Kronos's tone was far more certain than Alger's in the original work, and his description was extremely detailed, causing everyone to tremble in fear.

"What can it be used for? I mean, the dead one," Derrick asked.

"It has many uses. It's the main material for certain Sequence advancements, it can be used in some Ritual, and it can also be used to make some Charm," Kronos said casually.

Finally, he added, "Although it has so many uses, I still suggest you try not to use the one you have. Amon's methods are rather unpredictable; no one knows if He can find you through the dead Worm of Time."

After finishing his discussion about Amon, Little Sun continued recounting the story of the City of Silver expedition team, hoping the members of the Tarot Club could help him analyze it.

Alger could perfectly solve this problem for him, so Kronos returned to his silent state.

Alger taught Derrick how to use the unusual behavior of his expedition team members to clear himself of suspicion.

Alger joined the Church of Storms solely for survival and to become stronger, so he had no real faith in the Church of Storms.

He did this kind of thing quite often, even within the church, let alone after becoming Pirate.

Therefore, they have extremely rich practical experience.

After sharing his experience, Alger remarked, "If only there were items related to the ' True Creator '..."

Kronos definitely has such things, for example, the Corruption Bracelet.

If Kronos were willing to lend out the bracelet, even someone who wasn't already corrupted would be completely corrupted by it, let alone someone who was already corrupted.

But Kronos clearly wouldn't do that.

If a problem occurs, not only Derrick, but the entire City of Silver will be unable to control this bracelet.

With Kronos remaining silent, Mr. World lent out the All-Black Eye as originally planned.

After several Tarot Club, Miss Fors the Magician gradually adapted to the atmosphere here.

Previously, Miss Fors had been trading things like Potion Formula; today, for the first time, she was preparing to trade some Message that interested her.

"I want to know which family the ' Apprentice ' Pathway belongs to? I'm willing to exchange a chapter from ' Travels in the Spirit World ' for it. Although it's considered the ramblings of Visionary, based on my several experiences entering and leaving the Spirit World, many of the descriptions in it are true."

"Would you like to hear some more advanced Information?" Kronos asked first.

Fors ' Sequence is low, but it is very valuable.

Having inherited Mrs. Anlisa's entire estate, she can be considered a member of the Abraham Family, and through her, there might be an opportunity to make contact with members of the Abraham Family.

This family is truly wealthy. They didn't have a single Demigod in the entire family, yet they possessed three Grade 0 Sealed Artifact. They were practically rolling in money.

Of course, these weren't what Kronos was after right now; his real goal was the book "Travels in the Spirit World".

Although it's unknown whether it was written by Mr. Door, it was at least written by High Sequence powerhouse of the Door Pathway, making it very valuable.

Fors was surprised that Mr. Fate would speak up, and her voice was filled with joy. "Of course, if Mr. Fate is willing to help me resolve my doubts, I would be more than happy to."

Kronos said, "Give me the complete Travels in the Spirit World, and I'll tell you more Information. If you feel it's not worth it, you can make your demands."

At this moment, everyone in the Tarot Club understood that the Mr. Fate had spoken up because of this book of Travels in the Spirit World.

This made everyone somewhat restless, wanting to come and take a look at the transaction.

Seeing what everyone was thinking, Kronos said, "I suggest you trade this book when you are stronger. Knowledge has power, and when you are not strong enough, you are not even qualified to read this knowledge."

Just then, Fors spoke up, "Mr. Fate is right. Even just seeing Travels in the Spirit World makes me manic and confused."

Fors ' words calmed the crowd's thoughts somewhat.

Then Fors said to Kronos, "Mr. Fate, how about this? I'll give you Travels in the Spirit World in exchange for the Information I want to know."

"But if the Information you provide is insufficient in my opinion for exchanging your Travels in the Spirit World, then you owe me something."

Kronos thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."

Do you want only yourself to hear the answer, or everyone else?

Instead of speaking to her alone, Fors ultimately shared the answer with everyone.

"The Apprentice Pathway once had a very glorious moment, in the Fourth Epoch, when a man named Bethel Abraham was revered as Mr. Door and also known as the man closest to God."

"The Abraham Family He created is the greatest ally of Blood Emperor Alista Tudor. Due to their long-standing marriage alliance with the Tamara Family, the Tamara Family should also possess the Apprentice Pathway, but the extent of this is unclear."

"At the end of the Fourth Epoch, Mr. Door Loss of Control. Such a powerful person Loss of Control, and it was very difficult to deal with him. In the end, it took two True God joining forces to banish him."

"But He has not died to this day, so during the Full Moon He speaks in utterances through the power of His bloodline, which causes great suffering to the Abraham Family."

"These delirious ramblings caused countless members of the Abraham Family to die Loss of Control, and the higher the Sequence, the stronger the influence."

"This also led to the complete demise of the once-renowned Abraham Family in the Fourth Epoch Age, as there were no more High Sequence left in the family."

"Lacking High Sequence experts, yet possessing numerous powerful and Beyonder Item, the Abraham Family had no choice but to split into smaller clans, scattered across various regions, and live in anonymity."

"Of course, there are several organizations that know about the Apprentice Pathway, such as the Aurora Order, because it once absorbed some students taught by the Abraham Family."

"For example, the Aurora Order is actually Demoness Sect."

"There's another organization and a person, but I can't reveal their names to you; it wouldn't do you any good."

Kronos is referring to Amon and the Twilight Hermit Order here.

Amon stole the First Blasphemy Slate, while Adam possessed the Second Blasphemy Slate; thus, they naturally held the entire Sequence.

After listening to Kronos, Fors felt it was definitely worth the money.

She not only learned about the Abraham Family, but also about the origin of the Full Moon Curse.

It's just sharing Travels in the Spirit World; the cost is negligible.

"Thank you, Mr. Fate. After the Tarot Club ends, I will give you my Travels in the Spirit World. You can return them to me after you've read them."

If it were just one or two chapters, Fors could choose to copy them, but the whole book was a different story. Even if he copied it slowly, the possibility of him losing Loss of Control was very high.

Kronos nodded slightly, without saying a word.

During the subsequent free discussion, Audrey told the story of the Rogue Black Emperor.

Even without the influence of an outsider like Kronos, Klein still managed to kill the wealthy Capim and leave behind a representative Ta Lo.

Alger, reminded by Kronos, didn't investigate the Missing Persons Case too thoroughly, but upon hearing that the deceased was a human trafficker, he still inquired about it with interest.

However, Kronos had absolutely no interest in this matter, so he didn't say another word until the Tarot Club ended.

Shortly after the Tarot Club ended, Kronos felt a Spirituality prompting.

Because of a previous carelessness, the God of Steam and Machinery saw through his secrets, almost causing a big problem. Therefore, Kronos has basically always been shrouded in Time Barrier.

However, with this Time Barrier in place, Mr. Fool is also unable to contact Kronos on his own initiative.

So after receiving the Spirituality reminder, Kronos voluntarily dispelled the Time Barrier and then contacted Mr. Fool.

As a "deliveryman," Mr. Fool dutifully delivered his Travels in the Spirit World to Kronos.

Of course, he also received a delivery fee, which was for quickly flipping through part of the book's contents.

Due to time constraints and the influence of the text, Klein only skimmed through parts of the first and second chapters.

In this way, even if Kronos intercepted the message beforehand, Klein still saw what he was originally supposed to see.

Kronos picked up the Travels in the Spirit World in front of him and began to read it with interest.

The book doesn't actually contain much occult knowledge; it simply Record what a High Sequence powerful being saw and heard while wandering in the Spirit World.

This is also very helpful to Kronos.

Once you reach High Sequence, the materials needed for promotion become much harder to find.

This Travels in the Spirit World contains Record of many Rare Species, which Kronos could quickly find if he ever needed it.

As for the influence of the text in the book, it had virtually no effect on Kronos.

He's a Demigod, after all; he can't be so incapable of even reading.

Over the next three days, while waiting for Amyrius, Kronos carefully studied the book of his Travels in the Spirit World, Record down all its contents, and then returned the book.

On the very night he returned the book, Amyrius's Secretary Lü Er'an, appeared at Sharf's Home's door and handed Kronos a letter.

Although Amyrius trusted Lü Er'an, he didn't let him know about this matter; he merely passed on Message.

The letter contained only one sentence. "Everything is ready."

This was exactly what Kronos had been waiting for.

That evening, Kronos secretly met with Amyrius to discuss their next plan of action.

The next day, more than half of the Warship in the Sonia Fleet were deployed, with the aim of annihilating both the Iron Anchor and the Death Announcer.

Just as the fleet set sail, Kronos arrived near the entrance to the Tudor Ruins.

This is the entrance that Kronos found, so it's naturally very familiar to him.

Upon arriving near the entrance, Kronos spotted two MI9 agents guarding it.

Kronos activated his Eyes of Mystery Prying, preparing to observe the surrounding situation.

The Eyes of Mystery Prying still shocked Kronos.

He could clearly see that there were many people in the Ruins, including many Beyonder, such as those of Sequence 7, Sequence 6, and Sequence 5.

Most of these Beyonder were in guard positions, while the rest were ordinary people who were all doing the work.

Kronos counted them; there were nearly a hundred Beyonder.

No wonder Amyrius, even after becoming Sequence 3, was still unsure of himself.

With so many Beyonder, unless they were all killed, it would be impossible for Amyrius to keep it a Pathway.

After Kronos had observed the surrounding situation, he quietly retreated to a more distant location.

Amyrius was already waiting here.

At this moment, Amyrius was wearing a large blue Cloak and a Mask.

"I've observed everything; you can make your move now," Kronos said.

"Are you sure you don't need me to pick you up?" Amyrius asked.

In the original plan, Amyrius only needed to quickly attack the entrance to the Ruins and then escape.

Once he shakes off the pursuers and returns to the Sonia Fleet, he doesn't need to worry about the rest.

"No need. I'm quite confident in my disguise skills. I'll just sneak in and sneak out. There won't be any major problems," Kronos refused.

Amyrius's combat abilities are undoubtedly exceptional; the Justiciar are Sequence that excels in combat.

However, he's not very good at hiding or escaping.

If something really goes wrong, Kronos can still escape on his own, but if he takes Amyrius with him, he might not be able to get away himself.

Seeing that Kronos did not agree, Amyrius stopped talking and turned to fly towards the Tudor Ruins.

Kronos didn't follow, because chaos was about to erupt over there. He decided to wait until things were completely chaotic before approaching, making it easier to infiltrate.

Not long after, Kronos heard a tremendous roar of Lightning, clearly from Amyrius using the Tyrant's Roar.

At this moment, Kronos began to move. He first put on the Cloak of Concealment Cloak, and then used the Invisibility Hat spell, double insurance for greater safety.

After finishing, Kronos moved closer to the Tudor Ruins.

Amyrius struck the two gatekeepers with a bolt of Lightning, then turned and ran after they noticed him, naturally drawing out many guards.

Taking advantage of the chaos, Kronos walked directly into the Gate of the Ruins.
