Chapter 25: Defending Against Evil
Boom.
With the sound of the pages turning, Jason began to recognize the words at the beginning of the new page as before, which was very laborious for Jason, whose [Tufuyu] level was only basic.
Word-for-word reading is basic.
And in order to be able to read better, he points to almost every word with the tip of his index finger to read.
This time was no exception.
However, when Jason's index finger pressed on the page, a faint light lit up from the page.
Radiance, mildness, and toughness.
Before Jason could react, he shrouded Jason in it.
Jason felt like a breeze on his face.
However, the next moment-
Yes!
A terrible scream that existed only in Jason's ears appeared.
The scream was so sharp that it was impossible to describe in words, as if a real steel needle had pierced Jason's eardrum.
In fact, Jason's condition is even worse than expected.
The moment the screams appeared, his whole body trembled, and an unprecedented pain collapsed from his body, and then there was a burst of warmth in his nose and mouth, and blood spurted out directly.
Especially the viscera, as he breathes, he can feel pain.
But Jason didn't care about any of this, his eyes were fixed on his body, and a dark shadow was slowly pulling out of his body, and the black shadow was struggling.
Every struggle made Jason feel a knife pain in his abdomen.
Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, down his cheeks, and dripped to the ground.
Jason gritted his teeth to keep himself from exhaling in pain.
He just stared at it, watching the black shadow pull away from him little by little, and then in the light, like ice and snow under the scorching sun, quickly dissipated.
This process lasted about three seconds or so.
When the dark shadow completely dissipated and the light dissipated, an unprecedented state of relief appeared on Jason.
Jason could clearly feel that the feeling of oppression and tension that followed him also dissipated.
Then a wave of realization came to mind.
When I was in the Moon Mask just now, I wasn't completely detached!
I've been targeted!
It's just that......
I just don't know!
Suddenly, Jason couldn't help but think back to the group of corpses staring at him and smiling in unison.
Suddenly, my heart was cold.
Because, he knew very well that if he allowed the state just now to develop, he would probably become one of those corpses!
Unable to help but clench the book in his hand more and more.
Once again, this book saved him!
Or rather, 'his teacher' anticipated what might happen and made the proper arrangements.
Subconsciously, Jason lowered his head and looked at the book in his hand.
At this time, he suddenly found that on the side of the original text, four lines of text appeared:
'Jason, my apprentice, I am glad when you see these lines, because it proves that you are still you. ’
'Just in case, I suggest you learn the Night's Watch trick that is recorded here. I'm sorry, I should have instructed you personally, however, something happened and I had to deal with it myself. ’
'Sorry again that I can't tell you more, but I promise I'll let you know the details when we meet again. ’
'May you keep watch in the night, may you be in darkness, may there be light in your heart—your teacher, the night watchman. Dan'
Writing is written in the lingua franca.
The last sentence carries a certain wish.
After a few moments, the words disappeared without a trace.
Jason wasn't surprised.
What's even more amazing is that he has just encountered it, this kind of trick similar to invisible ink is really pediatric.
Of course, it could also be a profound technique that he couldn't understand.
But in any case, Jason breathed a sigh of relief.
The most important hurdle of his role as a false 'heir' has been passed.
Even if they meet later, he behaves abnormally and has room to turn around.
However, Jason didn't think much about those things at the moment.
He was more concerned with the 'Night's Watch Technique' recorded in the book in front of him
"Anti-...... Protect...... Evil...... Night's watchman...... French ...... Able to prevent ...... A certain level of ...... Evil Strikes...... How to use...... Statement Combination ...... Mudra ......"
Compared with the explanation of the monster's nouns, Jason can also make guesses based on his own personal experience and deduce the meaning of the words, and at this moment, in the face of completely unfamiliar words about 'protecting against evil', Jason couldn't help frowning.
It's so hard to understand!
He tried his best to guess at each other's connections and barely understood the meaning of some of the words in the 'sentence combination', but the combination of the sentences before and after became completely incoherent.
As for the remaining part?
That is, completely incomprehensible.
"The level of Tufu is too low."
"In order to fully parse this text that records 'protection against evil', you need at least an introductory level."
Jason thought as he rubbed his swollen temples.
It's too difficult to rely on the basic level of [Tufuyu] to read.
Not only is it inefficient, but it is also extremely draining.
Coupled with the injury he had just received, Jason felt as if he had stayed up all night continuously, and his body was about to be hollowed out and unconscious at any time.
Therefore, Jason simply put down the book in his hand and lifted the lid.
The scales are removed, cut into boxy pieces, and in the boiling water, they become firm, and the lean meat becomes more and more bright red, and the white meat has a layer of crystal transparency, and it is even more layered after the mouth.
The only downside is that there is no more seasoning.
Otherwise, grilling is the best choice.
Of course, that didn't stop Jason from sweeping up all the food.
[Devour the Tungsten Greyhound!] 】
[Minor recovery from injuries X3!] 】
【Satiety +2X3】
[Satiety: 6]
……
It's better than 'Laugher' and 'Trickster', but inferior to 'Submariner'!
Without hesitation, Jason chose to consume 2 points of satiety to upgrade [Picture Complex Language].
[Tufu language (passive) (beginner): Tufu language is an ancient language, it is only circulated in the hidden organization and mysterious forces, it is rumored that it has been combined accordingly, with the ritual, will produce incredible effects, but these are still a little far away from you, you just have mastered its introductory knowledge, at this level of you, reading is not difficult, but for some rare words still need to be considered for a long time. 】
……
Another time a mixed knowledge poured into my mind.
This time, it's much longer than the previous base time.
A full three seconds.
Jason believes that if he hadn't just relied on 'food' to complete the two incidental treatments and one physical recovery, he would have been unconscious at this time.
However, when all this was over, Jason looked at the notes in his hand, but the corners of his mouth curled up and a smile appeared.
He was able to read very easily.
Everything that was difficult to understand just now has become simple and easy at this time.
And the next scene made Jason's smile even brighter.
[Discover the skill 'Defend against Evil', determine that the skill map compound has reached the entry level, yes/or not consume 3 points of satiety to learn?] 】
……
An unexpected surprise.
Jason didn't expect that this notebook would unexpectedly not only allow him to learn [Tufu Language] directly, but also be able to learn other skills.
Although the cost of [Protecting Against Evil] is far higher than other skills, what is there to hesitate at this time?
Jason immediately replied in the affirmative:
"Yes!"
