Hvin Rambis took a sip from the bone china teacup beside him, looked at Audrey who was sitting upright without making any mistakes, and said with a kind smile:

"Don't be so reserved. This isn't the first time you've met me. I remember two years ago, you even discussed Berman's moral philosophy and Consiso's pragmatism with me."

Audrey maintained a faint smile and said:

"I just find it difficult to connect you with the members of the Psychological Alchemy Council."

Hvin Rambis has not yet introduced himself in this way, but this is a reasonable guess based on Audrey's knowledge of the Psychological Alchemy Society and the situation on the scene.

Herwin crossed his right leg and smiled slightly:

"It's not worth worrying about. Never forget that our Psychological Alchemy Society is an organization established for the purpose of studying knowledge in the spiritual field. We are more academic than business. Ha, since it's academic, you can completely treat the so-called committee members as professors in the university."

If Audrey had not known from Mr. World in advance that Hvin Rambis was behind Caron's suicide, no matter how she looked at him or observed him, she could only conclude that he was a scholar with profound knowledge, a kind attitude, a humorous way of speaking, and not arrogant at all. But now that she was wary, Audrey did not believe in these things that appeared on the surface.

While looking at the other person and organizing her words, she tried not to focus too much on one point, keeping her thoughts active and divergent so as not to be hypnotized unknowingly.

At this moment, her mind suddenly became a little dazed. She seemed to see seven pure lights containing countless knowledge, and densely packed figures with indescribable shapes. She saw them spreading high in the sky and covering everything.

This is the spiritual sky, this is the reflection of the spiritual world at the spiritual level!

Below the spiritual sky is a deep, dark ocean, where every drop of water is like a ray of light and shadow, representing a point of consciousness and an imprint.

There are several islands near the sea, one of which belongs to Audrey herself.

She clearly realized that this was a symbolic expression of her own consciousness. What was exposed above the sea level was the part she could perceive, while what was submerged in the "sea water" was the deeper level of consciousness that she could not grasp or explore at ordinary times.

Floating above the island and looking down, the first thing Audrey noticed was the lonely and silent expanse of gray. It blocked her vision, so that she could only see the huge and dark outline of the subconscious and the illusory and rippling ocean of the collective subconscious, making it difficult to obtain too much information.

Audrey was wondering how she had entered this strange state when she suddenly saw a large area of ​​gray mist spreading to both sides like a tide below the island, in the deeper part of the subconscious ocean, revealing a stone staircase that had appeared at some unknown time.

On the stairs, a figure quickly rose up in a flash, and almost instantly entered Audrey's field of vision.

He had thick white hair, and wore a standard three-piece suit, striped blue-grey trousers, and a dark red bow tie. His forehead was heavily wrinkled. It was Hvin Rambis!

Compared with the one sitting on the sofa, this Rambis had a sinister temperament, no smile at all, and his head was slightly lowered, as if he was examining Audrey's subconscious behind the stairs.

In just a few steps, he entered Audrey's island of consciousness from the ocean of collective subconsciousness, and walked from the subconscious realm to the part that emerged from the sea surface, like a silent visitor who came without permission or knocking on the door.

After landing on the island, Hvin Rambis raised his head. Part of his skin was covered with gray-white scales, and his eyes were golden and erect, without any emotion.

This... Audrey, floating in mid-air, watched this scene and had a clear understanding of the current situation:

This is the world of the mind, a spiritual world composed of the spiritual sky, the collective subconscious ocean and the islands of personal consciousness!

Because of the blessing from Mr. Fool's angel, Hvin Rambis's behavior of secretly invading my mental body and spiritual realm with the help of the collective subconscious ocean triggered the "alert"... That power then separated my most essential self-consciousness, allowing me to control everything that happened on the "island" under the spiritual sky, thus resisting the true meaning of mind reading... This is really magical, no, Hvin Rambis is really hateful! Not polite at all, breaking into someone else's "home" without permission or notice! Audrey muttered a few words in mid-air.

She understood her own situation, and while secretly influencing the changes on the "island", she responded to Hvin Rambis who was sitting leisurely on the sofa in the real world:

"I am also very reserved when talking to university professors."

As she spoke, Audrey let her inner island mutter:

This is not a good metaphor at all. As a member of the Psychological Alchemy Association's jury at such an old age, he is at least Sequence 4, which is a demigod, half-human existence. Naturally, he makes people feel awe and restrained!

Hwen Lanbis, who was sitting on the sofa, laughed immediately:

"Then I won't force you. I heard Hilbert mention you. He said that it only took you a few months to be promoted from a 'psychologist' to a 'hypnotist'. I'm very curious, how did you do it? Well, I also heard the answer you told Eslante, which was the courage to apply it. I want to hear more details."

At this time, Hvin Rambis on Audrey's "Mind Island" was looking around expressionlessly, listening to the echoing sounds here.

Audrey was prepared for this, and pretended to organize her words. After several seconds, she said:

"It means 'dare to apply' as the word literally means.

"Well... let me put it this way. In my future plans, I have always had the option of becoming a psychologist. Now that I have the corresponding extraordinary abilities, I will definitely be happy to try it and use them to help people around me solve mental or psychological problems."

As she spoke, she seemed a little embarrassed by her slightly childish behavior, and "Island of the Mind" faithfully reflected this.

After a pause, Audrey continued:

"During this process, I found that I had a better and better grasp of the power of the potion. Then one day, I inexplicably felt something in my body shatter and merged into my blood. I also vaguely saw one illusory star after another. Mr. Rambis, what does this mean?

"Well, I don't know why, but from that day on, I was certain that I could become a 'hypnotist'. Maybe it was a subconscious suggestion."

After saying this, Audrey deliberately made herself on the "Island of the Soul" stick out her tongue like a child, doing something she would never do normally, in order to prove that she was really a little embarrassed just now, because playing the role of a "psychologist" was no different from playing a princess when she was a child.

And embarrassment often means that the truth is being told.

Hvin Rambis nodded slightly and said:

"Very talented, he actually figured out the 'acting method' on his own."

"Acting?" Audrey was surprised and confused, but soon she understood something.

Hvin Rambis smiled kindly and said:

"It's what you understand. Act according to the name of the potion and summarize the corresponding rules. This is an effective way to digest the potion and reduce the negative effects.

"However, before Sequence 6, we do not encourage members to use this method to speed up the digestion of potions, so we will not teach it. Who knew you would figure it out on your own?"

"Why not promote it?" Audrey asked sincerely.

Hvin Rambis sighed and said:

“This will cause members to become unlike themselves, and some may even be assimilated by the residual influence of the potion.

"To put it simply, in the first three sequences, you will slowly master your power, gradually adapt to the extraordinary, and make your self-awareness deeper, more distinct, and more mature, which will help you deal with some problems brought about by the 'acting method' later on.

"Of course, I can only comment on the 'audience' path. As for other extraordinary paths, I don't know if this is the case. Obviously, the paths that focus on the spiritual realm will always be a little different in terms of self-awareness."

Audrey couldn't tell whether Hvin Rambis was lying or not. She just felt that it made sense but not necessarily completely true.

Little "Sun" mentioned that the precautions of "acting method" include "Remember, you are just acting"... I feel that this is more appropriate. Well, I have always strictly followed it and will continue to do so in the future... Audrey, you can't be careless. From now on, you must pay more attention to strengthening your self-awareness! In Mr. Fool's opinion, this must be just a small problem and does not need to be emphasized. It is included in the sentence "just acting", but for ordinary people, it may be quite important... Audrey's thoughts turned quickly and she took the initiative to ask:

"Can you explain this 'acting method' in more detail?"

Hvin Rambis explained it in more detail, and then said:

"You do have the talent and qualifications to apply for the Sequence 5 'Dream Walker' potion formula, but before that, I will give you some tasks one after another. This is both a fair requirement and a training for your abilities. After you become a Sequence 5, you will lead two or three psychological research groups. Every judgment and every choice you make will affect the future of your members, and even their lives. Therefore, we cannot allow someone who is seriously lacking in the ability to handle affairs to be promoted to Sequence 5."

"I understand." Audrey had no objection. "What is the first task?"

Hvin Rambis smiled and said:

“A simple but long-term task, every feedback you give will count as a contribution.”

At this point, he sighed:

"The gap between the New Party and the Conservative Party is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more conflicts. A certain degree of rift has appeared within the kingdom. I hope you can pay attention to the attitude of your father, Earl Hall, and convey his views on certain bills or affairs to me. Don't worry, this will not harm him. We just hope to mend the rift."

The last half of his sentence actually had no logical support, it was just a promise, but as Hvin Rambis on Audrey's "mental island" raised his right hand and pressed his forehead, Audrey actually felt that what he said made sense and believed it without a doubt.

Floating in the air of her spiritual world, she suddenly woke up and realized something was wrong.
