125 River Water

After reflecting on her life, Alice began to organize the knowledge in the potion.

Although she had learned from "Cassandra" that the biggest problem might lie with "The Prophet", Alice still learned about the ability introduction for comparison.

The main abilities of Chaos Walker are only one domain and one displacement. Alice glanced at it and found that the notes were also deleted.

This was not surprising, for Alice stopped thinking about these things when she found that there was nothing else worthy of attention.

The "prophet" characteristics are already in hand, and there are more than one. Alice is only two things away from Sequence 2. One is to digest the "Chaos Walker" potion, and the other is to take a portion of the water from the River of Destiny.

And the river water...

Alice reached out her hand, rolled up her sleeves, and looked at her arm in deep thought.

Alice had been troubled by the location of the River of Destiny. She suspected that there might be a River of Destiny in the spiritual world - it might be the real river, but more likely it was a projection. In any case, the river water she needed for promotion should be enough from the spiritual world.

She had also been troubled by how to get river water, but this problem was actually easy to solve. The unknown skin brought back from Richaud was a good container in Alice's opinion.

But after repeatedly using "Restart" and "Loop of Fate", and repeatedly coming into contact with the River of Fate during promotions, Alice gradually came to another guess.

——Can the blood of the "Mercury Snake" be considered river water in a sense?

As one of the few outliers among the extraordinary people, Alice has a say in this regard. Especially when using the abilities of the "Mercury Snake" and even the "Prophet", Alice has a clearer perception.

The angels on the path of "destiny" seem to have become part of the long river of destiny.

Moreover, Alice actually has a more powerful evidence for this point... You know, the flesh and blood of the Beyonders can replace auxiliary materials to a certain extent. Since the auxiliary material of the "Prophet" potion is the water of the Long River of Destiny, then the blood of the mythical creatures of the "Destiny" path is probably also equivalent to the water of the Long River of Destiny to a certain extent!

There is only one reason why Alice tried so hard to prove this point.

——Will Auceptin's blood is still on Sefirah Castle.

However, it is still necessary to confirm this... Alice tilted her head and decided to go back to ask Arrodes.

Anyway, it's not urgent... No, if I need to get water from the river, it's still a bit urgent... Anyway, I'll ask later, and now I'll study the role-playing method first...

No, wait, why am I in such a hurry to deal with this matter now? It's still a long time before Klein is promoted to an angel. There's plenty of time for me to delay!

Alice, who had just sat up, lay down again.

It was time for the next Tarot meeting. Alice responded politely to Miss Justice's familiar greeting and noticed that there was one more person at the Tarot meeting.

It was a woman, and looked even like a young girl. Through the gray mist, Alice could see her undeveloped facial features and messy, rough shoulder-length blond hair.

She was only 1.5 meters tall and had an aura that Alice didn't like, which reminded her of Admiral Amyrius.

Alice frowned and calmly looked away, but couldn't help but steal a glance.

…Will she still grow taller?

Perhaps because her gaze was too eye-catching and she didn't know how to restrain herself, at the end of the greeting process of "Justice" Audrey, the other party finally set his sights on her.

Alice blinked, then looked away as if nothing had happened and looked at Klein.

Perhaps thinking it was about time, Klein also happened to introduce:

"This is 'Judgment'."

Alice then turned her head back to look at the Judge Hugh and asked curiously,

"Will you grow taller? I mean, you don't look very old... Are you an adult?"

Audrey, who had already determined the identity of "Judgment", was silent for a moment and then chose to keep silent.

After hearing Alice's question, Magician Fors turned to look at Judge Xio. She had already introduced the Tarot Club to her friend in advance and was not worried that the other party would not recognize Miss Destiny. However, Magician Fors was very worried about her friend's mental health.

——Although Fors suspected, Miss Fate had tried her best to be polite.

"Judgment" Xio was obviously not happy about this question, but she did not jump up on the spot like "Moon" Emlyn. She just responded calmly:

"I am an adult."

"Ah?" Alice looked her over again and exclaimed in surprise, "If I hadn't known that your sequence was not high, I would have thought that you also became an angel at a young age."

"Judgement" Hugh didn't really want to talk.

The Fool did not speak to stop the idle chatter. Audrey, the Justice, took a look and could not contain her curiosity. She asked Alice,

"Ms. Fate, do you mean that angels will not grow taller?"

"Of course not," Alice answered without hesitation, "Angels can grow and even age - but generally speaking, angels have their own ways to extend their lifespan or change their growth cycle."

After a pause, she turned to Audrey and added,

"For example, if I wanted, I could keep my body's age fixed at my current age, or even turn back into a fetus...

"However, even without relevant means, the life cycle of angels will be greatly extended. At least based on the life scale of mortals, it is difficult to see our growth."

"I see..." Audrey nodded thoughtfully and did not ask any more questions.

Alice turned her head and looked at the Hermit Cattleya. After a few seconds, Cattleya stood up and saluted to the head of the bronze table.

"Sorry, Mr. Fool.

"Still no new diaries received this week."

Why haven't you... Alice turned her head to look at the "Hermit" Cattleya, frowned and said:

"Are you sure Bernadette is okay?"

"…Although I'm not sure about the Queen's current situation, she is still safe." The Hermit Cattleya turned around and saluted Alice.

Alice didn't ask any more questions, and Cattleya sat down at the Fool's signal, and the Tarot Club's transaction officially began.

The first to speak was Justice Audrey. After looking around, she said carefully,

"I don't want anything."

The Hermit Cattleya, the Sun Derrick, the Moon Emlyn, and the Magician Fors were all ready to be promoted, and there was no need for them at this time.

The same is true for Alger, the "Hanged Man" who is still in the process of digesting it. Leonard, the "Star", does have a need, but he has already made a purchase at the last Tarot Meeting. As for Alice... you can't expect her to buy the water of the River of Destiny or the extraordinary characteristics of the "Mercury Serpent" here, right?

At this moment, the "magician" Fors glanced at the silent Xio beside him, and took the initiative to look across and said:

"Mr. 'Hanged Man', I have a material that I would like to entrust that 'craftsman' to make into a magical item."

Alice thought of Sharf who was still with Cattleya, the Hermit. She looked at Alger, the Hanged Man, who shook his head and said:

"That 'craftsman' was controlled by some members of the Rose School who believed in the 'Original Moon'. This is the little I know about it. The follow-up has been handed over to Ms. 'Hermit' for handling."

The Hermit Cattleya slightly turned her body and cast her eyes towards the Magician:

"This question is a bit complicated. I suggest you wait another week or two. I can't promise anything, but I can say that by then someone should be able to help you make a magical item."

"Ms. Hermit," Alice raised her hand, "Can't I hand over the craftsman?"

After two seconds of silence, Cattleya asked, "What do you want to do?"

Alice tapped the table and answered, "You can understand that I want to turn him into a magical object."

The Hermit Cattleya was silent for a moment, then replied without changing her expression:

"Sorry, Miss Destiny, I need to confirm something, so it may not be convenient for the time being..."

Ellie shook her head nonchalantly and said,

"It doesn't matter. I thought of this possibility. I didn't plan to keep him anyway.

"You can change it. The specific requirements... You can talk to 'World' later."

The Hermit Cattleya responded to Alice's words and then looked at the World. After a brief thought, Klein controlled the World and replied:

"I'll have to think about it.

"If you need help dealing with that 'craftsman', you can come to me."

The Hermit Cattleya nodded slightly and said:

"Okay, if I can't handle it by then, I will ask you for help through Mr. Fool."

No one else spoke, and the Tarot Club entered a free exchange session. Without waiting for Alger, the Hanged Man, to ask, Derrick, the Sun, raised his hand and said,

"I have returned to the City of Silver. The Chief told me that after a while, we will begin a preliminary exploration of the Giant King's Court.

"Is he asking me to hurry up and become a 'Priest of Light'?"

"Are you going in?" Alice asked in surprise.

"Yes…" "Sun" Derrick looked at Alice with expectant eyes, as if he had just remembered something. "Miss Fate, what do you think of the Giant King's Court…?"

"I don't know," Alice spread her hands. "I went around it and didn't go through it at all."

After a pause, she turned to Leonard, who looked stunned, and kindly reminded him:

"The 'Giant King's Court' is in the 'God-Forsaken Land'."

Leonard's expression was even more shocked. Alice looked at him and said:

"How is it? Isn't it great?

"I've also been to the 'Forsaken Land of the Gods'~"

"Ah?" Leonard's eyes gradually became confused.

Alice didn't plan to continue the topic. She smiled smugly and ignored it. Seeing this, Alger nodded and said:

"That's right.

"Exploring the Giant King's Court is a dangerous thing. He hopes that you can grow up quickly to a level that can compete with the Shepherd Elder."

"Sun" Derrick nodded, not quite understanding.

"I see. Thank you, Mr. The Hanged Man."

He immediately talked about what he saw and heard in the ancient city of Noth, which made members such as "Star" Leonard and "Judgment" Hugh stunned, not understanding how such a strange state and atmosphere came about.

Alice's expression became more and more strange as she listened. She turned her head to look at Klein and exchanged glances with him through the gray fog.

At this time, Judgement Xio glanced at the World and took the initiative to speak, showing his goodwill:

"MI9 is ​​currently investigating the background of Gehrman Sparrow."

When they heard the name Gehrman Sparrow, all the members on both sides of the long bronze table turned their eyes to the "World" sitting at the bottom. No one spoke, no one interrupted, and even Alice fell silent, waiting for Klein to speak.

The World asked in a hoarse voice, "What clues does MI9 have?"

The "Trial" Xio had no shame in betraying MI9 and answered frankly,

"They have determined that Gehrman Sparrow's identity is a forgery, and the source is in Backlund."

This seems to be true... Alice blinked and looked at the "world". She heard him chuckle and say:

"Don't worry about it."

He is very confident in his fake identity... Alice turned her head and looked at "Judge" Xio thoughtfully, and asked curiously:

"Are there any bounty missions? Where can I pick them up? How much is the bounty?"

"Judgment" Xio did not speak, but looked at "the world".

"The World" glanced at Alice with cold eyes. After a few breaths, Alice tactfully lowered her head and began to pretend to be dead.

At this time, Justice" Audrey pondered for a moment and asked:

"Mr. World, will you return to Backlund in the future? Will you still use the identity of Dwayne Dantès?"

As a qualified "psychologist", she certainly would not inform other members of the Tarot Club about the psychological problems in the "world". She just wanted to make sure whether they would go to the "Loen Charity Student Aid Fund" again. In that way, she could get close contact with them in the real world and do a better follow-up consultation.

She brought up Dwayne Dantès without disguising it because all the original party members knew about this matter, and Mr. "Star" was obviously familiar with Mr. "World", and Hugh had been informed in advance by Fors.

Ah... Hearing what Miss Justice said, Leonard could hardly believe his ears and was a little dazed for a moment.

Is Klein Moretti equal to Dwayne Dantes?

Alice noticed Leonard's abnormality. She glanced over and thought of Pales on her body. She asked thoughtfully:

"Oh, right, He should be able to tell... How did that person introduce Dwayne Dantès to you?

"Well, maybe me too? Did He say anything to you?"

Leonard's expression suddenly stiffened. He ignored the first half of Alice's words and looked at her face covered by the gray fog. He remembered what Pales said, "the illegitimate daughter of the night and the fool." (End of this chapter)
