Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

Cannibalism... Klein was not too surprised when he learned of this secret, probably because he already had a deep understanding of the madness of this world.

Can certain pathways be interchangeable in Sequence Five? This is completely contrary to what the church says!

Didn't the occult courses say that once the path is changed, half-madness is the best ending? Is this conclusion not perfect, there are loopholes?

The complete path mastered by the Nighthawks is "Sleepless", and the relatively complete path is "Corpse Collector" that can reach at least Sequence 4. As a result, they are interchangeable after Sequence Five... Is there any secret hidden in it?

Wait... Klein suddenly realized something that he had overlooked. Ince Zangwill was a Sequence Five of the corpse collector path. After failing to advance, he defected from the church with a "0" level sealed item. Kill, what is his most urgent purpose?

It is a demigod promoted to Sequence Four.

And the Roselle diary in his hand mentioned that the "Corpse Collector" pathway and the "Sleepless Man" pathway can be interchanged after Sequence Five. As a former archbishop, Ince Zangwill probably knew this secret.

He may choose to switch to the "Sleepless" path after failing to advance to the "Corpse Collector" path to demigod.

Could this be the real purpose of his coming to Tingen?

As a small city in Tingen, the power of the Nighthawks is naturally not as difficult to deal with as Backlund, but there is a high-sequence item behind the Chanis Gate in Tingen: "St. Selina's Ashes".

According to the internal records of the Nighthawks, Saint Selina is a demigod of the "Sleepless" pathway.

The law of the immortality of Extraordinary characteristics, after the death of a high-sequence Beyonder, the remaining Beyonder characteristics can be used as the main ingredient of potions...

The reason why Ince Zangwill frequently creates coincidences is not because he wants to take revenge on the church, but because he wants to get the "Ashes of Saint Selena" and be able to successfully advance to the demigod of the "Sleepless" path.

In Klein's mind, there seemed to be an earth-shattering noise out of thin air, connecting all the clues together to outline a perfect and logical story.

Moreover, this may well be the truth of the matter!

Sitting at the head of the long bronze table, "The Fool" Klein did not make the same mistake as last time. He quickly adjusted his emotions, restrained all kinds of thoughts, and turned his gaze to the second page of the diary, only to find that it was all written by Roselle. Diary, even with duplicate content...

"Actually, you don't have to wait for me." He put away the diary in his hand and said with a smile.

"The Hanged Man" Alger took the lead and responded humbly: "This is our honor."

Klein nodded slightly: "You can communicate freely now."

Argel took over the leading position of the topic, and spoke first:

"I have received information that the great pirate Qilingus, who is known as 'Vice Admiral Hurricane', has secretly landed and infiltrated Backlund. I don't know what he wants to do. I hope the two of you can help me find his whereabouts."

"'Vice Admiral Hurricane' Qilingus? One of the seven pirate generals?" Audrey's eyes widened slightly, and she suddenly smelled the breath of adventure, and she almost couldn't maintain the state of the audience.

Alger was not surprised by Miss Justice's reaction, but the other new member, Mister "Sun", didn't respond to it. I don't know if it was because of lack of interest, or for other reasons? City of Silver, never heard of this place...

Returning to the topic, "The Hanged Man" solemnly introduced:

"Yes, Qilingus is a Sequence 6 Extraordinary 'Wind Blessed' of the 'Sailor' pathway, and also possesses a magical item called 'Squirming Hunger'. He is quite cunning and cruel, so don't try to deal with him."

...After careful and detailed exchanges, Audrey finally decided to accept the commission:

"Mr. Hanged Man, I will initiate an attempt, but there is no guarantee that I will find Vice Admiral Hurricane Qilingus."

"Thank you for your help. Regardless of success or failure, I will pay a corresponding reward, which will be witnessed by Mr. Fool." Alger promised with rare generosity.

After praising Mister Fool, Audrey said, "I also have a request to release."

"I got news that there is a potential source of danger hidden in Tingen that may cause a large number of casualties. It is likely to be a terrorist ceremony created by an evil organization. I hope someone can investigate the authenticity of this news and the details."

This is the information disclosed in Louise's letter, but Audrey can't believe it completely, so she plans to investigate clearly through the "Tarot Society", and then secretly inform Earl Hall and the Church to organize the actions of evil organizations and avoid ordinary civilian casualties.

Tingen... "The Fool" Klein was startled. Backlund's pirate general has nothing to do with him, but the danger in Tingen is closely related to him!

"Tingen, Backlund, evil organizations... what are these? Could it be that these people really live in a world outside the "Land Abandoned by God"?" Derrick "The Sun" thought.

"Tingen, is that the small city near the port of Enmat?"

Alger said that since Miss "Justice" accepted his commission just now, he felt obligated not to let the other party stand in the cold.

Audrey turned her gaze to Mr. "The Hanged Man" and said affirmatively, "Yes, you have a clue?"

Alger replied calmly: "No, I'm still at sea, but I can provide some directions for investigation."

"There are probably a few secret organizations active in Loen, among which the 'Aurora Society' is the most unscrupulous and likes to cause large-scale chaos and disasters..."

"'Aurora Society', that evil organization that has mastered the secret prayer path and believes in the 'True Creator'." Audrey recalled the relevant information.

Alger's words choked a little, why did Miss "Justice" seem to have rapidly grown into a senior Extraordinary in just a few weeks!

He said lightly: "That's right."

Just when the two were thinking about each other, they suddenly heard the sound of "dongdong" coming from the top of the long bronze table.

"The Fool" Klein chuckled, and said, "One of my followers is currently active in Tingen, and may be able to provide some help."

Before Miss Justice thanked him, he went on to add:

"Same as last time, after the gathering, you will pass on the detailed information to my loved ones through prayer."

"Thank you for your kindness." Audrey said humbly. She didn't feel that Mister Fool was doing it for her own reward, and it must be to stop the actions of the evil organization.

"The Hanged Man" Alger asked in surprise, "Pray? What prayer?"

Listening to the conversation just now, it seems that this is not the first time that Ms. Justice has communicated with Mister Fool outside of the "Tarot Club", which gave him the illusion that she has been excluded from the organization.

Why did I write the Tarot Society without the participation of the protagonist (of course not for the sake of word count), this is my real purpose, first of all, the ability to reveal the audience’s path, let Klein guess that Ince Zangwill appeared in Tingen, Then tell him the Law of Indestructibility of Extraordinary Characteristics that should have been known after the end of Tingen's story... With Klein's wisdom, it is not difficult to analyze the truth of the matter. In this way, Tingen's story will remain the same as before ?

I think it makes sense... as a "writer" I write.
