Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina didn't have any change in expression because of German Sparrow's request to consider it. She calmly nodded.
"There's no rush."
She seems to think that I'm unable to make the decision alone for such a huge transaction. I have to seek the secret organization backing me … Is this something I can't decide on? This is a problem of not having money! Klein lampooned himself, closed Groselle's Travels, and asked in a deep voice,
He asked in a deep voice, "Do you know who the author is?
"What was the outcome of the person who once owned this book?"
Edwina walked in front of him and extended her right hand. She stroked the cover with her finger.
"Due to the fog of history, the sinking of the ship, and the loss of the corresponding information, the previous owner can no longer be verified. Similarly, there's no way to determine who the author is. Uh, there's no signature on it.
"We used some mystic arts to do some research and discovered that the goatskin was made at least three thousand years ago, before the Cataclysm.
"This is also the reason why I believe it's worth at least 8,000 pounds."
A book from three thousand years ago. Apart from dragons and elves, there are also human ascetics, nobles of the Solomon Empire, and Rouen soldiers … These are all concepts that only appeared in later eras! A magical book that hides a prophecy? Or did someone specially use ancient goatskin to make it? But what's the point of that? Is it just a prank? Klein deliberately curled the corners of his mouth without revealing a smile.
"The giant's name is Rosell. Could the author be Rosell?"
"No. The name Rosell originates from the dismantling of Jotun. It changed a second time when ancient Feysac evolved into Intis, giving it a different meaning … "Edwina explained the etymology of the name Rosell in detail. Klein was taken aback as he felt like he was back in school.
He nodded slightly and said in an unperturbed tone,
"If this is an ancient work, I'm very curious why a frost dragon is called the King of the North. What Sequence does it correspond to?"
Edwina raised her gaze from Rosell's Travels and looked at Klein.
"Before the first Blasphemy Slate appeared, there was no concept of pathways and Sequences. Furthermore, many creatures wouldn't follow such arrangements. In that epoch, chaos and madness were the main themes.
"Some dragons might gather many Beyonder characteristics related to frost, just like a Demoness's frost, a Zombie's frost, or a Weather Warlock's frost. This way, it will possess extremely powerful strength and a rather high level. Of course, such a gathering will definitely bring about death and loss of control.
"This means that if it didn't die, it would definitely lose control and become a monster. However, the dragon itself is a monster.
If there are many similar products among dragons, giants, and elves, then it's understandable why the Second Epoch is called the Dark Epoch … Klein pondered for a moment and muttered to himself, but also as though he was asking a question.
"This results in a waste of Beyonder characteristics."
Edwina looked at him for a few seconds.
"Emperor Roselle once said, 'That's right.
"Everything that separates must gather, and everything that gathers must separate."
"The Emperor said it before? I understand the first sentence. It's another way of expressing the law of Beyonder characteristic convergence. What does the second mean?
"When convergence reaches a certain level, there will be a tendency of separation and rejection? When they don't belong to a single pathway and are gathered together in a very chaotic manner, there will be a separation effect? The more chaotic it is, the more they reject each other?
"The Emperor probably wouldn't have said such words to anyone. It definitely wouldn't be in the sayings that are circulating outside … I guessed from Rosell's use of dreams and Madam Lieutenant General's surname that she's a descendant of one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, Edwards … The possibility is extremely high …
"After the Emperor perished, their family fled to Lenburg and gradually converted to the God of Knowledge and Wisdom?
"What a good teacher. She answers every question!"
Klein didn't speak further as he admired the other items in Vice Admiral Iceberg's collection.
At the same time, he had an idea. It was to ask Little Sun through The World at the Tarot Gathering to see if he knew anything about Rosell's Travels.
Of course, to prevent The Hanging Man from figuring out that there was something amiss with The World and thus detect The Fool's abnormality, he decided to communicate alone and block out others.
After a brief tour, Edwina led Klein out of the collection room and into the captain's room in the pirate cafeteria.
"The more special food here is yogurt. You can add strawberries and other jams, or you can directly add honey …" Edwina pointed at the row of food outside the door and said, "There are a few types of dried fish that aren't bad either. They come from the deep sea and have yet to be named."
As she spoke, she gestured for Klein to take it and bring it back to the room. She then stood up and set an example.
Klein took a portion of yogurt made by an unknown person and added a few spoonfuls of honey into it. Then, he picked up a plate and placed pork sausages, butter bagels, and other food into it.
During this process, he saw a young man dressed in a white shirt, black vest, and a flowery bow tie. He looked more like a clerk than a pirate as he approached Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina and whispered to her.
The man looked pretty good. His hair was slightly blonde, and the roots of his hair were rather black. They were neatly combed to the sides.
His eyes were a very light lake-green color. His nose bridge was high, and his lips were rather thin. He had a trustworthy bearing.
"Don't be fooled by this guy's appearance. He's a wolf-fish can. It's filled with a foul stench!" Dhaniz had entered the pirate cafeteria at some point in time. He came to Klein's side and whispered in contempt.
Klein turned his head to glance at him without saying a word. This was because he knew that Dhaniz would take the initiative to explain.
Without waiting for Dhaniz to speak, the man with a fat waist beside him said with a slightly shrill voice, "He's the third mate, Jodeson.
In the past, he was a playboy cum pirate. He said that he wanted to steal our captain's heart, but he ended up getting beaten up. He was left behind to be educated. Dogsh * t! "
"In short, he's not a good guy!" Dhaniz emphasized.
"Not a good guy!" another pirate with iron-black skin echoed.
Why do I have the feeling that all of you are the same … Klein thought and said,
"Flowery Bow Tie Jodeson with a bounty of 5,200 pounds? Sequence 6? "
It's indeed a standard German Sparrow reaction … Dhaniz looked over and said with a hint of lingering fear in his disdain, "He's not too strong.
He's just very strange. When I fought him, no — when I fought him, I suddenly couldn't use fireballs, and he could mimic my fire powers. "
A very familiar description … Klein subconsciously looked at Jodeson and carefully recalled where he had heard it before.
This was very similar to a Sealed Artifact behind Tingen City's Chanis Gate, Blood Vessel Thief!
Klein couldn't recall the Blood Vessel Thief's Seal number, but he clearly remembered that it could temporarily steal the Beyonder powers of others for its own use.
Corresponding pathway? Klein retracted his gaze and realized that Dhaniz and his two companions were drinking as they looked over in concern.
Recalling how Danitz had divulged the matter of him sacrificing Kalvetua, Klein took a glass of beer, carried his plate, and walked to the Captain's dining room.
"You all like her, right?"
Pfft … Pfft … Pfft … Behind Klein, the sound of alcohol spewing out sounded almost at the same time.
From the corner of his eye, he saw Dhaniz jump two steps back. He first looked over in horror before turning his head in a relaxed manner to size up his companions.
They had unknowingly distanced themselves from each other. The look in their eyes turned rather complicated, as though they had been deceived.
Klein didn't stop as he returned to the captain's dining room and enjoyed the delicacies of the morning.
After a while, Edwina returned with a plate of food.
She drank a mouthful of milk and paused for two seconds.
"Dhaniz showed me your messenger summoning ritual.
"It mentioned that a gold coin is needed as a material.
"I'm a little puzzled. Is this referring to the gold coin of Rouen, Intis, Feysac, or something else? Their weight is different, and the gold content is different as well. "
Klein thought for a moment.
"The gold coin of Rouen."
That's also the most valuable gold coin … Anyway, I don't have to pay for it … Klein added inwardly.
Edwina nodded.
"You have to pay when you receive a reply?"
"Different spirit world creatures have different preferences." Klein tersely acknowledged.
He knew that Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina was a researcher of spirit world creatures, so he believed that she could understand what he meant.
Moreover, he didn't lie. He only hid the fact that the owner of the messenger could pay for it.
"Yes." "I once tried to find a messenger, but all I could do was figure out the incantation myself. Not only was it dangerous, but it was also very difficult to obtain a satisfactory one. Finally, I gave up.
"That's one of the reasons. The other reason is that the simulated power of the dead can't be used to sign the contract.
"Your incantation gave me a lot of inspiration."
Klein ate his breakfast in silence. He didn't explain anything to the other party because this knowledge came from Mr. Aztec's teachings. Without his permission, he wouldn't spread it.
After a delicious but quiet breakfast, the Golden Dream approached the private harbor and dropped off Klein and Dhaniz.
Dhaniz looked back at the shining golden ship and suddenly sighed.
"I feel like my friendship has sunk into the ocean!"
Klein pressed his hat and said calmly,
"Losers can form an alliance."
"…" Dhaniz wasn't sure if he should be happy or sad.
After changing his identity and forging identification to buy a ticket back to Bayam and successfully boarding the ship, Klein finally had his personal space.
He entered the washroom and went above the gray fog. He browsed through the prayers of the Sea God believers.
This time, the first thing he saw was the bald Resistance member, Kalat.
"O 'Mighty God, we discovered red-haired Elaine's whereabouts. She's hiding in the Intis consulate.
"This was confirmed by a laundry maid and a gardener."
