Mystery: emerging from the wilderness of knowledge

At night, when he returned to his rented house, Renekton lay on the bed in the bedroom and quickly fell asleep through meditation.

In a deep dream, Renekton suddenly woke up.

It was still the Twilight Temple, and Sasriel still looked the same, but Renekton noticed that the shadow under him was much lighter.

It seems that during this time, His digestion of part of the true Creator's will was very effective.

"You want to see me?" Saslier asked directly without too much reservation.

Renekton nodded slightly and said with some doubts in his tone:

"The True Creator has given an oracle to the people of the Aurora Society to look for the Fool's favored ones and believers in Backlund."

“Is there no information shared between you and Him?”

Saslier replied in a calm voice:

"My current state of contact with Him will only make me tainted with His madness."

Renekton nodded slightly and then asked about other topics:

"Are there any high-level characteristics of the Perfection Path that exist in the Land Abandoned by God?"

Saslier was silent for a while, seemingly lost in memories. After a while, he spoke again:

"The mysterious demon at the saint level exists, but I can't be sure about the characteristics of the angel-level master. It may exist somewhere in the form of magical items."

“The True Creator is in a state of madness all the time and doesn’t have that much energy to pay attention to this.”

"I understand, then. How many city-states still have survivors in the land abandoned by God?"

After gently nodding and confirming the existence of the mysterious demon in the land abandoned by the gods, Reike suddenly felt that he had turned the topic to other aspects.

"Including the gathering places around me, there are only seven city-states in total."

Saslier's voice was inevitably filled with helplessness and depression:

"Among them, four city-states are outside my protection: Silver City, Moon City, Valentine City, and Bedan City."

"For their own reasons, these cities have retained enough characteristics and powerful magical items to survive in the darkness for thousands of years. However, this is almost their limit."

"Valentine, Bedan City" Renekton repeated softly. This is a city that has not appeared in the original work.

Amon and Klein also mentioned in the conversation in the God's Abandoned Land that there are no more than ten city-states that have survivors in the God's Abandoned Land. Amon will not cheat in this regard. This is unnecessary.

If you have the chance, it is still necessary to go to the Land Abandoned by God!

"Are you collecting the characteristics of the Perfectionist Path and preparing to find an opportunity to peel off the Sage's characteristics and jump to the Path?"

Sasriel interrupted Renekton's inner thoughts.

Renekton shook his head and said:

"I don't have this plan. If I switch to the path of the perfect person, wouldn't I give that perfect person his head?"

"I just want to cultivate some professional talents and promote the industrial revolution that Russell has not completed!"

"The progress of civilization will make steam more powerful."

Saslier said something admonishing.

Before Renekton could explain, he proposed a new deal:

"If you help me reclaim the power of the sun and storms, I can share the corresponding power with you to promote the industrial revolution."

"Don't be surprised. I was just crazy at the time, but the memory and judgment I should have are still there."

"The biggest obstacle to Russell's promotion of the industrial revolution is that there is no barrier left over from the beginning of energy. While it protects us, it also limits the earth's external development."

"Promoting civilization is what one must do to become the Demon of Knowledge. God, who possesses omniscience, omnipotence and the authority of the Creator, is a better partner than the Lord of Mysteries."

Just relying on those memories of Zhenzao, he was able to analyze the industrial revolution brought about by Russell so thoroughly.

This guy is quite powerful in terms of knowledge, layout and planning. Well, you can see from Adam that he has a somewhat shameful heartbeat.

Renekton frowned and was confused. From his own point of view, the other party's proposal was too tempting.

Unfortunately, Amon's existence is the biggest obstacle to cooperation.

"It takes a long time. You can wait until the situation becomes clear before giving an answer."

Saslier said in a calm tone.

The next morning, Renekton just woke up from bed, and the conversation he had with Sasriel in his dream last night clearly appeared in his mind.

"Huh~ These are still too far away from me. Let's wait until I become a saint or even an angel to think about it."

With a long sigh, Renekton quickly jumped out of bed and put on his clothes.

After a brief wash, he immediately went to the dining room downstairs, rubbed his fingers by the fireplace, and created a red flame through the rubbing spirit, and lit the fireplace.

As the flames in the fireplace burned, the temperature in the house began to gradually rise.

"I'll go find Klein later and ask him to take me to the inventor Leppard. Well, I have to hurry up and collect the magic potion materials for the generalists."

Sitting at the dining table, Renekton thought about what he was going to do today.

It didn't take long for the undead chef to prepare today's breakfast, a simple sandwich, biscuits and hot milk.

After quickly finishing his breakfast, Renekton walked to the house across the street and knocked on the door.

Boom boom boom!

Klein quickly opened the door, with a somewhat surprised expression on his face.

"It's a good thing you knocked on the door today." Klein said half-jokingly, while turning sideways to make way for an aisle.

"I still have the habit of knocking on the door when I walk through the main entrance." Renekton chuckled.

After Klein turned sideways, he saw Dr. Allen in the living room.

Dr. Allen also looked over with curious eyes. When he saw that it was someone he had met at the Kragg Club before, Dr. Allen smiled and said hello.

After returning the gift with a smile, Renekton looked away and then directly explained his purpose:

"I came to you about Leppard. I want to invest in his invention."

Klein nodded slightly, raised his finger and pointed at Dr. Allen beside him and said:

"Okay, but you have to wait a moment, I have another commission."

"No problem, I'm not short of time. Remember to come to me when you're done."

Renekton waved his hand, turned around and left.

Klein was stunned for a moment, and just as he raised his hand to try to persuade him to stay, he asked about Will Auceptin, but Renekton had already walked some distance away, so he had no choice but to give up.

Back in the living room, Dr. Allen asked very curiously:

"Sherlock, are you still involved in investment? What kind of project is it? A great detective like you can take a fancy to it and invest in it."

"A new type of transportation tool." Klein responded with a smile.

"I'm going to change clothes first, and then we can set off."

After saying that, Klein went up to the second floor, found a thick coat and put it on. He also went above the gray fog to do a divination. He concluded that the risk of this commission was almost non-existent, and he was completely relieved.

A small and delicate paper man fluttered in the cold wind, and finally fell onto a moving carriage.

The moment the little paper man fell, he seemed to have come alive, firmly fixing himself on the roof of the carriage.

Inside the carriage, Klein raised his head and glanced at the roof of the carriage in confusion. He found nothing and looked away again.

The carriage drove all the way to the West District of Backlund, the outskirts of Green Cemetery.

Klein and Dr. Allen got off the carriage and wandered around in the nearby woods as if looking for something.

The small paper figures were blown by the wind, floating between trees one after another.

"There, there!" Dr. Allen suddenly stopped and pointed to a birch tree with a strip of bark around its waist about ten meters ahead.

After getting closer, Dr. Allen stared at the birch tree closely and said:

"It's exactly like in my dream."

Klein smiled slightly warily: "But there is no Will Auceptin here."

Doctor Allen frowned and looked for a while, then suddenly pointed to the root of the tree and said:

"Will Asceptin was sitting right here with his hand pointing down at the dirt!"

"You want to dig it up?" Klein stood aside and looked down at the area with almost no dead grass, then looked up at Dr. Allen's serious, frowning expression.

Dr. Allen nodded:

"We've already found this place. It's important to confirm what's there."

After a while, Dr. Allen used money in exchange for three shovels and the help of a tombkeeper.

The three began to try to dig. Without digging too deep, they revealed what was underneath the soil. It was the highly decomposed body of a child!

when! The shovel in Dr. Allen's hand fell, and he pointed at the legs of the corpse. He muttered for a long time before speaking in a high-pitched voice:

"Will Asceptin! He's Will Asceptin!"

Will Asceptin is dead? Moreover, it seems that he has been dead for a while. Could this be false?

Klein looked at the child's body on the ground in surprise, with many thoughts popping up in his mind.

Klein quickly came to his senses and said to the tombkeeper and Dr. Allen, who were almost stunned by fright:

"Call the police!"

It didn't take long for the sheriff to arrive and take both Klein and Dr. Allen to a nearby police station.

After everyone left, a small paper man fell lightly from a tree. After a while, Renekton's figure appeared.

This figure is just an illusion. In essence, it is still the little paper man.

Renekton looked at the child's body revealed in the dug soil in front of him. The body was highly decomposed, and his skin and flesh seemed to be melting. There were many bugs crawling in and out of the body.

"You didn't even remove the body. Is it really okay to put it in front of me so carelessly?"

Renekton whispered a few words to himself.

Except for the wind blowing from time to time, there was no response.

After staying for a while, Renekton noticed that someone was coming this way, and then turned around and left.

Probably tomorrow, maybe even tonight, Will will move the body.
