Chapter 18: 18
Only War (Second Update)Chapter 205 Only War (Second Update)
"Zhou, you don't need to write so much when you come to me." The High-Dimensional Overlooker pushed aside the dense threads floating in the air, and his figure gradually emerged: "Just say 'come on board' to me, and I will come, right?"
"Then Lao Gao, please pay the postage just now."
"…We can discuss this another day. Talking about money hurts feelings."
The High-Dimensional Overlooker said to Klein in front of him in a serious tone, "I have read your letter. You called me here to help you arrange the property you are planning to buy here?"
Looking at Klein in this state, the High-Dimensional Overlooker gently pressed his hands downward. "Curtains" hung down from all sides of the room, forming a closed space around the High-Dimensional Overlooker.
Klein only felt the light in front of him dim for a moment, and then the corners began to light up, turning the space covered by the "curtain" into a small room.
While changing the surrounding environment, the High-Dimensional Overlooker asked Klein:
"Speaking of which, what is your current identity called?"
"...Dwayne Dantès."
"Dantès..."
The High-Dimensional Overlooker chewed on the word, shook his head slightly, and said to Klein in front of him:
"What's the situation with the manor here? The Aurora Club in the southern continent is now directly led by the True Creator. If you want the Aurora Club to move in, I'm afraid your plan will fail."
"There are three organizations in the southern continent right now: the Aurora Society, the Iron Blood Cross Society, and the Creator Savior Society. They are currently fighting a fierce battle with the Eternal Blazing Sun Church."
"Then maybe we can make this the headquarters of Polar Day Company? In this way, it can provide help to me and the Aurora Society at the same time." Klein thought for a moment and asked tentatively.
The help was not limited to supplies, but also intelligence.
"We can give it a try." The High-Dimensional Overlooker analyzed in detail to Klein beside him: "The two of us don't have time to run a manor here, but others do."
"Others, are you referring to Mr. Z?" Klein asked curiously after hearing the words of the High-Dimensional Overlooker.
"No, of course not." The High Dimension Overlooker smiled, "Mr. Z has already become a baron, and he has decided to stay in the Backlund region of the Loen Kingdom to continue to shine for the True Creator."
"Who else could it be? Do other gods have this kind of experience?"
Seeing that it was not Mr. Z who had relevant experience, Klein became even more confused. The Aurora Society's influence spread across many countries, but there were not many such talents among them.
After all, the real Creator had no rationality at all, so he naturally would not train his believers towards professions other than Extraordinary.
But now the situation is different. Now the monasteries under the Aurora Society have begun to select talents from all walks of life to prepare for the future growth of the Aurora Society.
Driven by a group of fanatics, the progress can be imagined.
"Why does it have to be a messenger of God?" The High-Dimensional Overlooker smiled. "I'm going to ask the True Creator if I can borrow the Great Snake, um, Ouroboros. As far as I know, He has a lot of free time."
"Ouroboros?" Hearing this name, Klein was stunned for a moment: "Do you really think the Angel King has time to be the president of the company?"
"I don't actually rule out this possibility. After all, 'He's free enough to help middle school girls predict love..." The High-Dimensional Overlooker lowered his voice so low that Klein couldn't hear it clearly. Seeing Klein looking over, he changed the subject and explained to Klein:
"Ouroboros is a Beyonder on the path of destiny. For Beyonders on this path, the opportunity for advancement must be related to destiny. If destiny does not reach a certain moment, then He will not be able to accommodate other characteristics or uniqueness to become a god."
"Is it okay to help a middle school girl predict love…" After analyzing Gao Wei's words, Klein curled his lips and did not associate this matter with himself at all:
"But are you sure He will come to help? For the 'Angel of Destiny' Ouroboros, assisting the true Creator should be the most important thing, right?"
"You can ask Him. Polar Day Company can be considered as the real Creator's industry. If He can see the flow of fate in it, He will probably agree to your request."
"...What a path for a charlatan. Is this destiny?" Klein couldn't help but complain, "I still didn't expect Him to become the president of a company and appear in the public eye."
"Compared to this, I'm actually more curious about what I should call Him in the future." The High-Dimensional Overlooker immediately fell into thought:
"Although Polar Day Company is a company I established with the funds of Mr. Z, in terms of actual position, I am just an ordinary employee. When Ouroboros takes office, should I still call Him President Wu?"
You think so far ahead, Old Gao... After hearing Gao Wei's words, Klein couldn't help but open his mouth. Taking advantage of the opportunity that he and Gao Wei finally met, he quickly asked:
"Old Gao, I want to ask you something. Do you know any way to find 'Blood Admiral' Senior?"
"Looking for someone? Are you going to hunt him down and obtain his extraordinary characteristics? - Or is it the Rose School?" The High-Dimensional Overlooker touched his chin and began to play dumb:
"Perhaps you can ask the 'Magic Mirror' Arrodes. If you can get in touch with him, it should be able to give you clues about Senior."
"'Magic Mirror' Arrodes?"
Klein was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that this was a seal. "I remember that this seal belongs to the Church of Steam. If I want to borrow this seal, the process will be very troublesome."
"No need to borrow the magic mirror. Arrodes is alive and will find it on his own."
The High-Dimensional Overlooker said to Klein in front of him: "As far as I know, Arrodes has a certain relationship with Sefirah Castle. If you use a medium that can communicate with Arrodes to contact it, you can communicate with it through your own special distance."
"I see…" Klein nodded thoughtfully: "Old Gao, do you know what kind of medium to use?"
"Well… I'll give you a batch of stuff later. You can try it out." The High-Dimensional Overlooker said to Klein in front of him.
He had no intention of throwing the telegraph directly to Klein, allowing Klein and Arrodes to contact each other directly.
The High-Dimensional Overlooker was ready to turn around and use the identity of the "Hidden Sage" to directly communicate with Arrodes, asking Arrodes to assist the current great master and help suppress the consciousness of the Heavenly Venerable.
You know, Arrodes is God's creation. It appears next to the heir of Tianzun, which must be used by God to target Tianzun.
"Okay, I understand." Klein nodded. "Then I will contact the Angel of Destiny first, and then I will discuss the land handover with the employee in charge of land sales."
"I'm going with you today."
The High-Dimensional Overlooker took out a piece of clothing from the closet beside him and said to Klein beside him, "I will directly hand over the job to this employee in my capacity as the head of Polar Day Company."
"Okay." Klein nodded. "I will also use this base to spread the faith of the God of Death. This is also the mission that Amanesis entrusted to me."
"Since it's a mission, why don't you challenge yourself?" The High-Dimensional Overlooker suddenly became interested and said to Klein in front of him, "If you want to pretend to be the Blessed One of the God of Death, why don't you create a female Blessed One..."
The invisible cameras in the room, formed by the source of the High-Dimensional Observer, turned their heads and shone at Klein in front of the High-Dimensional Observer. It seemed that as long as Klein agreed, this video would be recorded forever.
"Absolutely not."
Klein felt his spiritual intuition begin to warn him, and he decisively rejected the request of the high-dimensional overlord. He already had many titles. In the City of Silver alone, he was called the 'God of Harvest', 'The Fool', and 'The God of Luck'.
He didn't want to have a batch of strange "anchors" later.
The High-Dimensional Overlooker sighed with obvious lack of interest, and muttered, "I was hoping that a legend of Iverene would emerge here..."
Three black lines suddenly appeared on Klein's forehead. Lao Gao, what if there are other time travelers? Are you going to let them mistakenly think that this is the Warhammer world?
(Note: Ivreene is the daughter of shadow in the Warhammer world, and can be regarded as the messenger of death)
...If you meet someone with weak psychological endurance, he might just commit suicide.
Thinking of this, Klein coughed.
"Let's put this aside for now. I'm not ready to decide which identity I'm going to use to play the role of the God of Death's favored one."
"Lao Gao, after I obtain the ownership of that piece of land, I plan to visit the local Eternal Sun Church."
Klein said to Gao Wei beside him, "During our previous communication, I used my ability as a 'psychologist' to test the employees of this company. Now the situation in the southern continent seems to be very wrong. Many ordinary people who are not Beyonders have also learned about the situation of Beyonders."
"This means that Beyonders are now rampant in the southern continent." The High-Dimensional Overlooker said to Klein,
"Or, I can put it in a friendlier way. The situation in the southern continent is not good. There are an unusually large number of Rose School members here. After all, the Mother Tree of Desire has invested most of its power in the southern continent."
Of course, there are also arrangements in Trier. As for me, Yangyang, I have been entangled by the mother tree... The high-dimensional overlooker automatically ignored this joke and looked at Klein in front of him with a smile:
"If this is the case, then you probably really need to greet the Beyonders of the Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun to prevent the industry you have set up here from being destroyed."
"That's right." Klein nodded, feeling a little depressed. "Gao Wei, I'm thinking about something now."
"What's going on?" The High-Dimensional Overlooker saw Klein in front of him. After noticing Klein's expression, his face changed and he asked him,
"Is it about the Southern Continent?"
"Yes." Klein nodded somewhat heavily. "I saw before that the people in the colonies here are living in a very miserable way. Most areas are even worse than the East District of Backlund."
"But I have no way to help them. If I use all my strength to help them, I am afraid I will not be able to deal with the enemies that will come one after another. For example, Amon, the Angel King who wants to take over Sefirah Castle."
"My time travel is related to Sefirah Castle. If I want to find out the truth about my time travel, I'm afraid I have to completely inherit Sefirah Castle to find out why I traveled through time."
Klein felt somewhat powerless for a moment.
From a normal person's perspective, seeing others suffer would make one feel a little compassionate. But facing the entire southern continent, Klein felt that his power was just a drop in the ocean and completely incapable of changing the current situation.
"That's the truth." The High-Dimensional Overlooker also sighed in front of Klein,
"The conflict between the Southern Continent and the Northern Continent is basically irreconcilable now. If we can't use the high-level officials of both sides to mediate, then only war can liberate the people of the Southern Continent."
"It may sound harsh, but freedom and liberation come from war."
All industries in the Northern Continent rely on the blood of the Southern Continent, but even so, the rich people in the most prosperous Queens District of Backlund drink hundreds of gold pounds of red wine every day, accompanied by luxurious banquets.
The people in the East District of Backlund could only squeeze into dilapidated houses and struggle to earn the daily food they needed.
Only war can break the current situation.
Because in this world, all power belongs to God.
...
"However," the High-Dimensional Overlooker added, "you may not need to exert all your strength."
"Isn't it helping a small number of people not helping?"
"Make good use of your connections, Klein."
The subsequent plot of going to the Blazing Sun Church is not important, so I will skip it for now. I feel a little uncomfortable writing such a bland chapter...
I will still update twice a day tomorrow. I may not be free the day after tomorrow due to some things. So now I have updated 5 times. It's a long way to go.
I will ensure the quality first. Sometimes I can only post a single chapter first because I don't have enough timeLeavingChapter 206 Leaving
"I still have to be careful of the werewolf that chased me before..."
The power of Salted Fish is so terrifying that even the outer gods cannot resist it.
On the morning of the third day, Fors was quite reluctantly thrown back to where she had been before by the High-Dimensional Overlooker without mercy. However, after much persuasion, Fors managed to snatch a day of rest from the High-Dimensional Overlooker.
Although Fors only slept for half a day during the daytime break, he was dragged out by the high-dimensional observer to watch the stars.
At least I managed to get through the most dangerous time yesterday... Fors thought optimistically.
Fors yawned. She had changed her clothes and peeked out from the alley with a strange feeling of being mentally exhausted but full of energy.
"The werewolf left? That's right. It's already the third day. Even if he's mentally ill, he shouldn't still be squatting here watching over me..."
Fors looked at the werewolf that had disappeared before his eyes, and couldn't help but pat his chest, breathing a sigh of relief.
"I've escaped..." As he thought about it, the salted fish felt like dying again: "How about going back to the place where I was two days ago to have a look?"
She immediately gave up the idea.
"No, no, no, I think it's better for me not to go there. No matter how I think about it, I can't go there... I can't go to the bar, but I can use other means to explore the situation in the southern continent!"
Fors suddenly had an idea and looked at a child dressed as a newsboy who was cowering not far away:
"I want a newspaper..."
At the same time, in the hotel where Klein lived.
"Finally, the affairs of the manor have been handed over…" Klein rubbed his temple and sighed silently.
His pockets were shamefully deflated again, and he looked hungrier than the "creeping hunger". At this moment, Klein had already created a wealthy businessman persona for himself and couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
Just before this, Klein had already completed the handover of all his business purchases in the southern continent, and went to visit local church members with the High-Dimensional Overlooker.
What surprised Klein was that even under the current situation in the southern continent, the extraordinary people in the "Eternal Blazing Sun" Church in charge of this area were still trying their best to maintain order in the area.
It can be seen that for some people who strictly follow the teachings of the "Eternal Sun" and are inclined towards light, the differences in blood and culture will not cause them to discriminate.
Of course, no one is perfect. After Klein donated 100 pounds to the church as "Dwayne Dantès", the priest of the "Eternal Blazing Sun" Church obviously softened his expression. He did not show any displeasure even when he knew that Dwayne Dantès did not believe in the "Eternal Blazing Sun".
If Klein hadn't repeatedly emphasized his belief in the "Goddess of Night", this priest would probably have wanted to personally preach the doctrine of the Eternal Sun to Dwayne Dantès.
Klein withdrew his thoughts and looked at the two people in front of him.
Sitting on Klein's left was Leonard, who had changed into the standard robes of the Aurora Society, while on his right was Hugh, who had taken off his brass mask and was wearing the same clothes he had worn in Backlund.
The spare clothes had already been bought, including a piece of clothing from the southern continent, a decent piece of clothing bought from a store run by the Loen people, and a few sets of clothes they prepared that suited their own aesthetics.
Xio's previous clothes had been lost during the confrontation between Klein and the "Wishing Lamp", and Xio suddenly discovered that the clothing stores in the southern continent did not have the clothes that she needed to disguise as the "upper-class women" she wore.
In desperation, Xio, who was once a noble lady, could only choose a cake dress that was definitely not children's clothing, but that was worn by a young girl in this store...
Of course, it was Klein who paid for the clothes for the "poor" Xio. After all, this was Klein's request. Such exquisite clothes could allow them to disguise themselves as wealthy merchants or minor nobles in the Kingdom of Loen in a short period of time.
Interestingly, in the eyes of Hugh and Leonard, each other is now a member of an evil organization.
In Xio's opinion, Leonard's face was comparable to that of Mr. A, the organizer of the Aurora Society gathering that Fors had attended before. In addition, his obvious aura of "darkness" and "depravity" (actually the Requiem Master's Requiem) proved that Leonard was a member of the Aurora Society.
Of course, in Xio's eyes, Klein's identity was also questionable. He was a messenger of the Aurora Society, a follower of Mr. Fool, and a butler of the Goddess of Night. Xio couldn't tell Klein's true identity at all.
However, since Klein saved him, Xio was prepared to trust the man in front of him temporarily.
Leonard, who has the "grandfather" by his side, relies on Pales's obscure hints to guess that this girl, who is inseparable from the "sealed object" and has not died suddenly from its negative effects, may have some kind of symbiotic relationship with the "consciousness" inside it.
——After all, Leonard is a member of the Orthodox Church, and he is more proficient in the knowledge of Sealed Objects than Xio.
Combined with Pales on his body, Leonard can basically judge that Xio is connected to some hidden secret existence.
In the eyes of members of the Orthodox Church, sometimes the standard for judging whether a Beyonder is "evil" is not which existence he believes in, but whether he is at risk of losing control, whether he has the potential to threaten the people, or even the entire city or kingdom.
Leonard knew that this was the Extraordinary Person, a pitiful creature who was constantly fighting against danger and madness.
"let's go."
Seeing that the time was almost up, Klein checked out of the hotel and left with the two of them.
After the few of them walked into the alley, his body gradually changed into the original appearance of "German Sparrow".
Deep in the dark alley, Klein and the other two were quietly waiting for responses from the others.
As time passed, Cattleya brought Frank, Heath, and Nina, three extraordinary people who originally belonged to the "Star Pirates", to the previously agreed place, which was this dark alley.
A few minutes later, Sharon and Maric also came. The difference between the two was that Maric walked all the way here, while Sharon just floated out from the wall with an expressionless face.
However, after waiting for a while, until the time agreed upon was exceeded, Danitz still hadn't appeared.
"Where did 'Flame' go?"
After waiting for more than ten minutes, Nina, the "navigator" in the storm's path, complained impatiently. Seeing no one answering, she could only sigh and silently closed her mouth.
The "storm" path for women is also the grumpy old sister…
Klein was silent for a moment, then quickly stretched out his right hand and put it into his arms.
This subtle movement immediately caused several eyes that were hidden around Klein to turn around, and several of them looked at Klein in front of them at the same time.
Klein's right hand ignited with a faint green flame, which made his face look particularly eerie in the already dark alley.
If someone who is not familiar with the situation sees this scene, they would probably think that this group of people are gathered in the alley to conduct some terrible experiment to summon evil gods.
However, after the flame in Klein's right hand went out, a few burnt yellow hairs appeared in his hand.
In his pocket, the green gleam on the glass bottle containing the "Lost Homeland" gradually faded.
With the help of the magical ability of the glass bottle that sealed the "Lost Homeland", Klein directly reached his right hand into the bottle and found the hair that Danitz left on the ship.
He held the hair in his hand and used it as a medium for divination. He looked down at Xiou, who was standing to his right, and said to her in Gehrman's unique cold voice:
"cane."
He planned to use the "divination stick method" to divine Danitz's current location.
No matter how unreasonable Danitz was, after Edwina and Klein had established contact, Klein still believed that Danitz would strictly follow his requirements, or strictly speaking, Edwina's requirements.
After all, if you don't particularly like it…
——If we rule out the possibility that something went wrong with Danitz himself, then it is possible that he encountered something that he could not escape from.
Once he discovered something like this, Klein would need to use divination to confirm Danitz's current location.
Danitz didn't even have time to summon the information, so he might have been caught in a sudden battle.
While guessing where Danitz was and what had happened to him, Klein placed his hand on the cane that Xio handed over. He silently repeated Danitz's current location several times in his mind, then slowly raised his right hand.
After being freed from the support of Klein's right hand, the cane stood upright on the ground for a while before slowly falling toward the entrance of the alley.
But the next moment, Danitz came running from a distance, panting and covered in blood.
"Captain Sparrow, Captain Sparrow!"
While Danitz was running towards the alley, he shouted to Klein, "I, I met the captain of the sixth ship of 'Blood Admiral' Senior, Huntley. He seemed to have got my information from somewhere and ambushed me at the port just now!"
How come you're like this and remind me of the first time I met you? Klein wanted to cover his head, but for the sake of the integrity of Gehrman's character, he still kept his face straight and said seriously to Danis in front of him:
"What happened to you?"
"Huh, it's like this, Captain Sparrow." Danitz took a breath after walking in front of German Sparrow, and said to German Sparrow in front of him, "I met a subordinate of Admiral Blood, Captain Huntley of one of his ships. He seemed to have known that I was here from somewhere, and wanted to find the captain through me."
Like Frank, Danitz also did not call the captain Klein, but Edwina.
This is not right. Danitz is with me now and has no connection with Edwina...
No, they don't know that Edwina has cooperated with me. Perhaps the reason they are tracking Danitz is still the same as last time, and the purpose is the Death Key in the hands of Vice Admiral Iceberg?
Klein subconsciously thought that he knew that behind the "Blood Admiral" there is a great possibility that the Rose School believes in the "Mother Tree of Desire", which may mean that this action may be instructed by the top leaders of the Rose School...
It is also possible that I am overthinking, and this is just a plan by "Admiral of Blood" against "Vice Admiral of Iceberg"... Hehe, it is better that I am overthinking...
In this case, we must remind Edwina. After all, if Edwina is careless when others are targeting her, she may be attacked.
But it's still unclear who the hunter is and who the prey is…Senior thought he was hunting us, but we were also looking for his traces.
The corners of Klein's mouth curved up.
Thinking of this, Klein looked at Danitz and said to him in a cold voice: "Whose blood does this in your body belong to?"
"Ah?" Danitz was stunned for a moment, then he raised his nose and boasted to Gehrman in front of him,
"Of course that was the blood that splashed from Huntley's body. It just splashed on me. Although his strength is much stronger than before, he has just broken through to Sequence 7, so naturally he is no match for me."
Ah, yes, yes, yes... Klein, who clearly saw the wound on Danitz's leg, nodded silently and took a step forward.
He took out a small knife without a sharp edge from his bosom and said to Danitz in a low voice,
"Don't move."
What on earth does this lunatic want to do? I just boasted a little, it's not a death sentence...
Danitz was a little flustered at first, but after noticing that Germann was scraping the solidified blood on his body into powder and wrapping it in a piece of paper, even he knew what Germann was trying to do.
Danitz's eyes lit up:
"Captain Sparrow, are you planning to use blood to track Huntley?"
After thinking of this possibility, Danitz couldn't help but blurt out and said to Klein in front of him.
The corners of Klein's mouth curled up, forming a terrifying arc, revealing a smile that was a little crazy, but fit the "personality" of Graham:
"certainly."
"After all, I have been tracking the 'Blood Admiral' for so long, and now I finally have the chance to find him."
"Since you are here, let's go back to the boat."
Klein did not intend to directly divine the blood in his hand, because he knew that the sudden increase in sequence was an abnormal situation and might be related to the evil god.
He was afraid that he would accidentally divine the "Mother Tree of Desire" and be hit hard again in the gray fog.
Although his memory was sealed by himself with Sefirah Castle, he still knew that to some extent, the "Mother Tree of Desire" was stronger than the "True Creator" and the "Eternal Blazing Sun"! I
will start coding when I get back tonight. I may not be able to finish the next chapter. I will write it first. If I can't finish it today, I will make up for it tomorrow.
Either I will update twice today or twice tomorrowDangerChapter 207 Danger
"...get on board."
Klein quickly suppressed the bloodthirsty and crazy aura that he had deliberately exuded before, and returned to his usual cold and hard appearance.
He walked towards the unmanned coastline. After reaching the coastline, Klein released the "Lost Homeland" in his arms.
A rope made of shadows hung down and connected to the ground in front of Klein. Klein jumped lightly and landed on the rope like a cat.
With his clown-like balancing ability, Klein walked on the rope as if it were flat ground, and walked towards his boat step by step.
Looking at the "Lost Homeland" that had dyed the surrounding sea water pitch black, Klein couldn't help but wonder whether he should find a Beyonder with camouflage abilities to "herd" the "Lost Homeland" so that the "Lost Homeland" could acquire the ability to camouflage.
You know, because it is a sealed object, this ship with some demigod power has no way to perfectly restrain its own power.
A part of this power will leak out involuntarily, which will cause strange phenomena such as "darkness" in the outside world.
But Klein was just thinking about it. The only sequence that could be disguised was the "Faceless Man" sequence. Unfortunately, there were fewer Beyonders in the "Fool" path, and Klein couldn't find innocent people to herd.
He had already decided that the souls herded by both "Creeping Hunger" and "Lost Homeland" must be people who have committed heinous crimes.
In other words, the strength of the Storm Church in the southern continent is relatively weak. Otherwise, as long as Klein releases the "Lost Homeland", it will be quickly discovered by the Extraordinary people of the Storm Church and then reported to the church by the Extraordinary people.
You know, the priority of tracking the True Creator here at the Storm Lord is quite high. By that time, Klein suspected that there would even be a Sequence 3 Saint who would come to hunt him down personally.
(Note: The contradiction between the churches of the five paths of omniscience and omnipotence can be seen from Alger's words: "Understanding the abilities of the extraordinary people of the Sun Path is the basic skill of every extraordinary person in the Storm Church." If all the righteous gods are like this, then the true gods can be seen.)
If it were on land, it would be fine. Klein could hide in a big city with the extraordinary ability of the "Fool" path, so that the saints would not be able to locate him.
With Sefirah Castle as a cover, even if the angels divined personally, they would not be able to figure out their exact location. They could only rely on the carpet search of the Beyonders to find themselves, the "favored one of the Creator."
Many extraordinary people also do this, which is also an important reason why they are not discovered by official extraordinary people.
Of course, as ordinary extraordinary people, although they do not have the ability to resist divination, it is impossible for them to be tracked by a powerful being who truly possesses divinity. The difference in the difficulty of survival can be imagined.
The boatswain Nina commanded the zombie sailors around to raise the sails, while Maric gave orders to some zombies who were still in a trance one by one to correct the course of the ship.
After all, it is still daytime, and the "Lost Homeland" cannot use its spiritual flame to sail at high speed at will.
That would be like setting up a beacon on the sea that clearly states "I have a relationship with the true creator", which would simply attract the Lord of Storms to send people to investigate.
Klein stood on the deck, quietly watching the people who were driving the boat in an orderly manner. He looked so high-spirited as if the shipwreck Cattleya had encountered had never happened. Under the somewhat cold sunlight, he looked like an oil painting.
After the ship gradually stabilized and sailed towards the City of Generosity, Bayam, Cattleya walked forward and said to Klein in front of her:
"Captain Sparrow, should we hold a small gathering and have a simple exchange on the ship regularly?"
"Communication?" Klein looked at Cattleya in front of him, feeling somewhat puzzled. "Tell me in detail."
"You should also know that I was a member of the Moss Ascetic Order." Cattleya explained to Klein in front of her, "For the crew on our ship, although there are not many people, we have formed several relatively close groups among us."
"So, I think such a relaxed small gathering can help us build more connections and be more conducive to our subsequent cooperation with each other."
Should I say that she is worthy of being taught by the mysterious queen? Indeed, she has more experience as a captain before, so maybe I should listen to her. Before I traveled through time, I also heard that people who stay in one place for a long time will have various psychological problems.
However, considering that many of us have some special characteristics, I still need to do some divination before deciding...
Klein nodded and said to Cattleya in front of him,
"I'll give you an answer later."
"Okay." Cattleya nodded and walked below deck without saying anything else.
She planned to communicate with Frank and others first to provide some psychological preparation and comfort to the survivors in her pirate group.
After all, there aren't many survivors left on such a large ship...
Cattleya thought with some sadness that the survivors who were left behind had been dismissed by her in the southern continent. They were not extraordinary people with extraordinary abilities, and insisting on staying here would only increase the danger they would encounter.
Of course, Cattleya left part of her savings in the southern continent to these surviving pirates, hoping that they could live a better life here.
...
Klein stood in his captain's room, walked four steps counterclockwise along the four corners that were deliberately left empty, and walked into the Sefirah Castle.
He came here to divine what Cattleya had just said to him, to divine whether a shipboard gathering that could enhance the cohesion of the crew was feasible.
Haha, for the people on the ship, a relaxed gathering can indeed enhance cohesion. Before crossing, the boss often did this to the company's employees... It can be regarded as a potential PUA.
Klein silently complained a few words in his mind, took out a pendulum from his arms, closed his eyes, and silently repeated the question he was about to ask several times in his mind.
However, when Klein opened his eyes, he found that the pendulum in his hand was spinning rapidly!
It means that this matter is risky, and the risk is quite high!
Why is this the result? Klein couldn't help but feel strange. Looking at the pendulum in his hand, his expression suddenly became serious, and he thought about the divination words he had just said.
What he had just divined was, "Is it risky to hold a party on the boat according to Cattleya's suggestion?" From the result, it seemed that the party on the boat would be quite risky and would most likely endanger the lives of the participants.
In that case, let's try changing the divination statement and figure out where the risk lies… Klein thought for a moment and changed the sentence "Is there a risk?" to "Is there a risk to myself?"
However, when Klein opened his eyes this time, the pendulum in his hand gave a completely opposite answer from before.
Such a result made Klein frown. He held the pendulum in his hand and paused it before changing the last sentence of the divination to "Is there a risk to other members on the ship?"
The result of this divination was exactly the same as the first one!
- In other words, if the party was held on the boat, other people would be harmed? Why?
Klein was immediately confused. He tried to perform a dream divination, but because the conditions were not complete, he could not get a result.
Haha, as expected, divination is not omnipotent... Klein lowered his head slightly, thinking about what might have caused this situation.
Perhaps this has something to do with the high-level being I met. If one day I get into trouble and a high-level being uses my identity to sneak into the party, then my crew will probably be in trouble...
Alas, the enemies I have provoked are too high-ranking and too powerful, even demigods find it difficult to resist. This kind of gathering is still not secret enough, unlike the Tarot Club. Now Amon can't go up even if he wants to.
In terms of personality, there are two Beyonders with "Source" and an old consciousness in the Tarot Club, which can really help me keep my secrets and protect my identity. With the insurance of the Fallen Mother Goddess, even if Amon comes up again, I don't have to worry too much...
However, the gathering here is different. Although as my crew members, they may also be targeted by high-level extraordinary people like "Amon", their priority will definitely not be too high.
But if I become a closer party member and we have an emotional connection, it is very likely that people will use this as a weakness to threaten me and attack me.
Oh, now I finally understand why the killers in novels and anime are required not to care about anyone. For those people, such a thing is really fatal.
Klein thought silently in his heart and sighed.
After the divination was completed, Klein simulated the texture of a spirit falling and broke away from the gray fog.
...
The "Lost Homeland" was still sailing on the sea. According to the position on the nautical chart, the ship had already sailed out of the southern continent and was heading towards the Sonia Sea, using the turbulent sea under the Rorsted Islands as a cover.
Danitz on the other side was already imagining how he would brag to his companions after following Gehrman Sparrow to hunt down Blood Admiral Senior, while Frank on the other side was still thinking about how to grow mushrooms and was happily conducting experiments.
Cattleya walked to Klein's side and asked him, "Captain Sparrow, what do you think of the proposal I made earlier..."
"Put it on hold." Klein said in Gehrman's flat and cold voice, with a hint of suggestion in his tone:
"This is a good suggestion, but not right now."
He agreed with my opinion and it had a very good effect, but "not now"?
He is a Beyonder of the "Fortune Teller" path. So, it seems that he must have performed divination - was it the result of "divination" that found that such behavior was risky?
Cattleya thought about it but still couldn't figure out why such a gathering would be risky. She was silent for a while, decided to ignore the previous proposal, and said to Klein in front of her:
"Captain Sparrow, it is estimated that we will be close to the waters of the Sonia Sea in about two days. Where are we going to sail after that?"
Cattleya asked as she tried to guess what Klein was thinking. As the captain of the Star Pirates, Cattleya obviously had more experience in sailing. Since her proposal was rejected, she would also use other opportunities to increase her voice on the ship.
After the "Mysterious Queen" Bernadette told Cattleya about the fate she had seen, Cattleya really wanted to follow Klein on his adventure at sea.
The reason was simple. After losing most of her crew and her flagship, Cattleya was no longer able to maintain her position as a maritime admiral. In addition, she had no chance to operate at sea, thereby acquiring extraordinary characteristics and seeking opportunities for promotion.
Therefore, for Cattleya, she and Hermann were in a relationship where both of them would prosper together.
Considering that her queen had reminded her that the man in front of her had multiple identities, Cattleya also had to remain vigilant when cooperating with Gehrman Sparrow.
Klein obviously saw this, so he turned to look at Cattleya beside him and asked her,
"Do you have any suggestions for our voyage?"
"Yes." Cattleya said confidently:
"Considering that we are now wanted, there are also many frictions between the Beyonders of the Southern Continent and the navies of the Northern Continent."
At this point, she paused for a moment and said, "If you, Captain, don't have any plans, I suggest that we turn east from Tirinius Island and head directly into the Sonia Sea."
"At the same time, considering that Bayam's current manager, 'Sea King' Yan Cotman, is being restrained by 'Sea God' Kalvetuwa, this route is relatively safe."
Being restrained by the Sea God Kalvetuwa? Kalvetuwa is already dead. I even saw barbecue made from his meat... Klein was immediately confused.
No, it seems that Lao Gao must have obtained the extraordinary characteristics of Kalvetuwa, and then used his own "source" to take over the followers of the sea god, right?
From this point of view, if we disguise ourselves well, Bayam is not as dangerous as I thought. The question is, is Bayam a place worth going to?
Can we find clues about Senior and Ince Zangwill here? Is there a chance to find the materials for the subsequent potion? Can we find clues about the Death Cult?
Several thoughts flashed through his mind, and Klein nodded slightly, saying to Cattleya:
"Let's do as you say first, and we'll take this route."
Cattleya nodded slightly and prepared to order her boatswain Nina to change the course of the ship.
At this moment, thin and ethereal silk threads emerged from the air.
The thread was pushed aside by a hand, and the high-dimensional overlord walked out of it expressionlessly, carrying a backpack several times larger than his body.
"Nifeng Express, cash on delivery, thank you." The High-Dimensional Overlooker said politely to Klein in front of him, picked up his backpack with one hand, and let go, making a loud thumping sound.
What on earth did you send?!
Seeing the scene before his eyes, Klein was stunned.
-
The real Creator who was watching the live broadcast: Why did you have to fly over here with the lightning of the Disaster Priest?
The High-Dimensional Observer: If it weren't for Adam, I would have directly used the demigod ability of "Servant of the Veil" to transfer here.
The High-Dimensional Overlooker: ...Don't you understand why I can't use my demigod abilities?
I have to go to a meeting in the afternoon, so I'll post the second chapter in the evening
