Su Li was forcibly pulled back into the room by Lilith, feeling completely confused.

Was he easily fooled by the old charlatan with just a few words?

Lilith's expression turned serious as she closed the door and set up a spiritual wall. She then solemnly spoke to Su Li:

"You've read a lot of books on mysticism, have you ever come across something called 'synchronicity'?"

"I don't really believe in fate, it's too elusive," Su Li waved his hand dismissively.

Lilith smiled slightly and made an interesting analogy.

"A person's life is filled with numerous choices, big or small, important or insignificant. These choices weave together into a dense web, which people usually call fate."

Su Li had attended university and had some knowledge of philosophical concepts of fate.

He nodded, accepting Lilith's analogy.

Lilith continued:

"When you become the container for the Transcendent, it's like placing a stone heavy enough to depress the fishing net on your web of fate."

"This 'weighty' event will completely change the dynamics of the web of fate, causing everything around it to uncontrollably roll towards the center of the net."

This analogy was very vivid, leaving Su Li speechless.

Indeed, this series of coincidences revolved around the Transcendent's personality.

It reminded him of the "Law of Extraordinary Trait Aggregation."

And the reason Lilith didn't hesitate to take Su Li away was also because of Ackman Hoynes' half-truths.

The God's envoy must have received the corresponding information.

He must have learned about Su Li being Mourinho's disciple and having a special physique.

And he took advantage of it and extended an olive branch.

As for the secrecy of the Steam Church, there was no doubt that it existed and was worth the intervention of the True Spirit Society's Fourteenth High Priest.

However, its level of secrecy was far less important compared to the Four Emperors of the Spirit Realm, Melin Alyssa.

This coincided with what Ackman Hoynes said about it not being worth using a Level Zero Seal.

Therefore, Lilith deduced that at least the Night Goddess and the Steam and Machinery God must have some degree of attention towards Su Li becoming the container for the Transcendent, and the scales were tilted in Su Li's favor.

The two deities seemed to not want to awaken Obeah, but they also didn't intervene too much.

These were all Lilith's deductions!

After listening, Su Li fell into silence.

Before this, he had always believed that fate was a vague and elusive thing.

But now it seemed to have some connection to him.

At least, so far, it seemed to be advantageous for him!

Both the Night Church and the Steam and Machinery Church had been quite friendly towards him.

Su Li took a deep breath and looked at the deep darkness outside the window, feeling a sense of exhaustion.

What kind of changes would the future bring?

The True Spirit Society should have already set their sights on him, right?

...

In an ancient and mysterious ruin, two identical old men squatted in the fields, playing with several strange flowers that had baby faces.

A member of the True Spirit Society, dressed in a black robe with his face covered by black mist, appeared silently outside the fields and respectfully bowed:

"High Priest, the mission has failed, and you have fallen."

The two old men, who looked like old farmers, simultaneously raised their heads. Their appearance was none other than Hooke Beterilla!

These were his other two main clones, without a real body.

They were like independent clones, with the same emotional reactions, but each person had different memories. Of course, they all believed in the Mother Goddess of Life and were ranked among the Fourteen High Priests, including several lower-ranked "themselves."

Both independent and collective.

This was the strangeness of Hooke Beterilla.

Upon hearing that their clone had fallen, the "two" High Priests spoke at the same time:

"Tell us about the divination results."

"High Priest Gloria said that your death is related to the Four Emperors of the Spirit Realm, Melin Alyssa. It's due to the interference of a Level Zero Seal, and Ackman Hoynes' involvement cannot be ruled out."

One of the Hooke Beterillas asked in surprise, "How did Melin Alyssa get involved?"

The other Hooke Beterilla asked, "Besides Mourinho, is there anyone else who has made a contract with the Four Emperors of the Spirit Realm?"

These two questions were actually the same question.

The High Priest servant with the face covered by mist answered, "High Priest Gloria said that Mourinho is still trapped in the Serede branch."

The answer was self-evident.

The corners of the mouths of the two Hooke Beterillas curled up into a smile as they patted the soil on their hands:

"Let the members of the True Spirit Society in the capital, Delan Becca, keep an eye on who participates in the Serede branch of the Night Church."

"According to your will, High Priest."

...

The next morning, Su Li got up.

The long-awaited hot shower made Su Li feel refreshed.

After drying himself, he stood in front of the mirror and couldn't help but feel satisfied with his appearance.

Since coming to this world, Su Li hadn't slackened off.

Perhaps it was because of his status as the container, combined with his persistent training, that made his physique appear close to perfection.

Distinct muscle lines and well-defined facial contours.

Everything looked so vibrant.

Taking out the uniform symbolizing the Night Watcher's identity from the thief's belt, Su Li quickly put it on.

Today, he would assist the Steam and Machinery Church in hypnotizing ordinary people.

Lilith would be responsible for altering memories, turning the extraordinary battle on the train into a "train robbery and explosion."

Usually, this task was handled by Night Church members who boarded the train after it arrived at the station.

But based on the principle of "handling Transcendent events nearby," Su Li and Lilith had the obligation to fulfill their duties.

Reaching out to adjust the cuffs of his shirt, Su Li inserted his hands into the black double-breasted coat.

Su Li opened the door, knocked on Melissa's door, and waited.Inside, two ladies were sipping their tea, discussing some interesting events in the royal city of Delan Becca.

"Ladies, I'm ready. When do we set off?"

Melissa stood up and said with a smile:

"Let's go. We'll complete the mission first. When we get back to the royal city, I'll give you the address of the handbag craftsman."

"Don't forget, I really like the style of this handbag."

Lilith reluctantly glanced at the small cowhide handbag with a copper buckle on Melissa's table and reminded her.

A bit speechless about their topic, Su Li said:

"I thought you two were discussing the recent extraordinary cases in the royal city."

Lilith gave Su Li a glance and huffed:

"Let's go. This time, I'll teach you how to deal with witnesses of Transcendent cases."

"As a soul comforter, you are more capable of hypnotizing ordinary people and guiding their minds than other Transcendents."

Su Li's mouth curled up in interest and said:

"Alright, this is interesting. I'm very interested in this knowledge."
