Just Cleared an Aurora Order Stronghold
"Do you have the Black Knight's recipe?"
Luther Ze had already given up hope, but the tall young man codenamed [Sun] gave him an unexpected surprise.
"It's not that I have it, uh."
The Sun appeared slightly hesitant.
"Just tell me if you have any questions."
Luther said it simply.
"Actually, this recipe belongs to an elder in our City of Silver," [Sun] said, "She is Sequence 5 Shepherd."
This was actually a topic he planned to share during the free discussion session—Elder Lovia, who was suspected of having converted to the faith of the True Creator, was released from the bottom of the Round Tower where she Imprisonment. This was because, firstly, after seven days, it was confirmed that she had not lost control; and secondly, because she had contributed a Sequence 4 Potion recipe to City of Silver.
--It was a Black Knight's Potion recipe, which happened to be from her own Pathway. According to her, it was discovered "accidentally".
"Shepherd?"
Luther's tone turned slightly colder, "Is she a follower of the True Creator?"
"It should be"
"[The Sun] "Derrick said.
"I see."
Luther thought for a moment, then asked, "Where is your City of Silver?"
Since he's a guy who believes in True Creator, that makes things easier. Just kill him and take the formula. However, with his current geographical knowledge, he's never heard of "City of Silver," let alone knows where it is.
"I'm sorry, you probably can't reach the area where City of Silver is located."
"[The Sun] "Derrick said sincerely.
"Can't go? Why?"
Luther couldn't help but ask.
"Because City of Silver is located in the 'Forsaken Land of the Gods.'"
Alger, the Hanged Man, added in a low voice.
Forsaken Land of the Gods?
Roselle's diary seemed to mention Luther briefly, recalling that the title appeared in the three diaries kept by Blackthorn Security Company, but he didn't know any more detailed information.
Judging from what they said, it was a place that couldn't connect with this world. Could it really be as the words describe, that the land was abandoned by the gods? Yet Mr. Fool was able to pull the people from that place onto the Gray Fog.
This [Sun] has a very unique background. Indeed, the members of the Tarot Club are not so simple. Although their Sequence is a bit low, each of them probably has their own special characteristics.
Luther pondered for a moment and did not ask any further questions.
A brief silence fell over the Tarot Club. Aside from [The Magician] and [The World], who had already requested materials, no one else seemed inclined to buy recipes or materials. [The Sun] appeared preoccupied, [The Hanged Man] remained cautious, and [Justice] had joined the Psychology Alchemists, from which the relevant recipes and Potion could be obtained.
"Oh, right, you can sell things here too, right?"
After a moment of silence, Luther raised his head again.
"Yes, Mr. Temperance, do you have anything to sell?"
[Justice] Audrey answered his question with a strong Consciousness of ownership, and asked with a smile.
"Perfect timing, I have a batch of Beyonder Characteristic that I need to sell."
Luther said.
Purchasing Sequence Four Potion and Main Ingredient would certainly be extremely expensive. Although he already had 8,000 pounds in cash, it was still far from enough. So he planned to sell some unnecessary materials and Characteristic, but selling these things in Backlund would be too conspicuous and easily attract excessive attention.
Audrey's smile faltered for a moment.
A batch.?
She tilted her head and repeated the question to herself in confusion.
When will we ever be able to describe such a precious material with Beyonder Characteristic as a "batch"?
"[Temperance] Mr., what are your Beyonder Characteristic?"
She asked Consciousness.
"Sequence 6: one copy each of the Judge and Devil Beyonder Characteristic, two copies of the Rose Bishop Beyonder Characteristic. Hmm," Luther recalled for a moment, then continued, "Also, one copy of the Psychiatrist Beyonder Characteristic of Sequence 7, four copies of the Shadow Ascetic Characteristic, six copies of the Listener extraordinary trait of Sequence 8, and more than ten copies of the Secrets Suppliant extraordinary trait of Sequence 9."
The Psychiatrist's Beyonder Characteristic come from the shattered Mirror, the Judge from Harras, and the Devil from Mr. A's Grazing Lamb, and the one he repeated. As for the complete set of Beyonder Characteristic of the Secrets Suppliant Pathway, they naturally come from the selfless dedication of the members of the Backlund Aurora Order.
As Luther tallied his inventory, he spoke. He was so focused on taking stock that he didn't notice the Above the Gray Fog gradually fading into a deathly silence as he explained.
That's way too much!
Where did [Temperance] get so many Beyonder Characteristic?
For a moment, everyone was stunned and speechless. Even Klein, who was very familiar with Luther, was somewhat surprised. He only knew that Luther had killed many extraordinary beings and acquired a lot of things, but when these were actually put into specific numbers, they seemed unreal.
Of all the people, Alger the Hanged Man was the first to notice the problem.
How come the Secrets Suppliant Pathway has so many Beyonder Characteristic? And they're present in almost half of the Sequence from top to bottom!
"I've noticed that you possess many of the Characteristic of the Secrets Suppliant Pathway."
He asked.
After observing him secretly, Alger gained some understanding of Mr. Temperance's temperament and knew that the man disliked beating around the bush, so he asked directly.
"Oh, it's nothing. I raided an Aurora Order stronghold and killed all their members," Luther said casually, as if he were talking about eating and drinking.
"Therefore, the Beyonder Characteristic related to the Secrets Suppliant are all extracted from members of the Aurora Order. You should know the relationship between Potion and Characteristic, right? They are basically equivalent to two Potion Main Ingredient of the corresponding Sequence."
He sensed that the other members had become somewhat quiet, and then introduced them in this way.
"We know that Mr. Fool has already taught us this."
Audrey nodded blankly.
This new member has already shocked everyone so much that she's become somewhat numb to it.
"Good to know. So, anyone interested in buying it?"
Luther looked around and asked, "I won't raise the price; we'll go for the market price."
He had roughly calculated that if he sold all his belongings, the total price would be around £26,000. Of course, it wouldn't be that easy to sell them all.
As Luther had expected, while everyone was shocked, no one took the initiative to make a purchase.
Although Beyonder Characteristic like Sequence 6 and Sequence 7 are valuable, I have no use for them even if I buy them.
"Justice," Audrey thought with deep regret.
Suddenly, she heard the Hanged Man speak.
"You spoke too quickly just now. Could you list out the specific Characteristic?"
"Can."
Luther nodded, then stared blankly at the table in front of him for a moment.
There was no paper or pen.
"You only need to imagine paper and 'express' the ideas in your mind, and you can materialize the corresponding objects and descriptions."
Alger reminded him.
This truly is the Divine Kingdom of Mr. Fool.
Luther readily agreed and quickly materialized the list of Characteristic, which he then passed on to Alger.
