Chapter 34: Decomposing Relics (Additional update for leader Wushang Zhonglin)
Ivan.
Spiritual path, career is a psychologist.
The most special transcendent person Xiao En has encountered in the real world so far. Whether they are psychiatrists or psychics, they are high-risk professions in the weird country, because they can hear ancient indescribable whispers, and psychics can tamper with memories, implant them in thoughts, and plant spiritual hints that ordinary people cannot detect.
“It’s best to keep an appropriate distance from him.”
Xiao En has never thought of placing his hope on a psychiatrist. He is more inclined to temper his will, and the strange ability to modify and delete memories really makes him feel very afraid.
But the investigators will indeed delete some memories.
In some weird incidents, the investigators were severely mentally damaged, and psychiatrists would perform mental surgery on them to delete a day's memory, or some horrific memory fragments. If it is just regular mental pollution, then you only need to plant a spiritual suggestion so that they will not deliberately think of it.
Most investigators and night watchmen are not close to psychiatrists, and Ivan should have been used to this for a long time.
——"Those who play with the soul will eventually be played with by the soul."
When the spiritual path is promoted to a later stage, nine out of ten people will eventually go crazy.
Building 3, 12B.
Xiao En returned to his residence. He closed all the doors and windows, and then began to arrange the ceremony.
The rituals taught by Ms. Hecate are very simple. There are not so many fancy things, not even sacrifices are needed. Many of the three necessary elements of the ritual do not need to be gathered together. Xiao En only needs to arrange the most basic ones. Just follow the rituals.
Normally speaking, the completion of the ritual requires three core elements. The first is the transcendent essence (the relic), the second is the correct ritual (activating the power), and the third is the pointed name. (It can be a certain phenomenon, or it can be an ancient existence).
Most of the rituals are borrowed from external forces.
In order to make the ceremony more successful, many extraordinary people will prepare additional sacrifices to please certain beings. (Offerings, spiritual sacrifices, blood sacrifices, etc.)
The ritual taught by Ms. Hecate does not have the last step, which means that Xiao En only needs two elements, one is the transcendent essence, and the other is the correct ritual. rail.
Ritual is such a thing.
If no one responds, then it is just a decoration and does not have any supernatural power.
There are many honorable names that the ceremony points to at the end, and it can even point to oneself, but Ms. Hecate did not teach Xiao En any knowledge about this.
"The debts owed now will have to be repaid in the future." Ms. Hecate said.
A cluster of blue flames emerged.
Xiao En suspected that the ritual knowledge he learned and the honorific name he finally pointed to were all Ms. Hecate herself. Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain why he did not even need to gather the three core elements for the promotion ceremony.
How to say it.
Xiao En felt that Ms. Hecate had set up an internal line for him without him even noticing.
This may be the treatment for disciples of big bosses.
"In the early stage, you must rely on ritual decomposition, and in the later stage, you can refine it at will." Xiao En said to himself.
In that cluster of blue flames, the roots of flesh and blood suddenly began to tremble, and then they melted in the center of the ceremony. Xiao En also vaguely heard a piercing scream. , the extraordinary relic in the center of the ceremony squirmed and decomposed like maggots, and then a pool of dark red flesh and blood tissue flowed out and merged into the runes around the ceremony.
These are the transcendent essences that are broken down as one of the driving forces of the ritual.
Wizards don't want this.
Xiao En gently raised his fingertips, and as the mysterious knowledge flowed out of his brain, the talisman marks arranged in the ceremony began to light up with lavender light. The knowledge people cheered and followed the runes. The traces spread, eventually completely covering the remnants in the center of the ceremony.
Knowledge begins to digest them!
This extraordinary relic was decomposed bit by bit in front of Xiao En's eyes. Those parts with unique supernatural powers were gnawed by the knowledge he possessed. A certain law contained in the flesh and blood was gnawed away by him. Countless knowledge was transformed into an operating method that Xiao En could understand.
The whole ceremony takes about three minutes.
When the extraordinary relic in front of him was completely decomposed, the flowing mysterious knowledge returned to Xiao En's brain, and a new spell appeared in his memory.
——Damage transfer (2nd ring).
This process is not that Xiao En is learning spells, but that the mysterious knowledge is devouring the spells, and the power they possess is transformed into the power that Xiao En possesses.
"The magic in this world is indeed a bit crazy." Xiao En murmured. He picked up the table knife and cut open the palm of his left hand.
A trace of blood seeped out.
Next second.
As Xiao En activated the mysterious knowledge in his brain, the original magic power began to flow in his body, and the scar on the palm of his left hand suddenly appeared on the palm of his right hand.
"The casting speed of level 2 spells will be slower." Xiao En was keenly aware of this.
Although the old world order completely collapsed.
However, one old tradition has still been preserved, that is, the extraordinary person of the wizard path is not recommended to take risks and fight in person before fully digesting the extraordinary essence of the first stage. In the old days, they were wizard apprentices who had not yet officially graduated. They were an extremely rare resource. Most of them still learned basic knowledge under the protection of their mentors and elders.
It is not until after mastering the third-level spell that the wizard apprentice has officially graduated and has considerable combat effectiveness. (Approximately 5 extraordinary levels graduate.)
As for the career path on the combat side, it doesn’t matter. If you throw it out and grind it out, you will improve faster.
Night falls.
Xiao En poured himself a cup of black tea and leaned on the balcony, preparing to digest the knowledge memorized using reading magic today.
"The life-saving skills I have now."
"I should increase my attack power a little bit."
Xiao En played with the revolver in his hand. The firearm was good at dealing with the weird monsters on the flesh side. Those indescribable illusions are very reluctant.
“There are currently two ideas.”
“One is to continue to accelerate the accumulation of mysterious knowledge and jump directly to the enchanting stage, enchanting the bullets of firearms and adding supernatural power.”
"The second is to learn and master other combat spells to make up for the lack of combat spells."
Only children take multiple-choice questions.
Shawn wants them all!
Because he has accumulated knowledge from the earth in his previous life, his knowledge is much higher than that of other extraordinary wizards, so Xiao En will improve faster. There is still a chance to complete these two points at the same time. , but he will work a little harder.
“I still owe Benjamin 1,000 dinars.”
Xiao En picked up the black tea and took a sip, looking at the night shift workers in the distance, and said to himself: "I wonder if he caught the wandering poet who used his charm ability to seduce the lady?"
The wizard path also has charm. Spells, but transcendent relics are relatively rare.
High-sequence wizard spells and transformation spells can directly allow wizards to have combat capabilities equivalent to those of combat superpowers, but they cannot cast other spells when transforming.
“I’m a little short of money!”
Xiao En rubbed his forehead and murmured: “A monthly salary of 3,000 dinars is indeed a bit insufficient.”
>
"You have to find a way to fight in the wild."
Master Fa doesn't seem to be that easy to be.
Not long after Xiao En was promoted, he felt the pressure of money.
He stood up and looked in the mirror.
“Yeah.”
"Very handsome, a bit like a younger version of Keanu Reeves." Xiao En touched his chin and looked at the mirror in front of him. He had black hair and brown eyes, sharp eyes, handsome features, a high nose, and Kind of like the hero of The Matrix.
“How about I give full play to my strengths and find a young and beautiful rich woman first?”
………………
