Chapter 181 "Origin Castle"
He didn't wake up until the two burning, dark red flames dangled from Fulgrim's dog and fell in front of Klein's body. He was puzzled and rejoiced:
"Why did they voluntarily mutilate themselves, and gave me a pair of eyes, and there was still thick and sticky blood like paste flowing around them...
"If this is their trap, I have stepped into it just now, and I was stunned for a few seconds. This is a fatal mistake in the battle of the 'Crafting Mage'...
"However, no matter who encounters this kind of thing for the first time, it is inevitable that there will be a similar reaction-the terrifying enemy who is deliberately trying to deal with it will kneel down and beg for mercy as soon as it sees you, just like what happened in in a dream...
"This performance is very similar to that of Arrods. Could it be that the 'great existence above the spirit world' can really show its peculiarities in the spirit world?"
As his thoughts flashed, Klein glanced at the two Fulgrim dogs crawling in the void, wagging their tails. He stretched out his left hand to catch the two dark red flames and a large amount of sticky crimson blood.
As soon as he came into contact with these things, familiar ravings and roars suddenly sounded in Klein's ears. They were sometimes sharp, sometimes deep, sometimes manic, sometimes seductive, sometimes crazy, and sometimes ethereal.
Immediately afterwards, an illusory, gray mist appeared in front of his eyes.
The mist permeated the surroundings, and the edge could not be seen, and a towering and majestic palace that looked like the residence of a god could be vaguely seen above.
This is a scene Klein is very familiar with, because every time he enters the mysterious space above the gray fog, he will penetrate a similar place.
In the beginning, after he took four steps backwards, it was difficult for him to notice the surrounding situation, but with his own adaptation and the improvement of the sequence, he was able to seize the opportunity to make some observations more easily.
But at this moment, Klein didn't chant the names of "Fusheng Wuliang Tianzun" or take four steps counterclockwise.
This made Klein extremely vigilant, and then he saw several figures vaguely appearing in the boundless gray fog. They sometimes overlapped with the gray fog, and sometimes separated. They all had dark red flames burning in their eyes, and their whole bodies were covered in pitch-black short hair. A furry dog of Fulgrim.
The two Forgan dogs that had lost one eye returned to their companions and merged into the darker patches in the gray mist.
All the visions disappeared, and Klein, who was floating in the depths of the spirit world, found that there was no longer Fulgrim's dog "around", only his two secret puppets and strange spirit world creatures wandering in the distance remained.
…Klein lowered his head, looked at the "eyeballs" and blood in his hand, and felt their existence to confirm that what he experienced just now was not a hallucination.
The dogs of Fulgrim are also known as the Guardians of Origin Castle... They live in the historical pores of the spirit world... I saw them active in the gray mist just now, blending with the darker patches... Combined with the After seeing and hearing, Klein gradually came to a bold judgment:
"Maybe Sefirah Castle refers to the mysterious space above the gray mist, and refers to the weird light door...
"And the gray mist is a symbolic thing intertwined with all the history in the spiritual world, and there are pores in it...
"Every time I enter the mysterious space through the gray fog, I will leave certain traces there, so that the dogs of Fulgrim are no longer strangers, and they will regard me as the master of Origin Castle. Therefore, as soon as they see me, they immediately offer Get what I need, begging for mercy?
"I planned for a day, asked about the situation, and invited helpers, but it turned out that I was playing with my own guard?"
Thinking of this, Klein felt inexplicably absurd, just like the "fool" above the gray mist stretched out his black hand, trying to squeeze some "wool", but it ended up on himself.
"Huh...Origin Castle...Although this kind of development makes me more and more afraid, but no matter what, after all, I have begun to have a certain understanding of the owner of the gray mist and that mysterious space. The unknown is the most terrifying... After standing silently in the depths of the spirit world for a moment, Klein exhaled slowly and called the two secret puppets back.
He intends to wait for the potion of "Crafting Mage" to be completely digested, and then try to seek knowledge about Origin Castle from "Magic Mirror" Arrods and other places. At that time, if something unexpected happens, he can fight through promotion.
…………
East District, in a two-bedroom rental house.
Forsi, who had dark circles under her eyes, came back from the outside and picked up today's newspaper and letters.
"How is it?" Xio, who happened to be home for lunch, looked up and asked.
Fors stretched out her hand to cover her mouth, yawned and said:
"Not bad, the editor I know is very satisfied with the subject matter and writing style of my new book, and decided to arrange serialization as soon as possible.
"You don't know, the horror legend of Backlund Hospital has become very popular recently, and some best-selling authors have been inspired by it and started to serialize similar stories. I'm not the first batch!"
"...This is a good thing." Hugh thought for a second, then nodded seriously.
This means that Forsi, who also wrote the horror legend of Backlund Hospital, will not be so eye-catching, and her new pseudonym will not be tested.
"I know." Forsi dropped the newspaper, pulled out a few letters inside, and quickly flipped through it.
Soon, she found a reply letter from her teacher, Dorian Gray Abraham.
Forsi's expression suddenly became serious, and she quickly tore off the envelope, unfolded the letter paper, and began to browse:
"...Benjamin Abraham was from Intis, and he lived in Roselle's time... Except for the knowledge of mysticism and a small amount of inheritance, he didn't leave anything valuable... Afterwards, all of that was destroyed by the Aurora Society. Destroyed, I can't provide the corresponding information..."
Mr. Gehrman Sparrow will be disappointed... Fors pursed her lips, played a trick, and burned the letter paper in her hand to ashes.
Then, she began to write a reply letter, asking the teacher if she knew the secret relic of "Blood Emperor" Arista Tudor.
…………
The clue of Benjamin Abraham was cut off... It was all the fault of the lunatics from the Aurora Order... Klein came above the gray mist and listened to Miss "Magician"'s prayer.
At the same time, he learned the news that the horror legend of Backlund Hospital had started to be serialized.
Back in the real world, Klein was about to go out for dinner when he suddenly saw Miss Messenger walking out of the void holding four heads, one of which had a letter in her mouth.
"Who sent it?" Klein asked slightly puzzled.
Reinette Tinekerr answered in turn with the remaining three heads:
"Tempted..." "The..." "Stupid..."
Who is this... Klein became more and more confused, took the letter, opened it and took a look:
"The real culprit behind those things is George III. His purpose is to become the 'Dark Emperor'. Are you interested in destroying this matter?"
"Triss."
Triss? This witch actually dared to write to me, isn't she afraid of being caught by Miss Messenger? By the way, Miss Messenger said just now that the sender was "a seduced fool"... Triss seduced a man and asked him to help summon the messenger, while she hid far away, waiting for the man to contact through the mirror? She's still very smart... Well, she is really persistent in pursuing this matter, isn't she worried about being killed by me or George III? That man should be an Extraordinary. It is still very difficult for ordinary people to perform the ceremony of summoning the messenger. After all, it mainly depends on their own spirit and spirituality... Klein was surprised at first, and then realized something.
Immediately afterwards, he began to wonder why Triss could guess that George III wanted to become the "Dark Emperor".
Without enough knowledge of mysticism, without mastering the "Dark Emperor" ritual of becoming a god, and without understanding the corresponding history, even a demigod would have a hard time guessing it. It's definitely not as easy as the evil spirit "Red Angel" said!
Does Triss have other helpers? Or that she gained more power from the "primordial witch", including various knowledge and secrets? Klein frowned slightly, feeling more and more that there was a serious problem there.
If given the chance, he would definitely get rid of the witch Triss.
After thinking for more than ten seconds, he took out the paper and pen from his pocket, and wrote a reply letter:
"Have some interest, but don't know what you want to do."
…………
In the Backlund Bridge area, a man in his thirties was horrified to see the headless, no, four-headed banshee that appeared not long ago protruding in front of him, and dropped a letter.
"Are all the messengers in the world of occultism so scary?" After Reinette Tinekerr left for nearly five minutes, the man took a breath, picked up the letter, and opened it for a look.
During this process, his gaze gradually became hot, because he was able to meet that dreamy beauty again.
According to the instructions, he waited until evening to find a paste-like black thing, separated a little, and evenly applied it to a mirror.
A few seconds later, the mirror became dark, as if connected to another world.
In the blink of an eye, a room completely different from the current environment appeared in the mirror. There stood a gentle and pure girl in a dark black dress, who was the witch Triss.
The man who completed the ceremony suddenly showed a bit of obsession, and his voice unconsciously softened:
"Write back saying I'm interested."
The dimples on both sides of Triss's cheeks bloomed little by little, making the inside and outside of the mirror seem a little brighter.
She stretched her eyebrows and said:
"I will send you a letter, and you forward it to Gehrman Sparrow. You must not read the contents."
After getting the promise from the man without hesitation, Triss stretched out her right hand and wiped it on the mirror, making the gloomy water light disappear.
She immediately found a pen and paper, thought for a few seconds, and quickly wrote:
"The secret mausoleum required for George III's ceremony should come from 'Blood Emperor' Arista Tudor, and there is an existence who knows this very well, and may be able to help us sneak in smoothly and make damage during the ceremony.
"I have a way to contact that existence, but I have to wait until the next full moon, and all you need to do is provide me with some blood, hair, pieces of meat or bones of the descendants of the Abraham family.
"Triss."
