Notes and Fog and Notes

When the danger warnings keep increasing, and your teammates are still dragging their feet.

Xia Er abandoned these burdens and broke away from the group, kicking open the door of the sealed warehouse.

He immediately spotted Riel Bieber, who was holding the Antigonus Family Notes and attempting to absorb their mysterious power through some kind of mysterious ritual.

Xia Er didn't give the other party a chance to develop. He directly smashed the glass bottle containing the sealed item 3-089, bit the bone china spoon inside, and infused it with spiritual energy.

One of the three obsidian stones inlaid in the spoon handle lit up, and Shael's pupils became somewhat vertical, equivalent to the mental shock released by the audience's Sequence 7 psychologist locking onto Riel Bieber.

Roar!

Riel Bieber seemed to see a ferocious dragon roaring angrily at him.

He was affected by the semi-sleep state he had entered due to the ceremony, and his consciousness gradually returned. Seeing the extraordinary beings violently breaking in, he was filled with fear and became flustered.

Originally, he unconsciously sensed the approaching danger and was about to swallow the notebook to accelerate his power absorption, but this action was interrupted.

boom!

In the instant his opponent lost his composure, Shael shot Riel Bieber in the black notebook he was holding. The Antigonus family notebook flew out of his hand, and Riel Bieber, gripped by terror, suddenly went berserk, gaining precognitive abilities and dodging Shael's subsequent shots.

He lunged at the Antigonus family's notes as if he wanted to devour them whole.

boom!boom!

The notebook was repeatedly knocked away by bullets.

Seeing Riel Bieber on the verge of losing control, Xia Er picked up a steel pipe piled up in the warehouse. The third obsidian on the spoon in his mouth glowed faintly, and his arm trembled slightly with excitement... He rushed over and gave his patient a psychological treatment.

Riel Bieber went berserk, and his body began to swell abnormally, a sign of supernatural loss of control.

A smile crept across Xia'er's lips, and her aura turned dangerous.

When Al Hassan rushed over, he saw Riel Bieber with both hands broken.

This descendant of the Antigonus family frantically tried to snatch back the notebook from Chael's hands, but each blind charge was met with a heavy steel pipe that sent him crashing back.

Al-Hassen slowed his pace and began to recite a beautiful poem:

"Every time the sun sets in the west"

"Dewdrops adorn the hem of dusk's garment."

...

Evening primroses nourished by the night dew

"It blossomed into an elegant and delicate flower."

The midnight poet's chanting calmed the irrational Riel Bieber down a bit. Xia Er, with a spoon in his mouth, smacked the guy on the back with a stick and added a soothing blow, knocking him completely unconscious.

"Done, job done."

Chael threw the steel pipe in his hand to the ground.

He tried to smile, but only managed a stiff twitch at the corner of his mouth.

He lost his joy.

According to the negative effects of the sealed item "3-089", it may take 12 hours to recover.

"What's going on?"

Al Hassen walked up and looked at Riel Bieber, who was lying on the ground in a rather pitiful state, and asked.

"He probably sensed danger and wanted to eat the book."

"I went a little too far; he was affected by the power of this notebook, like a half-extraordinary being."

As he spoke, Xia Er stroked the surface of the notebook, noting that even bullets hadn't pierced its cover.

Riel Bieber attempted to absorb the residual power of Antigonus within the ritual recorded in this notebook.

Because of his lineage as a descendant of Antigonus, he did not die directly, but he was also affected by the power of the notebook and was on the verge of losing control until he was saved by a heavy blow from Shael, which was mixed with mental soothing.

"So these are the descendants of the great nobles of the Tudor Dynasty? They don't look very impressive."

As he spoke, he crouched down to look at Riel Bieber. His features and demeanor were quite ordinary, perhaps because his beard was shaved clean, making him look unlike a descendant of a wolf.

Chael had to admit that the main reason he saved this guy's life was for stamp collecting.

The descendants of the five great nobles of the Tudor dynasty are quite valuable for collectors.

This might be the last descendant of the demon wolf; it's a pity he died.

What if it's still somewhat useful?

Looking at Xia Er, who had already started "looting the corpse," El Hassen didn't know what to say for a moment. Should he blame the other for being impulsive and reckless and not following orders?

but...

If it weren't for Chael rushing in in time to subdue Riel Bieber, and Mr. Bobby swallowing the Antigonus family notes...

They might be facing a terrifying, out-of-control monster, and even with the presence of the Secret Order members outside, there could still be casualties.

"There are still members of the Secret Order outside. You stay here and watch over this guy and this notebook. Don't go out easily. Be careful, understand?"

Al Hassen gave Xia Er a word of advice, then turned and left the warehouse to return and support Dunn.

"let me see."

Seeing that no one would bother him for the time being, Xia Er opened the Antigonus family notes and began to read them quickly. The language in the notes did not pose a problem for him.

The interpretation of the notes is not complicated.

He was responsible for recording and interpreting the information, which was then passed on to his past self.

"The Fool's Path potion recipes, the crafting methods for various Fool's Path talismans, and the whereabouts of the Antigonus treasure."

Xia Er read quietly, his eyes gradually becoming vacant. He raised his pistol and pointed it at his temple. Before pulling the trigger, a ghostly green flashed in his eyes. With the help of the vengeful spirit, he forcibly broke free from the state of being controlled.

"That's interesting."

Chael continued scrolling down, then suddenly her fingers paused slightly.

He witnessed some interesting occult rituals.

"By praying to those in high positions, and by drawing upon higher powers, the projection of the 'Kingdom of God' is superimposed on the real world."

"This ritual... it feels a bit like the Fool's Path Sequence 1 advancement ritual?"

As Xia Er continued reading, he came across the ritual by which Riel Bieber absorbed the extraordinary power from the notebook.

With his insight, he could tell that this ritual had a touch of the Second Age.

The way vampires inherit their estates bears a subtle resemblance to this.

These were all accumulated and experimented upon by various extraordinary races before the potion system became widespread.

......

The Fourth Age.

"Half-Angel" Xia Er closed his eyes as he analyzed this occult ritual.

He briefly simulated the effect of the ritual and then had a bit of inspiration.

This ritual seems to be somewhat effective.

......

Inside the dock warehouse.

Looking at the unconscious Riel Bieber and the Antigonus Notebook in his hand, Xia Er made a decision.

"This is at least a Level 1 sealed artifact, containing remnants of Antigonus's power."

"If An Banyu hadn't been sealed by the Goddess of Night, he might have been able to borrow half of the Fool's power."

"It's a bit of a waste to hand it over to the church. They don't know how to use it, and they might even be harmed by the power of the notes."

Shael turned around, his back to the door, holding the Antigonus family notes in one hand and his own notebook that he always carried with him in the other. His fingers lightly traced the notes of the Fourth Epoch, and his magical ability to turn paper into paper took effect. Several pages fell off the notes naturally without leaving any trace of tearing.

He pasted those pages into his notebook, then, holding both notebooks, stood where Riel Bieber had just performed the occult ritual. He first used ritual magic to draw out the power inherent in the notebooks to erase traces of the occult.

After creating a hidden environment.

Chael bowed his head, praying silently:

"A fool who doesn't belong to this era."

"You are the mysterious ruler above the gray fog."

"You are the king of yellow and black who holds the key to good fortune."

"I pray for your power, I pray that you grant me the power to transform my spirit."

As Chael prayed, a crimson star, symbolizing Chael, lit up above the gray fog.

The message was either automatically responded to or automatically withdrawn by Xia'er's Crimson Star.

He did not disturb Klein, who was fighting the Secret Order.
