It's about half past seven in the morning.

Most of the circus members had already gotten up, washed up, and went down to the dining room of the main villa to enjoy a breakfast cooked by Floy herself.

Floy, on the other hand, usually prepares in advance and then goes upstairs to rest on her own.

Although the physique of the transcendent is strong, especially the transcendent who has been promoted to the middle sequence and completed the transcendent qualitative transformation, it does not matter if he does not sleep for a week, but as a woman, Floy inevitably cherishes her skin, and if it is not necessary, she will still return to bed on time before the sun rises every day.

As her connection with the Bonsai grows, her hatred of sunlight grows day by day.

It truly realizes the routine of "the moon doesn't sleep, she doesn't sleep".

Chen Lun left the warehouse with the twelve newly made black crystal dolls, and then gave them instructions to disperse to the winery on their own to participate in the patrol and protection work.

Immediately, he returned to the villa alone.

"Mr. Jack."

"Commander."

After everyone in the circus saw Chen Lun, they stopped their knives, forks and spoons and saluted respectfully.

"Did you come back from outside without a night's rest?"

Noah asked curiously.

"Well, I made some more black crystal puppets and came out, and I just finished busy."

Chen Lun replied with a smile.

He took off his leather gloves and black hat and handed them to Connie, who tacitly hung them on a coat rack in the corner.

After sitting down on the main seat, Chen Lun did not start early, but turned his head to look at Alex and Antonio on one side. The former was a little listless, mechanically stirring the soup with a spoon, while the latter sat like a man on a large, reinforced metal chair, happily humming a song, and in front of it a plate of Floyd's finely made hay.

At first glance, you can tell that it contains ingredients such as oat grass, radish cubes, corn, bran, and calamus.

"Mr. Jack, it's amazing here, Antonio loves it!"

Antonio, the cow, said happily as everyone dined, holding a spoon between his front hooves and clumsily putting food into his mouth.

Du ...... Not...... The food that Miss Floy cooked for me was very tasty! ”

It spewed out human language with a loud urn.

"If you like it, Antonio."

Chen Lun smiled slightly.

He asked Alex again with concern:

"How have these two days been, Mr. Poet."

"It's terrible!"

Alex complained.

"Alright! I admit it! ”

He dropped the spoon casually, clasped his elbows in his hands, and looked haughty.

"Jack, your manor is really okay, the garden, the big bed, the good food, and even the chubby white cat and silly hedgehog make me think it's a nice home...... But you forgot the most important point! ”

Alex looked directly at Chen Lun and said righteously:

"That's freedom! A bard who is not free cannot write great poems, like a canary in a cage, even if it is still amazing, but can no longer sing that beautiful song......"

"I won't let you go unless you tell me the secret I want to know."

Chen Lun smiled and said calmly.

"Secret? What secret? I have no secrets! ”

Alex exclaimed.

Everyone at the table looked at him, but he was undaunted and glared back one by one.

Chen Lun shrugged, ignored Alex, and started to eat by himself.

Seeing this, Alex looked extremely angry, but he could not do anything, so he sighed, sat down, and immediately munched on the bread as if venting, and cursed Jack in his heart.

Chen Lun glanced at him silently, and secretly performed "thinking sharing".

Alex is just an ordinary person, and he doesn't have extraordinary power, and he doesn't even have the slightest awareness in the face of Chen Lun's mind stealing.

After a few breaths.

Chen Lun frowned slightly without a trace.

'It's so unusual that there isn't even the slightest memory associated with the mystery......

He couldn't find any valuable information in Alex's head, the man's mind was full of adventure stories and boastful rhetoric about himself, and the rest was all swearing at Jack.

There didn't seem to be anything abnormal, but this attracted Chen Lun's attention even more.

Chen Lun had a hunch that Alex was definitely not simple, and most of him had some kind of big secret hidden in him.

'Let's watch for a while. ’

He thought so.

After breakfast.

Chen Lun walked to the back garden of the winery, sat on the simple swing made by Golov, and took out the ancient book he found from the leader of the Chrysalis of the End.

This is the third and last opportunity hidden in Peacock City.

At this point, Chen Lun's main purpose of coming to Peacock City has been fully achieved.

He gently opened the ancient book called "Overview of Biological Structures and Other Mythical Creatures", and gradually immersed himself in the ocean of knowledge.

Although the title of the book is not obvious, it is actually a mythological book of the natural faction. It is full of descriptions of the various components and structures of living beings, and even a small amount of information related to mythical creatures.

The content of this book is detailed, even if it is the real society in which Chen Lun lived in his previous life, in such a technologically advanced era, such a book cannot be found...... It can be seen that in the study of living things, the mysterious realm of this world has a comprehensive cognition and unique understanding.

And even better, in some ways.

For example, the structure of living beings, the connection with the occult.

One of the chapters records the symbolism of living beings, indicating that everything has a mystical influence and has a deep symbolic meaning, which can be compared to the symbols and language of ancient times.

Even the ten most important and core divine paths in the mystical realm cannot be avoided, and they have corresponding symbols. For example, the symbol of the moon is a crow, the symbol of flesh is a butterfly, and the symbol of the deep sea is an octopus.

And every creature that symbolizes a high position is also closely related to its body structure. Heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, teeth, sacs, wings, scales...... Each part has its own special role and meaning, and if you can explore the secrets in it, you can even use the body tissue of the symbolic object alone to arrange a simple but attractive ritual to attract the attention of a high-ranking being.

This method is referred to in the book as "symbolic imprinting."

It is a ritual that is loved by high-ranking beings, and the exact reason is unknown.

Time passed quietly, and Chen Lun read the ancient books with great devotion.

The two paths of nature and magic are adjacent to fate, and the relevant knowledge has a strong enlightening effect on him, as can be seen from his past experience.

When the sun rose overhead, Chen Lun finally received a pop-up prompt box from the panel-

[Overview of Biological Structures and Other Mythical Creatures (Progress 51%)]

[You have gained 2 skill points and 15,000 experience points!] 】

[Through careful reading, you have realized and comprehended the skill "Key to Life"! 】

【Key to Life LV1】

Skill Description: Through a long period of research, you have been strongly inspired by the esoteric knowledge of natural pathways, and you have combined life and destiny to burst out with a brilliant fire of inspiration. You can't wait to try to apply this knowledge to [The Magician's] tricks "Damage Transfer" and "Recovery", and comprehend this new ability.

Skill effects: First, you can transfer your own injuries to any part, or even to others, and vice versa, other people's injuries are also at your disposal. (Note: If you use it on others, you will need to go through the quadruple judgment of intelligence, stamina, will, and mystical weight, and you must pass all of them!) ）

Second, you can restore living creatures for a short period of time. (Note: Living creatures need to retain spirituality, i.e., souls and properties!) It must be judged by the four weights of Intelligence, Will, Insight, and Mystery, and all of them must be passed! ）

Three, you have gained a vast amount of life knowledge, which is firmly entrenched in your mind, and you have been able to perfectly control your own body, but the upper limit of sanity is permanently reduced by 20 points.

'...... this skill?!' ’

Chen Lun's eyes widened, and he felt very surprised.

'Freely convert damage, briefly heal living creatures, and control the flesh perfectly...... Worthy of the name Key of Life! Although the limits of each effect are extremely large, and even the upper limit of sanity is reduced by 20 points, it is undeniable that it is a powerful magic skill! ’

Judging from his current panel attributes, many of the transcendents of Sequence 6 are inferior to him, but there is another important indicator for the judgment of the "Key to Life", that is, the mysterious weight, which is a bit mysterious, but in short, it is similar to the power symbol of the sequence.

The low position should not offend the high position, and the same is true of the extraordinary collision between the two.

Transcendent power with low weight will be offset by the shield of the existence with high weight, or even neutralized.

'My sanity was capped at 70 points, but now it's 50 points......

Chen Lun groaned.

Sanity, no, the upper limit of sanity to be exact, is an extremely important attribute for the Transcendent, as it represents the Transcendent's mystical tolerance, and to some extent the persistence of spellcasting.

Although Chen Lun is different from ordinary transcendents and has the sanity reserve of the Maggie statue, it is not a bad thing that he has more "capacity".

'Let's add some points first, and then we'll see if the skills are full.' ’

He thought to himself.

The maximum level of this skill is LV5, and each level requires 2 skill points. Chen Lun invested 8 skill points and upgraded the "Key to Life" to the full level.

After the "Key of Life" is fully upgraded, the effect is enhanced, and the upper limit of sanity is also reduced.

'It's a good thing to only lower the sanity limit by 10......

Chen Lun was very happy.

He didn't stop there, but continued to read the mythological book, and once again gained 2 skill points and 15,000 experience points.

The reserve is now 4 skill points and 30 stat points.

Experience is 230,000.
