The Moon 'Emlyn eyes flickered slightly. He leaned back in his chair and answered Miss Justice's question at a measured pace, with a hint of a smile:

"My job is simple: to ensure that both parties can smoothly move things forward."

"So you don't need to participate in the battle directly, right?" " Justice " Audrey was about to ask a few more questions, but after glancing at " The Moon " and reconsidering her previous words, she smiled faintly and said:

"In that case, the only thing you need to do is ensure your own safety."

That makes sense. I can't let this affect me. Anyway, there's nothing I need to get involved in... I won't be responsible for the risky parts. After that, I'll rent " Lemano's Travel Notes," pay "The World" to Record a few pages of " Teleportation," and there shouldn't be any safety issues... " The Moon " Emlyn thought for a few seconds, then nodded slightly:

"Excellent suggestion."

Since the other aspects of the Sanguine hunt were not involved by members of the Tarot Club and were completely out of control, this small-scale private exchange quickly ended, and the participants returned to the real world.

Klein didn't rush to leave. After disappearing, he reappeared on the " The Fool's " chair, beckoning to summon the " Unshadowed Crucifix " and the " Marauder's " magical item, the "Severed Finger," which were bound together.

At this moment, grains of sand, appearing as dark and deep as they had absorbed all the surrounding light, emerged from the surface of what looked like two grayish-white "tweezers" polished from finger bones. They flowed slowly, coalesced, and seemed to be Reorganization a new shape.

The Severed Finger itself turned from grayish-white to translucent, reflecting a little light, and cracked with tiny fissures.

"The ' Unshadowed Crucifix ' can actually make the Beyonder Characteristic of magical items and Sealed Artifact slowly extract and recrystallize. Of course, the premise is that there is a power similar to the mysterious space above the Gray Fog that suppresses it, making it 'willing' to come into contact with other things containing Beyonder Characteristic..." Klein nodded in satisfaction.

Just then, the grayish-white " Severed Finger " suddenly vibrated with a buzzing sound, emitting a passionate tone:

Oh, my the Sun!

Praise be to you!

Praise the Sun!

As the tweezer-like object sang, a squeaking and creaking sound emanated from within, as if it might shatter into pieces at any moment.

But this did not stop it from praising the Sun.

"..." Klein stared at the scene with his mouth slightly open, momentarily at a loss for what expression to make.

After a few seconds, he sighed, separated the " Unshadowed Crucifix " and the " Severed Finger," and threw them together at the edge of the pile of debris, placing them in different locations, and suppressed them with the power of the Gray Fog.

Immediately afterwards, he prepared to leave and return to the real world.

At that moment, the mark representing the sole believer of " The Fool " radiated out in concentric circles of light, from which a unified prayer resounded.

Klein suppressed his various thoughts and extended his Spirituality awareness to the area. Immediately, the scene of Danitz praying devoutly in his room appeared before his eyes, and the corresponding sound echoed in his ears:

"Great ' The Fool,' you humble believer request that you convey the following words to Gehrman Sparrow:"

"According to my captain, there are many items that are said to be the personal belongings of the ' Vice Admiral Ailment ' at sea, but they are all fake without exception. Since that attack and injury, this pirate general has been very careful to keep her itinerary secret and has rarely plundered. Her fleet last appeared two months ago on the Seros Island in the western part of the Raging Sea. After that, it sailed into the vast ocean and no one knows where it went."

"The foreign object in Anderson's stomach has been initially brought under control and is now somewhat isolated from his body. It will not seep into his flesh for a long time."

"There are two ways to completely resolve this hidden danger. One is to ask the Sequence 4 ' Unshadowed ' of the ' The Sun ' pathway for help, but there is a significant possibility that even its own Beyonder Characteristic will be greatly Purification. The other is to find the Potion recipe of the Sequence 4 ' Iron-Blooded Knight ' of the ' Hunter ' pathway, and directly absorb the foreign substance with the help of rituals and materials."

Anderson prefers the latter option; he's willing to take the risk.

It was obvious that Danitz was mimicking " Vice Admiral Iceberg's" reply, which wasn't his usual speaking style... However, some of the word choices weren't quite accurate. Had Danitz secretly made changes, using synonyms he could better understand? Was he worried that Gehrman Sparrow wouldn't understand? Klein raised an eyebrow, refocusing his attention on the content itself:

Has the " Vice Admiral Ailment " gone into hiding during this crucial period, following the orders of the Demoness Sect? If so, catching her in a short time is virtually impossible, and in another month or two, things may have already completely exploded, making it unnecessary to search for her anymore...

I'll send Danitz to try and find her first, to keep some hope alive... My own focus will shift to finding the Witch Trissy. I have her contact information, and I can consider using the pretext of cooperating against the " Saintess of White " Katarina to get her to meet with Gehrman Sparrow, to see if I can control her and use her to lure Katarina out...

I can help Anderson with both of his methods for eliminating potential problems. Since he's inclined to take risks and use advancement to absorb the foreign object, I don't need to try to sell him the short-term use of the " Unshadowed Crucifix " through Danitz... That's good; at least I don't have to worry about any adverse chemical reactions when the cross given by Adam comes into contact with the foreign object left by Adam...

As for the " Iron-Blooded Knight " Potion recipe, given Anderson's crucial role in seducing Ince Zangwill, it's not that he can't be given it to him—ha, the foreign object in his stomach was Adam's reward, after all... Well, he can't be directly bestowed upon him; he's not a follower of " The Fool "... Gehrman Sparrow had no reason to give him something of such a high level...

In a flash, Klein made a decision, materializing "The World" Gehrman Sparrow and having him assume a praying posture.

Inside the Golden Dream " in the Sonia Sea.

Bang!

The wooden door was suddenly pushed open and slammed heavily against the wall.

The commotion caused Anderson to pause, his fingers turning the pages of his book, and he looked at Danitz was standing in the doorway with his hands in his pockets, with a normal expression.

"I have a very good mission for you." Danitz, cloaked and without boxing gloves, raised his chin and chuckled.

Anderson sized up the pirates opposite him, clicked his tongue, and said:

You seem quite pleased with yourself...

What mission?

Danitz glanced at Anderson and said:

"Accompany me to Seros Island and help me find the whereabouts of the ' Vice Admiral Ailment '."

"Also, help me gather the extraordinary materials the ' Conspirer ' needs. Ha, you'll have to pay for that yourself."

Anderson nodded thoughtfully.

"So, what is the reward?"

Danitz's lips curled into a slight smile, and he said in a condescending manner:

"List of auxiliary materials and promotion rituals for ' Iron-Blooded Knight '."

Anderson did not respond or speak, but stared intently at Danitz for nearly ten seconds.

Then, as if he couldn't wait any longer, he abruptly threw down the book in his hand, stood up abruptly, and said with a bright smile:

When do we depart?

Inside a two-bedroom rental apartment in Backlund, East Borough, with the curtains drawn.

Wearing a long black dress, Trissy packed her bags and prepared to head to the next hiding spot.

Her slightly round face was a little thinner than before, giving her an indescribable air of elegance in addition to her sweetness, as if she remained untouched by the dirt and chaos of the East Borough.

Trissy didn't immediately pick up the black leather suitcase. After looking around, she went to her desk, spread out a piece of paper, picked up a pen, and wrote:

"Mr. Gehrman Sparrow, I have obtained the necessary information from the chief of the royal guard: he is truly loyal to King George III."

You should understand what this means.

"Next, my goal is to find out exactly what this king wants to do. To do that, I plan to make an enemy of the ' Saintess of White ' Katarina of the Demoness Sect, who surely knows the relevant secrets."

"She is Sequence 3, an Unaging Witch, extremely difficult to kill and also very difficult to capture."

"I must admit that I am not strong enough to deal with her on my own. If you are interested and confident, then we can try to cooperate."

You know how to contact me.

Trissy.

Trissy put down her pen, folded the letter, and began setting up the ritual to summon the messenger, Gehrman Sparrow.

She only wrote to this mad adventurer at this point because she was worried that he would use the messenger to locate her hiding place and then " Teleportation " over with his helpers to attack her. Therefore, she waited until the relocation was imminent before making this attempt.

Although Trissy couldn't be sure what Gehrman Sparrow's intentions were, or whether he would suddenly attack her, she was habitually cautious and chose the procedure that would best ensure her safety.

After handing the letter to the messenger, I left and waited for Gehrman Sparrow. Until the very last moment before taking action, I tried to avoid meeting him... I don't know what forces are behind him, so I must focus on mobilizing and utilizing them, and not trust him too much... This is indeed troublesome, but safe enough... Trissy thought as she finished her work, took two steps back, looked at the candlelight, and recited in Ancient Hermes:

"I!

I summon in my name:

"A spirit wandering in illusion, a benevolent creature at your disposal, a messenger unique to Gehrman Sparrow."

As soon as she finished speaking, the candle flame swelled up and turned an unusually pale white.

Immediately afterwards, a figure stepped out from the candlelight, dressed in a somber and elaborate black dress, carrying four bright and imposing heads with blond hair and red eyes.

The eight scarlet eyes on the four heads turned simultaneously, all turning their gazes toward Trissy was directly opposite them.

Trissy's pupils dilated instantly, as if she had seen something extremely terrifying and extraordinary.

P. S.: Requesting monthly votes at the end of the month, and recommendation votes on Monday. Updates will be earlier, around midnight.

PS2: I recommend a book, " Monster Die When They Are Killed".

This is a crazy age, where the bizarre and evil walk the earth, the souls of the past return to the world, and the shadow of the end is ever-approaching.

But something seems different?

"Kill me if you want, torture me if you want... but don't come any closer!!!"

"Brother Zhou, stop hitting them! If you keep hitting them, these demons will die! Brother Zhou, please, let them go, they're too pitiful..."

Su Zhou: "It doesn't count!"

After all, Monster die when they are killed.
