Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

Chapter 232: Although I don’t understand, I feel it’s so powerful
In the sacred palace supported by stone pillars above the gray fog that seemed to have never changed, Klein sat at the head of a long, mottled bronze table.

Today is Monday again, but there is still some time before the 3pm Tarot meeting. So Klein plans to use this time to browse the believers' prayers and experience the feeling of thousands of people with different faces.

Most of the prayers were directed to 'the favored one of the sea and the spirit world, the protector of the Rorsted Archipelago, the ruler of the underwater creatures, the controller of tsunamis and storms, the great Kalvetuva'.

There are only a few references to 'The Fool who does not belong to this era; the mysterious ruler above the gray fog; the Yellow and Black King who controls good luck,' but as the 'Fool', Klein clearly values ​​the latter more than the former.

So although he occasionally ignored the prayers directed to the Sea God Kalvetuwa, he never missed any prayers directed to The Fool. However, although the prayers directed to The Fool were only a small part, they were the most tiring for Klein.

Most of those who prayed to the Sea God Kalvetuwa were natives of the Rorsted Islands, and most of them had devout faith. Of those who prayed to the Fool, 40% were defrauding people under the name of the Fool, and 50% were manipulated by Amon to PUA him.

Isn't he tired of shouting on the public screen every day?

Klein complained speechlessly, but his body still obediently read through all the prayers.

Of course, it's just browsing.

Not everyone deserves his attention, and the purpose of his browsing is to avoid mistakes.

For example, a key figure like Admiral of the Stars Cattleya, if Klein had not responded to her prayers at the time, she would have mutated out of control. This would undoubtedly be a disaster for Cattleya herself, and it would also be a huge loss for the Tarot Club!

A Sequence 5 Extraordinary, the highest Extraordinary Sequence in the entire Tarot Club so far! Although Yu Jin is definitely stronger in terms of hard power, he does not rely on Sequence to make a living, so he is only a Sequence 6 Recorder now.

In addition, the other party's identity as a pirate general can also provide great convenience for the Tarot Club. Whether in intelligence or in the collection of extraordinary materials, Cattleya, as a pirate general, has an advantage over others.

After doing all this, Klein calculated the time and found that there was still about half an hour before the Tarot Club was convened.

Klein thought for two seconds and silently took out the remaining fire that looked like burning humanity.

Unlike other junk thrown into the junk pile, Klein always carried the embers with him, trying to figure out their true purpose. Although he still had no clue so far, it was very effective for divination.

Therefore, Klein decided to do one more divination before the Tarot Club was held.

Klein placed the embers on the table and wrote down the words on the parchment that divined the exact location of the embers.

After reciting it silently seven times, his eyelids drooped, and an illusory and hazy dream quietly emerged.

The town and castle located in the valley that appeared in the dream last time disappeared. Three figures, one big and two small, appeared in Klein's sight. All around him were endless plains divided into square blocks, which were planted with golden rice and wheat.

In the distance is a crimson moon hanging high in the sky, and under the crimson moonlight, the outline of the city also appears on the horizon, looming. And in the distance on the other side, there is an endless blue plane, as if it is connected to the crimson moon in the sky——

That's the ocean.

The picture shattered, and Klein woke up from his dream, frowning slightly.

"Rice is not common in this world. People's staple food is bread, and the main crop is wheat. Tingen is located in the north, and Tingen is not a big city. Except in a few specific restaurants, it is difficult to eat rice."

"It's easy to buy rice in Backlund, but the quantity is extremely limited. After all, compared to rice, people still prefer bread that can be eaten without adding water or heating it."

"Let's not talk about the Southern Continent and the disappeared East and West Continents for now. But in the Northern Continent, the main rice-growing area is the Disi Bay, located in the southernmost part of the Kingdom of Loen. One third of it belongs to the Kingdom of Feynaport. There is plenty of sunshine and pleasant scenery there. It is also the main rice-growing area in the world. The paella there is very famous."

When he thought of this, Klein was stunned for a moment, and his face changed slightly:

"Judging from the position of the moon in the two dreams, Yu Jin and the others should be heading from west to east."

"And the place where Yu Jian first 'disappeared' was in Trier. If he started from Trier and headed southeast, he would just reach the Disi Bay!"

"However, only half a month has passed since he disappeared, and their speed in the dream was not very fast. Without any means of transportation, it would be difficult to get from Trier to Disi Bay in half a month. The time does not match..."

"No, not necessarily. The time on both sides is not synchronized. The previous two times can also serve as proof. Half a month has passed here, but two or three months may have passed there..."

"Phew! If my guess is correct, then this all makes perfect sense!"

"Of course, all this is based on the premise that the location of the ember is indeed the 'Northern Continent'."

"I can only say that it is very likely, because the last time Yu Jin disappeared, he went to the God-Forsaken Land. There was a jump in time, but no change in space. It is very likely to be the same this time."

"If this is the case……"

Klein's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly thought of a joke he had seen before -

There is a man who can travel freely between ancient and modern times, but cannot bring anything back from ancient times. So he chooses to seal and bury a few boxes of gold in ancient times, and then dig them out when he returns to modern times...

Klein's eyes twitched. Jokes are just jokes after all.

Yu Jin can indeed travel through time, but if he wants to bring something from ancient times to modern times, he doesn't need to bury it underground. Because he has a soul space, he just needs to throw the thing into the soul space.

However, if Yu Jin really traveled to the northern continent of the Second Age, this information might be useful...

Klein collected his thoughts and looked down at his gold pocket watch. The time had already reached 2:59.

Klein immediately spread his spirituality and reached out to the crimson stars that symbolized the members of the Tarot Club.

On both sides of the mottled ancient bronze table, blurry human figures stretched and lengthened in the embrace of the crimson light and then became fixed. The surroundings were as quiet and empty as ever, as if no living creature had entered for tens of millions of years.

Several figures appeared in front of him one after another, both men and women.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool."

Amid Miss Justice's lively greeting, the Tarot Club members slowly came to their senses and greeted Mr. Fool, who was shrouded in gray mist. Cattleya glanced at him briefly, and her slightly dark purple eyes suddenly shrank.

Among the three men sitting opposite her, except for the Hanged Man, the Moon and the Sun have slight spiritual overflow. Similarly, the three ladies sitting on her side, Justice, Judgment, and Magician, also have slight spiritual overflow!
This shows that they all got promoted!
This shows that they have been promoted in recent days!
Excluding Mr. Fool who was at the head seat and Mr. World who was suspected to be Mr. Fool's follower, five of the remaining seven members of the Tarot Club were promoted!

The only two who didn't get promoted were her and The Hanged Man.

Cattleya was naturally well aware of her own situation. It was not easy to advance from Sequence 5 to Sequence 4. The Hanged Man was suspected to be a member of the Church of Storms, and was trying to advance to Sequence 5 without telling the Church. He should have the formula for a Sequence 5 potion and all the necessary materials. He just needed to find an Obnis to perform the advancement ceremony...

The Moon had just received a vampire baron's legacy from the Hanged Man last week, and was likely already promoted to Sequence 6. The same was true for the Sun, who had just purchased the extraordinary material he needed last week, and was probably only at Sequence 7 at the moment.

As for the three ladies on her side, they have probably already reached the level of Sequence 6 or even Sequence 5!
Is this a coincidence?
Did you all happen to take the potion this week?

'The Moon' and 'The Sun' could also be explained by coincidence, since they had only procured the required extraordinary materials last week.

But what about the three ladies on her side?
At the tarot meeting last week, they did not ask for any extraordinary materials.

This may be because they each have their own channels to obtain subsequent potion formulas and extraordinary materials, and there is no need to hide them, so there is no need to waste money on the Tarot Club. For them, the weekly information exchange may be the most important thing.

"Didn't you get any new diaries?"

Klein the Fool withdrew his gaze from Miss Justice and Miss Magician, feeling a little disappointed. But this was not surprising. After all, it had been so long, and even the thickest woolly sheep would have their skin plucked out. They needed to be given some time to rest.

The Hanged Man suddenly asked:
"Ms. Justice, have you been promoted?"

"Yes."

'Justice' Audrey nodded reservedly.

"congratulations."

After receiving Justice's personal admission, The Hanged Man's expression became complicated, and he said in a subtle tone:

"I remember that you have been a Beyonder for less than half a year. According to your current progress, perhaps you can try to advance to Sequence 4 within a year."

"Sequence 4?"

Cattleya's face slightly changed, but when she observed the expressions of others, she found that although the faces of 'Moon' and 'Sun' were full of envy, they did not seem surprised by this and did not question it.

And the Judge and the Magician didn't even show any envy, as if this wasn't a big deal...

Why? Why are they so sure that Justice can be promoted to Sequence 4 Demigod within a year?
To go from an ordinary person to a Sequence 6 Beyonder in half a year, even with the help of role-playing, he is undoubtedly a true genius. But if you want to go from Sequence 6 to Sequence 5, and from Sequence 5 to Sequence 6, role-playing alone is far from enough!
Where does their confidence come from?
Unless, they are very sure that Miss Justice has the subsequent potion formula or even extraordinary materials for the Audience Pathway... No, it is most likely extraordinary characteristics, and at least a sequence 5 and sequence 4 extraordinary characteristics!
Was this given to her by the demigod beside Miss Justice?

Unlikely.

Miss Justice had not mentioned anything like this in the Tarot Club in the past two weeks. This meant that Miss Justice had already obtained the Sequence 5 and Sequence 4 Beyonder characteristics of the Audience pathway long before this, and the source of these characteristics was no secret to the Tarot Club...

Cattleya's deep purple eyes looked towards the Fool who was sitting at the head.

In her mind, there are only two people who can do this——

One is the high and mighty 'Fool'. It would be too easy for a true god to kill a demigod.

The only other guess besides this is the 'lover' who has not appeared yet!
Cattleya is more inclined to the latter.

Because from all the signs she knew, this 'lover' was at least a Sequence 3 demigod!
"One year?"

Audrey's expression seemed a little subtle, and she murmured in a low voice:

“Maybe less than a year.”

"Ok?"

The Hanged Man was slightly startled, as if he was a little surprised that Miss Justice would say such a thing, which was not in line with her character. It was only him, and the eyes of others were more or less full of doubt.

"In fact."

Audrey caught the eyes of the other members of the Tarot Club and said softly:
"I am now Sequence 5."

"Um?!"

The pupils of the Hanged Man shrank sharply, and Cattleya, the Hermit, was also full of disbelief.

Are you kidding me?
Last week, he was only a Sequence 7 Beyonder, but this week he jumped two levels and became a Sequence 5. Do you think this is a cool novel? Although in theory there is a chance of success, the greater chance is that he will lose control because he cannot withstand the mental pollution of the potion or Beyonder characteristics!
Even if they succeed by chance, their spirit will certainly be polluted to a great extent, and even the slightest symptom will result in a drastic change in temperament. However, looking at Miss Justice's appearance, there is no sign of loss of control. Although there is a slight spiritual overflow, this is normal.

"Mr. Fool."

Audrey Justice seemed to be in a state of confusion. She cast her eyes towards Mr. Fool and said softly:
"I request a private conversation."

Klein's eyes flickered slightly. He was not surprised by this request, and waved his hand to block out other perceptions.

"Mr. Fool."

Justice seemed to take some time to sort out his thoughts, and after a long while he asked softly:

"Have you heard of 'King's Soul'?"

"King's soul?"

Klein raised his eyebrows slightly, but his expression remained calm as he smiled:
"Some understanding."

Audrey, the Justice, regarded these words as the self-deprecation of the Fool. Instead, she breathed a sigh of relief and said after careful consideration:

“Carla possesses a King’s Soul. I was able to advance to Sequence 5 because of this King’s Soul she possessed.”

"what?"

Klein was a little surprised. Are you sure you are talking about the King's Soul?
This was somewhat different from what he knew.
