Chapter 27: Sequence 8
Abner was unaware of the battle that took place in Jowood's district, and he was still immersed in the excitement of the reader's potion being fully digested,
"I was able to digest the potion so quickly, firstly, because of the help of the Pure White Eye, and secondly, it should be that I read and learned a lot of books on physics, chemistry, political history, etc. in my previous life, and through this knowledge, I understood the world and analyzed the rules of the world to a limited extent...... This behavior is obviously in line with the true meaning of the reader's potion, and can be regarded as playing in advance. ”
Abner habitually analyzed the reason why he was able to digest potions so quickly, and then quickly packed up his things and hurried back to the teacher's house.
After becoming a reader, he had already used his pure white eyes to parse the auxiliary materials of the 'reasoning student' through the extraordinary characteristics of that sequence 8 in his spare time. As for the main material? That extraordinary property is the main material in itself!
At this time, Detective Issinger was still outside investigating the recent commission and was not at home. So, Abner just greeted the servant at home and walked into the teacher's laboratory.
Since low-order auxiliary materials were not something difficult to find, he had already bought them for backup.
He first cleaned the flasks he had prepared, and then put the prepared auxiliary materials into them one by one, and a light green transparent solution immediately formed in the flasks.
After making the preparations, Abner set his sights on the blue gemstone that had been condensed by its extraordinary properties. Ever since he learned how to construct the Spirit Wall, he had been sealing it with Spirit, so even though two weeks had passed, the gem had not lost much power.
After a few seconds of steady, Abner picked up the blue gem and threw it into the flask.
As soon as the extraordinary properties of Sequence 8 touched the solution in the bottle, it immediately made a sizzling sound, and the surrounding air even showed unrecognizable symbols due to the distortion of the rising water vapor, and quickly drifted away:
Abner glanced down and saw that the liquid in the flask had taken on a blue and green color, and they were so intertwined that he almost thought it was a special cocktail.
It feels delicious...... Abner felt his saliva secrete a little more, and hurriedly suppressed this nonsensical thought,
He took another deep breath, no longer hesitated, lifted his cup, raised his head slightly, and drank the potion.
However......
It doesn't taste good at all! Potions really don't have anything to drink! Its good-looking appearance just now is advertising fraud!
By this time, Abner could clearly feel that his face was burning and his head was beginning to tingle, but the pain was far from the pain he used to draw the ethereal spirit every time he used the Pure White Eye, so he easily endured it.
After more than ten seconds, the stinging pain in the head began to gradually subside until it disappeared. At this moment, Abner clearly knew that he had been promoted successfully, and that he was the "reasoning student" of Sequence 8.
When the excitement subsided slightly, he first moved his hands and feet, trying to adapt to the changes in his body. As a result, I found that even if I became a sequence 8, there was no improvement in physical fitness. This is also normal, and the 'reasoning cadet' is not a combat profession either.
Then, Abner picked up a book on astrology that had been difficult to understand without opening his white eyes, and then found that his observation, reading, and logical analysis skills had really improved greatly. The effect of the boost is only slightly worse than when he opened the Pure White Eye as Sequence 9.
According to the teacher, the improvement of logical analysis skills can allow reasoning students to better understand ritual magic, and even simplify and transform themselves...... But it has nothing to do with me, because I experienced it through the Pure White Eye when I was a reader, and even because of the Pure White Eye's domineering analytical ability, I understand those ritual magic more thoroughly......" Abner thought for a moment, and then continued to study another more practical ability that he had obtained after advancing to Sequence 8: Psisight!
It is not surprising that reasoning students can see spiritually, after all, extraordinary people who cannot see spiritually will miss a lot of clues, so how can it be called 'reasoning'?
After learning the old Neil's method of teaching Klein in the novel, Abner smoothly entered the vision, and for the first time looked at the world from a different perspective.
The mainstream field of occultism divides the non-physical part of each person into four layers, from the inside to the outside, which are the spirit body, the astral spirit body, the mental body, and the etheric body, and the potion of the reader's sequence mainly improves the mental body, which involves the mind and belongs to the comprehensive presentation of reasoning ability, thinking ability, insight ability and ability to understand things.
"What if I opened the Pure White Eye while I was in Vision?" The thought crossed his mind, but Abner didn't do it immediately. Because he probably guessed what the outcome would be. In front of his eyes that he can't completely restrain and control pure whiteness, once he opens it under the spiritual vision, there is a seventy or eighty percent probability that he will analyze the entire spiritual world independently! After all, spiritual vision, the 'vision' is the spiritual world! He didn't want to die.
With his vision turned off, Abner figured out what he was capable of when he was promoted to the 'Reasoning Student'. Then, he lay down in the lounge and slept to restore the spirit that had been consumed by his vision.
When he woke up, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon, and Detective Isenger still hadn't returned, as if he had stumbled over something.
Abner put on glasses to conceal the vision, took a deep breath, and opened the 'Pure White Eye' by hint. He also has to continue to test how the sequence promotion improves his golden finger.
After about a minute, Abner took off his glasses a little tiredly, and thought to himself, "The opening limit has been increased to 1 minute and 10 seconds." This was not surprising to him, before he had digested the Reader's potion, the limit of the Pure White Eye had already exceeded 30 seconds, and now this improvement was normal.
"Observation power, logical ability, etc., have been added again in the pure white eye state, and it should be only slightly weaker than the 'Keeper of Knowledge' in Sequence 7, and based on this, the speed of analyzing items seems to be faster......
"On top of that, I can also use some of the 'Keeper' abilities while in the Pure White Eye state, such as Weapon Mastery, Fighting Master, and the spell-like ability of 'Scene Backtracking'! In other words, except for the lack of 'Keeper of Knowledge''s physique improvement, I am almost equal to half of Sequence 7 in this state! ”
Thinking of this, Abner took his staff and pronounced 'unsheathed' in the ancient Hermetic language, and then the staff became a delicate rune general's saber.
Holding the sword in his hand, Abner immediately felt a sense of familiarity, and he immediately swung his sword and stabbed several killer moves from memory.
Although he was not in the state of pure white eyes at this time, the memory of 'weapon mastery' that he had just received had not completely faded, and he still remembered a small part. If you practice repeatedly, you may be able to barely 'master some weapons' even under normal conditions.
After turning the long sword back into a cane, Abner's heart was full of excitement and excitement, because he had traveled through the past two weeks and finally had a relatively good combat power! Even if this combat power can only last for a minute.
……
At the Bar of the Brave, Marić, who was playing cards with the corpse he controlled, suddenly looked to the left-hand side. There, Miss Sharon had already appeared quite gracefully.
"Sharon, how's it going?" Marić asked, dropping the cards in his hand.
"Jason has called Steve and Tyle, and they've broken through the punisher's ambush." Miss Sharon replied succinctly.
"The werewolf in Sequence 7, the living corpse in Sequence 6, the Wraith in Sequence 5...... We can't take them down anytime soon......" Marić weighed and shook his head.
"Hmm...... Tyre and Jason have been battered and have lost their combat effectiveness, and they won't be able to recover for at least a week. Steve must have been injured by the Relic of the Substitute Team Leader's relic, but I can't tell how badly it hurts. Miss Sharon paused for a second, then said in an ethereal voice.
Hearing this, Mariqi's slightly vicious eyes flashed slightly, and he said, "If that's the case, then you can try...... Do you know where they are hiding? ”
"Yes, I followed Tyre as he escaped...... They are all now hidden in the warehouse of a clothing store in the Joe Wood area. Sharon, who was like a puppet, listened calmly and nodded.
"Still in the Joe Wood district? This is what Russell the Great said, 'black under the lamp'! Marić frowned slightly, then suddenly, and then continued, "I need a day to prepare for the retreat and retreat, and we will raid them tomorrow night!" ”
"I'll keep an eye on their ......" Sharon's figure in a black court dress and a small floppy hat quickly faded and disappeared into the chess room.
……
In the basement of the Cathedral of the Holy Winds, in the headquarters of the Beckland Punisher Squad, the team leader asked a member of the 'Wind Favorer' team, "Have you found out where that werewolf ended up fleeing with the living corpse?" ”
"I'm sorry, Captain. The wraith you're confronting seems to be very good at eliminating clues, and he should have a seal in his hand that can use a variety of dark magic, which has made the few traces even more confusing, and Old Red has no way to 'retrace the scene'......" The team member said in a hateful tone.
"Hmph, contact the police stations in each district and ask them to report a disappearance or murder as soon as possible. The members of the Rose School of Indulgence can't help but be instinctive! The captain of the substitute snorted coldly.
"Yes! Captain. ”
"Also, you spread the news of the serious injuries of the three Lust Masters to some of the informants in the Wild Extraordinary, and let them spread the news from their secret gatherings! For these indulgent rats, perhaps the so-called ascetic faction is even better! The captain of the substitute added at the end.
……
In the evening, Detective Issinger Stanton returned to his home with a happy face, intending to share the deflated situation of the 'Tyrant's' team with his students as soon as possible.
As soon as he saw Abner, his eyes widened in surprise:
"You're now a 'reasoning student'?! It's only been two weeks? ”
