According to the "Hypnosis" and "suggestion" abilities that Angel learned from Audrey, Hvin Rambis who is Sequence 4's "Manipulator" should never directly enter the Sea of Consciousness of a Beyonder who is one Sequence taller than him, and say words such as "Let's talk about the next task" that can easily arouse resistance.

He should first soften the target's psychological defense through a conversation with a calm atmosphere and friendly content, then find an opportunity to sneak into Great Sea of Consciousness, secretly enter the other party's "island" on the sea, find some nodes that can change the target's attitude without endangering the other party's safety, and at the same time modify these key points through language and Beyonder Ability to achieve the purpose of hinting and Hypnosis.

Otherwise, even if it is Beyonder who is the same as Sequence, as long as Hypnosis involves something that the target attaches great importance to, or directly threatens his life, the target will subconsciously resist. As for this "abnormality", the divine Demigod will be aware of it almost immediately and get rid of the Hypnosis state.

Unfortunately, in the eyes of Hvin Rambis, "Christine Teresa" is just a "Pleasure" Demoness who escaped from Intis to Loen. He may have accumulated a lot of wealth, and even owns one or two decent Mystical Item, but it is absolutely impossible to resist a "Spectator" Demigod Hypnosis.

He can even directly set off a storm in Great Sea of Consciousness, causing the opponent to be infected with Mental Plague in an instant, causing him to lose control, go crazy, or directly issue a "suicide" order. Although this will make the opponent resist, the gap between the two Sequence can prevent any accidents from happening.

Therefore, when Hvin Rambis was walking on the beach, as if he was the master here, Angel, floating above his own Island of Consciousness, whose figure was only visible to him, almost laughed out loud.

At the same time, in reality, she followed the instructions, found a single sofa to sit on, and asked with some confusion:

"Professor Rambis? I saw you here a month ago, but just now... I can't remember some things. It's like I saw a yellowed photo, and I have some memories, but it's like reading someone else's story..."

Her tone of voice was confused and Affliction, but it was not all pretending, but showed her true feelings after being modified by "Angel of Imagination" Adam to cover up the truth.

This performance was very effective. Rambis, with a kind expression and calm eyes, sighed softly and said slowly:

"It's not important. Do you remember what I said last time?"

Angel nodded, and his expression quickly returned to normal:

"Remember, you asked me to boldly follow my inner thoughts, put off preparations for the wedding with Dwayne Dantès, and find my true love among women of noble status... I tried to pass this idea to Audrey, but she didn't seem to accept it."

There was distress in her words, and she didn't seem to care about her relationship with her fiancé. Instead, she was extremely frustrated because she couldn't get close to the Audrey Hall.

"This is normal. Audrey has a very traditional personality under her family's upbringing. She won't do too many deviant behaviors. Moreover, she has other tasks under my arrangement. You don't need to get too close to her, just maintain a normal friendship."

Hvin chuckled and glanced sideways in the direction of the hall where the psychology salon was being held.

During Angel's "surveillance" just now, he praised the effect of the "intelligence" deliberately released by Audrey on Psychology Alchemists, and provided the complete Sequence 5 "Dreamwalker" Potion formula as a reward for her contribution this month.

Of course, Potion's materials still need to be obtained by Audrey. This important task is to respond positively to the advances of several adult and unmarried Prince during the autumn social gathering that is about to begin in September, and to express in front of the Earl Hall that he wants to make a lifelong decision.

There is no doubt that the purpose of this "task" is to make Audrey accept the pursuit of a certain Prince and get married at the right time, so that the relationship between the Earl Hall family and the royal family will be closer.

This is undoubtedly contrary to Audrey's current thinking, and will make Earl Hall, who is also the spokesperson of New Party and Church of the Evernight Goddess among the nobility, subject to the suspicion of his colleagues, and create a rift between Three Great Churches.

Fortunately, Audrey was also blessed by Mr. Fool and should not be affected by this hint... Angel thought about it and further confirmed the speculation that the person standing behind Hvin Rambis was a member of the royal family.

However, he actually thought that one of the original members of Tarot Club, "Justice" Audrey, had a traditional character and would not deviate from the norm... When everyone was roped in to join Gray Fog, she was the most excited one...

Keeping a smile on his Island of Consciousness, Angel makes his real body question:

"But what should I do next?"

"Have you had contact with Georgina Augustus Duchess before?"

Hvin did not answer her question. Instead, he leaned forward slightly and his expression became more serious as he asked.

At the same time, the other Hvin on Island of Consciousness turned his wrist slightly. The beach and rocks around him did not change, but Angel had an inexplicable desire to talk.

Of course, when he was awake and under the protection of Angel, this desire was very restrained, but Angel still pretended to be thinking, and answered seriously after a moment:

"She invited me to a mansion in Empress Borough and asked me some questions about the reason why I came to Backlund and my relationship with 'Demoness Sect'... In the end, she felt that I had done a good job in cooperating with the military and invited me to become a long-term partner."

She concealed the key information of "Red Haired Woman" and "Golden Queen" and revealed other unimportant information to show that she had indeed been attacked by Hypnosis and had no intention of resisting.

Hvin Rambis nodded with satisfaction and suddenly asked:

"Did she make you sign a contract? A real 'contract'."

Angel immediately nodded and replied:

"Yes, the content of the contract is..."

At this point, she frowned and her words became hesitant, as if she was fighting some kind of power from deep within.

"Okay, no need to go on, I can guess what the contents of the contract are roughly," Hvin doesn't seem to want Angel to violate a "Arbiter" Demigod made the agreement and immediately stopped her, "What you have to do next is very simple. Attend the dance held by Duke Negan Jr. this weekend night. Duchess Georgina will also attend. And if my guess is correct, she should have invited you."

Indeed, the invitation letter from Georgina was delivered to my home yesterday, and with my current status, I should not be invited by Duke Negan, so I have not responded yet... Angel was startled, and combined with the previous "instructions" from Hvin Rambis, I had an ominous premonition in my heart.

"I want you to attend that dance and get close to Duchess Georgina. This is not difficult if you have already been in contact." Sure enough, Hvin then formally issued his "instruction." "And compared to the new Duke Negan, this Duchess is an easier 'prey' for you because she is more interested in women than men."

No wonder it is rumored that Duchess Georgina has always been unmarried. No wonder she not only psychologically oppressed me but also showed a trace of inexplicable interest in the conversation in the middle of the night. No wonder Hvin Rambis made a lot of preparations during the last "Hypnosis"... Angel was surprised, but after connecting many clues, he had a hint of understanding.

She pretended to be "more interested in women" by Hypnosis and said with a smile:

"I also think she has a slight affection for me, but I haven't dared to confirm it... What else do I need to do after getting close to her?"

"Don't reveal your purpose too eagerly, just treat it as a normal social interaction," Hvin Rambis ordered softly, then sat up straight and said solemnly, "Find an opportunity to find out the attitude of her and her 'friends' towards a foreign war."

Sure enough, in the end, we had to do something like this as a "spy"... Angel sighed in his heart and nodded in agreement without hesitation.

But what puzzles her is that Hvin Rambis itself is an adviser to the royal family, and is one of the forces sent by "Psychology Alchemists" to help the royal family. It is directly involved in major affairs such as Great Smog and population transactions. Why does it need to use a wild "Demoness" to ask a noble for his opinion on the war?

Unless the conflict between the faction that Duchess Georgina belongs to and the royal family faction behind Great Smog has become so obvious that Hvin Rambis has no chance to sneak into Demigod and make inquiries in person?

Thinking of the list of nobles Arrodes had shown who were in the same position as Georgina, another doubt in her heart was answered.

"Very good, you can do this slowly according to your own ideas, but not later than October this year." Hvin was very satisfied with Angel's attitude and lay back on the soft sofa. "After completing this 'task', you can choose to exchange this contribution for what you need, such as help on Potion, or some monetary rewards."

Isn't this the same as when he communicated with Audrey? He was obviously using "Hypnosis" and "hints" to force others, but he acted like he was conducting a fair transaction. Is this his way of maintaining his inner balance, or is it the sequelae of some kind of acting... Angel thought about it, his expression became brighter, and he asked with some expectation:

"Can I choose the Potion formula of 'Affliction' Demoness?"

"No problem. After figuring out Georgina Augustus's attitude, I will prepare the formula for you to promote Sequence 5."

Hvin Rambis smiled kindly and nodded slightly as if agreeing to the request of a coquettish junior.

But the other Hvin Rambis located on Angel's Island of Consciousness has cold eyes and a somewhat disdainful expression.

He seemed to have no intention of honoring this agreement at all.
