Just as Lin Ruo had guessed, when Lin Ruo contacted Justice Audrey through the Fool's card communicator, she had not yet purchased a suitable weapon for Little Sun.
After some communication, Justice Audrey gladly accepted Lin Ruo's proposal to first buy the "Purification Axe" from him and then trade it to Little Sun.
Firstly, Justice Audrey believed that Lin Ruo would not cheat anyone, after all, the Chariot's reputation in the Tarot Club was outstanding.
Secondly, Justice Audrey was actually worried that she would not be able to buy a suitable Beyonder weapon at the Beyonder gathering in the next few days. Now that there was a ready-made one, she was naturally happy to see it happen.
So soon, Little Sun Derrick Berg, who was far away in the City of Silver in the Forsaken Land of the Gods, received a notification from the Fool:
"Justice has sacrificed the weapon to me, you can prepare for the ritual of granting."
Miss Justice is so efficient... After the gray fog in front of him receded, Derrick Berg, who was checking the classics in the library, immediately closed the book in his hand. Although surprised by Miss Justice's efficiency, the expectation for the new weapon quickly made him leave the library and return home to prepare for the granting ritual.
During this period, Little Sun Derrick Berg's gaze fell on the knight's straight sword beside the table many times, and his heart became more and more expectant.
I wonder what kind of complete weapon it will be, I hope it is a straight sword, well, a broadsword or a greatsword would also be good, but if it's too big, I won't be able to wield it well... While imagining the appearance of his new weapon in his mind, Derrick Berg prepared the granting ritual.
Soon, the ritual was answered, and then Derrick Berg saw an... axe appear on the altar where the ritual was set up.
An axe! ! !
Derrick Berg's eyes widened.
...
"Is Little Sun satisfied with his new weapon?" In the living room, Lin Ruo, who was drinking tea and reading a magazine, raised his eyes and saw Klein open his eyes, and immediately asked with a smile.
"He should be quite satisfied." Klein said, still not thinking too much about it.
"That's good!" Lin Ruo's smile became even brighter. He glanced at Klein, then stood up, stretched, and said, "I'll go back first... Collect information properly, Backlund is waiting for you to save it!"
"By the way, focus on digesting the potion these few days. If you don't reach the Mid Sequence, you don't even have the qualifications to hang out in Backlund."
"Got it, I will digest the Clown potion as soon as possible." Klein replied, also starting to think about how to digest the last bit of the Clown potion.
Lin Ruo then returned to the office and sat down at the table again to read.
Lin Ruo was reading historical documents he had borrowed from the Evernight Church. Although these documents did not contain any records related to him, studying them could enrich his knowledge and expand his horizons. Secondly, by analyzing and deducing the situation of the Fourth Epoch through various records, and continuing to compare it with the original content he understood, he might be able to reverse-engineer his past experiences.
Moreover, to be fair, the things recorded in these historical materials are quite interesting.
At least for Lin Ruo, reading these things is a good pastime.
...
August 27th, Monday, Backlund.
Inside the alchemy laboratory of Lin Ruo's office, Klein was concentrating on preparing the Magician potion.
Buzz!
As the spinal fluid of the Evil-patterned Black Panther and the real roots of the Mist Treant, which served as the main ingredients, were placed into the glass container, a tooth-aching sound rang out. Then, a light white mist rose from above the liquid, seeming to escape the glass container, but was then pulled back by an invisible force.
Soon, the glass container calmed down, only the red, orange, yellow, green, and other colors in the liquid were constantly spreading out, just like fireworks blooming in the night sky, constantly disappearing and reappearing.
Seeing this, Klein quickly poured out the liquid in the glass container, pouring every last drop into the transparent glass bottle that had been prepared long ago.
"Magician" potion successfully prepared!
"Your potion looks much better than the Pyromaniac potion I drank back then, tsk tsk, flashy." Lin Ruo, who had been watching from the sidelines, commented. Under his supervision, after these few days of digestion, Klein finally completely digested the "Clown" potion yesterday. Because the materials for the "Magician" potion had been prepared long ago, Klein did not delay much, and adjusted his state today, intending to advance to Magician.
And because Klein's new residence did not have things like a laboratory, and it was not convenient to borrow the alchemy laboratory from the Evernight Church in Backlund, Lin Ruo simply let Klein come to his office to prepare the potion—although strictly speaking, as long as the steps and materials were correct, even preparing the potion in an iron pot for stewing vegetables would succeed, but people, living, always have to have a sense of ritual, right?
Anyway, his Ross Earl's vest has already been handed over to Klein.
Klein ignored Lin Ruo's complaints. He just took out the gold coin he always used for divination and divined that the potion he had just prepared was very successful.
"Pa—"
The gold coin landed on his palm, with the head facing up, indicating that his Magician potion was indeed successfully prepared.
Klein breathed a sigh of relief, and then had the space to respond to Lin Ruo's complaint just now, saying: "What's the use of looking good, the Clown potion also looks good, it's still hard to drink if it's hard to drink."
"Looking good at least allows you to hypnotize yourself, it's always better than not having color, aroma, or taste." Lin Ruo said with a smile, watching Klein then start to adjust his state, gather his emotions, and ensure that he could take the Magician potion in the best state, and opened his mouth to say: "Don't worry, with me here, even if there are some problems with your subsequent advancement, I can basically solve them."
Klein remained noncommittal, sat in the chair, picked up the glass bottle, and poured the entire bottle of "Magician" potion down.
Lin Ruo watched this scene. Under his gaze, the skin outside of Klein's clothes quickly changed. Lin Ruo could see that the skin on one of his hands had a lot of deep wrinkles, as if he had aged a lot in an instant, while the skin on the other arm became transparent, even allowing people to see the blood vessels, muscles, and so on inside.
I have to say, this scene is really terrifying in the eyes of people who don't know why.
But Lin Ruo knew that this was normal. Almost all formal Beyonders will have such a process of change when advancing, this is the potion transforming their bodies.
But I am different, I drink Sequence 7 potions like drinking water...
Lin Ruo complained in his heart, and then saw Klein open his eyes, his eyes clear.
This made Lin Ruo breathe a sigh of relief, knowing that Klein had successfully advanced.
At the same time, some information also emerged in Lin Ruo's mind. Just as he had expected, the connection between him and Klein had once again undergone some changes, and the Beyonder power was the same.
