Aurora Society, as a secret organization with a network spread across various countries, has 5 Saints and 22 Messengers of God, all of whom use a code name consisting of an alphabet + honorific.
For example, "Mr. A", "Mr. Z", "Ms. D", and so on.
Basically, each Messenger of God is at least a Sequence 7 Beyonder, each responsible for the overall planning and personnel management of Aurora Society affairs in an important area, such as Mr. A being responsible for Backlund, Mr. Z being stationed in Enmat Port, and so on.
These Messengers of God are fanatics of the "True Creator", influenced by this Fallen Evil God, causing chaos everywhere, and leading hostile actions against the Orthodox Church.
Considering the importance of Ahoa County, Roger has always suspected that there is a Messenger of God responsible for it locally, and today his guess was verified.
“I just don't know what relationship this one has with Mr. Z? And what role did he play in the True Creator's Son of God descending event?”
Although he couldn't figure it out for a while, Roger was very clear that the other party was extending an Olive Branch.
He didn't know the market price of Elf Dark Leaf, but considering its Grade, Roger judged that it should be worth at least 30 to 50 Gold Pound.
However, Mr. C only let him pay a symbolic 10 Gold Pound, which, as anyone could guess, was a favor.
Although this meaning was very obvious, he didn't reject it either. Elf Dark Leaf was an Auxiliary Material he urgently needed, and it was directly related to the Advancement of Sequence 8.
He unhesitatingly took out 10 Gold Pound and handed it to the Attendant.
The Attendant took the money and took out another piece of paper, handing it to Roger.
“Sir, this is the detailed information of all the goods for sale registered in this gathering. You can see if there are any that meet your own needs.”
Roger took the paper and looked at it. Most of them were the things mentioned on the blackboard, but the descriptions were more detailed.
In addition, there were some goods not registered on the blackboard, which seemed to come from channels outside the venue.
Hynes Vincent also received a piece of paper like this, but Roger looked up and saw that not everyone had this treatment.
“Could it be a special treatment for internal Members or personnel to be assessed by Aurora Society?”
Roger secretly guessed, quickly browsing the content of this paper.
There was nothing suitable in both "Materials" and "Formula", so he turned to the "Magical Item" column.
“‘Malice Pendant’, can obtain the ability to use three Demon-type Magic according to the wearer. Selling price: 330 Gold Pound.
“Side effect: Every time you use Magic, the wearer will lose some conscience and compassion. This loss is irreversible. If the user does not maintain Temperance, they will eventually be completely eroded by evil desires and become a cruel and ruthless person.”
“‘Spirit Board’, can reveal the Spirit Body around to answer their own questions, or pay a specific Reward to hire them to complete tasks within their capabilities. Selling price: 620 Gold Pound.
“Side effect: The single use time cannot exceed 10 minutes. After use, it must be sealed with a silver or Gold Container with a thickness of at least 5 centimeters, otherwise it will Subtly Influence the contact person, causing their Spirit to become abnormal and unable to distinguish between the living and the Dead.”
……
In addition to Magical Item with specific uses, there are also some Amulet or accessories that can improve luck, etc., and Roger was a little dazzled for a while.
“……‘Scholar's Ring’, wearing it can briefly obtain the ‘Silent Focus’ Demeanor, reduce unnecessary emotional activities and feelings, improve Memory, learning Ability, and the power of Ritual Magic.
“Side effect: The single wearing time cannot exceed 1 hour, otherwise, within 12 to 24 hours, it will be unable to produce normal emotions and even touch... Selling price: 400 Gold Pound?”
Roger gently stroked his chin, revealing an interested expression.
“Could it be a Magical Item condensed from the Extraordinary Characteristic of the ‘Reader’ Pathway? Very likely.”
Compared to other Magical Item, the side effect of the "Scholar's Ring" can be almost ignored, but in stark contrast, this thing is very suitable for Roger at the moment.
Although the "Attention Seeker" Potion gave him the Ability to use Ritual Magic, it also came with a "reduce the probability of getting a response" Debuff.
Although not all Ritual Magic can get a response, the Beyonder of the Path of Gheros, known as the "Big Clock", seems to emit a certain vibration at the Astral Spirit Body level that makes the Gods feel displeased, which further reduced the already not-so-high success rate of Ritual Magic.
After reading the description of the "Scholar's Ring", Roger immediately noticed that the Silent Focus characteristic of this thing would act on both the wearer's Mind Body and Astral Spirit Body, which is of great benefit to him in reducing Inner "Noise" and improving his own shortcomings in performing Ritual Magic.
After all, Roger still needs to seek the Assistance of "The Fool" and other Gods, and he doesn't want to disturb or even annoy these existences because of his own characteristics...
In addition, this "Scholar's Ring" has an additional effect.
That is, it can help the not-so-smart Bandit to play the role of "Apprentice", allowing it to Digest Potion as soon as possible and better assist in his work.
“What, have you taken a liking to something?”
Hynes Vincent noticed the change in Roger's Demeanor, and he asked with a smile.
“Yes, Mr. Vincent, I want this ‘Scholar's Ring’.” Roger did not hide it.
In order to prevent someone from getting ahead, he immediately called the Attendant and indicated that he was willing to pay the corresponding price to purchase this Magical Item.
Seeing that his 450 Gold Pound, which he hadn't even warmed up, was left with only 40 Gold Pound, Roger couldn't help but feel a little heartache.
But considering it in depth, these are valuable investments, and he no longer struggled.
Then came a long wait. After about forty minutes, the Attendant finally stood up and clapped his hands gently:
“Esteemed guests, the time for this gathering has arrived. Please wait for further notice for the time of the next gathering.”
The originally lively discussion immediately stopped abruptly. Some participants were obviously a little unsatisfied, but it seemed that they had to stop temporarily due to the pressure from Mr. C, and then talk about it later.
Roger also got a simple silver ring and a silver translucent leaf with Deep Red veins.
He put the ring on his hand and immediately felt that his Mind seemed to fall into a tranquil lake. Not only did his observation Ability and Thinking Ability improve a lot, but even a kind of restlessness that had been faintly present in his own Depths had subsided a lot.
“The pain has also decreased.”
Roger pinched his thigh hard, but felt almost nothing.
This made him very satisfied, and he took off the ring and put it in his pocket.
“The Beyonder gathering I host has strict requirements for the Authenticity of goods. Anyone who dares to deceive others here will be severely punished.”
While Roger was thinking, he suddenly felt a very pleasant, likable male voice coming from behind him.
He turned around curiously and found that the person wearing the goat mask had appeared behind him at some point.
