After talking with the angel of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, Leyton felt his heavy mood improve somewhat.
The other party represented the attitude of the God of Knowledge. Although he was only one of the chess pieces that the God of Knowledge had placed to fight against the apocalypse and the Ancient Sun God, as long as he had value, he could get help from the other party.
The title of Knowledge Moor made it hard not to suspect that the other party wanted to reclaim the Paragon and Hermit pathways to become the Demon of Knowledge.
Moreover, the Hermit pathway was basically under the control of the Knowledge Moor. As long as the seal in the Western Continent was lifted, He could reclaim it at any time.
"It seems that I am being used by the Knowledge Moor to deal with the Paragon, but the Paragon is already a True God. What can a Sequence 2 like me do at best?" Leyton didn't understand this.
"Forget it, I don't want to think about it. Tomorrow, I'll apply to the captain for the Sequence 7 Knowledge Keeper potion. Since I've already shown my cards to the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, then there's nothing to worry about." Not having to worry about the potion was probably Leyton's only good news at the moment.
"The Knowledge Moor must have other purposes for throwing me into the Reader pathway. It can't be a random choice, right?" Leyton pondered, but couldn't think of what purpose it served.
Unable to figure out the reason, Leyton stopped delving into the matter and familiarized himself with the physical enhancements of the Melee Scholar. It could only be said that he was finally not helpless now.
The Melee Scholar's improvement in physical fitness and fighting skills finally gave Leyton some decent means of fighting the enemy.
Bugs Bunny, who had been called to the balcony by Leyton, was digging in the soil of the flower pot with its paws. Leyton saw that the originally well-arranged potted plants had been moved, and some had even been replanted.
"What are you doing?" Leyton asked curiously.
"I found that the planting and placement of these plants are unreasonable, so I rearranged them," Bugs Bunny said, digging vigorously with its paws.
"This guy is adapting to the potion so quickly, he's spontaneously following the acting method." Leyton was shocked by this rabbit.
"I'll take you to buy some seeds and tools tomorrow, and then have the butler turn this balcony into your little garden. You can plant whatever you want on it," Leyton said casually, seeing that the rabbit was quite interested in planting plants.
Leyton planned to let the rabbit try acting on its own, after all, he didn't know anything about the Planter Pathway's acting rules.
"Wow~ Okay, I want to plant lots and lots of delicious grass," Bugs Bunny said excitedly.
Leyton restrained his urge to complain and said, "You can plant whatever you want, but besides your own food, you have to help me plant some herbal ingredients."
"No problem, leave it all to me," Bugs Bunny said confidently, patting its chest.
Seeing that Bugs Bunny was engrossed in digging and making holes, Leyton ignored it and returned to his room to prepare to make a few talismans using ritual magic.
However, Leyton didn't plan to pray to the God of Knowledge when making the talismans. Although he already knew the other party's attitude, Leyton was still wary of this All-Knowing One.
There was no other reason, just some resistance to the other party's omniscience. Every time he faced the angel of the Church of the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, Leyton felt that he was being seen through by the other party, his body and soul were seen through at a glance. Therefore, Leyton was always reluctant to pray to the God of Knowledge.
Leyton planned to try praying to the Hidden Sage. Anyway, the materials he prepared were very casual, and the effect of the talismans he made would depend on the Hidden Sage's mood.
Leyton quickly arranged the ritual, placed the materials and sacrifices for making the talismans separately, and then directly began to pray to the Hidden Sage.
"Sage who observes the world, Eyes that peer at the truth, incarnation of endless knowledge and numerology, unknowable Hidden Sage. I pray to you, I pray for the power of mystery!"
The Hidden Sage's honorific name was obtained by Leyton through divination after briefly connecting with the Sage characteristic in his body. The other party did not hide this information, nor did they interrupt or try to influence his divination.
Leyton felt that since the Hidden Sage had given him his honorific name, he must have agreed to him using it.
The prayer to the Hidden Sage was quickly answered, as if the other party had known when he would pray and had prepared to respond.
Under the influence of the power cast by the Hidden Sage, the materials Leyton prepared turned into black talismans, covered with dense and complex symbols. Just looking at them made Leyton feel dizzy.
Leyton took the talismans one by one and examined them carefully, then used divination to learn the effects of these talismans.
Unexpectedly, each of these talismans had a different effect, somewhat like the ability of the Sequence 6 Scrolls Professor of the Mystery Pryer, except that the other party implanted different abilities into the talismans.
The strength of these talismans was roughly at the level of Sequence 8 to Sequence 7. Perhaps it was because the materials Leyton used were very ordinary, but reaching this level was still a personal gift from the Hidden Sage.
These talismans had the effects of paralysis, poisoning, freezing, lightning strike, and mental shock, exactly five talismans, one effect each.
Regarding this result, Leyton could only say that the Hidden Sage was generous, and even a little thing he gave was not useless.
The success of making the talismans put Leyton in a good mood. Taking advantage of his good mood, Leyton planned to write a letter to his father, telling him about his idea of making a card game.
Originally, Leyton was still thinking about what to do. The production and sale of playing cards required a suitable factory and store. After seeing the letter his father sent today, Leyton realized that he could completely ask his father for help.
Leyton wrote down the rules of Da Vinci Code, which he had played with his team members before, and also described the rules of Werewolf Killing, as well as the card images he envisioned, in the letter.
Leyton felt that these two games were very likely to spread, and he could also accumulate some money to buy Beyonder items in the future. Relying on his pocket money, he estimated that he wouldn't be able to withstand Sequence 7 and beyond.
After writing down all his ideas, Leyton immediately went to find the butler and asked him to send the letter to his father.
"By the way, Uncle Sean, please have someone fill the balcony on the second floor with soil, I want to plant some plants there," Leyton said, thinking of the little garden he had promised Bugs Bunny.
"Young Master, do you want to plant a lot of plants?" the butler asked upon hearing this.
"Quite a lot, I guess," Leyton nodded.
Leyton felt that the acting of a Gardener should not be achieved by simply planting some flowers and plants.
"Young Master, I think the size of the balcony may not meet your needs. You can consider the manor in the suburbs, there is enough open space there," the butler gave a new suggestion.
"That's too far, it's not very convenient to go there from here," Leyton shook his head and rejected the butler's suggestion.
"Young Master, the house next to us has a large open-air balcony. Is it okay to renovate that balcony?" the butler gave a second option.
"It's okay, but I remember that the house next door hasn't had any plans to rent or sell recently, right?" Leyton was curious as to why the butler would make such a suggestion.
"No, Young Master, they have plans to sell the house, but because the master discussed it with the owner of the house in advance and planned to buy it, the news didn't spread," the butler explained.
"Huh? Why did Father suddenly want to buy the house next door?" Leyton really didn't understand.
"The master's plan is to expand our house. The master feels that when he and the madam stay here for a long time in the future, the house will be a bit small," the butler explained.
"Okay, when can the transaction be completed?" Leyton asked.
"It can be done in the next few days. If you want to renovate the balcony over there as soon as possible, Young Master, I will communicate with the owner of the house next door in the next two days," the butler said.
"Okay, then do it as soon as possible," Leyton nodded in agreement with the butler's suggestion.
