"It's just a part of it. This matter involves things at a higher level. I can't tell you for the time being.,墈^书^君~ +勿.错?内容/"
After all, the plans involving the Goddess of Night and Father Maozi, as well as Doomsday and the Outer Gods, were not something Audrey could know right now.
"What's your dad's plan?"
"He... doesn't seem to be planning to put all his eggs in Loen. He has already found a way out in Intislenburg and even in the southern continent. If a war really breaks out, he will choose the most advantageous one according to the situation."
Well, just like in the original book, it fits the behavior of a standard businessman. I just don't know if he will be stabbed in the back by his own little cotton-padded jacket someday.
"Oh, forget it. There's no point in worrying about this kind of thing. Let's just take care of ourselves. Anyway, I gave each of my parents a leather bag with a traceless extension spell. Inside each bag is a door key to the Church of Evernight. If a war really breaks out, we will hide inside and then teleport to the church."
Edward added: "Also, everyone should be equipped with some defensive spells!"
"That's right!"
At this time, Audrey's face straightened and she said, "Okay, tell me what you have encountered in the past few days."
"This has to start with Klein's disappearance..."
More than an hour later.
After hearing what happened, Audrey was silent for a while. "So... you borrowed the good luck of the doll in order to save your father, and that's why you provoked the Angel King?"
"It should have attracted His attention when I was fighting with that audience demigod in the spiritual world."
She thought for a moment and said, "Did the True Creator let the angel take you back just to tell you those words?"
"He, can be said to be a madman now. Who can understand the logic of a madman's actions?"
Having said that, Edward couldn't help but think of Sasriel and the first blasphemous stone tablet he saw before leaving the God-Forsaken Land.
But if this matter is related to the real Creator, why would He go through so much trouble?
"Hey, this time it's all thanks to the mysterious queen, otherwise it would be really dangerous for you to encounter Amon alone." Audrey sighed, "I wish I had the same strength as her."
Edward smiled and said, "I have prepared the Beyonder characteristics of Sequence 4 for you. Try your best to digest them. You will be promoted to Demigod soon."
She nodded slightly, "Yeah."
After hesitating for a moment, she continued, "I think... you must confess to the Queen of Mystery as soon as possible. The more hope she places on you, the greater her disappointment will be when she learns the truth. This is too unfair to her."
"I see!"
But telling her the so-called "truth" now...is still a little too late.
So Edward decided that when he was promoted to Sequence 4, he would take Bernadette to the primitive island to find Emperor Roselle. He would confess the truth then, and Bernadette would be able to see her father, which should make up for it to some extent.
"By the way, how much of the potion have you digested now?"
"About halfway."
Edward's tone was filled with regret. "If I wasn't afraid of Amon, I would have been able to digest at least two-thirds of the potion by going to Silver City again."
Although the "knowledge" that Edward gave to Moon City or Silver City were all very simple common sense, on the one hand, for these thousands of people who were isolated from the world, it was all new and unheard-of "knowledge", and on the other hand, the population base was large and the quantity was sufficient.
"How are you going to digest the remaining half?"
Edward held his chin up and said, "In fact, I found that teaching knowledge is not difficult to achieve. The difficult part is how to combine it with wandering."
Audrey asked curiously, "How well has the mysterious queen mastered Chinese...Roselle? Can she read the Roselle diary freely?"
"It shouldn't be possible yet.! Xin. Complete\ ¨ + 鰰¨ 戦! ¢ Chase, the final ~ Xin. Zhang- knot \"
"Then how about...you continue to ask her for help?"
"Um."
Anyway, the sooner I advance to Sequence 4, the sooner I can take Bernadette to find Emperor Roselle. Edward doesn't have any psychological burden about asking her for help.
"Woof."
Susie ran in with light steps accompanied by excited shouts. She first greeted Edward Wang, then came to Lilith and nudged her affectionately with her head.
Lilith also meowed when she saw this, dragged a piece of steak out and threw it to her.
"Meow~"
She glanced back at Edward.
"Okay, go ahead, be careful."
Lilith jumped down and landed on Susie's back, and the two little ones quickly ran out.
A few minutes later, Hibbert walked in, "Edward, you're back."
Compared with the previous times they met, Hibbert had a face full of stubble, his hair was a little messy, and there were dark circles around his eyes, but there was a gleam in his blue eyes.
He no longer has the confidence and shrewdness of the past.
"Hibbert..."
Audrey looked at her brother distressedly, "You finally came out."
"I'm sorry for making everyone worried."
Hibbert said apologetically, came to the dining table, picked up a steak and a glass of sweet ice tea, and started to devour them.
"Huh?"
As an audience member, Audrey found that Hibbert was in very active spirit, unlike the depressed state she had imagined. He seemed to have figured out some problem and made a decision.
"Hiccup~"
A few minutes later, Hibbert threw away the half-eaten bread, drank up the iced tea in the cup, burped without caring about gentlemanly manners, and then looked at his sister and future brother-in-law and said, "I want to be an extraordinary person."
Chapter 369 Pales: Don't come over here!
Although she had expected it, she was still a little surprised. You know, Hibbert, who had been trained as his father's successor since childhood, had always received an aristocratic education. His behavior, habits, way of thinking, and preferences for doing things were very similar to those of Earl Hall.
For them, they always follow the saying "It takes a lot of hard work to get the job done". Instead of drinking the potion and taking the risk of losing control themselves, why not just hire extraordinary people to help them?
Why should we personally show up for a problem that can be solved by just giving an order?
Hibbert was smiling, but there was no smile in his eyes. "I don't want to go through what happened two days ago again."
"I used to think that this world had rules, and I thought everyone had to follow them. Now I know that was just my wishful thinking."
"In this case, I will no longer be so foolish as to not be able to adapt. Therefore, I want to become an extraordinary person."
Edward glanced at Audrey and saw her nod, so he asked, "You know the risks of becoming a Beyonder, right?"
"That's right."
"You also know that if you don't want to accept the restrictions of the church and the government, you can only secretly become a wild Beyonder, right?"
"Um."
Hibbert said, "Anyway, we already have two wild Beyonders in our family, so we're not afraid of having one more."
He was naturally talking about Audrey and Edward, and this sentence directly regarded Edward as a member of the Hall family.
"Okay, then have you ever learned about the path of Beyonders before? Have you ever considered which one to choose?"
Hibbert hesitated for a few seconds, "Based on my previous life experience, the most suitable path for me should be a lawyer." He paused, "What do you suggest?"
Audrey agreed: "I also think you are suitable for the lawyer path."
And Edward knows all the recipes for this route (Black Emperor brand).
"Is that decided?"
"It's decided!"
An hour later.
Earl Hall came back reeking of cigar. After seeing Edward, he did not say a lot of nonsense words of thanks. He had already learned the truth about his resurrection from his daughter.
He just looked at Edward and said with a smile:
"Welcome home, Edward."
...
Cherwood District.
As soon as Xio entered the room, he saw Fors sitting on the sofa with a lot of bags in her hands, obviously waiting for him.
Her first reaction was that Fors was not lying down, which was rare.
"What's wrong with you?"
Fors stood up immediately and said seriously, "Xiu, we really have to leave Backlund this time! I just learned this afternoon that the severity of the incident in the suburbs is far beyond our imagination."
She took a deep breath and apologized: "I'm sorry, I got you into trouble."
Xio was surprised and said, "But, I just received news that the investigation into the incident in the suburbs has come to an end."
"ah?"
Fors was stunned. "Could it be that they have stopped on the surface, but are secretly doing something shady?"
"this..."
Xio scratched his messy hair and said, "That shouldn't be the case. This news came from the church. It seems that the church has reached some agreement with the royal family."
Fors said in distress, "But according to the information I received, it seems that the incident is no longer just a royal scandal. It is even related to... the gods!"
Xio was stunned, "God?"
"Where did you hear this news?"
"Anyway...I have my channels."
Xio immediately frowned, stood on tiptoe and glared at her, "Tell me the truth! I've noticed that you've been acting mysterious recently, are you hiding something from me?"
Fors's eyes darted around, "That... I... am..."
"Is it related to that Klein?"
"I really don't have this!"
"Are you secretly in love?"
"???"
