This was a Prophet's intuition: a competent Psychiatrist would be very important at certain times, so he chose to exchange a highly valuable Sequence 5 potion formula for Miss Justice's help at certain times.
Audrey immediately fell silent. She felt that a Sequence 5 potion formula was too precious, but she also desperately craved the subsequent potion formulas.
After a moment of struggle, she finally made a decision in her heart. Reaching out to brush away the stray hairs from her forehead, she smiled brightly and said, "How about this, Mr. Tines? A Sequence 5 potion formula is too precious, and my contribution is far from worth such a return, but I genuinely desire this potion formula."
"I think this potion formula should remain with you. After I advance to the next Sequence, I will exchange for it from you at a smaller cost. During this period, you can come to me with any psychological issues you have, which will count as part of my advance payment."
"This adheres more to the principle of equivalent exchange. What do you think?"
She slightly emphasized the words "equivalent exchange." Mr. Tines would surely understand what she meant.
Leyton heard this and nodded with a smile, saying, "No problem, upholding the principle of equivalent exchange!"
"Then, I shall take my leave. Thank you again for your help!"
As he spoke, he bowed slightly to Audrey.
Immediately, he stepped back, and under the light of the fireplace, his figure quickly faded and became transparent, disappearing from the dining room.
"This kind of Beyonder ability to come and go freely is truly enviable!"
Audrey looked at the empty sofa in front of her and sighed softly.
She half-squatted down and stroked the Golden Retriever's fluffy, warm head:
"Susie, we completed a real adventure, even though it was in a dream, but that makes it feel even more magical to me!"
"I think so too!"
Susie buried her head in Audrey's light golden hair, responding to her words.
In Bayam, inside a quiet three-story house in the Dock District, Leyton's figure condensed amidst shimmering starlight.
Leticia watched Leyton emerge from the shimmering starlight. Just as she was about to speak, she saw bits of starlight carrying a glass bottle fly into her hand.
"The Reader potion. If you are ready, you can drink it now..." Leyton said in a calm voice.
"This is the potion?"
Leticia looked at the brownish-yellow liquid with silver-white fluctuations in her hand with some curiosity and hesitation.
After only a slight hesitation, she directly uncorked the bottle and drank the potion in one gulp.
The potion melted upon entry. Before she could feel anything, she had already begun her advancement from an ordinary person to a Beyonder.
In less than a minute, she successfully completed the advancement.
A purple light flowed in Leyton's eyes. He carefully watched Leticia in front of him. The advancement was very smooth, and the Reader potion was directly digested by more than half. It seems that people from the Moses Ascetic Order also enjoy reading.
Seeing Leticia open her eyes again, he nodded slightly at her and chuckled softly, saying, "Congratulations, the advancement was very smooth."
The joy of advancement did not last long on Leticia's face. She quickly returned to a calm state and asked, "When are we leaving Bayam?"
In the past two days, the Church of the Lord of Storms's pursuit of them had not only not weakened but had intensified, which made her and the other adventurers feel immense pressure, urgently wanting to leave Bayam and the sea.
Leyton's gaze penetrated the walls and floorboards, sweeping around the small building, and then he said, "We can leave now."
In the Spirit World Depths, after arranging for Leticia and her group, Leyton was ready to return to Bayam. He was curious if Klein had summoned Miss Messenger.
His figure quickly roamed, enveloped by brilliant starlight. Richly colored blocks constantly slid past, and at extreme speed, the layered color blocks were stretched into fine lines, looking like an abstract oil painting.
From time to time, one could also see yellow Suns that looked like children's scribbles, Moons with smiling faces, and serpentine long stairs leading to the Seven Lights.
They seemed to exist in a very distant place, not receding due to Leyton's speed of travel in the Spirit World.
It felt a bit like the Seven Lights of the Spirit World, seemingly becoming an eternal phenomenon, a symbol in the Spirit World. As his thoughts turned, Leyton's spiritual perception suddenly stirred.
He quickly stopped his movement and turned his head to look into the Spirit World Depths.
A golden stream of light fell directly towards him. As it approached, Leyton felt a familiar aura and clearly saw its appearance.
A golden book, its cover, as if cast from gold, emitted a striking glow in the Spirit World.
After approaching Leyton, it quickly flipped its pages, and a light yellow sheet of paper drifted down.
Having done all this, the golden-covered book quickly changed direction, streaking a golden light, and flew into the Spirit World Depths.
Why does it feel so busy? With a sigh, Leyton reached out and caught the light yellow paper dropped by the messenger.
There were no words on it, only a Eyes of Mystery Prying symbol drawn with spiritually rich blood.
Leyton frowned slightly. This was how he synchronized memories with his clone, but they generally did not synchronize memories with each other unless it was necessary or for special matters.
Something happened right after accepting the Reader Pathway's Characteristic?
As his thoughts turned, he had already placed the Eyes of Mystery Prying symbol drawn in blood on the light yellow paper against his forehead.
He slightly closed his eyes, his consciousness carrying his spirituality spreading out.
The oracle from the God of Knowledge and the memories of being pulled into the dream world by Ariehogg surfaced one by one.
Helping the True Creator while also busy bringing the Dragon of Imagination back. Betting on both sides, perhaps He will also support Night becoming the Eternal Darkness. As long as they are not enemies, they can become temporary allies. Is this the choice of wisdom?
After a slight murmur in his heart, he quickly reined in his thoughts. At the same time, he reached forward, pulling out a black handkerchief from nothingness, and with a flick of his wrist, it transformed into a night sky.
Following a Mystery Pryer's peculiar sensitivity to information, he made this created night sky obscure and hide the information generated by his thoughts just now.
"Phew~ That was close. I can't think about these problems in the Spirit World anymore, because the information generated by thought might be captured by those existences skilled in this area."
He muttered to himself, and the shimmering starlight surrounding him once again brightened, carrying his figure quickly forward.
Without spending too much time, he arrived at the Spirit World area corresponding to Bayam.
Purple light flowed in his eyes, his gaze penetrating the barrier between the Spirit World and reality, looking at a wireless telegraph machine. The aura of the Gray Fog.
Ever since Klein established "mind communication" with him above the Gray Fog through that Conqueror Characteristic last time, he had gained a certain grasp of the Gray Fog's aura. As long as it was within a certain range, he could vaguely discern the Gray Fog's aura.
Leyton, who was watching the wireless telegraph machine, suddenly felt his spiritual perception stir. A purple light quickly appeared in his eyes.
Arrodes the mirror still had some capabilities in the Spirit World; it could follow the Gray Fog's aura from such a distance.
