Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

Chapter 407 Tarot Friendship Club

Above the gray fog, inside the ancient palace.

Klein sat on the high-back chair that belonged to The Fool. Yu Jin was the only person sitting on both sides of the mottled long table.

As for the other members, they had already left the moment the party ended, and even the avatar of "The World" did not stay behind.

Silently, the darkness crept into the gray fog. The gray fog, which was already at a disadvantage under the burning of the flames, was instantly enveloped by the darkness, hiding the boundless Milky Way and the deep red stars in the gray fog one after another.

But this situation did not last long. The gray fog that had been gradually compressed refilled the area shrouded in darkness. This was not because the darkness was dispelled by the gray fog, but because the "darkness" had condensed into a slender figure wearing a black robe and a hood, appearing in the ancient palace.

He slowly walked to the mottled long table, pulled out the high chair that belonged to Miss Justice and sat down.

The coming of 'darkness' seemed to be a signal, and more and more beings appeared in the ancient palace one after another.

The gray fog twisted silently, becoming like a servant welcoming the emperor's return, welcoming the middle-aged man who was wearing black armor, a cloak of the same color, a black crown inlaid with various gems, and holding a scepter in his hand.

Countless gorgeous flowers grew on the ground, turning the ancient palace in the spirit world into a garden. From the garden, a petite girl with dazzling blonde hair quietly emerged, smiling as she walked towards Yu Jin, wanting to sit down beside him.

But suddenly, the space in front of her suddenly opened a group of indifferent brass eyes. At the same time, an invisible darkness swept over and enveloped the blonde girl. When she appeared again, she was already in the position of the "magician" lady.

Next to her, a lady in a black robe sat elegantly in Miss Judgment's seat.

The middle-aged man wearing a crown sat in the position of the 'Hanged Man' and placed the scepter he had been holding in his hand on the mottled long table.

As they appeared, more and more figures appeared above the gray fog, but they all sat at the end of the long bronze table, keeping a distance of several seats from the people who had arrived earlier.

This is the real meeting before the gods, but the pressure is also very great! ... Klein muttered silently. He was only familiar with Yu Jin and had little contact with the others. As for the angels they brought with them, he had basically no contact with them except Bernadette.

But now, Klein had to preside over this meeting as the 'host' with four true gods participating. He was only a Sequence 1 who had just been promoted not long ago. How could he not be under pressure?

Klein was puzzled in his heart, and did not speak rashly. Instead, he quietly looked at the "followers of the gods" brought by these people.

The Goddess of Night was not present in person, because she was busy digesting the uniqueness of the two paths of "God of Death" and "God of War". This meant that she needed to fight against the remaining "original" will in the two paths at the same time, and it would be difficult to be distracted in a short period of time.

So the one who came in his place was the lady in black robes. According to Klein's understanding of the Church of Night, this person should be the Pope of the Church of Night, Irina. She is usually revered as the Saint within the Church of Night. In many cases, she appears as the spokesperson of the Goddess of Night in reality. She is also the only one present who did not bring other angels to participate in this Tarot Club.

Judging from what she did just now, she is probably not only representing the Goddess of Night, but can also use some of the Goddess of Night's power herself.

At the same time, it was hard for Klein not to associate her name with something - it was the same name as the Saint Irina in Dark Souls 3.

If the Pope of the Church of Night is Saint Irina, then who is the Goddess of Night?
Klein didn't think about it because the situation and practice didn't allow it.

He turned to look at the three ladies brought by the Mother Goddess of Earth. All three of them were dressed luxuriously and had graceful figures, but their hair colors were completely different and easy to distinguish. One had silver hair, one had long sky blue hair, and the other had long fiery red hair.

The silver-haired lady should be the vampire goddess of beauty, Ornia. The feature of her silver hair is so obvious.

The hair color of the latter two did not match that of Pope Roland of the Church of Mother Earth, so they should be two of the three dukes of the Blood Clan. Emlyn White also mentioned that among the three dukes of the Blood Clan, except for Duke Olmer, the other two were female, one named Elina and the other named Alyssa, and they seemed to be sisters from their names.

In the Second Age, Alyssa was the goddess of life, and Elina was the goddess of love.

Among the native angels and gods, these two are also the oldest ones in existence, even older than the Angel King and most of the gods under the Ancient Sun God. After all, the prosperity of the Blood Clan was in the early and middle period of the Second Epoch, when the Ancient Sun God had not yet been born.

It was not until the late Second Age, when the ancestor of the blood race, Lilith, "fell", that the ancient sun god first emerged in history.

The God of Knowledge and Wisdom also brought two ladies, two ladies with human upper bodies and spider lower bodies, one is the White Spider and the other is the Red Spider. Obviously, they are the witch sisters in Dark Souls 1, the Red Spider Krag, and the White Spider whose name is not revealed in the game.

After all, the characteristics of these two people are so obvious that it would be difficult for Klein to recognize them.

The reason why their lower bodies are in spider form is because of the uncontrolled chaos flame erosion and infection. Similarly, the witch's only son is even worse than these two sisters. He was infected by chaos as soon as he was born, and therefore continued to fester.

One of the witch sisters created a ring to ease his decay, but when he was escaping from the Chaos Hotbed, the finger on which he was wearing the ring rotted and fell off, transforming into a centipede demon. He himself became a creature that continued to decay, guarding the grave of the witch sister who took him away.

In comparison, the Starscream sisters are still lucky.

Since the identities of the witch sisters are so clear, the identity of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom is naturally self-evident, the witch Clana.

Compared with these three, Roselle seemed a little shabby. He only brought one angel with him, his daughter Bernadette. But there was nothing he could do about it. Compared with other true gods, Roselle lacked foundation.

After all, Roselle was already corrupted before he became a god, and the first thing he did after becoming a god was to commit suicide, leaving him no time to develop his own followers and followers. Even Bernadette's becoming an angel had little to do with Roselle himself.

If Bernadette hadn't taken the initiative to support his old father, Roselle would probably have to come to the banquet alone.

Of course, Roselle's other son, Bonois Gustave, is also an angel, but this son is a believer of the Lord of Steam, and his relationship with Roselle is not to be strangers, but at least destined to be hostile.

This Tarot Club was also completely different from previous ones, as there were four true gods or their representatives in attendance, as well as nearly ten angels... This lineup was nothing short of luxurious, but Klein felt a little regretful. If he had known earlier, he should have brought a few people to support the occasion - after all, although The Fool was not a true god, he had many angels!
Mr. Men, Groselle, Miss Messenger, Mr. Azik, and the little snake that was born not long ago... Well, although any of these people can be brought up to support the scene, most of them cannot be brought up, otherwise it will be easy to be exposed, and Klein did not inform them in advance, so he can only deal with this somewhat embarrassing scene alone - presiding over the meeting in front of several true gods as a master, a normal person would be scared. Perhaps seeing the embarrassment of his fellow countryman, Emperor Roselle tapped the table lightly and said:

"Since no one is talking, let me start."

"I need the uniqueness of the Judge's path. Does anyone have any clues?"

Since the fall of the Eternal Blazing Sun, the Eternal Blazing Sun sect has fallen apart, and the Steam Church has become the only true god sect in Intis. Now that Roselle has received assistance from the Steam Church, there will be no more obstacles to rebuilding the Intis Empire.

Of course, the top leaders of the Republic of Intis would definitely strongly oppose it. They would drag their feet at the least and might even stab you in the back. Roselle knew very well that it was impossible to run the country well with these insects, so with his rich experience in political struggles, he didn't mind using the simplest way to make these people shut up forever.

In addition, the remaining uniqueness and extraordinary characteristics of the Black Emperor Path had all been gathered in his hands when Roselle was resurrected, and these extraordinary characteristics originally belonged to him, so he did not need to "digest" them again. All he lacked now was enough faith.

Under the premise that the domestic situation in Intis was very good, it was only a matter of time before he reestablished Intis's faith in the 'Black Emperor' and was promoted to Sequence 0. And Roselle was always used to making plans early, so he needed to find the uniqueness and extraordinary characteristics of the Judge's Path in advance.

The extraordinary characteristics are easy to deal with. The Loen royal family and the Feynapotter royal family each have a Sequence 1. At worst, we can just snatch it from them.

But uniqueness is not easy to deal with, because the whereabouts of uniqueness has always been a mystery.

Of course, this "mystery" only applies to ordinary people. In the eyes of these true gods, there are actually very few secrets in this world.

Saint Irina said softly:
"The Church of the God of War has a sealed artifact '0-02', which should be the only way to activate the 'Judge' path."

Her voice was not loud, and even sounded a little weak.

"What price do I need to pay?" Russell asked immediately with a serious expression.

He knew that they were allies now, but even as allies, there was no such thing as helping each other for no reason. If you want something, you have to pay for it.

Irina continued:
"'0-02' is not in the hands of the Church of Evernight."

"The Patriarch of the Church of the God of War, Larion, fled on the day the God of War fell, and took the Sealed Artifact '0-02' with him."

"In addition, He destroyed all the data on the Level 0 Sealed Artifact before escaping, so we don't know the degree of activation of this Sealed Artifact."

Russell frowned slightly, this was a bit troublesome.

As the Patriarch of the Church of the God of War, Larion must be a Sequence 2 angel.

At that time, the Church of Evernight had just begun to take over the Church of the God of War. Although taking over these seals would definitely be the primary goal, ordinary Beyonders were simply unable to stop a Sequence 2 angel who escaped with the unique path of a Judge.

What's more, since Larion chose to escape on the day the God of War fell, the Church of Evernight might not have enough time to react.

Moreover, Larion destroyed the data before escaping. This caution naturally added variables to the tracking.

Because when the major churches inform each other of '0' level and '1' level seals, they will only give numbers.

Even within the major churches, the information about '0' level sealed objects is kept strictly confidential. As high-level officials, they can only access relevant information when they are in charge of a certain '0' level sealed object, and there is a high probability that the corresponding memory will be erased afterwards... On the one hand, this is to prevent important information from being leaked, and on the other hand, for many '0' level sealed objects, just knowing about them will be dangerous or make the seal ineffective...

Just like Roselle now knows that '0-02' is the only way for the judge, but he is also unable to determine its specific degree of activation, and therefore its degree of danger.

Because if the degree of activation of 0-02 is high enough, it may even reach the level of a hidden sage!

Then the true God must take action personally to ensure that there will be no mistakes.

But Roselle still has some distance to reach the level of true God.

"He has left Feysac now, and his target is most likely the Kingdom of Loen. Arianna is tracking him. If you can help capture him, '0-02' can be your reward."

Saint Irina's voice sounded soft, but there was no hesitation in her words. It was obvious that she had high decision-making power over the actions of the Church of Evernight.

The Earth Mother Goddess Lilith suddenly chuckled, and in the puzzled eyes of others, she smiled and said:
"I have to remind you that the activation of '0-02' is likely to be influenced by the 'Country of Disorder'."

Roselle frowned even deeper, that would be even more troublesome!

The true gods have basically all sensed the news that the source substance has returned to reality.

Just like Roselle, He could also sense the general location of the ‘Land of Disorder’, which was also a manifestation of the law of aggregation of extraordinary characteristics.

而如果‘0—02’之所以会活化是受到‘失序之国’影响，那‘0—02’是成为第二个隐匿贤者’。这也就意味着，即便是最开始是拉里昂携‘0—02’出逃，但‘0—02’的位阶本就在拉里昂之上，再加上‘失序之国’的影响，现在的拉里昂很可能已经是‘0—02’的傀儡！
And once Larion returns to the 'Land of Disorder' with '0-02', it will be almost impossible for Roselle to have the chance to obtain this uniqueness!
So, we must act quickly!
