Volume 7: The Inverted Man Chapter 57: Great Plans for Development
After listening to the wishes of the residents of Silver City, a thought instantly surfaced in Klein’s mind:
”How come it’s all related to food ……”
”Inverted Hanging Man” Alger thought for a moment and said to “Sun” Derek:
”You can absolutely let people with this kind of idea go to Bayam and join the trade union, and through them you can look for suitable teachers, or you can directly invite people with this kind of specialization to teach in New Silver City and give them generous compensation.
”Of course, the prerequisite is that you must get the residents to master the common language of the Rothschild Archipelago as soon as possible, and on top of that, Ruun, Gufthak, and Duttan can be put on the agenda as well.”
When the “Inverted Man” finished speaking, the “Hidden One” Gadelia also gave her own advice:
”In addition to organizing a mercenary team, you can also try applying for public positions in the major cities of the Rothschild Archipelago to handle transcendent events.”
Although the Rothschild Islands government and the Neptune Church had obtained a number of extraordinary characteristics and corresponding magic potion formulas from Silver City and Moon City, it was not possible to cultivate enough extraordinarys in a short period of time – Sequence 9 was relatively fine, and those who were mentally, spiritually, and physically sound were selected to take the magic potion. Sequence 9 was relatively okay, picking people who were mentally, spiritually and physically okay to take the magic potion, the probability of encountering loss of control and insanity was actually very small, and further up, the play might not be successful, and the play also needed time.
In this case, as long as the Silver City residents could become part of the official forces, they shouldn’t have to worry about losing their jobs afterwards.
Of course, the Rothschild Islands government will certainly control the number of entrants, Silver City can not completely solve the employment problem through this route.
Kline agreed with Ms. Hermit’s suggestion, and thought it was necessary to give an oracle to Daniz, so that the government of the Rothschild Islands and the “Church of Poseidon” to increase the number of official Extraordinary People within a certain range.
This is not to help the residents of Silver City and some of the non-monstrous people in Moon City to find jobs, but to cope with the approaching doomsday, the deepening of foreign god’s encroachment, the frequency of transcendent events gradually become more and more necessary.
At this moment, “Hermit” Gadelia glanced at “Justice” lady and continued to say to “Sun” Derek:
”You should now have a large amount of liquidity, you can try to invest in the mines, spice estates, plantations in the Rothschild Islands, to buy fertile land and rich forests, they are now cheap, well, although the Storm Church can still influence the islands, although the new government promises to protect the foreigners in the local industry, but there are still a large number of Ruins, Forsak, Intisians lack of confidence, but there are still a large number of Ruins, Forsak, Intisians lack of confidence, but there are still a large number of Ruins, Forsak, Intisians lack of confidence. people, and Intis lack confidence and want to sell their estates and return home as soon as possible.”
That divine messenger called Daniz had recently bought a spice estate …… Derek thought back to what he had heard earlier and was suddenly struck by a moment of clarity.
”Hidden One” Gadelia’s suggestion inspired the others, and “Justice” Audrey added instantly:
”When you guys go to negotiate, it’s best to hire a few professional lawyers, or else you’ll easily be cheated, well, if you think it’s necessary, you can bring the city’s ‘psychoanalysts’ with you as well.
”Also, you have a medium-sized harbor at your back, so you can develop your economy accordingly ……
”In response to the fact that both the government of the Rothschild Archipelago and the official Extraordinary of the ‘Neptune’ Church lack sufficient common sense, you can offer a fee-based course for outsiders at the General Knowledge School in New Silver City… umm, remove the part of the knowledge that’s prone to clash with the Church of the Orthodox God… …
”The railroad connecting New Silver City to the other cities must be built as soon as possible ……”
”Sun,” Derek said as he froze at the sound of his voice and raised his hand:
”Sorry, I need to write down what I just said first.”
Forgetting that he had no grounding in economics …… Audrey “Justice” gave a small moment of introspection, closed her mouth, and smiled as she signaled for the little Sun to ask the Mr. “Fool” for help.
When Derek materialized a pen and paper, wrote down the previous suggestions, “Justice” Audrey, “Moon” Emlyn, “Star” Leonard and other members of the Tarot Club, you a word and I said They gave their own ideas, and refuted each other’s proposals that were not mature enough to be practical.
Such a warm scene lasted for nearly two quarters of an hour before it ended, “Sun” Derek looked at the stack of paper in front of him which was not too thick but not too thin either, and could not contain his smile.
He seemed to have seen a bright future for Silver City.
Sitting at the top of the mottled table, “Fool” Klein, however, inexplicably sighing, the mood is much heavier:
If we don’t think about the end of the world in a decade or so, the bright future of Silver City in the discussion just now is indeed comforting.
However, the arrival of the end of the world will not be shifted by the will of mankind, the saints and angels also can not.
Retracting his gaze from the paper in front of him, Derek added after a moment of deliberation:
”We have built a temple and church belonging to Mr. ‘Fool’ and would like to preach to the cities of the archipelago, what does this entail?”
”The Inverted Man,” Alger said with a slight frown:
”Have you compiled the Canon yet? Have you designed the flow of the Mass and the details of the prayers?”
”Uh-huh.” “Sun,” Derek said with a heavy nod.
It was all based on the miracles shown by Mr. Fool and Derek’s own knowledge, combined with the religious texts left behind by the previous Creator, and Silver City had also prayed to the Fool and explained this matter, and K’s attitude was one of tacit approval.
”Has the internal system of the church been constructed?” Alger continued to ask.
Derek subconsciously glanced at Mr. “Fool” who was shrouded in layers of gray and white mist, and turned back:
”Currently, it’s modeled after the internal systems of other churches, with the chief of our ‘Council of Six’ doubling as the Archbishop and appointing a group of residents with missionary zeal as bishops and priests.”
As for the church’s internal body that dealt with transcendent events, Silver City didn’t have one, as most of them were Extraordinary and were usually organized accordingly.
Seeing that Mr. “Fool” didn’t object or agree, “Inverted Man” Alger thoughtfully controlled his desire to teach and nodded slightly:
”We can try that first.”
He added after a pause:
”But be careful of two things, first, don’t preach the bad of other churches, lest you cause conflict, and second, respect the current Divine Messenger, who is the divine surrogate in the absence of Mr. ‘Fool’ appointing a head of the church.”
Three, don’t preach in a harassing manner …… And, I’m deeply skeptical of the eloquence of those bishop-priests in Silver City, I’ll have to have Danez get a professional to do the training …… Quietly beside the “Fools “Klein mumbled a couple of words in his mind.
He did not comment on the canon written by Silver City because it was a bit embarrassing, but if he objected to some of the descriptions, it would be detrimental to the image of the “Fool”.
Thinking about this, Klein couldn’t help but make a few more comments:
”Maybe one day, Will Onsettin will see the canon of the Church of the Fool and blurt out in surprise: when did I become an angel under the seat of the Fool?
”Then Leonard’s old grandpa, the waking Mr. Aztec, and the struggling-to-recover Miss Messenger will follow with, What, me too?”
After exchanging Silver City and Moon City related matters, “The Hidden One” Gadelia looked around the circle not too expectantly and said:
”Do any of you have the extraordinary traits of the ‘Peeping Mystic’ Pathway Sequence 3?”
It had been a long time since she had finished digesting the “Occultist” potion, but she had only gotten the “Master of Prophecy” potion formula from the Moss Ascetic Order, and she was still far, far away from getting the Extraordinary Characteristics, or the main ingredient.
–Although she was a member of the ten pillars of the Moss Ascetic Order, the higher up the sequence path, the more precious the corresponding resources must be, and even such an ancient organization could not be squandered arbitrarily, moreover, Gadelia originated from the “Dawn”, and was subjected to the “Hidden Sage”. Furthermore, because of her origins in the “Dawn” and her lesser influence from the “Hidden Sage”, she was not so trusted within the Moss Ascetic Order.
For Gadelia, who used the blood of the “Serpent of Destiny” to become an “Occultist” and finished digesting the magic potion early, Sequence 3 should be a relatively easy pass, but she was stuck by the materials, and she might not be able to have any hope in a few years, or even a dozen years.
Therefore, she had to seek help at the Tarot.
”Sun,” Derek shook his head slowly as he thought back to those Demigod traits that Silver City possessed.
Just then, “World” Germaine Sparrow hissed and laughed:
”I suggest you ask the ‘Queen of Mysteries’ directly.”
Bernadette had become a Sequence 2 Angel, and if there was any excess “Master of Prophecy” extraordinary properties in her body, she could try to separate them.
Of course, Klein couldn’t be sure that the “Sage” magic potion that the “Queen of Mysteries” had taken contained the Sequence 3 and Sequence 4 of the predecessor.
Ask the Queen? “The Hidden One” Gadelia tasted something from “The World” Germaine Sparrow’s answer and suspected that something had happened to the Queen.
”Good.” She controlled her urge to pursue the question.
Klein continued to manipulate the “world” and addressed Ms. Hermit:
”I have a long-term commission: help me gather information on all aspects of the ‘Hidden Sage’s’ sudden coming to life.
”The corresponding remuneration you can mention now, or wait until the need arises in the future.”
Klein was always a bit puzzled by this matter, although it could indeed be described as a sudden activation of “uniqueness”, but what should have been activated should have been activated long ago.
”The Hidden One,” Gadelia said after a moment’s thought:
”No problem.”
After exchanging a few more words, the Tarot Gathering came to an end, and the members returned to the real world.
”Inside the captain’s cabin of the Future, Gadelia pushed up the heavy glasses on the bridge of her nose and thought about how to write her letter to the Queen.
In the process, she wandered over to the window and saw Frank Lee selling the crew his non-alcoholic Volcano Beer, brewed from undersea microbes.
What a move …… Gadelia had just sighed when she suddenly frowned.
”At the tarot meeting just now, Mr. ‘Fool’ said that the ‘Plowman’ and the ‘Moon’ are two of the more special pathways, coming from the stars and susceptible to contamination I don’t know if it’s true or not, but it’s a divine revelation.
”Frank was an extraordinary person in the ‘plowman’ path ……
”And, he once complained about the Earth Church’s failure to understand the true will of Mother Mercy ……” Gadelia’s eyes, shielded by thick lenses, narrowed slightly at once.
