"Alone" bar? Lumian was stunned when he heard the answer.
The founder of the "April Fools' Day" group "Curly-Haired Baboon Research Society" and "Loki" is actually in Trier and is related to the "Alone" bar
Isn't this a coincidence
Lumian's impression of the "Alone" bar was that it was located diagonally opposite the "Different" dance hall, with a theater for puppet shows in the basement. The lighting was dim, the colors were dark, and it looked a little eerie.
He didn't think it was a big problem at first, but after learning that the people wearing monocles in the "Different" dance hall were in a superposition state of "being Amon" and "not being Amon", he thought that the "Alone" bar that could compete with this dance hall and survive was definitely not simple.
In addition, he once saw Liya from the Eighth Bureau enter the bar, so he suspected that it was the Eighth Bureau's secret base, whose purpose was to monitor the Amons in the "Different" nightclub.
Is "Loki" also a member of the Eighth Bureau and an official Beyonder in the true sense
Or, he just lived in the Observatory District and knew that the "Alone" bar was special enough, so he took the opportunity of drinking and used the mechanical typewriter there to make copies of the information to prevent it from being traced
"What's wrong?" Franca looked at Lumian, frowning slightly and lost in thought. She didn't speak for a long time, so she stretched out her right hand and waved it in front of him.
Lumian thought for a moment and said:
“This bar has a huge problem.
"You know this bar?" Franca looked surprised.
This guy seems to know a lot of secrets that I don’t know!
Lumian laughed:
"It all started when Ms. Hela and I were looking for the Samaritan Woman's Spring."
"..." Franca was stunned for a moment, "For such a thing, how many times do you need to explain all the details? Are you like toothpaste? You only get a little bit out after squeezing it once!"
"The focus before was on the situation inside the 'Samaritan Woman's Fountain', and this happened on the way." Lumian explained without any shame.
He started by meeting the Archipelago swindler Monitor and being frightened by him several times, then linked together Charlie's being deceived, the peculiarity of the "Different" dance hall, and the "Magician" lady's introduction to the Amons. Finally, he mentioned that the "Alone" bar was opened diagonally opposite the "Different" dance hall, and that official members of the Eighth Bureau had come in and out of it.
Franka felt like she was listening to a ghost story and subconsciously wanted to hug a pillow, but found that there was no pillow on the armchair.
She quickly came to her senses, straightened her back, and had an expression that showed how a "real man" could not be frightened by a terrorist incident.
This is all used to bully Janna!
When Lumian finished speaking, she hissed and said:
"You really have a lot of experience. You've even encountered this old monster that only exists in horror stories.
"Why didn't you warn me before? That island swindler comes to the market area from time to time. What if I run into him one day
"That's for your own good. If you didn't know there was something wrong with him, you wouldn't behave abnormally when you met him, and he wouldn't notice you. But now, if there was a change in the way you look at him, he might suspect you and think you were a 'parasite.'" Lumian pointed at Franca, half threatening and half reminding her.
"That's right." Franka gritted her teeth and said, "Whenever I meet him, I will pray to Mr. Fool for the angel's blessing after I go home!
She shook her head, put aside her fear of the Amons, and brought the topic back on track:
“This involves the ‘alone’ bar, which is really difficult to investigate later… ”
At this point, Franka suddenly had an imaginative guess:
"Do you think Loki has been 'parasitized' by a certain Amon
"Huh?" Lumian couldn't quite keep up with Franca's train of thought.
Franka said with a serious expression:
"Think about it, the books and legends of the 'Ancient Sun God' have been lost for two or three thousand years. Since the scriptures of the Church of the Seven Gods were copied from him, the relevant information must have been erased. Where did 'Loki' get this information
“Although there are many possibilities, if he is Amon, then it is easy to explain. No one knows his father’s situation better than Chi.
"As a child of a time traveler, you can acquire Loki's memories through parasitism. Even if you can't, you can still perfectly act as our companion. You also said that you like to deceive and scare you several times, which is very similar to Loki's usual behavior.
"Well, when Amon from the 'Different' dance hall made a copy of the information, he deliberately ran to the 'Alone' bar across the street to use a mechanical typewriter to mislead possible tracing. This is also a reflection of this style."
Lumian was surprised by Franka's unfettered imagination. After a long pause, he thought for a while and said:
"That would indeed explain why the profile so coincidentally points to the Alone bar.
"Under the guidance of this evil angel, the members of April Fools' Day gradually became desperate about the future and increasingly pursued their own happiness. It was also a reasonable development that they began to attack other members of the Curly-haired Baboon Research Society.
"But Amon would not intentionally let the data point to the 'Alone Bar', as that would naturally lead investigators to suspect the person who lives diagonally across the street. ….
"Maybe I expected the investigator to think so." Franka retorted habitually.
Lumian shook his head slowly:
“If it was Amon, your divination would have been misleading or you would not have gotten an answer.
"Well, anyway, this is indeed a possibility. I plan to go to the 'Alone' bar for a drink in the next two days and conduct another on-site inspection, but I won't conduct an in-depth investigation."
Franka said "hmm" and sighed:
"In fact, I also know that the possibility of Loki being 'parasitized' by a certain Amon is very small. The essence of our entering the gathering place is to enter a special state. In this state, the seal borrowed by Ms. Hela should be able to distinguish whether there is any abnormality in each member's body, and will not transform the corresponding thing, but leave it where it is.
"Well, I'm just making excuses for myself. It's a very bad thing for us to trace Loki's trail and try to find him without any substantial evidence or strong suspicion.
"This makes me feel like I have betrayed the research institute and my companions, so I hope that Loki will be 'parasitized' by Amon. That way, I won't have similar feelings of guilt, and I am clearing the hidden dangers for the research institute."
Can going to the gathering place in a special state filter out abnormalities in the body? But Thermiporos is fine... Lumian doesn't know whether it's because Mr. Fool's seal is special, or the seal borrowed by Ms. Hela doesn't have the ability to filter out abnormalities, and can't prevent Amon and other angels who can "parasitize".
He did not raise any objections for the time being and said with a smile:
“In my opinion, there must be something wrong with ‘Rocky,’ it’s just a matter of whether it’s big or small.
"When he sold you the information, did he encourage you to explore underground and look for more relics of the 'Ancient Sun God'?"
"Yes." Franca nodded. "He also said that similar places, the higher the sequence, the more dangerous it is and the easier it is to get out of control. Only those of us with low and middle sequences can get close."
"This is only relative. Do you think my previous exploration of the 'Samaritan Woman's Spring' was dangerous?" Lumian asked back.
"It's very dangerous." Franka already had enough knowledge about that matter.
This is before you know that the Blood Emperor’s afterimage almost caught me... Lumian muttered:
"Searching for what's left of the 'Ancient Sun God' could only be more dangerous than this.
"If Loki had not tried before, he would have encouraged you to search underground and used you as cannon fodder. If he had tried before, you would have been contaminated and gradually mutated. He does not have a great being like Mr. Fool to purify him.
"So, finding 'Loki' as soon as possible is good for both you and him."
After listening to this, Franca bit her lip and said:
"Too.
“In this matter, ‘Loki’ really has sinister intentions. The other members of the ‘April Fools’ team seemed curious and tried to participate, but I think they were just cooperating with him.
After convincing Franka, Lumian asked curiously:
"You said that the prerequisite for entering the gathering place is to enter a special state. What state is that
Franka put aside her hesitation and shared excitedly:
"I asked about my Major Arcana before. Although I couldn't say the spell or describe the gathering place in detail, she still guessed it was the power of the hidden based on my words and performance."
"The power of the hidden..." Lumian nodded slightly.
It is quite secretive, even the spell is kept secret and cannot be told to others.
Franka continued:
"The power of the secret lies in the path of the night, which is the path of God controlled by the Church of the Night Goddess."
At this point, Franka lowered her voice unconsciously:
"I suspect that Ms. Hela is from the Church of Evernight.
"Similar to '007'?" Lumian didn't meet the "007" today because there were too many people participating in the party, and he didn't know the other party's usual dress and the group he often appeared in.
Franka said "hmm" again:
"Similarly, but probably more respected, more senior, and possessing more hidden knowledge."
Recalling the various behaviors of Ms. Hela in taking water from the "Samaritan Woman's Fountain", Lumian felt that there was nothing wrong with Franca's description.
The lady did possess a lot of secret knowledge, and she had a black diamond ring that clearly surpassed ordinary magical items and was suspected to have divine power.
Besides, the Sealed Artifact she borrowed to call the party was more powerful than Lumian could have imagined.
Lumian asked casually:
“What are the main manifestations of the power of the ‘Night’ path
According to Aurore's witchcraft notes, the first three sequences of this path are "The Sleepless", "Midnight Poet" and "Nightmare", which mainly involve the enhancement of spirituality, the improvement of energy, the reduction of sleep, the mystical application of poetry and the special method of forcing people to sleep.
Franka thought about it and said:
"The power of the hidden, the command of the spirit, the real dream... .
A real dream... Hearing this answer, Lumian was suddenly stunned.
He remembered the real dream he had in the ruins of Koldu village.
