With the help of the power of the mysterious space above the gray fog, Klein quickly recovered his mental state and continued reading the second chapter of Sights in the Spirit World.
The owner of the notebook, a traveler from the House of Abraham, claimed that he had encountered an elder in a lemon-yellow robe when he wandered deep into the spirit world.
The elder's body was translucent, and he looked abnormally similar to the surrounding spirit world creatures. However, his attitude was surprisingly kind.
The traveler from the House of Abraham conversed with the elder for a while, and he was surprised to learn that the elder was one of the seven pure lights that covered the highest point of the spirit world, Yellow Light Venithan.
Venithan told the traveler from the House of Abraham that his traits were rationality and adaptability. He was the symbol of astrology, and his corresponding gem was emerald.
He mentioned a prophecy that came from himself rather worriedly:
"Gaze from the starry sky. The land will split apart, and everything in the world will cease to exist."
He believed that this was the final apocalypse that would come within two hundred years, and that nothing in the world would be spared.
The traveler from the House of Abraham didn't think much of it and didn't ask further. Instead, he asked about how to remove the curse on his family's bloodline.
Yellow Light Venithan told him that, in a sense, it was indeed a curse, but it had a completely different nature from the curses in mysticism. The solution lay in the future, in the hands of an Apprentice who had received the help of a secret existence.
He also warned the traveler from the House of Abraham that the day the curse was lifted was the beginning of the true calamity for the Abrahams.
As for what calamity it was, he said that he wasn't sure either. He believed that it involved a mighty existence at the level of a deity.
In the second chapter of Sights in the Spirit World, the owner of the notebook also mentioned something else that Yellow Light Venithan had mentioned. The ruler of the Pure Light Brotherhood, the seven pure lights, would often enter the World in the real world. Through different methods, they would transform into humans and teach them the corresponding knowledge. Since the Fifth Epoch, many mentor-level figures in various fields were their incarnations. For example, the greatest astrologer in the past thousand years, Di Forsman, who had proven that the current World was a planet, was the human incarnation of Yellow Light Venithan.
The owner of the notebook made a guess. Rosell Gustav, who was known as a mentor in many fields, might be the embodiment of that pure light.
No, he's not … If you really want to think of it that way, then he's probably a green light … Klein raised his hand and rubbed his temples.
Based on this, he determined that the owner of the notebook wasn't an ancient Beyonder. And from the fact that the other party didn't address Rosell as Emperor, this trip to the spirit world had likely taken place when Rosell was an consul, or when he had just become Emperor and hadn't gained widespread recognition.
Of course, it couldn't be ruled out that the Beyonders of the House of Abraham refused to recognize any emperor other than the Tudor.
A traveler who can travel the spirit world isn't a low Sequence. And if he was a High-Sequence Beyonder, Mr. Door would've long been rescued, and the so-called bloodline curse would no longer exist. Therefore, the owner of the notebook is a Sequence 5 Beyonder, or a Sequence 6 with the help of a mystical item … Although the House of Abraham has declined, it's not weak … Why is Yellow Light Venithan's prophecy extremely similar to what the Demoness Sect and the Aurora Order claim, that the apocalypse will eventually come? From the time I just calculated, it's only twenty to thirty years before the apocalypse? Klein frowned as he thought.
Rosell became consul in 1173, and it was now November 1349, 176 years ago. And back then, Yellow Light Venithan had prophesied that it would be within two hundred years. Considering that Klein had only calculated the interval, it was possible that it would be twenty-four to fifty years before the apocalypse (Rosell became Emperor in 1192 and was assassinated in 1198).
Although the first two chapters of Sights in the Spirit World didn't have any practical knowledge, it had completely broadened his horizons. It allowed him to learn a lot about the situation in the spirit world, as well as the existence of the Seven Pure Lights and the Pure Light Brotherhood.
As it turns out, when I advanced, transformed into a spirit body, and held the corresponding ritual, the pure brilliance that I could see at an extremely high place that contained countless knowledge was the Pure Light of the spirit world. Moreover, they were alive and had their own thoughts … How fascinating …
The first two chapters of Sights in the Spirit World aren't completely devoid of practical knowledge. At the very least, I know that Yellow Light's true name is Venithan, and that its corresponding gem is emerald. I know many details, and I can design some secret deed rituals that point to it … But it's temporarily useless …
Klein pondered for a moment, closed the notebook he had copied, and returned to the real World.
Compared to channeling Yellow Light Venithan, he had more important matters to attend to.
Klein took out a piece of paper, picked up a fountain pen, and wrote a letter to the inventor, Leppard. He asked where the patent approval for the bicycle was at, why it hadn't been successful, and if he needed the help of a lawyer. With the establishment of the Magicians's Code, the complete digestion of the potion wouldn't take more than two months. He had to save up enough Beyonder ingredients for his advancement to Sequence 6 Faceless as soon as possible.
Among them, the Sun might provide one for free because of the All-Black Eye, but the other still required Klein to think of a way himself.
According to what he knew, the corresponding Beyonder ingredients for Sequence 6 were basically more than 1,500 pounds, and they were often priceless.
Apart from the two main ingredients, the supplementary ingredients included the blood of a Thousand-faced Hunter and the hair of a Deep-sea Naga. They were two extremely rare items that were rich in spirituality, and they were similarly expensive.
It's really hard to earn money, but it's easy to spend it … If only the Werewolf Beyonder characteristic and Interrogator Beyonder characteristic could be sold … I can't even waste one soli and one penny … Klein sealed the envelope and stuck a stamp on it.
He didn't need to count to know how much money he had.
624 pounds in notes, five one-pound gold coins, seven soli notes, and some copper pennies.
By the way, there's also the 600 pounds that Miss Magicians and Miss Xio will pay for the Sheriff Beyonder characteristic. I hope they can raise the money as soon as possible … Klein silently blessed the two ladies.
…
"You're saying that the Beyonder circle you just joined has two Beyonder ingredients for the Sheriff potion, and the price is very fair, a total of 600 pounds?" Xio widened her eyes as she asked furiously.
She had just returned from East Borough to investigate who had been asking about Capim recently.
"Yes, it's a very reputable seller. The only problem is that the assessment is very strict. I won't be able to bring you into that circle in a short period of time," Fors said the truth.
"That's great!" Xio didn't suspect her friend and took two steps forward in excitement.
Suddenly, her expression collapsed.
"But, I don't have enough money …"
The corners of Fors's mouth twitched.
"How many pounds do you have now?"
"Including the initial payment of 30 pounds for this commission, I have a total of 310 pounds. I'm still short by half!" Xio scratched her short blonde hair. "Let me think, where can I borrow 300 pounds … The bank won't give a bounty hunter like me a loan, and those loan sharks charge too much interest … Perhaps I can find Miss Audrey?"
She had heard from her friend that she had recently bought the Trickmaster potion formula and spent a total of 450 pounds, so she had no intention of borrowing money from Fors.
"Why are we all so poor?" Fors couldn't help but sigh. "Miss Audrey hasn't been out much recently. She seems to be busy with other matters, so it might not be timely to borrow money from her. Uh … We can first look for Viscount Glaint. If it's too late, I'll help you pay for it. I still have 430 pounds. That's enough."
Xio blinked her eyes and suddenly lowered her head.
She said in a deep voice, "Fors, you're so nice.
"When I advance to Sheriff, I'll be able to earn even more money!"
Fors smiled and shook her head.
"So, how about you clean up the room today?"
…
City of Silver.
Derrick left the training field and returned to his home.
He had already asked the exploratory team members when they would be released from quarantine and received the answer, "when the lightning calms down today."
Sitting at the old wooden table, Derrick deliberated over his plan again and recalled Mr. The Hanging Man's reminder.
"If there's no suitable audience that can testify for you, you might as well make use of the Beyonders monitoring you."
But how do I know when I'm being monitored … Mr. The Hanging Man said it with certainty, but it wasn't detailed enough … Derrick had many doubts, but he couldn't find a way to confirm it.
Although he was embarrassed to ask Mr. Fool for advice on this question, considering that this concerned the survival of the City of Silver, he mustered his courage.
He lowered his voice and chanted The Fool's honorific name, briefly describing the difficulties he had encountered.
After a while, he saw Mr. Fool sitting in the middle of the endless gray fog and heard a concise response.
"Touch the item in the metal box for no more than three heartbeats. Be prepared in advance and pay attention to the source of the black lines."
That simple? Derrick thanked Mr. Fool in pleasant surprise.
He adjusted his posture and quietly reached his hand into a hidden pocket inside his clothes.
With the wall of spirituality removed, Derrick's fingers opened the metal box and carefully probed inside.
Suddenly, he touched a cold object, and black, illusory lines appeared in front of him.
At the same time, his mind buzzed, and an illusory roar seemed to pour into his ears.
Derrick's body twitched violently as tears and snot flowed down his face from the pain.
He almost forgot what he wanted to do, but fortunately, his line of sight was where the illusory black lines gathered.
There seemed to be a shadow in the dark corner!
Derrick immediately retracted his hand as if he had touched a red-hot soldering iron.
He lay down, twitching as if he had been struck by lightning. He couldn't close his mouth at all as saliva dripped down.
After nearly a minute, Derrick recovered, closed the metal box again, and sealed it with a wall of spirituality.
He stood up and drank a mouthful of cold water. He already knew that someone was monitoring him.
After an unknown period of time, Derrick suddenly heard knocking on the door.
"Who is it?" he asked blankly.
A cheerful voice came from outside the room.
"It's me, Darke. The exploration team has been released from quarantine.
