Announcents at the end!!

Klein thought: The Emperor even knows about the "Forsaken Land of the Gods"? Well, of course, he knows about the elves of the Second Epoch, so how could he not know about it?
Alger carefully pondered each word the Emperor spoke: Forsaken by the gods? Could it be the "Forsaken Land of the Gods"?
He exhaled, recalling how, at the previous gathering, he had just probed Mr. Fool about the Forsaken Land of the Gods. And now, only a few weeks later, Mr. Fool had pulled in a mber from there.
He mused internally: I knew it, I knew it! Mr. Fool must have had a special reason for choosing this new mber. Furthermore, the Emperor seems to know quite a lot about the Forsaken Land of the Gods. His knowledge is terrifyingly vast.
Audrey, on the other hand, was shocked by the phrase "forsaken by the gods": Oh my, gods? What does that an? How could gods forsake people? Isn't a god supposed to be a lofty, supre existence? Why would the City of Silver, or the Kingdom of Silver, be forsaken by the gods? Goddess, where exactly does "The Sun" co from?
Derrick's expression turned somber after hearing Hobert's words. "No, Mr. Emperor, the omnipotent and omniscient god has not forsaken their people. They have rely abandoned this land!"
Alger leaned back in his chair: He really is from the Forsaken Land of the Gods!
Audrey's heart was filled with shock: The gods have abandoned that land? What are they talking about? I understand their words, but I can't grasp the aning behind them.
Hobert first bowed to Klein: "Please accept my respect. I never imagined I would et soone from the legendary Forsaken Land of the Gods in my lifeti."
Klein maintained a calm exterior, but internally he breathed a sigh of relief. Sotis, he worried about exposing himself in front of the knowledgeable Emperor.
There were even monts when he wondered if he should find an excuse to keep the Emperor away from the gatherings for a while.
However, the Emperor's display of respect made Klein abandon this thought. He sighed inwardly: Only those who know about the Forsaken Land of the Gods can truly appreciate the significance of The Sun's participation in these gatherings. And the Emperor clearly recognizes this. The power I displayed today should be enough to shock him.
Hobert, of course, was unaware of the great Mr. Fool's internal musings. His earlier display was rely a case of mutual flattery.
He then turned to Derrick and said, "Seven new gods have provided protection to the people of the Northern and Southern Continents."
Alger's eyes narrowed: Seven new gods! New gods!
Audrey thought: Protection for the people of the Northern and Southern Continents? Of course, we are under the protection of the gods. Oh, Goddess! Does this an The Sun isn't from either the Northern or Southern Continent?
Derrick was first excited—new gods providing protection for the human world? But then he felt dejected: Why hasn't the omniscient and omnipotent god protected us?
The hall fell silent once again. This was the third ti today's gathering had been enveloped in silence.
Whether it was Audrey, Alger, or Derrick, today's gathering shattered many of their prior beliefs.
After a while, Hobert broke the silence: "Apologies for interrupting your transaction. You can now receive the Telepathist potion formula, correct?"
Derrick nodded.
Hobert continued, "What would you like in exchange?"
"I want to exchange it for the initial Sequence of the Sun Pathway."
Klein then initiated a three-way transaction: he would provide Derrick with the Bard potion formula, and Derrick would give Audrey the Telepathist potion formula.
He said, "In terms of an equivalent exchange, The Sun is at a disadvantage here. Once Miss Justice obtains the Telepathist formula, we'll figure out how to compensate him. Alternatively, I'll compensate him myself, while Miss Justice provides money to one of my Favored. He has sothing he needs to do soon.
"Heh, this is because The Sun cannot receive Miss Justice's cash or material compensation."
These words confird that Mr. Fool had acknowledged The Sun as being from the Forsaken Land of the Gods. Otherwise, why wouldn't he be able to receive cash or compensation?
Other than Hobert, no one noticed the key point in Mr. Fool's statent: "Miss Justice provides money to one of my Favored." Hobert imdiately felt as if the wheels of fate were set in motion.
When Klein eventually used the funds Audrey provided, it would be the mont his life and fate would take a dramatic turn!
After completing the three-way transaction, Klein began reading the diary provided by Audrey.
Today's diary described sothing related to "adjacent Pathways." Klein recalled the "Law of Similar Sequence Beyonder Characteristics Conservation" ntioned by the Emperor at the last gathering. Suddenly, it all beca clear to him: the conservation of Beyonder characteristics also extends to adjacent Pathways.
In other words, Beyonders from adjacent Pathways see each other as mortal enemies.
If he thought deeper, the fact that the Evernight Goddess Church and the God of Combat Church are sworn enemies might imply that these two Pathways are adjacent to each other.
At that mont, many pieces of the puzzle clicked into place for him.
After Mr. Fool finished reading the diary, Hobert asked Alger, "Any new progress in your explorations?"
Alger replied, "I'm currently dealing with another matter."
He then turned to Hobert and Audrey: "I have sothing I hope you can assist with."
Audrey asked curiously, "What kind of help?"
Hobert thought to himself: Is Qilangos already entering the scene?
As expected, Alger said, "I've received intelligence that the infamous pirate known as 'Vice Admiral Hurricane' Qilangos has secretly co ashore in Backlund. His intentions are unknown, and I hope you can help track him down. As for what happens afterward, you won't need to take any risks."
"Vice Admiral Qilangos? One of the Seven Pirate Admirals?" Audrey said, a little excited. As a Beyonder, what could be more thrilling than encountering soone who had previously only existed in noble legends?
Alger introduced solemnly, "Yes, he is a Sequence 6 of the Sailor Pathway and possesses a mystical artifact. He's extrely cunning and ruthless. Don't try to confront him."
He glanced at the Emperor, but the Emperor seed disinterested.
Hobert, of course, wasn't interested. Even though he had several mystical items and one sealed artifact, he understood the gap between himself and a Sequence 6.
It wasn't just two Sequences apart; there was also the difference between "low Sequence" and "middle Sequence." Plus, Qilangos had the Shepherd's glove.
Only after reaching Sequence 7 did Hobert have confidence in challenging a Sequence 6.
Alger then turned to Klein and asked, "Mr. Fool, may I request that one of your Favored provide assistance at a critical mont? I am willing to offer sothing of interest to you in return."
It was only then that Hobert rembered that Mr. Fool's Favored, Mr. Azik, was currently in Backlund.
