Chapter 10 - Chapter 10: How to Obtain the Next Potion

This is undoubtedly very dangerous, Lin Ruo knew.

But it wasn't impossible!

Capin himself was probably not a Beyonder, although he had official Beyonders from the royal family protecting him, most of them were mid to low sequence Beyonders.

According to the original work, the highest of these Beyonders was probably only Sequence 6, with some extraordinary items that could somewhat match Sequence 5. However, Lin Ruo had a one-minute demigod state. With the difference between a demigod and a non-demigod, and by using the secret state provided by the Secret Badge to infiltrate Capin's mansion and catch them off guard, the chances of a successful hunt were high.

Even without considering the difference between a demigod and a non-demigod, just having a plan when the enemy doesn't is enough to give Lin Ruo a huge advantage—the difference between being prepared and unprepared in the mysterious world is significant.

Moreover, even if something unexpected happened, he could use the Traveler's ability to escape, and the Secret Badge ensured that he wouldn't be tracked by extraordinary means before or after the action.

Hunting Capin had many benefits. First, it allowed him to act as a Hunter and digest the potion. Second, it avenged the original owner and fulfilled Lin Ruo's own intentions. Third, exposing Capin's activities early could make the church suspicious of the royal family's conspiracy. Fourth, it could involve the Storm Church in dealing with Ince, that scoundrel…

Lin Ruo's eyes narrowed as his thoughts raced. Suddenly, he clenched the Secret Badge in his hand and stretched lazily, "Ugh, I almost wish Capin was a Beyonder… that would make digesting the potion faster!"

He chuckled and began to refine his hunting plan in his mind.

After initially settling these matters, Lin Ruo started thinking about how to obtain the subsequent potion formulas for the Hunter pathway.

Just as the main activity area for Seer pathway Beyonders wasn't in Ruen, the main activity area for Hunter pathway Beyonders wasn't in Ruen either, but in the Intis Republic and the Feysac Empire.

However, this didn't mean it was difficult to find subsequent potion formulas for the Hunter pathway in Ruen. After all, in the underground of Backlund, there was still the three-in-one hotpot evil spirit and a Hunter pathway desecration card, the "Red Priest" card. According to the law of extraordinary aggregation in the mysterious world, these two items would continuously attract Hunter pathway Beyonders.

If Lin Ruo wanted to obtain the subsequent potion formulas for the Hunter pathway, the most ideal and dangerous method would naturally be to get the Red Priest card, which could almost gather all the subsequent potion formulas at once.

But the Red Priest card was in the hands of the three-in-one hotpot evil spirit. Although they were humorously called the comedy group in the original work, they were not easy to deal with. Moreover, from the latter part of the mysterious plot, it could be seen that Adam, who betrayed Medici, had always been watching there. Snatching food from the tiger's mouth was very difficult, not much easier than tearing up the 008 script, and even more difficult for Lin Ruo.

However, difficult didn't mean impossible. After all, the Red Priest card wasn't very important to Medici, and Medici, who hadn't broken free from his restraints, was undoubtedly at his weakest…

Lin Ruo's eyes flashed, and he finally closed them and took a long breath, "I can't be greedy. The hotpot evil spirit killed so many descendants of the Tudor family, mid to low sequence Beyonders going there would just be cannon fodder… I need to wait, wait a bit longer."

Until he understood the extraordinary field of this world better and found suitable helpers.

Lin Ruo didn't plan to give up on the Red Priest card but wouldn't act rashly. After all, no matter how weak the hotpot evil spirit was now, dealing with someone below a demigod was still easy. Even if Lin Ruo's fallacy could give him a minute of demigod time, he didn't think he could handle the opponent in that minute.

Moreover, the current state of the hotpot evil spirit made it difficult for Lin Ruo to use [Truth] to arrange anything. After all, Lin Ruo's goal was to get the Red Priest card, not to eliminate the hotpot evil spirit. So he couldn't report the opponent, and as for luring unofficial demigods to deal with the hotpot evil spirit and then reaping the benefits—that was courting death!

The unofficial demigods active in Backlund were mostly from the Aurora Order, the Witch Sect, or related to the Psychological Alchemy Society. If these people saw Medici, they wouldn't fight each other; they would probably help him break free.

The remaining demigods were either in poor condition and rarely moved or, like the fool from the Spirit Religion who only wanted to revive the God of Death, probably uninterested in Medici. Guiding these demigods to find Medici was extremely difficult, and even if successful, reaping the benefits afterward wouldn't be easy. They might even be treated as cannon fodder by the demigods.

Lin Ruo was happy to deal with Ince, that scoundrel, because it was his area of expertise. But he wouldn't try to snatch the Red Priest card when the chances of failure were high.

"Let's digest the potion first… there are other ways to obtain mid to low sequence potion formulas for the Hunter pathway, no rush." Recalling other characters in the original work who might have the Red Priest mid to low sequence formulas, Lin Ruo slowly exhaled and began thinking about other matters.

Avenging the original owner could be done step by step. First, deal with Capin, then gather information on the enemies who destroyed the original owner's family, make plans based on the situation, and proceed step by step.

Compared to that, since he now had a body, some of his original plans needed to be adjusted. However, Lin Ruo could feel that his connection with Klein still existed, and he had a vague feeling that his spirit would be pulled to Klein's side again.

This meant he would likely have to operate on two fronts. Lin Ruo had some ideas about this. He planned to focus on digesting potions, advancing sequences, and improving his strength when his spirit returned to his body. When his spirit was with Klein, he would act as Klein's "grandfather," happily nurturing the Lord of Mysteries.

As for Ince, that scoundrel, he would work on both fronts to eliminate him as quickly as possible—Lin Ruo understood the abilities of the Fate pathway, so he knew the best way to deal with someone like Ince, who held 008, was not to give him a chance to act and to kick him out as quickly as possible.

The longer it dragged on, the more variables there would be!

"Well, now that I've received the memories, I can save the fallacy energy related to languages." Lin Ruo muttered to himself and canceled the fallacies related to Ruen Common Language and Hermes Language that he had been maintaining. These two languages were ones Roldi Friel had learned from a young age, so after accepting his memories, Lin Ruo naturally knew them.

After canceling the two fallacies, Lin Ruo suddenly yawned.

It might be the effect of the resurrection, but Lin Ruo felt that his body was very tired. Coincidentally, as someone who had almost drained himself experimenting with [Fallacy] before, Lin Ruo's soul was also very tired. Under this double fatigue, Lin Ruo urgently needed to rest to recover, but he had been holding on because he had things to do.

Now that he had sorted out what needed to be sorted and had a preliminary plan for what to do next, Lin Ruo didn't plan to hold on any longer. He leaned his head back on the recliner and closed his eyes.

Well, hopefully, he wouldn't find himself in Tingen when he fell asleep…

After all, he was really tired!

Thinking vaguely like this, Lin Ruo's consciousness fell into sleep.
