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

Chapter 131 Queen, what did Russell write in his notes?
Mysterious waiter.

From this title, he should be a Sequence 4 mystic.

Roy continued to channel.

"Where is the waiter?"

This time, the picture did not appear, and obviously the wizard did not know where the mysterious waiter lived.

Then he immediately took the time to change the question.

"How many people are there in the Moss Ascetic Society in Backlund? What are their levels?"

"I know of 3 wizards, 2 scroll professors, 1 astrologer, and the mysterious waiter."

"Where are they?"

"I don't know. We only communicate through the mysterious waiter and his messenger."

on horseback.

As a demigod who works so hard, are you worthy of your status?

Roy cursed secretly.

He then asked a few more questions, but to no avail.

This wizard is obviously not a very high-level person and does not have access to a lot of information. He only knows so much.

and.

With constant questioning, the wizard's spirituality is rapidly dissipating.

Even if he used the Mysterious Hall to maintain it, he could no longer find out anything. During the subsequent interrogation, Roy only got one piece of relatively useful information.

In order to target Bernadette and Elemental Dawn, Moss Ascetic Society is preparing to unite some forces to help.

The Intis forces represented by Beklang are just one of them.

The wizard didn't know the rest.

but.

Backlund didn't have much power to unite.

The Witch Sect, the Spiritual Sect, the Aurora Society, and the rest are all cult organizations that cannot be brought to the forefront.

Adding up these three——

According to Roy's personal guess, the latter two are more likely.

Roy lowered his head and picked up the witchcraft staff, as well as one with extraordinary properties belonging to the wizard.

With the extraordinary characteristics of this wizard, he can transfer the extraordinary characteristics of the fighting scholar used to maintain the clone in the mysterious palace to Element Dawn.

Judging from the purchase price of Hyde, Element Dawn still lacks low-sequence extraordinary characteristics.

As for this staff.

He had a rough feeling that its material tended to be the trunk of the silver lightning tree, so it should be able to release lightning-type witchcraft relatively easily.

In the middle and low sequences, lightning witchcraft has the strongest destructive power and speed.

nice one.

I don't know what the negative effects are.

Roy used a simple ritual to send them to the mysterious palace, and then quietly restrained his shadow witchcraft and headed to Beiklang's forest.

The body of the arsonist was guarded by three people.

He observed.

These three people were armed with ordinary guns and weapons, and there were no obvious traces of Beyonders on their bodies. According to observations...

It should be an ordinary knight.

There can only be one extraordinary person at most.

Roy thought for a moment, and then took out a spell he had made before.

It's not a high-end spell, just a "sleeping spell" based on Klein's spell book.

of course.

Since he is not a dark path, the effect is definitely not as good as it is, but it is enough to deal with ordinary people.

If they are extraordinary, then use other means.

Roy must get the extraordinary properties of this arsonist!
He had been coveting the effect of the Chain of Arson for too long.

Three charms were thrown.

The three people were about to shout, but then they felt a wave of sleepiness coming over them.

Then, poof—

Two people fell down first, and the remaining one managed to hold on, but it looked like he was about to die.

Roy covered his body with shadows.

This doesn't make him invisible like when he's still, but it allows his body shape and appearance to be obscured.

Even effects such as necromancy cannot predict the outcome.

Roy then destroyed the Arsonist's spirit.

Putting the clothes aside, he saw the fiery red part.

This is a burning red heart.

After taking it out, he looked at the other things. The knives and guns were all ordinary items.

Roy looked towards the woods.

There was no movement there.

It looked like, at least, the battle was over.

It's normal.

Even if Triss is not promoted to Sequence 6 now, she is still the best among Sequence 7. With the heavily armed Klein and the advance ambush...

Killing Beckron is not a big problem.

Roy went to the dark place, took out his spare clothes, changed into something, and then walked to the villa.

Returning to the count's villa, he went directly to the second floor.

Gray Lint seemed to have gone to the first floor.

Only Liyana and Audrey were chatting here, and they seemed to be in a happy mood, but he felt that the atmosphere was a bit secretly fighting.

At this moment, people on both sides are secretly observing each other.

Seeing Roy coming back, Audrey smiled and said, "Mr. Green, you have smoked this cigarette for a long enough time."

"I asked him to go get something for me by the way."

Liyana explained with a smile, then looked at Roy, "Have you brought it?"

"Bring it."

Roy took out a charm at random, "The protective pendant you left in the car."

This is an amethyst pendant.

It records the crazy indoctrination of the Hidden Sage.

Liyana took it, and then a grateful smile appeared on her face: "Thank you, Mr. Green. Also, I heard a lot of noise just now. What happened?"

"It looks like there was a gunfight in the park in the distance."

Roy sat down and sighed, "It's hard to imagine that something like this could happen in a place like the West End. Silveras Field is really getting worse and worse."

"The Silveras Field is really inefficient. The murderer of that serial murder case is still at large. I don't know when it will be solved."

Liyana complained, "I heard that the murderer specifically targeted women. Living in such an environment makes me want to go back to Feneport."

"Serial murder case? Haven't you solved it yet?"

Audrey said in surprise, "I don't think it has been reported recently."

"Maybe there's progress, maybe they're starting to work, who knows."

Liana shrugged.

Roy chuckled and said: "It may involve some mystery, so it was taken over by the higher authorities. I don't know what the progress is now."

"Mysterious? Mr. Green, you mean that the murderer of the serial murders is actually an extraordinary person?"

Audrey was extremely surprised.

Roy nodded: "As far as I know, there is a sequence of Beyonders called criminals. After they are promoted, they have a name called serial killers."

"Serial killer? What an evil name!"

Audrey's audience status was completely unbearable.

serial killer……

According to the acting method provided by Mr. Fool, the name probably represents the direction of the acting, that is to say——

The other party is probably acting?

She took a deep breath and said, "Goddess, I hope the evil villains will be brought to justice soon!"

"Will do."

It's just a difference between morning and evening.

Roy cursed.

He sat down and said with a smile: "Ms. Liyana, I don't think you need to worry too much about your safety. The Church of the Night will not sit idly by."

"Yes."

Audrey looked serious, "The goddess will definitely punish these evil guys!"

Roy raised his lips slightly.

Audrey noticed this smile, and also noticed...

The other party is not pretending.

He is really "happy".

She couldn't help but feel a little confused, but she couldn't think of anything that would make the other party happy. She could only attribute it to Mr. Green possibly thinking of something happy.

Audrey originally wanted the other party to share it.

but.

At this moment, there was a noise below.

She was stunned, then immediately got up and walked towards the railing.

Count Wolfe is back.

His face was gloomy, he took a deep breath, then looked around and said: "The banquet will continue, I will take care of things over there."

Then a trace of ferocity appeared on Count Wolfe's face.

He glanced around fiercely and turned to leave.

Obviously.

From Earl Wolfe's point of view, he believed that this was a party that was trying to hinder him, or that it was deliberately leading him to embarrass him.

but.

Obviously the Conservative Party and the New Party are confused about this.

After a while, Gray Linte came back from downstairs cautiously, with a hint of fear on his face, and even took a special look at Liyana.

"What happened?"

Audrey frowned.

Why is Graylint behaving so strangely?

The young viscount swallowed.

Then, he took a deep breath and said in a low voice: "Becklund is dead!"

"what?"

Liyana was stunned for a moment, then she couldn't help but cover her mouth and chuckle, "Sure enough, he died in the hands of that lady."

"That lady?"

Audrey's mind flashed through the last woman Beckron hooked up with, a charming young lady.

She was still thinking...

Such an attractive woman could be easily deceived by Backlund. Unexpectedly, it was Backlund who fell into trouble in the end.

"You mean, there's something wrong with her?"

"maybe."

Liyana shrugged, "I just think that no one should know about a guy as notorious as Backlund."

"If you take the initiative to approach, you must have a plan?"

Audrey mused.

Roy returned to his seat and sat down, and said, "Maybe Beckron wanted to see who was going to harm him, because I noticed that after they left, five people followed them."

"Yes, I heard there were five bodyguards, and now four have been found."

"What about people?"

"Dead, there's still one left that hasn't been found."

Graylint answered honestly.

Audrey's beautiful eyes widened, and she was stunned and speechless for a moment. After a long time, she said: "This was a well-prepared assassination." "Obviously."

Liyana looked serious and then declared, "It has nothing to do with me! Although I feel very unhappy about him, there is no reason to kill him."

"Don't worry, madam, we will all testify, and it has nothing to do with us in the first place, right?"

Audrey answered immediately.

Gray Point nodded. He just felt that what Liyana said was too accurate, almost like a prophecy, so he gave her a shocked look.

He did not believe that the gentle Miss Liana was involved in the assassination.

Although Count Wolfe said that everyone could eat and drink as usual, everyone knew that something big must have happened at this moment.

Otherwise, Count Wolfe would not be so out of control.

The dance passed silently in an awkward and dull atmosphere. After a while, Count Wolfe came back and told the situation of the investigation.

"According to our investigation, Ambassador Backlund died in an attack by the Aurora Society. The shameful Aurora Society wants to provoke a war between Intis and Loen! We will never let them get their wish."

Count Wolfe cursed those lunatics viciously.

Soon, the other nobles also began to scold the Aurora Society, and Roy upstairs wanted to laugh.

Now Backlund...

The Aurora Society has truly become an omnipotent existence.

Any bad things can be blamed on the Aurora Society, and no one will jump out to object or clarify.

and.

Since the "God's Descendance Incident", no one believes what the Aurora Society says——

of course.

Except "Aurora will be responsible for this."

……

"Mr. Green, I really enjoyed chatting with you tonight. I wonder if we will have a chance to meet you next time?"

"Of course, as long as I am still in Backlund, I will go to the Mystic Club as a consultant every Thursday and Friday."

Roy chuckled and said, "If Miss Audrey has any confusion, you can send someone to the club and leave the problem to me. If I have a way to solve it, I will definitely do it."

"Great!"

A sincere smile appeared on Audrey's face, and after chatting for a few more words, they each got on the carriage.

On the way back, Liyana's smile faded.

"Did you kill Beckron before?"

"Of course it wasn't me. I just helped a little bit and helped delay the reinforcements. In addition, I killed two people."

Roy explained.

Then, he smiled and said, "The extra bonus is that one of Backlund's bodyguards is a wizard. Through the wizard, I learned the code name of the pillar in Backlund."

"What code name?"

"Mysterious waiter, based on the code name guess, I think the other party may be a Sequence 4 occultist."

Roy said.

Then, he gave some key answers, such as the intention of Moss Ascetic Order to unite with organizations such as the Aurora Society.

After hearing this, Liyana said: "I will inquire about this information. If there is any result, I will go to Harvest Church to find it."

"Thank you."

……

Back home, Roy studied the extraordinary characteristics of the Arsonist and finally confirmed one thing.

Extraordinary characteristics are, after all, Extraordinary characteristics.

It is relatively convenient and stable, has basically no negative effects, and there is no risk of extraordinary characteristic transfer.

but.

Correspondingly, it is not that convenient to use, and it is destined not to be as convenient and powerful as an extraordinary item that specifically taps out one of the abilities.

For example, the extraordinary characteristics of the arsonist.

Roy can also use it to set fires and even release fire-like witchcraft, but it is not as convenient and powerful as a real arsonist, and it is not as good as the Arson Chain in controlling flames.

This is also the overall situation of the Witcher sequence.

Anyway.

The extraordinary characteristics of this arsonist have greatly enhanced the methods Roy can use, not to mention that it is just an additional bonus.

Unfortunately, all the magic potions of this arsonist were prepared by Beckron, so he did not know the formula.

otherwise.

Roy can also use it to divine potion formulas and obtain more information.

Most importantly, he obtained the briber, the corrupted baron's potion formula, and information about the Trappist Order of Morse.

but.

The former has not arrived yet.

Roy returned to reality, thought for a moment, wrote the news he had received today into a letter, and then delivered it to Bernadette through a messenger.

She needs to know this.

Moss Ascetic Order may not be able to deal with Bernadette, but it can still hunt down the mid- to low-sequence Beyonders underneath.

I am close to the Harvest Church, and with the protection from above, those people may not be able to find my exact whereabouts.

but.

Not necessarily Hyde.

Soon, a gust of wind blew by and took the letter away.

Roy leaned on the chair and waited quietly for a reply. After a while, the pea vine hung from it.

Bernadette came in person!

She sat on the pea vine with a serious look on her face.

"what's the situation?"

"When I was cooperating with my friend to assassinate Ambassador Intis, I discovered that there was a wizard among his bodyguards..."

Roy explained the whole story in detail again.

After hearing this, Bernadette's face became solemn——

The Hidden Sage noticed her!

As a high-ranking person on the secret-peeping path, the resurrected Hidden Sage indeed has a very high ability to influence those below, so it is not surprising to know that she has been promoted.

but.

He will order the Trappist Order of Moss to target the elemental Dawn...

This was something Bernadette didn't expect.

Think for a while.

She said quietly: "I know."

"Queen of Mystery, who is this mysterious waiter?"

"A Sequence 4 occultist is not strong among the ten pillars, but he is not very weak either. He is considered to be at a medium level."

Bernadette replied, "He is very devout to the Hidden Sage, so the waiter who calls himself the Hidden Sage should note that it is said that he also has certain abilities similar to induction and hypnosis."

Induction, hypnosis?
The extraordinary items of the audience path, or this guy studied the high-level blood of the audience path...

If it is the latter, it may be difficult for this mysterious waiter to be promoted, but his abilities must be very strange.

Roy's face froze.

"Ma'am, I'll keep an eye out."

"Well, when you meet him, read my honorable name. I will always be in Backlund during this time."

Bernadette said, glanced at his waist, and smiled, "You seem to be less resistant to that pendant."

"I can't resist, I can only enjoy it."

Roy smiled helplessly.

"The Church of the Mother Earth is more welcoming to other paths. Even if you become a favored one, don't worry too much. It might be more beneficial to you."

Bernadette stared forward, then looked back, "Don't forget my commission."

"I remember, by the way, Queen of Mystery, I want to ask something."

Roy said suddenly.

Bernadette was about to leave, but when she heard his words, she immediately stopped and looked back at Roy.

"I heard that Green was once a subordinate of Emperor Russell. Is this true?"

Roy asked calmly.

He wasn't sure whether he could deceive Bernadette by pretending to be shocked, so he simply responded with a calm and thoughtful emotion and expression.

Bernadette nodded slightly: "Yes, and my last name is Gustave."

"really."

Roy exhaled slowly, "What I want to ask is, do you know what Emperor Russell wrote in his notes?"

"do not know."

Bernadette shook her head, "No one can understand that kind of writing, only the emperor himself knows it."

"Including my ancestors?"

Roy asked in a low voice.

"Of course, no one else has mastered this text. Even I only know part of the pronunciation, but don't know the entire text."

Bernadette replied.

Then, her eyes suddenly brightened, and she stared at Roy sideways.

"Does anyone know this kind of writing?"

"I'm not sure. I met a person at a party. He said that there was a person who forged the emperor's diary."

Roy replied.

Bernadette pursed her lips slightly, unable to stabilize her mood.

"Who is he? Why do you know it is a diary, not notes?"

"I don't know. He is very mysterious and has the ability to resist tracking and divination. He feels very powerful to me. I don't dare to track him at all."

Roy replied regretfully.

Bernadette's eyes turned cold, and she connected many clues in an instant.

"That bookmark."

"what?"

"That bookmark may be a card of blasphemy. The person you met is probably an extraordinary person who has mastered the emperor's writing. He learned of the existence of the bookmark through his diary."

Bernadette's thoughts were racing.

Subsequently.

"Find him now! Or any information about him!"

"But there are no clues at all."

Roy was confused.

Bernadette shook her head: "No clues are needed. He has mastered the secret of writing and will definitely actively collect diaries. I will give you two pages of the Emperor's diary. You can sell it at the party."

"But I'm no match for him."

"As long as he appears, you can silently recite my honorable name, and I will rush over as soon as possible."

Bernadette replied.

After hearing this, Roy hesitated for a moment and did not respond for a long time.

Bernadette said: "If I can catch him, I can give you the main ingredients for the Sequence 4 potion."

What the hell!

sequence 4?

Occultist?

Roy was shocked from the bottom of his heart this time.

For a moment, he had the urge to sell Klein.

The higher each route goes, the more difficult it is to collect materials. The main materials at Sequence 4 can no longer be easily measured in gold pounds.

Bernadette is spending a lot of money!

pity.

Roy didn't really want to betray Klein, he just wanted to get a few diaries from Bernadette.

He gritted his teeth and said: "I will try my best, but there is no guarantee that I can catch him. After all, he may have already gotten what he wants."

"It's not your fault if I can't catch him."

Bernadette said, "The Blasphemous Card has a very high level and can resist divination and prophecy. Unless you meet him directly, you cannot track it through any extraordinary means."
