Isn't that one of the two cards in Mr. Fool's hand?

Klein then switched to the world again. "Before the great smog occurred, an incident involving the three major churches and the royal family broke out in the suburbs of Backlund. According to my later investigation, the Loen royal family has been secretly building a mausoleum for the promotion ceremony. To this end, they have been kidnapping and trafficking people from all over the world. -6/Invite￠Read/Book^茫. ^耕~鑫·畞`全?"

He looked at Alger and said, "Mr. Hanged Man, do you remember Barron, the person you asked us to find out about last time? He is one of the people responsible for human trafficking for the royal family."

Alger was stunned. He never expected that a commission he had issued in the Tarot Club would actually involve such a big event? !

Klein continued, "Although I have not yet found the high-sequence witch who caused the smog and is related to the interests of the Loen royal family, but..."

Edward said at the right time: "The royal family wants to use this smog to cover up the human trafficking they have been doing in Backlund over the years."

Klein's heart skipped a beat. He thought of all the possibilities, but he never expected the truth to be so "simple". If someone hadn't stopped it in time, this smog would have caused the deaths of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people. And the result was just for this?

He lowered his head, a flame of anger burning in his heart.

Fors was in a state of confusion. She was an eyewitness to the Backlund Suburb Incident. She had originally thought that the human trafficking of the Loen royal family was just a scandal, but... you told me it was related to the promotion to the gods? It was over, it was over, it was really over this time!

Audrey asked quickly, "Then...could the assassination of the upper echelons of Rune be related to this?"

Edward shook his head. "I don't know about that."

After a pause, he said, "Of course, this was just the initial idea of ​​the Loen Royal Family regarding the Great Smog Incident. In fact, the incident outside Backlund had already let the three major churches know their plans in advance. The reason why they continued to stir up the Great Smog was because the Loen Royal Family hoped to use this opportunity to reach a cooperation with the Witch Cult. Oh, they also found another partner, the Aurora Society - to be more precise, the True Creator."

Priscilla nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. A was sent out that day, and then he disappeared!" The little girl's tone was full of gloating.

Alger was somewhat suspicious: According to his speculation, Mr. Fool should be planning to cooperate with the True Creator, but according to Mr. Hightower, the True Creator, the Witch Church, and the Loen Royal Family also seemed to be cooperating. Doesn't this mean that Mr. Fool is going to cooperate with them—there are two evil gods among them?

Evil God Alliance?

Klein looked at Mr. Fool and said respectfully, "Mr. Fool, what do you think of the Loen royal family's plan?"

Mr. Fool said calmly: "A despicable person is not worthy of becoming a god."

"I see!"

Alger heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. It seemed like I was overthinking.

At this time, Mr. Fool waved his hand and said, "Okay, that's it for today."

Audrey stood up and lifted her skirt to salute: "Goodbye, Mr. Fool."

She glanced at Edward, hesitating whether to pray to Mr. Fool and meet with him alone, but when she thought about the sacrifice he would be testing soon, she temporarily gave up the idea.

"Goodbye, Mr. Fool."

The next second, everyone disappeared from the gray fog, and Klein was the only one left in the huge palace, rubbing his temple and staring blankly.

After a while, he said to himself:

"If a despicable person like George III can become a god, then this world is truly hopeless. If... there really comes a day like that, even if he becomes a god, I will try to pull him down!"

"call--"

He laughed at himself and said, "Heh, I'm just a Sequence 7 ant. It's really presumptuous of me to think about these things. Go down quickly and take a rest to recover your spirituality. I have to help Edward later."

...

A place forsaken by God.

Edward opened his eyes and found himself back in the tent. Lilith was sitting at the door of the tent, like a guard, keeping watch for him seriously.

"Lilith, I'm awake."

Lilith immediately ran back happily, her eyes full of anticipation: "How about it, can we leave this nasty place now?"

"I don't know yet. I need to give it a try. What are you talking about?"

"Okay~"

Edward raised his voice slightly: "Your Majesty."

A few seconds later, Bernadette leaned over and walked in. She asked calmly, "How is the being you believe in?"

"He responded to me. Next, I need to do a test that will determine whether we can leave."

"What do you need me to do?"

"Well, just cooperate with me and stay in one place."

"Can."

Considering that it would take some time for Klein to recover his spirituality, Edward did not rush to offer the sacrifice. Instead, he waited patiently for a while, then took out an empty suitcase and opened it, "You go in first, and Lilith too."

"Be careful, Edward~"

Lilith said as she jumped into the suitcase, while Bernadette nodded slightly at him and also walked in.

Edward then took out candles and other related items, skillfully arranged the ceremony, and then recited:

"Fools who do not belong to this era;"

"You are the mysterious master above the gray fog;"

"You are the yellow and black king who controls good luck."

"Your faithful servant begs your gaze;"

"I pray that you will accept his offering;"

"Please open the gates of your kingdom."

Woohoo~

The next second, a strong wind began to stir, dyeing the surroundings with silver and dark black, which kept colliding and merging, and then the candlelight symbolizing the "fool" was thrown in, expanding and tearing out an illusory door of normal size.

There were two boxes on the ground, one containing the 5,000 pounds promised to Mr. Fool's "Follower", and the other was for Bernadette and Lilith.

Edward quickly jumped into the other suitcase, closing it behind him.

In the dim suitcase, Lilith used her magic wand to light up the fluorescent light, adding a little light inside. Edward immediately transformed several lanterns, making the place brightly lit.

"What's next?"

Bernadette looked at him and asked.

"wait."

After Edward finished speaking, he closed his eyes and silently wished for success - otherwise, it would be really troublesome.

Above the gray fog.

Klein sat on the bronze chair at the head, staring at the illusory door that appeared behind the high-backed chair. He then extended his spiritual power to open it, and through the vast gray fog, he saw two suitcases lying on the ground.

This scene...I seem to have seen it somewhere.

Klein swallowed his saliva, holding the Blasphemy Card in one hand and the Paper Crane in the other, ready to deal with any unexpected events at any time. After confirming that the mysterious figure - Amon - was not there this time, he once again looked at the spirituality and sucked the two suitcases through the illusory gate.

Huh? Why are there two boxes?

During the whole process, he remained extremely careful, watching the suitcase slowly move above the gray fog. He looked through the suitcase to see the inside, and was slightly stunned.

...

Moon City.

A man wearing a black classical robe, a pointed hat of the same color, with a particularly broad forehead and a monocle on his right eye, was walking leisurely on the streets of Yuecheng with a smile on his face.

People came and went around Him, but it seemed as if they could not see Him at all.

Amon stopped walking at this time, looked at the children drinking noodle soup, and laughed: "Interesting."

He has been walking in this God-forsaken land for thousands of years. As one of the only two surviving cities, Amon naturally knows that this place has been isolated from the outside world for thousands of years and it is impossible to know anything about the outside world.

But now these people are actually discussing the outside world, and are full of anticipation about leaving the God-forsaken Land and heading to the uncursed world outside.

"A messenger of the Lord? A messenger of the Lord to spread His glory and light?"

Amon touched his monocle and smiled, "Father, someone wants to poach your last believers."

"That messenger should be the guy who killed my clone silently, right? I wonder where he is now?"

Suddenly, Amon turned his head and looked in a certain direction: "Found it."

A glimmer flashed across the monocle, "No, this aura is...hahaha, killing two birds with one stone."

Amon took a step forward, trying to gain distance and pass by instantly, but his eyes blurred and he came to a dark space, facing a huge crimson halo.

He was slightly stunned, and the corners of his mouth curled up:

"Lilith?"

...

Above the gray fog, Klein was stunned when he saw Edward carrying the suitcase. "Didn't they say there was also the mysterious queen and her assassin cat? Why is he the only one here?"

Could it be placed in another storage for extraordinary items?

He looked at another one and saw only a large stack of banknotes. Oh, this is the 5,000 pounds that Edward promised to give to my beloved. Klein's eyes lit up: Godfather, please accept my greetings!

—Wait, the box of money seems to be more valuable than the money itself, right? Should I return it? Or... just pretend I don't know and keep it for myself?

But he quickly came to his senses, but in this case, Edward was the only one being sacrificed.

At the same time, Edward also discovered the situation inside the suitcase.

Bernadette and Lilith were still standing in front of him just a second ago, but the moment he felt the suitcase being sacrificed to Sefirah Castle, they both suddenly disappeared from his sight, and he himself was successfully sacrificed to Sefirah Castle.

Oh shit, this won't work.

Edward quickly prayed to Mr. Fool, explained the situation and asked him to send him back.

After a moment, the gray mist around it disappeared and the suitcase returned to reality.

Edward quickly got out of the suitcase and found Bernadette and Lilith still in the tent, one frowning and the other looking at him blankly.

"what happens?"

Edward asked, "You two suddenly disappeared right before my eyes."

Lilith scratched her head: "Ms. Lilith doesn't know either, it just came out in a flash."

Bernadette frowned and said, "I just felt an irresistible repulsive force that pushed me out of the box."

"Repulsion?"

Could it be that Sefirah Castle was rejecting her?

Did he think her sequence was too high and Klein couldn't handle it? But Lilith was only Sequence 8, so why was she squeezed out?
