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

Chapter 3 The mysterious palace, attracting people

In the dark hall of the church.

"Low-sequence potions are very simple. The materials, order and quantity are all correct. Basically, there is no big problem."

Karl stirred the pure water, put in the auxiliary ingredients, and then——

"The Brain of the Ferganian Owl."

Add another piece of material.

"Memory dust."

After stirring for a while, Carl poured it out.

"finished."

"..."

Roy looked at the purple viscous liquid with a complicated expression.

Potion.

It really doesn't look very tasty.

He took a deep breath, then poured it into his mouth, swallowing it down in one breath.

The taste is cool, like jelly, the kind that has been chilled.

After drinking it, my head seemed to become clear instantly.

but.

The next moment, the weird tinnitus appeared in his ears again.

Within a few seconds, his brain and eyes stung slightly, and his whole body couldn't stop shaking and twitching. He looked around, and saw a stream of indescribable information surrounding him.

The ravings of the hidden sage also emerged.

He restrained his thoughts, meditated hard, and allowed himself to clear his mind.

Then, after taking the magic potion, Roy's abnormal symptoms disappeared.

He vaguely felt——

If you enter the mysterious house at this moment, there may be new changes.

Karl narrowed his eyes and smiled: "Do you know how to meditate?"

"Meditation? No, I can't, but when I feel in pain, I feel better if I empty my mind."

Roy's face was pale and his tone was weak.

Karl nodded and said: "No wonder you can survive the ritual. Your spirituality and intuition are far beyond ordinary people, but you are also very unfortunate, because you are destined to be chased by Him. Okay, I will teach you the complete meditation method. "

As he spoke, he began to ramble on about the process.

Roy did as he was told.

After a while, he finished his performance and asked, "What kind of existence is He that you are talking about?"

"The Hidden Sage, an evil god."

Karl said sternly, "The people who sold you the ritual are members of the Moss Ascetic Order. They have gone crazy under the torture of the Hidden Sage. We will continue to track and attack them."

"The Hidden Sage..."

Roy looked thoughtful.

Karl said: "In addition, you must learn to control your spiritual consciousness and your secret eyes. You must know that many things in the extraordinary world will cause you to go crazy."

"Thank you for your teaching, I will remember it."

Roy saluted solemnly.

He also found out.

Before drinking the potion, he only passively triggered the spiritual vision, but now he directly triggered the Secret Eye——

At this moment, when he raised his head, he unconsciously saw Karl's condition.

The low-sequence Eye of Secrets can only act on itself, and what it can see is limited to what can be seen with the naked eye. But in the mysterious world, looking around will definitely cause trouble.

such as.

In the original work, a certain spy was punished for this.

"But how do I exercise and control it?"

"Low-sequence voyeuristic eyes cannot be controlled, so you must control your desire to spy, cultivate your cooperation with spirituality, and avoid dangerous things."

Karl said seriously, "This is also the link where secret peepers are most likely to get into trouble."

Roy gave it a try, then nodded slightly.

The low-sequence Secret Eye is more like a passive ability.

No wonder Cattleya looked directly at the Fool.

On the one hand, he is probably really curious, but on the other hand, it is also related to the uncontrollability of the eye that peeps into secrets.

Peeper...

If it weren't for that motto, many voyeurs would have lost control and become monsters early on.

The mysterious world is really scary!
Roy gained a new understanding of this crazy world.

Karl handed over a piece of paper: "Starting tomorrow, you can go to work at this address. Just say it was introduced by Harlan. Someone will receive and train you there, and you will temporarily receive a trial weekly salary of 3 pounds."

"it is good."

Roy took a look.

Black Iron Bar.

It’s such a simple and crude name, and you can tell it has the background of the Church of Steam at first glance.

"By the way, how did you feel after taking the magic potion just now?"

Karl said from the side.

Roy thought for a while and replied: "He just imparted some knowledge to me, which caused me to have severe tinnitus, but the rest is gone." "It's normal. This is the price of being a secret peeper."

……

"Because of this, I don't want you to become a secret spy. As a half-secret spy, at least your life will not be in danger."

Guna said as he walked, "The mysterious world is full of madness and death."

"Compared to Lado, I'm already lucky."

Roy Road.

Guna sighed: "His grades are very good and his family conditions are also very good. In fact, he had a chance to become a generalist."

"..."

Roy didn't know how to proceed.

After a while, he said: "Teacher, what is your order?"

"I'm just an ordinary generalist, and I don't want to improve it. What it does to me is that I don't have memory loss even at this age, and I can do better research."

Guna said.

Roy was speechless.

He has different pursuits from Master Guna.

The other party is a real scholar, but he is not. After becoming a secret peeper, he will pursue knowledge, but if he becomes a hunter, he may be looking for prey on the streets at this moment.

"Leave through the back door with me. Don't let Lado's parents see you. Go to my place to read for a while and then go back in the evening."

Guna whispered.

Roy nodded silently.

……

At night, the moon is extremely full.

Back home, Roy sat on a chair, his thoughts wandering.

Lado's madness is the normal status quo of a voyeur.

but.

He vaguely remembered that a secret spy almost went crazy, but was finally saved by a certain being.

How did that person do it?
"Maybe I should go to the Mysterious Palace to think. With all the memories, I can better come up with countermeasures."

Thinking of this, he flew to the mysterious cabin.

this time.

Roy can sense the increase in the palace and his own authority. Now the palace has one more function -

He can invite others into the temple.

The invitee can directly obtain knowledge at the same cost as him.

of course.

In the current hall, there is only one page of magic paper recording the ritual of the Hidden Sage, and a book recording the Hermetic language.

Ok?
There are two more books.

"Language of the Dragon"

"Introduction to Ritual Magic"

The second book records a ritual magic that is used to pray for the help of ritual magic objects, which is different from the previous rigid formula.

This piece of paper describes in detail the principles of the magic of the prayer ceremony——

Use materials that the other party is interested in as a medium, and use rituals to expand their effects and arouse the interest of mysterious beings.

It is not only used to pray to righteous gods, but also to evil gods, demons and even yourself.

of course.

Once the prayer is successful, it does mean that you have received a response, but most of the time, the other party will also pay attention to the supplicant, and generally speaking, there will not be a good ending.

Rado Langer is a good example.

Both kinds of knowledge are quite useful.

He absorbed them all, then copied them and put them back on the corresponding bookshelf.

Then, he started thinking.

"Klein can use the Source Castle to isolate the knowledge that Cattleya was instilled. Can I do the same? In this way, I can gain double infusion from the Hidden Sage, and I can also prevent Lado from going crazy by giving it directly."

Roy squinted his eyes and tried to picture Lado in his mind.

pity--

There are no changes to the Mystic Hall.

"Maybe I should let him take the initiative to chant my name? But he is already a madman, how can he chant my name."

Although the Hidden Sage is not that boring, monitoring the two of them all day long can make the madman pronounce the honorary name logically and secretly, which is an outrageous requirement in itself.

Roy shook his head: "Maybe I'm not strong enough. When I get to a higher level, I might be able to pull him in directly."

Now-

A starry spot of light appeared in front of his eyes.

Some are bright, some are dark.

There may be stars representing Lado inside, but unfortunately, if you pick one of dozens of star points, the chance of selecting Lado is almost zero.

He thought for a moment, then moved his finger and pointed at a darker star.

The next moment, a figure appeared.

This is a curled up figure.
