Chapter 164 54: Divine Grace Warlock (4k)
After half a month of observation, Jeremy confirmed that Augustus was indeed a good research collaborator.
Although in his opinion, Augustus' current research is nonsense, and another hundred years of research will not yield results.
But after all, the other party has no knowledge of divine grace. Being able to have such a set of self-logic and implement it perfectly has defeated many people.
He stayed in the guest room of the other party's house temporarily during this period, taking time to cooperate and observe him during the day, and meditating to enter the heaven node at night to study.
"Augustus is the most suitable candidate I can find in a short time, and there will be no second one."
Jeremy made up his mind and decided to seize the opportunity and recommend him to become "God A member of "The Grace".
The so-called Divine Merchant is what he called himself after discussing with two other people. He could also be called Divine Merchant. One of Hedwig and Heath focuses on healing, and the other on revenge. As for the name, There is no objection to small things.
Late at night, he opened the window of his room and used the technique taught by the Supreme to summon the nearby soul crow.
After the technique is completed in the palm, a constellation-like light is outlined, and then leaves the palm, condensing into little gleaming stardust, like fireflies, floating out of the window and disappearing into the night.
If he had a choice, he hoped it wouldn't be that guy.
Jeremy was a little unhappy to see the Soul Crow who called himself illiterate when they met.
After waiting for more than ten minutes, a thumping sound was finally heard outside the window.
Then an ordinary-looking crow flew in and stood unceremoniously on the coat rack, lowering his head and combing his feathers with his beak.
“This Soul Crow Messenger, I want to recommend a new person to the Supreme. What do I need to do?”
Jeremy looked at it for a while and saw that it didn't seem to be planning to speak actively, so he could only ask in a more cautious manner.
The crow said nothing and continued to clean its feathers.
"Did you meet a mute?" Jeremy was confused and repeated the words again, but still got no response.
“Can’t you tell the difference between us? Is there a possibility that it is just an ordinary crow.”
The familiar voice was like a voice changer coming from his came from behind.
Jeremy turned his head and saw another crow on the table.
“You are Soul Crow, what is it?”
“Oh, my new godson, come here and say hello to your illiterate uncle.”
“ "Angang!" The crow on the clothes rack flapped its wings twice and shouted a few times.
“According to your human etiquette, shouldn’t you give me some gift to express my gratitude?”
"."
Jeremy only felt that his tooth hurt, as if he had encountered a goblin.
No, maybe the leprechaun is cuter than this unarguable crow.
But he did prepare things in advance.
Bend down and take out the box of chips from under the bed.
"The French fries can't escape my nose! Where's the ketchup? Do you eat French fries without ketchup? Angry! Bastard, let the godfather eat it first!"
Soul Crow's first bite of French fries turned out to be... After being robbed by Crow, Soul Crow immediately began to teach the other party a lesson.
Under the flying feathers, Jeremy silently took out the ketchup packet, opened it and squeezed it in.
"It tastes better when it's freshly baked. Yours is already cold. Ang, I will eat M's next time."
Soul Crow is like a food critic.
"I saw you when I was in Oxford, and you are the same now in London. Do each of your envoys have such a wide range of responsibility?"
Jeremy asked tentatively.
“The soul is like French fries, it won’t expire if you keep it for a while.”
It must be the philosopher among the soul crows.
Does it mean that the soul can exist in reality for a long time? Jeremy silently wrote it down, suddenly feeling that these boxes of fries were really worth it.
"So, do we have a chance to see these souls? Or will these souls still retain consciousness and find people close to them?"
Jeremy wanted to talk more.
"Ang Ang, why is your cup so full of water? Do you want me to act like a crow drinking water?" Soul Crow did not answer his question.
Not getting an answer, Jeremy was not disappointed and turned around to add water to it.
After eating one box, it released its claws controlling the crow's head and let the crow eat too.
"You want to recommend new people, I have reported it to the Supreme Lord truthfully, and I will bring the 'Heaven Beacon' over at noon tomorrow."
Jeremy nodded after hearing this, and then realized that these soul crows seemed to work It's not just as simple as collecting souls.
Of course it’s not simple.
Shiraishi Hang finally created a creature whose intelligence transcends its size. Based on the principle of those who can do more, how could they not make good use of it.
Anyway, the soul lamp has the ability to transport small items. This is also a main escape method for the soul crow. It is also good to bring them something without showing up.
The next day, Jeremy and Augustus were waiting in the living room. Augustus only knew that an important guest would be visiting today, but what kind of guest it was? Jeremy was like a riddle man. You just know it when you say it.
Augustus did not press the question. During this period, apart from college, he was the most devoted to research. It felt good to find like-minded people, even though it was so-called seeing his parents again. Just his first goal.
As the time approached noon, Jeremy's takeout order also arrived, a large amount of French fries and beef burgers, but no fried chicken.
Considering that crows may also be birds, he avoided the risk.
“Uh, I don’t know, Professor, you like French fries so much.”
"No, this is for the guests."
Jeremy was busy, filling the dining table with plates, then covering it with the freshly arrived French fries, and then squeezing ketchup on it.
The table became golden, and the lines of ketchup were like ripples on it.
Before Augustus could continue to ask, the soul crow flew in through the window with the crow from yesterday.
“All crew! We discovered the Gold Coast, ang ang, this is the legendary chip beach!”
"Aang!"
They dived into the fries.
Augustus: "."
Did he just have a hallucination?
The crow is talking?
The soul crow only ate two sticks before he remembered the business. He screamed a few times, took off from the French fries coast, and flew around the house for a few times in a rather strange posture. Then, a lamp lit up with a faint green light. The soul lamp slowly appeared between its paws. Looking at the increasingly unscientific scene, Augustus's expression gradually became tense, and he began to realize that everything was wrong.
The soul lamp shook a few times and projected the shadow of the heaven beacon on the table next to Jeremy. After a few seconds, the shadow solidified and fell on the table. Not a sound was made.
Jeremy nodded to Soul Crow in thanks, and then carefully held the Heaven Beacon in his hand with a solemn expression, and a piece of information was automatically transmitted to his mind.
After reading the message, he looked at Augustus and spoke slowly.
"Maybe you will find it difficult to accept what I am going to tell you now, but I can swear that it is all true. You know, when I was in Oxford, my daughter died in an accident. Just when I couldn't accept the reality , when I wanted to get it over with, the Supreme found me and let me understand that there is a mysterious system outside the world that cannot be explained by scientific concepts."
"The Lord of Divine Grace— —The Supreme Being is willing to give us the wisdom of divine grace and give us the opportunity to explore its in-depth knowledge. However, I want to resurrect my daughter. This involves too many aspects. My energy is limited and I need more people with the same needs. Research."
"I remembered the soul gathering you founded in school, so I deliberately approached you to see your attitude towards research. I can feel your enthusiasm for research during these half-months of contact. Passion and persistence, and our goals are so similar, so would you like to join me in studying soul and death?”
Jeremy was almost certain that Augustus would not refuse, so he didn’t. Be informed in advance.
Just to create a more grand atmosphere for him.
Augustus took a deep breath and looked directly at Jeremy: "This is exactly what I dreamed of."
His hands were shaking, which was tantamount to UFO enthusiasts really photographing aliens.
A little scared, but more excited.
Hearing this, Jeremy held the Heavenly Beacon between the two of them: "I, Jeremy Wade, recommend Augustus Moore to become a member of our divine benefactors and seek knowledge. It is our life mission, and knowledge is our greatest wealth."
After the reading was completed, the tip of the pyramid began to rotate, projecting light as usual, directly into Augustus's eyebrows.
For a moment, he seemed to have entered a dream from which he would never wake up.
He was in it, confused and unable to find any exit.
"You are afraid of death."
Seemingly far away, a thick and majestic voice came, making his ears ring and his chest feel tight, as if he couldn't breathe.
“Studying the soul is just to know the destination of death.”
The depths of his heart were torn apart, and everything he thought seemed to be completely unable to escape the other person's perception.
“But you don’t want to die.”
Under the tremendous pressure, Augustus’ veins popped out and he slowly knelt down and lay on the ground.
"The fear of death makes you pursue eternal soul. Let me see how far you can go."
The pressure suddenly dissipated, and Augustus felt that he was alive. Come over.
".Supreme?"
He murmured to himself, but there was no echo from around him.
At this time, a large amount of knowledge was continuously poured into his brain, forming a permanent memory.
When he woke up, it was dusk.
Jeremy was sitting at the dining table, eating the leftover fries from Soul Crow.
"Oh, you woke up earlier than I thought."
Augustus did not answer, rubbing his temples, lying on the sofa, staring at the ceiling, saying nothing.
"Isn't it uncomfortable? But once you get used to it, you will be delighted and see a whole new world." Jeremy shared his experience as someone who has been there.
"Professor, have you seen the Supreme Being?" Augustus asked in a dry voice.
“I’ve seen it. An old Asian man who looks very kind. Ahem, my guess is that it has something to do with the extraordinary secrets all over the world. But as long as the Supreme can help me, I don’t mind. Is he a devil or an angel?"
Jeremy said honestly, he just couldn't help but look around, afraid to turn around and see the kind-faced Supreme looking at him, which would be a great test for his heart.
“It’s amazing that the professor can be so pragmatic about divine grace. Professor, when you watched my research, it must have been like watching a fool firmly prove that 1+1=4.”
Augustus didn’t mention the highest level again, his tone was somewhat resentful.
Jeremy was really hit by what he said: "Well, it's a little better than this. Let the past be in the past. Now, we are our own people."
Ogu A complicated flash flashed through Stuart's eyes: "Thank you, Professor."
"I am doing it for myself too. There are not many divine disciples now, and I am the only one who studies the soul. If you can join, it should speed up the progress a lot."
After working hard for such a period of time, I am able to put this Jeremy also feels a little rewarded when the good seedling becomes one of his own.
"Do you need to take a rest? Or should I take you to meet other divine mentors?"
"I have rested enough and can join the research at any time." After hearing about the research, Austrian Gusdu stood up and seemed to be in good condition.
“Okay, I will take you to the ‘Heaven Node’ first. On the way, you can think about your external image and code name.”
After a few words, Augusta understood how to enter the meditative state, and after entering, he immediately followed the induction to find the paradise node in Jeremy's mouth.
Jeremy in owl state brought Hedwig over.
"This is Ms. Sausage, have you decided on your codename?"
"Hello, please call me ghost."
The white mist gradually fades As a classic transparent and floating ghost image in movies and TV dramas, the character is a middle-aged man dressed in ancient Rome.
After watching the two introduce each other, Jeremy said: "There is also a man named Heathcliff, but he rarely comes here, but I think you should also be able to sense the existence of other people in the void. It should be him, a relatively lonely person."
Augustus nodded in understanding.
Next, Hedwig returned to the room he built to continue medical-related research.
"Does Heathcliff want revenge?" Augustus asked when he was alone.
"I think so too. His research direction is destruction techniques, and he has also discussed with us the structure of transformation." Jeremy shook his head, "We don't need to delve into each other's private lives. , just make sure your true identity is not exposed.”
Augustus said nothing and followed Jeremy into his research room, absorbing his research experience and results.
".You understood too quickly! I thought it would take at least a few days to finish, but I didn't expect you to complete most of the progress in one night." Jeremy was amazed at this and could only attribute it to Augustus was naturally good at studying this kind of "occult science".
“It’s the professor who teaches well.” Augustus said modestly.
"What do you think of my idea? It develops from object deformation - biological deformation - exploring soul changes - soul transfer - soul leaving the body."
"If you want me to tell the truth If so, I think we can go straight and use divine grace to find the existence of the soul first. How about that?" Augustus gave suggestions.
"It just so happens that I still have a batch of unused animals in my basement."
