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

Chapter 19, the third person, Leonard

Hyde's face stiffened.

Then he chuckled and said, "Of course, I can buy it, and at a price that will absolutely satisfy you."

At that moment, the coffee was served.

The two remained silent until the waiter had walked away, at which point Hyde said, "I have two extraordinary items that I don't need that I can trade. One is the Rage Mask, which enhances combat abilities, and the power boost is even stronger when enraged."

nice one.

If I were to be active at sea, it would definitely be an essential item.

Roy thought for a moment and decided to continue listening.

"The other is the Courage Pendant. Once activated, it can emit light and song, enhancing your strength and courage."

Hyde said.

Roy asked, "What about the negative effects?"

"You are prone to becoming irritable and easily angered. You need to control your emotions or vent your anger, otherwise you will be controlled by your anger."

Hyde said, "The latter will make you love to sing praises to the sun, until you become a believer in the eternal sun, and its effect is indiscriminate."

The advantages and disadvantages are both obvious.

One is crafted using the extraordinary traits of the Wrathful People, and the other should be crafted using the traits of the Lightbringer.

They can all enhance their combat power.

In terms of value, the other party undoubtedly paid a significant premium.

He thought for a moment, then cautiously asked, "What price do I need to pay?"

"You need to pay an additional 100 gold pounds."

Hyde said, "As you said, we have a common enemy. If you are willing to join the Elemental Dawn, then it is yours. Not only that, when you advance to Sequence 7, you can buy wizard recipes from us at a discount."

Roy remained silent.

One hundred gold pounds? He simply didn't have that much money.

The bait smells so good!

The Rage Mask can enhance combat capabilities, making you stronger in water battles.

The Courage Pendant enhances his combat power and has a special effect against corpses and ghosts.

but.

The latter is indiscriminate...

This means that the opponent will also receive an amplification when they are near the sound or light, and by the time he wants to use the pendant, the opponent will definitely be right next to him, forcing him to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

and so.

The choice is obvious.

"I choose the Rage Mask."

Roy said.

"Welcome to the team, my friend."

Hyde smiled. "It will only be triggered when you wear it, so the negative effects are actually still controllable. Now it's yours."

"Mr. Hyde, where are you going next? What should I do after joining the Elemental Dawn?"

Roy asked in a low voice.

"This mysterious queen didn't mention anything, she just said that I came to Tingen and would meet a potential espionage seeker. I didn't expect it to go so smoothly."

Hyde handed him a thin mask.

"The enemy of my enemy is my friend; I have always believed that."

Roy calmly accepted it.

He wanted to find a way to leave the Steam Church, but he also had to be wary of and target the Morse Order. Going against the Morse Order was an organization that gathered secret seekers, and the people behind it were trustworthy.

not to mention.

Joining also has its advantages, and the Mysterious Queen is not a god, she is only Sequence 3 at present, so she is not as much of a threat to him as the God of Steam and Machines.

What reason is there to refuse?

At least he couldn't have imagined it.

"Mr. Hyde, if I may be so bold as to ask, where do you plan to go next? If you return the way you came, it will probably take a month or two, won't it?"

Roy said.

Hyde nodded: "Yes, I should be here for a while to work on my promotion application."

Having the support of the organization makes things much easier.

The Mysterious Queen most likely still holds the Hermit card.

Roy thought for a moment and said, "What materials do you need? Perhaps I can help you search for them. You can also check out the Dragon Bar, which is the largest underground market in Tingen, but I suggest you stay away from it for a while."

"Um."

Hyde wholeheartedly agreed, "I will be cautious enough during this period."

"Since you don't intend to leave Tingen, I have a collaboration idea. What do you think?"

Roy's lips curled into a slight smile. "You chose to find me here, probably to avoid the Morse Penitentiary. Why don't we join forces and hunt him down together?"

Hyde paused for a moment, then spoke softly.

"The instigator and the person behind him may be watching me. I need to be extra careful during this time, at most a week. After a week, I will leave Tingen for Backlund."

Roy was somewhat disappointed.

He thought he had found a reliable partner, but it turned out the other party only planned to stay in Tingen for a week.

He hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not try to dissuade him.

Unforeseen circumstances, such as remaining in Tingen, might actually bring danger to Hyde.

This is a reminder from his latent memory.

"I will be leaving the West District tomorrow. I would appreciate it if you could keep an eye on things from the shadows and we could hunt down this member of the Morse Penitentiary together."

"That's feasible."

Roy concealed the rage mask, bid farewell to Wizard Hyde, and returned to the club to continue his training.

……

In the evening, Roy returned home.

He still sent the flying squirrel to patrol around for a while, and after confirming that there was no surveillance, he entered the mysterious hall.

Inside the hall, he regained his memory.

"Perhaps Bernadette has a new prophecy, or perhaps it's something else, but without a doubt, Dawn of Elements is relatively trustworthy and someone I can rely on."

"Mr. Hyde must leave Tingen."

Roy sorted out his thoughts.

As an outsider, Hyde is a distraction in Ince's script, and this inept screenwriter will certainly try to get rid of him. At this moment, Ince's attention may even be focused on Hyde.

He tried to use divination, but failed to detect anything unusual about his fate.

perhaps.

At this moment, Ince had not yet noticed Hyde.

Roy thought to himself.

However, he still decided to visit Mr. Azik tomorrow.

That angel on earth possessed the ability to see the unusual aspects of other people's fates. In the original story, it was he who reminded Klein, and during his visit, he casually revealed some of the information he had gathered.

It wasn't a fabrication; he did indeed collect some information about "immortality."

After sorting out his thoughts, Roy opened the star map.

Above, the stars twinkled, their brightness fluctuating, with only one purple star shining through.

klein.

Roy doesn't plan to make contact with the other party until they become a fortune teller.

An ordinary person cannot bring any knowledge, and his reasons for contacting others are improper, which will arouse Klein's suspicion and vigilance.

After scanning the area, Roy's gaze fell upon a dim star near Klein.

He focused his spirituality, hoping to "see" the other person's identity directly through the dim stars, like purple starlight.

pity.

With his current level of spirituality, it seems he cannot do it yet.

Roy sighed softly, glanced around, and finally fixed his gaze on a peculiar star that flickered between light and shadow—

It is very close to Klein's star point.

After pondering for a long time, he pointed his finger and decided to verify his conjecture.

The next instant, a figure appeared before them.

This is a young man holding a book.

of course.

Upon reaching the mysterious hall, his book failed to climb up, thus remaining in an odd posture.

The numerological Roy watched him quietly.

With black hair and green eyes, and slightly long hair, he was very handsome, but his demeanor was extremely carefree.

A name came to Roy's mind.

Leonard Mitchell.

He immediately understood the reason for the uncertainty of light and dark—

The influence of Palez Soroyas!

As a Sequence 1 angel, even a slight influence is enough to transform into a bright star.

really.

The brighter the star, the more powerful its knowledge.
