Completely digested? Understandable. This is Hypnosis Demigod. Although the " Fate Siphon " spell played a role, it only helped open the Door of the Mental Body. The subsequent modification and implantation of consciousness still needed to be handled by oneself. A slight mistake could trigger strong rejection, leading to failure... Perfect Acting would inevitably accelerate digestion... Klein nodded slightly, his voice tinged with approval:
"This is a good thing, especially given the current situation."
Audrey understood what "Mr. World" meant. In the midst of this Storm originating from " Angel of Imagination " Adam and King George III, even though she was on the margins, she felt her own fragility and powerlessness, and was eager to improve herself.
She hummed in agreement.
"I will urge ' The Sun ' to provide the terms, complete the transaction, and advance to Sequence 5 as soon as possible. At that time, I hope to receive Mr. ' The Fool's' blessing and remain lucid in the dream."
Klein was prepared for this and smiled, saying:
"Actually, you don't need to wait that long. As early as tomorrow, or at the latest Friday, I can sell you a copy of the ' Dreamwalker's' Beyonder Characteristic."
Because it was a private conversation, Klein did not Acting "the world," deliberately making his voice hoarse and only slightly reserved.
"Really?" Audrey's eyes widened, unable to hide her surprise.
Klein nodded and said:
"This actually comes from Herabergen Rambis."
"The new cross that Mr. ' The Fool ' acquired allows Beyonder Characteristic to be extracted step by step."
He spoke very briefly, without going into specific steps or explaining much, maintaining a certain of Gehrman Sparrow's characteristic stoicism.
"I see..." Audrey suddenly smiled, pressing her hand to her chest, "Praise be to Mr. ' The Fool '! And thank you, Mr. 'World'."
Double the thanks... Klein chuckled inwardly, but said calmly on the surface:
"This is just a deal."
He silently muttered to himself, "I need to pay for this."
Audrey's smile remained unchanged as she asked:
"What do you need?"
"A Sequence 5 Beyonder Characteristic, 8000 pounds." Klein chose what Miss Justice could raise the fastest.
Audrey didn't pay attention to the price, her eyes flickered slightly as she thought for a moment, and then said:
"Could you sell me the separated ' Hypnotist ' trait as well?"
At this point, she smiled a little shyly:
"This is for Susie; we really owe her a lot this time."
"Well, the higher her level, the more help she can provide. And I'll reciprocate by helping her in return."
"No problem, 4000 pounds." Klein had expected this and quoted the price directly.
In his plan, the process can stop once the " Hypnotist " is reached, and there is no need to separate it further. He will leave the " Unshadowed Crucifix " in place for a long time, allowing the remaining properties to be extracted and formed all at once.
"A total of £12,000?" Audrey asked in confirmation, without feeling too much pressure.
Because she hadn't had any major expenses in the previous months, she had nearly ten thousand pounds in cash left over, which she could easily scrape together to meet her needs.
Seeing "World" Gehrman Sparrow nod, she breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"I will pay by Friday."
Having finalized the matter, she, who was already much more relaxed because Herabergen Rambis had been dealt with, became even happier and said casually:
"I'll also buy the complete brain of the adult Mind Dragon from ' The Sun,' but not in such a rush. Susie won't be able to digest the ' Hypnotist ' Potion so quickly..."
At this point, Audrey glanced somewhat sheepishly at Mr. World:
"What would be needed to exchange for Herabergen Rambis's Demigod abilities?"
Klein smiled and said:
I don't know what I might lack yet.
"Actually, besides Herabergen Rambis's extraordinary ' Manipulator ' Beyonder Characteristic, I also have corresponding Potion recipes. As you digest ' Dreamwalker,' I will gradually consider what I need and occasionally have you do things to collect resources, striving to help you accumulate enough to exchange for their contributions as soon as possible."
These words made Audrey's emerald eyes light up slightly:
"OK!"
After answering, she continued to ask with great interest:
"Is this similar to how Hugh accumulated merits within Military Intelligence Section 9?"
"Yes, this method is also used within the major churches," Klein replied affirmatively.
Audrey nodded, then asked curiously:
"Mr. World, do you know the names of the various High-Sequence Potion in the ' Spectator ' pathway?"
Klein replied simply:
" Manipulator, Dreamweaver, Discernment Eye, Author, and Sequence 0, Visionary."
... Just hearing the names makes me so excited... especially " Author " and " Visionary "... Audrey pondered for a few seconds before steer the conversation back on track:
Did Herabergen Rambis reveal what the king's secret was? And what were their motives for helping the king?
She was doing this partly on behalf of Xiu, and partly because she herself was also very concerned.
"The King's secret? He wants to bypass the Three Great Contracts signed between the Church of Orthodoxy and the royal families of various countries to become Demigod. To do this, he needs to obtain a crucial item within the ' Blood Emperor ' ruins through numerous sacrificial rituals Herabergen Rambis's answer, but it may not be the whole truth; it's likely only a part of it." Klein answered while offering his own opinion. "As for the Psychology Alchemists, or rather the ' Hermits of Fate,' what they need is a war that sweeps the entire world. This is the trend of the times they are striving to promote and hope to see."
"A war that has swept the world..." Audrey repeated softly, her beautiful eyebrows furrowing slightly, her earlier joy fading away.
Although she, given her status and position, had not yet truly experienced the cruelty of war, she was no longer a delicate flower and was already capable of imagining it to some extent.
After a brief silence, Audrey took a barely perceptible breath and forced a smile, saying:
"Hopefully we can stop this."
After exchanging a few more words, she left the Gray Fog and returned to the real world, while Klein busied himself using materials such as water, tree sap, herbal powder, Thousand-faced Hunter's blood, and Spirit World Plunderer dust to " Herabergen Rambis's Beyonder Characteristic, concocting Potion whose name was unclear but was bound to be problematic.
Then, he found an ordinary glass bottle, put the Potion inside, and saw what kind of Sealed Artifact would eventually emerge.
This would take a considerable amount of time. Klein mobilized the power of the mysterious space above the Gray Fog to construct a spherical isolation shield around the glass bottle, preventing the aftermath of the mutation from affecting the entire area.
After doing all this, he returned to 160 Böklund Street, preparing to summon the " Magic Mirror " Arrodes to inquire about the two extraordinary creatures, the " Hound of Fulgrim " and the " Demonic Wolf of Fog."
At this time, as time went by, the clouds in the sky thickened, and the Sun was once again obscured, making the whole of Backlund as gloomy and dark as it had been in the morning.
Klein stood in front of his desk, gazing at the sky outside the window, and inexplicably had the feeling that he and the Church of Evernight had overlooked some important issue.
Their investigation had been going relatively smoothly, and the intelligence they were gathering was becoming increasingly in-depth, but for some reason, it always made him feel uneasy.
This wasn't because he was influenced or misled, but because he genuinely couldn't think of anything. Even going above the Gray Fog wouldn't help, and Divination would most likely point to... well... Klein quickly gathered his thoughts, spread out a sheet of paper, picked up a pen, and drew a complex symbol that combined " Concealment " and "peeping."
One second, two seconds... a full seven or eight seconds later, the surface of the full-length mirror in the room turned deep, shimmering with water, and condensing into silver words:
"Supreme, great, and merciful Master, your faithful, humble, and modest servant Arrodes has come to answer your call."
"I... I seem to be late. I'm already considered a 'Level 1' Sealed Artifact, and it will take some time to bypass the isolation. Please forgive me, my great master."
"You're a 'Level 1' Sealed Artifact?" Klein asked, quite surprised.
He could already imagine what the recent rumors were circulating within the Church of Steam:
The mirror that loved playing quiz games suddenly went crazy!
On the surface of the full-length mirror, silver words wriggled and Reorganization, forming new characters:
"Great master, is this even a question?"
Klein wanted to answer "no," but to maintain his image, he nodded instead.
"Calculate."
The " Magic Mirror " Arrodes then conjured lines of words:
"I'm not a true 'Level 1' Sealed Artifact yet; I'm just enjoying the benefits of a 'Level 1' Sealed Artifact ahead of time. This is mainly because 'Level 1' Sealed Artifact need to be reported to other churches and their serial numbers need to be rearranged, Church of Steam doesn't want to do."
"I see, I understand..." Klein nodded slightly.
"I see."
On the surface of the full-length mirror, the water shimmered once more, and new silver words took shape:
"Supreme Master, what question do you wish to test your loyal servant Arrodes this time?"
"What do you know about the Hound of Fulgrim and the Demonic Wolf of Fog?" Klein asked bluntly, completely unaware that these were actually two separate questions.
On the mirror, the silver words seemed to come alive, writhing and changing their shape:
" The Hound of Fulgrim are unique Spirit World beings, existing in the gaps of history. Even the Seven Lights can only know of them, not truly touch them, unless they leave the gaps of history on their own to try to hunt. But even then, what we see may only be projections of their past..."
" The Demonic Wolf of Fog is a high-ranking Demonic Wolf. Having survived the fall of the ancient gods, the Cataclysm, and the hunts by the Zaratul Family, the Antigonus Family, and the Church of Evernight, it is now extremely rare. Moreover, all of them are proficient in anti- Divination and Deceit techniques, making them not easy to find..."
In other words, the Church of Evernight might possess materials or items related to the Demonic Wolf of Fog? And with this, they could go to the Spirit World and use the Law of Beyonder Characteristics Convergence and the instincts of supernatural beings to complete their own "fishing" for the Hound of Fulgrim? As Klein looked at it, he began to form some ideas.
