I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha

The Holy Blood Warlocks all knew some of these secrets, the kind that were scandalous rumors. But they had always dismissed them as propaganda spread by enemy forces.

Today, they discovered that these things seemed to be true.

Because Vera, from her perspective as a party involved, revealed the details of the scandal.

Many details should only be known to Lady Wendysha herself!

But this lady obviously had no shame, because she had secretly told these things to her sister, Vera.

Apparently, Wendysha herself didn't care too much about these things.

But 'Miss Wendysha' was extremely upset after hearing it. It seems she cares a lot about shame.

She stopped resisting, so Belinda helped Roland imprison her—Lady Belinda seemed to know all of Wendysha's weaknesses.

After the Holy Blood confidants heard and saw these things, they began to doubt the identity of 'Miss Wendysha'.

First of all, Baron Blackwood controlled her like a puppet! This is very strange!

Secondly, her moral bottom line is too high.

Finally, she is too easily swayed by emotions and is a bit capricious.

Regardless of whether 'Miss Wendysha' is the Countess or not, the Holy Blood Warlocks are unwilling to follow a mistress who can be controlled like this.

Belinda is obviously a more suitable mistress.

She is never swayed by emotions, and is extremely calm and rational.

Miss Wendysha may have reverted to her youth after being reborn, like a novice.

Compared to the new mistress, 'Lady Belinda', she is not experienced enough.

The Holy Blood Warlocks are about to go south and will spend a very difficult period there. They need such a new mistress.

As for the old mistress… just as Lady Belinda said just now, she will stay with Baron Blackwood, because Princess Twilight needs a hostage to feel more at ease, doesn't she?

The shameless Holy Blood Warlocks abandoned their old master in this way, and in front of the old master, they pledged allegiance to the new master.

Roland stuffed a rag into Miss Wendysha's mouth.

Just now, Lady Belinda told Roland some of Wendysha's weaknesses. Roland used Amber Essence to control Wendysha's body, so she could no longer mobilize her magic power and became an ordinary young girl.

Miss Wendysha's resentful eyes made Roland feel a little uncomfortable, so he covered her eyes as well.

Clapping his hands, Roland said to Lady Belinda, "Madam, you told me Wendysha's secrets. Aren't you afraid that one day I will use these secrets against her?"

Lady Belinda smiled meaningfully: "First of all, you have to be able to enslave the real Countess Wendysha into this state. Secondly, you don't need to use such a method to make her obedient."

Lady Belinda moved closer to Roland, her warm breath blowing on his ear: "She is easily satisfied, as long as you are willing to feed her, she will be very happy to be your little pet."

Roland hurriedly took a step back.

But Lady Belinda leaned in again.

She looked at her subordinates in the distance with a smile and said, "How are my daughters? Very beautiful, aren't they? Look, they often secretly peek at you. Baron, we are all your people. We will do whatever you ask us to do."

Roland's face suddenly became very ugly.

Roland discovered a very serious problem.

There are not many living people on the ship, and even fewer living people with enough vitality. It can even be said that there is only one.

Every day that passes, this person becomes more dangerous!

If they don't encounter other ships or other people within seven days...

I'm afraid I'll have to pull out 'Foxfire (Roland's strong horse)' to attract firepower for myself!

Besides, I have to contact Senior Sister and tell her about the situation here.

Roland said, "Madam, I can still barely control this ship. Dagmar should have left some beacons on the Sea of Mist before. Please take people to find them as soon as possible. Let's not stay on the Sea of Mist for too long."

Lady Belinda did not answer. She looked at Roland with a smile and said, "Baron Roland, Countess Wendysha is dead. Those secrets I told you today are useless to her now.

But these secrets can be used to deal with this Wendysha.

You should be able to manage her, right? I don't want any Wendysha to pop up and steal my man."

Roland said seriously: "Lady Belinda, please believe me, compared to you, I don't want her to use the name 'Wendysha' to cause trouble even more. The South only needs one Belinda and one Vera. They will help the Princess gather the Holy Blood Warlocks and study the Path of Truth together."

Belinda nodded, feeling very emotional in her heart.

They fought each other, but in the end, they became colleagues who had to cooperate closely.

Speaking of which, although Bloodrot Fortress was destroyed, the Bloodrot Warlocks completely got rid of Baron Bloodrot.

And got rid of the King of a Thousand Eyes.

This is the best path. It is better than what I originally imagined, and even the price is lower than originally expected.

Belinda waved her hand, called Vera over, and asked Vera to take people to the cabin to find the beacons.

Belinda believed that Dagmar had not completed the work before, and she needed to take people to finish the job.

After completing the matrix of the beacons, this ship can sail freely on the Sea of Mist.

Before leaving, she said these words to Roland: "Baron Roland, I have always gotten along well with Princess Catherine. I will definitely try to please her in the future, and maybe become close friends."

Saying that, she gave Roland a meaningful look, and then left.

Roland's face was a little ugly.

Belinda had a handle on Roland.

Roland couldn't explain this matter clearly, because he was the one who did the bad thing.

Now, if I flirt with my female colleague, and the female colleague reports to the female boss later, I'm dead.

'Damn little Roland! Damn me! '

Roland was extremely worried. He felt that he had to find a way to reduce the side effects of summoning little Rolands.

Next, Roland led the nuns to sort out the various spoils of war and clean up the ship.

After completing the cleaning of the spoils, Roland had already arrived in the bottom cabin at this time.

The big ship suddenly shook violently a few times, and Roland hurriedly led people to the deck.

Looking around, several huge tentacles were wrapped around the deck, seemingly a huge sea monster—it was a giant octopus!

There had been a battle here before, and it should have been attracted by magic.

This giant octopus doesn't seem to be much smaller than the ship, and it is struggling violently.

The 'Spider' was trembling excitedly. You could see that the ship's strange shadow was frantically wrapping around the sea monster's shadow with slender claws.

Roland used magic to investigate and found that this was actually a Level 5 sea monster!

A Level 5 sea monster is equivalent to a Tier 1 mid-stage wizard in terms of realm, but their vitality is very terrifying. If you let wizards deal with them, you can't deal with them without ten or eight of them!

Not to mention on this sea.

Their power at sea is very terrifying, and their magic power is also very powerful.

Generally speaking, sea monsters above level 5 can threaten magic ships. If there are no Tier 2 wizards or magic cannons on board, then encountering a level 6 sea beast will be a terrible disaster.

The Spider seems to be very good at dealing with sea monsters!

This giant sea monster didn't even know what this ship was. It didn't understand what was going on, and it felt that it couldn't move—it hadn't even realized that its shadow was bound by the spider web.

"Tonight's dinner can be fresh!"

Roland excitedly led the seven servants to help the Spider solve it.

The Spider ate a part of the 'shadow', but the giant octopus's corpse still had a shadow. Roland checked the corpse and found that most of the soul on the corpse had been swallowed by something.

He transcended the remaining souls.

That night, Roland and the others ate grilled octopus in the dining room behind the captain's cabin.

The nuns don't eat earthly food, but they also sat at the table.

After the meal, some of the nuns went to continue cleaning the ship, and some went to the dimensional bag to take care of Foxfire.

Roland deliberately lingered at the table until the end. After everyone left, he ran to the place where the nuns had been sitting and checked their plates.

After reading it, Roland showed an extremely strange expression.

Those foods turned into colorful stones. They were so lifelike that they looked like food.

After observing for a while, Roland discovered that this was a kind of stone without a shadow.

He remembered something described in the book—Styx Stone.

According to legend, things washed by the Styx will turn into these shadowless Styx things.

The nuns just ate the shadows of the food, and the food turned into Styx stones.

So, when the nuns eat, is it considered a ritual of transcendence?

Roland's face was a little ugly, and he thought to himself: 'Too unlucky, I can't eat with them often in the future. '

Landlord Roland decided that in the future, when he eats, he will have the maids watch by the side.

When he finishes eating, let the maids come to the table.

Well, the airs of this lord are about to be put on.

Roland thought to himself: 'Let's do it this way, the servants have been a little too spoiled recently, and they always roll their eyes at me. We have to set some rules. '

After washing his hands, Roland, the young master, did not clean up the restaurant, waiting for the maids to come back and let them clean it.

He came to the captain's private office.

Rather than calling it a 'private office', it is better to call it a study.

Lord Dagma was a learned wizard. His study was large, with walls lined with various books and many bizarre tools in the middle.

There were magical tools, theological tools, and nautical tools.

Before long, Roland used magic to find some literature related to various sea monsters on the bookshelf.

Among them was a book called 'Deep Sea Elixirs and the Art of Immortality,' which aroused Roland's great interest.

After flipping through it, Roland's eyes lit up.

The newest novels are first published at Six/9/Book/Bar!

Immortality has always been the secret sought after by countless great adventurers. But this is the domain of God, and only God holds the art of immortality.

This 'Deep Sea Elixirs and the Art of Immortality' of the Hydra cannot truly grant immortality, but it can prevent aging.

After reading it, Roland muttered, "These pirates are secretly engaging in such shady dealings with the Holy See."

Judging from some of Dagma's documents, they often provided various deep-sea elixirs to various churches.

These elixirs were all good things that condensed the essence of life.

Therefore, in essence, many old bishops were greedily sucking life force.

The priests in the South are different from the wizards. As the wizards' realm improves, they will gradually step into eternity.

But even if the priests reach the terrifying strength of archbishops or even the Pope, becoming the supreme spokespersons of God, they are still mortals.

Most people become feeble in their seventies or eighties.

Those who are reluctant to give up the power in their hands have an unimaginable desire for immortality.

They also have an extraordinary pursuit of a vibrant body.

As a wizard, Roland despised the behavior of these useless priests.

He decided to study this 'Deep Sea Elixirs and the Art of Immortality' carefully.

Roland now read books very, very quickly, and he flipped through this thick book in a few minutes.

Closing the book, Roland said with a solemn expression: "This sea is simply an endless treasure trove!

If I had some time and could take the 'Spider' to capture sea monsters everywhere, accumulating my physical strength to the second level would definitely not be a problem!

I might even be stronger than the female demon in the 'Holy Blood Church'!"

In the following days, the maids were busy everywhere on the ship, while young master Roland stayed in the study. Occasionally, he would play musical instruments, and occasionally criticize the maids' cooking as not delicious.

One day, Roland took various documents from the study, and finally walked through the entire ship, understanding the ship in detail. Then he returned to the study.

Sitting at the desk, Roland looked at the bookshelves in the study, feeling a little excited.

Roland realized that he had a serious misconception—he had always regarded this ship as just a ship.

This is indeed correct. For people on land, ships are just a means of transportation.

But it is not the case for the three-headed snakes.

"This is not a ship at all."

"This is Dagma's wizard tower!"

No wonder Dagma hated Saladin so much, because he would have to give this ship to Saladin later.

The previous dispute between the two was because of this ship—the upper echelons of the Hydra wanted to take this ship from Dagma's hands and give it to Saladin.

This ship had been repeatedly modified by Dagma for many years, and its value far exceeded the wizard towers of many tower masters.

The Hydra Group has unimaginable wealth, and so do the three-headed snakes.

However, in Roland's view, the most valuable thing was the hundreds of books on board—of which the books in this study accounted for the majority.

There were hundreds and thousands of kinds of books in the study. According to the results of magical exploration, there were a total of 2362 volumes.

Most of the knowledge in them was something Roland had never been exposed to.

Some were about the ocean, some were about the climate, and some were books related to various churches and monasteries.

There were also quite a few books about the Eastern Territory, but Roland had not read them.

To be honest, he hadn't read many books. Roland had basically not read about climate, geography, history, language, noble crests, theology, and so on.

In fact, many Black Abyss wizards also don't read enough books, and everyone is too utilitarian.

Black Abyss wizards will only delve into books when they can no longer improve their realm—wizards like Mentor Usak, who use a lot of time and knowledge to fully arm themselves, are the most powerful wizards.

Most of the Black Abyss wizards' knowledge comes from their apprenticeship.

And Roland didn't learn anything during his apprenticeship.

Roland suddenly had a desire to read more books.

He wanted to take a good look at these more than two thousand books, including those in the three-headed snake wizards' storage bags, those sorted out by the nuns in various cabins, and the books of the Bloodless Wizards, which added up to nearly three thousand volumes.

He wanted to read and study these three thousand books carefully.

As a wizard, Roland very much hoped that he could become a scholar, like Mentor Usak.

He was different from many people, he was very young. Spending some time arming himself with knowledge would not delay his cultivation.

In fact, he should have taken some time every day to read while cultivating.

Shaking his head, Roland took out a piece of paper and began to write a plan.

This is what he wrote:

[1. I lack knowledge and have always relied on my past knowledge and talent to solve problems temporarily. The three-headed snakes suffered from not understanding the wizards of the Eastern Territory and died in our hands. When I go to the South, I will suffer the same loss.

There is a lot of knowledge about the South on the ship. This is what I urgently need to understand.]

[2. In my previous research on avatars, the puppet stitching technique and amber fluid gave me a new idea. This may solve the problem to some extent that I cannot control my evil thoughts once I possess a straw body. This matter is very important.]

[3. My talent in swordsmanship is far higher than my talent in magic. I have almost no bottlenecks on this path. I was able to cultivate swordsmanship to the level of 'quasi-first-order great swordsman' during my apprenticeship, and I will definitely be able to cultivate swordsmanship to the level of 'quasi-sword saint (quasi-second order)' now.

I don't have the original Great Wermick Swordsmanship for the time being.

But the Night Demon Swordsmanship is very compatible with the Night Demon Swordsmanship. Once practiced well, it will never be bad.

But I must lay a good physical foundation. There are many sea beasts in the sea, and their life essence is very helpful for my improvement in the 'Night Demon Body'.]

[4. The Shepherdess's Anthem is an important trump card, and I need to spend time studying it more. Including music, mutation, I need to study it very much.]

After writing these things, Roland shook his head.

If these three points are summarized, it means that he now lacks strength, lacks knowledge, and needs to cultivate quietly.

After fighting with Dagma, Roland discovered a serious problem.

Going to the South with the strength of the middle stage of the first level is still too dangerous—because he is a wizard.

Unless he finds a deserted corner to hide in after stepping into the land of the South. Otherwise, he will soon be exposed as a foreigner.

Roland originally wanted to pretend to be a Holy Knight. I'm afraid it won't work.

He lacks physical strength and common sense about Holy Knights.

He needs to quickly replenish his knowledge about the South and find a way to improve his physical strength as soon as possible to reach the level of a quasi-sword saint.

Otherwise, as soon as he joins the church, his identity will be exposed!

Bang, bang, bang.

Someone knocked on the door.

(PS: Dear lords, please give me some monthly tickets. Last month, I was only a dozen tickets away from reaching a thousand, which is a pity. I would like to thank you here and work hard to update ten thousand words to repay everyone)
