After the greetings were exchanged and everyone took their seats, " Justice " Audrey's gaze swept over the three " Card of Blasphemy " placed to the right of " The Fool," and she suddenly realized that she had forgotten to ask the Psychology Alchemists for Roselle's Diary this week.

Everyone was troubled by Herabergen Rambis's situation... Audrey, who had initially managed to adjust her mindset, suddenly became even more depressed.

At this moment, the " The Hermit " Cattleya bowed her head to the head of the mottled long table and said:

"Dear Mr. ' The Fool,' I still haven't received Roselle's Diary this week."

The " Mystery Queen " hasn't provided the Emperor's diary for two weeks in a row. What happened? Klein " The Fool," sitting leisurely in his high-backed chair, felt a little puzzled and couldn't help but make a bad guess.

But he quickly dismissed the possibility, because the " The Hermit " lady showed no signs of anxiety or worry!

Given the fledgling complex displayed by " Admiral of Stars " in his dream at night in the Ruins of the Gods' Battle, if " Mystery Queen " hadn't responded for two weeks, she definitely wouldn't be so calm; she might even have been preparing to ask " The Fool " for help... In other words, she had received a reply from Bernadette during these two weeks, but it didn't include Roselle's Diary... " The Fool " Klein nodded slightly, responding calmly to " The Hermit " Cattleya:

No need to rush.

After he finished speaking, his mind raced as he analyzed the purpose of the " Mystery Queen " Bernadette's actions.

First, Klein ruled out the possibility that the other party no longer had Roselle's Diary. Considering the frequency with which the Emperor kept Record in the early and later periods, he deduced that all the diaries added up to more than ten. Even if Bernadette didn't have a third of them, she could still piece together one or two. The diaries she had provided before could only be considered a small part of this, but a relatively crucial part.

Secondly, Klein did not believe that the " Mystery Queen " had figured out all the truth from the answers he had given;

Furthermore, he was equally certain that the other party could not possibly grasp the meaning of simplified Chinese from that limited feedback, since he had never provided a detailed translation, only a vague answer in one or two sentences.

Based on these three points, he suspected that the part of the diary Bernadette was about to provide was more important, more crucial, pointing directly to certain Concealment, or was very special, making people unsure whether to seek answers. That was why this " Mystery Queen " hesitated!

That should be it... I wonder what the Emperor will write, and from what perspective and what grounds Bernadette will judge its value... I'll remember to ask the " The Hermit " lady to convey my request for a meeting later... While " The Fool " Klein was deep in thought, " The Hanged Man " Alger had already turned his head to look at " The Star " Leonard:

"Sorry, there are no reports of magical items that match your needs."

"That's normal. Correspondingly, well, there are very few Sequence 6 5 magical items in circulation." Leonard nodded understandingly.

He was sitting upright at first, but after noticing that the members like " The Moon " and " The Magician " weren't too reserved, he quietly relaxed the pressure on his back.

Seeing this, Klein Manipulation "The World" Gehrman Sparrow, making him speak in a hoarse voice:

"I have a magical item that perfectly meets your requirements in every aspect, but it has many negative effects that are difficult to avoid. Would you like to consider it?"

He was referring to the " Words of the Sea " scepter.

Klein had never intended to sell this almost sealed item to Leonard because he felt that the poet classmate couldn't withstand the negative effects of the Words of the Sea." The indiscriminate singing, the tendency to trip and whip the wielder, and the weakness of being easily struck by lightning were all difficult to avoid. Only by properly educating " Words of the Sea " above the Gray Fog and primarily having " Winner " Enuni use it could he be less affected, or even turn the disadvantages into advantages.

However, considering that Leonard had a Sequence 1 " Marauder " pathway Angel Parasitism his body, Klein felt that the other party might not be unable to solve the problem, so he ultimately decided to ask.

"Hmm, tell me about it." Leonard trusted that Klein wouldn't harm him and expressed his willingness to know the details.

"World," Gehrman Sparrow glanced at " The Hanged Man " before slowly speaking:

"It can unleash lightning on the targeted object..."

He gave a general description of the extraordinary abilities and negative effects of the " Words of the Sea," which made Leonard both excited and frown.

It can actually be used as a wand to carry me through the air... Even at Sequence 5 " Spirit Warlock," I still need to find a suitable spirit to fly... And its attack power is really strong, and its characteristics aren't singular... However, those three negative effects are simply terrifying... I'll go back and ask the Old Man if he has any way to reduce the negative effects... Leonard pondered for several seconds before saying:

"I need to think about it for a while. I'll give you an answer next week, okay?"

"No problem, world," Gehrman Sparrow replied, not at all surprised.

As for the other members, even those who were initially interested gave up on inquiring about prices after hearing about the negative effects of " Words of the Sea ".

At this moment, " The Fool " Klein's thoughts shifted in another direction: should he take the opportunity to hold a "clearance sale"?

After he advanced to Sequence 4 and became Demigod, many of his original items and traits became useless.

" Creeping Hunger " can be kept, even for the sake of " Travel," it must be kept. In addition, it can be Grazing a Sequence 4 Saint, which has the potential to grow, and the combination of its various extraordinary abilities is also quite good... The value of the "Death Knell " revolver is not actually too high, but after activating the " Fatal Attack " mode, its attack on a fixed target is still stronger than the Air Cannon. At least it can still be used in the Sequence 4 stage. Hmm, it also has room for improvement... The first things that came to Klein's mind were his two most frequently used items.

In his view, as long as he could obtain more powerful bullets, the " Death Knell " revolver could produce terrifying effects. The only problem was that such bullets were equivalent to high-level talismans, which were not so easy to collect. Even if he found the materials to make them himself, he would have to consider whether praying to a high-ranking being would be successful and whether there would be any backlash.

In this regard, Klein initially had several plans: pray to the goddess; ask " Mercury Snake " Will Auceptin for help; find Pallez Zoroast through Leonard; borrow the power of the mysterious space above the Gray Fog; and have Leonard find a mission to return to Tingen and Stealing some more power of the " Eternal Blazing Sun's " divine blood from the " Mutated Holy Emblem of the Sun," also known as "3-0782."

" Solar Flare Bullet " are definitely the nemesis of Evil Spirit spirits... I also have a preliminary idea on how to use materials that utilize the mysterious spatial power above the Gray Fog. Amon's " Worm of Time " can be used to make " Fate Siphon " talismans, and my " Worm of Spirit " should also be able to be used to make extraordinary bullets, but I still need to consult Pallez Zoroast on the specifics... Klein looked forward to his upcoming conversation with Leonard even more.

" Worm of Spirit " was the name he himself gave to the transparent worm.

Then, he began to consider other items and properties:

" The Sun Brooch "? I currently lack the ability and items for that... Although I could completely deal with Evil Spirit by Manipulation " Spirit Body Threads," I could keep it for later, to give the " Paper Angel " another variation, and sometimes I'd have to lend it to Danitz;

The " Flower of Blood " ring? It won't sell. And there aren't any Aurora Order members at the Tarot Gathering. Let the Marionette continue using it; an extra life might mean an extra chance of hope.

The " Viridescent " ring? I can sell this; I already have the ability to transfer diseases, and the " Doctor " is also Grazing within the " Creeping Hunger."

" Merfolk Cufflink "? That's pretty useless now. If I need it for a short time, I can transform into a large fish myself. For a longer period, I can just go above the Gray Fog and use the " Sea God Scepter " to add effects.

" Severed Finger?" I don't know if anyone would want it. Besides, we haven't figured out why that rat Demigod was sealed away yet, so this might be useful.

There are 1 Purification Bullets, 6 Demon Hunting Bullets, and 2 Exorcism Bullets left. They'll be gone soon if you use them up, so there's no need to sell them.

Biotoxin Bottle? Ugh, these have never sold.

The Myrmidon's Aura? This could be used to make talismans or bullets, but I won't sell it for now. The problem is, am I supposed to pray to the " Dark Side of the Universe "? Maybe I should just forget about it and see if there are any alternatives later.

A " Interrogator " Beyonder Characteristic, a " Lunatic " Beyonder Characteristic, 15 milliliters of Thousand-faced Hunter's blood, 40 grams of Spirit World Plunderer Dust, the eyeball of Six-Winged Gargoyle... These are not needed at the Tarot Gathering, but might be used to reward the followers of the Sea God or the rebels of the Roselle Archipelago in the future... With these thoughts Blink through his mind, Klein quickly made a decision.

As for items like the " Sea God Scepter," " The Groselle's Travels," and "The Key to the Giant King's Court," which are at least at the Demigod level, he has no intention of selling them at the moment.

Then, he had "The World" Gehrman Sparrow say:

"I have two magical items for sale, both of relatively low rank."

The Hermit Cattleya, immediately responded:

"A low rank doesn't mean it's useless. Many Low-Sequence abilities can even turn the tide in Sequence 5 battle. I'm very interested to know the details of your two magical items."

Klein nodded slightly and explained the functions and drawbacks of the " Merfolk Cufflink " and the " Viridescent " ring, concluding with:

"' Merfolk Cufflink ' £500, ' Viridescent ' Ring £1000."

He had barely finished speaking when " Justice " Audrey slightly raised her arm and said:

I want to buy the ' Merfolk Cufflink '.

What she really wanted to say was, "Can I have both?" After all, the negative effects of those two magical items were very minor. However, considering that others still had needs, and that she couldn't take everything, Audrey ultimately decided to take the " Merfolk Cufflink."

This provides her with another layer of phantom scale protection, making her less likely to be caught. Most importantly, since she couldn't swim, this effectively compensates for her weakness. As for the problem of easily getting tired in hot and dry weather, she is not worried because neither East Chester County nor Backlund has temperatures exceeding 30 degrees Celsius, and the humidity is relatively high.

Seeing that Miss Justice had taken a liking to the " Merfolk Cufflink," the other members rationally gave up, and none of them raised the price, so the deal was quickly completed.

Immediately afterwards, Alger the Hanged Man bought the Viridescent Ring. For him, although there were some healing spells in the water realm, none of them were as good as this professional item. As an Beyonder often needed to fight in melee combat, this was extremely important.

Alger didn't care at all about attracting mosquitoes, because he had phantom scales under his skin that made him immune to bites.

After the transaction was completed, " The Moon " Emlyn cleared his throat and spoke first.
