During the free trading session earlier, Audrey felt happy, but she always felt like something was missing.
Now she finally understood, what was missing was 'Emperor's' seemingly endless high-level intelligence, and yes, well, and the blasphemy against the gods.
At the Tarot Gathering, it seemed like you couldn't get past this stage without blaspheming against the gods or discussing them.
Emlyn asked strangely: "What does our previous argument have to do with the first 'Blasphemy Slate'?"
"The Fool had previously explained information about the Blasphemy Slate at the Tarot Gathering," Hobert said with a smile. "Mr. Fool, can I tell Mr. Moon that information for a fee?"
Klein slowly nodded: "You may."
"I think this information is worth at least 1,000 pounds," Hobert asked with a smile: "Mr. Moon, do you want to continue listening?"
"I... you..." Emlyn was a little angry, this was a bit of a rogue move. They were in the middle of an argument, and suddenly he had to spend money to buy information to prove that his opponent's statement was correct?
Hobert added: "How about this, you can replace these 1,000 pounds with medicine. I'll place an order with you whenever I need it."
"With Mr. Fool as a witness, the actual value of the information I'm about to tell is definitely more than 1,000 pounds. The Sanguine with a long history should also have similar records, but I believe you definitely don't know this information at your current level!
"If you knew similar information, I wouldn't take a copper penny from you!"
Emlyn took a deep breath: "Of course I believe in Mr. Fool's witness. Tell me, I want to hear what information I don't know?"
As a member of the Sanguine, he knew far more information and history than ordinary Beyonders!
Everyone showed expressions of waiting to watch the show. If it were someone else, it would be hard to say, but compared to 'Emperor', Mr. Moon's words were too confident.
Hobert said: "As far as I know, the first 'Blasphemy Slate' only appeared occasionally during the Second Epoch, and it wasn't until the Third Epoch that it was fully presented to the world."
Klein behind the gray fog thought: Is this really some of the information I disclosed before because of 'Emperor's' bribery? Why does it sound so unfamiliar to me? The Nighthawk's related information only said that the first 'Blasphemy Slate' appeared in the Third Epoch, and it existed in the Second Epoch?
Audrey also felt a little strange: Did Mr. Fool say the specific time when the first 'Blasphemy Slate' appeared at that time? Why don't I have any impression at all?
Alger realized something: I only know that the first 'Blasphemy Slate' appeared in the Third Epoch, but I didn't know that it also appeared in the Second Epoch! Mr. Fool must have given 'Emperor' some valuable information separately after the gathering. After all, 'Emperor' was bribing Mr. Fool at that time, and we were just bystanders.
Derrick was a little confused: When I was in school, I heard that the first 'Blasphemy Slate' was a gift from the 'Omnipotent and Omniscient Lord' to people, but this is the first time I've heard that it appeared in the Second Epoch. Mr. Fool never mentioned these things before, but Mr. Emperor said that it was information that Mr. Fool had disclosed. How strange!
"Magician" Fors hadn't joined the Tarot Gathering at that time, and didn't know the process of 'Emperor' bribing Mr. Fool. At the moment, she didn't dare to breathe loudly, for fear that 'Emperor' would remember this matter and ask her for 1,000 pounds as well.
The most surprised person was Emlyn: This, this is indeed information that I haven't heard of, damn it! The noble Sanguine actually lost to a human in terms of history!
But he still stubbornly said: "Mr. Emperor, is this worth 1,000 pounds? What can this explain?"
"Think about it carefully," Hobert said with a smile: "Without exception, the eight ancient gods of the Second Epoch were known for their madness and distortion.
"And in the Third Epoch, and after that, there were very few mad and distorted gods. Every pathway has also become traceable, and people can effectively resist the madness and distortion brought about by Beyonder characteristics."
Emlyn opened his mouth. He seemed to have thought of a very important piece of information, but he didn't know how to express his thoughts for a while.
The other members had similar feelings. Klein and Alger were the first to understand what "Emperor" meant.
Alger said to "Emperor": "Are you saying that there was no systematized pathway system in the Second Epoch at all?"
Before this, he thought that there might not be a complete potion formula system in the Second Epoch, but there should be the concept of "pathway", but listening to "Emperor's" meaning, it didn't seem to be the case?
Hobert nodded: "That's right."
"Then..." Alger found that his voice was too loud. He calmed down a little before asking: "Then, how did those ancient gods become gods?"
Hobert nodded: "We can only say that they were lucky, and they didn't die after swallowing so many Beyonder characteristics."
The other members were all in a brief shock. They all knew from the myths that the Second Epoch was a barbaric era, and after listening to what Emperor said, they realized the extent of its madness and bloodiness!
In Audrey's mind, some extremely brutal scenes of the Second Epoch appeared. At that time, there were strong creatures everywhere. They were fighting and fighting, and in the end, only eight extraordinary creatures ascended to the throne of God. At that time, humans, heavens, humans were as weak as ants at that time.
Even Derrick temporarily forgot the argument just now and began to imagine the scene of the City of Silver struggling under the rule of the Giant King.
Everyone looked at Emlyn in unison, as if saying with their eyes: Your 1,000 pounds is really worth it!
Even Klein, who had always been frugal, was thinking about whether to help Emlyn bear one or two hundred pounds?
Hobert continued: "The history of the Sanguine can indeed be traced back to the Second Epoch, but at that time, a Beyonder was equal to madness and distortion. The Sanguine must not have distinctions such as barons and earls.
"In the Third Epoch, the Sanguine also benefited from the 'Blasphemy Slate', and then there was a distinction between sequences.
"And at this time, humans have also risen, and nobles have also appeared.
"I am not a historian and cannot give you a clear answer, but according to my guess, humans should have appeared with the division of titles first. After all, the Sanguine did not play a big role in the entire Third Epoch.
"In the Fourth Epoch, there was a Sanguine archangel who became the Queen of the Night Emperor."
Emlyn was speechless for a while. He didn't know how to refute "Emperor", because after Emperor's reminder, he also recalled that the history of the Sanguine in the Third Epoch was indeed a bit vague, and it was indeed in the Fourth Epoch that they ushered in glory again.
At this time, everyone had forgotten the original intention of the argument. Audrey asked: "Mr. Emperor, why did the first 'Blasphemy Slate' appear in the Second Epoch? Is there any unknown secret in this?"
"That's right!"
"You, give me a price!" Audrey said with some excitement and nervousness.
"Thirty thousand... no, fifty thousand..." Finally, Hobert sighed: "I'm sorry, with the information you currently have, I really can't price it.
"Or rather, that level of information can't be measured by money."
Everyone was secretly surprised by "30,000" and "50,000", but later "Emperor" directly gave the price of "priceless", which was the first time Emperor had made such an expression.
Audrey asked again: "Then how can I get the answer to this question?"
Hobert pondered for a while: "Wait a minute, when the time is right, Mr. Fool may explain it to everyone, or I will conduct related transactions with everyone and tell everyone."
But this level of information is difficult to measure with money, so let's talk about it when there is a chance.
Audrey was a little disappointed, but then asked: "Mr. Emperor, there are a total of eight ancient gods, right? Can I trade with you for information related to the ancient gods?"
"Of course," Hobert said with a smile: "A simple introduction is 3,000 pounds, but overly detailed information, such as the current state and situation of the only surviving ancient god, is not included in the answer."
And the related information of Lilith's "fall", etc., are all key information that can affect the current situation, of course, it cannot be easily revealed.
Audrey once again launched crowdfunding: "Is there anyone willing to join the transaction together? I can pay Mr. Emperor 1,000 pounds, and the rest will be collected by everyone."
"I am willing to pay 500 pounds!" Fors, who had just obtained 1,200 pounds, said first. Now, trading high-end information with the emperor has become a habit.
Alger hesitated slightly: "I'll also pay 500 pounds!"
Although he also knew that he should save money to buy the "Ocean Songster" potion formula, he didn't want to miss such a transaction!
Derrick: "I am willing to offer two Beyonder ingredients at the Sequence 8 level."
The previous "Provoker Warhammer" gave him a lot of merit, and two Beyonder ingredients were a piece of cake for him.
Then, as usual, everyone looked at "The World".
Klein, who had just obtained 4,000 pounds, also said confidently: "I will also pay 500 pounds! Deduct it from the money from selling Beyonder characteristics."
In the end, only Emlyn was left. He moved his lips, but in the end he didn't say anything, indicating that he was not very interested in this issue: Ancient gods, I also know a few, there is no need to spend such unjust money.
Audrey didn't want the new members to be isolated, so she said again: "How about this, I will pay 300 pounds more to give Mr. Moon the right to listen, but he cannot ask questions, is that okay? Mr. Emperor?"
"No need!" Emlyn refused: "I'm not interested in this question!"
Audrey smiled: "Mr. Moon, this will be your reward for answering my question just now, please be sure to accept it."
Reward? What reward? Emlyn thought for a while before realizing that Miss Justice was talking about how he answered her question about the way the Sanguine distinguishes levels just now: "You are an upright and generous lady, but there is no need to pay a reward for this."
Audrey continued to smile: "Mr. Moon, please participate, the transaction initiated with Mr. Emperor is one of the important links in the Tarot Gathering."
Fors recalled that after participating in such a transaction, she couldn't stop at all.
Hobert also said to Emlyn: "If you join the transaction, I will give you a piece of information when I talk about the Sanguine Ancestor, as a welcome to the new member."
As soon as this remark came out, the other members more enthusiastically invited Mr. Moon to join the transaction. Emlyn reluctantly agreed. He also wanted to see how worthwhile the information worth 3,000 pounds was.
After discussing the price, Hobert smiled: "Then let's start!
"The eight ancient gods are 'Giant King' Aurmir, 'Elf King' Soniathrym, 'Sanguine Ancestor' Lilith.
"And 'Dragon of Imagination' Ankewelt, 'Phoenix Ancestor' Gregrace, 'Mutant King' Kvastir.
"There are also 'Annihilation Demonic Wolf' Flegrea and 'Devil Monarch' Farbauti."
Everyone remembered carefully, and they all sighed that many mythological figures were actually ancient gods!
Then Hobert began to elaborate: "'Giant King' Aurmir, 'Little Sun' should know very well, is the god of the 'Warrior' pathway, and the City of Silver was once under the rule of the 'Giant King'."
"Little Sun" nodded repeatedly: "That's right, later we received the redemption of the Lord and began to believe in the 'Omnipotent and Omniscient God'."
Hobert continued: "The 'Giant King's' subsidiary gods are, 'Harvest Goddess' Omibella, 'Dawn God' Badheil, 'God of Honor'…"
"Wait a minute!" Alger interrupted in surprise: "Sorry everyone, I suddenly remembered a confidential document I read, which said that the name of the 'God of Combat' is Badheil!"
The others were also surprised, and then looked at "Emperor" together.
Hobert smiled: "That's right, this eldest son of the 'Giant King' is the later 'God of Combat'!"
The hall was silent for a full five or six seconds before everyone reacted and spread their thoughts.
Klein behind the gray fog thought: It turns out that the Seven Gods can be traced back to the Second Epoch.
Alger felt his heart pounding: I know the origin of another god! All along, they have been so high above that I always forget that they also have origins.
Audrey: Heavens, "God of Combat" is actually the son of "Giant King"! How does it feel like the position of God in the "Warrior" pathway is like a noble title? Did "God of Combat" inherit his father's position?
Fors: "God of Combat" He is actually a son, no, I mean, He was actually born by someone else, and not... okay, so the gods really have a birth process!
The most surprised person was Emlyn: Is this how "God of Combat" came to be? Mother above, cough cough, Ancestor above, why do we, a group of "Mid Sequence" Beyonders, need to know these things?
Then he realized: No wonder they all said that "Emperor's" information was worth more than its value, this one piece of information alone is worth more than 3,000 pounds! Am I crazy, or is "Emperor" crazy?
"Little Sun" Derrick thought for a while before asking: "Mr. Emperor, is the 'Harvest Goddess' the Earth Mother you are talking about? I noticed that their authority is very similar."
Reminded by Derrick, everyone suddenly realized this and looked at "Emperor" with either surprise or excitement.
