In addition, Edward was also very curious about Adam's "arrangement" for Medici to become Priscilla's spirit - why did He make a different choice from the original book?
Just as I thought, Medici only played a "symbol" in His script, why did He suddenly take control of him?
"When are you going to ask Him?"
Audrey asked at this time. The first book, the content of the book is as follows:
"It's better to do it today than today."
"Okay, be careful~"
...
In the evening.
As the orange-red sunset fell into the west, the sky and the earth suddenly became dark, with only the crimson moonlight shining through the mist onto Backlund.
When Edward arrived at Priscilla's house, she put on her black suit again and was about to go out with a shovel, obviously starting to play the role of a gravedigger.
Before she saw Edward, Medici, wearing bloodstained black armor, appeared from the mark of the gate to the underworld on her forehead. He folded his arms and said in dissatisfaction, "Little girl, did you tell that kid about your sleepwalking?"
Priscilla was stunned, and then she saw Edward: "Brother Edward, you are here."
Edward greeted her with a smile, then looked at Medici: "Good evening, Mr. Medici."
"I'm not good!"
Medici was furious.
"Well, although you are now bound to Priscilla, it is better than being sealed in a dark underground palace before."
Before Medici could speak, a mouth appeared on his left cheek: "I'd rather go back!"
"Why?"
Medici's eyes twitched: "Ask this girl."
Priscilla looked innocent, "Ask me what?"
The mouth on Medici's cheek said:
"This girl needs us to tell her stories every night before she goes to sleep!"
Another mouth grew on his other cheek. "We told him, but he didn't want to listen!"
Priscilla immediately put her hands on her hips and snorted, "Because what you said before was already boring. There were four emperors, gods, and monsters. It was so boring!"
The left cheek mouth said angrily: "What I was talking about was my own personal experience! It contains all kinds of secret knowledge of the Fourth Epoch, which ordinary people can't even hear if they want to!"
The right cheek also snorted: "I also told her some secrets of the Hades Emperor Salinger, which are all beneficial to her role and promotion!"
Edward was somewhat helpless. Two old people, is it possible that Priscilla just wanted to hear a bedtime story? However... it was a bit too much to ask three Sequence 1 angels to tell bedtime stories.
Although he thought so in his heart, he still couldn't help but be curious: "What happened next?"
Priscilla narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Later, it was Medici who told me the story."
Edward looked over in surprise. He snorted coldly, "What are you looking at? I raised that little crow. I can handle even that kind of thing, let alone a little girl."
Chapter 299 Is the old man in Leonard's body named Yao?
Medici snorted, "Alright, stop talking nonsense! Don't bother with the little girl's sleepwalking. We naturally have our own purpose."
Edward spread his hands. "Mr. Medici thinks too highly of me. Even if I want to intervene, I don't have the ability to do so. But, can you reveal a little bit?"
He quickly added: "I just want to confirm whether it will affect Priscilla's life safety."
Medici said calmly, "I've already explained to her that what we're doing can help us gain our freedom faster and allow her to ascend to demigod status sooner."
"What about more specifics?"
The mouths on both sides of his cheeks immediately said in dissatisfaction: "Little devil, you are so arrogant? Are you questioning us?"
"Hey, do you believe that I can take out your shit and feed it to you now?"
"Medici, give me control of your body!"
"Give me!"
"Get lost!"
Medici's face became darker and darker, and he finally couldn't stand it anymore, "Shut up, you two old women!"
The two mouths disappeared immediately, and he looked at Edward and said, "Do you know who caused me to fall into this state now?! See_风雨文学~ \已¢發/发布+醉_新?章-結. Since we are unable to escape his arrangements and control, then let's find someone who can help us."
Edward was surprised: "The real creator?"
"snort."
Medici hummed in agreement.
"But... He is now trapped in the God-forsaken Land. Can He really help you?"
Medici's eyes flickered. "Oh, you know a lot? Are you really his favored one? It's really strange that the one favored by him didn't go crazy in his current state."
"Well, maybe I'm a special person."
Edward felt a little guilty. In fact, he had always considered himself to be the true Creator's favorite. He had no idea what the true Creator's attitude was.
Medici then continued, "Although He cannot help me directly for the time being, He does have some power in the church outside that I can use."
Are you going to find the Aurora Club?
In the original book, after Medici escaped from the trap, he seemed to consciously avoid the real Creator and the Aurora Society related to Him. The reason was not that Medici changed his loyalty to the real Creator, but... he was ashamed to meet the real Creator. After all, it was too embarrassing to be cooked hot pot by Adam.
But this time, Medici quickly thought of taking the initiative to contact the real Creator. It was not as simple as being tricked by Adam again, but perhaps he realized that Adam's next plan would be very unfavorable to the real Creator.
"I understand. Thank you for your frankness."
Edward thought for a moment and asked, "So, what you are going to do will not endanger Priscilla's life, right?"
"Oh, I dare not."
Medici said with a chuckle.
Edward was slightly surprised. He felt that Medici's words seemed to imply something else, but unfortunately the other party did not intend to continue explaining.
After thinking for a while, he ejected the gold coin and said, "What Medici said is true."
Then, under Medici's gaze, he took the gold coin and spread out his palm:
The head facing upwards indicates affirmation.
Medici stared at the gold coin with a look of surprise on his face: "Boy, your divination skills... seem a little unusual."
"No, no, it's far inferior to the fortune teller."
"Oh, there's not a word of truth in your mouth!"
He sneered, then turned into a shadow and entered the gate to the underworld in front of Priscilla's forehead.
Priscilla touched her forehead and whispered, "Brother Edward, what's going on? Are there any problems with them?"
Just as he finished speaking, Medici's voice came: "Little girl, we just returned to the underworld in your body, not dead. We can hear even the smallest sound you make!"
"No eavesdropping!"
She puffed her lips and snorted.
Edward thought for a moment and said, "I believe that Lords Medici, Soren, and Einhorn will not harm you, but if you have any questions, you can ask Mr. Fool for help."
Edward knew that with Priscilla's intelligence, the three old bastards had long known about the existence of Mr. Fool. Medici had been in contact with the City of Disaster and even been contaminated. He should be able to feel the breath of the Sefirah Castle, which is also the source of essence, so he would be somewhat afraid of the Fool.
"Okay, I got it!"
Edward looked into the room at this time: "Where is Mr. Azik?"
"He has been out for several days. He goes out every few days now. I don't know what he does."
"Does he know about your sleepwalking?"
"Know."
Priscilla nodded. "He followed me once when I was sleepwalking. He seemed to have said something to Medici and the others, and then he left after he came back."
Edward was surprised: Could it be that Medici told Mr. Azik something about the Fourth Epoch, which made him recall something, so he went out to look for his memory?
Medici deliberately sent Mr. Azik away to prevent him from getting in the way.
Priscilla took out her pocket watch and looked at it. "Ah, I have to go out quickly, otherwise it will be too late to come back!"
"How are you going to play the gravedigger?" Edward glanced at the shovel in her hand. She wasn't going to go to the cemetery and dig everyone out, was she?
She sighed like a little adult, "Many people die in Backlund every day and are hastily buried outside the city. I will dig them out, bury them in a regular cemetery, and then help them erect tombstones."
"Then I'll stay with you tonight."
"Okay~~"
She grabbed Edward's hand and trotted off, "Let's go."
...
Backlund Wharf District, Lime Bar.
This is a bar that just opened not long ago. The name sounds refreshing, but the decoration inside is very simple. It is basically a broken warehouse with a simple bar counter and a dozen tables.
The alcohol sold here is the cheapest kind of beer mixed with water. Southwell beer is considered a high-end product here. But precisely because of this, its business has been good since it opened.
Klein sat near the door of the bar. The occasional noise around him made his head ache.
At this time, Old Kohler came over with two wooden cups of beer. He drank cheap beer with water added, and gave Klein a cup of Southville beer.
His face was filled with smiles. "Sir, this drink is on my behalf. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have been able to find a relatively stable job at the docks. Now I can even come for a beer occasionally."
Klein smiled and said, "No, you have worked hard to earn all of this."
He picked up the wooden cup and said, "Cheers to you, old Kohler."
"Thanks!"
Old Kohler took a small sip, then smacked his lips as if savoring the flavor.
"Have you heard any interesting news in the dock area recently?"
