"Cold Reading!"

Marven took out a thick book from his hand and said to Xu Mo. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Remember? In Marianne's damn devil's cram school. Whenever you leave class, you'll be drawn to a clutter of extracurricular books on the edge of the classroom, depicting a world that has nothing to do with magic. At that time, you had just completed a practice paper for the grammar of the demon language, and your eyes were drawn to the big brown book called "Cold Reading". ”

Marven pointed to the thick book and said.

"Wow, cold reading. What an interesting subject, a subject that has nothing to do with magic. Guess what is in the heart of others through the reaction on their faces, and use some ambiguous words to explore what is really hidden in a person's heart, remember what is said in that book? ”

Marven's eyes looked at Xu Mo's face, and the bright red eyes unique to the blood clan were as bright as a ruby.

"Read! Read the inner thoughts of others without magic. ”

"Hahaha, I can guarantee that I have studied much more in the discipline of cold reading than you have done with a few hasty glances."

The corners of Marven's mouth opened, revealing his snow-white teeth, including the sharp bloody tooth, of course.

"It seems that the problem you are facing has something to do with the contradictions between races."

This sentence is one of the typical cold reading openings. Ozmanda is a diverse country, and all conflicts are more or less related to race. Your reaction was very cold, and it was clear that you didn't have any trust in me as a so-called stranger at that time. Marven opened the book in his hand, pointed to a chapter title and said to Xu Mo.

"In Ozmanda, the problem of inter-race is arguably the biggest problem. With the deepening of the integration of Ozmanda, the integration of the human race, the elf race, the dwarf race, the goblin race, the orc race, the blood race, the troll race, and even some rare angel races, dragon races, the contradictions between the integration of these races are becoming more and more serious. ”

"A muscle in your face twitched unnaturally when I spoke of the Bloodline, and the blood in your face sped up by twenty percent." Marven closed the book, "Don't doubt my Blood's perception of human blood, the countless 'drinks' I have sucked can bear witness to my words." ”

"The human race can't stand the habit of the dwarves not bathing, the dwarves can't stand the tradition of the orc race's split, the orcs look down on the goblins for money, the goblins despise the purity of the elves, and the elves can't stand the blood's wanton behavior in terms of sex."

"When I talk about the Bloodline's sex, your pupils dilate a little more than usual, and you blink 0.004 seconds later than usual, and this message even though I'm a transcendent creature relies on a sharply observed spell rune stone." Marven escaped from his pocket with a dim stone, looked at Xu Mo's face, and said.

"0.004 seconds, 0.004 seconds again." Xu Mo hugged his head in some pain.

"I've spent 30 years on cold reading. I was fascinated by this technology, which didn't require any magic and could be activated by elemental energy. Marven's tone suddenly became a little lost, and he spoke to Xu Mo eloquently.

"Do you understand my euphoria? It's a discipline that doesn't need to be driven by magic at all! No magic arrays, no spells, no gestures, no casting materials! A subject that can be studied with just a normal brain! I was able to see a world in this discipline, a world completely different from the power of magic! Marven's hand gestured in the air, and his bright red eyes showed an unnatural transparency in the somewhat dazzling sunlight.

"I don't understand why you're so fascinated by such a subject. If you just want to read a person's memory, I think some psychic spells can be very helpful, although those spells that can read a person's memory directly have a high threshold for casting. Xu Mo asked cautiously.

"Huh." Marven smiled indistinctly.

"Fascinated? Am I more than obsessed? I'm already crazy about cold reading, and I'm definitely not just fascinated. No, I'm crazy about all the knowledge that has nothing to do with magic, they're so scarce! It's as scarce as the beating night grass in the fairy night song! ”

"Why don't you rely on magic, they do work well."

"Easy to use! Of course it works! For those geniuses who are gifted and born to be able to sense the magic elements in the air, the shadow magic element, magic is of course better than anything else! So, what about us? ”

Marven smiled miserably.

"What about us? What about those of us who can't have any sense of magic at all? What do you call us? Brand! Brand! This means blind in the language of the blood clan! ”

"You can imagine that your family bought the most expensive magic potion, a whole case! Pour into a pool, and the rich magic can even liquefy and fill an entire pool! You soak in the pool with trepidation. ”

"You close your eyes in the pool and the colorful magical elements flutter in the sky, they are one of the highest quality and most lively magical elements in the world, and they can make anyone feel the inspiration of magic! But they just fly around you quietly, and even if you stretch out your hands to catch them in the air, they won't fit into your body. ”

"Have you ever felt that kind of despair? I've tried to become a mage, but none of the magical elements will work with you! They are like the coldest strangers, refusing to befriend me again and again! ”

"I've tried to become a warlock, but Hell and the Abyss have repeatedly denied me communication with it, and no matter what kind of sacrifice I put on, they will ignore my request!"

"To me, spells are like a distant palace that is out of reach."

Marven said.

"This is Brand."

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you couldn't have a sense of magic elemental."

"Remember cold reading? This magical technique is much more friendly, I can feel my own progress, I can understand a person's inner thoughts from a person's words, movements, demeanor, and eyes. And this technique has become more and more perfect as I practice! ”

"Look at the orc girl walking by on your left, she has an old-fashioned mobile phone in her hand, and the shell has the scratches characteristic of orcs, I think she must have used this phone for many years, combined with her clothing, it is clear that she is a poor girl. She is not very old, but she has a high-level spell textbook, she is very talented in spells, but the textbook still has the name of an orc boy written on it, oh, it is a superior surname, it seems that her lover is a very powerful orc. ”

"If you're not here, I'll go up and talk to her and learn more. The image of a talented but depressed orc girl took shape in my mind, and I would use my connections, money, and power to give her a well-paid job, promise a good future, and tell her to follow me to make the boy like him, and eventually make her die for me. ”

"Reading, reading a person, is much more important than just watching."

"It's a completely different body of knowledge!"

"Incredible!" Xu Mo exclaimed.

Although there are some hypnotists and psychologists on the earth who can make such magical speculations, at this moment, Marven can use some unique abilities in this magical world to do things far beyond the earthlings.

"No, no, no. It's not that I'm incredible, it's you! ”

Marven suddenly stared at Xu Mo, his scarlet eyes shining with a light of adoration.

"I'm just stumbling along a 'technique', and what you've discovered is the 'Tao'."

"That's why you came to me all of a sudden?"

Speaking of this at this moment, Xu Mo didn't want to continue to behave like a mentally handicapped, he changed his tone and said to Marven a little coldly.

"I originally thought our relationship would just be a simple love triangle." Xu Mo stood up, and the gloomy color on his face was swept away.

"Behold, what a beautiful and simple campus story. You like Linda, Linda likes me, I like Linda, and then you try everything to keep me away from Linda, but you only expose your naivety and weakness in front of Linda, and in the end I successfully pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger, making you ugly in front of everyone. ”

"It was something I had imagined, but now I realize that it doesn't seem that simple. Linda's affection for me doesn't last long, I underestimate the amorous nature of the Bloodd, and I underestimate the essence of you, you are not a playboy, but an adventurer who explores through thorns. ”

Xu Mo looked at Marven solemnly.

"No, I guess I underestimated you. I thought you were just an ignorant mortal bewitched by the Bloodline. Marven said with a smile.

"Cold reading? No, that's just appearances. I think something you've been working on for 30 years is called interpersonal communication. ”

"Interpersonal communication?" Marven asked with interest

"As you say, a whole new body of knowledge. Enough for you to spend a lifetime exploring, to discover. Xu Mo said confidently.

"What about the 'perfect creatures'? I thought that was what I was looking for, the art of communicating with people. ”

"No, the essence of the Perfect Biology Society is economics, which is another body of knowledge." Xu Mo said with some disapproval, although he also knew little about economics, but there were still many basic concepts in his head that he had been exposed to on the earth.

"Can I join?" Marven finally said his purpose with great interest.

"Of course, you can go to Arwen, that is, Teacher Wen. I think with your power, you should know my company in detail. Xu Mo laughed and said.

"I've never stopped laying out, since I entered the Tower of Light, I've invited teachers to improve the products they sell, and I've spent millions of dollars from purchases to build new companies, train people, and expand channels. Although I don't know the current development, it must have affected tens of thousands of people, right? ”

"No, I don't want to be that kind of sales guy with Mr. Wen. Although the picture described in it is very beautiful, I always felt that things should not be so simple, which is one of the reasons why I came to you. ”

"Do you want to study economics?" Xu Mo asked.

"That's right! I'm curious about that whole body of knowledge, that body of knowledge without magic! ”

"Actually, I don't know anything about that." Xu Mo smiled slightly,

"But at least I know a lot more than you do."

"Cooperation?"

"Of course!"
