The Way to Beco an Above the Sequence!
Everyone at this mont only had a vague concept of what it ant to be an Ancient Sun God. The "Emperor's" words made them realize that, just like becoming a Sequence 0 True God, there was a specific thod to becoming an Above the Sequence.
Moreover, this thod was unclear even to the usually knowledgeable Emperor.
Klein imdiately understood: What Roselle hadn't seen must be the content about how to beco an Above the Sequence!
Alger sighed: This is the "Blasphemy Slate," only such high-level information is worthy of its legendary status.
After a brief mont of surprise, Cattleya quickly cald down and organized her words to ask: "Where did the 'Blasphemy Slate' co from? I an, who summarized the way to beco an Above the Sequence?
"Also, who summarized the 22 relatively safe advancent thods on the first 'Blasphemy Slate'? And who recorded this information on the 'Blasphemy Slate'?
"Was it an ancient god? Or the legendary Original Creator?"
Hobert felt that he couldn't disclose too much detailed information about the first 'Blasphemy Slate' for the ti being, so he said: "The era when the first 'Blasphemy Slate' appeared is too long ago, and I don't have any relevant information here.
"However, I do know that the summary of how to beco an Above the Sequence on the second 'Blasphemy Slate' was completed by the Ancient Sun God, because He was an Above the Sequence.
"This is His great contribution to the Beyonder world!"
Cattleya nodded. She rembered that during a previous Tarot Gathering, the "Emperor" had said sothing similar.
She said: "Does that an the first 'Blasphemy Slate' should be from the Second Epoch, or even earlier, by soone who advanced to godhood in a relatively safe way?
"Not necessarily," Hobert said. "Like , I didn't receive systematic mystical training, but only occasionally ca into contact with mystical symbols. However, as I advanced, I gradually beca able to clearly feel the connection between Beyonder powers and those mystical symbols, and it was easy to understand their aning.
"Now, I can even understand the operating principles of most magic arrays."
Cattleya nodded: "I understand what you an. So things can be deduced from one's own Beyonder characteristics and a high sequence."
Hobert smiled: "I think so."
The conversation between the two made Audrey realize a problem: In the Beyonder world, mature concepts are very important. Hobert and the Hermit had roughly the sa level of understanding, so their communication was very efficient.
Hobert continued: "For the gods, the second 'Blasphemy Slate' ended the era of wars fought for various ridiculous reasons and ushered in an era of gambling for the position ofAbove the Sequence!
"Thus, the brand-new Fourth Epoch began!"
These words made everyone realize that the gods were already gambling to beco Above the Sequences at the beginning of the Fourth Epoch!
Klein sighed: As a Sequence 5, he was completely unaware of such things. The concept of "god" was like a huge dividing line. Below this dividing line were the masses, and above this dividing line, one had completely transcended the thoughts and consciousness of ordinary people.
Audrey felt as if she had seen a distant peak, but all she could do at the mont was praise the peak because she was too far away from it.
Alger smiled wryly: Clearly, my goal before joining the Tarot Club was just to beco a Sequence 5, and later I had the ambition to beco a demigod. Now, I'm almost unable to define my goal.
The other mbers also had their own feelings. For a while, the entire hall was silent.
After a long while, Klein manipulated "The World" to ask: "Where are the two 'Blasphemy Slates' now? Or rather, who has them?
Hobert vaguely replied: "It is said that the Ancient Sun God once held the first 'Blasphemy Slate'. After His fall, it disappeared and should now be in the 'Forsaken Land of the Gods'. The second 'Blasphemy Slate' seems to be in Adam's hands."
Klein nodded almost imperceptibly. This was related to the diary of Emperor Roselle he had seen. Roselle had seen the second "Blasphemy Slate," but the way to beco an Ancient Sun God was hidden by Adam.
Cattleya suddenly said: "Can we see the 'Blasphemy Slate' as the light brought to the Beyonder world by the Ancient Sun God?
"I rember Mr. Emperor once said that the first 'Blasphemy Slate' appeared in the Second Epoch, and the Ancient Sun God also appeared in the late Second Epoch.
"And now Adam, the son of the Ancient Sun God, holds the second 'Blasphemy Slate'. I believe this 'Blasphemy Slate' is also closely related to the Ancient Sun God."
Emlyn and Derrick realized this after hearing Cattleya's summary!
Audrey sighed again: The Hermit's logical ability is very strong. She can think of so much information so quickly!
"You can say that," Hobert continued to announce more information to everyone: "According to reliable information I have obtained, the second 'Blasphemy Slate' seems to be the remains of the Ancient Sun God, fused with a part of His will."
Everyone imdiately showed varying degrees of surprise.
Alger thought to himself: It's always called "Blasphemy Slate," as if it were a naturally ford object. I didn't expect its "main material" to be the remains of the Ancient Sun God!
Klein wasn't very surprised: No wonder the "Emperor" guessed that the content displayed on the "Blasphemy Slate" was a mode similar to direct communication with spiritual bodies, since it fused the will of the Ancient Sun God!
Emlyn had the urge to scratch his head: The "Blasphemy Slate" is not a stone tablet, but it's made of remains? It sounds terrifying!
Fors suddenly thought: I wonder if I can write books with my will after I continue to advance and beco an angel? That way, I don't have to write with a pen, and I can write very quickly!
After a slight pause, Cattleya asked: "Whose will ford the first 'Blasphemy Slate'?"
"I don't know!" Hobert said bluntly: "However, what is certain is that the first 'Blasphemy Slate' appeared before the Ancient Sun God appeared."
Alger followed up with his analysis: "Could the first 'Blasphemy Slate' be a product of the First Epoch?"
Derrick looked at "The Hanged Man" and couldn't help but mutter to himself: "The First Epoch!"
For City of Silver, the First Epoch was also a very distant history with only very vague records.
Klein also sighed: Has the Tarot Club's information exchange finally touched on the First Epoch? Then he realized that he currently had almost no information about the First Epoch.
Hobert smiled: "It's not impossible."
Cattleya sighed: "The First Epoch! The Disorder Epoch! It's a pity that there doesn't seem to be any relevant records left."
This epoch was like a blank in history. Everyone knew of its existence, but then they realized that they had no knowledge of it.
After everyone fantasized for a while, Hobert said: "The above is all the information I know about the 'Blasphemy Slate'."
Then he said: "Please, Miss Justice, give us psychological cues, because information about the Above the Sequence is not suitable to bring into the real world."
Of course, everyone had no objections. After accepting Audrey's psychological cues, they thanked the "Emperor," after all, this information was very valuable and helped them sort out their thoughts.
After this topic ended, Alger curiously asked the "Emperor": "Mr. Emperor, which pathway's Beyonder were we talking to in the burial hall at that ti?"
Although Alger couldn't see the "Emperor's" expression, he felt that the "Emperor's" expression was a little strange at this ti. He only heard the "Emperor" say: "That should be Adam!"
Alger almost slipped off his chair: "A... Adam!"
He originally thought that it was at most an angel-level Beyonder, or even only Sequence 3, because he didn't feel any threat at the ti.
Also, because he had encountered a long-haired monster with stealth and petrification abilities outside the church, he thought it was just a Beyonder with stealth abilities!
Unexpectedly, that was a King of Angels!
He actually witnessed... no, heard a King of Angels talking to the "Emperor"!
This gave him the feeling that characters from myths had walked into the real world!
Klein wasn't so surprised because he had already guessed it.
The other mbers' eyes went back and forth between the "Emperor" and "The Hanged Man": Where exactly did they explore last week? Not only did they see such a huge amount of information in the murals, but they also encountered Adam!
Fors frowned: Hobert didn't tell about such an important thing before attending the Tarot Gathering! Well, maybe his relevant mories were sealed, and he only "rembered" after coming to the "Gray Fog"
After a mont of surprise, Audrey asked Hobert: "What does Adam look like? How did you escape from there?"
"I don't know," Hobert said with a wry smile: "If He wants to hide Himself, with our current level, we might not find out until we die.
"Well, it's even possible that after we landed on that island, He had already been observing us all the ti, watching us move forward, watching us fight.
"Not only watching us, but at that ti, our thoughts and what we thought in our hearts were like a book placed in a library that Adam could read. To Him, we had no secrets."
Although Hobert sealed the key mories he could think of, he was still afraid that Adam would learn so key information.
Fortunately, Hobert also knew that Adam couldn't be so idle and wouldn't stare at a demigod and two Sequence 5s without letting go.
Of course, the key is that all three of them have backers!
Everyone was once again shocked by the "Emperor's" description. Such an ability is too terrible.
Audrey found it a little unbelievable: "Is this pathway so terrifying at the King of Angels level?"
"It should be said that every pathway is quite terrifying at the King of Angels level," Hobert said with a smile: "But the abilities of Adam and Amon are particularly strange!"
In fact, after the "Seer" pathway reaches "High Sequence," no, from Sequence 5 onwards, it also begins to develop in a strange direction.
Klein actually felt a little chilly behind his back: It's hard to imagine that our exploration team may have had four people at the ti! Anyway, I only rember there being three people.
Cattleya also said: "What a terrifying ability! Although we know that Mr. Fool has been providing us with protection, let's imagine that there is actually another mber eavesdropping on our gathering.
"If soone hadn't reminded us, we wouldn't have realized his existence at all."
This description made everyone feel insecure and unconsciously looked at the empty seats around them.
Hobert smiled and said: "Adam wouldn't care too much about small characters like us!"
Alger nodded: "That's right."
He rembered that Adam seed more concerned about the state of the "Creator" at the ti.
However, the two people's "harmonious duet" did not comfort everyone, and everyone still felt a little insecure.
Hobert continued: "As for how we escaped."
He smiled: "Of course, we were let go. Don't you think we can escape from the gaze of a King of Angels?
"Even if we escaped by chance, as long as we are still in this world, we are very likely to be poisoned by a poisonous insect that accidentally falls into the kettle while drinking water, or be killed by an Beyonder's ability out of control or the ability of a sealed artifact not being controlled while walking on the road as usual. In short, it is easy to die from a small or extrely small probability of coincidence."
This reminded Klein of Anderson's encounter, but that guy encountered an attack from the "Spectator" pathway's "psychological cue" aspect, making everyone around him regard Anderson as an enemy.
However, those ordinary people's thods of attack were very clever, or rather, it seed that they were really able to attack Anderson because of various coincidences.
The scene at that ti was still vivid in Klein's mind, and even now he doesn't know what the demigod of the "Spectator" pathway looks like.
Hobert's description made everyone understand the "Spectator's" attack thods even more, and everyone almost ca to a relatively unified conclusion: It is impossible to defend against!
Finally, Alger sighed: "Fortunately, we have the gaze of Mr. Fool and the 'Creator', and Adam did not embarrass us."
He believed that even if these two did not always pay attention to that exploration operation, judging from Adam's aning, he was also very clear that the "Emperor" and "The World" were the blessed ones of two great figures.
Then the other mbers also realized that even if they encountered the legendary Adam, "The Hanged Man" and the others had successfully escaped, and at least so far they seed to be in no danger.
That is to say, Adam also has a certain fear of the "Fool" and the "Creator" and will not easily attack Their blessed ones.
Klein behind the gray fog thought to himself: I am more inclined to believe that Adam hopes that this mural will be more widely spread through the "Fool" and the "Creator".
After all, these two "evil gods" are in a similar situation to His Adam, and their forces are not orthodox churches, so they are considered "gray forces" and do not resist this type of information.
With the end of this topic, everyone felt that they had gained too many surprises at this Tarot Gathering.
After a mont of silence, Emlyn cleared his throat: "I hope to rent a mystical item with a strong offensive ability to complete the next hunt."
Audrey was very interested in this form: "Rent?
"Oh, yes, with Mr. Fool's witness, we can indeed conduct rental transactions with confidence!"
"Exactly!" Emlyn exclaid inwardly: Truly a clever lady.
He smiled and said, "At other gatherings of Beyonders, transactions involving the rental of mystical items are almost impossible to achieve due to a lack of sufficient trust and a strong guarantee.
"But at the Tarot Club, with the witness of Mr. Fool, who possesses god-like power, we can all confidently engage in such transactions."
Emlyn's idea seed to open a new door for everyone!
Even Klein marveled: This guy's thought process is really different. I didn't even think of conducting such transactions. Should I collect a certain percentage as a security deposit? Heh, forget it. That would really make 'The Fool' a middleman.
Fors suddenly realized that 'Leymano's Travels' was very suitable for such transactions: "I have a mystical item here that I can rent to you…"
She briefly described the abilities and negative effects of 'Leymano's Travels,' then considered it slightly and said, "The rental fee is 50 pounds per day.
"But there's one requirent: you can freely use the abilities in the book, but when you return it, it must have two additional pages of abilities.
"If you use the demigod-level abilities, it must have four additional pages of abilities.
"The abilities recorded from you can be repeated and have no level restrictions!"
Emlyn was a little surprised: "It actually has demigod-level abilities?"
Then this hunt is guaranteed!
Even if he encounters a situation like the 'Moon Puppet' last ti, he can easily solve it!
Cattleya nodded slightly: After all, Miss Magician also has an organization behind her! They can definitely provide her with the opportunity to record demigod-level abilities.
Alger sighed: Miss Magician's background is not simple.
Audrey and Klein's gazes almost simultaneously turned towards Hobert. Those demigod abilities must have been provided by him!
Emlyn asked, "Is it convenient to reveal what those demigod-level abilities are?"
"Yes." Fors secretly glanced at Hobert before saying, "There are demigod-level 'Distortion,' 'Disorder,' and 'Exploit'!"
Klein and Audrey almost simultaneously thought in their hearts: As expected!
Cattleya was a little strange: Aren't these all abilities of the 'Lawyer' pathway? Have the Abraham family mbers changed pathways?
Fors continued: "The demigod who recorded these abilities once tested them. Using this level of 'Distortion' and 'Disorder' on a Sequence 6 Beyonder can prevent the opponent from breaking free from the corresponding state for 12 to 15 seconds!"
Speaking of this, she felt a little proud in her heart.
Although this may reveal so information about Hobert's abilities, just like wanting to find a place to talk about how handso her boyfriend is, Fors has a strong desire to confide in this regard.
Or rather, it is not suitable to confide in this information elsewhere. Only at the Tarot Club, when other mbers do not know Hobert's true identity, is it okay to talk about it without bringing any danger to Hobert.
Moreover, Hobert does not object to such a statent. This is equivalent to a public advertisent. If everyone has problems that cannot be solved and it is inconvenient to ask 'The Fool' for help, they can request the help of 'The Emperor.'
Fair prices and guaranteed after-sales service!
Emlyn was a little surprised when he heard this: "Are you serious?"
Then, as long as he can find a way to get close to the hunting target, throwing a 'Disorder' over will end the hunt.
Then he added, "Do I really only need to record four of my own abilities?"
Klein nodded slowly. He had personally experienced this. In the process of defeating the six-winged gargoyle, Hobert used a similar 'Disorder' ability, and as a result, that monster did not break free from the state Hobert imposed until it died.
Cattleya exclaid: This is the qualitative change of a demigod!
Alger also recalled the process of the 'Emperor' eliminating the six-winged gargoyle: Sequence 6 is as fragile as a child in front of a demigod!
He doesn't have much contact with the 'Emperor,' and he has never t the 'Magician' in the real world, so he never thought that these two would be a couple.
Fors suddenly rembered one of Hobert's words, so she smiled and responded to Emlyn: "This is a benefit of the Tarot Club!"
"But I still want to thank you for providing the mystical item and the explanation just now." After thanking her, Emlyn asked, "Can you explain the 'Exploit' ability again?"
"This is an ability I like very much." Fors smiled and said, "It can extend the duration of so states or continuous abilities that are beneficial to oneself.
"Using Sequence 6 as an example, the duration of this level of state or ability can be extended by at least one and a half tis.
"It can also instantly end all negative effects and ntal attacks suffered.
"If used on enemies, it can end so of their abilities early, such as the 'Dawn Sword' and 'Dawn Armor' summoned by the 'Dawn Paladin.'
"Moreover, it can also be used on sealed artifacts, such as making a Grade 2 sealed artifact unusable for 5 to 10 seconds, or strengthening and prolonging the consequences and duration of the sealed artifact's negative effects."
Klein exclaid: The main point of this ability is to catch people off guard! I can imagine that if 'Creeping Hunger' suddenly cannot be used normally, it will not only cause imasurable consequences but also undermine my confidence in battle.
Cattleya frowned and thought: "Exploit should also be able to end so spells and ritual magic early. This ability is very restraining to my abilities! Fortunately, I haven't encountered a demigod-level 'Lawyer' pathway opponent before.
After listening to the explanation, Emlyn said, "I want to rent this mystical item! Hmm, I'll start renting it from the day after tomorrow!"
Fors smiled and said, "Okay."
After this transaction ended, Derrick took the initiative to say, "I just learned a new piece of information. It turns out that the forr Chief of City of Silver did not die. He just built a mausoleum for himself and lived in it.
"However, he hasn't appeared for a long ti, so many people, including , thought he was dead.
"I heard that the 'Six-mber Council' is planning to open the forr Chief's mausoleum. Will such an action bring danger to City of Silver?"
Hobert suggested, "Regarding mausoleums, it is easy to associate them with Beyonders of the 'Death' pathway!"
"That's right." Alger thought so too. Then he asked "The Sun", "Was your forr Chief also on the 'Warrior' pathway?"
"Little Sun" nodded: "Yes, he was once a 'Demon Hunter'."
"He may have found the corresponding Beyonder characteristics and potion formula and tried to jump to an adjacent pathway." Alger guessed. Then he asked:
"Has there ever been a Sequence 3 of the 'Warrior' pathway in City of Silver, or in the history of City of Silver?"
Derrick tried hard to think: "It seems not, at least not now."
"Then, can we assu that there is so reason that hinders the advancent of the City of Silver demigods?" Alger once again made a guess based on the clues provided by Derrick.
He said: "In order to obtain stronger power, in order to try to find a new way out, perhaps your forr Chief hoped to be promoted to Sequence 3 of an adjacent pathway."
Derrick nodded, very much agreeing with Mr. "Hanged Man's" guess. City of Silver has been trying for more than two thousand years, and there are too many tragic stories.
Audrey asked curiously, "Mr. Hanged Man, if the current Six-mber Council wants to open the forr Chief's mausoleum, does it an that his advancent failed? Or is it for other purposes? What kind of consequences will such an action lead to?"
Derrick nodded repeatedly. He also had such questions.
Klein glanced at the "Death" card on the bronze long table: Perhaps there was a problem with the forr Chief's advancent ritual.
He thought that the "Emperor" should also know this, so he didn't let "The World" take the initiative to remind him.
"I don't know either." Alger answered while looking at the "Emperor" again.
The aning was obvious: The knowledgeable "Emperor" might know the answer.
So "Little Sun" and other mbers looked at the "Emperor" again.
"I heard that the ritual for promoting to Sequence 3 of the 'Death' pathway requires a mausoleum of one's own." Hobert reminded again, "The forr Chief failed to co out on his own, probably because the advancent process was not very smooth."
He said: "This is inevitable because no one knows whether the potion formula in the forr Chief's hand is complete.
"Even if you know the complete ritual, each advancent after Sequence 6 is very dangerous. This is when the role of Beyonder organizations is reflected.
"As far as I know, there are actually so techniques for designing the ritual during advancent.
"But City of Silver should not have such information and can only rely on their own exploration."
Everyone seed to see City of Silver, which had been in a state of exploration for more than two thousand years, gradually becoming majestic as it walked to the present step by step.
Hobert said to Derrick: "There is too little information currently known. It is not clear where the problem is, so there is no way to guess the consequences of this matter.
"I suggest you inquire more to see if you can get more information. After having more information, everyone will help you analyze it."
Derrick was slightly stunned: "Okay, Mr. Emperor, I will try my best!"
After this topic ended, "The World" said to Hobert: "You ntioned earlier that the way to temporarily obtain good luck has been answered. You have to wait a little longer to find a suitable opportunity to obtain it.
"The other party is very satisfied with the price you offered. You can pay in advance, or you can wait until the ti is right to pay."
Hobert smiled and said, "I will offer a sacrifice to Mr. Fool around 5 o'clock.
"Well, the large amount of cash I acquired from the Beyonder characteristics was also sacrificed at that ti."
Klein manipulated "The World": "Okay."
At this point, this Tarot Club ca to an end. After chatting about so interesting things that happened last week, Klein announced the end of this Tarot Club.
...
Forsaken Land of the Gods, City of Silver.
Returning to the real world, Derrick looked at the candle on the table as usual. Fortunately, it was not extinguished.
Then he stared at the dim roof for a while. When discussing the forr Chief's problem, he could feel the respect of other mbers.
He recalled the Emperor's help to him all along, allowing him to conduct transactions with the outside world more conveniently. He believed that the Emperor's help was precisely because of such psychology.
This made Derrick feel both proud and sad.
Pride because City of Silver has never given up. It is comndable to constantly explore and persevere.
Sad because they have to do this!
Then, Derrick thought of the murals displayed by the "Hanged Man". He lay on the bed, and tears flowed uncontrollably.
At the Tarot Club, he had been trying his best to restrain his grief.
The pain that he had suppressed in his heart now erged and beca uncontrollable.
Derrick did not wipe his tears. He vowed that this was the last ti he would cry! He vowed that if the sun did not return, he would be the sun of City of Silver! He vowed to protect City of Silver forever from the invasion of evil gods such as the "True Creator"!
...
Northern Continent, Feysac Kingdom, South Colson area, Green adow Manor.
Hobert and Fors returned to the real world together again. The two did not rush to get up.
Fors held Hobert's hand: "Thinking about it now, City of Silver is not easy."
"Yes." Hobert squeezed Fors's soft hand: "So help if you can."
Then he got up and said: "I have to go back to Backlund. I spent too much money at this gathering."
Fors smiled and said: "But the harvest is not small."
Hobert put on his coat and said, "Well," "There are no social engagents tonight. We will have dinner together at the Lord's Mansion."
"Okay."
Hobert kissed Fors on the forehead and used "Traveling" to return to Backlund. He opened the safe and started counting money.
He calculated that the cost of this Tarot Club was 28,850 pounds, plus 6,500 pounds for acquiring the Black-haired Baboon and Psychedelic Wind Chi Tree yesterday, and 13,000 pounds for helping "Little Sun" purchase the potion formula. The cost for these two days was as high as 48,350 pounds!
And this ti, Hobert's inco at the Tarot Club, not counting the 4 Beyonder ingredients from "Little Sun", and deducting Fors's 500 pounds, the final inco was 5,500 pounds!
Then he still needs to sacrifice 42,850 pounds to "The Fool"!
Looking at the gold pounds in the second safe also bottoming out, Hobert couldn't help but sigh: Have I been spending too much money lately?
This acquisition will take so ti to recover the capital, and Hobert is now investing in the construction of Longtail Island at all costs. Although he used "Creator Logistics" to save a lot of money, he has already invested more than 20,000 pounds in just over a month.
The "Earl of Light" light bulb factory and wire factory have been mass-produced. The initial investnt is very large, and Hobert has recently invested more than 20,000 pounds.
In order to seize the rule of Longtail Island, Hobert has also spent nearly 90,000 pounds. Fortunately, with the cooperation of Bishop Jodi, about 50,000 pounds have been "repatriated" so far, otherwise, Hobert's money in the safe would not be enough to pay for this expense at the Tarot Club.
Hobert returned to the "Nation of Disorder" and "bestowed" upon himself three "Worms of Ti." As he prepared to leave the "Nation of Disorder," he glanced at the 150,000 pounds and over 80,000 gold Lire stored there.
This money ca from large transactions with Miss Sharon and Simpson. Because Hobert had plenty of money recently, he hadn't touched these savings.
He hesitated for a mont, deciding to leave the deposit untouched for now. There was still around 15,000 pounds in cash in the safe, which should last him for a while.
After counting the money and taking the "Worms of Ti," it was already past 4:30 PM. Hobert simply perford the sacrifice to "The Fool" ahead of ti.
Then, he conducted the "bestowal" ritual and obtained the Beyonder characteristics and materials traded at the Tarot Gathering.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, he sacrificed the traded items to the "Nation of Disorder," sealing what needed to be sealed and shattering what needed to be shattered.
By the ti he returned to the Lord's manor in South Colson, it was already past 5 PM.
Fors and Donna were already waiting in the dining room. Hobert smiled and said, "I heard we're having fish tonight?"
"That's right," Donna replied with a smile. "I caught so big fish at the dockyard island when I was off yesterday!"
Just as Hobert was about to complint her, Helen, the captain of the Special Operations Departnt's Second Team, hurried in from outside: "Lord! It's fortunate you're at the manor. Sothing major has happened on the West Bank."
Hobert was taken aback: "The Blood Sanctify Sect isn't attacking again, are they?"
"We can't rule out that possibility!" Helen said. "An entire village has already died! Teacher Dunn is also at the scene."
"He believes it was an attack by an Beyonder of the 'Death' pathway. Teacher Dunn organized an encirclent once, but they got away!
"It can't be ruled out that they are helpers hired by the Blood Sanctify Sect, because they are very familiar with the situation on the West Bank!"
Hobert frowned: "You're saying an entire village has died?"
"That's right!"
Hobert stood up and picked up his cane: "We'll go take a look at the West Bank imdiately."
Fors and Donna wanted to go too, but because Hobert only had one mystical item with "travel" abilities, he had Helen arrange to pick them up later.
Supporting Helen's shoulder, Hobert arrived at the West Bank.
They arrived at a valley with lush vegetation, but among the vegetation were many white skeletons.
In the distance, there were even small hills made of various bones, about the size of a mound.
Dunn, Elliott, and others were not far away. Elliott was the captain of the extraordinary team provided to Hobert by the Balk family, and is currently undergoing training as an official Beyonder in Jeffrey City.
Once Elliott completely digests the "Baron of Corruption" potion, he will take the "ntor of Disorder" potion provided by Hobert, becoming a Sequence 5.
Because the case required a large number of people, Dunn also called them in for support.
In addition, there were several mbers of the Second Team, who were the main force investigating the case.
After Hobert appeared, Dunn led the team over: "This case needs your help."
Then he pointed to a man in his thirties with light yellow hair: "This is Raymond of the Second Team. His team was the first to discover the Beyonder elents of this incident."
Raymond stepped forward and respectfully called out: "Lord!"
Then he began to report: "In the past week, the security team of Lobi Town has received several similar reports. Basically, people in each village have discovered that soone seems to be lurking around the cetery at night.
"The security team in the town sent people to investigate and found that there were cases of corpses being stolen.
"During the investigation, they encountered attacks similar to zombies, so they handed the case over to the Special Operations Departnt.
"After divination, we found that the corpses were actually crawling out of their graves on their own, so we determined that this was a Beyonder case.
"After careful investigation, we found that anomalies actually started appearing three weeks ago. At that ti, the corpses of people who died in Lobi Town disappeared, and were found in a very remote place the next day."
Hobert was stunned: "Three weeks ago?"
"Yes, yes."
Hobert nodded. It was probably around that ti that Mr. Azik ca to Jeffrey Territory.
Although he had only heard the beginning, he could almost be certain that this case was related to an Beyonder in the "Death" domain, and it might not be a helper of the Blood Sanctify Sect.
After all, the Blood Sanctify Sect is not a small organization, and it is unlikely that they would ask Beyonders from other pathways to help them raid Jeffrey Territory.
To be precise, according to the intelligence gathered in the last few months, the Blood Sanctify Sect has only tried to infiltrate Jeffrey Territory, and there has been no sign of a large-scale attack.
Raymond continued to report that after their investigation and ambush, they found nothing unusual. Until the day before yesterday, Mike reported to the town governnt. After Raymond and the other two communicated with him, they realized that Mike was already dead!
They returned to the village before Mike and found that the people in the village were also dead, but they didn't seem to realize that they were dead and were still working as usual.
Raymond and others did not find any useful clues. When they were about to leave the village, they found a pale white skeleton in the village.
Just as they were about to pick up the skeleton, it turned into powder in front of them.
At the sa ti, everyone in the village seed to suddenly realize sothing. After saying goodbye to their families, or after so unbelievable crying or screaming, they all turned into corpses.
Raymond, who had lost the lead, asked Dunn for help. Dunn arrived at the scene in the evening.
Based on his experience, the skeleton should have been left in the village by an Beyonder of the "Death" pathway, allowing the villagers to move as Zombies.
And the corpses that crawled out of the graves before should also be the effect of this skeleton.
This inference was made because Dunn took out a map, marked the location of the skeleton, and also marked the locations where cases such as corpses crawling out of the cetery had occurred before. Obviously, the location of the skeleton was in the very center.
Hobert couldn't help but admire after seeing the map marked by Dunn: Professional things should be done by professional people. For such cases, only experienced people like Dunn can quickly sort out the broken clues and find new ones.
