"The Fool!"
Klein admitted that when he heard this sentence, his heartbeat really accelerated at the same moment, even ignoring the pain in his head, and thinking about whether to change the title for the next gathering.
After all, it is quite exciting to have the same name as a god.
But the next second, he saw the expression on Lin Ruo's face become extremely puzzled.
"But as far as I know, that pathway has not even given birth to Sequence 0 yet, so how could you have seen Him."
Didn't?
That's good!
Klein couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and the idea of changing his name faded in his heart.
After all, he had just announced his title of Fool, and changing his name at the next gathering would be too detrimental to the pretense of a big shot he was putting on.
If he was not careful, it might lead to his identity being exposed.
Moreover, he had already put on the act, and if there really was a problem with using this title, it was probably not something he could avoid by changing the title now.
Since that was the case, he might as well continue using it.
This was not surprising, after all, as a person who did not have the slightest reverence for the gods, Klein at this moment had not fully realized the horror of the extraordinary domain of this world, so naturally he would not change this extremely suicidal approach in the eyes of others.
And Lin Ruo also asked at this time: "Klein, can you describe the situation of that Fool in detail for me?
Of course, if the other party has forbidden related matters, then forget it."
"Um… sorry." Klein hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.
The more he said, the more mistakes he would make.
After all, he still didn't know much about the extraordinary realm of this world, so he didn't plan to expose too much information.
"It's okay." Lin Ruo deliberately showed a disappointed expression.
He then forced a smile and said: "You look very tired, take a rest for a while, right… Huh?"
A strong sense of trance occupied his brain almost instantly.
Lin Ruo didn't even have time to react to what was going on before he lost consciousness.
At the same time, from Klein's perspective, the old spirit buddy who was talking disappeared without finishing his sentence.
"Lin Ruo?" Klein shouted in astonishment.
He walked to the mirror and looked around from different angles, but he couldn't find Lin Ruo's figure again.
"What's going on?"
…
Loen Kingdom, Backlund—
When Lin Ruo's consciousness recovered again, before he even opened his eyes, he smelled a faint stench, and someone was groping in his clothes pocket.
His body reacted almost faster than his brain.
Lin Ruo immediately heard a scream in his ear.
He opened his eyes and saw a man with dirty and torn clothes, who seemed to be a homeless man, lying on the side covering his hand.
When he opened his eyes, his expression became even more frightened, and he shouted directly, "Ghost! Ghost!" and ran away.
The corner of Lin Ruo's mouth twitched, and he looked down at his chest.
He immediately noticed that there were large patches of solidified blood there, and there was also a hole in the clothes at the heart position, which made people wonder if the body had been shot through the heart by a bullet.
Almost in the next second, Lin Ruo lifted the clothes on his chest and found that although the skin under the clothes was also covered with blood, there were no wounds at all.
According to past experience, the wound should have healed.
To be honest, Lin Ruo was a little confused now.
After all, he was just teasing Klein in Tingen, but when he closed and opened his eyes, he had jumped to another set, and he had gotten rid of his spiritual body state and possessed a body.
Anyone would probably be confused for a moment.
However, time obviously didn't intend to let Lin Ruo think too much, because immediately he heard footsteps, and someone was rushing to the alley where he was now.
Without thinking about why he could hear the other party's footsteps from so far away, Lin Ruo immediately injected spirituality into the mysterious badge again, using it to transform himself into a hidden state—after waking up just now, Lin Ruo found that the mysterious badge was still in his hand.
And a few tens of seconds after Lin Ruo entered the hidden state, someone came to the entrance of the alley.
It was the homeless man who had just run out, and a man wearing a uniform similar to that of a patrol officer.
Under Lin Ruo's gaze, the two of them turned around in the alley.
Apart from the solidified blood stains on the ground, they naturally didn't find anything.
Therefore, the patrol officer seemed very dissatisfied with the homeless man, cursed at the latter a few times, and kicked him.
Fortunately, neither of them intended to stay in the alley for long, and soon left one after another.
Seeing this, Lin Ruo breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to further examine his current body in a hidden state when some information suddenly popped up in his mind.
That was the relevant memory belonging to the body he was currently using.
According to the memory, the original owner of Lin Ruo's current body was called Rudy Flair, 19 years old, a detective and also a Sequence 9 Hunter.
Moreover, according to the memory, Lin Ruo knew that Rudy Flair was a very unlucky person.
His life can be simply summarized as: born into a noble family, his original life was quite happy, but seven years ago, Rudy Flair's father, as a viscount, was imprisoned for being involved in a rebellion, and committed suicide in prison not long after.
Although Rudy Flair and his mother were not overtly implicated in this incident, after his father's death, various secret suppressions from all sides against the Feller family still caused the family to decline quickly, and his mother also died of depression in this situation.
Not only that, when Rudy Flair was about to come of age under the care of the loyal old butler Lode, a sudden fire burned everything Rudy Flair had to the ground.
If the butler hadn't desperately protected him in the fire, Rudy Flair would probably have died directly in the fire.
After escaping from the fire, Rudy Flair, realizing that someone didn't want him to come of age and didn't want the Feller family to rise again, chose to hide his name.
He used money to get himself a fake identity, and used cosmetics and wigs to disguise his appearance, completely turning himself into another person.
Of course, Rudy Flair could have directly left Backlund at this time and started a new life in a place where no one knew him.
But how could Rudy Flair be willing to leave?
The enemies who killed his father, caused his family to decline, and burned everything he had to the ground were still here.
He didn't even know who his enemies were, so how could he abandon everything and leave?
Driven by hatred, Rudy Flair stayed in Backlund.
In order to facilitate the investigation of the truth, he chose to become a detective.
In order to have the power of revenge, knowing the existence of Beyonders, he began to frequently participate in various mystical gatherings in Backlund, and finally found a gathering that truly belonged to Beyonders.
In that gathering, he bought the Sequence 9 Hunter potion formula, and a few days ago, he collected all the materials for the Hunter potion.
Feeling hopeful of revenge, Rudy Flair excitedly prepared the Hunter potion yesterday, and became a Sequence 9 Hunter safely after taking the potion.
Logically speaking, in this situation, Rudy Flair couldn't say that revenge was hopeful, but at least he should be able to live better than before.
But the truth was that Rudy, who had just obtained extraordinary power and whose mentality had expanded, wanted to try his hand, so he came to the East Borough alone, and then encountered human traffickers forcibly abducting people.
Although he had encountered many misfortunes, his sense of justice was still not low, so he still stepped forward without hesitation.
Then he was attacked by the human traffickers' accomplices and shot dead!
