into the gap in the spirit world.

Klein's dejected mood didn't last long before another crack in the spiritual world opened in the room.

Azik Eggers walked out and appeared directly next to the Marionette who kept the bronze whistle. He looked around the room with some confusion before looking at Klein:

"Are you ready?"

According to the agreement, Mr. Azik found Klein. After hearing the visions and divination dreams that Klein had foreseen, he prepared to take Klein with him to find "Hell Admiral" Ludwell to investigate the matter of the Death Ring.

At the same time, go and take a look at the tomb located somewhere in the Raging Sea.
