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

Chapter 143 Scroll Motto: There is no distinction between high and low knowledge.
"Mr. Green, what you need has been delivered."

"Okay, help me bring it in."

Roy and Soze are already quite familiar with each other. Although they haven't reached the level of "friends" yet, they are relatively close partners.

Compared to Mu Hyul, that stupid guy...

He indeed prefers to get along with Soze. This warrior is more sensible and will not provoke untimely provocations like Mu Hyul.

Even Roy felt that the other party was already a very restrained hunter.

"Mr. Green, what is the effect of the research you mentioned before?"

Sauze was very concerned.

They will set sail in a few days to Fusac in the north.

It would be crucial for the fleet to prepare some scrolls for summoning fresh water. It might be able to save lives at critical moments.

"It's been made, now we just need the materials."

Roy took out a scroll and handed it to him, "Try?"

"So precious..."

Suoze hesitated for a second, then gritted his teeth and said, "The money is mine!"

Roy fetched him a bowl.

Not long after, Soze activated the scroll.

Whoa!

A soft sound.

A group of water condensed from the sky and fell into the basin. The water looked very clear, but if you look closely, there were still some impurities.

Roy said: "The essence of witchcraft is to use spirituality, magic symbols and materials to leverage the power of nature. Therefore, the quality and purity of water are affected by the local air environment."

"What about this bowl of water?"

"You can drink it, but it's best to boil it, otherwise you may get sick."

Roy said and smiled, "After all, backlund, how many days a year can it be completely sunny?"

"You are right."

Suoze nodded with deep feeling, "I have been here in Backlund for so long, and there are only a handful of opportunities for me to really see the sky. Of course, it may be because I am not rich enough."

"It makes sense. If we were in the West End and Queens, we shouldn't be troubled by these problems."

Roy teased.

Because of the wind direction, Queens, the West Side and the North Side are not troubled by pollution, so that area is also the most livable place.

"You are rich, you just can't go because of your status."

Sauze's tone was a little more respectful.

Roy smiled.

The other party should be referring to the work of the Harvest Church. For the people of Feneport, working in the church is a very noble position.

If Sauze knew that Roy was even a favored person of the Mother Earth, I don't know how he would feel.

Suoze looked at the basin of water and thought for a while, and finally took it to the kitchen to boil it.

After a while, he drank a glass of hot water.

The taste of this cup of boiling water is a bit strange, but as Roy said, it has little to do with the scroll, but is affected by the surrounding air.

If you are at sea, the air will not be as bad as here, and the boiled fresh water should be safe to eat.

He was filled with excitement.

Fresh water, food.

These are the two major problems in navigation, and the storage of fresh water is the most difficult of the two. After all, there are many kinds of food, and you can always find something to eat.

but.

Fresh water won't do.

With this kind of scroll, they are equivalent to having a large amount of fresh water that can be produced at any time.

"It's important to note that if a large amount of a reel is used at once, its effectiveness should decrease, so your best bet is to use a small portion a day, or space it out over time."

Roy continued to remind——

Although the scroll has not been manufactured at all, it is still in the "project establishment" stage.

Sauze nodded heavily.

"I see."

The power of nature is limited.

This kind of witchcraft scroll condenses water in the air. If it is used too much in one breath, as a relatively weak material, its effect will be reduced.

Even as a warrior, he could easily understand the meaning of the words.

"Then tomorrow I..."

"No need, just wait here for two or three hours and I can give you a batch later."

Roy took a look at the materials and then made a vow.

Then, Soze sat down in the living room.

After two and a half hours, he received a large number of scrolls, and the ink on the scrolls was all fresh.

They were mass-produced by Roy in the Mystic Palace.

This technique also benefits from the knowledge of the craftsmen.

"How to preserve these scrolls?"

"Just seal them in a box and take them out to stimulate spirituality when needed. Their effects can be preserved for half a year."

Roy said.

"What a great creation!"

Soze sighed, "Please allow me to express my sincere respect to you. Your scroll will save the lives of many crew members."

"It just suddenly occurred to me."

Roy smiled and said, "A qualified scroll professor should not only study high-end scrolls. Low-end scrolls are actually a kind of knowledge. The difficulty is the same up and down."

He was just speaking his thoughts seriously.

but.

When he finished saying this, Roy suddenly felt a strong sense of digestion.

This sentence……

Comply with Professor Scroll's code.

There is no distinction between superior and inferior knowledge.

Exploring upwards and downwards are both part of mysterious knowledge, but the pursuit of upward exploration is power and effect.

The downward direction is to use fewer and cheaper materials to do more things.

As for application and popularization.

These are all incidental effects, not what Professor Scroll is pursuing.

Roy mused, then smiled softly.

You are heading in the right direction!

pity.

This is just one of the directions. To complete Professor Scroll's digestion, it is estimated that several similar maxims will need to be summarized.

He looked at Soze.

"Suoze, you can just pay 20 pounds as the foundry fee for these scrolls. Think of it as a gift for the first transaction and a sign of my sincerity in cooperating with the Mohan family."

"Thank you for your generosity."

Soze decisively took out one hundred pounds, "How much money is money, I just hope that our business can be maintained in the future."

"Will do."

Roy nodded.

The one hundred pounds was simply the OEM fee, and the scrolls he handed to Sauze totaled two hundred, all of which were fresh water scrolls.

The manufacturing fee is equivalent to 10 suler for a scroll.

The price is relatively cheap.

but.

Compared with a low-cost scroll, its foundry fee already accounts for [-]% of the cost.

It can be said.

Most of the value is in the OEM, and the real cost is about 1 suler.

Sauze carried the box and left by himself.

After Roy sent him away, he continued to study which areas could be explored "downward".

Water is one of them.

And...

fire?
Also.

Roy now has the most control over the power of fire.

The extraordinary characteristics of the pyromancer allow him to make better use of flames.

but.

He thought about it and felt that this didn't seem to be the direction he should take.

Although Professor Scroll purely pursues knowledge and does not need to consider the issue of demand, Roy himself needs to consider it.

If a scroll is made that can only light small fire balls, it seems that it has no other use except as a luxurious cigarette lighter.

At last……

Roy thought of a direction.

Weeding reel.

This is needed for farming.

but.

The materials of the weeding technique are directly used to make the weeding scroll. One is too extravagant, and the other requires extremely strong control and a small range.

Anyway-

Directly transform that weeding technique into a scroll, and the result is that it is put on the shelf and has no real practical effect except for being useful.

There is another benefit to studying this scroll.

Roy belongs to the "Earth Church", a church that encourages farming and praises harvests. The price for his asylum is to help promote and expand Lilith's anchor.

This scroll can help the church.

and.

Knowledge is ready -

In order to create the cultivator's extraordinary items, he had previously collected a lot of knowledge about farming, and those could become his ready-made tools.It’s the material…

Roy thought for a moment and glanced at the sky outside.

It's night, but there are still people on the street.

It's still early.

He got up and walked downstairs.

I walked out of the door, walked out of the alley, and was about to walk to the church...

Roy saw a sneaky figure, and he quickly grabbed a piece of the "hermit monk"'s extraordinary properties and covered his body with shadow power.

After a while, he saw a person walking past the street in front. The other person's eyes seemed to be fixed on the Harvest Church.

After a few seconds, he looked elsewhere.

This is an extraordinary one!
Roy held his breath and watched him leave, then thought about the other person's identity.

Could it be from the Trappist Order of Moss?
Not like.

Roy felt vaguely...

The other party should not be a member of the Morse Trappist Order.

It's not that he saw anything, but a simple spiritual intuition. He believed that this was an extraordinary person from the rest of the sequence.

but.

According to the aggregation law of extraordinary characteristics, you may unconsciously attract some extraordinary people of the same or adjacent sequence.

Is the other party a generalist?
Mechanical heart?

Roy stood quietly, waiting for him to leave.

That one didn't stay long.

His gaze lingered everywhere, as if he was casting a wide net for observation, not knowing who he was looking for.

After a long time, when he had completely left, Roy walked out of the alley.

"What are the people from the Church of Steam doing here?"

He looked at the direction the other party was leaving, and couldn't help but feel a trace of suspicion in his heart.

Is it...

Karl knew about himself through the "Arrodes Mirror"?

wrong.

If this is the case, the other party should not be acting like this, he is more like looking for someone.

perhaps……

The other party is not looking for himself, but for the wizard who "cures homeless people." After all, the Moss Ascetic Society can get information about this, so there is no reason why the mechanical heart should not know about it.

The previous acting was still too simple and crude.

of course.

It will be even rougher next time——

If Roy really develops a low-cost or highly practical "weeding scroll", then this scroll will definitely be circulated within the Church of the Earth.

It was only a matter of time before the outside world knew that the Earth Church had a "Scroll Professor."

Roy walked to the Harvest Church opposite.

In the church, the priest still maintained his praying posture, but Emlyn was not in the church.

He seemed to have left.

"Father, where is Emlyn?"

"gone."

Utravsky smiled and said, "He can choose to leave on his own, but he will still come back here every day."

"Is this a psychological suggestion you set up?"

"Yes."

The priest nodded slightly.

Roy couldn't help laughing and said, "I once told Emlyn that if I can't make him believe in the Mother Goddess in a month, I will ask you to remove the psychological suggestion."

"Ok?"

The priest turned his head, thought for a moment and said, "It's not impossible, if this is your decision."

"No, the most interesting thing is his answer."

Roy raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

A look of curiosity appeared on the priest's face, and he asked with a gentle smile: "How did he answer? Does it mean that he can't hold on for that long?"

"Yes, he complained that in another month, he might become a devout believer in the Mother Goddess."

Roy imitated Emlyn's tone.

The priest was extremely surprised. He was shocked at first, and then couldn't help laughing like Roy.

"How could it be? I didn't set any hints in this regard. The Mother Goddess will not force a person to change his faith."

He got it.

Emlyn really agreed with the teachings of the Mother Goddess of the Earth, so subconsciously he felt that he might accept it and become a member of the Church of the Earth.

He immediately made a prayer gesture.

"Thank you Mother Goddess for your guidance!"

"I remember he got here because he got lost, right?"

"Yes, but this is also the guidance of the Mother Goddess."

Row……

Right.

Roy didn't dwell on the topic.

There is no point in arguing about this with a devout believer in the Mother Goddess.

He revealed his true intention.

"Father, I want to get more books and information, and I want to study a weeding scroll."

"Weeding scroll?"

The priest was slightly startled, "What's the use of it?"

"Creating wasteland, weeding, and plant ash can actually help increase the fertility of the land. These are the knowledge recorded in your books."

Roy said, "Weeding can be more thorough and does not require too much manpower. My current idea is..."

He explained what he was thinking.

After that, another huge pie was drawn.

"This is just an initial idea. My final idea is to strictly control the effect of weeding so that it can accurately deal with one kind of weed, but that may involve more than just weeding, but also a deeper level."

The priest's expression gradually changed, and then he closed his eyes and thought.

After two or three seconds, he opened his eyes.

"The church can fully cooperate with you and whatever you need will be delivered immediately."

"Well, now I need a batch of materials."

Roy analyzed and said, "The original material of the weeding technique is the leftover materials of the singing sunflower that do not contain extraordinary properties. I hope that some auxiliary materials or leftover materials related to the solar path can be used."

He explained.

"No matter what it is, we have to start from the basics and explore in depth step by step."

simply put--

He just came here to ask for reimbursement and materials.

This is truly research from scratch, not a small revision like Freshwater Scroll.

Utravsky closed his eyes solemnly.

After a few seconds, he nodded.

"Your request will be fulfilled and the materials will be delivered tomorrow morning."

"Thank you, and thank you also, mother of all."

Roy made a respectful gesture.

Silence from above.

but.

He knew that the other party was watching.

This is no surprise.

Roy had expected that the Earth Mother Goddess might be watching over——

Although what the weeding scroll can do, many people can actually do it. For example, the Harvest Priest can make the required plants grow wildly, thereby plundering the resources of the weeds and causing them to wither.

however.

Scrolls have great convenience——

Ordinary people also have spirituality.

It's just that most people's spirituality is not that strong, and they don't know how to release spells, but scrolls can be used as long as they get certain training.

It's just a difference in power.

and.

Any Extraordinary can use the scroll, but not every Extraordinary is a Harvest Priest.

Sequence 7 is no cabbage.

The next day.

Roy came to the church, and Utravsky pointed to the room over there.

"The materials have arrived."

"So fast?"

"Well, our people went to collect them all night, and then sent them here through special channels such as couriers."

Utravsky said, "This is the first part. I will collect the others slowly and study them first."

Roy opened it and took a look.

They are all sunflowers, sunflowers and other things that the Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun loves.

These are relatively common materials.

Common means cheap.

Roy nodded.

"Okay, I will study their characteristics first to see if I can make a satisfactory and cheap scroll. If so, I will test the effect."

"Ah."
