"No." Klein shook his head and said, "Actually, after learning that the Goddess personally issued the oracle to transfer me to Backlund, I knew that I could no longer be like an ordinary Nighthawk, and I couldn't be an ostrich burying its head in the sand…"
As he spoke, he sighed, no longer maintaining the smile on his face, and returned to the expression that belonged to Klein, somewhat worried, somewhat frustrated, and somewhat confused, and said: "The secret of the gray fog may be bigger than I imagined, and you also said the Law of Beyonder Characteristics Convergence… So I also know that some things cannot be avoided by running away."
"Actually, I'm also quite confused. I don't know why I came here, I don't know what that gray fog is, and I don't know if I still have a chance… to go home…" Klein reached out and rubbed his face, looked at Lin Ruo, and showed a smile that belonged to Klein.
"But at least I'm sure you won't harm me, Teacher."
"Since you think that privately advancing is a better choice for me, then I believe you."
Lin Ruo pursed his lips. He suddenly smiled and said, "Are you really not going to regret it? The main ingredient alone for the Sequence Seven potion costs 500-700 pounds, and the materials for the later Sequences are even more expensive. For example, when advancing to Sequence 5, one extraordinary material can easily cost several thousand pounds!"
Klein suddenly fell silent. He didn't really understand the prices of these Beyonder ingredients, and at this moment, he deeply understood what heartache meant, but he still firmly nodded and said: "No regrets."
"Hahahaha…" Lin Ruo laughed even more happily. After laughing, he patted Klein on the shoulder and said, "Worthy of being my student."
He then said with a rather cheerful mood: "However, although the price of Beyonder ingredients is indeed not cheap, we don't necessarily have to use Beyonder ingredients to concoct potions. Let's learn about Beyonder characteristics."
"Although Beyonders of the Seer pathway are not common, there are still some in the end, and there are quite a few scumbags among them. If you hunt down these scumbags who deserve to die and use their characteristics to concoct potions, you will only have to spend some money on auxiliary Ingredients at most. Moreover, this can also be considered as eliminating harm for the people, you don't need to have any psychological burden, keeping those scumbags in the world will only make more innocent people suffer."
Lin Ruo said with a smile. What he said was not false. Not to mention the guys from the Secret Order, the style of the secret organization once led by Zaratul is not considered upright, only a little better than the Aurora Order. Among the members, I dare not say that all of them deserve to die, but at least a portion of them definitely deserve to be dragged out and shot without wasting bullets.
Even if you really can't find other Seers, you can also go to the eternally immortal Master Luo. As an aide of the ambassador, his hands are stained with the blood of many innocent people, so it's fine if he really dies.
Lin Ruo had no psychological burden about this.
Hunting Beyonders and using Beyonder characteristics to concoct potions… Klein pursed his lips, but did not refute Lin Ruo's suggestion.
He had gradually begun to understand the extraordinary cruelty of this world. Just as he did not reject hunting "Bull" Haisey, if Lin Ruo intended to hunt down Beyonders of the Seer pathway indiscriminately for the sake of his advancement, Klein would definitely object. But if it was hunting down those heinous and deserving Beyonders, Klein would have no objection—even as a Nighthawk, it was originally his responsibility to eliminate these heinous Beyonders who were very dangerous to ordinary people.
Klein was never a saint. He was kind but had his own principles, otherwise he would not have become a famous adventurer in the Five Seas in the original book, making pirates tremble.
"However, just as I said, Beyonders of the Seer pathway are not easy to find, so before finding them, you still have to be prepared and actively collect the corresponding materials for concocting the Magician potion… So after seeing Vice Admiral Iceberg, let's continue hunting pirates. I believe you will soon be able to save enough money to buy the materials." Lin Ruo said with a smile, and his mood became even more cheerful when he thought of the expression that Danitz might have when he saw Rear Admiral Iceberg in two days.
Klein nodded, calculating in his heart the approximate cost of buying Beyonder ingredients for concocting the Magician potion, and suddenly felt a suffocating heartache.
The main material plus auxiliary Ingredients cost at least two thousand gold pounds… Is this the legendary "drinking potion impoverishes three generations"?
No wonder there are few mid-sequence Beyonders. The difficulty of digesting potions is one aspect, and I am afraid that many people are blocked by the cost of these materials… Klein sighed, deeply feeling his poverty.
It was in this situation that the two arrived at the meeting place agreed upon with Danitz, and after waiting for a while, they saw Danitz, who was obviously in a good mood.
The three of them had lunch together and then took their luggage and boarded the White Agate, which was about to depart.
Needless to say, Danitz, who was not short of money, naturally bought a first-class ticket, and Lin Ruo also got first-class tickets for himself and Klein.
The three Beyonders moved into their respective rooms. After putting down his luggage, Lin Ruo began to think about another thing.
He was considering whether to summon a messenger for himself.
This matter was not urgent, but after seeing Danitz, Lin Ruo suddenly realized that it would be better to get himself a messenger before seeing Rear Admiral Iceberg, otherwise, it would be a bit inconsistent with the status of an angel if the dignified angel didn't even have a messenger, and without a messenger, it would be difficult to contact the other party if something really happened on this vast sea.
As someone who had read the original book and taken extra lessons at the Saint Samuel Cathedral of the Church of the Evernight Goddess, Lin Ruo knew two ways to obtain a ritual—the first method was to think of an accurate description, and then hold a ritual to summon the corresponding spirit world creature, and then sign a spirit contract with it, so that the other party can become your messenger, such as the Coconut Tree in the original book became Klein's messenger in this way.
This method is similar to telephone recruitment. The advantage is that it is relatively safe, and you can cancel it at any time if you are not satisfied with the summoned messenger. The disadvantage is that you may not be able to get a satisfactory messenger. After all, before summoning it, no one knows what kind of spirit world creature they can summon.
The second method is to directly enter the spirit world, personally look for a suitable messenger, and after finding one that you like, and being able to persuade the other party, you can sign a contract with the other party, and after recording the accurate description of the other party, you can harvest a satisfactory messenger.
The advantage of this method is that because it is personally selected, it is easier to pick a satisfactory one, but the spirit world is not absolutely safe, and if you are unlucky, something unexpected may happen.
Lin Ruo himself naturally prefers the second method, but before implementing the second method, Lin Ruo intends to confirm another thing.
—Since he has been in this world for a long time, but now he has amnesia, did he ever have his own messenger before this?
