Post-Battle Spoils

First, there are its Beyonder Characteristic.

This includes one "Wraith" trait, three "Zombie" traits, eight "Werewolf" traits, five "Lunatic" traits, and two "Prisoner" traits.

The former comes from Adrian.

The remaining Beyonder Characteristic are a side benefit of the clone's Advancement "Desire Apostle".

Lorry picked up the document Beyonder Characteristic of the "Wraith" alone, his gaze gradually turning cold, a mocking smile playing on his lips as he muttered to himself:

"To get rid of you, I've staked two clones, two Level 1 Sealed Artifact, and a Sequence 5 Mystical Item as my wager."

"You should be proud of being a Sequence 5, right?"

"Putting everything else aside, using either of the two Level 1 Sealed Artifact as a condition might be enough to make the ' Rose School ' eliminate you without hesitation."

After speaking, he stared at this characteristic in silence for a moment, then sealed it with a ritual just like any other Beyonder Characteristic.

Neither I nor the Tarot Club have any need for the "Prisoner" Pathway; it seems we can only sell it to the Temperance Faction of the "Rose School"...

I don't know if Sharron and the others are in Backlund right now... I hope to get something I need from them besides money...

Of course, the items can't be sold directly... The Illusions of the "Traveler" who went to the Southern Continent to snipe the Demigod of the "Rose School" still has a drop of Cohinem's blood inside it. It's a good time to make the most of it and shatter these properties... With a simple operation, the final profit will more than double... The thought flashed through his mind, Lorry did it without hesitation.

He picked up the "Curse of Knowledge" and slipped it onto his right hand, then, with the "Calamity Bracelet" and Beyonder Characteristic Teleportation to the "Black Lady".

With the Illusions "The Traveler" in hand, he found a deserted island nearby, shattered the Beyonder Characteristic and conjured the "Fire Seed" glove. After Stealing two drops of Angel blood from the other's body, he instructed the Illusions to Teleportation back to the Ghost Ship. After sealing the two drops of blood, he Teleportation back to Backlund.

"There are still three days until Monday. I wonder if the ' Hermit ' will be able to complete the transaction this time... Give her one drop, and the remaining three drops can be made into Charm..."

He now has a total of four drops of Angel blood.

Not wanting to waste too much time on things that hadn't yet happened, Lorry quickly put them out of his mind and recounted his Beyonder Characteristic:

One "Wraith," four "Zombie," twelve "Werewolf," seventeen "Lunatic," and nineteen "Prisoner."

Even at market prices, the total value exceeds £60,000!

Lorry was taken aback by the calculated result.

This number is already very close to his previous peak wealth.

But he quickly Calmness down. For him right now, the most important thing was to Advancement "Dream Stealer"; money alone was not very meaningful.

"I don't need Mystical Item below the Demigod. And Mystical Item at the Demigod level are beyond the measure of money."

Even if they did, the Temperance Faction wouldn't sell them.

"Therefore, if it is a barter system, the main factor is still the Beyonder Characteristic or characteristics."

"Although the possibility is very small, I will still ask Miss Sharron as a matter of routine if the Temperance Faction has any materials or characteristics that correspond to the Dream Stealer."

"The next level consists of materials from the previous few Sequence."

"Besides that, there's the Advancement of Pali and Mumulik's two clones."

"The latter, once they gather the necessary supporting materials, can easily shatter the ' Earl's Coronet ' Advancement; the former, on the other hand, can prepare in advance."

--The two Paths of the Divine that Lorry currently possesses are "Abyss" and "Black Emperor," which correspond precisely to his two clones.

Two Formula naturally came to mind:

Sequence 4: The Fallen Earl.

Main Ingredient: Woodland Banshee's eyeball, Cat-Faced Wraith's tongue.

"Supporting materials: 150 ml of Woodland Banshee blood, 3 pieces of Cat-Faced Wraith's nails, 10 drops of Camellia Essential Oil, 13 strands of Fallen Hair. "Ritual: Become a mid-to-high-ranking official in a country, and corrupt seven people of the same social class, forming a community of interests with them to promote a national policy that benefits oneself but is detrimental to the people."

Sequence 4: The Demon.

Main Ingredient: Blood crystal of the "Archdevil", reproductive organs of the "Lust Demon".

"Auxiliary materials: one black heart of the " Archdevil ", 130 ml of blood of the " Lust Demon ".

"Ritual: To induce at least ten thousand intelligent beings to voluntarily sell their souls to you; the higher the target's rank, the fewer the required number."

Lost in thought, Lorry let out a soft breath and sighed, "No wonder it's the starting point for Demigod and mortals; the difficulty of these two Advancement rituals..."

"Becoming a mid-to-high-level official in a country, engaging in bribery and corruption, and pushing through policies... these are not easy tasks."

"To induce at least ten thousand intelligent beings to voluntarily sell their souls... this is even more difficult than the ritual above, although the literal meaning does not limit it to humans."

"Could it be that you can lure ten thousand Curly-Haired Baboon? Although they are intelligent beings, I seriously doubt whether they can understand the concept of selling one's soul."

"No wonder Demigod are so rare; rituals definitely play a significant role in that."

He was momentarily at a loss for words, only hoping that the ritual difficulty wouldn't be too outrageous when he Advancement "Parasite."

"Forget it, let's try to gather the materials first. Let them figure out the ritual themselves." Lorry didn't want to make things difficult for himself, quickly pulling his thoughts back from that. "As for the remaining money, let's ask the clone what he thinks."

"At least it's her spoils of war."

After having a rough plan, he synchronized his memories with his two clones and reached out to pick up the palm-sized rag doll on the Tea Table.

He then quickly set up the ritual, bringing the area within a few meters closer to the Spirit World.

Then, paper and pen materialized, and she quickly wrote down a divination statement, "The Beyonder Ability and negative effects of this Mystical Item."

As he repeatedly chanted in a low voice, his eyes rolled back, and he quickly Dream Infiltration.

Adrian stood awkwardly in a room that resembled Living Room, where a figure shrouded in mist sat on Single Sofa.

It could only be vaguely identified as male from the outline.

The figure leisurely took a sip of tea and took out a rag doll from his pocket.

After handing it to Adrian, the figure said solemnly:

"This is your reward for Advancement ' Wraith,' a Mystical Item crafted with the Beyonder Characteristic of ' Marionettist,' perfectly complementing your abilities. "If used properly, you will fear no Beyonder below the level of Demigod."

This Mystical Item is called a "Marionette Doll".

"Pry open its two eyeballs and soak it in water with your own blood for more than an hour, and you can become its owner."

"After completing the process of recognizing a master, you will gain two abilities."

"First, you will acquire a wealth of divination knowledge and skills, becoming extremely adept at divination, making your divination abilities far surpass those of other ' Wraith ' in the same Sequence."

"Second, like a true ' Marionettist,' see the Spirit Body Threads the target and gradually manipulate them to make the target your Marionette."

"The range of seeing the Spirit Body Threads is 150 meters, and the range of controlling them is 10 meters."

"As for manipulating the Marionette, the maximum range is 150 meters. Beyond this distance, it will lose control and stand still like a statue, waiting."

You can only have one Marionette at most.

"The new Marionette will cause the old Marionette to lose control and die completely."

"Initially gaining control of the Spirit Body Threads will not alert most targets unless they have prophetic or danger-intuitive abilities, which can take as little as 10 seconds."

"Completely transforming a target into Marionette also takes time, ranging from three to ten minutes depending on the strength of their Spirit Body. Note that this only applies to Low Sequence Beyonder and ordinary people."

He paused slightly, took a sip of tea, and continued:

"The specific method of use is to actively manipulate the ' Marionette Doll ' into different poses. When you make the same movements, you will gain the corresponding abilities."

"I hope that when you finish using it, you can repeat this action again."

The negative effect is that the "Marionette Doll" must have a Marionette within 24 hours of recognizing its owner; otherwise, it may secretly manipulate the Spirit Body Threads and transform the original owner into Marionette. This can be avoided by actively moving away from it; it will not pose a threat if it is more than 10 meters away.

Similarly, after a Marionette dies, a new Marionette must be replaced within 24 hours, otherwise the consequences will be the same as above.

As soon as he finished speaking, Adrian's face lit up with ecstasy. He stepped forward, took the "Marionette Doll," and bowed to the figure, saying:

"Yes, Grandfather, I understand."

The dream has ended.

Lorry opened his eyes, a serious expression on his face:

"Grandfather..." The figure was shrouded in mist as a form of Spirituality Self- protection.

His intuition told him that the other person was at least Sequence 4.

"I never imagined that Adrian had a Demigod elder. No wonder he didn't face punishment from the ' Rose School ' when he casually killed his subordinates."

So they were fearless because they had nothing to lose.

While muttering to himself, he retrieved a large amount of Spirituality materials from the Sun Domain from another Dimension and quickly set up the altar for the "Believer" ritual.

Then, the "Marionette Doll" was placed in the center of the altar, and the recitation of the Honorific Name began, praying to the "Eternal Blazing Sun" for the power of Purification.

A moment later, an invisible, immense energy descended from the sky within the Wall of Spirituality, and a blinding white light suddenly erupted from the center of the altar.

Suddenly, a dense black aura emanated from the "Marionette Doll," which rapidly melted during the Purification, and countless wails and roars gradually subsided in the white light.

Praise the Sun!

Lorry devoutly concluded the ceremony, a hint of relief appearing on his lips.

That way, I can safely give the "Marionette Doll" to Fors without worrying about Adrian's Demigod elder coming to my door...

To be honest, this Mystical Item is quite impressive... It possesses the core ability of a "Marionettist," and its negative effects are very easy to avoid... Besides actively staying away from it, perhaps snakes, insects, and rodents could be used as a substitute... The thought flashed through his mind, and he performed another divination, finding that the latter was feasible.

Lorry temporarily stored this Mystical Item in another Dimension, slowly shifting his gaze to the only remaining black medal on the Tea Table.

After watching in silence for a few seconds, he began to perform Dream Divination using the same method he had just used.
