Dimension Demon's Chat Group

Chapter 579 So what is the price?
Backlund, at the Earl of Hall's mansion.

Audrey Hall, who had long been asleep, suddenly opened her eyes, her spirit as if awakened, and appeared in a thick and vast mysterious gray fog.

Above the gray fog, there was a lofty and majestic figure, seemingly above everything, looking down at its own insignificance below.

...Is it Mr. Fool?!

Audrey was immediately jolted awake and quickly said respectfully, "Mr. Fool!"

The figure nodded slightly and said softly, "I can now answer your question from last night—it was a 'Blasphemy Card' made by Roselle!"

"..."

Audrey paused for a moment, then remembered that she had prayed to Mr. Fool before going to sleep, asking what the bookmark that had triggered the battle between high-sequence extraordinary beings was.

However, the card of blasphemy?
That was a card of blasphemy?!

She had always known that Emperor Roselle had created a secret deck of cards, and she had also heard the Hanged Man say that the secret hidden in that deck of cards was the path to Godhood, the path to godhood!

It turns out it's called the Blasphemy Tablet, a name similar to the Blasphemy Slab...

This is absolutely the most top-tier treasure in the mysterious world!
Thinking of this, Audrey was both excited and proud, thinking that their Tarot Club actually possessed a blasphemous card, and that they had obtained it with her help!

"Who would have thought that the daughter of the Earl of Hall would be such a deep participant in today's extraordinary events!"

"If I hadn't joined the Tarot Club, I probably would never have known such truth in my life?"

Audrey thought excitedly to herself.

Just then, the tall figure overlooking the gray fog chuckled:
"The mission is complete. What kind of reward would you like?"

Money, knowledge, or extraordinary items?

award?

Audrey snapped out of her daze and looked at Mr. Fool with delight.

It seems that Mr. Fool was quite satisfied with what happened today.

He actually changed his usual style and offered such a generous reward!
"Then we'll have to think about it carefully..."

Audrey blinked and fell into thought.

As for money, she still has a lot of pocket money, so she's not short of cash for the time being.

As for knowledge, limited by my cognition, I can't think of anything I want to know for the time being, unless it's the blasphemous card that Mr. Fool just got.

However, directly inquiring about the contents of the blasphemous card would be somewhat presumptuous and certainly goes beyond the value of the action.

As for extraordinary items, she did want them, but it was said that every extraordinary item contained side effects and could easily expose her identity as an extraordinary being...

After a moment of contemplation, Audrey finally made her decision.

"Dear Mr. Fool, I desire an extraordinary item, preferably one that can enhance my strength at a relatively low cost, and one that is difficult for other extraordinary individuals to detect!"

Wow, they've got quite a few requirements!
The 'Substitute Fool' above the gray fog twitched at the corner of his mouth.

But since he had already spoken, he couldn't go back on his word at this point and damage the image of the fool.

"Then let's just make one out temporarily!"

Thinking of this, he flipped his right hand and took out the Sequence 6 zombie trait he had hunted that day.

In an instant, a vast divine sense surged into this extraordinary aggregate of characteristics, separating a portion of it and kneading it into the shape of a blue brooch.

"This item is called Blue... cough, Ice Crystal Brooch, and it is an extraordinary item from the Prisoner's Path."

"After wearing the brooch, one can use supernatural powers of cold to lower the temperature, condense ice and snow, and freeze enemies."

"Furthermore, if you manipulate it properly, you can make the water vapor in the air condense into snowflakes, and use the refraction of the ice crystals to enhance your abilities in hypnosis and psychological suggestion!"

Oh?
Audrey's eyes lit up, and she immediately bowed, both surprised and delighted, saying, "Thank you for your generous gift, Mr. Fool. I will make good use of this extraordinary item!"

"very good!"

Lin Yu nodded in satisfaction and casually handed the brooch to Audrey.

In an instant, the surrounding gray fog seemed to turn cold.

Audrey was slightly taken aback, then looked surprised, wondering why there was no summoning or sacrificial ritual this time, and it was delivered directly into her hands.
After a moment's thought, a feeling of surprise and delight welled up within her.

Could it be... that Mr. Fool's power has been revived?

That's wonderful!

Thinking of this, Audrey gladly accepted the brooch, and then bowed respectfully, saying:
"So what's the price?"

cost?

Lin Yu was slightly taken aback, then slapped his forehead in annoyance.

Oh no, I forgot about that!
Most extraordinary items have side effects, but he used the art of weapon crafting to refine that part of the living corpse's characteristics into an ice-attribute magic weapon.

What side effects do ritual implements have?

Thinking of this, Lin Yu felt a headache coming on, but he could only steel himself and say in a deep voice:
"Wearing this brooch will lower the temperature around you."

That's it!

Audrey nodded and continued to listen attentively.

But she waited a long time and still didn't receive any further explanation.

"……Then what?"

She looked up in confusion at Mr. Fool.

After a moment of silence, the other person managed to say, "Take care to keep warm."

Is this over?

Audrey stared blankly at Mr. Fool.

She did want an extraordinary item with a relatively low cost, but this cost... was a bit too low!

"You don't like it?"

Mr. Fool preemptively said softly, "If you don't like it, you can choose another one." Audrey quickly replied, "No, this is it!"

After speaking, she lifted her skirt slightly, bowed respectfully, and then happily put away the brooch. After Lin Yu broke off the connection, she disappeared into the gray mist.

Once Miss Justice's figure had completely disappeared, Lin Yu breathed a long sigh of relief.

"I never expected this job to be even more difficult than I imagined!"

"If Xiao Ke were a little stronger, I wouldn't have had to work so hard to act..."

Thinking of this, Lin Yu raised his eyebrows and said, "No, I should say, it's fortunate that I was the one who responded tonight. If it had been that guy, he definitely wouldn't have been able to fulfill Miss Justice's wish!"

"Judging from this, I'm still pretty qualified~"

Lin Yu stretched and nodded in satisfaction, without considering that Klein would never make a promise beyond his capabilities.

However, thanks to him, after tonight, the Tarot Club will have another legend about Mr. Fool...

……

……

The next morning, Lin Yu got up from the fluffy yet supportive cloud bed and looked around at the vast starry sky-like scenery with great enthusiasm.

"Crack~"

He snapped his fingers, and ripples of silver light quickly covered the entire bedroom, turning the once dreamlike bedroom back into its previous simple appearance.

"The Second Day of Substitute Fool's Job!"

Where should we go for a stroll today?

Lin Yu walked out of the bedroom in his pajamas, casually reached out with his right hand, and tore through space to retrieve the letter that had just been sent that morning from the mailbox outside the door.

"Let me see, Great Detective Isengard, the clues to the Demon Killer..."

"Is that the Haki?"

"Looks like the police haven't uncovered the truth yet. Too bad, I've already taken care of it. Next!"

Lin Yu flipped through the letters with great interest.

He paused slightly, his eyes fixed intently on the latest letter.

"This was... sent from the Brave Ones Bar?"

If Lin Yu remembered correctly, Klein had already dealt with Miss Sharon before joining the chat group.

That completely black eye was the spoils he obtained by killing Rosago with Miss Sharon's help.

"Sharon was originally a member of the Temperance faction of the Rose School. Because she opposed the hedonistic ideas, she and Marich defected. She met Klein in Backlund and formed a long-term cooperative relationship with him."

"According to the plot, the hedonists are still hunting Sharon."

"Could it be that the group of unlucky guys I ran into last night are the pursuers this time?"

What a coincidence!
Lin Yu looked with interest at the letter that appeared to be from Marich, guessing that the sender might have discovered the matter and intended to ask the famous detective Klein to help investigate.

"Interesting... Let's go meet them!"

Lin Yu casually tossed all the letters in his hand onto the desk in the bedroom, then strode towards the door of the living room.

As he walked, a rich silver light flowed over his body like water, gradually transforming his pajamas into an overcoat.

About three minutes later, Lin Yu, dressed in a black trench coat, appeared at the entrance of the Brave Ones Bar.

Before even entering the bar, he suddenly stopped, glancing out of the corner of his eye at the dark alleyway outside.

A brown carriage slowly approached from the alleyway entrance, and through the half-open window was a pale face with a hint of madness.

Marich, a member of the Temperance faction of the Rose School, is currently a Sequence 6 undead.

Lin Yu's lips curled slightly, and he immediately turned around and walked towards the carriage.

At the same time, the brown carriage stopped in the shadows of the alley. Maric, who was controlling the zombies, waved to Lin Yu, signaling him to get in and talk.

Lin Yu didn't stand on ceremony and immediately lifted the car curtain, sitting opposite Marich.

"looking for me?"

"..."

Marich glanced at the young man in the trench coat in front of him with some surprise.

Based on his understanding of Klein, the other party shouldn't be so reckless, but this guy actually stepped onto the carriage of two high-sequence extraordinary beings without hesitation, as if he wasn't worried about his personal safety at all.

Just as he was thinking this, a figure suddenly appeared beside him.

She had pale blonde hair and jewel-like blue eyes, wore an elaborate black court dress, and a small, soft black hat. She was none other than Miss Sharon, who had once joined forces with Klein to fight against the enemy!

"We originally belonged to a rather ancient and secretive organization."

Miss Sharon began slowly, and without caring whether the other party wanted to know this information, she calmly recounted her origins.

Lin Yu already knew their background, but he still pretended to be all ears.

Only after Miss Sharon revealed their defection did Lin Yu feign a frown and say:

"So, you're being hunted down by the Hedonists and are planning to seek my help?"

"..."

Miss Sharon and Marich looked at each other in bewilderment.

The latter shook his head and said with a strange expression, "Last night, the pursuers from the Hedonistic Faction arrived and were slaughtered by a high-sequence extraordinary being."

"When we arrived, all that was left at the scene was a pile of mutilated corpses without any extraordinary characteristics."

"We suspect that this may be an operation launched by a secret organization against the Rose School, and their targets may not be limited to the Hedonists."

"To be on the safe side, before we are attacked by that unknown powerful figure, we should take the initiative and gather as much information as possible about him, so as not to be caught in a double hunt..."
