Chapter 31 The First Mission

For Patrick Bryan's answer, Klein didn't feel the slightest surprise, nodded lightly and said:

"Is this your first life?"

As far as he knows, the "undead" will die and resurrect once every sixty years, and forget most of the past memories, which need to be retrieved slowly later, just like starting a new life.

This belongs to the knowledge that comes with the Potion Association. Patrick Bryan easily understood the meaning of the favored man opposite him, and said after considering the words:

"I'm not yet 50, and it's been less than 10 years since I became an 'undead'."

Klein took the opportunity to ask:

"When did you convert to my Lord?"

The "lord" here refers to the lord of the underworld.

Bryan recalled for two or three seconds and said:

"At that time, I had just celebrated my 30th birthday."

He only stepped into the mysterious world at the age of 30, embarked on the path of extraordinary, and became a demigod of Sequence 4 before he was 40... This speed is not because the talent is amazing, but it means that he is likely to be the favored of the gods... Oh, sure enough, he was there During this ceremony, both the spirit and body were affected by the "uniqueness" of the "Death God" pathway... Klein thought as he listened, and became more certain about his previous guess.

Of course, compared to his transformation from an ordinary person to a Sequence 4 demigod in just one year, Patrick Bryan's promotion speed is nothing to mention.

Regarding this point, Klein doesn't think there is anything to sigh about, because he is indeed a "God's Favored One", and there are more than one cheats.

The only problem is that the current rewards for those gifts are not known to be enough.

After pondering for a moment, Klein turned to ask:

"What is your current identity on the surface?"

"I'm a businessman. I've run two garment factories in Backlund. I believe in the Evernight Goddess on the surface, and I'm a supporter of the New Party..." Patrick Bryan introduced.

Klein almost made a "heh" sound, and continued to ask:

"How many members of the Lingjiao group do you have, and what are they doing?"

Bryan answered fluently in preparation:

"Two teams, twelve Extraordinary people, some of them work in my garment factory, some work in the watch shop, each has a formal occupation.

"Under normal circumstances, they will carefully spread the belief of God around them. The progress in this regard is very slow, and it is not the main purpose. The total number of believers does not exceed one hundred.

"Most of the time, they are collecting clues of various things left by the gods, as well as different materials needed for the awakening ceremony.

"With clues, we will start some actions accordingly. After the materials are ready, we will experiment with different awakening ceremonies to find the most effective one. I am the host of the action and the core element of the ceremony."

It still sounds very proud... Klein asked about other things and got detailed answers.

Finally, after thinking for a while, he said with a serious expression:

"Follow God's orders, from now on, you obey my orders."

Patrick Bryan got up immediately and bowed solemnly:

"Yes, Your Excellency."

Klein nodded slightly and said:

"The first point is to stop all kinds of rituals and no longer collect materials. God has initially awakened and is in the recovery stage. No loud 'voices' can disturb Him."

In Klein's view, no matter how the form of Brian's awakening ceremony changes, it will ultimately point to the artificial God of Death, that is, the "uniqueness" of the "God of Death" pathway. master.

Regardless of whether Klein is happy to see a similar situation happen, since the "Evernight Goddess" has asked Bryan to come over, he has no choice but to make such an arrangement.

Patrick Bryan has no doubts about his words, because "Reaper" has indeed awakened, and the essence of "awakening" itself is "disturbing".

The "undead" thought for a while, and asked proactively:

"My lord, what do we need to do next?"

Klein praised and smiled:

"Continue to look for clues to the things left by God, which will help Him recover faster."

Speaking of this, Klein was about to make a second request, but because he was worried that there were too few similar clues, the members of the Spiritual Cult would find nothing to do and cause other situations, so he added another sentence:

"In addition, you and your subordinates should carry out extensive literacy and reading activities in the garment factory and other areas of your own activities, and set up night schools or study classes to free the people around you from ignorance and barbarism."

In order to strengthen his persuasiveness, Klein stretched out his right hand to press his chest, and began to preach very piously:

"God said that you must understand what you believe before you can believe.

"God said that for those who are confused, they must first strengthen their bodies and arm their minds, because the kingdom He promised is free from barbarism and ignorance."

Patrick Bryan didn't question Dwayne Dantès' words. It's no wonder why these two sentences were not recorded in the scriptures of the Spiritual Religion, because the other party is the favored person of the gods and the appointed representative of the gods!

He nodded sincerely:

"I will keep God's teachings in mind.

"May every spirit live forever in the kingdom of God!"

While speaking, he used the current prayer posture of the artificial death sect of the spiritual sect, which is to raise his hands high, with his thumbs facing each other, and resting on the center of his forehead.

——In the corresponding occult theory, this is the core of the underworld in each "gatekeeper", referring to the position of the god of death.

Klein returned the same gesture and words, and then said:

"Second point, no matter who the order from the Southern Continent comes from, you must first submit it to me and get my permission before you can do it. If you don't allow it, you can't do it in private, you can only follow my instructions Meant to give feedback."

He was worried that Haitel, the High Priest, an angel in the realm of death, was still enthusiastic about the artificial death plan, and would instruct Patrick and others to make new attempts from time to time.

At the same time, he had to ensure that before the goddess further grasped the "uniqueness" of the "Death God" pathway, Haitel and the other two saints would not be aware of the clues, so as to prevent them from reacting violently.

Bryan still has no objection to this:

"Yes, Your Excellency!"

After ordering the two most important things, Klein remained unchanged on the surface, but relaxed a little inwardly, and said after deliberation:

"The third point, unless I summon you, you must not take the initiative to come to me, and the usual contact is done through a messenger.

"You know, many beings in the astral world are unwilling to see God recover."

Patrick Bryan nodded heavily and said:

"I see.

"My messenger's call is 'the spirit that roams the upper world, an absolutely friendly creature, Patrick Bryan's contract partner'."

Sure enough, it is impossible for a demigod of the "Reaper" pathway to have a messenger... Normally, a Sequence 6 of this pathway would be able to have it... Klein did not hesitate, and said at a moderate speed:

"Remember, my messenger's summoning word is 'a spirit wandering in the void, a friendly creature that can be driven, a messenger that belongs exclusively to Gehrman Sparrow', well, no matter receiving or sending letters, A gold coin needs to be given to complete the agreement."

Klein intentionally revealed the connection between Gehrman Sparrow and Dwayne Dantès, mainly to see how the other party would react.

"Gehrman Sparrow..." Patrick Bryan repeated the name in doubt, and then he was a little stunned, and asked in surprise, "His Royal Highness the Death Consul?"

Fortunately, although it is a by-product of the ceremony and has a fanatical belief, at least it has a normal IQ, can consciously collect information, and complete the analysis of the problem... Klein heaved a sigh of relief, and responded with a smile:

"I am not, He is my teacher."

Brian nodded thoughtfully, feeling that he had a clear grasp of the whole matter.

Klein could guess what he was thinking, but he ignored it. He crossed his right leg, clasped his hands on his knees, and asked instead:

"What do you know about the other factions of the Spiritual Order?"

Patrick Bryan sat down again and said:

"The most powerful branch within the Spiritual Cult is the Royal Faction. They have created multiple organizations with the descendants of God at their core...

"Their leader is currently a descendant of a god with a thinner bloodline, called Sia Palenque Eggers. She may be an angel, or she may be in charge of an important relic of the god. She calls herself the 'Pale Queen'...

"Besides her, there are five saints in the Royal Faction, some are real demigods, some rely on sealed items...

"Except for the Royal Faction and us, the rest of the branches are weaker. There are mainly the Sleep Sect and the Underworld Faction...they only have three strong men who are as strong as saints..."

After Bryan finished speaking, Klein nodded invisibly and said:

"Let's stop here today, and if you have anything to do later, please contact me."

"Yes, Your Excellency." Patrick Bryan got up and saluted, and retreated to the door.

The door of the room opened silently, and there were a lot of "people" outside, and the wind was blowing.

After everything calmed down, Klein glanced at the closed wooden door, walked to the window, opened the curtain, and looked at the street.

Several carriages appeared there at some point, and two horse lanterns were hung in front of each one. The light of the horse lanterns was unusually pale and green, blurring the surroundings.

In such a blurry scene, near-transparent figures clustered around the sides, front and rear, all wearing dress-like illusory clothes, appearing quite formal.

When Patrick Bryan landed from the mid-air and returned there, those figures crawled at the same time, and greeted the demigod and the spirit beside him boarded the few carriages that could only be seen faintly, and then hugged the convoy and drove into the distance .

The pale green light gradually faded, and finally disappeared into the darkness, as if it had never appeared before.

Klein withdrew his gaze, and said to himself in his heart with a slightly solemn expression:

"Although the fact that Patrick Bryan received the oracle stems from the goddess' considerations from various perspectives, I always feel that the undercurrent in Backlund and even the entire world is getting more and more turbulent.

"I don't know when, they will make waves..."

Thinking of this, Klein didn't delay, and decided to contact the witch Triss immediately to confirm that there was no mutation there.
