Chapter 64 Sound

After hearing High Priest Nim's answer, Klein carried the lantern and walked twenty or thirty steps to the right along the gray mist.

Then, he closed his eyes halfway, as if he was sensing something, which made the Moon City Beyonders who were following behind him not dare to make a sound at all, for fear of disturbing the divine envoy.

After four or five seconds, Klein stretched out his right hand and slowly grabbed the air in front of him.

A stone altar then fell from nothingness into reality, on which three candles made of grease and seven or eight kinds of spiritual materials were placed.

As a Sequence 4 demigod, Nim was startled for a moment, as if he didn't believe his eyes.

He had watched Gehrman Sparrow take out his cane and heal his companion, but he just thought that the other party had the ability in space or was favored by the Mr. Fool, but now, his judgment was completely overturned, because The altar, the candles, and the spiritual materials were all familiar to him.

It's all he's used!

How could he get out of the things I've used? Is this a force from history, from time? Nim recalled some of the remnants of Yuecheng's ancient books, combined with his own knowledge of demigods, and initially had some guesses.

At this time, Klein turned around and looked at the high priest and said:

"You can start."

Nim quietly took a breath, and under the watchful eyes of Adal, Xin, Ruth, and others, he walked to the altar step by step, creating a wall of spirituality.

He glanced at the symbols, logos and patterns engraved on the altar, and after confirming that there was no problem, he followed the process that had been engraved in his memory and performed the ceremony very skillfully.

At the end, he buried his head and recited in a low voice:

"The eternal mist;

"The barrier of frozen time and space;

"Existence that embraces everything..."

Before the prayer was over, Klein had already focused his attention on the grayish-white fog, hoping to hear voices coming from the depths.

For this reason, he scattered a large number of monster marionettes that were secretly controlled and walked in the surrounding darkness, and placed one at a distance, so as not to miss any suspicious traces.

But until the ceremony is completed,

He didn't notice anything unusual.

After waiting for a while, Klein turned his attention to Nim, the high priest of Moon City, and said plainly:

"Again."

…………

Backlund, Queens, in Hall's study.

After getting permission, Audrey pushed open the door and walked in. Her father Earl Hall and brother Hibbert were discussing something.

"Oh, baby, your face doesn't seem very good?" Earl Hall turned his eyes to the door.

Audrey didn't need to act, she smiled reluctantly and said:

"There is a big shortage of food for the poverty relief fund. I want to raise some more. I visited many nobles today, but they all told me that there is no excess food, even if I buy it with gold pounds."

When they said these words, the nobles were either in the small living room or in the place dedicated to afternoon tea, with high-quality black tea and a variety of exquisite desserts in front of them, and they asked Audrey from time to time to comment on the pastry chef at home. cooking.

Their servants were ruddy and walked very lightly, making little noise so as not to disturb the distinguished guests.

"The situation now..." Earl Hall sighed after hearing this.

Audrey thought for a while and said seriously:

"Dad, I remember that there should be a lot of food at home. Can I buy some of it with money?"

"Audrey, you've done too much, you don't need to do this anymore." Hibbert Hall frowned slightly and said, while Audrey just looked at her father and didn't say anything to her brother's words. respond.

Earl Hall's expression that was relieved by the arrival of his daughter slowly became serious:

"Audrey, the premise of charity is not to affect the lives of yourself and your family. This is a principle I hope you keep in mind."

Audrey, who was wearing a long gold and white dress, frowned slightly and stretched out, and said sincerely:

"Dad, the food stockpiled at home is enough for everyone in this house to eat for a whole year, or more, and there is also a lot of food in East Chester County."

Because Winter County has not yet completely fallen, the Feysac army that invaded through Midsea County did not attack East Chester County, and the Feysac, Intis, and Fenepot fleets at sea were attacked by several of Loen's fleets. The iron armored fleet was suppressed, and it could only reluctantly deal with it to protect the supply line at sea.

Earl Hall looked at his daughter's eyes as green as gems for a few seconds, then suddenly sighed and smiled:

"Audrey, you have really grown up and have your own ideas and good persistence.

"However, none of us know how long this war will last or what the final outcome will be, and a lot of food must be set aside to deal with all this.

"I can help those in need by accepting two less delicious dishes at every meal, but I don't want to make my table look like the middle-class ones that the newspapers say it will take away from us completely as aristocrats. decency, something we have stuck with every generation.

"Do you understand what I mean? I just made a metaphor just now. The essence of the matter is that I pay more attention to the existence and future of the family, and pay attention to our identity and status. Only when it does not affect them can I show my of love and kindness.

"Audrey, what I said may be cruel, but you have grown up, it's time to listen to it, everyone is selfish, just to different degrees, in my heart, the importance of the entire Hall family is More than me and your mother, more than you, more than Hibbert and Alfred, beyond these, first is faith and good friends, second is acquaintances, and finally is all over Backlund and needs relief.

"I don't mind helping them if it doesn't affect those in front, but unfortunately I have to think about more things now."

Having said this, Earl Hall shook his head mockingly:

"I'm sorry to let you know that your father is such a selfish person."

While Audrey was listening intently to her father's words, her expression changed slightly at first, but then disappeared, and until the end, there was no additional emotion.

At this moment, she was silent for a while, and asked again:

"...But we've already got so much more than we need, can't we even take a part out of it?"

Hibbert Hall interjected angrily:

"Why share what we've earned with others?

"This is produced in our fields, pastures, and woodlands. This is what we bought with gold pounds. The money and assets are handed down by the family. It was earned by my father with precise vision and strong courage. It is a generational accumulated by another generation.

"We do charity to help others to show extra love, not that we have to do it, understand?"

Earl Hall nodded:

"What Hibbert said is generally fine, and that's what I think."

Audrey pursed her lips and nodded slowly:

"I see……"

Earl Hall retracted his gaze and said to Hibbert:

"The hoarded food must be guarded well. If the outcome of the war is really irreversible, try to contact the guys from Intis and show our sincerity.

"The battlefield has lasted for so long, and many of them have died. Many fields have been abandoned, and urban prices have skyrocketed. There must be a strong demand for food, pastures, and woodlands. In addition, I am in Intis Suhit. The shares of the bank, as well as some of the shares of Bavart Bank and Backlund Bank, should be able to buy them, hehe, at this time, only after meeting this requirement can we talk about kinship."

Intis and Loen often have marriages, and many nobles are relatives, especially steam believers.

"Dad, are you considering surrendering?" Hibbert asked in surprise.

Earl Hall nodded lightly and sighed again:

"In this situation, how could I not consider it?

"At that time, you will be the new Earl of Hall."

Heber was heartbroken and puzzled when he heard it:

"Dad, how about you?"

Earl Hall replied with a wry smile:

"Your mother and I are both devout believers and have a certain position in the church. When Loen falls and the church is destroyed, if we are not willing to leave the front desk, the ending will not be good."

Having said this, he comforted the eldest son:

"As long as the Hall family is still there, the title is still there, and the loss of core assets is not much, we will not have a miserable old age. After you convert to steam, remember to prepare a secret prayer room for us at home."

During the conversation between the two, Audrey, who was wearing a long gold and white dress at the door, watched and listened quietly, her green eyes like gems.

…………

After trying again and again, with the disappearance of the altar projection, Moon City High Priest Nim considered Gehrman Sparrow, who mentioned the strange lantern, and said:

"It doesn't seem to work today. You can try again tomorrow. It will not exceed two months at most."

At this moment, Klein was thinking about another question:

Could it be the perfunctory use of historical pore images that caused the ceremony to fail?

He deeply examined himself, and decided to listen to the words of the High Priest of Yuecheng, and try again tomorrow. At that time, he must let the other party bring the real materials.

Just as he was about to nod his head, a faint voice suddenly sounded in his ears.

The voice came from the depths of the gray-white fog, layer upon layer, faint and extremely vague.

Has it worked? This ceremony is really effective, but the delay is too high... Klein was overjoyed, immediately raised his right hand, pressed down slightly, and signaled the Beyonders in Moon City not to speak.

He immediately held his breath, collected his thoughts, and began to listen intently.

The sound that echoed in the gray-white mist seemed to come from multiple different objects, intertwined, sometimes interfering with each other, canceling each other out, sometimes overlapping, and resonating.

Gradually, the voice became clearer in Klein's ears, especially when it resonated.

It seemed to be a language he was familiar with, and it seemed that countless people were chanting a name together.

That name is:

"Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun".
