Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery.

Chapter 53: Flora and Fauna Surrounding Silver City

Audrey's exclamation of "justice" expressed the inner voice of everyone.

As a group of "Mid-Sequence" and "Low-Sequence" Extraordinary people, it was difficult for them to imagine that a demigod could have such strange and unpredictable abilities.

Perhaps one of your good friends has completely become a puppet of another person after being "parasitized", and people around him may find it difficult to notice.

"Sun" Derrick made a judgment: "The person living next door to me is likely to be parasitized by Amon using the second method?"

"That's possible." Odysseus spread his hands and said, "But I'm not sure."

Magician Fors also sighed, "It's hard to imagine that such a power exists."

Odysseus smiled and said, "From what I know, after reaching the demigod level, extraordinary abilities seem to undergo a qualitative change."

Then he said to Derrick, "After the party is over, be careful when you come into contact with the person next to you. If you feel unwell, seek help immediately."

"Thank you for your reminder." Derrick also realized that the person next door was very dangerous.

After a pause, he came back to his senses and asked Klein the Fool for a pen and paper. He "expressed" the potion formula and handed it to the Hermit.

Odysseus took it and took a look: Sequence 9: The Singer

Main materials: a crystal sunflower or the tail feather of an adult flint bird or the tail feather of a firebird, a siren stone or a singing sunflower.

Supplementary materials: a piece of midsummer grass, five drops of July wine juice, and a piece of elf dark leaf.

He only needed to take a glance and he would remember it firmly. Then, under the control of his mind, the paper in his hand first became illusory and then quickly disappeared.

Odysseus then said to Little Sun, "After the last gathering, I collected some information about the 'God-Forsaken Land'.

"This reminds me of an interesting question, and I hope to discuss it with you."

Klein and "The Hanged Man" Alger both noticed a detail: the "Hermit" had channels to collect intelligence about the "God-Forsaken Land."

The "God-Forsaken Land" is not a very high-level secret in the Extraordinary World, but the information about it basically exists in the form of legends or rumors, and it is difficult to obtain useful information.

The church or some extraordinary families may have some accurate information, but it would be difficult to trade.

This seemed to confirm Klein and Alger's previous speculation: The Hermit had special intelligence channels.

This was of course a signal that Odysseus had deliberately released. He knew so much amazing history and intelligence, so amazing that he only dared to trade that information at the Tarot Club.

With such a preparation, if it is continued a few more times, even if the information about the fall of the "Ancient Sun God" is traded later, it will not arouse too much suspicion.

Derrick didn't think too much about it. "Excuse me, what do you want to know about the 'God-Forsaken Land'?"

In his opinion, the information just provided by the Hermit was more valuable than a Sequence 9 potion formula, so he would actively answer the Hermit's questions.

Everyone else listened carefully to the conversation between the two people. They were curious about what interesting questions the "hermit" had thought of.

"Are there still animals in the 'Forsaken Land of the Gods'?" Odysseus asked. "Are there still plants?"

Alger frowned slightly: What's the problem?
Klein, hidden behind the gray fog, seemed to understand something. "I'd almost forgotten that this 'hermit' was a research talent. Such people often conduct astonishing research in seemingly ordinary places and obtain surprising answers." Audrey also had a premonition that this question might develop in a very profound direction.

“Yes…” Derrick was slightly stunned before answering, “But…but they may be different from the plants and animals over there.

"They are more like monsters. They are basically poisonous or very aggressive."

Odysseus continued, "Please describe two animals and two plants in detail."

"Okay." Derrick nodded and said, "There's a swamp not far north of Silver City. In it, there's a fish with fangs and extremely poisonous properties.

"They're similar to the loaches described in textbooks, but the big ones can grow as tall as an adult and can stay on land for a long time. If you get close to a swamp, they'll rush out and attack humans..."

Fors tried hard to imagine a fish chasing a person: What a wonderful world.

"There's a kind of bug in the east of the city that likes to suck blood and brain marrow." Derrick continued, "It's about as long and thick as an adult's index finger, and it always moves in groups.

"Whether they encounter humans or any other animals, they will use their sharp mouthparts to drill into the animal's body. If not dealt with in time, they will even drill into the brain..."

Audrey frowned, feeling a little disgusted and a little horrified.

Odysseus further asked: "What do these two creatures usually feed on?"

Derrick replied, "Monster."

He further explained: "The 'God-Forsaken Land' is roaming with humanoid or bizarre monsters."

Odysseus nodded slowly and made a gesture of "please continue".

Derrick continued, "Not far from the swamp north of the city, there's a plant with sharp thorns and rope-like vines.

“In addition to having roots that can absorb water and nutrients from the soil, they can also hunt animals or monsters.

"Some vines of this plant have suckers, and some barbs have different toxins. We occasionally collect these vines and extract the toxins for use."

Only then did Alger notice: "The Sun" has been participating in the Tarot Club for so long, but I have never thought of inquiring about common news such as the "God-Forsaken Land". Just by listening to him talk about these animals and plants, I have already gained a deep understanding of life in the "God-Forsaken Land".

While feeling emotional, he glanced at the "Hermit", but still didn't understand the other party's purpose.

When talking about the last plant, Derrick finally smiled: "In our Silver City, black-faced grass is everywhere.

"Its colour is completely black and its leaves can be ground into food when mature. It is precisely because of the existence of black-faced grass that most of us do not have mutations or deformities.

"This is a gift from God and our hope to persevere."

Audrey saw the Sun's smile, took a deep breath, and smiled too, "Yes, it must be the hope given to you by the gods."

At this moment, she felt a little sorry for "Little Sun". He must have never eaten cheese or toast.

The "world" sitting at the bottom reminded in a low voice: "Normalism in the midst of abnormality is a kind of abnormality."
