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

Chapter 124: Stop pretending, I am 'the world'!
"This is 'Judgment'."

"This is 'The World'."

"Sit down and introduce yourselves"

The Fool introduces them one by one.

"Justice" Audrey said first: "I am Justice."

"The Hanged Man."

Alger said.

Then came Little Sun, and finally Roy——

Everyone tacitly introduced themselves in the order in which they joined, except for the Hanged Man and Justice, who joined at the same time.

This will make it easier for newcomers to learn about Tarot Club.

"I heard Mr. Fool say that you can trade what you need here?"

croaked the world.

"Yes, but now is Mr. Fool's reading time. If you want to trade, you have to wait until later."

Alger said displeasedly.

The Hanged Man then submitted a six-page note to The Fool.

Waited for a while.

"Ok?"

The Fool's surprised voice came from above.

Roy suddenly became curious——

What did Klein see that made him unable to control his emotions and make such a sound?

If it hadn't been something that shocked him so much, he certainly wouldn't have lost his composure.

pity……

He couldn't take a look at it and couldn't satisfy his curiosity.

but.

Maybe wait and see?
Roy waited quietly underneath.

After a while, "The Fool" put down the diary in his hand, and then chuckled: "You can start."

Audrey is not curious?

Roy was a little disappointed, then gritted his teeth and said: "Mr. Fool, can what you were surprised about just now be used as part of a transaction? If so, what do I need to pay?"

Ok?
Klein was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help but chuckle: "Okay."

What are the conditions...

He thought for a moment and said, "You need to accept a commission from me."

Another commission?

Roy hesitated for a moment and said, "Can I know what the commission is?"

"It's not a difficult thing. You have to help me collect information about the Secret Order."

"The Fool" said calmly.

Uh.

Roy didn't know what to feel for a moment, but he said without hesitation: "I do!"

"This condition also applies to you."

"The Fool" said with a faint smile.

Everyone hesitated for a moment and nodded: "We are willing too."

Including Hugh Dilcha.

Although she didn't know what was going on, everyone seemed to be very interested in the knowledge revealed by this great being.

and.

The Moss Ascetic Order is Cha, so wouldn’t one more Tantric Order still be Cha?

Too much debt doesn't weigh you down.

She's completely used to it.

"The Fool" chuckled and said: "Someone deciphered Russell's notes and imitated a similar diary."

really!

Roy's breath was stagnant, his eyes were full of longing, and then he quickly sighed: "It's surprising that besides you, Mr. Fool, there are people who can decipher this kind of text."

"There are many hidden existences in this world that are resurrecting. It's not surprising that others have cracked them."

"Thank you for your answer. I wonder if I can learn this kind of writing from you one day."

Roy lowered his head to show his desire.

"The Fool" smiled slightly: "If you have enough contributions, I can consider it."

The final power of interpretation lies in the hands of the fool, right?
Roy cursed.

but.

On the surface, he still had to look grateful and pious.

The others were also shocked and amazed.

In addition to Russell and the Fool, there was actually a contemporary of Russell who mastered this kind of writing and wrote a fake diary.

What seems to be a very simple thing is actually incredible——

Why is that person imitating writing a diary?
and.

If you can see Russell's diary, he must be someone familiar to Russell...

Audrey thought quickly, and then she couldn't help being slightly shocked, and understood why Mr. Fool made that sound.

This is indeed something to think about and marvel at.

After a moment of exclamation, everyone began the trading session. Klein manipulated the world and proposed a deal for the magician's extraordinary materials.

Little Sun accepted the commission and offered weapons in exchange as before.

"The Hanged Man", "Justice" and others also put forward their demands, including the newcomer Xio, who saw the heated atmosphere and followed suit.

For a time, the Tarot Club was as lively as a market.

Roy said nothing.

He smiled and waited for everyone to finish speaking before saying: "Mr. Hanged Man, have you acquired any knowledge about craftsmen?"

"Sorry, I just went to sea recently and haven't met that friend yet."

Alger said awkwardly, "I will definitely give you an answer next time we get together."

"Okay, thank you."

Roy nodded, and then said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I have some scrolls for sale. If you are interested, you can buy them at a low price."

Audrey suddenly became interested: "Scroll? Is it the same as the scrolls of the Church of Steam?"

"Yes, Miss Justice."

Roy nodded with a smile.

Klein secretly envied——

According to Roy's wishes, he has been promoted to Scroll Professor and is now seeking a new role and promotion.

Scroll might be how he plays it.

In comparison, I am only Sequence 8 now, and even the materials for Sequence 7 are still in preparation.

"I'm interested in, um, how many do you have? Can I have some of each?"

Audrey didn’t dare to say all-inclusive——

She wasn't quite sure how much Roy had.

"There are currently 10 of them. The power of the scroll is roughly equivalent to the witchcraft effect when I was just at Sequence 7. Currently, it costs 10 pounds. When I become proficient, the power of the scroll will definitely be stronger, but the price will also increase accordingly."

Roy calculated.

As an individual, he cannot share the cost with quantity. The immature technology in the early stage will cause extra losses. The average cost of each scroll is about eight to nine pounds.

The price of 10 pounds is actually just a little bit of labor fee.

"I want it all."

Audrey answered happily.

Her tone...

Just say "very cheap".

There was a long silence.

This kind of rich man's courage is really difficult for other people who are relatively poor to express.

Although it is only ten pounds each, the 10 pieces in total are close to half the price of a sequence 9 extraordinary main material.

Only Roy, the seller, slightly raised his lips.

"Miss Justice, they only require a part of spirituality and can give you the ability to protect yourself in a crisis. You will never regret it after you try it."

"Thank you Mr. Hermit. If the effect is good, I hope to order the next scroll."

Audrey said immediately.

How could Roy agree? He leaned on his chair and smiled and said, "I'm not sure if I'll be free and have the materials this week, so I can't guarantee it for the time being. Let's talk about it at the next party."

"Ok."

Audrey sat back regretfully.

The Hanged Man was actually very moved, but he really didn’t have much money on hand——

With not much money earned, I still have to prepare the recipes and materials for Sequence 6. I guess there is still a big gap.

Alger could only sit in poverty and envy.

Roy looked at Alger.

"Mr. Hanged Man, if you obtain suitable materials at sea, you can give them to me and I can purchase them or only charge a part of the foundry fee."

Alger was stunned for a moment, then he was ecstatic but suppressed his emotions and nodded: "Okay."

"Mr. Sun, Mr. World, Miss Judgment, you are the same."

Roy smiled.

Derrick and Xio nodded slightly to express their understanding, but...

The World sneered: "How can we know if we don't tell you anything?"

"Any body part of an extraordinary creature can be used. Making a scroll requires studying various materials. This is a long process."

"I'll keep an eye out."

He nodded.

Klein was envious in his heart, but also very happy——

Roy is strong, and he is naturally happy to be a friend.

not to mention.

The materials purchased by the other party are all parts and components, which does not affect the acquisition of extraordinary characteristics. To them, it is just like extra money.

Why not?
The manufacturing industry will definitely require subsidies in the early stage. Roy has been mentally prepared before. Now he can not lose much money and even make a small profit. He is quite satisfied.

After talking about their trading projects, everyone's atmosphere suddenly became relaxed, but at this time, Little Sun raised his hand and said worriedly: "I have something that I hope you can help me with."

This time he did not directly say "The Hanged Man" or "The Hermit".

"The Hanged Man" Alger looked at Derrick curiously.

"what's up?"

"It's still our elder. She originally led the team to hunt a few days ago, but the plan was temporarily changed. She hunted alone, and the rest was led by another elder."

Derrick frowned and expressed his worries, "She seemed to have gone to see the chief before going out, but I have no way of knowing what they talked about."

"Did she go out alone? I remember you mentioned that it's very dangerous outside. Generally speaking, you are not allowed to travel alone, right?"

Alger said in surprise.Derrick nodded and said worriedly: "Yes, this is what I'm worried about too."

Obviously.

From Little Sun's perspective, Elder Lovia, as the "shepherd", may have now convinced the chief to follow her strategy and direction.

Roy naturally knew that Lovia helped him hunt the "Crazy Tree Spirit", but he couldn't tell him about it.

Because he learned about the "Crazy Tree Spirit" from Little Sun.

but.

He had to say something to clear up the misunderstanding between the two.

After thinking for a moment, Roy said: "What happens after she comes back?"

"Entering the dungeon, it seems like you are being scrutinized and baptized."

Derrick said.

"Two possibilities."

"The World" said coldly, "First, she is not afraid of being investigated, and second, she will not be investigated."

"There are two possibilities for the first one. She really didn't do anything, so she is not afraid. The second one is that she is not worried about being censored or having her problems discovered."

Roy added.

"The World" nodded slightly.

If it's the second type, it's very scary.

This shows that the chief and the elders have reached a consensus...

Little Sun was visibly more panicked.

He didn't know how to hide his emotions, so he was a little incoherent now.

"Then, what should I do? Should I do something?"

"What sequence are you? What can you do?"

Roy glanced at him.

A Sequence 8 light prayer, who is not even a sun priest, went over to sue the "shepherd" elder?
He kept his tone as calm as possible.

"Calm down, panic won't help. Do you trust your chief?"

"Believe."

Derrick did not hesitate.

After being asked this question before, he thought about it carefully and felt that the chief was great and wise, otherwise he would not have been able to lead everyone to live for such a long time.

"Then you should continue to believe that you have done everything you can do, and the most important thing you should do now is to improve yourself."

Roy said calmly.

Then, he looked at the others and smiled: "I think everyone is the same, the focus is still on promotion."

"why?"

Xio couldn't help but ask.

This mysterious "hermit" seems to have a lot of secret knowledge and looks very impressive.

Roy sighed.

"As Mr. Fool said before, the wave of the times has arrived. I didn't understand it before, but I understand it in the past two days."

What do you unserstand?

Klein himself was stunned.

He just repeated the words of another "hermit". Although he had his own speculation, he did not make any explanation or extension.

"What do you unserstand?"

Audrey couldn't wait.

"Miss Justice, have you heard about the Aurora Society?"

Roy asked back.

Audrey nodded: "I heard that they performed evil rituals and killed many civilians in Backlund."

"That's a ritual from the gods."

Roy sneered.

"what?"

Everyone was shocked on the spot, including "The World" who had to pretend.

God descended!

Horrible events involving God.

"The Hanged Man" Alger understood instantly.

No wonder yesterday, the superiors temporarily issued an order to hunt down the Aurora Society, but such a terrible incident happened near the dock area.

"In addition, as far as I know, the Aurora Society has not killed so many people. The sacrifices they need are not the flesh and blood of living people, but the dark side of emotions."

Roy sneered in a low voice, "The East District, Bridge District and Dock District, as Mr. Fool said, have become the best breeding ground for evil gods. They are what the true Creator needs to come."

"What about the dead people?"

Klein frowned.

This battle was so terrifying that Lanrevus directly became the carrier of divine descent, so that he did not dare to get close and could not kill it himself.

but.

He knew Roy might have experienced it firsthand.

Look now...

Sure enough, it was true, but the secret inside seemed to be far beyond his imagination.

"I don't know. I hope it's just an exaggerated and false description from above, just to arouse people's anger and emotions."

Roy said indifferently.

Xio's brain was shaken crazily by all the information.

she can't imagine...

The so-called evil ritual turned out to be an evil god trying to descend on Backlund, and it was in the East District where she was often active.

Do not!
Lanerwus——

She almost met him face to face before, and even picked up a book from him.

Xiu couldn't help but break into a cold sweat when he thought of this.

Klein was silent on the sidelines. He felt that Roy had something to say, but he didn't know how to elicit the hidden part.

After all, he is "The World", not Klein.

perhaps……

Can a showdown be considered?

Klein was a little confused.

"Mr. Hermit, what you said is too shocking. I, I can't bear it for a while, but I will find a way to investigate this matter."

"Justice" Audrey said.

Roy nodded: "Miss Justice, if you want to investigate, you must make your people careful and cautious."

"I understand, after all it involves the Aurora Society."

Audrey nodded.

Everyone was so shocked by the "divine descent" incident that they stopped communicating. After a while, the Fool said, "Come here."

"Wait a minute, Mr. Fool, Mr. 'Hermit', I got part of the bounty, should I sacrifice it directly to your beloved and Mr. 'Hermit', or in some other way?"

Audrey asked.

Roy smiled and said: "It's okay, Miss Justice, I believe in your character. Of course, Mr. Fool, I am not making decisions for you..."

"It's okay, it's just a small matter."

The fool smiled lightly.

Audrey's tone became more relaxed: "Then allow me to sacrifice ten thousand pounds to you, Mr. Hermit, and I will send out the remaining fifteen thousand pounds every once in a while. After all, I took out so much money at once... "

"Don't worry, I'm not very short of money for the time being, especially after the five thousand gold pounds you provided, other materials can still be deducted."

"okay, thank you."

Audrey nodded gratefully.

The Fool then disbanded the Tarot Club, leaving only the "Hermit" and the "World", which the rest of the world didn't know.

Roy was stunned for a moment, then pretended not to understand.

"Mr. Fool, Mr. World..."

"Roy, I'm Klein Moretti."

"The World" spoke.

"what?"

Roy showed a shocked emotion——

Not acting.

He was really shocked.

Klein actually showed off his cards!

Although it was just a showdown of the identity of the world, it also surprised him very much. He took a deep breath and said: "Wait, I didn't react..."

"After I came to Backlund, I became one of Mr. Fool's favored ones. This time I also learned that such a meeting existed, so I took the initiative to apply to join."

Klein continued.

Roy's mood was complicated, but he gradually calmed down.

"What do you want to know?"

Confessing your identity must be to gain trust and obtain more information——

For free and in a trusted way.

after all.

Some words are not so familiar, even if you are in the Tarot Club, you will not say them.

Klein said: "I want to know the inside story of this incident, the death of Lanerwus and the death of the civilians you highlighted."

"This is just a guess of mine. You should know that I have come into contact with many homeless people in the South District, right?"

Roy sat across from "The World".

Klein controlled "The World" and nodded slightly.

"Many homeless people were killed, but many also disappeared. In addition, one of the gangs called the Wit Party once imprisoned many people from overseas. They were even guarded by extraordinary people."

Roy continued, "The amazing thing is that after this was discovered, the gangs quickly fought and were eventually annexed."

"This……"

Klein understood what Roy meant.

He said in surprise: "You mean, there are people involved in human trafficking, and in this incident, they tried to hide the human beings in the name of evil rituals?"

"Who really cares how many people died during the ceremony."

Roy sighed, "If the Orthodox Church asks, they can also say that the newspaper is exaggerating, and civilians will not know this."

Klein thought about what he saw and heard in the East District and the Bridge District, and many doubtful points were connected in an instant.

Yes.

Human trafficking!

The Werthers were not the only such gangs.

He said in a deep tone: "They should be punished!"

"It's difficult, Klein. You should be aware of the influence of that pen, right? I don't dare to get close to you during this period."
