Chapter 41: Pen Workshop
[PS: As the title, I wrote it before, I'm very sorry, it's been modified.] γ
β¦β¦
Time passed quickly, and the mental exhaustion became more and more obvious.
Even with the bonus of villager Toko, Su Xian's soul strength was not much stronger than Dimon's.
When he felt that he was about to lose his support, he immediately stood up and killed Dumon with a sword.
Whatever happened to him in life, he died silently.
β¦β¦
Light the fire, go downstairs, and leave.
The flames will eventually be extinguished by heavy rain, but some traces will be removed.
Su Xian seemed to be used to setting fires, and he didn't even look back at the burning house when he left.
"Next, go to Dimon's place of residence."
Dumont's home is unexpectedly not far from here, less than a quarter of an hour's walk away.
By the time he reached his residence, the rainstorm had finally shown signs of abating.
The rain curtain hangs, and the sparsely populated area is silent, with not a single light in sight.
He lowered the brim of his hat and walked briskly, finally finding Dumont's house in a deep alley.
It wasn't a palatial villa, but an ordinary-looking house.
Dumont came to the city of Brut from the royal capital, and he had come secretly in the first place, and it was impossible to attract attention for the sake of enjoyment, and he was already past the age of coveting enjoyment.
In addition to having a youthful attachment to women because of his physical defects, he no longer cares so much about other external pleasures.
Su Xian pushed open the small door on the fence, stepped on the muddy ground, and walked to the front door of the house.
Then he pulled out the key he had retrieved from Dimon and opened the door.
After grinding the mud off the soles of his shoes on the doormat, he entered the room, and without turning on the light, went straight to the second floor.
The house is two and a half floors, and although it has an old appearance, it is quite elegantly furnished on the inside.
Looking left and right, he first came to the room on the left, and pushed the door in.
It's not a bedroom, it's a warehouse with miscellaneous items.
But it's also one of the destinations.
He pushed aside the clutter from the warehouse, entered the warehouse, and pulled out a large crate with a completely polished surface from under a pile of heavy objects in the corner.
The box was heavy and stuffed with all kinds of newspapers and magazines, but when you removed all the newspapers and magazines on the upper floor, you could find a smaller black box hidden inside.
When I took out the black box and opened it again, I could see a black cloth wrap mixed with many old toys.
Then take out the black cloth wrap and open it.
Finally, a rather delicate-looking box came into view.
The box was extremely luxurious, with a lock on the outside.
Su Xian took out the key, opened the box, and finally saw the valuable book lying on the golden flannel.
It was the Book of the Gospels, and the Morgan family had forbidden things that had been handed down for generations for no apparent number of years.
β¦β¦
"In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth, and the earth was empty and chaotic, and the deep face was dark, and the Spirit of God hovered over the waters. God said, "Let there be light, and there was light." God saw that light was good, and He separated light from darkness. God called the light day and the darkness night. There was evening and there was morning, and it was the first day......"
After entering, the sound of the dark came to my ears that was exactly the same as when I came into contact with "δΈ".
"The Bible, the Old Testament, and the Book of Genesis, this book really comes out of the same origin as the character and the seven evil gods, and even the description is the same."
He pressed his hand on the center of his eyebrows, lit up the emblem, and looked at it with the help of the light of the emblem.
The cover of the Book of the Gospels is black, and the title is written in unfamiliar white script.
This is not a type of writing that is composed of the permutations of letters, nor is it a hieroglyph that resembles Chinese characters.
Every word in it is pieced together with strange symbols.
Unfortunately, Mark doesn't have a writing system in his memory.
If you want to translate the Chinese characters correctly, it's a very good idea to ask Professor Buck for help, provided that Professor Buck never takes off his mask.
β¦β¦
And below the title of the book, a circular circle is depicted.
The circle is a symbol of perfection, and almost every circle is framed by a circle-based outer ring, and the circles in this book are no exception.
Ignoring the dense runes on this circle, its overall structure is much more complex than that of a god's emblem.
The first is the outer ring, which is inlaid with a regular heptagon, and then a regular seven-pointed star is inlaid inside the regular heptagon, and then there is a regular heptagon inside the heptagram, and then a pentagram representing the central body.
It looks like the Amis Talisman, but it's not.
On each corner of the seven-pointed star, there is a rune that clearly represents a number.
In that order, they are "l", "ll", "lll", "llll", "one", "δΈ ", and "δΈ".
"It's ......"
Su Xian suddenly frowned, and groped for a while on the "δΈΈ" with his fingertips.
Sure enough, there was a dim spot of light on the text of this "δΈ". β
"I thought that the Book of the Gospels only recorded the sacrifice and summoning of the seven trumpets of the evil gods, but now it seems that this is not the case."
"God created the world in seven days, and there is no reason why evil gods were born only on the seventh day. Now it seems that there should be still sixth, fifth, fourth... And even the number one. β
He had little interest in the Gospel Book, but when he realized it, he suddenly became interested.
"If all the number runes on these seven corners were lit up, would there be some wonderful changes? For example, to awaken or summon the God who claims to be the seven-day creator? β
"Something ...... interesting"
In his thoughts, he opened the Gospel and found a piece of parchment sandwiched between them.
This parchment depicts the formation diagram of β+β³.
Originally, this parchment was the main purpose of his trip.
The moment he touched the parchment, a familiar whisper sounded in his ears.
"Sacrifice to God, sacrifice to God...... Rarity is value, a sacrifice to God...... Offer a sacrifice to God, and God will give you back and give you favor. The rarer it is, the more ...... the favor of God will be."
It is genuine.
Su Xian couldn't help but smile.
On the seventh day of inheriting the emblem, he finally got his second piece of parchment!
At the same time, it was confirmed that there was indeed more than one parchment.
Without hesitation, he grabbed the parchment in his hand and shone it with the emblem of God.
Under the illumination of the emblem, a flame suddenly burst into flames in the corner of the parchment.
It is the fire of time, the fire of space, and the fire of fate.
When an entire sheet of parchment burns out, the last bit of spark remains.
It circled in the air, leaving a trail of stars.
Su Xian's gaze followed it as it moved, and suddenly his pupils shrank, and he saw it hit it head-on, crashing into his field of vision.
After an instant, that little spark merged into the divine emblem.
He could clearly feel that there was a little more indescribable nature in his soul, and the strength of his soul had also increased, and the corresponding spiritual power would inevitably increase.
The exhaustion that had previously taken over Dimon's soul was suddenly gone.
He closed his eyes and felt his whole body sublimated.
When he opened his eyes again, he was no longer in the warehouse.
β¦β¦
Stagnant in time.
He stood high in the sky, overlooking the earth.
In his vision, the dense and infinite tombstones told him that he had once again entered the graveyard of the gods.
After a moment of contemplation in the air, his body began to fall.
This is not something he can control, it seems to be the guidance of fate.
On the way down, he suddenly saw a huge tombstone shaking in front of his vision.
Although the size of the tombstone is far less than that of "Luo β", it is also much larger than the surrounding tombstones.
It is like a crane standing in the middle of a flock of chickens, and it is extremely conspicuous.
Looking harder, there are three lines of inscriptions carved on the tombstone.
In order:
The hegemon of the seas
Performer of the Storm
Ruler of the stars
β¦β¦
Three juxtaposed descriptions point to the name of a god.
But this god, apparently, did not have the courage of Luo β, and did not reveal even a trace of his true name.
β¦β¦
The tombstone was still shaking, as if the god of the ground was struggling.
It has awakened, but it has not risen from the chaos.
β¦β¦
Su Xian is still landing.
When he got his feet on the ground, he suddenly came back to his senses, only to find that he was back in the warehouse.
"A God who has awakened!"
β¦β¦
The emblem dimmed, and darkness returned.
The interior of the unlit house is very dark, and you can barely see, and it is so quiet that it makes people feel furious.
Su Xian summoned the "Luo β's Card Album", took a photo of the "Gospel Book", and included it in the card album.

"Is an information card an item that records information?"
Su Xian rubbed his temples, and after taking a few deep breaths, he turned around and walked to the bedroom next door.
He pushed open the bedroom door, walked straight to the closet next to the bed, and opened it.
There are quite a few clothes hanging in the closet, and at least ten pairs of shoes are placed underneath, and thick blankets are placed underneath the shoes.
He picked up the corner of the blanket and carefully lifted it, revealing a black book hidden underneath.
This black book, which Dimon received from the old man with a hooked nose, is known as the "Book of Night Ravens".
The feather on the pen in the book is "Night Raven's Feather".
And those who have the black book automatically join an extremely secretive organization by default, and the name of this organization is called "Pen Research Society".
It's a very simple name, and it doesn't seem to have anything to do with any weirdness, but it's very much in line with the founding purpose of this organization - every member of the organization is a pen pal, and only a pen pal.
Dimon joined this organization about half a year ago, and after joining this organization, he basically maintained a monthly rate of sacrifice to the evil god seven.
But this organization was obviously founded half a year ago, and it is known that there are very few members of the "Pen Research Society", and there is only one main creator, that is, the hunchbacked old man with a hooked nose.
The old man rarely speaks in the Book of Night Ravens, and members of the Order are accustomed to referring to him as "Night Ravens".
With the exception of the Night Raven Old Man, the rest of the Pen Research Society is largely unaware of their true identities, and they refer to themselves as "pen names", and communicate in writing through the "Night Raven Book", occasionally exchanging useful information.
On the surface, it's a peaceful organization.
- Except that every member of the team is transcendent.
Perhaps because he was worried that his true identity would be speculated on through words, the members of the pen research committee were not very active, and only spoke when necessary, and most of them had "private chats" with others.
Dimont has been in the organization for half a year, and there are only a handful of people he has communicated with, and there is only one pen pal who has chatted privately, "Curse Moon".
β¦β¦
Su Xian reached out and took the "Book of Night Crows" out of the closet.
Then he stood in place for a while, and then took a photo of the card album and included this "Book of Night Ravens" in the card album.
β¦β¦
"The night has clouded my eyes, and it is the cry of the night crow that has guided me out of my path."

After glancing at the card description.
He used his bookmark to make sure there were no rare items in the house, and he chose to leave quickly.
The night is dark, and it is not advisable to stay here for a long time.
