"You have information on Wraith? Where is it?"
Klein hadn't expected Silas to give him such a pleasant surprise. He manipulated the [World] puppet to press further.
"In a Fourth Epoch noble mausoleum," Silas answered.
"Someone discovered traces of Wraith activity around the outer perimeter of the tomb and confirmed there's a colony of them inside."
The Fourth Epoch mausoleum he mentioned was naturally Amon's tomb.
At the Queen's gathering, that Sequence 5 Beyonder named Sharron had told him the relevant details.
"A Fourth Epoch noble mausoleum?"
Klein was startled, instinctively sensing danger from this, but still asked, "What compensation do I need to provide to obtain detailed information about it?"
"No compensation needed, because I don't know the details right now either."
Silas spread his hands. "The person who gave me the information has temporarily gone missing."
After the Queen left, Sharron had lost contact with him.
Before that, she had told him through the Queen that the tomb exploration had been canceled. He still didn't know what had happened.
"...Then I hope you can establish contact with them soon."
He saw that gloomy [World] fall silent for a moment before slowly speaking, as if somewhat speechless about his response.
What's the problem? Weren't you the one who asked me to keep an eye out for it? Naturally I can notify you when there's news.
Silas thought to himself.
Having watched the exchange between the two, he had roughly familiarized himself with the entire process.
One simply needed to announce their requirements, and if other people had leads, they would naturally respond.
However, based on his observations, the members of this Tarot Club didn't seem particularly strong. His own requests probably couldn't be satisfied.
But he might as well try.
So Silas looked around and spoke aloud:
"I need the Black Knight potion formula. Price negotiable."
After he finished speaking, a brief silence fell over the gray fog.
Black Knight... never heard of it...
[Magician] Fors thought with some confusion.
In her several years as a Beyonder, she hadn't encountered such a title. She looked up and around. Most of the members also seemed bewildered.
Only [The Sun] reacted differently. He suddenly jerked his head around to look at Silas.
He seems very surprised, very frightened. Is there something wrong with that Black Knight potion?
Fors couldn't help but speak up. "Um, sorry, I don't know what Black Knight is... May I ask, which Sequence is this?"
"Secrets Suppliant pathway, Sequence 4."
Silas answered flatly.
His tone was calm, but this sentence was like a bomb exploding in everyone's hearts, creating violent shockwaves.
Sequence 4!
Demigod!
Even in the powerful orthodox churches, such a rank was enough to be considered high-level.
The corresponding potions and formulas were classified secrets that couldn't be leaked.
And this newly joined [Temperance] had so casually and openly sought to purchase a Sequence 4 potion formula here?
Wasn't he overestimating them a bit too much!
On both sides of the long table, everyone immediately broke into an uproar, reacting differently.
So he really is from the Secrets Suppliant pathway...
After a few seconds of shock, [The Hanged Man] Alger almost immediately regained his composure and made his judgment.
Moreover, the other party wasn't a Sequence 6 Rose Bishop, but a higher Sequence 5, Shepherd!
You had to understand, among the current Tarot Club members, the highest was only Sequence 7.
They were still scheming to advance to Sequence 6, yet this newly joined [Temperance] had already begun trying to access the realm of demigods.
"May I ask who you're collecting the Black Knight potion for?"
Alger carefully chose his words, cautiously confirming.
"For myself, of course."
Silas answered frankly.
"You! You're a Shepherd!"
Before Alger could think of what to say next, [The Sun] Derrick beside him could no longer contain himself and cried out in shock.
You couldn't blame Derrick for such a strong reaction.
He had recently just experienced a disaster brought by the True Creator.
His friend had been corrupted while exploring a certain evil god's temple and had become a fanatical believer of this evil god.
If not for Mr. Fool's help, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
This had left [The Sun] Derrick with deep psychological trauma regarding this evil god and his followers.
"Mr. Fool!"
Derrick turned his head, calling toward the head of the long table. "He's a Shepherd!"
Shepherds were all believers of that evil god. Allowing such a dangerous existence to ascend here was a threat to everyone!
However, the two ladies across from him had different views.
Black hair, blue eyes, Secrets Suppliant pathway...
[Magician] Fors and [Justice] Audrey, after their initial surprise, gradually came to a realization.
Coincidentally, they both matched the familiarity they felt from him with a certain person they knew in reality.
Kafka Anderson!
This person was Mr. Fool's blessed, and had nothing to do with the True Creator.
Fors thought to herself.
Mr. Anderson actually joined our Tarot Club too, and he's even a powerful Sequence 5 Beyonder!
Audrey had already met Silas before and had some trust and understanding of him.
Having such a reliable and powerful acquaintance join her organization gave her a strong sense of security.
Our Tarot Club is getting better and better, she thought joyfully.
The two ladies, who knew part of the inside story but also misunderstood part of it, each had their own thoughts. Beyond their shock, they didn't seem as frightened.
"Don't worry, I'm not a believer of the True Creator.
If I worshiped an evil god, do you think I could hide it from Mr. Fool? Since He has accepted me, that already proves I'm safe."
Silas said, not particularly concerned about everyone's shock.
Hearing his explanation, everyone couldn't help but look simultaneously toward that lofty figure shrouded in gray fog at the head of the long table.
This guy Silas, how did he just self-expose like that right off the bat? Is he that brave...
Klein, bathed in everyone's gazes, complained internally.
But outwardly, he still maintained the necessary mysteriousness, slowly nodding and chuckling lightly, "His situation is rather special. He doesn't worship the Fallen Creator."
Mr. Fool's voice echoed above the gray fog.
With His assurance, everyone felt somewhat more at ease, but still maintained their guard against Silas.
"How about this, I'll prove myself using the fastest method." Seeing this, Silas spoke impatiently.
"I curse the True Creator. May He be dragged down from His divine throne and completely fall."
Several people broke into another uproar. This time, even the originally calm [Justice] and [Magician] felt somewhat unsettled.
He actually directly cursed a deity?
Even the best-disguised evil god believer could absolutely never utter such blasphemous words toward the existence they worshiped!
With that one sentence, all suspicion about him completely vanished.
"I apologize, Mr. [Temperance]..."
[The Sun] stammered an apology, saying rather awkwardly, "I just recently experienced something related to the Fallen Creator and got a bit sensitive."
"No problem."
Silas said flatly. "Not only do I not worship that evil god, on the contrary, I hate Him to the bone.
I will kill all His believers and drag Him down from that damned cross, personally delivering the most intense and vicious blasphemy..."
His voice was soft, but the hatred and madness in his tone overflowed, making everyone somewhat uneasy.
"...So, does anyone have the Black Knight formula?"
After venting slightly, Silas returned to his previous calm appearance and asked again.
The transition between the two states was so smooth, as if his very personality had switched.
Everyone fell into silence.
Among them, the highest rank was only Sequence 7. How could they possibly have access to a Sequence 4 potion formula?
In the strange quiet atmosphere, [The Sun] Derrick hesitantly spoke:
"I might have a lead..."
