Hobert said to "Hanged Man" Alger: "Before answering your question, let me explain the Solomon Empire to 'The Sun'."
Everyone was stunned, only to realize that 'The Sun' looked confused. 'The Sun' in the 'Forsaken Land' certainly didn't know about the Solomon Empire established in the Fourth Epoch of the Northern Continent.
Considering that 'The Sun' was the real financier, everyone remained silent, waiting for Hobert's explanation.
Hobert said: "The Solomon Empire was an empire established on the Northern Continent after the 'Great Cataclysm'.
"The entire Fourth Epoch, lasting over a thousand years, was a history of battles between four emperors. Solomon was one of them, and also the first to fall."
'The Sun' Derrick nodded: "So, the 'True Creator' is an evil god from outside the 'Forsaken Land'?"
Hobert smiled: "Answering Mr. Hanged Man's question will also answer your question."
He said: "The six gods at the time couldn't cooperate at all for two reasons. One principle is that the 'Lord of Storms' could never cooperate with the 'Eternal Blazing Sun', and the 'Evernight Goddess' could never cooperate with the 'God of Combat'."
Everyone understood that, affected by the 'Law of Similar Sequence Beyonder Characteristics Conservation', the six gods really couldn't form a unified front.
"As for the second reason," Hobert smiled, "it's contained in the origin of the 'True Creator'. This isn't part of the 2,000 pounds of information."
Everyone was a little disappointed. It was like playing a guessing game, but they couldn't guess the answer. The 'Emperor' who knew the answer let everyone guess for a long time, only to tell them that he didn't plan to reveal the answer.
But then everyone thought that the information they had heard so far was already worth 2,000 pounds, and the 'Emperor' was obviously going to reveal some more high-end information. In any case, they felt they had made a profit.
Especially Klein, since he hadn't spent a single penny.
"In short, three of the six gods always wanted to completely eliminate the 'True Creator', but they restrained each other and couldn't fully commit," Hobert continued:
"The other three originally had no intention of eliminating the 'True Creator', but after seeing the bloody sacrifices of the 'True Creator's' church and the spread of corrupt and insane power, they also decided to restrain the 'True Creator'.
"So, under the combined attack of the six gods, the 'Black Emperor' Solomon fell, and the 'True Creator' was driven by them to the Forsaken Land!"
Hobert's last sentence was like a warhammer hitting everyone's chest.
After two or three seconds, everyone reacted.
Klein: No wonder the 'True Creator' always wanted to descend. It turns out he wanted to return to the Northern Continent, and he was almost sealed in the 'Forsaken Land' by the gods! Since the 'Emperor' used the word 'fall', then Solomon was a true god-level existence!
Alger was a little excited, he had been pursuing this kind of high-end intelligence: This is a secret between the gods! I know it today!
Audrey, in addition to being surprised, was also relieved: The six gods should have abandoned their contradictions and driven away the 'True Creator' first!
Derrick asked incredulously: "Mr. Emperor, are you saying that the 'True Creator' came to the 'Forsaken Land' long after the 'Great Cataclysm'?"
"That's right," Hobert replied, "As far as I know, a large number of loyal believers and angels loyal to the 'True Creator' went with the 'True Creator'. The 'True Creator's' kingdom is somewhere in the 'Forsaken Land'.
"Even now, the Aurora Order still regards the 'Forsaken Land' as a 'holy land'. I remember Mr. Hanged Man mentioned before that a member of the Aurora Order disappeared into the Sonia Sea with his son. They went on a pilgrimage!"
That was a long time ago. 'The Sun' had just joined the Tarot Club not long ago. During the information exchange session, Alger mentioned such a thing.
Derrick quickly asked again: "Mr. Emperor, then, what about those believers? Why haven't we ever found them?"
Hobert asked in return: "Can the 'Forsaken Land' support a large number of humans? Where did the residents of the ruins you found go?"
Derrick suddenly realized that he wasn't as surprised as he thought: This is an evil god. As believers of an evil god, they certainly won't have a good end.
He suddenly thought: "Then what about Elder Lovia? Has she also been affected by the 'True Creator'? I, how should I eliminate her?"
He would never allow City of Silver to perish like those city-states that believed in evil gods!
"Don't rush," Hobert said, "Until now, do you think your higher-ups haven't noticed Lovia's abnormality?
"We can change our perspective. Perhaps in the eyes of your 'Shepherd' elder, you are also suspicious because you have become stronger through bizarre means.
"In the days to come, you must not be angry, you must not be reckless, and everything you do must be carefully considered. Have you forgotten what Mr. Hanged Man said just now? What you shoulder is the hope of the entire City of Silver. First of all, you must not put yourself in a dangerous situation!"
Hobert's last paragraph was very stern. In Audrey's opinion, it was like a mature and steady older brother teaching a reckless younger brother.
Klein and Alger could also feel that the "Emperor" really wanted to help "Little Sun".
These words sounded like thunder in Derrick's ears, and he lowered his head in shame: "I'm sorry, Mr. Emperor, I was too reckless."
Hobert didn't look at Derrick, but said: "Before you become strong, you must be patient. You have waited for more than two thousand years, and finally see hope, but you miss the opportunity because you are not patient. What a pity!"
Derrick lowered his head and continued to reflect on his words and deeds.
Hobert had already jumped to the next topic: "As for the 'Rose Redemption', this is a free piece of information: The current 'Rose Redemption' is an organization loyal to the 'True Creator'."
Alger asked: "Similar to the Aurora Order?"
"No, it's more than one level higher than the Aurora Order. You can't imagine who the first members of the 'Redemption Rose' were. The current 'Rose Redemption' is not the same as the former 'Rose Redemption'."
Everyone's reactions were different, but they all felt that the history of the Third and Fourth Epochs seemed too confusing.
After removing Fors's sensory blockade, she found that everyone's emotions seemed very heavy again, and even heavier than last time, but because she didn't participate in the transaction, she didn't feel comfortable asking.
Audrey suddenly exclaimed: "Mr. Emperor, your intelligence is really worth more than its price! If I had 20,000 pounds, I would definitely trade with you as soon as possible!"
Hobert smiled.
Fors then asked the question she had just thought of: "How can the Beyonder materials used in the transaction between this Mr. Sun and Mr. Emperor be delivered to the other party's hands?"
Does the 'Emperor' go to the 'Forsaken Land' to get it? Or does 'The Sun' send it to the Northern Continent? Neither seems realistic.
Audrey said: "Let me tell you the answer, the high-end of the Tarot Club is beyond your imagination."
