After hearing Miss Justice's words, Drik of the Sun responded with great enthusiasm: "Our warehouses in Silver City should have the complete brains of mature mind dragons. I'll check upon my return and let you know." He had originally intended to add that even if they possessed the complete brains of mature mind dragons, they would likely be filled with madness and distorted mental contamination, but upon glancing at the bronze-green cross, he decided that wasn't an issue at all. How simple? Miss Justice, Audrey, brightened up noticeably—her earlier sense of listlessness from last night had lifted. Indeed, compared to the dwindling number of dragons in the outside world, the Silver City, inheriting its traditions from the Second Age, is more likely to have the corresponding materials. Well, mainly because they lack the "audience" pathway to access higher-tier recipes—even if they have the materials, they can't put them to use. Moreover, they lack skilled artisans who could transform extraordinary materials into the very magical items needed. Sometimes, they simply choose to keep them stored as they are. Odile immediately thought of several such possibilities and smiled, asking, "If you have something you need, what would you exchange it for?" "I haven't quite decided yet…" The "Sun," Deric, blushed slightly, almost reaching up to scratch behind his head. Right now, his primary goal and driving motivation is to secure the Master Craftsman's legacy from the "Fortune" gentleman. Yet, he has nothing of equal value to offer in return. In the past, he would have been deeply concerned about this. Now, however, amid his concerns, he has already begun to form a clear plan: he will approach the Chief, certain that the Chief would also be deeply interested in the Master Craftsman's legacy. Based on this idea, he truly didn't know what to ask "Justice" to pay for—instead, he decided to first clarify the other matters. "Yes, then you go ahead and make the confirmation, and if possible, check whether there's any adult mind-drake blood available." "Justice" Odile didn't press further, simply nodded gently. That was the most difficult auxiliary ingredient to obtain in the "Dream Walker" potion recipe. Odile then glanced around, indicating that the transaction was complete. No need to look at me. Though I do have a decent savings now, I really don’t have much I’d like to purchase. The main thing is that my teacher hasn’t yet given me the recipe for the "Traveler's" elixir. Among the five ranks before "Apprentice," I’ve always been most drawn to "Traveler." I’ve always longed to experience the beauty of different places and the flavors of their cuisines, yet I’ve been held back by long journeys, often crowded or poorly equipped transportation, unclean inns along the way, and the inevitably bulky luggage. Once I become a "Traveler," all of these will no longer be obstacles. Folth, the "Sorcerer," began to drift into more expansive thoughts, imagining the life ahead. As for "Judge" Tho, he paused and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, could you please keep an eye out for the elixirs of the 'Arbiter' path—specifically, the one for Rank 6, 'Judge,' and the one for Rank 5, 'Knight of Justice.'" She had the opportunity to obtain the "Judge" recipe from MI9 liaison officers, but she believed that the Viscount Stedford's death would certainly spark a storm in Beckland, bringing about significant changes—so she decided to make an extra preparation at the Tarot gathering, even though she only asked people to keep an eye out rather than actively collect information. Moreover, within MI9, Sequence 6 and Sequence 5 were certainly mid-level; peripheral intelligence staff would likely have to undergo a new review to secure access to the potion recipes—something that couldn't be easily waived by the friendly liaison officer she currently had. Given her urgent desire to advance in sequence and uncover the king's secrets, it was undoubtedly impossible to rely solely on the military side. "Agreed," said "The Hanged Man" Aljer first. Due to its influence over the royal family and the military, the Storm Church likely holds some of the elixirs from the "Ardent" path. Of course, this isn't a "Sequence 6" matter—only when the pirate captain assumes that role will they be aware. Once the "Hanged Man" becomes formally recognized as a Sequence 5, and is either recalled to the Church or assigned to more pressing duties, they'll have the opportunity to access them. Following this, the "Hermit" Gauthier added: "The elixirs from the 'Ardent' path are tightly controlled by the royal and military establishments in Runa and Fenenport, so they're rarely seen outside. I can certainly try to secure them for you, though I can't guarantee when success will come. Also, if you need it, I can provide a magical item from the 'Judge' path—once it's shattered and reassembled, it yields the corresponding primary ingredient." As she mentioned the words "shattered and reassembled," Gauthier instinctively turned halfway to indicate that the "Judgment" lady could ask the " Fool" gentleman for assistance, but ultimately restrained herself. As for how she acquired the potion recipes, it was actually quite simple: she merely needed to actively listen to the murmurs of the "Hidden Sage" and accept the knowledge poured into her—by the time she reached Sequence 4 and became a half-god, her capacity to endure had undergone a qualitative transformation. However, the "Hidden Sage" was by no means an unwise being; He likely infused certain adverse effects within the murmurs and knowledge, even summoning divine power to directly descend and contaminate the listener. Thus, such experiences remained perilous. Gardeleia's courage in attempting this was not mere boldness or arrogance, but stemmed from her status as a member of the Mois Monastic Order. As an ancient organization that believes in the "hidden sages," the upper echelons of the Moth Monastery have been influenced by this presence while simultaneously developing a whole set of relatively safe methods of "listening." Likewise, the "hidden sages" do not harbor overly intense malice toward the Moth Monastery members; they rarely actively harm them, instead mostly simply flooding them with knowledge, compelling them to pursue their followers. For the "recluse" Gauthier, as long as she manages the frequency and timing of her encounters, she can reliably gather knowledge from the "hidden sages," and the accompanying influence and contamination—she suspects that each time she attends a Tarot gathering and enters the mist above—can naturally and simply be cleared away. The only issue is that she cannot control what knowledge she receives; it is entirely dependent on the "hidden sages'" current mood and thoughts at the time. In a sense, this is a passive, unresisting form of sacred rite. And the magical item that Gauthieria was willing to offer—the one from the path of the Judge—came from the strongest hunter of the Mist Sea, Andersen, a simple button. After becoming a half-god, the items she once possessed had grown increasingly difficult to use, and this very button was among them. Upon hearing her words, the Judge, Thue, immediately agreed: "Very well. Once I obtain the recipe for the 'Judge's' magic potion, I will consider purchasing it." "I hope by then I've advanced another rank, so that the gray mist powers at my disposal are no longer merely approaching angelic level, but equal to it—only then can I shatter objects and reconfigure their properties. Otherwise, I'll have to rely on Madame Arianna or Will Onsight. Hmm, if Mr. Azkir awakens, things will be much simpler... I'm not sure whether the 'Cross of No Darkness' can extract the extraordinary properties from items. It seems to repel them entirely, refusing to let them come near. Aside from this limitation, theoretically, it should work. I'll try using the gray mist's power to force the 'Cross of No Darkness' into close contact with other magical items. While listening to the Tarot members' conversation, Klein thoughtfully pondered the matter. After settling the matter of the "Judgment" lady, the other members seemed to have no further transaction needs—the "Star" Leonard had now strengthened the magical artifacts, the "Turner" Aljer was actively working to legitimize his strength, the "Sun" Deric was solely focused on the Maker's relics, while the "Moon" Emlin and the "Hermit" Garchelya, both recently promoted, had no immediate desires. Among them, the "Star above" Garchelya specifically intended to lease the cross, hoping to eliminate the lingering contamination within the "Craftsman" Charf's body. However, the journal entries she has gathered all stem from the "Mysterious Queen," and thus she needs answers in return—something she currently lacks that would appeal to the " Fool" gentleman. Then, try to gather other great emperors' diaries from the sea... As Gardeleia made her quiet decision, "Moon" Emlin thought for a moment and turned to "The Magician," saying, "Madam, I might need to rent that travel journal for the next two weeks." "No problem." "The Magician" Folshe had originally intended to pay "Moon" Emlin to enhance the extraordinary abilities—such as the "Deep Seal"—into the magic book, and now, naturally, she was very willing, meaning she would not only save money but also receive a bonus. As this thought came to her, she added, "Please try to avoid recording the 'Full Moon.'" If the "Leyman's Travel Journal" were filled mostly with "Full Moon" effects, she would be deeply troubled. As "Moon" Emlin nodded in agreement, "The Turner" Alje seemed to be thinking, interjecting, "Is the action of the Bloodline's Rose School's key members about to begin?" "Yes." "Emlyn wasn't going to hide it at all," he said. "Once the plan is finalized, I'll ask everyone to share their insights." The first to respond wasn't the 'Card of the Tower,' but rather Germain Spaulo, the 'World,' who sat silently at the very bottom of the bronze long table. Did he have an interest in this? Not only had Emlyn, the 'Moon,' recognized it, but even the others, no matter how slow to grasp, now shared this awareness. As the 'Tower,' the 'Hermit,' and the 'Justice' all agreed to assist Emlyn with the vampire's strategic plan, the Tarot Council's transaction phase came to a close, and the exchange phase began. Germain Spaulo, the 'World,' sat up slightly and turned to Leonard, the 'Star': "Could you ask him if he's seen the second 'Tablet of Desecration'?" 'Tablet of Desecration'? The members, including Justice Audrey, instantly recognized this as an unusual term. A wave of surprise and astonishment passed through them: The second 'Tablet of Desecration'? Mr. Star isn't as simple as he seems! He even knows someone who has seen one of the most important items in the mythological legend! Beyond his roles as a church member and an official extraordinary, he has other secrets! That's why he's able to join the Tarot Circle... Mr. Star, Leonard himself was surprised that Crane would request such a thing. After a moment of silence, he exhaled and said, "Alright."
