In the dim World, the gigantic crimson moon silently hung above the house. Everything in the garden seemed to be asleep.
The despair in the incomplete grayish-white dragon's eyes faded as it retracted its wings that were covered in skin. It was as tame as a domesticated hound.
Hvin Rambis, a councilor of the Psychological Alchemy Council, a demigod of the Spectator pathway, had lost his life and become Klein's marionette!
Klein couldn't be bothered to appreciate it. He directly switched places with Enuni, who was beside the grayish-white dragon. He appeared as a German Sparrow in a black trench coat and a silk top hat.
Then, he controlled his new marionette to treat the Mental Plague he had been infected with.
A gentle and cool wind blew over, crossing the sea of collective subconscious and seeping into Klein's island of consciousness. It made him feel as if there was something smelly, rotten, split, and contradictory in his mind and body. Bit by bit, it was being gathered into a ball and removed like a surgical incision.
Klein's face immediately contorted as he revealed a grimacing expression. Once again, he felt the extreme pain of his soul being torn apart.
Thankfully, in order to create Control Spirit Bullets and Yesterday Once More charms, he was already used to this feeling. He didn't hold his head and roll on the ground.
After the highly contagious mental "virus" was separated from the infected consciousness, the cool wind turned into a warmth that made one want to take an afternoon nap. It made Klein's injured Spirit Body relax, as though he was soaking in a bathtub. His body and mind were nourished as he began to rapidly grow and recover.
After he recovered from his mental illness, the gentle wind that blew over suddenly turned violent. It swept in all directions, clearing away all the remaining "viruses" in the air.
After doing all of this, Klein made the grayish-white dragon quickly shrink its body, restrain its godhood, and return to its human form.
However, as Hvin Rambis's clothes had been torn to shreds, the grayish-white scales on his body didn't retract.
A few seconds later, the leader of the Church of Evernight ascetics, Arianna, who wore a simple robe and a tree bark belt, walked out of the gigantic crimson moon. She stepped into the void and arrived diagonally above Hvin Rambis.
The angel reached out his right hand and gently grabbed, causing Hvin Rambis's blurry soul to leave his body and float above his head.
"Why are you helping George III?" Arianna asked directly.
Hvin Rambis's confused expression turned serious.
"This is the choice of the era. This is the inevitability of fate. We are only following the trend and making a certain amount of guidance so that the era will develop in the right direction."
The standard answer of the Twilight Hermit Order … From the looks of it, even the demigods of Psychological Alchemy don't know what Adam's true goal is … Even the official members of the Twilight Hermit Order probably don't know … Klein thought without any psychological burden as he relied on the fact that he was hidden in the World.
Arianna didn't reveal a surprised expression.
"What's the next trend?"
Hvin Rambis's eyes weren't focused, but he replied with a rather solemn expression, "A war.
"A war, a war that engulfs the entire world."
This … Isn't peace good? Klein frowned slightly as he couldn't help but mutter inwardly.
He knew very well what kind of damage a war of the World would bring to humanity.
He only hoped that he and the Church of Evernight could quickly grasp the crux of the matter and successfully prevent the war that the Twilight Hermit Order was trying its best to push for.
Arianna fell silent for a second before asking, "What's George III's secret?"
Hvin Rambis fell silent for a second before asking, "What's George III's secret?"
A smile appeared on Hvin Rambis's face.
"Every king is bound by the Three Great Contracts. The highest they can reach is Sequence 5. And with our help, he bypassed this obstacle. In essence, he already possesses a higher status. All he needs to do is wait for the tide of the era to come before he can successfully ascend to the position that belongs to him."
Three Great Contracts … What's that? Yes, it's understandable for a king to only reach Sequence 5. After all, under the premise that Mystery doesn't appear in the world, it's best for the king to be replaced normally. The people can understand if they live to eighty or ninety years old, but if they're still alive and kicking after one hundred and twenty, it will definitely cause speculation and panic … George III cooperated with the Psychological Alchemy and the Demoness Sect just to live longer? Normally speaking, this is only a restriction from the king. It wouldn't affect the other members of the Augustus family. They should have Grounded Angels among them, so there's no reason for them to support George III … Many questions surfaced in Klein's mind.
"George III isn't a demigod yet. He's only obtained a higher status through some means and acted ahead of time?" Arianna asked unhurriedly.
To the Church of Evernight, this was a rather critical problem. If George III was already a demigod, then they could directly contact the Church of Storms and Steam to capture him. This was because the king's existence was evidence.
Hvin Rambis's soul nodded.
"Yes."
"What's the exact method?" Arianna continued asking.
Hvin Rambis slowly shook his head and said, "I'm not sure.
The person in charge of this matter is our president. I only remember him mentioning once that he wanted to make George III more talented. "
More talented? Upon hearing this description, Klein immediately acutely associated it with the contents of Rosell's diary.
In the eyes of that emperor, the so-called talent was to make one's mind and soul more like that of an ancestor with a higher status. From there, one could obtain the recognition of the corresponding Beyonder characteristic or the mental imprint in the Sealed Artifact, allowing one to easily overcome the negative effects of consuming the potion and wielding the Sealed Artifact.
This wasn't a perfect method, and it could even be said to be extremely dangerous. This was because the mental imprint would change the soul of the consumer or wielder, causing them to experience a certain mutation.
If anyone were to use such a method to advance to a demigod, it was very likely that they would become a stitched monster!
Has George III been hypnotized by someone to actually accept such a method? No, if it's hypnosis, the Augustus family's angel or Sealed Artifact will definitely discover the problem … Klein became increasingly puzzled as he waited for the floating ascetic leader to ask another question.
Arianna clearly knew what "more talented" meant. Without any change in expression, she asked,
Without any change in expression, she asked, "Who's your president?"
Hvin Rambis revealed a look of reminiscence.
"He has many identities and many names, but as long as I see him, I can confirm that he's the president of our Psychological Alchemy.
"His current identities and names are:
"One of the Four Kings of the Sea, King of the Black Throne, Barros Hopkins. The former chancellor of Baekeland Medical College, the royal family's medical consultant, the 'dead' Pauli Derlau. The famous recluse of the Central Sonia Sea, Eric Drake …"
King of the Black Throne … Only then did Klein realize that he had heard of this title before. However, he always ignored it and didn't take it to heart. He rarely thought about it.
So this Pirate King is from the Spectator pathway … He nodded in enlightenment.
Arianna listened quietly and asked, "What secret is George III hiding in the Blood Emperor's ruins?"
"What secret is George III hiding in the Blood Emperor's ruin?"
"It's something very important. He wants to grasp it, and this requires a lot of sacrificial rituals."
"It's an extremely important thing. He wants to control it, which requires a lot of sacrificial rituals."
"What is it?" Arianna asked without any hesitation.
Hvin Rambis was taken aback.
"I, I don't remember …"
He suddenly raised his hand and covered the head of his soul, appearing to be in great pain.
But no matter how hard he tried, he could not remember the answer.
Did Adam or an angel of the Spectator pathway "wipe" that memory away? Klein watched with a solemn expression, increasingly feeling that the secret in the ruins might be more important than he had imagined.
Arianna was silent for a few seconds before looking down at Klein.
"What do you want to ask?"
Klein thought for a moment and said to Hvin Rambis, "Let's go.
"What are the names of the High-Sequence Sequence potions of the Spectator pathway?"
Hvin Rambis's soul's pain was alleviated as she slowly replied, "I'm not sure.
"Sequence 4 Manipulator, Sequence 3 Dreamweaver, Sequence 2 Clairvoyant, Sequence 1 Author."
He didn't mention Sequence 0 Visionary, so it was obvious that he didn't know.
"What is the Manipulator potion formula?" Although Klein felt that his question was slightly vulgar compared to Ma 'am Arianna's, he still spoke.
Without any hesitation, Hvin Rambis said in a daze, "That's right.
"The main ingredients are the complete brain of an elderly mind dragon, or the crystallized heart of a Tree Mentor, or the Beyonder characteristic of a Manipulator.
"The supplementary materials are 80 milliliters of an elderly mind dragon's blood, three golden leaves from the Tree Mentor, and one drop of tears from seven different humans or human-like creatures that are produced by intense emotions …
"The ritual is to consume the magic potion in a special occasion with at least ten thousand people while they resonate with their emotions."
In comparison, the difficulty of the Spectator pathway's demigod ritual isn't that high … That's right. A Spectator can self-treat and analyze themselves. They can effectively resist the madness and loss of control brought about by the potion, so the ritual can obviously be simplified … Klein nodded in thought.
"What is the potion formula for Dreamweaver?"
"I don't know." Hvin Rambis shook his head.
Alright … Klein then asked Hvin Rambis why she had personally come to Audrey and received the corresponding answer.
Then, he said to Arianna, "I have no more questions."
Hvin Rambis couldn't answer the questions he had.
Arianna gently pressed down with her right hand, allowing Hvin Rambis's soul to return to his body.
Following that, the angel glanced at Klein and said calmly, "Don't worry, Klein.
Following that, the angel glanced at Klein and said calmly, "Don't use him as a marionette.
"Don't use him as a marionette.
"Before his mental imprint is removed, it's best not to use his Beyonder characteristic to create items."
Of course, I don't wish for Adam to pay me a visit … Klein nodded sincerely.
"I'll keep that in mind. Thank you, Ma 'am Arianna."
