Chapter 626: The Smooth First Day

Phew... What exactly are Amelius and Austin Levet plotting that they drew a warning from the Twilight Hermit Order? If it isn't a pivotal point that can truly change the era and influence the course of history, this ancient and secretive organization wouldn't get involved, even without revealing their identities... Standing at the edge of the magnificent castle in his dream, Klein looked thoughtfully at the spot where the blurry figure had just disappeared.

Amidst the rush of thoughts, he suddenly realized something and was no longer so sure of his previous guess: The matter General Amelius and his brother were plotting might not necessarily affect the trends of the era!

While the Twilight Hermit Order only interferes with such major issues, as the leader of a secret organization, Klein clearly understood that, apart from fulfilling its own mission and philosophy, such an organization also had mutual assistance between its members.

From Emperor Roselle's diary, it can be seen that the Twilight Hermit Order had members from different fields, different statuses, and different Sequences. Apart from those who fanatically believe in the Original Creator, waiting for the twilight to descend and the true gods to awaken, the rest all had their own interests. Under such circumstances, as long as the organizer didn't strictly control it from the beginning, internal commissions were bound to appear.

"Perhaps the matter Austin Levet is planning only affects a certain member of the Twilight Hermit Order, who detected it in advance and made an internal commission, asking another member to use the 'trend of the times' as an excuse to warn Amelius Levet… "Following this line of logic, the hidden implications are somewhat interesting… Given the prowess of the Twilight Hermit Order, only Sequence 4 'Weaver' Amelius would be a target that could be eliminated without too much difficulty. I even suspect they could dispatch more than three Angels, bypassing the seven major churches… "So, why not just make a move and instead come with a warning in advance?

"In Backlund, if an Angel were to truly appear, who knows, one of the True Gods might descend. That's why the Twilight Hermit Order had to use a more roundabout and subtle method to deal with Duke Nigen. But this is Ouroboros Island, where not even high-Sequence powerhouses are permanently stationed! "Is the warning because the Twilight Hermit Order values secrecy, doesn't want to expose itself, and tries to avoid drastic measures? Or does the member who made the internal commission not want to see Amelius die? For 'him', this general is quite useful, and he's unwilling to give him up, even if the other party might participate in actions disadvantageous to 'him'? "Then 'his' identity in the real world can be narrowed down to a few circles…"

Klein made bold assumptions but had no way to verify them, so he had to temporarily set this matter aside and put it out of his mind.

Anyway, it was General Amelius who attracted the warning from the Twilight Hermit Order; it has nothing to do with me… As long as I don't do anything and don't get involved these few days, I can smoothly make it to the end of the commission. What happens in the future has nothing to do with me! At my current level, I am still far from investigating the Twilight Hermit Order; I'm not even qualified to pry into anything… Klein suppressed his inner thoughts and instead turned his attention to his own Tarot Club.

"Ha, I've noticed a problem. Other secret organizations focus on fulfilling their own mission and philosophy, with mutual assistance between members mixed in. But our Tarot Club is amazing—it only has mutual commissions, no mission or philosophy… No, in the eyes of some members, there is a mission and philosophy. For instance, classmate 'Moon' believes that this is an organization born to save the world…" "The Fool" Klein chuckled self-deprecatingly and withdrew from the dream.

He rubbed off his fake eye, pushed his real eye back into place. The movements were very smooth, but he paused midway.

"That wasn't just a simple dream entry!" Recalling the previous moment, Klein frowned slightly.

Because the power first tried to force him into slumber!

"And I was already asleep at the time, so why would he still do that? The Captain once said that a 'Nightmare' can directly see dreams; he couldn't have made such a mistake… So, the visitor just now didn't use Beyonder powers akin to a 'Nightmare,' but another method… Spirit World positioning? Or, after knowing my location, directly influencing my mind body through the great ocean of the collective subconscious described by Miss Daly?

"Hmm… I lean more towards the second option. Only that can explain why, even though I had already regained my rationality, I couldn't break free from the dream. Emperor Roselle also mentioned in his diary that the organization he participated in, suspected to be the 'Twilight Hermit Order,' conducted gatherings through a real dream that covered the continent, a real 'dream'…"

Klein nodded and laughed silently in his sigh.

"General Amelius surely didn't expect the Twilight Hermit Order's warning. "It's a good thing he hired me. If it were anyone else, they would have been exposed just now! I can say I've lived up to the 'Ninth Law' charm."

…………

Within the circular tower of the City of Silver, inside the room belonging to Chief Colin Iliad.

Derrick Berg, who had been summoned, once again saw that "Demon Hunter" with white hair and old scars on his cheeks, feeling somewhat uneasy in his heart.

After he finished his greetings, Colin looked him up and down and said: "You've advanced?"

"Yes, I am already Sequence 7 'Sun Priest'." Derrick had already registered this, so he certainly wouldn't conceal it now.

Colin's deep, weathered light blue eyes looked away, and he asked casually: "Do you have the subsequent potion formula?"

The earliest Derrick would have directly answered "No," but now, he was accustomed to thinking a bit before speaking.

If he said "No" and later advanced without the corresponding experience to support it, it would certainly be confirmed that he was problematic. But if he answered "Yes," the Chief might ask him to hand it over in exchange for items and begin cultivating more "Sun" pathway Beyonders. This would undoubtedly prove that he was lying… Derrick mulled it over and said sincerely:
