Hmm, if I can't find a Judge in a short time, I can also use the combination of Sefirah Castle and Unshadowed Crucifix to extract the characteristics of my Disciplinary Knight-level Mystical Item, and then use the characteristics to divine the formula. The only problem is that I might not be able to divine the formula, I didn't last time…
With a plan in his heart, Lin Ruo began to take stock of the abilities the Arbiter potion brought him.
First was the physical enhancement. In this aspect, the Arbiter potion brought him slightly less change than the Hunter potion back then, but it was still much stronger than auxiliary Sequence 9s like the Diviner.
Secondly, his combat abilities also received a corresponding boost. Besides close-quarters combat, even if it was his first time handling a certain weapon, he could become familiar with it in an extremely short time, which was considered an enhancement of his learning ability regarding weapons.
Finally, the Arbiter potion also brought him convincing charisma and sufficient authority. This was not only reflected in himself, giving him a dual charisma and authority buff, but also had a hint of extraordinary ability targeting others' thoughts and spirits.
Just as lawyers can use language to a certain extent to twist and guide others' thoughts, the charisma and authority the Arbiter potion brought Lin Ruo also carried some extraordinary qualities. His words and actions would be more easily believed by others, and his authority would make others more likely to obey his commands.
"Although it's not too flashy, in terms of ability, it's pretty good among Sequence 9s…" Although he already knew what the Arbiter's abilities were, Lin Ruo still silently came to a conclusion at this moment.
Among the many Sequence 9s, the Arbiter might not be the strongest, but at least it wasn't weak.
Lin Ruo thought of something else and said, "By the way, Medici, since you've already gotten rid of the interference from Solomon and Einhorn, when do you plan to go ashore… Ah, no, return to a normal human state?"
"Now." Medici slowly uttered a single word. His gaze fell on the life scepter in his hand, clearly intending to use it.
"Wait."
Just as the pale golden light was about to fill the space again, Lin Ruo suddenly raised his hand, revealing an unprecedentedly serious expression.
"What's wrong?" Medici looked at Lin Ruo. Seeing his serious expression, he also frowned, waiting for Lin Ruo's next words.
"I have no objection to you recovering your body here, but I have a very important question I want to ask you…" Lin Ruo's expression was solemn, which made Medici take him more seriously, suspecting that Lin Ruo really had some important question.
Then Medici heard Lin Ruo ask:
"Did you bring clothes?"
Medici: …
Medici's expression darkened.
Lin Ruo, pretending to be troubled, continued:
"Although I don't discriminate against the hobby of streaking, it ultimately has a bad influence and is indecent. If it gets out, it will also implicate my partner's reputation. If everyone thinks that Angel of Judgment and War Angel like streaking in the future, where will I put my face?"
Medici: …
Medici suddenly felt that the hand chop he had just delivered to Lin Ruo's head was too light.
He should have just punched him in the face.
"Cough…" Seeing Medici's fist clench, as if a friendly face-breaking punch would come at him the next second, Lin Ruo quickly coughed and said, "Just kidding."
"Don't worry, I just want to joke with you too." Medici sneered, walking step by step towards Lin Ruo, a friendly face-breaking punch already on the verge of being thrown.
"Brother, I was wrong, really wrong!" Lin Ruo strategically surrendered.
"Calling me brother is useless. Today, I'm going to beat the water out of your head." This time, Medici was unusually firm. Seeing the friendly face-breaking punch about to hit his face, Lin Ruo, knowing he couldn't dodge, hardened his heart and simply closed his eyes.
It's just getting punched once, he'll hit him back later.
#When I recover my strength, I must beat Little Red to the ground#
"Whoosh—"
The wind from the punch brushed past Lin Ruo's face, and then he heard a loud bang behind him.
"Boom—"
Lin Ruo cautiously opened his eyes and looked back, only to see that the trunk of the tree he had been leaning against had been directly broken from the point of the punch. The entire tree was now falling backward, clearly showing that Medici had used considerable force.
Ah, this!
Lin Ruo blinked, turned back, and saw Medici wrap the life scepter in a handkerchief and throw it into the metal box.
"Let's go." Medici picked up the box and turned around, then gestured, "Lend me this thing for a few days, I'll return it after I use it."
Alright!
Although it was impolite to lend out someone else's things without permission, Lin Ruo clearly couldn't refuse at this moment, so he simply nodded and then asked, "Are you going back to buy clothes?"
Medici paused, then gritted his teeth and said, "Don't force me to really beat you up."
Lin Ruo immediately shut up.
He actually didn't want to provoke Medici that much, he just couldn't help himself.
After all, it was too much fun!
#I just like to see others wanting to hit me but unable to#
After Lin Ruo went silent, Medici quickly disappeared from Lin Ruo's sight with the life scepter.
"Sigh, it seems I can't just provoke Medici randomly in the future, I need to be careful… He didn't hit people at first, why is he getting more and more violent recently? Is it because we're familiar? Or has Medici entered the state he was in when he used to interact with me?" Lin Ruo sighed with some melancholy. While lamenting Medici's "violence," he clearly had no intention of reflecting on his increasingly sharp tongue.
However, lamentations aside, since the main business was done, Lin Ruo naturally packed up his things and decided to head home.
A few minutes later, Lin Ruo, back in Backlund, after settling his extracted Conspirer characteristics and the Unshadowed Crucifix, came to Sherlock's Detective Agency, planning to scrounge for lunch.
However—
"So, you're not planning to cook today, but rather want to mooch a meal at the Quelaag Club, is that right?" Lin Ruo sat on the sofa, resting his chin on one hand, looking at Klein with a sharp gaze.
"Cough… Yes." Klein nodded somewhat awkwardly. Logically, he shouldn't have been awkward, but being looked at by Lin Ruo with such a sharp gaze, he inexplicably felt a little guilty and like he had made a mistake.
This was the so-called, as long as I am confident enough, I can make the other person the one who made a mistake (not).
"Quelaag Club, huh~" Lin Ruo didn't stare at Klein with those unnerving eyes for long. He then thought of a certain little snake that had been hiding from him, and couldn't help but snort, saying, "Then I'll go with you."
He would try one more time. If he still didn't encounter the little snake, then it really wasn't his business.
Later, if the other party cried and regretted restarting, it would be their own bad luck.
