Sequence 0, "Red Priest"... Which pathway's Sequence 0 is this?
I've learned another true name of a Sequence 0... Of course, assuming the evil spirit isn't lying...
It said the holder of the "Red Priest" card, due to some kind of attraction, found the underground ruins of the Tudor family and died in that room... This should be the law of convergence of extraordinary characteristics within the same pathway, right? No, Emperor Roselle once mentioned that after advancing to a high sequence, holding the corresponding "Card of Blasphemy" allows one to subtly sense the extraordinary materials needed for the next step... In other words, inside the room that seals the evil spirit, there are demigod-level characteristics of the "Red Priest" pathway... Perhaps the evil spirit, when alive, was a demigod of this pathway, or even stronger...
Hmm... The subtle sensing provided by the "Card of Blasphemy" is probably based on the law of convergence...
Klein thought of many things in an instant. He subconsciously turned his head to look at Sharon, to see her reaction, thereby judging whether she knew about the "Card of Blasphemy" and understood the meaning of Sequence 0.
However, on Sharon's pale, almost transparent face, there was no change in expression, as if the evil spirit had only displayed an ordinary tarot card.
But this actually explained some things: every extraordinary person, when hearing about Sequence 0 for the first time, always subconsciously thinks about what it means... Perhaps only an extraordinary from the "Spectator" pathway could notice Ms. Sharon's subtle body language... Klein sighed inwardly.
Seeing both of them silent, the evil spirit gave Klein a deep look and then slowly made the projection of the "Card of Blasphemy" in its hand disappear.
It once again looked at Sharon with bloodshot eyes and said with a hoarse laugh:
"If you don't want to become a demigod of the Mutated pathway, then I can provide the potion formula for Sequence 4 of the Abyss pathway. Temperance of desire and extravagant evil have always been complementary, haven't they?"
Sharon ignored the evil spirit's question and slowly turned her head to look at Klein, indicating that he should respond.
From the evil spirit's words, the Mutated pathway and the Abyss pathway are similar pathways that can be interchanged at high sequences... The external manifestations of the Rose School and the Blood Worship Sect are indeed quite similar... Klein thought for two seconds, then looked at "Rafter Pound" whose face was covered in blood and said:
"Then how should we remove your seal?"
The evil spirit laughed and said:
"Simple: find the direct descendants of the Solon, Einhorn, and Medici families, obtain 10 milliliters of blood from each. It can be more, not less.
"Then mix them with holy water and sprinkle it into the room where I am.
"That way, the seal will be removed."
Simple and strange method, even within the field of mysticism, it's not common... Why must it be direct descendants of the Solon, Einhorn, and Medici families? I've never heard of the last one. Solon is the former royal family of Intis, Einhorn is the imperial family of the Feynapotter Empire, and their commonality is that both once served the Trunsoest Empire, are Fourth Epoch Angel families, and are the ultimate winners, but the Augustus family of Loen and the Castiya family of Feynapotter also fit these conditions... Ah, right, the Solon and Einhorn families also share another commonality: they both control the "Hunter" pathway!
Is this the reason for the selection? Hmm... combined with the earlier situation, does "Hunter" pathway equal "Red Priest" pathway?
Klein harbored this guess and didn't hide his confusion as he spoke:
"I know of the Solon and Einhorn families, but I've never heard of the Medici family."
"That's normal. They always like to hide in the shadows. They are tainted angels. They established an extremely secret organization." The evil spirit laughed contemptuously. "That organization is called the Redemption Rose."
This name sounds familiar... Oh, right, inside the newly discovered abandoned temple of the "True Creator" in the Silver City, similar text was written in the corner of a mural, and they suspected it was the name of the city or the temple builder... Now it seems this signifies an extremely secret organization established by tainted angels... Do they believe in the "True Creator"? What relationship does it have with the Aurora Order?" Klein pondered for a moment and said:
"Is it related to the "True Creator"?"
The evil spirit was silent for two seconds and then asked back deeply:
"You know of the Redemption Rose?"
"I've heard it by chance." Klein said this absolute truth.
The evil spirit thought for a moment and then suddenly smiled and said:
"Your secrets are more than I imagined."
Can we not discuss this matter? Klein controlled himself from looking at Sharon's reaction, appearing calm and open on the surface.
The evil spirit's eyes swept over both their faces and laughed:
"The Redemption Rose is closely related to the birth of the True Creator. Some beings you absolutely cannot imagine were once members of the Redemption Rose, but later left this organization.
"As long as you can find an organization that believes in the True Creator and trace it all the way, you will always come into contact with the Redemption Rose."
Sounds a bit like the "Secret Order of the Twilight Hermit", like a positive and negative side... Klein intuitively guessed.
Seeing that the evil spirit had no intention of introducing the Redemption Rose in depth, he smiled and said:
"Do you think with our strength we can accomplish such a thing?"
The evil spirit was silent for a few seconds and said:
"Perhaps you can go to Benshi Town and try your luck."
"Benshi Town? Where is it?" Klein pressed on, but the evil spirit would not reveal any more.
Facing this situation, Klein had to change the question:
"During the Fourth Epoch, were the 'Black Emperor', 'Blood Emperor', and 'Night Emperor' fighting for the position of Sequence 0?"
The evil spirit was taken aback upon hearing this, then smiled:
"It was, then it wasn't. After Alista Tudor went mad, it wasn't."
"Is Alista Tudor the 'Blood Emperor'?" Klein sought confirmation.
The evil spirit nodded:
"Right, the 'Blood Emperor' is one and only one, that is the madman Alista Tudor. Hehe, the descendants of the Tudor family have all inherited that crazy bloodline. Usually cunning, treacherous, careful, and cautious, but at critical moments they easily get hot-headed and disregard any consequences." The evil spirit pointed at Rafter Pound's face. "He is an example. However, after this lesson, he will definitely be normal for a long time... I don't know if he is the last Tudor. Alista left behind many good things that require the bloodline of descendants to open. You'd better not kill him now."
The evil spirit paused and laughed quietly:
"Alright, after you help me remove the seal, I will tell you about the stories I have experienced. No, to describe it more accurately, the history I have experienced."
With these words, Rafter Pound's eyes suddenly lost focus.
