Hearing Hobert's detailed description, Alger guessed, "Could it be that a devotee of the 'God of the Sea' is 'borrowing' the symbols of the Elven race? Or, is it..."
Alger suddenly had a bold guess, but because it was sowhat blasphemous, and because he was in front of The Fool, he didn't know how to say it for a mont.
Hobert already roughly understood what was going on, and he said, "Continue speaking, we'll discuss this issue later."
Alger nodded and continued to narrate: "At the ti, I was preparing to first collect so information before conducting further exploration, but after I left that sea area, I discovered that I seed to be targeted by the followers of the 'Sea God'.
"Previously, I had contact with so followers of the 'Sea God'. Although what they did was sowhat insane, as long as you didn't offend them, they were willing to have so exchanges and trades with .
"I didn't have any actions that would offend them, but the followers of the Sea God on t Island all cast hostile gazes at .
"Realizing that sothing was wrong, I imdiately left, and soon the devotees of the 'Sea God' caught up with . No matter what thods I used to evade them, they were always able to find . I spent two days and two nights maneuvering around them before finding an opportunity to eliminate them.
"However, I'm certain that new devotees will catch up soon. Therefore, I'm seeking help from everyone at the Tarot Gathering. How should I resolve the problem before ?"
Audrey raised her hand: "Mr. Hanged Man, I would like to ask a question first, what kind of god is the God of the Sea? I haven't heard of it."
"The Sea God is a deity worshiped on so colonial islands," Alger explained. "It is said that He is capricious and fond of blood sacrifices.
"So believers who pray for the calming of the waves will receive an accurate response from the God of the Sea; so believers who pray for the God of the Sea to calm the waves find that the God of the Sea makes the waves even bigger.
"I have heard more than once that the followers of the God of the Sea pleased their god with blood sacrifices, allowing them to obtain many storm domain charms. Of course, sotis it would turn all the participating believers into monsters."
Audrey was sowhat surprised: "There's such a god? This should be..."
She was about to say that this should be an evil god, but considering that Mr. Fool was not an orthodox deity either, such existences were also called evil gods in the orthodox churches.
Therefore, she couldn't continue speaking halfway through.
Just as Audrey hesitated whether or not to apologize to Mr. Fool, Hobert suddenly spoke, resolving the awkwardness: "Comparing Mr. Fool with this kind of wild god is disrespectful to Mr. Fool!"
Only then did Audrey naturally apologize to Mr. Fool: "Sorry, Mr. Fool, I shouldn't have said that."
At the sa ti, she was grateful to "Emperor" for helping her out of the predicant.
Klein smiled slightly, without making any response, as if this was sothing not worth his attention.
He appeared calm on the surface, but he was a little bit guilty inside, because he didn't even know what kind of god the God of the Sea was.
He was really a little afraid that "Hanged Man" or "Justice" would ask him about the information of the God of the Sea. With "Emperor's" words, Klein was slightly relieved. It didn't matter if he couldn't answer, after all, the level of the God of the Sea was too low.
Thinking of this, Klein beca even more guilty.
Hobert smiled and said, "Let's first solve the problem facing Mr. Hanged Man."
Alger asked, "What reward do you want?"
"I believe that as a mber of the Tarot Club, helping other mbers solve difficulties doesn't require any reward," Hobert followed up with, "I roughly understand what happened to you, and I can try to help you solve the difficulties, but if you need to provide an explanation, you need to pay so reward, because it involves so advanced knowledge."
Alger nodded: "Thank you for your generosity."
Hobert asked, "Did you bring anything out of the ruins?"
"I brought out a small piece of luminous coral, and a piece of jade engraved with elven patterns from the ruins," Alger said. "But when I discovered that the devotees of the God of the Sea seed to know my whereabouts, I threw all these things into the sea."
Hobert asked again, "Are there any items that suddenly appeared on your ship? Or any crew mbers who suddenly beca abnormal?"
"I checked carefully, and I didn't find such a situation."
As an old sea dog, Alger still had this vigilance.
After eliminating these possibilities, there was only one place left. Hobert asked again, "Have you checked the bottom of the ship?"
"I, I haven't checked," Alger said. "I'll check the bottom of the ship imdiately after the gathering ends."
It wasn't that Alger wasn't careful enough, but a blind spot, or a loophole, was sothing that people who spent ti at sea were more likely to overlook.
Hobert was now very good at finding such loopholes, and he said, "Driving underwater creatures to serve oneself is one of the abilities of the God of the Sea. If the problem really lies at the bottom of the ship, it shouldn't be difficult to find.
"If the problem isn't at the bottom of the ship, you can pray to The Fool, and I'll help you think about other possibilities."
The more Alger thought about it, the more he felt that the problem should be at the bottom of the ship: "Thank you for your help."
Hobert smiled and said, "As for why you have such an encounter, let ask you a few questions.
"Are the followers of 'God of the Sea' Kalvetua only in so sea areas?"
Alger was stunned, then nodded: "Yes."
"Among the followers of the God of the Sea, are there so elven patterns or cultural elents circulating?"
Alger recalled: "Yes!"
"Are you guessing that the God of the Sea is actually a surviving powerhouse of the Elven race? But you don't understand how he possesses so of the abilities that only gods have?"
Alger trembled: "Yes!"
"Wait," Audrey suddenly said, "Mr. Emperor, are you saying that the God of the Sea is an ordinary person, no, I an a Beyonder is acting as? Or an elf is acting as?"
This, such an idea is too blasphemous.
Klein behind the gray fog finally understood why "Emperor" called the God of the Sea a "wild god", it turned out that he was just a "High-Sequence" Beyonder.
"This is the content that needs to be paid for next," Hobert said, "Everyone, do you want to know the principles behind this?"
I want to know too much! Audrey clenched her fists, but she should be very financially strapped next, and she didn't know if she could afford this information fee.
Derrick, who hadn't spoken all along, also showed enough interest.
Alger simply asked, "What reward do you want?"
The three questions of "Emperor" just now had aroused all his curiosity. If the reward was not too high, he would be happy to get the answer.
"800 pounds!" Hobert said: "When the transaction is completed, you will find that it is absolutely worth the money."
Alger nodded, still within an acceptable range.
He was about to initiate the transaction, when he only heard Hobert say again: "You all seem to want to know, how about this, as a mber of the Tarot Club, I'll give you a discount.
"If only one person wants to know the answer, they need to pay 800 pounds. If two people want to know the answer, they only need to pay 500 pounds each. If three people want to trade with , they only need to pay 400 pounds each."
Klein behind the gray fog suppressed the urge to cover his face: Do you think this is Pinduoduo here? Why are you doing group buying?
