Waiting for the cake? That's an answer I didn't expect … No, if I can guess the answer of a mental patient, doesn't that mean I'm not far from it … The thought flashed through Klein's mind. He maintained his casual smile and asked as if he was chatting with a friend.
"Who wants to give you the cake?"
Hood Eugen's expression crumbled. His face became thinner and thinner as he wailed, "Don't worry.
He wailed, "No, no cake … no cake!"
"You stole my cake!"
His voice suddenly rose as he glared angrily at Klein with widened eyes.
Before Klein could think of a reply, Hood Eugen barked and opened his mouth, revealing two rows of white teeth.
Then, he jumped off the bed with saliva dripping from the corner of his mouth. He approached Klein and reached out with both hands, attempting to grab Klein's shoulders. Then, he dragged Klein in front of him and bit down hard.
Although Klein panicked at the sudden attack, he reacted in time. He bent his knees and half-squatted. At the same time, he turned his body and raised his left arm.
Poof!
His elbow struck Hood Eugen's abdomen, causing the latter's eyes to roll back and more saliva to drip from his mouth.
But Hood Eugen didn't stop. He went with the flow and opened his arms, intending to hug Klein tightly.
Klein tilted his body and rolled to the side. He was so familiar with it that it was as if he had practiced it hundreds of times.
He supported himself with his right hand and did a backflip. He planned to switch from defense to offense and pounce on his opponent to subdue him.
At that moment, he saw Hood Eugen standing there dumbly. His eyes had lost focus and were empty and vacant.
Klein was stunned for a moment. He turned to look at the corner of the wall and saw Dunn Smith, who was wearing a black windbreaker and a silk top hat of the same color. His hands were clenched and his head was lowered.
Captain has dragged Hood Eugen into a dream … Klein came to a realization and stopped what he was doing. He took the opportunity to take out the silver ritual dagger that couldn't hurt anyone and used it to create a wall of spirituality to seal off the single patient ward.
Then, Klein took out three candles mixed with mint and placed them on the windowsill in an inverted triangle. One symbolized the Evernight Goddess, one symbolized the Mother of Concealment, and one represented himself.
Not long after, he set up a simple altar and lit all the candles by rubbing them with his spirituality.
Just as he was about to turn around to warn the captain, Dunn had already raised his head and chuckled.
"Hood Eugen's dream is a mess. There's no way to guide him."
Before he finished speaking, Hood Eugen's eyes regained their vigor and were no longer empty.
Then, the crazy "psychiatrist" leaned back slightly and yawned comfortably.
For a moment, Klein did not know what to say, so he did not say anything and picked up the metal bottle containing the Amantha extract.
He dripped the transparent liquid extracted from the night vanilla, slumber flower, and chamomile into the flame of the candle that represented him, allowing the serene fragrance to spread to every corner of the room.
Hood Eugen's tension, anger, and comfort all disappeared. He sat lazily on the bed and stared blankly at the crimson moon outside the window. His eyes lost focus once again and were at peace.
Klein also felt the transcendent feeling of the dead of night. He put down the Amantha extract and sat beside Hood Eugen, planning to find something to make him drop his final guard.
Only then could he use the Eye of the Spirit potion to slowly make Hood Eugen's spirit enter a state of confusion.
After all, I'm just an unprofessional "spirit medium" … He had thought of a solution beforehand and took out a deck of tarot cards from his pocket.
There were only twenty-two cards in the deck, and the reason was that it was easy to carry around. It was a "weapon" that Klein had successfully applied for.
Every card was embedded with pure silver or a metal wire that could harm undead creatures. The patterns were complicated and gorgeous, making Klein want to keep it as a collection and not use it against an enemy.
Klein cut the cards with one hand and smiled at Hood Eugen.
"Let's play cards."
"Play cards?" Hood Eugen retracted his gaze from the window and repeated the word in confusion.
Klein did not reply. He stuffed the tarot cards into his hand with good intentions that could not be refused.
Hood Eugen mimicked his actions from before, using one hand to cut the cards with great difficulty and successfully completing the task.
This mental patient among the Beyonders slowly turned his attention to the card in his hand, which had excellent hardness and elasticity. He flipped the card on the surface.
A man in tattered clothes had his hands tied up and was hung upside down. There was a faint halo above his head.
The Hanging Man … Klein nodded thoughtfully. He took the opportunity to get up and hold the Eye of the Spirit potion. He dripped the amber liquid onto the candle flame — it was still the one that represented himself.
The ethereal fragrance of alcohol wafted out, making one feel intoxicated just by smelling it.
Hood Eugen's expression slowly became lax as his gaze lost focus. The tarot cards in his hand slid onto the bed one by one.
But he remained seated and did not collapse.
Klein relied on Cogitation to resist the effects that made his body and soul feel light, floating, and confused. He took out another small metal bottle from his pocket, twisted the stopper, and poured the dark blue liquid into his mouth.
Tranquility Potion!
The cold liquid flowed through his mouth, down his esophagus, and into his stomach. Klein instantly became abnormally clear-headed, no longer in a trance.
He slowly exhaled and skillfully picked up the other essential oils and herbal powders, dripping them into the two candle flames that symbolized the Evernight Goddess.
In the thin fog, he took two steps back and solemnly chanted in Hermes,
"I pray for the power of the Evernight.
"I pray for the power of Concealment.
"I pray for the Goddess's blessings.
"I pray for you to allow me to communicate with Hood Eugen and the spirituality of the Beyonder beside me."
…
As the incantations reverberated, Klein saw "darkness" spreading out from the candle flames that had been dyed with a gloomy luster.
He did not dodge or resist, allowing the dark "night" to envelop him.
In his abnormally lucid state, he felt that his Spirit Body had left the protection of his physical body and entered a void that felt like the depths of the universe. He was surrounded by boundless, soundless darkness, and the sky above his head was filled with indescribable transparent shadows of different shapes. They were pure brilliance of different colors that contained countless knowledge.
Spirit world … Klein was no longer unfamiliar with it.
Just as the thought appeared in his mind, he saw a hazy World enveloped by a glowing storm appear in front of him.
Klein knew that this represented Hood Eugen's spirit, his Body of Heart and Mind. Hence, he approached it and entered the "storm" that acted as a wall.
In an instant, he saw countless beams of light hitting his body, and he heard the murmurs of hundreds of thousands of people discussing something in hushed voices.
The murmurs were very chaotic and illogical. A moment ago, they were praising the elegance of women, and the next moment, they were describing the smoothness after using the toilet. A moment ago, they were crying, and the next moment, they were reveling …
The crazy storm of thoughts "bit" at Klein's mind in an attempt to assimilate him, but Klein maintained absolute lucidity and rationality. He quickly flew towards the interior of Hood Eugen's Mind World.
Compared to the terrifying murmurs and roars before I entered the mysterious space above the gray fog, this is like a beautiful concert … Klein chuckled inwardly. Through the storm, he saw the muddle-headed, transparent, and blurry Hood Eugen.
This Sequence 7 Psychiatrist maintained his appearance as if he was in the outside world, looking over with a blank expression.
Klein stopped in front of him and asked softly, "Do you know Lanevus?"
Hood Eugen replied in a daze,
Hood Eugen answered in a daze, "That's right.
"Yes."
The surrounding light and shadows changed accordingly, as if Hood Eugen had opened up and revealed the "sea of his mind."
Soon, the crisscrossing light and shadows depicted an ordinary-looking young man with black hair and brown eyes. He had a full forehead, wore round glasses, and wore a sarcastic smile. It was Lanevus, whom Klein had seen on the wanted poster.
Klein nodded in satisfaction, calmed his emotions, and asked in an enticing tone,
He calmed his emotions and asked in an enticing tone, "Why did Lanevus come to you?"
"He said …" Hood Eugen's voice gradually became softer.
Suddenly, he changed into a magnetic voice and laughed slightly crazily.
"Hood Eugen, this is the worst of times, but it's also the best of times. As long as we can seize the opportunity, we can also become the controllers of the World, becoming true immortals!"
"As long as you provide me with help, not only will I tell you how to control the potion's power and prevent you from losing control, I'll also promise you a bit of divinity in the future, an immortal divinity!"
"You should be able to tell who's backing me. My promise is' His' promise, and in a certain sense, Psychological Alchemy is also related to 'Him'."
"Don't doubt it. Psychological Alchemy isn't powerful enough at the moment. It can't provide you with enough help, unless you're willing to stay at your current level forever."
Controlling the potion's power and preventing me from losing control … Why does it feel like I'm using the "acting method" to tempt others … Lanevus sure is ambitious. He's only a Sequence 8, but he's already worrying about divinity … Just which hidden existence is backing him … This guy seems to be plotting something, and it's not just to swindle money … Or is swindling money just his hobby? Klein's thoughts ran wild as he listened. When he saw Hood Eugen stop, he hurriedly asked,
Seeing Hood Eugen stop talking, he hurriedly asked, "What kind of help does Lanevus want you to provide?"
Hood Eugen didn't answer immediately. The entire "Mind World" fell silent.
Then, he laughed out loud and replied in a very confused manner.
"Help … help … help!"
"Hahaha, I provided help! I provided help! "
"I let …"
At that moment, his words came to an abrupt halt. His blurry Spirit Body began to bend. The surrounding light and shadows that symbolized the "mind sea" rapidly changed, forming a sinister, terrifying, and dark altar.
On the altar, there was a cross. There seemed to be something hanging upside down from the cross, and there was a pile of blurry objects at the bottom.
The light and shadows squirmed, and the hanging object was about to become clear. The entire "Mind World" suddenly shook as if there was a magnitude 10 earthquake.
