Mystery: I can change things in books

Chapter 286 Three-party transaction
Chris clearly remembered that he had asked the tree messenger "Who is Frank Lehman and how did he die" just after he summoned him.

The tree man said it didn't know.

But now the tree man says that Walhar Gould killed him.

Upon hearing this question, the tree man leaned forward and backward, its branches trembled violently, and it answered tremblingly:

"The last letter Frank Lehman gave me was to Walha Gould, and after that..."

After that, you became "homeless" and were hunted in the spirit world?
Chris sneered, and suddenly realized something.

Could it be that the jellyfish creatures that chased the tree men at the beginning were instructed by Walha Gould?

After he killed Frank Lehman, he wanted to silence even Lehman's messenger from the spirit world?

Chris leaned back in his chair, thinking to himself that the other party was worthy of being one of the Ten Pillars, and he was indeed ruthless.

He nodded, looked at the tree man, and asked:
"Can you now locate Walha Gould?"

The tree man shook the branches and leaves, looking hesitant: "Okay. But..."

"I'll go into the spirit world with you," Chris said.

As a spirit world creature that signed a contract and became a messenger, it was difficult to terminate it on its own during the message delivery stage. Therefore, Chris did not decide to let the tree man risk delivering the message.

He followed the tree man into the spirit world, and under the guidance of the tree man, he successfully came to the position in the spirit world that accurately corresponds to reality.

It was a ship under sail, heading for Port Behrens.

Originally, it was impossible to see reality clearly in the spirit world, but Chris had certain special abilities in the spirit world and could sense some things in reality.

For example, he now accurately feels that in reality, there is a piece of "land" that is different from others, and it is moving.

That's a ship.

However, due to the characteristics of the spirit world that does not distinguish between time and space, Chris could not estimate the exact distance of the ship from Behrens Port. He could only see that it was sailing towards the port.

There are also many strange spiritual creatures in the spiritual world. Chris also felt the gaze from the dark place, but those gazes disappeared as soon as they touched him.

After confirming the location of Walha Gould, Chris spread his spirituality, stopped the tree people, and then left the spiritual world and returned to reality.

He did not go to the port immediately. According to the timetable, the latest ship arriving at Behrens Port would not dock until tonight.

Now I am going to attend a Tarot session.

Chris opened his pocket watch and silently watched the hands move.

At three o'clock sharp, the crimson tide surged out on time.

The aura of the "hermit" is getting stronger. Could it be that he has been promoted?

Klein sat at the top of the long bronze table and silently observed everyone. He discovered that the aura of the "Hermit" was different from before.

But he could clearly realize that his spiritual vision was somewhat hindered.

After a simple greeting, Klein began to read Russell's diary that he had received from this Tarot session.

This time, Russell's diary mentioned the phenomenon of Extraordinary characteristics attracting each other, allowing Klein to confirm that the "law of aggregation of Extraordinary characteristics" does exist.

In addition, he also got clues about the second "blasphemous card" and knew that Emperor Russell disguised it as a bookmark.

If I'm lucky, I can find this "blasphemous card"... Klein thought silently, closed the diary, spoke softly, and announced that everyone would start communicating.

During this period, Klein manipulated the "world" and expressed his need for "Evil Black Panther Spinal Fluid" and "Elf Spring Marrow Crystal".

Chris knew that in the past week, "The Fool" had killed Lanervus, digested the "Joker" potion, and was now collecting the Sequence 7 potion.

In the original timeline, "The World" told "The Hanged Man" the secret of Sequence 0, and in exchange for this knowledge, the two materials were obtained.

But now, in this timeline, Chris has directly shared the secret of Sequence 0 with everyone for free before, which makes it impossible for Klein to reach a deal with "The Hanged Man" through this.

Hey, "The Hanged Man" said that the pirate party held a few days ago was very grand, and there might be the potion ingredients I want. However, I don't have anything to trade with him, and he doesn't want the incomplete formula of the demigods of the "Sun" path. ...

Klein tilted his head, held his chin, and manipulated the "world". He suddenly felt bored.

His eyes slowly swept across everyone's faces, and suddenly an idea came to him: Otherwise, let "the world" speak and ask for help from "the hermit"?

Klein turned his gaze to the "Hermit" and saw him sitting quietly in his place.

At this time, Chris was also muttering in his heart, why "the world" hasn't asked him for help yet.

He waited for a few more seconds, seeing that "The World" was still silent, and finally decided to speak:
"The Hanged Man, The World, I want to make a deal with you."

"Oh? I'd like to hear the details." Alger's eyes lit up.

Klein breathed a sigh of relief, raised the corners of his mouth, immediately controlled the "world", and spoke in a deep voice:
"'Hermit,' what do you want?"

Chris glanced at Alger and said:
"I know the main material formula of 'Wind Blessed One', 'The Hanged Man', I tell you this information, the reward is to give 'World' the two materials he needs."

In fact, Chris has other ideas - he can directly transform these materials through "changing objects in books".

But in this case, it would be too easy and would not be conducive to the growth of the protagonist group members.

Therefore, he decided to test other people's thoughts before deciding whether to help in this way.

Several people thought for a moment and figured it out:
In this tripartite transaction, "The Hermit" was the one who paid in vain, and "The World" got the two materials he craved for free.

Klein resisted the urge to thank the "Hermit" and maintained the cool and capable personality of "The World":

"'Hermit', what do you want from me? I will not accept your gift of impermanence."

Chris wanted to ask him to help find the location of Samantha Gross, but then he remembered that Klein was still in Backlund, so he could only give up and chuckled twice:
"Haha, just remember that you owe me a favor."

The World nodded and thanked him briefly.

While the two were talking, Alger was thinking.

The total price of the "spinal fluid of the Evil Patterned Black Panther" and the "medulla crystal of the Elf Fountain" is thousands of pounds. Thousands of pounds are exchanged for information on the main ingredients of the "Wind Blessed One" potion...

Well, you can find the auxiliary materials later, but the most urgent thing is to find the main materials...

After Alger made his choice, he also said that he could participate in this transaction.

"it is good."

"The Fool" nodded slightly, waved his hand, and kindly pulled "The Hanged Man" and "The Hermit" into a private communication environment.
