came to the Bar of the Brave again around 7:30.
This time, Abner found the apartment where the party was held last time without Kaspers’ guidance.
After simply disguising himself and Hugh with a cloak and mask, he sounded the secret signal.

Soon, he saw the small wooden board on the door open and some eyes looked out.
Abner knew it was the attendant of the old man called “Eye of Wisdom”.

After a process no different from a party, they were taken to the familiar living room.
Under the light of a flickering, dimly lit candle, they saw the old man sitting on the single sofa.

The old man “Eye of Wisdom” saw the two people coming in and, after looking at them, said with a smile, “It seems that this lady needs help!”

“Your eyes are as bright as a torch!” Abner complimented.
He had to thank Emperor Roselle for making many idioms come from him, although the source was all from him.

“You don’t need to flatter me.
After we finish the deal, I’ll give you a separate test to see if you’ve really mastered half of the information in less than a day,” the “Eye of Wisdom” said.
He then turned to Hugh and said, “This lady was cursed by the whisper of the ‘Cold-Blooded One’, but I think this curse has been weakened.
There’s not much depravity left.
As long as you purify it with a sun brooch, it will be fine.”

Hugh glanced at the other party in admiration and begged, “You’re right, please help me.”
The “Eye of Wisdom” nodded and, after saying “wait a moment,” got up and walked into the back room.
He brought back a dark golden sun brooch in the shape of a bird.
It was clear that there was a little sweat on the old man’s face.

“This is the sun brooch,” he said with a smile.
“It gives you the ability to exorcise evil spirits, purify, and use some sun domain spells.
The flaw is that as long as you wear it, you will never feel cool and will always feel like you’re in the hot summer in the south.”

Abner sighed inwardly at the old man’s constant showboating, but he couldn’t deny the warmth and bright light emanating from the sun brooch.
It flowed continuously, turning into a tide and rushing towards the two of them, submerging them at the same time.

Tens of seconds later, everything returned to normal.
Hugh and Abner felt warm, comfortable, and at ease, like they had been soaking in a hot spring or sunbathing.

During this process, Abner covertly lowered his gaze and opened the “Pure White Eye.” He saw with his own eyes that the black lines on Hugh’s forehead dissipated instantly under the light, leaving her forehead clean.

“Okay, the help I’ve given is complete.
Don’t you want to honor the reward? I hope the past of the Fourth Epoch can satisfy me,” the old man “Eye of Wisdom” said with a smile as he put the brooch back in the back room.

“Thank you very much for your help!” Hugh said sincerely.

“That’s not necessary.
This is a deal, isn’t it?” the “Eye of Wisdom” waved his hand and turned his attention to Abner again.

Abner quickly cleared his throat and told a story from the novel “Lord of the Mysteries” about the emergence and demise of the Trensost-Tudor United Empire after the collapse of Solomon’s First Empire.
He pointed out that the capital of the United Empire at that time was Backlund.
Of course, he didn’t talk too much about the gods and angels, knowing that would be courting death.

These stories not only fascinated Hugh, but the well-informed “Eye of Wisdom” also changed his sitting posture, clearly very interested.

“It turns out that after the fall of the Solomon Empire, there was still an era of double consuls? This explains a lot of my doubts before… But this doesn’t line up with the War of the Four Emperors? And how did the United Empire disintegrate?” the “Eye of Wisdom” frowned, always feeling a little puzzled.

Abner hesitated for a moment before cryptically mentioning, “Because the Black Emperor of the Solomon Empire has been resurrected!” He didn’t say any more because he was afraid of attracting the attention of some existences if he said too much.
After all, this place was not the gray fog above.

“The Black Emperor is resurrected…” the “Eye of Wisdom” nodded thoughtfully.
His level was not high enough, so he just vaguely felt that the “Black Emperor” might not be as simple as a title.

Hugh was even more confused, but she didn’t ask too many questions.
She just kept it in her heart as knowledge reserve.
She didn’t know that the reason Abner mentioned this period of history was actually to secretly reveal information to her.
After all, the Sequence 0 that George III wanted to become was also the Dark Emperor!”

“I am very satisfied with this reward.
It has greatly enriched and supplemented my understanding of the Quaternary Epoch and allowed me to explore the truth of history one step further.
Praise the God of ‘Knowledge and Wisdom’,” the “Eye of Wisdom” said with a satisfied compliment.

He invited Hugh out temporarily and then looked at Abner with a smile.
“According to the agreement, it’s time to check your homework!” he said.
