Mystery: Start with the Reader

Looking at the two new black spots that appeared in "Unknown Land", Abner couldn't help but fell into deep thought:

This "black spot" is not much different in nature from the "dark red stars" above the gray fog. They can both be used for "communication" and "connection", but the functions are slightly different...

For example, I can't pull the person corresponding to the "black spot" into the "Unknown Land" like Klein, but I can do a lot of things that Klein can't do...

With this thought in mind, Abner separated a "wisdom eye" and entered the "pure white eye", and came into contact with the spots of "parasite" Flora Jacob.

"Praise you! Praise you! You are one and ten thousand, unknown and omniscient, moment and eternity!"

Soon, the ultimate praise reached Abner's ears... Obviously, Flora Jacob, whose heart was filled with the name "Liu Bo", had become his fanatical believer...

The kind of fanatical believer who surrenders his body and mind and is willing to give everything he has at any time!

"Her state... to be honest, it's very similar to the 'Magic Mirror' and the two former popes of the 'Eternal Sun Church' who occupied the identity of Cero Delion!

"They all 'revered' 'me' as fervently as Flora now...

"The only difference is that the two former popes worshiped indirectly. They were more like the fanatical believers of the illusory sun behind the 'Pure White Eyes' that was polluted by the 'unknown'... So, their The mark is not a black spot...it should be inside the 'sun'.

"Now it seems that this 'pollution' will definitely not lose to the 'Tianzun', at least it is at the level of the old days... It's really scary!

"And the real name of the source of this 'pollution' is actually 'Liu Bo'!

"Assuming that's really 'me' too...

"Just thinking about it makes me shudder... No wonder Lilith and the goddess don't want me to come into contact with the truth of the 'unknown land' now!

"But, when did I become so scary?!"

Abner laughed at himself and turned his attention to the darker spot.

That symbolizes the body of the man in black who blew himself up just after spreading the knowledge of "Liu Bo".

Even if he made the cut in time and even refrained from recycling the extraordinary characteristic of Sequence 3 "Deception Mentor", he was still marked by the "Unknown Land".

"It's just that this kind of very shallow spot is not as convenient as Flora's. I can at most use it to determine his location, or peek into his actions and part of his memory...

"Of course, if I can go further into the 'unknown' and master the space behind the 'Pure White Eye', I may be able to use the mark to 'contaminate' him... But it's obviously not possible yet.

"Haha, but this also shows that the man in black is not an angel!

"After all, with such a simple mark, if it has the status of an angel, it should be easy to unilaterally cut off the connection.

"It's the same as what angels do when they understand the knowledge of outer gods.

"From this point of view, even if Amon really fell into the plan of the man in black, as long as he did not choose to let his characteristics or memories return to his original body, he would at most know the name of 'Liu Bo' and be marked lightly.

"Unless he can't help but decipher it and gain a deeper understanding of the 'Unknown Land' and Liu Bo's related knowledge, the problem won't be too big for now...

"Then... here comes the question, what about Lilith, Goddess, Vera, Yaluolan and Cohinam who know Liu Bo better? What about the two and five dragons? How can they resist the pollution of 'me' of?

"It's hard to say what a goddess is... but Lilith, Vera, Yaluo Lan and Goshinam are obviously close to me, at least my former self, and they even have descendants...

"Even if it is a true god, it is impossible to completely block the pollution if he is so close to the 'old days'!

"Although because of 'my' permission, they may not only be free from the harm of pollution, but also use the power of the 'unknown land' to balance other pollution they encounter..."

"But how could they trust me so much?

"After all, this is tantamount to putting life and death in my hands!

“Once ‘I’ doesn’t allow it, how will they deal with themselves?

"Well, the goddess and Lilith must have their own back-ups. The 'Brother's Nest' and the 'River of Eternal Darkness' may have been controlled by them...

"Vera, with her 'mist of uncertainty', might be able to barely protect herself.

"But I'm afraid Yaluolan and Goshinam have no choice... That's why Yaluolan took the initiative to get closer to me, and even put her clone into the 'Unknown Land', which deepened the connection between her and me. Bet I will always 'allow' her to remain uncontaminated? Emotional maintenance?

"Now that I think about it, the reason why Yaluo Lan and Cohinam were split into two may be to cut off the connection with me... But it doesn't seem to be successful... That's why Cochinam also fell. To my side.

“Is this the subtle influence of ‘Unknown Land’?

"Well, I think I understand... The goddess, Lilith, Vera, Yaluolan, and Cochinam all bet on me now, and the bet is 'emotion'...

"After all, they can't predict the character of the 'unknown' me, and they don't know whether that 'I' will contaminate them through contact and turn them into crazy believers who have lost their body and mind like Flora.

"This is the same as if people in the Tarot Society had a choice, they would definitely choose Klein to be the 'Lord of Mysteries' instead of the 'Heavenly Lord'.

"As for the 'Two Five Dragons', He put the illusory 'Omniscient Eye' into the 'Unknown'. In a sense, this is also a bet!

"It's just that His thoughts are probably more complicated... Haha, I guess He bet on two sides, the real me, and the 'unknown' depth of me... No matter which one, He invested.

“But overall, He definitely hopes that the real me will have the upper hand. After all, in His opinion, I am definitely better at speaking.

"Okay, I have initially thought through these issues...

"But what happened to the 'pure white angel' in the 'Unknown Land'? Where did that illusory 'sun' come from?

"Is it possible that the 'Eternal Fierce Sun' also placed a bet on the 'unknown' me?

"But I always feel like something is wrong..."

Abner thought hard for a while, but had no clue. Finally, he decided to put it aside for the time being. Instead, he reached out and took the extraordinary characteristic of "Teacher of Deception" left by the clone of the man in black.

It was miraculously combined with the exploded "vocal cord" of the man in black, forming a sealed object that constantly sang praises to one of the seven gods.

But praising the "Seven Gods" is just superficial. As long as you really listen carefully, you will find that what you are hearing is actually an aria praising "Liu Bo".

A sealed object that combines "deception" and fanatical belief in "Liu Bo"? This thing is only safe if I hold it, right?

Well, you can give it to Flora, since her fanaticism has reached its extreme level anyway, so there’s no harm in hearing more...

Abner complained, and then used this characteristic as a medium to start "backtracking".

It is worth mentioning that after becoming a "demigod", the ability to "look back" is not limited to fixed scenes in the past, but also goes deep into the field of destiny, and can "look back" on his past "fate trajectory"!

As the ability was activated, the past scene of the clone of the man in black soon appeared in front of Abner:

The avatar of this "deceptive mentor" has a fixed identity and name, Mared, dean of the School of Philosophy at Backlund University, a pragmatist philosopher.

Of course, he also has a hidden identity - the vice president of the "Hermits of Destiny".

After he discovered that Fanny, the illegitimate descendant of Emperor Russell's eldest son Charles, had a close relationship with Abner, he focused on this "heroic detective" who was famous in Backlund. After all, in the "prophecy" left by the emperor, There is a hint that he may return after the birth of a child descended from the "lawyer" path.

And Fanny is the only "lawyer" among the descendants of the emperor for more than a hundred years.

Therefore, during a "Gathering of Destiny Hermits", after he got clues about the "stealer" demigod of the Jacob family, he took the initiative to become Emma's teacher, and used the "contract" as an excuse to help her restrict the Jacob family. The behavior of Flora, the "parasite" of each family.

——After all, Emma is both Fanny’s friend and Abner’s friend.

However, Flora never suspected anything because she had been possessed by a rat and had her intelligence impaired.

Next, the clone of the man in black took advantage of Emma's schooling to observe and spy in secret, while constantly eroding Flora's mind, and arranged the secret technique "Rhein-Solomon's Crow Lasso" on the island of her mind. .

With the failure of the Emperor's resurrection plan, his focus gradually shifted to the latter.

Therefore, through his ability, he subtly deflected part of Emma's temperament, making her originally suppressed "middling" and "rebellious" more and more obvious.

Such a character, as the sequence improves, will attract Amon sooner or later, and he will be able to use his "trap within a trap" to teach Amon an unforgettable lesson.

But it is a pity that he failed to attract Amon, but he provoked Abner... His so-called "trap within a trap", "game within a game", and the final trump card "Liu Bo" were naturally not there. Can work.

That's it... Abner nodded thoughtfully and had a general understanding of the experience of the clone of the man in black and the general situation of the subordinates he developed.

In the scene he saw, apart from the value of his property, the only thing that Abner cared about was a woman he had met.

The lady had red hair and black eyes, with a gorgeous face and deep features, but her face was somewhat oriental. Her appearance was somewhat similar to Margaret, the courtesan whom Abner met when he accompanied Elaine to a dance in Tosk.

According to the news later sent by Cero, that Ms. Margaret is the 12 of Clubs of the "Men in Black" and the "Red Saint" of the "Witch Sect"!

The reason why Abner pays special attention to her is because of the name Madere, the clone of the Man in Black, called her——

Margaret Constantine!
