So what else can be used?

Knowledge of the Earth?

She somehow found the seventh edition of "Advanced Mathematics" in her mind, and the next second, there was an extra book on the scale.

Bang.

The scales suddenly tilted towards Tia.

The gold content of the wine is a bit too high.

The scales moved, almost scaring Vera. She saw a mysterious white and green book appear on the scales, and then the scales were pressed down in an instant.

Tia only chose half of the first volume, which slightly balanced the weight.

Click, click, click!

The Hanged Man in the shrine shook for a moment and said, "Deal done."

The next second, a lot of profound knowledge appeared in Vera's mind, giving her a headache. All she could hear were the banging sounds of the blackboard and the sudden lectures. She had never heard of the language before, but the amazing thing was that she could actually understand it.

The puppet in the shrine stuffed the knowledge into its head like a raped O.

But this unknown great being seems to be a good person?

The deal was done, and the milky white string holding the shrine up gradually disappeared, and the shrine gradually faded into thin air.

Before the shrine disappeared, Vera hurriedly asked, "May I ask your name..."

Tia's brain froze for a moment, then she said:

"In R'lyeh, the eternal mansion, the sleeping witch awaits your dreams."

Volume 1: Chapter 12 Evil Knowledge!

boom!

As soon as the last candle was lit, Vera fell to the ground with a headache, "Ouch!"

On the side, Isabella hurried forward to help Vera up, touched her forehead with her fingers, and asked in confusion: "No problem. What happened? Why did you fall down suddenly?"

"I don't know, I have no idea at all..." Vera covered her forehead and struggled to stand up.

A large amount of profound and mysterious knowledge was still running around in her head. Some of it she could barely understand, but some of it she could not understand at all. She had no idea what all those symbols meant!

Isabella suddenly became serious and asked, "What exactly happened just now?"

"I... I was just chanting the Ouroboros's sacred number to complete the diving ritual, but for some reason I pulled up an unidentified object from the alchemical path, and it even made a deal with me..."

"Did a deal?!"

Isabella was shocked. She had just carefully performed the sacred ritual to remove the evil spirits. It was impossible for anything other than the designated target to sneak in. Even if it did, she would not have been completely unaware, unless...

——The other party is a great being.

"We made a deal," Vera said with some guilt, "I took the Eternal Seal that you gave me, Aunt Isa."

"That doesn't matter, the question is how are you now?!"

Isabella's voice was very serious. She had seen people making deals with the evil demons of the alchemical path before. Although it was an "equal exchange", they might not really get what they wanted, and they might even lose their lives.

For example, if you exchange one hundred kilograms of gold, the other party may give you one hundred kilograms of cursed gold.

Once you get it, you die, and then the other party takes the gold back.

Vera said dazedly, "To be precise, he gave me some knowledge. Uh... it's hard to say."

She got a headache just thinking about those symbols.

She had a lot of questions in the book, especially the one with a lot of test questions, which were all stuffed into her head.

Vera prided herself on having good grades in church school, but she was dizzy when she looked at those questions. To be more precise, she didn't even understand the answers!

Isabella breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that it was a trade of knowledge.

Knowledge has a threshold—this isn't an adjective. It's not because of wealth disparity or social class that creates a barrier to access. Rather, understanding, recognizing, and using knowledge is inherently influenced by hierarchy.

For example, the church's "Nine Holy Seals" ritual is clearly written in the oath and prayer, but ordinary people and even low-sequence people cannot discover it without instruction. As for its use, it clearly has a minimum sequence requirement.

There is also the Defense Bureau under the Silver Castle Royal Family, the Alchemy Society of the Iris Kingdom, and large and small supernatural organizations. The highest-level supernatural objects they possess can even stop a war involving millions of people in an instant, turn day into night, and accelerate and reverse time.

However, just to understand those things, one needs an extremely high sequence, and the user will have to bear an unbearable huge price.

The threshold is not only a restriction for ordinary people, but also a form of protection.

Mastering extraordinary power comes at a price. The nine known paths to date stipulate the nine principles of extraordinary power. The alchemy of the Holy Number 7 stipulates "equivalent exchange", which clearly states:

1. The greater the extraordinary power, the greater the price you must pay;

2. The deeper you dive into the extraordinary path, the more curses and pollution from nightmares will follow you.

Isabella stroked the girl's hair and asked with concern, "What kind of knowledge did the other party give you? You don't need to tell me the content or the name of 'Him.'"

"That knowledge is a bit dangerous..."

"Danger?!"

Isabella's eyes suddenly became sharp, and the next second she grabbed Vera's wrist, wanting to check her whole body.

Vera panicked and said:

"No, no! Aunt Isa, it's not that dangerous. I mean, I mean maybe, the knowledge I received is a bit like... mathematics?"

.................

.................

.................

Open your eyes.

Tia stood up from the armchair, and the four candles in front of her had just burned out.

Up to now, she still had no idea what the temple she encountered after her deep dive was, but she could control it with ease.

This thing is like a ghost wandering in the deep sea. If someone is unlucky enough to dive at the same time as her, they might unfortunately encounter her.

She called it the "Hanging Temple."

She could design the temple's exact appearance, even turning it into a QQ Hotel. The only thing that remained unchanged was herself, bound by her ankles and wrists, hanging upside down in the air like a sacrifice.

When someone is diving deep, they may encounter the temple.

Vera was just unlucky this time. It just so happened that the two of them were setting up the ceremony at the same time, and she dived deep and came across the temple.

It shouldn't be necessary to rearrange it again - fortunately, the materials required for the deep diving ritual are simple, otherwise she would probably go bankrupt because of this inverted temple.

However, the [Eternal Seal] I got from Vera is a good thing. It can make me a superman for ten minutes - but I can't use it.

And then... rearrange the diving ceremony.

Find four candles of different colors...

Boom!

Boom! !

In the living room, a knock on the door interrupted Tia's actions. She quickly threw the candles and the unarranged Yueyi Ceremony materials into the box, locked it and pushed it under the bed.

Then, she slowly went to the living room and opened the door.

The door opened a crack, and a hand stretched out first, revealing a certificate with a crown and shield printed on it, shining brightly.

"Excuse me, Silver Castle Police Department. Nice to meet Miss Tia Sulph. I'm Roman, Commissioner of the Suppression Bureau directly under the Police Department and Director of the Newlon Port Suppression Bureau."

........

Volume 1: Chapter 13 Sincerely Inviting You to Join the Anti-Suppression Bureau

Roman walked meticulously to the chair in the living room and sat down. He was wearing a dark blue tuxedo, dark gray riding boots, long white trousers with a leather belt, and a civilized stick with little lethality around his waist.

Tia was used to facing police officers. The frequent visits from police officers over the past two months had made her demystified by the police.

Especially that trainee police officer Scarlett who seems like an idiot.

I hope she still has a chance to become a regular employee.

"Chief Roman is here to arrest me?"

"In theory, it should be. We've already apprehended the middleman who sold your herbs on the black market. He's also suspected of dealing in guns and ammunition, and of providing a large amount of ritual materials to the illegal immigrant Canaan Ogre, who used them to refine spiritual energy and create transcendental items. It's a shame his upper-level middleman ran away so quickly, otherwise we would have wiped out this entire illegal business."

"I don't quite understand."

"You can certainly say that, given the relationship between Miss Sulph and Miss Anne."

"You searched me thoroughly." Tia poured a cup of hot cocoa, pushed it over and asked, "Want a cup?"

"Thank you." Roman took the hot cocoa and said with a smile, "In Canaan Ogre's underground alchemy room, we found a large-caliber elephant hunting revolver. According to the Newlondon police investigation, traces of the tranquilizer you made were also found in over forty cases of missing homeless people in Newlondon."

"Anyone can make a tranquilizer. You can't convict someone based on that."

"What was your purpose in purchasing the revolver and gunpowder from the black market middleman?"

"For self-defense, and for blasting graves."

"Exploding graves?"

"Yes, I found a nice cemetery a while ago and planned to use dynamite to blow it up to make some pocket money to supplement the family income. Of course, I could also start from the topsoil, dig a test square on the ash pit, and then dig out the hole bit by bit. But after all, you know, I'm just a little girl with no weapons and both parents are dead. I can't do such a thing, right?

Roman became interested and asked, "So how much money does the owner of the cemetery have?"

Tia said calmly, "I blew one up once and took over three hundred gold pounds. Officer Roman is still interested in this?"

The tomb bombing incident was real, but no one got paid.

The noble in the grave was so poor that Tia felt sorry for him. Before leaving, she put two pieces of bread and a small bottle of tranquilizer in his coffin.

Roman was quite surprised by the three hundred gold pounds, and smiled with narrowed eyes:

"So many? If this doesn't involve illegal possession of explosives and desecration of corpses, I'd like to learn about Miss Sulph's superb skills in this area."

"I am in legal possession of explosives. Count Mercury gave me a certificate of possession."

"You were incredibly well-prepared, refusing to reveal even a single flaw. And you do possess a certificate of innocence. I found no information about you at the crime scene."

Tia smiled and said, "No, no, no, you can arrest me for indignity to a corpse."

"That won't do. Not only is the three-month sentence completely useless for indignity to a corpse, but if the daughter of Count Mercury knew about it, she would surely be furious. And I have no intention of being hostile to you, or you, for that matter."

Roman tapped his fingers on the table and squinted his eyes. “But I have a feeling you and Canaan Ogre are definitely involved.”

"But you have no evidence, so you can't arrest me."

"No, my superiors told me to drop the investigation into the unrelated individuals. There's a bigger secret behind Canaan Ogre. Compared to his secret information, nothing else matters. So the Silver Castle Suppression Bureau told me to give up the investigation into Ogre's death."

"behind?"

"This is confidential, please forgive me."

Tia tilted her head to indicate that she didn't understand.

Roman looked directly into Tia's eyes and said politely, "The investigation is quite intense, but unfortunately, the Newlon Port Defense Bureau is quite short of manpower. The pressure from above is intense, and things are happening fast, so—"

The director stood up, bowed, and said, "Whatever your background, as an herbalist who has mastered so many medicinal formulas, and an expert in archaeology and blasting techniques, you are a rare talent.

"Therefore, I sincerely invite you to join the Newlon Port Defense Bureau. If you are interested, you can come to the Dagangwan District Police Station at any time. By the way, you can collect your reward."

Roman's purpose is quite obvious.

If the worst that can happen is to investigate, just invite them to join. It’s better to have less trouble than more.

This Miss Sulph doesn't look like a law-abiding person. She dares to do this even though she is not yet an adult. It is promising for her future. It is better for her to join the Prevention and Suppression Bureau and be supervised under its nose than to let it develop wildly.

Besides, the New London Port Defense Bureau is indeed seriously short of staff.

Tia was extremely lacking in knowledge related to the supernatural realm, and had no objection to the official plagiarism. She asked with concern, "Give me a reward?"

"Let me correct you. You are now a good citizen who bravely stepped forward to do what is right. You are the hero of Newlon Harbor who single-handedly destroyed the cult's lair after discovering that the cult was conducting an evil ritual. As for today's conversation, only the two of us will know about it.

This was a gesture of goodwill. Regardless of whether the Miss Tia Sulph in front of him was a courageous and good citizen, or a supernatural being with close ties with the secret organization, Roman or the New London Port Defense Bureau no longer had the energy to deal with her.

Compared to this, the thing behind Canaan Ogre that directly threatens the order of Newlon Port is more important.

Roman stood outside the door, leaning on his walking stick, and reminded:
