After recovering from his physical condition, Ke Li's work efficiency has improved dramatically, and he is at ease.

Stone chips gradually accumulate under the pedal grinding wheels, and the dust does not fly everywhere, and is separated behind the "leather folding screen".

Omitting the gold lacquer and outer skin packaging process, the workload of this batch of gems can be completed overnight with the help of magic.

"There are not many raw materials, and it is estimated that 15 can be made at most."

Every time you improve your proficiency, you may have a new understanding, Ke Li did not give Mao Shi a digital label, so as not to restrict the ability to play by inertia.

In the distances of mountains and forests, the morning sun rises.

Colley glanced at the wall clock and pocket watch to confirm that it was 6 a.m.

As a traveling merchant who is his own boss, he can go out whenever he wants, but he needs to keep an eye on the time.

Nine precious stones, of different colors, resemble a handful of wonderful candies with colorful flavors, lying quietly in a red cloth wooden box.

The appetite was not particularly strong, but Ke Li's body was not resistant to the gem, but the digestion speed was not as exaggerated as the first time.

The taste of gemstones, really strange.

Some resemble plants, some resemble metal, some resemble unknown fruits, and some resemble a cup of slightly sweet and cold well water.

Colly wrote down each gemstone, but now he has no knowledge of it and no idea what the taste of the gem represents.

After taking a total of 10 gems, he felt that something had loosened in his mind, and a strange inspiration had awakened his intuition.

[Gem Realm Level 1: 0/1000 Progress - Enterable]

"Can I continue to upgrade and accumulate? This thing looks like it can be wiped out for me no matter how much money you have. ”

Ke Li had a hunch that 10 Level 1 enchanted gems were just the lowest-grade tickets, and he couldn't afford them no matter how advanced they were.

"Even if it's matryoshka mining, 10 gems for 10 rough stones, you can also cycle to hone your skills and improve your proficiency."

After arranging the explorer's clothes and tools, Corrie closed the doors and windows to make sure that the well-fed beast of burden was still asleep before lying back into bed.

"There is no combat effectiveness, and if you have more money, your hands will be hot, and this is not a peaceful era where most people follow the rules."

"I need to gain strength and open the secret realm."

In an instant, a changing light appeared in front of Ke Li's eyes.

Dizziness whirling in the sky, strange and familiar whispers.

Unable to break free from this state, the changing brilliance could not be avoided by closing his eyes, and he felt his own rapid fall.

[Level 1 Gem Secret Realm Goal: Explore occult knowledge and end the ritual.] 】

"This secret realm...... Didn't you ask me to recycle mining? ”

"Well, exploring the occult is exactly what I need, and I can't even do a proper prayer ritual right now."

Corrie wakes up in high spirits to find that he is not wearing an explorer's outfit, and even his newly purchased weapon is missing.

It is surrounded by a medieval-style fortress with slightly oppressive limestone and wooden plank structures.

Under the wide eaves of the tent, four bright kerosene lamps are hung, and under the lamps are various equipment flowing with a faint gray mist.

From the point of view of materials and quality, most of them are the supplies of the folk adventurers' guilds such as studded gloves, thin chain mail, and hard leather armor, which are far from the armor produced by the Barbarian War Workshop, nor can they reach the level of substrates for military equipment such as city fortresses.

A fat man in a yellow and white outfit is shouting at the guests, and a girl in a gray-green hooded robe is haggling with the guests.

While talking, the girl and the fat man took out a few scrolls, and the short-haired and short-bearded guest used the scrolls to break through the gray fog and leave with their equipment.

Ke Li subconsciously touched his face, and the fragments of memory poured out, and his eyes were blank:

"This is when I was a kid, when I traveled around the Griffon Empire with my family? How old am I now? ”

"The Gem Realm is not a mining realm, but a gem energy-driven ritual used to get a glimpse into the world of the past?"

Thinking of this, Ke Li inevitably felt a little painful, and it was indeed a bit extravagant to use 10 gems to force himself to cut into the plane of inspiration.

"It's not just a memory of the world, as if I was there, I smelled the aroma of oil, salt, wild vegetables, roasted dried vegetables, and bread."

Cooley secretly struggled, but he couldn't find a way out of the secret realm of the gem and end the mysterious ritual in his mind.

"The power of the enchanted gem is not unlimited, and when the power is consumed, the ritual will definitely end naturally."

Thinking of this, Ke Li relaxed again, like a traveler in a foreign land, curiously looking at the people and things around him.

The fragments of memory are like the ice and snow that have gone through the cold winter and then met the spring sun and melted silently, gradually forming a trickle of thumb width.

Everything in front of me has become more real again, but there is a vague feeling of illusory isolation in my heart, and I can't really grasp it.

"There are very few alien races in the Griffon Empire, and there are usually only barbarians, dwarves, and elves who can mix with the human race."

"The city where I live is called Modong City, and the promotion of steam machinery technology began many years ago, and the metal rails and the division of municipal blocks have turned the old castle and city walls into historical and cultural heritage, which seems a little out of place compared to the current era."

"The newly painted apartments and buildings are a bit modern, while the Mammoth Horn is relatively backward and primitive, probably because some aliens have no need to use transportation at all, so the demand and development in this area is also completely deserted."

"However, it seems that due to the limitations of memory and the perspective of the contact, these people who came to Gid and Calika to buy enchanted equipment were all contacts, not the transcendents themselves."

Colley's eyes were deep, and he remembered that there were many true god sects and their beliefs in the Griffon Empire, and the spread of faith was also very extensive.

It can be said that almost all people are believers, and there is only a difference between believing more and believing less.

Within the Gryphon Empire, faith is often tied to a profession, somewhat similar to the ancestral beliefs of the Snowy Barbarians.

Like Gid and Carika, who believe in the gods of wealth and abundance, they can often be seen making small gestures of prayer.

Like Colkan, who believed in the Ancestor of Fury and Rhythm, he obtained the Legendary Gem through the Trials and mastered the Warcry trait.

The changes of the times and technology, the degeneration or transformation of churches and dynasties, and the alternation of monarchy and theocracy are all shrouded in mystery.

Within the territory of the Gryphon Empire, the popular civic beliefs were mainly the Moonlight Church.

And the belief in the purgatory path and the demon sequence is the relatively unpopular [God of the Father of Courage and Hunting], also known as the Church of Brave Hunting.

On the surface, the Church of the Brave Hunt is not a mysterious underground organization.

However, the upper limit is the same as the Moonlight Church, which is a branch stationed in the town, and cannot be compared with the size of the main church.

"I didn't follow the barbarian to shout that the ancestors were on top a few years ago, and I got out of the humanistic environment of the Griffin Empire, coupled with the recent temporary residence in Mammoth Horn, so I have never had the habit of praying for a while. Speaking of which, should I consider learning a little bit as the locals do? ”

Colly tries to imitate Gid and Cariga, but finds the move boring and pointless, with no devout beliefs at all.

He prefers to quietly watch the situation unfold and not show flaws.

When the time comes, then cut to the point with great precision.

"Maybe we should visit the Chapel of the Hunt?" Mammothhorn is far away from Ink Winter City, and there is no steam train across the wilderness, so it is unexpected.

After all, 10 level 1 gems were paid, and it would be too much of a loss if you hung up and waited until the ceremony was over.

Colley's mind was divergent, and he walked outside as if no one was around, trying to pursue the map and clues in his memory, but was stopped by someone:

"Collie, where are you going?" When I looked back, it was my sister Kaliga.

Compared with Kalija before the family was dismantled, she had not yet shed her youth and immaturity, and her smile carried a hint of sorrow:

"Dinner is a dinner party, Dad is going to eat with the guests, do you want to go to the restaurant with me and eat alone?"

Ke Li's pace froze, and he walked away quickly with a vague word: "I'll come back casually, don't worry about me." ”

Calriga sighed, her lips squirming slightly, but she didn't say much.

Colly walked away and crept back home to watch, and found that neither Caliga nor Gid had reacted to him.

Follow the walls to the gate and observe the outside of the city.

The picture becomes a little bizarre: the sky inside the town walls is cloudy, while outside the city is the golden warm sun of the autumn wheat waves.

In the distance are windmills and farmland, with scarecrows swaying in the wind and farmers working in the blur.

The unique aroma of ripe wheat spreads in the wind and sun and the pecking of birds.

Three pounds of coarse wheat can be sold for two pennies, ground into flour and baked into bread, which has become a coarse and unpalatable daily staple for poor families.

"Maybe it's the memories of different periods, which are blended together by the plane of inspiration."

"If there weren't so many costs and hidden dangers, I really wanted to find a reclining chair to sleep on the wheat ridge."

Collie dismissed the idea of going deep into the wheat field to find a deck chair to sleep in, and turned to go into the city.

The streets were bustling with people, and the whistle of a steam engine was sharp and abrupt.

Colly tried to talk to a passer-by, and although he couldn't remember the other person's face, he still got reliable information:

"Hunt the Church? You look pretty sven, huh......"

"In the south of the city, the Brave Hunting Church is at 27 Homp Street, and you can find the exact location if you see a big dog nearby."

"Big dog?" Colley tried to recall.

There is indeed a big orange-eyed dog with black skin and orange belly and smooth coat in the memory.

It was a dog that he had transferred to Ink Winter City when he was a child, and he had been impressed.

"When I was a child, I loved animals, but I never allowed pets at home, saying that I was worried about interfering with the prayer ceremony and causing the dissatisfaction of the god of wealth and affecting business, so I also brought snacks to feed the big dog from time to time after school, I remember it was called Bobby."

"The merchant's child is not an aristocrat, and I was quite stressed during my academic career, and my animal companions spent lonely times with me."

"Because of the nature of my family's business, I was always forced to leave school and the people I knew and go somewhere else to readjust to everything. I should be 13~16 years old in Ink Winter City, and I haven't finished my studies yet, so I've been here for at least 5 years. ”

"Now that I think about it, when my family went bankrupt and displaced, I left the empire and went to the snowy region, in fact, there was some sadness and anger. I despaired of a world full of gambling dogs and scammers, and was desperate to master authentic and stable techniques to make a living from it. ”

"It's a pity, I didn't expect the barbarian to be a liar too."

Inadvertently, the corners of his mouth pulled into a shallow smile.

Colley stopped, groped around for a while, pulled out a money pouch from his left chest, and poured out a coin of 2 gold pounds, 16 soles, and 18 pence.

That's about a decent worker's wages and living expenses for a week in a small and medium-sized city like Modong.

Although the status is not high, there is a lot of pocket money, and the treasure business of enchanted equipment is much more profitable than ordinary ways.

"Poppy is a big fan of meat and cookies, and I remember rubbing it around, but it never seemed to dig through the garbage heap."

"Let's get some meat and snacks for it, I'm a little hungry, huh...... Where is the food store on that street? ”

Colly habitually walked down the familiar street, his eyes moving slightly, and then stepped into the fragrant barbecue restaurant.

I saw that all kinds of iron plates were written on wooden chips, and the price of a 10-pound piece of honey-spiced roast meat was 5 sules and 9 pence.
