After starting the search, Lumian took the initiative to talk to the parish priest whom he had killed once, and made some attempts. He met Pierre Berry and told him about the church.
After that, Lumian sneaked into Pierre Berry's house and saw three people who were turned into sheep, which gave rise to more speculations in his mind.
Although he was struggling with the idea of whether or not to kill Pierre Berry, he ultimately did not do so because he was worried about triggering a loop.
"Sheep... people were turned into sheep..."
Lumian walked along the road, thinking about what he had seen:
"This should be the power that the parish priest and his gang got from the evil god they believe in. Otherwise, why would a priest who is so famous in the countryside believe in evil gods?"
It's nothing more than to gain the power that he cannot get in the church!
"If that's the case, then these sheep are most likely the sacrifices for this ceremony!"
Having already disrupted a Lenten ceremony, Lumian quickly thought of the role of these "human sheep" and suddenly had an evil thought in his mind:
"If we kill these sheep and replace them with real sheep, will we be able to ruin the ceremony?"
"This is undoubtedly an act of deceiving the gods. As long as they don't notice that the sheep have been replaced, it is very likely that their ritual will fail or even backfire on them!"
"Although, even though the Godfather told me that everything I'm going through now is unreal, I still have to make sure these bastards get the end they deserve, which is worse than death!"
Lumian rubbed his fingers and suddenly clenched his fists which were shaking uncontrollably.
He exhaled slowly and suppressed the malice in his heart.
It's not that he couldn't bear to kill these sheep that were transformed from humans, but he was worried that killing these sheep would also trigger the cycle.
Lumian's ears moved, and he heard some chaotic footsteps coming towards the sheepfold. He took a last look at where the sheep were, and without hesitation, he used his "hunter" physical fitness to climb out of the sheepfold and return to the road.
"Ask the Godfather? But I don't know where he is now…" Lumian muttered as he walked along the country path.
"But this will put the investigation at a standstill... and today's daytime hours will be wasted here..."
"By the way, the people who know about the cycle here are not only me and the Godfather, but also the mysterious woman in the tavern!"
"I can go ask her! I just don't know if she is in the tavern now!"
Although he said this, Lumian quickly changed direction after this thought came to his mind and walked towards the old tavern.
Even if the mysterious woman is not in the old tavern, he can look for clues to other abnormalities in the village from other angles!
Fortunately, the mysterious lady who gave him some help was sitting in the old tavern. She looked a little serious as she sat there sorting several cards into several piles.
"Ma'am." Lumian quickly walked forward and said to the lady, "I found some problems."
However, Fors (Angel Version) did not answer Lumian's words. She turned her head and said to Lumian:
"I originally thought that you would come to me first to ask about what happened in this village. But now it seems that you have other helpers around you."
She figured it out? Yes, she is also a powerful Beyonder... Lumian was a little surprised, but not too shocked:
"You know what happened to me?"
"No, I'm not watching you all the time." Fors shook her head, gently picked up the wine glass beside her, and took a sip. "It's just that I saw some inharmonious traces and inharmonious fate around you."
Why is it so hard to understand what you say... Lumian compared the woman in front of him with his new godfather and felt that the woman in front of him was always hiding something when she spoke:
"Yes, ma'am. There was some gray mist on him, similar to the one in my dream. I thought he was your companion - but he wasn't?"
Hearing Lumian's words, the serious expression on Fors's face quickly softened, and was replaced by a strange look that Lumian couldn't understand:
"I can't say he's not my companion, but I didn't expect that he would come here in person..."
Why did this lady suddenly have such an expression? This expression was like a sister who was in the last few days of submitting a manuscript...
Lumian thought in his heart with some doubt, but he instinctively felt that what the lady in front of him was thinking and what he said might not be the same thing.
While he was thinking about how to continue the conversation, Fors had already finished the liquor in front of him and said to Lumian in a different tone:
"What help did he give you? Or, let me put it another way: what did he do?"
Lumian considered his words:
"He brought me along to ruin the Lenten rituals... well, in the last cycle. He also told me that where we are now is not real, and saved me when I was about to collapse."
"Then, he asked me to investigate the clues related to this cycle today, and strive to find all the clues of the entire incident in a short period of time and crack this cycle."
Lumian said everything he could in one breath, and raised his head to look at the mysterious lady in front of him. However, he saw that the mysterious lady's expression became even stranger:
"That's indeed his style... Well, since you know so much, it saves me the trouble of explaining. I'll tell you about the 'Gift' and give you some small hints."
…
After telling Lumian about the "gift", hinting that "Twelfth Night is the key point" and answering some of his questions, Fors watched Lumian leave the old tavern with a fruitful experience.
After Lumian left the old tavern, Fors remained sitting there, putting away the tarot cards in front of him one by one, and said to himself:
"Mr. Fool is in such good condition now?"
"It can't possibly be the one that Mr. Fool is fighting for. If it is that person, then I would be the one who is most affected right now…"
"The biggest one, 'Amon', has not returned to this planet either..."
Fors hesitated for a moment, watching the surrounding scene becoming increasingly unreal. He tilted his head hesitantly and whispered tentatively:
"Mr. Fool, are you there?"Chapter 72 Hunting NightTitle of the Book: Mystery: I jump back and forth between two timelines Author: Half Moon Tiger Chapter word count: 2075 words Update time: 2025-06-10 00:30:00
At night, Lumian opened the door of his safe house in his dream and saw his godfather Nimrod standing there waiting for him as always.
"Good evening. Did you find anything today?" Nimrod glanced at Lumian and waved at him:
"Come on, I'll take you hunting tonight - we'll talk as we walk."
"OK."
Lumian didn't ask any more questions. He quickly followed Nimrod's footsteps and told him about his discoveries today one by one, including how he deduced from the words written by the sheep that they were originally human, the performance and reaction of the mysterious lady, and the discovery that his childhood friend Raymond was missing, etc.
"Well, the method you came up with is very good, but you need some help in deceiving others."
Nimrod listened to Lumian's development of the functions of these "human sheep" and nodded slowly:
"Just using sheep that look similar won't be enough to fool the shepherd. I need to mislead the shepherd's mind a little bit - tsk, this name is really weird, it always reminds me of my 'shepherd' friends."
"...You also have a friend who is a shepherd?"
Lumian obviously didn't understand the hidden meaning in Nimrod's words, but he didn't ask any more questions. He just changed the subject:
"Godfather, how should we conduct our 'hunt' tonight?"
"You need to figure it out on your own. Don't you have a shotgun? Could it be that the thing in your hand is a water gun?" Ningluo said:
"Use your brain as a 'hunter' to hunt down a few monsters with higher sequences than you. Learn how to play the role of a hunter, and you will be able to digest most of your potion in one day."
Hearing Nimrod's words, Lumian was a little confused for a moment:
"So simple? I just became a Beyonder..."
Doesn't it say that it takes half a year to digest a sequence of potions?
What does it mean that most of it can be digested in one day?
"For most Beyonders, being ancient does not necessarily mean being powerful. Hunting High-Sequencers is the most dangerous, but also the most efficient way for a hunter to play." Nimrod signaled Lumian to bend down and hide himself in the bunker.
"Come on, pay attention, this is your first target tonight."
Lumian subconsciously looked in the direction Nimrod was pointing and saw a disgusting sight.
A shirtless monster wearing black trousers and without a head and a mouthparts was extending black tentacles to drag a mass of wriggling flesh.
These tentacles extended from the monster's neck - there were spiral sharp teeth on the cross-section of its neck. After dragging the flesh and blood in front of itself with its tentacles, it opened its mouth and began to gnaw on the still wriggling flesh and blood.
"This is a monster blessed by the evil god that the parish priest believes in. I need its flesh and blood to perform some... rituals. Remember to preserve the mark on its chest for me. It will be useful later."
Nimrod laughed and said, "Go ahead. I won't interfere with your hunting tonight unless you are about to be killed by those monsters. Then I will drag you back."
"Remember the special that you triggered here before? Remember your special, it may play an important role."
After saying this, Nimrod sat on the stone next to him and signaled Lumian to act on his own.
You really don't want to help me at all? Lumian habitually complained in his heart, and quickly adjusted his mentality and began to observe the "mouth monster" carefully.
…
After a fierce fight, Lumian used traps and other means to get rid of the "mouthpart monster".
After defeating the monster, he used an axe to chop off the mark embedded in the "Mouthpart Monster's" chest - he originally wanted to peel off that piece of skin, but the "Mouthpart Monster" had been smashed together by his own trap and could not be peeled off.
"Let's go, let's go deeper."
Ningluo put the piece of flesh and blood in a container and stuffed it into the "Source Castle" for Tianzun to analyze. Soon, Ningluo led Lumian to a fresh, strange trace composed of "palm prints" and "footprints".
"Go ahead, follow those footprints and kill their owner." Nimrod patted Lumian's shoulder. "Do you feel that you have digested the potion to a certain extent from the hunting just now?"
"Yes." Lumian had already entered the "Hunter" state and lowered his voice: "But the magnitude is not too large…"
"That's normal."
Nimrod nodded towards Lumian. "After all, the sequence of these monsters is not too high, so their digestion methods are naturally not very good. Later, you can try to kill a mid-sequence Beyonder with a trap. This way, the digestion progress of your Hunter potion will increase significantly."
"Of course, this is also for the success of my subsequent ritual. I am going to extract the power from the seal on your chest, and this requires you to digest the potion to a certain extent."
"After the power in the seal is extracted, the seal on you will become stronger. However, this has both advantages and disadvantages."
Nimrod added:
"Originally, I shouldn't have told you this because it would have caused a rift between us."
"But I don't want to deceive my godson, so I will tell you one thing: if I don't steal the power of the seal on your chest, the lady you meet later will teach you how to extract the power from the seal."
"In other words, these powers should have belonged to you."
"No, it's not important to me." Hearing Nimrod's words, Lumian shook his head with a heavy face:
"I don't care about the power in this seal. I just hope that you can keep your promise and save Aurore from this cycle."
"certainly."
After hearing Nimrod's answer, Lumian calmed himself down, followed the footprints slowly into the gray fog, and prepared to start the second round of "hunting".
After a while, Nimrod also started to move, and while catching up with Lumian from a distance, he casually said:
"How about it, are you sure?"
[If I say I'm not sure, what will you say? ]
The voice of Tianzun sounded in Ningluo's ears, with a slight smile in the voice.
"I'll laugh at you."
Nimrod said without hesitation:
"My Lord, it's ok that you are suppressed by other Old Ones, but you can't even break the seal set by your own successor?"
[...]
[As expected of the godfather who destroys natural disasters. ]
Tianzun was silent for two seconds. He felt that this bastard who had occupied his symbol could not get over this matter. However, he could not understand why he, who had just woken up, knew about this matter:
[Okay, I've figured out how to disguise you as The Fool.]
[Oh, for me, this is a very simple thing. ]Chapter 73 Stealing the GiftTitle of the Book: Mystery: I jump back and forth between two timelines Author: Half Moon Tiger Chapter word count: 2032 words Update time: 2025-06-10 22:08:24
Nimrod looked at Lumian, who was covered in blood and holding the head of the "noodle man", and held his shoulder with his hand:
"You did a great job."
"Come on, let's go back and hold the ceremony in your 'safe house' in this dream ruin."
The two avoided the monsters along the way and quickly returned to Lumian's "safe house".
Of course, since there were so many monsters here, Nimrod also used his "Sun Scythe" which had a double special attack against out-of-control monsters to kill quite a few monsters along the way. Lumian, who had only "hunted" two monsters and was already close to his limit, stared with wide eyes.
As Lumian pushed the door open and walked into the room, he asked Nimrod:
"Godfather, what kind of ceremony do you want to perform?"
"First, we need to perform the mystical ritual according to the most common 'binary ritual method'." Nimrod took out the materials he had collected in the previous cycle of the mysterious timeline from his arms:
"The materials that correspond to the great being that polluted you are gray amber, tulips, lilacs, and musk. Use these materials to make candles and set up magic circles."
"Of course, the essence of this ritual is not to pray to that great being, but to pray to the seal on your chest. So an additional medium is needed - mixing your blood into the candle representing the gods can act as this medium."
Candles are an important part of mystical rituals. Nimrod had already completed the production of these candles before coming to the "Ring Timeline". The only one that required Lumian's blood was not yet completed.
Nimrod skillfully set up a "spiritual wall" around him and did not feel the loss of his spiritual power at all.
And Lumian, at Nimrod's call, cut his palm with a knife and mixed it with the materials for making candles.
Nimrod attached the "Sun Scythe" around the materials, and the heat emitted from them quickly melted the materials into a long strip, which Nimrod then molded into the shape of a candle.
After the candles were placed, Nimrod glanced at Lumian and said to him:
"I will now use the Hermetic language to complete the most important part of this ritual. After leaving this dream, I will begin to systematically teach you the language of the world of mysticism."
"I need to remind you that after you learn the Hermetic language or other languages that can invoke extraordinary power, you must not use it to recite the spell I am going to talk about next. Just reciting it is enough to make you associated with the great being who polluted you and be noticed by Him."
"There is serious pollution in your body. Once it is noticed, the pollution will inevitably become unbalanced. When the time comes, you will be like a balloon that has burst... BANG!"
Nimrod opened his palm and told Lumian the consequences of doing this.
Lumian shook his head firmly.
He can't die no matter what until he successfully rescues his sister!
"Okay, now that you know, I'm going to start." Nimrod motioned for Lumian to sit in front of him, then he lit the candle with spiritual friction and added the materials into the candle.
"Tianzun."
In the depths of his mind, he said to Tianzun:
"Let's get started."
[I am ready.] Tianzun smiled:
[Let's get started. I'm looking forward to the moment when 'Ring of Fate' finds out that his authority has been completely taken away. ]
[Now, it's our first step. ]
After receiving the response from the Heavenly Lord, Ningluo gathered his thoughts and solemnly declared in ancient Hermetic language:
"The power of destiny..."
Gray mist fell from the surroundings like a cloak and fell on Nimrod's body; illusory tentacles made of gray mist spread from under Nimrod's body and gradually merged with the blue-black seal on Lumian's chest.
"You are the past, the present, and the future."
"You are the cause, the result, and the process."
Nimrod didn't use any honorifics, but even so, he naturally activated the power inside the seal. The piece of flesh peeled off from the "mouth monster" was thrown to the ground by Nimrod casually, and the luster on it gradually faded.
Flesh and blood stained with the power of fate is an excellent aid to disguise.
With the cooperation of Ningluo and Tianzun, he is now standing here, and can be recognized as the "Lord of Mysteries" by the "Gray Mist Seal" and as the "Ring of Fate" by the "Fate Pollution"!
Although it can only be used to defraud lower sequences, it is completely sufficient!
"I pray to you..."
"…"
"...I pray that you will grant me the power of 'Dancer'."
The moment Nimrod finished his spell, the flame above the candle suddenly turned into silver-black, and an illusory liquid seemed to flow out of it, hesitating in the air, as if it didn't know who to choose as its carrier.
This gift of being a "dancer" made me feel like I had two "givers" around me!
But, that's enough.
This brief pause was exactly what Nimrod needed.
Ningluo stretched out his hands, and the gray mist under him, under the control of him and Tianzun, enveloped the silver-black liquid, which was the gift of the "Dancer".
Immediately afterwards, the gray mist shrank rapidly and soon condensed into a small gray porcelain bottle.
He took the porcelain bottle, tilted his head back and drank it all.
This - looking at everything that happened in a flash, Lumian's pupils suddenly contracted.
He looked at the blood vessels on Ningluo's exposed face and neck that suddenly bulged, outlining silver-black threads.
He saw that the flesh and blood on Nimrod's body seemed to be melting and twisting, and it seemed like it would be dislocated at any time, but in the end it still maintained its normal state.
After several minutes, he saw Nimrod's body returned to normal. Just when he was about to ask about Nimrod's condition, he saw Nimrod stretched out his hand with extraordinary joint flexibility, broke the two candles in front of him, and destroyed the ceremony in front of him.
Nimrod exhaled a breath of bloody gas and said to Lumian in front of him in a deep tone:
"The power I extracted from your body is equivalent to a Sequence 9 potion. Since it belongs to you, I will give you a corresponding reward."
The best reward is that you can help me rescue Aurore! Lumian was about to refuse when he saw Nimrod wave his hand and said to him:
"Don't refuse. I am your godfather and I will not let you suffer any loss. Later, I will provide you with the formula of Sequence 8 of the Hunter Pathway and help you find the corresponding materials."
"…In addition, I will give you an extra potion of the 'Assassin' path."Chapter 74: Secret TalkTitle of the Book: Mystery: I jump back and forth between two timelines Author: Half Moon Tiger Chapter word count: 2115 words Update time: 2025-06-11 00:30:00
The "Assassin" path? Isn't that a path that allows people to change their gender?
Do you really want your godson to become a goddaughter?
Lumian's scalp suddenly tingled. Just as he was about to ask, he saw the godfather in front of him sitting down, leaning back in the chair, and slowly speaking to him:
"The Assassin potion will not change your gender in the early stages. You will only be able to change your gender when you become a Witch at Sequence 7."
"Moreover, the 'Hunter' pathway itself is similar to the 'Assassin' pathway, and has the effect of turning a female into a male. These two pathways are adjacent pathways, and if you master the 'role playing method', the risk of you losing control is low."
Dunn Smith is the best example, as he absorbed the characteristics left over from multiple dead teammates without even performing a role.
"The 'Assassin' path can make up for your lack of spirituality and make you stronger than the average Beyonder."
"Hehe, in another place, I wonder how many people want to become a 'witch'! Or maybe the atmosphere in Intis is not open enough to some extent..."
What place could be more open than Intis? Lumian couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
Just then, he heard Nimrod continue, "Of course, there is one more important point."
"What?" Lumian blurted out subconsciously.
"Those gods who invest in you require you to repeatedly jump between 'Assassin' and 'Hunter' in order to better become the god they want. Because this way the success rate is higher."
Nimrod drew a spiral pattern in front of him:
"Of course, you can choose to refuse. I will still help you to advance on the Hunter path. However, other great beings may not choose you anymore. Instead, they may abandon you and continue to use you."
"But in this case, why would they give you the resources to save Aurore and give you the opportunity to compete with other 'candidates' for the throne?"
Lumian pondered for a long time: "Will taking an extra dose of the Assassin's potion help me save Auror?"
"Just being able to become a god with a higher success rate is already the biggest help." Nimrod nodded:
"Moreover, in order for Aurore's will to be complete, the feminine side is also indispensable."
To Lumian now, Aurore was in a state of "incomplete consciousness" rather than "soul fragments". Therefore, Nimrod also avoided the term "soul fragments" and prepared to wait for Lumian to discover it himself.
Only when he faces the disaster personally can he wake up from this nightmare that repeats for twelve days.
Lumian's eyes were filled with struggle and pain, but he finally nodded heavily.
…
"Yo, my little cabbages."
Lumian stopped in front of the Intis trio with a smile on his face and said to them:
"Do you want to know the secret of this place? Yesterday, my beloved father and I investigated it and found a huge secret here!"
Leah said warily, "Are you planning to take us to the parish priest again like you did yesterday?"
"Of course not." Lumian still had a smile on his face. "This is not the place to talk. For the sake of the Eternal Sun, can you please listen to my findings? For example… I know who the person you are looking for is."
"Where are we going?" Valentine said to Lumian in a stern tone. Lumian raised his chin.
"Over there. The grove is a favorite place for lovers at night, but it's deserted during the day."
"My father, no, my godfather is waiting there, ready to meet you."
The three of them exchanged glances, and Leah nodded, then said to Lumian in front of her in a joking tone, "Isn't your godfather the parish priest?"
Lumian's eyes revealed undisguised hatred. He tried his best to suppress his emotions, took a step forward, and said in a low voice:
"How is that possible?"
"That's a pig-raised bastard who blasphemed the church and believed in evil gods!"
If it weren't for the priest's ritual, his sister's will would not have become incomplete and become the manipulated one in the cycle!
Valentine's expression suddenly became a little tense, and his face changed drastically, but after looking around, he suppressed his questioning.
Ryan nodded calmly: "Lead the way."
The grove was not too far from where the three of them were, and they quickly walked into the grove. Before entering, Leah gave instructions to her two companions in secret.
The seal on her body that indicated danger made no sound, and she felt that there was no danger ahead.
After entering the grove, Valentine immediately asked anxiously, "What do you mean by what you just said? Do you have any evidence?"
"Yes." Lumian clapped his hands. "But I think we shouldn't talk about such confidential matters in such an unsafe place. At least we should set up a 'spiritual wall', right?"
"You are a Beyonder?" Although Leah was a little surprised, she was not shocked.
"Yes." Ningluo's figure slowly emerged from behind the woods and walked towards where Liya was. "After I was trapped here, I helped him become a Beyonder - in fact, this is the second time we have met."
Nimrod skillfully recounted his fabricated experiences, shocking Lumian for a moment that Nimrod had investigated so many places on his own during the daytime of the previous cycle - but although the stories were true, Nimrod did not conduct in-depth investigations himself.
As for how he knew this, it was because of the events he knew before he traveled through time.
"...Mrs. Pualis, the parish priest, and Twelfth Night." Even Ryan, the calmest of the three, found it hard to believe: "Where are you?"
"I'm not a local, but I have to admit that this place is blessed with talented people." After basically gaining the trust of the Intis trio, Ningluo spread his hands and said, "This strange cycle is not so easy to solve, so we need more manpower."
Valentine's face twitched: "These guys need to be purified..."
He wanted to apply directly to the church for permission to purify the area, but was persuaded by his two companions.
Aside from Valentine, the other two were not members of the Church of the Eternal Sun, and did not want to sacrifice themselves for purification so early.
After some negotiations, the three of them, Nimrod and Lumian finally reached an agreement.
"We can work together until the disaster here is resolved."
Leah stretched out her right hand and gently shook hands with Nimrod:
"But we need to know your overall plan. You know, just like you don't trust the official Beyonders, we don't trust you too much either."Chapter 75 The Eve of ReturnTitle of the Book: Mystery: I jump back and forth between two timelines Author: Half Moon Tiger Chapter word count: 2143 words Update time: 2025-06-11 20:30:00
"This is as it should be. I have assisted the official Beyonders in some cooperation before, and I am very clear about the status of wild Beyonders in the eyes of the authorities."
Nimrod did not refuse, but briefly talked about the next plan and finally made a summary:
"...In general, the administrator's residence and the basement of the church are the two places we need to investigate. We can't even take the initiative to interrupt the Lenten celebration this time, because that would put us into the cycle again."
"You have one day to think about it. Of course, Lumian and I will also need some time to prepare."
Liya nodded: "If we agree with your plan, how can we tell you?"
"We will meet here then. We will go to 'visit' Mrs. Pualis tomorrow morning at the latest."
Nimrod smiled and said:
"Although the church will be responsible for the pollution here in the end, that is based on the premise that everything here is purified... I think you are still unwilling to give up your lives, right?"
"I am also unwilling to give up my life, so we can cooperate on this matter."
Valentine was about to say something when Ryan pulled him back, while Leah maintained a negotiating smile and said to Nimrod:
"You're right. No matter what, let's agree on a time. We will all be here at this time tomorrow and tell you our choice."
"Tomorrow morning, Lumian and I will be waiting for you here." Nimrod said to the three people:
"In addition, we have a Beyonder companion, a Sequence 7 Mystery Peer. You should know that Mystery Peer is one of the paths mastered by the Church of the Evernight Goddess, and it is not a path that leans towards evil and chaos."
The three of them finished their negotiation with Nimrod and left the grove cautiously. Lumian looked at the three of them as they left, frowning and saying:
"They don't seem to believe what you said. Can they really help us..."
Hearing the uncontrollable anxiety in Lumian's tone, Nimrod comforted Lumian:
"They are all mid-sequence Beyonders with excellent ability combinations, and they are a good fighting force. What we lack most now is manpower. Otherwise, how can we break the cycle and rescue your sister?"
Lumian was quickly convinced by this: "Godfather, what should we do next?"
Time is very precious now. We can't waste the whole afternoon, right?
"I've already told you to go find your sister Aurora." Nimrod sighed, as if he was impressed by Lumian's intelligence in his dream:
"Although, like everyone else in Koldu Village, she will become rigid over time and will only act according to her own logic, but a Sequence 7 Beyonder is indeed a great help."
"Have you noticed that in the last cycle, the parish priest already possessed a strong extraordinary ability? If he hadn't wanted to change my fate, he would never have been dealt with so easily... Not to mention, I just mentioned the matter of Mrs. Pualis."
"I guess that she has not yet obtained divinity and is only at Sequence 5. But if we investigate her, we will inevitably become hostile to her."
"Don't forget, she can even make a man have children - find more helpers, and then you will stand in front of Mrs. Pualis?"
Lumian suddenly felt something in his body tighten. Nimrod paused for a moment and then continued:
"Aurore is a Sequence 7 Wizard of the Secret Voyeur pathway. With her around, we can avoid some unnecessary help. Of course, with the assistance of the three official Beyonders, we do have a chance to kill a Sequence 5."
"Fighting head-on is not what a Hunter should do. That's what a Warrior should do."
…
Late at night, Lumian lay quietly in his bed, waiting for the dream to come.
He spent the entire afternoon today convincing Aurore that he was now in a cycle, and he and Aurore arranged a meeting with the official trio tomorrow.
But every time he thought of Aurore's half-believing and half-doubting look this afternoon, and of how she would forget the memory of the previous "cycle" after each time, Lumian felt an unspeakable pain in his heart.
Arriving in the Dream Ruins, under Nimrod's instructions, Lumian began to practice hunting and play the role of "hunter" just like last night - for him, this Dream Ruins is a perfect hunting ground. As long as he does not suffer life-threatening injuries, he will have recovered most of his strength by the time he returns to Cordu Village.
Ningluo returned to the "Source Castle" early, and while paying some attention to Lumian's movements, he was ready to return to the real world at any time to give Lumian the cat car (Note 1), while chatting with Tianzun about things related to the "Ring of Fate".
After receiving the gift of "Dancer", Ningluo was thinking about how to erase the mark of "Ring of Destiny".
The solution proposed by Tianzun was to give this gift to Him, and He would be able to digest it as a "dancer" in three minutes; but Ningluo vetoed Tianzun's solution and planned to become a real "dancer" in Rune.
By "digesting the magic potion", he can devour the authority of the "Ring of Fate" bit by bit and make the spirit imprinted in the gift completely disappear from this universe.
After becoming a "dancer", Nimrod's physical fitness has been significantly improved - at least he is no longer as fragile as a normal "thief", and the flexibility of his body has also changed fundamentally, entering an extraordinary realm; his spirituality has also improved to a certain extent, but it is better than nothing.
Of course, it is also possible that the blue bar of the "Decryption Scholar" itself is long enough.
But the most important thing, what Ningluo was talking about with Tianzun, was the "dance" attached to the "dancer" itself.
"You said, if I continue to improve my sequence and then design a dance that points to you..."
Nimrod suddenly came up with an idea:
"Can you play on my behalf?"
[I think this is feasible. After all, now you are equal to me and I am equal to you.]
Tianzun was obviously very interested in this topic: [Why don't you try it? ]
Ningluo laughed, then decisively gave up the idea.
He was not going to try to summon Tianzun on his own body - at least not now. Who knows, Tianzun might be up to no good and take this opportunity to snatch his body away.
Even if he wanted to try, he would only do so after making sure that Tianzun could not occupy his body for a long time.
At this moment, Ningluo suddenly saw that in the depths of the gray fog in the "Source Castle", there were some deep red stars twinkling.
He walked over slowly and touched the crimson stars with his palm. After a while, he whispered softly:
"April Fools' Day?"Chapter 76 April Fools' Day and PrayersTitle of the Book: Mystery: I jump back and forth between two timelines Author: Half Moon Tiger Chapter word count: 2129 words Update time: 2025-06-12 00:30:00
Speaking of the most evil organization, "April Fools' Day" may not be on the list. There are too many secret organizations in this world that cannot even be described with the word "anthropomorphism" but with the word "metaphor".
But if we talk about the earliest organizations, "April Fools' Day" must be one of them.
Spreading the malicious news of lobe removal surgery to the world, harming fellow time travelers, and driving mentally ill patients crazy who were seeking medical treatment - these are all things that "April Fools' Day" has done.
Even everything that Lumian is going through now, "April Fool's Day" has played a role.
They deliberately gave Aurore the wrong spell, causing Aurore to call back the soul of the original owner of this body, the soul of Roche Louise Sanson who believed in the "Circle of Fate", into her own body, leading to the final tragedy.
If this organization was just a group of extraordinary people who had obtained the knowledge of the old days, then Nimrod would at most put them on the same table with those evil cults in his mind.
But all members of this organization are "survivors of the old days".
The fun they seek and the malice they exude are simple and low-level. Most of them don't even have a clear goal. They just do evil for the sake of evil and swing their blades at their companions who come from the same hometown as them.
In the end, their endings were applauded. They believed in the Heavenly Lord, but were never taken seriously by the Heavenly Lord. They were just chess pieces that could be used at will, and each of them died a worthy death.
But Ning Lu felt that he could speed up the fate of these people. Since he was now equivalent to "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun", it shouldn't be too much to let them have some good luck.
[This is probably my believer who believes in this timeline. ]
Tianzun withdrew his gaze from Nimrod:
[Alas, in this timeline, I seem to have been forced into a terrible state by the Fool. Am I willing to give my gift to these guys? This is so real that I can't help but laugh.]
"Do you even mock yourself?"
Ningluo was somewhat speechless. He dragged the brightest crimson star in front of him and gently touched the surface of the crimson star with his fingers:
"If I remember correctly... this is 'Loki', you also gave him the 'Miracle Master' four resurrections."
[Ha, I can even choose something like this... It seems that there really is no manpower left.] Tianzun muttered, and sold out his own self in this timeline without hesitation:
[Just send him some random hints, and then hide some malicious options in the deepest part of the hints - believe me, this self-righteous fool will be fooled. ]
[As for the others? Haha, there is no need to use hints to disguise your malice, just send them the oracle directly, and they will attack themselves and think that they have misunderstood my meaning. ]
…
When Nimrod opened his eyes again, he felt very happy.
It was clearly the first time that he disguised himself as a god to send out oracles, and it was clearly the first time that he harmed those newborns who made him unhappy. These two happy things happened together...
That's double the happiness, it's really fucking great.
Ningluo had a slight smile on his face and stretched out his fingers to touch the inverted cross tattoo on the back of his neck.
At this moment, the tattoo was emitting a slight heat, as if the real creator was looking at him in confusion through this gift.
Ning Lu changed into a set of loose and comfortable clothes, then casually put on a piece of clothing and walked out of his room easily.
He walked along the corridor, and the slightly gentle breeze outside the window blew along the outline of the window into the room, carrying the unique humidity of the Kingdom of Loen. As Nimrod walked down the stairs, he casually glanced at the bright firelight in the rooms on both sides, where believers were praying.
——Those who are still praying devoutly until now are either extraordinary people on the "Secret Prayer" path, or those devout reserves.
During the day, some of them were housekeepers, some were servants, and some were gardeners, but at night, they had only one identity.
They are all the Lambs of the Lord.
[I don't like this scene very much.]
Tianzun expressed his dissatisfaction in the sheepfold of the real Creator without any hesitation:
[Lamb of God - Ah, they only need to pray, and as long as they give their brains to their supreme Lord, they can get the greatest happiness. ]
As Nimrod walked towards the basement, where he and Mr. Z had their prayer room, he smiled and said to the Lord of Heaven:
"Isn't it the same with your secret dolls? They don't need to think either."
[That's different.] Tianzun said: [I only need the body, I don't even need the brain.]
"…"
Nimrod was rarely silent for a moment, then he walked into his prayer room, skillfully sealed it completely with the spiritual wall, and lit the candles one by one according to the requirements of the ceremony.
Under the light of the candle, the upside-down statue of the "True Creator" slowly cast a shadow, completely covering Nimrod's figure.
Nimrod stared at the statue, stretched out his hand, and wiped away the gray mist behind his neck. At the same time, his eyes were covered with a layer of light gray - this was to use the power of "Source Castle" to protect his mind, and it was a protective measure before directly communicating with the "True Creator".
"The Lord who created everything, the Lord behind the veil of shadows, the fallen self of all living things."
"I beg you to look away and have face-to-face communication with me."
When Nimrod spoke the name of the true Creator and completed the ritual, he suddenly felt a hot touch coming from the inverted cross behind his neck.
The next moment, the surroundings seemed to be shrouded in layer upon layer of shadows. Behind the curtain, blood-red eyes seemed to open up, staring coldly at Nimrod in front of him from all angles.
There was still a deep gray in Nimrod's eyes. He raised his head and looked at the statue that suddenly seemed to have spirituality.
A chaotic murmur sounded in Nimrod's ears, but after being filtered through the gray fog, he directly understood the meaning of this frantic murmur:
"You are not Amon."
"You have the power of the Outer Gods in you."
"Who are you?"
Feeling the sudden rise of depravity and malice around him, Nimrod smiled, and a faint gray mist appeared around him:
"You should have noticed that I have the protection of Sefirah Castle on me."
"True Creator, I know what you want, and I want to make a deal with you."
"How much you loved this world - but your angel king betrayed you, your subordinate God betrayed you, and your salvation also betrayed you (Note 1). How pleasant it sounds, they really put all the sins on you."
"But I can help you regain your normal spirit, so that your followers will no longer die tragically for listening to your voice."
"I can help you save the world."Chapter 77 TransactionTitle of the Book: Mystery: I jump back and forth between two timelines Author: Half Moon Tiger Chapter word count: 2040 words Update time: 2025-06-12 20:30:00
The surrounding malice paused for a moment, as if weighing the pros and cons. After a while, the next round of terrifying mutterings emerged from the shadow curtain around the statue:
"You are the incarnation of Sefirah Castle...?"
"You are fighting with Guimi for control of Sefirah Castle..."
"…"
"…Tell me your deal, and I will consider it."
Did He recognize me as the incarnation of Sefirah Castle? Nimrod's temples throbbed with pain, but he still spoke calmly:
"As you can see, I control 'Source Castle' and am the person most likely to become the 'Lord of Mysteries' in this era."
"The power of the Outer Gods in me is a gift I stole from the Ring of Fate. Haha, you know, Error, Eternal Doom, and Eternal Law are adjacent paths, and I can erase the spiritual imprint of the Ring of Fate."
"The Eternal One" and "The Law of Eternal Life" are extraordinary paths of "The Ring of Fate" and "The Goddess of Fate" respectively.
"Finally, I have no ill will towards your son. If we reach a deal, then even if I defeat him in the end, I can spare his life and retain his status as an archangel."
"This is my basic situation, and in this respect, our interests are aligned."
"And the deal I'm going to propose is that I'll help you get rid of the erosion of God's consciousness, so that you can return to normal and gain the upper hand in the fight with Adam; and you have to choose to help me in the fight for the Lord of Mysteries, so that I can become the final Lord of Mysteries."
"After that, I will help all of humanity survive the apocalypse and protect the entire human population as much as possible during the apocalypse."
"Before I become the Lord of Mysteries and have the ability to defraud contracts, I will find the Wishing Lamp for you and take back your path to the Sun, so that you can have the ability to sign a contract with me that is difficult to renege on."
"As the price of the deal, you have to support me from now on, and I will also help you add your own anchor so that you can gradually regain consciousness."
The surrounding shadow curtain paused for a moment, but soon, frantic whispers once again flooded into Nimrod's ears:
"I need a carrier to bear my fallen nature."
"At the same time, I will baptize you. Before you complete the contract, the power I grant you will prevent you from becoming a 'mysterious'."
The True Creator weighed the issue for a long time and came up with a way to ensure that the transaction would go through.
"No problem." Nimrod calmly reached into the gray mist in front of the true Creator and took out the scales of Ouroboros from the gray mist:
"This is the talisman I asked Ouroboros for. It should be enough to bear some of your 'corrupted nature'. If it's ok, then fulfill your part of the contract, ally."
The true creator did not answer, but a frantic and crazy consciousness gradually gathered in the air and drilled into the snake scales in Nimrod's hand.
The silver-white scales in Ning Lu's hand were immediately dyed with the same color as if thick ink had been dropped into a cup.
But the next moment, drops of silvery-white liquid suddenly appeared on the black scales. These silvery-white liquids outlined circular patterns, making the black scales turn light gray.
Then, the black color once again occupied most of the entire scale, repeating the scene that just happened.
Ningluo only felt that something was growing in the inverted cross behind his neck, and a deep power was injected into the inverted cross through scales.
The voice of the true Creator came from Nimrod's ears. After being filtered through the gray fog and the "restart" spell, His voice became less harsh and much smoother:
"I gave you my gift."
"You will walk on this land as my messenger. The grace of God on you symbolizes your authority..."
"You can use this amulet given to you by Ouroboros to restrain my divinity..."
The true Creator's mumbling gradually became quieter, and then there was no sound anymore.
After his voice completely disappeared, the voice of the Lord came from Nimrod's other ear:
[A copy of the characteristics of the 'Filthy Elder'? Hey, I have a plan...]
"Tianzun, put away your little tricks."
Nimrod said casually, his spirit stirred, and he extinguished the burning candles in the finished ceremony in front of him.
The true Creator's method was very simple. He sealed his own characteristics and passed them to Nimrod in the form of a "gift". He "polluted" Nimrod with a characteristic of Sequence Two, making the characteristics in Nimrod not pure enough to become the Old One.
Of course, the true creator also knows that as long as he is willing to find a way, the "wrong" path can always find all kinds of strange ideas to wash away the characteristics that he has sealed in him.
But the willingness to retain this feature is itself a sign of sincerity in the transaction.
This may be some kind of PTSD from God regarding the mysterious.
Ningluo examined the divine mark on the back of his neck. At this moment, this inverted cross contained an extraordinary characteristic equivalent to that of an angel. It was well sealed on his body by the true Creator and the "Source Castle". It looked like a birthmark unique to the Qiao family (Note 1).
However, because this extraordinary characteristic was sealed too well, Ningluo was unable to use the power contained in this extraordinary characteristic. He only exuded a strong aura of "corruption" belonging to the true creator.
The advantage is that it can intimidate some evil spirits and spiritual creatures with low intelligence, as well as extraordinary people on the "Destiny" path. After all, the essence of the real creator is the evil spirit of the ancient sun god, the strongest evil spirit in the entire mysterious world.
But it was a good thing to get the support of the real Creator. Nimrod walked out of the basement in a good mood, but he unexpectedly saw the doors of the rooms on both sides slowly opening, and the "secret praying people", "listeners" and a small number of "hermit monks" looked at him fanatically.
Mr. Z, who had lost some of his faith after losing sight of Megose, also appeared here. He was wearing a flesh-and-blood cloak woven with the extraordinary ability of the "Rose Bishop", and his handsome face looked haggard and excited:
"God's messenger!"
"Just now, just now it was you..."
He could hardly continue his words, his throat trembled and his eyes were filled with ecstasy and disbelief.
Just now, his Lord truly brought His will here! His Lord truly looked at him, even if it was just a glance, it was a great honor.
Looking at the people prostrating themselves before him, Ningluo declared in a calm tone:
"Yes."
"Just now, I had a vision of the Lord."Chapter 78 IntermissionTitle of the Book: Mystery: I jump back and forth between two timelines Author: Half Moon Tiger Chapter word count: 2040 words Update time: 2025-06-13 00:30:00
"The Lord is about to descend upon this world. We are the luckiest group of believers since the Fourth Epoch."
Nimrod continued:
"Because we can see the coming of the Lord."
Seeing the emotions of the believers in front of him gradually rising, Nimrod raised his tone:
"That's exactly it!"
"We can't continue as we have been doing - everyone, the Lord is awake!"
"Does the most merciful and kind Lord need a blood sacrifice to come into this world? Of course not, my compatriots. We were previously blinded by foreign gods. The Lord does not need a blood sacrifice. What the Lord needs is the Lamb of His love."
"The Lord's teachings often say that the Lord will bear all sins. But this cannot be an excuse for us to do evil. 'If we say that we have not sinned, we make God a liar, and His word is not in us' (note 1)."
"Even if the Lord bears the sins we have committed, can we face our past mistakes calmly?"
"Once our current disaster is over, we will need a thorough change - everyone, we must face up to our previous mistakes and let the Lord see the piety and efforts of his believers..."
The eyes of most of the Aurora believers present were filled with fanatical and devout flames, but a few extraordinary people and ordinary people avoided their gazes - but due to the fanatical gazes of the people around them, they also hid themselves well.
Ningluo saw all of this, and he was not surprised by the existence of these people in the Aurora Society.
Rather, based on the Aurora Society's previous style of doing things, it would be strange if it did not attract people who wanted to use the power of the Aurora Society to vent their desires.
However, the most important "Oracle of the True Creator" is already in hand, so we can start trying to overhaul the Aurora Society.
In this world, the seven churches of righteous gods today were all transformed from the churches of evil gods in the beginning. But even if the underlying logic of this world is cannibalism, the church cannot promote it in this way when it publicizes itself to the outside world.
After all, there are still few crazy people who think about destroying the world all day long. Most people want to find a belief to rely on so that they can survive the obstacles in front of them because they can't survive or have done something wrong.
We cannot count on Feng Baizhi's three churches. If they really had no selfish desire to become like the old ones, then the belief in the true Creator would not have declined to that extent after the Fourth Epoch.
The God of Steam is most likely in a neutral position, and the Mother Goddess of the Earth should acquiesce to the "True Creator" to preach in all places outside of Feynaporte - after all, He has no control over matters outside of His own country.
The Goddess of Night... I don't know her attitude, but she hasn't erased it for me yet. Maybe she is worried that I am the real Heavenly Lord.
Therefore, if you want to preach as the "True Church", you must remove those who hold such ideas from the Aurora Society.
[Did you forget to mention a god? ] Tianzun said suddenly.
"The God of War will not live long. Don't worry about Him."
Ninglu shook his head and returned to his room, preparing to have a good rest for the night and deal with the affairs of the Aurora Society tomorrow.
The digestion of "Dancer" cannot be rushed. Even if he can digest it, Lumian cannot be promoted to the next sequence for the time being, and cannot extract the gifts of a higher sequence. And completely digesting "Dancer" will not bring him much improvement, so it is not a priority.
At this moment, Nimrod suddenly turned around and looked at the darkness around him.
In the dark room, the air suddenly twisted, and "activated void" squeezed out from the gap in the air. Inside "His" circular white pupils, a rolled-up parchment floated there.
The Activated Void trembled, and a message condensed into one sentence came:
"Letters from two weak demigods."
Two weak demigods sent me a letter? Well, the Dark Saint and the Mysterious Saint... they are indeed weak for an angel, even an incomplete angel.
Ningluo easily decompressed the information given by "Activated Void", propped up his upper body, rubbed his spirituality to light the candle beside him, and unfolded the letter in his hand.
"I have found some auxiliary materials and one main material for the 'Fire Thief' path..." Nimrod glanced at the letters written to him by the two saints.
The true Creator had already officially sent down an oracle to them, appointing them as His favored ones, so the two saints were not surprised by the strangeness of their messenger.
After reading the letter, Ninglu shook his head and said, "It's a pity that the crystal nematodes may be extinct now, otherwise the Secret Saint would have sent them to me long ago."
There are about 20,000 potions from Sequence 9 to Sequence 0. Not to mention the entire universe, even compared to a planet, this number is too small - Amon's many clones are not split from one Beyonder characteristic.
However, the "Dark Saint" mentioned in the letter that the "Secret Saint" had divined that there was a "Fire Thief" with extraordinary characteristics in the sea, and planned to wait until the matter in Tingen City was over and they could move freely before "taking" it.
Ning Lu thought about it and still felt that the extraordinary characteristics predicted by the "Secret Saint" would be active. In addition, there was a "fire thief" in Tingen City, so he felt that there was no need to trouble the "Secret Saint" to help him kill on the spot.
…
The next morning, Ning Lu got up early. He did not wear his expensive suit today, but took a cheap suit from the warehouse and put it on himself, and put the divine spell of the real creator into his pocket.
It didn't take long for Nimrod to find Sirius, who was frantically searching for something under the arrangement of "0-08" - it seemed that Ince Zangwill's current condition had not yet fully recovered, so much so that he was now competing with "0-08" for the direction of the script.
Nimrod and Sirius passed each other. He lowered his head, pressed the divine amulet on his chest with one hand, and stroked the corner of Sirius' clothes with the other hand. A small inverted cross mark was quietly imprinted on Sirius' body and quickly blended into it.
This is a little bit of the divinity of the real Creator.
Go and arrange it, Ince Zangwill. After Nimrod walked away, he took out the divine spell from his arms and shook it gently.
Go and arrange for the believers of the "True Creator" to write your own ending with your own hands.Chapter 79 AzikTitle of the Book: Mystery: I jump back and forth between two timelines Author: Half Moon Tiger Chapter word count: 2013 words Update time: 2025-06-13 20:30:00
Admisol stood in front of the door of the "Dragon Bar" trembling with fear. He was confused for a moment and didn't know whether he should go in now.
With Mr. L's "sincere help", he successfully joined the Aurora Society, believed in the "Angel of Destiny" who served the "True Creator", received the Angel of Destiny's gift, and became a "monster".
The "Aurora Society" and the "Storm Church" are in an absolutely hostile relationship.
Then I shouldn't have come here, right...?
"Hey, isn't this the 'monster' Ademisol?" An old drinker who often comes to the Dragon Bar said to Ademisol in front of him:
"We didn't see you for several days and thought you were dead."
"I... I'm not dead." Admisol said dazedly.
He felt his mind was clearer than ever before. The annoying messy lines that he had difficulty seeing clearly disappeared in front of him. He followed his instinct and said:
"I was frightened before, so I ran away for a few days and couldn't find my way back..."
"Tsk, then you missed yesterday's excitement." The old drinker staggered to Admisol's side, put his strong arm around his shoulders, and led him into the tavern:
"Yesterday, a woman came here with a chick. A bastard flirted with the woman and got into trouble. He peed his pants for no apparent reason and ended up losing all his money. He was stripped naked and thrown out..."
When the old drinker heard what he said, happy laughter suddenly broke out all around.
…
Klein's face twitched slightly, and he inexplicably recalled what happened last night when Ms. Daly took him to the Dragon Bar.
According to Daly, Old Neil had taken many newly recruited "Nighthawks" to the underground market there, and it had become a latent tradition - although Old Neil had returned to the temple and was no longer a Nighthawk, this tradition could still be preserved.
And then...and then a drunk man spoke rudely to Ms. Daly and was taught a lesson by her...Why did I suddenly think of this!
Klein rubbed his forehead, feeling that something had changed in Ms. Daly, a change for the better.
"What's wrong, Klein?"
Just as Klein was distracted, a gentle voice suddenly came from the side. Klein raised his head from the book and said to Azik in front of him:
"When I saw these materials, I suddenly remembered something."
He came this morning to look up the information on Mount Honachis, firstly to investigate what he had dreamed about, and secondly because Nimrod had mentioned something related to "Antigonus" before.
After reading this information, he began to suspect that the ancient country in the "Honachis Peak" mentioned in the book was the kingdom of God of "Half Fool" Antigonus!
When Azik heard Klein's words, he naturally thought of Klein's two classmates. He sighed:
"It's really a pity. They were all children with great potential. Phew, let's not talk about this topic anymore, Klein. The dead cannot be resurrected. I don't want you to encounter similar dangers while investigating this matter."
As expected, I was reminded of the two classmates of the original owner of this body... However, Mr. Azik really cares about "me"... Klein took a breath:
"I understand, Mr. Azik."
At this moment, Azik frowned:
"But Klein, I have taken some courses related to divination. I just found that your fate seems inconsistent. Have you come into contact with something dangerous again? Or, have you encountered any coincidences recently?"
Mr. Azik can also tell fortunes? Klein looked at Azik in surprise and quietly opened his spiritual vision, but found nothing wrong.
However, since Azik mentioned "coincidence", Klein also took Azik's words seriously:
"How do you know?"
"...It seems that my prediction is relatively accurate." Azik said thoughtfully:
"Klein, you need to be careful recently. I feel that the sense of disharmony in your fate is increasing rapidly and it is already very obvious. You are likely to be in danger soon. If possible, you'd better ask for help from others, such as officials or people with special abilities."
Ask for official help? I am an official Beyonder... But I can go above the gray fog to divine whether Mr. Azik's words are correct, and thus get the information indirectly!
Of course, it would be best to discuss this with Captain Dunn and Nimrod. Perhaps Ince Zangwill is preparing to launch the final attack!
However, judging from Mr. Azik's tone, he is also a Beyonder?
Klein suppressed his excitement. After saying goodbye to Azik, he quickly returned to his home. He walked four steps backwards and came to the top of the gray fog. When he was about to reach out and touch the crimson star that belonged to Nimrod, he stopped and said hesitantly:
"I don't know what he is doing now..."
If he is currently engaged in a battle of wits and courage with the members of the Aurora Society, wouldn't it be harming him if I suddenly pulled him up?
Moreover, he is also protected by the gray fog, so I cannot predict his specific current situation!
By the way, Nimrod has a messenger that looks very oppressive. I can summon it and use his messenger to ask him some questions.
Klein did what he said. He quickly simulated the feeling of his spirit falling and walked quickly to his desk. After writing down the things related to Azik, he took a deep breath and slowly recited the spell to summon the messenger:
"A traveler in the upper realm, an animated being roaming the void, a messenger belonging to Nimrod Emonsar..."
After doing all this, Klein began to wait while thinking about what to do next.
Well, there might be a fight later, so I need to improve my fighting skills... Go to the Dragon Bar to buy some extraordinary materials? This is one of the options, but the best way is to improve my sequence.
By the way, I have been noticed by the higher-ups of the Church of Evernight, and I am digesting the potion very quickly. Perhaps I can try to apply for a special promotion from the church.
But the church doesn't have the Joker's potion formula publicly available... Do I have to find it myself?
Just when Klein was feeling troubled, a letter suddenly appeared from the air and hit him on the head.Chapter 80: Guidance of "Destiny"Title of the Book: Mystery: I jump back and forth between two timelines Author: Half Moon Tiger Chapter word count: 2029 words Update time: 2025-06-14 00:30:00
This messenger is a little unfriendly... Klein muttered quietly and opened Nimrod's letter.
Nimrod's letter was brief, but it made Klein ponder.
"Azik? Ask him if his last name is Eggers. If so, then what he said is almost certain and should be correct."
"As for the coincidence you mentioned, I have a person here who went missing along with Hynes Vincent, who was arranged by Ince Zangwill. It looks like this is the '0-08' scenario."
"You are a 'Fortune Teller' who specializes in divination. You can try to see if you can predict his location."
"——But be careful. I left some traps on him to target '0-08'. You must not divine anything other than the location. Once you divine the 'trap' I set on him, you might suddenly die, or at least be contaminated."
"Oh, and please help me divine the location of a man named 'Admithal'. His belongings and the information about the missing True Creation believer Sirius are both included in the letter. It's urgent."
Trap? You wouldn't extract the gray fog or bring the pollution of the true creator to Sirius, would you? Klein sighed as he took out a folded paper from the letter.
Klein opened the paper with the information "Sirius Arepis" and a few strands of Admisor's hair. After writing it down, he walked four steps backwards to the gray fog to prepare for divination.
…
Ademisol is missing.
This was the information reported by several panicked True Creation believers. Whether from the perspective of "fellow countrymen" or from the perspective of "this is someone brought back by Mr. L", they did not dare to hide anything.
After all, the disappearance of a Beyonder is often due to the capture of the official church, and in this case, no one knows whether the official church will follow the clues to find their headquarters in Tingen City.
After receiving the divination information from Klein, Nimrod came to the "Dragon Bar" controlled by the Church of Storms with ease.
Looking at Admisor standing uneasy at the door, Nimrod took him to a small alley and said to him:
"Why are you here again? It's very dangerous for you here now."
Hearing the gentle voice of "Mr. L", Ademisol scratched his hair with his fingers and opened his mouth:
"I'm sorry, Mr. L. I just followed those compatriots who joined the church before me to buy supplies. Then after I separated from them, I don't know how I ended up here..."
"I always feel like fate is leading me here."
There was a calm sound coming from the spirit wall next to him. Ningluo had long guessed that Admisol would most likely not consider so much and would directly use the internal name of the Aurora Society to call himself outside, so he arranged the "Spirit Wall" in advance to prevent leaks.
After all, Admisol's gaze was so pure and simple, there was a kind of purity that returned to nature.
However, after hearing what Admisor said, Ningluo narrowed his eyes slightly and immediately thought of something.
"A revelation from 'fate'?" he whispered:
"Will there be anything special happening in the Dragon Bar today? Oh, if Old Neil hadn't been sent back to the temple, Klein would have known Swain a long time ago and tried to find clues about Sirius from him..."
Thinking of this, Ningluo suddenly smelled the scent of "coincidence" in the whole thing.
It is known that Sirius' current state is that basically all his actions are arranged by the extremely poor Ince Zangwill and the runaway "0-08", so it is no coincidence that Klein and Sirius can meet.
Even if Klein could divine Sirius's location, as long as "0-08" exerted his power, it would be difficult for Klein to find Sirius in the real world.
But Sirius was obviously not the main force used by Ince Zangwill to attack the church, but the out-of-control Megose.
In order to prevent Klein from being contaminated by the true Creator, he also specifically reminded Klein of the scope of divination - in this case, his previous arrangements should have worked.
But Nimrod didn't expect it to work so quickly.
After Ince Zangwill arranged for Sirius, the traces of the fate created by him and Sirius were captured by the True Creator, and perhaps a slight contamination had been completed.
Then, after I signed the covenant with the True Creator, would the Angel of Destiny named Ouroboros, who is the True Creator's most loyal follower, also use his believers to fight against Adam and give me some hints?
After so many prerequisites were listed one by one in Nimrod's mind, he immediately realized that there was definitely something important enough in the Dragon Bar today.
Ningluo took a hidden look at the Dragon Bar and said to Admisor, "You go back first and don't go out for a while. I will ask Mr. Z to arrange a new job for you later."
Admisol was stunned for a moment, and nodded like pounding garlic:
"Ok, ok, I understand, Mr. L."
After seeing off Admisor, Ningluo's expression became slightly solemn. He walked quickly towards the underground market of the Dragon Bar. After crossing the room, he immediately changed his state and pretended to be collecting the extraordinary materials he liked.
——This is the basic quality of a "scammer". Every successful "scammer" is an excellent actor.
While walking around the stalls in the underground market, Nimrod kept an eye on the people around him to see if there was anything worth his attention. He activated "Excellent Observation" and "Spiritual Vision" at the same time, and a large number of light spots and spots of various colors appeared in front of his eyes.
The underground market had not yet reached its peak, and there were not too many buyers or sellers. Along the way, Nimrod could only see some people negotiating and buying and selling extraordinary materials.
Just as Ningluo turned a corner, he suddenly heard a sweet voice coming from not far away. He turned around and saw a lady in a light green dress talking to the stall owner:
"…What does a 'witch' look like in your mind?"
When Nimrod heard this voice, he knew why Admisor came here - this was indeed the guidance of "fate".
The one standing before Nimrod now was none other than the divine vessel of the "Original Witch" Chike:
"Triss Chick"!
