Mystery: The Last Shepherd

Chapter 369 [Justice] Miss is not buying anymore
[Justice] Because of Cons, Audrey had no interest in collecting Russell's diary. And the Hanged Man and the others didn't seem to need anything in particular, so surprisingly, no one presented Russell's diary to Mr. Fool at today's tarot gathering.

Everyone, you need to work harder!
Klein muttered to himself, but his face remained calm as he said, "You may begin."

Lu Ze was waiting for these words. He looked directly at the towering [Sun] and asked, "Have you asked your chief?"

"I've already asked."

[The Sun] Derrick answered honestly.

What are his conditions?

"What the chief most wants to obtain is a way to change the current situation of our Silver City."

"The Sun," Derrick recalled the scene, "but he was willing to exchange it for items of the same level, or other Sequence 4 potion recipes."

Okay
After hearing this, Lu Ze breathed a sigh of relief.

The "Abyss" card he had just acquired contained all the sequence potion recipes for the entire path, with Sequence 4 being a given. As for extraordinary items of the same level, he had Amon's portrait, which should be sufficient.

However, Amon's portrait is an item, unlike a recipe which can be kept after being shared, so he still prioritizes the recipe.

"Mr. Sun, when you get back, tell your chief that I can provide the Sequence 4 of the 'Demon' pathway—the 'Devil' potion recipe."

Lu Zedao.

"So that's what Sequence 4 of the Demonic Path is called."

The upside-down man stood to the side, silently writing down this information.

He couldn't help but marvel at how soothingly Temperance could offer something of such high value. That was a Sequence 4 potion recipe; if it were publicly sold, it could easily fetch a high price!

When did Lu Ze get his hands on this kind of thing?
Klein thought the same thing to himself.

I can understand having a recipe for a "Desire Apostle," since he's already herded one, but where did he get the Sequence 4 potion recipe? Did he capture another Sequence 4 "devil"?
No matter how you look at it, it's impossible.
"Okay, okay."

[Sun] Derrick was taken aback by Luzer's decisive offer and hurriedly nodded, "I'll go back and find the chief."

"That's good."

Lu Ze nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the mysterious ruler hidden behind the gray mist at the head of the bronze table, "Respected Fool, may I ask you to witness our exchange of formulas?"

He was worried that the recipe he had received was fake, because he dared not fully trust a chief he had never met and who was far away in the land of the forsaken. Having Mr. Fool as a witness would undoubtedly provide an extra layer of insurance.

When Luze looked at the Fool, his eyes involuntarily glanced at the table in front of him. Not for any other reason than that the Fool also had a card beside him. Judging from its shape, the card seemed very similar to the "Abyss" card he had obtained.

Mr. Fool also has a "blasphemy card" from Russell!
Actually, this card had existed before, but he didn't know what it was at the time. It wasn't until he acquired it recently that he realized how high the status of Mr. Fool's collection was.

I'm just not sure which route it came from.

That Lu Ze guy is giving me trouble again.
Klein ignored Luzer's gaze and maintained his superior demeanor, nodding slightly and saying, "Alright."

Using the mystery of the gray fog for divination should be able to determine the authenticity of the formula, right?
“Thank you very much.” Lu Ze bowed slightly to the great being, then looked at the Hanged Man.

"Is that extraordinary item for the 'judge' finished?"

"finished."

Alger nodded and said, “The craftsman’s suggested price is 4500 pounds, and his labor fee is 400 pounds. My payment is one-eighth of the final price.”

After obtaining the Fool's consent, he quickly materialized the object's form—a black gavel with gold borders at both ends. "This object can issue 'bans,' one at a time, and can subject those struck to punishments such as exile, imprisonment, or death. Furthermore, the person who wields it will become incredibly majestic, instilling instinctive fear in others."

"Its side effect is that it can make people extremely indifferent, only caring about the rules and losing their humanity. If held for a long time, it can easily veer towards going out of control."

It's powerful and the side effects are tolerable!

"The Magician," Fors exclaimed in admiration, but was also taken aback by its exorbitant price. She instinctively looked at "Justice," waiting for him to speak, asking if she wanted to keep the item.

[Justice] The lady is so wealthy, she should buy it without hesitation, right?
"I don't need it at the moment."

However, to her surprise, the other party did not buy it.

".I see."

Alger, the Hanged Man, was also somewhat surprised. He had thought that this item was powerful and its side effects were relatively controllable, making it very suitable for Justice. However, the other party did not buy it.

In reality, Audrey, the "Justice," had her own considerations. She was about to have her coming-of-age ceremony and enter social circles. Before that, her father, Earl Hall, would gradually transfer ownership of the property nominally belonging to her. At this crucial juncture, large-scale cash flows could easily lead to misunderstandings.

Another reason was that Audrey's fervor for the extraordinary and the mystical world had somewhat diminished after the death of her friend Cons. She began to truly realize that this was an extremely dangerous journey—not just talk, but one that could actually kill!

The two things together made her a little more cautious.

"Is there anyone else who wants it?"

Lu Ze scanned the crowd.

It was quiet.

Unfortunately, among the people present, apart from [Justice] and himself, they were basically all poor, only able to drool over the good stuff but unable to afford much money.

"Then I'll stay with you for now."

Luze thought for a moment and said to Alger the Hanged Man, "You find a buyer, you sell it, and then give me the money. If this item is sold, I don't care how much you made or how much you deducted. In the end, I'll give you 3500 pounds. If you make more, that's your own skill. I only care about the result."

"can."

"The Hanged Man," Alger nodded, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes.

In other words, if he has the ability to sell it for over 4000, Temperance won't care; he'll just give him 3500 pounds.
His mind started racing, trying to figure out how to sell the item for a high price.
