The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant

Chapter 964 Discovery
Exceptional characteristics?
Upon hearing this term, the various members of the gathering reacted differently. Those who knew the "Eye of Wisdom," the bearded man, and the woman with the craftsman behind her all frowned. They clearly knew what Zhao Chen was referring to, but they were quite critical of him saying it directly.

The others looked bewildered, completely unaware of what 'extraordinary characteristics' were or why they were listed alongside 'main ingredients for potions'.

Zhao Chen, who observed this scene through his divine sense, thought to himself: It seems that the fact that people release their characteristics after death is not common knowledge, at least it is a secret among low-sequence extraordinary individuals.

There were quite a few people present who were interested in the necklace Zhao Chen had taken out, but if it was just to exchange for a potion recipe or a single material, they could still afford it. But who would carry around extraordinary properties?

At least the bearded man, the fat pharmacist, the stray dog, the lady with a craftsman behind her, and even the "long-gloved lady" couldn't produce any of them.

Finally, the old man with the "Eye of Wisdom" coughed and said, "Ahem, I have two main materials from 'The Reader.' If you trust me, we can exchange them after the gathering."

As someone who enjoys showing off his collection, the "Eye of Wisdom" gentleman was quite interested in a magical item with extraordinary abilities.

Yes, having a sealed artifact that can simulate abilities such as "appraisal" and "notarization," he already knows that the extraordinary power contained in the necklace Zhao Chen took out does not belong to the "psychological invisibility" of the "audience" approach, but it has an extremely similar effect.

“Okay, no problem at all.” Zhao Chen wasn’t afraid that the other party would harm him, after all, at this distance, there were very few low- to mid-level extraordinary beings in this world who could withstand his surprise attack.

Moreover, with Su Xuanbing waiting outside to assist him, he was confident that he could safely retreat even if he encountered an ordinary demigod.

Since Zhao Chen was the last person to speak, the party ended once his deal was finalized.

The "wise eye" old man began to arrange for people to leave, one person every three minutes, and he would have different people use different passages to try to keep them apart and avoid any "accidents" from happening.

Half an hour later, only the "Eye of Wisdom" old man and Zhao Chen remained in the living room.

The "Eye of Wisdom" glanced at him and chuckled in an aged voice, "Young man, is this your first time at this gathering? I'm sure I haven't seen you before."

Zhao Chen didn't sense any malice from him, so he smiled and said, "I should thank you for not kicking me out."

"The Eye of Wisdom" nodded slightly, but still said in a tone with a hint of warning: "I can feel your goodwill, so next time I hope you can obtain the information and code for the gathering through a more formal method, such as the daily 'Backlund Morning Post.' When the fifth page of the newspaper features an advertisement for Ernst Trading Company to purchase goods, it means there will be a gathering here at eight o'clock the next evening. The intensity and interval of knocking depend on the price quoted. The first number is the number of heavy knocks, the second is light knocks, the third is a long interval, the fourth is a short interval, and the rest are meaningless."

Sorry, by the time you host your next party, I'll have long since left. I might not even be able to tell if this projected alternate dimension still exists...

Zhao Chen chuckled inwardly, about to say something polite, when he saw "The Eye of Wisdom," the assistant to the great detective Isengard, walk in carrying a metal box and place it on a table. "Inside is the extraordinary characteristic of 'The Reader'... Hmm, I suggest you don't mention this name at parties in the future; you should understand why." Detective Isengard opened the metal box, took out the characteristic, and handed it to Zhao Chen.

Zhao Chen only needed to scan it with his "Vision Eye" to know that it was genuine, so he readily handed over the "necklace" that he had made on the spot.

After receiving the necklace, Detective Isengard took out a handkerchief, wiped his right palm, and took out a ring from his pocket that was inlaid with many tiny diamonds.

The ring has an intricate and exquisite design, with a bright green gemstone resembling an eye at its center.

Unsurprisingly, this is the powerful and extraordinary item, or sealed artifact, that the "Eye of Wisdom" possesses and can use for "appraisal."

After a few breaths, he looked at Zhao Chen, who had already retracted his special ability, with some confusion, and carefully asked, "Where did you get this necklace? The extraordinary ability it contains is very peculiar. Its effect is similar to 'psychological invisibility,' and the principle is similar, but the way it interferes with the mind is completely different..."

Can we "identify" the effects and even deduce the underlying principles, but not touch the "mind"?

Zhao Chen seemed to be deep in thought, then suddenly remembered something and took out a ribbon-shaped magical artifact, which was the "Toad Light" that Fei Meng had given him.

This magical artifact also contains the "Blind Heart Technique," but it is crafted using materials with corresponding "evil energy" nurtured by Xuan Tian.

"Could you take a look at this ribbon for me? It was also found where I got the necklace." Zhao Chen lied without batting an eye, even with a straight face, after all, they both came from Xuan Tian, ​​didn't they?
Isengard, the "Eye of Wisdom," took the ribbon and once again "looked" at it with the beautiful gemstone ring, its emerald green color resembling a human eye. His brow furrowed even deeper, and he said uncertainly:
“I can see that it’s extraordinary, but I can’t ‘identify’ anything about it… It’s strange.”

The same spell, the one that Xuan Tian "natively grew" cannot be "identified", but the one I gave it using the "Star Chariot" accessory can?
In other words, the laws of Xuantian and the other-dimensional world may not be compatible, but after the "Star Chariot" handled it, they became compatible?
Well, "Taixiao Daojun" should be able to do it too, otherwise Su Xuanbing's abilities and magical artifacts wouldn't be usable here... Of course, it's also possible that this other dimension is just a "projection" right now, and our essence is still within Xuantian, which is why we can use Xuantian's spells and supernatural powers...

In short, the "Great Sun Star Chariot" actually has the ability to harmonize the laws of Xuantian and other other dimensions at a higher level, which was something I didn't know before.

Considering this is a "merchant ship," it makes sense... Heh, I wouldn't be surprised if later on, "starship parts" could demonstrate the ability to customize "exchange rates" for power systems in various worlds...

Furthermore, if the four ancient goddesses truly came from another dimension, and their power could be passed down in Xuan Tian, ​​it must be the work of the "Star God".

What about the other foreign evil gods? Their followers shouldn't be able to exert their power in Xuantian... So, this is why the evil gods have been trying to "pollute" Xuantian?

What the big shots behind the scenes wanted to tell me during this "Taixiao Trial," besides the secret of the "Blood Moon," was this?
Why not just say it directly...? Why go through all this trouble?
