Mystery: The Witch and the Calamity

Louise turned her head slightly stiffly, and looked at the old gentleman beside her. The latter seemed to be very serious, as if she was really asking for her own opinion.

But I have already joined the "Twilight Hermit Society". Even if I don't agree with this purpose in my heart, do I still dare to say it out? That's not the way to die!

She also replied solemnly:

"The Lord never left."

In fact, even Louise herself didn't think this sentence had any meaning, and it was just a perfunctory one. After all, this sentence would exist in any church scripture, and it was completely "universal formula".

However, the old gentleman seemed to be very touched by this. After thinking for two seconds, he continued to walk forward, and within a short while, he quickly approached the magnificent giant hall not far away.

In this empty environment, Louise subconsciously kept silent until she was about to enter the hall when she suddenly remembered that this old man didn't answer her question at all!

In addition, he said that this hall of giants was imagined by himself, but Louise found that she really stepped into the threshold of the hall, and it was the same.

There is no door or even a wall. The entire hall is only supported by countless towering stone pillars. It seems endless. As soon as you enter, you will feel a sense of simplicity and vicissitudes. It seems that time has stopped here and history has returned to the original point. .

Obviously, this was only Louise's feeling, and the old gentleman standing beside her didn't have any similar feelings. The latter just looked at Louise silently, showing a thoughtful expression.

After a while, Louise recovered from her absence and looked at the hall in front of her again. The strange feeling just now had disappeared.

She saw a group of people, probably members of the Twilight Hermit Society.

However, what puzzled Louise was that these people were not consistent with the group of people she had just seen in the outside world. Of course, there were some overlaps, but there were more differences.

"Outside, the hall you see is fake, and so are the people." The old gentleman at the side answered Louise's doubts in a timely manner.

What this means is that the people I saw just now were also imagined, and now these people are real members of the "Twilight Hermit Society"... Louise was more and more surprised, but also worried that her heart was completely seen through.

As expected of an "audience", they can always come up with so many "bells and whistles".

Louise has always had a basic understanding, that is, the members of the "Twilight Hermit Society" are those high-ranking figures, so it is inevitable to have guesses and imaginations about it... Now her guess has been obtained Confirmed, there are indeed familiar characters here, but there are also more unexpected characters.

These big figures with different identities in the real world, even hostile to each other, are extremely harmonious in this giant-like hall. They sit or stand, or gather together in twos and threes to talk, and they seem extremely relaxed, as if this Just a simple dinner party.

When Louise and the old gentleman beside him walked into the hall, almost everyone's eyes turned to this side, and most people's eyes were on Louise, even those few looked at the old gentleman. members, will soon look to Louise.

"You know, there are not many new members who can join us." The old man said suddenly.

Louise was in a daze. She was no stranger to this way of speaking and tone, which belonged to Russell's speech habits.

At this time, a familiar voice sounded, and a figure appeared in front of the two of them. It was "Old Urchin" Russell.

"You've said what I said again!" he pretended to complain.

The old man smiled, but he didn't respond. He just nodded to Louise, and then walked into the crowd.

Under Louise's gaze, the members of the "Twilight Hermit Society" who are not to be underestimated tacitly made way for the old man, and some people would come forward to have a chat, and the old man would respond cordially , as if he was the main character here.

"Who is he?" Louise asked.

Russell stood side by side with him, and replied in a deep voice:

"He's the one who offered to invite you to join us."

"As for his name, you must be familiar with it. He is a figure that existed in ancient history, one of the leaders in the extraordinary world of human beings, and the founder of Hermes and ancient Hermes, Hermes."

Hermes, this name is deafening, and what surprised Louise even more was that she was confident that she had never had any intersection with this angel, but why would he recommend herself?

Could it be Adam's arrangement?

Now that I know the identity of Hermes, and recalling the conversation between the two during the "rushing" just now, it seems that it is not that simple!

This can be regarded as a "celebrity effect" in a certain sense... Thinking about it, Louise became a little fascinated.

"Well, I didn't lie to you, did I? I told you earlier, you will be surprised." Russell said with a complacent look, pulling Louise's thoughts back.

Louise nodded slightly and said, "It's really shocking."

"However," she suddenly turned around and said, "I've never met this legendary figure, why would he recommend me to join the 'Twilight Hermit Society'?"

Russell clapped his hands without paying attention to the image, and said:

"You're asking the right person. I want to know too, and most of the members here who know the identity of Hermes also want to know."

"But don't forget that you and I met first. If one day you become famous, don't forget me as an old friend... Well, there is also Rebecca!"

Louise chuckled lightly, ignoring the "old urchin" beside him, but he also revealed some news, that is, he might be regarded as a "rare creature" in the "Twilight Hermit Society" at present.

"Probably, every newcomer will be treated like this?" Louise asked herself, but there was no answer.

Noticing that there seemed to be no eyes cast on her in the crowd, Louise suddenly asked:

"What's the purpose of today's gathering? It can't be an orientation ceremony to welcome me, right?"

Russell was stunned for a moment, then clapped his hands and applauded:

"Keep this confident attitude towards life and you will be successful."

Since it was Louise who took the initiative to make a joke, then naturally she would not blame Russell for teasing. She just turned slightly sideways and stared at Russell with burning eyes, as if she could not get an answer and vowed not to give up.

Unfortunately, Russell shrugged and replied:

"I didn't mean to hide it from you, because I didn't know either."
