Jenny touched her third eye and could only give a bitter smile.

“At least, once you become a first-tier Apostle, you can conceal this eye…

as long as you don’t intentionally show it off in front of the Nature Guardians, there shouldn’t be any problems.”

“But what about before that?

I still need to go home, I still need to go to school…”

Jenny was on the verge of tears.

“No need to worry about that for now, you can disguise yourself for the time being.”

Su Lu smiled, pulling out a rounded black felt hat.

“It’s called ‘Deceiver,’ a Marvel that can change a person’s face.

You could try it on.”

Jenny took it, somewhat skeptically.

After putting it on, she closed her eyes, and the third eye on her forehead also shut, leaving not even a trace behind.

“It’s incredible…”

“This is just a Marvel I casually created; it has a singular function, it’s nothing much…

Although it consumes very little from ordinary people, the consumption is still there, so…

become a Transcendent as soon as possible, or else the headaches will always accompany you…” Su Lu reminded her.

“I understand, ‘Spider Saint Marks,’ right?”

Jenny clenched her fist.

“I will try my best to track it down.”

“In fact…

I have mastered it!” Su Lu coughed, unsurprised to see Jenny’s mouth form an ‘O’ shape.

“After all, I am also a Transcendent.

Of course, I only possess the most basic first-tier integration formula; as for the rest, you’ll have to figure out the method on your own.”

Su Lu casually pointed.

Click!

Above the desk, a fountain pen levitated, swiftly writing on the white paper: “Ingredients: pure water, hemolytic herb, mouseberry plum, spider silk, mistletoe leaves, Black Demon Spider’s active blood…

manufacturing methods…

application methods…”

“Many of these things can be collected from everyday life, a few might be troublesome…

especially the Black Demon Spider’s active blood, however, it also has applications in other Mysterious fields…”

Su Lu rolled up the paper and stuffed it into Jenny’s hands.

“I know a black market where you might find what you need.

Hmm…

Let’s go there at nine o’clock Thursday night.”

“Thank you…

mentor.”

Jenny sincerely thanked him, touching her hat.

If going to the black market, a hat that could change appearances would undoubtedly come in very handy.

“Also…

don’t forget your design homework, I have already promised the dean that it will win an award…”

Su Lu added with a smile.

…

Thursday night.

After dressing up, Jenny arrived at the dock area, a place she would not easily visit.

Now, dressed in a simple factory girl’s outfit, her nose bridge high, her skin and eye color subtly adjusted, she looked like a completely different person.

‘This place really is terrible, full of drunkards, contraband, and all sorts of odd things…’

‘Dad warned me before not to come here…

It’s full of thugs, very troublesome.’

‘But I didn’t expect that under the cover of black market trades, there would be transactions of Transcendent items.’

Jenny looked around nervously, anxiously waiting.

Her appearance clearly made her look like a novice, attracting the gaze of hungry wolves.

A few vagrants had already approached, grinning, their dark yellow teeth showing.

“Little girl…

wanna have some fun at the bar?”

“Sorry…

she’s taken.”

Su Lu came over dressed in a black trench coat, smiling as he lifted a corner of his coat to reveal a black gun holster.

Seeing this, the homeless people promptly shut their mouths and returned to their respective places.

“Let’s go!”

Su Lu approached Jenny, smiling as he spoke.

“Teacher…

how did you know…”

Jenny asked, somewhat bewildered.

She had clearly changed her face already.

“You’ll understand once you become an ‘Apostle’!”

Su Lu took the lead, signaling Jenny to follow.

After traversing a narrow passage, a dark alley appeared before Jenny.

Both sides were filled with various makeshift shacks that encroached upon the street, crowded with people mostly wearing gray and black robes, their faces hidden by hoods.

‘I didn’t even know…

there was an alley hidden here…’

Jenny mumbled to herself.

Soon after, she saw an old woman, akin to a witch, approaching.

The woman had barely any white hair on her head, opened a pitch-black bag, and with a bone-chilling laugh said, “Beautiful one…

care to take a look…

the eggs of an ancient toad and Fish People’s ointment…

I assure you, it’s genuine, can keep your skin moist continuously…”

Jenny curiously glanced inside the bag and saw what seemed to be several eyeballs staring straight at her, making her shiver.

Su Lu, uninterested, parted the crowd and entered a shop.

“Isn’t this our ‘mentor’ Mr.

Su!”

The lighting inside the shop was dim, crowded with all sorts of oddly shaped props, with two axes crossed and mounted on the wall.

Behind the counter stood a young gentleman dressed very neatly and refined, yet out of place amidst the filthy, cramped street.

His complexion was pale, and his eyes blood-red, greeting Su Lu as if meeting an old friend.

“This is Geno, the vampire merchant.

His reputation on this street is barely acceptable…”

Su Lu told Jenny, “He is also a referrer for the private gatherings of the Transcendents, attended by the Apostles…”

“No, there are some of The Fallen too, although they are not in great mental condition, they indeed have some good things…” Geno corrected with a sly smile, looking at Jenny, “Beautiful miss, what is your code name?”

“Steam!”

Jenny’s eyes twinkled, “Please call me Lady Steam!”

“Of course, Lady Steam, what may I assist you with this time?” Geno bowed, “Our store’s Marvel items are high quality and reasonably priced, very suitable for beginners!”

“Cough cough…

don’t bring out those counterfeit items devoid of any ‘Spirit’ just to embarrass yourself.”

Su Lu gestured to Jenny to take out the shopping list, “How about it?

Can you gather everything?”

“Black Demon Spider blood, this is extremely rare material, but our store still has three portions preserved, all maintained viable through rituals…”

Geno, unfazed, flashed a merchant’s smile, “Just for 100 Gold Coins, or an equivalent item…”

“Done.”

Su Lu threw out a red gemstone.

Geno appraised it briefly, quickly accepted it, and went to the back closet to take out various materials, placing them into a black briefcase.

“Teacher…”

Jenny whispered, “I will definitely pay back what I owe…”

She felt slightly embarrassed, but she really couldn’t afford this amount of money on her own.

“No worries, I believe in your repayment abilities!” Su Lu responded with a smile.
