Secret: I can play two paths

Chapter 296: Roselle is so funny

The "Card of Blasphemy" opened up its patterns like cracked porcelain, and then disappeared silently in an instant, dissipating in vain in Bernadette's eyes in a symbol full of distorted meanings.

Thinking of the fact that her father had been contaminated by the "original moon" in his later years, Bernadette quickly figured out the cause and effect:
The "Original Moon" probably sensed Star's existence at some point, and then secretly used the backup plan originally left in the "Card of Blasphemy" to test Star!
However, it was obvious that His temptation had no effect.

When everything returned to "nothingness", to "voidness", Bernadette originally could feel that the fetus was connected to a certain existence in the sky, so that the rich but illusory crimson moonlight produced by it, all disappeared.

It was as if the crimson moonlight that was gently rising and falling like the tide and spreading towards her was just an illusion she had created.

The stiffness disappeared immediately, and even after Star used some healing power on her, the madness and loss of control brought by the transformation into a mythical creature also quickly disappeared...

The former is similar to the small "restart" ability of the "fate" field mixed with the "life" field, while the latter -

For the time being, Bernadette seemed a little confused by the "Sage" level analysis of the "Secret Peeper".

It makes sense to say that it is the "audience" path that has the ability to soothe the mind and psychology among the five paths in the "omniscience" field.

However, when Bernadette observed the information she obtained from her own transformation from the perspective of the information flood, she soon discovered that things were not that simple.

This is because the ability to soothe the mind and the soul is obviously different from the conventional way of guiding and disturbing the mind by influencing the subconscious ocean of the human being (or the surface of the mind body).

If I had to describe it:

There is unbridled intemperance, and restraint in publicity.

Is this the "prisoner" approach to self-restraint in fighting the curse?

However, Bernadette tried to find the source of this ability in the "Sage" level analysis of the "Secret Peeper", but the deeper she went, the more confused she became.

The abilities used by Star do not seem to belong to any known fields. It has the small "restart" ability of the "destiny" field, the mental and psychological soothing ability of the "omniscience and omnipotence" field, and even the self-restraint of the "prisoner" path. It is like an intricate network that interweaves the characteristics of various fields to form a unique power.

High-sequence masters of the "Reader" path may be able to use the weakened version of the analytical learning ability obtained at the beginning of the "Mystic Instructor" sequence to use the abilities of other paths, but they will never use them as skillfully as Star, as if they are at a higher level of these paths and have gained absolute control over these extraordinary abilities.

Therefore, when Bernadette tried to trace the source of the power used by Star using her angel-level information analysis ability, she was completely at a loss.

The characteristics of Star's extraordinary abilities are like the various powers he has dabbled in, but Bernadette is unable to fully identify them, nor is she able to analyze the mechanism of action used by his most "root".

Its complexity is like a mixture of "authority" and "power" from multiple "fields", but what way is there to accommodate so many powers of different natures?
As far as Bernadette knew, in the Second Era, those beings who had tried to contain multiple extraordinary powers in one had already paid a heavy price for it:

After being driven out of control and mad by the mixed mental imprints within the Beyonder characteristics, an indescribable mutation occurred directly...

As for the end, they all perished without exception:

Whatever is “separated” must be “aggregated”, and whatever is “aggregated” must also be “separated”!
How is Nasta immune to the effects brought upon him through so many channels?
Therefore, Bernadette perfectly eliminated one correct answer first, but accidentally found the truth of another matter:

It is said that the Creator once led mankind to defeat many ancient gods in the Third Age and liberated the current world from them.

And He Himself demonstrated a variety of abilities during the battle.

After linking this matter with the fact that Star was "hostile" to Adam, the "Son of the Creator" (even making Adam use her to obtain information), Bernadette began to suspect:
Is there any connection between Star and the path mastered by the Creator, or is it a combination of several of its paths?

For example, a backup plan left by the Creator?
Therefore, Star naturally stands on a different side from Adam, the "Son of the Creator"? For reasons similar to the struggle caused by the choice of path?
It's just that she couldn't be sure, because the characteristics behind Star's ability were too complicated and beyond her cognition. It seemed extremely complex in the torrent of information, almost covering multiple mysterious fields. It had both profound tolerance and elusive creativity - full of overlapping isomorphisms, but it seemed impossible to capture its true core as a whole.

It was like the world was playing a little joke on Bernadette, telling her:
God also plays dice.

Of course, but now is not the time to ask Star about these mysteries.

The world is full of things beyond one's expectations. From the perspective of the leader of the "Dawn of the Elements", Bernadette might as well think about how to use Star's abilities based on this.

For Bernadette, although she knew that this was an extremely powerful ability - not only could it help her recover from her physical injuries, it could also eliminate her mental madness and tendency to lose control, allowing her to better control her own power and weaken the mental abnormalities that occurred after transforming into the form of a mythical creature.

For angels, any mental attacks they were subjected to can be immediately adjusted, which is undoubtedly a very valuable good thing. Because when Beyonders reach the angel level, their mental state has certain problems, and they may lose control at any time because of the tilt of the balance.

But Bernadette thought of more than that. What if she could let Star use this extraordinary ability on his father?
With his life level and personality strength... and the mysterious sequence path that blends multiple fields...

Just as Bernadette was thinking about how to get rid of the contamination on her father who was confirmed to be corrupted, she tensed up and looked up into the air.

The crimson moonlight that originally belonged to the red moon suddenly became deeper and thicker!

So Bernadette looked up and found that the dark clouds and mist in the sky had dissipated, and the red moon, which was larger than a half circle, was clearly revealed.

Its outline quickly became fuller and its color darkened visibly, like flowing blood.

In just one or two seconds, it had become round and turned into a full moon, a blood-red full moon!
This is another "blood moon".

Combining the information she knew, Bernadette soon realized:

After Star destroyed the arrangement of the "Original Moon" left on the Blasphemy Card through Roselle's hands, the evil god became angry, and thus the Blood Moon appeared?
Well, the anger of the "Original Moon" directly changed the moon's appearance, showing a blood moon, but the ability currently displayed by Star, who had just fought with him, seemed to have stopped and was limited to a certain range...

Could it be that Star has some difficulties too?
Bernadette suddenly had a clearer judgment of this person who was still in the recovery period.

Before Bernadette could ask, Star chuckled and said, "Huang Beibei, you were in a daze for too long."

After a pause, Star teased in a tone that eased the atmosphere:
"Why, do you think I asked you to have an abortion?"

Bernadette's face, which was about to ask a question, suddenly flashed with a hint of doubt. After a brief thought, she realized that what Star meant was that he handed the blasphemy card to her, and then let her fall into the trap.

It seems that strictly speaking, Sta was the direct driving force behind the incident in which he was almost contaminated by the Mother Goddess.

"Why do I feel like there's always someone who's going to attack you and implicate me when I'm around you?"

After thinking through the whole process, Bernadette moved her lips slightly and spoke with a hint of helplessness in her tone.

"I can't help it. Maybe my beauty makes the goddess on the moon jealous?"

Star made a joke and evaded the topic.

After all, he couldn't explain directly to Bernadette: This was because he borrowed the aura of the "Fallen Mother Goddess" at the Roselle Memorial Exhibition this afternoon to bring a hint of Roselle's "Black Emperor", and he also borrowed the power of the "Fallen Mother Goddess", a senior Outer God, last week - and because of these two things, he attracted the attention of the "Fallen Mother Goddess", right?
However, it is indeed as Bernadette said, even if he does not have the law of aggregation of extraordinary characteristics in effect, he will always be targeted by those high-level beings who observe and interfere with the world situation because of various troubles.

Up to now, Star didn't know how many times he had narrowly escaped from those beings, and he couldn't hide anymore.

This is probably another law of aggregation.

Bernadette was stunned by Sta's reply. She knew that the "Original Moon" in charge of the "Blood Moon" had a beautiful symbol in the field of life, and perhaps only the appearance of the "Original Witch" could be compared with it.

How confident does one have to be to say such words, and...it's totally inconsistent with the position of a high-ranking being.

But she quickly glanced at Star in surprise - she had to admit, at least in terms of his appeal to women, his charm seemed unparalleled...

Of course, knowing that Star did not intend to elaborate on the feud between him and the "Original Moon", Bernadette mentioned:
"What happened to that blasphemous card just now?"

"You should have noticed one thing: Roselle made the 'Blasphemy Card' before he performed the 'Black Emperor' ceremony. At that time, he had already been contaminated by the 'Original Moon'."

Seeing Bernadette nod, Star continued:

"But the 'blasphemous card' he created is so powerful that even the gods cannot find it. This level of anti-divination and anti-prophecy is not what a Sequence 1 'Knowledge Emperor' should be capable of."

"You mean..."

Bernadette's pupils suddenly dilated, and she suddenly realized that she had never noticed this abnormality before:

The anti-divination and anti-prophecy properties that even the gods could not find - this was at least created by a being of godly level, but in his later years, it seemed that Roselle was not confirmed to have reached the rank of "Black Emperor" until he was killed by the two gods Steam and Fiery Sun, and was officially promoted!
At that time, he had become crazy due to his promotion to a non-adjacent path, and it was impossible for him to free up his hands to give the Card of Blasphemy the anti-divination and anti-prophecy properties!
Bernadette didn't have the habit of taking the Blasphemy Card to obtain its corresponding status and characteristics. She even had no other use for it except for trading with the above formula. Otherwise, she would have been scared at this moment:
It turns out that she is not far from being eroded by the "primitive moon" and becoming its nest to breed something!
"Yes, it is true that the authority of the 'Knowledge Emperor' can make the magic potion formula on the 'blasphemous card' add power, but if the 'Primal Moon' had not made corresponding arrangements in it, these 'blasphemous cards' might not be as magical as before."

Star continued to explain slowly.

"Does this have anything to do with the phantom of the 'Black Emperor' that appeared today?"

Bernadette raised her voice and seized the opportunity to ask about the doubt that had been buried in her heart for a long time with a hint of concern.

"It is indeed related. To put it simply, I wanted to take advantage of Him this afternoon and borrowed the name 'Black Emperor' from Him to use. Unexpectedly, I attracted His attention instead."

Star lowered his head and played with the new "card" in his hand:
Strictly speaking, the "Original Moon" was not sure what was going on, but the "Card of Blasphemy" was there at the time, and it was probably at that time that He began to make His plans.

It was a pity that he encountered the warning of "between reality and illusion" - if Bernadette had not recorded a few more times in time, Sta was afraid that the "Card of Blasphemy" would disappear directly at the moment of opening.

But Star didn't expect that this would stimulate the "Original Moon" to attack Bernadette directly, and Bernadette's response was so fierce...'

“From this perspective, it’s really embarrassing.”

"I'll make you pregnant..."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Star felt something was wrong and quickly looked up at Bernadette.

She also noticed that this ambiguous statement was somewhat offensive, so she changed the subject and talked to Star about another topic:
"But I don't understand why my father looks like that."

"That kind of...indecent look..."

"You're talking about this." Star suddenly shook his head with amusement, "But you know that the diary he wrote himself has made him a little socially dead."

“But he also has a lot of positive history.”

Bernadette retorted as if to protect her father's image.

"Well, those achievements were not achieved by him alone..."

"Besides, Rossel is just very funny. This stereotype I got from his diary is hard to get rid of in my mind."

After these words were spoken, Sta saw that Bernadette's face was clearly cold and she had no intention of arguing.
