Chapter 12 Big shot

Grand Duke of Habsburg.

A powerful figure in the empire.

And what he holds is military power.

In Truman's understanding, he is equivalent to the military commander of a country on earth.

Since he can use magic potion, he must be an extraordinary person, and I don’t know if he is of the ‘legendary’ or ‘mythical’ level.

Such a person can be said to be "overwhelmingly powerful".

No wonder Anton felt that Truman wanted to curry favor with him.

But if you can really curry favor, it's like holding a big thick leg in this other world.

…

This side of the earth, on the notepad.

Truman wrote the words "Habbs" after "Empire". This was the first time Truman could come into contact with a big figure who could influence the history of another world.

The key is to complete the 20-character ‘continuous word’.

Truman began to cram in all the literary knowledge about "Zhuge Liang", but it must be said that the scope was too broad.

The emergence of the "Seven Star Lantern" spiritual text means that it is not limited to official history.

The emergence of the spiritual text "One feather in the sky thousands of miles away" means that it may be poetry.

The 20 words Truman wants to solve may appear in literary genres such as official history, romance, drama, poetry, lyrics, music, etc.

But Truman's focus is still on poetry.

"Because regardless of the single-character spiritual text, if it is a 'continuous word', it will generally be a complete word. This should also comply with the principle of 'uniqueness of spiritual text' in a sense..."

Truman studied hard, even when he was reviewing for the college entrance examination.

Before traveling back in time, Truman swallowed a large amount of the energy-boosting potion at the highest dose.

After realizing that the biotechnology on the earth's side can increase the 'share' of the other world, Truman has regarded this as a tonic, or an experience pill in the game.

…

When he went to work again, Truman decided that if Anton made things difficult for him again and did not give him a list of the day's work that he deserved, he would complain to the owner of the workshop.

However, Anton did not go to work today, and the owner of the workshop directly handed over the power of assigning work lists to Truman.

Truman looked at the pile of single-character spiritual writing work on the work list, and was not happy, feeling that it was nothing.

These jobs are not valuable...

Also, where did Anton go?

"He is preparing to be promoted to Extraordinary." The owner of the workshop said casually, "You will be responsible for all the work in the translation workshop for the next week."

"Anton will... use the second-level potion?" Truman asked. He heard the workshop owner say this last time, "Is it because the first-level potion is no longer effective if you drink the second-level potion?"

"Yes, according to the principle of unique existence, a dose of magic potion can only act on the human body once." The workshop owner said, "You must hurry up and be promoted to extraordinary, otherwise there is no hope of defeating him~"

"But I haven't saved enough money." Truman asked, "Teacher, can I pay on credit?"

Ha~ The workshop owner smiled and said, "You still have three days to prepare."

…

Truman failed to get credit from the workshop owner, and when he went back to assign tasks to the apprentices, he met Lilith again.

Lilith secretly said that if Truman could be promoted to Extraordinary, she would help Truman complete the 20-word "continuous word".

"Can you lend me 25 gold pounds first?" Truman asked.

Ha~ Lilith showed Truman’s familiar smile.

Why are people in this world so stingy?

…

After Truman assigned the work lists to the apprentices, he also took on a few single-character spiritual writing tasks.

During the translation process, Truman discovered another not-so-good situation.

"The 'share' won't increase..."

He completed 5 single-character spiritual essays today. Since Anton is not here, he will record them temporarily and get paid later.

But that's not the point. The point is that Truman feels that his upper limit of 'share' today is the same as yesterday.

His 'share' is no longer growing.

…

on the earth.

Truman picked up the medicine he had taken recently.

Look at the description of ‘one course of treatment every seven days’ above.

Remember that you seem to have eaten enough for seven days?

So is drug resistance emerging?

This is already a very effective central nervous system stimulating drug, and there is no one with better effects in the short term, so Truman plans to focus on another injection that can increase the body's excitement level.

Check the express delivery, those injections should be arriving in the next few days.

Maybe three days...oh, no, only two days, just enough to catch up with the most rewarding work assignment so far in two days.

In addition to the express message, there was also information from his father on the phone. His father made it clear that he would come to visit Truman very soon.

Hmm... Truman scratched his head while replying to the message, hoping to stop him one or two more times, but the effect would definitely not be good.

Hiding is not a long-term solution after all. If he confesses, Truman cannot predict his father's reaction. What if his father hands him over to the country?

After thinking about it, he could only count on extraordinary power.

After learning about several extraordinary first-order sequences during this period, Truman has selected one sequence as his target.

Once promoted to extraordinary, and that magical power can also be brought to the earth, it may be possible to temporarily solve the crisis facing Truman.

…

The village of Ruva is located in the north of Lundinni.

It is a beautiful village on the Oise River.

Many nobles built holiday homes here.

The Anton family also has a large manor here.

It was late at night, but a terrifying roar came from the manor, as if a monster was roaring crazily.

The sound seems to be coming from the direction of the wine cellar?

This made the manor's servants hide in bed and tremble, and they didn't even dare to take a deep breath.

Outside the wine cellar, Anton's father held a torch, and the bright light of the fire illuminated his face, making his expression look uncertain.

The entrance to the wine cellar in front of him was tightly locked with iron chains. Inside was Anton who had taken the second-level magic potion, and a large amount of kerosene was piled outside.

An extraordinary second-level potion worth 200 gold pounds.

Counting this, his cumulative investment in Anton has reached 2,500 gold pounds, which is almost his entire net worth.

If Anton can no longer be promoted to extraordinary, this son will have no meaning in continuing to exist.

So there is a lot of kerosene piled here. If Anton goes further and further on the road to becoming a monster, he will burn this place down.

boom!

A bright red tentacle penetrated the cellar door.

There were a large number of wriggling white suckers on the antennae, like the mouth of a crying baby. They were layer upon layer, rolling and rolling with the wriggling muscles of the antennae. It was extremely disgusting.

Failed... Anton's father was extremely disappointed. Just when he was about to throw the torch to light the kerosene, the entire wine cellar door suddenly burst open, and Anton appeared there.

Anton is still in human form, but there are several bright red tentacles on his back that are larger than himself.

"Father! I was successfully promoted to Extraordinary!" Anton shouted excitedly.

Anton's father showed a solemn expression.

The extraordinary people he has seen are all in human form, but he is not sure that there are non-human form extraordinary people.

The owner of the workshop never told him that the Extraordinary who was successfully promoted must be a human being.

"Have you successfully been promoted to an extraordinary second-level 'scholar'?" my father asked.

"Yes, father." Anton's eyes showed a strange blood red color under the firelight, "You don't need to panic, this is just an extraordinary power that I have not digested."
