Mystery: Beginning with the Pope of Night

Salinger wore a dark black divine robe, decorated with luxurious gold ornaments, and his facial features were typical of people from the Southern Continent.

"Long time no see, Dream." Salinger waved away the Death Consul and sat opposite Truman.

"First of all, congratulations to you for finally becoming a god. It seems that Gray Carrie has been completely suppressed by you."

This is Truman's inference based on the path of the "God of Death". When Salinger became a god, the interference of the previous generation of "God of Death" was indispensable.

"I have been waiting for this day for a long time." Salinger's voice no longer had the unique coldness, and he sighed slightly.

They met at the end of the Second Age, and even had a tacit cooperation to push the ancestor of the Phoenix into the "River of Eternal Darkness".

"I'm here to invite you on their behalf." After the simple greetings, Salinger went straight to the point.

"What?!" Truman blinked, almost suspecting that he heard wrongly.

"On behalf of all their true gods, I invite the Sun to join the Alliance of Gods." Salinger repeated seriously.

"Herabergen and Leodro have also reached an agreement with us and will not have any prejudice against the Sun."

"..." Truman blinked, doubting his ears for a moment.

"Invite 'The Sun' to join the Alliance of Gods?" Truman repeated it and couldn't help but applaud.

This move was truly unexpected.

The invitation is "sun" rather than "dream", this is the most important point.

This is equivalent to the Alliance of Gods taking the initiative to let Truman step into two different boats, giving up certain interests, and letting "The Sun" join the Alliance of Gods.

In this way, for Truman, this is hedging his bets. Even if he encounters the worst situation, he will not be a loser.

"Wonderful!" Truman sighed.

"Originally, Heiye was supposed to come to talk to you." Salinger reminded, "But since you are here, you can let me do it for you."

Truman was once the Pope of the Night, and even now he is still the dream angel under the "Goddess of the Night". No matter from every angle, the "Goddess of the Night" is the best choice.

but……

Are you afraid that I will win over "Dark Night"... Truman did not reveal Salinger's thoughts and looked at him with interest.

"We don't need you to stand clearly on our side. We just need you to be able to give up Solomon when the outcome is clear."

ha! This is because they are afraid that I will lift the table...

"Always stand on the right trend of history. This is what I know about you, and this time is the opportunity we give you."

"No matter who wins in the end, you never lose."

Salinger looked at Truman and expressed his views on Truman.

"We have compiled all your information and have a deep enough understanding of you. You will agree."

Sallinger analyzed calmly.

"You should have first appeared under Dark Night and became his Pope. At that time, you were still an angel."

"Afterwards, 'Dark Night' killed the Demon Wolf of Destruction and grabbed the biggest victory in the Age of Fire."

“In the twin years, you went to the Creator’s Heaven and became the Creator’s dream angel.”

"Then the Creator took back his authority and ruled over the entire world."

"In the third era, you disappeared for a while, but after returning, you joined the Redemption Rose and delivered the final blow when assassinating the Creator."

"You seem to have an unknown ability to foresee destiny and always stand on the right historical trend. And now we are exchanging such an opportunity for a promise that is not harsh."

"..." Truman fell into a long silence.

Bang bang bang!

Truman couldn't help but applaud Salinger, "It's really unfair of you to be the 'God of Death'. You should be the 'Black Emperor'."

Sequences seven and six of the "Black Emperor" path are "briber" and "corruption baron" respectively, both of which are good at persuading and corrupting people.

"So," Salinger stared at Truman, "your choice is..."

"But there is one thing you should be confused about and even frightened. How do you know that the camp I am in is not the correct one?"

Truman looked at Salinger and asked this sentence.

"..." Salinger gently closed his eyes, feeling the deathly power surging around him. After a few seconds, he opened his eyes.

"This is indeed a problem." Sallinger answered calmly, "But we also have the power to create trends and define the right thing."

"And it's certainly not a bad thing for you to have more choices."

That's right... Truman was speechless.

"Then I'll take it as your promise." Salinger suddenly said such a sentence, and then disappeared directly in Truman's astonished eyes, turning into the concept of death and returning to the underworld.

Um... Truman's whole body was shrouded in black threads, and he felt like he was being dragged aboard a pirate ship.

But soon Truman smiled again, as long as such an unconstrained invitation was sent out, it had already achieved its purpose.

On a deeper level, Salinger didn't even mention it. When he even realized that he was about to refuse, he ran away without giving Truman a chance to refuse.

Truman did not enter the underworld to force Salinger out, but walked out of the palace and found the Death Archon.

"Your Excellency, the banquet is still going on. Do you want to return to the venue?" Death Archon still had such a lifeless and indifferent tone.

"No, I'd like to ask you to take me around the palace." Truman has a very outstanding advantage, that is, he holds grudges, and he basically doesn't stay overnight.

Salinger tricked him a little, and he found it back with his son.

"..." The Death Archon subconsciously wanted to resist. When he thought of the "God of Death"'s order, he had to give up his official duties and lead the dreamy Duke to visit the Balam Palace.

"Azik, do you know anything about divinity and humanity?" Truman asked.

"Divinity? Humanity?" Under Truman's guidance, Death Archon pondered this profound question for the first time as Azik Eggers.

Resurrecting vessels to produce deep humanity is not a good thing.

"Yes," Truman prepared to use the method of inspiring Lilith in the Second Age to help Azik develop some humanity.

"The two are opposites in a mystical sense, but they have many things in common. Your current indifference is just an expression of your divinity."

"And if you want to gain humanity and achieve balance, you need a large number of believers. Not only do you have to get close to them, you also need to understand them and become them."

Truman's voice fell into Azik's heart like holy light turning into rain.

This is the "utopian" authority, which is silently integrated into the deepest part of Azik's spirit, turning into his instinct, and will sprout into a stable human nature at the right time.

Salinger could have discovered this method, but who let him escape?
