Part 2: The Faceless Man Chapter 181: “A Tale of the Spirit World
Klein knew very well why Ms. “Justice” was looking at herself. Knowing about the Lanlus incident, the other party must have thought that she had had a lot of fights with the “Real Creator” both openly and secretly, and that it was normal for her to be in possession of the corresponding items, and that there might even be a considerable number of them.
From a logical point of view, her idea does not have any problem, and in fact, several times and the “real Creator” deal with me also really have items that fit the description …… Klein sighed in his heart.
Help or not to help the little “sun” for him there is no question, Silver City is located in the “God’s Abandoned Land” there are many monsters, can collect a lot of north and south of the continent has been quite rare extraordinary materials, and, their history has not been interrupted, and has not been the gods which church distorted, the most intuitively, the most important thing is that the gods are not the same as the gods. The Church has not been distorted, the most intuitive presentation of the stories and secrets of the pre-cataclysmic period, which contains a lot of valuable knowledge, whether from the standpoint of the leader of the Tarot Association, or simply consider only the interests, until it is completely hopeless, Klein does not intend to give up on the small “sun”, to give up on the city of silver.
However, there are words that are not suitable for Mr. “Fool” to say.
Just as Audrey “Justice” looked at Mr. “Fool”, who was shrouded in a thick gray fog, with expectant eyes, the silent “World” spoke:
”I have an item that contains the spiritual pollution of the ‘True Creator’.”
He was referring to the “All-Black Eye” left behind by the “Secret Puppet Master” Rosago.
”An item that contains the spiritual contamination of the ‘True Creator’?” “Inverted Man” Alger was organizing his words while thinking, “This may help the ‘Sun’, those members of the exploration team whose thinking and viewpoints have been distorted, once they sense the ‘Real Creator’s’ spiritual contamination, they will be able to see the ‘Sun’ and the ‘Real Creator’s’ spirit. Real Creator’s’ spirit right next to them, odds are they’ll mutate on the spot.”
”The World” looked over at “The Sun” and hissed a laugh:
”Little one, I can lend you that item, but what can you give as payment?”
Seeing the hopeful “Sun” Derek’s mind spun fast, remembering at once what had happened at the previous gathering, he said in a hurry:
”I can help you collect the characteristics of the Human Skin Phantom, the Thousand Faces Hunter’s brain mutation pituitary, one of the Thousand Faces Hunter’s blood, and will also try to get the way to remove the mental contamination of the out-of-control person within the item, whichever one you get first, you can use it as payment.”
Of these, the human-skinned Phantom was relatively easier to encounter, belonging to the more fearsome of the various monsters in the depths of darkness.
At this moment, Derek was not considering the question of whether or not the value was equal, although borrowing an item that was contaminated by the real Creator was obviously inferior to the one and only condition he proposed in normal times, but under the current situation, the other party would probably bite the bullet and accept whatever high price they offered, so it would be better to take the initiative to show his sincerity.
”World” nodded gently:
”Very well, I will ask Mr. ‘Fool’ for help and lend it to you.”
As he spoke, he materialized the shape of the “All Black Eye” and added:
”It’s equivalent to a Sequence 5 Extraordinary, if you lose it, you must make amends, and return it to me as soon as this matter is over.”
These were the words that Klein, in his capacity as a “Fool”, could not say. If a deity-level hidden existence were to say “compensation” and “remember to give it back to me”, that Goggle would have fallen from the sky to the ground. If all he said was “compensation” and “remember to pay me back”, he would have fallen from the sky to the ground.
In addition, Klein also considered the hidden dangers that existed in the future:
Items such as the “All Black Eyes” belonged to the type of items he had used in the real world, and if he brought in new members who knew about this matter, the other party would be able to confirm something from this point, so Sherlock Moriarty equaled “the world” significantly more than Sherlock Moriarty equaled “Yugi”. So, Sherlock Moriarty equals “World” is much better than Sherlock Moriarty equals “Fool”.
The strength does not match the position, you can only tremble, like walking on thin ice, like facing the abyss …… “Fool” Klein sighed silently.
Seeing that Mr. “Fool” did not deny the request of the “world”, and did not open his mouth to point out that there are problems with this deal, Derek was pleased and relieved, and hastily agreed to all the requirements.
Meanwhile, Audrey “Justice” was sincerely happy for the little “Sun”.
”Inverted man” Alger thought for a moment, slowly exhaled, and said to the “sun” with deliberation:
”Do not be too optimistic, exactly how to do must be grasped, first of all is to pick the time, can not let themselves into danger, it is best to have only one exploration team members present, and the other residents of the Silver City, or they are in the state of being imprisoned and sealed …… you have to use the wall of spirituality to close the container where the item is located, so that no one will be able to see it. You must close the container where the item is located with the wall of spirituality in advance, so that no one can directly notice it, so that you can control the progress of the matter in your own hands. …… In addition, you also have to consider how to hide the item afterward, so as not to let the ‘Council of Six’ discover it, or you will not be exonerated! ……”
If such a good liar dies, it will be very difficult for me to get the information about the “God’s Abandoned Land” and the secret stories of the ancient times …… “The Hanged Man” doesn’t see any problem in offering his help. The “Hanged Man” doesn’t see any problem in offering his help.
Under his guidance, Derek “The Sun” gradually came up with a complete plan and clarified a few key points that needed attention.
”Thank you, Mr. ‘Inverted Man’, thank you, thank you all.” He sincerely expressed his gratitude to the members of the Tarot Club, which gave Audrey “Justice” a sense of satisfaction for doing a good deed.
The matter of the “Sun” came to an end, and “Magician” Forsyth, who had witnessed the whole thing, suddenly had an idea.
She ruffled her long, slightly curled hair and said:
”I would like to know which family the ‘Apprentice’ pathway belongs to. I’m willing to trade one of the chapters of ‘Spirit World Insights’, which is considered the ravings of a rhapsodist, but based on my experience of going in and out of the Spirit World on several occasions, quite a few of the descriptions in it are true.”
Insights into the Spirit World was one of the occult notes Mrs. Annalisa had bequeathed to her, and its contents were so logically confusing and outlandish that just reading them would make one cranky, but after physically entering and exiting the Spirit World three times for a variety of reasons, Forsyth had discovered that what was recorded in the note might not be ravings.
The Spirit World? “Klein the Fool leaned back slightly and maneuvered the World to speak before the Hanged Man could answer:
”I know the answer, and can give you some free information accordingly.”
He knew very well that the Inverted Man could also answer the Magician’s question.
It’s not good to have competition, it’s all about the freebies …… Klein silently slandered.
”Okay.” Forsyth was bursting with joy.
She realized that the Tarot Society was indeed quite a bit more upscale than the other circles of extraordinary people she had attended before, and many difficult questions could be answered here.
At that moment, The World asked in a husky voice:
”Do you wish to hear the answers only for yourself, or for all?”
”Magician” Voorhees considered for a few seconds, and, surprising Audrey “Justice” and the others, said:
”Let’s say it like this.”
In her opinion, the answer to her question would be of little help to the others, and it would not matter if they knew it, whereas if Mr. “World” had omitted something, or described it incompletely, and it so happened that the others knew the corresponding content, then she herself would be able to seek to complete it with the same chapters of the Spirit World Insights.
She thought this was even more important.
”The World” said with little surprise, low and husky:
”In the Fourth Age, the ‘Apprentice’ pathway was held by the House of Abraham, which later flowed into the House of Tamara, with whom they had long been allied, and in the Fifth Age, the current Age, the ‘Society of Spiritual Knowledge’ also had the ‘Apprentice’ and ‘Juggler’s Master’ magic potion formulas, which are widely believed to be related to the Abraham and Tamara families, of course, there are also people who suspect that the ‘Spiritual Knowledge Society’ is actually the ‘Cult of the Magician’ in disguise.”
Considering that Ms. “Magician” had already met a member of the Abraham family, Klein manipulated the “world” to add another sentence:
”It is said that the Abraham family has been suffering from a bloodline curse for a long time, and had to avoid the danger by living in a decentralized form.”
Bloodline curse? “Magician Forsyth’s eyes widened instantly, thinking of his own encounter.
Mrs. Annalisa’s husband belonged to the Abraham family, and that Mr. Lawrence also belonged to the Abraham family? That’s why she said that as long as you’re not from this family, you won’t be cursed, but, but I used that bracelet, and it belongs to the Abrahams family? Once again, Voorhees’ mind was eaten up by regret.
The “Hanged Man” Alger and “Justice” Audrey were also hearing about the Abraham bloodline curse for the first time, and each of them had their own thoughts, but no one said anything for a short while.
After a while, “Magician” Voorhees took a deep breath and said:
”Thank you, Mr. ‘World’, you have unlocked the greatest doubt in my mind.
”I will make a copy of the first chapter of ‘Spiritual Insights’ and offer it to Mr. ‘Fool’ after the party is over, Mr. ‘Fool’, may I?”
…… “Magician” is a descendant of the Abraham family? No wonder she can physically go in and out of the spirit world. …… She should be in possession of a corresponding magical item. …… “Inverted Hanging Man” looked at the other party with a huff.
Forsyth is from the Abraham family? She was born into an ancient family that dates back to the Quaternary Period? Audrey “Justice” nodded her head as if in thought.
After receiving the affirmative answer from Mr. “Fool”, “Magician” Voorhees relaxed and begged for the extraordinary materials “Spirit Eater’s Stomach Pouch” and “Deep Sea Marlin’s Blood”. The “Sun” didn’t go out during this period of time, so there was no harvest, and the “Inverted Man” only mentioned that “the blood of the deep-sea marlin” had a clue. “There are clues.
The “Wind Favors” potion formula is also still unavailable, and Audrey “Justice” has not rushed to buy the “psychiatrist” formula, as she is about to join the Psychological Alchemy Society.
Klein wanted to sell one of the werewolf’s extraordinary traits and one of the vials of biotoxin, but considering how well the latter would go with the psychic state, and considering the current financial situation of the members, he gave up on this plan for the time being.
The trading portion of the party quickly came to an end, and the party came to an exchange of insights.
”Justice,” Audrey said with a light smile as she slowly looked around the room:
”Last week, an interesting case took place in Berkland, with the protagonist known as the chivalrous thief ‘The Black Emperor’.”
