Alger noticed Morion's gaze and immediately lowered his head to indicate that he understood.

He kept his head down, his pupils trembling.

Far beyond my expectations...

His biggest dream used to be to become an archbishop, a demigod of Sequence Four.

But now, with Mr. Tower's permission...

Perhaps, he can dream a little bigger.

If this is what Mr. Tower expected of him...

“It’s a sad feeling.”

He spoke in a trembling voice.

After saying that, Moraine reopened the Silver City textbook that Little Sun had brought, intending to memorize all the contents and take them back to share with Qiu Si.

He doesn't need to memorize everything; a quick glance is enough. Once he's connected to the network, he can easily retrieve everything he's seen from his subconscious.

The remaining three members continued their unfinished discussion about Zillingus.

After glancing at Morion, who had resumed reading, Audrey continued her discussion with Alger.

"We need more intelligence, focusing on Zillingus's hobbies and habits."

Alger, the "Hanged Man," forced himself to look away from the now-blank stone slab and said as he recalled:

"He really loves eating fish, especially ocean fish, which he eats raw, sliced. And..."

Audrey memorized all this information and, using her audience's abilities, sketched out and fleshed out the character named Zillingus in her mind, creating his character portrait.

"I hope it will be successful and that we can have a pleasant collaboration," she said with a gentle smile after listening quietly.

“It’s a pleasure working with you,” Alger responded, expressing his willingness to trust this “justice” lady who was so influential in Backlund.

The three then began discussing other topics.

Initially, the main discussion focused on Audrey and Alger, as Derrick, sealed in the Forsaken Land, was completely unaware of their conversation.

It was only after casual conversation that Qilingus possessed an extraordinary item called "Crawling Hunger" and learned about its effects that he suddenly reacted, directly exposing Qilingus's secrets and revealing the source of this extraordinary item.

Soon, the three of them began discussing various extraordinary creatures.

This brings us to Derrick's comfort zone.

Although Morion reminded them that the extraordinary creatures of the Forsaken Lands were likely quite different from those of the outside world, they still discussed it with great enthusiasm.

It's never a bad thing to know more.

What if they have something in common?

Klein, hidden behind the gray mist, watched the group below with a relaxed posture. He observed them occasionally glancing furtively at the "wordless book" behind Morion, listening to their conversation, from the events of Qilingus to the characteristics of various monsters.

Klein couldn't help but find it a little funny.

Old Mo has a rather wicked sense of humor; he managed to fool them like this with just a plain stone slab.

Unlike him, he...he...um...

Ok.

At that moment, Audrey suddenly realized a problem.

In previous transactions, her dealings with Morion mainly involved transferring money, so she could directly deposit into an anonymous account, allowing her and Morion to avoid any physical contact.

Although the bank is owned by her family, she won't actively investigate Mr. Tower's identity.

But this time, delivering the gift is different.

This transaction was a barter transaction.

She can't possibly deposit this in a bank.

“Mr. Tower,” Audrey gestured slightly, “how should I transfer the items we are trading to you?”

Klein also looked at Morion at the same time.

He wanted to ask that question too.

He wanted to take inspiration from Moraine's ideas.

“Oh, that’s easy,” Morion lifted his head from the book, smiled and nodded. “You can summon my messenger.”

“Hmm…” He thought for a moment, “However, this might expose your information to me, so if you mind, you can also pay someone else to summon it for you.”

“I don’t mind my messenger being exposed to others.”

He originally wanted to help Klein produce the "Fool's Express" ahead of schedule, but now that he had another way, he decided to let things take their course and didn't want to do anything too troublesome.

Having previously killed a sorcerer, he decided to use the Star Worms raised by the sorcerer as messengers.

The previous Butis had been dismantled into individual Star Worms by him, and Morion had made them devour each other during the day, gathering the extraordinary characteristics into one of the Star Worms and feeding it into Morion's blood, making her the "mother" of the Star Worms. After that, she would then have her reproduce the remaining offspring that she had eaten.

This was something Morion learned from his past self in the world of Honkai Impact 3rd.

This caused them to join Morion's group, even separating them from the "Star Bugs" category, and their appearance even changed.

They now look somewhere between "worms" and "centipedes," with varying colors, some being translucent, and their skin surface adorned with tiny stars.

Moraine called them "star-traveling insects".

The messenger was the largest "Star Mother Worm".

Of course, she wouldn't deliver the message herself, but as a Sequence Four, she could receive prayers like a Sequence Three, thanks to Morion and the mask's status.

A typical Sequence 3 response prayer covers an area of ​​about one city.

The range of the wandering star is much larger; she can respond to prayers across the entire area covered by the swarm network.

With the help of the highly mobile "Stardust Swarm", the swarm network had covered the entire Loen region and spread to Intis, Lenburg and other countries in just one morning.

At that time, she will send her own servants to collect and deliver the mail.

messenger!

Audrey found it very novel.

I'm so curious...

Audrey was torn.

I'm so curious...

I'd like to see what Mr. Tower's messenger looks like.

However, I feel that keeping my personal information confidential is also very important...

After several tarot readings, Audrey had observed many things.

Firstly, Moraine showed almost no respect for Mr. Fool, while Mr. Fool treated Moraine with kindness, like a good friend rather than a god and a believer.

Secondly, Mr. Tower knows a great deal, readily spouting all sorts of hidden and extraordinary knowledge, but when it comes to things in the real world, his knowledge is surprisingly limited, aside from some common sense.

This made Audrey think of the common sense that "gods reside outside of reality, and even angels rarely walk on earth."

In addition, there was the report I saw in the newspaper today, "Mr. Tower kills a demigod."

At this moment, Audrey had already imagined that the Aurora Society demigod had offended Mr. Tower and was punished by the gods, being struck dead by lightning.

Finally, let's consider the "blasphemous slab" that appeared today.

Oh open!

Could it be that...?

“Okay,” Audrey smiled and nodded. “I understand.”

"However, I am willing to believe Mr. Tower."

She meant that she would summon it herself, as a sign of respect for Mr. Tower.

There's no reason why someone would ask for help but then refuse to show up in person.

Moreover, if Mr. Tower really is an angel, then no matter how much he hides himself, it will be useless.

It's possible that Mr. Tower already knew my identity and was just playing with a child.

Audrey thought.

Even Derrick Berg, the little sun, couldn't help but glance at Mr. Tower a couple more times.

messenger……

If there really are messengers, does that mean they can communicate with the outside world from Silver City?

Noticing Derrick's gaze, Moraine shook her head.

"My children cannot enter the Forsaken Land yet."

Mr. Tower's messenger was actually his own child?

Alger remained silent but listened attentively.

He had heard of the existence of "messengers," but most of them were spirit beings who used the special abilities of the spirit world to deliver messages.

This was the first time he had ever heard of someone using their own child as a messenger.

Could it be that one of Mr. Tower's descendants died and turned into an evil spirit or a vengeful ghost?

As Alger pondered, Audrey's cheerful voice rang out again.

"Mr. Tower, how do I summon your messenger?"

Morion placed the book he was holding on the table and explained with a smile:

"All that's needed is to set up a ritual spell."

"The specific process is very simple."

"First, prepare a small altar; it doesn't need to be too big."

"Then, just pick some herbs or essential oils that you like... Oh, they don't need to be too precious, just pick some that you like, but don't choose anything with insect repellent effects, my kids don't like them."

"Next are the candles, just the one that symbolizes yourself."

"Finally, there is the incantation part, which has three sections."
