"Golden magic [Knowledge Bestowment] can forcibly impart the knowledge or information you have mastered to another person. Knowledge has weight, so this ability can not only save talking time, but also be used as an offensive ability."
Miss Miller watched Jenkins' face, looking certain that Jenkins would grant her request. Her eyes glowed faintly in the dimly lit compartment, although not as bright as the cat's eyes, they were more gentle and charming.
"These things are just a process. I don't want to waste our time, so tell me the answer directly. Can you agree to this simple request? You don't need to harm anyone's interests, and you don't need to betray the church. I believe in equal exchange, so The reward I can offer is some knowledge you are interested in."
Jenkins looked at her coldly and didn't answer for a long time. Divine magic ability can be used not only by believers of gods, but also by pagans, but in addition to the side effects of discounting the effect of ability, they are also very likely to be influenced by the power of righteous gods, or infected, making their beliefs unconscious produce an offset.
The magical technique just now knew that it was very likely to be related to the sage, so the rare unbelievers in front of Jenkins could be trusted subconsciously.
He thought for a long time before asking:
"I encountered a very interesting mathematical problem a few days ago. Can you please answer me? If I define an integer greater than 1, the number that has no other factors except 1 and itself is a prime number. Excuse me: how Prove that any even number greater than 2 can be written as the sum of two prime numbers?"
"Um?"
Miss Miller frowned, "I know you want to distract me with complicated math problems, or take the initiative of the conversation, but this method is a little too naive."
"It's really naive, tell me the answer. If you are really pursuing the ultimate beauty of mathematics, I think you can answer such an interesting question."
In the carriage, the huge illusory geometric figure that gathered countless mathematical symbols and knowledge reappeared. In the middle of the two, dense numbers are constantly arranged and combined, and the colorful symbols that Jenkins does not recognize collide with each other, deform and produce new changes. But this time, no new knowledge was added to the pattern, and it simply disappeared into thin air.
"snort!"
The woman snorted softly, and tilted her head not to look at Jenkins, but at Chocolate, who was watching the two humans talking with interest. Seeing Miss Miller looking over, she pretended not to care and buried her head in her paws.
"The pathetic egos of men."
While talking, she took out the notebook from her satchel, jotted down a few notes carefully, and then closed it with a snap.
"You're not writing: 'Universal Calendar 1865, Month of Sage and Harvest, Wednesday the 9th, Williamette offended me today, I note'?"
Jenkins had already determined that the woman had no great malice towards him, that the deal she had proposed was a good deal, and he was willing to agree to it, so he tried to say something humorous to ease the tension.
"It's not so boring, I will remember the questions you said, and then answer them."
She still maintains confidence.
"Then I wish you luck, no, I should wish you luck."
Miss Miller was an unbeliever, and that was indeed something Jenkins couldn't think of. There are unbelievers in this world, but they are even rarer than cultists. He doesn't want to comment on unbelievers, because he doesn't even know whether he has faith in this way, as long as he is not a cultist or a criminal.
The pattern of Miss Miller's soul emblem is a simple white symbol, like the mathematical symbol 0. Such a special emblem was definitely not on the wanted list, which further reassured Jenkins.
The church has detailed records of where the malicious coachman appeared, and this is not confidential, even if Jenkins consults it, it will not attract attention. After discussing with Miss Miller, Jenkins agreed to her request after confirming that she had no criminal record and no illegal thoughts.
"So, what kind of knowledge do you need? Since you want to trade, you must first negotiate the terms. Although I am knowledgeable, I don't know everything, so please don't ask about things that humans cannot know."
"I'm interested in how you circumvent A-11-2-3301's disgusting charging methods, I remember he would harvest the organs or flesh of the passengers."
He asked in a low voice, the lady in front of him is extremely smart, asking questions rashly will only reveal his secrets. So, it's better to pick one that interests you.
"oh?"
The lady's pretty eyebrows raised, "Mr. Williams, although your grade is not high, you have a very good vision. People who study mathematics are indeed the smart type."
"No, I just asked this question because I thought you were smarter."
Jenkins thought to himself, and then realized that the chocolate had somehow jumped onto his lap.
"But you just helped me collect some non-confidential information, and the answer to the question is more precious. I always abide by the principle of equivalent exchange."
"So how much do you think this answer is worth?"
"Two hundred thousand gold pounds, and in cash."
Her expression was very serious, not like she was joking. At that moment, Jenkins thought, his entire face convulsed.
Finally, he asked Ms. Miller how she found out that her cane was a special item. After learning again that it was related to her ability, so the price was very expensive, Jenkins changed the question and asked Asiyash Family business.
"That family of madmen? Well, let me see. I do know something, but you'll give me ten pounds three shillings."
Jenkins endured the pain in his heart, gritted his teeth and nodded.
"The cost of summoning a demon from the magma hell is more than 200,000 gold pounds. This involves not only precious materials, but also sacrifices, life sacrifices. From this perspective, the person who conducts the ceremony, There must be a lot of power in the secular world. As for the Asiyashi family, they are all lunatics. Too much contact with alien species and blasphemy knowledge has caused the crazy factor to permeate every generation of descendants. The Orthodox Church’s thinking is not wrong , this matter is indeed related to Asiyash, I am not very interested in this matter, but simple reasoning knows: he is definitely not a nobleman, but he has a good relationship with nobles; a man, no more than 40 years old; , but will not be stingy with killing ordinary people, and the level of the bestower does not exceed level 7... Don't look at me with such eyes, this is all obvious, do you want to ask me why?"
