Mystery: Start with the Reader

Under the "spiritual sky" composed of seven different colors of clear brilliance that contains endless knowledge, Abner and Audrey embarked on their adventure riding on a transformed "spiritual dragon".

Lights and shadows in the sea of ​​collective subconscious passed before their eyes from time to time. Some contained ancient memories burned by flames, while others carried the extreme pain of looking directly at the unspeakable...

In addition to the imprints from ancient times and ancestors, Audrey also saw admiring glances looking at her and the folk activities of worshiping the dragon.

Soon, they flew over the path Audrey took last time and approached a gray-white mountain with a mist-covered top, clear and blurry.

"It's in a certain cave in this mountain... But its appearance is a little different from when I came back... I can't find the mark I made last time..." Audrey, who was sitting on the back of the dragon, looked down. After looking at it for a long time, he frowned.

Abner was not surprised by this. After all, they were in the collective subconscious, and people's thoughts were changing all the time. It had been a week, so some differences were normal.

He thought for a while and took out two items from his pocket, one was a flattened gold wine cup, and the other was a tawny parchment book.

If Audrey had met the Queen of Disaster before, then these two items should have some connection with her.

Audrey was surprised when she saw the book with the words "Book of Natural Disasters" written in Elvish language, because it had been placed in the hands of Mr. Fool before.

In other words, Mr. "Fool" is actually paying attention to this expedition between E and Mr. "Ta"?

Thinking of this, Audrey's spirit perked up and she became even more excited.

As the spiritual blockade on the two items was lifted, both Abner and Audrey suddenly heard faint singing coming from the distance.

The song was ethereal and ethereal, like a lady singing slowly, telling her inner worries.

Abner unconsciously fell into some kind of strange hallucination. Pictures of his home being destroyed appeared before his eyes. Unspeakable sadness surged uncontrollably in his heart until the "Pure White Eyes" opened on their own. Only then did I block this feeling.

After taking a few deep breaths, Abner glanced at Audrey beside him and found that the emotional young lady had tears streaming down her face, but she was not indulging in them like he had just done.

Does this singing have a greater impact on me than on Audrey? Abner listened again thoughtfully.

But this time, he heard nothing, and the melodious singing seemed to never appear.

"I just remembered the death of my grandmother...it made you laugh." Audrey also recovered at this moment and wiped her tears with a handkerchief.

"It doesn't matter..." Abner waved his hand, then after observing with his "Pure White Eyes" for a while, he pointed to the left side of the mountain. "I found the source of that singing!~"

The singing just now was in Elvish. This language itself carries "power" and will inevitably leave traces in the process of dissemination...

And it is difficult for any trace to escape the detection of the "Pure White Eyes".

In this way, Abner and Audrey drove the embodied "spiritual dragon" and followed the "traces" caused by those sounds, and soon found the crystal that Audrey had described in the Tarot Club. In the cave.

No, it's more like a palace hidden in a cave than a cave.

In the center of the palace, a woman was sitting alone on the throne, looking in the direction of the cave entrance, as if waiting for something.

Approaching cautiously, Abner took a look at the woman and found that she was just as Miss Justice described her, with shiny black hair, delicate facial features, hollow eyes, soft contours, and was wearing a traditional and simple long dress. Skirts give people the feeling of being on top for a long time.

But at this moment, the woman's originally empty eyes suddenly became lively. She turned her head slightly and looked at the "Book of Natural Disasters" in Abner's hand.

"I...feel familiar..." the woman said word by word in Elvish.

She only felt that the "Book of Natural Disasters" was familiar, but turned a blind eye to the golden wine cup... If she was really Coshnam, it should be the part of the "Book of Natural Disasters" that was separated by Russell, rather than escaping from the golden wine cup on her own. that part of...

So, it was Russell who hid her here? Is this a bargaining chip to "coerce" me?

After making an initial judgment, Abner was very puzzled, but he still placed the "Book of Natural Disasters" in front of the woman and said gently: "I wonder if this book will be of use to you?"

The woman stared at the "Book of Natural Disasters" for a long time, and finally shook her head and said: "I can't remember more... I just feel familiar..."

Is this because Russell completely separated her from her original characteristics in the "Book of Natural Disasters" and severed the connection between the two at the information level? The authority of the "Emperor of Knowledge"?

With this thought in mind, Abner opened the "Pure White Eyes" again, preparing to observe the specific existence form of the woman in front of him.

But at the moment when the passage leading to the "unknown land" was formed, the eyes of the woman who was suspected of being the "Queen of Natural Disaster" suddenly darkened, and she uttered one word: "Lucky!"

Lucky? Does it mean the God of Luck? The Elven God of the Second Age was indeed a time traveler brought by the "Pure White Eyes"?

Abner frowned and asked, "What does 'lucky' mean?"

The woman did not answer, she just stared at him blankly and kept repeating the Elvish word "lucky". She became more and more excited, and the entire Crystal Palace gradually shook.

At this time, Audrey had to step forward to "comfort" her, and this allowed the lady to calm down again.

Seeing this, Abner thought for a moment, and then took out the elf-style crystal box he took out from the First Bank.

——Although this is Forsi's thing, after Abner made a request to study it for a while, the "magician" lady agreed without hesitation.

The moment the empty box was taken out, the body of the woman who was suspected of being the "Disaster Queen" on the throne suddenly trembled, and she seemed to wake up a lot.

Then, she looked at Abner with a complicated expression for several seconds before speaking intermittently again:

"Be careful...the other me...she has...completely gone crazy!

"'Lucky' friend... cut off my connection with the Book of Natural Disasters... shield my memory... hide me here... help me avoid her..."

As she said that, she looked at the empty box again and continued,

"The 'God's Box'... is empty?

"This must be...she did it!"
