Chapter 136: Psychological Alchemy Will Do Many Evils

With a click, Old Blue opened his silver pocket watch and said to Klein after identifying it:

"We were teleported here, so we are about ten minutes ahead of them, right? Well, during this time, do you have anything you want to ask?"

I have so many questions to ask! Klein looked at the butlers and servants who completely ignored the three outsiders and felt terrified. Is this the psychological hint that Old Blue just mentioned? Someone sat next to him and didn't care at all! "Audience"! He couldn't help but ask:
"Mr. Blue, have you captured Qilingus? What are you going to do next? What can I do?
"Um, this is Freni...Ms.?" This lady called herself a secretary, and her tone was frivolous... Could she be in that kind of relationship with Old Blue? No way? Old Blue always called her Little Freni, but it might not be polite for him to call her that... Klein felt a little confused.

Old Blue sat casually at the dining table and said to Klein:
"Just call her Ms. Freni first. Well, you can also call her Little Freni. It was especially appropriate a few days ago.

"I said before that Qi Lingos is just a small figure. There are many people and many things behind him...

"If you want to know, I'll tell you. Do you want to listen?"

Klein looked at the gentle old man and immediately pulled over a chair, sitting beside him and listening carefully, showing with his actions that he wanted to listen! He really wanted to listen!

Old Blue placed his simple cane flat on his lap and nodded.
"Xiao Fu, you'd better listen to this, as this involves the mission you will be playing in the future...

"Qilingus is a pirate who has committed many evil deeds. Pirates should not stay on land for long. Unfamiliar areas will bring him unknown dangers.

“But even though his whereabouts were discovered and he was hunted throughout the city by the three major churches, the pirate still did not flee. Instead, he chose to stay and wait for the opportunity.

"According to a reliable source, Qi Lingos accepted a commission from a certain organization, which involved an item that would allow him to quickly advance to a high-sequence level.

“That item is not important because it’s just a decoy, just a blank check…

"The key lies in the name of the organization that issued the commission and the content of the commission."

...Yes! What Mr. Hanged Man has been emphasizing at the Tarot Club is the item that Qilingos can't get at all! Oh, I understand what he means. He wants to use this high-standard item to attract the interest of the "Fool" and perhaps provide help...

Fortunately, even if the Fool is interested, he doesn't have the ability to help! Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of time? I almost got fooled by the old man! Klein's mind was surging, and he continued to listen attentively:

“Through the analysis of Zilingos’s last words, I finally got a glimpse of the truth.

"The mission involves an assassination. Qilingos did not say who the target is, but judging from the pirate's imitation of this dog... well, Baron Gramiel's various habitual movements, he is trying to disguise himself as this nobleman.

"Taking the risk of being exposed to do this not-so-cost-effective thing means that the identity of the assassination target is not ordinary. At least he must be someone that only a noble or a baron can contact. Maybe he is a great noble, or maybe a member of the royal family... It doesn't really matter. They are too far away from us. We might as well worry about where to have breakfast tomorrow.

"The key point is the organization that issued the commission. Well, after some effort, I set a trap and successfully captured the Beyonder who was responsible for delivering the 'nutrients' to Qi Lingos. Sure enough... it was another 'audience'."

Klein saw that Old Blue had a face full of mockery, contempt, and disgust...Nourishment? The wriggling hunger must eat one every day...That's what it means...

Audience? Or demons? Klein's expression also showed disgust.

It turns out that there is a reason why Old Blue has always hated them... The psychiatrist in Tingen has gone crazy, and the audience in Backlund is as cold as a demon... The organization with "audience" is the Psychological Alchemy Society? They appear so frequently... And Miss Justice actually needs to look for them deliberately? Now I can easily find three or four of their members! Well, if the dead ones are counted.

——Given Old Blue’s disgust for the audience, it seems that the captured black hand has been chopped off... It’s really amazing, Old Blue dealt with these people like cutting vegetables and chopping melons!

I advise Miss Justice not to join such an evil organization...if you get infected with madness, even a fool would not be able to bear it!

Klein thought it would be better to ask clearly:
"So the commission was issued by the Psychological Alchemy Society? Why did they want to assassinate a great noble?"

"Psychological Alchemy Society...Yes, it should be them." Old Bru paused. Since the xx Hermit Society could not be mentioned in reality, then the blame should be put on the subordinate organization, the Psychological Alchemy Society! We are all family after all!

[“Why am I so slow to react? Haven’t I thought about Kapin yet? Since Qi Lingos was the old man in disguise, then who killed Kapin? Everyone, even the maids and butlers were not spared…”]

Klein's heart trembled violently. He didn't want to believe that Old Blue was a bloodthirsty person, and he tried his best to avoid thinking about it. However, the other "clown" didn't have such concerns... He hesitated for two seconds and asked resolutely:
"Mr. Blue, I don't understand. Since Qi Lingos was replaced by Ms. Freni a long time ago, then Kapin... the demon angel incident..."

Qi Lingos's expression was distorted, as if he had recalled some bad things. Old Blue looked surprised, but said with relief on his face:

"Thank you for your trust, Klein."

——If you have doubts, just ask directly. This is the ultimate trust.

"I'm a little surprised that you can think of the previous Kapin incident. This is good. It shows that you have a very broad mind and can analyze things from different angles..."

Klein scratched his nose unconsciously. It was indeed a different angle. That was the reminder from the face-covering clown! At the same time, he was relieved and listened quietly to Old Blue's narration:

"Let me first answer your previous question. Why would the Psychological Alchemy Society want to assassinate a great noble or royal family member?

“Well, maybe it’s because they are all psychopaths, it’s just a joke, you can take it seriously.

"It is impossible to deduce the specific reason from the last words of the two captives, but it is certain that the target of the assassination blocked the way of the group of 'spectators' and interfered with their interests. I guess that even if Qi Lingos' assassination failed, there will definitely be a second and third time, until the stone blocking the way is crushed.

"I plan to let Xiao Fu control this puppet of Qilingos and give credit to the church. Of course, it will also be for me. Storm said that whoever catches the pirate will be given a 'Wind-loving' potion. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity...

"Hehe, I didn't think that the support from the Church of Evernight would be you. This is just right. You can get a share of the merit, which will be helpful for your future promotion." Old Blue said with a smile.

Last words... As expected, Old Blue acted really quickly. If he were still alive, maybe I could try to communicate with the spirits... Uh, aren't these people's brains also contaminated by the evil gods? Klein thought of his experience in Hood Eugen's spiritual world, and suddenly felt that it was good not to be able to communicate with the spirits.

Old Blue really wants to continue his advancement... He has just become a "Navigator", but he is already moving on to the next sequence!

Klein suddenly realized what Old Blue had said: No matter how powerful the external objects are, they are not your own power after all. Only your own sequence is real.
