Lord of Mysteries: Yao Guang

"Do you think George III can succeed?"

"..."

"It seems that he has no destiny to become a god, otherwise Esther would definitely know about it, and you or 'fate' will always guide her to know, right?"

"I have no obligation to tell you these things."

Skylark huddled at the bottom of the "cage", looking weak and tired, and his tone was quite cold when he spoke.

The appearance of this "cage" is very special. Rather than saying it is a birdcage, it is more like a crystal ball without a door lock. It only leaves a thin slit at the top to prevent it from forming a completely closed environment, so the inside Creatures don't suffocate either. However, both sides know very well that it does not matter whether this gap exists or not, it is just a mockery of the victor against the prisoner.

For a bird, this crystal ball, which is no bigger than a human head, is still very cramped, and the narrow space is quite uncomfortable. What's more, when the person playing with the crystal ball throws it up and catches it, the skylark inside will bump with it, tumbling helplessly in it.

There was a desperate lifelessness in those light-colored eyes as big as peas.

Amon smiled, admiring the stubbornness it showed at this moment. Since catching this little guy, similar conversations have been going on for a long time, which is also a kind of self-entertainment for him.

But such an attitude is of no use. As long as this Sequence 2 clone is willing to mobilize the unique connection, Skylark must answer him. This has nothing to do with the obligation that Skylark said, but a completely irresistible obedience, just like the influence of all high-sequences on low-sequences, not to mention that this little skylark itself has no extraordinary characteristics.

But this is also the premise that Amon has trapped it before he can manipulate the little bird at will, otherwise it would have escaped long ago.

Norns retracted his head under his wings in frustration. He couldn't figure out why things turned out like this - especially how could Amon find the secret hidden in the dreamland and even have the power to control another uniqueness?

This puzzled Norns, and more than anything, he was irritating. It has never been wronged like this before. Klein has always been very indulgent to it. Even when it was in the cage, the door was never locked...

Time goes back to one hour ago.

Because what he was about to do was too dangerous, Klein did not dare to take Skylark with him this time, so he simply entrusted Norns to Ms. Arianna.

But out of an inexplicable sense of fear, Norns was full of resistance to this. Even if it didn't show it in front of Klein, it was still determined to escape.

The more important reason is that Norns sensed some kind of hidden guidance, telling it to be wary of the power of "dark night".

At the same time, the feeling of being called continued to resonate, so strong that the skylark could not resist it - of course, it would have been impossible for it to "escape" from the "Secret Servant" lady, unless there was a hidden goddess for other reasons. The reason, signaled Arianna to do this - in the end, Norns escaped, or in other words, it thought it had successfully evaded the hidden spy.

When this skylark was still pleasantly surprised by the sudden freedom, foolishly pursuing the source of that call, hoping to reunite with its own tribe and Esther, it saw a smiling white-eyed bird waiting for it. crow.

Norns knew it was a trap the moment it was too late, not to mention that the crow blew a rather raucous whistle at it.

The skylark's feather clusters suddenly lit up, its wings stopped flapping, and stiffly froze in the posture of wanting to turn around and fly away, and then fell down like that.

The crow disappeared, and the person who caught Skylark was already Amon, who was wearing a pointed soft hat. The lens in front of his right eye emitted a light yellow light, making Skylark feel familiar and friendly, but also felt a fear of being completely seen through.

"It's amazing." Amon said with emotion, squeezing the fragile and helpless bird in his hand. The smile on his face was real and joyful, like a child who found a new toy.

Seeing the deep warning in Skylark's eyes made Amon even more interested: "Oh? You are not as blindly obedient and unwilling to obey me as they are. Because you are too far away from the group, you already have your own identity. Likes and dislikes? Or is it that Esther gave you a little help and made you special? "

Norns regained control of himself, but was held in the palm of Amon's hand. He shook his head vigorously, but felt the force squeezing his body became firmer.

Amon tapped his monocle with his free right hand, and a faint light was reflected from the transparent crystal lens, as if some kind of fine golden sand was flowing through it and was being washed away from the bank of the river surrounded by mercury.

Skylark immediately calmed down. Under the absolute suppression of personality, it could only raise its head resignedly and answered Amon's question: "No, what makes me special is not Esther, but the 'secret' knowledge." …”

"Don't take the nickname 'Secret' so naturally," Amon narrowed his eyes, and the smile in his dark eyes disappeared. "What the outcome will be this time is still unknown."

Norns seemed to be even more proud than Amon. It stiffened its neck and continued: "We have spent a very long time repairing the broken destiny. Everything will be on the right track and there will be no difference."

Amon pointed to his monocle: "Is this matter also within the fate you saw?"

Skylark was speechless for a moment and just shook his head blankly.

"You see, destiny is different."

Amon was very satisfied with Skylark's silence, but he didn't intend to give the little guy a chance to ask for help. A layer of transparent crystals spread out from his palm, quickly sealing Skylark who was unable to struggle, and Norns could only watch himself being locked up.

"Even if you don't do this, I won't go to him." Skylark whispered, as if explaining something for himself.

But soon, Amon started to play catch up and up, and he sat safely on the edge of a nearby building, looking at the square where speeches were being held not far away to pass the time. No one would notice that there were people here.

As for those high-ranking people, they were fighting a chaotic battle in other places.

"Oh, I know you won't go to him. But you might attract other attention. I know your thoughts very well."

Amon smiled kindly, but he never stopped torturing Skylark:

"Who do you want to ask for help? Dazhibog or the demon wolf? Ouroboros or that lunatic? You have no one to rely on. As long as I reveal your true identity, you will be their natural enemy."

A little surprise flashed in Norns' pale eyes. Amon stopped shaking the crystal ball, so Skylark put his head under his wings again and did not move for a long time.
