Chapter 329: The Code
Karoso quickly returned to the church with the agility of a thief and changed his clothes.
With his skills, it was impossible to sneak past the Cardinal at the church, but tonight the church was quiet, and he hardly saw any knights.
Karoso knew that the story had really begun.
Knock, knock, knock…
At that moment, there was a sound of knocking at the door.
Karoso wondered, who would come to see me at this hour?
When he opened the door, it was Alita.
Alita looked up and down at Karoso, "Hey, why did you come back so late? Did the auction take that long?"
"Teacher…" Karoso quickly said, "You came at the right time, come with me outside."
"Where to?" Alita squinted her eyes, "If you want to take me for a drink, then I’ll go with you."
"No, it’s more important than drinking," Karoso said. "Where’s Teacher 『』? We need to call her too."
"You go first and say what you want to do."
"I ran into a big problem; Bishop Celica needs our help."
Hearing Karoso’s words, Alita felt a chill rising from her feet, "Stop joking, that is Celica! She is already in trouble; what use would we be? Would we just make it worse? To be honest, together, 『』 and I can’t even defeat a knight who just entered the eighth tier, even if he doesn’t have any eighth-tier cards."
"An eighth-tier Card Maker just bullies seventh-tier players!"
"Hey, you should understand the fighting power of a Card Maker! In the eighth tier, Card Makers are at the bottom. Not everyone has a War God Divine Seal like you."
"Remember the City of Freedom? I heard 『』 say that it took Null and her several days to hold off one, and it was thanks to your family’s Reid and a warrior from Presea that they managed to handle it."
"Don’t worry, it’s safe. Master Celica can control the situation; I’m just afraid that the aftermath of the battle might hurt me," Karoso said.
"Then why don’t you just stay away? What kind of nonsense needs a sixth-tier like you to join?" Alita glared at Karoso. "Don’t tell me the Church of Dawn Goddess still needs to borrow the reputation of the Colloa family."
"Ahem, I need to do some odd jobs, like digging. My Attendant Card isn’t that powerful; I dig slowly." Karoso said shyly, "Your followers dig fast…"
"Wow!" Alita’s eyes widened, "I am at least an Eight-tier Card Maker, wherever I go, I am a guest of honor. You want me to dig in the dirt?"
When Alita became a seventh-tier Card Maker, no noble dared to ask her to be their lover.
In the academy, she is definitely an S-class teacher, holding the same status as the principal.
If she joined the research institute, she would also be a senior researcher.
But arriving at Karoso, she has to do everything…
Even Osiris doesn’t understand what Alita owes Karoso. If it were that seventh-tier Card Maker from Canglang Province, they would have run away already.
"On Seastone ground, I can’t break through." Karoso said with his hands raised, "This is still Laria, you can hardly buy any mechanical creations… and there’s no time to go to the black market. Most importantly, this has to be done secretly."
"Teacher Alita, you see, I also taught you how to make the charge and taunt skills. You will publish the paper later…"
[Hahaha… You are so funny]
[These were originally invented by Alita, but Master Karoso took credit for them.]
[Now it’s good; the paper belongs to Alita, and the money belongs to Master Karoso.]
[Poor Alita, I will help you rise up.]
Seeing netizens complain like this, Karoso also felt a bit embarrassed.
But the ideas Osiris instilled in him were those of a higher power, and thick-skinned, heartless Karoso could still manage it.
"Alright, alright, I really owe you one," Alita said, acknowledging that the cards Karoso taught her truly inspired her.
She had been doing this kind of research for a long time and was lacking a breakthrough opportunity; now that chance has been revealed by Karoso, Alita felt like she was soaring upward.
……
As Karoso walked past Kirmin’s room, he suddenly paused.
For some reason, at that moment, Karoso really wanted to take Kirmin with him.
She was just a fourth-tier, with very little use, but Karoso wanted to bring her along.
Soon, Karoso realized that Kirmin was a very talented Mechanic; as long as she had enough parts, she might be able to make a small machine on the spot.
Knock, knock, knock…
Understanding this, Karoso confidently knocked on Kirmin’s door.
"Who is it…"
Kirmin, wearing her pajamas, sleepily opened the door.
When she saw Karoso, Kirmin was startled and instinctively covered her chest, "Young Master, what are you doing here? You said you weren’t interested in me."
"I’m really not interested in you." Karoso sighed, "Just come with me, we’re going to the wild."
"The wild, the outdoors?"
Kirmin was confused.
My first time, and it has to be in the wild?
There is dirt everywhere, with little grasses after the rain, and I might get hurt by sharp stones.
The ground in the wild is also cold; what if I catch a cold then?
"Young master, how about I give you money, and you can go to the club and find two? They should have some there…" Kirmin looked at Karoso with pleading eyes.
"Bring your tools; I asked you to make a machine!" Karoso said with a frown.
What is this girl always thinking about?
"Is that so…" Kirmin sighed in relief and then asked cautiously, "It’s not a bed, right?"
Bang!
Karoso slammed the door shut, "Change clothes, see you at the door!"
Soon, Karoso, Kirmin, 『』, and Alita appeared outside the church.
『』 had already changed her clothes and tidied herself up a bit.
"What are we really going to do?" 『』 instinctively felt that going out with Karoso would not lead to anything good, but she still followed him, which was different from Alita.
"We’re just helping the church investigate some things. That place is not very far from the churches’ locations, so don’t worry." Karoso said, "It’s safe."
Karoso didn’t involve the Nature Mage Association; they only agreed to help him protect Neymar but didn’t promise anything else.
Soon, the group headed towards the forest.
……
Above the church.
Messiah held an accordion and gently played a song, humming an ancient tune, "I once studied old books, those stories and myths, Surtr and her treasures, the Lich King and his gifts, Messiah’s power, and the desire for immortality…"
Click…
At that moment, a crack appeared in the statue of the Aurora Goddess in front of the church, and beams of golden light flickered from within.
"Don’t be stingy, I’m just sitting for a while. We are all losers; you are simply the best among the losers, so what’s there to be proud of?"
Messiah stretched, "Hmm, it’s time to see what’s happening. If I want to revive this land… I should ask if I agree."
