Alice went to see the high priest in their mouths. High Priest Nim didn't have too many emotional fluctuations. He followed the passage where the crowd dispersed and walked towards the only high platform in the center. ...? After Alice hesitated for two seconds, she stopped in the innermost circle of the crowd and asked aloud: "...Should I go up with you?" As if he didn't expect her to have such a question, Nim turned around, paused for a few seconds, and said after careful consideration: "In normal times, when something important happens in the city, we will gather everyone and announce it here..." "Ah," Alice suddenly understood and nodded empathetically, "Do you want to tell others about my origins first?" Nim's eyes were fixed on her for a few seconds, and finally he said silently: "……yes."
Then, Alice watched Nim walking up to the high platform, and after a long silence, she spoke: "You should already know that Xin and Ruth discovered a person from the mist. “I’ve seen her…no, Him. "He calls himself Miss Destiny. She comes from outside this cursed land and is guided by fate..." Alice looked up at the high platform. The people in Moon City were not as tall as those in Silver City. Most of the people here were not even as tall as her. Even if High Priest Nim stood on the high platform, he was not as tall as the chief. Of course, this was not an issue that she should pay attention to. She just vaguely realized one thing from the gesture of High Priest Nim - maybe she was the one who should be standing there at this moment. She's supposed to go up, introduce herself, and preach...wait, whose doctrine is she preaching? Oh, by the way, why did he call me "He"... because of the tone I used when I mentioned "ancient sun god"? Alice turned around. Behind her, the residents of Moon City had quietly dispersed in a semicircle. Alice turned her gaze back to the high platform. After two seconds of silence, she also stepped towards the high platform. Nim stopped talking due to her actions and made room for her in the center. Alice looked at Nim and then at the crowd, standing there a little dazed. Should the speech...should have a microphone? It was obviously impossible to have such a thing in this place. Alice's eyes searched around and finally landed on a thin child in the crowd. The child was holding a thin book in his hand. Alice's eyes lit up, and she subconsciously took a half-step to rush down, but quickly retracted her steps. It doesn’t seem appropriate... Hmm... Everyone in the audience looked up at her, seemingly unaware of her little movement. Alice stood there for a few seconds and began to recall how Miss Justice had introduced how to pretend to be fainted gracefully at the Tarot Club. This is what she pestered Audrey to say at that time. There was no need to worry about being injured. Alice had a lot less trouble in the process of pretending to be unconscious. So in full view of everyone, her body shook twice and then fell to the ground as if she had lost all strength. After a brief silence, the scene turned into a commotion, but under Nim's comfort and orders, the surroundings quickly returned to order.
Alice noticed that someone was carrying her onto something, most likely a stretcher. After that, she was carried for an unknown distance, going around and around, and finally she was placed on a bed. Those people Closed the door and walked out. Alice still lay there without moving. After a while, someone seemed to come in again. Alice felt a sense of being spied on, as if something wanted to see her true nature. She frowned and opened her eyes. This is a dark secret room, but "Apollo" exudes dazzling light on Alice. These people seem to have no intention of taking off the robe, so in the light, Alice sees a similarly deformed face. There were not many sarcomas on this face, but his eyes were one big and one small. At this moment, a monocle was placed on his right eye. When Alice woke up, he subconsciously pushed up the glasses. Alice reflexively jumped up from the bed, tensed her back, closed her eyes and screamed: "Help ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" This sound seemed to wake up the person in front of her, and another scream sounded in the secret room: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!" He didn't call for help, he simply screamed. Alice stopped screaming when she heard his voice, opened her eyes again, and looked him up and down with a frown. It shouldn't be Amon. Amon's clone is not that good... The spiritual feedback made Alice relax a little, and she quickly looked at the monocle, which was the source of the sense of voyeurism. Observation, analysis... A vague feeling came from her spiritual intuition. Alice pinched her eyebrows, pondered for a moment and then asked: "Well...if this thing saw the form of a mythical creature, you would die, right?" The stranger's screams had stopped at this moment. He looked at Alice in confusion amid Alice's questions. Looking into his eyes, Alice sighed softly and completely let go of the aura of the mythical creature. Looking at the horrified visitor, Alice said slowly: "Angels...are the existences you called gods in the past. If you look at them like this...you will die, right?" "You've already guessed it, why do you want to do this...Does he really believe that I passed out? "Well, anyway, I'm going to sleep first and ask people not to disturb me if they have nothing to do... Good night." The power of "restart" continued at the end of her words, sending the person out of the secret room and closing the door. Immediately afterwards, a spiritual barrier isolated the secret room, and Alice had time to mutter to herself: "It seems that I failed to pretend to be unconscious... Forget it, the most embarrassing part is over anyway, let's talk about the rest later. "That monocle is a sealed object... I don't know which way it came from. That feeling, could it be..." Alice frowned, thinking of "readers" who could imitate other people's abilities. Speaking of which, I wonder what happened to Daniz and his captain... Does Edwina know that everyone on the ship likes her? That’s right, Klein! Alice suddenly remembered something crucial - she didn't reply to the message. In the weird state she was in before, she actually couldn't think. Whether it was responding to prayers or responding to rituals, she couldn't actually do it - except automatically.
Of course, there should be no one in the "Land Abandoned by Gods" who needs her to automatically respond to the ritual... No, the active ones probably don’t either. But the message Alice wants to return actually belongs to Klein. Although she didn't have the energy to check or respond, she actually received the message. During the few days when she was "floating", Klein asked her... asked her once if she wanted to eat ice cream. Next, after an unknown period of time, Klein asked her if something had happened - it seemed that he might have the answer in his mind now. No, maybe he already thought something was wrong with me when he asked me if I wanted some ice cream... Alice was not sure exactly when Klein realized something was wrong, but she had been "drifting" in a state of confusion for at least half a week - probably not even a week, and Klein would have mentioned it if she missed the Tarot session. Not caring about anything else, Alice closed her eyes and began to pray within the spiritual barrier: "The fool who does not belong to this era, "The mysterious master above the gray fog, "The King of Yellow and Black who controls good luck, "I pray for your attention, "I beg you to hear me, "Uh...are you there?" After doing all this, Alice opened her eyes silently and waited for Klein's reply. … Although he felt irritable when Alice returned the dishes with food residue, Klein had long been used to it and started washing the dishes with a curse. Well, I will use this set of tableware to serve her food next time she eats... The diligent and frugal Klein nodded secretly, and then waited for when Alice wanted to make him feel uncomfortable again. As an angel, Alice obviously doesn't need three meals a day. In an environment like the "Forsaken Land", Klein guessed that Alice wouldn't be able to eat three meals a day according to the meal schedule, as long as she didn't suddenly say She wanted to eat, and Klein thought he should be able to accept it. But... what if she only asked once and there was no follow-up? After a day passed, Klein finally couldn't bear it anymore. He came above the gray fog. After hesitating for a moment, he tentatively poked the crimson star belonging to Alice and sent a message: "Alice? Do you want some ice cream?" No one paid any attention to him. Maybe she is inconvenient now, maybe she is busy now, and she will definitely come to me when she is free... In this way, Klein comforted himself while doing what he should do. After all, his life is not just about being a nanny for Alice. I remembered again that Alice had received a reply from Mr. Azik.
After the Bone Messenger disintegrated and disappeared, Klein unfolded the envelope in the sun and browsed the contents of the letter: “…I’m glad you got the promotion and your travel experience was more interesting than I could have imagined. "That sea area is indeed very dangerous. I vaguely remember that it may be related to the source of the cataclysm. As for why the ancient god of death has the aura left there, I am not sure. "I will remember your reminder. I will not enter that sea before I completely recover my memory. The ravings of the 'True Creator' are not pleasant to hear. "I am somewhat interested in the ring in the hands of 'Admiral Hell', but I am currently entangled in a past event. It may take some time before I can visit him... "...the name of the potion in Sequence 4 of the 'Soothsayer' path is 'Magician', and it is indeed not called 'Circusmaster' or 'Circus' or anything like that. "Why do you think this way? "..." Klein silently put away the envelope. Why does he think this way? Of course you have to ask...wait, where is Alice? Alice still didn't reply. Klein realized something was wrong. After finding the bathroom, he came above the gray fog again and tried to see the crimson star belonging to Alice. There was no doubt that he could see nothing. This situation occurred after Alice regained her uniqueness. He was able to contact Alice by touching the star, but at this stage, he seemed unable to see clearly what was happening around Alice. It's like the signal was cut off by something. Klein had a hunch that this was temporary. If he could further master the power of this gray mist, it might be possible, although he couldn't speculate on how far it would go. But at this moment, the danger of this situation occurred - he had no idea what was happening on Alice's side. Above the gray fog, he tried to throw a coin without any hope, but the result showed that everything was safe. ...? Klein decided to try again using the pendulum method. The pendulum swung clockwise, so violently that it seemed to fall from his hand. This was dangerous, and very dangerous, and it couldn't be more dangerous. …? Faced with two divinations with completely opposite results, Klein hesitated for a moment and tried the pendulum method for the second time. The yellow crystal pendant still rotated clockwise, but the amplitude of rotation was much smaller than the last time, which meant that there was almost no danger. …? Klein tried the pendulum divination for the third time, and the result this time showed that there was danger but the right choice needed to be made. The fourth time, the fifth time…
After seven consecutive divinations, Klein confirmed one thing - the divination results about Alice seemed to be random to a certain extent. Everything seemed to be undetermined. After hesitating for a moment, he just asked Alice worriedly, and then did not continue. Instead, he planned to find clues to the potion formula while waiting for Alice to reply. She should be able to be promoted to Sequence 1 safely, right…? She can't just go and be reborn now... Klein spent several days in this worry, until he heard the woman's prayer sound in his ears, he became excited. Although he knew that the person praying might not be Alice, but someone else, Klein still eagerly found a bathroom and came to the gray fog. ... Waiting for a reply in the dark secret room is a boring thing. If Alice can really stick to this kind of thing, she will not be Alice-so she fell asleep. Meditation is really a tool for falling asleep quickly. Since learning meditation, Alice has never suffered from insomnia again. Dreams quickly overwhelmed her and covered her tired spirit. In front of Alice was the familiar face of Song Shu. Alice saw her smiling and bending down, and stretched out a hand to herself. In the chaotic thoughts, Alice heard Song Shu's familiar, smiling voice: "Huanhuan... or should I call you... Alice? "Let's... have a gamble? " The emotion in that voice was as condescending as her posture - it was an order that looked like a question. This should be a memory, Alice thought, and she also thought there should be gambling content behind it, but unfortunately, she couldn't see it for the time being. The gray fog enveloped the surroundings, waking her up from her dream. Above the gray fog, the figure high above shouted in an excited tone: "Alice? Are you okay?" (End of this chapter)
