"No!" Audrey answered firmly to Hvin's question.
While speaking, she told her inner island: Is he so worried about ? Since I decided to join a secret organization, I have the basic awareness of confidentiality.
"Very good." Hvin on the sofa said with a smile: "I'm just curious, Hobert should be able to see that you are a Beyonder, didn't he question where your potion formula ca from?"
"No." Audrey said firmly again: "We value maintaining each other's privacy."
Her "Mind Island" echoed at this ti: Speaking of which, Hobert seems to have asked once, but didn't ask in detail, because he has more secrets than .
Hvin nodded with satisfaction, and then asked Audrey about the process of summarizing the "Acting thod".
Finally, Hvin smiled kindly: "You are very talented, you have actually figured out the 'Acting thod' yourself."
He paused and then said: "However, before Sequence 6, we do not advocate using this thod to accelerate the digestion of potions, so we will not teach it."
"Why don't you advocate it?" Audrey asked sincerely.
Hvin took another sip of tea before saying: "This will make the Beyonder unlike themselves, and so will even be assimilated by the remaining influence in the potion."
Audrey suddenly thought of what "Little Sun" ntioned: The most important thing about the Acting thod is: rember, you are just acting.
Then she felt that what Hvin said made so sense, but not entirely, because as far as she knew, she and Hobert had digested the potion quickly, but their condition had been very good.
Hvin put down his teacup and said: "You do have the talent and qualifications to apply for the Sequence 5 'Dreamwalker' potion formula. I will give you so tasks one after another. This is both a need for fairness and an exercise of your ability."
"Understood." Audrey had no objection to this: "What is the first task?"
Hvin smiled kindly: "A simple but relatively long-term task, each of your feedback counts as a contribution."
Speaking of this, he took a deep breath: "Pay attention to Hobert's movents, including who Hobert ets, what they talk about, especially so actions of Hobert's organization, even if you only understand part of the information, report it to imdiately.
"In addition, conduct long-term observation of 'Earl's Light', try to visit the power plant, and then tell the internal structure of the power plant.
"Of course, don't take risks when doing these things. It's best to get so news, and don't force it if you can't."
Hvin seed to habitually pause for a mont and then said: "Don't worry, we won't hurt Hobert, we just hope to start so cooperation with the 'Creator'."
This last sentence actually has no logical support, just a promise, but as Hvin on Audrey's "Mind Island" raised his right hand and pressed his forehead, Audrey actually felt that what he said made sense!
Then Audrey quickly woke up: If we want to cooperate, we can directly go to Hobert, so secretly asking to pay attention to Hobert is obviously asking to collect information about the "Creator" forces!
As this idea appeared, Audrey controlled her "Mind Island" and did not show any suspicious emotions in her heart.
Then she responded: "I am very willing to promote the cooperation between the Psychology Alchemists and Hobert."
Hvin smiled with relief, his eyes suddenly beca a little deeper: "Given your identity and the environnt you are in, you will forget our conversation, and anything will be conveyed through Istrant and others.
"When there is sothing extrely important to report, you will subconsciously visit , using the reason of asking for advice on academic knowledge."
As Hvin said these words, Hvin on Audrey's "Mind Island" also repeated them, which caused so "rocks" on the "Mind Island" to change and rapidly sink into the ocean of subconsciousness.
But Audrey rembered the conversation just now clearly. She controlled herself and got up dazedly: "Yes, sir!"
After saying that, she quickly got up and left the living room step by step.
At the mont when she closed the door, Audrey instantly felt that there were two mories with certain differences in her mind. One mory had Hvin Rambis, and the other mory did not.
These two mories instantly rged, causing Audrey to feel confused for a few seconds, but she, who had been promoted to "Hypnotist", imdiately sorted out the primary and secondary and the true and false, and reorganized every detail that had happened before.
Audrey sighed: What powerful mind reading and hypnosis. Although there is the blessing of the "Fool" angel, when recalling so things just now, it still feels like looking at yellowed photos, as if many years have passed.
She was first a little proud: So the Psychology Alchemists care so much about Hobert and the "Creator"'s forces. As Hobert said before, if he ca with him, just getting off the carriage and looking at the scenery on the street would give the Psychology Alchemists huge pressure.
Then Audrey's mood was not very good. She didn't expect the Council Committee of the Psychology Alchemists to despicably "hypnotize" herself and let herself collect information for them.
...
In the afternoon, Hobert was drinking tea on the terrace, enjoying a rare mont of leisure.
However, as soon as he drank two cups of tea, he saw a carriage with the Hall Earl's family emblem entering the Earl's Mansion.
Audrey, wearing a plain long dress and an ordinary hairband, but still unable to conceal her beauty and vitality, got out of the carriage, and Susie jumped down after her.
Hobert got up and smiled: "Ha, Audrey, your timing is perfect. I'm having afternoon tea. Would you like a cup too?"
Audrey downstairs smiled: "Okay."
Then, Audrey walked upstairs, and Hobert went out to greet her. The two t on the stairs.
Hobert took Audrey's hand: "How was your first day at work?"
"Not bad," Audrey replied.
The two returned to the study together. The mont the study door closed, Audrey suddenly showed so grievance: "Hobert, I encountered so unpleasant things today."
Hobert opened his arms, and this ti Audrey did not refuse and threw herself into Hobert's arms.
He hugged Audrey tightly and said: "Tell , what was unpleasant?"
Hobert's solid arms made Audrey feel very comfortable and at ease.
After the two hugged for a few seconds, Audrey took a step back and said: "I did see the Council Committee mber of the Psychology Alchemists today."
Hobert took Audrey back to the terrace: "Sit down and talk slowly."
Audrey sat on the terrace and glanced at the gardener who was taking care of the lawn outside. Her aning was self-evident: Our conversation will be heard!
Hobert smiled: "It's okay, our voices can't reach beyond the terrace."
Just "tampering" with the propagation distance of the sound waves can achieve such an effect.
Audrey nodded before saying: "I went to see Hvin Rambis this afternoon according to the previous agreent with the psychology teacher..."
She briefly described to Hobert the experience of eting Hvin Rambis.
After Hobert finished listening, he was silent for a few seconds before saying: "Have you ever thought about being the president of the 'Psychology Alchemists'?"
"Ah?" Audrey thought she had heard wrong.
Hobert smiled: "Just kidding, I've t Hvin, he looks very kind, but I didn't expect him to be so insidious behind his back."
Then he asked: "How do you want to punish him?"
Audrey sighed: "I thought about it just now, it's actually nothing, just hypnotizing , it's not enough to punish him for anything.
"I just think that so of the Psychology Alchemists' performances are gradually becoming different from what I imagined."
Originally, she had always thought that the Psychology Alchemists were an academic organization, concentrating on studying topics in the field of psychology, and seed not very interested in the struggles of the extraordinary world.
But after seeing Hvin Rambis, Audrey realized that the high-level mbers of this organization also had a lot of utilitarianism.
Hobert didn't ask where it was different, but suddenly said: "I'm going to form a 'Witch Research Society' recently, are you interested in being the president?"
Audrey was stunned for a mont, then smiled: "I'm not a witch."
"It doesn't necessarily have to be a witch." Hobert smiled: "This position needs soone I trust very much to take it.
"I thought about it and you are the most suitable. Although you are not a witch, those witches wouldn't dare to say anything."
Audrey's appearance was already comparable to that of a high-level witch. In terms of beauty and charm, she could leave ordinary witches behind by several streets.
No witch would have any objection to such a lady serving as the president of the research society.
Of course, there is also a key reason, she is still Hobert's fiancée, this is Hobert's "identity blessing" for her.
"Sorry, Hobert." Although Audrey was very interested, she felt that she didn't have the ability: "I can't..."
Hobert raised his hand: "Don't rush to refuse, listen to my thoughts first."
Audrey nodded, looking at Hobert.
Hobert explained: "I am a favored one who is highly regarded by the 'Creator', and I handle most of the real-world affairs for the great 'Creator'.
"These jobs make very clear that the current structure of the 'Creator' Beyonder forces has five systems, from three extraordinary families and two Beyonder organizations.
"The war that just ended made feel that the traces between families and Beyonder organizations are too heavy, which is an uncontrollable factor in so cases.
"So the 'Creator' hopes to join them with new Beyonder forces to neutralize the traces of families and organizations."
He picked up the teapot and refilled Audrey's tea: "The 'Witch Research Society' is a very critical part of this plan. According to my observation, Helen, um, that is a witch.
"She and her companions try to bring pain to evil forces or evil people, bring pain to themselves, and bring joy to their lovers, and they can still digest the potion.
"Currently, other than their lovers having to eat more tonics, these ways of digesting the potion don't seem to have any other side effects.
"I think these thods should be popularized, which may reduce many disasters in this world.
"That's why I hope to establish the 'Witch Research Society' to cultivate Beyonder forces loyal to the 'Creator' while promoting such thods of potion digestion."
Audrey sighed: "This idea is very... very great."
"Great is out of the question." Hobert smiled: "But it will indeed make this world develop in a good direction.
"Um, I think the gods that our own witches are loyal to are not in as bad a state as the 'Primordial Demoness', which will reduce the negative impact of this pathway's potion to a certain extent, and should not embark on the old path of the Demoness Sect."
He smiled: "Back to the question just now, the problem I'm facing now is that I need soone who understands the 'Acting thod' very well and who I trust very much to be the president of this research society."
Audrey hesitated, not imdiately refusing.
Hobert said: "You can think about it."
"I'm afraid I don't have the ability." Audrey said her worries.
"At first, I only planned to recruit so ordinary people to participate in this research society, at most so 'low sequence' mbers." Hobert already had a relatively mature idea:
"After you are promoted to Sequence 5, recruit Sequence 7 mbers, in short, there should always be 2 sequences between the mbers and you.
"In addition, if you have managent problems, you can co and ask ."
Finally, Hobert said seriously: "Ability can be cultivated."
Audrey was a little tempted: "Then what are we going to study?"
"Study how to digest potions quickly and efficiently! Study the true aning of 'Witch'!" Hobert said: "For example, the first research topic is: only won can enter this research society!
"This should reduce the distortion between Beyonders and Beyonder characteristics, and help them maintain a good state."
This topic completely moved Audrey: "When will the research society be established?"
"It will imdiately enter the establishnt process when you are willing to be the president."
Audrey smiled: "Then it can be established."
"Okay." Hobert smiled: "I will recruit the first batch of mbers for you as soon as possible, and you will recruit the subsequent mbers yourself.
"As for the venue, I will rent a villa first to solve the accommodation problem of the mbers. After there are more mbers, I can rent a mansion in Empress Borough."
"Okay." Audrey then said: "By the way, in my conversation with Hvin Rambis today, the 'Acting thod' was ntioned.
"He said that if the acting thod is used too early, the Beyonder's potion will be digested too quickly, and it is easy to lose oneself."
She looked at Hobert: "Our potions are digested quite quickly, will this leave any hidden dangers?"
"That old man's theory is not entirely correct!" Hobert said: "He missed a very critical factor."
"What is that factor?"
"Love and emotion." Hobert smiled: "Or rather, humanity."
He looked at Audrey with tenderness in his eyes: "I have considered before that you have played a huge role in the stability of my humanity, which makes my state very stable.
"I think such a role is mutual, and I should also let your humanity be expressed, which is enough to resist the residue of Beyonder characteristics."
Audrey smiled a little sweetly and shyly: "But, but Beyonders below demigods don't have divinity, do we also need to express our humanity?"
"In my understanding, Beyonder characteristics are anti-life and anti-humanity." Hobert said: "It's too cold and full of madness.
"So below demigods, what needs to be used to fight against is Beyonder characteristics, to be precise, it is using the warmth of life to warm Beyonder characteristics."
Finally, he spread his hands: "Of course, this is just my own guess."
Audrey nodded, feeling that this idea made sense.
This topic ended, and the two looked at the Earl's Mansion's large yard together.
The "weather" today was good. Although there seed to be so thin mist in the distance, the sun could be seen and the temperature of the sunlight could be felt.
This made all the green plants in the entire Earl's Mansion look vibrant.
After more than ten seconds, Audrey seed to have recovered and said: "Hobert, I also encountered another thing today."
She withdrew her gaze from the distance and looked at Hobert again: "Today, 150,000 pounds of funds from 'Earl's Light' were withdrawn in the form of cash, but I noticed that not a penny was missing on the books.
"If I'm not mistaken, this fund should have been 'spent' through the previous false reports on so investnts."
Hobert smiled: "This is exactly why I asked you to go to 'Earl's Light'."
"Let make fake accounts?"
"No, let you supervise whether this money is really spent where I want it to be spent." Hobert said: "Currently, there is a total of 500,000 pounds for this money, which will be transferred in three batches."
Audrey was a little surprised, 500,000 pounds! This is more than the property she can inherit. Her dowry when she gets married in the future is estimated to be only this much.
Hobert then asked: "Are you curious about where this money is spent?"
Audrey nodded imdiately.
Hobert got up and said: "Let's go to the Southern Continent."
"Southern Continent?" Audrey was a little incredulous.
"Yes, Southern Continent." Hobert smiled and stretched out his arm.
Audrey took Hobert's arm with so surprise, the space in front of the two beca illusory, and after entering the spirit world, they quickly disappeared in place.
After a transfer in Bayam, the two ca to the Southern Continent, the upper reaches of the Hodis River.
Audrey saw a huge plain! She could also see the distant mountains and rivers. This was a huge basin. There was nothing else in the basin, just whole pieces of crops.
It looked neat and tidy, like a harvest was about to co.
Audrey looked at the farrs working in the fields and suddenly smiled: "It's a pity I didn't bring my paintbrush and canvas."
But Hobert said: "Let's go and take a closer look, look carefully, look closely."
Audrey noticed the strangeness in Hobert's tone. She took Hobert's arm, and the two used "travel" again to co to the field.
The people around were all "distorted" by Hobert's thinking and turned a blind eye to them.
When she ca to the field, Audrey imdiately noticed sothing was wrong: the farrs in the field were too thin! And many people were still wearing shackles.
She looked again at the surrounding crops that were growing very well, and was a little incredulous!
Then, Audrey saw several people from the Northern Continent sitting there chatting and smiling in the shade of the trees. Looking at their height and appearance, they should be Feysac people.
Bang~
Suddenly there was a gunshot, followed by the laughter of the Feysac people.
Audrey noticed that a dark-skinned middle-aged man was working a little slowly, so a Feysac man shot him directly.
The middle-aged man imdiately knelt down, speaking the local language, begging the Feysac people for rcy.
Bang~
But his begging was useless at all. The Feysac people began to use him to practice shooting. The middle-aged man turned his head and ran, but on the fourth shot, he hit the middle-aged man's back.
So the wailing of the middle-aged man could be heard in the surrounding fields.
Audrey wanted to save people, but Hobert stopped her: "Years of high-intensity labor and long-term malnutrition have made him very weak and he is about to reach the end of his life.
"This is also the reason why the Feysac people will kill him rcilessly, otherwise slaves are valuable property and are generally not killed easily."
Hobert paused and then said: "If you save him now, what about in the future? How will he live? What should he do when he encounters danger again?"
Audrey looked at Hobert with so surprise: "Let's save the people in front of us first..."
Hobert rarely interrupted Audrey: "Audrey, look around, the entire plain you see no longer has self-cultivating farrs. It is either a Feysac estate or a local noble's estate.
"Those working in the fields are all slaves.
"If you co again in a year, you will find that there are one-third new faces, but the number has not increased much."
Finally, Hobert said: "This is a colony! You can't save them all!"
Audrey was about to say sothing, but Hobert said first: "During the Great Smog Incident in Backlund, I also felt that I could save one if I could.
"Later I realized that this efficiency was too slow!
"So I have been actively promoting the extraordinary war with the Demoness Sect. One battle has left them hiding in dark corners!
"I want to see who dares to create a great smog incident!"
Hobert pointed to the distance: "It's the sa here, it's useless to save one of them! I don't even know where to arrange them if I save people here?"
Audrey opened her mouth, not knowing what to say for a mont. She suddenly felt that the Hobert in front of her was a little strange.
At this ti, the middle-aged man who was wailing just now had even disappeared.
"Sorry, Audrey." Hobert said seriously: "I let you see the cruel side of this world, but this cruel side has always existed.
"Think about those holess wanderers in Backlund, think about those children with big heads in the slums.
"I think you should take a look at the cruel side of this world."
Audrey took a deep breath before saying: "You're right, I was too well protected before."
Hobert finally regained his smile: "It's this era that has a problem, not you."
He said: "I plan to spend that 150,000 pounds here. The local earth king has been controlled by our people, and these invaders will also abandon the estate under the pressure of the governor's office.
"50,000 pounds of the 150,000 pounds will be used to bribe the governor's office. Of course, this 50,000 pounds is only temporarily deposited there.
"The remaining 100,000 pounds will be used to purchase agricultural tools, build so workshops for producing building materials, etc., so that people here have houses to live in that don't leak, so that they can eat enough, and in the future they can also be allocated a piece of land.
"The current annual mortality rate here is as high as 30%, and it will not exceed 3% next year!"
Finally, Hobert said solemnly: "Audrey, in the future, we will have more money to spend in this kind of place! I want to carry out large-scale construction and investnt in the Southern Continent.
"Such investnt may not have a return for decades, but it can save countless lives!"
Audrey smiled slightly: "Hobert, as I said just now, what you are doing is great!"
