Secret: I, the hermit, want to make progress too much

Chapter 110 I didn’t betray Silver City!

Returning to Rose Flower Street, Roy saw the crowd of people discussing fiercely and the official newspaper announcing the news.

As mentioned above, there was a gang fight in the South District yesterday, resulting in the death of many people.

but.

A lot of people know that's not true.

Those corpses had been dead for a long time, many were homeless people, and many were villagers who had been killed in the south.

"It's really outrageous to say that it's a group of corpses fighting each other!"

There were people talking in the bar.

Roy looked over and saw two middle-aged men drinking and chatting.

Another person said: "Yes, you are right, but this is Backlund. Not to mention the South District, Silveras Field has not yet arrested the murderer of the serial murder case. The previous Qilingos also died." It was only discovered later…”

They talked endlessly.

These are the things middle-aged people like to talk about everywhere.

Roy was slanderous.

He ordered a glass of wine and decided to listen to the recent wind direction in the South District——

A bar is the easiest place to grab this information.

"I heard that wizards used evil witchcraft. There was a fight there last night. These wizards are really scary..."

I understand, brother.

Roy was speechless.

But there is no guarantee that such words can help strengthen his image as a "wizard".

He listened quietly.

"Not one, but many. I also heard the howling of wolves. There might be a werewolf."

"Yes, yes! Werewolf, I heard it too."

"So the wizard controlled the corpses to surround the werewolves?"

Everyone was talking about it, almost treating it as a story.

At this time, a person stood up and shouted angrily: "Don't slander Mr. Wizard! He is a good man and has helped many people for free, but you don't know it!"

The bar fell silent for a moment. Everyone looked over and saw a well-dressed man with a clean shaven face and a handsome appearance.

"He is a kind and benevolent gentleman. He treats us homeless people for free so that we can return to normal life. You guys don't understand anything!"

Roy was startled.

Then, his superb memory gradually allowed him to combine the face of this man with that of another homeless man.

"Yes, I used to be a homeless man. That gentleman helped me. He used to help grain merchants move their goods. I heard that the grain merchants were willing to help homeless people because of Mr. Wizard."

Another man stood up.

He is also a homeless man.

In the bar, a full six people stood up to confirm.

Roy took a sip of wine, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said in a low voice: "Gentlemen, cheers to the new students!"

"That's right, cheers to the new students!"

Everyone raised their glasses.

The singer above was playing and singing more cheerful poems, and the atmosphere in the bar seemed to suddenly become cheerful again.

Roy was in the bar and his mood became cheerful.

At this moment, he felt strong digestive feedback.

The first role...

Perform a "wizard" image, make yourself behave like a wizard, and establish the image of a wizard in people's minds.

At this moment, it seems that he has completed his performance.

"The remaining part will be over in a week or two at most, or even sooner."

Roy raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Then, he sighed.

Even so, several materials required for Sequence 6 potions have not yet been found, and they are only temporarily available.

It is hoped that "The Hanged Man" can quickly go to sea within a week and arrive at the market where he used to trade in two weeks.

As for the bark of the Sage Tree, he finally decided to find Lovia.

With her strength and status, Lovia is more likely than Little Sun to come into contact with the "Crazy Tree Spirit" and obtain its bark.

He went out to the street, glanced sideways at Harvest Church, and then walked inside.

The narrow Harvest Church remains deserted.

Only on harvest days, there are many believers here, and most of them are businessmen who come here from Feneport to do business, or they are local believers who have developed.

Roy walked in and the priest turned around with a bright, happy smile on his face.

"Nice to meet you, my friend."

"Father, I am also very happy. Your mental state is obviously much better than before. It seems that this treatment is very thorough."

Roy said with a smile.

Uratevsky nodded: "Yes, I no longer have to suffer the pain of the past. This may be an escape, but I can better preach and spread the gospel of the Mother Goddess."

He looked forward and said: "I will spend my whole life serving the Mother Goddess to repay my sins."

"Praise the Earth Mother!"

"Praise the Mother God."

Uratevsky made a gesture on his chest.

……

Back home, Roy was thinking about how to propose this deal to Lovia.

Certainly not through "The Hermit".

Mr. Hermit only provides a platform and does not directly participate in these transactions. This is the setting he has created for himself, and it is also a necessary rule to maintain a high-level image.

and so.

Only through "accidental encounter".

Or, Mr. Hermit relays the request directly.

He thought for a long time and finally chose the second option——

The "Hermit" will relay the clone's transaction request. If Lovia is willing to cooperate, then he will cooperate with Lovia.

If he refused, he would have to find another way.

After ascending to the mysterious palace, Roy maintained the state of "information spiritualization" and then intercepted a message.

"Dear Mr. Hermit, do you know the whereabouts of the 'Sage Tree'? I am willing to exchange the secret knowledge I have, or exchange it with your favored ones and believers."

How wonderful it is to cross the river by following the experience of the Fool!
Roy sighed.

……

In Silver City, Lovia was sitting in the library, reading documents silently.

She was aware of the recent changes.

but.

She didn't say anything or argue, she still maintained her daily life, and she discovered one thing——

My belief gradually shifted towards Mr. "Hermit".

but.

The loss of control that I was originally worried about didn't seem to happen.

"The Creator."

Lovia sighed.

The history that all hermits are interested in, I really don’t know what happened in that history that caused the Creator to abandon His loyal people.

While she was thinking, a piece of information suddenly came into her mind.

She was stunned for a moment, then immediately put down the book, maintaining a respectful and devout prayer posture, silently chanting the name of the "hermit" in her heart——

Even if she doesn't know the honorific name.

After a long time, Lovia opened her eyes. After thinking for a moment, she closed her eyes again, and her consciousness ascended to the mysterious palace.

In the mysterious hall, she saw a young man.

Do people in the outside world look like this?
It makes no difference.

It looks no different from those in Baiyin City, which means that everyone in Baiyin City is not cursed. The so-called curse may come from many aspects such as environment and diet.

She saluted respectfully forward.

"Dear Mr. Hermit, thank you for your help in introducing me. I really need this deal, but can you tell me what the Sage Tree is?"

Lovia doesn’t understand the Sage Tree——

She hadn't heard the name.

Roy controlled the trumpet and said: "I have exchanged relevant knowledge with the respected Mr. Hermit. On your side, its name is Crazy Tree Spirit."

"Crazy dryad?"

Lovia pondered for a moment and said, "It is more difficult to obtain, and we usually avoid it when hunting. If I want to get it for you, I need to do it alone."

"is it okay?"

"The next time I participate in hunting will be the day after tomorrow. I can help you find it, but what do you give in exchange? Mr. Hermit's purpose is knowledge trading."

Lovia raised her lips slightly, "I need to know the equivalent knowledge, and Mr. Hermit will witness this."

This is what you said.

Roy switched accounts and nodded gently: "Okay."

After switching back to the trumpet, he became worried.

The main material of sequence 6.

What knowledge is given in exchange?

As a Sequence 7, the content you should know cannot be too advanced.

He thought for a while and said, "What do you need? Otherwise, the knowledge is too much and too broad. I'm not sure whether it is of value to you."

"I need to know information about Liushen."

After Lovia finished speaking, she looked at the hermit above with apologies and awe——

Mr. Hermit mentioned the "Six Gods" before, but she did not choose to go into the transaction at that time, and this time she happened to know the details from this outsider.

but.

This may offend the hermit.

She apologized and said: "Of course, Mr. Hermit, the name came from your suggestion, so..."

"It doesn't matter, it's just a small thing."

Roy returns to tuba.

Lovia saluted happily, and then looked at the Beyonder opposite.

"Our transaction has been approved by Mr. Hermit, so you can say that as long as you tell me the information about Liushen in detail, I will try my best to help you obtain the bark of the crazy tree spirit."

"Okay, first I want to correct something. We have a total of seven gods here, not six gods. The six gods should not include the 'God of Steam and Machinery'."

Roy said the information he "knew".

He briefly described the situations of the Night Goddess, Storm God and other six people.

Lovia fell into deep thought after hearing this, and then asked: "What about the God of Steam and Machinery?" "He was originally called the God of Craftsmen. Later, because of the appearance of a person, he changed his name and took the opportunity to expand his scale."

Roy introduced simply.

After listening, Lovia thought about the information about Liushen.

Always felt……

There are huge secrets hidden here.

"Thank you for your information."

Lovia nodded and prepared to end the transaction.

Roy couldn't bear it anymore.

What he said was common sense from the outside world. Using this in exchange for the main materials of Sequence 6 would be too much of a squeeze on the people below.

The club will die if they find out!

He thought for a while and said honestly: "These are relatively common common sense in the outside world. You can ask another question and I will answer it to the best of my ability."

Lovia glanced at him in surprise.

Then, she thought for a while and said, "I want to know your pathway and the name of the pathway corresponding to the 'Crazy Tree Spirit' material."

"Secret Peeper, our Sequence 9 is the Secret Peeper, and the corresponding crazy tree spirit is the Scroll Professor of Sequence 6."

Roy answered honestly.

Lovia said: "Peeper?"

She was silent for a while.

Silver City does not have this path. There may be low-sequence residual formulas outside. Some people may become this path, but the number is extremely rare.

She thought for a moment and said, "What kind of abilities do secret peepers generally have?"

"We have strong memories and can remember and master more mysterious knowledge, but we are also indoctrinated by hidden sages and endure huge madness."

Roy said, saluting the "hermit" devoutly, "Thanks to Mr. Hermit's protection, I can be saved from madness."

"Thank you for answering so many questions."

Lovia smiled and said, "We are all suffering from the same terrible madness as you. If possible, I would like to exchange the recipe for this path with you."

"I'm not suggesting it."

Roy said sternly, "It's not that I don't want to share, but it's too dangerous where you are. Well, I blame me for not making it clear. I have an eye for secrets in this way..."

He talked about the characteristics of the Secret Eye.

The low-sequence Secret Eyes are very dangerous, so as a secret peeper, he treats many things with caution.

Maybe it will be much better in high-sequence, but definitely not now.

Lovia sighed regretfully.

She understood after hearing it.

Although this method can obtain knowledge from the outside world through "indoctrination", in an environment like Silver City, they may die the moment they take the magic potion.

and.

The Hidden Sage is an evil god after all.

Ok?
and many more!

Hidden Sage…

Hermit?
There seems to be some connection between the two.

She was horrified, and a suspicion emerged in her heart.

Is it—

Mr. Hermit is a great being on this path, and he is competing with the so-called Hidden Sage for the final authority?

In other words, there is a more terrifying secret hidden in it.

Then, she secretly apologized for her offense, looked at Mr. Hermit, and said respectfully: "I have no problem. Dear Mr. Hermit, thank you for your help."

Then, she looked to the other side.

"Mr. Outside, thank you for your honest answers. I learned a lot."

"I'm glad I could help you."

Roy smiled.

Lovia nodded and said: "I will try my best to get the bark of the crazy tree spirit for you. If everything goes well, I will get it the day after tomorrow because I know where it is."

She was about to leave in contempt of Mr. Hermit, when she suddenly thought of something else.

"By the way, our 'sky' is different from yours. We measure time by lightning. When lightning roars, it is daytime."

"Mr. Hermit mentioned it to me."

Roy nodded.

Lovia then nodded with confidence and asked the hermit to leave the mysterious palace.

After returning to reality, Lovia stood up, went to find a few more books, and then frowned slightly.

"Goddess of the Night?"

She frowned.

Some of the six gods who joined forces to seal the land abandoned by the gods seem to correspond to some of their mythological stories, but many of them seem to have been hidden.

For example, regarding the goddess of the night, she had no clue. She only thought that there once was an ancient demon wolf king.

His nicknames are "Destruction Wolf" and "Night Demon Wolf".

Could it be that the Demonic Wolf King Fregra became a true god?

Always felt.

Although I know more, it doesn't help Silver City much.

Lovia exhaled.

I was right not to choose to learn more about it that day.

The past of the gods cannot help them get out of the place abandoned by the gods, but may become a more terrifying shackles and barriers.

Knowing more is not necessarily a good thing.

she thought silently.

Then, she felt a little worried.

Walking alone…

How to explain to the chief?

Lovia thought for a while and finally had the answer in her heart. She stood up, put away her books, and walked silently downstairs, then to Chief Colin Iliad's office.

She decides to—

Tell Colin what you discovered.

Colin has always been smart, he may be able to help himself and Silver City.

She thought rationally.

Boom boom boom!
The door knocked.

There was silence for a while, and then Colin's voice came.

"Come in."

"Your Excellency."

Lovia saluted after entering the door, and then stood calmly in front of him.

Colin stared at the shepherd.

He was silent for a moment, and then said: "Elder Lovia, what can I do for you?"

"I have something that I need to report and discuss with you."

Lovia said seriously.

Colin was startled for a moment, then nodded slightly, made sure there was no one around, closed the door, and used some isolation ritual magic.

then.

Then he said: "Elder Lovia, you can speak now."

"Your Majesty, Chief, some time ago, I had contact with the outside world."

"Ok?"

Colin was startled, and his fingers trembled slightly.

He leaned back, making himself look relaxed and covering up his shock——

Another contact from the outside?

and.

She also confessed to herself...

what's the situation?
Colin was silent for a moment and said, "What kind of existence is it?"

"He calls himself a hermit. I don't know the specifics, but through his help, I contacted the outside world and came into contact with a biologist. He is willing to help us study plants that reproduce through monster flesh and blood and can grow in the dark."

Lovia told.

Colin understood instantly——

Some time ago, Lovia had been looking for various information, many of which were about the cultivator path.

It seems that she is cooperating with the other party's research.

His expression was serious: "So your mood has improved..."

Lovia was silent for a long time.

After about a minute, she slowly spoke: "The Lord has not responded. I shamefully turned my back on the Lord. I swear that as long as anyone can bring hope to me and Silver City, I will serve him forever."

"At this moment, Mr. Hermit responded to me."

Lovia spoke her mind honestly.

She didn't cover up.

Colin raised his head, then stood up and apologized solemnly: "I'm sorry, Lovia, I doubted you before, even..."

"I still doubt you."

Colin said, "But I believe that you are loyal to Silver City. I just can't trust the person behind you."

"Understood, we in Silver City need a chief like you."

Lovia nodded and said seriously, "We can no longer bear the setbacks."

"Tell me why you're here. I think you have a need, so you came to me."

Colin raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Lovia nodded slightly: "Yes, next time I hunt, I need to leave alone to get the bark of the crazy tree spirit. This is a deal between me and another outsider."

"What did you get in exchange?"

"After changing some things about Liushen, I seem to understand something, but I seem to be even more confused."

Lovia's tone was filled with excitement, "But there is one thing. The Six Gods have sealed this place. We are in a cage, but we still have the opportunity to leave, and we will meet an outsider in the future."

Colin didn't get excited.

He thought about everything calmly, then slowly exhaled.

"I understand, Lovia, you go ahead, I will let Waite lead the team with you the day after tomorrow."

"Thank you, Your Excellency."
