His manuscripts of plagiarism. No, his manuscript of creativity should be considered a very valuable bookā¦ Could that bookmark be a Card of Blasphemy? Kleinās heart skipped a beat, lightly tapped his molars, and quietly activated his Spirit Vision.
However, he didnāt find anything abnormal.
He then scanned the other bookmarks and obtained the same answer.
Thatās right, if itās that easy to detect it, it wouldnāt have remained till this day for me to have this thoughtā¦ Klein deactivated his Spirit Vision, and once again, he thought via method of elimination, based on the details he had learned from Roselleās diary and the personality the Emperor had shown.
As far as he could tell, since Roselle had said that the book with the Card of Blasphemy was valuable, it couldnāt be too ordinary, or it wouldnāt satisfy his sense of warped humorāto use lots of valuable knowledge to serve as a foil for an unobtrusive bookmark would be a form of teasing the recipient of the book.
Thus, books with value but arenāt of great value can be ignored. In that caseā¦ Klein looked around, trying to make sense of it, completely turning a deaf ear to what the guide was saying.
In summary, in the entire study, the only book that fulfills these conditions is that manuscript of creativity. The others are only ordinary in value. With Roselleās personality, he definitely wouldnāt choose them. Yes, Roselle is the kind of person who would claim āIāll hide the secret in the most obvious place, but none of you can find itāā¦ As Klein imagined this, he added a cackling expression to the Emperor in his mind.
Of course, thereās no way he could confirm that the bookmark was the disguised Card of Blasphemy because the books Roselle had, which were of great value, clearly included those in the field of mysticism. And those books were definitely not going to be put on display by the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery!
Yes, I have to first confirm if itās the Card of Blasphemy before considering if I should take actionā¦ Unfortunately, I canāt use the date 20th January as a method of elimination. No one knows which bookmark is placed into which book on and on which dayā¦ Klein silently muttered to himself and turned to look towards the guide. He asked with a smile, āDo the books on the shelf also have things stuffed in between them?
āFor example, a note written by some noble lady to Roselle.ā
This question made many men give a knowing chuckle. The female guide shook her head and said, āNo, there arenāt any. The books that contain other items have all been taken out and placed here for everyone to see.
āThis is just a restoration of Emperor Roselleās study, not the restoration of a particular point in time. There is no need to maintain an immutable state.ā
Klein laughed and said immediately, āI understand, this sure is disappointingā¦ā
Thatās simply great! Thereās only one bookmark in the entire exhibition hall that requires verification. The difficulty has greatly fallenā¦ he added happily in his heart.
As the guide introduced āRoselleās Favorite Books,ā Klein looked around the room again, taking in the overall layout.
To restore the room from more than a century ago, there were no gas lamps around the room.
The lighting mainly relied on the iron-barred oriel windows that were a few meters away and the huge crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling.
As for the brass lamp on the desk, there were no candles installed. It was purely a decoration.
Looking out the oriel window, Klein saw the yellow, withered lawn and a straight, iron-black lamppost.
He took note of the location and turned his attention back to the book the female guide was introducing. In his mind, he began to analyze the feasibility of the theft.
Thereās one premise. According to Roselleās intentions, the various Churches and the ancient royal families wouldnāt wish for him to spread the Cards of Blasphemy and destroy the stable order that has been in place for more than a thousand years.
Therefore, if Iām an archbishop in charge of handling this matter, I will directly burn all of Roselleās items. If the Cards of Blasphemy can be destroyed so completely, the outcome will perfectly suit the thoughts of the deities. If the Cards of Blasphemy are difficult to be destroyed, they will definitely expose their abnormality after the burning.
Since Roselleās items still remain, that means that he used certain methods to make everyone, including the deities, believe that he had sent out all the Cards of Blasphemy without keeping a single one.
Of course, I canāt eliminate the possibility that some Churches or ancient families might attempt to use the Cards of Blasphemy to make up for their incomplete Beyonder pathways. But this possibility is very tiny. This is because it will give Roselle an opportunity to come up with a united front strategy. There wouldnāt be a need for him to go so far as to destroy the order by spreading the Cards of Blasphemy.
In that case, his diary will show a certain level of confidence and corresponding concern, and he definitely wouldnāt be left with pessimism to the point of only thinking of relying on that ancient secret organization.
Furthermore, itās been more than a hundred years. The Church of the God of Steam and Machinery, who has retained these remains, mustāve made numerous supplementary searches. Therefore, no one would believe that the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery remain hidden in here.
In other words, the security level of this exhibition wouldnāt be too high.
Besides, the most important point is that Backlund is currently under siege by the terror caused by the Devilās serial murders. The Beyonders of the three Churches must be sweeping through the entire city. The amount of manpower that the Machinery Hivemind Squad can afford to place at this unimportant exhibition would be extremely limited.
Yes, the thing most worthy of protection here is Roselleās diary. Many wild Beyonders worship the Emperor greatly. They believe that the book written with independently-created symbols must contain more profound mysteries. Thereās a motive to stealing them, and they have the ability to do so. Therefore, the guardsā focus will definitely be in that exhibition hall.
Iāll do a divination above the gray fog when Iām back to verify my analysis.
However, I have to first test if itās a Card of Blasphemy. Otherwise, I would be taking a certain risk and wasting tremendous effort only to steal an ordinary bookmark. If that happened, I might as well lie back in my grave! Yes, how should I verify it? It canāt wait till I infiltrate again, and I donāt have an opportunity to do so nowā¦ I have to find someone to helpā¦ I have to be careful! Kleinās followed behind the guide with a focused expression as though he was very attentive.
Miss Magician is an Apprentice. She is able to go through walls and doors. Itās like she possesses a Master Key, so sheās a good candidateā¦ However, sheās only Sequence 9. The mission of infiltrating to do the verification is way too dangerous for herā¦
Miss Xio? No, she wouldnāt be up to thisā¦ Let her get a thief to help? No, thatās wonāt do. There are Beyonder guards here. The thief would most likely get caught on the spot, which will expose the fact that someone is looking into Roselleās bookmarkā¦
Miss Sharron? Sheās powerful enough, and her state is suitable for this kind of quest, but the problem is that the Card of Blasphemy is a divine object that can make most Beyonders willing to kill. I still donāt trust her enoughā¦
ā¦
Klein thought, analyzing the helpers he could use.
Gradually, he had a candidate in mind: Miss Justice!
Is it possible for her to use her wealth and power as a noble to touch the bookmark, using her interest as an excuse? Hmm, there are plenty of opportunities. Furthermore, this method wonāt alarm anyone. It would be beneficial for me to sneak in and steal it in the futureā¦ The more Klein thought about it, the more he found it feasible.
As for the question of how to verify it, as the Card of Blasphemy possessed anti-divination and anti-prophecy characteristics, the only solution he could think of for the time being wasāto attempt to destroy the bookmark!
Doesnāt anti-divination and anti-prophecy mean that using a similar method on a particular object that hides a Card of Blasphemy would result in failure or interference? Wouldnāt that be tantamount to exposing itself?
What it really means is that even with the Card of Blasphemy, divining it will be equivalent to divining an ordinary object. The divination would result in something equivalent to the ordinary object.
In any case, I canāt figure out what āpasswordā the Emperor set. I can only use such a simple and crude method to confirm it. If the Card of Blasphemy can really be destroyed, then it only means that Iām temporarily unfated with itā¦ Yes, with the Emperorās liking, perhaps I can try an activation incantationā¦
He once joked in his diary, saying, āMy fortune is yours for the taking, but youāll have to find it first. I left everything I own at the ends of the Fog Sea,ā and the Card of Blasphemy is one of those treasures!
The activation incantation could be set to āOne Pieceā in ancient Hermes? Thatās not right. That way, there would be no one who can obtain anything, unless a second transmigrator appears. This isnāt in accordance with the Emperorās intention to create chaos and destroy order, so the corresponding word for āPirate Kingā was in either Hermes or ancient Hermes?
Klein slowly confirmed his thoughts, paying more and more attention to the layout of the exhibition hall.
Under the guidance of the female guide, they left the restored study and entered another exhibition hall.
When everything was over, and he was free to move around, Klein said, a little embarrassed, āExcuse me, but I would like to know where the washroom is? Upstairs?ā
āNo, thatās where our office is. If you follow this path until the end before turning left, you will see it.ā The female guide politely pointed in a direction.
Using this opportunity, Klein figured out the connections of the washroom and several large exhibition halls, and he sketched out a rough layout in his mind.
At noon, he left the Royal Museum without doing anything and returned to 15 Minsk Street.
Klein had originally wanted to instruct Miss Justice as The Fool, saying that his adorer needed help. But on second thought, he felt that it would ruin the image of Mr. Fool.
As an unfathomable figure, he has to appear calm and collected. He canāt always be helping his adorer. At the very least, he canāt be personally bringing up such matters, time and time againā¦ Klein thought for a moment and quickly worked out a solution.
He decided to pass on the image and voice of his āadorerāsā plea directly to Miss Justice.
In the process, Mr. Fool didnāt say anything!
Phew. Klein exhaled, drew the curtains, rubbed his cheeks, and began to pray to himself, āThe Fool that doesnāt belong to this era.
āThe mysterious ruler above the gray fog.
āThe King of Yellow and Black who wields good luck.
āI pray for your help.
āI hope that someone can help me touch the bookmark in Roselleās manuscript of creativity.
āHelp me inflict small and unnoticeable damage to it and tell me of its results. While doing so, one can recite the corresponding term for āPirate Kingā in Hermes or ancient Hermes.
āNo matter who helps me, even if there isnāt a reaction, I will be willing to pay them 500 pounds. This can be deducted from the 5,000 pounds that has not yet been paid.
āIf there is a reaction, I am willing to give more.ā
ā¦
After doing all of this, Klein waited for a moment before entering the gray fog, and he saw the scene of his prayer displayed on the screen of light.
After divining that āthe theft of the bookmark in the Royal Museumā involved a certain amount of danger but wasnāt too high, he extracted the plea, and added more of a āmosaicā effect to it. He also distorted his voice slightly, and he threw it into the illusory star that symbolized Miss Justice.
