Not feeling too tired yet, Klein rubbed his forehead and waved his hand, causing a small metal bottle from the pile of debris to fly over.

Inside was a small tube of blood that he had extracted from his own veins with great effort. He had already brought it above the gray fog, waiting for the opportunity for his spirit to enter Groselle's Travels and explore the world in the book.

After unscrewing the lid, Klein did not rush to smear blood on the dark brown cover of the book. Instead, he "summoned" all the items that he had brought into this mysterious space before the Tarot party from the pile of debris and placed them in front of him in a mess.

Considering that the appearance of the "Black Emperor" was too eye-catching, and without knowing the specific situation of the world in the book, Klein decided not to carry the Blasphemous Card and instead used the Azik Copper Whistle to strengthen his spirit body, so as to avoid being killed instantly by an unknown force and not having enough time to return to the gray fog.

As the ancient and exquisite copper whistle merged into his body, Klein's spiritual body seemed to expand a little, but in fact it became much thicker.

Two balls of dark flames then leaped out from his eye sockets, as if they had a vitality of their own.

With the help of meditation and adjusting his spirituality, Klein absorbed all the coldness from death into his body, and the abnormality in his eyes quickly recovered.

It's like an evil spirit taking on the appearance of an ordinary person to lure its prey closer.

Then, Klein put on the "Creeping Hunger" and hid the extraordinary properties of the "Death Knell" revolver and "Nightmare" in his body. The latter was prepared for him to explore the dreams of the creatures in the world of the book to find anomalies.

After making all preparations, he unscrewed the cap of the metal bottle, poured out a few drops of blood, and smeared them on the cover of Groselle's Travels.

After a short wait, what he saw was blurry at first, as if there were countless transparent things hidden there, but then it became clear, with blue sky, white clouds, gray-brown city walls, and people coming and going.

It was not the snowy land from before, but a city that looked normal on the surface... Klein stood on the rammed earth road, examining the residents of the world in the book. He found that most of them were wearing linen shirts, brown short coats, and dark, loose trousers. The overall style was similar to that of the Kingdom of Loen hundreds of years ago.

Looking down at the swallowtail suit, stiff-collared shirt, and dark red bow tie he had manifested, Klein silently changed them all, and in an instant he became indistinguishable from the people around him.

He then walked towards the city gate, ready to enter.

At this moment, a gatekeeper in leather armor stopped him:

"Entry tax! 1 Riddle."

Do I look like I'm rich? I don't even know what a Riddle is... Klein muttered to himself with amusement, and then used the "communication" between spirits to successfully divert the gatekeepers' attention to the caravan entering the city from behind.

As a quasi-vengeful spirit that can possess and manipulate others, it is normal for it to exert mental influence on the target. This ability is not considered strong, but it is very useful for ordinary people.

After entering the city, Klein strolled along the streets with a cautious heart but a relaxed exterior. He felt that the public health environment here was better than Backlund in the early years. It seemed to have a mature sewer system, and there would not be feces, urine, garbage, etc. dumped from the upper floors.

"It doesn't look like a fake world from a book at all. Everyone has a 'spiritual thread'..." Klein examined it as he walked forward. Suddenly, he saw a stone building over ten meters high on the side. It had only two floors, and the top of the gate was about four meters from the ground.

There was a sign next to the building, with a few words written on it that were different from any words in the outside world, but Klein could understand them at a glance:

"Pesoit Blacksmith Guild"

There is also a Blacksmith Guild. It turns out that this place has not yet reached the steam age... Just as Klein was about to sigh, he saw the door creak open and a giant with deformed limbs walked out!

The giant had a gray-blue complexion, a signature single vertical eye on his head, and was holding a large, heavy hammer in his hand. He walked to the other side of the street with an upturned smile.

The humans passing by were not afraid of him, as if they had seen too much of him.

They even greeted the giant:

"Good afternoon, Groselle!"

Groselle... Klein, who was rather face-blind to the appearance of giants, narrowed his pupils, and only then did he feel familiar!

He was about to catch up, but found that the giant turned into another street and disappeared from his sight.

Klein stood there, quietly staring at the intersection of the two streets, and had some vague guesses in his mind:

"In the world of the book, there is also a Groselle?

“No, the travelogue ends with Groselle dying in the Frost Kingdom…

"Is this another story?"

With all sorts of doubts in his mind, Klein didn't rush to look for Groselle. Instead, he turned and entered a tavern on the street.

This kind of place is often where the information in a city is the most confusing and complicated, which helps him quickly grasp the overall situation.

The light in the pub was dim, the ventilation was not very good, and the air seemed a little turbid. At this moment, there were not many people drinking. Most of them were sitting at the bar, happily chatting with each other and the bartender.

Klein walked over slowly, his eyes suddenly fixed again.

He saw a man sitting at the side of the bar, wearing a pointed black hat and an asymmetrical coat. He was good-looking, with flaxen hair, dark brown eyes, a high nose bridge and thin lips. He was none other than Viscount Mobet Zoroast of the Solomon Empire!

When he saw him, Klein recalled the scene of this Dream Thief rapidly aging, falling to the ground, and struggling to crawl towards the elf singer Siatas and hold her hand.

It all happened as clearly as if it had just happened yesterday, but now Mobet appeared before his eyes again.

Klein calmed down, walked over, and sat next to Mobet.

He didn't speak, knowing that Mobet would initiate the conversation.

“Stranger, first time in Pesot? I swear, I haven’t seen you before.” Mobet put down the glass of distilled liquor and turned his head to look at Klein.

"I'm from the Frost Kingdom." Klein said casually.

Mobet suddenly burst into laughter:

"You are such a joke, this is the Frost Kingdom, of course, that was many years ago.

"Ever since the legendary 'King of the North' was killed by some adventurers, no, heroes, there has been no ice or snow here. Everyone thinks it should be called the Kingdom of Neverwinter now."

Klein fell silent and did not respond.

"Why are you so serious? It seems that you have your own pain." Mobet knocked on the wooden board of the bar with sympathy, and took a sip of wine. "I tell you, men should never get married. This will be the beginning of a lifetime of pain! Do you know? When she shows any emotional fluctuations, she will beat me up. Beat me when she is happy, beat me when she is shy, beat me when she is angry, and beat me no matter what! I have decided that from now on, I will never go home again!"

Is this a marriage with Siatas? Klein was silent for two seconds, and looked at Mobet's face. He found that there were no signs of bruises or swelling on it, which showed that the elf singer still knew that men should save face.

He asked with a sigh:

"Then why did you marry her?"

Mobet was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly:

"I followed the caravan here. When I saw her for the first time, she was so beautiful and her singing was so beautiful. There seemed to be an indescribable sadness hidden in her singing. Oh, how much I loved her then, how much I fear her now! I will never go back. Hey, why are you a little sad? Don't feel sad for me. I'm free now!"

At this moment, the door of the tavern was opened with a bang, and a beautiful female voice shouted:

"Mobet, get out!

"I'll beat you dozens of times, and if you don't go home, you'll never go back!

"nineteen……"

Mobet jumped up and ran to the door, muttering as he ran:

"I know you won't be patient, so every time you count to 8, just jump to 2!"

Klein turned his body and saw Siatas, but he no longer had the thought of going over to communicate with her.

The real Mobet and Shatas are already dead, and only two characters from the world of the book are alive here.

Standing up and leaving the tavern, Klein came to a nearby deserted alley, intending to first confirm what the spiritual world here looks like.

Layered balls of light quickly appeared in his mind, his thoughts gradually became empty, and his body and mind became peaceful.

As his spirituality extended bit by bit, many indescribable illusory figures appeared around him, but there were no seven bright lights of different colors in the sky that contained countless knowledge.

“Without the Seven Lights… there aren’t enough spiritual creatures… this is indeed a false spiritual world constructed by the book itself…” Klein took a step in and felt the colors in front of him suddenly become brighter, extremely rich, and overlapped with clear boundaries.

He was not in a hurry to explore this spiritual world. He withdrew and wandered around the city of Peso, chatting with people.

It didn't take long for him to find Groselle's residence.

The giant ran a blacksmith shop and was currently lying leisurely on the large bed on the second floor, catching up on his nap.

Klein went straight through the wall and came to Groselle's side.

He stared at the giant for a few seconds, then took out the extraordinary characteristics of "Nightmare" from his spirit body and used the abilities it naturally possessed with great difficulty.

The deep and quiet darkness spread quickly, enveloping Klein and Groselle in an instant. In his spirit state, Klein directly saw an irregular, hazy ball of light.

His spirituality immediately spread over and touched the ball of light.

Various scattered scenes instantly emerged and flashed around him, and finally stopped outside a forest with huge, tall but decaying and withered trees. On the other side of the forest, there were towering mountains and steep cliffs, with a magnificent and gorgeous palace on the top.

The palace was tall and magnificent, and did not seem to be prepared for human beings. It gave people an intuitive feeling that it came from mythology, and the dusk light shining on it seemed solidified.

Klein had seen this palace before. This was the "Giant King's Court" that had appeared in the dream world of the God War Ruins!

However, his perspective now is completely different from before, and he is currently located behind the royal court!
