Compared to the past, Sun was clearly much smarter. He didn't clumsily rely on words to describe things.
After obtaining Mr. Fool's approval, he conjured scenes that he could recall, showing the exploration process and what he believed to be the key points in a discontinuous manner to The Hanging Man, Justice, Magicians, and The World. Then, he supplemented it with explanations.
The city walls that had collapsed in the darkness, the streets that passed through the destroyed buildings, the dust-covered white and blue under the illumination of the animal hide lanterns, the ancient temple propped up by stone pillars, the statue hanging upside down on a pitch-black cross, the series of murals that depicted the Fallen Creator bearing the blame for humanity, the abnormally beautiful "mushrooms," the statue's eyes that were strangely open on the altar, as well as the yellow-haired boy, Jack, who was hiding behind it, and other scenes took form. They were reflected in the eyes of the members of the Tarot in the most direct and realistic manner.
The gloomy style, the atmosphere of danger at every step, and the development that was filled with strange things made Audrey excited. She felt a strong sense of interest.
This is the situation around the City of Silver … It's more attractive than all the novels I've read … This is the charm of the mixture of mystery, the unknown, and horror … Of course, to the humans who live there, it's not a beautiful sight … Audrey's thoughts wandered, wishing that she could immediately become a demigod and head to the region ruled by darkness and storms to adventure.
The Fool Klein felt a little wistful and wistful as he watched.
He sighed because it wasn't easy for the City of Silver to be able to last until today in such an environment. He sighed because Little Sun wasn't sharp enough and didn't know much. Otherwise, he could've presented everything he had experienced in the form of a documentary or movie. It was absolutely exciting and attractive!
However, this way, the narration will take longer. My spirituality can't sustain everyone watching a movie here. Besides, the longer we stay above the gray fog, the higher the chances of something bad happening in the outside world … Klein suddenly felt a little relieved.
The Hanging Man Alger finished reading it quietly and thought about it carefully. He got Sun to present the few key points he had picked out on the long bronze table again. Among them was the mural of the Fallen Creator fighting against the six evil gods.
"Which evil god are they?" Alger looked at the octopus-headed monster with lightning wrapped around its body, black waves under its feet, a bird feather cloak on its back, and a trident in its hand.
Sun shook his head honestly.
"I don't know. I thought you guys would know each other."
Justice Audrey and Magicians Fors cast their gazes over at the same time. They carefully observed it a few times, but they still couldn't guess who it was.
They originally believed that these were six of the eight ancient gods in the legends of the City of Silver, but they couldn't find a suitable match. After all, there were dragons, elves, giants, phoenixes, and Annihilation Demonic Wolves among the ancient gods, but there was only one giant in the mural.
This … The Fool took a serious look, and his pupils nearly constricted.
He hadn't seen the mural clearly the first time because of his posture, but now, he finally realized that something was wrong.
This is very similar to the statues of the six gods I saw in the underground ruins of the Tudor family. However, one is a normal version, while the other is a corrupted and depraved version … It's really a little hard to look straight at, especially Earth Mother, the Lord of Storms, and the Eternal Blazing Sun. Not only have they been vilified as evil gods, but they're closer to ugly monsters … Klein didn't feel enlightened after finding the truth. He had expected the True Creator to vilify the six gods and distort their image.
However, I can't completely ignore the possibility of what this mural shows. Just like how I always believed that the orthodox gods didn't have human forms, only symbols. However, the statues in the underground ruins of the Tudor family have made me less certain … From the looks of it, the establishment of a deity's image goes through a long period of evolution, and there are many secrets hidden within … Seeing that Miss Justice was focused on examining the mural and wasn't paying attention to Mr. Fool's attitude, Klein immediately heaved a sigh of relief.
As this involved whether Little Sun could escape the strange predicament of repeating a short part of his life, he decided to tell her what he knew.
Of course, a lengthy introduction and presentation of the images of the six deities in the underground ruins didn't match The Fool's identity. He planned on controlling The World to complete this matter.
And this was also in line with his constant efforts to equate The World with Sherlock Moriarty.
The Fool should say "Evernight, Sun, Storm, Wisdom, Earth, Giant" in a profound and unfathomable manner. Then, he wouldn't give any explanation or give any additional descriptions … Klein let his imagination run wild for two seconds before making The World hoarsely speak.
"I've seen similar statues before."
After attracting everyone's attention, he paused and added,
"During an adventure exploring the ruins of the Fourth Epoch."
Audrey was very interested in this, but she maintained a basic level of restraint on the surface.
"Mr. World, what kind of statue is that? Can you show it to us? Of course, if you're unwilling, or if you need payment, we can discuss it again. "
"There's no need, because this can also resolve some of my doubts," The World said with a sinister smile.
He pretended to make a request to Mr. Fool, and after obtaining his permission, he conjured the statues of the six deities and their corresponding Sacred Emblems.
Resting on the full moon, the lady in the layered dress looked hazy, but she exuded an abnormally beautiful feeling. Her black dress also had specks of starlight, like the night sky. Together with the iconic Dark Sacred Emblem, Audrey immediately recognized it as the Evernight Goddess she believed in.
And this statue looked seventy to eighty percent similar to the evil god in the upper left corner of the mural. However, its face was closer to a human's, and there weren't any strange eyes hidden in the surroundings!
Blasphemy! This is blasphemy against the Goddess! Audrey suddenly felt a little angry, but she quickly calmed down.
As the most famous evil god, it's expected that the True Creator would allow his believers to vilify the Goddess … But why would there be a humanoid statue of the Goddess in the underground ruins … Isn't it said that orthodox gods only have symbols? Audrey frowned slightly and fell into deep thought.
The Hanging Man Alger was somewhat enlightened as he said with a sigh:
"So the mural is a distorted image of the six deities.
“? They really once had a human form … "
This might be the reason why the few Churches have always wanted to find the Forsaken Land of the Gods … And the Forsaken Land of the Gods is probably deep in the Sonia Sea. Yes, it definitely doesn't exist in a normal state. Otherwise, it's impossible for the deities not to discover it … Alger silently added.
Sun was first taken aback before he came to a realization.
"Mr. The Hanging Man, are these the deities like the Evernight Goddess and the Lord of Storms that you mentioned?"
"Yes," The Hanging Man gave an affirmative response.
“? What do they have to do with the apocalypse? What does it have to do with the land we live in being abandoned by the Lord? "Sun asked subconsciously.
Unfortunately, no one could answer him.
Magicians Fors raised her hand in puzzlement.
"Why isn't there a God of Steam and Machinery?"
This was the deity she believed in.
In the Northern and Southern Continents, there had always been seven deities!
"Rumor has it that the God of Steam and Machinery, who was originally the God of Craftsmanship, was only born in the Fourth Epoch. From the looks of it, it's true. Furthermore, the node of his birth seems to be in the middle or late Fourth Epoch, not the early or middle stages … "The Hanging Man said, half explaining and half guessing.
He had an unconcealable passion for such topics.
Is that so … Fors felt a baffling sense of guilt. This was because she had never seriously read the Holy Bible of Steam and Machinery. Her faith seemed to be just a habit.
Derrick didn't harp on the matter and instead asked, "What's the matter?
He asked, "Is this mural the key point?"
"Perhaps. You can try to break it, but don't, heh, don't let the Chief suspect." The Hanging Man originally wanted to say that he shouldn't attempt to recite the honorific name of one of the six deities. Otherwise? It was very likely that they would directly descend into the Forsaken Land of the Gods, but after careful consideration, he realized that Little Sun didn't know the corresponding honorific name.
"Alright, thank you, Mr. The Hanging Man. You are always so kind and passionate. Also, Miss Justice, Miss Magicians, Mr. World, all of you are equally kind," Derrick sincerely thanked them.
Kind? Passionate? The Hanging Man was momentarily at a loss for a response.
This was the first time someone had used such a term to describe him.
Seeing that they had finished their discussion, Klein suddenly recalled something. In the exploration of the True Creator's half-abandoned temple, the City of Silver had discovered the name "Rose Redemption," but this time, they didn't seem to pay attention to it.
I can't ignore it … According to the evil spirit in the underground ruins, this extremely secretive organization led by a fallen angel isn't much inferior to the Twilight Hermit Order. The "time cycle" might be their setup … With this in mind, The Fool, who was sitting on the high-back chair, leisurely adjusted his sitting posture and tapped the edge of the long mottled table with his fingers.
Audrey immediately turned her head and looked at Mr. Fool in excitement. She was waiting excitedly. She was waiting excitedly for a hint.
The Hanging Man, Sun, Magicians, and World also cast their expectant gazes at Mr. Fool.
In the thick fog, The Fool Klein chuckled.
"Rose Redemption."
"Rose Redemption"? What is this … The key to escaping this predicament? Yes, there's this name in the corner of a mural above the temple! "Sun" Derrick seemed to understand something.
The Hanging Man Alger, Audrey, and Magicians Fors also recalled and valued the name "Rose Redemption," but they were unable to fully understand the true meaning that Mr. Fool was trying to express.
"Honorable Mr. Fool, what does Rose Redemption represent?" Audrey raised her hand and took the initiative to ask.
This time, Klein didn't answer. All he did was laugh.
His thoughts were very simple. The organization Rose Redemption had a close relationship with the True Creator. No matter what happened in the temple, it could point to them in some way.
As for whether this name was the so-called key, Klein wasn't sure, nor was he worried. After all, the right to explain was in his hands.
