201: Time at Silent Hill (2)
"Can cat people also use slate?" Lilim asked.
"Jessica is fine, Maya is fine." Faye said.
In this case, Marin also supports his little leopard girl to give it a try, anyway, the test doesn't cost money.
So Maya carefully stood in front of the newly replaced plastic stone slab and carefully pressed her hand.
"Seven points." Faye was the first to speak.
"Seven points, it's normal, Maya opened the psionic pool and became Saya's apprentice, her plastic energy affinity would be strange if there weren't seven points." Cross said.
Marin nodded and looked at Matilda, who walked to the side: "Seven, in fact, I thought it would be eight." ”
After all, after seeing his sister's lightning arrows, Marin thought that this girl's eight plastic energy was friendly.
Maya was encouraged by her brother to change to a slate.
"There's a ghost." Faye frowned, and she looked at Cross beside her: "I'll give five and a half points, what do you think." ”
"I give it a six, and I think it's about the same." Cross looked at Faye and replied, "The shaman also has at least six rings in curse techniques, and with Maya's talent, it is just enough for her to use all of them. ”
"I give six points too." Marin felt that his judgment was similar to that of Cross, as for Faye...... This girl's curse is not more than one, and she can judge that five and a half points is already a manifestation of academic hegemony.
Matilda wrote down the score on a piece of paper, then watched Maya walk towards the third slate: "How many points do you need for the shaman's auxiliary technique." ”
"I don't know, Cross, you know what." Marin asked.
"Seven points, shamans have seven rings of auxiliary techniques, individual shamans can get eight rings or even nine rings of legendary spells, up to nine points."
At this time, Maya's hand was placed on the third stone slab, and Marin looked at the sea of flowers in front of him and sighed: "Nine points." ”
"Nine and a half minutes." Putting down the scope she was holding, Cross looked at Lilim and smiled, "You've got an opponent, Lilim. ”
"I never knew that Maya would become so strong after passing through the Spiritual Energy of Enlightenment." Lilim spread her hands: "Faye, what about your score." ”
"At nine and a half minutes, I have a feeling that all of Maya's techniques will be at the highest point...... This is outrageous, isn't it hedging? Faye said with a frown.
"yes, but that's a human hedge." Cross turned her head to look at Faye: "There is no such thing as our orc's native profession, and human beings will have no problem as long as they choose generalist advancement, as for you...... Aren't you an elf. ”
"Ah, yes, I'm an elf." Faye slapped his palm on his forehead: "I forgot that I was an elven manifest hybrid. ”
"Marlin is a human dominant person, that's why Mr. Colin makes such a fuss, in fact, he is not a human either." After Closse finished speaking, she turned to look at Marin: "Mr. Marin, what do you think of the points." ”
"Nine-and-a-half." Marin lamented, "I never knew that my sister was better than me in terms of technique. ”
"That's because the Great Woodland has a ritual of cultivating spiritual energy, and if there is no ceremony, the affinity of the orc's technique is very low." Faye said as he looked at Maya, who had already pressed her hand on the fourth slate: "This time it's a little lower, only five points. ”
"I'm also a five, but the shaman's protection techniques are very few, and at most there are only four rings." Cross added.
“…… Matilda, record, five. Marin smiled at his sister: "Come, go on." ”
"Brother." Before pressing the fifth slate, Maya looked at Marin with some unease: "I...... Isn't it amazing. ”
"Yes, Maya is very powerful, and she will definitely become a very great shaman in the future." Marin smiled and nodded.
"But I don't want to be stronger, if I let that god named Mina know, maybe she will want to take me again, I don't want to go." With that, the little leopard withdrew his hand behind his back.
Faye and Cross put down their scopes, they waited for Marin's answer, and Marin finally put it down: "Okay, then we'll not do it, Matilda, tear this page and the next two pages, and score them in the order of five, four, six, three, two, and four." ”
"No problem." Matilda tore off the paper in her hand and began to fake.
"I knew that you never let our sisters down, well, now the question is, Marlin, why would you take this potion for the second time." Faye walked over to Maya, gave the little leopard a haircut, and asked curiously.
"Hmm...... It smells a little very fragrant and tastes very sweet. Maya said.
"Huh? Jessica, you don't add sugar, do you? Marin walked over to the keg and poured a glass.
"How is it possible, this potion is still worthy of me by that parishioner, didn't you watch him match it." Jessica said a little unwillingly.
"Then I'll take a bite." Marin finished speaking, and he leaned his neck and took a sip.
Well, it's still that familiar taste, Ma Lin felt that his face had been wrinkled, and the bowl of Chinese medicine boiled by the old dean in his memory was almost like this.
At this moment, Marin seemed to see a kind old lady standing together and looking at him with a smile, and said - Marin, it's time to drink medicine.
Hey, shaking his head, Marin put down the cup and looked at his sister: "I declare that Maya's sense of taste has mutated in some way." ”
"Then what should we do now, the matter of the little ones is settled, it will take at least two days for the bloodline to be traced, is there anything that can be arranged?"
As Lilim and Maya and Jessica put away the slate, Cross looked at Marlin with some boredom.
Marin thought for a moment: "I have a show, let's go through the empty door." ”
The girls gave Marin a uniform and silent slap in the face.
At this time, the roar of a locomotive was heard in the distance of the street, Marin and the girls turned their heads, and saw that in the distance street, an antique car was speeding at a fast speed, it killed the direction as it entered this small square and began a perfect and heroic drift, the air was full of the smell of rubber, Marin watched the car finally stop at the edge of the square, close to the street, perfectly parked.
Mentor Emmet Selke stepped out of the open door, pulled a pair of sunglasses out of his collar pocket and put them on, then turned to his passengers.
The young, well-dressed man didn't look very good, but he was strong enough to open the car door and walk out, only to betray him with his vain steps.
The half-grown boy on the other side eventually climbed out, stood up against the wall, and then watched his companion and Emmetselke walk farther and farther away, and finally bowed his head and began to clear the inventory.
"I always thought that Marin was the only man in the world who could get in Mentor Emmett Selke's car and go around the city and get down on his own." Lilim watched this scene with emotion.
"It's not the same, Mr. Marin has steady steps, and I think he's almost floating." Cross said with some disdain for the young man, "But at least it's better than the half-sized boy, by the way, who are they?" ”
"Before Mentor Emmett Selke left, he said that he was going to pick up the investigator from the Central Province." Marin explained, noticing that Faye seemed a little unhappy: "What's wrong. ”
"I know that guy." Faye said subjectively.
"That one is a little floaty?" Cross asked, turning her head.
"No, it's the one who's throwing up, it's my cousin." Faye shook his head at this: "It's a very self-righteous guy. ”
"How self-righteous." Marin asked out of curiosity.
"He thinks he's the most handsome guy in the central province." Faye said as he held up the Recording Crystal.
Marin thought for a moment, and also took out his recording crystal.
The so-called grand event is said to be like this.
………………
Marin and the Faye cousin communicated an hour later, and this half-sized man finally solved the trouble he had encountered when he went to the inventory, because he went to take a bath, so he sat next to Marin in a bath robe, with a prostrationed expression, and turned his head to look at Marin: "You are Marin?" ”
"How can everyone know me?" Marin put down the finale of the Sherlock Holmes detective book in his hand and looked at this half-grown boy.
"My old man asked someone to take a picture of your appearance with a video crystal to show me, and told me that if I see you, no matter how angry you look, don't lose your gloves." The half-grown man turned his head to look at the girls who were happily barbecuing on the barbecue stove from the yard of an unknown household: "My cousin looks much happier than before." ”
"You really don't look like that." Marin glanced at him.
"Nonsense, I'm the human manifest, she's the elven manifest, we can look the same, do you know how many people are going to die." The half-grown man told a joke that only had dark humor, and then, like Marin, leaned back in the soft rocking chair: "The chair is good, your church." ”
"No, I took it from someone nearby." Marlin replied as he noticed that Lilim had returned with a handful of roast meat and carrots.
"Is that all you clergy!" The half-size boy looked a little unhappy.
"Then what can we do, when we go to seal the door, get some things back, but we have already put down the money, we can't starve to death." Marin gave him a blank look.
"Isn't there a store?" The half-sized boy didn't understand it at all, and he was still arguing with Marin.
"These grills were moved from the store manager's house, and he and his family were all killed in this incident, and we sealed his shop, warehouse, and two residences." After Marin finished speaking, he handed over the meat skewers handed by Lilim, and then took the meat skewers she handed over: "You haven't seen such a scene before in the Central Province." ”
Marin was in no mood to criticize him at all, this young man looked like a noble boy from the central province, but he was afraid that he had never seen the tragedy of spirits eating people, the entire Silent Hill had lost nearly sixty percent of the population, and there were no living people in the entire block, which was the norm, Marin and the girls now went out at six o'clock every morning to take over the work in the nearby neighborhood, and together with the parishioners, they sealed the doors of those houses where the whole family was killed.
These estates will be taken over by other branches of their families – and as to who will take over, this will be handed over to the secular authorities.
From the Middle Ages onwards, this was a very sacred work, and the Church with a true God was the only one suitable for this work – you say there is something missing? That's okay, the church members swore to God, the church members didn't take it, and the door sealing circle was not broken, then there was nothing missing, and there was no need to detect lies at all (there was no god of justice in the Middle Ages, let alone detecting lies)
Don't think that this oath doesn't matter, there is a church with the true God, and there is no difference between lying to the true God and seeking death.
The act of leaving money to take food and food-making utensils like Marin is also permissible, and all kinds of real estate and all kinds of gold and silver property are not allowed.
"Uh...... All dead? Sure enough, the half-grown man had no idea of this, and he looked in the direction of the Sanctuary, where his friend had been in for a while.
"The entire police station was so dead that only two neighborhood patrol officers remained." Lilim, who was sitting on Marlin's lap, said.
"The whole police station!" The half-grown boy turned brown as he watched Lilim stand up, "Aren't there any other survivors?!" ”
"Probably not, we collected them as survivors before, and told them to inform the police professionals to return to work sooner, but as of this morning, only two neighborhood patrol officers have come, and they are sorting out the neighborhood information." When Marin said this, he noticed that the kid's face had changed, and he motioned for Lilim to stand up, and then got up himself: "What's wrong." ”
"A week ago, an extremely dangerous strange object was just brought to Silent Hill and placed in the police station, because an operational unit of the Fourth Operations Section of the Special Investigation Section of our Royal Special Investigation Office was guarding it, no, I must warn, my friend is in, can you take me to meet him."
"No problem, but I can ask you how dangerous the strange thing you are talking about is." Marin immediately motioned for the Lilim to follow, but at the same time didn't care about the Lilim who followed.
Passing through the gate, the half-sized man uttered an answer that was bad news for Marin: "A harmful curiosity of strength 1." ”
Before Marin had the knowledge of strange things, he knew that there were two kinds of strange things, one was a strange thing made by the aborigines of this world, this kind of thing is safe, for example, Marin's World Tree Twig and Blood Roar, the World Tree Twig is strength 1, it is indeed very powerful, but because it is only for the undead and failed to enter the realm of strength 0, but everyone says that even if it is a weak undead, the twigs of the World Tree can cause full damage to it, Spells that use it as a casting tool can even ignore the opponent's immunity and resistance.
If the target is the undead, that's a well-deserved strength 0.
And the blood roar is strength 2, it is very sharp, it can cause real damage to chaos special effects, and it can cause real damage to the existence of the big demon level, and in other fields, it is just a very sharp axe that will not break.
Of course, with the help of Marin's World Tree Twigs, everyone in the church already thought that a Blood Roar with a twig as an axe handle could already be considered a strength 1 existence.
But there are also some problematic strange things in this world, such as legends polluted by chaos, or strange things that have self-consciousness and fall deeper and deeper in the realm of aberration, in fact, Mira is such a strange thing, she has self-awareness, but it is just a piece of armor, if it weren't for the little girl Vasp, she would have completely degenerated.
Even if it was such a dangerous thing, the bishops only gave a strength 2 positioning in the end.
The intensity of this kid's mouth is 1, what a terrifying way this has become.
"Wait a minute, will that thing move on its own?" Marin suddenly thought of something: "Where will it be placed?" ”
"It doesn't move, it's just a scroll, and the only problem is that someone has to watch it all the time...... If the person you're talking about is dead, you don't know what's going to happen in the next few days. The half-grown boy said.
"What's it called?" Lilim asked, "I've heard that harmful strange things have a name, so that people can feel their power more intuitively. ”
"Intensity 1, a harmful strange object, called the magic carpet, it is a living blanket, every week, it will freely weave a memory of a life that has appeared within ten kilometers around it as a picture, if no one has been paying attention to him, the people and animals in the picture will come out of the picture." Following behind Marin, the half-sized man spoke quickly.
Lilim's voice began to tremble: "Then what if there is a god or an evil god in this memory." ”
"After all, it is just a harmful strange thing with an intensity of 1, the greater it is, the lower the intensity, and even it can't project it, and the more mundane, the higher the intensity."
Hearing this, Marin stretched out his hand and pushed open the door in front of him, and looked at the bishops and the guests sitting inside: "We are in trouble, Your Excellency Bishops. ”
"We're in trouble, kid, but you can say it first." The old dwarf asked with a wry smile.
"An operational unit of the Fourth Operations Section of the Special Investigation Section of the Special Investigation Office of the Royal Family has brought a harmful strange object of strength 1 into Silent Hill a week ago, called the magic carpet, and placed it at the police station under special guard, and it has been a week." Marin said as he looked at the bishops in front of him.
"Zem! We must initiate the recycling process now! The half-grown man looked at his Shangguan and shouted.
"But we also have a trouble here, four days ago, the God of War Church just recovered a harmful strange object, the temple of the God of War Church is far away from the temple area, and when the God of War Church went to look at it today, it was found that the entire temple had been contaminated, we must end this within 10 hours, otherwise we will have to fight again." Mr. Bishop of the God of War Church, who was sitting there, looked very sad: "I will resign as bishop after that, and now we can't help you, child." ”
"Jiaxi, we can't help it, we have to deal with this side first."
"Then I'll take care of it." Marin took the initiative to step up.
"You...... If it's Marin, I'd think it's fine, but do you know where that thing is? The Bishop of Quadrelle, of the Goddess of Harvest Church, asked with a frown.
"Turn the police station upside down, don't you know?" After Ma Lin finished speaking, he turned his head to look at the half-grown man: "Now, let me get acquainted again, I am Marin Gayat, a fourth-year apprentice of the Harvest Goddess Church, a member of the Emergency Handling Department of Fort Carter, a member of the Harvest Goddess Church, the keeper of the Gift of Justice, the Five Rings Mage, and the author of the ninth step of the detective sequence." ”
After saying it in one breath, Marin handed out his hand.
The half-eldest son was silent for a moment, and then stretched out his hand to Marin: "Jiaxi Sheringham, a member of the Fourth Operations Section of the Special Investigation Section of the Special Investigation Office of the Royal Family, a three-ring mage, and a Hunter Sequence Ladder Seven Tracers. ”
"Everyone, there is a purgatory that he needs to face, Jiaxi, let's go." After speaking, Marin turned to look at everyone: "Sorry, let's go first." ”
With that, Marin took Kahi out of the conference hall.
As he walked towards the door, Marin glanced at Kahi, "Where do you think your colleagues will put this thing?" ”
"The basement, because there are so many places to jump off the rooftop, and the basement usually has only one exit."
Now that he knew the answer, Marin walked through the door opened by the guards, looked at the girls who were packing up and frowned: "Why don't you continue." ”
"It's because you need help, dear." Jessica said as she dragged two armed crates from the carriage beside her.
"I now know why my father said so much to me in such a serious tone." Jia Xi, who was beside Marin, said helplessly.
"Your father is for your good." Marlin said as he pulled the engineering hammer from the side of the armed crate that Jessica had dragged as she walked by.
…… It seems to be a lot lighter.
