Chapter 314: Peering through the gray fog

After a while, Greste sighed and said: "We can start investigating from other people first, if there are no problems with them."

"Well, that's actually a good idea."

Klein also agreed with this course of action. Instead of taking the risk of investigating the ignorant Earl Hastur Campbell, it would be better to use the elimination method.

When all possibilities are eliminated, the last one left must be the truth.

As evening approached at the port, a sea-smelling breeze blew. The sky was a little dark, and a black cloud that looked like ink was eroding away.

It's going to rain heavily.

Klein looked at the seagulls flying hard on the seashore in the distance. They seemed to be oppressed by black clouds, and their figures were so low that they were almost close to the sea.

He felt a little cold for no reason, maybe he wasn't used to the changeable weather at the beach yet.

Back in the room, Greste and Klein discussed for a while, split the people on the list in half, and each was responsible for the investigation.

At night, when he was about to go to sleep, Klein felt a little restless. After thinking about it, he got up and went to the bathroom, walked four steps backward and entered above the gray mist.

When we came here, the prying eyes finally disappeared.

There was no doubt that someone was watching him and Greste in the dark.

Could it be the person sent by Count Hastur Campbell?

After thinking for two or three seconds, Klein decided to do some divination.

"What happened to the Red Gloves is related to Lord Hastur Campbell."

The citrine pendant did not give the revelation that Klein wanted. It moved as if it was stuck in a quagmire.

To be precise, it should be tightly attached, and even moving is a luxury.

Klein looked at it for a while and then changed his divination sentence: "008 is in the hands of Count Hastur Campbell!"

This time the proportion still did not yield any useful information.

All divination involving Hastur yielded no useful answers.

When he divined 008, although it was obscure and difficult, he was still able to get some inspiration.

Does this prove that the secret hidden in Hastur is far more terrifying than 008?

Klein tried to make such an analogy, and felt more and more that the young earl was terrifying and deeply hidden.

At this moment, Klein, who was sitting on the long bronze table, once again felt prying eyes.

The sight seemed to be coming from a distant place... from the starry sky!

Klein was shocked and subconsciously looked up at the sky shrouded in gray fog.

The prying eyes seemed to be able to penetrate the gray fog and fall on him.

Vaguely, Klein saw an invisible, blurry figure overlooking him in the starry sky that was obscured by fog.

"The Fool."

A light word penetrated the cover of gray fog and exploded throughout the space like thunder.

Klein's scalp instantly went numb, and he quickly looked away, trying to use the power of gray mist to cut off this connection.

Fortunately, the violently rolling gray fog disrupted all prying eyes.

The place had once again returned to its former peace, but Klein's heart was still beating, beating like boiling water in a boiler.

After a while, after confirming that there was nothing unusual, he gradually relaxed.

He didn't expect that he would encounter such a terrible thing just by divination twice about Earl Hastur Campbell.

That blurry and invisible figure, whose gaze could not only penetrate the gray fog, but also identify the Fool's identity, was definitely an ancient existence.

Could he be the ancient mystic whom Lord Hastur Campbell believed in?

His many fortune-tellings attracted his attention, so he cast his gaze to reveal his identity.

There is also a possibility that He has known about the existence of the Fool for a long time. This time he came to reveal the identity of the Fool and wanted to give the Fool a warning?

Klein's brain began to work extremely fast, thinking about various possibilities.

But in the end, it just stayed at speculation and nothing could be confirmed.

But one thing is for sure, he can no longer divine things about Earl Hastur Campbell, lest it cause another accident.

Klein couldn't help but remember that during the day, Earl Hastur Campbell wanted to use high salary to attract him to work in South Wales County.

Could it be that at that time, he had already discovered that he was a follower of the Fool?

Not too possible.

I have always behaved very cautiously, and I have never met him a few times. How could he see through his hidden identity?

I have never prayed to a fool.

Klein thought a lot and felt that he still thought too much.

Maybe it’s because I’ve been under too much pressure recently.

Before leaving the gray fog, Klein looked up again at the sky covered by the gray fog.

When there was still nothing unusual, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other side, in the Hall of Stars, Hastur sat high up, still looking at the stars tonight.

When Klein divined him twice, he was in the Hall of Stars.

Ordinary people's divination would not be able to alarm him, but Klein, who was doing divination on the Origin Castle, continued to divination things about himself, and finally caused a subtle reaction in the Palace of Stars.

Hastur's eyes naturally focused on it. When he saw that it was a gray fog, he guessed that the person who shocked him tonight would be Klein who was above the gray fog.

In order to verify his guess, he deliberately said the Fool's honorable name.

Looking at the gray fog that suddenly rolled violently, he knew that he was not wrong.

Klein was in the depths of the gray fog!

Unfortunately, Klein's relationship with the Hall of Stars was very weak, and he could not pull him to the Hall of Stars for a meeting. In addition, there was the instinctive defense of Sefirah Castle, and he could not break into Sefirah Castle and directly tie Klein up with the Chain of Order.

"I hope Mr. Fool can sleep well tonight."

"Do you want to give him a dream?"

Hasta thought about it, but still did not disturb Klein, who had been greatly shocked.

...

In the morning, Greyste had already gotten up and washed up, ready to go out for breakfast. When he passed by Klein's room, he saw that he had not gotten up yet, so he tried to knock on the door.

After waiting outside for a while, the door was opened from the inside.

Klein appeared in front of him, with messy hair and a pair of dark circles under his eyes. His mental state was not very good.

Greyste asked curiously: "Klein, you didn't have a nightmare last night, did you?"

"Almost." Klein forced a smile.

He almost couldn't sleep last night, fearing that the vague figure would suddenly appear in his dream.

Fortunately, he didn't dream last night.

Of course, he couldn't tell Greystee about these things.

He changed the subject and said, "Mr. Greystee, do you feel like you are being watched?"

Greystee's face became serious, "Now?"

"No, it was yesterday."

Klein shook his head. He didn't feel like he was being watched now, only when he was strolling on the street yesterday.

"It seems that someone has started to pay attention to us." Greystee said again, "I'm going out to eat something. If you want to eat something, I'll bring you some."

"Don't bother, wait until I finish washing up and go out together."

"What you need now is rest. Sometimes too much inspiration is not a good thing."

"..."

Faced with such a misunderstanding, Klein didn't explain anything. He did feel very tired and needed to rest.

"Don't be so nervous. Our mission to Puning Port has been basically completed. Let's try our best to do the rest. We must believe that the goddess will always guide us."

Greste tapped his chest with his right hand four times, drawing a crimson moon, and Klein followed suit to praise the goddess.

At this time, Klein was more serious than usual. In the past, his praise of the goddess was somewhat formulaic and insincere.

Now, he hoped that the goddess could really protect him.

…

In the distant sea, Mr. A gradually awakened and looked into the distance calmly.

Even at this moment, the end of the sea and sky was shrouded in thick black clouds, and lightning was constantly rolling inside.

This kind of slightly shocking natural beauty could not cause any ripples in his heart at this moment.

"Is this the world in the eyes of the Lord?"

Mr. A couldn't help but put his mentality into the Lord's vision, and his originally calm state of mind was immediately broken.

Things about the Lord can always easily shake his persistence and will.

Mr. A did not think this was a bad thing. On the contrary, it was a proof of his devout belief in the Lord.

The ship has deviated from its direction and is heading towards an unknown sea. Does it need to inform the Lord?

Perhaps the great Lord has already noticed all this.

Thinking that the Lord is on the ship with him at this moment, Mr. A feels relaxed and happy again.

But when a familiar figure appeared at the end of the sea and sky, his whole body was trembling slightly, and a voice came out of his throat, "Lord Ouroboros!"

The angel sitting under the Lord, the angel of destiny who truly serves the Lord, He actually appeared here!

Is He here to welcome the Lord's return?

Mr. A quickly cheered up, quickly tidied up his clothes, straightened his back, tried to suppress the trembling in his heart, and tried to show an indifferent expression.

He had already thought of the first sentence he would say later, "Lord Ouroboros, I will escort the Lord back to His Kingdom of God."
