Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

#13 - New member: Mr. Hermit

In a previous project, Audis accidentally discovered that the "Recorder's" ability, the "Reader" pathway's Sequence 6 "Scholar's" "Imitation" ability, and the "Scroll Professor's" ability to create scrolls, were all advanced applications of mysticism knowledge and symbols under the effect of extraordinary abilities!

So he began to study the abilities of these three Sequence 6s one by one. Today, it was time to study the "Recorder."

First, he needed to find information. The light spheres that made up the tower were various kinds of knowledge. He only needed to touch the light sphere in the center of the room to search with his mind.

However, Audis could only search for partial knowledge at present. For example, he had once searched for information about "potion formulas," but only obtained the formulas for the two Sequence 9s, "Secret Keeper" and "Scholar."

Audis could feel that he couldn't find a lot of knowledge, seemingly because his authority wasn't high enough.

However, the knowledge he could find at present was enough for him to complete most of his research.

After searching for a period of time, Audis found that the descriptions of the "Recorder's" ability were basically: The caster's eyes reflected a illusory, slowly turning book. The mutated "brain" reproduced the target's extraordinary ability, and then drove the activated parts of the cells to form corresponding symbols, patterns, and marks to complete the storage.

This was "I came, I saw, I recorded," using the spirit as a pen and the spiritual body as paper!

Audis looked at the information in a daze: "What is the principle of storing extraordinary abilities with symbols, patterns, and marks? Is it just the 'black box' operation generated by extraordinary characteristics?

"Since symbols, patterns, and marks are used, can we use corresponding extraordinary materials and corresponding magic circles to replicate this ability?"

About two years ago, Audis still thought that such research was a waste of effort. Was it really worth it to do a lot of research and experiments, and finally use priceless extraordinary materials to create a low-profile version of a magic circle with similar abilities?

Like the "Eight-Pointed Star" magic circle he built in the basement, the transmission distance could not exceed 50 kilometers, and it could only establish a fixed channel. After using it once, he had to rest for 1 hour before he could use it again.

The initial cost of the entire magic circle was about 4,000 pounds, and the later maintenance also required about 300 pounds per year.

If it was benchmarked against the sealed artifact of the "Traveler," the price would be about 12,000 pounds. Of course, because the sealed artifacts of this pathway are relatively scarce, there would definitely be a premium.

Taking 12,000 pounds as an example, the initial cost of the teleportation magic circle was already one-third of this price, but the effect was far from that of the sealed artifact. After all, the sealed artifact with the "Travel" ability could go wherever it wanted.

In terms of effect, the low-profile version of the magic circle was actually very uneconomical.

But later, Audis decided to continue to conduct in-depth research on magic circles and mystical symbols, because such research would definitely cause huge losses to others, but not to him.

The research process was completed in the "Knowledge Wilderness." The magic circles built in the outside world were almost 100% successful, saving a lot of experimental costs and time.

In addition, although the manufactured magic circles had very poor effects, they were good at avoiding negative effects.

As long as extraordinary materials were used, certain negative effects would occur, but these negative effects were basically borne by the magic circle.

Like the "Teleportation Magic Circle" that Audis created, as long as the rule of not repeating the use within one hour was followed, the negative effects could hardly be felt.

This was also the reason why the later maintenance cost so much money. The gems in the magic circle, as well as the symbols and graphics written with spiritual materials, would crack or fall off after being used about 50 times, and needed to be maintained.

For Audis personally, this research direction still had considerable prospects, but there were still many problems to be solved, and it could only be researched and used on a small scale, and was not universally applicable.

Audis first spent more than a dozen hours searching for and reading relevant information. Of course, he would rest for two hours every 5 hours of work.

He didn't need to sleep here, but he needed to rest, otherwise it would affect work efficiency.

After that, he would do specific theoretical research, which required the use of the light sphere in the center of the room. Audis named it the "Central Simulator." It could simulate the extraordinary abilities of all pathways here, but the level of abilities was currently limited to Sequence 5 and below.

At the same time, it could also simulate the attacks of targets or enemies to test Audis's research results. The simulation here was almost completely equivalent to the effect under the same conditions in the outside world.

After Audis told the light sphere his needs, a virtual figure appeared in front of him and began to repeatedly use the "Record" ability.

After Audis's continuous observation, he had a research direction.

First of all, he understood that the process of using this ability was that the "Recorder's" mutated brain first analyzed the extraordinary ability that appeared in front of him, and could use corresponding symbols, patterns, and marks to "record" that ability in the extraordinary person's spiritual body.

The process of analysis was the ability that the extraordinary person possessed after taking the potion. This was the first "black box" operation of the ability.

In addition, extraordinary people did not need any learning. Corresponding symbols, patterns, and marks would appear in their brains. This knowledge was also provided by extraordinary characteristics.

Audis's research direction was, could an extraordinary person who possessed relevant knowledge of corresponding symbols, patterns, and marks, but was not from the "Apprentice" pathway, analyze an extraordinary ability?

Of course, without extraordinary characteristics, even if the ability was analyzed, it would not be possible to use the ability like a "Recorder," but if it could reach the step of analysis, it would already be a great progress.

This was like cracking a code. Once it was cracked, it would be possible to simulate all extraordinary abilities.

After half a month of research, Audis's research finally made some progress. He found that the symbols, patterns, and marks that made up the extraordinary ability had a certain regularity in the order of arrangement.

This showed that there was really hope for cracking extraordinary abilities, but this research process must be very long.

This discovery was enough for Audis to report to the "Knowledge Wilderness." He left the dream and would continue the remaining research next Sunday.

Audis didn't plan to stay here for too long, so as not to confuse reality and dreams after leaving here.

After leaving the "Knowledge Wilderness," he still needed to constantly "meditate" to concentrate his mind and tell himself that he was now in the real world, and that was just a dream.

No mistake, one first, one first, one inside, one content, one in, one look!

Audis glanced at his pocket watch in the dim night. It was past three in the morning, and he could still sleep for a while and rest.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Audis made a detour to buy a red bean toast to reward himself for his research discoveries last night. This was one of the few foods he liked in this world.

Carrying the toast to the store, when he opened the door, his spirituality felt that there were eyes watching here again.

But he still didn't feel any danger. Audis wasn't too worried about this. After all, he had the Steam and Machinery Church to back him up, and ordinary extraordinary people wouldn't dare to attack him.

If he felt danger, Audis would go to the Steam Church and ask for help.

Monday was the day for Audis's subordinates to "hand in their accounts," and the day to clear the inventory and income of the herbal medicine store.

Audis spent the entire morning calculating and going over the accounts. At half past two in the afternoon, he told Caina, the fifteen or sixteen-year-old shop assistant, that he wanted to rest for a while and that no one should disturb him.

Lying in the room in the backyard, Audis took out his pocket watch and stared at the ticking second hand. It was his first time participating in the Tarot Society, and he was a little excited.

At three o'clock sharp, the boundless gray fog engulfed Audis's vision. When he came back to his senses, he had already appeared in a magnificent hall, on one side of a long bronze table.

"Justice" Audrey Hall stood up and bowed: "Good afternoon, Mr. Fool!"

Then her greeting paused, because she saw a new member.

"The Fool" Klein introduced: "This is a new member, Mr. 'Hermit'."
