"Chapter of Prayer?!"

Excited, excited, and apprehensive, Sherlock took the Kanazawa parchment from Herquin.

At the mere touch, Sherlock felt an indescribable and wonderful energy swirling through his fingers, like a torrent of alternating heat and cold, sweeping over his arms, over his body, over his neck and mind.

This feeling, like a damp and invisible mist, covering his body and mind, is very hazy and blurry, and even uncomfortable.

"Thank you very much, Your Excellency Hequin...... What should I do next? ......”

Sherlock suppressed the strangeness in his heart, thanked him, and asked again.

"The next way to pray, Reintes can teach you, don't worry."

Herquinn waved his hand and smiled, looking unimpressed.

"Alright, my mission is complete." Herquinn turned, and with dizzying speed, he cleaned up the two halves of the open box, then skillfully closed it and put it back in his hand.

Like a departing passenger, Herquin put on his yarke-hat, flicked his fingers in a dashing gesture of farewell, and walked away.

Sherlock didn't expect the senior deacon to come as soon as he said he would, and he would leave as soon as he said it, so vigorously and resolutely, he hurried to catch up and say goodbye.

But Herquin's footsteps suddenly stopped, and Sherlock nearly crashed into him.

"I heard that you got into trouble with the alien-cursed transcendents and then became the only survivor? Survived? ”

Herquinn looked back, her falcon-like eyes staring at Sherlock.

Sherlock nodded a little stunned, understanding that Herquinn was talking about Malfoy.

"Interesting!"

Herquinn let out a hoarse laugh, "You're also the only one who has passed the 'Seraphic Emblem' test in just one minute. ”

"Generally speaking, the test should be more than an hour or three hours long, and it will expose many human flaws. But obviously, the emblem is very lenient with you! ”

The corners of Herquin's mouth twitched, revealing an incomprehensible smile: "I have to say, you are a very lucky little guy." You've even picked the 'Secret Mirror' essentia, which is a very, very, fun choice! ”

"Alright, look forward to seeing you next time. Congratulations on entering the transcendent world! ”

Herquinn turned and waved, his steps staggered, and a moment later he was gone.

Sherlock stood in the doorway, a little dazed, pondering what Herquinn had said.

Is it just luck? Or does he know something...... Or is the choice of "Secret Mirror" related to luck? An unexpected and reasonable choice?

Sherlock was pondering, and Reintes behind him said:

"His Excellency Herquin is one of the thirteen senior deacons of the All-Knowing Annon Church. He is also the temporary vicar of the Archdiocese of Birzinham, and the 5th rank of the 'Mystery Terminal' 'Pastoral Man'. It's our direct boss of the Orderly. ”

"I was surprised that he was able to come and test you personally. But this result shows that he is kind to you and cares. That's a good sign, Sherlock, and you should be happy. ”

Happy, of course I'm happy, and I hope luck doesn't stop...... Sherlock turned around, bowed to Reintes and thanked him:

"Thank you very much for your help, Captain!"

"Alright, let's finish the final discussion. Quite simply, you don't have to worry about anything anymore. When you get the Prayer Chapter, you're almost done. ”

Reintes smiled and nodded, motioning for Sherlock to sit down.

"In the first age of antiquity, after the 'primordial God' issued the first oracle and gave birth to the 'Old Testament Apocalypse', that historical transcendence was promoted by devouring instinctual weights."

"But in the Second Age, the War of the Gods ended, the awakened god of the gods, the 'original Creator,' changed the oracle, the Old Testament was abandoned, and the 'New Testament Apocalypse' was born. From then on, the transcendent in history was promoted by means of prayer materials. ”

Of course, the history of these myths is extremely complex and requires a lot of information to verify. If you want to, find time to research it. Just remember not to indulge! ”

Reintes spoke slowly, rubbing his brow with his fingers, and then said:

"To this day, all known orthodox churches, as well as orthodox transcendent organizations, follow the guidance of the 'New Testament Revelation' and ascend to the transcendent rank through prayer materials."

"The chapter of prayer in your hand is the chapter of ritual formed by the fusion of ingredients and formulas. It's also very simple to use, hold the passage with both hands, and touch the essentia mimetic pattern on the passage with your left and right fingers, and you will get a prayer. ”

"Pray the words of prayer in your heart, and you'll get a hint of promotion."

After Reintes finished speaking, he reassured:

"The 9th rank is the most common starting rank, and you can pass the promotion very quickly, just do it according to the way, and you don't have to think too much."

Sherlock was already calm, and through Herquinn and Reintes' repeated words, it was very ordinary and simple, and he didn't have many distractions.

All right...... Sherlock took a deep breath and solemnly held the dark gold parchment in both hands, while the intricate pattern of his left and right fingers reaching out to the center point.

In the blink of an eye, the hazy and vague mist that had been "covered" over Sherlock's body and mind before was immediately like a catharsis.

A large number of looming whispers rang in Sherlock's ears:

“...... Dust from the dark forest...... A hint of supplication from the dust...... What is the cause of fate...... What is the reason for the shambles...... Roaming & Exploration, Chaos & Variables...... I am the symbol of destiny and the source of endless prophets......"

This whisper, sometimes clear, sometimes frenzied, sometimes invading the heart, Sherlock repeatedly disappeared into confusion, but finally wrote it all down.

According to Rheintes' guidance, this should be what is called the word of prayer.

Sherlock no longer hesitated, and immediately chanted silently in his heart.

With the end of the last syllable –

Burst!

The parchment prayer chapter that Sherlock held in his hand was gone.

Meanwhile!

In Sherlock's mental consciousness, another clear voice sounded:

"Want to know fate? Let's roll the dice......"

"Want to open the door to the unknown? Create the key to fortune......"

The sound came and went as fast as it came, and it ended in an instant, like lightning vanishing.

"How? How does it feel? ”

Rheintes' words rang out.

Sherlock slowly opened his eyes.

The moment he regained his sight and everything came into view, Sherlock felt that the environment he could see seemed to have changed in some way indescribably.

The image of Rheintes in front of him has become clearer and more natural, like a delicate painting, and any subtleties can be seen very clearly.

And in the whole room, all the hidden corners, all the crevices, and even behind every household item, there are more spots and shadows, and there is a more intuitive and clear appearance.

"Like...... I can see it more clearly...... A little more color and something I don't know......"

Sherlock spoke awkwardly, speaking of his first reflection.

Is this what it feels like to be promoted to transcendence?

But there seems to be no change in the body...... In addition to the line of sight......

Well, my sense of hearing seems to be sharper, and I can hear the behavior of the grass, trees, and small animals outside the house clearly......

"It's the result of your multiplying inspiration after you've just been promoted to Transcendental."

Reintes smiled and said in a relaxed tone:

"But it won't last long, and it will soon be back to the way it was. Inspiration is the wonderful power that every transcendent promotion must have. But each essentia is transcendent, and the degree of deepening of inspiration is different. ”

"Inspiration means that you can see the 'spirit' that mortals can't see!"

"All spirits come from the underworld, in which creation is transformed. Only the transcendent can spy on the 'spirit', decipher the 'spirit', and track the 'spirit', which is a necessary power. It also means that you have become extraordinary, congratulations, Sherlock! ”

Sherlock wanted to express his gratitude and nodded, but his body was a little out of control.

He tried to stand up, but found that he was a little crooked and groggy, as if he was drunk, and although he could stand, his surroundings were shaking.

"You've just been promoted, and that's how it should be, and it's going to disappear soon."

Reintes just looked at Sherlock with a smile and waited for him to return to normal.

"Hoo ......"

"Then I'm already a 9th-rank 'apprentice'?"

"Finally become extraordinary...... But what magical skills are there...... What do you mean by the dice rolls and trick keys you just heard? Does it represent my abilities? ”

Sherlock tried to walk slowly, regaining control of his body as he pondered the subtle changes in himself.

Well?!

Out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the background at Rheintes' feet, as if there was a dark afterimage.

The afterimage was distorted, like a black rusted blade, but as it wriggled, the black blade resembled a spiked water monster tentacle, hideous and terrifying.

Sherlock was startled and looked up at Reintes.

But with this movement, the dark and distorted afterimage had disappeared without a trace, as if it had never appeared.

"Captain, I see ......," Sherlock said again.

"Well, what do you see?" Reintes asked.

"Well, it seems like a black shadow, at your feet, but it's gone, gone...... Maybe something else is affecting the view......

Sherlock smiled uncertainly.

"Oh, maybe it's just your delusion."

Reintes waved his hand indifferently, and then said seriously:

"You are already extraordinary, but I don't know much about the extraordinary abilities of the 'Apprentice' of the 9th rank of the 'Secret Mirror of Fortune', which requires you to grope for advancement."

"As for the whole department of occultism that can be studied and studied, if you don't understand it, you can ask me in the future, or Rooney, Origan, Van Tucker, they can do."

"Under your permission, there are also some materials that can be read, and you can go to the office area on the basement to check them out."
