Chapter 276 The Mysterious Medicine Master

pain!
it hurts!

It hurts so much!
"That's it for today."

Regarding the problems of the Kingdom of Rune, Klein, based on his many years of experience in political commentary, suggested selecting truly capable administrative officials through examinations, with these officials remaining unchanged during each election.

Then, the proposal to distribute the pie among those political positions that only require issuing orders and wielding power, as the prime minister changes.

This is the civil service examination system.

But while saying these words, Mr. Fool's already newly born spirituality was greatly diminished, and his head began to throb, so he had no choice but to adjourn the meeting.

“As you wish.” Squad Leader Ao said politely.

Qin Sheng felt regretful, as he hadn't yet been able to fully appreciate the flavors of this Source Fortress.

Klein's current sequence is too low, and he can only maintain it for too short a time each time.

After everyone left, Klein no longer maintained the aloof image of the Fool, but instead raised his hand and kept rubbing his temples and brow.

"After becoming an extraordinary being, my spirituality increased a lot, but who knew that I would accidentally overload it again."

However, looking back on what he had gained, Klein felt that the temporary headache was worthwhile.

At least I now know what role-playing is!
"Furthermore, if Miss Justice can truly push for institutional reform in the Kingdom of Rune, I can have Benson prepare in advance so he can pass the exam as soon as possible and become one of Rune's first civil servants. With such qualifications, Benson might even become a senior administrative officer in the future..."

That's why they say civil service exams require background checks. Many people are already thinking about getting people in before they've even passed the exam, especially now that the exam system for Luen hasn't even been implemented yet, and people are already preparing for it.

I suggest a thorough investigation of Tarot Clubs, with a focus on investigating members of the Fool's Club!
Klein looked at the other hidden red "stars" in the gray fog with some surprise.

"I can feel that I now have the ability to touch a star again. Hmm, I can add a new member to the QQ group."

But after careful consideration, Klein did not choose to do so.

"I can't be sure what kind of personality, background, or strength the person I summoned is. What if I end up with a super villain with immense power, or a high-ranking member of the church? Then I'm doomed."

Steady your hand first.

“Miss Justice is simple and wealthy, Mr. Hanged Man is suspected to be an extraordinary being on the high seas, and Mr. Emperor is powerful and has a wide network of connections. The fact that the three of them can be of great help to me is already a great help.”

"However, once the Emperor goes to Backlund, his identity will likely be exposed to Miss Justice. Let's hope there won't be any conflict between them."

"I wonder what kind of people they are in real life..."

The Great Evil God, Fool, was very curious about this question.

……

"Miss Sophia is transferring to Backlund University? And you're leaving tomorrow?!"

No. 2, Narcissus Street.

Klein looked at Qin Sheng and his sister, who had come to visit again, with a completely bewildered expression.

Why does this sound so familiar?

"That's right." Qin Sheng nodded.

“I’ve arranged Sophia’s transfer through a nobleman’s connections. She can start studying at Backlund University tomorrow.”

"I came here today specifically to say goodbye."

On the other side, Sofia and Melissa were whispering something, the two girls were very reluctant to part.

Klein, however, felt increasingly uneasy. "Mr. Noah, the noblewoman you mentioned, is she a lively and innocent young girl?"

"That's a good thing."

Klein's older brother, Benson, who was somewhat balding, said with a smile:

“Backlund, the city of all, has more possibilities. Sophia will have a brighter future as she studies in a better environment.”

Even a dog in Backlund eats magic potions.

He felt some regret and guilt, "Unfortunately, I didn't have the ability to get Melissa and Klein into Backlund as well."

Although they are both older brothers, Qin Sheng has such abilities, while Benson still needs his younger brother to take care of him, which makes Benson feel ashamed.

“You’re too modest, Mr. Benson. You’re a good older brother.” Qin Sheng shook his head.

Klein and Melissa had always been in school and had no income; the family relied entirely on Benson to support them through work and overtime.

Qin Sheng admired this kind of person.

"Although Sophia and I have parted ways, we will always be friends. If you ever need any help in the future, you can write to Backlund. This is my address there..."

"Queens?" Benson asked in surprise.

“I read in the newspaper that this is one of the best areas in Backlund, and that it is inhabited by nobles and the very wealthy.”

"This is another friend's house; I'm just staying here temporarily."

Is your friend the last princess of the empire?
"Klein, why aren't you saying anything?" Qin Sheng looked at the silent Fool.

Surprise, not unexpected?
“I’m just so surprised, it all happened so suddenly.” Klein thought for a moment and asked:

"Mr. Noah, what time are you leaving tomorrow? Perhaps we can see you off."

"No need, our train is at 9 a.m., you'll definitely be at work by then."

Fool, you never expected this, did you? I am the emperor!
Qin Sheng didn't care that Klein and Audrey knew his identity in the Tarot Club.

Got it, so what?
Come at me, I'll hit you.

Mr. Noah is definitely the emperor!

Klein truly hadn't expected such a coincidence.

The person who came twice and delayed my meetings, almost making me late, turned out to be a member of the Tarot Club.

Mr. Emperor, do you know that you almost ruined the Tarot Club?
The plan to destroy the world was devised by the Fool, while the plan to eliminate the Tarot Society was devised by the Emperor!
It is obvious who the true savior is.

"But Mr. Noah, how can you be the emperor?"

Thinking of the Emperor's profound occult knowledge, his own immense power, and his extensive network of connections displayed at the Tarot meeting, Klein felt a pang of envy.

No matter how well the emperor lived before, to Klein he was just an online friend. He might feel a little sentimental for a while, but he wouldn't really feel anything real about it.

He had seen too many lives of luxury while surfing the internet in his past life, and he was used to it.

But Klein and Qin Sheng already knew each other in reality and could be considered friends. Now, he suddenly discovered that this friend was not only a powerful figure in the mystical world but also a very wealthy man, and that his friends were all princesses of the empire...

Dude, I hope you're doing well, but you're doing way too well!

You're only in your twenties, and you've already reached this point. You haven't really suffered at all.

"Actually, the fact that Mr. Emperor is Noah is a good thing for me. He is the strongest person in this Tarot Club, at least someone I know."

After calming himself down a bit, Klein began to think about things from a different perspective.

"Perhaps in the future I can write to the Emperor and pretend to be someone who has just entered the world of mystery. Uh, no need to pretend, I am a newbie to begin with."

"Then try to talk to him about the mystical world, but you must never reveal that I am the Fool."

Even though Klein knew Qin Sheng's identity, it wasn't him who needed to worry about his safety...

Klein's mind worked quickly, and he soon realized that as long as the identities of the Fool and the Emperor, and Klein and Qin Sheng were clearly distinguished and kept as parallel lines, there would be no harm in it.

"The Emperor is unaware that I already know his identity."

Klein felt a sense of pleasure at the thought.

Although he had no intention of using this to harm Qin Sheng, he had at least gained some informational advantage.

win!
“Mr. Fool doesn’t know that he thinks I don’t know that he knows my identity.”

Looking at Klein's changing gaze, Qin Sheng thought to himself.

Fool, are you feeling quite smug right now?
Everything is going according to plan!
Wealth and honor do not return to their hometown, just like walking in brocade at night.

The Tarot Society and the Fool are that "village," letting the Fool know that the Emperor is equivalent to Qin Sheng, which is beneficial to Qin Sheng's future.

There are some things Qin Sheng can't say or do in real life, but it's different at a Tarot meeting, and bringing them up will be more effective.

How did you know I had an account with over 600,000 gold pounds?
How do you know I'm about to become a demigod?

With such an important figure as myself in the Tarot Club, Mr. Fool must be quite pleased.

Qin Sheng and his sister stayed at Klein's house for a last dinner before taking their leave.

The next time the five reunite will likely be in Backlund, by which time Night Watcher Klein may have already died, leaving only a resurrected "clown" alive.

Klein watched the two figures disappear down the street and thought to himself:

"In any case, I wish you all the best in Backlund, and I wish you peace in the mystical world, Your Majesty."

Despite his sour feelings, the Great Evil God Fool still hopes that his friends can have a better life.

If there are princesses or something in the future, it would be wonderful if you could introduce me to them.

Let's lend a hand to our brother!

the next day.

Just before heading to the train station, Qin Sheng arrived outside a house, and coincidentally, someone came out of the house.

He had black hair and green eyes. His hair was slightly long and unkempt, giving it a disheveled and unruly appearance. He had the air of a poet.

“Leonard,” Qin Sheng said.

This is Klein's colleague, a Sequence 8 midnight poet.

Leonard looked over, his brow furrowing; he didn't recognize the man.

At this moment, he showed a slight listening posture, as if listening to an unseen person speaking. The next second, Leonard became alert.

"What can I do for you, sir?"

"Don't be afraid, I'm not here to see you."

Qin Sheng stared at Leonard, but his gaze was actually fixed on someone else.

It was a translucent worm with twelve transparent rings on its body, and it had parasitized Leonard.

This is a Sequence 1 archangel, Pales Zoroastrian, whom we can call Old Pales.

"Aren't you coming out yet?" Qin Sheng asked. Because he was there to make a transaction, and also out of respect for elders and children, Qin Sheng didn't want to frighten the angel.

Otherwise, if Leonard had put on his monocle, bugs would probably have fallen all over him.

"Who are you?" an aged voice rang in Qin Sheng's ears.

"Anyway, it's not Amon."

Amon, the King of Angels on the Thief's Path, now possesses the extraordinary properties of two Sequence 1 "Time Worms," ​​plus uniqueness.

He is only one Sequence 1 attribute and the ascension ritual away from becoming a god.

The so-called Angel King is someone who, having already reached Sequence 1, additionally controls more Sequence 1 extraordinary characteristics or uniqueness in this path.

The simplest example is the property of accommodating two sequences of 1, which lacks uniqueness, resulting in a 2+0 state.

然后就是3+0、1+1、2+1这几种情况。

The uniqueness of a position and its strength are higher than those of the extraordinary characteristics of Sequence 1, making them more important and more difficult to accommodate.

In terms of configuration, Amon is already considered the top-tier angel king, reaching the limit of angels.

Because the Angel King in the 3+1 state has only appeared once in history, and that is Mr. Door in the apprentice path.

When an angel contains three Sequence 1 characteristics and uniqueness, these things aggregate uncontrollably, leading to His forced and irreversible godhood.

If one is not prepared for the ascension ritual, there is only one outcome: failure to become a god, and transformation into a mad monster occupying a divine position.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, the 3+1 Angel King should not exist; Mr. Gate's authority is due to his own special means of power.

"The abilities of the Angel King through the Thief's Path are extremely bizarre, truly befitting the Path of the Lord of Mysteries."

Thinking of Amon, Qin Sheng couldn't help but shake his head; the system was disgusting.

Even stronger than the 3+1 Angel Kings are the Angels who have mastered the Source Matter. This is the King of Angels, and no one in history has ever encountered such a being.

The Sequence 1 that Amon is currently missing is the old Parr on Leonard's body right in front of Qin Sheng.

Sequence 4 of the Thief pathway is called the Parasite, which can parasitize other people's bodies and conceal its own existence.

“Old Pa, if I were Amon, you would have already become an extraordinary ability,” Qin Sheng said.

Old Pa was severely injured by Amon years ago, but he managed to escape with his life, though his strength was greatly reduced. To avoid being hunted down, he ended up in Tingen City, where he lived in anonymity and slowly recovered.

In his current state, if he were discovered by Amon, it would be a certain death sentence.

Old Pa, however, never truly believed Qin Sheng's words.

An astrologer dared to come to me, an angel, and even mentioned Amon's name...

You say you're not Amon, then am I?
Why did I encounter Amon, the Goddess of the Night, in Tingen? Things shouldn't be like this.

Also, why do you call me Old Pa?
My name is Pales!
"What do you want to do?"

Before answering this question, Qin Sheng first isolated a spiritual space, which was profound and vast, and the seemingly endless spirituality made Lao Pa tremble with fear.

Leonard's consciousness had frozen, and he would not be able to sense anything from the outside world.

“Something’s not right. If it were Amon, He wouldn’t do this…”

Before he could react, Old Pa didn't just sit and wait to die; he immediately began to tentatively steal from Qin Sheng.

The Time Worm can steal other people's time, but this is useless against "Amon". It can also steal other people's fate, cognition, identity and extraordinary characteristics and exchange them with itself, but Old Pa doesn't dare to steal these things when facing "Amon".

Wouldn't doing this help "Amon" take over your body even faster?

Amun's authority is stronger than that of Pascal, and whenever it comes to a confrontation of authority, He will undoubtedly lose.

So Old Parr chose to steal some of the simplest things; that's called returning to simplicity.

It was also a test, to see what kind of person this was—the real Ammon? Or something else?

If not, then everything is negotiable; if so…

That would explode!

"You want my abilities as an astrologer? You can have them all, don't be shy." Qin Sheng was very generous.

The abilities such as Star Power, Star Prison, Starlight Body, and Scroll Making are all at Old Pa's disposal.

As for Qin Sheng's thoughts?
You can steal anything, I won't resist.

You stole my thoughts from the mysterious world. What does that have to do with me in other worlds?
Take everything you want.

The spiritual space took shape without any hindrance, covered with various twisted patterns, possessing all sorts of effects, and radiating endless holy light.

Old Pa was puzzled. "Didn't I steal your ability?"
Turning his head, Old Pa was dumbfounded. What was this pile of garbage he had stolen?
All of them are abilities below Sequence 4, and their thoughts are blank thoughts without any real ideas. How come it seems like you are really just an astrologer?
"You can fight against theft..."

This is not Amon, but another unknown angel. I feel like it is the hidden authority of the goddess of night.
"To be honest, when you stole my power, did you feel any resistance from me?" Qin Sheng protested, claiming he was innocent.

You stole all my sequence abilities, so I had no choice but to use the Heaven-Covering Secret Technique. You chose it, old Pa.

Old Pa remained silent; it seemed this person was truly letting him steal at will.

"What are you going to do? Can you tell me now?"

"I need a drop of blood from a complete mythical creature as material for my ascension ritual," Qin Sheng said frankly.

"I think the blood of the Time Worm is quite good, so I'd like to make a deal with you."

It must be at least a Sequence 2 angel to be a complete mythical creature.

The ritual to ascend to demigod requires dealing with angels, and without a powerful background, it's really difficult for a Seer to reach Sequence 4.

“And whatever you want, just tell me, and I can find it for you, but the value cannot exceed a drop of angel blood. We will exchange them at an equal price.”

Qin Sheng: "I can agree to parasitize me to heal your injuries, but of course, it can only be a preliminary parasitism."

There are two types of parasitism, the most terrifying of which is deep parasitism, where everything except your own thoughts is controlled.

Another type is preliminary parasitism, which is much better. The parasite can only see and hear the host, but cannot spy on the host's mind and thoughts. Without harming the host, it can hide itself and restore its life.

Leonard is in that situation; it's like having an extra ring on his head.

"You're willing to let me parasitize you?"

"Of course, I'm someone who values ​​fairness the most."

Despite Qin Sheng's seemingly sincere offer, Old Pa dared not be careless, but after much deliberation, he could not find a way to break the deadlock.

Even though he is now severely injured, the old archangel Pavel is still capable of fighting back. This raises the question of whether it's worth it.

Of course, you have to fight to the death against Amon, but to fight to the death against an angel who only wants a drop of your blood seems a bit too foolish...

Even if He could run away, He couldn't possibly take Leonard with him. And deeply parasitizing Leonard and turning him into a puppet was something Old Man Parr wouldn't want.

Old Pa is the last and only conscience among thieves.

The thief has a conscience of ten measures, but He alone possesses it all.

Seeing Old Pa remain silent, Qin Sheng nodded. "Very good, indeed very cautious. But I can understand. If you weren't so cautious, you wouldn't be alive now."

Qin Sheng tossed out a green crystal, which hovered beside Leonard.

"This is the fourth sequence of the Cultivator's Path, a life crystal made by an ancient alchemist. It contains the purest life force. You surely know whether it's real or fake, and how to use it."

The Crystal of Life was obtained by Qin Sheng from Bernadette, specifically for this purpose.

A crystal of life may not be as valuable as the blood of an archangel, but it can demonstrate Qin Sheng's goodwill.

Old Pa examined the Crystal of Life, filled with doubt and confusion, completely baffled by Qin Sheng's methods.

So you really came here to make a deal with me?
Then you didn't tell me earlier!
He now sees Qin Sheng as a resurrected angel, just like Bernadette, and seeks to reclaim his own identity.

The angel who leads the way to the secrets... is it Emperor Roselle?
After a moment of silence, Old Parr spoke up, "I can give you my blood, but you can't hurt Leonard."

"Okay, is there anything else you require?"

Are there still any Life Crystals like this?

"I still suggest you choose to parasitize me to recover from your injuries. After absorbing this Crystal of Life, it won't be difficult for you to create a Time Worm to parasitize."

The angels of the Thief Path are very strange; they can create a large number of Time Worm clones. After the original body dies, the clones can steal the original body's identity, fate, etc., and transform into a new original body.

To be honest, Qin Sheng really hoped that Old Pa could create a clone to initially parasitize him, which would mean that he would have the opportunity to extract all the knowledge and experience of this angel who had lived for thousands of years.

The mysterious alchemist, an artificial cheat code!

"I need a peaceful life."

Old Man Parvati ultimately did not choose to do so; He was very cautious and would not take such a risk.

Qin Sheng expressed his regret and had no choice but to take out four more Life Crystals and give them to Him.

Old Pa: "..."

I wonder which era this old thing came from; it's truly insidious.

The more I look at it, the more it resembles the style of Emperor Roselle.

The Crystal of Life is mainly made by extracting the life force of nature or living beings. It's not difficult, but it takes a lot of life.

Finally, Qin Sheng obtained a drop of archangel's blood, which shimmered and seemed to contain the river of time.

"You're too wary. I hope we can have a pleasant conversation next time we meet."

Qin Sheng dispersed the spiritual space, turned and left, not wanting to frighten the elderly any further.

"They're really gone." Old Pa felt like it was a dream.

"Old man, where is the enemy?" Leonard suddenly realized, as if facing a formidable foe.

"By the time you realize it, you'll have been killed ten times over!" Old Pa said irritably.

……

"Next, we'll help Sophia get acquainted with the new environment, and then find time to practice the first five sequences while waiting for Beibei to deliver the subsequent extraordinary traits..."

Before the next major event occurs, Qin Sheng is destined to live a relatively peaceful life.

Off we go, Backlund!
Mr. Fool, at every tarot reading from now on, I will share my happy life with you, so that you can feel fully involved.

This is the duty of a loyal Tarot Club member!
