Chapter 27: A man must pretend, borrow the tiger skin of a fool

“Two thousand five hundred and eighty-two years…” Everyone, including the Fool, sighed.

Seeing that Mr. Sun was in low spirits and seemed to be losing hope for the future, Old Blue said hurriedly:

"Just because you can't find it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. You know, this is a very common thing in the field of mysticism. In fact, the members of the Aurora Society have always believed that the God-Forsaken Land is the sanctuary of the true creator they believe in, and have been going out to sea to explore the location of the God-Forsaken Land."

"Based on your description of the City of Silver's beliefs, the reference to 'the Lord who created everything', perhaps the 'fallen creator' is indeed related to the creator you believe in, and this is the key point of everything."

The priestess stood up, bowed to the Fool, and said:
“I’m sorry, Mr. Fool. What I’m going to say next may mention your name…”

Klein the Fool was listening with great interest, thinking that Old Blue was simply a humanoid storytelling machine, worthy of being the descendant of a time traveler. He immediately said leisurely:
"No problem, I allow it."

"Yes," Old Blue sat down and continued:

"There is no doubt that Mr. Fool knows the exact location of the God-Forsaken Land. The appearance of Mr. Sun here is proof of that."

Everyone nodded, and the sun's eyes almost glowed as they looked forward to what Mr. Priestess would say next.

"But you must understand that you believe in the Creator, not Mr. Fool. He has given you the opportunity to become stronger and embark on the path of self-salvation. This is already the greatest mercy."

“At the same time, you must also understand the principle of ‘equivalent exchange’ proposed by Mr. Fool. He will not save you for no reason. You cannot afford such a price.”

"The last point is that the Fallen Creator's sanctuary might be in the God-Forsaken Land, in the area where the City of Silver is located. The entire God-Forsaken Land is sealed and hidden, perhaps because of the Fallen Creator."

"And such a seal may be waiting for a certain time, a key person, or a key event. This is very reasonable in mysticism."

This string of words made Sun and Justice tremble in their heads. Only the Hanged Man was better, but he also looked shocked.

Klein the Fool was also shocked. "Mr. Priestess... you know so much..." He found that there was no other word to describe it.

Priestess Old Blue continued:
“Mr. Sun, since Mr. Fool has chosen you, perhaps you are the key person. You just need to improve yourself. At a certain point in time, you will be able to push open that door and lead Silver City out of that ‘abandoned place’.”

“Yes… I think I understand. Thank you, Mr. Priestess.” The Sun saluted the Priestess, then bowed deeply to the Fool and said, “Praise Mr. Fool. Your will is my will.”

Very good, I have fooled a believer into cooking for me! Old Blue was very happy. Although Derrick the Sun would convert sooner or later, he would do it earlier. He would let Mr. Fool feel the feeling of being served by a believer. Hey, I am really a true priest!

The Fool Klein was a little dazed. He felt that Old Blue's style had changed. After drinking a bowl of chicken soup, Mr. Sun became a believer of the Fool? This... Hey, I can't save the Forsaken Land even if I want to... The Sanctuary of the Fallen Creator is still there. Do you want me to go to war with Him? What a joke!
He had no choice but to nod as if he didn't care, as a response to the sun.

Justice Audrey only felt that her curiosity and longing for the extraordinary world were satisfied at this moment. The 1000 pounds was really worth it! It actually involved the secrets of God! Are Mr. Fool and the Fallen Creator fighting? It must be, just by the way Mr. Fool calls the Fallen Creator, you can feel it!
In the sanctuary of the Fallen Creator, there is Mr. Sun, the believer chosen by Mr. Fool! In the words of Emperor Roselle, it is so cool!

The Hanged Man Alger was certain at this time that Mr. Fool was indeed a god... You know, the real... Fallen Creator was a true god, and he could even fight against the three oldest gods for a long time, and his power was growing stronger and stronger... And Mr. Fool was clearly targeting Him... Only gods can target gods! Fortunately, fortunately, I was one of the first members of the Tarot Club... The appearance of the priestess threatened my position in the Tarot Club... He was knowledgeable and generous in sharing... Who was he?
"Ahem," the priestess Old Blue coughed, attracting everyone's attention, and then said:
"Next, I will explain the content of Miss Justice's 1000 pounds..."

"Ah?" Justice Audrey was confused. Wasn't the explanation already completed?
"Ah?" The sun was also confused. Wasn't what the priestess just said worth 1000 pounds? How to calculate the unit of pounds?

“Ah?” The Hanged Man felt that he had heard wrongly. Mr. Priestess was also a veteran, so why was she so honest?
"Ah?" Klein the Fool was a little dumbfounded. All the things I just said were not included in the 1000 pounds? Mr. Priestess, what are you doing...

The priestess said:

"Oh, 1000 pounds. Don't underestimate the purchasing power of 1000 pounds... Although on the Extraordinary Road, the role of money will be much reduced."

"I mentioned earlier that members of the Aurora Society often go out to sea to search for the sanctuary of the fallen Creator, the so-called God-forsaken Land."

"The key point is that they set out from the Sonia Sea and headed east... until they reached the easternmost point. If the City of Silver is there, and the Forsaken Land of the Gods is there... then, just like the end of the Raging Sea is the Southern Continent, that piece of land can be called... the Eastern Continent."

"Eastern Continent..." Everyone fell into deep thought, feeling confused and excited.

Sun still didn't quite understand what was said. He roughly understood that the priestess had deduced the relative position of the Silver City...

Miss Justice was very excited. The fact that Emperor Roselle had discovered a safe passage to the southern continent was of great significance to the northern continent. Who wouldn't want to be the one who goes down in history? Especially a great adventurer!
The Hanged Man seemed to have solved some of his doubts. He thought of a listener he had hunted down some time ago, and took his child to search for the sanctuary of the fallen creator... If he could succeed, then...

Klein the Fool was somewhat shocked. "Eastern Continent... I haven't even visited the entire Northern Continent yet... If it's another continent that can only be reached by crossing the ocean, then Gray Fog was able to hold the Tarot Club at such a long distance... I have already overestimated Gray Fog's status... but it's still beyond my imagination."

"Yes, the East Continent. Judging from the coordinates of the North Continent, it is indeed the East Continent. Perhaps one day in the future, we will be able to witness the emergence of the East Continent..."

"That's about it. I hope my answer satisfies you, Miss Justice."

Priestess Old Blue nodded slightly and ended her speech.

Justice Audrey suppressed all her emotions and said:

"Well, I am very satisfied, Mr. Priestess... I wonder how I can pay you?"

The priestess looked at the Fool inconspicuously and found that the latter did not express anything. She couldn't help but feel regretful. It seemed that the Fool Express was not online yet... Otherwise, it would be much safer to sacrifice the money above the gray fog...

Then he skillfully read out a string of numbers, "This is my anonymous account at Backlund Bank. Just deposit the money into it."
