Chapter 232: Emperor Solomon's Abnormality

In Rex's notes, there were many speculations about the actions of the Loen royal family, guessing sometimes that they were building a royal shelter, and sometimes suspecting that it was a ritual requirement for a certain sequence of the "Justiciar" pathway.
Hobert, of course, knew that these modifications were likely to turn the ruins into mausoleums, or that the ruins were originally mausoleums left by Solomon.
It seems that Rex didn't know about the "Black Emperor's" apotheosis ritual. Well, even for Beyonders of the "High Sequence", the apotheosis ritual is an unattainable piece of information.
The key is the lack of access channels. The orthodox gods' churches unanimously and vigorously block such information.
For families like the Trunsoest family that have produced true gods, the apotheosis ritual is only known to a very few direct descendants, and they basically don't actively leave relevant written records.
Not everyone can have the experience of a Tarot Club member, knowing the secrets of apotheosis during the "Mid Sequence" or even the "Low Sequence".
So Rex didn't know what the Loen royal family was doing, but that didn't stop him from complaining in his notes that the royal family was a bunch of locusts. They cleaned up the ruins they had excavated very thoroughly, without leaving even an ordinary antique.
And there was a special note, saying that the information of these four ruins was useless, and telling his children not to go to these places, lest they be caught by the royal family.
Judging from the ink, this warning should have been written later.
Rex probably never imagined that this information would be very important to Hobert. It was equivalent to marking four of George III's nine mausoleums!
Moreover, Rex left mystical "backdoors" in these four ruins. If these "backdoors" were not discovered by the royal family, Hobert could still enter silently.
Hobert seemed to feel the arrangement of fate. This was obviously the key to destroying George III's advancement!
When the time comes, tell the Castiya family of the Feynapotter Kingdom royal family about these entrances, hehehe~
Klein didn't have a better way at the time and could only forcefully attack one of the mausoleums. Rex's information could allow Hobert to solve the problem with a leisurely attitude.
The Loen royal family is not without enemies. Sometimes, making good use of the enemy's enemies will find you great help.
In addition to the four ruins that were excavated in advance by the Loen royal family, one of the other three had been discovered by other Beyonders, and the extraordinary items inside were swept away and turned upside down.
Only two are relatively well preserved, one of which is the ruin where the notes are hidden.
Rex also described the sealed item in this ruin. In the notes, he said that he and his good friend Arthur groped in the stone room with their eyes closed for several days, and basically determined that it should be the corpse of a certain Death.
As for the black hound spirit beast, these two guys chased it and touched it, and determined that it was a black hound spirit beast in a rather strange state. As long as you don't look at it, it's not dangerous for Beyonders of Sequence 4 and above.
If it is below Sequence 4, even if you don't look at this black hound spirit beast, your spirit will be crushed if you stay by its side for a long time, and going crazy is the best ending.
Hobert could imagine the black hound spirit beast's face full of helplessness. The key is that it can't walk fast and can only let these two rascals who don't know where they came from touch it.
These two are really brave! Hobert exclaimed.
As for the method of entering that stone room, it only requires the blood of Beyonders of Sequence 6 or above of the "Death" pathway or the "Door" pathway to open it.
Hobert thought of Azik's way of opening the door. At that time, he thought it had to be the blood of a descendant of Death.
In that case, even if Mr. Azik is not present, he can find that stone room.
Rex explored the entire underground structure at that time, and discovered the sealing method of that stone room. As long as you arrange more than 500 rooms around it, that stone room will get "lost" and will always "wander" around there.
In addition, Rex found many valuable documents in the noble courtyard, including records that this courtyard belonged to Duke Servia of the Trunsoest Empire, who was a direct descendant of the Night Emperor.
As Azik said, the Night Emperor at that time was preparing to use the body of an ancient Death to design a trap against the Underworld Emperor.
Through the documents found, Rex discovered some potentially useful information.
At that time, together with Rex's notes, there was also a very old paper notebook, which was the most important document left by Duke Servia.
A large part of Rex's notes is a "reading experience" of this document.
First of all, Rex discovered that this Duke Servia was deeply trusted by the Night Emperor. Servia served as the captain of Trunsoest's guard before the joint ruling period, so he knew many secret histories about the Night Emperor.
And this guy likes to take notes, so Rex and Hobert also know the secret history of the Night Emperor.
Fortunately, Servia didn't reveal any scandals, but just depicted some scenes of the Night Emperor's life before becoming a god, or rather, the human side of the Night Emperor.
In the information provided by Duke Servia, Tudor and Trunsoest (later the Blood Emperor and the Night Emperor) often sat together and chatted before becoming Sequence 1. The content of the chat was all-encompassing, which benefited Servia, who was on duty beside them.
Rex wrote in his notes: "The relationship between the Blood Emperor and the Night Emperor is deeper than imagined."
Reading this, Hobert also thought that after all, these two people had been Solomon's subordinates for a long time. At that time, the two should have established a deep friendship, which was the basis for them to jointly plot to kill their old boss.
However, after becoming Sequence 1, due to the law of Beyonder characteristics, the two still turned against each other and eventually broke out a war between the two empires.
While sighing about the ancients, Hobert continued to read.
In Servia's information, a description caught Rex's attention.
When Tudor and Trunsoest mentioned Solomon once, they both discovered that after Solomon became the "Black Emperor", many changes had taken place in him.
It was not just the divine changes that occurred after becoming a true god, but that he seemed to be affected by some force, and often said some incomprehensible ramblings.
At first, Tudor thought that Solomon was affected by the "True Creator", at that time the church of the "True Creator" was the orthodox church of the Solomon Empire, and the two true gods had a close cooperative relationship.
Tudor and Trunsoest had complained more than once that this "True Creator" always said some incomprehensible ramblings, which made them very annoyed.
These complaints are recorded in other places.
In the conversation realizing that Solomon seemed to be a little wrong, Tudor and Trunsoest also discovered through the exchange of information that Solomon had issued orders to them to find a genie, and whenever he mentioned that genie, some incomprehensible ramblings would appear in Solomon's mouth.
So the two guessed that Solomon might not be affected by the "True Creator", but by an unknown force.
Hobert's eyes narrowed when he saw this: Genie!
For safety's sake, he simply performed a sacrificial ritual, sacrificing two notebooks from different eras to the "Nation of Disorder".
Sitting on the "Iron Throne", Hobert looked at Rex's annotation on this description again: "This reminds me of the description in the family documents. After the ancestor Trunsoest became the Night Emperor, he also looked for a special genie, and he finally found this genie. It is said that the genie contains the secret to obtaining power stronger than true gods."
