Chapter 523: Chapter 461 The World Chapter 523: Chapter 461 The World “Good grief, adjacent paths?”

Tao Yu was still staying in the hospital, holding the two characteristics returned by Leonard.

When he was bored, he also performed divination.

His Assassin Path’s characteristic was that of the Sequence Six Pleasure Witch.

It wasn’t a material, but purely an extraordinary characteristic likely dropped after a Witch’s death.

Through divination, he was somewhat shocked to find that the ‘Arsonist’ was a very good fit for him; it must be an adjacent path.

“Witches can play with black fire, and Arsonists can play with fire too; adjacent paths don’t seem too strange.

And the Sequence Nine of Arsonist is called Hunter, which also corresponds to Assassin.

…

I remember Klein seemed to have one…”

Tao Yu was immune to corruption, and the extraordinaries’ characteristics can be considered as the main ingredient of Magic Potions without supplementary materials.

Just right now, the digestion of the Instigator Magic Potion was completed.

Although the progress on the Witch’s side was mediocre, it was sufficient for another endeavor.

Considering Eve’s statement that she had ‘almost finished digesting,’ this ‘Pleasure Witch’ doesn’t seem to be that serious, but then again, neither is he, so there’s a high likelihood it would be like the ‘Assassin,’ having already completed a part of the digestion in advance.

Moreover, the subsequent digestion difficulty should not be too high for him.

Similarly, for him, given his former experiences exploring the Abyss, crafting the Hunter Magic Potion of Sequence Nine should be a piece of cake…

“Rosago had shown this before, in this world, dealing with Sequence Five is still quite challenging, especially against those peculiarly filthy things.”

Thinking of Rosago, Tao Yu felt some pressure.

But should he tell Eve that he had completed the digestion?

Ask her for the formula?

That’s too quick…

…

After resting in the hospital for a few days and waiting for the heat to die down, Tao Yu chose to be discharged and then rented a room on Minsk Street.

It’s not that Tao Yu was fond of this place, but due to the influence of the ‘gas explosion,’ a tenant whose lease was up chose not to renew and fled.

Since there was such an opportunity, Tao Yu naturally didn’t bother to pick deliberately.

Klein, whom he hadn’t seen for several days, seemed to have realized that things were almost settled and brought some small gifts as a way to visit his sick neighbor.

“You’re from the Church of the Night, so I didn’t come when you were hospitalized.

Are you doing okay?” Klein asked simply.

“I wasn’t really sick enough to be hospitalized.

This time turned out quite well; I even got a Sequence Six characteristic from the Church of the Night, but it’s a pity I don’t have the formula,” Tao Yu responded casually.

“A Witch?

I know the formula for the ‘Pleasure Witch.’ I got it from divining the Witch in Tingen.

Uh, maybe the characteristic you have is hers…” Klein’s expression looked somewhat strange.

Divination consumes Spirituality.

Klein’s divination used up the residual Spirituality on Lady Sharon’s extraordinary item, so no matter how Tao Yu tried, it was of no use.

“You know it?

Come on, tell me quickly.”

“Um…”

Klein didn’t hold back and wrote down the formula directly.

“But Sharon said you’re very strong.

A Sequence Seven holding on for so long in front of a Sequence Five is almost unreal,” Klein remarked, his identity as ‘Fool’ knowing there was something special about Tao Yu, but he could still naturally express admiration without blowing his cover.

“Strong my ass.

I was almost done for.

That guy’s methods were too bizarre,” Tao Yu lamented.

Thinking about Rosago’s abilities still gave him a headache.

Encountering him was actually a major reason why Tao Yu wanted to level up to Sequence Six forcibly before digesting the Magic Potion.

Knowing now that a high sequence starts from above Four, with angels above Two, Tao Yu just wanted to ensure he had decent dominance under a high sequence in his normal state, didn’t he?

The gap between Sequence Four and Five might be vast, and even if he reached Sequence Five, he might not be able to stand against Sequence Four under normal conditions, but after reaching Sequence Six, managing a normal confrontation with Sequence Five and even defeating them should be feasible.

However, abilities in this world are tricky, and power isn’t simply demonstrated by rank.

Under the right circumstances, environment, and conditions, triumphing over a stronger opponent is also quite common.

He just wanted to ensure a high likelihood of suppression; as for the rest, it would depend on micromanagement.

When necessary, he could exempt himself from many special abilities as well…

“By the way, wasn’t the gang member you killed last time a ‘Hunter’?

Do you know the formula?

And give me some materials too,” Tao Yu suddenly brought it up to Klein.

“Oh, it’s still there.

What do you want it for?”

“It’s useful.”

Seeing Tao Yu was unwilling to explain, Klein didn’t inquire further.

“Alright, I’ll bring it to you tonight.

I’ve recently taken on a new task.

There’s an underground passage, and I’ve divined that there might be a wraith present.

Interested in checking it out?”

“A wraith?

I could go explore; however, Becland is deep waters.

I need to first ascertain the danger level and prepare well.”

Tao Yu was naturally willing to partake in anything that might be beneficial.

From obtaining the Sequence Six materials this time, it was evident that being proactive in his endeavors was more likely to bring good fortune…

“Right, I might also be attending a certain gathering, so just be a little cautious,”

Klein suddenly mentioned in a muffled voice.

Having acquired Rosago’s characteristics, he had the ability to knead a ‘puppet’ above the gray mist as a disguise and was preparing to enter the Tarot Club in his own identity.

This was a capability of his Pathway Sequence Five extraordinaries; by the time he needed to use it, he could craft it by hand, ensuring a seamless transition.

“Ah?

But that makes sense, your strength is just right to join our kids’ table.

I suspect Mr.

Fool might have higher-level gatherings.

Let me tell you, I’ve seen a follower under his command before, perhaps an Angel…”

Tao Yu combined the impressions that man had left on him with some of the arcane knowledge he had since acquired, and whispered to Klein.

This left Klein feeling somewhat speechless.

I have an Angel under my command?

Since when?

Actually, Mr.

Fool also belongs to the kids’ table…

…

The Tarot Club meeting arrived as scheduled, and Klein’s official persona, ‘Mr.

World’, made his appearance at the meeting.

This made Miss Justice, who was prepared for routine greetings, feel rather taken aback, but she soon rejoiced at the growth of the Tarot Club.

Tao Yu, as he had agreed with Klein, acted with all seriousness as if he did not recognize ‘Mr.

World’, greeting and introducing himself to the other.

At the same time, he also realized that Klein was quite good at putting on an act.

His demeanor above the gray mist was completely different from reality.

Cold and distant, he appeared very aloof.

If it wasn’t for prior assumptions, one couldn’t possibly make the connection,

completely different from his previous deduction of Miss Justice’s identity.

After they had introduced themselves,

it was, of course, The Hanged Man who still owed diary pages and Mr.

Fool’s enjoyable reading time.

Tao Yu was still waiting to take the diary pages back to read.

As free communication began, ‘Mr.

World’, attending the gathering for the first time, took the initiative to issue three task bounties, which could be interpreted as quite a strong first move.

The first was ‘to investigate one of the masterminds behind the Tingen’s disaster, the con artist Lanerus.’

“…Lanerus is one of the masterminds behind the Evil God’s offspring’s descent in Tingen, so one needs to be careful when investigating, as it might involve the Aurora Society,”

Mr.

World, having only just arrived, could be said to have elevated his stature with these tasks.

He entrusted tasks involving the ‘offspring of an Evil God’ and the ‘Aurora Society’ at the meeting, immediately shocking everyone present.

They were also wondering about Klein’s identity, as they knew Mr.

Destiny was involved in the matter.

They just didn’t know whether Mr.

World was some official extraordinaire, or if he was aware of Mr.

Destiny’s existence…

The Hanged Man, Alger, began to feel wary, realizing that his status as an old hand in the Extraordinary World was being shaken, with the possibility of being replaced.

Miss Justice, on the other hand, took on a more solemn respect and then pondered before speaking,

“If the person is still in Becland, I think I might be able to offer some help.”

She finished speaking and glanced at Tao Yu.

She didn’t know whether Mr.

Destiny was still in Becland but didn’t presume to say anything on her own.

“Mmm, I can help too,”

Afterward, Klein pretentiously utilised Mr.

Fool’s supernatural power to materialise the sketched portraits.

Since the person to be found was in Becland, both The Sun and The Hanged Man could only watch helplessly, but they were also curious about what Mr.

World could offer as a reward.

It seemed the difficulty would not be insignificant.

“The second is that I wish to acquire the true roots of the Mist Tree, at least 60 milliliters of the corresponding fluid, and the entire spinal fluid of a Shadowed Panther.”

The second task of Mr.

World’s persona involved a main ingredient, accepted by The Sun, who was an adept at creating various extraordinary materials.

However, no one showed interest in the other part, to which Klein didn’t pay much mind, finding it quite satisfactory to have one accepted.

“The third, I hope to obtain all information on the fallen nobles of the Loen Kingdom, including their current addresses, the more detailed the better.”

Tao Yu indeed knew the reason behind Klein’s assignment of this task, which was probably related to the preparation of that mysterious underground world’s information.

And without a doubt, Miss Justice took this one on.

Since the search for the con artist might not yield results, there was no need for immediate payment; they could wait until the person was found.

The materials from The Sun and the third task from Miss Justice, however, were almost certain to be completed.

The Sun requested an extraordinary weapon as compensation, while Miss Justice asked Mr.

World for a segment of mysterious knowledge, the content of which was obscured and unknown.

Overall, it could be considered a win-win situation.

“I have a need for the formula of the Sequence Eight Provoker’s magic potion, as well as for the Sequence Seven Arsonist; any related information is welcome, and the reward can be negotiated,”

Tao Yu also took the opportunity to release a task.

The Pleasure Witch was only short of some auxiliary materials, which were relatively easy to secure, and it was almost certain that the digestion would go smoothly.

Hence, he could consider the Hunter Path for himself.

He would start from Sequence Nine and gradually try it out, halting once digestion started to impact him to a threshold, while slowly looking for the materials for a Sequence Five Witch.

“Actually, Mr.

A over here has a Sequence Five Witch, and now I’m not sure what Eve’s superior is…”

Too bad, Mr.

A is unstable; he might cause a great commotion, otherwise, I could have detained him during our last encounter…
