Uncovering the " Paper Angel " covering, Klein poured the bottle of Devil blood into the ceramic jar and stirred it for a while with the materialized glass rod.

"Phew, finally I've collected them all." He gazed at them for a few seconds and sighed.

This gave him ample time to make additional preparations before George III carried out the ceremony.

As for whether the blood of the " Assassin " and the " Devil " had been severed from their original owners, Klein didn't care, because he had confirmed that the original owners of these two blood samples were already dead.

He Divination the origin of the " Assassin's " blood to find out if it belonged to the Witch Trissy. If it did, he would consider whether to save some and later apply it to the surface of Groselle's Travels.

The result disappointed him, but it didn't surprise him at all; he had long since realized that Trissy was just as cautious as he was.

Witch also have a " Instigator " Sequence, which also requires a high level of intelligence... Hmm, both " Instigator " and " Conspirer " Potion should have the effect of increasing intelligence, otherwise, Danitz's future is worrying... Klein thought to himself as he tossed the ceramic jar in front of him into the pile of junk.

He immediately returned to the real world and began to peruse the detailed ritual provided by the Witch Trissy.

This is a ritual that helps Klein communicate with Mr. "The Door" during the Full Moon.

"Nine kinds of gems in total... Isn't that a bit too extravagant?" Klein muttered to himself as he read.

As a wealthy man who still had nearly £30,000 in cash after donating a considerable amount of money (£14,000 in banknotes, £15,000 in gold bars, 35 gold coins, and some loose change), it wasn't that he couldn't afford the jewels, but he felt it was too wasteful.

After thinking for about ten seconds, Klein decided to try using the images from the Historical Void as a substitute. Anyway, he wasn't planning on pleasing Mr. "Door". Once the ceremony was over and the gem disappeared, Mr. "Door" couldn't do anything to him.

If that doesn't work, then we'll consider buying from a jewelry store... Klein stood up and began setting up the ceremony in the room outside the rented house.

After completing the other preparations, he stretched out his right hand and slowly and heavily made a grasping motion in front of him.

He pulled a simple, antique-looking brass key out of thin air.

This is the key item for summoning Mr. "Door," the " Master Key."

Immediately afterwards, Klein made a solemn grabbing motion in front of him, pulling an item out of thin air.

The object radiates a serene glow, is shaped Full Moon, and is inlaid with scarlet gemstones around its perimeter, while the center features symbols representing the Moon and numerous mysterious patterns.

" Crimson Moon Corona "!

The " Crimson Moon Corona " currently belongs to Sharron!

It can create the effect of a " Full Moon," allowing the person holding the " Master Key " to hear Mr. Door's ramblings.

If Klein only wanted to hear what Mr. "Door" was saying, this step would be enough, and there would be no need to hold any more ceremonies. However, his purpose was to communicate with the Angel King, so he still had to follow the procedure.

After placing the " Master Key " and the " Crimson Moon Corona " on the altar, Klein thought for a moment, then reached out his right hand again and plucked a handful of air in front of him.

This time, he took out a gorgeous necklace adorned with small diamonds and featuring a jade heart.

"Hmm... the experience of being Dawn Dantès. Otherwise, how could I have come into contact with so many high-society women, danced with them, and seen different styles and materials of jewelry? Without this kind of close observation, how could I easily summon the corresponding Historical Void images now? This can last for fifteen minutes, which is enough..." Klein sighed inwardly with satisfaction after easily achieving his goal.

Then, he pressed on, extending his right hand again, intending to collect the nine gems he needed from the ladies and wives he knew in the past.

The next second, his hand froze in mid-air, and his expression became quite strange.

"I forgot I can only maintain three images from the Historical Void now... What should I do? Change this necklace and find an ornament with at least nine gems? Hmm, let me think if I've ever seen anything similar. Yes, I can use ' Dream Divination Method ' to recall... This... is ' Dream Divination ' used for times like this? ' Seer ' and ' Scholar of Yore ' are quite a good match, hmm, this is also an ultimate 'magic'..." As his thoughts raced, Klein was about to find a chair to sit down and begin Divination when he suddenly frowned.

He noticed something was wrong.

Under normal circumstances, he could not forget that he could only summon images from three Historical Void at a time.

"Is this a subtle Spirituality warning?" Klein glanced at the " Master Key " and " Crimson Moon Corona " on the altar, then gently waved his right hand, causing them to disappear instantly.

Then, he took four steps backward, chanted the name of the Buddha, and came to the Gray Fog, where he sat in the place belonging to the " The Fool ".

Conjuring up paper and pen, Klein carefully wrote:

It is dangerous to speak with Mr. 'Door' at this time.

This Divination will obviously point to Mr. "The Door," causing Klein to face some backlash. However, having already gained initial control of the " Sefirah Castle " and being able to mobilize Angel- level power, Klein believes he can withstand it, especially since Mr. "The Door" is in a state of being Exile and sealed.

Klein untied the pendulum from his left sleeve, held it in his left hand, and let it hang over the words, almost touching the surface of the paper.

He immediately closed his eyes and, with intense focus, silently recited the Divination phrase seven times.

Without a sound, a shadow suddenly flashed through Klein's mind, seemingly obscuring his Spirit Intuition.

He quickly opened his eyes and saw that the citrine pendant had shattered into powder.

"Now that I have a basic grasp of the ' Sefirah Castle,' some Divination are more discreet and less likely to cause accidents?"

"Hmm, is it related to my own safety that things have turned out this way, or is it because the gap between me and Mr. 'Door' has narrowed to a certain extent? Of course, I'm referring to Mr. 'Door' in his sealed state... or perhaps, a combination of both?"

"This result indicates that there is an unbearable danger in speaking with Mr. 'The Door' at this time... Why is that?" Klein frowned, unable to make a valid deduction or come up with a reasonable explanation.

After a long while, he leaned back in his high-backed chair, shook his head, sighed, and gave up on his original plan.

"We can only make more preparations in other areas..." Klein pressed down with his left hand, and the citrine pendant instantly returned to its original state, after all, it was just a projection of the main body above the Gray Fog.

Because of the changes that occurred during the " Divination," Klein made some connections: the Distortion, transparent worm spying on the main peak of the Hornacis Mountain Range might not be as dangerous as before.

"That's most likely Sequence 1 Angel from the Antigonus Family, or even the 'Half the Fool ' that Leonard mentioned to me... If my observation can last a little longer, the chances of directly deciphering the Sequence 2 ' Miracle Invoker ' or Sequence 1 ' Attendant of Mysteries ' Potion recipe are not low. Hmm, I only have one chance. Who knows what changes will occur to that completely insane Monster... Once I've fully adapted to the ' Scholar of Yore ' Potion, I can give it a try..." Klein rubbed his temples, and his figure suddenly disappeared above the Gray Fog.

Back in the real world, he didn't rush to clean up the altar. Instead, he sat down in a chair and seriously considered what unconventional preparations he could make.

The so-called routines include: meeting with the "Mysterious Queen" to discuss the details of the collaboration; giving gifts to Will Onsetin, Renette Tinicol, and Palles Zoroaster; praying to the "Goddess of Night" to increase the probability of summoning the historical rift image of the ascetic Arianna; and mastering the core abilities of the "Ancient Scholar"...

As for unconventional ideas, that's entirely up to Klein's imagination.

After thinking for a while, Klein, with a serious expression and a slight frown, reached out his right hand and made a grasping motion in the air.

This time, he didn't bring anything with him.

Klein tried to summon ten more times, but all the summoning attempts failed, forcing him to reluctantly accept the reality:

You can't succeed by relying solely on yourself!

He immediately took out his wallet, pulled out a paper crane, and wrote on its surface in pencil:

"Give me some luck, and I'll bring you ice cream from Serenzo Restaurant."

After refolding the paper crane, Klein went into the inner room, lay down on the bed, and used sleep to restore his Spirituality.

In his hazy dream, he saw short, thin, silvery-white snakes forming a response:

Five!

"No problem," Klein promised with a smile.

The next instant, he woke up.

Klein sat up, then reached out his right hand again and grabbed ten times in a row.

Still, all attempts failed!

"Even with enough luck, it's not enough... The difficulty is too high..." Klein subconsciously wanted to tap the edge of the bed with his fingers, but he immediately restrained himself, because this action was a habit he had developed above the Gray Fog and was not suitable for the real world.

After pacing back and forth for a long time, carefully considering all sorts of connections, Klein finally left the bedroom and, using the still-untidy altar outside, brought an item back to the real world.

It was an ancient book bound in parchment with a dark brown cover.

Groselle's Travels

Picking up the travelogue, Klein took a deep breath, half-closed his eyes, as if sensing something.

Slowly, he extended his right hand and made a very small grasping motion.

fail.

I scratched it again.

It was another failure.

After five consecutive failures, Klein's movements became increasingly slow, as if he were trying to take a piece of charcoal from a red-hot furnace.

Suddenly, his arm muscles tensed, and he pulled back with unusual caution.

His right hand then slowly retracted, gradually pulling out a rather dull, antique-style quill pen.

This comes from the Resurrection Square in Kukwa, a city in the northern state of West Bairan on the southern continent, from beside the body of Ince Zangwill.

This is the "0-08" period before Amon was taken away by his brother.

P. S.: I recommend a book, "Player's Super Justice," the new book by the author of Mercury Blood, Bu Qi Shi Xian. The ability system and dungeons are very interesting.
