Chapter 40: Usain Bolt's Diary

The entrance to the sewers is in the outer city, and it is the first time that Roddy has gone deep into this city, although he has been observing the periphery for a while when he first came to Kotar City, he did not expect that they were just the tip of the iceberg.

It's a world away from downtown.

Hepburn put on her hood, and Roddy, although he was wearing ordinary clothes, was clean, and clean meant that he didn't belong here, so all kinds of eyes focused on him.

There are ill-intentioned and urgent, and Hepburn knows this, so he quickens the pace.

After walking about two hundred meters through a ruined square, Hepburn led Roddy to the outer walls of Kotar City, where the entrance to the abandoned sewers was located.

It wasn't until he entered that Roddy discovered that the abandoned sewers were not deserted, but that they were also inhabited by people who had settled in pipes less than four meters wide and three meters high, and that the old furniture had been delicately arranged according to each of their preferences, like a complete home.

They are much kinder than the people on the ground, they don't have a look of color, they greet you softly, they are just as cheap, they are everywhere, but they are clean, almost everyone is like that.

Roddy could see that under the oppression of life, they still retained their expectations of life.

But it still gave him quite a shock.

Hepburn and her teacher lived farther away from here, quieter and deeper.

Perhaps it's because the abandoned sewer is inhabited, there is no garbage, no smell, just a little damp.

"It's impossible to imagine that so many people live here. Roddy sighed.

Hepburn responded to Roddy with a smile carrying a kerosene lamp he had borrowed from a resident.

"Most of them have jobs that are just enough to support their lives, and if you live here for a while, you will find that it is a place that quiets you, that you avoid the noise of the earth, and that there is more kindness than suspicion between people. ”

Roddy nodded thoughtfully, observed the sewers in the dim light, and silently memorized the route in his mind.

At a fork in the road, Hepburn cautiously stopped, stretched out his head and put his hand to his ear, and said:

"Follow me. ”

Roddy immediately followed, keeping the same vigilance, and turned right through the fork and walked another distance of about five hundred meters to the place where Hepburn and her teacher had been living temporarily.

As Roddy expected, it was much cleaner, and the furniture was less but more organized, just like Dai's living room.

Hepburn seemed very familiar with such a living environment, and she skillfully lit other kerosene lamps and made a bitter cup of tea for Roddy, while she pulled out a diary from her desk.

"This is the diary left by the teacher, you can borrow it but you have to be here. ”

Roddy nodded, reaching out for the diary.

From the diary, Roddy learned the name of the soothsayer, Bolt, whose hometown is in a town called Campbella in the Ins Empire, because he was involved in an extraordinary case that led to the death of all his relatives, and he was taken in by an extraordinary person.

The deck of cards was also stolen from the Extraordinary, but Bolt did not record any information about the Extraordinary, and even the diary written during the time he was taken in only described the time and weather.

Although the diary does not describe much, it still vaguely reveals the world of the extraordinary, and Roddy can conclude that Bolt is indeed an extraordinary.

What made him curious was why he had to flee when there was an extraordinary one who took him in and guided him, and if that deck of fate cards were the same as he guessed, the extraordinary one must not be an ordinary character, and how could Bolt steal it.

Roddy continued to look at it with doubts, and then his face was a little strange.

"Today I was lucky to meet a silly boy, a penny of bread was not Hepburn's favorite food, but sevenpence was enough to change Hepburn's futon. ”

Although this paragraph made Roddy want to scold people very much, between the lines was full of concern for Hepburn, which made Roddy have a little change in his opinion of this walking liar.

Roddy shook his head with a smirk and continued to read, his expression becoming more and more solemn as he read, and Bolt may have used the diary as a research record of his thoughts on the forty-three cards of fate.

What forced Roddy to be cautious was that his speculation about Destiny Solitaire came true, and it was indeed a deck of cards made up of each class of the extraordinary sequence corresponding to the Seven Gods, but Bolt didn't explicitly describe all of the class names.

However, it is not undocumented at all, and it describes the sequence that represents the god of dawn.

The journal only describes the names of the first three classes of the sequence, the names of Rank 1 and Rank 2, Roddy already knows something about in a book on loan from Catherine, but only records some of the abilities of Rank 1, while Bolt's diary describes the abilities of these three classes in detail

The first rank is a guardian, with the basic ability to dream, and at the same time has the ability to strengthen the local body, and this ability is called guardian, which made Roddy think of the basic ability of the "Berserker" series mastered in the Forsaken Land for the first time, and it can also be strengthened locally.

"Is it the same sequence or just the same effect?"

Roddy muttered to himself, realizing that the Forsaken might be more important than he thought.

The second rank is called the Substitute, and there is no change in ability from the guardian of the first rank, only an increase in strength, but the third rank makes Luo Di frown.

The third rank is called the Arsonist, a very abrupt name, and the ability to dream and strengthen the body has also been strengthened, but the extra ability is a bit unbelievable, this ability is called ignition, and it can only ignite flammable materials, such as kerosene lamps.

"It's unbelievably weak..."

Roddy found that Bolt was as full of questions as he was.

"But this ability is quite in line with the name. ”

Roddy complained and continued to scroll down, only to find that the diary had come to an end, which made him feel unusually uncomfortable like a fish in his throat, as if the movie had just entered the climax and the power suddenly went out.

"Is that all there is to it?"

Roddy looked at Hepburn expectantly, and Hepburn nodded as expected.

"Yes. ”

Roddy closed the diary in disappointment and returned it to Hepburn, reassuring himself that at least he hadn't found nothing.

Hepburn put the diary back as it was, and said suddenly.

"You're not very surprised by the contents of the diary. ”

"You're talking about the extraordinary?"

"Hmm. Hepburn nodded.

"Hmm," Roddy groaned for a moment, and said honestly:

"I learned about the existence of the Extraordinary for a long time, and it came from an accident that caused me to lose my father. ”

Hepburn opened his mouth and apologized.

"I'm sorry..."

Roddy hurriedly waved his hand to show that he didn't mind, in fact, he cared more about Pais's approach and what was hidden, you must know that this directly led to the death of the real Roddy.

Hepburn continued apologetically:

"People who have been exposed to the extraordinary will always come into contact with the extraordinary for one reason or another, and then set foot on the extraordinary. ”
