Lord of Mysteries: Yao Guang

The rickety carriage passed through the street. In the carriage, the middle-aged man with gray hair, an ordinary face, and exceptionally bright black eyes coughed twice before calling the driver to stop.

Klein obtained the hair of the deceased provided by Miss Magician yesterday because Triss Chike, the witch with a special identity, wanted to establish contact with Mr. Door and asked him for the hair of the descendant of the Abraham family.

Accordingly, Miss "Magician" also made a request, hoping that the transaction partner of "The World" could help ask how to remove the curse on the descendants of the Abraham family.

Although Klein tried to find the man who was seduced by Triss through the messenger lady, his plan to peek into the mirror world through the gray fog and try to locate the man failed, which made him miss the chance to catch Triss. Opportunity to find your true identity.

After much consideration, Klein decided to go to St. Samuel's Church and inform the "Goddess of the Night" about the matter through prayer. If something unexpected happened during the communication between Triss and "Mr. Door" during the full moon, at least there would be Divine attention comes to put a bumper on the matter.

After all, when he exiled the King of Angels who was closest to the true God, the "Night Goddess" contributed. It was precisely because he knew this that he dared to make this deal with Triss.

In fact, he could have done this in the hotel where he was staying, but he came to St. Samuel's Church specifically just to pretend to be a stranger passing by Berklund Street and secretly observe the situation in the surrounding area.

Since Hazel herself is a "thief" and the people around her have encountered Amon's parasitism, she has a higher possibility of encountering the "thief" who will appear from nowhere. Angel of Time”. Klein was very wary of this, and at least in his arrangement, he returned to Burklund Street every once in a while to do a hidden inspection, which was safer for nearby residents.

For Klein himself, it was the same - he discovered Amon's trace earlier, so he could find a way to contact his acquaintances and drive him away.

After letting the Marionette pray to the "Poseidon", he checked the safety of Berklund Street through the gray fog, and confirmed that everything was OK, Klein returned to the real world.

Entering St. Samuel's Church and stepping into the quiet large prayer hall, like most other churches in the church, the narrow stained windows here only let in part of the dim light. The dim environment does not bring tension, but It makes the body and mind as peaceful as a deep sleep.

Klein took off the top hat on his head and walked to the last row of benches, which was very close to the aisle and facing the altar at the front.

What is enshrined on the altar is not a statue, but a huge dark holy emblem. On a pure black background, bright stars surround it, surrounding the half-bright crimson moon.

The purpose of using abstract symbols is to blur the image and prevent the "anchor" from adversely affecting the perception of the god itself.

When he didn't know about this before, Klein never thought of such an answer. After learning more secrets, Klein found that it became increasingly difficult for him to have the proper awe and respect for the "gods".

It's not that he isn't afraid of their power, but after lifting the mysterious veil, Klein always feels that even the gods can't help themselves.

From Sequence Zero to Sequence Nine, in the final analysis, there is only one path with no choice. All the extraordinary people walked on this hillside, pushing the boulders that kept rolling down by gravity, fighting against the fate of being crushed.

There is a dead end at the end of the ramp, and most extraordinary people don't know that.

After taking a seat slowly and briefly scanning the small prayer hall, Klein put his hat on his lap and looked up ahead.

There are several light-transmitting holes on the wall behind the holy symbol, allowing sunlight from the outside to penetrate through. The material that acts as a barrier in the hole should be relatively special. The light does not diverge, but condenses into a crystal bright spot.

They turned into eyes gazing at the praying people, rising into a starry sky that reflected each other in the surrounding dark environment.

When he thinks that the "Goddess of the Night" is a fellow countryman, and he doesn't know which country he is from, Klein always feels a little weird in his heart.

Is all this also in the future Zoya sees?

After reciting the honorable name of the "Night Goddess", Klein whispered the witch Triss's plan, saying that she planned to contact a certain hidden existence on a full moon night for an unknown purpose.

After praying, Klein waited for a moment, but no one came to him.

No response is also an answer. At least He knows about it.

It wasn't until the hourly bell rang, lingering in his ears, that he put on his silk hat, got up and walked toward the door.

Klein stepped out of the dark church. Today, Backlund received a rare bit of winter sunshine, which quietly fell on him.

——

"I'm still not used to the sky being dark like this."

Esther raised her head and looked up at the darkness nearly 10,000 meters above her head.

Although for her now, this was just a height that could be reached with a simple "stealing", she still walked steadily on the ground, stepping on the footprints of unknown creatures under her feet.

Judging from the shape of the huge toes, it should be some kind of creature similar to a lion or tiger.

"And lightning," Crow added.

Because this guy kept pulling his hair, after Esther complained unbearably, he simply stayed in Esther's arms again, as if this was some kind of bird-like privilege.

Esther was holding the sack on her shoulder with one hand and hugging the weightless crow with the other. Although it was impossible for her to fall to the ground and roll around a few times, she would not be injured. However, considering Amon's cautiousness, it was better to forget about this matter. .

"You've been hanging around here longer than me. Aren't you bored?"

"A bit." Crow put his head on Esther's arm, "I am not short of time, but I hate days without changes. I don't know how much you know about the past, but I once went to the northern continent with Adam. After a long time, when I put my focus back here, there was nothing interesting left.”

Esther kicked away a piece of gravel at her feet, revealing a twisted bone like a vine: "I felt like this when I came here last time, desolate and lonely."

Crow was quiet for a few seconds: "It's a pity, you know, I won't feel that way. I can always find something more interesting."

"So a group of Amon gathered together to form a family, and even started an internal referendum? I have seen several elected clone representatives, as if communicating with me is a terrible thing, are you so afraid of me?"

The crow's voice sounded very casual, and it drawled: "I don't like the feeling that things are out of control."

"I thought you would call that a surprise."

After saying this, Esther felt something hit her forearm hard, but because of the strong fabric of the nun's uniform, she didn't feel much pain: "Are you angry?"

Crow shrank his head silently, like a child having trouble: "I have never been angry because of you. Don't think too highly of yourself, Zoya."

"It's Esther," she corrected.
