Chapter 44: The Code of Conduct for "Scholars."

Because the weather is already cold, and it is just a normal school day, Chris is not dressed as thin and formal today as he was yesterday.

He wore the brown and yellow wool underwear that Bonnie had chosen for him, a black tweed coat and thick flannel trousers, a pair of brown calfskin boots on his feet, and a gray plush yarke hat on his head.

Traditionally, Chris would go to the teacher's office every morning for a little more than half an hour before returning to the classroom.

After all, whether it is morning or afternoon, the university starts an hour later than the public school, and the school leaves in the morning, so Chris also has plenty of time to pick up the siblings.

Today, after briefly asking Bert and Bonnie if there is anything unusual after becoming extraordinary, Oliver begins today's lesson to teach Chris Giant.

It is a language that mobilizes the forces of nature, and has in itself the mystique of sacrifices, prayers, and spells. Although in the extraordinary circle, relatively niche.

The ancient Brusak language, the lingua franca of human beings in the Quaternary period, is directly derived from the Giants, which is a branch of the Giants language and the source of the writing and language of the contemporary northern continents. Later, the Fifth Age, which is now the Irish Special, Atis, Fursack and other contemporary languages, gradually evolved.

Because in the previous month, Chris had quickly learned and mastered the Constantine language, which must be mastered in the circle of extraordinary. After dinner each night, he and Bert and Bonnie taught more slowly in the study next to the bedroom on the second floor.

It is the language of ritual magic in the extraordinary world, and it is also the lingua franca of offering sacrifices and prayers to the gods and communicating with spiritual creatures.

No one knows who created this language, but this language with a special role was developed in the extraordinary realm of the Third Age by a legendary extraordinaire named Konstantin.

The power of this language is extraordinary!

Many of the chanting of complex magic can only be used in Constantine.

The Giant's language, which also has extraordinary powers, is too complicated and difficult to understand, and there is no regularity in pronunciation, so it was abandoned by the extraordinary world when Constantine was introduced in the Third Age, so there are not many extraordinary people who are familiar with and master the Giant's language.

Chris sat obediently in front of the teacher, and as a "scholar", he didn't need to take notes at all.

Oliver smiled:

"Ordinary people who want to become extraordinary can only rely on potions, and the name of potions comes from a mysterious book, which we will discuss in more detail later.

"After passing through the Giants, Elfs, and Ancient Brusaks, the contemporary Constantine language has been continuously transmitted and translated over time, and has long been in line with the characteristics of the times.

"Although the current Constantine is used by the extraordinary, after all, the best incantation in ritual magic is Constantine. As a result, the first few languages are already very niche in extraordinary circles, but I still hope you can master them.

"Because there are some rare and precious books that record the previous ancient languages. And at certain times, they can have unexpected effects. ”

Chris nodded: "Don't worry, teacher, I will study them carefully."

The beginning of a language is often difficult, so Oliver just taught the most basic words and stopped going on and began to ask Chris what he learned about "digesting" and "playing" potions.

"I think the most important thing to play a good 'scholar', as the name suggests, is to learn and master book knowledge. ”

Looking at the teacher's encouraging smile, Chris continued:

"For his extraordinary abilities, I think he also has the ability to awaken memories, for example, I hurriedly flipped through a book in your library yesterday, and although I didn't remember much at the time, on my way back, the contents of that book seemed to appear in my mind until I remembered it completely.

"Also, I seem to be very proficient in all kinds of chemistry and vapour, and if this is due to the influence of potions, I am a mess in physics. For this reason, the teacher of basic physics came to me three times and asked me if I had any opinion about him.

"Thankfully, Mr. Eric helped me say some nice things that allowed me to escape every time, but I think that's why he showed off in front of his physics teacher. ”

Oliver nodded approvingly, "You have a good summary of the rules for playing 'Scholar'. It is believed that it will not be long before you will be able to fully digest the potions in your body. ”

As he spoke, Oliver took out an envelope from the drawer and handed it to Chris, who was opposite.

Chris took the envelope with both hands, there was no handwriting on it, Chris opened the envelope in confusion, took out a note from it, and saw that it read:

"The 'scholars' play the rule: believing that knowledge is power, having a cursory understanding of the occult, and being more proficient in some chemicals and complex gears, etc., they seem to know everything, but they are not very proficient. The core competency is to awaken the memory, to be able to remember all the knowledge you have seen, and at the same time, to improve the ability to understand and learn. ”

Chris seemed to read these words, his eyes became more and more shocked, and he looked at the teacher and asked:

"This ...... This is?"

Oliver blinked and laughed:

"I asked a good friend yesterday about the rules for playing 'The Scholar', because he is already a Scholar path Sequence 6 'The Alchemist', and I thought if I could give you some advice, but I didn't expect you to summarize it yourself very well. ”

Teacher...... There are so many friends. Chris shook his head and asked a question that had been bothering him for more than a month:

"Teacher, you mentioned before that the extraordinary person precipitates extraordinary properties after death, and it is the main material of potions that can replace the sequence of the deceased, so why can it be replaced?"

Oliver lifted his gold-rimmed glasses, his expression was a little serious and relieved:

"This question involves the most important secret of the extraordinary world, which is the three laws of extraordinary properties. I'm glad you can seriously think about some small questions, in the extraordinary field, the less noticeable things are, often the great truth is hidden!

"I'm going to talk to you about this question in detail until you have fully digested the potion and entered the next sequence, because there are too many questions involved, and you haven't saved so much occult knowledge now, so you may not be able to understand it. ”

Chris nodded, looked at the time of class, and was about to get up to say goodbye to the teacher, when he accidentally saw a few pages sandwiched between a book on the teacher's desk.

The exposed text turned out to be Chinese characters!

Could it be that the teacher is also an earthling, or is it just the people around him?

Chris pretended to pick up the book on the table casually, flipped a few pages at random, and just happened to turn to the yellowed papers, Chris picked it up with a look of surprise and asked:

"What kind of text is this? How come I've never seen it?"

Oliver glanced at what was in Chris's hand and smiled:

"That's Arnold Staff, the original manuscript of Arnold the Great, left by my teacher. Most of the ones that are now widely circulated are copied. Until now, no one in this world can recognize what is written on it.

"There are many people who say that it is the biggest secret of Arnold the Great's claim to be emperor, and there are also extraordinary people who say that whoever understands and masters the above content will know some of the secrets of the high sequence. There are also extraordinary people who say that it contains the recipe for the potion of the complete path, after all, he was a Sequence 1 angel king second only to the gods during his lifetime. Of course, this is only something that some of the extraordinaries of the mid-to-high-level sequences know.

"But some of the extreme, low-order Extraordinaries believe that he has not died, but has become a hidden deity. Prayer ceremonies are held in secret in the home in an attempt to gain great power. Of course, most of them did not receive a response, and occasionally some of them received a covert response, and the ending was very miserable. ”

"I've been studying it for years, but unfortunately I still don't have a clue, and from the recurring symbols at the beginning of every few lines, I can only roughly guess that it seems to be a diary. If you're interested, you can take it back and study it, and maybe you'll be able to find out something. ”
