Lord of Mysteries: Taiyi

Chapter 133 The Sixth Tarot Meeting (3400)

Above the gray fog, Klein summoned the sun to arrive in the gray fog ahead of schedule.

Klein allowed him to recite his honorific name and told him the format and time of the upcoming meeting.

Specifically, 15 minutes before the meeting, Klein would notify the Sun, and then let the Sun find a space to be alone within 1000 heartbeats.

Afterwards, Klein turned on the silver watch and saw that it was already three o'clock. He then placed his hand on the three stars that symbolized "justice," "the Hanged Man," and "the Lovers."

Derrick, on the other hand, instinctively stared at the strange object he had never seen before.

Then he saw bursts of light erupt from his side and opposite him, stretching out three blurry human figures.

Audrey Hall first glanced quickly at Mr. "Lover" and noticed that he still had a faint smile on his lips, and then she saw the unfamiliar figure that appeared beside him.

Audrey was momentarily stunned, and then Mr. Fool's steady voice rang out: "This is a new member, titled 'The Sun'."

"This is Miss Justice, this is Mr. The Hanged Man, and this is Mr. The Lovers."

A new member! Audrey was first surprised, then filled with joy.

She was very happy to see the Tarot Club grow and thrive, showing a strong sense of ownership.

Alger, the "Hanged Man," frowned slightly, somewhat displeased with Mr. Fool's behavior, but then he realized that someone of Mr. Fool's level obviously wouldn't consider the needs of lower-level members.

"Lover" Kurt chuckled and greeted "The Sun." It was a good thing that Mr. "The Sun" hadn't been blown away by the butterfly effect he had created.

But the only thing that puzzled Kurt was that he always felt something was off about the "sun," but he couldn't quite put his finger on why.

A very indescribable and subtle feeling: Is the Silver City related to me? Or is it related to my past life? This is what Kut interpreted through the purest spiritual intuition.

However, he immediately ignored this anomaly, or rather, put it aside for the time being, because he was basically unrelated to the Forsaken Land now and would not go there. It would not be too late to investigate this anomaly when his sequence was higher. Moreover, his past life was related to that person, so he should not have too much curiosity.

Audrey, on the other hand, examined "The Sun" from the perspective of an audience member and found that Derrick was probably very young, rather aloof, but felt rather happy.

Gently shaking her head, Audrey said happily to Mr. Fool, "Mr. Fool, I've collected two pages of Emperor Roselle's diary!"

Kurt withdrew his scrutinizing gaze from Derrick and said with a smile, "Mr. Fool, I only got one page of the diary this week."

Upon hearing the new Roselle diary, Klein was delighted and calmly asked, "What do you two want?"

Kurt shook his head first and said, "I want to accumulate experience first."

The Fool nodded slowly and silently breathed a sigh of relief.

Audrey said, "I've finished digesting the 'Audience' potion. Now I'm missing the ingredients for the Mind Reader potion! A complete pituitary gland from an adult Rainbow Lizard Dragon or 10 ml of spinal fluid from a Farsman Rabbit. Of course, if that's not available, I'd also like to accumulate merit points. If the value isn't enough, I can pay another sum—"

Before she could finish speaking, she suddenly realized something was wrong and couldn't help but curse herself inwardly:

Mr. Fool is at least a great man who is close to the divine; how can you insult Mr. Fool with money?

She quickly added, "Mr. Fool, that's not what I meant. I meant you can suggest the compensation you need yourself, um—"

Kurt suppressed the urge to smile—he really wanted to preach on the spot and try to believe in the One!

Just offer me your gold coins and I'll give you superpowers!

Upon hearing Audrey's suggestion, Klein was immediately stumped. The Extraordinary Gatherings he knew of were all too low-level, making it almost impossible to find the main ingredients for a Sequence 8 potion.

At this moment, Derrick suddenly asked, "The audience, the mind reader, and then the psychoanalyst's mind reader?"

Audrey looked at him questioningly and asked, "You know about this route?"

Everyone present realized that the term "psychoanalyst" used by Derrick was an archaic one! "Psychotherapist" is the more common term used today!

It's strange, Audrey and Alger both began to scrutinize the "Sun's" actions.

Derrick, completely oblivious to anything amiss, replied earnestly, "I can help you obtain the materials or extraordinary properties. Of course, I can also get the recipe."

There is a psychoanalyst in Silver City, and there are obviously corresponding materials in the surrounding area.

After finishing his explanation, Derrick, feeling somewhat guilty due to the lack of available materials, forced an explanation as to why their Silver City possessed the 789 sequence through this pathway, even revealing ancient knowledge that giants and dragons were mortal enemies.

This kid—I even told him before not to talk nonsense and reveal his background. Klein almost covered his face and sighed.

However, this also made him realize that the audience originated from dragons, and that the history of the Silver City was well preserved.

The Giants' Court, the Dragon Clan, the Silver City—Audrey listened, somewhat confused. She observed the Hanged Man opposite her and found that he was also somewhat shocked and puzzled.

Having heard the news that morning that seemed to be about Mr. Lover, Audrey subconsciously looked at Mr. Fool, only to find him still as mysterious as ever, calm and still, without the slightest fluctuation of his aura, completely unfathomable—he certainly knew, completely knew.

Finally, he glanced timidly at Mr. Kurt, only to find that the other man showed no surprise or confusion.

Klein was also secretly observing Mr. "Lover," noticing that his expression was very calm, as if he knew what Silver City was, and seemed completely unsurprised that I could bring "The Sun" to him.

Mr. Kurt knows something! This is what Audrey has deduced from her audience analysis—Mr. Kurt always seems to disdain pretense, except for those two times when he kept a close eye on her—

Is this what it means to be truly favored by the gods? Audrey couldn't help but feel envious. To have the power to do what you love! This is the state I've always dreamed of!

Thinking of this, Audrey deliberately asked, "The Silver City? Where is it?"

Derrick looked at the three people in front of him with some doubt. They should be ordinary extraordinary beings. Derrick had never seen any living people other than those from the Silver City. So Derrick asked in return, "Aren't you citizens of the Silver City? Then which city-state are you from?"

Sigh—Klein really wanted to let out a long sigh.

Mr. Sun means that if we don't want to share our location, we shouldn't ask the other person for theirs. Mr. Sun doesn't seem as innocent as he appears.

Audrey gracefully closed her mouth and fell silent.

Alger, the "Hanged Man," was the same—but Kurt spoke slowly and directly: "Your question is flawed from the start, Mr. Sun. I guess you've never seen the sun, have you?"

How could someone have never seen the sun? Audrey was completely bewildered, not understanding why her lover would ask such a strange question. Could it be that the Silver City was built underground?

Alger also fell into deep thought, vaguely guessing what was going on, but unable to be sure, he quietly waited for what would happen next.

According to Derrick's previous description, the Silver City is always in darkness, and when lightning strikes frequently it is daytime, and vice versa—Klein thought to himself, obviously Mr. Kurt knows about the Silver City!

Derrick asked with some doubt, "Of course I've never seen it. Nobody has ever seen the sun. That's why I chose the Sun card. I want to become the sun of Silver City!"

He really had never seen the sun—Audrey looked at Derrick, who was almost indistinguishable from ordinary humans, and became increasingly curious about where he came from.

Alger's suspicions deepened, his brow furrowed, a chill ran down his spine, and he felt an even greater awe of Mr. Fool.

Kurt nodded affirmatively and said, "Of course, the sun will always rise on time the next morning, just like the ancient history recorded in your Silver City."

Of course, it's not necessarily true that the eternal sun is dead; with the barrier in place, the sun that people usually see is actually it.

Seeing Derrick so excited he almost stood up, he exclaimed, "Where are you? How are we supposed to get to you?!"

Kurt made a soothing gesture and said, "Don't get agitated, child. I also heard about your Silver City from the Mother Goddess—in any case, you can't leave right now."

"As I said before, the sanctuary of the fallen creator is in the Forsaken Land—and the Silver City is also in the Forsaken Land."

"A land forsaken by God, a fallen creator—" Derrick murmured, then quickly realized something. His spirits dampened, but a glimmer of hope remained as he asked, "Mr. 'Lover,' how can we regain the Creator's attention?"

Kurt, the "lover," shook his head helplessly and said, "I only learned about this by chance, and I'm afraid there's nothing I can do about it."

He has probably achieved his goal. As for how to escape the Forsaken Land, that will be discussed later. He is now skipping the tedious information exchange part in the original work and directly telling Little Sun about his situation, and making him quickly accept the reality that the Creator has fallen.

This way, Kurt can quickly trade materials with Little Sun, level up faster, and better plan how to help Silver City.

Just like he helped Klein, Kurt didn't mind helping Derrick at the most crucial moment; it's always good to save lives.

The members of the Tarot Club were completely bewildered by this series of messages: the Forsaken Land, the Silver City, the Fallen Creator—

Why are we suddenly discussing such profound topics? The environment of Silver City is harsh, it's the abode of an evil god, and there's no sun, so crops can't grow—Audrey felt a little dizzy; these words were too dense with information.

As expected of the Forsaken Land, there are even human city-states there—Mr. Fool was able to pull people directly from the Forsaken Land to the Gray Fog! Another thing that shocked Alger was his lover's seemingly casual remark.

During the conversation with the Mother Goddess, I learned—damn, how can the difference between people be so vast? The person Mr. Fool pulled up is definitely not ordinary—

Could he possess some special potential that he himself hadn't even discovered? Alger couldn't help but fall into deep self-doubt.

Klein struggled to maintain his posture, his mind reeling. A conversation with the Mother Goddess? You and the Mother Goddess are really close! And you know so much and are willing to share it for free. It seems keeping him around was the right choice.

Since Kurt had pointed out something Derrick was very concerned about, Derrick, after recovering slightly, said gratefully, "Mr. Lover, thank you for your knowledge and explanation. Is there anything I can do for you?"

"As expected of the Little Sun—" Kurt said with a slight smile, "Help me find a pair of complete Law-Reversing Gaze eyes as payment for the knowledge I gained. I will also actively collect relevant knowledge to exchange for materials in the future."

"Another one to take advantage of for free," Kurt thought with a guilty conscience.
