Alger and Piero both nodded and began to think about what code name they should use.

Of course, they would not naively think that Mr. Fool’s question just now was to seek their opinions.

That's just a euphemism to remind them.

But based on their temporary considerations, how could it be faster than Valeela directly transferring the existing established example?

"I've already thought about it."

Valeera didn't leave any time for the two of them to think about it. She only showed a moment of thinking before speaking:

"You are Mr. Fool, from the Tarot cards. As members of the party you convened, our titles must be as consistent as possible, and it is best to choose them from the Tarot cards."

"Well, I'll just call it 'temperance'."

This is the code name she decided on very early.

After all, she planned to change her order. Neither "Queen" nor "Chariot" fit her identity well, and in the eyes of members with sufficient knowledge of occultism, this would even expose her secrets.

“Temperance” is fine by comparison.

After Valeera finished speaking, Piero had no obvious reaction, but Alger's brows furrowed.

He was a little disgusted with the sentence "We also have to choose from tarot cards.".

But he soon figured it out and did not dwell on this unimportant issue. He stretched his eyebrows and simply said:

"I choose 'The Hanged Man.'"

"Then I'll choose 'Tower'." Piero shrugged.

"Very good, it seems that our party has entered a new chapter."

Klein put his hands on the long bronze table, leaned forward slightly, and asked:

"So, Miss Temperance, Mr. Hanged Man, and Mr. Tower, have you found Russell's diary?"

In order to strengthen their respective sense of belonging to the belated code name, Klein deliberately called each of them individually.

Hearing Mr. Fool mention "debt", the expressions of the three of them became much more serious.

Of course, Valeela was faking it.

Alger glanced at Miss Temperance opposite him, remained silent for a moment, and then said:

"I found two pages of Emperor Russell's diary and memorized their contents."

"I have two pages, too," Valeela followed.

In fact, although she reviewed the Tarot session described in the original book many times in advance and even wrote down all three pages of the diary, she originally planned to submit only one page.



That's the page she forged.

But when she discovered that "Justice" Audrey was not there, Valeela could only help submit her page, lest Klein fall into a pit that was not found in the original book due to missing clues and hints.

"Sorry, Mr. Fool," Piero glanced at the "Fool" shrouded in gray mist, "I still need a little time to get Russell's diary."

"Can."

Klein nodded, not letting his joy and disappointment affect his voice.

To his delight, in the first week after making the request, four full pages came in;

I am also disappointed with the number of four pages, because the first collection is definitely the easiest, and the harvest in the future will most likely be less and less.

What's more, Mr. "Tower" didn't even get a single page!

"Tuk, duh."

Klein knocked on the table, and tawny parchment and dark red pen appeared in front of Valeela and Alger.

"Pick up a pen and paper, and feel the urgency to write down the contents of the diary that you have memorized."

When Alger had begun to "express" skillfully, Klein alone gave prompts and guidance to Valeela who was performing.

Soon, Valeera adapted to this "writing" method and copied the other two notes.

When the two of them completed the re-engraving, Klein thought, and four pages of parchment flashed into his hands.

He scanned the diary with his eyes. In line after line, some were upright, some were graceful, some were slanted, and some were slanted square Chinese characters. He found many problems with word order reversal, omissions and typos.

However, research shows that sequence errors to a certain extent do not affect Chinese reading, and he has no fear of omissions and typos after suffering from asterisks for many years.

Klein flipped through the pages.

The main content of the first page is sailing and unknown islands;

The main content of the second page is, a really fragrant arranged marriage;

Both pages were provided by Alger.

The main content of the third page is the first experience of the "general person";

This page is a double-sided diary, and the original was provided by "Justice" Audrey.

The main content of the fourth page is the unofficial name of "The Fool".

Valeera made this page up.

In comparison, the two pages provided by Valeela were much better than Alger in content quality.

For now, of course.

Through the third page of the diary, Klein felt that there were obvious differences in personality and style between himself and Russell.

In addition, the description in the diary of the reduction of potion hazards gave him a lot of confidence in his previous summary and a clearer grasp of the essence of "acting".

As for the fourth page of the diary, Klein also got a lot of information from it.

For example, Russell traveled through time because he made a wish on a "silver medal";

For example, the potion sequence name "Arcane Scholar" of unknown level in the "General Knowledge" path;

For example, the information about the sealed objects “0-05” and “Wishing Magic Lamp”;

For example, those with high positions in the "divineer" path have mastered abilities such as "wishes";

Another example is the honorific name "The Fool" that Russell drafted in the end.

This is a blockbuster diary page with an explosion of information!

Descriptions like "wishes" and "miracles" made Klein feel excited and felt that he was really on the right path.

"Perhaps, as long as I improve my order, I can use this omnipotent ability to 'reverse travel' back to the original world?"

With the reasons for the time travel recorded in Russell's diary as supporting evidence, this seems quite possible.

After a while, Klein put down the diary and said with a smile:

"Sorry, I was fascinated."

"You can start."

Hearing Mr. Fool's words, Alger waited for a few seconds, and then quickly turned his gaze to Piero beside him, "Have you helped me find the 'Ghost Shark's Blood'?"

Because there were new party members joining, he deliberately reported the name of the main ingredient of the potion and conducted the most preliminary test.

After all, one more person at the party means one more channel.

Different from the inflated mentality in the original work where he dared to privately complain about "The Fool" for recruiting new members to join the club without his consent, Alger, who was stuck in promotion due to the potion's main ingredients, held a slightly welcoming attitude towards the new members joining.

"No."

Piero shook his head repeatedly and said:

"I'm not sure I can find this material, but I'm pretty sure that at least a week or two won't be enough for me to find it."

After hearing this answer, Alger's expression collapsed, and he was obviously quite disappointed.

But at the same time, he was experienced and combined this answer with previous clues to make a very specific guess about Piero's identity:

"He should be an official Beyonder. He was a civilian member before, but now he is probably a 'reader' and has become an official team member."

"Considering that he spoke Intis language at the beginning, this guy is probably an Extraordinary from the Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun."

"He is right, 'Ghost Shark's Blood' is not something he can apply for in a short time."

Thinking of this, Alger sighed secretly and began to think about how to talk to the young lady opposite.

At this moment, the young lady's clear and sweet voice reached his ears, making him tremble all over.

"'Ghost Shark's Blood'?"

"Sequence 7 'Navigator', I will be able to help you get this potion's main ingredient soon."
