As for whether this would reveal too much information before the True Creator, Luo Lin did not care. Some information had never been easy to hide, and some of it had even been exposed when Luo Lin summoned the Ancient Sun God. Therefore, Luo Lin did not mind trading certain information for things beneficial to himself.
No matter what, the fact that he could perish together with this world was real. As long as that remained true, the other side could not act without taking it into account.
After all, even the crazed True Creator essentially still wished to protect this world.
It was just a pity about Grisha. Oh, perhaps Sasrir as well... Thinking of the God Almighty born after Adam fused with the True Creator, Luo Lin could not help but feel somewhat sentimental.
Naturally, Xio and Fors had no idea that Luo Lin had already reached an unspoken agreement with the True Creator in that brief span of time. Both deeply troubled by poverty themselves, they instantly nodded in understanding upon hearing his words.
If they had needed to purchase spiritual materials in bulk, they would certainly have haggled carefully as well.
The gathering, which had already been nearing its end, naturally concluded soon after Luo Lin returned.
Luo Lin followed Xio and Fors out of the cabin. Once they boarded the carriage, the three discussed attending the next Beyonder gathering.
"The exact time has not been confirmed yet, but I should receive the details within a week at most. I'll notify you then." Xio said this, then looked at Luo Lin curiously and asked, "Come to think of it, since you can divine, can you divine something like that?"
"I might be able to determine a rough time, but without precise information, it's difficult to obtain a more specific result through divination." Luo Lin shrugged. "After all, divination isn't omnipotent."
"Oh, right..." As though recalling something, Luo Lin looked at Xio and Fors. "You should both count as fairly experienced Beyonders in Backlund. If possible, I'd like to commission you to look into something for me."
"What is it?" Xio immediately sat up straighter. Her bounty hunter instincts had kicked in.
"I want information about an existence called The Fool. He may be connected to the Antigonus Family and is a hidden existence." Luo Lin paused here, then added as he watched the expressions of the two before him subtly change:
"Of course, I'm not asking you to put yourselves in danger. You only need to ask around in your respective circles whether anyone knows of The Fool."
Naturally, Luo Lin was preparing to obtain The Fool's honorific name in the future and join the Tarot Club in a natural manner.
Otherwise, would it not be strange for a transmigrator like him to suddenly know The Fool's honorific name for no reason?
Hmm, would Mr. Fool refuse to pull me into the Tarot Club because I'm a transmigrator and he's afraid of dying from embarrassment? If that happens, he can't blame me for exposing his identity... Luo Lin pondered leisurely, unsure which possibility he was looking forward to more. Either way, it sounded quite entertaining.
Of course, Luo Lin did not deny that he had long since formulated a complete plan for how to join the Tarot Club.
Naturally, Xio and Fors had no idea that Luo Lin was already considering all sorts of ways to torment Mr. Fool. Upon hearing this, they exchanged glances and began considering the danger of the assignment in unison.
In this world, matters involving hidden existences were always extremely dangerous. However, if they were merely gathering information, the danger normally would not be too great.
Just like the True Creator and the Original Witch, they were infamous evil gods. Many Beyonders and even ordinary people knew of their existence, yet as long as one did not foolishly recite their true names or deliberately provoke people or matters related to them, there would not be much danger.
"What kind of payment can you offer?" After thinking for a few seconds, Xio asked.
"Ten pounds as a deposit. If you can uncover relevant information, I'll provide appropriate compensation based on the importance of the intelligence." Luo Lin spoke decisively. The main reason he did not offer a high price was that he was afraid of frightening the two girls before him.
"Alright. I'll ask around for you." Xio nodded just as decisively. It was only gathering a bit of information, and a deposit of ten pounds alone was already quite a generous reward.
"Why do you want to investigate this Fool?" Fors asked curiously. As a writer, her mind was always exceptionally active, and she had already unconsciously imagined all sorts of little scenes.
"At first, it was because a friend of mine was very concerned about such matters. Later, after consulting my family's ancient records, I discovered that this Fool might... have some connection to one of my family's ancestors." Luo Lin shrugged as he spoke:
"You know as well as I do that being connected to a hidden existence is no good thing. Although that ancestor of mine lived a very, very long time ago, what if some curse was passed down... I have to get to the bottom of it before I can feel at ease." At the end, Luo Lin sighed, his expression carrying a hint of worry.
Upon hearing Luo Lin's words, both Xio and Fors instinctively leaned back. It was not their fault; in this world, being connected to a hidden existence was inherently very dangerous.
However, the two quickly calmed down. According to Luo Lin, it was merely his ancestor who had been connected to the hidden existence, so Luo Lin himself was most likely fine.
Fors, who was already troubled by the Full Moon Whispers, thought of her own situation and said with deep empathy, "Curses really are troublesome."
"What, does Doctor have this kind of trouble?" Luo Lin looked at Fors with apparent curiosity.
"I..." Fors hesitated. Thinking of the Magician potion formula she had bought from him, as well as Luo Lin's apparent background in an ancient Beyonder family, she finally made up her mind. "Due to an accident, I hear whispers during the full moon. It has troubled me for a long time."
Although she briefly described her situation, Fors was clearly still cautious and did not reveal more specific details.
Luo Lin was not surprised. He merely adopted a reminiscing expression, hesitated for several seconds, and said, "Whispers during the full moon... I seem to have read about such a condition in my family's ancient records. It is said that members of an ancient family called Abraham were troubled by this curse."
He looked at Fors, his gaze both surprised and probing. "Doctor, are you a member of the Abraham Family?" He acted as though it were real.
Fors was startled. At this stage, she naturally knew nothing about the Abraham Family, but she had once heard Mrs. Anissa mention her husband. Supposedly, her husband's family was an ancient family deeply troubled by the Full Moon Whispers.
Could Mrs. Anissa's husband be a member of the Abraham Family?
Fors formed a tentative guess. Facing Luo Lin's curious gaze, she shook her head. "I'm not a member of the Abraham Family. I just happen to be afflicted by this curse."
