Although Alger guessed the answer, the others didn't quite understand the meaning of "Emperor."

Before Derrick could ask, Audrey, with her insatiable curiosity, preemptively inquired, "Mr. Emperor, why can't we make similar requests to Mr. Fool now?"

Klein was also very curious about this, because with the experience from the last gathering, "The Fool" didn't rush to "flare up."

Hobert smiled and said, "Of course, it's because Mr. Fool has more important things to attend to now and won't respond to such prayers."

"If Mr. Fool were willing to respond to this, he would have you cooperate in related experiments."

He thought to himself: I can't possibly say that Mr. Fool needs to reach Sequence 6, or preferably Sequence 5, before he can respond accordingly, right?

Audrey naturally heard the implication in Mr. Emperor's words. Associating it with the previous attempts made under Mr. Fool's instructions, she immediately understood: Mr. Fool's power to influence reality is not yet sufficient to make such responses.

She recalled: From the initial attempt to pull people in, to the later attempts with honorific names, and then to the attempts with sacrifices and bestowals, Mr. Fool is gradually deepening his influence on the real world! If Mr. Fool asks Little Sun to cooperate in making talismans one day, it will indicate that Mr. Fool's power has further recovered.

Finally, Audrey was puzzled: How did Hobert perceive these pieces of information, as well as the previous speculation about Mr. Fool's pathway?

Fors and Derrick both sensed that the "Emperor's" words seemed to have hidden meanings, but Fors didn't immediately understand the "Emperor's" hints because she had joined the Tarot Club for a relatively short time.

And although Derrick had made some progress during this period, he had only progressed to the point where he could hear that Mr. "Emperor" had hidden meanings, and it was difficult for him to immediately understand what the "Emperor" was specifically referring to.

Klein smiled: So I will have such abilities in the future. I wouldn't even know if others didn't tell me.

Observing that Mr. Fool didn't express his opinion on this, Alger confirmed his previous guess: Without a doubt, Mr. Fool is gradually escaping his predicament. Judging from how he tolerates the "Emperor" expressing these remarks, he doesn't mind other members of the Tarot Club guessing this information. Perhaps Mr. Fool needs the "Emperor" to explain it!

Alger then sighed inwardly: This can prove that the "Emperor" really knows how to deal with gods. This is an advantage that other members don't have.

"Thank you, Mr. Emperor," Derrick said with a slight bow.

Hobert waved his hand, indicating that it was nothing.

Then Derrick spoke of the matter that had been making him anxious: "The exploration team led by Elder Lovia of the 'Shepherd' has returned."

"They have completed the exploration of the half-destroyed temple of the 'Fallen Creator.' And I have noticed that the personalities of several team members I am familiar with have undergone certain changes."

Alger said with an assertive tone: "They have been contaminated by the 'True Creator.'"

"Then what should I do?" Derrick asked anxiously. "I have already reported to the 'Chief,' but the 'Chief' doesn't seem to believe me very much."

Even Fors, who was adhering to the principle of speaking less and listening more, couldn't help but remind him, "That's because your 'Chief' suspects that you have been possessed by Amon and are plotting something detrimental to City of Silver."

This made Derrick even more anxious.

Alger pondered for two seconds and then said, "Actually, your 'Chief' should also be starting to pay attention to the 'Shepherd' and the members of that exploration team at this time."

"The reason why your City of Silver has been able to continue to this day is that the higher-ups still have the most basic vigilance. They won't let go of every possible threat. The only problem is that they don't pay enough attention."

He paused and then carefully considered his words, "Perhaps you can use this matter to clear your suspicion."

"Find an opportunity to make a certain exploration team member show enough abnormality and have a conflict with him. In this way, your 'Council of Six' will be able to notice something is wrong and increase their attention."

"And at the same time, you hand over the 'Worm of Time,' saying that during the conflict, you suddenly became dazed and didn't know what happened. You only vaguely heard someone shouting 'True Creator.'"

"When you came to your senses, you had already coughed up that worm."

"Involving evil gods, many methods and abilities cannot be used. Your 'Chief' will logically guess that Amon's clone had a conflict with the mental corruption left by the 'True Creator' and eventually perished into a dead worm."

"The surveillance on you will definitely be reduced a lot because of this. If you behave yourself for a while, the suspicion will be completely gone."

Audrey opened her mouth slightly and thought: Why does Mr. Hanged Man seem so skilled in this area?

Hobert once again sighed inwardly: "This is the true level of the 'Political Commissar'. Yesterday, when I went on an adventure with him, he couldn't even fart for half a day. I even doubted if this was really the 'Original Second-in-Command' of the Tarot Club?

"Thinking about it now, I showed enough strength and toughness from the beginning of the exploration. His caution and silence were the smartest way to handle it. Smart people know when to shut up."

Derrick's eyes lit up as he listened. He felt that Mr. Hanged Man was indeed trustworthy and had come up with such a good idea!

Then he asked, "Then how should I make the members of the exploration team show a sufficiently abnormal state?"

The always taciturn World said, "I have an item here that has been mentally contaminated by the 'Fallen Creator.' I can lend it to you, but its value is very high. If you lose it, you will have to make certain compensation."

Next, Alger finalized the plan for "Little Sun." Derrick prepared to look for an opportunity after returning and prepare for this operation.

At the same time, he knew that he would not be able to sacrifice to Mr. Fool for a while, so he planned to sacrifice the 7 Sequence 8 main materials that he had already exchanged for before the operation to repay Mr. Emperor's previous debt. The remaining 2 main materials would have to wait for a while to repay.

After the "Sun's" matter was resolved, the "World" asked in a somber voice, "Mr. Emperor, do you know any information about Mr. 'Door'?"

Alger was stunned. He had also heard the "Emperor's" description of Mr. "Door" just now. Since he could compare Mr. "Door" with Mr. Fool, does it mean that he is also an ancient god?

Hobert nodded: "In an exploration, I learned some information about Mr. 'Door.' Later, I learned some related information through other channels. I think I have a relatively comprehensive understanding of Mr. 'Door's' intelligence."

The "World" said, "I want to know the relevant information. What reward do you need?"
