Cattleya glanced at Kronos in confusion, and then at his own Astrology Instrument in confusion.

This piece of Astrology Instrument was obtained by accident.

Cattleya also owns Eyes of Mystery Prying. Things with mysterious powers cannot escape her eyes.

This Astrology Instrument is such a thing.

When Cattleya first saw it, he thought it was a Beyonder Item. In addition, the shape is still a Astrology Instrument, which naturally has a lot of appeal for Cattleya, who has just been promoted to Astronomer.

But after Cattleya paid a lot of money to buy this Astrology Instrument, she discovered that it was not a Beyonder Item, and it did not have any extraordinary abilities.

But after all, it was bought at a high price, so Cattleya did not throw it away directly, but chose to wear it as a decoration.

Kronos suddenly asked, making Cattleya think that he was as confused as himself by this Astrology Instrument.

But Cattleya's desire to play around suddenly came up. Since he had been deceived once, he could make himself happy by dragging Kronos into it and then laughing at him a few times.

So Cattleya didn't have any reminder, and immediately took off his own Astrology Instrument and handed it to Kronos.

She also said, "Research carefully, there is a big secret hidden in it. If you discover it, you will be rich."

Kronos looked at Cattleya in surprise. He didn't expect Cattleya to be so sharp and discovered the extraordinaryness of this Astrology Instrument. No wonder he never lost it and finally joined Tarot Club with this.

Anyway, Kronos's Eyes of Mystery Prying gained nothing from it. Although I saw a slightly different aura from ordinary items, it was obviously different from Beyonder Item.

So Kronos took Astrology Instrument solemnly, then nodded and said, "I'll try my best!"

After Kronos entered the room where he lived with Astrology Instrument, Cattleya secretly laughed behind him for a long time.

It takes about two or three days from Nas to the place agreed upon by Cattleya and Butatov. During this time, Kronos has nothing to do, so he can concentrate on studying Astrology Instrument's affairs.

Kronos first used Eyes of Mystery Prying to carefully explore the status of Astrology Instrument, but unfortunately, nothing was found.

Kronos's attainments in Eyes of Mystery Prying are still very deep, so he saw it.

This Astrology Instrument is not an ordinary thing, but it is indeed quite far away from Beyonder Item.

It is more like a piece of Beyonder Item that was carried around by a strong man of high status and formed over many years of cultivation.

There are still some of this kind of Beyonder Item. Compared with the normal Beyonder Item, the extraordinary abilities possessed by the Beyonder Item formed in this way will be relatively weaker.

But there is a benefit, that is, it can have higher-level abilities and milder negative effects.

But after Kronos racked his brains, he still couldn't figure out what Pathway's strong High Sequence the aura on Astrology Instrument belonged to.

Since there is nothing Eyes of Mystery Prying can do, Kronos chooses to try Eye of Time.

Because after being promoted several times, Eye of Time can already see the past very far away, and perhaps he can find the answer from the past.

Under Eye of Time's time review, Kronos soon saw the process of Cattleya purchasing and researching Astrology Instrument.

It was precisely because of seeing this video that Kronos felt something was wrong.

Cattleya obviously didn't find any abnormalities, but in the end, he lied to himself, saying that there was a big secret in it.

Kronos If you think about it a little, you will understand the purpose of Cattleya.

He really didn't expect that Admiral of Stars, who had the style of a cold and aloof lady, no matter in appearance or the description in the original work, would have such a bad taste.

As time backtracking accelerated, Kronos followed Timeline little by little and found the origin of Astrology Instrument.

It was fished out of the sea by a fisherman. After changing hands several times, it finally came into the hands of Cattleya.

As for where it came from before it was salvaged?

The scene in Eye of Time told Kronos that it flew out of Spirit World. It was not an ordinary object floating in Spirit World, but flew out from a high place in Spirit World.

But higher up, Kronos is unable to continue tracing back.

Not only because the backtracking time is close to the limit, but also because the interference and resistance at the height of Spirit World is very large, Spirituality is rapidly consuming, and Kronos can no longer bear it.

After removing Eye of Time, Kronos took a deep breath.

No wonder Klein can use these things to summon people to Sefirah Castle.

Lord of the Mysteries is originally the ruler of Spirit World, and Sefirah Castle is at the infinite height of Spirit World. So it is possible that these things are contaminated with the aura of Sefirah Castle, so they are connected to the summons of Sefirah Castle.

This is also the reason why Kronos could see the smell of contamination from Astrology Instrument, but could not tell what the smell was.

How could Kronos have seen the aura of Sefirah Castle?

If Amon was here, he might still be able to tell.

After researching the method above Astrology Instrument, Kronos has a bit of a headache.

There really is no place to fake the aura above, he can only let it happen, so his idea of taking the opportunity to join Tarot Club will be difficult to realize.

Kronos thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to go into Spirit World to have a look, maybe you will be lucky.

After several hours of meditation, Kronos activated the ability of Spirit World Traversal, holding Astrology Instrument in his hand and entered Spirit World.

After Death God Mask was formed, Kronos has entered Spirit World several times, and I have some understanding of it, so I won't get lost.

During the backtracking process of Eye of Time just now, Kronos was barely able to find the way to the heights of Spirit World, so he did not hesitate for a moment and flew directly in the direction where Astrology Instrument flew out.

As Kronos goes deeper and deeper, the resistance around us becomes stronger and stronger.

After all, he is not from Door Pathway or Death Pathway. It is really difficult for him to thrive in Spirit World just by relying on Beyonder Item.

At the end of the flight, Kronos had no choice but to give up and exit Spirit World.

But Kronos is also a stubborn person. How can you do scientific research if you are not stubborn?

Therefore, Kronos will continue to fly after restoring Spirituality, and will exit and restore after exhausting Spirituality.

Just like this over and over again, Kronos couldn't believe it. This difficulty was even more difficult than his previous design Scroll.

On Kronos's tenth try, the situation changed.

This time Kronos still appeared in basically the same position as before. Just as he was about to go deeper, he saw Green Light flash beside him, and the scene changed.

Kronos was startled, thinking that he had activated some ability of Time Stone. However, after checking around, he discovered that this Green Light had nothing to do with him, but was emanating from a location in front of him.

After a while, Green Light beside Kronos slowly recovered, and finally gathered into a point, forming a human shape, and then a person slowly walked out of Green Light.

This person is a middle-aged man wearing a green robe. He is of medium build, has an obvious aura of an artist, and has an artist's long hair.

If the other features did not inspire Kronos, then this robe gave Kronos a reasonable guess.

Pure Light Brotherhood, mainly Seven Paths Pure Light covering the highest point of Spirit World, and a lot of Spirit World Creature, is a secret organization established to teach people knowledge.

Its master, Seven Paths Pure Light, often enters Real World, transforms into human beings in different ways, and teaches corresponding knowledge. Since Fifth Epoch, many mentor-level figures in various fields have been their incarnations.

There is a high possibility that this middle-aged man in green robe is one of them Green Light--Serapis.

This is a big boss. Kronos's attitude has become very respectful. Even if he can't expect to be appreciated by the big boss, he can't be disgusted by the big boss. If he is killed in Spirit World, it will be a big loss.

Serapis could tell at a glance that Kronos recognized him, so he did not intend to introduce himself at all, but said directly, "My friend, not everyone has the opportunity to enter the heights of Spirit World. It is better to retreat. Once you are contaminated with too much Spirit World's aura, it will not be a good thing for you."

When Kronos heard Serapis's tone, he felt that it was particularly gentle, so he asked tentatively, "Green Light Your Excellency, if I am not afraid of contamination, can I continue to try?"

This is the ability of Concealment of Time. Kronos has been in and out of Spirit World many times, but it is true that there is not a trace of Spirit World's breath.

Serapis's expression was stagnant. He didn't expect that the person in front of him wouldn't listen to his suggestions so much. In the past, if he went out to guide some people, he would always be very obedient.

Kronos saw that Serapis's expression was not right, and he quickly opened his mouth to apologize and indicated that he wanted to leave.

But unexpectedly, Serapis spoke first, "You can't go to the heights of Spirit World, otherwise many Guardian will take action against you. I am doing this for your own good."

Ever since Kronos knew that Olnia was attracted by his "specialness", he knew that he might be really different in the eyes of some big guys, so he did a little testing after noticing Green Light's tone.

As a result, I didn't expect that Green Light would be in such a state. Then Kronos would have to "excessive measures"!

"Green Light Your Excellency, I came to Spirit World not for anything else, but mainly because I want to find something similar to this. If I can't find it, I won't be reconciled!" After saying that, Kronos handed Astrology Instrument forward and showed it in front of Serapis.

Serapis must have expected it, so he said with a profound tone, "Since my little friend is here to look for it, you should know that this thing will involve a big deal. Aren't you afraid of getting yourself into trouble?"

These words gave Kronos some reminders.

Joining Tarot Club means you have completely entered the main plot of "Lord of the Mysteries", then troubles will come one after another.

At that time, not only will you be in trouble, but also those of "Mr. Fool", "Miss Justice", "Mr. Hanged Man"...

In fact, this conflicts with Kronos's original principle of protecting oneself wisely.

But after thinking about this, Kronos had no intention of backing down.

Because he knows one thing, that is, Outer Deity's invasion is imminent, and it is still unclear how far Kronos himself can develop. If he doesn't have a good relationship with these protagonists, what if he is really unlucky?

So Kronos, who came back to his senses, smiled at Serapis, and then said, "Green Light Your Excellency, if I don't get involved in these troubles, on the day when the world Apocalypse really Descent, can you guarantee the safety of me and the people I care about?"

Kronos's words stunned Serapis.

Serapis appears here because Seven Pure Light sent him to stop Kronos.

They don't want Kronos to get involved in the incident of Lord of the Mysteries's return.

They can sense the specialness of Kronos, so they don't want such a special factor to affect the development of things later.

The main reason why Green Light came was that they saw Green Light in Kronos, so they thought Kronos might prefer green.

Serapis himself originally thought that this matter might be solved easily, because he thought that Kronos himself might not fully understand how dangerous this matter was.

So as long as he reveals a little bit, he can naturally scare Kronos away. After all, it is the nature of every living thing to seek good fortune and avoid evil.

But none of them expected that Kronos knew very well the extent of the matter involved, and had already made a decision in his mind, so he would not be scared off so easily.

After Serapis listened to Kronos's words, he had a feeling, that is, if Kronos failed to achieve his goal today, he would definitely get involved later.

So he fell silent.

During the period of silence when he was silent, Kronos keenly felt some emotional fluctuations around Serapis, as if someone was communicating something.

Kronos could naturally guess that it was other Pure Light who was communicating with him, so Kronos didn't say a word so as not to disturb the other party.

After a while of communication, Serapis spoke again, "There are really not many such things in the outside world. If you want to buy another one, then you will have no room for regrets. Let me ask you one last time, do you really want it?"

Kronos did not hesitate, nodded and said, "I want it."

Seeing this, Serapis no longer stopped, but stretched out his hand, took out an item from his robe, and handed it to Kronos.

At first glance, Kronos is a fist-sized, green Crystal Ball.

Kronos just took it over, and before he could say anything, he was directly excluded from Spirit World.

Kronos, who was excluded from Spirit World, returned to Future's own room with two hands, one with Astrology Instrument and the other with Crystal Ball.

Only then did Kronos react, and then looked over with Eyes of Mystery Prying, and found that the auras on Crystal Ball and Astrology Instrument were generally the same, probably the aura of Sefirah Castle.

Kronos then safely put away Crystal Ball. His work was not in vain, and he finally got the tickets for Tarot Club.
