Chapter 11: Occult Knowledge
The journey was all the rage, and since it was almost noon, it was still summer, and Barry found it a foolish thing to run home. When I went, the temperature was not high, and I exercised in the morning, but when I came back, it was hot and sweaty.
When I finally arrived at the door, I looked down at Huck on the side, this dog was not tired at all, and he didn't even stick out his tongue to dissipate heat, he really deserved to be an extraordinary dog.
The doorbell rang, and in a short time Mrs. Celine came out and let the man and dog into the house.
"Little Barry, why are you sweating so much, you just got out of the hospital, even if you exercise, you have to know the truth that you can't do it, now go take a shower first, and come back just in time for lunch."
Mrs. Celine counted Barry down for a moment, and then went to prepare lunch, looking at her slowly busy figure, Barry suddenly felt a little hungry, and couldn't help but look forward to lunch for a while.
Walking through the door, Huck walked straight to the kennel, intending to put away his baby frisbee first, and as for Barry, he listened to Mrs. Celine and took a good bath, after all, his body was not very slimy.
After rubbing his body in the bathroom, he went back to the room to change into new clothes, looking at Mrs. Celine who was still busy in the kitchen, Barry planned to wash the changed clothes himself to reduce a little trouble for Mrs. Celine, after all, it was a very simple matter.
With a simple scrubbing, twisting his hands a little harder, the sweaty clothes became clean and tidy, and they were taken to the backyard to hang on the drying rack, and Barry heard the doorbell.
Mr. Ronald would come back every day at noon to eat and take a nap, and today was no exception, and by the time Barry walked back into the house, Mr. Ronald was already sitting at the table.
Seeing that Ronald served the table directly, and didn't even plan to wash his hands, Mrs. Celine immediately blamed and said: "How many times have you said, wash your hands before eating, even if you know how to eat, you must do your own hygiene"
"Wow, this is snowflake rabbit broth today, it smells so good."
Barry tasted the soup in front of him, it was delicious, and Barry could only say such blunt words about the barren vocabulary of food.
I tried to eat a few pieces of rabbit meat again, and it really melted in my mouth, and the strong flavor continued to impact my taste buds, and a sense of happiness greeted me. Before he knew it, the bowl of food in front of him was empty, and Barry's stomach was full.
Lying comfortably in the chair, he turned his head and saw Huck who was also working hard, this guy had already smelled the smell and came over.
"It's just so that I can save it and I'm going to bring you food again." Barry thought to himself as he looked at Huck as he struggled with food.
Facing the Ronalds, who were still eating, Barry got up and said, "I'll go upstairs and take a rest, I'm so full that I don't want to move at all." ”
Walking back to his nest, he was going to study the blood essence beads and read "The Legend of Adrian's Knights", but the strong feeling of satiety made Barry give up, and just because he didn't get up early and didn't get enough sleep, Barry took off his shoes and fell asleep on the bed.
By the time Barry opened his eyes again, it was already two hours later, and with a freshen up, a spirited young man had reappeared in the world.
"Reading, reading, studying, studying, this is what a normal teenager should do."
Barry said something to amuse himself, but his body took the "Biography of the Knights of Adrian" from the shelf, intending to take a good look at the book to see if there were any hidden surprises in the book.
An afternoon of careful reading,Barry has a little understanding of this knight's biography,In addition to the praise of the various protagonists in it,Barry's deepest impression of the inside is all kinds of monsters,The description is very detailed,Barry uses the spirit of up to 1.7,As if you can see the real monsters in the book。
When Barry closes the last page of the book, a system notification appears in front of him again [Read a book with a little mystical knowledge to obtain skill: occult knowledge lv1].
Here's another line of words, which is a detailed description of this skill.
[Occult Knowledge lv1: The most basic occult knowledge, this is the knowledge of ordinary monster illustrated books or simple rituals]
After acquiring this skill, Barry revisited the monsters and magic rituals written in the book, and found that he could easily distinguish which one was true and which one was false, and the true and false descriptions in the whole book were about one to three, so Barry did not gain much knowledge, and he was still a novice in the transcendent world, but he only knew some basic knowledge.
With Mrs. Celine's reminder, Barry went downstairs to have dinner, and after filling his stomach normally, Barry set his sights on the Blood Essence Bead, after all, this is the transcendent item that he just obtained today.
As the two blood beads were thrown into the mouth, I felt a burst of heat appear in the abdomen, and then with the blood swimming all over the body, making the whole body become lazy, very comfortable.
This improvement in physical fitness is not like the pain of having his head split in the morning, Barry guesses that maybe the improvement of physical fitness in the morning is just incidental, the real pain comes from the acquisition of knowledge, and the most important thing may be the inheritance of the badge.
Slowly the heat flow dissipated, and some impurities appeared on Barry's body, but it wasn't much, it seemed that the improvement this time was not too big, so thinking about it, Barry opened the panel, intending to see his exact attributes.
Name: [Barry, Adrian]
Occupation: [None]
Title: [None]
Strength: [1.3], Dexterity: [1.2], Constitution: [1.4], Spirit: [1.7]
Skill: [Fire Emblem Breathing Lv2] [Occult Knowledge Lv1]
Passive: [None]
XP: [50]
Compared with the previous attributes, the strength and agility have each increased by 0.1, and the physique and spirit have not changed much, Barry guessed that it may be that the power contained in the blood essence bead is too small, after all, the difference between the mouse and the human body is too big, even if it is an extraordinary mouse, the overall physical fitness is higher than that of ordinary people, and it is only in a small body size that it looks so powerful.
This is like the difference between a leopard and a cat, if the power of the leopard is condensed into the body of a domestic cat, then this cat may be able to fight lions and tigers, because the total amount remains the same, but the size is reduced, which means that the strength will be more concentrated, the muscles and skin will be tougher, and the harm will be greater.
These blood essences may be too weak for Huck, as its own blood contains more power than that. This may also be the reason why Huck didn't take it himself, but kept it as a trophy, but in the end it was cheaper for Barry.
Barry has also figured out where the experience points come from, and so far there are two ways to get access to occult knowledge, or to get some supernatural items that can improve themselves.
Barry gained ten experience points after reading "The Legend of Adrian Knights", and after taking two Blood Essence Beads, he also gained twenty experience points, which is also the source of Barry's analysis.
The previous Knight of Glory badge was changed to a Fire Emblem, which gave Barry some transcendent knowledge and breathing. It also improved Barry's physical fitness, so he would get fifty experience points at one time.
Looking at the fifty experience points left now, Barry doesn't plan to use it now, because to increase the Fire Emblem Breathing Method to lv3, it is only half enough.
As for improving the occult knowledge to lv2, Barry just experimented and directly asked for fifty experience points, which is not reluctant, and there is no need for it now, so let's save more experience points.
Due to the impurities on his body again, he had to take a shower again, but fortunately this time he was witty and did not wear a coat when taking the blood essence beads, otherwise he would have to wash his clothes.
"I took a shower three times a day, but I didn't expect me to become such a clean person."
Barry complained to himself, and then lay down on the bed and slowly fell asleep, not dreaming that night.
