"The former Creator refers to the City of Silver Creator that Klein mentioned? Your Eminence Lin Ruo is also related to that Creator?"
Star Leonard, who had only been told about the existence of the City of Silver Creator but not about the City of Silver Creator and the nine Kings of Angels under Him, thought with a slight surprise.
He wasn't surprised by the hints in Lin Ruo's words, which implied, "I am not the Angel of Judgment." After all, while Star Leonard could sometimes be a bit slow, he wasn't truly foolish. Since he and Klein both had to conceal their identities at such gatherings, it was not strange for Lin Ruo to hide his true identity.
And this time, probably because intelligence finally took the high ground, Star Leonard finally restrained his small movements and did not reveal any more flaws.
However, sometimes having no flaws is also a flaw. For example, a certain Young Miss who had been paying attention to Star Leonard since the beginning of the Tarot Club noticed something.
"Mr. Star doesn't seem very shocked by the relationship between Mr. Chariot and the Angel of Judgment. Although he is a bit surprised, it feels like his surprise is about something else."
Justice Audrey judged, continuing to murmur in her heart.
"Hmm, in that case, perhaps the relationship between Mr. Chariot and the Angel of Judgment isn't a secret in their circle, and coupled with the fact that he can produce such an important item…"
"Could Mr. Chariot really be a student of the Angel of Judgment?"
Justice Audrey thought this was very likely.
"Chariot can actually directly promise to lend such an item to Little Sun. His relationship with the Angel of Judgment…" The Hanged Man Alger lowered his head, still not thinking as wildly as to equate Chariot with the Angel of Judgment. Instead, he became more convinced of his theory of a divine descent vessel.
"Because he is the vessel of the Angel of Judgment, he is naturally 'intimately' related to the Angel of Judgment and can make such a promise."
The Hanged Man Alger even had a suspicion at this moment.
"Is Chariot still purely Chariot?"
"Could he have already begun to be influenced by the Angel of Judgment, moving closer to the other party…"
The Hanged Man Alger's fingertips trembled slightly, his heart chilling from his own guess.
"Mr. Chariot is really generous, willing to lend even such a valuable item to Mr. Sun…" Compared to the complex thoughts of others, Magician Fors clearly didn't think that much, merely sighing in her heart.
"A gift from the Creator to His Eminence the Angel of Judgment?"
"Then wouldn't it be a very important item!"
Little Sun Derrick reacted immediately after his surprise, eagerly saying, "This, this won't be too valuable, actually…"
However, before he could finish his sentence, Lin Ruo interrupted him, "It is indeed very valuable. To be honest, if you lose it, I'll be in a lot of trouble too…"
"So, Mr. Sun, please don't lose it."
"I understand, Mr. Chariot." Little Sun Derrick, who had originally wanted to refuse because the item was too valuable, took a deep breath upon hearing this and solemnly said, "I will definitely not lose it. Even if I were to die, I would return it to you through Mr. Fool."
"Young man, don't easily set yourself up for failure!"
Lin Ruo complained in his heart. He, of course, knew that lending the Unshadowed Crucifix to Little Sun carried a certain risk of losing it. But what doesn't have risks? If Little Sun was really that unlucky and died, and the Unshadowed Crucifix was lost, Lin Ruo could probably only wait until the Forsaken Land of the Gods instance opened to search for it himself.
Moreover, to be honest, with the City of Silver Chief leading the team, the gray fog as a cheat, and the Unshadowed Crucifix in hand, Little Sun Derrick really wouldn't die that easily.
"Mr. Chariot, what should I pay for this?" Little Sun Derrick suddenly thought of something and asked.
Although it was only a loan and not a gift, Little Sun Derrick clearly didn't think he didn't need to pay a reward.
"Hmm, should I say it's Little Lamb? If he hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten that I could ask for a reward…" Lin Ruo joked in his heart. After thinking for a moment, he smiled and said, "As for the reward, how about providing me with some detailed knowledge about Beyonder creatures? I'm very interested in the various Beyonder creatures in the Forsaken Land of the Gods and want to understand their situation more concretely."
Although, due to Little Sun's certain conscientiousness, almost everyone in the Tarot Club, except Salted Fish and Leonard, had a copy of the monster catalog around City of Silver, that kind of catalog actually only contained a monster's name, with no more specific information.
And Lin Ruo was indeed very interested in the situation of various monsters in the Forsaken Land of the Gods. After all, many monsters in the Forsaken Land of the Gods had already gone extinct in the outside world, and some didn't even have records. Lin Ruo was inherently a person who loved knowledge, so he naturally wanted to know these things.
Of course, the more important reason was that, apart from knowledge, Lin Ruo really didn't want anything else from Little Sun.
Although there were many good things in the Forsaken Land of the Gods, Little Sun's Sequence was too low, which led to the awkward situation where Lin Ruo didn't care for what he could provide, and Little Sun couldn't obtain what Lin Ruo cared for even if he died.
"So, I still need to increase Little Sun's influence in City of Silver. Once he's taken seriously, some things he can't provide, the City of Silver Chief might be able to…" Lin Ruo thought this and saw Little Sun Derrick nod.
"I understand, Mr. Chariot."
Although there were no extra assurances, just by looking at Little Sun Derrick, Lin Ruo knew that this Little Lamb would inevitably offer his wool very conscientiously again.
"Very good!"
"But if I suddenly have a God-level mystical item, how should I explain it to others?" Little Sun Derrick seemed to have thought of something and asked worriedly.
After all, God-level mystical items are not cabbages. The entire City of Silver only has a few God-level items in total. If he could explain his previous axe as something he got from the black market, this God-level mystical item clearly couldn't be explained away no matter what.
The others also realized this problem at this time and all looked at Chariot, waiting for his answer.
"My suggestion is that after you go back, you go find your City of Silver Chief and try to meet him." Lin Ruo replied with a gentle smile, "After you meet him, you directly tell him that you found a God-level mystical item, and that it was a gift from the Creator to the Angel of Judgment."
"Ah?" Little Sun Derrick was a bit confused, clearly not understanding what this operation was about, and could only subconsciously ask, "What if the Chief asks me how I found it?"
"Then you tell him you had a dream, dreamt of a black-haired, black-eyed Angel, and when you woke up, that mystical item was in your hand." Lin Ruo still said with a smile.
"Ah? But the Chief wouldn't believe such a lie, would he?" Little Sun Derrick clearly still didn't understand this operation.
"Of course he won't believe it. If he believed such a clumsy lie, he wouldn't be the City of Silver Chief." Lin Ruo looked at Little Sun, recalling the descriptions of the Chief in the original novel, and after a pause, said, "But as long as you stick to this lie, he will choose to believe it, because he is the City of Silver Chief."
