"And one more thing," Oden added.

"Now you need to prepare for the worst. For example, the strange impact of the Dead Lands was the work of that so-called Vesalion, and the smuggling might also be related to them. If an heretic gets involved at this time, the situation will be very bad. It won't be a simple taboo conflict anymore; it might be even more terrible than a taboo conflict."

"My advice is that you should take this opportunity to build up your own organization. Because you can't keep going on your own forever; you'll need someone to help you."

Lu Yuan did not respond immediately.

"Think carefully about what your own abilities are," Oden said.

"Among us who study taboo subjects, each person has different abilities. For example, I am skilled in some taboo knowledge and alchemy, so I initially established my own organization based on alchemy."

"Think about your own abilities and strengths. Use that as a foundation to attract and retain people."

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan frowned, silently pondering what his abilities were.

Having gray and white text allows me to see things that others cannot, and this is my greatest asset.

He possesses authority over the sea of ​​knowledge, and he also possesses the worm of knowledge. He can draw people into the sea of ​​knowledge, just like the Forbidden Society.

They also have their own expertise, allowing them to see the medication plans that others need and to customize them specifically.

He also possesses bizarre inscription skills, enabling him to create strange items that are impossible to obtain outside the world.

There are indeed very few people in the empire who can make strange items, and even if there are, it would be very difficult to hire them.

Burren had mentioned this before.

So, taking all of this into account, Lu Yuan suddenly realized that he seemed to know quite a lot.

In particular, if he could develop a drug to suppress the rampage of the pathway, his organization would definitely be able to operate smoothly.

But that's a matter for later. The most urgent task is to prepare the materials and improve our combat effectiveness.

But Oden's suggestion was also valid. It seemed that he did indeed need an organization to help him gather some information, because his future advancement would all require dealing with taboos, and he couldn't possibly travel to every city.

Thinking of this, Lu Yuan nodded.

Then, Lu Yuan said what he wanted to do: "I want to figure some things out. Also, I don't want to go with the flow this time."

"Okay," Oden replied readily.

"As long as you know what you want to do, that's fine. Now I'll help you choose some materials. Didn't you say you know some strange inscription techniques? Perfect, I'll pick out a few strange materials for you that can make some highly lethal items. You can use them to make something."

"No problem." Lu Yuan decisively changed direction and headed towards the academy's special storage area.

I still have thirty-two Knight Tokens, which should be enough to buy some materials.

The storage area is located next to the main road leading from the dormitory area to the teaching area, not far from the library.

It was a freestanding gray stone tower, much taller than the library tower. The entire tower occupied a large area and was an irregular semi-circle.

The tower itself has no windows, only a narrow ring of ventilation openings. On its stone surface, there are concentric carvings resembling ears of wheat.

The main gate is a single metal door that looks quite old.

Beside the gate stands a waist-high stone platform, with inscriptions carved on it that extend deep underground to the base of the tower.

Clearly, this thing was for verifying identity, or rather, for opening the door. Lu Yuan pressed the badge on, following the same procedure he used to use in the library.

As the inscription lit up, the metal door slid open silently.

Clearly, the metal door is very well maintained; even though it looks quite old, the internal gear meshing mechanism has not been damaged.

Upon entering, the first thing you see above the tower gate is the three characters: Fengzu Tower.

Clearly, this must be the name of the tower.

Upon entering, you'll find yourself in the first-floor materials warehouse.

The hall was one and a half stories high, with floor-to-ceiling shelves on all four walls. The shelves were filled with a large number of burlap sacks, wooden boxes, and pottery jars. Each shelf had a small numbered nameplate.

In the very center of the hall stands a small four-armed statue with an inscription around its base.

A student was pressing a badge onto the inscription base and reciting a long string of numbers. The four arms of the statue gradually lit up, and a lifting platform cracked open in the ground at its feet.

Then, a box of materials was slowly carried up.

"It's self-service?" Lu Yuan was somewhat surprised when he saw this.

Indeed, once inscriptions have developed to a certain point, they can certainly accomplish some very convenient things, probably...

In the lobby on the first floor of Fengzu Tower, no one spoke; only the sound of turning pages filled the air. Clearly, they had all come with their own purposes.

There weren't many people on the first floor; most of them were holding small booklets, picking and choosing.

Lu Yuan also took a book from the shelf next to the door.

The booklet was quite thick. When you opened it, you could see that every page had an introduction and a rough sketch of the materials.

Then the first page is Knight Grass, a gray-green plant that looks like roadside weeds.

The above description describes it as a hemostatic and swelling-reducing herb, considered the best for soldiers on the march.

Crush it and apply it to the wound; this will stop the bleeding and prevent the wound from becoming inflamed and ulcerated.

Drying and boiling the contents can help combat fever caused by wounds.

It is distributed in the Academy Garden and throughout the North.

One knight's token, five bundles.

Then on the second page, there's the herb *Anshun*, an excellent herb for calming the nerves and aiding sleep.

The roots and stems are dried in the sun, boiled in water, and consumed. After half an hour, one will feel drowsy.

The booklet also specifically mentioned that long-term use of small doses can have a soothing effect on mild fluctuations in rationality.

One Knight's Order, Three Packs.

Page 3, Frostberry, a very sweet and juicy berry after being touched by frost. Eating it raw can relieve fatigue and quench thirst. Crushing it and applying it to the skin can prevent frostbite and also relieve burns.

One knight's token and one jar.

"Hey, it's Frostberry?" Oden's voice suddenly popped up.

This guy had obviously been awake for who knows how long and was looking around.

"This is good stuff," Oden added.

"What good stuff? Is this frostberry an essential ingredient for some rare potion? But the description doesn't seem to suggest it." Lu Yuan was taken aback at first.

"This stuff is delicious." Oden smacked his lips. "It was my favorite food when I was alive. I didn't expect to find it here. You must buy some to try, it's really good."

Lu Yuan was speechless upon hearing this. So it turned out it was delicious after all.
