The dark clouds over Trier had dispersed, and the crimson moonlight shone on every corner of the city, reflecting the stagnant water that reached up to the calves.
Lumian and Franca appeared on the edge of the rooftop of some unknown building. In front of them was a "magician" and a pile of items floating in the air. On the sides were Janna and Anthony, who seemed to be surrounded by dark glass, their eyes looking somewhere unknown.
Without waiting for Lumian to ask, the "Magician" said with emotion: "Medici has become the King of Angels again.
"The most powerful conspirator in a long time has returned."
"The 'Red Angel' who once followed the 'Ancient Sun God' and the Medici who died at the hands of the 'Blood Emperor'?" Lumian was surprised, yet not so surprised.
How could the angel from the "Hunter" path not be involved in matters involving the secrets of the Sauron family and Trier in the Fourth Epoch
The existence of Albus Medici is proof of this!
Lumian had previously thought that the secrecy of the "Inn Ceremony" and its forced advancement prevented the "Red Angel" from having enough time to exert its influence, but now it seems that he is the biggest winner.
The Magician was still in a relaxed state. She laughed and said, "You don't need to add the last half of the sentence. It makes you look like you are provoking him, especially since you still have the Blood Emperor's aura mark on your right hand."
Franca heard Lumian mention the Medici family and asked curiously: "What did the 'Red Angel' do?"
As she spoke, she glanced at Janna and Anthony and found that they were neither listening to her conversation with the "magician" lady nor looking in their direction, as if they were in another world.
Behind her, the accumulated water on the rooftop was slowly decreasing, and the sound of splashing continued to echo from the drain.
The Magician sighed: "When the angels of the Einhorn family and the strong men of the Iron Cross were about to kill the out-of-control Fomonda Soran with the help of the seal and the special power of Trier in the Fourth Epoch, he accurately grasped the opportunity, ended the entire battle, and obtained the Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristic.
"The blood-red sky and the blazing white rain of fire you saw were the changes he brought to Trier in the Fourth Epoch after becoming the Angel King again."
So that's how it is... Lumian recalled what happened just now and had a direct understanding of the terror and power of the Angel King.
At this time, his feet were no longer wearing shoes or socks, because he was transferred to the world in the painting while he was sleeping, and he was wearing shoes and socks in the painting afterwards, which obviously could not last long.
He asked thoughtfully: "Is the screaming giant the out-of-control Fomonda Soran?"
No wonder the roar alone almost made him and his companions lose consciousness. Fortunately, Mr. Fool's gray fog provided protection.
"Yes, when Fomonda Soran lost control and entered the sealed underground, it marked the beginning of the Soran family's decline. Although there are still many details that remain unclear, the general situation has been clarified."
The angel of the Einhorn family... One of the main goals of Eros Einhorn and the Iron Cross is to open the seal, hunt down the out-of-control Fomonda Soran, and obtain the Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristic? Lumian nodded slightly and asked uncertainly: "Did these strong men enter Trier in the Fourth Epoch through the 'Inn Ceremony'?"
"Most of them entered through the underground leak point of Breeze Ballroom opened by the 'Inn Ritual'. The one from the Einhorn family entered through the leak point deep in the underground palace of Red Swan Castle, but it was also equivalent to relying on the chain reaction caused by the 'Inn Ritual'. As for how the 'Red Angel' entered, I don't know yet." The "Magician" expression was serious, "But there is reason to believe that the 'Inn Ritual' was planned by the 'Red Angel'. He used the 'Iron Blood Cross' and Gardner Martin. He is worthy of being the one who once taught and cared for Amon."
Lumian suddenly understood and felt that many details had more reasonable explanations.
Franka's emotions became very complicated.
The Magician glanced at the two of them and said in relief, "But no matter what, our actions have hastily brought forward the 'Inn Ceremony' and reduced the damage this plan caused to Trier. In the entire market area, only a few night watchmen in the Honest Market and Lister Wharf suffered disasters. Some soldiers died in other areas. The overall loss was mainly economic, which shows that our efforts are still valuable."
At this point, she smiled self-deprecatingly and looked up at the sky: "The only thing we didn't expect was that they actually cooperated."
They... ... Lumian and Franca muttered to themselves.
They really wanted to know who was working with the "Red Angel", but Ms. "Magician" obviously didn't intend to tell.
The lady cast her eyes towards the silver-white full-body armor floating around her, the remains of Gardner Martin, and the items that Janna had just thrown away in the battle. She smiled and said, "I will help you deal with the corresponding pollution and provide specific usage information. This is considered a bonus for this mission."
"Well, I suggest you ignore the pollution on the bone flute for now. This can bring a very unique effect to it. Anyway, with Gardner Martin's Beyonder characteristics, you don't need Philip's anymore. And your own Speciality can effectively reduce the negative effects of the bone flute."
The latter part of the sentence was said while looking at Lumian.
After seeing Lumian nod, the "magician" continued: "This wooden box is a kind of 'dark box'. It cannot be used in combat, but it can solve many problems that cannot be solved by violence in special scenarios. I will write down the details and have the messenger deliver it to you."
"The mirror fragment left by Mirror Gardner is closely related to the special mirror world in Trier in the Fourth Epoch. My intuition tells me that it may involve the current status of the 'Original Witch'."
"This set of armor is a bit special. Wearing it will bring you some good fortunes. Haha, have you ever thought about becoming a beautiful woman or a handsome man four or five meters tall?"
After briefly introducing the basic information of the different items in a joking manner, the "magician" nodded slightly and said, "Once I have processed them, I will send them back along with the information and an official reward."
"Seven of Wands, you have to leave Trier for a while. The mission of the Iron Cross has come to an end. All you need to do is tell that gentleman. I believe he will understand and accept it."
Lumian thought that Trier's two consecutive disasters were related to him, and said, "I think so too. I plan to track down the remaining members of April Fools' Day."
The Magician then looked at Franka and said, "What you do next will depend on the reaction of the Witch Cult. Remember to report to your Major Arcana when the time comes."
After Franca responded, she glanced in the direction of Anthony and Janna:
"When the aftermath is over, ask them if they want to draw a Minor Arcana card and become a member of the Tarot Club. If they don't want to, don't force them. I'll let them keep it a secret."
"Become your Minor Arcana?" Franka asked happily.
The "magician" smiled and said, "Not necessarily. It depends on fate."
She immediately said to Lumian: "You don't have to leave in a hurry. You can hide and wait for a few days. Now, go back to the Golden Rooster Hotel. I see that fate is waiting for you there."
Fateful encounter? Lumian was very confused, but he could tell that the "Magician" lady didn't want to explain what it was specifically, or maybe she just saw that one incident and didn't see the details.
The next second, the "magician" lady and the things around her were surrounded by starlight and disappeared into the air.
"It's really dreamy..." Franca exclaimed sincerely.
She then tilted her head and said to Lumian thoughtfully: "Do you think that the 'Magician' lady is the 'Star Angel' mentioned in the church's scriptures?"
“No way…” Lumian retorted subconsciously, and then fell into deep thought.
…
Chaotic streets, Golden Rooster Hotel.
As Lumian walked up to the second floor, he saw a figure squatting at his door.
He was a little boy of seven or eight years old with baby fat, a simple and honest temperament, and carrying a dark red schoolbag.
Baron Ludwig Brinell's monster adopted son? Lumian frowned slightly and walked over: "What do you want?"
Ludwig, with blond hair and brown eyes, stood up and said eagerly, "Can you help me leave Trier? I don't want to stay in the Church of Knowledge anymore, I don't want to be controlled by Brinell anymore, I don't want to do homework and test papers anymore, I can pay you!"
“Reward?” Lumian raised an eyebrow.
Is this the fate that the "magician" lady talked about
Ludwig nodded heavily: "Yes."
He quickly took off the dark red hard schoolbag he had been carrying, opened it, and pulled out a stack of papers: "I stole this from the Church of Knowledge, no, I took it."
Lumian took it and scanned the first page: "Number: 01."
"Name: Flag of the Fallen God, Blood Flag of Salinger."
"Danger level: '0', extremely dangerous, highest level of importance, highest level of confidentiality, cannot be inquired, cannot be spread, cannot be described, cannot be peeped."
The information of a "0" level sealed object? And it's "0-01"! Lumian's temples and eyelids twitched at the same time.
He knew that the church had sealed up many magical items that were very harmful and had serious negative effects, and divided them into four levels, among which "3" was the lowest and "0" was the highest. Level "1" often meant a threat to the saints and would bring about a very big disaster, and "0" was unimaginable.
Lumian raised his head sharply and looked at Ludwig, only to find that the little boy had a pleading look on his face, nothing else unusual.
He lowered his head again and quickly read the following content: "Secrecy level: Only God's messenger can understand."
"Sealing method: Place it in an underground mausoleum, place a large number of puppets, build a cemetery with more than one million corpses on top, and build a real city with a population of more than 100,000. The specific implementation method and ritual arrangement are..."
Description: This is a burnt flag, the flagpole is made of iron-black metal, and there are a lot of dangerous blood spots on the flag.
"… Extraordinary people above Sequence 5 cannot approach. Warning, Extraordinary people above Sequence 5 cannot approach!
"… The experimenter who is responsible for replacing the puppets must be blindfolded and hold a lantern… If the lantern goes out, the experimenter will disappear immediately, and everyone who knows him will believe that he has died a long time ago… If he is not blindfolded, the one who leaves the mausoleum will be a monster like him… "
"... ... The exiled city of Morola on the surface often encounters extreme weather, including but not limited to hurricanes, heavy rains, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions... ..
"... There were no volcanoes in the area around Moro...
"… The inhabitants of Morola are extremely aggressive, with multiple duels with casualties occurring every day, and protests and riots occurring more than six times a year... ..
"... ..The residents of Morola have no intention of leaving the city at any time..."
“…According to some ancient texts, it witnessed the fall of at least two true gods… ”
Fuck, is this something I can see? The more Lumian looked, the more frightened he became.
He looked at Ludwig in doubt and asked again: "Did you really steal this?"
Is this information that can be stolen casually
Ludwig, who looked like a child, wanted to refute that it was not stealing but taking it, but finally nodded honestly: "Yes."
Lumian frowned as he looked at the little boy and fell into deep silence.
