The Sun, Derrick Berg, was stunned for a moment upon hearing this. He clearly hadn't expected Miss Justice to purchase these items from him, which surprised him. He then nodded and said, "I can, but what is a gold pound?"

Huh? Mr. Sun doesn't know what a gold pound is… That's right, he said before that City of Silver couldn't get any response from gods other than Mr. Fool. It seems they really are in a very special place. Maybe their money has a different name…" Justice, Audrey, thought to herself, proactively explaining, "A gold pound is the currency we use here, but you probably don't need it there… Do you want any Beyonder ingredients or anything else?"

The Sun, Derrick Berg, didn't dwell on it after hearing this, as he understood the concept of currency. He began to think about what he should ask for.

The materials needed to concoct the 'Bard' potion aren't hard to find. He can gather them quickly after returning, so there's no need to buy them here… What he lacks now… That's right, a weapon!

The Sun, Derrick Berg, his eyes lit up, and he said, "I want a weapon, one that suits me and can enhance my combat ability."

After a pause, he added, "Miss Justice, like Mr. Chariot, if you have any information you want to know, you can tell me in advance, and I'll look it up in the records after I return."

A weapon, hmm, I wonder what kind of weapon Mr. Sun would like… Justice, Audrey, thought while nodding happily, "I will find a weapon that meets your requirements as soon as possible."

Well, I'll ask Rudy and Fors if there are any Beyonder gatherings recently.

—Let me mention here that although the Tingen incident was completely changed by Lin Ruo during this period, and Mr. A even came to Tingen, almost getting caught by the Storm Old Pigeons. But he still escaped after all, and after escaping back to Backlund, he restarted the gatherings he had been hosting.

And Justice, Audrey, although she also obtained the Spectator potion formula through Lin Ruo's alias on the surface, she didn't mind joining a few more Beyonder gatherings. She also met Fors and Xio, and joined the gathering hosted by Mr. A under the guidance of these two.

"By the way, Miss Justice, how will you give me the weapon?" The Sun, Derrick Berg, suddenly thought of this crucial question. After all, he had basically determined that the other members of the Tarot Club shouldn't be citizens of City of Silver. And the Forsaken Land is not like the outside world. The harsh environment there means that even exploring outside the city is very dangerous, with the possibility of dying at any time. Under such circumstances, it's naturally impossible for two people to meet in the real world and hand over the weapon.

Hearing this question, Justice, Audrey, who had always been very much like a senior, immediately explained considerately, "I can first give the weapon to Mr. Fool through a sacrifice, and then Mr. Fool will bestow the weapon upon you."

The method of sacrifice… The Sun, Derrick Berg, was stunned for a moment, then nodded in realization. Because he already believed that Mr. Fool was a genuine god, the Sun, Derrick Berg, although still a little unbelievable, wasn't too surprised. He only then inquired about the process of the sacrifice and bestowal rituals.

After all, although the processes of the sacrifice and bestowal rituals of each god are similar, the details are often different, so the Sun, Derrick Berg, naturally had to ask clearly.

And after Justice, Audrey, told the Sun, Derrick Berg, how to perform the sacrifice and bestowal rituals to Mr. Fool, Lin Ruo also timely threw the parchment in his hand to Justice, Audrey, and said, "I have memorized the contents on this. If Miss Justice doesn't mind, just look at this one, so Mr. Sun doesn't have to write it again."

Hearing Lin Ruo's words, Justice, Audrey, quickly took the parchment and began to browse. Originally able to maintain the "Spectator" state, her expression gradually became richer as she read the contents of the parchment.

It was really that the content on the parchment was too unexpected for Justice, Audrey. What a place abandoned by the gods, what no daytime but only night. The history of City of Silver really refreshed Justice, Audrey's understanding, letting her know for the first time that there is such a place in the world.

In addition, the Sun's description of the City of Silver Creator also made Justice, Audrey, quite novel, because this is different from the records of the Creator in the mythological stories she knew.

Her rich reading expression naturally fell into the eyes of the Hanged Man, Alger, opposite her.

Alger:…

So now only I am ignorant of City of Silver?

If Justice, Audrey, previously had a feeling of being excluded, then now the Hanged Man, Alger, had this feeling.

But the difference is that Justice, Audrey, can quickly figure it out and use money to break this "barrier", while the Hanged Man, Alger, obviously doesn't have any extra money to buy information from the Sun, Derrick Berg.

It's okay, I can wait and find a way to understand these from the Sun later…" The Hanged Man, Alger, could only comfort himself in the end.

And after Justice, Audrey, finished reading the contents on the parchment, because no one else wanted to trade, they naturally entered the daily intelligence exchange session.

Justice, Audrey, first shared with everyone the news that Loen was about to promote the selection of administrative officials through public examinations, and informed the Hanged Man, Alger, of the information about a transaction they had conducted before, and asked him to purchase the materials for the Telepathist potion.

Finally, Justice, Audrey, out of curiosity, asked about the information of Mr. A, whom she had met at an Beyonder gathering before.

Regarding this, Lin Ruo naturally gave the answer, that is, Mr. A is a member of the Aurora Order, and is the envoy of the Aurora Order.

After that, after a round of intelligence exchange between several people, the Hanged Man, Alger, considered it for a moment and said, "Mr. Chariot, Miss Justice, I have a commission, and I want to ask for your help. Of course, I will pay the corresponding remuneration." He didn't mention the Sun's name, after all, the Hanged Man, Alger, knew that given the Sun's situation, the possibility of him contributing in his next commission was not high.

"What commission?" Lin Ruo said with a smile, already anticipating what the Hanged Man, Alger, was going to say next.

Justice, Audrey, was also excitedly waiting for the Hanged Man, Alger's, narration.

The Hanged Man, Alger, then said, "I received information that Vice Admiral Hurricane Qilangos has secretly landed and sneaked into Backlund. I don't know what he wants to do. I hope you can help me find his whereabouts. As for the follow-up matters, you don't need to take risks."

Vice Admiral Hurricane Qilangos?

Hearing this name, more than one person present naturally reacted. Justice, Audrey, who had always been very curious about the extraordinary world and had long wanted to contact these legendary figures of the extraordinary world, immediately became interested, while the Fool, Klein, sitting at the head of the bronze long table, found it a bit funny.

Klein didn't forget that Lin Ruo was going to hunt Vice Admiral Hurricane Qilangos.

Let me remind them, being targeted by Lin Ruo, Vice Admiral Hurricane Qilangos won't live for more than three days. I can't let Miss Justice and Mr. Hanged Man work in vain, and it's not good if they get involved in the battle…

So, when the Hanged Man, Alger, was about to introduce the situation of Qilangos to the Chariot and Justice, he suddenly heard a light "knock, knock" sound. His pupils shrank, he immediately realized something and looked at Mr. Fool, and heard the other party chuckle:

"There is no need to look for Qilangos's whereabouts, he will soon cease to exist."
