The floor beneath Edward's feet broke into pieces, and he gnashed his teeth in anger: "That old dog!"
Although he had guessed this a long time ago, he could not accept it at all when he finally confirmed it - the Red Priest was the top of the Hunter Path, and after becoming a Red Priest, he would completely become a man!
Even if Lilith finally kills Chick and obtains his extraordinary characteristics and uniqueness, as the dual paths of the City of Disaster, it seems that it can only accommodate the promotion of extraordinary characteristics and uniqueness to the Old Days, and cannot jump paths anymore, right?
Please forgive Edward for his lack of status, narrow-mindedness and limited vision. He really cannot accept it.
Seeing Edward's reaction, Christine pursed her lips and said, "To be honest, I don't like the fact that I have called you mom for so many years and suddenly you become dad, but mom said that is the only way for Him to take revenge on Chick."
"What's more, this is also for self-protection. Without sufficient strength, once Chick seizes the opportunity, there will be no chance of recovery."
Edward gritted his teeth and said, "If I can kill Chick for her, then she won't have to dance the Red Priest dance?"
"…"
Christine looked at him calmly. There was no contempt in her expression, but it was also obvious that she did not believe him. She said in a normal tone, "If you are really as special as mom said, maybe one day you will be able to make it to that step, but mom may not be able to wait."
Yes.
Edward thought silently in his heart: At least from the known future, Lilith has not yet successfully jumped to the Red Priestess, which means that I still have at least 190 years left. I don't believe that I will not be able to advance to Sequence 0 in 190 years...
As soon as this thought came to his mind, his heart suddenly shook:
Advancing to Sequence 2 is easy.
But the Beyonder characteristics of the three Star Keys are all with Mr. Men. How can I advance to Sequence 1?
Even if I can advance to Sequence 1, what about Sequence 0?
As a special path outside of the 22 extraordinary paths, the uniqueness I need to advance to Sequence 0... is it really the uniqueness of the gate?
Edward had considered this question before, but he always thought it was still far away, and maybe there would be light at that time.
But now, when he had to face this problem, he had no idea at all.
Christine just stayed there quietly, not saying anything to disturb his thoughts.
After a while,
Edward asked softly, "Although you and Lilith caused Chick to suffer in Trier's underground, your position has also been exposed. Why do you continue to stay here?"
She smiled and said, "With the Seven Gods watching over him, Chike won't dare come again in the short term. If He sends the angels of the Witch Cult to Trier, the God of Steam and Machinery will naturally not allow it."
"But this is equivalent to you using Steam (Ji)... the God of Steam and Machinery to help you block the bullet. Are you sure it won't anger Him?"
Christmena said, "In fact, although the Seven Gods saw the 'disaster' in Trier a few weeks ago, it was Mom who stepped in to solve it. If the pollution on Chick's body had not suddenly disappeared, even if Mom and I were safe, we would have suffered huge losses. After making such a big effort, it's not too much to borrow a little help from the God of Steam and Machinery."
After a pause, he said, "Of course, once mom comes back safely, we will definitely leave here as soon as possible."
"Where are you going?"
"You'd have to ask mom, but I think it's most likely Feynaport."
Edward was surprised. "Feynepott? Isn't that the territory of the vampires? I heard that Lilith seemed to have... offended the vampires and had some unpleasantness with them."
Christmena covered her mouth and smiled, "Are you talking about my mother pretending to be the ancestor of the blood clan?"
"...yes."
"In fact, the vampires should thank mom instead."
Edward was even more surprised: "Why?"
"Because if it weren't for mom, all the vampires would have followed the 'Goddess of Beauty' Ornia and joined the Trunsoste Empire established by the 'Emperor of the Night' Solomon."
Christmena explained: "When the Night Emperor and Ornia died, the blood race would suffer even more severe casualties and losses. In a sense, my mother saved the blood race. ~ Tian^xi· Novel`Wang* _First Release¢"
Edward suddenly realized, "...So that's how it is."
So, could it be that their own Lilith pretended to be the ancestor of the blood clan, which was agreed upon from the beginning? If so, the relationship between the two Liliths should not be bad, right?
"Then why do they... seem to still harbor hatred towards Lilith?"
He briefly recounted his previous trip to Feynaport.
"It's not hatred, it's more of a matter of face."
Christmena said, "You should also know what the character of the vampires is like. It has not changed much in thousands of years. They seem arrogant and look down on everyone equally, but they are just being stubborn."
It seems so.
People like Emlyn, even if their whole body becomes soft one day, their mouth will still be hard.
"Then if I go to..."
Just when he said this, Edward suddenly remembered that the blood clan Lilith was the Earth Mother Goddess, which should still be a secret, so he said: "Did Lilith say how long it would take her to come back?"
"Mom said that if everything goes well, it will only take a month."
"Okay, I understand."
...
After leaving Christine, Edward went straight to find the little snake.
Once we met,
He said cheerfully, "Have you seen that witch?"
"Um."
Will looked surprised. "Huh? I thought you were here to accuse me of not telling you where they lived earlier." He raised a hand. "But I swear, I really didn't know before."
"Wait a minute, you're not blaming me for betraying you without hesitation at Christine's place, are you?"
Edward shook his head: "How could that be? No matter what, I will only thank you."
The little snake's eyes suddenly rolled and he held out his hand, "But it's not appropriate to say thank you with empty hands."
Edward quickly took out the ice cream.
"not enough!"
Will shook his head. He pinched his chin and thought for a while. "How about this, you write me a note and say... you owe me something. No matter what I ask for, try your best to meet it!"
"this..."
"Don't worry, it's just a simple note. It doesn't need to be notarized. It has no compulsory effect. Besides, I won't really make any excessive demands."
"...good."
Edward took out a pen and paper, and quickly wrote a note as He said, and handed it over. Will took a look and nodded with satisfaction, "Not bad! Tell me, what do you want to see me for?"
"I plan to go to the Astral Plane to digest the Wanderer's potion. Is that okay with you?"
"Of course, Bethel digested it that way as well."
"…I mean, is it safe?"
The little snake raised an eyebrow. "I can't say for sure. I'm just a poor, weak child. The Star Realm is the territory of the gods. Besides, is there anything in this world that is absolutely safe?"
"Of course, I can give you some good luck, but the effect is actually very limited."
"I see. Thank you."
Will waved his hand, "Then I wish you digest the potion soon."
Will frowned as he watched Edward disappear. "It's strange. Why did his fate suddenly change so much? Is it his own problem, or is it influenced by Lilith?"
"Lilith goes deep into the mirror world, what is she doing?"
He hugged himself with both hands and shook himself, "Oh, why do I suddenly feel that Trier is not safe?"
Chapter 591 Lilith's Mission
Backlund, the Harvest Church on Rose Street.
Compared to the future, this small church of the Church of Mother Earth has hardly changed much. Even the personnel configuration is similar. There is a bishop with three or four priests, and almost no believers.
Compared to the future Father Utravsky, the bishop here is just a Sequence 8 physician who looks to be in his sixties or seventies. He is gentle and kind, and exudes a kind glow.
Edward greeted him and came to the front of the church. He clasped his hands together, looked at the holy light of life on the wall, and murmured, "Respected Mother Earth, can you hear my prayer at this moment? If I go to the astral world, will I be lucky enough to set foot in your kingdom of God?"
Now that he had decided to go to the astral realm, he naturally had to choose the relatively safest one first. According to the information currently available, the only one Edward could choose was Lilith, the Earth Mother.
He placed his clasped hands on his forehead, repeated it again, and then began a long wait.
Unfortunately, his prayers fell on deaf ears and received no response.
After a long while, Edward stood up and walked back out of the church. As soon as he walked out of the door, the bishop suddenly walked over quickly. There was a look of disbelief in his old eyes. He tried his best to calm down and said, "The Mother Goddess said it's okay."
Edward was stunned, and drew a hand gesture of the divine glory of Mother Earth on his chest, "Thank you, Mother Goddess."
"May the Mother God be with you."
After leaving the Harvest Church, Edward returned to No. 28 Emerald Street. After sitting in meditation for a while, he prayed to himself and answered himself. He used Sefirah Castle as a transit station for a while and returned to reality again without giving Amon a chance to speak.
Then he took a deep breath and tossed the gold coin: This trip is good for me.
The gold coin flew out of his hand and began to spin on the floor.
Edward stared at it for a few seconds:
"Set off!"
The moment he used [Roam], Edward arrived in a world filled with stars.
This place seems similar to the starry sky, dark, deep, vast and boundless, but in fact it has many peculiarities. The sky is like a black curtain, the sun is directly painted with oil paint, and a bunch of concepts and symbols gather around it.
On this "land", there are mountains, rivers and even cities. They are a reflection of the real world, but they are presented in a relatively distorted and weird form (this is vaguely reflected in the original work's war of gods).
Compared to the barren planets in the real world, this place looks a little distorted and scary, but it is indeed more meaningful for "traveling".
"Then let's start from here and go all the way to the kingdom of Mother Earth."
...
The time point in the future is 1360 years.
Medium-range island.
Emlyn looked at the ancestor Lilith opposite him, pointing at himself with a confused look on his face: "Me? Go to the southern continent... lead the people there... overthrow the colonial and corrupt rule?"
No, ancestor.
Do you have any misunderstanding about me?
I admit that I have the confidence to shoulder the heavy responsibility of fighting against doomsday, but I really don't have the confidence to do this kind of thing!
"Don't worry, there will be others to help you when the time comes.
Lilith said as she took an apple and ate it.
"But..."
Emlyn's face was full of confusion. "Why do you think I'm suitable for this? Ah, it's not that I don't trust your judgment, it's mainly..." I don't trust myself.
Lilith thought about it carefully and said in a serious tone: "Because you are the chosen one who will save the world!"
"…"
Emlyn: I... do have the time to be too lazy to think, which makes me seem a bit stupid, but I can still tell the difference when you are so obvious and perfunctory.
"Okay."
Lilith frowned. "I trust you by entrusting you with such an important matter. If you are unwilling, I will replace you with someone else. How about Lalder?"
"willing!"
Emlyn stood straight immediately.
"Very good, I was right about you."
Lilith nodded in satisfaction and looked at Danitz again: "What about you?"
"…"
Danitz wanted to cry but had no tears: "I... Of course I am willing to do so, but, but the highest 'official position' I have ever held was the boatswain. If I were suddenly asked to become the high priest of the Church of Poseidon and lead the Church of Poseidon and the natives of the Rorsted Islands to drive out the colonists, I am worried... I will disappoint your expectations."
"That's not right. I remember that you served as the bishop of the Church of Poseidon not long ago?"
Huh? She knows about this?
Danitz immediately lowered his head and said, "I was also completely put on the shelf at that time. I was just a puppet.' Bi`qi' Chinese version? · ...
"It doesn't matter."
Lilith smiled and said, "Anyway, I'm just letting you be a puppet this time."
"…"
Lies don't hurt people, the truth is a sharp knife. Danitz felt that he was deeply hurt.
"But I...I..."
"Big girl..."
"My name is Danitz."
"Okay, big girl, look at your left hand. That is the gift left to you by the original Sea God of the Sea God Church. Apart from you, who else is more qualified to inherit His legacy and lead the Sea God Church?"
Danitz subconsciously glanced at his scaly arm, then silently lowered his sleeve. He wanted to say: This is just pollution, not a gift.
"Becoming a high priest is only the first step. You must quickly gain the trust of all factions of the Church of Poseidon and become the new pope of the Church of Poseidon. Only in this way can you lead everyone to resist colonization and exploitation."
"Don't you want to achieve this great and amazing achievement at all?"
...I don't want to at all.
Lilith smiled slightly at this time, "By then, what will the other people on the Golden Dream have to compete with you? Do you think your captain will choose a hero who has led countless poor people to turn their lives around, or a crew member on the ship who only knows how to drink, brag and act like a bootlicker?"
"!!!"
Danitz's heart was shocked, but he still subconsciously refuted: "I... am not a bootlicker."
"So, I was talking about other people."
Lilith took another bite of the apple and said with a smile, "Then everything will be up to you. This is a matter of doomsday! Come on!"
As she spoke, she snapped her fingers lightly, and two mirrors appeared out of thin air. "Goodbye."
The next second, the two were swallowed by the mirror, and with their exclamations and screams, they were sent to their respective locations.
Lilith finished eating the apple and threw the remaining apple core into Emlyn's mirror. Then she clapped her hands and said, "Well, the Storm Lord and Lilith are taken care of for now. Next is the Northern Continent."
Her eyes looked through the azure sea, as if looking at a continent thousands of miles away:
War is coming.
...
Rasha, the Emerald City.
Cattleya walked through the palace made of emerald and came to the room where the mysterious Queen Bernadette was looking into the distance.
"Your Majesty."
She bowed slightly, then took out a long, thin box and said, "This is what Admiral Edwina of Iceberg asked me to give to you. She said she found it at Renburg's home, and it's something that should have belonged to you."
Bernadette turned her head and her eyes stayed on the box for half a second. She reached out and took it, then carefully opened it.
Inside the box was a rolled-up photograph.
She held the scroll and let it fall open naturally, revealing a large group photo.
Mom and Dad, Edwards, Green, William, Perley, Mr. Sparrow, Mr. Dubois, and myself in the middle, smiling the happiest.
Dad and Mr. Dubois stared at each other, Mom hugged herself with a smile on her face, Mr. Sparrow looked uncomfortable, and the four uncles were either nervous, smiling, embarrassed, or drunk.
This is a photo taken after the party on my 7th birthday. It should have been kept well in my room.
Later, she left Trier alone in anger because of her father's sudden change. Later, her father was assassinated in the White Maple Palace. Many things were lost in the turmoil, including this painting.
Unexpectedly, it somehow fell into the hands of Edwards' descendants.
Her fingers gently stroked her little self's smiling face, and her usually cold eyes softened a lot. At that time, she was really carefree and happy.
But a hundred years passed in a flash, and I was the only one left in the photo.
After a while,
Bernadette closed the photo and put it back into the box. She looked at Cattleya and said, "Thank Admiral Iceberg for me when you have the chance. By the way, ask him how this painting ended up in the Edwards family."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"How is Gehrman Sparrow?"
"He has completed his promotion and is adapting to the new abilities of Sequence 5."
Just as he said this, Klein walked in with the sound of footsteps.
Bernadette said: "Congratulations."
"Thank you very much, Her Majesty the Queen of Mystery."
Klein placed his right hand on his chest and bowed slightly to her.
"polite."
Bernadette said calmly, "What are your plans next?"
"Plan? Of course, I'm going to find a way to digest the potion as quickly as possible and advance to Sequence 4."
Klein said, "By the way, Your Majesty... do you know where to obtain the formula for Sequence 4 of the Fortune Teller?"
She thought for a moment and shook her head, "I know that my father once made a fortune teller's blasphemous card, but I have never seen the corresponding formula, and I don't know where it went later."
"Okay, I'll think of a solution myself."
Klein hesitated for a moment and asked, "Excuse me, Your Majesty, but you seem to have always believed that Emperor Roselle is still alive?"
Bernadette's eyes flickered and she nodded slightly: "Yeah."
"Why do you think so?"
"It's just a simple feeling. You can also think that I refuse to admit the reality."
"…"
Klein was silent. I don't know how to talk about this anymore.
Fortunately, Bernadette immediately asked, "When do you want to return to Backlund?"
"Anytime, it depends on your time."
"Let's go now."
Bernadette turned to Cattleya and said, "You better be careful. The whole world is going to be in chaos."
Cattleya said quickly: "I understand, Your Majesty, thank you for your reminder, I..."
"Well, let's go."
Before she could finish, Bernadette disappeared with Klein.
She opened her mouth and murmured the rest of the words: "Can I... continue to follow you?"
The only answer she got was a slightly damp sea breeze.
Chapter 592 You Don't Belong to This World
Backlund, the luxurious villa of Count Hall's family.
Audrey was really shocked when she met Prince Edessak and his sister.
This "lazy" lady really either does nothing or does something big.
As the brother and sister who took the blame for the Backlund smog incident, they are now wanted by both the royal family and the church at a high price, and the situation is such that no one cares whether they live or die!
Audrey originally thought that she might never see them again in this life, but unexpectedly, they suddenly appeared in front of her and inexplicably became her "subordinates".
How dare I... How could I have the ability to have such subordinates.
She seriously suspected that the Psychological Alchemy Society had discovered her problem and wanted to use this method to trick her - but then she thought, why bother with so much trouble?
Oh, I don't know what they plan to do when they return to Backlund this time, but it's definitely not good!
Audrey sat at the desk in the bedroom, holding her chin with her hands and worrying.
