Andrew was terrified as he thought about it.
But the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense. The clock-wheel worm was a rare transcendent item even for a god.
As a gift, it was definitely valuable enough. It was at least on the same level as the demon sword. Lin Jie wouldn't have rejected it because it wasn't valuable enough.
This was the real power of the rules!
The power of this clock-wheel worm depended on the amount of aether the caster had. There were many restrictions, so even if an annihilation level used all his strength, he could only use it once in a small area.
Basically, it could only be used to save a life at a critical moment. If the opponent could kill you before you started the clock-wheel, this thing would be useless.
It was very limited.
But it was still a divine weapon that could change one's fate.
Otherwise, Andrew's family wouldn't have spent so much manpower and resources to build this device and let the family head keep this transcendent item as a family heirloom.
But … Andrew felt that he had overlooked something.
What kind of power did the owner of the bookstore in front of him have, and what level had he reached? Remember the website: m.9biquge.com.
Because of the Miyie Tower's lockdown on information and intelligence, the Truth Society could only find out some scraps.
They only knew that Lin Jie's power was definitely above the god level, but they didn't know the details. They only knew that he was omniscient and omnipotent.
But which religion didn't make their god omniscient and omnipotent?
Andrew didn't think that the owner of the bookstore would have such power. The possibility of the other customers exaggerating and the Miyie Tower trying to please him accounted for most of the possibilities.
But now he suddenly realized that although it wasn't to that extent, judging from the Miyie Tower's attitude, the owner of the bookstore must have mastered a high-level domain.
And he might have accidentally shown off in front of an expert …
Andrew carefully observed the young man's expression but couldn't find any clues.
Lin Jie looked at the Vice President of the Truth Society who was getting weirder and weirder. He knocked on the table and said, "Other than apologizing, what else do you want? Did you forget something? "
He suspected that there was something wrong with this Vice President. His current behavior was like the Alzheimer's patients he had seen before.
He kept looking at other people's faces, and from time to time, he had to check if there was something wrong with his memory. He tried his best to remember the other person's appearance and what they were doing.
Andrew's whole body trembled, and his heart that had finally relaxed tensed up again.
This, this is a warning!
Since the owner of the bookstore was dissatisfied with the gift just now, he naturally needed to increase his bargaining chip!
This was a hint to remind him that he should quickly offer his greatest sincerity!
"Buy books! I want to buy books! "
Andrew hurriedly said, "I've heard a lot about you and your bookstore. As a member of the Truth Society and a scholar who has dedicated his life to learning, I'm full of reverence and desire for knowledge. Therefore, I'm very eager to obtain your books. For this, I'm willing to pay any price!"
His heart was now full of sincerity, and he didn't stop talking. He tried his best to say good things, hoping that he could become a customer of the bookstore.
The owner of the bookstore would not refuse someone who came to ask for help, but only if you bought his book.
At the same time, only by obtaining the book would he be able to obtain the power he wanted.
Lin Jie stared blankly for a moment, then instantly revealed a business smile. The original resistance and unhappiness all disappeared, faster than the change of face in Sichuan opera.
His smile was like a spring breeze, "Oh … So you want to buy books. Then you should have said so earlier. If you want to buy books, then just buy books. You don't have to bring a gift. You're too polite."
"Sit, quickly sit."
Lin Jie smiled and gestured for him to sit, pointing to the high stool in front of the counter.
"Oh, oh." Andrew was stunned for a moment, then he sat down in front of the counter, and his heart finally surged with ecstasy.
After this rollercoaster of emotions, he had finally obtained the approval of the owner of the bookstore and had the qualifications to buy books.
Whether or not he could eliminate the mistakes he had made before would depend on his performance this time.
Lin Jie put aside the box of clockworms, waved his hand to call Prima over, and said, "Go and pour a cup of tea."
Prima's injuries were actually almost healed, and she had no problem moving around freely.
Hearing Boss Lin's order, she naturally ran over to help.
Andrew had noticed the existence of this girl from the very beginning, but although he knew that she was Margaret's sister, he didn't know much about her …
No, wait, why would Margaret's sister appear here?!
His tensed mind finally relaxed, and he finally had the time to think about this problem.
Margaret had been attacked and her whereabouts were still unknown, but her sister had strangely appeared in the bookstore …
At this time, Lin Jie took the teacup handed over by Prima, and pushed it in front of Andrew, and suddenly said, "Do you know who Prima's uncle is?"
He suddenly realized that since the higher-ups of the Truth Society were already in front of him, he could just ask for the information directly.
Andrew was shocked, "Zerom!"
So that's how it was. He understood why the owner of the bookstore asked the obvious question. He looked at Prima and saw her pale face. She must have been injured.
In other words, Zerom was indeed the mole, and he was one of the people who attacked Margaret.
Not only did Zerom attack Margaret, but he also tried to kill Prima.
And Prima just happened to come to the bookstore to ask for help.
In other words, their enemy was the same person!
Lin Jie said, "It seems that you know …"
Andrew smiled bitterly, "You don't need to tell me. I didn't notice that he was the mole. It was my stupidity and dereliction of duty. In the past, I was influenced by him and made a lot of mistakes, but now I've turned over a new leaf and want to atone for my mistakes."
It seemed that the vice president in front of him already knew Zerom's crimes without him saying anything.
And this Zerom had done more than one bad thing.
Lin Jie nodded, "Very good, I also want to talk to him about something. Can you ask him to come here?"
Andrew was stunned, "What … do you want to talk to him about?"
Lin Jie smiled calmly and raised his chin, motioning him to look at the door. Andrew turned his head and saw a hole in the door that had obviously been patched up.
"I want to talk to him about the compensation for my door."
"No problem!"
Andrew nodded at once, and his heart was wild with joy.
It was better to come early than to come at the right time. He was afraid that Zerom happened to be in the line of fire, which gave him a chance to be transferred out of the bookstore's blacklist.
Lin Jie said with satisfaction, "Then I'll wait for your good news … By the way, what kind of books do you want to buy? I can recommend some books to you, for example, I like 'The Alchemist' very much … "
