Simultaneous Transmigration: Inheriting the Legacy of Myriad Worlds

Chapter 265 Tarot Club

The gray mist that Qin Sheng is currently in is essentially an appendage of the Source Material—the "Source Castle".

This is one of the most powerful source substances in the entire universe, belonging to the pillar-level ancient "Lord of Mysteries". Time, space, spirit world, destiny, etc. are all under His authority.

This person was also the culprit and mastermind behind Klein's "time travel" in the past, and coveted his body.

The Celestial Venerable is too wicked.

"Where else can I come into contact with the source matter so safely and harmlessly, except here?" Qin Sheng thought to himself.

The Tarot meeting itself was secondary; being able to experience the Source Castle up close made the trip worthwhile, which was Qin Sheng's primary objective.

However, the four of them were not standing inside the "Source Castle," but outside the gate, where they were considered gatekeepers.

Honey, I'll just rub against you, I won't go inside.

“…If you make a formal request, I can send you back right now,” Klein said in a deep voice.

To be honest, it's a bit tight.

"This has been a truly wondrous experience... Well, I've always longed for something like this. I mean, I love the mysterious, I love miracles that transcend nature. No, my point is, Your Excellency, how can I become an Extraordinary?"

The noblewoman Audrey was very excited, and even had some difficulty finding the words to express herself.

This is a well-protected girl who has never experienced any hardship since childhood. This is her first time encountering such a fantastical thing, and she is overwhelmed with emotion.

At this moment, the gray fog churned, and stone pillars shot into the sky, revealing a building that resembled a giant's palace.

In the middle of the group, a bronze table with ten seats on each side solidified, and Klein sat in the head seat.

Audrey and Alger...

The name is a bit complicated. Xiao Jie and Xiao Li happen to be to Klein's left and right, serving as his left and right protectors.

Qin Sheng glanced around and sat down at the far end of the long table, opposite the Fool.

I am one of the founders and a major shareholder of Tarot Club!

His actions caught the attention of Audrey and Alger; they thought he was incredibly bold.

Qin Sheng didn't think anything of it; the Fool hadn't said that he couldn't sit here.

The fool remained silent; he acquiesced.

Looking at Audrey, Qin Sheng, while sensing the aura of the Source Castle, spared a sliver of energy to say, "You want to become an Extraordinary?"

"Yes, I've always wanted to."

Audrey nodded like a chick pecking at rice; young girls always yearn for fantastical adventures.

Knights, princesses, pirates, dragons.

“I know that there are extraordinary beings within the Church of the Seven Gods, such as the Night Watchers, the Punishers, and the Mechanical Heart, but I don’t want to enter the extraordinary world through their channels. I don’t want to lose my freedom.”

In this mysterious world, there are seven righteous gods who founded churches, preached the faith, and protected their own sheep.

Every church has a team of extraordinary individuals who specialize in dealing with dangers lurking in the shadows.

Perhaps the Seven Gods have many flaws, and each of them has their own schemes, but their existence is indeed a good thing for ordinary people.

As for why the enigmatic Qin Sheng didn't choose this path before?
The church doesn't accept just anyone.

Extraordinary people and ordinary people live in two different worlds. Many clergy members in the church are skeptical of the mysterious existence, so it is conceivable that this path is not easy.

And as Audrey said, those who are extraordinary in the Church have no freedom and are also in great danger.

While rogue cultivators can escape danger, those from official extraordinary backgrounds must step up. Qin Sheng, a mysterious figure, also has a younger sister to take care of, so he cannot take risks.

“Sir, do you have a solution?” Audrey asked.

"Have."

Qin Sheng nodded. "To become an extraordinary being, you must possess the potion recipe and materials. You should already know this, so I don't need to elaborate."

“I understand this knowledge,” Audrey nodded.

I don't know! Tell me now! I command you to tell me!

Klein cried out in his heart, wanting Qin Sheng to tell him the whole story about the potion, but that didn't fit the persona of a mysterious being.

So he could only pretend to be profound and remain silent.

An incompetent illiterate.

"Which path do you want to become an Extraordinary?" Qin Sheng asked.

Audrey hesitated for a moment, "I don't know, I don't really know much about the mysterious world... I haven't become..."

Xiaoli stopped talking in time, secretly relieved that she had almost revealed that she was underage.

I can't let anyone else know that I'm still a child.

"There is no such thing as becoming extraordinary without paying a price. If you don't choose the church, then you can only look for other extraordinary organizations."

Another member, Alger, who had been observing the situation, spoke up at this moment to make his presence known.

"There will indeed be a price to pay." Qin Sheng nodded in agreement, and then continued:

“We can make a deal: I’ll give you what you want, and you do me a favor.”

"what do you want?"

“I want to get someone into Backlund University. She’s currently at Hoy University. I’m sure you, a lady of noble birth, can do it.”

Audrey was the daughter of a powerful noble family and was extremely favored; such a thing was within her capabilities.

Qin Sheng certainly had the ability to get Sophia into the Capital University, through methods such as hypnosis, coercion, and threats...

However, in order for my sister to live a normal life, it's best to go through the proper channels.

Audrey remained silent. A lady of noble birth?

I don't think I have an aristocratic accent, so how did I give myself away so quickly?
“I can give it a try,” Audrey said, not making any promises, trying to save face.

"After all, I don't have that much power."

"Very well, let's get back to your matter." Qin Sheng nodded.

“There are twenty-two sequence pathways in total. I can find any sequence 9 recipe you want for you.”

The fact that there are 22 paths is no secret; even Alger knew it.

What is truly hidden is that mortals can also become true gods through the sequence.

Most extraordinary beings are unaware that true gods were also extraordinary beings who ascended step by step by consuming magical potions.

This knowledge was controlled by the church and its dissemination was prohibited because it was considered blasphemous.

Alger was taken aback. "Sir, do you really possess the formulas for twenty-two Sequence 9 potions?"

Even gods wouldn't dare say such a thing. Who is this? More powerful than a true god?

The Church of the True God in the mysterious world only has one complete path and a few incomplete paths on the surface.

"No, I only know of a few types."

Alger breathed a sigh of relief, thinking he had met an important person, but it turned out he was just boasting.

Klein remained expressionless, but his mind was blank and filled with confusion.

A sequence? What's that?
22 paths? Are there any cultivators among them?

Qin Sheng continued, "But if I don't have the recipe this young lady wants, I can go and find it myself."

"Where are you going to look for it?" Audrey asked curiously.

"Hunting down followers of evil gods."

Freshly killed to order, absolutely fresh.

Three people: "..."

Klein felt a chill in his heart; it seemed he had dragged a dangerous person into the mess.

Alger remained silent. He was indeed an important person. He had been presumptuous.

Audrey was somewhat bewildered, not expecting that her choice would involve human lives.

"Sir, could you tell me about the Sequence 9 recipe you have?"

"can."

Qin Sheng: "For example, the warrior is one of the strongest ways to fight in the low sequence. They have superhuman strength and agility and can master various weapons and fighting techniques."

“This is the main lineage of the Church of War,” Alger reminded him. Could this person be a member of the Church of War?

It is quite possible that the people of the Church of the God of War are the most warlike, but as extraordinary individuals of the church, it is extremely disloyal of them to actively sell the formula of their own path!
“Warrior…” Audrey wasn’t very interested in this path.

Beautiful girls and warriors don't really go well together.

"This path may have unacceptable drawbacks for women; taking the Warrior's Potion will make them taller and stronger."

Audrey shook her head rapidly. "I don't want this."

The extraordinary person she envisions is dreamlike, mysterious, and elusive.

Instead of throwing punches and fighting with others.

The image of Audrey, a muscular woman, is terrifying.

“Then let’s take the ‘prisoner’ route,” Qin Sheng said again.

"The mind is a prisoner of the body, and the body is a prisoner of the world."

Audrey, puzzled but impressed, found the statement quite peculiar. "What abilities does this method possess?" she asked.

"Strong physique, keen intuition, with a silent exterior and a crazy mind, he is born with many criminal skills, such as picking locks with wire and digging tunnels with a ladle."

In the movie The Shawshank Redemption, the protagonist must have taken this route, but what was the protagonist's name again?

Klein, acting as a mysterious sculpture, had his thoughts wandering aimlessly, but his curiosity about the world of extraordinary beings had reached its peak.

Potions, sequences, aren't they amazing?
Audrey fell silent again, shaking her head even faster.

"No, no, I don't want this either."

Audrey could never become a criminal!

“It doesn’t matter, I still have the recipe for the ‘Sleepless’ pathway.”

Qin Sheng: "This is the main channel of the Church of the Goddess of Night, an official force, and can be trusted."

“I’ve heard of the Sleepless Ones. What abilities does this sequence have?” Audrey’s anticipation rekindled.

"They can see in the dark, only need three or four hours of sleep a day, and have abundant energy. Their strength, agility, and thinking abilities surpass those of ordinary people."

"If the sequence can be promoted, then it can develop to the point where you don't need to sleep."

Audrey thought it was kind of cool, but her family were believers in the goddess of night and always went to church to pray.

Therefore, Xiaoli was afraid that if she became a "sleepless person", she would be discovered by the Church of the Night.

"Sir, is there anything else?"

Audrey, you are so greedy.

"You don't want this, you don't want that, what do you really want?" Qin Sheng shook his head.

You monkey!

Klein mentally dubbed Qin Sheng's voice, feeling a mix of emotions and a strange sense of familiarity.

I never expected to see the "Bodhi Patriarch" preaching in another world. It's a pity the environment is wrong. This gentleman won't tap this noble lady on the head three times to hint that she should come to his room that night.

“I also have an ‘audience’ recipe, which is the starting point of a very dreamy, magical path.”

Qin Sheng: "Miss, this is my last treasure."

Audrey's eyes lit up. "Dreamy? Magical?"

Such a description strikes right at the heart of a young girl.

"Yes, among the twenty-two routes, the audience should be in the top three."

Each version has its own meta, and every version nerfs warriors.

audience?

This is the father of the version.

Sequence 1 of this sequence is called "Writer".

"The strength of an extraordinary person is not determined by the means they take, but by the extraordinary person themselves."

Alger offered a different perspective; he also had an audience formula, but it was a deal between Qin Sheng and Audrey, and he had no intention of interfering.

This place is too mysterious, so Xiao Jie decides to wait and see.

Qin Sheng did not argue with Alger regarding his statement.

This is a typical example of downward revision thinking.

You think this is the world of "Covering the Sky," where strength isn't determined by ancient scriptures, but by people?

Even in games, class balance is difficult to achieve, let alone in the real world.

If it's the same pathway and the same sequence, can your argument still hold water? But what about comparing different pathways?

The audience is the boss, and your grandpa will always be your grandpa!
"Sir, what abilities does the audience possess?" Audrey inquired.

"Possessing outstanding spirit and keen observation, one can examine the 'actors' in secular society like an observer, and glimpse their true thoughts from their expressions, behavior, verbal tics, and subtle actions."

"Based on this, subtly influence and guide things in the direction you want."

Qin Sheng: "It is obvious that this path does not have the ability to fight head-on when it reaches Sequence 9, but this often means that its future is very bright, such as being able to travel through dreams."

In addition, viewers can also experience mind reading, hypnosis, and the creation of personas...

Just by listening, you'll know that this can't be a legitimate approach.

Audrey was tempted, but she was still young at heart and didn't care about power.

"Insomniacs can reduce their sleep time... No, sleep is a gift from the goddess, and should not be given up."

Xiaoli thought to herself, "If I become a spectator, I can see what those adults are thinking at the banquet."

She quickly made her decision to become a spectator!
"Sir, how shall we complete the transaction?"

"Can you get the enrollment process sorted out in seven days?" Qin Sheng asked.

Audrey thought for a moment and then said confidently, "No problem."

She truly is a girl of noble birth...

Klein and Alger thought to themselves,
"She will arrive in Backlund on the eighth day, and then..."

Qin Sheng and Audrey finalized the handover process for this matter.

Klein listened with envy.

I still need to go through interviews and competitions before I can have a chance to enter Backlund University, but now there are two people engaging in bribery and corruption right in front of me, with no organization or discipline!

This is simply disrespectful to me.

The nobles are so corrupt and outrageous! How can the kingdom prosper with such scoundrels as you?

Miss, could you please introduce me, this mysterious figure, to Backlund University?

"I can give you the audience recipe right now."

Audrey's mouth opened slightly. "Sir, aren't you afraid I'll change my mind?"

"That's not something a well-mannered lady would do."

You're right, Audrey is a girl of her word.

Xiaoli was delighted by Qin Sheng's trust in her, feeling like an adult who had accomplished something remarkable.

"As for the authenticity of the formula, I believe there is no doubt about it under the witness of this mysterious being." Qin Sheng looked at the mysterious sculpted man.

Could Klein have fallen asleep?

Great evil god, come back to your senses! How can I bear witness for you?
All I know is how to talk about politics!

"Your Excellency, how should we address you?" Audrey asked politely.

My name is Zhou Mingrui, but this name clearly doesn't fit the style of a mysterious being.

Klein fell into deep thought, came to an answer, and said softly:
"The Fool."

Qin Sheng thought to himself at the same time:

Fool.
