Chapter 135: Hugh: Mr. Fool, I didn't mean to

"Thank you, ma'am, your help is vital to me."

Klein thanked him from the bottom of his heart.

Lovia chuckled, "Your help is important to me, and nothing is more important to people in desperate situations than food. ”

"Yes, I'll do it as soon as possible, do you have any food requirements?"

"Shelf-stable, because I don't know how long I'm going to have to go through the rubble, so I need as much food as I can and store it for longer."

"As for the taste, it doesn't matter, as long as it's safe and edible." ”

Klein nodded: "I'll go and collect it, at most a day, I'll ask Mr. Hermit to help convey it." ”

"Thank you."

Lovia thanked her very graciously.

The deal between the two is over.

Roy sent them back to reality and sat in their seats, thinking back to what had just happened, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart-

Worthy of Elder Lovia.

As an insider, he just didn't expose it, and Lovia set up her own adventurer with a story.

Moreover.

She used this as a foreshadowing to give herself the opportunity to trade food with Klein......

Such abilities.

It's no wonder that she survived the wilderness time and time again, eventually becoming the shepherd of Sequence 5 as the elder of Silver City.

But this is also after providing shelter to yourself.

Roy looked at the bookshelf.

There will be a stack of babble every day, many of which are repeated, but the syllables and intonation will be different.

If you are under such a voice every day......

I'm afraid it's hard to think rationally.

Roy sighed, then gathered his thoughts.

Klein still encountered the Demon Dog, so he will still encounter the Apostle of Desire in the future, which is an inevitable development.

But.

Jason's main goal is not to hunt Duke Negan, but to hunt Duke Negan, and in the end Crane should be fine.

Besides, even if there is something, it is useless.

It's hard to protect yourself on your own side.

If the person who lured Mrs. Makht to the Harvest Chapel was a mysterious attendant, it meant that her whereabouts had been revealed.

Roy pondered for a moment, then picked up the pendant for divination.

After a few seconds—

The pendant turns clockwise, but very slowly.

This means......

The other party didn't know where he was, but he knew that it was probably in the Southern District.

Roy continued his divination.

"My wizard plays a revealing whereabouts."

The pendant turns clockwise, but again not very fast.

Not the only reason, there are other factors that play a role.

Roy experimented with several divination phrases, such as the psychiatrist whom Mrs. Maher met as a mysterious attendant.

But.

Failed.

There is too little information to accurately divinate the results.

He is mentally prepared for this, divination is not omnipotent, it needs to have enough information before the spirit world can give enough hints.

"Hopefully the hanged man will bring me good news tomorrow."

The Temple of Mystery contains several extraordinary traits that are not easy to get rid of, such as the Bishop of the Rose, the Assassin, and the Listener.

It is a curse to give these materials to others, or they are easy to be targeted.

It's better to use it to make extraordinary items that are handy.

Of course.

The premise is that –

With enough knowledge of artisanism, the reconstitution properties of the Temple of Mystery can indeed be used to create extraordinary items.

This is just speculation at the moment.

Roy retracted his expression and returned to reality.

……

"Lady No. 5 is so gentle that she can't tell at all that she is an adventurer who advocates adventure and fighting."

"But it could also be the need for a play or a ritual."

"She's probably at least a sequence 5 or above."

Crane thought to himself.

Subsequently, he couldn't help but sigh-

Mr. Hermit's meeting is really powerful, and even extraordinary people from Sequence 5 and above have participated, so it's no wonder that he has a random tone.

But.

In Desperate Combat Survival, the practice of abandoning arms doesn't seem to fit in with most sequences of combat.

Of course.

It's not non-existent, there are many incredible abilities in the transcendent realm, and theoretically, as long as the arm is still there, it can be healed with healing magic.

The lady may have extraordinary people on her team who are very good at healing.

Pity.

Even such a team is trapped in the ruins and still has no choice but to rely on Mr. Hermit for help and survival.

I don't know what kind of ruins it is.

"I should help the ladies gather food as soon as possible, they must be desperate and in desperate need of food now."

Klein looked outside.

It's getting late.

It was impossible to buy large quantities of food through normal channels, but he vaguely remembered that Roy knew some merchants in the South End.

He thought about it and prayed through the "fools".

After a while—

Roy got the message.

"Great Mr. Fool, please help ask the 'Hermit' if he knows a grain merchant who can buy food in large quantities."

“……”

Klein really doesn't hide it, no wonder he blew up his identity when he came up, and his feelings are to make better use of his connections.

Roy sighed softly, then set up the ritual prayer.

After a string of honorific names.

He replied.

"Yes, they returned to the South District some time ago, and although it is not clear why Mr. 'World' needs a large quantity of grain, I should be able to help buy it."

After a while, Klein sent a reply.

He said that the money would be paid by him, and Roy would also pay accordingly, and the more food, the better, preferably a type that is shelf-stable and easy to carry, as for the reason......

Klein's rhetoric is.

There is an aristocratic rich man who advocates apocalypticism, hoping to buy large quantities of grain and store them in order to cope with the coming apocalyptic world.

Okay.

It's hard for Roy to imagine whether Klein's "doomsday" meant something, or if he was referring to the characters of some rich people in his previous life.

Anyway, he chose to turn a blind eye and got up and walked towards Gard Street.

……

In the Silver City, Lovia maintained a posture of prayer and praise, her eyes closed and full of piety.

She sincerely thanked Mr. Hermit for giving her the opportunity to access outside resources.

"Maybe I should talk to Your Excellency the Chief."

"Food ......"

Lovia looked calm.

She knew that Silver City's madness was coming from for another reason, but there was no doubt that the Chief's approach was just to keep everyone alive.

Madness may be the price that must be paid.

It's just that the grain obtained from the trade cannot be used as a long-term supply, and can only be retained for short-term emergency use.

Thinking of this, she got up and headed to the chief office.

"Your Excellency."

"Elder Lovia, what's the matter?"

"I got a batch of grain through trading, it should arrive in a few days, is there a place to store it?"

Lovia asked calmly, as if to say something insignificant.

Colin was sluggish.

After a long time, he came back to his senses and said, "If you can really get it, store it in the tower first, and use ritual magic to isolate it to prevent food from changing." ”

"In addition, the source of this batch of food ......"

Lovia hesitated.

In what name is it proclaimed?

Colin pondered for a few seconds and said, "Let's just say that it is a gift from the Creator, the hope of our Silver City is coming, as long as we persevere, we can see the dawn." ”

"Whatever the true Creator is, we need Him now to stabilize the will of the people of Silver City, knowing that the Creator is alive and stronger."

……

Inside an apartment in the Joe Wood area.

Firth paced up and down the hall, contemplating Miss Audrey's every move in the past.

Then, she became more and more sure.

Audrey has already become an extraordinary person in the audience pathway!

When they first met, the other party seemed to be looking at and observing her, but at that moment, Foirth himself was still in the state of mind of an extraordinary person facing ordinary people, ignoring the details.

So.

Audrey has been hiding, and probably Mr. Viscount doesn't know that she is already extraordinary.

But.

Why do you still ask to buy the audience's potion recipe even though you have already become an audience?

It is impossible to squander money at will.

Furth was puzzled.

Squeak –

The door opened, and Hugh came back from the outside, tired, and saw Firth walking up and down the hall, and asked suspiciously.

"Furth, what are you doing?"

"Hugh, I've been feeling something isn't quite right lately."

"Huh?"

"Miss Audrey's pet dog has a high level of intelligence, and I heard it mentioned at the party that it was a sign of a certain type of potion, and the audience just happened to be eligible."

Furth frowned.

Hugh blinked, then said, "Miss Audrey is already extraordinary?" ”

"Probably, yes."

"And what else is she asking for the recipe for?"

Hugh closed the door, took two steps, and then a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, and said, "I asked for the sheriff's formula, so I entered MI9, is it possible to ......?"

"You're saying that Miss Audrey's purpose is actually to get the attention of an organization?"

Firth was stunned, then diverged his thoughts and reasoned along this line.

Then, she nodded again and again: "Very likely, by the way, Hugh, after you read that person's honorable name, did there any change?" ”

"No, nothing unusual."

Rest pretend to be calm.

But.

As her best friend, how could Furth not know her?

She was thoughtful.

"Looks like there's something going on, party? Or is it some kind of connection between believers? ”

"I, I don't know."

His face was stiff, but he wanted to cry and wail without tears in his heart.

The hard-working, positive Furth had become so smart that she felt as if she couldn't hide anything from the other party, and had no secrets to speak of.

I'm sorry, Mr. Fool.

I didn't mean to leak it!

Furth chuckled, "Whatever it is, Hugh, I need you to do something over there, pay attention to the ladies inside, one of them may be Miss Audrey." ”

"Huh?"

Hugh was stunned.

Lady?

There is currently only one lady at the Tarot meeting, and that is Miss Justice.

Is she Audrey?

Oh, my God!

"Impossible, Furth, you're too daring to think about it."

"Most likely, I brought the book of your honorific name from Mr. Viscount, but Audrey was there at the time, and secondly, I accidentally pronounced the honorific name at one of the parties."

"At the time, I thought it was an accident, but under the premise that she was an extraordinary audience, everything was logical, and she wanted to draw me into the ranks of believers." ”

"Your conjecture is too amazing."

"Isn't it, just give it a try?"

……

At this time, Audrey, who did not know her identity crisis, was taking out a thousand pounds of assets and transferring them to Roy by Mr. Fool.

In addition, there are some miscellaneous materials, many of which are purely beautiful, but can be used as witchcraft materials in Roy's hands.

She still owes fifteen thousand gold pounds—

The material before and now is worth a lot.

However.

Roy knew that a large part of the remaining money did not belong to him, but to Mr. Azik.

Therefore.

He wasn't as wealthy as he looked.

Fortunately, the value of the material can be improved after being processed into a scroll, and it can also assist in digestion, so this transaction is basically a sure profit.

Of course.

Now Roy is not able to receive the materials.

He's helping Klein buy grain, and by the way, he's selling the inferior goods he has—

Six very average quality Fire Scrolls.

Their power is roughly equivalent to the sorcery effect he had when he first reached Sequence 7, and it doesn't help Roy much now.

Take it to Tarot will ......

It's okay, but it can be sold better over there, and selling it at the tarot meeting may not show off the characteristics of his "scroll professor".

He wanted to see if he could help with digestion.

The price difference is not too big, basically two to three pounds per cost price is overflowed as a hardship fee, and he and Sozer also made it very clear.

In addition, Roy also bought some materials from them, spending more than a hundred gold pounds-

Sozer's fleet will leave Beckland next week for the northern Vrsak Empire, and will not return to Beckland for at least a month.

Otherwise, Roy wouldn't have bought so much at once.

Although Suozer said that a new fleet would come in half a month at most, and he could buy materials with the "Mohan Family Crest" at another location on Gard Street, he might not have delivered them to his door like Sozer.

When the time comes, it will cause trouble.

Back home, Roy began to make scrolls non-stop

Researching and making new scrolls can bring more digestion, while making scrolls usually brings very little digestion.

But.

Making some every day, adding up to a lot, is also a great help for digestion.

But.

Recently Roy had a new idea.

Most of the previous scrolls were flames, lightning, and ice, which were extremely powerful and could be very useful in battle.

But.

These materials are also very expensive.

The cheapest Flame Scroll can be made at a cost of more than ten gold pounds, not to mention the other two.

Lightning is the most expensive, and one can cost more than fifteen pounds.

Most importantly.

Its materials are hard to find, and many are under the control of the Storm Church.

Therefore.

Roy wanted to study further, trying to use simpler and cheaper materials to research more usable scrolls, so that scrolls could be popularized and more people could benefit from scrolls.

It's also a conjecture, but it's ......

Roy vaguely felt that this direction was more likely to help him complete the digestion of the scroll professor's potion.

There are two spells he is currently working on.

One is water waves.

Use cheaper materials, such as ordinary marine fish, fish skin, and fish blood to make scrolls.

A reel can cost more than a pound at most.

Again, labor costs are included.

If you don't count labor, the cost may only be one or two soles.

The other is the hand of the force field.

The hand of the force field is a sorcery that requires very common materials, and can be used to cast spells as long as there are objects with magnetism.

Like magnet powder, magnetized iron powder, and so on.

The materials were cheap, not too expensive to craft, and practical in practice, and even now Roy didn't abandon the sorcery.

As for the sales channel.

After thinking about it, Royce felt that it was more appropriate to sell among the merchants of Fenerport, and it was not a good choice to set up a stall in the Harvest Church.

The power of the Steam Church in Beckland, after all, is greater than their Earth Church, and face still has to be given.
