Chapter 58: Sequence 7: The Keeper of Knowledge
Anderson only remembered that he seemed to be very pleasing to the eye, and he wanted to put it to the test and sold him a 'hunter' potion, which he received from the adventuring team he had formed.
But I didn't think that that kid was already an extraordinary person in other sequences, so I could only give up.
"Why haven't you left yet?" Anderson asked, a little curiously. He remembered that he had let the other person go.
Abner looked at the strongest hunter in front of him, whose attitude had changed greatly, and he was not at all surprised in his heart, how could he not clean up the traces when the tool man ran out?
"I just don't know if I stole my memories or if I was hypnotized beforehand...... Considering that it may be a demigod from the White Tower path, it may still be a compound skill...... Mystic Mentors are always able to develop some strange spells. Abner didn't dwell on Anderson, but left his room.
He had barely walked a few steps out of the house when he saw Edith smoking in the hallway of the cabin, apparently afraid that something would happen to him to pick him up.
Abner looked at this scene and felt a warm heart, no matter how bad the mouth of this second-generation police officer was, he did regard himself as a friend.
It's just that he doesn't know how terrible Anderson is, and he doesn't understand that coming over like this may become a burden when he escapes. Hugh didn't follow him because he knew that he had the 'Sea Breeze Hat' and that it would be easier for him to escape on the sea without her dragging.
Relieved to see Abner safely out of the room, Edith pulled out the hand that had been put into the pouch of the gun, took out another cigarette, and handed it to Abner.
The original owner was indeed a smoker, but Abner had quit since he crossed over, so he just took it in his hand, and then said to Edith, "It seems that you have grown a lot during your adventures at sea!" β
"I've been taught a few lessons...... I almost lost my life! On the sea, if you don't have the strength, you can only be cautious. Edith was silent for a moment before smiling wryly.
"If you have strength, you have to be cautious!" Abner shook his head, thinking of Miss Gwen, who had run away from home like Edith, who had both brains and action, and who was not weak in the three-man battle group of warriors, hunters, and sailors, but who had lost two reliable companions because of her lack of preparation, so that the extraordinary characteristics of the 'hunter' had reached her pocket.
Edith took a drag on her cigarette, then seemed determined, looked at Abner and asked, "Abner...... You're extraordinary, aren't you? β
"Why do you ask?" Abner is not surprised that the other party knows about the existence of the extraordinary, after all, the extraordinaries overseas are not as restrained as on the mainland, and ordinary people are much more likely to see the extraordinary.
"I didn't understand before...... But based on the experience of adventures these days, your teacher, the great detective Issinger, who can always find clues to the case when the police are helpless, is not a very normal thing...... And your heavy dying cane is not an ordinary thing when I think about it now. Edith counted all the things that he thought were normal before he had seen the extraordinary, and finally asked, "I want to be extraordinary, too...... Do you have any way? β
Abner looked at him and asked seriously, "Do you really have this awareness?" I've heard it said, 'The extraordinary are a bunch of wretched creatures who are always fighting madness and danger!' Even so, do you want to be extraordinary? β
"I know...... I've seen the Extraordinary out of control! My first companion died at the hands of that monster! Edith became emotional as she spoke, and she took a few puffs of her cigarette before she forced her composure, and then said, "I'm sorry, I wasn't targeting you...... But before they died, they entrusted me with those naΓ―ve dreams...... Therefore, I will take their dreams to become the most famous adventurer of the five seas no matter what! I'm going to find those legendary treasures and make a name for myself! β
"So you don't think you have the strength? Want to be extraordinary? Abner sighed and asked, "Carrying other people's dreams like this...... Aren't you tired? β
"That was my original dream! Also, Kyle gave me food and shelter when I was at my most depressed time away from home, Sam saved me when I was in danger, and Dana gave me my first taste of what a man is......" Edith seemed to remember something, and her voice gradually lowered.
When Abner heard this, he knew that there was no need to persuade him anymore, no matter what the other party's reasons were, but he was clearly enlightened.
"I've got a copy here that will make you an extraordinary person straight away, and it's worth Β£400! You know, I can't give it to you! Abner felt that since the 'hunter' trait in his hand was going to be sold sooner or later, it was better to cheapen his friend, at least he wouldn't sell it to him at a premium.
"Forty pounds...... "Edith asked again with a tangle on her face, "this...... Is it the kind of extraordinary person who can immediately increase his combat effectiveness? β
"That's right!" Abner nodded and said, "It can make you a 'hunter', and the 'hunter''s physical fitness will be significantly enhanced, surpassing that of normal humans." β
"Then you can stay for me for a while, and when I get to the port of Enmat, I'll think of a way." Edith gritted her teeth. He didn't try to bargain, apparently feeling that Abner's offer was already fair.
Β£400 is not a small amount for a runaway...... Looks like Edith has something to do with the port of Enmat! Abner thought so, but didn't ask much, he just needed to get the money.
After a few more small talks with Edith, Abner said goodbye to him and went back to his cabin. And Edith was just about to return to her employer, but was stopped by Anderson who came out of nowhere, and the other party smiled and said: "This little brother, let's talk too, I think you speak very 'hunter' characteristics!"
β¦β¦
After returning to the cabin room, Abner adjusted his mood and sealed the entire cabin with a spiritual wall before taking out the various utensils and potions from his luggage.
Because he had anticipated that the potion might be fully digested at any time before boarding the ship, he had already bought all kinds of auxiliary materials for backup.
He put the materials into the beaker one by one, in the order of auxiliary first and then main body. Wait until you put the eyeballs of the dragon's eye python and the golden leaves of the Tree of Wisdom given by the teacher into it one after another.
Multiply!
In the tooth-souring voice, a light blue mist rose up, and was forcibly pulled back into the beaker by an invisible force.
When everything calmed down, Abner hurriedly stirred the liquid inside, and it took on a rather special appearance.
"I always feel ...... No matter which direction you look at these liquids, you can see an eye full of 'scrutiny'......"
This is the "Keeper of Knowledge" potion!
Abner opened the Pure White Eye, and after a little analysis, he confirmed the potion's color. Then he used meditation to calm the throbbing in his heart, allowing all emotions to temporarily move away from himself.
With all this done, he picked up the glass beaker, craned his neck, and drank the "Keeper of Knowledge" potion.
Grunt! Grunt!
The icy potion went down his throat, and countless bubbles burst at all times.
Abner was feeling the stimulus, and a huge stream of information poured into his mind, turning into one 'torrent' after another that continued to wash over his brain.
The veins on his forehead bulged out, and his head seemed to be about to burst!
Fortunately, he had already experienced a similar feeling once when he had dissolved the gray mist with his pure white eyes, and this time it was obviously not as dangerous as it was. As a result, he soon gradually regained his thoughts and began to consciously restrain his thoughts, sketch his visualizations, and get closer to the meditative state little by little.
After an unknown amount of time, his vision returned, and at the same time he felt itchy all over his body.
Abner rolled up his sleeves and noticed that there seemed to be a lot of thin thread-like openings in his arms, but as the potion power overflow stabilized, the threads were gone.
"These thin lines give me the feeling ...... It's like a cracked eye! Could it be that if I get out of control, my eyes will be full of eyes? β
"I completely digested the potion of Sequence 8 before choosing to be promoted, and I have such a serious residual effect on my body, and those extraordinary people who rely on time to polish it will definitely be more difficult to get through this hurdle."
"No wonder the teacher who didn't know how to play at that time used it for more than ten years......"
Thinking of this, Abner sighed silently, and then waved his arm, which was obviously more powerful, and his heart was a little excited, and he thought:
"Finally become a 'Keeper of Knowledge'!"
"In contemporary times, sequence 7 can be regarded as the threshold of the middle sequence."
"This means that the extraordinary will finally bid farewell to the state of being only stronger than ordinary people in some aspects, and will have relatively rich extraordinary abilities!"
"And with pure white eyes, I will be even stronger!"
