Chapter 435

~10 min read 1,843 words

Starting from when he entered Red Tianebao, Lu Mian wrote everything that happened on paper without missing a single detail, only condensing the process of communication and extracting the key meaning.

He felt that the underground labyrinth of the Solomon family obviously hid very important secrets, and he was worried that his knowledge was not enough, treating problematic places as normal and ignoring them, so he simply copied it as it was, letting Ms. "Magician" judge for herself.

It took a full half hour for Lu Mian to finish writing this letter.

He then pulled the curtains, held a ceremony, and summoned the "Doll" messenger.

After waiting for nearly twenty minutes, the messenger sent back two sheets of letter paper folded into squares.

*There are actually two pages, quite valued... * Lu Mian weighed it and muttered silently while unfolding it.

"Gardner Martin's words are not problematic. The so-called 'Wax Artist' and mutated black spider are just strengthened humanoid lions and hunting black spiders, possessing the Beyonder characteristics of the previous sequences. The only thing he didn't say is that the heart will not only cause a certain impact on your promotion, but because it comes from a special ritual, it will cause the Beyonder who uses it to promote to fuse a little of the Solomon family's bloodline, possibly falling into the trouble of the curse. Of course, for you, there is nothing to worry about. You didn't have any problems when you became the emperor in the King Cake game, so why be afraid of this?

"That little bit of the Solomon family's bloodline might even play an unknown role at certain times."

*Unknown role... Is Ms. 'Magician' implying what she saw when 'astrologizing'? If I really use that shriveled heart to prepare the potion, I will not only have a little aura of the 'Blood Emperor' on me, but also a little bloodline of the Solomon family. What kind of hodgepodge is this? * Lu Mian mocked himself mercilessly.

*If some Einhorn bloodline were added, Lu Mian wouldn't dare to imagine whether he was considered talented in the 'Hunter' pathway or a pile of garbage. *

After muttering a few words, Lu Mian continued reading:

"Your adventure this time has been very fruitful. Combined with what you experienced, saw, heard, and the encounters in the previous two King Cake games, I initially judge that the powerful angel from two hundred years ago, Vormunda Champagne Solomon, is still alive, somewhere in the depths of the underground of that hall, sealed together by the bronze coffin, white candles, iron-black ring, blood-colored spring water, and those hearts taken out by core members of the Solomon family through special rituals. Even the entire underground labyrinth is connected to a dangerous sealed artifact and is a part of it, all to limit Vormunda Solomon's activities to the greatest extent.

"This is the first victim of the Solomon family's curse. Why did he suddenly disappear, why did he enter the underground, why has he been alive, affecting generation after generation of Red Tianebao and the Solomon family, making them crazy? These are the key matters that need to be figured out later, and this is the real reason for the decline of the Solomon family.

"This is too dangerous for you. With your sequence, it is difficult to investigate. Just as you experienced, even if you just hear Vormunda Solomon's voice truly, you will briefly lose yourself, leave in a daze, and accept the reshaping of the 'Wax Artist,' unable to truly approach that bronze coffin and the seal it presses.

"Of course, after you have a little of the Solomon family's bloodline and have mastered the special ritual that Pu Yifu Solomon once accepted, you might have a chance to enter that hall. But in general, before you are ready to promote to Sequence 4 and touch the gate of divinity, I do not suggest you try to take risks. If Gardner Martin has similar tasks again, just do them perfunctorily.

"Based on your contribution, next time you need a potion formula or certain materials, you can come directly to me, and there will be a big discount."

*Angel? * Seeing this, Lu Mian's eyelids twitched.

*That mysteriously disappeared ancestor of the Solomon family, Vormunda, is actually a powerful angel! *

*The voice that made him lose himself instantly and almost faint came from a true mythical creature! *

*And, that angel is still in complete madness and needs to be sealed. *

*The underground labyrinth of the Solomon family is really a dangerous place, but there are also a lot of 'treasures'... * Lu Mian muttered with a bit of lingering fear and a bit of anticipation.

In fact, without Ms. "Magician's" suggestion, he didn't want to risk approaching that hall with the bronze coffin again.

*What if Pu Yifu Solomon is waiting on the side next time, and while he loses himself, kills him directly? *

*The task of investigating the reason for the decline of the Solomon family seems to have to wait until he is more powerful to go further. *

Of course, Gardner Martin can also go himself, or ask the vice presidents of the "Iron and Blood Cross Order" for help.

After digesting these contents, Lu Mian exhaled and read the latter part of the letter:

"Albus Medici is indeed not as simple as he appears on the surface, just a member of the 'Iron and Blood Cross Order.' This surname itself can explain many problems.

"In ancient times, before Alista Tudor became the 'Red Priest,' the 'God of War' had another name, which was one of the eight Kings of Angels who once followed the 'Ancient Sun God,' the 'Red Angel' or 'War Angel' Medici.

"One of his responsibilities at the beginning was to look after and teach Amon."

*King of Angels... What is the difference compared to angels in the normal context? That 'Ancient Sun God' really has a great influence on later generations. The one worshipped by the 'Aurora Order,' some of the seven orthodox gods, Amon, the previous 'God of War' Medici... * Lu Mian fell into recollection, discovering that many problems in the current era might be left over from two or three thousand years ago, related to the fall of that 'Ancient Sun God.'

This aroused his curiosity, making him read the remaining content more attentively than just now:

"The 'Red Angel' Medici and the oldest ancestors of the Solomon family and the Einhorn family died at the same time under the joint efforts of Alista Tudor and his great nobles, achieving the birth of the 'Red Priest.' But after the 'Blood Emperor' fell, the Solomon family and the Einhorn family both recovered the Beyonder characteristics that originally belonged to them.

"Kings of Angels are not so easy to die completely. The 'Red Angel' and Solomon and Einhorn for some reason became powerful evil spirits, evil spirits mixed together. Just in the past few years, this evil spirit found a way to get rid of regional restrictions, escaped from the place of birth, and its whereabouts are unknown.

"The 'Red Angel' Medici has many descendants and established a secret angel family. Most of them lived in Bansi Harbor—yes, the Bansi Harbor I mentioned that suffered severe pollution and was directly destroyed by the Storm Church. However, in the one or two thousand years before this, members of the Medici family left the island one after another and returned to the Northern Continent. Albus Medici should be a direct descendant of one of these branches.

"It is reasonably suspected that Albus has already seen that evil spirit. Breaking the Solomon family's curse might be the wish of one part of the evil spirit, and the part belonging to the 'Red Angel' Medici should be coveting the accumulation of the Solomon family, and also wants to figure out what Vormunda Solomon encountered.

"As for why Albus appeared in the Sacred Heart Monastery, it might be that the evil spirit behind him or the 'Iron and Blood Cross Order' sensed that there was a problem there and sent him to find a reason to contact the monks openly and collect information.

"Don't worry, Ms. 'Justice' and Susie are watching there."

*Sacred Heart Monastery has a problem... * Lu Mian didn't expect that the largest monastery of the "Eternal Blazing Sun" Church in Trier would actually have a problem, but Ms. "Magician's" words pointed out this situation very clearly.

When he guessed the reason for Albus's appearance at the Sacred Heart Monastery before, he analyzed a lot but didn't think about the Sacred Heart Monastery itself having a problem, just feeling that Gardner Martin might hope to understand certain things there and grasp the tendencies and attitudes of some factions of the "Eternal Blazing Sun" Church.

Combined with Ms. "Magician" saying last time that someone in the "Tarot Club" was watching a clue, Lu Mian suspected that the problem of the Sacred Heart Monastery might involve evil god worship!

*"The disaster that is still brewing is really not small..."* Lu Mian's sense of urgency became a bit stronger.

At the end of the letter, Ms. "Magician" wrote:

"Gardner Martin being able to 'see' certain things in the underground labyrinth might be related to him bearing the pollution of 13 Market Avenue, or it might be using the item smuggled in through the 'rats' before. As for what it specifically is, I don't know either.

"You should take the potion recently and promote to Sequence 6. Later, if the disaster is not successfully prevented, you should take the Holy Grail II and your friends to teleport away from Trier, or go to Mr. 'Fool's' church to take refuge."

After reading this reply, Lu Mian pondered for a while and watched it be swallowed by the crimson flames quietly.

…………

3 White Shirt Street, Apartment 601.

Franca, wearing a cotton shirt and light-colored trousers, saw Lu Mian outside the door and asked with slight surprise:

"Pu Yifu Solomon's dinner has just begun, right?"

*Why are you back already? *

"I went to the underground labyrinth of Red Tianebao to adventure this afternoon and had quite a harvest," Lu Mian entered the room with a smile and closed the door, "Now I'm looking for you to help with something."

"What harvest? What help?" Franca was curious and confused.

Lu Mian only answered the latter question:

"Help me hold something. If my situation is a bit wrong after I take the potion, open it immediately."

"Take the potion?" Franca paused, "Your 'Pyromaniac' potion is digested?"

"Digested," Lu Mian nodded with a smile.

Franca asked instinctively:

"Your 'Conspirer' potion materials are collected?"

"Collected," Lu Mian answered with a smile.

"..." Franca couldn't help but mutter, "You've only been out for an afternoon, how come it's like you've been out for two or three weeks..."

*Not only was the 'Pyromaniac' potion thoroughly digested, but the vast majority of materials for the subsequent potion were also obtained! *

Lu Mian said very sincerely:

"This has to thank nature, no, the gift of Pu Yifu Solomon."
