Chapter 12: Tracing (Part 1)

After a thorough examination of the contents of the materials, the old gentleman of the "Eye of Wisdom" nodded appreciatively and said, "You are even better than I expected, although this is definitely due to the 'Reader' potion to improve your memory, but to this extent, it means that you are very talented in language!" ”

"Thanks to the fact that the information you gave me is very easy to understand." Abner was habitually modest.

"Russell the Great once said that too much modesty is hypocrisy, Abner. You know, it took me a month to learn this material in Gufsak! I hadn't taken potions yet, though. The Eye of Wisdom shook his head and laughed.

Without any cheats, you learned a language in a month? You're a monster, aren't you? Abner was scolding, still smiling humbly on the surface.

"What is your faith?" At this time, the old gentleman "Eye of Wisdom" suddenly asked.

I said believe in the fool, will you take out the sun brooch and purify me on the spot? Abner was stunned by the question, and complained in his heart, and then remembered that the original owner's family were all believers in the goddess, so he replied, "Uh...... Goddess of the Night. ”

The "Eye of Wisdom" chuckled, obviously seeing the weakness of Abner's faith, and said in a persuasive tone: "Judging by the hesitation you just now, you don't look like a faithful believer in the goddess of the night. I think that your character and philosophy are very much in line with the teachings of the Church of Knowledge, so why not convert to the God of knowledge and wisdom of our Lord? ”

Do you mean that I don't look like a two-five boy if I am not religious, so it is more suitable to believe in that two-five dragon? What is this? Compatibility?

Abner looked down and pondered for a moment before he raised his head and asked, "Is there any benefit to conversion?" ”

"......" Rao is a well-informed old gentleman with the "eye of wisdom", and he was also a little speechless by this question, and began to wonder if he was right to introduce such a realistic person into the church...... After a long while, he sighed and said, "Maybe you heard the news from Caspers, I had intended to take you as a student before, but now I see your talent and hard work, but I like it even more...... If you convert to my lord, I will be your teacher and teach you the occult, and I can see that you are lacking in that right now. ”

This is a fact, Abner has read the whole "Master of Mystery" and knows a lot about some secret or high-end knowledge, but most of the basic occult knowledge is only mentioned in the novel, and he doesn't know it.

Although the outstretched thighs did not hug Bai Bai, Abner still did not respond immediately, but asked:

"Why?"

Why do you want to accept me as a student, there are so many people in Beckland, there are many talented young people, for a Sequence 7 Keeper, it is very easy to accept students, there is no need to be so proactive.

The "Eye of Wisdom" understood what Abner was asking, and agreed with his caution not to be dazzled by pie falling from the sky, and the old gentleman didn't seem to want to hide his thoughts, and said bluntly: "If I say that I see you pleasing to the eye and want to help you from the bottom of my heart, you will definitely not believe ......"

Seeing Abner nodded, the words of the "Eye of Wisdom" turned and continued: "However, this is the truth! Since I first met you yesterday, my spiritual instinct has told me that if I try to help you now, I will be rewarded handsomely in the future, and even help me through the disaster! I don't know where that intuition comes from, but it's helped me through it in the past, just not as strongly as this one, so I trust it. ”

"Hey, such a hunch is the ability of the 'Reader' pathway sequence 4 'Prophet', right? Do you want to play such a rebellious game as a Sequence 7 'Keeper of Knowledge'? Well, unless there is a boss at the top of this series who favors you and lets you experience it in advance......"

Abner was habitually slandering, but when he thought of this, he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat! Because he thought of a question, a question that he had ignored before: as a lonely soul in another world with a golden finger, after he had just crossed over and had become bound with the 'reader' path, would the god of knowledge and wisdom at the top of the path, known as 'omniscient', have noticed him? What's more, his golden finger is obviously very compatible with the ability of this path.

He didn't think about this before, because he felt that his golden finger obviously had the characteristics of 'divine obscurity', which could help him shield himself from prying eyes and pollution, and that Erwu Dragon should not pay special attention to such a small person as himself.

But the 'kindness' shown by the "Wisdom Eye" made Abner less confident, perhaps the God of Knowledge and Wisdom sensed and controlled this path far beyond his imagination!

"Suppose He knew of my existence and didn't immediately deal with me, but let a believer indirectly 'invest' in me...... Does this mean that He foresees a positive impact on the world as a result of my coming? Well, at least the change is in His favor! And the way He chose to help me wasn't so subtle, 'Do good deeds and keep a name'? Abner gradually calmed down and analyzed carefully. However, he didn't dare to call Erwulong in his heart, and only used 'he' to refer to him.

"All the gifts of fate are secretly marked with a price...... I don't know what to use in the future to repay this 'kindness'? I don't think about it too much, even if I know this, I can't change anything, what if I refuse His kindness and become an enemy of Him? Hey, sometimes it's not a good thing to know too much secrets, and if you don't understand anything, you can be a happy tool pawn now...... No, it's better to think of these speculations as if I was scaring myself, and maybe the truth is that the 'Eye of Wisdom' suddenly had a whim? ”

After thinking through many things, Abner laughed at himself, raised his eyes to look at the old gentleman of the "Eye of Wisdom" who was still waiting for his answer, and took a deep breath and said, "I am willing to be your student, teacher." My name is Abner, Abner Blaine. ”

With that, he took off his iron mask. Since you want to apprentice, you naturally want to show your true face.

The old gentleman of the "Eyes of Wisdom" seemed to be very happy, and he also took off his mask, revealing his blue-eyed and thin face, an old gentleman with gray temples and an excellent temperament.

"My name is Isenger Stanton, the 'Keeper of Knowledge' in Sequence 7, and a believer in the God of Knowledge and Wisdom...... You will be my official student from today onwards, and I will recommend you to Lemburg in the future. "The Eye of Wisdom," Mr. Esinger introduced himself.

That's it? So casual? There's no process or anything?

Eisinger seemed to see Abner's surprise, and explained with a smile: "We in the Knowledge Church don't have so many cumbersome rules unless we perform rituals, and everyone will try their best to guide their peers who love knowledge and are willing to study seriously. What's more, this is in Rune, in the tyrant's territory, everything is simple. ”

Abner nodded in understanding, and then he heard the other man continue: "You can move to my house from tomorrow, I will give you guidance in my free time, and you can read my collection while I work." Of course, you also have to help me do some work to organize and analyze the data to cover the cost of food and lodging. By the way, my residence is at 16 Gnarr Street in the Hilston borough. ”

Don't you pay your salary? Abner subconsciously complained in his heart, but after thinking about it, he still didn't want to eat steamed buns for nothing, so he just mentioned that he would go out in the morning to practice firearms and martial arts. Not surprisingly, this was approved by Detective Issinger.

"Alright, go and call that little girl in, and then let's go find and destroy the extraordinary one who cursed her! When you become your teacher, you naturally have to solve the worries of your students. Detective Issinger stood up and tapped his cane.

Abner was very surprised, he didn't expect the other party to help him, and a thought suddenly rose in his mind, 'It's not bad to recognize such a teacher'.

Hugh soon re-entered the living room under the guidance of the attendant, and when she saw the master and apprentice who had taken off their masks, she was visibly stunned, and looked at Abner with some uneasiness.

"I've become a student of Mr. Isinger!" Abner explained to Hugh, and then continued, "The teacher promised to go with us to find the man who cursed you. ”

Hugh pursed her lips when she heard this, feeling that she owed a favor again, but she didn't want to refuse, if she didn't deal with that person as soon as possible, she would probably bring danger to Furth in the future, and she didn't want to trouble her friends anymore because of herself.

So Hugh also took off his mask and said to them sincerely: "Thank you, Abner. Thank you, Mr. Wise Eyes. She thought that Abner had begged his teacher for help from him, so she thanked both of them.

"You're welcome. Without further ado, let's go now! Just make it clear to me on the road. Detective Issinger waved his hand, and then showed the vigorous action of a detective.

Hugh and Abner looked at each other, and hurriedly followed Isenger to his left and right, recounting what had happened to him as he walked to the subway station.

……

In the subway station near the Cathedral of the Holy Winds, Isenger stared at a corner near the platform lounge, and through the observation and analysis of Hugh's cursed power before purification, he quickly restored a picture of the badge cracking in his mind. This is one of the Keeper's spell-like abilities, scene backtracking.

"That's where that person gets backlashed. Heh, the badge he cursed with was supposed to be a 'Level 3' seal...... Your transcendent item level is not low! Isenger looked at Abner with a smirk. However, he has a lot of powerful items on him, so this is not something to covet his own students, but a beating on this kid's words that are not full of truth.

Abner laughed dryly when he heard this, and didn't explain anything, the pure white eye is his biggest hole card, and he won't take the initiative to expose himself.

"The traces of the operation have not been cleaned up, and it seems that this is not a professional criminal...... At least, not a professional offender who has dealt with 'detectives'. You two are following me, and I can roughly guess where he's hiding. ”
