Chapter 806: Asking for advice

"He might not be called this name in Morora. I just knew him before, and met him again yesterday when I came to this tavern to duel with the boss. His characteristic is that his hair is dyed with a layer of red. Hehe, in Morora, if your hair is red, no matter what kind of red it is, it's not easy to provoke..." Lu Mian described Albus Medici's appearance characteristics in detail.

The cook Lies nodded:

"I have remembered."

"Really remembered? Do you need me to draw sketches of these people for you to see?" Lu Mian asked unusually sincerely.

He was not only asking Lies, but also Zhu Li, who was walking down the stairs again, but her footsteps were getting slower and slower.

He wanted to find something for this "Witch" to do, hoping she would notice Wanake and Albus and others as soon as possible, letting trouble collide with trouble, to see who is the biggest trouble.

Lies shook his head slowly:

"No need, just remember them as different ingredients, and the characteristics will be very distinct."

"Different ingredients, turkey?" Lu Mian pieced Albus Medici's image together with a turkey in his mind, and then laughed out loud.

He then withdrew 200 Sassen gold for Lies, which was the cost for replenishing the tavern's meat ingredients and alcoholic beverages.

After turning and leaving the kitchen, Lu Mian "just happened" to see Zhu Li finish the stairs and step onto the ground.

This "Witch" had changed into a very fresh outfit she got from somewhere, a white lady's shirt paired with a brown-green long skirt that reached her ankles, setting off her gentle and beautiful qualities to the fullest.

Lu Mian suddenly associated it with the sound he heard last night, which formed a sharp contrast with Zhu Li's current temperament and state.

His mouth suddenly felt a bit dry.

Damn, this "Witch" is secretly using "Charm" on me! It's not that Lu Mian wouldn't have a reaction, but such a big reaction is definitely a problem for an "Ascetic."

He looked at Zhu Li and raised his eyebrows:

"Do you still remember the second rule of the tavern?"

Compared to yesterday, Zhu Li's face seemed to have radiance flowing, and her whole person bloomed with joy from the inside out.

This made Lu Mian couldn't help but want to rub his forehead:

Sister, are you really not afraid of exposing the fact that Celeste came to find you last night by acting so happy?

Although you don't know that I watched you rush toward Celeste yesterday and suffered a huge blow...

Zhu Li pursed her lips and smiled gently:

"Cannot harass you, boss."

"You were just 'charming' me." Lu Mian pointed out the problem plainly.

Zhu Li immediately shrank her body and asked fearfully:

"You, you want to punish me how?"

She acted trembling, but her eyes were full of smiles, just like flirting with Lu Mian.

Lu Mian sighed half-sincerely and half-deliberately:

"First offense, can be forgiven.

"But don't have a next time, otherwise..."

He didn't finish his words, seeming to be creating a kind of fear originating from the unknown.

"Yes, boss!" Zhu Li bloomed with a smile.

Her eyes turned, and she pointed to the door:

"Boss, the tavern won't open until noon. Can I go out for a turn now?"

"Yes." Lu Mian teased, "Planning to satisfy your collecting habit again? Do you have the habit of exercising in the morning?"

"No." Zhu Li shook her head gently, "I want to know more about this city."

After watching her walk out of the tavern, Lu Mian immediately "transmitted" to the front, transformed into a shadow creature, and prepared to track.

However, Zhu Li disappeared.

"Invisibility," then wiped out the traces, did anti-divination? Lu Mian left the shadow and frowned slightly.

This shows that what Zhu Li is going to do this morning is quite important, and she doesn't want to be known by anyone!

Of course, this is also because she finally saw her lover, her heart was comforted, her whole state improved, and she became professional enough, no longer as crazy as last night, with emotions nearly out of control.

This is the normal performance that a Sequence 5 "Pain Witch" should have.

Lu Mian was not too disappointed, at least Zhu Li already knew about the existence of Wanake and Albus Medici.

He walked along the nearest road toward the cemetery, but after arriving at the destination, he didn't dig anyone's grave or sneak into the underground, but turned directly into that library-like Knowledge Church.

He went out today, tracking Zhu Li was just by the way, the main purpose was to visit the Morora Archbishop Heraberg.

——The title of Morora Archbishop was given to Heraberg by Lu Mian, after all, this puppet-shaped Knowledge Church cleric claimed to be in charge of all theological affairs in Morora.

Lu Mian felt that since the Knowledge Church had escorted him all the way into Morora, and even didn't confiscate his magical items, then compared to circuitous probing, asking directly about the underground mausoleum might have miraculous effects.

This is also a probe. Lu Mian wanted to see if the seal data of "0-01" was only given to him, or "distributed" to all qualified people who met the conditions. Did the Knowledge Church only place heavy bets on him, or did they put eggs in multiple baskets?

In the glorious and sacred church, Lu Mian found Heraberg, who had graying hair, gentle eyes, and was wearing a plain white robe inlaid with brass threads, among the brass bookshelves and stained glass windows.

This Knowledge Church cleric was standing in front of a brass bookshelf, holding a thick book in his hand, reading quietly.

"Archbishop." Lu Mian called out tentatively.

Heraberg raised his head and asked warmly:

"What doubts do you have?"

Lu Mian weighed his words and said:

"If I want to enter the underground part of the cemetery and find something, what do I need to do to avoid danger?"

Heraberg smiled.

He pointed to the brass bookshelf next to him:

"This one, this one, this one... You take these books back and finish reading them first, and master them well."

Lu Mian followed the cleric's finger and looked over, reading the names of the corresponding books in his heart:

"Morora Resident Code"

"Production and Maintenance of Puppets"

"Construction Examples of Underground Mausoleums"

"Principles of Sealing"......

This... Why would a "Hunter" like me read these books? I am not of the "Reader" pathway, and I can't intuitively show that knowledge is power... Does it mean that by absorbing the knowledge in these books, I can roughly figure out the layout of the underground mausoleum, master the rules of the seal's operation, and how to leave a brand on "0-01"? Lu Mian withdrew his gaze thoughtfully.

Heraberg continued:

"After you finish reading these books, come and do these test papers. You must get full marks for each one."

Lu Mian looked at the test papers filling the entire shelf, his forehead twitched instinctively, and some unpleasant memories were awakened.

He kept his expression unchanged and asked for confirmation:

"After finishing the books and the test papers, and passing, can I avoid the various dangers in the underground part of the cemetery?"

Heraberg raised his right hand again, pointing to another brass bookshelf:

"This one, this one, this one. Once you have mastered the knowledge on these three bookshelves, it will be about enough."

Three bookshelves? Lu Mian's mouth twitched slightly.

That must be two or three hundred books, and thousands of test papers, right?

Heraberg smiled and sighed:

"Remember, knowledge is power, knowledge is wealth. The answers to all the questions you want to know are in knowledge."

Lu Mian's expression changed a few times, and he gritted his teeth:

"I'll read these few first."

He pulled the books Heraberg pointed out first from the brass bookshelf.

Heraberg nodded with satisfaction:

"A 'Hunter' who knows how to learn and pursues knowledge is the most powerful 'Hunter'.

"I don't know how many years it has been, finally another 'Hunter' has come to ask me for advice, willing to read designated books patiently. The other red-haired and coarse-haired ones don't even want to step into the door of the Temple of Knowledge, let alone approach these bookshelves."

It was Aurora who laid a good foundation, letting me develop the habit of reading since childhood... Lu Mian boasted in his heart, suddenly feeling a bit sentimental.

He stuffed the books in his hand into the "Traveler's Bag," said goodbye to Heraberg, and walked toward the door of the Knowledge Church.

On the way, he saw a familiar figure.

That was Gei, who was exiled to Morora with him.

Gei, who looked gentle, had changed into thick cotton clothes and was standing in front of a brass bookshelf, reading the book in his hand intently with the sunlight shining in from the stained glass window next to him.

Lu Mian pondered for a few seconds, walked over, and said with a smile:

"What a coincidence, why did you run to the church to read?"

Gei smiled slightly:

"Didn't I tell you yesterday that I regret not having mastered enough knowledge? Now, with such a huge library, how can I give up the opportunity to learn?

"What are you doing in the church?"

"Asking if it's too late to convert to the 'God of Knowledge and Wisdom'." Lu Mian answered Gei's question with a joke, then changed the subject, "Have you found a job?"

"Not yet." Gei shook his head, "I don't want to go to farms or factories to be a slave to some exiles. I plan to study for a while. It just so happens that I had good luck yesterday and earned a sum, so I don't have to worry about going hungry."

Lu Mian chatted with Gei for a few words, waved goodbye to this serial killer who had some secrets, and returned to the "Carnivore" tavern all the way. He found a seat by the window, took out the borrowed books, and read them in the most comfortable posture.

The sunlight in Morora was sometimes bright and sometimes obscured by storms, but this did not affect Lu Mian's reading, because he brought his own bright white fireball desk lamp.

By noon, Zhu Li returned from the outside, her footsteps light, her face smiling, exuding strong charm, which made the meat cook Lies couldn't help but look a few more times.

Zhu Li swept a glance at Lu Mian and asked curiously:

"Are you reading?"

"Nothing to do anyway." Lu Mian answered casually.

Zhu Li was not interested in books, withdrew her gaze, and walked upstairs, preparing to look for female attendant clothes in the room.

Lu Mian "tsk"ed silently:

Really, knowledge is power, knowledge is wealth, she is not even curious about what book I am reading...

At this time, Lies walked to his side and said:

"Boss, lunch is ready."

Lu Mian nodded, put away the books, and stood up.

He thought for a while and said to Lies thoughtfully:

"You find a piece of red cloth and hang it at the door."
