Lord of Mysteries: Taiyi

Chapter 142 I've taken care of it for you.

While eating a cheap breakfast in the East District, Kurt was unaware that he had been targeted by the royal family and the three major churches, and was busy collecting materials for his painting.

He held a sketchbook in his hand, jotting down any scenes he found meaningful, intending to take the role step by step.

After recording a scene of a homeless man being evicted from a dilapidated bench by the police, Kurt suddenly had an inspiration: he could record the scenes of one or more East End residents who went from a life of wealth to homelessness or even died as a result.

Of course, Kurt couldn't just stand by and watch a living person's life crumble before his eyes. He would only find people at these stages, then change the "protagonists" in the story, giving them new faces, uniform faces—

These paintings can only be effectively portrayed if Kurt has seen them with his own eyes or experienced them personally. Kurt had previously painted some famous paintings from his past life based on his memory, but found that the portrayal effect was minimal and he could hardly feel the progress of digestion, which is why he came to the above conclusion.

The painting that Kurt worked on in the classroom that day was the one he participated in the most, so he made the most progress in understanding it. As for "The Lamplighter," because Kurt didn't participate much and it seems that no one appreciated it, he made much less progress in understanding it than the first painting.

Why not follow the example of Emperor Roselle and replace the characters in this process with yourself?

After finishing the last bite of his black bread, Kurt left the East End and headed to the Harvest Church.

Upon arriving at the church, Kurt saw Mrs. Salize being affectionate with Carter, who was dressed in a monk's robe. Seeing that it was not yet 10 o'clock, Kurt chatted with them for a while.

Then he received unexpected news—

"Recently, some strange people have been coming to my door asking if I want to see my deceased child and husband. How can the dead come back to life? I just ignored them. Now that I have little Carter with me, I have no regrets."

Kurt agreed with Mrs. Salitz, saying, "Those people are likely up to no good, Mrs. Salitz. You'd better call the police next time you see them!"

Saliz patted Carter's head affectionately and said, "I feel like they're just a bunch of poor people hoping their deceased loved ones will come back to them. Little Carter probably dreams of his mother coming back too, doesn't he?"

Carter wasn't alarmed by those words. Instead, he nodded seriously and said, "Grandpa Bishop said that Mom went to the Kingdom of the Mother Goddess, where there are countless flowers and clear springs, and Mom is living a very happy life. Although I miss Mom, I don't want her to come back and suffer."

"And my practice here is to spread the Mother Goddess's love for mankind, so that more people can go to that peaceful—Garden of Eden? It seems that this word was coined by Emperor Roselle. My grandfather, the bishop, recently gave me a collection of his poems."

Seeing Carter's even more devout demeanor than his own, Kurt was immediately impressed by the bishop's remarkable professional skills; he had managed to make Carter a faithful missionary of the Mother Goddess.

As Kurt said goodbye to Mrs. Salitz, he quietly tossed an invisible seed into her pocket, investigated where Mrs. Salitz lived, and then went to find those suspected members of the Nihilistic Cult.

While directly summoning the faces of those people would be the best method, Kurt wasn't so deranged as to knock out a 75-year-old.

The elderly woman was at the point of spiritual communication, at most through relatively gentle means such as entering dreams, which of course had to wait until night.

He thought it would be another day of normal study and training, but today Melanie gave Kurt a few tasks.

One of them was that the three major churches simultaneously issued a clue to the Church of the Earth Mother Goddess to find an extraordinary person wearing a white mask whose strength was suspected to be at the Sequence Five level.

"Suspected Sequence Five? How can they be so sure? And the three major churches? Is such a grand gesture really necessary?" Kurt was puzzled for a moment, but then realized it must be because he had killed Horace. And the royal family and the three major churches had a strong connection; after all, the Rune royal family was supported by the three major churches—

A Sequence 6 item paired with a Sequence 5 extraordinary item is indeed a force to be reckoned with, but is this level of madness really necessary?

What Kurt didn't know was that he almost killed a marquis. If that marquis hadn't also possessed the strength of a Sequence Five, he would have been corrupted and killed by the Earth Mother Goddess that day.

Kurt, without batting an eye, asked in bewilderment, "Even divination can't help?"

Melanie nodded with some doubt and said, "It is indeed strange. The three major churches cannot find an extraordinary being who has never been a demigod, and they need our half-baked extraordinary team to help them."

They've probably already used Arodes—Kut thought about how others were going to suffer, and he couldn't help but laugh. He felt that his own source essence was even more useful than the "Source Castle." After doing something "bad," he could just pat his butt and leave. Basically, apart from his mother who was always watching him, almost no one could find evidence to prove that he did it.

However, before Melanie could finish speaking, she put her hands in her pockets and said, "By the way, I asked you for a task. Speaking of which, you were the one who discovered this task. That canine animal you drew that day, which had some kind of strange disease, clearly had extraordinary factors behind it."

"I've assessed the situation, and this task shouldn't be too difficult for you, so I've taken it on for you. The Night Watch will send one or two team members to assist you."

It looks like we'll be busy for a few more days. Kurt didn't seem to mind, since Melanie had mentioned a few days ago that she would be taking on some missions to train Kurt.

Moreover, this case involves animals, and Kurt's divine gift could be of great help. Furthermore, the sick dog was obviously not very strong in combat and would be held back by a cat, so the extraordinary being behind it was obviously not that powerful either.

However, they have a way to block the occupation—occupying the territory is still too weak, but I can also use the source castle.

Afterwards, Kurt asked about some details of the case and discovered that this case seemed to be the first one to occur, which Kurt happened to witness. The other party did indeed have the means to counter-occupy the territory, and there has not been a second similar case yet.

Melanie, wanting to familiarize Kurt with the case-handling procedures, didn't reveal her own thoughts. Instead, she said, "So I've given you a three-day break. After training today, you can report to the Night Watchers, the place where you found that vicious dog last time."

Kut nodded to show he understood, and just as he was about to say something more, a figure darted out from the solid wall.

He was a man with his hair combed back to the side, exuding a serious yet dashing air. He was probably twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, with delicate, handsome features, but an undisguised arrogance in his eyes and brows. He had a high nose bridge, thin lips, and bloodshot eyes, bearing a resemblance to Melanie in temperament, but even more flamboyant.

Kurt's ring tells him that this is a vampire—plus the special location and the ability to pass through walls, it is Mr. "Moon," one of the future Celestial Trio of Fools!
