Hanged Man Alger, who was cut off from sight and hearing, tapped his knees with his fingers impatiently under the table, but his expression remained calm. He knew that although he could not see other people, Mr. Fool could easily see his own expression, and he could not make any strange moves at this time.

After just learning about "Card of Blasphemy" and Mr. Fool's purpose of collecting them, Alger's outlook on Tarot Club's future status has reached a new height. No matter what, he must continue to participate in Tarot Club!

Suddenly his eyes lit up, and he realized that the separate communication between Empress and Justice had ended.

"You can communicate freely."

Fool said.

"Mr. Sun, is there any new news about the 'Exploration Team Leader' who was imprisoned next door to you that you mentioned last week?"

He quickly asked Sun next to him, fearing that he would be locked into a small dark room where he could not hear or see by some people's "alone communication".

I hate communicating alone!

He cursed.

"I was about to discuss this matter with you," said Sun, who was tall, but his tone was contrary to his size. "After the last Tarot Club, I just returned to 'City of Silver', and he appeared behind me in the cell where I was held in solitary confinement, asking if I was looking for him!"

Mr. Sun's tone seemed to be telling a horror story, which made everyone frown. They even felt that the temperature of the palace in Gray Fog dropped several degrees, but there was a trace of hope in their hearts, just like readers waiting for the new chapter of a serialized story.

"He lost control at the time, his head was split open, and his body was covered with mouths. I was very scared and tried to attack the monster with Beyonder Ability, but the effect was not good. Then the chief of City of Silver, the highest-ranking elder, arrived and killed him, as well as his 'Amon' clone, released me from the prison, and let me go home on my own."

"Amon?"

Alger frowned and asked subconsciously, but he was not too surprised in his heart. In last week's Tarot Club, they had analyzed that there was probably something wrong with the former Exploration Team Leader who had been in contact with Amon. Mr. Sun was imprisoned next to him. This was done by the elders of City of Silver to test each other.

Facts have proved that this kind of temptation is very "successful".

"Yes, the chief said it was just his clone. He looks like this..."

With the help of Mr. Fool, Sun manifested a light curtain, and a male figure wearing a black pointed hat and a robe of the same color with black hair and black pupils appeared on it. He wore a monocle in his right eye, like a young scholar.

As everyone looked at the image of "Amon" and searched for this face in their memories, Mr. Sun continued to tell about his terrifying experience.

"After I returned home, I prayed to Mr. Fool and told Him these experiences, but when I prayed, He discovered that 'Amon' was not dead, but possessed me..."

Wait, Blasphemer Amon, possessed by "Sun", came here?

Hanged Man Alger It only took a second to understand the meaning of this sentence. He subconsciously stood up and ducked to the side, but then he realized: Mr. Fool Since the Tarot Club meeting was held normally, this matter must have been resolved.

Reacting too quickly may be my weakness...

Looking at the other members who were still confused and motionless, Alger sighed, sat back on the high-backed chair, and asked:

"Then what?"

"Mr. Fool taught me a ritual, through which he sent his Angel, and Purification Amon's Avatar, allowing me to spit out a small worm and get rid of the possessed Misfortune."

Sun answered honestly, showing his image in Mr. Fool's eyes that day on the light screen: the young "Amon" wore a soft hat and a monocle in his eye socket. Like a poisonous snake, it wrapped around Sun's Spirit Body. Then the shadow was cleared, and Mr. Sun returned to normal, spitting out a small transparent insect with twelve rings.

"Angel...Angel?"

Alger was a little stunned and couldn't help but look at Mr. Fool who was sitting at the head of the long table.

In mysticism, this word represents Sequence 2, which is absolute strength, and the person Angel serves is most likely a real God!

Although Alger has long viewed Mr. Fool this way, having "Angel" as his subordinate will undoubtedly explain his identity from the side.

Unseeable God!

He immediately looked away, feeling a burning sensation in his chest.

A party held by God, of which I am a member, and one of the founding members of Oldest One...

With this excitement, Alger listened carefully to Mr. Sun's subsequent narrative, knowing that he suspected something was wrong with the expedition team that returned to City of Silver from the temple of "True Creator", especially the elder among them, "Shepherd" Lovia, but he didn't know how to report it to the other elders and the chief.

Combining his own experience in reporting his colleagues in Church of Storms and taking advantage of this, Alger quickly helped Sun formulate a plan to avoid exposing himself and Tarot Club Under the premise of E and Mr. Fool, these Expedition Team members who were contaminated by "True Creator" were lured out of control and exposed, so as to reasonably report the other party.

Even in this process, the suspicions about Mr. Sun can be cleared away, allowing him to escape safely, who may have been suspected by other elders, killing two birds with one stone.

Several people worked together and spoke one after another to help Mr. Sun, who lacked fighting experience, perfect the plan, but they were worried about the last step, that is, how to lure Expedition Team members out of control.

Fortunately, Mr. "World" provided a "All-Black Eye" for a fee. It is said that the characteristics of this piece from Sequence 5 Beyonder are contaminated by True Creator. Once the believers of True Creator sense this contamination, they may not be able to control themselves and lose control on the spot.

"Just like Ms. D was stuffed into the 'Crimson Eye' by me..."

Listening to Hanged Man's idea, Angel thought secretly.

It's a pity that the crimson eye that can detect surrounding creatures has been lost. It probably fell into the hands of Nighthawks and became a serialized Sealed Artifact...

However, this Beyonder Characteristic of Sequence 6 is still a contaminated Beyonder Characteristic. In exchange for the characteristics of two Sequence 6 and one Sequence 5, it is actually a huge profit, which slightly appeases the fragile mind of Angel. She was not the kind of person who was dissatisfied. She quickly adjusted her mentality. Looking at the venue that fell into silence after Mr. Sun thanked everyone, she asked:

"Mr. Hanged Man, and everyone, who can contact Artisan who can make Mystical Item? I have some Beyonder Characteristic that I want to make into the corresponding Mystical Item."

Although she was attached to other people, she mainly asked Hanged Man. The other party had provided the information of Artisan Kavi. At this time, there might be other people to choose from.

"Some?"

Hanged Man repeated first, then looked around him, and after finding no one responded, he said slowly:

"I was able to contact someone who has cooperated with me for many years. Although the fee is more expensive, the finished product is very good."

"I'll pay for the introduction."

Seeing someone responding, Angel quickly added that after getting Miss Justice's promise of 5,000 pounds, she felt rich again.

"Very well, I will contact him and I should be able to give you an answer next week."

Hanged Man nodded with satisfaction.

Angel guessed from this that Artisan is probably outside the North Continent, such as the Rhoside Islands. Because Hanged Man is currently at sea, the Artisan he can contact as soon as possible should also be there.

This is also in line with her requirements. In order to avoid being traced to the source of Beyonder Characteristic, she deliberately did not choose the Artisan Kavi she knew. If the new Artisan is not even in the Loen Kingdom, that would be perfect.

After reaching the transaction intention, Angel felt it was time to "share" yesterday's battle. She first glanced at Miss Justice from the corner of her eye, and then said with a smile:

"Last night, Backlund had a Oracle named 'Aurora Order' who appeared at Hillston Borough."

"Aurora Order" and the True Creator they believe in have become one of the hot topics on Tarot Club. Just now, they were discussing how to take advantage of being True Creator's contaminated Beyonder Characteristic attracted the followers of the evil god beside Mr. Sun. At this time, everyone pricked up their ears when they heard Angel mention the topic again.

Even "The Sun" who came from the mysterious "Silver City" and had no idea where Backlund was or what the Hillston District was about stopped thinking about the follow-up actions and listened carefully.
