Chapter 407: Feral Sheep
Gilan and Ms. Crow spent a relatively pleasant morning chatting on the lawn of Qipan Manor while having a meal.
They talked about the current situation to the mysterious circle, and from the mysterious circle to alchemy.
What surprised Ms. Crow was that Gilan Iros actually had an extremely profound knowledge of alchemy, and some of his unique insights inspired her a lot.
Originally, at the party when they first met, Gilan didn't say a word, which led her to mistakenly think that the young man was just a beginner with a weak foundation and was unable to integrate into everyone's discussions.
But now it seems that the other party is just hiding it and keeping a low profile.
This made Ms. Crow secretly sigh in her heart, she is worthy of being a student of the alchemy master Para Celsus.
She also had a strong premonition.
Perhaps in a short time, the young man in front of me will emerge in the mysterious circle and gradually become a legendary figure like Parra.
At noon, Gillan said goodbye to Lady Crow, left the Chessboard Manor, and returned to the world.
He stepped through the small aperture door and returned to the master bedroom of the apartment.
As soon as he came back, the first thing Jilan did was to activate "Beautiful" and once again conduct the deduction of the fifth-level essence of the player's path.
This time I got the "Lighting" secret from Ms. Crow. With this key blueprint, it will definitely be much easier to deduce it.
Jilan closed his eyes, concentrated his attention, and kept recalling the three level 5 secrets of "Doll", "Monster" and "Light" in his mind.
Soon, Jilan's eyes sparkled with light, and "Bailan" was aroused and continued to make deductions.
However, this time it still failed.
‘Huh? Isn’t the mysterious energy not enough...’
The colorful light in Jilan’s eyes slowly faded, revealing a look of regret.
He noticed that the color number "1112" became translucent, and a gray "3000" appeared above it.
‘It seems that even with the “light” secret, the energy required for deduction is still huge. But it's not bad, at least the 2000 points gap has been reduced. ’
Gilan sighed secretly.
Only by providing "Banlan" with the secrets of each path as a reference can it have enough basis to deduce a new essence.
Although Jilan felt it was a pity, he had no choice but to put the matter aside for the time being. Either continue to collect secrets, or accumulate enough points and then perform deductions.
‘Well...in "Legend of the Invincible", we also collected a lot of Kingdom Brands. Let's throw them all into the Cross Sword bonfire and burn them first. ’
He thought for a while, walked to the chair by the window and sat down, then leaned on the back of the chair and closed his eyes to fall asleep.
Breathing gradually calmed down, and consciousness sank.
Jilan soon came to the Dream Sea under the night, and the island of his soul was still quiet. Only in the open-air stone hall in the center, the cross sword bonfire burned endlessly.
He walked on the stone path and quickly came to the bonfire. After stopping, he raised his hand, spread his fingers, and lifted it out of thin air.
Buzz.
Buzz--
Colorful marks appeared one after another, suspended in Jilan's palm, spinning continuously.
These kingdom imprints all have the same pattern, with a sword embedded in the center of concentric circles and the faint outline of a beast.
There is also a slightly larger brand with a more complicated pattern, which is slightly different. It is a combination of concentric circles and the Holy Grail, and the emerging outline is a twisted human body.
'Nine level 4 "beast" brands, and one level 5 "rotten corpse" brand...'
Jilan counted the number, with a thoughtful look on his face.
‘I have never swallowed so many brands at once, and I don’t know what changes will happen to my spiritual kingdom. '
Thinking to himself, he no longer hesitated and directly threw the ten Kingdom Brands on hand into the Cross Sword bonfire at once.
Puff puff puff!
The fire of the Cross Sword bonfire was low at first, and then became more vigorous and vigorous with a roar of a bear. As if adding oil to the fire, the flame was quickly catalyzed and burned violently.
Jilan noticed that the kingdom brands became distorted and deformed in the flames, as if being torn left and right by some kind of force, emitting colorful lights.
The familiar spiral pillar of fire appeared again, rising into the sky. But this time the intensity was even more intense. The fire tornado continued to rotate and raised strong winds.
Swish——
Jilan soon felt that the island beneath his feet was shaking slightly, like an earthquake.
The rumbling sound is endless.
He saw that new carved stone slabs were beginning to be dug out of the soil outside the open-air stone hall, further expanding the area of the entire stone hall.
The "Mad King" who was originally sitting on the throne of the thumb stone pillar seemed to have received some kind of power and slowly raised his arm.
The skeletal crown burning with green flames became more dazzling, and the translucent scarlet cloak on its shoulders burned and swayed like flames.
Jilan’s eyes suddenly narrowed.
He noticed that behind the throne of the "Mad King", a huge beast figure slowly emerged.
It seemed to be a white male sheep with ferocious horns. The corners of its mouth were rotten and there was a wound extending to the back of the ear.
It looked like he was grinning.
The body of the Aries is also covered with a gray stone skeleton armor similar to that of the "Mad King", and its four legs are burning with green flames.
'It seems that after devouring ten Kingdom Brands, my mind not only became stronger, but also gained an extra monster...'
Jilan was quite surprised. .
But soon, he thought of something.
'The essence of the "beast" belongs to the way of the "Gladiator" in March, and this Si Chen symbolizes the "Aries" in the zodiac... After absorbing a large number of homogeneous imprints, the monster looks like Appears in the form of an oyster. '
'Well, there is also the influence of the "rotten corpse" essence, which makes the appearance and strength of this sheep-shaped monster also change. ’
‘It can be used as the mount of the “Mad King”. After I cast “King’s Coming”, it will appear in the world together. '
Jilan looked at the giant oyster behind the throne, which was two rounds larger than a regular horse. He couldn't help laughing and said softly:
"Just give it a name." "The Laughing Sheep."
The monster that had been given a name opened its big mouth, revealing its densely packed fangs.
It seems to be smiling.
Jilan felt the changes in her soul and was quite surprised. He estimated that according to conventional standards, his mental strength might have touched the ceiling of Level 5, almost reaching the new height of Level 6.
‘The psychic strength is one or two levels higher than my own original level. Maybe it can be used as a trump card to trick enemies who don’t know the truth into killing them. ’
Gilan lowered his eyes, brewing bad news.
It was precisely because the ninth pigeon Dedel didn't know this that she broke into his spiritual kingdom and was caught by the "Mad King".
According to the common sense of mysticism, the human mind is generally fragile and is a recognized weakness.
Once someone invades the mind and forcibly destroys the brand, it is equivalent to directly destroying the person's spirituality and source of strength.
This is also the most feared place of the secret society "Chorus" and "White Dove Tower".
They seem to have the secret method of invading the soul. If you are hostile to it, you will capsize in the gutter if you are not careful. They don't have to fight you head-on. Instead, when you are careless, they take the opportunity to sneak into the depths of your heart and destroy your kingdom brand.
But now, Jilan doesn’t have to worry about such dirty tricks at all. On the contrary, he wished that these enemies would come to his door.
'After devouring so many kingdom brands at once, there is also a level 5 one... I believe the four members of the "Hand of Dawn" have also been instilled with power, right? ’
Jilan looked up at the gradually shrinking fire tornado and thought to himself.
And the facts are consistent with his conjecture.
At this moment, the four people, the blue stork, the black snipe, the white gull and the red bird, who were scattered all over the world, were all divided into a powerful force.
Among them, Red Sparrow Aurora crossed the third-level threshold on the spot, catching up with the progress of Cang Stork and the other three.
With the help of this power, all four members of the secret society completed their accumulation in an instant. Once the Shenxiang Brand is completed, you can be directly promoted to the 4th level Kusei.
While they were extremely shocked, they all thought of the leader of their secret society, Mr. Gillan.
It must have been him again, who hunted and killed the new Kusei and devoured the opponent's kingdom brand, which made him "drink the soup".
However, the power obtained this time was too huge, so the four of them were surprised and wondered how many Kuzes Mr. Jilan had killed...
Power came so frequently, Mr. Jilan killed Kuzes Come on, why is it like killing a chicken? !
Gilan didn’t know what the four people were thinking.
After he finished all this, he woke up from his sleep and returned to reality.
Right now, it’s early afternoon.
Gilan walked out of the room, went downstairs, and after speaking to old Charles, drove to the Triumph Building alone.
As soon as he knocked on the door of the chairman's office, he explained the situation to teacher Palla with an apologetic look:
"Sorry, teacher, I have an appointment with Ms. Crow this morning, so Didn't come to class."
"It doesn't matter." The old man sitting behind the curved desk smiled and waved. "How is the status of the commission?"
"It has been successfully completed." Gilan walked over and sat down at Parra's signal. "Fosaka and his party, I successfully obtained the entrusted target, a real film called "The Legend of Invincibility"."
"The film has been delivered to Ms. Crow, and I got the 'Light' secret from her."
"Very good." Parra nodded and smiled.
"By the way, teacher." Jilan suddenly thought of something and took out a blue minotaur stone sculpture and a white card. "This is what I got from the Fosaka royal family when I returned."
"Well..." Parra took the two things and looked at them for a moment. "A 'Saar Card' and a 'Taunos Stone Statue'."
"The Saar Card is quite precious and is only circulated among the upper echelons of the mysterious circle. If you really want to measure its value, it's almost It’s equivalent to about 1,000 Caesars.”
Parra explained to his students.
“As for this stone statue, if it is not necessary, do not try to activate it. This will make the March Apostle feel something.”
“The head of state has no friendship with Si Chen. The two sides are not in conflict with each other.”
Jilan nodded, expressing understanding.
“I understand, teacher.”
"Yes." Parra handed the two things back to Gilan. "Since you are here, let's continue today's class. We have no time to waste."
"Yes." Gillan responded.
…
…
Study and life are always peaceful and you don’t realize how fast time flies.
In the blink of an eye, it is already the end of February.
Nearly a month has passed since Jilan returned to China.
During this period, Gilan studied step by step with Teacher Parra every day.
For Para Celsus, who had completely mastered the new stages of physical training, meditation and secret sword skills, after the initial shock, he gradually fell into a accustomed numbness.
Parra, who originally considered himself a genius, occasionally felt emotional after meeting Gilan, secretly thinking that in every era in this world, there would be some unreasonable legendary figures.
And will he, by chance, accept a student who will eventually become a legend?
He originally thought that Jilan was a slightly talented young man whose character and beliefs were worthy of trust, so when his life was about to end, he accepted him as his successor.
As long as the other party can learn three points of knowledge from himself, there will be no regrets.
But Gilan's performance time and time again gradually made Parra change this idea and give birth to more hope.
Perhaps, this student can surpass himself...
In the end, replace yourself, do better than yourself, and let the empire move towards the peaceful and prosperous era that the Knights dreamed of.
Para is looking forward to this.
In the process of studying, Jilan felt more and more pressure. The "Secret Marks of the Sage" taught by Teacher Parra are extremely profound, far more profound than the ordinary "decomposition and reconstruction technique".
The difference between the two is like the four arithmetic operations and the Stokes equation. Even if the metaphor here is too exaggerated, the "decomposition and reconstruction technique" cannot be described as simple.
But this still made it difficult for him to learn.
As a last resort, Gilan had no choice but to use "Beautiful" to speed up. By consuming mysterious points, you can master the key nodes of the "Secret Pattern of the Sage" step by step.
In this way, the remaining "1112" points of mysterious energy finally became "112" after being consumed many times, of which 1000 points were invested.
Gilan once again had his savings wiped out.
Of course, he has no regrets. After all, after paying so many points, the rewards are naturally not small.
He currently has a preliminary grasp of the "Secret Marks of the Sage" and is able to formally exchange some of his ideas with his teacher Parra in depth.
Ever since, on March 1st.
Parra announced the suspension of classes.
The master and apprentice entered the conception and testing stage, specifically to design the exclusive "Secret Pattern of the Sage" for Jilan.
Seven days later.
Gilan and his teacher prepared the materials together in the office, and then Pala personally engraved the "Secret Pattern of the Sage" on him.
I saw Parra holding a red crystal-like prism pen, and with a serious look on her face, she was carving extremely detailed lines and symbols on the palms of Gilan's hands.
The tip of the pen was extremely sharp, cutting through Jilan's skin, infiltrating the contaminated special red alchemy, and then closed it with a scarlet arc.
These lines are very fine and difficult to see clearly even through a high-power microscope.
Time passed quietly, and it was evening.
Pala then stopped writing, let out a sigh of relief, and said with satisfaction:
"Jilan, your 'Secret Pattern of the Sage' has been engraved."
