Lord of the Mysteries 2: Circle of Inevitability

Giving birth? Anthony suddenly had a strong bad feeling.

He immediately gave up the second question that the "Knight of Swords" had set, and asked directly:

"Who is giving birth?"

The servant answered in a daze with a bit of fear:

"They are all giving birth!

"The girl is giving birth, and the boy is giving birth too!"

The boy is giving birth too...Anthony's scalp was numb, and he almost threw a "comfort" to himself.

He took out another gold coin from his pocket, and said to the purchasing servant with a smile:

"Did you forget that you lost a gold Louis?"

The purchasing servant immediately felt the light of the gold Louis reflected in the other's pupils.

He thought that the man in front of him should want to bribe him, so he nodded hurriedly:

"Yes, yes, I forgot. "

As these words were spoken, the shopping servant's mind suddenly became blurred, as if he heard something, but also as if he heard nothing.

When he came to his senses, he had forgotten what had just happened, and the gold Louis in his hand was gone.

In the alley two streets away from the market, Anthony saw the figure of "Sword Knight" Maric reflected in the puddle caused by last night's rainstorm.

Without waiting for the "Sword Knight" to speak, Anthony quickly told the other party the information he had obtained, and finally said:

"The Hedonist Sect is just indulging in desires, and should not regard having children as a symbol of their own path, right?"

The depression in the eyes of the "Sword Knight" was a little better than before, and he said solemnly:

"The believers of the 'Original Moon' in the Hedonist Sect occasionally do, but not to the extent that even men are giving birth. ”

Anthony said in a deep voice:

“Based on the performance of those hedonists, based on the fact that they brought a very important item to Trier, based on the fact that the vortex plan is brewing, based on the fact that the leaders of the vortex plan are those "brokers" who believe in evil gods, I suspect that the "Desire Mother Tree" believed in by the hedonists and the "Great Mother" believed in by the "Night Tour" have begun to cooperate on something, and that thing is an important part of the vortex! ”

Since the "Knight of Swords" came to Trier, he naturally knew the existence of the vortex plan from his major arcana card. He responded in a low voice:

“Your guess is worth being vigilant. I will immediately report this matter to Ms. Hermit and the top leaders of our temperance faction. If necessary, we will take decisive action. ”

Anthony nodded:

“It’s better to inform the authorities. In Trier, no one is more suitable to handle this matter than them.

“I’m going to go back to find my companions too, and let them beware of the coming of the vortex!”

After that, Anthony turned and ran out of the alley.

"My companion will take you to find the Seven of Wands, which will be faster." The Knight of Swords stopped Anthony, "The scheduled reward will be given to you when the situation stabilizes."

The holder of the Minor Arcana card quickly disappeared on the surface of the puddle.

He was in a hurry to write a letter to his Major Arcana card "The Hermit".

Memorial District, No. 9 Orosei Street, Apartment 702.

Franca and Janna squeezed on the sofa, comparing the Rune Gold Pounds in their hands.

"I can feel that they are a little special, but I don't know why they are special." Franca sighed happily.

She immediately raised her head and looked at Lumian who had taken her place:

"Mr. Star's reward turned out to be this, haha, now you have nothing!"

Lumian said with a smile:

"Did you forget Anthony?

"And Lugano doesn't have it either. "

Janna glanced at Franca who was leaning against her, and said carefully:

"When I first got the lucky gold coin, I thought it was a gift of goods, but after you and Ludwig also got it, I began to suspect that they might represent some kind of symbol or certificate, and we will probably experience something together in the future.

"Lumian has so many special things, he will always be involved, and he will get one sooner or later."

"At least he hasn't yet." Franca took the lucky gold coin and shook it as if showing off.

After discussing this for a while, Franka put away the lucky gold coin and asked Lumian about business:

"How is Ludwig's 'training' going?"

"He can obey my orders very well. The next step is to experience some things together so that he and you can gradually form a tacit understanding." Lumian thought for a while and said, "I will design the corresponding tasks. Since there are so few people, we should be able to achieve the goal in two or three weeks."

"Then I will probably digest the 'pain' potion before you are promoted. The biggest problem now is how to make the 'Black Witch' believe that I can digest it so quickly." In the past two days, Franka's progress in digesting the "pain" potion has advanced a lot. She estimated that she would need another week.

Janna was silent for a while and said:

"My 'joy' potion has been digested. After two days of adjustment, the ceremony can be held and I can be promoted to the 'pain witch'."

"So fast?" Franka blurted out in surprise.

Janna looked at Franka with a complicated expression and did not answer.

Franka was stunned at first, and then she said "Oh".

She already understood why, which made her feel even more complicated, with sourness, depression, sadness, joy and pride.

"I have given the potion ingredients and the remaining ice lemon fish fillets to Janna." Lumian said.

"Yeah." Franca quickly adjusted her mentality.

Feeling Janna leaning against her, smelling her scent, and looking at Lumian who was sitting opposite her and imitating her posture, she suddenly felt that she had been quite happy and confident in the past two days. Except for the occasional pain and sadness, everything else was good. Lumian could also actively express his attention, although not much.

This was the first time that Franca had such a feeling since she crossed over.

"Forget it, just think of it as me, Fu, opening a harem, but..." Franca sighed secretly.

She hoped that this time could last a little longer, and hoped that no vortex or doomsday would come.

At this moment, Lumian turned his head and cast his eyes to the area at the side door of the living room.

Anthony's figure was quickly outlined there.

"There is important information." Anthony said directly without being verbose.

Lumian stood up from the easy chair and nodded to Anthony to continue.

Anthony quickly told the information he had obtained from the purchasing servant and his own guesses.

During this process, both "witches" Janna and Franca had a premonition of danger from their own spirituality.

Lumian said without hesitation:

"I will tell Ms. 'Magician' about this first, and then immediately meet up with Ludwig and Lugano and move to a new safe house together. After that, it depends on what tasks the major arcana will assign us."

Above the endless gray-white fog, in the ancient and majestic palace.

On both sides of a mottled bronze table, a series of slightly blurred figures that seemed to be infected by the gray fog quickly took shape and were outlined.

There were eight of them.

The chairs at the top and bottom of the bronze table were empty.

Miss Justice stood up, looked around and said:

"This is an emergency meeting agreed by Mr. Fool."

Ms. Magician did not waste time. As soon as Miss Justice sat down, she immediately asked Mr. Star across from her:

"Is it your idea to let the 'Two Holy Grails' get the water from the 'Woman of Samaria's Spring', or is it a hint from the Church of the Night?"

Mr. Star sat very straight this time:

"The revelation I got in my dream."

"Dream... Is this the 'Goddess of the Night' reminding us to pay attention to Harrison's problem? Yes, He should know that Harrison has been in and out of the 'Woman of Samaria's Spring' several times, and has mastered the rules..."Ms. Magician did not ask any more questions, but turned to look at Ms. Hermit on the same side as her, "Did the 'Queen of Mystery' give any feedback?"

Ms. Hermit shook her head first, then recalled:

"She hasn't contacted me for a while. I tried to find her two days ago, but there was no response..."

At this point, Ms. Hermit suddenly paused, foreseeing a certain scene.

Then, she saw the eyes of Mr. Hanged Man, Mr. Moon, Mr. Sun, and Ms. Judgment all looking at her at the same time, all with solemn eyes and undisguised vigilance.

The Dawn, which was sometimes thrown high into the air by the storm and sometimes hit hard against the whirlpool in the sea, struggled to maintain its balance, just like a toy thrown into the sea.

There was no sailor on its deck, and both the sails and ropes moved on their own, as if being manipulated by invisible people.

After an unknown amount of time, the storm finally subsided, and the Dawn, which belonged to the head of the Six Kings of the Sea, the Mysterious Queen, quickly stabilized.

In front of it, an island covered with huge dark green and black trees gradually emerged under the blue sky and white clouds.

Bernadette, the Mysterious Queen, wearing a floral shirt and a brown captain's coat, walked out of the cabin and walked to the bow.

Her eyes were as blue as the deep ocean, her straight eyebrows extended just right, her naturally long chestnut hair fell to her waist, and she wore long pants and leather boots for easy movement.

The "mysterious queen" stared at the island with empty hands, her eyes became dim, and her face lacked expression.

As the island got closer, another person came out of the cabin.

That person was also a woman, with black hair and brown eyes, and a beautiful appearance. She was a typical Loen person, wearing a dark robe embroidered with multiple pockets and different flowers, which was the favorite dress of ancient merchants.

"Supervisor" Perle!

This evil god believer and initiator of the Whirlpool Plan appeared on the ship of the "mysterious queen"!

Perle walked to the bow, stood beside the "mysterious queen" Bernadette, and also stared at the island, with an obvious smile on his face.
