Chapter 5 The Wool of the Castle of the Origin
If the memories of my past life hadn't been tampered with, then I would probably be an ancient human who fell from the Source Castle.
Who has the ability to do this? Tianzun, Klein after becoming a "fool", an outer god with similar authority? Considering the current point in time, the answer doesn't seem to be hard to guess.
Is there a way to verify this answer? Actually, there is - the transfer ceremony, if I am the follower of Tianzun, I am naturally qualified to become the master of the Source Fort.
But I'm not an "soothsayer", "apprentice", or "thief", but I'm forced to choose the "Assassin" path, will the source castle still respond to me?
Anyway, you have to give it a try, don't you want to change your life against the sky or a traverser?
Thinking of it, Joyce put on her bathrobe and called Sophia and commanded:
"Prepare four servings of local staples and deliver them to my bedroom."
Ah, what...... Sophia suspected that she was having auditory hallucinations, and stared at him with wide eyes, feeling more and more that Monsieur Baroness had changed to a different person, first without having to bathe herself, and now making such a strange request.
"Didn't understand?"
"I understood, and I immediately ordered the kitchen to do it."
"As soon as possible."
Joyce, who received a satisfactory answer, walked briskly back to the bedroom, nervous and excited, if he really became the new owner of the Source Castle, he would have to bear its fate, make his enemy of Amun, and fight against the will of Tianzun to awaken......
In the midst of constant gains and losses, Sophia sent four servings of staple food.
A loaf of toast, a bowl of egg noodles, a steak, and a plate of seafood fried rice...... Boy! This means that I feel that I am not satisfied with the previous food, so I specially prepared a few more for me to eat as I like?
I'm not a rice bucket...... Joyce muttered to herself, her hands moving, placing the four main dishes in each of the four corners of the room, and then came to the center of the room.
If you want to ask him why he is so skilled, of course, it is because before the crossing, Li Weiping once held this ceremony in the second year of middle school.
Take four steps backwards counterclockwise, step out of a square, and meditate in your mind with each step:
"Fusheng Xuanhuang Xianzun"
"Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianjun"
"Fusheng Xuanhuang God"
"Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun"
After the ceremony, Joyce stood still, her eyes closed, a little expectant, and a little uneasy.
I don't know how long later, just when he was about to give up, a meager gray mist suddenly appeared in front of him, and before he could get excited, those little mist quickly disappeared, as if it had never appeared, as if:
Yuanbao ignored you and rolled his eyes at you.
Call...... For some reason, Joyce breathed a sigh of relief after the defeat, perhaps in his subconscious he didn't want to be a "fool" at all.
And, perhaps in hindsight, Joyce recalls waking up after a time trip and not seeing the black velvet curtain formed by the "mysterious waiter" trait.
Does this mean that my crossing has nothing to do with Tianzun? No, you can't be so arbitrary, never underestimate the power of the gods, walking on thin ice is the law of survival in the mysterious world.
However, I am not without gains...... Joyce couldn't help but draw a handsome arc at the corner of his mouth, with the help of the transfer ritual just now, he successfully leveraged some of the power of the Source Castle, and as one of the essentia, the person of the Source Castle was high enough for him to perceive the spiritual fluctuations that he could not detect before.
It turns out that wool picking is such a cool thing! It's still a risk-free operation, not to die and look directly at the gods...... Joyce mentally laughed at someone's divine manipulation and strode towards the source of the anomalous spiritual fluctuations—the bed.
"Knock Knock"
Tap the wainscoting at the head of the bed with your middle finger, and as expected, hollow.
After some destructive searching, he finally discovered the hidden mechanism hidden under the expensive blanket, an oval-shaped protrusion, symmetrical on the left and right, seemingly just a decoration, unable to move for half a minute no matter how much he pressed or rotated, until he tried to pull it outward, and he succeeded.
Pull it out about 3 centimeters, then rotate it about 90 degrees clockwise, and press it back firmly.
The sound of the "click" mechanism came from the inside of the bed, and a door suddenly opened in the middle of the wainscoting, from which a wooden box popped out, like a pararot at the time of the hour, the difference was that there was no sound, he picked up the box, and the mechanism closed again, tightly sealed.
Wooden boxes are just the kind of boxes that are commonly seen, with no carvings, no mechanisms, and not even chains.
Joyce was silent for a moment, then opened it to find only three items inside: a leather notebook, and two small iron boxes, one large and one small, all sealed by a spiritual wall.
This is the game of "hide and seek" mentioned in William's letter? It turns out that it's really just hide-and-seek...... It's okay to be self-dihua, Joyce shook her head and smiled wryly, and took the lead in picking up the notebook that seemed to know that it was quite old.
Turn the first page, it is written in Rune: I founded the Best family, and from this glory rises.
This is supposed to be the legacy of the ancestor who was knighted in the Battle of the Oath, and the grammar and words in the sentences attest to its age.
The following content is the notes left by the heirs of each generation of the family, including pride, loneliness, and remorse, Joyce seems to see the history of the rise and fall of a family, it is like a small boat, drifting in the long river of history, and finally being ruthlessly overturned by the waves.
Turning to the last page with words, it was the handwriting of my father William, which read: "The glory of the family will be reproduced in me." ”
The next page was supposed to be for Joyce, and he opened it with mixed feelings, and there were no words on it, but he found another envelope clipped there...... Why do I say again? William Best, how much you love to write letters!
With a pinch of his fingers, more than one piece of letterhead, he leaned back in his chair, uncovered the fire paint, and began to read.
"Dear Joyce, to be able to find this wooden box, I believe you are already extraordinary. First of all, please forgive me for making things so complicated, this is the last lesson your father taught you: to survive in an extraordinary world, no matter how cautious, never be too cautious, always keep a humble heart, even if you are strong enough, there is always something in this world that you simply cannot resist. ”
“…… The Law of Immortality of Extraordinary Properties: Extraordinary properties do not destroy, do not decrease, but are transferred from one carrier to another...... The low sequence includes sequence 9 and sequence 8, sequence 7 to sequence 5 belong to the middle sequence, and sequence 4 and above are the high sequence...... Never be the enemy of the high-sequential ......"
"All the potion recipes I know are written below, and you can choose to train your loyal subordinates to become extraordinary, and they will be your right-hand men......
"The potion recipe and related abilities are as follows: Sequence Nine Arbiter of the Arbiter Pathway, Sequence Eight Sheriff, Sequence Seven Inquisitor, Sequence Six Judge...... Sequence Nine Hunter of the Hunter Path, Sequence Eight Provocateur...... Sequence 9 of the Lawyer Pathway......"
"Steward Hunter is the Sequence 8 'Provocateur' of the Hunter Path, he is absolutely loyal to me, when you feel that you can control him, you can give him the contents of the small iron box, that is the extraordinary characteristic of the Sequence 7 'Arsonist', but unfortunately I didn't get the potion formula back then, and you need to search for it."
"Inside another tin box was a magical item, in its original form a dagger. When you infuse the spirit, it can be transformed into any weapon you want, and you can gain expert-level skill in using that weapon, while greatly increasing your physical strength. ”
"It's singular in its negative effects, but it's dangerous enough. The person who uses it will slowly become crazy and murderous, and this change will be silent, and when it is used for more than a certain amount, you will become a demon who wants to kill everyone without warning. ”
Joyce held the letter in her hand, looked at the two iron boxes sealed by the spiritual wall, and was silent for a long time.
Occult knowledge, potion recipes, extraordinary properties, advice on the way forward, a father who pours all his love into his son...... Joyce's heart was heavy, this was the simplest and most sincere emotion, and he thought that he would never have the opportunity to see his parents and friends in his previous life again, and what was even more sad was that they might just be a dream of his own.
He will accept this gift, and he will also take responsibility to restore the best family's glory.
It's a traverser's promise.
