Global Abyss: My Skills Can Enhance Infinitely

Chapter 476 The Value of Intelligence



"Did you get everything clear? No issues?"

"Yeah, but I can't tell you because just mentioning this organization by name will cause them to perceive it. Even thinking about it too much will do the same. This is written in one of the Emperor's diary pages I got."

Tao Yu's words made Klein feel uncomfortable like a cat, but then an idea struck him.

"Maybe, we can ask Mr. Fool for help?"

"Right, Mr. Fool might be able to shield us during our Tarot Club meetings. Maybe I can ask him. Oh, and I can also ask that old grandpa I caught."

No sooner had Tao Yu thought of this than he began to pray, but Mr. Fool didn't respond to him.

This made Klein beside him frown intensely.

You really are action-oriented, just starting like that...

"Mr. Fool might be busy, I'll ask the old grandpa."

As Tao Yu waited for a reply, he started to fleece Medici again...

...

"Twilight Hermit Order... Have you come into contact with them yet? If nothing unusual had happened, it should have been the Child of God, Adam, the King of Angels from the audience's route, at least when I died."

Medici's expression became complex as he spoke.

Soon after, his side mouths started mocking.

"Yes, it was him who tricked us back then." Experience more content on My Virtual Library Empire

"He ended everything in one fell swoop, helping Tudor cross the path to ascendancy."

Hearing this, Tao Yu was slightly shocked.

Even though this Adam had not yet become a god, it was surprising that he had started planning for others to become gods and succeeded so soon?

Was he already a god two thousand years later?

"Seeing that he is still advancing the historical process, he must be in the middle of the ritual. Yet here, it's special because casually mentioning his name would otherwise be perceived by him. He might even come out of curiosity to check."

Medici said somewhat mockingly.

This place is where praying to the True Creator is futile; he had even seen the Creator's Divinity being temporarily pushed into fleecing, even asking him how to use it.

So, Adam would not likely perceive this place.

But...

Elsewhere, that could not be said for sure; if you deliberately enter the audience's set-up, such unexpected script-outside characters might just attract curiosity...

...

"Adam... Child of God... A coincidence?"

Tao Yu was slightly concerned about the name Adam.

Given the instances of transmigrations, and more than one, it faintly made Tao Yu wonder—couldn't that supposed Ancient Sun God also be a transmigrator?

As Tao Yu thought about this, he also carried his thoughts back home.

At that time, the 'gas explosion' across the street had been cordoned off, with policemen and gas company personnel around, plus some mysterious-looking figures who likely belonged to the organization of extraordinaries.

And now even protests had started on Minsk Street.

"What exactly happened? Twice in such a short time!"

"Did you inspect properly? How will you compensate?"

"Damn it."

"..."

Watching the nearby residents and landlords jumping up in anger, Tao Yu and Klein kept their heads down as they walked.

Well, you can't blame us; we are the victims...

"There might be people from the Church of the Night coming to find me; you better go back first."

Tao Yu warned Klein, who nodded in response.

After all, Tao Yu was an informant for the Church of the Night and had connections with the last 'gas explosion', conveniently living nearby, so it was quite normal for them to drop by and casually ask.

Tao Yu's prediction wasn't wrong.

Shortly after he returned home, he experienced a slight haziness from dreams, a nightmare path of the Church of the Night.

However, the other side was not aggressive and actively kept the dreamscape lucid. Then, Leonard emerged from the dream walking through a door.

"There's been another explosion near you."

Leonard said with a bit of a headache.

"It's not my fault, I don't know anything about it."

"Recently, this involved a serial killer spree. According to our current clues, it appears that the killer is dead."

Leonard sighed.

"If you aren't aware, just be careful. Based on your information, the Church has dug up something. Those rats in the shadows might take action sooner, and we will also close our net soon. Don't expose yourself, or you might be killed out of vengeance."

Leonard seriously reminded Tao Yu.

"Okay, I'll be careful. If it really comes down to it, I'll change my name and leave Becland."

"That's an option. If you want, the Church can help you, even providing a new identity."

"If I need it, I will contact you."

Then, the dream shattered, and Leonard left the place...

Monday afternoon at three o'clock, the Tarot Club was punctually convened, and this time there was a newcomer!

However, this newcomer seemed a bit odd to Tao Yu. Although the person appeared to disguise themselves, that familiar stench of dried fish was unmistakable—it was Fors, the salty fish writer...

"This is Miss Magician..."

The Fool made the introduction.

As several new members had joined recently, everyone took the expansion of the Tarot Club in stride.

However, this newcomer wasn't from a secretive area like 'The Sun', nor did they give a reliable impression like 'Destiny' and Mr. World.

But there must also be some profound intention from Mr. Fool!

"Mr. Fool, I've obtained a page of a diary."

This time, Tao Yu brought out a diary page he had obtained from someone suspected to be Emperor Roselle's daughter.

"Very good."

"Currently I have no needs, but I would like to propose an additional secret of sufficient value to exchange for your intervention when necessary."

Tao Yu was casting a preventative spell, which made Klein want to throw away the diary page.

Intervene?!

I've been riding your coattails, okay!

"I won't intervene lightly."

Mr. Fool gently reminded.

"Of course, it depends on your will. But rest assured, the secret will definitely interest you."

Klein was curious, even wanting to know beforehand but he knew he was unable to offer much substantial help, so he didn't ask further, only sighed inwardly.

If it were like Miss Magician, dealing with a full moon whisper that could be countered using a high position in the gray mist, he could provide help.

But if it were asking him to fight against the True Creator or the Primeval Witch—thank you very much...

Not only Klein, but everyone present was also deeply curious about the 'secret' Tao Yu mentioned.

It seemed quite significant.

Because Miss Justice, Audrey, still owed Mr. Fool a remuneration, she took the initiative to speak,

"I'm also curious about this secret. Can I pay in Gold Pounds? Depending on the value, I can offer up to ten thousand."

Ten thousand!

Fors, who had just arrived, felt dizzy hearing this.

How can you say that so easily!

Not just rookie Fors, everyone else felt the same.

Even Mr. Fool was shocked, but managed to maintain his composure behind the Fool's mask.

"Sorry, it's a message that even a million Gold Pounds can't buy."

Tao Yu himself had so much cash; even though he had been recklessly spending and purchasing a lot of extraordinary items and materials and had laundered quite a bit, it hadn't noticeably decreased.

And Tao Yu spoke with considerable boldness.

Only Klein and Audrey could vaguely sense that he might not be boasting!

A message that even a million Gold Pounds can't buy?

What could that be...

Even more curious...

"Well, if such information can't be bought, can I exchange it for some information about the Seven Gods and the True Creator? I'd use the knowledge I have in exchange."

Lastly, it was 'The Sun' colleague who was more practical, as their expedition team had discovered a temple of the God Statue of the 'True Creator'...
