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

Chapter 20 Hello, Mr. Pales
"This is……"

Leonard opened his eyes in confusion, and then a flash of horror flashed through his heart.

What is this place?
He looked around in fear, and finally focused on the terrifying existence in front of him.

The endless entanglement of spiritual numbers and knowledge turned into the outline of a human figure.

He quickly averted his eyes -

Just by looking at it, Leonard felt a strong spiritual warning, as if it would explode and be annihilated if he looked at it twice more.

Do not look directly at God!
Such thoughts suddenly flashed through his mind.

Leonard's lips trembled slightly: "Sir, what can I do for you?"

"You can call me Mr. Hermit."

Roy chuckled, "Your situation is very interesting, so I took a second look. It's fate, so I'm willing to give you a chance to trade."

"A chance to trade?"

Leonard was puzzled and looked suspicious.

Roy leaned back.

"Yes, you can exchange your knowledge for knowledge, or other answers. Of course, there are some things that you cannot know, so I will refuse the transaction."

"You have to understand that in this world, some knowledge will bring you disaster."

"Alternatively, you can choose not to trade at all."

After Leonard heard this, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief——

At least the other party didn't plan to do anything to him.

He was about to ask to leave, but a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

old man...

Who is it?

He hesitated for a moment and said, "If I want to exchange my secrets, what price will it cost?"

"Believe me, you can never afford the price."

Roy smiled.

This is a secret related to Sequence 1. Let alone Leonard, even if Dunn, as the captain, comes, he can't afford the price unless the other party is willing to offer the Nighthawk's sealed artifact.

"Then I want to know whether his attitude towards me and Nighthawk is good or evil."

Leonard said quickly.

Roy raised his lips slightly: "This also requires a high price."

"What price?"

Leonard said.

"I need you to show your ability in sequence. I am quite curious about the power and knowledge of the Night Path. Of course, I can also give you another choice."

Roy said calmly, "You can also collect information and clues about the Moss Ascetic Order as repayment."

The Trappist Order of Morse.

Isn't that the organization of the Hidden Sages?
Leonard was startled for a moment, then suddenly woke up——

Hidden wise men, hidden ones.

Could it be that……

Is the great being in front of me trying to challenge the evil god?
No.

The other party may be of a similar personality, but there is a problem.

He was so shocked that he felt he had glimpsed a hidden corner.

but.

If only the news about the Moss Trappist Order.

"I will search for you, but how should I inform you afterwards?"

"I will see you again when the time is right. As for the answer to your question, that person is kind and will not do anything to you or the Nighthawks."

……

Blackthorn Security Company.

Leonard, who was holding a collection of poems, suddenly woke up with a trace of surprise on his face. Then he sat upright and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Then, he thought of the final answer.

nice.

This shows that the old man should be trustworthy.

but.

He wanted to observe again.

"Where did you go just now?"

"I don't know either. I just know that the other person calls himself the Hermit. Old man, do you know him? What is his relationship with the Hidden Sage?"

"Hermit?"

Pales pondered for a moment, then shook his head, "I've never heard of it. What happened between you and him?"

"I, I asked a question, I can't be specific."

Leonard was not hiding something, but he really found himself unable to speak.

"You just have to think about it over and over in your mind," Pales said with a smile.

"it is good."

Leonard recalled it over and over again.Pales then stole the memory.

He saw a form composed of spiritual numbers and knowledge, and the other person "smiled" at him——

There was no expression, but that was the expression he felt.

then.

"Hello, Mr. Pales."

Subsequently.

Beside the form of spiritual numbers and knowledge, a pair of monocles emerged.

!!!

Pales was shocked on the spot by the words and monocle that suddenly appeared. His lips trembled. He saw the information stream dissipate and turn into another message.

"That one means well."

After being shocked, he reacted.

The other party just used this to express that he knew far more than he imagined!
The hermit who symbolizes knowledge and mystery.

He was silent for a long time.

"Old man?"

Leonard was a little impatient.

What's the reaction?
Why haven't you replied yet?
Pales was silent for a few seconds, and then said: "I have never heard of the Hermit, but obviously, he is a powerful being with profound knowledge. Maybe he is resurrecting."

"recovery?"

Leonard was shocked.

Pales asked, "Did He ask you to do anything?"

Leonard thought for a while and said: "He asked me to show the power of the pathway or collect information about the Moss Ascetic Order."

"The Ascetic Order of Moss, whose goal is the Hidden Sage."

Pales said, "Unless the other party has said hello in advance, you don't have to tell me about him in the future. You must keep the transaction confidential."

Don't you want to know?

Leonard complained in his heart, then suddenly woke up and instantly understood the reason.

The old man should have the ability to peek into his memory, but he was warned by the other party when he peeked just now.

Leonard was shocked at first, then excited.

really.

I am the protagonist of the era!

First there was the old man, and now there was a resurrected great being summoning him.

Leonard was in a state of excitement.

Feeling the mixed emotions, Pales was speechless for a moment and couldn't help but said: "Leonard, the situation is getting more and more chaotic. You need to speed up the process."

"You mean?"

"Find an opportunity to seek promotion. I feel a faint sense of crisis."

Pales was a little uneasy.

Although the Hidden Sage is a god, no one knows his specific status.

This hermit...

He had a vague feeling that at least he was the King of Angels, and even though he was recovering, his condition was much stronger than him.

There may be a divine war in the future.

however.

Such turmoil is often just the beginning.

Once the war between gods begins, more chaos will follow.

such as.

That Amon!

Without sufficient strength, we simply cannot gain a foothold in the future.

Leonard hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I will submit the application soon."

"..."

Palles sighed, "You should act it out first, at least pretending to have digested it recently. In addition, you have to make some preparations, such as finding someone to test the 'acting method'."

"test?"

After hearing this, Leonard immediately understood what Pales meant.

The church knows about acting.

As long as the acting method is revealed, it will be reasonable for him to quickly digest and promote, and his teammates can also enjoy the benefits.

but.

It is not advisable to make a big splash in the early stage.

He glanced at an empty seat.

Klein!
"Klein took a magic potion yesterday and became a fortune teller?"

"You can find him."

"He is a newcomer, and the fortune teller's direction is very clear, so he is a suitable subject for the experiment."
