Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery

“Of course, I know,” Audis said, “But you also know that my current business is getting bigger and bigger. If I don’t get promoted, my status will be seriously mismatched with my strength, and I will be in danger then.”

This was the reason he had thought of long ago.

Max nodded: “That’s true.”

He took a deep breath: “Alright, as long as you are prepared, I will apply for the 'Brawling Scholar' potion formula and extraordinary materials for you in a while.”

The contributions Audis has made over the years are enough to get these from the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery: “Okay, thank you.”

Then he asked again: “Can my remaining contribution points still get me the Sequence 7 potion formula?”

Max simply put down his knife and fork and said seriously: “Promotion is not a joke! Carelessness can lead to loss of control! Especially promoting to Sequence 7, which is already considered a 'Middle Sequence', there is considerable risk!”

“I suggest you consider the issue of promotion three to five years after becoming a 'Brawling Scholar'.”

Audis thought to himself: That’s because you don’t know the “acting method.”

He said: “I’m just asking.”

“It should be possible.” Max picked up his knife and fork again to answer the previous question: “But for the specific situation, I have to ask Captain Ikanse.

“You should be clear that potion formulas at this level rarely circulate on the market.”

Audis focused on cutting his steak: “I know.”

The topic ended there, and then they started talking about the international situation and the anecdotes of Backlund. Of course, there was no shortage of teasing about the terrible weather in this large city.

That afternoon, Audis received the “Brawling Scholar” potion formula and two main ingredients.

It wasn't until he returned to the resting room and laboratory of the Gale Herbalist Shop that Audis opened the potion formula and looked at it:

“Sequence 8: Brawling Scholar

“Main ingredients: Mottled Spirit Monkey’s complete pituitary gland, complete flower of the Blood-colored Hyacinth.

“Supplementary ingredients: Three pure black poppy flowers, 12 grams of dragon tooth grass powder, 15 ml of pure dew of boxwood soaked for one year, 25 ml of pure water.”

Audis put the two extraordinary materials on the table. The herbalist shop had all these auxiliary materials, and he went to the front counter to get them one by one.

Having gathered the auxiliary materials, Audis prepared to advance tonight.

Just as he was about to put away the extraordinary materials, a tall and mysterious figure suddenly appeared in Audis's mind, it was Mr. "Fool"!

Immediately afterwards, the figure disappeared, and a picture appeared in his mind again. A middle-aged man with an unclear appearance made a praying gesture and said in a low voice: "Great Mr. Fool, please convey my question to Mr. 'Hermit'.

“I want to ask 'Hermit', besides the scepter mentioned the day before yesterday, does he have any other extraordinary weapons?”

Audis recognized that the person praying was "World."

After the other party finished asking the question, the picture in Audis's mind disappeared. After thinking for a while, he understood that eight or nine times out of ten, Klein had taken a fancy to the "Flame Arrow."

So he also made a praying gesture and whispered: "The Fool who does not belong to this era…

“Respected Mr. Fool, please tell Mr. 'World', I also have an extraordinary weapon, but I don’t plan to sell it. If Mr. 'World' needs to use it recently, I can rent it to him.

“The rent is 20 pounds a day. It is a revolver called 'Flame Arrow'. By injecting spirituality and using special bullets, it can fire a flame slightly larger than a fist.

“The bullets need to be paid for by oneself, 1 pound per bullet.”

… …

15 Minsk Street.

Klein, who had already traded the "Sun Brooch" with the old gentleman of "Eye of Wisdom", sighed in his heart after hearing the "Hermit's" quotation: How cheap!

The enchanted bullets he bought at the "Eye of Wisdom" gathering before cost 10 pounds each.

But thinking that the bullets of the "Flame Arrow" only have the ability similar to a "small fireball", and there is no extraordinary effect, the damage caused to "werewolves" and "living corpses" is very limited.

Far less powerful than enchanted bullets…

However, it's cheap enough!

Klein thought that he could rent it to Maric, which would definitely catch his opponent off guard.

Well… rent it!

Klein belatedly realized: "Hermit" has a very business-minded mind. The Tarot Society is not like other extraordinary gatherings. With Mr. Fool's testimony and credit guarantee, members can rent extraordinary weapons or even magical items to each other.

Even if Mr. Fool is just an empty shell at the moment, Klein doesn't intend to do anything empty-handed.

After thinking about it, Klein not only plans to rent the "Flame Arrow", but also plans to rent the scepter, after all, there is an ability in the scepter that can restrain evil creatures!

However, this fee will not be paid by him, but by Maric.

… …

51 Henry Street.

Without any mistakes, one first one hair one content one in one look one look!

After receiving Klein's order, Audis immediately started making a batch of special bullets.

At around 5 pm, the two completed the transaction. Under the guidance of "World", Audis placed two candles on the table, and in the middle drew the mystagogy symbols composed of the pupil-less eyes and twisted curves representing "Fool".

Then he built a "wall of spirituality" and sacrificed the "Flame Arrow" and the scepter, as well as 30 special bullets, to Mr. Fool in a sacrificial way.

The right to use these two weapons expires at 5 pm tomorrow, so Audis guessed that Klein and the others should be acting tonight.

After completing this transaction, Audis was busy at the herbalist shop until after 9 pm as usual.

After the buddy Caina left, Audis closed the shop door and the gas lamp, and came to the rest room and laboratory in the backyard. First, he adjusted his state by "meditation", and then began to prepare the potion.

He washed a beaker, wiped it clean, and after confirming again that all the materials were in place, he first put three pure black beautiful flowers into the beaker.

This is a pure black poppy flower. Pure black poppy is different from ordinary poppy. It is a spiritual material. Both the fruit and the flower have a strong anesthetic effect.

Then Audis weighed 12 grams of dragon tooth grass powder on the balance. This is a relatively popular and versatile spiritual material. The herbalist shop has ready-made powder.

Then he measured 15 ml of golden liquid with a measuring cylinder, which was pure dew of boxwood soaked for one year, and finally added pure water.

These spiritual materials did not react in any way in the beaker. The flowers were still flowers, and the liquid was still liquid.

Audis took out the "protagonist" of the potion, two extraordinary materials.

First, he added the "Mottled Spirit Monkey Pituitary Gland", which seemed to be twinkling with starlight and looked somewhat beautiful.

When the extraordinary material was added to the beaker, it immediately reacted with the spiritual material, making a "sizzling" sound.

Then Audis opened the box containing the "Blood-colored Hyacinth Flower". The blood-red flower lay inside, as if it had been soaked in bright red blood.

The flower still looked very fresh, as if it had just been picked, and it still twitched occasionally, as if convulsing after death.

Putting this small hyacinth into the beaker, the liquid inside seemed to be boiling, bubbling, and soon turned into a viscous liquid of alternating white and red.

Audis took a deep breath, picked up the beaker, and drank it all in one gulp.
