After returning to the real world, Fors sat at the desk and thought absentmindedly about the Abraham family for a while. He gained a new understanding of the few words mentioned in those mystical notebooks.
So that's how it is... No wonder Mrs. Anlisa was reluctant to inform Mr. Lawrence of the death of her husband and herself... Thinking about it this way, the Abraham family is really pitiful and sad... Fors muttered to himself for a few words, and took out the book "Spiritual World Observations" from a pile of ordinary books, preparing to copy the first and second chapters.
To this end, she meditated and adjusted her breathing, trying to put herself in the best condition. Otherwise, just copying the contents of "Spiritual World Observations" would bring her mania and confusion.
These words obviously have no spirituality, but once they are combined to describe those absurd scenes, they seem to have the ability to affect people's emotions... I take a five-minute break after every five minutes of transcribing. I don't want to lose control... Fors took out a small and exquisite pocket watch and placed it diagonally in front of the desk.

Silver City, Berg's house.
Derrick woke up, with reflections of lightning in his eyes that illuminated everything.
He looked around and didn't feel like he was being monitored.
But the Hanged Man's accurate reasoning about previous events and his calm and confident attitude made Derrick believe that his guess was correct. He believed that at this moment there must be one or several extraordinary people with special abilities secretly watching him.
“Besides, Mr. Fool didn’t deny it…” Derrick got up from the bed and stretched his body out of habit.
During this process, some of the analysis and suggestions from "The Hanged Man" quickly emerged in his mind:
"So far, no one has come to look for you or put you in the dungeon. This means that your 'Chief' and the other elders of the 'Six-Man Council' prefer to observe and hope to find a way to get the entire Silver City out of the abandoned land from Amon, the first living person they have met in more than two thousand years.
“So, if you don’t do anything too outrageous, they will definitely not rashly alarm you, lest Amon discovers anything unusual.
“That way, their surveillance won’t be too close, at least not when you’re awake.
"Because of this, they probably didn't notice that you had coughed up the 'Time Worm', and their subsequent reaction indirectly proved this.
“Similarly, they should only be able to observe what ritual you are performing, but cannot figure out who you are praying to. If it were me, I would definitely suspect that this is related to Amon.
“Based on the above reasons, you can openly complete the ceremony of requesting the grant, and then put all the blame on Amon. Of course, you must act cautious and careful enough, and be prepared to be examined by Beyonders of different sequences such as the Psychoanalyst after everything is over. In this matter, you can ask Mr. Fool for help…”
Following the advice of the Hanged Man, Derrick walked around the table twice, carefully closed the window, lit the candles, and set up the ceremony to request the blessing.

Above the gray fog, in the majestic ancient palace.
Klein was idly looking at the stone pillars supporting the dome. He felt that this building, which was created based on his own ideas, was quite similar to the Temple of Athens.
Is this because of my own subconscious? He thought distractedly.
At this moment, the crimson star corresponding to the "sun" shone brightly, quickly creating ripples and condensing into an illusory and mysterious door. Above the entire gray fog, a little power was pried open and flowed like water.
Hearing the layers of prayers, Klein lowered his head and looked at the "All-Black Eye" in front of him.
"I hope the little 'Sun' doesn't lose it, otherwise Mr. 'World' will have to die heroically..."
——It is precisely because of the "All-Black Eye" that Klein, who is not a "Master of Secret Dolls", can secretly manipulate the fake "world" and make it appear flesh and blood.
Once he loses this item, in order to prevent his "magic" from being exposed, he can only let the "world" die.
With emotion, Klein spread his spirituality, driving the flowing gray mist power to rush towards the illusory door, forcibly pushing open a gap and stabilizing the transmission channel.
Then, he placed the "All-Black Eye" into an iron box, threw it into the gap of the mysterious door, and said something as if he was talking casually:
“Don’t touch the items inside directly.”
After doing all this, he did not linger for too long, because he knew that the little "Sun" would not find an opportunity to act so quickly, and he did not know when Miss "Magician" would be able to finish transcribing two chapters of "Spiritual World Observations".
His spirit expanded, and Klein's figure suddenly disappeared into the gray fog.
…………
Silver City, Berg's house.
Just as Derrick saw an iron-black square box on the altar, he heard the familiar voice of Mr. Fool:
“Don’t touch the items inside directly.”
Don't touch it directly... Derrick took note of the reminder and decided to execute it without any compromise.
After thanking Mr. Fool and Mr. World and completing the ceremony of requesting the gift, he opened the iron box very carefully and examined the items inside.
It was a completely black eye without a pupil. Just seeing it made Derrick feel confused and his thinking slowed down. He also heard a faint, unreal, and somewhat crazy mumbling sound in his ears.
Shivering suddenly, Derrick closed the lid of the iron box, picked up the pure silver dagger, and used the method of creating a "spiritual wall" to completely seal the iron box.
Then, he put the iron box into the secret pocket inside his clothes, put on the "Hurricane Axe", went out, and headed straight for the training ground.
Those members of the exploration team have not yet been released from the disguised isolation.
However, Derrick did not intend to take action today. He followed the instructions of Mr. "The Hanged Man" and planned to observe the specific situation first and then wait patiently for the opportunity. Of course, if he encountered a good opportunity, he would have to take action.
Entering the training ground, Derrick walked around the area where the exploration team was. He saw that they were gathered in twos and threes, whispering something to each other. However, once they noticed someone was watching them, they would immediately stop and stand there in silence, occasionally taking a few steps forward, like zombies that had just crawled out of the depths of darkness.
If I remove the "Spiritual Wall" now and let the feeling of Mr. World's item spread outward, how will they react? Turn their heads at the same time and look at me together? Derrick imagined the scene where everyone present turned their heads and looked at him coldly and ruthlessly, and he inexplicably felt some indescribable fear.
He took a breath and told himself to be patient, to wait, and not to panic.
…………
In the Silver City, at the top of the round tower, in the room belonging to the "Chief".
The "Demon Hunter" Colin Iliad, who was resting with his eyes closed, suddenly opened his eyes and looked towards the shadowy corner.
A figure twisted and stood up from there, swaying slightly, and spoke in a voice that sounded like metal rubbing against each other:
"Your Excellency, Chief, Derrick Berg held another ceremony. From what I have observed, it should be a ceremony to request a gift. It is very similar to the sacrificial ceremony we usually do, but the difference is that he received a response and was given an iron-black square box.
"I can't see what's inside, but it feels very evil and dangerous."
At this point, the shadow pleaded eagerly:
"Sir Chief, this must be the order of that mysterious person. We must take action and cannot leave it alone! Otherwise, Derrick Berg will sooner or later summon the evil god or a similar being to destroy the entire Silver City!"
Colin's expression became extremely solemn. He stood up and walked slowly, saying:
“Wait a little longer.
"Until now, we have not been able to figure out the purpose of the mysterious man who calls himself Amon. We don't understand why he only sent a clone here after discovering the Silver City and patiently stayed in the underground prison for forty-two years.
"If he simply wanted to destroy us, he wouldn't have taken these incomprehensible actions.
"Wait a little longer. This may hide our hope, the hope of surviving when the doomsday disaster comes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of lightning flashed outside the window, illuminating the entire dark sky and the dark room.
…………
It was almost evening when Klein waited for Miss Magician's prayers and obtained the first two chapters of "Spirit World Observations" through a sacrificial ceremony.
As he sat in the seat belonging to the Fool, leisurely flipping through the copied notes and reading line by line, he was surprised to find that he was gradually becoming a little manic.
What was going on? Those words clearly had no spirituality, and the paper was even more ordinary. It couldn't possibly be a sealed object, so how could it affect my mental state? Moreover, I was above the gray fog, a gray fog that could even block the influence of a true god... Klein frowned, leaned back, and carefully recalled the content related to similar phenomena in the Book of Secrets.
It didn't take long for him to understand the reason:
When describing certain existences in detail, even if it is just pure textual content, it will affect the reader's thoughts and spirit!
Among them, the most terrifying are the records related to the true God.
A book that explains a certain god in detail will drive every reader crazy or distort their worldview. It is highly likely that the Extraordinary Person will go out of control!
The notebook "Observations in the Spirit World" comes from an ancestor of Abraham's family. He recorded all the strange things he encountered when he traveled in the spirit world.
In the first chapter, he described the light in the spiritual world, believing that the seven pure lights of different colors contained infinite knowledge in different fields, and that travelers could see them covering the heights no matter where they were in the spiritual world.
What is even more surprising is that these seven magical lights are alive! They are alive just like the various spirits wandering around there!
In the field of occultism, the goal of many secret rituals is actually the seven pure lights. By secretly integrating with them, one can gain certain knowledge. Therefore, many occult experts call the seven pure lights "Master" or "Teacher."
The seven pure lights seemed very happy about this, and they brought together many spiritual creatures to form a secret organization dedicated to teaching humans knowledge, the "Pure Light Brotherhood"!
In the second chapter, the traveler from the Abraham family records his encounter with the "Yellow Light" Venitan.
