Chapter 20 Eight Formations

The brand was rubbed on paper and handed over to the workshop owner and the young Baron Habs. The two big men circulated it to each other, both showing puzzled looks.

That’s right, humans in this world don’t understand gossip.

Truman knew this from Lilith. Maybe it was a higher level of extraordinary knowledge? Now that the owner of the workshop and the young Baron Habs don't know each other, we can confirm this.

"A trace of spatial characteristics...?" The workshop owner shook his head, "I have never seen such extraordinary 'technique'."

Truman has now understood that extraordinary 'characteristics' and extraordinary 'skills' are two sides of the same coin. When it comes to humans, it is 'skills', and when it escapes human control, it is 'characteristics'.

"The second-order 'scholar' does not possess space-related characteristics. It is only possible that Anton used 'spiritual description' and learned it from the outside world." The workshop owner added.

As a master of potions, the owner of the workshop has extraordinary knowledge and is the most knowledgeable among everyone present, so what she says can be the final conclusion.

"Judging by the battles we have experienced," the captain said, "The Defiler 'described' the Changling Essay that another of your students just completed."

This captain of the Red Gloves, Truman now knows his name is Pound. These Red Gloves are not affiliated with the Habsburgs. They are directly under the management of the Holy See and the Pope, and are enemies of evil.

"My other student is very good~" The workshop owner nodded in agreement.

Young Baron Habsburg's eyes flickered, probably remembering the vocabulary they used when discussing this student before.

"What is the content of this spiritual text?" Pound asked Truman, and then explained to Truman, "The content of the spiritual text is most likely related to the characteristics acquired by the polluter."

"Teacher, can spiritual texts be directly absorbed and used?" Truman asked.

"For the 'scholar' sequence, directly 'describing' spiritual text and activating its spirituality is equivalent to eating a portion of raw meat. Although it is uncomfortable, it can always be digested, but it will consume a large amount of 'shares'."

"Of course, for monsters without self-awareness, the upper limit of the 'share' belongs to God, which is equivalent to infinity, so it doesn't matter whether they digest it or not. They can keep eating until they burst themselves." The owner of the workshop said.

So, what exactly is the content of this 20-word elixir?

Under the gaze of everyone, Truman read out its content:

"The merits of the three-pointed kingdom are known as the Eight Formations. The stone in the river will not turn, but the regret will be lost and Wu will be swallowed up."

…

Before leaving Habsburg, Pound reminded Truman that the polluter might come looking for him.

Because they obtained ‘food’ from Truman, only the instinctive polluter is left, and it is very likely that he will ask Truman for more spiritual knowledge again.

"Those who have been contaminated by the God of Books have an extraordinary thirst for knowledge beyond all else, so you'd better be careful."

Truman suddenly felt the pressure, but he would soon be able to save enough money to be promoted to Extraordinary. In this translation work, he got the remuneration he deserved.

In the entire translation work, the one who suffered the greatest loss was undoubtedly the young Baron Habbs. Not only did he lose a key part of the promotion potion, but he also had to pay the translation fee for this part to the workshop owner.

After all, the translation work had been completed and the items were lost in Habsburg. When the owner of the workshop asked him for payment, he really had no reason to refuse.

100 gold pounds is not a big number.

But the lost spiritual text must be found.

A spiritual text with spatial characteristics, which means that his promotion potion will contain this ingredient, and it also means that once he is promoted to the 'Mastermind', he will gain such skills!

"I hope to see the body of this polluter as soon as possible and get back the potion formula I deserve, otherwise I will question the necessity of the red gloves to the Pope."

Faced with the pressure of the young Baron Habsburg, Captain Pound just said that they would try their best. In fact, the Red Gloves were directly under the Holy See, and the Habsburgs had no control over them.

It's Red Glove's job to hunt down polluters, and they'll do their best.

However, it is indeed not that easy to hunt down a polluter with ‘space’ characteristics.

Some 'tools' must be used, Pound thought.

At this moment, the huge Bagua graphic was still appearing in Truman's mind.

Is this an eight-array diagram?

Could it be Zhuge Liang?

In what form will this sage in earth history appear in this world?

Truman's thoughts were racing.

…

The carriage returns to the potion workshop.

What happened in Habsburg in the past two days made Truman and Lilith feel as if they were in another world, and planted a seed in their hearts.

Truman decided to be promoted to Extraordinary as soon as possible. He had already chosen the sequence, and all he needed was gold pounds.

Now the gold pound is also available.

On the carriage, the owner of the workshop opened the money bag he received from Baron Habbs, and took 20 gold pounds from it to Truman, and another 20 gold pounds to Lilith.

"Ahem...Teacher?" Truman coughed, and he saw little Habs gave the workshop owner a full 100 gold pounds.

"That's my operating cost, materials and labor, which one doesn't require money?" the owner of the workshop said, holding the money bag. Obviously, it was difficult for her to spit out the money she got.

He is indeed a capitalist.

Truman has nothing to say, he just works for others.

"Teacher, I want to buy the potion formula and materials for the 'Actor' sequence." Truman said.

"'Actor'... why? Isn't 'scholar' bad?" the workshop owner asked.

"'Scholar' is enough for me to buy potions, but I want the formula. In addition, I think 'Actor' is more suitable for me." Truman said.

"Okay, respect personal choice. The ritual of an 'actor' is more complicated and lengthy, and the conditions for fully activating its characteristics are also more stringent. Compared with these, the risk of promotion is very small. After all, everyone wears a mask, but not everyone wears a mask.

Individuals can control knowledge..."

Speaking of this, the owner of the workshop looked out the carriage window and sighed leisurely. Her mood was a bit low, but she cheered up in a flash and looked at Lilith.

"What do you have to say?"

Lilith has been holding back her words since just now.

"Sir, that extraordinary person named Xia Yan, what sequence is she?" Lilith asked cautiously.

"She is a 'craftsman', three red gloves, a 'craftsman', a 'lamplighter' and a 'herald'." said the owner of the workshop.

Xia Yan is a ‘craftsman’.

Li Guding is the ‘Lamplighter’.

Pound was the 'Herald'.

All three are sequences of extraordinary levels.

Therefore, the Red Gloves will respect the workshop master who has the legendary sequence.

"Sir, is it possible for me to become a 'craftsman'?" Lilith asked in a low voice.

"Of course it's possible~" the workshop owner smiled, "You are my apprentice and you can pay gold pounds, so there is no problem at all."

"That's great!" Lilith was obviously very interested in Xia Yan's 'skills'.

Later, Truman asked her what she was particularly interested in. Lilith said that Xia Yan could turn nails into steel, and of course she could turn 1 gold pound into 10 gold pounds.

This divergence angle was something Truman had not expected. After hearing this answer, he was stunned for a while.
