The reminder of "Emperor" was like reminding everyone that "water is a poison," creating a subversive cognitive illusion.
However, based on what Hobert said earlier, everyone imdiately understood: the cosmos is dangerous!
Cattleya simply asked, "Mr. Emperor, how many 'Above the Sequence' are there in the cosmos?"
Hobert replied, "I don't know."
This type of question cannot be answered for the ti being, at least not in this semi-free question format. It should wait until Klein becos an angel.
"I heard that there is a 'Naturism Sect' in the Rorsted Archipelago," Hobert continued, "As far as I know, it is a subordinate organization of the 'Rose School'.
"I heard rumors that the origin of this sect is that so Beyonders who loved astronomy accidentally saw sothing they shouldn't have seen with a telescope."
Klein behind the gray fog thought: I know too much about this sect, and I also know their connection with the 'Rose School'. I didn't expect their reckless behavior to be reflected in every aspect.
Fors was a little scared: Fortunately, although I like the cosmos, I have never used a telescope to look at it. Uh, speaking of which, although I like the cosmos, I rarely have ti to appreciate it. I used to be busy writing books, and now I'm busy with auction houses and entertainnt centers.
Audrey exclaid: Without the cosmos, life seems to be a lot less romantic! Huh? Now that I think about it, I rarely look at the cosmos! Not only because of Backlund's thick fog, but also in the manor in the fief, I rarely look at the cosmos.
"Little Sun" had no cosmos to see, and Alger and Emlyn didn't notice this.
Cattleya thought for a mont and suddenly asked, "Mr. Emperor, now that you ntion it, I suddenly recall that if it weren't for ritual needs or necessary mystical observations, I don't seem to look up at the cosmos.
"I didn't think much of it before, but now it seems a little unbelievable."
Hobert was slightly stunned before saying, "Perhaps, perhaps it is a kind of escape from our spirituality?"
He paused and added, "Not only Beyonders, but thinking about it, I have seen more than once in newspapers and magazines that people lant that modern people are too busy to even have ti to appreciate the cosmos.
"Could it be that everyone's spirituality is trying to avoid their gaze from coming into contact with the cosmos?"
Everyone was stunned. This idea was the first ti they had heard of it, but it seed to make so sense.
"Can ordinary people's spirituality also make such a reaction?" Fors asked the question in everyone's mind.
Hobert pondered for a mont before saying, "I didn't take ordinary people's spirituality too seriously before, but thinking about it carefully, it should be possible.
"After all, the danger in the cosmos is too great, so great that even without knowing the specific source of danger, it can still make people avoid it.
"Of course, this may also stem from the fear in people's deep consciousness. In ancient tis, soone may have seen that huge danger, and the degree of danger was so great that it could be written into the common consciousness of mankind.
"So, people's current spirituality is just a reaction based on subconscious information."
Finally, he spread his hands: "This is just my guess."
These words made the hall silent again.
Klein nodded secretly behind the gray fog: This is very mystical.
Audrey also thought for a few seconds and said, "Based on my experience of exploring the 'sea of collective subconscious' last ti, I seed to feel a common human fear in the human sea of collective subconscious.
"Logically speaking, those fears will affect people's subconscious and make us make stress responses from the subconscious."
Other mbers also recalled that they had previously discussed that those common human fears might include the fears of ancient people towards the ancient gods.
"Above the Sequence" should be more terrifying than the ancient gods. Fear of them must leave so indelible traces in the subconscious.
"This question cannot be verified for the ti being. We will fill in the specific theory when we have ti in the future." Hobert's words interrupted everyone's thoughts: "Anyway, try not to look up at the cosmos in the future."
Everyone felt that the "Emperor" made sense. After all, even Beyonders of the "Dream Weaver" pathway may not have in-depth research on human collective consciousness. Sitting here and imagining will only lead to so vague guesses.
Hobert continued, "The second point is, never respond to unknown calls.
"As ntioned in a piece of information I briefly announced earlier, I learned during the exploration of a tomb that an angel of the 'Door' pathway was corrupted.
"According to the literature in the tomb, the deceased Beyonder was a descendant of the Antigonus family, and they had been seeking ways to advance to an angel."
Klein and Fors listened to this information very carefully. Of course, they still rembered the information announced by the Emperor before.
At that ti, Klein really wanted to exchange more detailed information with the "Emperor", but he didn't have the money at the ti.
Only to hear the "Emperor" continue: "One of their 'High Sequence' Beyonders heard a call from the cosmos and, with the help of that call, beca an angel of the 'Door' pathway.
"But after becoming an angel, He began to uncontrollably want to go to the cosmos. Later, He was completely corrupted in the cosmos, and after returning from the cosmos, He corrupted His own people!"
Hobert said seriously, "This is an important revelation, and I believe that everyone has heard this before: Do not respond to any unknown calls!
"Because the call from the cosmos will not only corrupt a person, but also his relatives and friends."
Other mbers nodded slightly. They received more education on "do not pray to strangers", as for the point of not responding to strange calls, they did not hear many corresponding warnings.
Klein and Cattleya almost simultaneously thought: Roselle responded to a strange call and was corrupted as a result.
"The third point is to pay attention to those crazy, bloodthirsty, or poorly self-controlled Beyonders or organizations." Hobert said, "The Beyonders of the orthodox churches are basically very rational. Mr. Fool and the devotees of the 'Creator' generally have strong self-control.
"Those organizations that engage in bloody sacrifices or killings at every turn are without exception either affiliated with evil gods or related to 'Above the Sequence'.
"Like the 'Rose School' and the 'Naturism Sect' I ntioned earlier, these are, so far, organizations belonging to 'Above the Sequence'.
"Everyone must be vigilant, and if there is a chance, you can also strike them down."
Regarding this point, everyone also understood very well, and at the sa ti had a new understanding of the "Rose School".
Alger was even pondering: Could it be that the confrontation with "Above the Sequence" is a collaboration between Mr. Fool and the "Creator"?
Hobert continued: "The fourth point is sothing I discovered in my recent action: Be careful of those who have Beyonder abilities outside of the 22 pathways."
Other mbers were stunned. They originally thought that the following reminders were things that everyone had heard so much that their ears were growing calluses, but suddenly there was a "abilities outside of the 22 pathways"!
Before everyone could ask questions, Hobert further explained: "As we all know, all Beyonder abilities are within the scope of the 22 pathways, but in a recent action, I encountered so Beyonder abilities that were not in these scopes.
"According to the information announced to us by the 'Creator', these Beyonder abilities co from the Boons of those 'Above the Sequences'!
"Beyonders who have received grace can use so Beyonder abilities that we have not seen before."
Cattleya almost imdiately asked, "How long can these Beyonder abilities last?"
"As far as I know, it's similar to Beyonder abilities." Hobert replied, "As long as 'Above the Sequence' does not take it back, it can be used permanently."
This surprised everyone again. Audrey then asked, "How did 'Above the Sequence' do it?"
"The relevant theory is sothing I only recently figured out." Regarding this point, Hobert did not hide anything: "This is a bit similar to so of the blessings of the 'Lord of Storms' to the 'Storm Blessed'.
"The 'Storm Blessed' who has received this blessing can use many more abilities related to storms, lightning, and waves than the 'Storm Blessed' who has not received it."
Alger nodded slowly when he heard this. That was indeed the case.
Hobert continued, "Other gods should have similar abilities, but there is a problem with the duration.
"And 'Above the Sequence' is at a higher level than the gods, so Their Boon can be maintained for a long ti.
"The specific way to obtain power currently seems to be through special sacrificial rituals. I believe that in this ritual, the recipient should be transford by 'Above the Sequence' from the physical to the spiritual, so that they can use the grace ability for a long ti."
Klein manipulated "The World" and exclaid, "I didn't realize before that 'Above the Sequence' could influence the real world so deeply."
Others had similar exclamations in their hearts at this ti.
Emlyn then asked, "How should we deal with these recipients? If we co into contact with them, will we be corrupted?"
He thought that he would have to hunt the followers of "Primordial Moon" next. Regardless of whether "Primordial Moon" is the one on the crimson moon or the one who has been interfering with Him, they are both "Above the Sequence".
So his hunting may encounter the "recipients" that the "Emperor" said. For him, these are so unheard-of enemies.
"Currently, you can treat them as normal Beyonders." Hobert said, "Except that they are a bit extre in so things, there is currently no difference from other Beyonders.
"However, it should be noted that their Beyonder abilities have not been heard of before, and so are difficult to defend against."
Emlyn breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good."
Hobert reminded again: "The above are the points that everyone needs to pay attention to, and they are also the main ans by which 'Above the Sequence' currently influences the real world."
Cattleya frowned: If you don't say it, we wouldn't even know, there are such high-level dangers around us.
Klein thought of many things. First of all, he had a basic understanding of the state of the Outer Deities: Currently, they can only influence the real world to a very small extent.
Then he could be sure that there must be sothing blocking the invasion of 'Above the Sequence' into the North and South continents, possibly the seven gods, or so other force.
Others also launched corresponding associations, but basically they were lanting that this world is too dangerous.
After waiting for a few seconds, Klein saw that everyone was in contemplation, so he manipulated "The World" and said to Hobert: "I hope to get the information you just said about the Antigonus family."
Hobert nodded: "Yes, but this involves information such as Mr. 'Door' and 'Primordial Moon', so it cannot be exchanged for free, so my asking price is 1000 pounds!"
Klein was stunned. He didn't expect that it also involved "Primordial Moon". This Tarot Gathering was almost turning into a special session for "Primordial Moon".
At the sa ti, Fors and Cattleya's eyes lit up imdiately after hearing that it also involved Mr. 'Door'. They had already decided to join the transaction again.
Emlyn and Audrey also decided to join the transaction again after hearing that it was also related to "Primordial Moon".
Emlyn felt that "Primordial Moon" seed to be closely related to him, and Audrey was simply curious.
Alger and "Little Sun" were not very interested in this transaction. "Little Sun" was really not interested, because these "Above the Sequence" did not seem to have affected the "Forsaken Land of the Gods" yet.
And Alger was because he was relatively poor recently.
In the end, five mbers were willing to conduct the next transaction with the "Emperor", each splitting a reward of 200 pounds.
Hobert briefly explained the origin of that notebook. Klein then realized that the characteristics of the Human-skinned Shadow and the eyes of the Six-Winged Gargoyle that he had traded before were all obtained by Hobert in this operation.
Then Hobert began to briefly describe the contents of the notebook. The author of the notebook was Colin Antigonus. In Colin's ancestors' ti, there were still three demigods. They seed to often hear whispers from their ancestors.
So they believed that their ancestors should still be alive, but they didn't know where they were sealed?
One of the demigods went to find the legendary "Nation of the Evernight". It is said that their ancestors ca from there. Finally, he found clear clues and believed that the "Nation of the Evernight" should be in the Hornacis Mountains.
After making sufficient preparations, he went to the Hornacis Mountains to search, but he never returned.
Hearing this, Klein thought: Fortunately, I restrained my curiosity before and didn't go to the Hornacis Mountains. Even the demigods of the Antigonus family will disappear, let alone a "Marionettist".
Then he thought: In this case, the ancestors of the Antigonus family may indeed be sowhere in the Hornacis Mountains?
This reminded Klein of the scene he had divined before, the dilapidated palace, and the wriggling worms intertwined on the chair in the depths of the palace.
Hobert continued: "Colin's ancestors also tried to find the whereabouts of their ancestor Antigonus through sacrifices and prayers, but they never received a response.
"They were not discouraged. Finally, one day, with their unremitting efforts, they finally received a response, but everyone in that sacrifice lost control, or beca madn, and another demigod was written off."
Klein behind the gray fog smiled slightly: I also know this is a tragedy, but I really want to laugh.
Fors seed to understand sothing, saying, "Perhaps this is what a family of Beyonders is like. When there are no enemies to bring them danger, their ancestors are the greatest danger."
Thinking carefully, the Abraham family's situation is similar to that of the Antigonus family, except that the Abraham family had to search for Mr. Door because of a 'curse,' while the Antigonus family 'brought it upon themselves.'"
The other mbers participating in the transaction also had their own feelings, mostly lanting that the dangers of the mystical world are everywhere.
At this ti, 'The World' asked 'The Emperor' in a hoarse voice, "Is it true that the ancestor of the Antigonus family is in the Hornacis Mountains?"
Hobert smiled and said, "This question is not within the scope of this transaction."
He thought to himself: I need to charge more.
It's not that he's stingy, but this transaction was originally a friendly price, and he can't provide too much important information.
Klein didn't continue to ask. He already had a rough guess in his mind. Based on the information provided by Hobert, he now knew for sure that there was danger in the Hornacis Mountains, and he completely rejected the idea of going there. If he had to go there in the future, it wouldn't be too late to initiate further transactions with the Emperor.
Audrey asked curiously, "Mr. Emperor, why can their sacrifices receive a response? Does this an that their ancestor is really not dead? It's just that their state is very strange."
Klein secretly gave Audrey a thumbs up in his heart.
However, Hobert said, "The main transactions are about the Antigonus family and 'Mr. Door,' as well as the 'Primordial Moon.'
"I will not give a clear answer to this question for the ti being."
He paused and then said, "How about this, I will bundle so information and guesses about Adam, Amon, and Antigonus together, and we will conduct a transaction together when we have the opportunity.
"But I think, unless you need this information, there is no need to know these things."
Audrey nodded, indicating that she understood.
Then she recalled that 'The Emperor' had said a long ti ago that Antigonus had two friends, and she guessed that those two friends wouldn't be Amon and Adam, would they?
Hobert continued to describe the contents of the notebook. The only remaining demigod of the Antigonus family was originally an 'Scholar of Yore.' He accidentally obtained an Beyonder characteristic of the neighboring pathway, 'Planeswalker.'
With the help of a hidden existence, he beca an angel of the 'Door' pathway. This newly promoted angel was called Spike Antigonus.
According to Spike himself, the position of the hidden existence that provided help was very high, like a god of the 'Door' pathway, but not quite.
That hidden existence said that Antigonus's ancestor was sealed in a place with Him. Because of the special nature of the pathway, He could project power into the real world and hear his calls, but Antigonus could not do this.
In addition, the information given by this mysterious existence was very contradictory, sotis telling Spike to look for Him and rescue the ancestor of the Antigonus family, and sotis telling Spike not to go.
In the end, Spike responded to the call, also to rescue his ancestor, so he entered the cosmos.
Hearing this, the other mbers, based on so of the information previously announced by 'The Emperor,' were sowhat surprised that this angel nad Spike actually ca back later!
In theory, He should have been gone forever.
Hobert continued, "According to Spike's own account, He followed that call and ca to a strange planet.
"There seed to be traces of human activity there, with huge temples and large-scale cities.
"But now there were only wastelands left. Following the sound of the call, Spike ca to a deserted temple.
"In that temple, there were tall stone pillars and exquisite sculptures.
"At the end of the temple, there were magical doors stacked together.
"Through that door, you could see a beautiful full moon, which seed to be the moon hanging in the sky, but it looked so beautiful that you couldn't take your eyes off it.
"Then Spike heard that sacred voice, and He willingly knelt down on one knee, pledging allegiance to that voice, to the moon in front of Him."
Having had previous transactions, everyone imdiately realized that it was obviously the 'Primordial Moon'!
Then everyone thought of that door. Fors asked, "Is that stacked door 'Mr. Door'?"
Hobert said, "I think it's part of Mr. Door's power. According to so information about the 'high sequence' Beyonders of the 'Door' pathway given by the 'Creator,' we speculate that that planet may have once worshiped 'Mr. Door,' or there may be legends about 'Mr. Door' there. In short, the intelligent life on that planet built huge palaces for 'Mr. Door.'
"That civilization may have beco extinct after 'Mr. Door' was corrupted or sealed."
Another planet's civilization! Klein suddenly felt a sense of science fiction.
Audrey also learned today that 'high sequence' Beyonders can really affect the intelligent creatures of other planets, which made her couldn't help but imagine and yearn for it.
But in the end, she could only sigh: Unfortunately, the cosmos is too dangerous to go to other planets to see.
The most regretful was Fors: I can obviously go to other planets in the future to see other civilizations, but I can't go.
Cattleya, who heard this information for the first ti at this gathering, asked, "That is to say, 'Mr. Door' has been contaminating so Beyonders."
Hobert nodded: "Yes.
"So I said, if one day you understand the content of 'Mr. Door's call, either you have beco strong enough, or 'Mr. Door' is bewitching you to go to the cosmos."
Cattleya recalled 'The Emperor's' previous sigh and nodded thoughtfully.
Finally, Hobert said, "This angel nad Spike has forgotten that His original intention was to rescue His ancestor, which is enough to prove that He has been corrupted and has beco a loyal believer of the 'Primordial Moon.'"
Everyone nodded slowly, all expressing their approval of this conclusion.
With the end of this round of transactions, this Tarot Gathering was coming to an end.
After chatting about their respective encounters last week, Klein announced the end of the gathering.
Watching the mbers leave one by one, and completing the sacrifices and bestowal rituals between the mbers, Klein returned to the real world and took out the paper crane that had beco very fragile, gently unfolding it.
Then he planned to ask all the questions he had accumulated recently at once, so he sharpened the pencil with a knife, writing the letters very small: Soone wants to get good luck in a short period of ti and has offered a very good price. I wonder if you are interested?
Is your umbilical cord blood considered the blood of a mythical creature? If so, what price do I need to pay to get a drop?
Do you know how to make talismans with 'Worms of Ti'?
After writing it full, he carefully folded the paper crane again.
Then he fell on the bed and entered the dream world through ditation.
In a daze, Klein suddenly woke up and saw the desolate black plain.
He went all the way into the dark spire in the middle of the plain, passed through the chaotic layout, and ca to the depths of the tower.
Here, as usual, a circle of Tarot cards was scattered.
In the middle of the Tarot cards, a black baby carriage slid out of the shadows, with an unidentifiable baby wrapped in black silk lying inside.
Klein greeted politely: "Mr. 'Snake of Fate'."
Will Auceptin in baby form said "Hmm" and asked: "What kind of price did your friend who wants to get good luck temporarily offer?"
Klein said calmly: "Two 'Worms of Ti'!"
