Seeing that Luther had no intention of speaking further, the other members began the transaction.

Among them, [World] Klein sought to purchase the eyeballs of Six-Winged Gargoyle, and [Sun] Derrick sought to purchase the Fruit of the Radiant Spirit Tree. These were the materials for their respective advancements to "Marionettist" and "Solar High Priest," and [Hermit] Cattleya stated that she could provide both.

During this process, the Hermit discovered that the Sun came from the "Forsaken Land of the Gods," which shocked him and gave him a deeper sense of awe for Mr. Fool.

With the final transaction completed, no one on the Gray Fog dared to ask for any more items.

Without Mr. Fool's prompting, everyone knew it was time to move on to the free discussion session.

Two major events occurred at sea this week.

As Hanged Man spoke, Alger glanced discreetly at the Hermit. He was now certain that she was the "Admiral of Stars." The latter of the two matters was related to the "Moses Ascetic Order," which the "Admiral of Stars" was suspected to be affiliated with.

"I know one of these things happened on Toscarter Island, but what is the other one?"

[Justice] Audrey noticed the Hanged Man's Concealment movements and asked him a question. Of course, she was genuinely interested in it.

"Another thing happened in the Rorsted Archipelago."

[The Hanged Man] Alger dared not look at the Fool at the head of the table, but still Courage to continue speaking.

He encouraged himself in his heart.

It's alright, Alger. Since Mr. Fool has willingly revealed the scepter, it means it's part of His plan. He needs those present to understand that He has replaced Kalvetua. You should consider Mr. Fool's perspective and speak plainly.

With this feeling of tension, he continued:

"The disguised archaeologist Laticia discovered an ancient Elven Ruins on the Symeem Island and took an item from it, indirectly causing the local Sea God, Kalvetua, to nearly collapse."

Strangely enough, even now, the devout followers of "Sea God" still occasionally receive a response.

The events described by the Hanged Man were the very events Klein had experienced, which were the origin of the milky-white scepter on the Bronze Long Table.

Laticia is dead? While exploring an ancient Elven Ruins, [The Hermit] Cattleya had heard of this archaeologist from the same organization, but she wasn't familiar with him. Her attention was more focused on [The Hanged Man's ] description.

When Cattleya heard the Hanged Man say that Kalvetua could still respond to believers even after his death, she suddenly understood and turned to look at the head of the long table—beside the Mr. Fool, where a milky-white scepter lay.

This scepter exudes an almost tangible aura of the Sea and Storm, appearing both sacred and terrifying!

Could it be that Mr. Fool...

Cattleya held her breath for a moment.

The [Hermit] lady seems quite surprised?

Although Cattleya's movements were small, they still caught the attention of [Justice] Audrey. She keenly sensed the change in Cattleya's emotions and, following her gaze, saw the scepter on Mr. Fool's table.

Soon, combining what the Hanged Man had just said, she understood the reason for the Hermit's shock.

The other members also realized what was happening and looked at the scepter on the table.

In fact, as soon as they arrived on the Gray Fog, they noticed that Mr. Fool had an extra object in his hand. But before they could think about it, they were quickly drawn to the new member and [Temperance]'s questioning of the new member. Until now, they gradually realized one thing— Mr. Fool had very likely replaced Kalvetua and become the new Sea God, and this scepter was a symbol of his authority!

Above the Gray Fog, all was silent.

Although people generally believed that the Fool was a god, the shocking truth behind the encounter with something God still left them stunned.

The Hanged Man is incredibly audacious, actually mentioning the Mr. Fool in his speech. No, I should consider this from a different angle: without the Mr. Fool's tacit approval, he wouldn't dare speak. Did he proactively guess the Mr. Fool's thoughts and thus try to share his burdens?

Audrey's mind raced with various thoughts, and she finally figured out the Hanged Man's inner thoughts.

--The Mr. Fool is pleased to discover that "Sea God" has been replaced!

"Mr. Fool."

So she spoke up eagerly.

Ha, everyone here is very smart.

Seeing this, Klein couldn't help but smile inwardly.

In fact, he did intend to do so; otherwise, he wouldn't have placed the scepter on the table. This scepter served two purposes: to elevate his status in front of others and to offer Luther some assistance.

Because the latter is currently a pirate at sea, and he just happened to obtain this scepter, gaining authority in this area, which can become his reliance. By deliberately exposing himself, he was telling Luther that if he encounters danger at sea in the future, he can get help from favorable timing and location!

Under the awe-inspiring gaze of the crowd, he chuckled softly:

"If you ever need anything in the future, you may also pray to me in the Honorific Name of the Sea God."

Now everyone understood completely.

"Thank you for your generosity, and congratulations on your new authority."

Led by [Justice], everyone rose to greet the head of the long table. [Temperance] Luther wasn't the only one pleased; after all, [The Hermit] and [The Hanged Man] were also pirates.

To be honest, there are way too many pirates among my members.

Klein accepted everyone's congratulations with a smile, while secretly thinking to himself.

"As for the other major event at sea, I have very little information on it, so I won't go into details."

When Hanged Man sat down Alger, his legs felt weak, but seeing the Mr. Fool's satisfied expression, he knew he had guessed correctly and understood that he had gained some favor with this god. At this moment, he was both terrified and excited.

Knowing full well that too much talk leads to mistakes, he stopped sharing further information and relinquished the initiative.

Audrey understood his meaning and turned to Temperance Luther. "Mr. Temperance, I've heard that a dragon fell on Toscarter Island. Is that true?"

Miss Justice took the initiative to inquire about Temperance, and the others showed no surprise. Sure enough, everyone present knew that he was the Blood Bishop [Hermit]. As he thought this, he Listening Temperance's words.

Luther nodded and said, "That's right, there is a Dragon."

At this point, he gave [Justice] Audrey a meaningful look. "That was Demigod from the 'Psychology Alchemists,' a member of the Council, codenamed [Gluttony]. I've already killed him."

Then, ignoring Audrey's shock, he turned to the Hanged Man and asked, "By the way, can your Artisan forge Beyonder Item from Demigod materials?"
