When walking into the shuttle station, the apprentice was distraught. The mentor personally asked him about his way through the ring, but he didn't want to go through the star gap again.

As a result, the next second, Joey appeared in front of him like a ghost.

"On your own?" he asked.

Uriel almost confessed to leniency because of his guilty conscience. But the messenger did not have a scroll of oaths, and after thinking about it, he felt it was unnecessary: ​​"Mr. Edshaynes would be happy for York to stay a few more days."

"Perhaps he would be more pleased to see you. Haynes has only a few days to live."

This sounds scary, but Uriel knew that the "days" the messenger said were basically equivalent to "years". Druid doesn't have to worry about work. Apart from playing with flowers and plants every day, he just drinks tea in the yard. He himself still enjoys his time after retirement.

"The Second Master of Truth from the Silent School will arrive at the tower soon." The apprentice told the truth, "Master Prophet thinks it is safer for me not to stay in Chloe."

When it comes to Bernard Sterling, the messenger always looks ugly. After the dream journey, Uriel already knew the reason. If the other person was not a saint now, Joey would not tolerate his existence for a second... But having said that, Sterling's achievements are not only due to talent and character, but he has climbed to where he is today by any means.

Few of his contemporaries were so lucky. Needless to say, Joey, McAdam's whereabouts after the Dawn War are unknown, the "victor" Veronka comes to the end of his life in victory and glory, and the order establishes alliances and then falls apart. The legend of the Silver Song Knights is still spreading across the land, and the people who have been protected by them...

The ancestor of the "Witch of Destiny", Emperor Elberhorsham of the Aurenia Empire, was murdered by his son and died at his daughter's wedding. And the Blue Saint Parsul, who was defeated and exiled, escaped from prison and eventually died in the secret realm of the ice sea because of a dream.

Chuyuan is no exception. The "Twilight Veil" tried to avoid the war, but mistakenly opened the door to hell. President Nadia Astrid's Bible not only failed to save her compatriots, but instead became the source of their persecution. Even Alanvor was completely destroyed, and the elves migrated to the other side of the continent and established a new kingdom, calling themselves Faftanna. The ancient moon city sank into the earth, and was eventually taken back by the Broken Moon, becoming pure magic.

Only the tower is still a tower, and the prophet is still a prophet. For three thousand years, the Destiny Assembly has fulfilled its duties as always.

"Second Truth" Bernard Sterling. He rose to great heights and became one of the most influential and influential figures in the mysterious field. You have to admit that although his behavior is not pleasing and his pursuit is very extreme, Sterling's existence has undoubtedly played a positive role in the order. Without any saint, the evil dragon's invasion may be successful. . Knox has changed greatly since the days of the First People, but the past will not disappear. At least Joey remembers it clearly.

Will others forget? Uriel couldn't tell. He didn't know how the envoy escaped from the secret realm of the ice sea, how he entered the tower, how he entered the Ministry of Foreign Affairs step by step, and became the leader of the Destiny Assembly... These mysteries followed the White Envoy like a shadow, and people knew very little about him. Sauron of the Ring once mentioned that someone recommended Joey to the tower, so Uriel tried to find out about him.

Jerome Oskelman, the gatekeeper, I haven't seen him in a long time. He is a member of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the tower's oldest resident. Intuitively speaking, this person’s qualifications are comparable to the Silver Cross

Uriel was startled. "Same as Mr. Oswide?"

That's why he knows about old things. But if your dream is true, then Sidney Oswide and Jeremiah's combined age cannot catch up with... well, you know. This just assumes the Ring is vaguely past. But it seemed unsure, so it had no choice but to try to convince itself. The dream can't be real. The "gatekeeper" recommended Bai Zhizhi and let him come to the tower.

"Why is it impossible?" Looking at time, Joey's dream experience could have happened before he entered the tower. The Ring mentioned that when the messenger entered the tower, he was given the location of the Fate Gathering, that is to say, the Sky Realm. Uriel thought this made sense.

You don't understand mysterious creatures other than humans, is the Ring mocking. Then it gave the answer: The period of the ancestors was a thousand years ago. Boy, the mysterious creatures could not live that long... The prophet and the second truth are special cases. They transcended the sky realm and their achievements were comparable to those of the gods.

My master was simply dragged into a dream by a damned relic of God, a dream that united many Bible holders and those who had come into contact with the Confessions from ancient times to the present. People will play a certain role and participate in a certain story in their dreams, but Uriel, the truly meaningful things happen in reality.

"But the ancestors..."

Not to mention others, the demon lord Black Knight has a Bible in his hand. During the White Night War, Mercury Lord Rameta used it to seduce the school wizard Lindpunabag.

The Ring throws out evidence: Who knows when he died? Eight achievements are from the period of the Ancestors. The passing of life means that the fire is extinguished, and the fire of the undead is a newborn baby conceived by the body. If they want to return to the level of their lives, they have to go through the path of death all over again... This process takes a long time, much longer than that of living people. many! But the dead don't care about time... In short, the Black Knight is now at the level of the Sky Realm. If we push back the time, I'm afraid he will die before the Battle of Dawn. Look, the background of the dream comes from this

The apprentice made no further objection. Sauron's deduction made sense, but he knew more information, but he couldn't explain the source of the information. At any rate, he thought, Sauron was not an astrologer, and neither was his owner. They do not know the absolute connection between dreams and anchors.

Uriel remembered Joey's anchor, the Silver Song Knight badge that followed him into reality. The adventurer Balthazar, who was sponsored by the Gem Guild, inspected the badge with his own eyes and concluded that it came from the Templar Knights, the Silversong Knights of the Mercury Templar. The Mercury Templar has long since become history and is the predecessor of the Church of Gaia and the School of Silence. In today's mysterious realm, even the best knights can no longer obtain the title of Knight Templar.

Moreover, the evidence is not unique. The Black Knight's anchor is an ash tree. When he and Hitarian Ringot were deep in the dream, pursued by the Cavalry, the Black Knight used the Anchor to wake her up. Later, the apprentice remembered this and used the connection between the Bible and the joint dream to trap the undead knight in the dream. The Dream Weaver Lord Mabel helped adjust the dream process so that time in Mortus continued to extend. The local ash trees had long been destroyed when the free men attacked the city. They escaped from this.

Whether Joey or the Black Knight, their anchors can undoubtedly awaken their consciousness. Is there any more powerful evidence than this? Uriel himself can wake up when he sees the messenger. Joint dreams must also follow logic. There is a "dream ocean theory" spread in the mysterious field... After all, if what you see in dreams are all illusions, then why is Joey's anchor point the Silver Song Knight badge? Mr. Ring can't explain it either.

But now, I have a chance to find out the truth, Uriel thought. Do I really need to ask about the exit? Is it really necessary to bring up the past, to mention Parsur, for an answer? Rather than treating his mentor like this, he would rather restrain his curiosity. It's enough to talk about "second truths."

Joey had no way of knowing what he was thinking. "I attended the rally," the messenger said. Naturally, it was impossible for the prophet to conceal his plan from the White Envoy.

The apprentice came back to his senses and said, "That's it." He touched his pockets and felt that there was nowhere to put his hands and feet. "The mysterious realm is about to hold the second demon hunting campaign. Personally, this is not an honor."

"You told the prophet that?"

"No. The Prophet seems to know everything." Uriel was frightened by him countless times. "I think he understood my feelings and took the initiative to drive me away."

"Astrologers like to be smart."

The apprentice is almost sweating: "The Glitter Pool is about to return to Knox, and the Destiny Assembly must be busy. I think the Prophet will only appear occasionally if he takes the time to pay attention to me."

"Leaving the tower, the wizards of the school will not give up."

"Indeed. But no matter what, they are not saints after all. I think I can handle it."

"you think?"

"I can prove it to you." Uriel had a premonition of something bad. If the envoy really disagrees with him leaving, there may be many ways...

"In addition to wizards, there are also demon hunters. They are about to get wind of it and form a legion to defeat the association in the mysterious realm." The envoy listed, "After the conflict, neither side cares about involving others. There are nightingales inquiring about your information, and there are even more people who covet yours. God’s relic.”

"These are all minor problems." The apprentice has noticed the difference between the orthodox mysteries of the Seven Pillars and the adventurers. As for the Scroll of Oath, if someone could steal it, he doubted that the other party would be unlucky before him. In the eyes of the Black Knight, at least I still have the value of becoming a nightingale, and the thief may not have a chance. "I'm not Roma."

The messenger stared at him suspiciously.

"It's better to worry about your own business." Uriel couldn't stand the look in his eyes. "What kind of enemies will we encounter in the mysterious realm? Lametta? Oh, she is not a threat. The other six demon lords? They correspond to the seven mysterious fulcrums, right? Nightingale is hard to guard against. And within the order, the tower is facing The challenge of the Silent School. Is there such a thing?" The alliance is simple to say, but if it can be easily realized, there is a 80% chance that the St. Mirend Alliance will not collapse. "The Lord Prophet hopes to unite with other mysterious fulcrums, but I'm afraid he will be hindered."

"Don't you understand?"

"What?"

"The secret society has its own king. The War of Saints will start again." The messenger's tone seemed to be saying that there would be a light rain in a while. "As for the law wizards of the Silent School? To be honest, they are not an obstacle." He simply did not consider other people. Keep the mysterious fulcrum in mind.

"Wizards have special means." Uriel advised, "There are also demon associations. They are pervasive and their destructive power is astonishing. From the White Night War to the Reformation of the Church in Antipodes, and even Blumnot! There are shadows of the Nameless Ones everywhere. . Maybe you have to be wary of your own people."

"In the tower?" the messenger asked, "under the astrologer's nose?"

Uriel was speechless. To be honest, no matter how hidden the demon lord is, it is impossible to enter the tower headquarters. When he was in Silver Roof City, Floating Cloud City, and Anti-Angle City, the ghost of the Black Knight was still there, but after he returned to the tower, the undead ghost never appeared again. "You can't start a fight in front of your hometown. You have to walk out."

"I open a different door every day." A reply with no meaning.

Uriel has entered the staircase. The shuttle to the Port of Far Light is much slower than that of the Star Gap, and it is the main body of the matrix array. It's not as good as Joey's special channel, but it's cheaper and more widely available. The magic words flashed one after another, and the apprentice counted down the activation time.

"Are you looking for information from the Ancestors period?"

The question was sudden, but the apprentice was not surprised. There is no doubt that Sauron will not keep any secrets for him in front of Joey. "History can answer questions. There are answers to the Society and the Nameless Ones, their origins, purposes, and reasons for fighting against the mysterious realm."

"It makes no sense. History cannot convince both sides to put aside their hatred."

"Knowing the enemy will help at least. The predecessor of the Nameless One is the First Origin, and the association also comes from Alan Wo's First Origin organization. Before the evil dragon invaded, maybe they had studied the origin of their talents."

"There are now."

Of course, mythical creatures are no fools, and demons certainly are not. "Primordial research must have results. Now the secret society is hidden in Knox and will not disclose information to the mysterious field."

The light flickers. "Then you made a new discovery?"

"A lot." The apprentice told him, "In addition to the origins of contradictions, there is also valuable information among them. The demon lords are all hidden in the mysterious fulcrum. They conceal their identities and steal secrets... The mysterious field has been searching for Nightingale. Maybe we will also send Nightingale there. Get together." "Tattooed" Gizuk once mentioned this in church.

"Indeed. There are also nightingales in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, hiding in secret societies."

"Ministry of Foreign Affairs?" The apprentice didn't expect it.

Bai Zhizhi frowned and looked at him.

"I mean..." He seemed to think I was making a fuss. Uriel blinked. If you think about it carefully, the existence of the association can be traced back to thousands of years ago, and the hatred with the mysterious realm does not last just a day or two. It is strange that the two sides do not send nightingales to spy on each other. After all, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is not an astronomy office, nor is it even like the Affairs Department. It is independent of astrologers and the management system. It is mainly responsible for many matters in the tower's country. Dispatching Nightingale is completely within its scope.

It seems that I really know nothing. "Have we found the demon lord?"

"The Nameless Ones also have astrologers and detection stations."

means no. "Very difficult?"

"There is another reason. It is difficult for the Nightingales of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to enter the core of the association. The nameless people rely on special ways to connect with each other, and are assisted by the original talent. The key is the latter. The talent of the nameless people cannot be defined by profession unless they expose it. "

It was rare for him to explain clearly. Spiritual vision is neither professional magic nor divine magic. Uriel also relied on fire to find his fellow Nameless Ones every time. To put it bluntly, the difference between the Nameless One and ordinary mysterious creatures lies in the fire, and there is a difference in the souls of the two. It is true that when screening themselves, the Seven Fulcrums can rely on fire rituals and divine magic to identify the nameless ones, but if they want to plant spies in turn, they will be hindered far beyond association.

"So we know nothing about the enemy?"

"No. Mercury Lord Rametta, her true identity is the wizard Pachinis of the Silent School." Joey gave an example to refute his words. "The Law Wizard Shania Ravenus was once her apprentice."

Shocking. Lord Quicksilver has no problem stealing school secrets through her apprentices. "Glimmer Lord" Anlini also served as a cardinal... Uriel couldn't help but feel chilled when he thought about the existence of enemies in his trusted alliance. It’s no wonder that the Seven Fulcrums view the Demon Lord as their greatest enemy. He learned firsthand the dangers of nightingales. "She escaped?"

"After the Flood at Fort Six Fingers."

certainly. I would do it in my place. Uriel killed Iconifelvin in Knight's Bay, but before that, he passed on news, hid secrets, almost completely destroyed the church's evidence, and even separated Manet and the unfortunate girls. Appeal. The apprentice cannot forget this.

"If you don't escape, you're waiting for death." The messenger said, "The Mysterious Fulcrum will not tolerate nameless people."

Uriel swallowed. I am not a nightingale. I turned down the Black Knight. But will anyone believe it? Even if the Ministry of Foreign Affairs believes that the best ending is to be burned to death, or some other "gentle" death... By the gods! I'd better stop thinking about it. "You know, I met another demon lord."

"Two." the messenger corrected. The apprentice did not hide his contact with the "Glimmer Lord".

"Oh, right. I have to do the math."

"Do you know their identities?"

Maybe it's an illusion. But Uriel saw a faint light passing through the messenger's eyes, as if he could capture the burning soul inside through the pupils. He was a demon hunter, the apprentice remembered with mixed emotions.

"It's just a guess. I think the Undead Lord may have been related to the Silver Song Knight during his lifetime."

"That dream." The messenger understood the reason for his guess.

"Yes." The Bible Confessions pieced together the holder's dream. The undead lord has never shown his face, but Uriel feels familiar with him. "The style and even color of his armor are very ancient, belonging to the Ancestors period. He has the swordsmanship skills of the Silver Song Knight." The skills that almost disemboweled me... But the messenger can guide me, and the skill gap can be easily bridged. "It's impossible for someone to teach swordsmanship to a dead person. I think this is his legacy during his lifetime. Doesn't the personality aspect prove that the body can store memories?"

The messenger looked at him, "What do you think?"

What do I think? Just a simple question, no need to think too much. But Uriel really couldn't tell. I rejected the Black Knight, claiming that I would not betray the tower. This was absolutely true, but...he thought of Hitarian. The Lingot sisters rely on a secret society to survive. If you want to be a knight who guards your oath, you must betray others. I have to let one party down.

In an instant, he felt an invisible weight pressing on his shoulders. But if I don't say...

While in Silvercrest City, the fear of learning about Joey's death gripped him. You can't change the past! Uriel could hold on no longer. He just wanted the ladder to start instantly so that he could disappear and avoid these difficult choices.

When he opened his mouth, it seemed as if someone was using his throat to make sounds. "Maybe, maybe Rego, or even Bogart." He was more inclined to Rego. "At that time, they were in Alanwo's territory and were tracked by the secret society. They died a thousand years ago. I guess..."

The messenger was silent for a long time, until the light from the staircase flooded the room. His blue eyes seemed to be filled with emotion, but it was fleeting. In the end, the instructor just nodded. "I see."

The apprentice felt no weight loss. In fact, he was filled with confusion. He wanted to get out of the ladder and ask for help from the messenger. In the tower, only Joey knows his secret and will not refuse his request. To take a step back, even if none of them can solve the problem, it will feel better to talk about it.

The thought was full of temptation, urging Uriel to take action... but he stood there, waiting for the light of the stars to take him far away.

In dreams, past events are entangled like shadows. Joey is probably in just as much trouble as he is. Uriel knew very well that throwing the problem to the other party would only increase his burden. I cannot be willful like Roma. What's more, he can escape from the tower right away, escape from the vortex of the mysterious realm and the fight between secret societies... But the White Envoy must not just leave. Would the prophet also know about this? He only wanted me to leave, but he didn't let the messenger who had a problem with "Second Truth" leave. How will the envoy deal with it then?

There is no answer. Suddenly, Uriel was glad that he hadn't graduated yet.

He had mixed feelings until the matrix array started.

In the blink of an eye, Uriel had disappeared into the Tower of Sky. Now he was on the land of Binyaio, with the rolling border hills in front of him, and the only sound in his ears was the whistling wind of the forest behind him. As he stepped onto the road to town, the snow groaned in oppression. The harvested fields outside the city are covered with dry wheat straw and rotting grass blades. He stepped deeply and shallowly over them.

There is no flaming red flag of Yotsuba City, no howling cold wind and majestic Frostleaf Castle, no neat stone road and well-disciplined city guards. But the apprentice was not surprised. After all, this is the Black City on the border of Bres...

...Mortus a thousand years later.
