Mystery: I, the Hermit, am too eager to improve

Chapter 144 Praising the Great and Mysterious Queen!

Materials research is tedious.

Even though Roy possesses a mysterious temple that can eliminate the repeated waste process and can quickly derive results using simulation.

but.

This will still take a long time.

By the next day.

Roy has been experimenting with various materials, simulating almost every material along this path dozens of times.

even.

He even simulated some of them in real life.

The conclusion is...

The higher the elevation, the more powerful the effect, but correspondingly, the more uncontrollable it becomes, and the lower the chance of it being used as a weeding material.

Currently, Roy has found two materials that are most suitable for him.

One type is the golden-edged sunflower.

It is an auxiliary material for Sequence 8 Prayer of Light. When used as a weeding technique, it is more stable and covers a wider area than the powdered scraps of the Singing Sunflower.

of course.

The weeding effect is slightly less than ideal.

If the plants you are growing are highly resistant to the sun, you can use this material for large-scale weed control.

The second is the blood of the rooster at dawn.

This is also an auxiliary material for the solar pathway. Just 10 milliliters of blood mixed into 100g of ink can perfectly achieve a powerful effect.

Materials that can be used to manipulate the power of the wind...

It can cover an entire field, turning all the weeds into ashes, but this is only the first step.

These weed-killing rolls can only brutally cover an area, destroying all plant life. Roy's goal is to create magic rolls that are effective only on a limited area.

but.

During the manufacturing process, he conceived of another possible form of witchcraft.

Toxins for weed control.

After reaching the Harvest Priest, the cultivators gained a preliminary understanding and mastery of the soil, but this was also a kind of natural force.

Roy's initial idea was...

They attempted to achieve a similar effect to soil fertilization through witchcraft, but unfortunately, they failed.

That doesn't seem to fall under the category of witchcraft.

but.

He found a capability in the opposite direction.

toxin!

Toxins can be controlled.

Poison gas magic exists in witchcraft, but its practicality is not very high.

Its power is not as stable or strong as that of a biologist, and it is highly dependent on the condition of the surrounding soil, so its uses are not very extensive.

but.

If one can actively accumulate poisonous medicinal herbs and use a magic scroll to extract and mobilize the toxins within, then use them to combat weeds...

feasible.

But it's also very difficult.

To achieve targeted release of toxins, either the user must possess extremely high levels of intuitive control, or the toxins and the reel must be made as precise as possible.

Both are extremely difficult.

In comparison, controlling wind and heat is currently easier to achieve, and any extraordinary person can more or less master some of the effects.

Later on, it's possible that ordinary people will also be able to use it.

but.

That depends on subsequent development and the wisdom of future generations.

Roy chuckled softly and began to prepare the Dawn Rooster Blood Ink according to the specified ratio, while using the most common and versatile sheepskin scroll for the scroll itself.

Half an hour later, he produced the first "enhanced" weeding technique scroll.

"It can be used as a sample now."

Roy smiled.

Once you receive reimbursement, you naturally need to report your work progress from time to time.

This applies everywhere.

Thanks to his research on the lawnmower roll, he could feel his potion being digested a little more.

The direction is correct.

Continuing to study these types of scrolls can effectively help with digestion.

……

"Father, these are the first batch of scrolls I've made. They're made from sunflowers, so they're cheap and inexpensive, but the quality is just average."

"In addition, I've thought of a type of scroll—"

Roy explained his idea of ​​"poison weeding".

He was certainly not explaining to the priest.

Utravsky was merely a conduit through which he could effectively transmit this part of the message to Mother Earth.

Although I am also a member of the Beloved, but...

He could sense that Lilith wasn't staring at him for very long; at least, he didn't feel any staring when he entered the mysterious temple from the outside.

After a moment, Utravsky opened his eyes.

"You can come and pick up the materials this afternoon."

"grateful."

Roy smiled and nodded.

We've found our direction!

Just focus on farming and harvesting resources. Although you won't get any money, you'll still get some materials.

not to mention.

Besides the materials, there's also the "digestion progress," which is the truly valuable asset.

but.

He has one more thing to take care of.

……

West End, Williams Street.

Outside Viscount Zabia’s house, Roy disguised himself with the “useless mask” and sat in a nearby café.

After sitting for a while, he saw a woman come out of the house.

This was an unfamiliar face; she wore glasses and her gaze seemed casual, but she was actually closely observing her surroundings.

A voyeur.

Roy thought to himself.

He couldn't tell what the specific sequence was yet, but there was no doubt that the other party was a Seeker of Secrets, and most likely a subordinate of the Morse Ascetic Order.

He waited quietly and patiently, reading a book on farming techniques.

This contains information about various weeds and plants.

The Church of the Earth has cultivated the land for so many years and accumulated a great deal of knowledge in this field. Even setting aside their extraordinary abilities, they are still experts in farming.

Simple and straightforward weeding can be done directly with the current rollers, without Roy needing to do in-depth research.

but.

To achieve deeper improvements, even as a rolling mill professor, he needs to fully understand the cultivation process and the characteristics of weeds.

Only in this way can we find the right solution.

After watching for more than two hours, Roy was considering whether to call Gary out, but then he noticed—

The woman led Dilline out from the other side of the house.

Although she disguised herself, and Dilline also underwent a transformation, such simple modifications were unlikely to fool the eagle eyes of Sequence 6.

after all.

Even after reaching Sequence 6, the Eye of the Secrets still cannot be turned off, but it can see further and see more things.

With the help of a powerful memory...

Roy only needs to remember a person's spiritual body, astral body, and etheric body to roughly identify who that person is.

after all.

Everyone's limbs are slightly different, and it's rare to find two people who are exactly the same.

Roy quickly put on his Concealment Ring and quietly followed.

Once outside the street, they boarded a public carriage.

Roy also appeared from the shadows and boarded the carriage.

When they arrived in the Hillston district, he saw the woman get out of the car in front of a small library, and Roy followed her out and entered the library before them.

Then, he used the Ring of Concealment in the library's restroom.

Unless the other party is a Sequence 5 or higher Spy, they cannot see through the concealment effect, but according to the intelligence obtained previously...

There probably aren't many people who can see through secrets in Backlund at Sequence 5 or higher.

The wizard who had previously possessed only one Sequence 5 and one Sequence 4, and this configuration was actually quite luxurious—

If we ignore the fact that Bernadette is a Sequence 2.

Roy searched the library for a while and finally found them again in a secluded corridor.

They were sitting in a quiet room talking.

Roy was outside and couldn't hear anything coming from inside.

They may have lowered their voices, or used a spiritual wall in conjunction with the ritual to isolate themselves from the outside world.

but.

He has a way.

Go next door, ascend to the mysterious hall, and then—

Using the "Wheel of Fortune" card to create a spiritual clone, it manipulates and infiltrates the next room.

He, lurking among the walls, peered through a crack in the window. The woman and Dillian were sitting opposite each other.

Then, the female spy took out a pot.

"Making potions isn't actually that difficult."

"As long as you strictly follow the recipe's proportions, low-sequence potions can be easily made."

"Put in the auxiliary materials first..."

As she spoke, she systematically placed the auxiliary materials inside, preparing the "Secret Seeker" potion that Roy had once taken.

Dillian stared at the pot.

She was silent for a few seconds, then said, "Ms. Fias, if I drink it, will I become a true Seer of Secrets?"

"Yes."

Fias chuckled softly, "You're already half a Spy, and you've received some indoctrination over time, so becoming a Spy won't be difficult for you."

"How so?"

"Among the extraordinary, there exists a method called 'acting.' As long as one acts in accordance with the rules of the potion, one can quickly digest and master its power."

Fias said, "For you, you actually started digesting the potion during your half-secret-hunting period."

"So that's how it is."

Dilline suddenly realized, and then her expression became somewhat dazed.

That being the case...

Why does that guy look down on me?

She didn't quite understand.

Originally, according to her idea, she should have been able to gain more benefits by choosing between the two sides.

result.

To everyone's surprise, the man named "Luo Lin" had given up on her from the very beginning.

This made her very unwilling.

however.

If it means betraying that gentleman...

She had considered it, but the other party's methods were so terrifying that she wasn't sure what to do.

Dilline hesitated.

"Alright, drink it."

"Yes."

Dilline took the glass, picked it up, and drank it all in one gulp, her expression resolute.

A little while later.

A deep look of pain crossed her face, and various murmurs echoed in her ears, the indoctrination of a hidden sage...

coming!

"Don't struggle, accept the transformation by the Hidden Sage, He will make you more suitable for this path."

"Fias said gently."

"Yes, no struggling, no..."

Although Dilline said she wouldn't struggle, Roy could actually see her emotions churning rapidly and intensely.

She is not someone who willingly accepts being reformed.

From the very beginning, Roy could tell that she was extremely proud and would never allow her will to be transformed into that of a hidden sage.

however.

She was unaware of the effects of the Eye of Secrets.

Fias smiled faintly, "Child, I can see clearly whether you are resisting or not. Why resist the great Hidden Sage?"

"I will not become anyone else!"

Dilling gritted her teeth and persevered, her face contorted in a grimace—

Even though she didn't know how the other person knew what she was thinking, she had clearly controlled her expression very well before.

"That's not up to you."

Fias's expression was cold. "Why do you think I brought you here? Here, no one can interfere with us. If you're unwilling to accept the transformation by the Hidden Sage, then..."

"Die, go mad, or be transformed by me. Choose one now."

Her face was cold and crazed.

This is the state of a faithful follower of the Morse Order.

They were transformed by the Hidden Sages, their divinity far outweighing their humanity, and they acted entirely rationally, devoid of personal emotions.

not to mention.

She and Dilline never really had any feelings for each other.

Fias approached step by step, while Dillin kept retreating. Just then, a piece of information suddenly entered her mind.

Master and understand the knowledge that has been imparted.

This is……

She was shocked, but quickly tried to understand and master the knowledge that had been imparted to her, as instructed by the other party.

This knowledge largely forms the basis of language and ritual magic.

Although it's a bit difficult, it's something that Dilline, who has loved reading since she was little, can do very easily.

She quickly stepped back while trying to understand and digest the information.

soon.

The murmurs grew fainter.

It works!

But even so, she couldn't hide it from the other party.

Just then, she felt a protective force.

Then—

The babbling disappeared quickly and briefly.

She quickly said, "I'm starting the transformation, please don't kill me."

"Oh?"

Fia raised an eyebrow.

She gazed at the other person and noticed that their emotions had indeed changed rapidly from pain to calm, even with a hint of pleasure.

This is submission.

A slight smile played on her lips.

"That's right. As long as you receive the indoctrination of the great Hidden Sage, you can quickly advance on this path and soon become an extraordinary being of the middle or even high sequence."

"Yes, I have already felt His greatness!"

A smile appeared on Dillian's face.

They managed to fool the other party.

I don't know who protected me, even Fia didn't realize it, and the way they did it was so mysterious...

saved!

No.

Perhaps this is an opportunity.

She was overjoyed, which further confirmed to Fia that the other party had truly accepted the transformation.

"You should have already gained some knowledge, right?"

"Yes, Hermes language, and some basic ritual magic. Although simple, they really introduced me to mystical knowledge."

Dilline said respectfully, "Praise be to you, and to the great Hidden Sage!"

"I am merely a Sequence 7 wizard, unworthy to be compared to the great Hidden Sage."

Fias said with a smile, "Now that you've been indoctrinated, you're one of us, a member of our Morse Ascetic Order."

"Thank you for your guidance, and Mr. Irvine as well."

Dilline said sincerely.

Fias sat down, her expression becoming kind and friendly, as if the terrifying and ferocious person from just moments before was not her.

"You have become a seer of secrets, so every now and then you will receive a gift from the hidden sage, which you will gradually digest."

"No books needed?"

"Yes."

Fias laughed, "That's the greatness of the Hidden Sage. He selflessly and gratuitously provides help to all extraordinary beings of the same order. It's a pity that some people can't understand it and even oppose Him."

"Who is it?"

Dilline showed anger.

Fias said sternly, "Elemental Dawn, remember this name, they are our greatest enemy!"

"Yes, if I have any news in this regard, I will definitely let you know as soon as possible."

"Very good. Did you see the notice board in the lobby when you came in?"

"Yes."

Dilline nodded gently.

She noticed that there was a large notice board in the lobby with some stickers on it, but she didn't know what it was for.

"That's the list of borrowers. If you want to contact us, just borrow a 'Mysterious Book' in your own name."

Fias said, "Come back to return the book after three days. I'll be waiting for you here."

"Understood."

Dilline nodded, then asked curiously, "Is there anything special about the Book of Mysteries?"

"No, it's just a simple, rudimentary notebook. The author was once a Sequence 9 spy, but he went mad later."

Fia replied calmly.

"I will do as you say, but what if I have something urgent I need to see you about?"

Dilline quickly asked again.

Fias laughed and said, "If that's the case, just borrow a novel called 'Spying,' and our people will come to see you immediately."

"Yes."

"If there are no other questions, let's call it a day. You can study and read here."

Fias said, "Actively acquiring knowledge will definitely be helpful to you."

"Okay, thank you, Ms. Fias."

"It's alright. We've all joined the Morse Order, so we're comrades in life and death. We'll do everything we can to help you if you need anything."

She rose gracefully and left with a smile.

After the wizard left, Dillian looked around, searching for any possible presence, but...

No.

The other party was very mysterious and seemed unwilling to see her.

She was disappointed.

Squeak—

The door was pushed open, and a figure walked in.

She looked up.

Rowling!

Roy smiled slightly: "Let me introduce myself again, I am Element Dawn, Roylin."

"It's you!"

Dilling was utterly astonished and exclaimed in shock, "How could you possibly have that ability...?"

That power just now could even block the infusion of the Hidden Sage, how could it possibly be the work of this person? She couldn't believe it.

"Of course I can't do that."

Roy chuckled softly, "But in the extraordinary realm, there are many incredible beings, and our leader of the Elemental Dawn is one such being."

"Even in Dawn of Elements, there are hidden sages?"

Dilline asked cautiously.

Roy shook his head: "I don't know, but I do know that the Dawn of Elements has a mysterious queen. She is a great figure in the mystical world and could even be called a god in ancient times."

"It was she who sheltered you just now."

From God...

Dilline didn't know what "from God" meant, but after experiencing a life-or-death situation, she understood one thing.

One's own life and talents are insignificant in the face of truly great figures.

The other party didn't care about someone as insignificant as her at all.

Mr. Rowling's previous reluctance to help her was probably partly due to this reason—

Waiting for the best price to sell is indeed a common tactic used by nobles.

But the problem is...

She doesn't have that kind of value.

Dilline paused for a few seconds, then said, "You've come to see me at this time because you want me to become your undercover agent?"

"clever."

Roy chuckled. "Miss Dillin, you have a quick mind and are very suitable as an undercover agent. All we need to do is correct one of your minor flaws."

Dilline was silent for a few seconds, then asked, "What benefits will I get?"

"The help from the Dawn of Elements is far more powerful than you imagine. Besides, don't you want that miraculous protection you just experienced?"

Roy's lips curled into a slight smile.

Dillian lowered her head.

She knew she had no choice—

Unless she really wants to be transformed by the Hidden Sage into someone like Fias, but she's not willing to.

"I will do as you say."

"It's just a collaboration; we each get what we need, it's not a one-sided demand."

Roy said.

Dilline nodded gently.

Putting aside the past, the other party was indeed much more benevolent than the Hidden Sages and the Morse Ascetic Order.

The difference between the two is...

One is outwardly kind, the other is kind to the core.

She took a deep breath.

"Sir, what's next for me..."

"Rapid promotion."

Roy said, "You're still too weak. After becoming a Seer, you should have realized that the lower sequence of this path doesn't provide any combat ability boost."

Dillian nodded silently.

Then, Roy smiled and said, "You can ask me any questions you have now."

"I want to know, what exactly is the Hidden Sage? Can we...can we defeat Him?"

Dillian bit her lip.

That's a god!

Even if it's just an evil god, but...

For an organization to want to fight against an evil god is far too arrogant.

"Didn't you just witness that? The great, mysterious queen can help you without you even noticing, and the Hidden Sage is mostly unaware of her presence, so you don't need to worry about it too much."

"Most of the time?"

"Yes, occasionally He will show special concern for someone and impart special knowledge to them."

Roy replied, "The essence of this behavior is to hope that the other party will accept one's indoctrination and transformation; He has always been enthusiastic about this."

"I see."

Dillian lowered her head.

Immediately, she looked up, but the other person had already disappeared from her sight.

This……

It's a mysterious world.

She paused, looked out the window, and felt a pang of regret.
