"Justice" Audrey asked, "Emperor, is the scale of the 'Nation of the Evernight' small? Or are there few deceased people there?"
Answering this question was "The World," or rather, Klein, who graduated from the history departnt: "According to the ruins found on the mountain top, the 'Nation of the Evernight' has at least a city that can accommodate tens of thousands of people, as well as corresponding villages and towns."
Audrey frowned: "Then, there should be many deceased people, right? Of course, the number of deceased people each day may not be large, but for a country of this size, it would accumulate to a large number."
"Emperor" Hobert pondered how to answer before saying, "I said earlier that Antigonus was born as a mythical creature, aning he was an angel from birth.
"And angels were called demigods in ancient tis. They can already do many things that seem like miracles to us!
"Or to put it simply, after becoming a Sequence 2, they are even more like gods, possessing powers and abilities that we can hardly imagine.
"For example, they can manipulate marionettes in units of ten thousand."
"Hanged Man" exclaid, "If he were a general, he could launch a dium-sized war with his marionettes."
Other mbers had similar thoughts. In their view, this was more like a miracle!
This was the first ti they felt that angels could exhibit god-like powers!
Klein was more concerned: "Why does he need so many marionettes?"
Hobert weighed it in his heart and decided to keep this secret for now. After all, this isn't the 'Lawyer' pathway, nor is it the Sequence 1 advancent ritual for the adjacent pathway 'Arbiter.' It's the kind of information that would be strange for a 'Lawyer' pathway demigod to know.
So, he lied, "I'm not very sure either, but considering that Amon needs to use his avatars to stabilize his state, does he also need a large number of marionettes to stabilize his state?"
Klein nodded slightly, feeling that this thod of stabilizing one's state was quite good.
He sotis worries about needing believers to stabilize his state in the future.
Because that ans he must establish his own church and develop his own power.
If he could solve this problem with marionettes, that would be great.
Cattleya asked, "So, so miracles that we find difficult to understand may be things that those angels or gods have to do?"
Could this concept be used to explain the 'Hidden Sage' chasing after Beyonders to instill knowledge?
Hobert didn't know how to answer this question: "Maybe so."
Cattleya nodded slowly: Then a new question arises, "Why does the 'Hidden Sage' chase after us to instill knowledge? Can't he solve the problems he encounters in other ways?"
Audrey exclaid, "I still can't imagine what it would be like for a city of tens of thousands of people to be under the control of one person's will? Would those people be doing the sa actions and saying the sa words?
"Goddess, living in such a city, how could the residents of the 'Nation of the Evernight' think that such a bizarre thing is the resurrection of loved ones?"
Through "Justice's" description, everyone seed to imagine such a bizarre scene.
In a city, so residents' movents and language are normal, while a portion of the residents, regardless of gender or age, are doing the sa actions and saying the sa words.
Hobert smiled, "This may be the help brought by divinity. Well, I'm not sure about the specific operations, but we can speculate.
"What if we design a personality, life, and identity for a marionette, and then just connect it with a 'spirit body thread,' without managing it, and the marionette can operate on its own according to these designs?"
Sitting at the head of the table, Klein suddenly looked at "The World" sitting opposite him. At that mont, he seed to see "The World" reveal a strange smile.
But soon, he breathed a sigh of relief. He was just scaring himself.
That's just a puppet! Klein comforted himself: As long as it's a marionette, the spirit body thread is under my control, and it's impossible for him to do anything beyond my expectations.
Audrey exclaid, "Unbelievable!"
Alger said, "Maybe this is the power of God."
He lowered his head and glanced at the head of the bronze long table. Cattleya also had a similar action. They both knew that this question could get a clear answer from "The Fool."
But they didn't dare to look directly, only daring to look at that mysterious gray fog.
"The Fool" seed not to notice their gazes and did not offer an explanation.
They didn't dare to ask either, after all, they couldn't figure out the thoughts of the gods. Asking such a question might offend Mr. Fool.
At this ti, "The Moon" Emlyn suddenly asked, "Excuse , can the Beyonders of this pathway give life to dolls? I an, can they make dolls move on their own?"
Klein quickly made the gray fog cover himself, he was afraid that everyone would see "The Fool" twitching the corner of his mouth!
Hobert also slapped his forehead: This brain hole is also quite bizarre.
Seeing that everyone's expressions were a bit strange, Emlyn didn't feel that there was anything special about his question: "We're just doing so discussions, aren't we?"
"That's right!" Cattleya seed to understand sothing: "I don't think so."
She explained, "I heard that to make a marionette, you need to control the other party's 'spirit body thread,' and dolls don't seem to have 'spirit body threads.'"
Even "The Sun" Derrick understood: Mr. Moon likes dolls? Isn't that sothing only children play with?
Although resources are scarce in City of Silver, there is also the concept of toys, but being laughed at by classmates if you still play with toys after going to school.
Emlyn's disappointnt was evident: "That's a pity."
Originally, Klein wanted to tease him, saying that "Seers" can give "spirit body threads" to so items after reaching "high sequence", but he thought about it and didn't say it.
If Emlyn really asks him to give life to his doll in the future, he is really afraid of turning this guy into a marionette, lest he do sothing disrespectful to life.
After "The Moon's" interruption, a rather serious and bizarre discussion could no longer be serious or bizarre.
Hobert cleared his throat and continued, "The great 'Creator' said that around the early Fourth Epoch, Antigonus advanced to Sequence 1 and began to operate in the Northern Continent.
"This is linked to the information I obtained from other channels before. Antigonus first pledged allegiance to the Solomon Empire and later supported the Tudor Empire.
"His colleagues should be familiar to everyone, Mr. 'Door,' Amon and Adam!"
Suddenly, the mysterious "Nation of the Evernight" was linked to the history that everyone was familiar with.
Hobert continued, "What I'm going to say next has nothing to do with the 'Nation of the Evernight' and the 'Mother of the Sky,' but it's a secret about the Tudor Empire."
This is also one of the reasons why Hobert asked each of them for "help" worth 1000 pounds.
As for the source of this information, Hobert explained it this way: "This information cos from the notes of a mber of the Tudor family, and the credibility is quite high."
Everyone never doubted the source of information from "Emperor." Hobert said this purely out of guilt.
He said, "Adam and Amon helped Antigonus beco the King of Angels. This process is truly unbelievable."
Other mbers, including the Fool at the head of the table, straightened their backs. This is the specific thod to beco the King of Angels. When "Emperor" guessed the way to beco the King of Angels before, everyone was very interested.
Even if they don't have the opportunity to beco the King of Angels, it doesn't prevent them from wanting to hear how to beco the King of Angels.
But that ti, he only said a rough idea. This ti, there will be specific operations.
Of course, Klein is the one who most wants to get this information, after all, that is the way for the "Seer" pathway to beco the King of Angels!
Everyone held their breath and looked at "Emperor," only to hear him say, "First, they captured a demigod of the Solomon Empire. Adam perford deep hypnosis and corresponding mory transplantation, making the other party think that he was Antigonus.
"Then, with Antigonus's cooperation, Amon stole his identity and fate. Antigonus used his corresponding abilities to combine the identity and fate in Amon's hands with the experintal subject.
"The demigod of the Solomon Empire began to live as Antigonus and actively tried to accommodate the uniqueness of the 'Seer' pathway after a period of ti, but ultimately failed and lost control.
"At this ti, Antigonus lifted his previous abilities, allowing his identity and fate to return to Amon's hands. Amon ended the theft and returned them to the original owner.
"In this way, Antigonus successfully accommodated the uniqueness and beca the King of Angels."
Everyone was collectively silent for a few seconds, and then their questions ca one after another.
First, Audrey asked, "Adam can do 'mory transplantation,' this, this is really unbelievable."
Originally, she thought that if Adam wanted not to be noticed by everyone, using psychological hints would make everyone not notice him. This was already a very terrifying ability.
But unexpectedly, Adam once again refreshed her understanding of a "high sequence" Spectator, and can actually "transplant mories"!
Just imagine, this is the ability to turn one person into another!
Audrey's heart imdiately appeared with such a superficial concept: A and B are enemies, A and C are friends, A asks Adam to help him avenge, so Adam transplants C's mory to B, then A has two friends, and the enemy's personality disappears.
Just thinking about it, she felt cold in her heart.
Hobert vaguely replied, "I'm not very sure about this either, but I said before that the source of this information is relatively reliable, and Adam should have such ability!"
Derrick suddenly asked, "I wonder if Adam can preserve the mories of the dead and then transplant them to another person, um, is this a resurrection in so sense?"
He first thought that it would be great if there was a way to preserve his parents' mories before.
Emlyn said, "You should ask this, transplanting the mory of a dying person to a young person, is this a resurrection in so sense?"
Fors felt that this was very similar to the ideas of so science fiction novels, so she asked, "Then the question is, is this living person the dying person? Or the young person?"
Hobert suddenly clapped his hands: "This is the ability of the King of Angels level. We, as ordinary Beyonders, should not use universal morals and consciousness to think about these things!
"Because this will only consu our energy, and the final result of thinking is of no use to us!
"I suggest that the discussion of this issue ends here. When everyone has enough divinity, perhaps there will be no such problems."
Other mbers either nodded or used body movents to express their approval. This issue seems to be difficult to have a result.
Alger then asked, "Didn't you say just now that people who have their fate stolen will lose all contact with this world? Is it because Antigonus is a Sequence 1 that he was not hard in this regard?"
Hobert also felt that this question was difficult to answer. He pondered for a while before saying, "I think Amon did sothing, or Sequence 1 can last longer in a state without fate."
He only rembered that this happened, but the use of Beyonder abilities can only be explained by speculation, and before that, Hobert did not make corresponding speculations.
Cattleya then asked, "Where did Antigonus's uniqueness co from?"
That is the uniqueness, not potatoes that can be seen everywhere on the roadside.
Hobert had an impression of this: "There are two corresponding pieces of information about this. One is picked up when the 'Annihilation Demonic Wolf' fell.
"The other piece of information shows that because of the 'Law of Beyonder characteristics Convergence' Antigonus encountered the uniqueness of the pathway."
Hobert spread his hands: "Both of these statents are reasonable, and I have not found any relevant clear records, so I don't know which one is closer to the truth."
Everyone also realized that this was after all sothing that happened more than a thousand years ago. If Antigonus himself did not leave corresponding records, or knowledgeable people left corresponding notes, it is indeed difficult to restore such details.
Finally, Klein manipulated "The World" to say, "Why did they do this? I an, does every pathway have to do this to beco the King of Angels? Or can this effectively avoid madness and loss of control after accommodating the uniqueness?"
Afraid that Hobert didn't understand, he explained, "What I an is, if it's just to avoid losing control, then can't Amon simply steal the loss of control when it occurs?
"Adam can also make certain psychological hints to keep Antigonus sane when he loses control."
In fact, there is so risk in asking this, after all, "The Fool" is like the true god of this pathway, but as a blessed one, he doesn't know why?
But this information is very important, and Klein must ask clearly.
Moreover, "The Fool" will not tell all the information of the pathway to the blessed one, so asking this is not a big problem and is worth the risk.
"I understand what you an." Hobert said, "They obviously have simpler and more practical thods, why would they make things so complicated?"
"The World" nodded, indicating that was exactly what he ant.
Hobert pondered for a mont, then tentatively speculated, "I'm not entirely sure why, but I suspect that accommodating the Uniqueness might require a certain ritual?"
He spread his hands. "Although accommodating the Uniqueness isn't a true advancent, the risks should still be considerable. Using a ritual as an aid would make sense."
Klein slowly nodded, finding this conjecture quite reasonable.
Then he asked, "Why did Amon and Adam help Antigonus? Was it rely to enhance the Tudor Empire's strength?"
Thinking about it, the two brothers had done quite a bit during the Fourth Epoch, seizing dici's chance to beco a god and helping Tudor establish their empire.
Only today did he learn that they had also helped Antigonus accommodate the Uniqueness.
"I think there are two reasons," Hobert said. "First, Antigonus likely had a deal with Tudor, and Tudor asked the brothers for help. Second, Amon was willing to help.
"First, besides Mr. 'Door' truly supporting Tudor, most other great nobles were essentially forced to choose to support Tudor.
"For example, Adam and Amon. We previously traded information about the death of the Ancient Sun God, so everyone should understand that those two brothers certainly wouldn't support Trunsoest, who was favored by the Six Gods.
"It's said that Amon had so conflicts with Solomon, but I'm not sure what they were. However, the brothers certainly wouldn't support the Solomon Empire, which was clearly at a disadvantage and constantly seeking a way out.
"Ultimately, they basically had no choice but to support the Tudor Empire.
"There was also another great noble, Tamara. As far as I know, she betrayed Trunsoest due to unfair treatnt from the Six Gods and had no choice but to rely on Tudor.
"So, to win over the wavering Antigonus, wouldn't Tudor promise to help him accommodate the Uniqueness?"
"The World" gave a muffled "Mm," indicating that he thought "The Emperor's" guess was reasonable.
Audrey thought, 'Is this the politics of the Beyonder world? It's similar to the tactics used by current politicians. Well, whether it involves Beyonder abilities or not, the thods of vying for benefits are largely the sa.'
Alger crossed his arms. "The Emperor's" reasoning process has given a more concrete understanding of the Tudor Empire's situation during the Fourth Epoch. It seems the struggles of the four emperors weren't as complicated as I imagined.
Cattleya, however, noticed Tamara ntioned by "The Emperor": Besides the trade with "The Emperor," I've also seen so fragnted records about this family elsewhere. It sounds like this family has quite a story as well.
"Now, for the second reason," Hobert said, "Amon was also very willing to conduct this experint. After all, he and Antigonus are from adjacent pathways, and he was eager to participate in the process of accommodating the Uniqueness in this pathway, to observe the process."
As for Amon's goals of using this experint to test the extent of the Celestial Worthy's awakening, to dilute and resist the Celestial Worthy's consciousness, and so on, this information was too secret and not suitable for Hobert to reveal publicly at this ti.
Klein, behind the gray fog, always felt that Amon wouldn't be so kind. After all, Amon was born with the Uniqueness, so what was there to observe? But Klein couldn't clearly state Amon's specific purpose.
At this mont, Emlyn, who didn't know about "The Fool's" pathway information, suddenly asked, "Did Antigonus beco a god in the end?"
Audrey was slightly surprised, feeling that "The Moon's" question was disrespectful to Mr. Fool, but considering that Mr. Moon hadn't joined the Tarot Club when Hobert announced Mr. Fool's pathway, he might not know about it at all.
Alger couldn't help but secretly glance at the gray fog above: Could Mr. Fool be Antigonus? After all, this great noble from the Fourth Epoch seed to have completely disappeared after the Blood Emperor's fall. No one knew if he was still alive.
After realizing that the atmosphere in the hall was sowhat tense, Cattleya observed "The Sun," who rarely concealed his emotions, and through so recollections, roughly concluded that Mr. Fool and Antigonus were from the sa pathway, but she wasn't sure.
Emlyn also sensed that the atmosphere was a bit off: "Is, is there sothing wrong with my question?"
"There's nothing wrong with it," Hobert said with a smile. "Antigonus didn't succeed, and couldn't have succeeded."
Emlyn was slightly stunned: "Why do you say that?"
Hobert pondered for a mont: "Because he couldn't obtain all the Beyonder characteristics needed to advance to a true god."
Alger imdiately understood "The Emperor's" aning: Mr. Fool is not Antigonus! Because Mr. Fool possesses so of the key Beyonder characteristics, Antigonus couldn't have succeeded!
Audrey had a similar idea, and at the sa ti, she thought: Maybe due to unknown reasons, Mr. Fool lost most of his Beyonder characteristics while sleeping, and then Antigonus obtained so of them by chance. When Mr. Fool woke up from his slumber, he took back those Beyonder characteristics!
Then she thought: So, is Mr. Fool the "Annihilation Demonic Wolf" from the Second Epoch?
She didn't continue to think about it, because that idea was too blasphemous!
Fors speculated: Was Amon helping Antigonus accommodate the Uniqueness to resist Mr. Fool, who was from an adjacent pathway? As long as Antigonus beca stronger, Mr. Fool, who was sleeping at the ti, would beco weaker and wouldn't pose a threat to Amon?
Through "The Emperor's" vague answer and her previous speculation about Mr. Fool's state, Cattleya was already certain that Mr. Fool was the true god of the "Seer" pathway!
At this ti, "The Fool" Klein still didn't give any reaction to everyone's discussion. He knew that he should give so reaction at this ti, but because he didn't know the specific situation of this matter, he didn't dare to give too clear of a reaction.
In the end, he felt that it was better not to give any reaction.
He could just step in and knock them down a peg when the mbers dared to directly discuss "The Fool."
Finally, he sighed in relief: Hobert seems to know so inside information, but now is not the ti to ask about it. Or rather, it's fortunate that he knows so inside information, giving "The Fool" "room to exist," otherwise I would have thought that this was Antigonus's palace?
Hobert thought: Brother Fool, I can only help you this much. The rest is up to you.
Realizing that the atmosphere in the hall was still a bit off, Emlyn didn't continue to ask.
Hobert quickly skipped over this topic: "After the Blood Emperor's fall, Antigonus also disappeared. As for the 'Nation of the Evernight,' as everyone knows, it was destroyed by the Church of the Evernight Goddess.
"At the sa ti, the great 'Creator' also told a shocking piece of news: The Evernight Goddess is actually of the sa race as Antigonus and the 'Mother of the Sky.'"
