"Beria will definitely attract the church's attention. The seeds in human hearts that Klein encountered were planted by him and have nothing to do with me."

"Hmm... the devil is still Sequence 5. He has anti-divination and crisis intuition. These two characteristics are enough for one or two churches to cooperate. Although cooperation may not necessarily kill him, it can at least protect the detectives who are threatened."

"Sherlock Moriarty believes in the God of Steam and Machinery, so the Heart of Machinery should be dispatched. I don't know who Isinger is a believer, but basically everyone living in Backlund believes in it. The probability of the three gods and three major churches being dispatched at the same time is very high."

Amon sat cross-legged on the spacious single sofa, holding a large round embroidered tassel pillow in his arms, resting his chin on the pillow, and analyzing the current situation word by word with Edward.

"Will the demigod bishops take action?"

"No, the difficulty of this mission is to find the demon. The official team usually takes the lead in Sequence 6 and has sealed objects. The three teams can overflow their combat power, provided they can successfully catch Beria's tail."

Amon stretched out his hand and clicked it in the air. The black gem representing Beria floating in front of the two of them floated to the side of the "divineer"'s pendulum, while the other gears, red beads and blue crystals floated far away. Some.

"I remember you said that Beria is very close to Klein and the others."

This symbolizes that the Three Gods Church is still on alert, but the crisis is lurking around the detectives. The brat from the Belia family seemed very confident that he could not discover him. He was on the second floor of Klein's house and felt what was happening, but he still did not run away quietly immediately.

Maybe he was daring to test the limit of this "shielding" ability. Fortunately, he detected it and I didn't notice it at all.

It is possible that Fabuti, who only has one more Sequence 1 characteristic and uniqueness than him, can do it, but he is eroded and controlled by the Mother Tree of Desire. It is more likely that the Mother Tree of Desire will directly attack him.

"The fight is about to begin," said the Outer God.

Edward did not directly look at most of the scenes he saw. This was to prevent him from having too deep an impression or thoughts on Beria, so that he could realize the danger and escape in time.

After a while, another sentence came to mind: "Beria ran away."

who? Who ran away? Edward was stunned. Against a Klein, a Sequence 7 who was not good at melee combat, he actually ran away?

...This is a complete embarrassment to the devil.

No matter how you think about it, this development shouldn't happen, unless something wrong happened in the middle... Could it be related to Origin Castle? Could it be that we guessed wrong, that if Klein doesn’t control Sefirah Castle, is there really someone else up there?

He looked at Amon, who also looked at him, and then shook his head: "I didn't feel Origin Castle, what happened?"

Edward simply relayed the process that the other person saw to Amon. Amon was a little surprised. He pinched his eyes subconsciously and said hesitantly: "I am more inclined to think that some special circumstances happened over there, such as they also There is a hidden trump card, a passing strongman helps, or the team is taught to run fast. Your current path is good at fighting, but it is slightly short of divination and prediction. Maybe the devil is not sure, or maybe the official staff is timely Arriving there, in short, he gave up his plan to kill and silence him for the time being."

"What you said makes sense. His original purpose was not to silence himself, but to attract the attention of the authorities by silencing him, so that he can accomplish his real purpose." Edward affirmed, "Of course he will not go all out on this kind of thing. Escape can also delay time."

"However, according to your guess, Klein and the others - a few low-sequence and a group of ordinary people - used some special means to scare away the Desire Apostles, which would be even more shameful."

Amon chuckled, and the gems floating in the air fell one by one. He took out a Fourth Age gold coin, placed it flat on top of the thumb of his right hand, and bounced it high, with the bright gold coin flipping upwards. Fly away.

"Let me divine whether official members have arrived at Klein's side now."

They raised their heads together, and their eyes quickly followed the gold coin.

"Snapped!"

Amon clapped his hands and caught it steadily. Unfolded, the relief of the hand holding the scepter faces upward.

“Overse.” On the reverse are the symbols of the Secret Thread, the Gate of Infinity and the Shadow Dial. Amon put away his favorite circulating gold coin from the Fourth Age. Its gold content was almost the same as the current gold pound, but it was larger and heavier due to flaws in the smelting method.

"It seems that the Church of Steam is moving very quickly this time."

After getting the result, Edward stopped thinking about other things and continued to conceive of the plan from the side: Klein did not die in Beria's sneak attack, and he and others successfully waited for the church's assistance. In such a short time Internal defense should be tighter. I had no reason to visit, and I didn't want to interact with members of the Zhengshen Church.

There is no need to observe secretly or wait and see.

Because they are not really the target. Beria might not come.

"If you continue to divine things related to him, he will be aware of your threat to him, so this is enough."

Amon held the shining stone in his hand and asked without raising his head: "Then what are we going to do now?"

"There is no need to do anything, because 'I didn't find him at all', just let nature take its course. For the purpose of the Beria family, he will take the initiative to die in front of me, I just need to wait. Of course, I can't I’m not going to hand over the initiative to them by doing nothing.”

"so……?"

"Come out with me and go to the Aurora Festival."

Isengard Stanton deliberately pretended to be seriously injured, but he had actually simulated an extraordinary healing ability, waiting for the devil to take the bait.

The devil successfully took the bait, but he didn't expect that Sherlock Moriarty also had the ability to heal and mitigate injuries. The lack of tacit cooperation allowed his wounds to be healed instantly. Upon seeing this, the menacing Desire Apostle turned around and left.

Klein and Essinger looked at each other, dumbfounded. They didn't expect that their preparations would happen to hit each other, which was self-defeating. They didn't expect that the demon would walk away so easily.

The devil once stayed on the second floor of his residence, right in front of his desk. There may not be any occult connection left there, but the scene and the evidence must still be preserved.

Not long after Klein took care of it, he saw several strangers coming up to the second floor.

The leader was a man with a hard face, but he had fluffy, messy, and stubborn brown hair.

He was holding an ancient silver mirror with strange patterns in his hand. There were black gems decorated as "eyes" on both sides of the mirror.

"Hello, Mr. Moriarty, I am Ikonser Bernard from the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery. Can I check here?"

Klein nodded and said, "No problem."

He immediately said politely: "Do you need me to follow you and answer some questions at any time?"

"Okay, I'm sorry to trouble you." Ikanser showed a smile.

"Is this where the 'Apostle of Desire' sat?" After entering the bedroom, Ikanser pointed to the chair in front of the desk.

He had obviously asked Isengard Stanton.

"Yes." Klein replied calmly.

Without saying anything more, Ikanser picked up the silver mirror and touched the surface three times with his right hand. He paused for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Dear Arrods, my question is, what does the devil who sat here look like before?"

The surrounding lights suddenly became dark, as if stained with the haze after the rain, and a strange water light flashed on the surface of the silver mirror, converging into a scene:

A man covered in sticky black "liquid" sits on a chair, with his back to the window and facing the bed.

Immediately afterwards, the picture changed, and the full-length mirror in the corner of the room vaguely reflected the side face of the black figure, which was also covered by "pitch black".

But some outlines can be seen vaguely.

The "Apostle of Desire" has high cheekbones and a pair of cold blue eyes.

Glancing at the image that appeared in the silver mirror, Klein suddenly showed a thoughtful expression:

"I found such an important clue as my appearance so easily. This mirror is very powerful. It also has my own name. It seems to be a living sealed artifact..."

"This kind of thing may not necessarily be too harmful, but it is very difficult to seal. It is not a special case and is rarely used. This member of the Heart of Machinery named Ikanser Bernard seems to have a high status. , should be a deacon, and it’s not simple..."

"The limit that divination can achieve is almost the result shown by that silver mirror just now. Even if I go above the gray fog, I won't get better results."

"But we can't be sure just by looking at the 'Apostle of Desire'. There are countless people in Backlund who meet this condition..."

While Klein was having many thoughts, the picture displayed in the silver mirror quickly faded.

Then, words as bright as blood were outlined on the mirror:

"Based on the principle of reciprocity, it is my turn to ask questions. If you lie or cannot answer, you will accept the task assigned by me or be punished."

"..." Klein raised his eyebrows.

Is this Truth or Dare? interesting……

A few seconds later, a bolt of silver lightning appeared out of thin air and struck the top of his head.

Zizizzi, Ikanser's hair stood up straight, and his body fell down with a bang, and some black smoke came out.

But the mirror didn't follow him to the ground. Instead, it floated up on its own and landed on the table.

After two seconds, Ikonse stood up from the chair tremblingly, then sat there, shaking and panting.

Klein watched all of this speechlessly, not knowing how to react for a long time.

Ikonse, who had calmed down a little, looked at him, forced a smile and said:

"You should have heard about what Sealed Artifacts are, and you should also know that they all have certain negative effects."

"Yes." Klein looked at Ikanser's hair that stood up, and suddenly understood why his previous hairstyle was so fluffy, messy, and stubborn.

Klein couldn't help but say:

"Actually, you can ask alone, there is no need to do it in front of me."

"Huh, the requirement for this mirror is that someone must be watching." Ikonse was still trembling.

It is really spiritual... Klein took two steps forward, came to the table, and looked at the silver mirror carefully for a few times with curiosity. He found that in addition to the strange pattern, this living sealed object also had two eyes. There is nothing special about the attire.

Ikanse turned to him sideways, trembling and yelled:

"You can also ask it questions, we don't mind."

"No, I don't have this idea." How could Klein play "Truth or Dare" with a guy like Pen Fairy and Die Fairy?

As he spoke, he tried touching the edge of the silver mirror.

It felt cold to the touch, and felt like metal... As soon as Klein had this thought, he saw the ancient silver mirror trembling slightly.

White words quickly appeared on it:

"Your faithful and humble servant Arrodes is at your service."

Klein:?

Dark Saint Kosma has a slight affection for the Angel of the Abyss - mainly due to the closeness to people who work equally seriously, and also because the other person is a slightly familiar collaborator who can communicate normally.

Coupled with "the Lord's ally", "collaborator for thousands of years", "the biggest contributor to the success of this divine descent", "financial aid" and many other fancy titles, the Dark Saint has only been a saint for a few hundred years. The person respects this demon angel very much, so he is willing to do his best to help the other party with some things and express the sincerity of the Aurora Society.

For example, when it comes to rituals, the spontaneity of the Angel of the Abyss can be seen in his arrangements for his own rituals. Most high-level beings will choose a date that has a special mystical relationship with them, and the day chosen by the Angel of the Abyss is his own birthday - December 22nd. (winter solstice)

In the beginning, Kesma often wondered whether this was a ritual or a birthday party for the devil and angel, which is the customary birthday party every five years.

"Is your sudden visit tonight just for ritual matters?"

Therefore, Kesma was very surprised after seeing Edward. In his impression, the other person never cared about this matter. It is indeed not an easy task to prepare hundreds of extremely sinful souls. Even if given five years, most of the time it will not reach the standard, and sometimes it will even be temporarily stopped due to various reasons. But the Angel of the Abyss didn't seem to care at all. He would do whatever he wanted to do, and he was very easy to talk to. This kind of attitude only made people dare not deal with it.

"Yes."

Edward sat relatively casually: "Some things may happen this year. I hope it can be done in advance. I will decide the specific time."

In advance... Kesma nodded and replied: "It is already the night of the 16th. There are only 5 days before your ceremony, and everything is in the process of preparation. If you have this request, then we will speed up the progress. Make sure you start immediately when you give notice.”

"Then the characteristics that God promised me after the successful descent..."

"It was safely escorted to the sealing room last week."

Kesma said: "But it is as dangerous as a level 0 sealed object, and it contains a lot of abyss pollution, so it is not stored here. We will arrange for someone to pick it up for you by then."

"There is no guarantee what will happen on the way. I can go there by myself."

The Angel of the Abyss nodded with satisfaction, and asked about the current situation of the true Creator.

He did not call him by his name, but asked rather cordially, "The situation of the Aurora Society seems to have improved. I wonder how our allies are doing lately?"

Faced with such a tone, Kesma certainly had no reason to refuse to answer, but for the sake of the Lord, he still hid part of it.

"Since you opened your mouth, I won't hide anything..."

He considered it and said: "As you can see, the reputation of the Aurora Society has improved recently. We are all praying with all our heart according to the Lord's divine domain, spreading the light of the earth and the gift of the sun for Him. The number of people who are willing to join us There are also more and more, and the ranks of our compatriots are growing, but many are not pious enough and need more guidance and teaching.”

"With your help, the Lord came to earth as a pure child, the Son and the Holy Spirit becoming one. This is a supreme miracle."

"His murmurs and voices still exist, but they have gradually revealed his benevolent divinity, from which we can more easily hear the precious knowledge and gospel He has given. Praise the Lord and praise the kingdom that will come."

Aurora will expand in scale, attract more people, promote doctrines on a larger scale, and produce anchors in batches. This is to stabilize His state.

And the voice of the true body far away in the land abandoned by the gods still echoes in the ears of everyone in the secret prayer path, proving that his successfully descended clone is not as strong as a demigod and cannot compete with the ravings of his true body... …Coupled with the large-scale development of believers, it can be seen that the current state of the true Creator is not very good.

This is really great.

Let this clone slowly weaken and die.

"His kingdom come."

"His kingdom come."

After Kesma closed her eyes, Edward also prayed.
