Report

After going up the stairs and returning to the reception hall, Klein was about to bid farewell to Roshan when he heard the brown-haired girl say in a brisk tone,

"Captain wants you to come back on Monday to deal with the chores at home first."

"… Alright." Klein didn't expect the management of the Nighthawks to be so humane, and he felt a little grateful.

He had originally planned on waking up early the next morning and taking the opportunity to go to Tingen University while he was "loitering" outside in the morning. He wanted to find the teacher in charge of the interview and inform them that he wouldn't be participating in the follow-up segment. After all, the original Klein had entered the interview with his mentor's recommendation letter. Regardless, it was basic courtesy to finish what he started. Even if it wasn't for his own good, he had to respect his mentor's feelings.

Since there were no telephones, telegrams were charged by letter, and there was no time to send a letter, riding a public carriage was the most economical and suitable method.

Now that he had the captain's special approval, Klein did not need to be so tired. He could wake up after a good night's sleep and leisurely go over.

Klein was about to take off his hat to bid farewell when he suddenly recalled something. He looked around and suppressed his voice.

"Roshan, do you know what is the beginning of the complete sequence that the church holds?"

This was something he had forgotten to ask Old Neil.

Roshan widened her eyes and looked at Klein in surprise.

"You wish to become a Beyonder?"

Was I that obvious? Klein touched the corner of his mouth and answered awkwardly,

"After knowing that the World does indeed have supernatural and mysterious powers, I can't help but yearn for them."

"My goddess, do you know how dangerous it is? Didn't the captain tell you? The enemies of Beyonders were not only cultists and dark warlocks, but also themselves! Almost every year, there would be people losing control and sacrificing their lives! Don't you think about your family's feelings? " Roshan emphasized her tone with her hand gestures, and her reaction was a little overboard. "Klein, I think it's better to be a civilian. There's almost no danger, and your salary will increase every year. After a few years, you'll have some savings, and you can rent a single-family house in the North District or near the suburbs. You can start a happy family with a charming lady, and you'll have a cute, naughty little angel …"

"Roshan, stop! Stop! " Seeing that the brown-haired girl was getting further and further away from the topic, Klein hurriedly stopped her with sweat on his forehead. "I just want, want, yes, to understand the basic common sense."

"Alright …" Roshan fell silent for a few seconds, lowered her gaze, and said in embarrassment, "Because of my father's matter, I'm always, well, you know, a little agitated when it comes to such matters. But, frankly speaking, I'm full of admiration for every man and woman who volunteers to become a Nighthawk."

"I understand, I understand." Klein quickly echoed.

Rozanne blinked her light brown eyes and added, "That's right.

"My father once said, 'Don't think that becoming more powerful and becoming a High-Sequence Beyonder will solve the latent problems and resist danger.' In fact, it's the exact opposite. You will encounter more and more terrifying things. When you encounter some unknown and terrifying existence, madness and death are the only two outcomes. Heh, he sacrificed himself two weeks after saying that … Klein, don't look at me with pity. I'm living a good life now, really good! You should be afraid of these things! "

"I just want to understand the basic common sense …" Klein didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he repeated his previous answer.

Mr. Captain explained it more clearly than you, and even if I don't become a Beyonder, I've already encountered something extraordinary …

"Alright." Roshan thought for a while and said, "I heard from Captain and Old Neil that due to the decline and extinction of Beyonder species, there are almost no High-Sequence Beyonders in this era. It's already very impressive to become a Beyonder! Our Tingen City and the suburbs have hundreds of thousands of people, probably more, but there are only about thirty Beyonders. Oh, I guessed … Oh, I didn't include those cultists and dark warlocks who live in the dark … "

Without waiting for Klein to speak, she seemed to regain her vitality and clenched her fists in front of her chest.

"And among these thirty or so Beyonders, most of them are Sequence 9s! Uh, I seem to have gone off-topic … "

"It's alright, this is also common sense that I want to understand." Klein wished that Roshan could be like her usual self, rambling on and revealing more information.

"In short, to become a Beyonder is already very impressive, very impressive!" Roshan repeated. "The complete Sequence that belongs to our Church begins with Sleepless, Sequence 9 Sleepless!"

As expected … Klein nodded indiscernibly as he listened to Miss Roshan's description.

"You should be able to guess from the name. Sleepless are people who don't need to sleep at night. They only need three to four hours of rest during the day. Phew, I'm so envious … No, I'm not envious at all. Sleep is a gift from the Goddess. It's the most blissful thing!"

"Where was I? Ah yes, Sleepless don't need light to see through the darkness. The deeper it is at night, the more powerful they are. I mean powerful in every aspect, including their strength, their spiritual perception, and their thoughts. However, although they can discover the unknown dangers hidden in the darkness, they still have to rely on items such as demon hunting bullets when they encounter monsters that can't be dealt with by normal means. My father was once a Sleepless. "

Without waiting for Klein to ask, Roshan continued, "After that is Sequence 8, Midnight Poet.

"After that is Sequence 8 Midnight Poet, and above that is Sequence 7 Nightmare."

Nightmare? Klein immediately recalled how Dunn Smith had guided him into a dream, and he asked in confirmation,

He asked in confirmation, "Captain?"

"You know about it?" Miss Roshan's mouth nearly formed an O-shape.

"Captain once entered my dream …" Klein looked to his left and right as he lowered his voice again.

"Understood …" Roshan was enlightened as she replied softly.

She picked up the coffee cup beside her, took a sip, and sighed with emotion.

She said wistfully, "The Church only has two Sequence 7 Beyonders in Tingen City. Captain should be one of them. Even in a large diocese like Baekeland, he would be a very powerful person. Some deacons might not even be stronger than him!"

"So Captain is that impressive," Klein echoed with a smile.

To be honest, Dunn Smith's appearance in the middle of the night had left a deep impression on him. He almost instinctively believed that he was a powerful Beyonder.

"Of course!" Roshan proudly straightened her back.

Then, with her mind racing, she said with a troubled expression, "Sequence 7?

I don't know what's above that. Perhaps Captain is the only one in the entire Nighthawks team who knows. "

"What about the other Sequences? The incomplete ones. "Klein changed the topic in satisfaction.

He had to say that the Sleepless Roshan described was indeed in line with his expectations and expectations of Beyonders, but it wasn't the kind he wanted to be. The perfect Sequence 9 in his heart should be able to learn and master a lot of mystical knowledge, so as to figure out the reason for his transmigration and build a foundation for his future transmigration.

Roshan thought for a moment and sighed.

"I'm not too interested in this aspect. I only know more than the other Churches. After all, the Goddess is also the Mother of Concealment … Well, there should be two or three types, because some members are always cold and scary, and they smell weird. Some members, well, I mean Old Neil, he knows a lot and knows a lot of interesting magic rituals. Let me think, let me think, he once mentioned his Sequence 9 title, which is also the name of the potion formula … Ah yes, it's called Mystery Pryer!"

A lot of interesting magic rituals? Mystery Pryer? That sounds very close to what I want … Klein was slightly delighted.

"In addition, I know the name of a Sequence 7, one with an incomplete pathway!" Roshan said in a boastful tone as she thought of something else from her recollection.

"What is it?" Klein was abnormally curious.

In a situation where High-Sequence Beyonders were scarce or even non-existent, Sequence 7

Could already be considered a core force of the Church, right?

Roshan revealed a sweet smile and replied with a hint of smugness.

"Spirit Medium!"

"Ma 'am Daly?" Klein asked subconsciously.

After his initial surprise, he felt that this matter wasn't that surprising. Only a Sequence 7 Beyonder could perform as well as Ma 'am Daly!

Rozanne's eyes widened again. She said in disbelief, "

She said in disbelief, "H-how do you know?"

"I've met Ma 'am Daly." Klein didn't hide the truth.

"Alright." Roshan said in a yearning tone, "If I can directly become a Spirit Medium, a Spirit Medium like Ma 'am Daly, then I'm also willing to be a Beyonder. No, I'll seriously consider it for ten minutes …"

"Yes, Ma 'am Daly fulfills all my imaginations of a Beyonder," Klein echoed somewhat exaggeratedly.

Having accomplished his goal, he chatted with Roshan for a few minutes. Seeing that there was no other information, he took off his hat, bowed, and left.

Walking down the stairs, Klein took a few steps before he suddenly paused. He reached out and touched the notes in his inner pocket.

Following that, he took out the twelve gold pound note and clenched it tightly in his left palm. Then, he stuffed his hand into his trouser pocket, refusing to loosen it or pull it out. A smile unconsciously suffused his face.

According to the customs of foodies, after receiving the money, one had to go out for a meal!
