Mystery: The arrival of the new Black Emperor

(Additional updates for everyone’s monthly tickets!)

Audrey first keenly noticed that the "hermit" looked at Mr. Fool with a slight expression.

Kavitua fell and occasionally responded to believers. Ms. Hermit was looking at Mr. Fool. Audrey's eyes lit up and she unconsciously had a guess: Could it be that it was Mr. Fool who responded to believers on Kavitua's behalf now? What does Ms. Hermit know, so she reacts like this?

Alger had actually guessed this. He talked about it mainly because he wanted to see the reaction of the "hermit".

Because there are rumors that the "Star Admiral" has a close connection with the "Moss Ascetic Order", and Laticia is a member of the "Moss Ascetic Order", Alger took the opportunity to test the "hermit".

Unexpectedly, he found the "Hermit" looking at Mr. Fool, and Alger realized that the "Hermit" should also know the inside story.

Forsi and Emlyn, on the other hand, just listened to it as a story, and Little Sun didn't pay much attention to it.

Alger, Audrey, Hobert and other members either had some suspicions, wanted to ask for confirmation, or pretended to be confused, so they all looked at Mr. Fool.

Mr. Fool, who was obscured by the gray mist, didn't seem to take it seriously, and said leisurely: "Kavituwa became a demigod by relying on the relics of the 'natural disaster' Cohinam."

Forsi realized something was wrong in the atmosphere and realized: It turned out that they were asking Mr. Fool about "Poseidon".

Cattleya, Alger, and Audrey have already heard the implication of Mr. Fool’s words, and are certain that the “Poseidon” who is responding to the believers now is Mr. Fool!

Cattleya realized that this might be a game between gods.

Alger began to use his excellent brainstorming ability, thinking that Mr. Fool was seizing the authority of these wild gods, thereby increasing his own power and getting out of trouble faster. At the same time, he recalled that he had just talked about Goshinam with the "Emperor" last week, but he did not expect to encounter further clues this week.

Audrey is simply happy that Mr. Fool and the Tarot Society have become powerful.

Hobert said simply: "Congratulations, Mr. Fool! I think if you encounter a disaster on the sea in the future, you can pray to Mr. Fool."

Klein nodded slightly and did not make a specific response.

Emlyn was stunned: What's going on? Mr. Fool has obtained the authority of Kavitua? Me, I was listening carefully just now, but why did I seem to have missed some important information?

Forsi also had similar thoughts and sighed: How did they guess it? How come I didn't realize this at all?

At this time, "The World" suddenly said: "Dear Mr. Fool, I wish to communicate with the 'Emperor' and the 'Hermit' alone."

Klein pretended to nod, establishing a space for the three of them to communicate.

"The World" said: "I have a stomach bag with the residual spirit of Kavituwa for sale."

He believed that the only target customers for these things were the "Emperor" and the "Hermit", and issuing this transaction would only reveal his identity as Mr. Fool's favorite.

Klein has been creating this layer of identity of "The World" for some time, and "The Hanged Man" already knew this through the cooperative hunt for the second officer of "Admiral Blood" last week.

And Klein planned to take the "Star Admiral" ship to find the mermaid, so he had no intention of hiding it from her.

As for the "Emperor", Klein estimated that Hobert had already made a guess.

Cattleya was stunned for a moment before she understood the deeper meaning.

Hobert pretended to be polite: "You... said that..."

"The World" said in a hoarse voice: "Yes, I played some role in seizing the power of Kavitua."

Hobert smiled: "You remind me of a friend who went to sea."

Then he said: "I'll pay 2,000 pounds! Because I'm not sure how useful it will be."

Cattleya seemed to be reminding Hobert, and also seemed to be expressing her own opinion: "This kind of thing has almost no use except for being used in some evil rituals."

Hobert smiled and said, "I know, but I might have some other uses."

For example, try to see if you can create a "Sea Serpent of Order". If that doesn't work, you can also create a spell with a spiritual imprint, which can be used as a demigod-level spiritual attack method.

"The World" said again: "I still have three extraordinary properties of the 'Sailor' path here, but there are spiritual residues, and they bit the corpse of Kavitua whose extraordinary properties had not been separated out before they were alive, and they suffered from Kavitua." It has a bluish color and cannot be taken normally."

Hobert was stunned. This is me... the specialty of the "Creator": "What are the corresponding sequences?"

"Two copies of Sequence 6 and one copy of Sequence 7."

Hobert looked a little embarrassed: "Well, let me buy the Sequence 7 feature for 1,500 pounds first and see if it is useful. If it is useful, I will ask for the other two copies.

"How about two copies worth 3,500 pounds each? Even if it is useful, it can only be used as one copy of Sequence 6 Extraordinary Characteristics, and I have to pay a corresponding price to remove its spiritual residue.

"Even if the stomach bag and extraordinary characteristics I acquired are of no use, will I return them to you?"

The price he has to pay is, for example, three minutes and 1% of his own spirituality.

Although this price is a little lower than Klein's expected price, after all, the extraordinary characteristics of the "Sailor" path are also relatively popular, especially at sea. Selling a copy of Sequence 6 for 5,000 pounds is like a joke!

However, Klein noticed that "The Hermit" was frowning the whole time, which made him realize that only the "Emperor" would purchase similar items.

So after showing some hesitation, he said: "Deal."

Cattleya wanted to remind the "Emperor" again that even if the spiritual residue was removed, there was a high probability that it would not be used as extraordinary characteristics: Doesn't the "Emperor" even know this kind of knowledge? Or does he really have some way that I don't know about to reuse these extraordinary characteristics and spiritual residues?

This made her somewhat doubtful of the authenticity of the Second Age information she had just traded.

After all, Cattleya is already considered a very powerful figure in the extraordinary world, especially in the field of mysticism, so she is accustomed to doubting the "Emperor" first, rather than questioning herself.

It's just that she didn't give a reminder this time, because she had already given a reminder just now, but the "Emperor" didn't seem to take it seriously.

The transaction ended, and "The Fool" ended the state of individual communication.

"The World" said to the "Emperor" again: "I want to understand some of the history of the four empires in the Fourth Age. It is best to go deeper, such as the attitude of the Six Gods towards the four empires at that time."

The reason why Klein wanted to know this was because in the diary he saw today, Russell mentioned some secrets of the Solomon Empire, which made him realize that the Solomon Empire at that time was actually a vassal of the Church of the True Creator.

He had always felt that Solomon should be equal to the status of the real Creator. This made him realize that the war between the four emperors in the Fourth Age might just be superficial, and behind it was the game of the gods.

Because he had just earned 3,500 pounds, and was very likely to earn another 7,000 pounds in the future, Klein would initiate such a transaction to satisfy his curiosity.

Moreover, he deliberately mentioned this matter in front of everyone because he hoped to do another crowdfunding. He knew that at least Miss Justice would definitely join the transaction.

As for the fact that he had just revealed that he was the favored one of "The Fool", there was nothing wrong with trading information to the "Emperor".

"The Hanged Man" is still a member of the Church of Storms, isn't he still trading information with the "Emperor"?

The "Fool" is a god after all. It is impossible to ask the "Fool" for advice on anything big.

Hobert thought for a while: "5,000 pounds! Because some information is interlocking, and maybe talking about one of them can pull out a lot of connected information.

"The other thing is that one empire must be the focus of the transaction. I will only mention the other three empires when necessary."

"The World" nodded: "Okay, as the initiator of this transaction, I am willing to pay 1,500 pounds. Is any of you willing to join this transaction?"

"Me!" Audrey was the first to raise her hand: "I will pay 1,500 pounds."

This provides multiple opportunities to ask questions.

Alger, who had earned more than 1,400 pounds just last week for helping Hobert collect the bounty, was willing to pay 500 pounds without any pressure.

Emlyn, who had saved 2,000 pounds in the intelligence transaction just now, followed up without hesitation.

Forsi and Derrick, as usual, one was willing to offer 500 pounds and the other was willing to offer two extraordinary materials to participate in the transaction.

Cattleya didn't want to make herself too special, so she also paid 500 pounds to join the deal.

This made the reward for this transaction into 5,000 pounds plus two extraordinary materials.

Hobert said to "The World": "As the initiator, you can draw a key point."

Klein had already had an idea. He manipulated the "world" and said: "Solomon Empire!"

"Okay, let's start with the founding of Solomon." Hobert said: "I have announced some information before. The national religion of the Solomon Empire is the Church of the True Creator..."

Emlyn thought he heard wrongly: Isn’t the True Creator an evil god? Did He ever have a church?

But when he saw that no one looked surprised, he didn't feel embarrassed to ask.

It was also the first time for Cattleya to hear that the True Creator actually had a church and was once the state religion: The "Emperor's" information was always so unbelievable and even a little absurd, but these information did not seem to be forged, because forgery was such a Level intelligence requires a lot of high-end knowledge. And if the "Emperor" knows this high-end knowledge, he will most likely know the truth of these history.

The other members had known this for a long time, so they were not surprised.

Hobert continued: "...Actually, it was not made very clear at the time. About 100 years after the Cataclysm, Solomon became the 'Black Emperor' with the support of the 'True Creator' and the 'Redemption Rose'..."

"Please wait a moment." Cattleya couldn't hold it back anymore and interrupted: "Excuse me, is the 'Redemption Rose'...?"

The considerate Audrey said: "Ms. Hermit, I can answer your question, so that you can save the opportunity to ask the question and ask the question you want the answer to more."

Seeing that the "Emperor" had no objection, Cattleya smiled and said, "You are such a considerate young lady. Thank you for your answer."

Audrey said politely: "According to some information released by Mr. Emperor, the 'Redemption Rose' is an organization loyal to the 'True Creator'."

Cattleya naturally guessed: "Is it similar to the Aurora Society?"

"No, it's much higher than that. According to Mr. Emperor, at least two angel kings are members of the 'Redemption Rose'."

"Sorry, what does King of Angels mean?" Cattleya has not felt so ignorant for a long time. She even began to seriously doubt her knowledge. Is she really qualified to participate in the Tarot Club?

Audrey explained patiently: "That is the information we obtained from a previous transaction with Mr. Emperor. There are eight angel kings in total. If you are interested in the specific information, you can initiate a transaction with Mr. Emperor."

She said with a sense of accomplishment: "The members of the 'Redemption Rose' that we know include the 'Angel of Destiny' Ouroleus and the 'Red Angel' Medici.

"After the death of Medici, Ouroleus was the actual leader of the Rose of Redemption."

Alger opposite looked at Cattleya who was still confused and confused. He smiled and thought: So what about the pirate general? Aren’t you still so ignorant!

Since the beginning of this gathering, Alger felt as if he had been overwhelmed by the "hermit". Now he finally breathed a sigh of relief and seemed to have regained his confidence.

Cattleya had never heard Little Sun's description of being "stuck in a loop", so she still had little understanding of the nature of the "Redemption Rose", but this did not affect her understanding of the meaning of the "Redemption Rose".

She said to the "Emperor": "Please continue."

At this time, "The World" suddenly asked: "In other words, it is the True Creator who supports Solomon to become the Black Emperor, and not Solomon who supports the True Creator Church to become the state religion, right?"

Hobert nodded slightly: "That's right. Theoretically speaking, the True Creator and Solomon have a strong sense of mutual trust and a relatively solid alliance."

Alger was the first to understand the meaning of this question and answer: In other words, Solomon is more like the spokesperson of the true Creator in the secular world? In other words, there is a less obvious superior-subordinate relationship between them!

Cattleya's thinking was very clear when it came to the scope of her own knowledge: Much like now, the secular government is largely limited by the power of the church.

Others also understood the meaning of "world" and "emperor" one after another.

Foer thought: This has subverted my knowledge again. I have always thought that the protagonist of the Fourth Age is the "Four Emperors", but now it seems not.

"Little Sun" was thinking: When the "all-knowing and all-powerful God" looks at this land, does he know if there is anyone who can help him take care of these worldly affairs?

Emlyn was thinking: I really want to trade information about the Trunsoest Empire with the "Emperor". I wonder what role our vampires play in that empire?

Hobert added: "I have announced the angel families loyal to Solomon before, and until now, those families are still playing a big role in the extraordinary world.

"Everyone can't help but ask, why did Solomon's empire, which had two true gods and was supported by so many angels, perish?"

Cattleya tried hard to resist the urge to ask questions. She had heard of the angel family before, and knew several angel families, but it was unknown whether those families had ever been loyal to Solomon.

Hobert asked himself and answered: "Because the opponents of the Solomon Empire are the Six Gods! That is, the Six Gods except the God of Steam and Machinery!

"The Six Gods first disintegrated the Solomon Empire from within and caused conflicts among the angel families. Then they promised benefits to Tudor and Trunsoest. They first caused Solomon to fall, and then drove the true creator back to the 'Land Abandoned by the Gods'!"

Cattleya's surprise was beyond words: had the six gods ever teamed up to deal with the same enemy?
