Chapter 258 Amon and Adam (The bonus chapter content has been split and included in these three chapters)
After a moment, He withdrew His gaze from the "Red Priest" card and said calmly:
"Some aspects of this blasphemous card have been enhanced. It now has a strong aggregation effect on all things in the 'Hunter' and 'Witch' pathways, with aggregation centered around it."
"This aggregation is bidirectional. If you don't want to frequently encounter 'hunters' and 'witches', you can choose to seal it, but it cannot be completely sealed."
"I understand." Cyril nodded, not paying too much attention to the issue.
Anyway, when you don't need it, just throw it on Klein's gray mist. No matter how strong the aggregation is, it will become ineffective there.
As his thoughts drifted, he heard Adam's soft voice:
"You have completed the first phase of this mission. You can either continue to explore further information or choose to leave and go to the next location to continue playing the role of the recorder."
"This progress is sufficient to settle your payment; you can now consider the scripts you need to arrange."
Sirion raised an eyebrow slightly, asking with great curiosity:
"This mission has a second phase? What is it?"
Adam calmly replied, "Find out the current state of the 'City of Calamity's' activated will, and the pool's position."
...In other words, if conditions are right, cultivating the "City of Calamity" to become "the root cause of natural disasters" is also an option.
Tsk, Chick is really doing badly.
Composing himself, he looked at Adam and said thoughtfully:
"I will try, but this is estimated to take a long time."
"At least in that special mirror world, I didn't detect any trace of the will of the City of Calamity."
Adam nodded slightly: "We don't lack time right now."
"So, have you decided what kind of script you want?"
Cyril frowned and pondered for a long while before speaking:
"Hmm... could it influence the deal between the Witch Cult and the Rune Royal Family, allowing me to obtain the 'Conqueror' extraordinary trait?"
Adam nodded calmly: "I can create opportunities for you, but whether you can take away that 'conqueror' characteristic is up to you to work for."
The writer's script also needs to be plausible, a matter that Chick has been paying close attention to. He will detect any overly obvious or illogical elements in advance and take appropriate action.
Cyril nodded slightly: "That's no problem."
He then changed the subject and chatted with Adam for a while, mainly asking about the history of the Second and Third Ages, to which Adam answered.
After his conversation with Adam, before leaving the Church of Bones, he recorded a demigod-level "psychological invisibility" from Adam under the pretext of facilitating the second phase of the mission.
Judging by the time, Erlan and the White Agate should have already arrived at the port of Tiana. Once Erlan reports Bansi's information, the Church of Storms will surely take immediate action.
Those who arrive at that time will at least be high-ranking deacons of the Punishers, or even the "Sea King" who is stationed in Bayam will come in person.
If you want to stay in Bansi to watch the show and gather some information, the ability to "psychologically invisible" is very important.
After Cyril left, Adam clasped his hands together and sat calmly before the enormous cross surrounded by bones, as if praying or quietly contemplating.
Thump~ thump~
In the somewhat deserted Church of Bones, a series of knocks suddenly sounded on the door.
Adam remained seated in his chair, neither looking up nor making a move.
A moment later, the knocking stopped, and Amon, wearing a monocle, appeared out of thin air in the hall of the Church of Bones, sitting in the black chair that Cyril had sat in before he left.
He looked at the silent Adam before him, and after a moment of stalemate, he spoke first:
"I remember you were very interested in the City of Calamity."
"Let's make a deal, and it's yours, how about it?"
As he spoke, Amon reached out and pulled a silver-plated mirror out of thin air.
If Sirion were still here, he would recognize that this was the mirror that was strongly connected to the special mirror world on Bansie Island.
Adam looked up at the mirror, his pale gold eyes devoid of any emotion, and asked:
"What kind of deal do you want?"
Amon raised his hand to adjust his monocle and smiled:
"Help me find Pales."
Adam lowered his eyes slightly and fell silent again, seemingly lost in thought.
Amon curled the corners of his lips and continued:
"Or tell me, what secrets does the City of Calamity hold that would make someone like you, from a completely different place, so concerned?"
"When you first approached me to help Tudor kill Medici, Sauron, and Einhorn, and to help Tudor become a Sequence 0 'Red Priest,' it wasn't simply to keep the others in check, but rather to verify something, wasn't it?"
"Then you got that madman Tudor and Chik together, and as a result, one madman became two, and the one who was already mad became even madder."
After a two-second silence, Adam slowly spoke:
"As representatives of the masculine and feminine realms of the original Creator, these two pathways are special in themselves."
"If there was a backup plan for resurrection from the beginning, it will most likely be one of these two paths."
"Is that all?" Amon raised an eyebrow slightly, his tone full of doubt.
Adam shook his head slightly, his tone neither calm nor indifferent:
"Once the tide of the times has pushed us to a critical juncture, I can tell you everything."
Amon shook his head with a regretful expression:
"Never mind then. I'm more curious about which church clergyman Pales is hiding with than any promises of the future."
Is it the darkness known as the "Mother of Secrets," or the all-knowing dragon skilled in betrayal?
After leaving the Church of Bones, Cyril went to the Church of Harvest again, where he recorded the extraordinary abilities of the "Dawn Knight" once more under Father Utravsky's complex gaze.
After that, I stayed at home until dark. The crimson full moon broke through the clouds, casting a crimson twilight over the ground.
Almost simultaneously, a series of overlapping, illusory prayers rang in his ears, one after the other.
"From the unknowable sublime, the gateway to dimensions, the embodiment of art and fantasy."
"Your faithful followers pray to you for protection..."
Above the dimension, Cyril cast his gaze down following the layers of prayers around him and saw Owen, Lawrence, and Verdu praying to him in their respective rooms.
He withdrew his gaze, reached out and dragged a dark "curtain" out of thin air, and threw it at Irving.
He then repeated the process, using the same special "black screen" to isolate Lawrence and Verdu from the outside world.
He continued until the full moon's effect disappeared, then he removed the "veil," allowing Verdu and the others to return to reality.
Boom!Boom!Boom!
At Irving's home, a series of knocks suddenly sounded on the door.
A few seconds later, the doorknob suddenly turned by itself, and then with a click, the door was pushed open from the outside.
Dressed in a smart suit and wearing a top hat, Verdu walked in from outside, glanced around the empty living room, and sat down on the sofa near the door.
After a while, Irving and Lawrence, who was staying at his house, came down from their respective rooms upstairs.
The three exchanged glances, then tacitly closed the door, drew the curtains, and carefully set up a spiritual wall before beginning their conversation.
Lawrence looked at Verdu and spoke first:
"When do you plan to discuss with the elders the method for safely navigating the full moon?"
Verdu pondered for a moment and then said, "Let's wait a while longer."
"We need to observe for a while longer, and it would be more convincing if one of us could advance to Sequence 6."
"Alright." Lawrence nodded slightly, then turned to look at Owen with Verdu.
Ou immediately understood what they meant and waved his hands repeatedly:
"I've been trying my best to play the clown in the circus, but it will take at least two more months before I can fully digest the potion."
"And this is only Sequence 8. We don't know how long it will be before we reach Sequence 6. You guys will definitely advance much faster."
Verdu shook his head slightly and sighed, "But we don't have your conditions."
"Lawrence's health is too poor, the risk of his promotion is too high, and we are not sure if that sublime being would be willing to shelter us beyond the full moon."
"If we are willing, what price would we need to pay?"
"But you are different. Besides being a member of Abraham's family, you are also a friend of the chosen one of God. You can get help from him."
"Of course, the Abraham family will prepare a very sincere gift for you."
The family's treasury still holds some of the potion recipes and materials from the "Apprentice" path sequence. The chosen one of the gods must have had corresponding needs since he chose this path.
After a slight pause, he spoke in an unusually serious tone:
"What the Abraham family needs most right now is not a way to safely get through the full moon, but the protection of high-ranking individuals."
"We've developed a relatively safe approach to the former through years of experience, but for the latter, we can't trust anyone outside the family. So, you are currently our greatest hope."
"I..." Owen opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Although he had always fantasized about turning the tide and restoring the glory of the Abraham family, as he delved deeper into the mysterious world, he gradually realized how naive he had been.
The glory of a family cannot be rebuilt by one person, unless that person is called Bethel Abraham!
After a brief silence, Lawrence broke the serious atmosphere with a light laugh:
"That's something you'll need to worry about later. Right now, you only need to focus on how to digest the 'Clown' potion and how to collect the extraordinary ingredients needed to concoct the 'Magician' potion."
Irving nodded, and then began to describe his progress:
"I can't find a better way to digest the potion for the time being, unless... all the circus audience members are replaced with Extraordinary Ones."
I'm still missing quite a few of the extraordinary materials needed to "advance to magician". At the moment, the only one I have is the true root of the Mist Treant that Cyrion helped me find.
"In addition, I also need the sap of the Mist Treant and all the spinal fluid of the Evil-Striped Black Panther."
Verdu nodded slightly, pondering as he spoke:
"I happen to know where the Evil-striped Black Panther is active. After you finish digesting the 'Clown' potion, I can take you to hunt it."
"Mist Trees are rare; we can only help you keep an eye out for them through family members."
