"The Fool" Klein frowned slightly: Was this battle of the gods manipulated by the Outer Gods? But why would the Outer Gods do this?
"The Hermit" Cattleya realized: No wonder "The Emperor" repeatedly emphasized that this battle of the gods had far-reaching effects. It seems that it's not just that after the fall of the ancient gods, their subsidiary gods became big figures in the extraordinary world, but also that the battle itself has a profound impact on the real world.
"The Hanged Man" Alger was also pondering: During the Second Epoch, did the Outer Gods have such a great influence on the real world? Why does it seem like I can't feel any influence now?
Then he smiled and said: Maybe it's because my level is too low, so even if there is an influence, it won't affect me.
"The Moon" Emlyn simply asked: "Which Outer God influenced our 'Ancestor'?"
"The Mother Goddess of Depravity!" Hobert replied: "I mentioned it once before, 'Sanguine Ancestor' Lilith was affected by something at the time.
"But at that time, I was not very sure about the authenticity of this information. Later, I had the opportunity to ask the great 'Creator' about this matter and confirmed that Farbauti's information was basically true."
In fact, it was not very suitable to reveal too much information about the Outer Deities at that time.
"Justice" Audrey asked: "Mr. Emperor, what is the purpose of the Outer Gods? Do they just want the ancient gods to fight?"
Emlyn nodded repeatedly, feeling that Miss Justice's question was very precise.
Hobert replied: "According to my observations and guesses, their goal is to completely control the gods of the real world!"
The other members were very surprised!
Control the gods?
"The Star" Leonard: This is definitely blasphemy against the gods... Well, this level of blasphemy seems acceptable.
He thought to himself: Uh, I seem to have been led astray by "The Emperor".
"The World" then asked: "Why would the Outer Gods have such a purpose? Do they just want to create powerful puppets in the real world that are at their command?"
Hobert said: "I do have some guesses about this, but I currently lack key evidence and some key information, so I can't answer your question for the time being.
"But I can roughly talk about my guess. The purpose of the Outer Gods seems to be to obtain some of the Beyonder characteristics of the gods."
He was deliberately blurring this information because now is not a good time to explain the "Awakening of the Original Creator's will" and other issues.
This answer greatly exceeded Klein's expectations. He almost subconsciously manipulated "The World" to continue asking why, but thinking that it should be a place where Hobert could not confirm the answer yet, he restrained his desire for knowledge and did not continue to ask.
Leonard then asked: "Do the Outer Gods only want to obtain the Beyonder characteristics of the ancient gods? Or do they also want to obtain the Beyonder characteristics of the current gods?"
Hobert smiled and asked: "Is there any difference?"
Leonard showed an ugly smile. Of course, it was different for him. The ancient gods were just legendary names to him, as if they had nothing to do with him.
Since learning that the Evernight Goddess was once a subsidiary god of the ancient gods, and after Leonard accepted this point, he felt a sense of "participation" in that history.
But in his subconscious, the ancient gods and the modern gods still seemed to be different beings.
Hobert continued: "Let's continue the topic just now. We said before that the three ancient gods who participated in the battle of the gods, including 'Sanguine Ancestor', all had subsidiary gods participating in the war.
"Then this shows that this battle was not entirely an encounter, at least it went through basic mobilization.
"Even if it only mobilized to the level of subsidiary gods, it still requires preparation time. If it was completely an encounter, there would be almost no time for mobilization.
"Of course, it is also possible that after the encounter battle started, the subsidiary gods learned that the main god was fighting, so they came to support.
"But the problem is, the subsidiary gods had time to come to participate in the war, why didn't the other ancient gods have time to come?"
When everyone heard this, they understood what "The Emperor" meant: The process and result of the outbreak of this war were very strange!
Logically speaking, since the ancient gods were divided into two camps, there should be a mutual support mechanism between the camps.
However, neither "Sanguine Ancestor" nor "Mutant King" received any support.
At this time, Leonard tried to analyze: "It is also possible that it was originally a battle between two camps. The three ancient gods of the 'Pan-Humanity Camp' were fighting against the three ancient gods of the 'Non-Human Camp', so the other ancient gods had no way to support.
"The Magician" Fors reminded: "Mr. Star, you have such a guess because you don't know another piece of information."
She said: "We learned from a transaction with 'The Emperor' before that after the battle, 'Giant King' and 'Elf King' accused each other of betraying 'Sanguine Ancestor', which led to the battle where she perished together with other ancient gods.
"If it was a battle between six ancient gods, and the three ancient gods of the 'Pan-Humanity Camp' also participated, how could there be talk of betrayal?"
Leonard was slightly stunned: "I didn't know there was such a thing."
Then he also fell into contemplation. Obviously, the outbreak of this battle of the gods was indeed a bit incomprehensible.
At this time, Hobert said: "According to the information I obtained from Farbauti, and some of my guesses.
"It is very likely that the other ancient gods defaulted to the outbreak of this battle, or rather, they had no intention of stopping it.
"In addition, I believe that the battle initiated by 'Sanguine Ancestor' may have been her plan to get rid of the control of the Outer Gods."
Everyone felt more and more confused as they listened, so they stared at "The Emperor", waiting for him to explain further.
"Even for modern gods, the corruption of the Outer Gods is a difficult problem to solve." Hobert began to explain: "In terms of level, it's as simple as a god polluting an angel.
"It's just that under normal circumstances, gods will choose to directly attack angels, because injuring angels or making angels in a bad state in this way is a more cost-effective attack method.
"But the Outer Gods are different. The power they can project into the real world is very limited. Using long-term corruption to affect the gods may be their only way to deal with the gods.
"So the other ancient gods, in order to avoid being polluted, had no intention of participating in this battle.
"And the mutual accusations between 'Giant King' and 'Elf King' are likely to be accusing each other of allowing 'Sanguine Ancestor' to be polluted, not accusing that 'Sanguine Ancestor' fell into the trap of the enemy camp because of the other's betrayal.
"This question is not complicated. If the 'Non-Human Camp' had set up a trap in advance, waiting for 'Giant King' or 'Elf King' to lead 'Sanguine Ancestor' into the trap, then what 'Sanguine Ancestor' would have suffered was the ambush of the ancient gods of the 'Non-Human Camp', and 'Annihilation Demonic Wolf' would never have appeared in this ambush.
"Then, after excluding other possibilities, the conclusion that other ancient gods were unwilling to participate in the war is basically established."
Cattleya smiled: Another wonderful analysis.
Hobert continued to explain: "According to other information I obtained, in the Second Epoch, the Outer Gods could not cause too much impact on the real world, or rather, the impact caused until now is very limited.
"Another piece of information is that the corruption of 'Mother Goddess of Depravity' is relatively special and difficult to remove.
"Based on these two pieces of information obtained from different places at different times, I infer that although 'Sanguine Ancestor' was affected by the Outer Gods, it was far from the point of losing her mind!
"But if she doesn't find a way to solve the corruption of 'Mother Goddess of Depravity' as soon as possible, and delays it, she will definitely lose control completely. The way she thought of may be to sacrifice the godhood in order to preserve her will from being completely polluted by the Outer Gods.
"The specific operation method has not yet obtained accurate information, but I guess that for a period of time, 'Sanguine Ancestor' should have used the uniqueness of the 'Moon' pathway to exist in the real world."
In fact, it is not suitable to announce the plans and transactions between the Evernight Goddess and Lilith now. These information must be announced after the battle of the gods.
Hobert guessed that Lilith's initial plan should have been to use the death of "Sanguine Ancestor" and use some unknown methods to eliminate the corruption of "Mother Goddess of Depravity", and while holding the uniqueness, seize the opportunity to recover other Sequence 1 characteristics.
In the Era of Fire, Lilith may have had contact with the Goddess of Misfortune, that is, the Evernight Goddess, but at that time, the Ancient Sun God had not yet awakened, so in her plan, there should be no part of the Ancient Sun God.
It's just that her plan was destroyed by the "Devil Monarch" Farbauti, and the "God of Spiritual Creatures" at that time, and the later "Chained God" and other gods.
For a considerable period of time, Lilith was likely to have survived by relying on the uniqueness of the "Moon" pathway. Of course, at this time, She was protected by the "Concealment" of the Goddess of Misfortune.
It was not until the return of the Evernight Goddess and the awakening of the Ancient Sun God that things ushered in a turning point.
Regarding these information, as well as the guesses about why "Annihilation Demonic Wolf" would participate in the war, Hobert plans to explain it in detail to the members a year after the end of the battle of the gods.
At this time, at the Tarot Club, Klein recalled some of the previous transaction content and his own guesses: If the uniqueness of the "Moon" pathway is now with the Goddess, then can it also be considered that Lilith is also "collected" by the Goddess in the Divine Kingdom?
Similar operations of gods using death to achieve their own goals are no longer new to other members, after all, they have heard of similar cases before.
But this still made them start their own reveries. At this moment, "The Moon" Emlyn suddenly cried out loudly: "Our ancestor..."
Everyone's imagination had just begun when it was drawn away by Mr. Moon.
Only to see "Moon" wipe away tears: "Our ancestor, in order to prevent this world from being corrupted by Outer Gods, chose to sacrifice Herself! She saved this world!"
Derrick, sitting next to him as "Sun," was stunned for a long while: How did you come to that conclusion?
Audrey also fell into brief self-doubt: Could it be that I didn't completely understand Hobert's meaning? Why do I feel like it was just some scheme carried out by the 'Sanguine Ancestor' to escape his predicament? Does it have much to do with saving the world?
The other members were also momentarily unsure of what to say, and finally, everyone looked towards "Emperor."
Hobert smiled helplessly and said: "Mr. Moon, we have made some deals before. The 'Sanguine Ancestor's' situation later encountered a turning point, you don't need to be so sad."
Before Emlyn could react, he immediately said: "Let's talk about the situation of the 'Mutant King' at that time.
"According to the information provided by the 'Devil Monarch,' the 'Mutant King' was not affected by the Outer Gods at that time, but his attendant god, the 'God of Spiritual Creatures,' made a deal with the 'Mother Tree of Desire.'"
"When talking about this matter, Farbauti made a special explanation, that in the Second Epoch, there were many beings in strange states.
"Initially, the 'God of Spiritual Creatures' was not very clear that he was making a deal with an Outer God, he only thought it was a being in a strange state.
"Under the manipulation and intervention of the 'God of Spiritual Creatures' and the 'Goddess of Misfortune,' the 'Mutant King' and the 'Annihilation Demonic Wolf' should have made many misjudgments during the battle, resulting in the 'Sanguine Ancestor' dragging them down to die together."
"Here, Farbauti used a very appropriate analogy, for example, if three Beyonder beings of the same level were fighting, and one wanted to die together with the other two, at least one of the other two could escape.
"At that time, the 'Sanguine Ancestor' didn't have time to design a trap, and even if there was a trap, the 'Annihilation Demonic Wolf,' with its strong spirituality and premonition ability, would probably not step into it.
"For Farbauti, who did not participate in the battle and only observed to a certain extent, the result of the three ancient gods dying together made him feel very strange."
Not only Farbauti felt strange, but the members of the Tarot Club also felt very strange.
Klein, behind the gray fog, even thought: Could it be that the Goddess suddenly took action at a critical moment, giving the "Annihilation Demonic Wolf" enough misfortune? After all, according to the previous deal, the "Annihilation Demonic Wolf" was only at the level of an King of Angels. As a Goddess at the Angel level, ambushing at the right time could completely make the "Annihilation Demonic Wolf" unlucky enough in a short period of time.
Cattleya was also making a similar guess: I heard that the "Prisoner" pathway's "Source of Curses" ability can not only harm the target by harming oneself, but also harm the target by deliberately suffering some Beyonder attacks. When the "Sanguine Ancestor" was preparing to fight to the death, could it be that the "Mutant King" was about to escape, but the "God of Spiritual Creatures" rushed up and held back the "Mutant King" by enduring some damage himself?
Alger thought: The "Goddess of Misfortune" could help the "Sanguine Ancestor" hold back the "Annihilation Demonic Wolf," for example, by putting the "Annihilation Demonic Wolf" into a brief slumber at the right time.
Although the other members knew a little about the Beyonder abilities of these three pathways, none of them dared to imagine at the level of gods.
Especially Leonard, who rarely sat there properly, not daring to have any blasphemous thoughts.
Hobert gave everyone a few seconds to digest before continuing: "I have always believed that the simplest way to understand some problems is to look at the relationship of interests.
"For example, in this war of gods, the 'Goddess of Misfortune' and the 'God of Spiritual Creatures' have both benefited greatly, so they must be inseparable from the fall of the three ancient gods.
"The only difference from the 'Goddess of Misfortune' is that Farbauti has been quietly watching this war of gods and taking away a Sequence 1 characteristic of the 'Prisoner' pathway at the right opportunity.
"And at that time, the 'God of Spiritual Creatures,' as an Angel level being, when encountering the 'Devil Monarch' snatching the spoils, his choice must have been to escape immediately.
"It is said that after this war of gods, the 'God of Spiritual Creatures' completed the deal with the 'Mother Tree of Desire,' and sacrificed to her a Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristic of the 'Moon' pathway.
"I guess the 'Mother Tree of Desire' should have provided the 'God of Spiritual Creatures' with some way to temporarily trap the 'Mutant King,' or to temporarily prevent the 'Mutant King' from escaping."
"According to Farbauti, what the 'Mother Tree of Desire' wanted should have been the Sequence 1 characteristic of the 'Prisoner' pathway, but the 'God of Spiritual Creatures' still had to use it himself, and it was impossible to sacrifice the characteristic of this pathway to her.
"Farbauti also said that he felt the malice of the 'Mother Tree of Desire' at that time, but at that time, he did not have a very intuitive understanding of the purpose of the Outer Gods, so in order to limit the 'Mother Tree of Desire,' he sacrificed the Sequence 1 characteristic of the 'Prisoner' pathway that he had obtained to the 'Mother Goddess of Depravity!'"
Hearing this, Klein's reaction was similar to Hobert's when he first heard the news: This is the balance between the gods, right?
However, Hobert then said: "This is basically Farbauti's original words, but I have not yet verified this part of the information.
"After all, deception may be a habit of a 'Demon.' Farbauti's information needs to be reconfirmed through other channels before a final conclusion can be drawn.
"However, I have already confirmed through other channels that the 'Mother Tree of Desire' does indeed have high-sequence Beyonder characteristics of the 'Moon' pathway.
"We said before when we traded information about the 'Primordial Moon' that the 'Mother Tree of Desire' also has a way to impersonate the 'Primordial Moon.' Her impersonation method should be to use a Sequence 1 Beyonder characteristic of the 'Moon' pathway!
"As for whether Farbauti sacrificed the Sequence 1 characteristic of the 'Prisoner' pathway to the 'Mother Goddess of Depravity,' that is hard to say.
"At that time, there was indeed no concept of the Outer Deities, and the first 'Blasphemy Slate' had not yet appeared, and there may not have been a complete theory of adjacent pathways.
"But according to the information I obtained from other channels, the characteristic of Beyonder characteristics attracting each other, Beyonder beings can already faintly sense at the Sequence 2 level.
"Farbauti obtained a Sequence 1 characteristic of an adjacent pathway. I don't believe that he didn't sense the attraction between them. Maybe he just hid that Beyonder characteristic himself."
The other members couldn't help but smile, all feeling like the bottom line of a certain evil god had been exposed.
But soon Klein and Alger thought almost at the same time: "Emperor's" information is only announced at the Tarot Club after it has been verified to a certain extent, and this confirmation method is likely to be through the "Creator," or to make some reasonable guesses. But no matter what, this process is very reliable, so even some of his guesses are very credible.
"Let's go back to the 'God of Spiritual Creatures.'" Hobert said: "During the Second Epoch, the influence of the Outer Gods on the real world was still very weak, so his cooperation with the 'Mother Tree of Desire' did not have much impact on himself.
"Even in the Third Epoch, he even joined 'Rose Redemption.'"
"We have also said before that those who can join this organization are gods who are more trusted by the Ancient Sun God and the Evernight Goddess. If the 'God of Spiritual Creatures' had a problem at this time, the Evernight Goddess would definitely not have invited him.
"The turning point of the matter should have appeared at the end of the Fourth Epoch. Some members should have heard that the Seven Gods entered the Astral World at the end of the Fourth Epoch, and have rarely appeared in divine descents since the Fifth Epoch.
"It is said that at the end of the Fourth Epoch, the Seven Gods realized that the Outer Gods were trying to infiltrate power into the real world, so they collectively went to the Astral World to resist the Outer Gods who were peeking at the real world."
Audrey's eyes flashed with some surprise: This is the first time I've heard of such a thing!
Fors realized: If Hobert hadn't said so, I would have felt that the gods should have lived in the Astral World. But thinking about the struggles they had before the Fifth Epoch, they should have indeed stayed in the real world for a long time!
Emlyn and Derrick each expressed their surprise, while the other members knew a little more or less.
Hobert said: "After the beginning of the Fifth Epoch, due to the fall of the Underworld Emperor, the Balam Empire had a huge division around the issue of supporting a new emperor or resurrecting the Underworld Emperor.
"At this time, the 'God of Spiritual Creatures' changed his name to the 'Chained God,' established the 'Rose School,' and established the Highland Kingdom, competing with the Balam Empire for the rule of the Southern Continent.
"According to the time and place of the 'Chained God's' appearance, he should have been on the Southern Continent ever since he withdrew from the 'Rose Redemption' in the early Fourth Epoch.
"After the fall of the Underworld Emperor, he finally waited for the opportunity.
"Unfortunately, in the Fifth Epoch, the 'Mother Tree of Desire's' influence on the real world has been greatly strengthened. The 'Devil Monarch,' who had previously tried to avoid contact with the 'Mother Tree of Desire,' can still continue to stalemate with this Outer God.
"And the 'Chained God,' who had cooperated with the 'Mother Tree of Desire' before, did not have much glory in the Fifth Epoch before being completely controlled by this Outer God!"
After the hall was silent for a second or two, Klein thought: The "Mother Tree of Desire" should have begun to exert influence on the "Chained God" in the Second Epoch, and waited until the Fifth Epoch, when the time was right, to suddenly take action. No wonder Hobert would say that, after a long period of preparation, polluting at the right time is the only means of attack by the Outer Gods against the gods. It turns out that he has evidence for this statement.
Then he thought: This can further prove that the Outer Gods' influence on the real world is indeed not great.
Emlyn, on the other hand, felt a bit of lingering fear: Fortunately, our "Ancestor" noticed early on that he was being influenced and made corresponding plans and arrangements. Otherwise, we would have ended up as miserable as the "Chained God," completely controlled.
Cattleya, on the other hand, thought of another direction: The "Mother Tree of Desire" controls the Angel of Kings of this pathway, which to a certain extent controls the entire pathway!
Alger also had similar thoughts, and his conjecture went a step further: Could the indulgence and Temperance factions of the "Rose School of Thought" be the final struggle between the "Mother Tree of Desire" and the "Chained God"?
At this time, Emlyn, who proposed this transaction, asked again: "Emperor, what is the specific state of the 'Chained God' now? Has he fallen directly?"
"It doesn't seem like he has fallen directly at the moment," Hobert replied. "But to some extent, it may be worse than falling directly."
"It is said that Suah, the leader of the "Rose School of Thought" now, is the child created by the 'Mother Tree of Desire' using a Sequence 1 characteristic torn from the 'Chained God'."
Audrey frowned: Why are the similar operations of the gods always beyond my imagination? Sequence 1 characteristics can even be used to create children?
Fors also felt a little uncomfortable. After all, in her opinion, children should be conceived, not manufactured.
Among the female members of the Tarot Club, perhaps only Cattleya, who had been promoted to a demigod, didn't feel anything. This is the mystical world.
As far as she knew, high-sequence Beyonders of the "Moon" pathway can rapidly conceive life!
Klein thought to himself: This "Chained God" is really miserable. Even the Beyonder characteristics have been torn off. Being alive is worse than death.
Hobert continued: "I don't know the specific situation of the 'Chained God', but judging from the fact that only one Suah has appeared, He should still have the Uniqueness and a Sequence 1 characteristic of that pathway.
"And the power that the 'Mother Tree of Desire' can currently project into the real world is still limited. Before everyone gets specific information about Her, their perception of Her is the best proof. It seems that the power of this Outer God is only slightly stronger than the power of some wild gods.
"It is estimated that She used a relatively clever method when tearing off the Beyonder characteristics of the 'Chained God'. If She had mastered the Uniqueness of the 'Prisoner' pathway, it would have been impossible for Her to be so unknown in the real world.
"And the 'Abomination' Suah, controlled by the 'Mother Tree of Desire', obviously has no way to completely kill the 'Chained God'. Otherwise, the members of the Temperance faction would definitely be able to feel the fall of the Angel of Kings of their pathway."
Leonard nodded slightly: It is said that when the Underworld Emperor fell, the state of some Beyonders of the "Corpse Collector" pathway was not very good for a long time. The old man said that apart from the fact that this pathway is relatively special, the fall of an existence with Uniqueness in this pathway has more or less influence on many Beyonders of this pathway, at least they can sense roughly when the other party fell.
Hobert finally concluded: "Then the current state of the 'Chained God' can basically be deduced: He should be hiding in a corner, fighting the 'Mother Tree of Desire' for the last time.
"What is certain is that He has completely lost His freedom and has been severely polluted, but because He still controls the Uniqueness of the 'Prisoner' pathway, He can still make a final resistance.
"The 'Mother Tree of Desire' should need some opportunity to completely obtain all the Beyonder characteristics of the 'Chained God'. For the time being, the 'Chained God' will not fall."
Emlyn asked very carefully this time: "Emperor, can the 'Chained God' still provide some help to the 'Temperance Faction'?"
Hobert immediately replied: "He can't provide any help. It would be a blessing if He didn't affect the members of the 'Temperance Faction' and corrupt them."
Emlyn nodded: "I understand, thank you for your answer."
This transaction ended, and everyone worked hard again to digest the information they had just traded.
Klein suddenly realized: After obtaining the information of the "Chained God", the Tarot Club has already traded the information of all the "well-known" evil gods in the Beyonder world so far.
The first is the True Creator, who actually came from the Ancient Sun God! It is the evil god formed by the humanity and depraved emotions of this old being.
The second is the Primordial Demoness. It turned out that she was seriously injured at the end of the Fourth Epoch, and her state has been very bad ever since because of that injury.
The third is the Primordial Moon. This god has many believers. Some people believe that He is actually the "Sanguine Ancestor", and some people believe that He is the high-sequence Beyonder characteristics of the "Moon" pathway, and He responds to prayers on His own because of spiritual remnants. Before trading relevant information, Klein didn't expect that two Outer Gods would be competing for this "evil god vest".
The fourth is the Dark Side of the Universe. This evil god is not very "well-known", and does not appear frequently in the Beyonder world, but He has a great background. He is actually Farbauti, the "Devil Monarch" from the Second Epoch.
The fifth is the Chained God traded today, who is not very "well-known" in the Northern Continent. When Klein went to the Southern Continent, he learned that the Chained God still has many believers in the Highland Kingdom, but almost no one in the Northern Continent believes in this evil god.
They are the evil gods recognized by the major churches and the vast number of Beyonders. As for the Angel of Kings like Adam, Amon, and "Mr. Door", first of all, they are relatively low-key, or have been sealed, and there has never been a bloody sacrifice for them, so they are not recognized as evil gods in the Beyonder world, and many Beyonders don't even know of their existence.
After the hall was quiet for more than ten seconds, Hobert suddenly said: "I need to correct some information in a previous transaction."
The other members were all stunned. It was the first time they had heard of such a statement as "correcting information".
Klein thought to himself: Is this after-sales service?
Hobert said: "When trading some information about the Fourth Epoch before, the information I obtained had some errors. Last week, I obtained more accurate information, so I want to explain it to everyone."
This made everyone even more curious. Before, they felt that the information about the Fourth Epoch was very detailed and reasonable, and they didn't feel that there was anything unreasonable about it.
"Everyone should still remember my description of the True Creator's camp," Hobert further explained. "At that time, I said that the True Creator's camp had a considerable disadvantage, and that the only existences at the level of True Gods were the True Creator and Solomon.
"I just got the exact news last week that the Underworld Emperor also participated in the war at that time, and he supported the True Creator.
"As for the Angel of Kings, besides Medici and Ouroboros, there was also 'Mr. Door'.
"In terms of angels, there were also Antigonus, Zoroast, and Zaratul, among other archangels.
"Overall, their strength was actually similar to that of the Six Gods camp, especially in terms of archangels, there were as many as seven or eight, but there was a lack of power at the level of True Gods."
Everyone showed some surprise. Leonard thought to himself: No wonder the old man always spoke with a sense of pride whenever he mentioned the Solomon Empire, it turns out that the Solomon Empire in its heyday was so strong!
Klein thought: That makes sense, why the Six Gods would find Tudor and Trunsoest as internal agents. Otherwise, if they had an overwhelming advantage, they wouldn't need to use such conspiracies and tricks.
Alger suddenly smiled: It's a pity, this camp was still destroyed, because their opponent was the Six Gods.
The other members also had their own feelings, but they didn't feel much, or rather, after just talking about "high-end topics" such as the Outer Deities and the Ancient Gods, they were a little numb to this kind of news.
In the next ten seconds, because there was no new transaction, it jumped to the free exchange session.
Alger spoke first: "I saw the 'Specter Empire' in Tortuga Port!"
Cattleya was slightly stunned and then said: "Is this news true?"
When Alger arrived in Tortuga Port, she had just left there not long ago, and thought that the news she had received was wrong.
After all, that was a legendary "treasure ship". There had been no news about this ship before, but it suddenly appeared in Tortuga Port at this time.
"It's true," Alger affirmed. "I was on the dock in the harbour when the 'Specter Empire' appeared."
Everyone had more or less heard about the relevant information about this ship, and they all knew that it was one of the legendary treasures at sea.
So everyone looked at Hobert, and Audrey was somewhat unhappy: We even had lunch together at noon, but you didn't tell me about such an important thing!
"First of all, on behalf of Tortuga Port, I welcome you to come, Mr. Hanged Man," Hobert said with a smile. "And Ms. Hermit, I'm sorry, I've been busy with other things these days and haven't been able to entertain you."
Alger smiled: "I'm just very curious about what kind of harbour it is, no need to entertain me."
Ms. Hermit smiled and said nothing. She completely landed secretly, so there was even less need for entertainment.
Fors was slightly stunned: Mr. Hanged Man and Ms. Hermit have both been to Tortuga Port? I didn't know anything about it.
At this time, she didn't know whether she should entertain them if she encountered such a situation again, or not.
It would indeed be a little impolite not to entertain them, but if she did, they would most likely recognize that she was "The Magician".
Hobert continued: "As Mr. Hanged Man said, that is the 'Specter Empire'. One of our members found its clues in Santiadro City and found this giant ship in the Berserk Sea.
"Its current role is to guard against Erebus's surprise attack. Because the purpose of construction was different, the 'Specter Empire' is completely a giant warship. I believe the 'Black Emperor' would not be its opponent either."
And the attack by the 'Rose School' last week was a good verification of the 'Specter Empire's' combat power. The 'Tree of Flesh and Blood' and the pirate admiral-level fleet were completely disintegrated in less than ten minutes."
Alger thought to himself: Actually, it only took one minute. Everyone on the 'Tree of Flesh and Blood' fleet was dead. The remaining nine minutes were spent with white flames burning the pirates' corpses and turning the giant, dozens of meters long 'Tree of Flesh and Blood' into ashes.
Cattleya turned her head away, always feeling that the 'Emperor' specifically mentioned 'Pirate Admiral' as a warning to herself.
Emlyn asked curiously: "Mr. Emperor, does the 'Specter Empire' really have mountains of treasure?"
"No." Hobert said simply: "There are only a few hundred cursed people, but this ship's weapons are very special, enough to eliminate an angel."
"But the premise is that the angel stands there motionless, allowing the 'Specter Empire' to attack as much as it wants."
Audrey asked further: "Mr. Emperor, I remember you said before that you obtained some information about the 'Specter Empire' during an exploration with Mr. Hanged Man. Are they really cursed by the Underworld Emperor?"
Hobert replied: "Yes!"
Leonard, who didn't know the relevant information, was very curious and was about to ask a question, but 'The World' spoke first: "Didn't you hear clearly? Mr. Emperor said that one of his companions discovered the clues to this ship from the city of Santiadro!"
Cattleya did notice this, but at the same time, she was also considering the 'Pirate Admiral' matter mentioned by the 'Emperor', so she didn't ask any related questions.
Just now, Alger also ignored this point because he recalled the 'Emperor's' powerful attack power. At this time, he was reminded by 'The World': "I remember, that seems to be the vanished capital city of the Solomon Empire."
Hobert smiled and said: "That's right, we found this lost city based on some clues."
'The World' asked again: "In what state does this city currently exist?"
"I can't say for sure either." Hobert said truthfully: "It seems to be in the real world, but it doesn't seem to be."
Alger asked further: "What is the scene inside like?"
"Similar to the outside world." Hobert briefly introduced: "But there are many monsters affected by the battle of the gods, and the periods of dawn, noon, dusk, and night are very short."
Everyone felt very novel about this description and tried to imagine what it would be like for a day and night to pass very quickly.
Klein and Alger and Cattleya could all hear that the 'Emperor's' answer to this city was quite restrained, almost answering whatever was asked.
They guessed that perhaps some detailed information was a secret of their organization and could not be disclosed, so they no longer continued to ask.
Then everyone began to share what they had seen and heard last week. Little Sun was already preparing to set off to the camp in Afternoon Town. Their first task was to clear the monsters around the Giant King's Court. After a few days of rest, they would explore the 'Giant King's Court.'
Leonard shared his experiences at the gathering for the first time: "In the previous ten days, a huge change occurred in Backlund!"
"First of all, the gas industry used despicable means to frame 'Earl's Light' and was defeated in the subsequent struggle. Everyone generally believes that Backlund will become a world of electric lights in a few months at the latest…"
Speaking of this, Leonard felt that 'The World,' that is, Klein, was looking at him strangely.
He quickly paused for a moment and didn't find anything wrong with what he had just said.
Leonard was not very familiar with the Berserk Sea, and had no concept of Hobert's territory at all. Although Cattleya had mentioned that the port of Longtail Island had been renamed Tussock Port, he didn't take it to heart.
So at this time, Leonard had not completely equated Hobert with the 'Emperor'. He was more inclined to believe that the 'Emperor' and Hobert were colleagues, because in his contact with Hobert, Hobert had never shown a knowledgeable side.
Leonard cleared his throat and said again: "Another piece of news is that the Church has discovered that the royal family seems to be secretly carrying out something? But after investigating for several days, they have not found the secret of the royal family."
Klein smiled: These two pieces of news, one is related to Hobert, and the other is related to me.
