Emlyn's eyes shimmered as he leaned back in his chair. He spoke in an unhurried manner as he answered Miss Justice's question with a smile, "What I need to do is very simple.
"What I need to do is very simple. I need to ensure that both sides can smoothly push things forward."
Then, you probably don't need to directly participate in the battle, right? Audrey originally wanted to press him further, but after sizing up The Moon and rethinking what she had just said, she smiled faintly.
"In that case, there's only one thing you need to do. Ensure your own safety."
Makes sense. I can't let this matter affect me. After all, there's nothing I need to do … I'm not in charge of the parts that require me to take risks. After renting Leymano's Travels and spending money to get The World to record a few pages of Teleportation, there won't be any problems with my safety … Emlyn thought for a few seconds before nodding slightly.
"Very good suggestion."
As the other parts of the Sanguine hunting operation didn't involve the Tarot members, it wasn't controlled at all. This private exchange quickly came to an end as the participants returned to the real World.
Klein wasn't in a rush to leave. After his figure vanished, he appeared on The Fool's seat again. He beckoned for the Unshadowed Crucifix and the Marauder pathway mystical item, Broken Finger, which were tied together.
At this moment, the surface of the grayish-white "forceps" that seemed to be polished from two finger bones had already surfaced. Grains of sand that appeared pitch-black and deep because they had absorbed all the surrounding light. They slowly flowed and gathered, as though they were about to reassemble into a new form.
As for Broken Finger itself, the grayish-white color turned translucent as it reflected some light. Tiny cracks appeared on it.
The Unshadowed Crucifix can actually make the Beyonder characteristics of mystical items and Sealed Artifacts slowly precipitate and reform. Of course, the premise is that there's a power similar to the mysterious space above the gray fog that suppresses it, making it "willing" to come into contact with other items that contain Beyonder characteristics … Klein nodded in satisfaction.
At this moment, the grayish-white Broken Finger suddenly buzzed and let out a passionate voice.
"Oh, my Sun!
"Praise you!
"Praise the Sun!
"…"
As the tweezer-like item sang, creaking sounds came from inside, as if it would break into pieces at any moment.
But this did not affect its praise of the Sun.
"…" Klein looked at this scene with his mouth slightly agape. For a moment, he didn't know what kind of expression to show.
After a few seconds, he sighed and separated the Unshadowed Crucifix and Broken Finger. He threw them to the edge of the junk pile in different spots and used the gray fog's power to suppress them.
Then, he prepared to leave this place and return to the real World.
At this moment, the point of light that represented The Fool's only believer and had been marked emitted rings of light as it emitted overlapping prayers.
Klein restrained his various thoughts and spread his spirituality over. Immediately, the scene of Dhaniz praying in his room appeared before his eyes, and the corresponding voice echoed in his ears.
"Honorable Mr. Fool, your humble believer requests that you pass the following words to German Sparrow:
"According to my captain, there are many things at sea that are rumored to be Vice Admiral Ailment's personal items, but all of them are fake without exception. And ever since she was injured in that attack, this pirate admiral has placed great importance on keeping her itinerary a secret. She rarely plunders. The last time her fleet appeared was two months ago, on Theros Island west of the Berserk Sea. After that, she sailed into the vast sea, and no one knows where she went.
"The foreign object in Anderson's stomach has already been under initial control. It has been isolated from his body to a certain extent, and it won't seep into his flesh for a very long period of time.
"There are two ways to completely resolve this latent danger. One is to seek the help of a Sequence 4 Unshadowed of the Sun pathway, but there's the possibility of his Beyonder characteristic being greatly purified. The second is to find the Hunter pathway's Sequence 4 Iron-blooded Knight potion formula. Through the help of rituals and ingredients, he can directly absorb the foreign object.
"Anderson is more inclined to the latter plan. He's willing to take the risk."
It's obvious that Dhaniz is imitating Vice Admiral Iceberg's answer. This doesn't seem like his normal speaking style … However, some of the words aren't accurate enough. Could it be that Dhaniz secretly changed it and used synonyms that he can understand better? H-he's worried that German Sparrow won't understand? Klein pricked up his brows and focused his attention back on the content itself.
Vice Admiral Ailment has followed the instructions of the Demoness Sect and is hiding during this rather critical period? If that's the case, it's basically impossible to capture her in a short period of time. And in another month or two, the matter might blow up completely, and there's no need to find her …
I'll first send Dhaniz to try and find her to preserve some hope … I'll shift my focus to finding Demoness Trissy. I have her contact details, and I can consider using the excuse of working together to deal with Saintess of White Katarina to get her to meet German Sparrow. I'll see if I can control her and use her to bait out Katarina …
I can help Anderson with the two methods to eliminate the latent danger. Since he's inclined to take the risk and use his advancement to absorb the foreign object, then I don't need to use Dhaniz to promote the short-term usage rights to the Unshadowed Crucifix … That's pretty good. At the very least, I don't need to worry about the crucifix Adam gave me meeting with the foreign object Adam left behind …
As for the Iron-blooded Knight potion formula, with Anderson's important role in luring Ince Zangwill out, it's not like I can't give it to him. Heh, the foreign object in his stomach is a reward from Adam … Yes, I can't directly give it to him. He's not a believer of The Fool … German Sparrow also has no reason to give him such a high-level item …
As his thoughts raced, Klein quickly made a decision. He conjured World German Sparrow and made him take a praying pose.
…
Fog Sea, inside the Golden Dream.
Bang!
The wooden door was pushed open and slammed heavily into the wall.
Amid this commotion, Anderson paused his fingers that were flipping through the pages of his book. He looked at Dhaniz, who was standing by the door with a normal expression.
"I have a very good mission for you." Dhaniz, who was draped in a cloak and without gloves, raised his chin and chuckled.
Anderson sized up the pirate in front of him and clicked his tongue.
"You seem very pleased with yourself …
"What mission?"
Dhaniz glanced at him.
"Accompany me to Theros Island and help me search for Vice Admiral Ailment.
"In addition, help me gather the Beyonder ingredients that Conspirer needs. Heh, you'll have to pay for it yourself."
Anderson nodded thoughtfully.
"So, what's the reward?"
The corners of Dhaniz's mouth curled up bit by bit as he said in a condescending manner,
"Iron-blooded Knight's supplementary material list and advancement ritual."
Anderson did not respond or speak. He stared intently at Dhaniz for nearly ten seconds.
Then, as if he couldn't wait any longer, he threw away the book in his hand and stood up. With a bright smile, he said, "
"When are we leaving?"
…
Baekeland, East Side, in a two-bedroom rental with the curtains drawn.
Trissy, who was dressed in a black dress, packed her luggage and prepared to head to the next hiding spot.
Her slightly round face was a little thinner than before. Apart from her sweetness, there was an indescribable elegance to her. Even though she was in the dirty and chaotic East Side, she didn't seem to be tainted by any dust.
Trissy didn't immediately carry the black suitcase. After looking around, she walked to the desk, spread out the letter, and picked up a fountain pen.
"Mr. German Sparrow, I've already obtained the information I need from the captain of the royal guards. He's truly loyal to King George III.
"You should understand what this means.
"Next, my goal is to figure out what this king is up to. For this, I plan on making the Demoness Sect's Saintess of White, Katarina, my enemy. She definitely knows the corresponding secrets.
"She's a Sequence 3, a Demoness of Agelessness. She's extremely difficult to kill or capture.
"I have to admit that my strength alone isn't enough to deal with her. If you're interested and confident, we can try cooperating.
"You know how to contact me.
"Trissy."
Putting down the fountain pen, Trissy folded the letter and began to set up the ritual to summon German Sparrow's messenger.
She had only written to this crazy adventurer at this point because she was worried that he would use the messenger to lock onto her hiding spot. Then, he would directly "Teleport" over with helpers to deal her a blow. Therefore, she only made this attempt when she was about to move.
Although Trissy wasn't sure what German Sparrow's intentions were, nor was she able to determine if he would suddenly attack her, she was habitually cautious and chose the process that could guarantee her safety.
After handing the letter to the messenger, I'll leave and wait for German Sparrow to contact me. I'll try my best not to meet him until the very last moment … I don't know what faction is hiding behind him either. I have to focus on mobilizing and making use of him. I can't trust him too much … This is indeed troublesome, but it's safe enough … As Trissy thought about it, she ended what she was doing. She took two steps back and looked at the candle flame.
She chanted in ancient Hermes, "I!
"I summon in my name:
"A spirit that wanders the unfounded, a friendly creature that can be controlled, a messenger that belongs solely to German Sparrow."
Just as she said that, the candle flame swelled up and turned abnormally pale.
Right on the heels of that, a figure stepped out of the candle flame. She wore a dark and complicated black dress and held four blonde, red-eyed, and bright heads in her hands.
The eight scarlet eyes on the four heads turned at the same time as they cast their gazes at Trissy.
Trissy's pupils dilated as if she had seen something extremely terrifying and impressive.

PS2: Recommended book, Monsters Will Die If They Are Killed.
This was an era of madness. Anomalies and evil creatures walked the land, and the souls of the past returned to the human world. The shadow of the end was constantly approaching.
But there seems to be something different?
"If you want to kill me, kill me. If you want to cut me up, cut me up … Don't come over!!!"
"Brother Zhou, stop fighting. If you keep fighting, this evil demon will die!" "Brother Zhou, forget it. Let them go. It's too tragic …"
Su Zhou: "It doesn't count!"
After all, monsters would die if they were killed.
