The Faceless Man Chapter 98 – Observing Each Other
Klein sat down leisurely in the seat belonging to the “Fool” and looked around the circle:
”This is Ms. Magician, our newest member.”
He then looked over at Fools and introduced them one by one:
”This is Miss ‘Justice’, and this is Mr. ‘Inverted Hangman’……”
Voorhees nodded his head in greeting as he matched the code names to the characters and observed the members:
Miss “Justice” is a blonde lady, seems to be very young, and sits quite elegantly; Mr. “The Inverted Man” has dark blue hair, messy like seaweed, his body is not too strong, although he is not talkative, but when being watched by him, there is a kind of uneasiness, he should be the leader of a certain power Mr. Sun seems to be just a teenager, very silent and introverted, but otherwise, I can’t see anything else, maybe he is as weak as I am; Mr. World has a cold gaze and is rather gloomy. Mr. World’s eyes are very cold, quite gloomy, at first glance is not good to mess with …… the writer of a best-selling novel Ms. play to their own strengths.
As she looked at several other members, several other members were likewise looking, with Audrey “Justice” looking most closely.
”You can rule out Ms. Hugh by her stature, brown hair, slightly curly, that’s Ms. Fools, isn’t it? For the time being, we can’t rule out the possibility that Mr. ‘Fool’ pulled someone else, hmmm, the pronunciation and accent are consistent with the Birkeland accent, and the details of the aura and mood color match …… ‘Fool’ Mr. shouldn’t be able to fake an image specifically for a member, right?k There’s no need to hide anything …… “In just a few seconds of ogling, Audrey almost overlapped the blurry figure with the image of Fools within her mind.
Finding another pivot point from something else would make it essentially certain …… She waited with interest to verify her extraordinary abilities.
In the meantime, she didn’t feel the need to reveal her identity to Folth.
It was better to keep it a little secret, well …… see when she would find out! “Justice” Audrey retracted her gaze, holding a light smile as she quietly watched.
At this time, since there were no new Roselle diaries, Klein maneuvered the “world” to speak:
”I would like to know the information about the ‘Demon’ and ‘Guardian’ sequences.”
He was sure that his “Sun” classmate knew the details of sequence 6 “Demon” because the other party mentioned “Demonology” last time, and in order not to reveal that he was investigating a serial murder case, he deliberately added “Warlord”. In order not to reveal that he was investigating the serial killings, he intentionally added the sequence 5 “Guardian” of the “God of War” pathway, also known as the “Giant” pathway, which is the extraordinary Silver City pathway. This path, also known as the “Giant” path, is the mainstream path for extraordinary people in Silver City, and it is impossible for the “Sun” to be unaware of it.
Among them, Sequence 9 “Warrior”, Sequence 8 “Fighter” and Sequence 7 “Weapons Master”, Klein had long since grasped the detailed characteristics from the internal information of the Night Watch, while Sequence 6 “Knight of Dawn” had long since been recognized by the Night Watch, while Sequence 6 “Knight of Dawn” had long since been recognized by the Night Watch. The information of “Knight of Dawn”, he had just learned from Father Utrafsky, so the only one who could be asked, who could pay the price, and who wouldn’t go to waste, was Sequence 5 “Guardian”.
In addition, he did not ask the Sun directly, but issued this commission to everyone, because according to the “setting”, it was impossible for the “world”, which had not joined the Tarot Club for a long time, to know that Silver City held the Giant. City held the “Giant” pathway.
”If it’s just the ‘Demon’ sequence, I know something about it.” Alger, the “Inverted Man” who had a certain status in the Storm Church, interjected.
”Sun” Derek Berg gave him a look, stopped thinking, and straightened his back:
”Both sequences, I’m well aware of.”
”What I want in return is intelligence related to the ‘Fallen Creator’.”
”Whether or not the two pieces of information are equal is to be determined by Mr. ‘Fool’.”
Only then did he remember that he hadn’t asked Mr. Fool’s permission, so he turned his head to the top and respectfully requested.
”Sun” student, this can’t be blamed on me, this is your own request …… Klein’s mouth corners slightly moved, let out a low laugh and said:
”Can.”
And when it comes to the knowledge of the “real Creator”, the ladies and gentlemen here are not as good as me …… He justifiably added a sentence in his heart.
While they were exchanging this matter, “Magician” Forsyth was listening to the side:
”‘Demon’ Sequence is ‘Demon’ Pathway’s? Sequence a few?”
”And which pathway is the ‘Guardian’? Sequence number?”
”How come I’ve never even heard of ……”
”Fallen Creator? The True Creator?”
”Gods, they’re actually exchanging information about the ‘True Creator’!”
”That one is known as the oldest and most powerful existence among the gods.”
”What kind of organization am I joining?”
The World, who had received a positive answer from the Fool, said without hesitation:
”Deal!”
”I’ll apply for individual communication.”
I want to listen to it …… but I have to economize lately, and there are still more than two months to go before the New Year, so bear with me, Audrey! “Justice,” Audrey blinked, fondly withdrawing her eyes from the Sun.
They were instantly blocked from sight, hearing, and psychic intuition by Klein.
The World quickly buried its head and “wrote” what it knew about the “real Creator” on the manifested paper, including the “hanging giant” and the “shadowed giant”. “The Giant Hanging Upside Down” and “The Eye Behind the Curtain of Shadows”, including information that the Aurora members believed that this evil god was the one who created everything in the first place.
Toward the end, Klein adds his own intuitive impressions from touching the Evil God’s children, sensing the aura of the gods, and listening to the voice of the “true Creator”:
”Fallen, twisted, bloody, crazy, evil.”
Immediately after that, Mr. “Fool” gave his judgment:
”The value of this information is slightly higher than that of the ‘Demon’ ‘Guardian’ sequences, but not by much.”
”Thank you, Mr. ‘Fool’.” “Sun” Derek took the parchment with sincerity and read it several times, carefully, from beginning to end.
One of the things that concerned him the most was the fact that the “True Creator” claimed to be the Lord who created everything in the first place!
Twisted, fallen, crazy …… Derek read these words silently, and vaguely seemed to see the black tragedy that has shrouded everyone in Silver City for more than two thousand years.
Has the Lord not abandoned us? Just, k madness …… “Sun” Derek found that he had been able to look at the “Lord of all creation, the all-knowing God” worshipped by Silver City with blasphemous thoughts without resistance.
”It is time for you to answer my question.” “The World” hissed in urgency.
Derek collected his boiling and sad thoughts and said after two seconds of silence:
”Creatures of different races do not produce the same mutations after taking the ‘Demon’ potion, each has certain characteristics, which kind of Demon do you want to know?”
Surprisingly, there was such a difference? Klein was slightly stunned.
He whirled around and realized one thing, and that was that there was a thinking blind spot in his previous idea!
What if, what if the murderer of the serial killings was not a human, but an animal?
An animal that took the corresponding magic potion and mutated into a “demon”!
Step by step, sequence by sequence, it becomes a “demon”!
Although the probability is very low, and the risk of an animal losing control is much higher than that of a human being, there is no way to prevent this kind of thing from happening. …… We have to investigate this point. …… But then, there are more problems! Where did the animal-mutated “demon” get the potion and extraordinary materials? It shouldn’t be possible for it to join the human circle of extraordinary people …… Klein held his silence and manipulated the “world” to say:
”What I want to know is the traits common to all kinds of demons.”
”Sun” Derek said as he recalled and organized his knowledge:
”One of the most feared things about a demon is that if you can do him mortal harm after a short period of time and take action to put it into practice, then he can sense, perceive, and grasp where and from whom the danger is coming from, so that he can target it for strangulation or retaliation.”
”This point in time, ranging from a few minutes to a day, varies from demon to demon with different instincts.”
This ability is a bit scary ah …… but and “clown” intuition premonition is not a category, it seems that can not be used for combat, but to detect the source of danger in advance, timely response, closer to, well, in the last life to read the immortal novels of “I wonder if I can interfere with or even block out this kind of “intuition” in this mysterious space above the gray fog. Will Stuart be a little dangerous …… Klein leaned back in his chair, seemingly uninterested in the topic of the discussion between the Sun and the World.
Seeing no sign of consternation from “The World”, Derek continued:
”They all possess the ability to giganticize their bodies, thus breaking free from their bonds and briefly increasing their strength and speed; their skin has mutated, equivalent to a layer of hard armor, and their blood and flesh can also block items and reduce damage; they are immune to most toxins, and are not afraid of curses and flames up to a certain level; they are gifted with flames and defilement spells; they are cold-blooded, do not panic, do not fear, and possess the ability to use their own magic; they are not afraid to use their own magic; they are not scared of the world, and possess the ability to use the world’s magic. panic, have no fear, possess strong physical combat abilities, and are adept at using a variety of items to inflict damage.”
”Their greatest weakness is that they are prone to losing control, and even if they don’t, they will from time to time display madness that is both cold-blooded and cruel, and are easily controlled by desires such as bloodlust and killing.”
Really strong, worthy of being a Sequence 6 “demon”, could it be that in the twenty-two extraordinary pathways, below the High Sequence, Sequence 6 or Sequence 7 is the threshold for qualitative change, which differs from Sequence to Sequence, thus making them the mid-Sequence demarcation line between ancient and modern times, respectively… …Klein said as he manipulated the World:
”I’m satisfied with your intelligence.”
Without modesty, Derek nodded and turned:
”The ‘Guardians’ rarely take damage, and once they shift into a guarded state and give up their attacks, very few people below the High Sequence can break their defenses, and all types of damage are the same. When they attack, their corresponding defense is lowered quite a bit, but it’s also far stronger than refined full-body armor.”
”Their ‘Morning Sword’, their ‘Storm of Light’, and additional extraordinary abilities allow them to deal damage to any type of monster.”
”They are not mesmerized by illusions, and they can help their companions within a certain range take damage and guard each other.”
……
With “Sun” Derek’s description, Klein couldn’t help but sigh in his heart:
The defense of the “Knight of the Dawn” and the “Guardian” is like a child and an adult compared to the physical strength and power, the “Guardian” is afraid to be able to carry the bullets of the steam rifle! …… In the war of this era, without being fired by large-caliber artillery, he most likely won’t die.
