Chapter 382 Each Person's Guesses
After Cyril and "The Hermit" Gadriya finished their conversation, the palace hall fell silent for about ten seconds before everyone spontaneously began their free exchange.
Alger, the "Hanged Man," glanced at the "World" at the bottom and the "Fate" to the side. Seeing that neither of them intended to speak, he took the initiative to say, "A major event, or rather two major events, have recently occurred in the Roseside Islands."
"What is it now?" Audrey asked, somewhat surprised and curious.
Alger glanced subtly at Mr. "The Fool" at the head of the table, then said calmly, "Kavituwa has completely fallen, but the devout followers of 'Sea God' still occasionally receive a response."
"I know a devout believer in the sea god," he said, "who has returned in a new form and given the believers the Ten Commandments."
"The Ten Commandments?" Audrey asked curiously.
Alger briefly recounted the details of the Ten Commandments that he had learned from the followers of "Sea God".
The Hermit, Cattleya, first frowned, then subconsciously looked at Mr. Fool, who sat at the head of the mottled long table.
She still clearly remembers when she met Mr. Fool, he was holding a piece of milky white scepter.
The key point is that the scepter exudes an almost tangible aura of the sea and storms!
If it is actually Mr. Fool who is now responding to believers in place of "Sea God," then what is his purpose?
A further recovery is quietly eroding the authority belonging to the "Lord of the Storm," or perhaps both.
Audrey, who had been paying attention to the "Hermit" lady, noticed her looking at the "Fool" gentleman, and a hint of doubt flashed through her mind.
Why is she looking at Mr. Fool?
What does she know, or what has she guessed?
Kavituwa's complete demise was due to the "Book of Calamities" being taken from the ancient elven ruins, and this book is now in the possession of "Fate".
Besides Mr. Fate, Mr. World and the Hanged Man are also in Bayam, and they are all involved to varying degrees in the fall of Kavituwa, the "God of the Sea"...
Does this mean that Mr. Fool was also involved in the fall of Neptune Kavituva?
Perhaps the "sea god" responding to believers now is Mr. Fool.
Audrey's eyes suddenly lit up; the more she thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
Mr. Fool succeeded Mr. Sea God, but the equally important Book of Calamities was in Mr. Fate's possession.
Does this mean that "Fate" is acting on behalf of the will of another being involved in this matter?
The power, identity, and followers of the "Sea God," as well as the "Book of Calamities" left behind by Goshinam, are spoils of war belonging to two different beings.
If that's the case, then it's understandable that Mr. Fate and Mr. World appeared in Bayam at the same time. They were deeply involved in the events through cooperation, reaping benefits for the beings they represented.
But why is it Mr. World who represents Mr. Fool, and why is the Hanged Man also in Bayam, even though he joined the Tarot Club earlier than Mr. World?
As her thoughts drifted, she once again noticed the unique position of the "world".
In Tarot, "The Fool" is the first card, representing the beginning of everything, while "The World" is the last card, representing the end of everything.
Therefore... "Mr. World" should not be the position of "Mr. World" representing the followers of "Mr. Fool," but rather "Mr. World" is the representative among the followers of "Mr. Fool."
Having figured everything out, Audrey smiled slightly and looked at Alger, the "Hanged Man," opposite her, asking in a rather light tone, "Mr. 'Hanged Man,' what is the second important matter you mentioned?"
Alger noticed the change in Miss Justice's tone, but he wasn't curious; she had at most guessed that he already knew.
He turned his head to look at Sirion, then carefully chose his words and said, "Just last week, a chaotic battle involving multiple demigods and angels took place in Bayam, and in the end, an evil god also unleashed his power."
"Which specific evil god is it?"
This time, the "Hermit" Cattleya did not wait for Audrey to ask the question, but took the initiative to ask it herself.
Alger glanced at her, then calmly said, "Primordial Witch."
"Several witches from the Witch Cult were involved, along with a demigod from the Rose School, the Sea King who reigned over the Rose Islands," said Arne Coltman, and an angel I knew nothing about.
Cattleya looked at him with some surprise... Did "The Hanged Man" mean he was there at the time?
If I'm not mistaken, he's at most a Sequence 6 Extraordinary, yet he dares to appear near such a battlefield. Is it Mr. Fool protecting him?
Cyril looked at "The Hanged Man" Alger with some surprise... he didn't reveal Hermes' identity.
He paused, then chuckled softly, "It's nothing to keep secret. That unfamiliar angel is Hermes. Besides Him, there's also the former Death Archon of the Byron Empire, and an ancient dragon who survived from the Second Epoch."
On either side of the weathered long table, apart from Alger, who knew Hermes' identity in advance, everyone else stared wide-eyed almost simultaneously.
Hermes? Is it the Hermes who created the ancient Hermesian language?
One of the earliest masters of mysticism, and the founder of human mysticism.
He—no, He is still alive!
The Psychological Alchemy Society was founded largely because it found the relics left by Hermes. But if Hermes was still alive, why would he leave behind relics?
Could it be that he deliberately orchestrated the formation of the Psycho-Alchemy Society? Is he the true leader of the Psycho-Alchemy Society?
Audrey's thoughts kept wandering. She wanted to ask Hermes some questions, and whether Hermes was secretly influencing the Psycho-Alchemy Society.
However, he hesitated for a moment because of the newly joined "Hermit" lady.
Alger, the "Hanged Man," who was familiar with the situation, was equally astonished; the battle seemed even more chaotic than he had imagined.
"The Death Archon"...is he the one who killed Zilingus?
Was He summoned by "the world" or by "destiny"?
"Fate" knows the "Death Archon" who was once the Byron Empire, but "World" is favored by Mr. "Fool", and the "Death Archon" seems to be the same.
There's also the ancient dragon that survived from the Second Age. It should be an angel from the "spectator" pathway, just like Hermes. Could the "fate" have called Adam's name back then be related to this?
Or perhaps the ancient dragon and Hermes correspond to different beings who provided assistance?
In any case, "fate" has an extraordinary connection with the dragon, and this connection stems from the existence behind it.
Mr. Fool is an ancient being that is gradually reviving, and he and the being behind "Fate" are clearly steadfast allies.
According to ancient myths passed down in the Silver City where the "Sun" resides, in the ancient era of the Second Age, there were also factions among the ancient gods...
The more his thoughts wandered, the more alarmed and fearful Alger became. Finally, he abruptly gathered all his thoughts and lowered his head.
Audrey noticed his action and a hint of doubt flashed through her mind... What astonishing thing had Mr. "The Hanged Man" suddenly thought of?
Judging from Mr. "Fate's" supplement just now, he already knew about Hermes' existence, and it couldn't be Mr. "Death Archon". So, it was that ancient dragon who survived from the Second Age that made him think of something that made him lose control of his emotions.
When Audrey thought of Gu Long, she was reminded of the giant dragon she had seen in the ocean of the collective unconscious.
Could it also be an ancient dragon? Should we ask Mr. "Fate"?
As she pondered, she noticed the equally undisguised surprise on the "Hermit" lady's face, which suddenly made her feel much happier.
At this moment, the thoughts in the mind of "The Hermit" Cattleya were like the surface of the sea before a storm, unable to calm down for a long time:
Hermes, one of the earliest masters of mysticism, was once the "Death Consul" of the Byron Empire, and there is also an ancient dragon that survived from the Second Age!
Each of them is a being capable of shocking the entire mysterious world!
There were also demigods from the Rose School, the "Sea King" from the Storm Church, high-ranking witches from the Witch Cult, and even the "Primordial Witch" who intervened remotely.
What is the purpose of all these demigods, angels, and even evil gods fighting each other?
Her gaze swept around before settling on Sirion. The pirate general's intuition told her that this matter was closely related to "fate" at the Tarot meeting.
Is the level of expertise at Tarot Club too extreme?
The convener is someone like "The Fool," and the participants include a mysterious and powerful being like "Destiny," but there are also many extraordinary individuals of Sequence 8 and Sequence 7.
This is like a newly established organization that hasn't yet gotten on track...
Her gaze swept quickly over the members of the Tarot Club, further solidifying her belief.
Although most of the members are still very weak, each of them seems to represent a powerful force in both the real and mysterious worlds.
"Justice" should be a nobleman of Rune, "The Hanged Man" is related to the Church of Storms, and "The Moon" is a vampire who also seems to have joined the Church of the Earth Mother, which is what missionaries in Fenneport like to do.
The mysteries of "The Magician," "The Sun," and "The World" are not yet clear, but they are probably not as simple as they appear on the surface.
So what about me? Am I here because of the Morse Order or because of the Queen?
Judging from the recent changes in the bounty at sea, the Queen has successfully completed the ceremony; she—no, she is now Him.
Thinking of the "mysterious queen," Cattleya's emotions became somewhat complicated, and she even stopped thinking about the original question.
She seemed to see that tall, beautiful figure again, and hear the other person's calm, unyielding words: "Leave. Your fate is not in my hands..."
Emlyn lowered his head and silently counted on his fingers... Three, a total of three angels. If you include the "witch," there would definitely be more.
Even our vampire clan currently only has three dukes...
He sighed inwardly for a moment, then quickly composed himself.
What does this have to do with me? It won't affect my efforts to save the vampires, and it's not exactly an interesting thing!
Even if such a disaster were to occur nearby, the vampires have powerful figures who can protect us, and at worst we can pray to the Mother Goddess... uh, to Mr. "Fool".
Gathering his thoughts, he suddenly turned his head to look at "The Sun," Derrick, who was sitting quietly in his seat... Hmph, this guy is really good at pretending.
Or maybe he was scared out of his wits? Anyway, his Silver City definitely wouldn't have that many angelic demigods.
After a brief silence as everyone's thoughts wandered, Fors suddenly looked at Alger the Hanged Man and asked thoughtfully, "Mr. Hanged Man, is Bayam still there?"
Previously, a demigod-level "witch" could create the Backlund smog event. Now that so many demigods and angels have suddenly appeared in Bayam, she reasonably suspects that the city of Bayam has been wiped off the map.
Alger nodded: "Bayam didn't suffer much actual damage; only two streets were damaged."
"This must be the result of Aquaman's protection and the restraint of those demigods and angels."
"Bayam holds great significance for the Storm Church's maritime parish; if anyone causes large-scale destruction, the Lord of Storms" will likely unleash divine punishment directly.
After a brief pause, he added, "The official forces in Bayam have been on high alert lately, making it unsuitable for adventurers and pirates to roam."
At this point, his gaze lingered briefly on "The Hermit," "The World," and "Destiny," before he fell silent.
"Justice," Audrey glanced around, hesitated briefly, and then said, "I've been tracking the Mind Dragon lately."
"It all started when I overheard an ancient song about dragons and discovered the local dragon worship customs."
"I successfully remained conscious in the dream by relying on psychological suggestion, and used the dream as a springboard to enter the vast ocean of the collective unconscious..."
"I saw a real dragon deep in the ocean of the collective unconscious."
"Its body is like a small mountain, its surface is covered with huge, gray-white stone-like scales, and its eyes are pale gold and vertical."
Listening to Miss Justice's description, a hint of surprise flashed through the mind of "Hermit" Cattleya.
She understands psychological suggestion? Then she should be a "psychologist," so why would she need to buy a "psychologist"?
What are its extraordinary characteristics?
The disadvantages of repeatedly taking potions far outweigh the benefits, and even if they were made into magical items, they would simply overlap with her own extraordinary abilities, making it completely unnecessary.
Is she trying to give someone away, or has she already started training her own subordinates?
As Cattleya fell into thought, Audrey's story was nearing its end: "Gentlemen, if I wish to continue exploring, what suggestions do you have?"
"What should I be aware of, and what should I prepare in advance?"
