Chapter 31 'Artisan' Potions

After Truman was promoted to an 'actor' of the extraordinary first rank, 'share' was raised to 7 characters.

Not quite.

He also needs to perform more rituals to get more 'share'.

But it seems like a long way off being able to keep an avatar on Earth, so... take your time.

The current way for Truman to get his share is still only street performances.

He was always worried that performing more performances on the streets would attract Extraordinary 'hunters' who should exist.

Didn't the last performance attract the monster Anton?
Be cautious.

……

Having suffered a severe blow to his sanity from trying to leave an avatar on Earth, Truman rested for the day in his apartment.

That evening, he received a call.

The telephone was placed in the landlord's room. In this day and age, it was a rare and expensive home furnishing that only nobles and top wealthy businessmen could afford.

Having a telephone is also one of the reasons why the landlord dares to rent the apartment for 3 gold.

When Truman picked up the phone, the landlord was watching. Although the landlord said that if it was a private call that was inconvenient to answer, he could avoid it, but Truman didn't think it was necessary because Lilith was on the other end of the phone.

"Truman, is it convenient to visit you?"

"Of course it's convenient, you are my creditor." Truman said with a smile, his 'share' has recovered pretty well now.

Half an hour later, Truman and Lilith chatted in the reception room of the apartment.

Lilith marveled at the luxury of where Truman lived.

It looked even more magnificent than the workshop owner's residence.

The two sat on the sofa with gold embroidery, and the tea table in front of them was also inlaid with gold surrounds, which was the favorite decoration color of the Lundinian nobles.

Two cups of steaming black tea made Lilith feel uncomfortable. These are very expensive drinks. With her income, of course she can afford to drink them, but she is reluctant to part with them.

"This was originally a baron's residence, but it was rented out for unknown reasons. The tenant can use all the facilities here, but this is the first time I use the living room, and no one comes to visit me." Truman said.

"That's such a pity, if I had a living room like this, I would sleep here every day~" Lilith said with a smile, she was joking.

"Of course you can live here, after all I owe you money." Truman also joked.

"Don't say I owe you money, that's what you deserve, not what I deserve." Lilith said, "The reason why I'm here today has nothing to do with the money, of course, I'm here to ask you for advice." The choice of spiritual text in the potion formula."

"Have you got the 'artisan' formula?" Truman looked around, lowering his voice, "Is your 'share' enough to take the potion?"

Don't forget Anton... This is the sentence Truman didn't say.

Both of them have seen Anton lose control.

Potion is a double-edged sword, on the one hand, it can send people to the clouds, and on the other hand, it can send people to hell.

"Master Empress said that my 'share' is almost enough. Although I only have 4 characters, the sequence I choose does not have high requirements for 'share', because my disposition is in line with the God who controls this sequence. Tendency, very close." Lilith said.

"Is the word 'share' enough?" Truman thought it was weird, but the owner of the workshop should be right.

If human nature and God's inclination towards sequences are consistent, the requirement for 'share' can be lowered.

So Anton is not knowledgeable enough to be a 'scholar'?
What about Truman?Whether Truman's current mentality of being afraid of acting is too different from the tendency of the sequence.

"My lord Empress said that you are very insightful about the choice of spiritual texts, so I think I can ask you for advice." Lilith continued.

"Not necessarily, but if you tell me what the auxiliary materials in the 'artisan' formula represent, I can give you some advice." Truman said, "There is no need to mention the specific materials."

Lilith said: "The auxiliary materials of the 'artisan' formula include three things, one represents persistence, one represents ingenuity, and the other represents complex creation."

As long as he knows these three kinds of 'metaphors', when Truman has more knowledge about potions, he will be able to analyze what the three ingredients are.

Truman recalled the spiritual texts he saw in the No. [-] warehouse.

He is willing to help Lilith.

Lilith is the first person in this world to give him kindness.

Truman will always remember those kind eyes when Lilith tried to stop him from translating the continuation.

So, Truman recalled several spirit texts that should theoretically fit the 'craftsman' sequence.

He uttered knowledge worth a million dollars.

"My suggestion is that you can choose a word 'ink' for the core spiritual text, which is on the first row north of Warehouse No. 7."

"On the secondary second ring road, there is a 2-character continuous word that is very suitable for you. It is on the third row of shelves north of No. 7 warehouse. It is 'Luban'."

"As for the three-character spiritual text on the outer ring, choose 'The Creator', it's on the sixth row south of Warehouse No. 3."

After hearing Truman's choice, Lilith blinked.

She said: "You and the Empress have the same choice for the third ring spirit text, but there is a big difference between the first ring and the second ring."

Truman smiled and asked: "The teacher must have told you that there is not much difference in the choice of the extraordinary first-order potion, but I think that every choice is very important, because it cannot be regretted, so I am willing Do you listen to me?"

Lilith stared into Truman's eyes as before. This girl who was a little thin due to malnutrition had a pair of beautiful eyes that could be called the "windows of the soul". When you talk, you can often see whether the other party is sincere.

Like so many times before, Lilith could see trustworthy warmth in Truman's eyes.

"I would like to believe you, sir." Lilith said, "This is my choice, and I will never regret it no matter what."

Lilith's belief also made Truman feel warm.

This warmth born of trust is what Truman felt on earth in the big city where he worked, the lonely and indifferent girlfriend who fought against the big city with him.

At that time, what Truman experienced was not only love, but also companionship.

'Let you not feel inferior and lonely because you are alone in the crowded Guomao subway station when you face the crowds coming and going in a hurry'.

Next, the two chatted intimately about the current situation of the potion workshop. Truman knew that the potion workshop had been 'robbed' and that the owner of the workshop had mailed nearly ten thousand gold pounds to the Holy See. bill.

Also chatted about the red gloves.

"Ms. Xia Yan pays special attention to you." Lilith said, "She asked about your recent situation several times."

"The Red Gloves stand on a more benevolent side. There should be nothing wrong with them. They may want to know about Anton through me." Truman said that the Red Gloves had been protecting him and Lilith during the Habsburg battle. I am grateful.

When mentioning Anton, Lilith suddenly said: "We won't lose control because of extraordinary power, right?"

"I hope not." Truman was indeed having this hidden worry.
