Chapter 229: Lynn Wants to Call an Outer God

Whether Adam was observing Klein's magic performance was undoubtedly an unknown.

However, Lynn wasn't particularly concerned about the possibility of Adam lurking in the air.

Firstly, considering Lynn's actions since crossing over, like seizing 0-08 and reporting the Apostle of Desire, it wasn't surprising for Adam to take notice of him.

Secondly, referencing Adam's attitude in the Fourth Epoch, Lynn believed Adam wouldn't act recklessly. And even if Adam did have some plans, Lynn wasn't very scared.

A player with hacks fears nothing!

While Klein was a bit scared by Lynn's "horror story," without concrete evidence, he could only suppress his emotions and be more vigilant. Evidently, he was already treating the possibility of an unknown big shot lurking in the air as a common situation that needed caution.

Lynn was quite gratified by this.

Afterwards, Lynn and Klein divided the spoils from dealing with the Rose School of Thought, obtaining a Sequence 7 Werewolf characteristic.

Although the Wraith Steve was taken down early by Klein, due to the inertia of the plot, the Zombie Jason was still exiled by Sharron using a mystical item.

Since Maric needed the Wraith Steve's characteristic to advance to Sequence 5, and Steve was killed by Klein, Sharron naturally chose to make up some difference, exchanging the characteristic from Klein.

Thus, from this battle, Klein and Lynn's side obtained a bottle of Biotoxin, a Sequence 7 Werewolf characteristic, the "Book of Secrets" for making up the difference, and three thousand pounds.

Being an honest child, Klein originally wanted to split these spoils with Lynn as usual. But Lynn refused, stating he was merely assisting this time. So, in the end, he only took the Werewolf characteristic, mentioning that a certain angel seemed to need it.

"Why would he need this? Is there something special about this Werewolf characteristic?" Klein asked curiously, watching Lynn put the characteristic into an iron box.

"Not sure, but this thing... well, it's probably not something good," Lynn shook his head innocently, pocketing the box as he spoke. "I don't know if you felt it, but this characteristic gives me a bad feeling, like whoever uses it to advance is doomed. But perhaps that's precisely why that guy needs it."

Hearing this, Klein, who hadn't yet divined the Werewolf characteristic on the grey fog, instinctively frowned. After thinking for a while, he guessed, "Miss Sharron said the Chained God's control over the Rose School of Thought surpasses normal imagination. Could it be because of this? Like whoever consumes this characteristic to advance will be noticed by the Chained God?"

A god's attention would undoubtedly be disastrous for an ordinary Beyonder.

"That's indeed possible," Lynn nodded. The original story did mention the Werewolf characteristic having issues, generally bringing Outer God attention to whoever used it. The only uncertainty was whether the attention was from Bitch Tree or the Mother Goddess of Depravity.

Considering the complex relationship between the two—one masquerading as the Chained God to lead the Rose School of Thought, the other misleading many followers under the guise of the Primordial Moon, with many followers within the Rose School—it was hard to say if the original Sharron was first noticed by Bitch Tree before falling to the Primordial Moon or if the Werewolf characteristic was initially marked by the Primordial Moon.

However, for Lynn, it didn't matter. Whether it was the Primordial Moon or Bitch Tree, both were enemies he planned to deal with in the future. Lynn was more curious if he could use this connection to call the other side.

This was why Lynn chose the Werewolf characteristic among the spoils. He lacked neither mystical items nor knowledge.

As for money, Lynn was confident that as long as Mr. Fool continued to use mystical items, his money would eventually flow into Lynn's pocket as commission fees.

So why not let the money stay in Klein's pocket a bit longer?

Only by having and then losing, it hurts more, right?

Mr. Fool, of course, didn't know about this "malicious" thought. He just showed a thoughtful expression, guessing that the Angel of Secrets might plan to use the characteristic against the Chained God.

Klein was happy to see this and, looking at Lynn, said, "But this way, you get no spoils at all. How about I still split..."

"No need. I don't lack the things you have. If you feel bad, just copy the 'Book of Secrets' for me!" Lynn waved his hand.

"Alright, if you insist," Klein gave up when he saw Lynn was serious.

"Actually, I'm more curious about what will happen tomorrow night than what the Angel of Secrets plans to do," Lynn shifted the topic, speaking casually.

"Tomorrow night..." Klein instinctively looked at the crimson moon, equally curious about what the prophecy about Fors would entail.

How would Miss Fors reunite with them?

...

Due to the battle's high spiritual consumption, Klein didn't chat long with Lynn before retiring to rest.

After bidding farewell to Klein, Lynn returned to 16 Minx Street.

Upon entering, Lynn saw his divine avatar sipping tea on the sofa. He wasn't surprised and, while closing the door, smiled and said, "Thank you!"

Speaking, Lynn walked quickly to the divine avatar, sat beside him, and took out the iron box containing the Werewolf characteristic, saying while opening it, "This Werewolf characteristic is indeed connected to an Outer God, but I can't determine which one yet since I'm only Sequence 7 and my senses aren't precise."

As a skilled actor, Lynn continued the double act even when alone.

After all, who could guarantee he was truly alone?

Thus, hearing this, the Angel of Secrets glanced at the Werewolf characteristic in Lynn's hand, took it, squeezed it, and carefully sensed it, saying, "It doesn't feel like Bitch Tree; the presence linked to this characteristic is likely the Mother Goddess of Depravity."

While saying this, the Angel of Secrets pulled out another characteristic, that of the demigod puppet who chased Sharron and Maric.

"This characteristic is also tainted. I sensed Bitch Tree's influence on it," the Angel of Secrets briefly explained, as if Lynn wasn't in sync with his thoughts.
