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

Chapter 6 Honorific Names, Sacrificial Rituals

Roy didn't step forward, but waited quietly to the side.

After a moment, the old man turned his head.

In that instant, Roy felt as if he had been scanned, and then—

He secretly rejoiced.

Fortunately, the mysterious palace was well hidden and would not reveal anything unusual to the outside world.

Otherwise, this old man would probably go crazy from being bombarded with so much information just by looking at it.

"A new spy?"

"Mr. Ryan, my name is Roy Green."

Roy stepped forward.

Richard Ryan.

The old man sat to the side. "You can call me Old Ryan like everyone else, or you can continue to call me Mr. Ryan. We don't have many staff at our bar, so there aren't many rules."

"Okay, Mr. Ryan."

Roy nodded.

Old Ryan stood up and walked to the side: "You'll be in charge of the written work for now. Take a look at our library, learn basic ritual magic, divination, astrology, and so on, understand?"

"Yes."

Roy nodded.

Old Ryan chuckled. "As a Seeker of Secrets, there's nothing wrong with having more knowledge. By the way, do you speak Hermes?"

"Thanks to the blessing of the hidden being, I have mastered the language of Hermes."

Roy answered.

Old Ryan nodded: "It's good that you've mastered it. Many spells, incantations, or extraordinary items require Hermes. If you don't know it, you may need to master it before learning other knowledge."

As he spoke, he led Roy to push open a door to the basement.

Turn on the light, and you'll see a row of bookshelves against the wall.

not much.

There are probably only thirty or forty books.

Roy took a deep breath, feeling immense pressure.

wrong.

"Perhaps I could try offering them up to the Mystic Temple, and then use the Mystic Temple's knowledge activation, information flow, and other methods to directly copy them onto the bookshelf."

But then he became somewhat troubled.

Roy has decided to use the power of the Mystic Temple as sparingly as possible within the territory of the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery.

"Mr. Ryan, may I borrow it to take home and read?"

"General esoteric knowledge such as languages is acceptable, but more important books such as magic and witchcraft are not."

Ryan said.

Roy understood.

Books containing important knowledge cannot be lent out.

Um--

also.

It can save a lot of time.

If the Hidden Sage generously imparts some important knowledge, he might be able to quickly pass through the Seeker stage and become a Sequence 8 Fighting Scholar in a month at most.

Based on the current late May calculation, Zhou Mingrui will still have about a month to go before his term ends.

He frowned, but there was nothing he could do.

Unless Roy has enough gold pounds to buy the recipe and materials on the black market, otherwise...

Even if he digests the potion in half a month or less through the mysterious hall, he still won't be able to apply for the potion from the Fighting Scholar. Instead, he will be captured and studied.

Ordinary people in this world who don't have special abilities are all governed by the basic principles of the extraordinary.

"pity."

All problems stem from poverty.

Although he had seen the Lord of Mysteries in his previous life and had many potion recipes, he did not yet have the ability to safely convert them into cash.

If only he had an angel investor like Audrey Hepburn.

Roy sighed.

"Your next task is to learn this knowledge, then participate in marksmanship training, and incidentally, participate in combat training. In short, improve your combat capabilities during this period."

Old Ryan said, "Once you've learned enough, you'll be assigned to a combat squad."

"Thank you, Mr. Ryan."

"Let's go, I'll take you to get your gun. You can go to the club next door to get training bullets and practice your marksmanship there. The people there are from our Steam Church, just give them a heads-up."

Old Ryan went on and on for quite a while.

Roy now had a comprehensive understanding of the Steam Church.

In Tingen, the Steam Church is not deeply rooted, so its industries and forces are limited, including the Mechanical Heart, which consists of only one small team.

Lasse is not the captain.

Karl is the true leader of the Mechanical Heart of the Tingen District—

Sequence 6 Mechanical Expert.

Also known as the craftsman.

Judging from his appearance and style of doing things, you would never guess that Karl is such a person, and that the leader of the Mechanical Heart has actually reached Sequence 6?

Roy was quite shocked.

After inquiring about the reason, it was learned that his purpose in staying in Tingen was to enhance the strength and expand the scale of the Tingen District's Mechanical Heart.

After receiving the gun, he walked around the area and found the club.

Colorado Club.

The boss's name is Becky Corola.

A retired military officer.

After practicing shooting for a while, he returned to the bar and began to read seriously.

Having mastered the "Language of Dragons" and "Introduction to Ritual Magic" through the mysterious temple, Roy's primary goal is to learn divination.

In the brightly lit room, you can't even tell how much time has passed.

"How is it?"

"I've memorized the pendulum method and the wand method, but I still can't understand dream divination."

Roy answered.

Old Ryan nodded with a smile: "You're already very fast. Mastering pendulum and wand techniques can solve most problems. You can gradually understand dream divination."

"Okay, may I borrow a book in Old Hermes?"

"Yes, but be careful not to lose it."

"it is good."

……

Back home, Roy ate something and used the time to recover his physical and spiritual energy before his consciousness ascended into the mystical temple.

Then, relying on his memory, he completely copied the book "The Art of Divination".

"Although I can't borrow them, I can memorize them without trying to understand them, and then comprehend and digest them through the mysterious hall."

"This can save a lot of time and energy."

Roy placed his hand on the book, and then—

Knowledge transformed into streams of information, flowing into his consciousness in an orderly fashion.

My memory hasn't changed.

but.

He felt he had mastered pendulum divination, wand divination, and dream divination, and even some of the more obscure astrological divination—

It also needs to be combined with astrology.

Before learning astrology, Roy couldn't be considered a true master of horoscope reading.

"Next is Ancient Hermes."

Compared to Hermes, Old Hermes originated from nature and had a more direct effect, but it was also more dangerous.

It is more popular with spellcasters than Hermes.

but.

Roy couldn't remember it.

So he wanted to try another approach.

Back to reality, he took out a small silver knife from his home and began setting up the ritual altar.

Ritual magic!

He wanted to emulate Klein and offer things as sacrifices in the mysterious temple.

but.

Before that, it seems he needs to get a set of honorary titles first.

Roy sighed in distress.

After pondering for a long time, he decided to imitate Bernadette and the Hidden Sage and try to create his own.

First sentence...

"Eyes that see into the future."

It is derived from the idea of a time traveler who knows the "Lord of Mysteries," and the hermit himself also has the ability of "foresight," so this sentence is not too eye-catching but can still refer to himself.

But we still need to add more.

Otherwise, they might just veer towards the Hidden Sage or some other kind of person.

carry on.

"The ruler of the mysterious temple."

"The embodiment of knowledge and numerology."

This information and numerological abilities were discovered when facing Fors in a mysterious temple.

After arranging the three sentences, he read them aloud and felt that there shouldn't be any major problems.

Give it a try!

Roy found a silver knife and began to set up his own sacrificial ritual.

then.

When you sacrifice yourself, there aren't many rules.

He hastily arranged the ceremony.
