Fors let out a dry laugh and said:

I don't know either.

"Alright," Audrey replied with slight disappointment, then turned to look at the head of the Bronze Long Table, gazing expectantly at "The Fool."

Don't look at me, I'm not much better than you... Apart from the ancient vengeful spirit, I've never heard of any of the other names... "Fool" Klein smiled bitterly to himself.

He glanced at the "Magician" discreetly, thinking to himself, "Using my ' Black Emperor ' card, he's still giving me a hard time."

"Aren't you and your 'friends' going a bit too far?"

While inwardly criticizing a certain "Blessed," Klein chuckled and made a gesture that indicated he "didn't bother answering such a question personally."

Similar things had happened many times before, so Audrey didn't think much of it. She gave the ancient god an apologetic nod and looked away.

At this moment, "The Sun" Derrick raised his hand slightly and said:

According to our textbook on Devil:

"The ' Archdevil ' and the ' Lust Demon ' originate from the ' Abyss ' and are two races of Devil, both belonging to the Demigod- level, long-lived species."

After saying that, he looked at Fors: "Miss Magician, I can get the black heart of the ' Archdevil ' and the blood of the ' Lust Demon,' could you wait a while?"

Before the creditors could ask, Derrick offered his explanation:

"The City of Silver's treasury contains Two Materials, but I don't have much contribution left, so I need to accumulate more during the upcoming exploration missions."

"Although they cannot be used to concoct Potion, they are considered relatively precious Spirituality materials due to their Demigod- like nature."

More than a month ago, Colin Iliad, the Colin of the Council of Six, told him that he would be scheduled to participate in an expedition two months later.

"You found two so easily?" Fors was slightly taken aback, then quickly nodded. "I understand, I have plenty of patience to wait."

At this point, she suddenly remembered something and quickly asked:

"By the way," Mr. "Sun".

"Is the remaining outstanding debt sufficient to support this transaction?"

In the two major transactions recently, Derrick provided his side with a considerable amount of Beyonder Characteristic through the "Marauder's " Pathway.

Although the quality is not high, the quantity is large.

"That's enough." "The Sun," Derrick nodded, answering honestly, "They're only precious compared to other Spirituality materials." Fors breathed a sigh of relief.

"I will collect the Sequence 5 Formula for the ' Sun ' Pathway as soon as possible."

She is no longer the wild Sequence 9 Beyonder she once was, and naturally she can recognize the value of City of Silver, or rather, Mr. "The Sun".

Therefore, they are eager to collect items that the other party is interested in for use in the transaction.

"The Sun" Derrick was delighted upon hearing this:

"Thank you, kind ' Magician ' lady!"

Judging from his tone, he seemed certain that he would soon obtain the Formula.

That's the benefit of a good reputation, but Miss "Magician" does indeed have a proven track record... "Fool" Klein thought to himself.

He began to seriously consider a question: should he release the soul of the "Priest of Light" from the "Creeping Hunger" ahead of time?

"At the beginning of the month, I reached an agreement with the ' Hermit ' lady to travel to the depths of the Sonia Sea in April on her boat in search of wild mermaids."

"Now that the role of ' Faceless ' is about to end and we're preparing to depart, is it inappropriate to lower my combat power at this time?"

"The soul of the ' Priest of Light ' has been of considerable help to me." Klein maintained his God demeanor while quickly analyzing the pros and cons. Soon, he made up his mind.

Do not release them prematurely; prioritize preserving your own combat strength!

After all, the sea is extremely dangerous, and who knows what unexpected event might occur at any moment? Leaving behind the soul of the "Priest of Light" provides another means of resolving the problem...

Once I 'Advancement "Marionettist," if Miss "Magician" hasn't found the "Priest of Light" Formula by then, I'll release this poor soul...

Conversely, if he could hold onto it for a while longer and carefully select a replacement... With this thought in mind, Klein gathered his thoughts and drew his attention back to the Gray Fog.

At that moment, he heard the voice of the "Hermit":

I know the answer to your question.

"Justice!" Audrey leaned forward slightly, skipping over Fors in the middle, and looked at the powerful woman, her eyes sparkling as she spoke:

I'm really looking forward to it.

"Uh, no, I mean, what kind of compensation do you need?"

The "Hermit" Cattleya shook her head slightly:

No compensation is required. These are not considered particularly valuable pieces of knowledge.

Then, she said directly:

"As you just said, the Woodland Banshee and the Cat-Faced Wraith are indeed, like the Mind Dragon, almost extinct supernatural beings."

"Perhaps they can only be found on untouched, pristine islands; in addition, some long-established Concealment organizations may also possess collections."

"The Corrupted Aura is a natural condensation of negative things such as human evil thoughts and desires, and its quantity has gradually become scarce since the beginning of the Fifth Epoch."

"Dream-Eating Mouse are semi- Spirit World Creature that feed on the dreams of living beings and can freely travel between the Real World and the Spirit World."

Audrey listened attentively, then asked with great interest:

What about their levels?

Without hesitation, Cattleya replied, "The first two belong to the Demigod level, generally considered to be Sequence 4, while the latter two are equivalent to Sequence 5."

It seems that being pursued by "knowledge" isn't entirely a bad thing... A normal Sequence 5 wouldn't know so much... Klein thought calmly.

Sequence 4, Sequence 5... Why does Fors suddenly seem so sophisticated...? Audrey murmured silently, a faint smile playing on her lips.

"Thank you for your answer," said the "Hermit." Cattleya nodded slightly to the noblewoman, then turned her gaze to Fors: "I can obtain the blood of the Dream-Eating Mouse. How much do you need?"

Fors, who had been spacing out, suddenly snapped back to reality:

30 ml is enough.

Cattleya thought for a moment and said, "300 pounds, I'll give it to you within a week."

"We've got another one!" Fors nodded, barely suppressing his excitement.

"Good."

Miss "Magician" looks very happy... Ah, love is like that, making people fall into it without realizing it... Luckily I don't have a girlfriend, otherwise it would affect my ability to save the world... Seeing this member's reaction, "Fool" Klein jokingly said to himself.

The Gray Fog fell silent once more.

Just as "Justice" Audrey thought the Free Exchange Session was about to begin and was ready to share the interesting viewpoints she had encountered at the Psychology Alchemists the previous week...

Out of the corner of her eye, she noticed that Hugh's body stiffened, and he almost reached out to cover his face.

Hugh's acting so strange today... Just as she was wondering about it, Audrey heard another friend's voice. "Everyone, I have another Mystical Item to sell."

Another one? Although she was already strapped for cash after ordering the "Dieter's " Copper Whistle, she still wanted to broaden her horizons and turned her eyes to the side with great interest.
