Part 3 The Traveler Chapter 78 – The Woolgathering “Inverted Man”
On top of the gray fog, Klein sat down and took out the “Black Emperor” card, which was fused into his spiritual body, and instantly changed back to his original appearance.
This is called a key to change …… He said to himself, while recalling what just happened.
He was almost certain that the “giant” wearing a crown of spires was the “King of the Five Seas” Nast, and the 100-meter sailboat that could navigate the spirit world was the ghost ship “Black Emperor” made by the ancient Solomon Empire. The 100-meter sailboat that can sail in the spirit world is the ghost ship “Black Emperor” made by the ancient Solomon Empire!
”I have always thought that a ghost ship is simply a ship that can sail by itself without sinking, and is closer to a strange creature, but I never thought that the most powerful and top-notch ghost ships can also vaporize themselves and roam the spirit world. ……
”This is almost equivalent to a demigod, isn’t it? It’s worthy of being the most famous ‘Black Emperor’ ship on the five oceans, well …… don’t rule out the possibility that a traveler was sacrificed alive during the manufacturing process ……
”Does one of the most famous treasures, the ship that carries the last legacy of the Trenthost Empire, the ‘Ghost Empire’, possess a similar ability and that’s why it can’t be found?”
Klein’s thoughts drifted away a little bit, and he didn’t first think about the reason why he suddenly encountered the “King of the Five Seas” Nast.
This is a very obvious thing: the law of extraordinary characteristics convergence!
Although the “Black Emperor” card itself did not contain extraordinary characteristics, Rossel had added something or inscribed something during the production process, causing the holder to use this blasphemous card to create a subtle induction with the extraordinary materials he or she needed after being promoted to a higher sequence.
The similar sensing was undoubtedly mutual, sensing others as they naturally would be sensed by others, and it manifested itself as an unconscious proximity to destiny before the holder crossed the demigod ladder.
This was something that Klein knew all too well, and he always suspected that the presence of the Gray Mist allowed some extraordinary person or supernatural event to gather around him.
”Roaming the spirit world with the ‘Black Emperor’ card is more likely to lead to similar situations than using it in reality, because the real world has to abide by many rules, and even if there is a pull of fate, it has to unfold logically, little by little, not that I used the ‘Black Emperor’ card, the ‘King of the Five Seas’ Nast can immediately ride a ghost ship and appear in front of me ……
”Even if he could detect that kind of pull, he would have to go through the process of determining his location and traveling through the spirit world, and several hours or even days would have passed, and if he couldn’t detect it, he would just naturally think of sailing towards the Sunia Sea and approaching the border of the Ruun Kingdom, in which case he might not be able to run into it for several months and years.
”Being in the Spirit World, ‘things’ are simpler, here there is no distinction between far, near, high, low, up, down, left and right, the location and distance is very confusing, the ‘King of the Five Seas’ Nast might just be thinking of going to the Spirit World to take a ride, and it turns out that as soon as he enters the Just saw me passing by, which doesn’t need to abide by the constraints and limitations of realistic geographic locations.” Klein thoughtfully flexed his fingers and tapped up the edge of the long, mottled table.
In addition, he was certain that his uncontrollable devotion to the “Black Emperor” and the “King of the Five Seas” Nast was not due to the law of convergence of extraordinary characteristics; the effect of this aspect was manifested in destiny, sensation and thirst, which would not be so exaggerated, otherwise there would not be the existence of high sequence powerhouses, and they would not be so powerful. Otherwise, there would be no such thing as a High Sequence of Powerful Beings, all of whom would be involuntarily attracted to the Uniqueness of the Pathway.
Klein sensed that it was a transcendent force that distorted and intensified his intention to move forward, making it impossible to stop.
This is a very simple judgment, at that time, even if I threw out the “Black Emperor” card, I could not stop …… This is the “lawyer”, that is, the “Black Emperor”! This is the extraordinary power of the “Lawyer”, the “Black Emperor”? Klein leaned back and decided not to use the “Black Emperor” card for a while.
This also meant that he would not be able to roam the spirit world in search of a messenger.
–If he didn’t bring the “Black Emperor” card with him, and took the “Poseidon Scepter” in the form of his own body, he was bound to leave behind a lot of clues in the Spirit World, which was full of all kinds of information and all kinds of revelations. There is always the possibility of being divined at any time. In terms of anti-divination and anti-prophecy, the Aztec Bronze Whistle is no match for the Black Emperor.
If I did that, I could go to the bar and buy a beer and meet ten people who know I have the Scepter of Neptune. Of course, Klein Moretti has it, so what does it have to do with me, Germaine Sparrow? Klein smiled to himself and shook his head, deciding to use the method of holding a ceremony to get a messenger in case of emergency, and then find a more suitable one later.
He stamped the “Black Emperor” card, and his figure disappeared into the mysterious space above the gray mist.
……
Early in the morning, Bayam was ready to leave the city in his carriage.
Alger was ready to take a carriage out of the city, taking a detour to the private harbor behind the cliffs, where his “Blue Avenger” was docked, waiting to set sail.
As a pirate captain in disguise, he couldn’t just dock his ship in the main harbor of the City of Generosity; that would be a strong indication that he was in close contact with the authorities, as were all other pirates, who had to think about where to anchor before coming to Bayam to sell their loot or enjoy themselves, either in a small harbor in the surrounding waters or in a private harbor controlled by people with deep backgrounds or the Resistance. or a private harbor controlled by people with deeper backgrounds or the Resistance.
Finally, there are no tasks, so I can go out of the harbor …… First, I will go to get a magical item, which can both enhance my strength and even out my accounts, and then I will go to that primitive island and hunt the Blue Shadow Falcon, so that I can upgrade to Sequence 6 as soon as possible …… Alger was just about to walk towards a rented carriage when he unexpectedly saw a familiar figure.
Former pirate now trade merchant Relf walked down from the carriage with a flushed face and looked out at the governor’s mansion not far away, the whole person was permeated with a kind of abnormal exuberance.
What’s wrong with him? Alger was puzzled for a moment and took the initiative to go over and greet him.
In his opinion, Ralph is also his colleague in a sense, both are subordinates of Mr. “Fool”.
Only one is a core member, one belongs to the peripheral organization …… Alger calmly determined the identity and position of the two.
”What has happened to be happy about?” After exchanging pleasantries weather, Alger took the initiative to ask.
Relf let out a laugh and squeezed his eyes and said:
”Do you believe me when I say that I felt the favor of the gods?”
Believe …… Alger answered in his heart without hesitation.
He suppressed his curiosity and turned to ask:
”What are you doing here?”
Relf was about to answer when his eyes suddenly lit up.
He looked around to make sure no one was around before speaking in a low voice.
”Didn’t you say that you also believe in God?”
Alger had lied about having some faith in Poseidon in order to deal with him in the first place, and anyway, this was a fairly normal thing among pirates and wouldn’t draw suspicion – above the sea, the horrible weather was often more terrifying than the enemy, so most pirates, adventurers and crew members and sailors held great reverence for the gods that controlled a similar domain heart, and would more or less believe it.
”Of course.” Alger answered more firmly than ever this time.
Because he knew that the “Sea God” that the other party believed in was the incarnation of Mr. Fool.
Nodding his head in satisfaction, Relf revealed a smile and whispered:
”I received an oracle yesterday, God asked me to help the young lambs.
”I intend to establish a charitable fund for this purpose.
”It is God’s will, and as a follower of k, I’m sure you’d be happy to help in some way.”
He poked out his right hand and waited up for a donation.
Alger’s expression stiffened for a moment, and briefly actually didn’t know how to respond.
His current wealth amounted to £3,245, but that was set aside for a magical item, and the overall situation was not generous at all.
Of course, he could still donate a lot of money if he saved it.
If “Poseidon” was still Kavituva, Alger, who claimed to be a believer, would not hesitate to find a reason and an excuse to shirk the offer, but now, he had to seriously think about what far-reaching intentions Mr. “Fool” had in mind.
Noticing Alger’s reaction, Relf said with a slight twinkle in his eye:
”We want to help those children, pure natives as well as those of mixed blood, who have been unnecessarily discriminated against because of their own lineage, and who are living a hard life and have difficulty seeing hope.”
Alger was silent for a few seconds, and pulled a wad of cash out of his pocket:
”Here’s a hundred pounds.”
Relf took it, smiling slightly:
”Your kindness shall be rewarded.
”God will bless you.”
……
The door panel tilted to cover the entrance to the warehouse.
Klein prepares for the ritual of summoning a spirit creature, the psychedelic scent of herbs and essential oils filling the area around him.
–Worried about making a certain accident inside the inn, without risking himself but endangering the other residents, he went back inside the abandoned warehouse where he had previously sacrificed to Kavituva.
As for Danez, whose bounty had been raised to 5,500 pounds, he very voluntarily asked to stay in the suite and listen in on the radio receivers.
The next step was to light the candle that symbolized himself and use the proven incantation to summon the appropriate spirit world creature as a messenger …… Klein’s mind flowed through Daley Simone’s three-paragraph description and more incantations provided by Mr. Aztec.
When summoning creatures from the spirit world, the first sentence must have descriptions such as “wandering in the midst of delusion” and “traveling in the upper realm”, only then can it point to the spirit world, and the suffixes must make it clear whether it’s a spirit body to be summoned or creatures with a certain amount of flesh and blood, while the second and third sentences are more precise descriptions of the target. The second and third sentences were more precise descriptions of the target, but were limited by the format and could not be determined in more words, so it was difficult for the ceremony performer to predict and divine in advance what would eventually be summoned over.
In this case, using those incantations that had been verified by others would be relatively much less risky.
Once the contract was signed and the third description was changed to uniquely belong to whoever’s messenger and whoever’s contractual partner, the three-paragraph description would be able to accurately summon the corresponding messenger.
”Well, my messenger has to run very fast, or else at some point, it might be taken out by other spirit world creatures with malicious intent, resulting in the loss of an important letter ……,” Klein’s thoughts raced with certainty.
He stepped back and said in ancient Hermetic language:
”I!
”I invoke in my name:
”Spirits that hover in the void, friendly creatures to be driven, haste-makers beyond imagination.”
Woo!
The wind picked up, the candles were tinted with an eerie green, and the surroundings were chilly for a moment.
Klein noticed a vague figure rushing out, too fast to see exactly what it looked like.
Then he couldn’t find the fellow again.
