Mystery: Big Alarm Clock Ghroth Path

Chapter 426 Promotion to "Insightful One" (Thanks to the audiobook listener for the donation of reading coins)
Call me Roger.

Roger touched his face, while glancing at Cecilia beside him.

Although Roger and Fors were colleagues in the Tarot Society, she was Roger's follower in the Hercules School, and due to the influence of the Abraham family, she always held Roger in high esteem.

So she didn't change her way of addressing him immediately and still habitually called Roger "Mr. Wheel of Fortune".

Cecilia, on the other hand, didn't show much surprise at Fors's way of addressing Roger, because she knew that the two of them ran a secret organization and sometimes called each other by code names.

However, she was unaware of the differences between these code names, and also unaware that in addition to the "He Xing School," there was also the "Tarot Society."

Now, reminded by Roger, Fors quickly realized what was happening.

“Okay, Roger.”

"Yes, Not Bad."

Roger nodded in satisfaction, and then added:
"From now on, I will only use my job title when I am at work."

He then continued to explain:

"There are two reasons. The first reason is that I currently have a pretty good relationship with the top-level entities of these eight pathways... except for the 'True Creator,' of course, but that's not a big problem."

"what?"

Fors and Cecilia were momentarily bewildered upon hearing this.

"Does the top level refer to angels, or...?"

Fors didn't say the word "Sequence 0".

"All of them."

Roger gave a rather vague explanation, and then, to Fors's astonishment, continued:

"As I said, because we have a good relationship, it is safer for extraordinary individuals who use these methods to become my new followers, and it also reduces systemic risks within the organization."

"The previous attempt by the 'Hidden Sage' to influence the 'Hexing School' through Master 'Qiu' was a very bad sign. Given that our Speaker is an Extraordinary with the 'Secret Seeker' pathway, there must be Extraordinary with the friendly pathway among the higher-ups."

"clear."

Fors nodded. She knew a little about the secrets behind the "Autumn" Master incident, and since it involved the issue of evil gods, she couldn't afford to be careless.

"By the way, I have another question."

Forl thought for a moment, then asked:

“I know who the highest level of ‘Sailor,’ ‘Singer,’ ‘Audience,’ ‘Secret Prayer,’ and ‘Reader’ is, and I also know the ‘Thief’ and ‘Door’ pathways.”

"Which one is the 'diviner' approach?"

She inquired with some curiosity, noting that Fors now possessed much more knowledge of the extraordinary realm than when she first joined the "Tarot Club."

"This is a difficult question to answer."

Roger thought for a moment:
"You'll know later."

This is indeed a difficult question to answer. If we were to say, Antigonus is currently the closest person to the position of "Fool," the only problem being that he is in very poor condition.

If Klein survives his competition with Amon, he has a high chance of ascending to the position of "The Fool".

However, these questions could not be revealed to Fors, as she was not yet a demigod and was not qualified to participate in such high-level affairs.

On the other hand, Roger did not intend to expose Mr. Fool's true identity, nor did he want him to acquire an "anchor" associated with "Follower Fool" so quickly.

This is not a good thing for Klein at the moment. Roger does not intend to affect Klein's work rhythm. The latter has his own plans and does not need too much interference from others.

"Ok."

Fors nodded, and then said:

"And the second reason?"

"The second reason is that I want to conduct an experiment."

Roger began:

"But I can't tell you the specifics of the experiment yet. I'll have to wait until I've determined some details before I can tell you."

In fact, Roger's idea was quite simple: in addition to developing followers through other pathways, he also wanted to try to get extraordinary individuals from the "Mysterious Three Paths" and the "Omniscient and Omnipotent Five Paths" to switch to the "Judgment Star" pathway!

After he fully digested the "Black Prophet" potion, he used the power of the "Primal Core" and the "leaking" effect of "Dark Annihilation" to decipher the complete potion recipe from Sequence 9 to Sequence 3 of the "Judgment Star" pathway, restoring the original vague description of "extraordinary characteristics" to the original potion ingredient recipe.

Starting from Sequence 6, the potion ingredients for this path will begin to involve alien objects from interstellar space, and this becomes even more extreme at the demigod level. For example, Sequence 4 requires "Star Wanderer's Star Core" and "Ionized Interstellar Dust Cloud" as potion ingredients.

However, this was not too difficult for Roger. Every once in a while, some demigods in the "Star Wanderers" race would die. Roger only needed to collect a portion of the star cores that met the criteria to help extraordinary individuals from other pathways jump to the "Judgment Star" pathway.

In contrast, the "Omniscient and Omnipotent Five Paths" can jump to Sequence 4 when it is promoted from Sequence 5, while the "Mysterious Three Paths" still needs to wait until Sequence 4 is promoted to Sequence 3 before it can jump to become the "Black Prophet".

Of course, Roger could also start training Beyonders through this pathway from Sequence 9, but there is a serious problem with that, in the potion recipes of "The Composer" and "The Leaker," there are two things that Roger has never heard of before and that seem to be products of interstellar space.

Until Roger finds those two things, cultivating extraordinary individuals through adjacent pathways remains the optimal solution for the time being.

Of course, once Roger becomes a Sequence 0, he will also have the opportunity to cultivate extraordinary individuals through the "Gift" method, but there are still many variables involved, and it is too early to say for sure.

In any case, Roger now has a way to cultivate demigods through the "Star of Judgment" pathway. Considering that the difficulty of jumping from Sequence 4 to Sequence 3 is much higher than that of jumping from Sequence 5 to Sequence 4, his focus in the early stages should still be on cultivating extraordinary beings through the "Omniscient and Omnipotent Five Paths".

"Ok."

Fors nodded. She knew Roger had his own ideas and plans for these things, and all she needed to do was cooperate.

"Let me tell you the third thing."

Roger looked at Fors and spoke.

"The third thing... I'd like to ask if there's anything that person can help us with?"

Fors paused for a moment, then continued:
"During this week, the messages I exchanged with 'Miss Justice' and 'Miss Judgment' were not successfully conveyed. They were all very concerned about whether that person had encountered any difficulties."

“Considering your relationship with Him, I would like to ask you this question.”

"This one……"

Roger thought for a moment:
“Deities occasionally encounter some troubles, but I don’t think they are a big problem.”

He paused, then continued:

"We'll only need to worry if the meeting tomorrow afternoon can't be held on time."

"Ok."

Fors nodded. She truly respected and loved this "Fool" from the bottom of her heart and did not want anything to happen to him.

"That's all for now. I'll leave the affairs of the Abraham family to you two."

Roger thought for a moment, then said:

“Fors, starting next week you’ll be going to Nicholson’s to collect an extra allowance. You’re doing the work of three people, we can’t let you suffer.”

Since founding the "Hercules School," Yale Nicholson has developed several profitable businesses with the support of Madison and other friends, many of which involve the supernatural realm. Coupled with some clandestine sponsorships, the "Hercules School" is not short of money at present.

"No, I..."

Fors instinctively wanted to refuse, but Roger shook his head:
"Don't be stingy with money. It's not my money you're spending. You'll need money for many things in the future, and I can't let you pay out of your own pocket to do things for me."

“I will talk to Nicholson about it; you don’t need to worry about compliance.”

"Ok."

Fors nodded, and seeing Roger's firm attitude, she had no choice but to agree.

"You too, if you need anything, pray to me or send me a letter. I'm leaving now."

Roger smiled and patted Cecilia on the shoulder, saying...

"it is good."

Cecilia nodded, and then the two girls watched Roger disappear into the blue light.

Not long after Roger returned to the "Star Lord", he suddenly heard a series of calls.

"This……"

Roger was slightly taken aback, and he also felt nervous.

This is the contact information for "Source Castle"!

"I wonder if it's Klein's or Amon's voice..."

Roger took a deep breath, entered a state of focus, and began to receive the connection above the gray fog.

"Mr. 'Wheel of Fortune'"

From within the gray fog, the figure of "The Fool" Klein emerged.

"I fell into a deep sleep for a few days because of some things."

“There are several messages from other members of the ‘Tarot Club’ that contacted you. I’m showing them to you now, and I hope they haven’t delayed you.”

"If you need help, pray to me."

After that came two or three messages that Roger hadn't received, most of which were no longer relevant.

Judging from Klein's attitude, he was clearly a little embarrassed, because it seemed to be the first time Mr. Fool had messed up, and he obviously had no experience in dealing with this kind of thing.

Fortunately, he managed to stay calm, at least in his tone.

Roger breathed a slight sigh of relief. It seemed that Klein had used his intelligence and successfully escaped from Amon's clutches.

If he wasn't mistaken, Klein most likely returned to the Source Castle with the help of the "Goddess of the Night" and by using up the "Miracle Master's" resurrection chances in advance, thus escaping Amon's "cat and mouse game".

And if nothing unexpected happens, Klein should have successfully digested the "Ancient Scholar" potion.

After all, Chernobyl is far too shocking for a time traveler. If Roger put himself in that situation, he would probably have melted in his mouth too.

"Don't mind me, I praise you, Mr. Fool."

"I hope you are doing well. If there is anything I can do for you, please let me know."

Roger began to speak, his tone full of sincerity.

At this moment, the other members of the "Tarot Club" also received messages from Mr. "Fool," and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

They all wished Mr. Fool good health and indicated that their own affairs had not been greatly affected.

On the other hand, they also knew that the reappearance of Mr. Fool should mean that tomorrow's "Tarot Meeting" could proceed as scheduled.

"By the way, if that's the case, then Amon should be back too?"

Roger thought about it and figured that Amon was in a bad state right now, so it was best not to provoke him.

You can go on Monday morning, giving that "time angel" some time to process herself.

"By the way, shouldn't we bring Him a gift?"

Roger had thought of many words to comfort Him, but in the end he felt that, given Amon's personality, no amount of comfort would be as good as bringing Him something "interesting".

With this in mind, Roger immediately went to the Gear Church and found the bishop of the Church of the "God of Steam and Machinery," York Weeks.

Weeks was very excited to see Roger arrive:
"Your Excellency Abraham, is there new oil?"

"It will take two more days. This batch has 3000 barrels, which will definitely satisfy you."

Roger answered, then asked curiously:

"Judging from your appearance, you've made new progress in petroleum research?"

"of course."

York Weeks nodded:
"As far as I know, several archbishops of the Steam Church have been working overtime these past few days to develop products. They have not only refined several types of fuel and started designing corresponding internal combustion engines, but also synthesized several different specifications of 'plastics' according to Emperor Roselle's ideas."

"They have already produced some small items, such as handicrafts and small toys."

"The only pity is that the current amount of oil is still too small. If you can provide 3000 barrels of oil next time, we hope to commercialize the oil products this year."

The bishop patted his chest, looking very excited.

"That's great, thank you for your hard work."

Roger nodded, then added:
"Could I have one of those plastic items? I want to give it to a friend."

"can."

York Weeks nodded:
"I happen to have a plastic airship model here. You can take it if you don't mind."

"Let me see, thank you."

Roger nodded, and then the two went to the workshop of the Gear Church, where they saw the plastic airship that Weeks had mentioned.

"Wow, it even has color, not bad."

It was a scaled-down model of the Rune airship. Although it wasn't very big, it had all the colors and markings. While it didn't look as good as the toys from the old days, it was still quite convincing.

"This is one of the first batch of prototype small items. Please take it if you don't mind."

York Weeks is very generous:
"If your friend is male, this thing is absolutely incredibly tempting, it's... well, it's..."

"A man's deceleration device?"

Roger spoke with a smile.

"Yes, your analogy is very apt!"

York Weeks slapped his thigh:
"A man's decelerator!"

"After all, how many men wouldn't like an airship?"

"You're right."

Roger nodded. He also thought it would be very suitable to give this to Amon. This guy had definitely never seen a plastic toy before, and giving him something like this would definitely make this "brat" feel much better.

"Then thank you very much."

Roger nodded slightly, and then York Weeks found a box, wrapped the airship model in it, and tied a bow on the outside.

After thanking Weeks again, Roger arranged the next delivery process with him, and then left the Gear Church once more and returned to the Star Lord.

Time quickly came to 10 a.m. on Monday. Roger estimated that the "Everything You Need" bookstore should have already opened, so he used the "Traveler's" "teleportation" ability to arrive at Port Laus.

Sure enough, Amon was cleaning the bookstore, and Roger noticed that his expression was not so good compared to before.

"Boss."

Roger smiled and spoke.

"what?"

Amon turned his head and glared at him irritably, then continued wiping the bookshelf.

"I'll help you."

Roger, being quite perceptive, put on a pair of gloves and began wiping the bookshelf with Amon.

At first, neither of them spoke, but after a while, Roger finally found an opportunity to chat with Amon.

Although Amon still didn't answer questions properly and mainly just teased and joked with Roger, the latter still gleaned a lot of information.

As he had predicted, Amon not only helped Klein fully digest the "Ancient Scholar" potion, but also enabled Klein to escape successfully afterward.

This finally gave Roger an opportunity to comfort Amon:
"Boss, don't worry about it. Victory and defeat are common in war. Adjust your mindset and fight again next time."

"Oh, by the way, I brought you a little gift this time, something you've never seen before."

"what gift?"

Upon hearing Roger's words, Amon's expression changed from annoyance to confusion, and he spoke with some interest.

Roger had given him alien nuts once before. At first, Amon was a little wary, but after he tried them, he was surprised to find that they tasted pretty good.

As the King of Angels who has lived for thousands of years, there are very few things that can interest Amon. Only things that are novel, fresh, or rare on Earth can attract his attention.

"You'll know when you see it."

Roger smiled and took out the gift box he had prepared for Amon from the "Old Box".

"This is……"

Amon looked at the large red bow with some curiosity.

"Take it apart."

Roger said with a smile.

“…” Amon paused, glanced at Roger, and after confirming that the other’s expression was normal, he started to dismantle it.

As the lid of the box was opened, a model of an airship appeared before Amon's eyes.

"An airship? It's so small?"

Amon's gaze was immediately drawn to it. His first thought was that the thing was made of wood, but after he picked it up and held it in his hands, he realized that it was much lighter than wood.

Because He was too focused, He did not use His supernatural abilities to analyze the nature of the airship for a moment.

"This is a 'plastic' product, a model I made using a new material I discovered in another world."

Roger began:

"This material is more malleable than any material currently known, and it also has many other properties such as being waterproof, easy to clean, lightweight, and insulating."

"The plastic product hasn't entered the market yet; you're the first person to receive it."

"..."

Amon played with the plastic airship with great curiosity for a while, looking somewhat like a primary school student seeing a computer game for the first time.

"very funny."

After a long time, He adjusted his monocle and gave this assessment.

Roger breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this, realizing that Amon must really like the gift he had given him.

After a while, Amon opened the glass cabinet behind the airship and placed it in the most conspicuous position, a gesture that had a hint of showing off.

"What you want is on the table, go get it yourself."

He pointed to a box on the table beside him and said:
"Thank you."

Roger nodded, then quickly stepped forward and opened the box.

The box contained eight different glass bottles, each containing a unique property from Sequence 9 to Sequence 3, and a piece of white chocolate that whetted Roger's appetite.

This was not just ordinary appetite, but a gathering impulse, and Roger understood that the extraordinary characteristic of the "Insightful One" lay within it.

"Boss, can you help me get promoted now?"

Roger looked at Amon and asked.

"can."

Amon nodded:

"You'd better hurry while I'm in a good mood."

"Thank you."

Roger nodded, quickly took out the jar of white chocolate, and walked over to Amon.

"Open your mouth wide."

Amon glanced at Roger and took out the white chocolate.

"what."

Roger's mouth dropped open.

"Not big enough, make it bigger, unleash your imagination, 'Rose Bishop'."

Amon shook his head; the white chocolate in his hand was too big to be stuffed directly into Roger's mouth.

Upon hearing this, Roger immediately dislocated his jaw, transforming himself into a terrifying, python-like form, and then looked at Amon.

"That's pretty much it."

Amon nodded and shoved the white chocolate into Roger's mouth.

"Well!"

Roger only felt a hard, cloyingly sweet sensation, but fortunately, his mouth was open wide enough, which allowed him to swallow the white chocolate without much difficulty.

This time was different from every previous promotion. Roger felt that his whole body was undergoing some kind of violent change. Not only did he have a splitting headache, but even the virtual personalities he had created earlier began to show obvious signs of tearing apart.

A powerful force began to emerge throughout his body; dragon scales even began to appear on his body, and his head began to show dragon-like features.

Moreover, the boundary between reality and illusion in Roger's vision quickly became blurred. He even heard an endless roar of voices in his ears, as if the collective unconscious murmurs of the entire Northern Continent existed in his mind.

These delusions, along with the "anchors" formed by those who believe in Roger or are passionate about his music, pull against each other. Although the forces on both sides are generally balanced, the whole process is extremely agonizing.

This was an unusual situation that had never occurred before when he was promoted. For a moment, Roger felt that he was about to lose control.

Somewhere in the astral plane.

Adam the Dreamer suddenly frowned, and with a light step of his left foot, an endless sea appeared beneath his feet.

What should have been a relatively calm sea of ​​collective unconsciousness is now erupting with giant waves, which are rapidly expanding and will soon become a towering tsunami!
And at the very top of that ocean of collective unconsciousness, a faint rust-colored star appeared.

The star seemed to be located at the intersection of the astral realm and the spiritual realm. Although it was extremely far from the sea level, it seemed to be able to stir up a violent turmoil in the ocean of collective unconsciousness, as if to awaken all sleeping minds and memories.

If this trend continues, it will definitely lead to catastrophic consequences.

"Roger Abraham..."

Adam said softly.

The next second, the phantom of a church quickly appeared above the most turbulent sea and enveloped it.

The church was magnificent and imposing, with many dark pillars inside.

Every pillar, every arch, and every dome is inlaid with the bones of different races, densely packed together in a chaotic manner, staring at the center of the hall with empty eyes, like a silent jury.

Among them stands a cross hundreds of meters long, and on the walls, windows, and doors of the church, transparent and distorted faces are prominently displayed, as if countless souls are sealed inside.

Despite the eerie scene, it didn't appear sinister at all; instead, it was filled with a strange sense of holiness!

This is the "Church of Bones," and also the divine kingdom of Adam, the "Daydreamer"!

It briefly obscured the perception between the astral and spiritual realms, and also briefly blocked the power of the rust-colored stars.

Adam knew that this state wouldn't last long, so He used another "imagined" clone to begin soothing Roger's mental state.

In the "Everything You Need" bookstore in Port Laus, Amon also noticed something unusual about Roger.

Watching Roger switch between expressions of pain and peace, Amon glanced at him, then took out a feather duster and smacked Roger on the head.

"Snapped!"

The blow was powerful and heavy, leaving a red mark on Roger's head.

After Roger was struck, most of the abnormalities disappeared, and his mind became much clearer.

The only thing left is that some dragon scales on his arms have not faded, and it is unknown when they will completely disappear.

The sea of ​​collective unconsciousness shrouded by the "Church of Bones" quickly returned to calm, and Adam withdrew his methods after confirming that the crisis had been averted.

After a long period of adjustment, Roger finally felt that he was fine.

"Huff, huff, huff..."

He took several deep breaths before looking at Amon:

"Thank you, boss. I've been promoted."

At this moment, Roger was extremely excited.

After so much effort and all sorts of dangers and hardships, Roger Abraham has finally become an angel on earth today!

This is a memorable moment. Nearly 1500 years later, the Abraham family has once again given birth to a new earthly angel, becoming an angel family!

Although Roger is not an angel of the "Apprentice" path, the significance of this is still extraordinary.

This signifies that the Abraham family has finally seen the dawn of revival. As long as Roger remains a pillar, the Abraham family will have the opportunity to give birth to new angels.

Roger felt his connection with the tributary of the "Chaos Sea" deepen further. Moreover, he gained many new abilities, including "self-suggestion," "insight," "dream labyrinth," and "dragon transformation," among others.

Roger immediately realized that the abilities of "self-suggestion" and "insight" could combine with the abilities of "darkness obliteration," "premonition of hidden clues," and "revealing mysteries" to create new fusion abilities.

To give a simple example, Roger can now use "Mystic Presentation" to recreate the Void of Boötes or the "Abyss," projecting it directly into his opponent's mind, creating a dream labyrinth from which they can never escape, or instantly driving them mad or corrupting them.

In addition, with the power of "Dark Annihilation", the mutual restraint between "Insight" and the "Hidden" authorities of the same sequence will completely become one-sided. Roger is even able to penetrate the "Hidden" of the Sequence 1 level and easily perceive the deepest fear in the heart of his angel-level opponents.

Then he can directly use "Dark Annihilation" to expose this fear in the deepest part of the other person's unconscious, causing the other person to lose control instantly without knowing what happened.

In addition, Roger can now create clones similar to those Nast previously created, possessing complete "self-suggestion" abilities, except that his clones can exist for longer and are more powerful.

The only problem was that Roger needed to find a "sacred moment" when he never doubted himself, and use it as an anchor to drive a very high level of psychological suggestion.

With the combined power of the two source substances, this completely idealistic force may even be able to contend with or severely injure the King of Angels in a short period of time!

"Oh."

Unlike Roger's excitement, Amon remained calm and simply nodded.

"Speaking of which, Adam must have made a move just now."

"I feel it now."

Roger nodded, and then thanked the "dreamer" for his help.

After thinking for a moment, Amon added:
"Let me tell you, after becoming an 'insightful one,' your self-suggestion ability will be enhanced to an unprecedented degree. If it were an ordinary person, it would be fine, but you still need to be especially careful not to think about the image and symbol of the external god in your body, and not to adopt His perspective."

"This will rapidly increase your similarity to Him. You can refer to what the Sun God of the Third Age did, who used the 'Dark Angel' Sasriel as a barrier to isolate himself from direct contact with the 'Chaos Sea'. You can also use your ability to create virtual personalities to do something similar."

"I understand, I've done something similar before."

Roger nodded:

“When I was in the Southern Continent, I used two clones with different virtual personalities to sever my direct contact with the ‘Mother Tree of Desire’ statue. The principle behind that should be similar to what you described.”

"As long as you understand."

Amon nodded:

"Now that you've become an angel, when are you going to help me capture the Outer God angels?"

He crossed his arms and looked at Roger like a creditor demanding payment.

Roger had promised to help Amon obtain an extraordinary attribute from an Outer God angel a long time ago, but he hadn't been able to fulfill his promise for various reasons.

Even the extraordinary properties of the "Radiant Angel" item he acquired couldn't complete the transaction, so capturing the "Old Servant" must be put on the agenda now, no matter what.

This is extremely important for both sides, not only because it concerns Roger becoming a dual-path Sequence 2 with power comparable to the King of Angels, but also because it relates to some of Adam and Amon's subsequent plans.

"Just in the recent period of time."

Roger nodded slightly, and then said:

"I'll retrieve 'Grossell's Travelogue' while I'm at it, but before that, I need to get Zarathustra to drop the equipment first."

"Get equipment?"

Amon adjusted his monocle and looked at Roger with a strange expression:
"Calling extraordinary features 'equipment'—is this a culture from the old days, or from the stars?"

"The old days."

Roger shrugged:

"But if you ask Adam, he probably wouldn't know; that's from later popular culture."

"Oh."

Amon adjusted his monocle, seemingly quite interested in things from the past:
"That plastic airship you just gave me, was it also made based on the culture of that time?"

"That's not it."

Roger shook his head:

"At that time, although there were many plastic models, airships were already very rare. More common were bird-like flying machines with two wings."

"interesting."

Ammon was in high spirits; he no longer looked as bored as before.
“I’ve seen similar designs in Russell’s manuscripts, but at the time I just thought they might be some kind of artistic imagination.”

"I'll let it go this time, but next time you can bring me a model of the bird-shaped flying machine you mentioned."

"no problem."

Roger readily agreed.

He felt that perhaps because Amon had been with him for so long, the "angel of time" was gradually revealing more of his humanity than before.

In any case, this is a good thing.

"I will not get involved in your conflict with Zarathustra."

Amon shook his head:

"Just like you're not involved in what's between me and Klein Moretti, but I have to make it clear to you, Zarathustra has His own autonomy, which includes helping me hunt down Klein Moretti."

"Of course, this spontaneous behavior has nothing to do with me; it makes no difference whether I have Him or not."

"Just like you said, some people are meant to be at the dinner table, and some are meant to be on the menu. If you have the ability to stop Zarathustra, that's your skill."

"Thank you, boss."

Roger expressed his gratitude, knowing that Amon's special message stemmed from his own lack of involvement in His and Klein's issues.

Normally, Amon would be happy to see Zarathustra help him capture Klein, but now that Roger is a factor that can affect the whole situation, and that Zarathustra might defect to the Outer Gods, Amon's attitude towards Him has changed from ambiguous to clear.

Just as Roger didn't interfere in the struggle between Amon and Klein, Amon didn't want to disrupt Roger's pace. From any perspective, Roger had to obtain the "Miracle Master" extraordinary trait, otherwise he would likely die in the starry sky.

Roger's previous ability to escape death before the Outer Gods was largely due to the unexpected underhanded tactic of "The Pilgrimage of Groselle." But now, having learned from that experience, it won't be so easy next time.

Amon was very curious: under such circumstances, what methods did Roger intend to use to retrieve "The Travels of Grossell"?
"That's settled then, I'm leaving, boss."

The two chatted for a while longer. Roger stood up, took the remaining extraordinary traits with him, and then used the "Traveler" trait to return to the captain's cabin of the "Star Lord".

Since the return of the "Ghost Empire," Lindsay has taken over from Diego and personally trained the Koske army, so he has not remained in the fleet.

It must be said that the Kesk people are natural "hunters" and are more obedient than the people of the North Continent.

They quickly adapted to Lindsay's training rhythm, which made Lindsay very happy.

Lindsay also asked Roger for an advance on funds to train extraordinary individuals, which Roger generously approved, further motivating Lindsay.

Lindsay needs to build his own army and complete his promotion ceremony, while Roger is also very willing to spend money on developing his own armed forces.

After putting away the extraordinary properties, Roger had a meal, familiarized himself with the various abilities of "Insight", and explored the possibility of merging its power with that of "Black Prophet".

As 3 o'clock approached, Bandit got up, meowed, and left the captain's cabin.

"Good cat."

Roger couldn't help but praise him, and Bandit flicked its tail in response.

When the time came to three o'clock, Roger's body erupted with rust-colored light, and he once again appeared in the gray mist space above the "Source Castle", becoming Mr. "Wheel of Fate".

Good afternoon, Mr. Fool.

Audrey's greeting, "Justice!" rang out.

Upon hearing this, all eight pairs of eyes in the Tarot Club, except for Mr. World, turned to Mr. Fool.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Fool."

Everyone spoke in turn, saying that the disappearance of Mr. Fool had put them under a lot of pressure, but seeing him reappear now, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Mr. Fool nodded slightly in greeting.

At this moment, Klein was also slightly moved. His previous experience in the "Forsaken Land" was truly a near-death experience. Fortunately, he had finally escaped, which made him feel very gratified.

On the other hand, the shock he felt from witnessing Chernobyl firsthand had not completely subsided.

At this moment, Klein had a greater understanding of the world situation and the matter of time travel itself. He glanced at Roger, the "Wheel of Fate," without leaving a trace, and pondered many things.

At this very moment, Klein was seriously considering the possibility of self-destructing "The World" Gehrman's disguise to Roger, because he was currently being hunted by "The Mysterious Servant" Zarathustra, and it would be quite difficult for him to deal with that archangel on his own.

He knew that Roger originally had a plan to deal with Zarathustra, so from that perspective, the two were a perfect match.

After the other members of the "Tarot Club" had greeted each other, "The Fool" Klein looked at "The Hermit" Cattleya and asked:
"Are you ready for your next question?"

The Hermit, Cattleya, still had two questions for Mr. Fool to ask, but she was prepared for them now:
“Dear Mr. Fool, I am ready.”

"My first question is, could you please tell me if there is any commonality between 'Vampire Progenitor' Lilith and 'Demon King' Fabuti, beyond any extraordinary attributes?"
