High Priest Nim nodded. "Sir Edward, do you mean that you will not go back to Moon City with us?"
Edward sighed and said, "The Angel King's target should be me. Going back with you will only bring disaster to Moon City. I came here this time to spread the glory and honor of my Lord and bring you hope, not disaster."
"I see."
Nim certainly understood this truth. He crossed his arms and saluted Edward earnestly: "Then we will be in Moon City, waiting for your lord's next envoy to arrive."
The people of Yuecheng left.
In order to lead the people of Moon City to survive in such a difficult environment, the high priest must not only possess martial arts and wisdom, but also keen judgment and decisiveness.
Perhaps he still doesn't fully believe in Edward, but as Edward said, his arrival has brought hope to Yuecheng. With hope, the expectations of the people of Yuecheng that have been exhausted by time can be mobilized; only with expectations can there be a future.
Bernadette then asked, "Where are we going next?"
Edward thought for a moment and said, "We definitely can't stay near Moon City any longer. Let's get away from here. The being I believe in should respond to me soon. Maybe we can leave the God-forsaken Land soon."
He hadn't decided whether to check out the distant sensation or not. After all, he knew better than anyone that curiosity killed the cat. But now that Amon's clone had appeared, could the distant sensation still be Him?
Another Him?
Wouldn't that be a bit redundant?
Or maybe He just enjoys it, just like digging a pit for thieves to jump into.
Bernadette then asked, "Why don't you go to another city in the God-Forsaken Land? Copying the teachings of Moon City there should help you digest a lot of potions, right?"
"But there seems to be another clone of Amon hidden in the Silver City. If we go there, we will be walking into a trap."
"No wonder."
"By the way, Your Majesty, do you have any ability to counter divination? Although it may not be effective against Amon, it can at least provide some psychological comfort."
Bernadette's blue eyes flashed, and the phantom of a white horse flashed across the bodies of the two people and the cat. !薪+悍*夲′神′戦~ !追,醉*新′蟋盤.洁^
It's another mysterious reappearance ability that's not mentioned in the original novel: a white horse is not a horse.
It can hide the target's traces and avoid the possibility of divination.
Edward was itching to try it out. Based on the stories Bernadette had heard from Emperor Roselle, the mysterious reappearance could come up with so many tricks. If it were me, stories in fairy tales, myths, legends, and fables would be invincible easily.
Thinking of this, he asked, "Your Majesty, may I ask if you have the Blasphemy Card made by Emperor Roselle?"
Bernadette nodded slightly, but then said calmly: "Didn't you take the Black Emperor card? What do you want other blasphemous cards for?" After a pause, "The Gateway Card is not in my hand."
Edward cried out in injustice: "How did the Black Emperor card end up in my hand? Didn't you see it with your own eyes that night? Someone else took the Blasphemy card."
She looked at Edward expressionlessly, without saying a word.
"…"
Lilith huddled in Edward's arms, her little head looking at this and that, wondering if she should try to persuade him, maybe the remaining potion could be digested directly!
Chapter 354 Chernobyl
Lilith opened her mouth: "Edward is..."
Before he could finish his words, his mouth was pinched and the spell was interrupted. Edward said, "Well, I do know the person who took the Black Emperor card, but it's really not with me."
"Um."
Bernadette nodded casually, not seeming to care at all, "I also have a Wheel of Fortune card, but I don't have it with me."
The Destiny Path is a mysterious path in the original book, but it has less information. Its main ability in the early stage is to bring good luck to yourself and bad luck to others. In the later stage, it can create an "infinite loop" in a certain area, and can restart the state of a certain area and what is happening.
But according to the little snake Will Auceptin, even He cannot achieve unlimited good luck, which can be said to be a very strange way. It seems that many people who follow this path have died in misfortune after abusing their good luck.
Therefore, if you really have the opportunity to use this card's ability, it is best to ask the little snake for advice first, so as not to get yourself killed for no reason. +齐¢盛_晓¢说*茫¢ ~首-發?
"Isn't the Hermit card in your hand?"
"No."
Bernadette shook her head. "When my father first created the Blasphemous Card, I saw the Hermit Card. Later, when my father was stabbed, all the Blasphemous Cards were scattered. The Hermit Card should have fallen into the hands of the Moss Ascetic Order."
"Do you know the whereabouts of other blasphemous cards?"
"I don't know. I have never deliberately looked for the Blasphemy Card. Moreover, the Blasphemy Card has the effect of anti-divination and anti-prophecy. Even the major churches have not found anything in the past few years."
That's right.
At this time, Edward felt the remaining time of [Bookfish]. By tonight, the abilities of the Black Emperor and the Red Priest should have disappeared. Klein, you must respond to me quickly.
Klein, I urgently need you to help me replenish my magic.
...
Unfortunately, Edward was disappointed once again.
I clearly saw Klein on Sefirah Castle, and he pushed me off the line. This means that he should be fine. Why hasn't he responded to me yet?
Could it be that he was really wary and cautious of me because he saw me in Sefirah Castle and wanted to expel me from the Tarot Club? That's impossible. Given Klein's personality and the relationship between him and me, if there is any problem, he should have talked it out face to face.
Lilith huddled in Edward's arms, twisted her hips and said, "Edward, are you worried about something?"
Edward looked down at her, "How did you know that?"
"Because Miss Lilith felt your heartbeat."
She rushed out and jumped onto Edward's shoulders. "What are you worried about?"
Bernadette looked over and said, "Stop and rest for a while. This is a good opportunity to teach me Roselwen for a while."
A few minutes later, they were sitting in the bright and comfortable tent again.
After drinking a cup of hot coffee and eating some bread, Edward began to teach Bernadette Chinese.
After Lilith had eaten and drunk her fill, she began to feel dizzy and sleepy, and soon fell asleep hugging her tail.
"In fact, the biggest difference between Roselle and Loen and Intis is that the latter two are phonetic, while Roselle is ideographic. Well, it may be difficult to understand just by speaking, so let me give you a simple example."
"For example, these two words must be very familiar to you."
Edward wrote the words "day" and "month" on the small blackboard. These two words appeared in every entry in Roselle's diary. In fact, she didn't need to be taught, as she had already guessed that they were probably related to the date.
"This word means sun, and this word means moon. What you see now is the result of thousands of years of evolution. In fact, when they were first born, they looked like this."
Edward wrote out the pictographic characters of the two words again. "Look, can you roughly associate their meanings just by looking at them?"
Bernadette nodded slightly. "Compared to languages like Loen and Intis, this kind of writing is indeed more vivid and easier to understand."
"But the problem is that precisely because Roselle is not in the same system as the various currently known scripts, it is a little more difficult for you to learn."
Edward added hesitantly, "Maybe..."
There are several paths in the Lord of Mysteries that have the attributes of being a top student, and the path of the Mystery Peeper is one of them. Maybe for Bernadette, learning Chinese is no different from learning other languages.
Edward then began further teaching.
Two hours later,
Bernadette suddenly asked, "Do you feel the potion digesting?"
Edward was stunned. Why did you suddenly ask this?
"No... No, of course there is, but it's just a small amount of digestion."
"Compared to the last time you taught me?"
"It seems to be a little more, but not by much."
She said calmly: "Amon... should really be locked in the Box of the Old Ones."
"Why..."
Edward was about to ask, but then he realized: Yes, if Amon was really hiding nearby, or even parasitizing on him in some way, then in the Chinese teaching just now, he must have been one of the "students" who was taught knowledge.
Correspondingly, Edward's progress in digesting the potion will definitely be much faster than before - he is an angel king after all.
"Did you ask me to teach you Roselwen on purpose as a test?"
"It was just a sudden thought."
Bernadette smiled a little. Without Amon's pressure, she felt much more relaxed. "We have been traveling westward for half a day. We have not found anything except mutated monsters along the way. Is it true that there are no other humans in the God-Forsaken Land except Silver City and Moon City?"
"Not that I know of."
She now asked the question that had been on her mind since she was at the gray-white mist barrier: "What's behind that barrier?"
"This... where am I..."
Bernadette said calmly, "I can pay you in exchange for this knowledge."
"…"
Edward coughed twice. "I only heard from the being I believe in that the barrier is probably a seal. As for what is behind the seal, I don't know."
"seal?"
Edward's answer obviously made her more curious, "If I ask you who sealed it, you don't know either?"
"That's not the case, because that seal was sealed by the being I believe in."
One is the former Lord of Mysteries, and the other is the future Lord of Mysteries. In a blink of an eye, they are the same person.
Bernadette was shocked. "According to the High Priest of Moon City, that barrier cannot be broken even by the ancient sun god. Are you sure it was sealed by the one you believe in?"
"Sure."
"No wonder, even the Seven Gods cannot intervene in the God-Forsaken Land, but He can intervene. It's not surprising if He is so powerful." She frowned, "But why have we never heard of such a powerful existence before?"
Edward continued to help Klein brag, "Because He existed before the First Age, but later fell into a deep sleep and only woke up in recent years."
"He is gradually recovering his power and regaining the authority that should belong to him." After a pause, Edward said seriously, "You must know about the existence of Doomsday, right?"
"Um."
"Mr. Fool is the one who can truly prevent the end of the world."
Bernadette lowered her head and pondered for a moment, then suddenly looked straight at Edward: "Will such a powerful and great existence know where my father is?"
"Well..."
Huang Beibei, your question is too out of touch with the truth.
