Mystery: Starting from Meeting Amon

Chapter 40: Business was stolen again

Seeing that everyone present was listening very seriously, Lewis continued: "All that is left there is only the devastated land and endless curses. The people of the Silver City feed on black-faced grass and constantly fight against the monsters in the dark."

"Sun" Derrick rubbed his eyes. He had an urge to cry. Just a few days ago, he had personally ended the lives of his parents. Until now, he still could not forget the warm feeling of blood on his palms.

But if his blood relative does not kill the other party, then his parents will become evil spirits that harm Silver City. This is a curse, a curse that has been in Silver City for thousands of years.

"So, Silver City doesn't belong to our world?" Audrey frowned. In her impression, there has never been such a place, and no one has ever mentioned it.

"You can say that." Lewis nodded slightly. He did not deny it and said, "Although the Silver City does not belong to this world, it has an intersection with this world. The intersection is at the Sonia Sea."

As Lewis's voice fell, Derrick clenched his fists. He confirmed Mr. Destiny's erudition and was even more certain that they had a way to escape from that place.

“Mr. Fate, what can we do to make that god turn his attention back to his people?” Derrick asked.

Lewis shook his head, sighed, and said slowly in a very heavy tone: "That god will never set his sights on that land again."

As Lewis' words fell, silence followed.

Derrick kept repeating Lewis' words in his mind, and finally he suddenly understood. He sobbed softly like a child who had not grown up yet.

Klein, who was sitting at the top of the long bronze table, was shocked. From Mr. Fate's words, he could infer that the god worshipped by the City of Silver had fallen!

What kind of power led to the fall of a true god? Was Mr. Fate a participant in this godslaying? Or was he just a witness?
But in any case, Mr. Fate may be a god who has lived for a long time and knows countless secrets.

Alger could not help but fall silent. When Mr. Fate mentioned the peculiarities of the Silver City, he realized that Mr. Fool was planning something for the Silver City.

Audrey couldn't help but sympathize with Derrick. According to Mr. Fate's description, the place where the "Sun" lived was quite miserable.

"Mr. Fate, is there any way to save the City of Silver?... I mean, just help them." Audrey stopped talking halfway. She was just a spectator and should not be involved in the story.

Besides, the matter of the City of Silver was of great importance, and even the person involved hadn't asked about it, so she shouldn't say anything.

“Thank you, Miss Justice.” After this brief shock, Derrick regained his composure and said firmly, “One day I will pay Mr. Fate enough to save the City of Silver from the curse.”

“I’m looking forward to that day.” Lewis said expressionlessly. He actually liked Derrick’s character. As long as he was willing to pay the price, things would be easy to negotiate.

After calming down, Derrick said again, "Miss Justice, I will get the formula for the Mind Reader as soon as possible. The potion formula I need to exchange it for is the initial sequence of the Sun Passage."

Lewis' eyes lit up again. The initial sequence of the sun's passage was "The Singer". He was familiar with the potion formula and could even give it to Sequence Four - The Darkless One.

At this moment, Klein, who was sitting at the head of the long bronze table, suddenly smiled and said, "I will give Sun a recipe for the Chanter. Sun will give Miss Justice the recipe for the Mind Reader as soon as possible, and Miss Justice will give me the newly acquired Roselle diary. The deal is done."

"Stealing business from my followers? Mr. Fool, you've lost your dignity!" Lewis couldn't help but complain in his heart when he saw that his business was taken away for the second time today. He suddenly felt that he should hurry up next time. "I have no objection." Audrey suppressed her excitement and smiled.

“I have no objection either.” Derrick agreed without hesitation. After all, being able to get the starting sequence of the Sun Passage on the spot was also the result he wanted to see.

Afterwards, Klein materialized the potion formula of the initial sequence of the Sun's Path, "The Singer," and passed it to Derrick.

Derrick checked the potion formula, while Klein read the two pages of Russell's diary that Audrey materialized.

As he read, Klein's brows furrowed. Through these two pages of the diary, he learned a lot of secrets.

"Some high-level sequences can actually be interchanged? I wonder what sequence the fortune teller can interchange with?" Klein took a look at Destiny. He wondered if this person who was suspected to be a true god knew this secret.

As Klein finished reading Roselle's diary, the Tarot Club also began to exchange information with each other.

This time, Lewis did not interrupt. Whether it was the events within the kingdom or the news about the Aurora Society, he only had a partial understanding of them. He only knew that the Lord of the Aurora Society was the true Creator, and George IV of the Kingdom of Loen was preparing for the deification ceremony of the Black Emperor.

After chatting for a while, the Hanged Man suddenly spoke up, "Ms. Justice, I would like to ask you for a favor in exchange for more money."

"What's the business?" Audrey asked doubtfully.

"The great pirate known as 'Vice Admiral Hurricane', Qi Lingos, has secretly infiltrated Backlund. You help me find his whereabouts, that's all."

Lewis frowned, and he immediately remembered the news about Qi Lingos and the item in Qi Lingos's hand, "Creeping Hunger".

After today's discussion was over, Klein, who was at the top, announced the end of today's gathering. He pressed his right hand forward and cut off the connection with the stars, except for Mr. Destiny's.

However, as he cut off the stars of the other three people, Mr. Fate's figure also disappeared, as if he was a ghost that only existed above the gray fog.

……

As the party ended, the crimson in Audrey's eyes faded away, and she patted her cheeks in the mirror. Today's party was fruitful. Not only did she get the recipe for the Mind Reader potion, but Mr. Hanged Man also agreed to provide the main ingredients for the potion.

"More importantly, I learned a piece of unknown history. Mr. Fate is really knowledgeable. He knows the situation of the Silver City very well. I believe that with the help of Mr. Fate, the 'Sun' will be rescued soon."

Audrey couldn't help but think of the ancient sun god of the Silver City. From the description of the little sun, the ancient sun god was even more powerful than the seven gods today. Such a great god actually fell.

"Mr. Fate is just a little bit sad about the death of this god. Does this mean that Mr. Fate can be compared with this ancient sun god?" Audrey didn't think much about it. She didn't dare to blaspheme Mr. Fate.
