"You, cough, Mr. Sparrow, are you leaving?" Danitz suddenly woke up, sat up straight, and looked at the Crazy Adventurer with a fawning expression.

He had a conflicted expression on his face, as if he wanted to say something but didn't dare to.

Klein saw through his little scheme and calmly said:

"The Bounty will take a few more days to arrive. Based on the discussion between Jodson and me, is it alright if you continue to stay with me during this time?"

Danitz breathed a sigh of relief and quickly spoke:

No, no.

Klein nodded, said nothing more, and turned to walk towards the door.

At that moment, he turned to Danitz and couldn't help but ask, "Did you know that Jodson has been hiding his true strength?"

"Huh?" The Great Pirate "Flames" looked puzzled.

As expected, he knew nothing... Klein lost interest in continuing the conversation, turned the handle, left the suite, and headed towards the nearest dock.

He planned to go to Symeem Island to play the role based on the rumors he had heard before.

Inside the room, Danitz still looked completely bewildered.

What hidden strength? Didn't that piece of Dogshit kill Sebas with some Sealed Artifact? He even incurred a huge debt to the captain because of it.

What does Gehrman mean by that? No, I'll ask the captain.

Thinking this, Danitz walked to his Bedroom, intending to use a ritual he had once learned to contact the "Golden Dream" through Mysticism means.

Evening, Symeem Island.

Inside the only Inn in the Port town.

Klein casually found a seat, ordered a local specialty roast meat and bay leaf mushroom soup, and potato bread as his main dish.

While waiting, he subconsciously observed his surroundings, his gaze sweeping over a smiling young gentleman in the corner, who nodded slightly in a friendly manner.

He now wears a different mask, no longer needing to play the Coldness Crazy Adventurer.

The gaze continued to move.

Klein instinctively looked at a beautiful woman with a rather attractive appearance, and then glanced at her three male companions at the same table.

The Leather Boots had fresh mud spots; had they just returned from the Primeval Jungle? Using his "Faceless" abilities, he quickly deduced the Mystery and shifted his attention to the food.

Just as they were about to start eating, Klein saw the young gentleman who had greeted him in a friendly manner wipe his mouth, get up, walk towards the stairs, and disappear from sight.

He didn't think much of it and focused on enjoying the delicious food in front of him.

at the same time.

In the dimly lit corridor upstairs, the young gentleman stopped in front of a room, took out his key from his pocket, Door Opening, and went inside.

Click.

As the door was locked from the inside, he stood there, stunned, a bewildered expression on his face.

Three seconds later, a smile appeared on his lips. He took a Dark Gold book from the bedside table drawer, turned to a page, and quietly began to browse.

"So far, the plan is going smoothly," the young gentleman chuckled to himself.

As he spoke, the flesh on his face writhed wildly, and within a few breaths, another face appeared.

In other words, it's about Lorry's true nature.

To avoid arousing Klein's suspicion, he had just used "Self" and "Thousand Illusions" to temporarily and completely transform himself into an ordinary person.

One of the conditions for lifting the ban is returning to the room after having dinner.

By recovering the memories of the young gentleman, Lorry easily identified Klein and the Laticia three with his "Mystery Pryer" instincts.

Now he could finally push forward with the subsequent arrangements.

With that in mind, Lorry put away the "Book of Dimensions" and began to think about how to fight next, since his opponent was a member of the "Moses Ascetic Order".

The sheer number of people is one factor.

Furthermore, the Sequence is unknown, and it's also unclear whether any Sealed Artifact are present.

After a moment of silence, Lorry's dark eyes flashed, a smile appeared on his lips, and he quickly got up to set up the Wall of Spirituality, imagining a lady.

She was dressed in a black robe, with an open sheepskin bag hanging from her waist, resembling a medieval Witch, and spoke in a hoarse voice:

Good evening, sir. What do you plan to have a divination done this time?

--This woman was also a member of Mr. A's gathering; the "Seer" was someone Lorry had asked to do fortune telling for him on two separate occasions.

Because he was staying at the same Inn as Klein and worried about developing some strange Mysticism connection with him, he didn't fantasize about the Scholarly Man this time.

Lorry sat on the bed and spoke softly:

"I'd like to ask if there's any danger if I act directly tonight."

He knew nothing about the four Laticia, so he couldn't directly divine their strength and could only verify it indirectly through this method.

The Seer nodded slightly, and after a moment's thought, said:

"Can.

"We'll be using the Pendulum Method this time."

As she spoke, she took a Yellow Crystal from her open sheepskin pouch and whispered, "He's in danger if he acts directly tonight."

Repeated seven times in a row.

Lorry saw the Yellow Crystal swing clockwise a long distance, as if it had been launched from a launchpad.

He knew this meant "affirmation".

If I take action tonight, I will face a very high risk!

Lorry's expression turned solemn as he fell into deep thought.

First and foremost, it's certain that none of the four of them possessed High Sequence; otherwise, there would have been no need for them to flee, and they could have simply gone to find the Sea Serpent.

This can also be deduced from the deaths of the four individuals.

Pushing open the door to divinity and becoming Demigod grants one a position of absolute high rank, whether within the orthodox church or Concealment force, and they will not be easily discarded.

In other words, they should be four Beyonder in the middle Mid-Sequence, who most likely possess Sealed Artifact and have very strong combat power.

Otherwise, one would not receive a very dangerous divination result.

Thinking of this, Lorry shifted his focus slightly and looked up at the "Seer" lady. "What if I deal with them separately?"

Upon hearing this, the "Seer" adjusted her words and performed the divination again.

The words had barely left his mouth.

The Yellow Crystal continued to swing clockwise, but the amplitude was much smaller.

Seeing this, Lorry breathed a sigh of relief, snapped his fingers to send the "Seer" away, and began to think about how to proceed.

After a moment, he stroked the White Bone Ring, simulating the abilities of a "Shaman".

--After Advancement High Sequence, even outside of their territory, a "Shaman" can Elemental Communication and command them to serve them.

The wind is everywhere.

Using their eyes and ears, Lorry quietly learned when Laticia and the others went upstairs and which rooms they stayed in.

He then began to Meditation, trying to restore his depleted Spirituality.

Time passed by, second by second.

As the Crimson Moon climbed directly overhead, the Inn became quiet at midnight, the corridors were exceptionally peaceful, and only the faint sound of snoring could be heard.

Lorry knelt at the table, tracing words on the brand-new Dark Gold pages.

He put down the silver pen and began to infuse it with his Spirituality until he was pale, covered in sweat, and his Spirituality was almost exhausted.

After doing all this, he quickly took out two Charm and silently Silent Recitation:

"Spirituality Restoration!"

Huff... Lorry let out a long breath, his Spirituality quickly recovered, and the instant replenishment gave him an indescribable feeling of comfort.

He was silent for a few seconds, then reached out and tore off the Dark Gold page.

A figure quickly took shape.
