Arcanum: Chaos Path

Chapter 65 Some Necessary Preparation
It seems that while the "Emperor" is quite possibly a novice Beyonder, he's clearly no ordinary wild Beyonder. Perhaps he's from some secret organization. Is this why Mr. Fool recruited him to join the Tarot Club? Jack's teacher actually knows secrets about angels; his Sequence is probably not too low...

Alger, the Hanged Man listening in, thought to himself. After a few seconds, he said, "In some extraordinary events related to the Aurora Society, there have indeed been believers whose prayers pointed to the existence of the realm of destiny... Perhaps this is the angel of destiny you mentioned, who follows the true Creator."

Although the Hanged Man Alger was unaware of Ouroboros's existence, the latter's honorific name was not a big secret among the followers of the True Creator. As an official Beyonder, Alger naturally knew about it.

After all, the Church of Storms is one of the churches that is most against the true Creator.

"Mr. Emperor, which path is destiny?" Justice Audrey couldn't help but ask curiously.

"As far as I know, Sequence 9 of the Destiny Path is called Monster. It is a path that will make people lucky..." Luo Lin introduced the general situation of the Destiny Path without hiding anything. Of course, he basically only introduced the situation of the middle and low sequences.

"Thank you, Mr. Emperor. What kind of compensation do you hope for?" Justice Audrey asked, having heard it with great satisfaction.

Although the Tarot Club does share some free information, the default practice is to pay for this valuable knowledge.

Of course, under normal circumstances, those who pay will apply for private discussions to avoid having their knowledge taken away for free by others, but as a wealthy woman, Justice Audrey naturally doesn't care about this.

"I'm a little short of money recently, so I hope to get some gold pounds." Rowling said frankly. He was indeed a little short of money recently.

"No problem. How much money do you want?" Justice Audrey immediately said that anything that could be solved with money was not a big deal.

"500 pounds?" Rowling gave an uncertain number, then thought for a moment before adding, "If you think it's not worth it, I can share some more knowledge with you. Which path are you more interested in?"

"Mr. Emperor, how much do you know about the audience's path?" Justice Audrey immediately became interested again. She really wanted to know the follow-up of her own path.

"The Spectator Path is also known as the Dragon Path. You already know this. Its subsequent sequences are Sequence 6 Hypnotist, Sequence 5 Dream Walker, and I'm not sure about the Demigod level. I only know that the Sequence Spectator is called the Manipulator..."

Luo Lin slowly introduced the audience to the next few sequences. He did not introduce the specific abilities, but only gave a general description of the performance of some sequences.

"I am very satisfied. Thank you, Mr. Emperor. I am willing to pay an extra 500 pounds for this knowledge." Even so, Justice Audrey was naturally very satisfied after hearing this and immediately said that she could pay more.

Thus, another deal that satisfied both parties was born.

Alger, the Hanged Man who had been listening, finally spoke after the two men finished their transaction, "I have a commission that I hope to entrust to you."

"What commission?" Justice Audrey looked at the Hanged Man Alger curiously.

"Tell me about it." Rowling also showed an interested expression, but in his heart he knew exactly what the Hanged Man Alger would entrust him with next.

"I've received news that the great pirate known as Vice Admiral Hurricane Qilingos has secretly infiltrated Backlund..." The Hanged Man Alger then stated his problem, which was naturally about entrusting other members of the Tarot Club to help investigate the whereabouts of Vice Admiral Hurricane Qilingos.

Of course, considering the danger of this matter, the Hanged Man Alger still conscientiously emphasized that they only needed to investigate the other party's whereabouts and instructed the rest of the Tarot Club not to attempt to deal with him. After all, normally, except for Mr. Fool, the rest of the Tarot Club were weaklings and would not be a match for Hurricane Vice Admiral Qilingos.

"Vice Admiral Hurricane Qilingos..." Luo Lin put on a face of nostalgia, then muttered subconsciously, "Could it be that the result of that divination came true here?"

The divination referred to here is naturally the one that Rowling had done for Hugh a few days ago.

Rowling needed a suitable reason so that Lucifer's appearance in this matter would not seem out of place. The previous divination result was obviously a good excuse.

"What divination?" Justice Audrey naturally noticed Rowling's murmur and asked curiously.

She knew that Mr. Jack seemed to be a fortune teller.

"Well, this is what I did. I did a fortune-telling for a friend of mine some time ago, and it told me that her life would be in danger within the next two months. The content of the divination was related to the ocean and money." Rowling explained the matter briefly. Without mentioning Xio's specific information, there was naturally nothing wrong with mentioning it.

"So, Mr. Emperor, do you think the danger your friend is about to encounter might be related to Hurricane Vice Admiral Qilingos?" Justice Audrey immediately understood.

The Hanged Man, Alger, pondered for a second before saying, "Vice Admiral Hurricane Qilingos is extremely dangerous. If your friend is truly at risk of encountering him, it's not surprising that he's in danger of his life. You'd better remind your friend to be careful. Even if the divination results don't point to this, it's not a bad idea to be cautious during this period."

Although he was a seasoned veteran, Alger still had a conscience. Moreover, in the previous transactions, he had already seen the value of the "Emperor" and naturally did not mind using a few words to win the other party's favor.

"I understand. I will remind her." Luo Lin nodded, but his expression was still a little sad.

This was naturally to pave the way for Jack Jones to write a letter to inform Lucifer of this matter. Given Jack Jones's character, it was not surprising that he would do this.

The Hanged Man Alger then introduced the path and abilities of Hurricane Vice Admiral Qilingos, emphasizing the magical item "Creeping Hunger" that the other party possessed.

Justice Audrey and Rollin also expressed their willingness to accept the commission and help investigate the whereabouts of Hurricane Vice Admiral Qilingos.

After this incident, several people shared some information, and this Tarot Club ended successfully.

……

"Then, it's time for me to go back to Backlund. The Qilingos incident should be enough for me to digest the Actor's Potion. Before that, I need to prepare the auxiliary materials for mixing the Mask Master's Potion." Rowling stretched, thinking about his next plan in his mind.

He then thought of his previous appearance in front of Klein and Old Neil under the Lucifer vest, and couldn't help but curl his lips. He said, "I wonder if the Church of Evernight has come to a conclusion on Lucifer's existence in the past few days..."
