Colley chewed on the "Faith Gummaf", its sweetness quickly faded without a trace, and the rest of the substance tasted like chewing wax.
After chewing for at least 5 minutes, I didn't feel any signs of subsequent digestion.
So Colly pressed his front teeth and tongue against the gum and blew out a pale golden bubble ball.
With a snap, Ke Li watched as the gumball balloon burst and turned into a thin filament of light, dissipating in the air without a trace.
Except for the faint pain in his cheeks, there was no residue left in his mouth.
“…… That's not how it works, and I don't have the knowledge. ”
Receiving the faith feather gum in his arms, the dizzy Ke Li decided to pull up the quilt and sleep for a while.
The timeline in the dream should have been 5 years ago, but in the ritual circle, the feeling of being peeped by anomalous beings has not diminished in the slightest, and the irresistible suppressive effect is still fresh in my memory, and the barrier formed by at least 10 level 1 enchanted gems cannot be resisted.
There is a high probability that there are gods in this world.
Although it is not known whether the so-called gods are the ascended gods of mortals through potions or rituals, or the native-born primordial gods or the gods of natural faith, or another form of life, it is certain that their power and characteristics are incomparably powerful.
If it was really because of the Gem Secret Realm, he was concerned by some unknown existence, and Ke Li needed to obtain enough self-protection ability as soon as possible.
As Colcan said: The incompetent become extraordinary by chance, just like putting their hands into a cold whirlpool, and the extraordinary need to face the dilemma of staying in the 18th sequence for the rest of their lives, or losing their extraordinary characteristics and falling back into the danger of ordinary people, becoming dregs and empty shells.
"At least five years ago, the Extraordinaries of the Tower Path operated in the shadows of the Griffon Empire, and this is one of the few pieces of information I have. The cultists were going to summon some unknown being, and Stonewall's face was prompting a dealer, so I could do that. ”
"The card-based nature is similar to enchanted scrolls and enchanted ammo, and the promotion and use of cards will definitely be more obvious, as long as you pay attention. I don't know if the tower path has been carried forward in the past few years, or has been intensively exterminated. ”
At 9:30, the sun gave birth to a little warmth, and then I got up and washed.
The beast drove to the Mammothhorn registry, and Colley kicked open the door as if no one was around, striding towards the registration counter.
The old man behind the counter was full of panic, and said with a smile: "This guest, do you have anything to do?" ”
Colley feigned anger: "I only came to your Mammoth Horn yesterday to register, and that's how you treated me?" ”
The old man looked inexplicable: "What treatment?" Mammoth Horn welcomes guests of any race and nationality with absolutely no discrimination. ”
Ke Li took out the scroll of knowledge and knocked on the edge of the counter: "It's just this thing, it caused me to have nightmares all night, you dare to say that it has nothing to do with you at all?" ”
The old man said solemnly: "The materials provided by Mammoth Horn are absolutely from a legitimate source, safe and reliable, please don't be unreasonable." ”
Ke Li nodded clearly and laughed: "Okay, you are safe and reliable." Then don't move around here, I'll read it to you, and if you don't have anything to do tonight, I'll believe you say it's safe and secure. ”
The old man trembled, his face was like a gray chrysanthemum frost, and he immediately covered his ears and shrank under the counter and screamed, "Don't! ”
"I'm just an ordinary person, I don't want to know those things!"
Colley: "After becoming an extraordinary, there are usually three ways to be promoted, which are ......"
Before the words fell, a scumbag man in a windbreaker and top hat came out of the side door next to the counter, looking Ke Li up and down:
"A very normal little thing, how can saying hello be like looking for someone to take revenge?"
"Alright, come in and talk about any questions."
Ke Li was not angry, but he didn't expect the person in charge to be too lazy to be polite, and the routine ended before he had time to show it.
The bitter aroma of coffee wafted through the reception room.
As soon as Colly entered, a brown-feathered owl flew down to the bearded man's shoulder, curiously looking at the guests who had entered.
"My name is Colley-Kidman, you can call me Colley, I'm a gem merchant on my way home, and you may have heard of me on the list of snowy caravans. There should be no enemies between us, but your people's attitude is a bit problematic. ”
The scumbag grabbed a document from the drawer: "My name is Wayne, I've been busy lately, please tell me if you have any questions." ”
Colly took out the scroll and tapped it on the edge of the table: "Then you're welcome - what the hell is going on with you guys, I had nightmares all night after reading it, and if you say it's okay with you, then I don't believe it." ”
Wayne picked up his pipe in surprise: "You finished reading it in one go?" ”
Ke Li looked at the other party suspiciously: "There aren't many words in this scroll?"
Wayne fell into a brief silence, and his blood pressure rose rapidly: "You...... Don't you know that when you are exposed to unknown knowledge, you will immediately stop reading when you feel unwell, and then come to someone as soon as possible to find help to determine the source of the anomaly? Can you read it all in one sitting? ”
Ke Li thought thoughtfully: "There is still such a statement? ”
Wayne smiled and said, "To make a long story short, the knowledge recorded in this scroll is the promotion experience that has been explored by extraordinary people in the past. ”
"Distribute scrolls to newcomers to Mammoth Horn, firstly to prevent people like you from going astray, and secondly, to test each other's steady state by instilling some new knowledge...... Although Mammoth Horn's guests are of all races, the out-of-control Extraordinary is a hidden danger after all, and if you can read it in one sitting, it shows that your mental and physical condition is not bad. ”
"I'm curious about your nightmares, though, would you be willing to share them if you could?"
Colley was only going to give Wayne part of the truth: "What are you going to trade for a secret?" Frankly, I don't trust you very much. ”
Wayne smiled, but didn't rush to light a cigarette:
"I've seen a lot of newcomers like you, either for fear of being discovered, or for fear of being revealed, or overthinking yourself as different, or overthinking yourself in the ecstasy of gaining power...... In fact, the path of serial promotion from ancient times to the present day has been explored by the extraordinary, and potions and rituals will always change with the development of the times and the scattering of characteristics, and each era is different. ”
"For the sake of your normal mental condition, I can tell you the low-order knowledge of interest in exchange."
Ke Li thought for a moment, and then said: "The logic of the dream is very confusing, and I'm not sure what it wants to express, but in the dream I got a glimpse of a cult...... They seem to belong to the Extraordinaries of the Tower Pathway, and the extraordinaires are closely tied to the cards. ”
Wayne looked into Colley's eyes, convinced that the other party was not lying: "Tower Path?" Interesting, what else? ”
Colley: "It seems like the cultists are planning to use the promotion of cards to complete some kind of sacrificial ritual, that's all. ”
Wayne looked at Colley playfully, "Let me guess, your extraordinary traits have something to do with the Prophet sequence?" ”
Ke Li shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "I am wrong, I am more interested in the purgatory path and the demon sequence now." ”
"Oh, the demon sequence, it doesn't matter if you don't want to reveal it specifically, it's the same if you want to register with us when you want to cooperate."
Wayne lit his pipe casually, not paying attention to Corrie's expressions and movements, perhaps he felt that the people of the Demon Sequence didn't care about this:
"Sequence 18, Prisoner of Perdition."
"Sequence 17, Bloodhound."
"Sequence 16, Wild Bull."
"Sequence 15, Lions."
"As far as I know, the compatibility of demon sequences with potion substitutes is very high, there can be a variety of substitutes such as black goat, black ring snake, black spider, etc., but I don't know more about it, the people of the Brave Hunting Church should have more and more complete branches and sequences."
Ke Li's face changed slightly: "These powers are all related to the legendary demon image?" ”
Wayne nodded, his smile a little playful: "Yes, because there are no legendary primordial demons in this era, many potion recipes and sequence names have to be rewritten, looking for things with similar extraordinary characteristics to replace them, and this is the case in every era." ”
"In this regard, I can give you a piece of information for free, the 4 low-order powers, either gradually and sequentially, or merge with each other to form a puzzle to complete the extraordinary characteristics. Enables the Extraordinary to 'synthesize and promote' to the Extraordinary in the middle sequence. ”
"Just as Sequence 18 is the starting point for a low sequence, Sequence 14 can self-shape without the use of potions or rituals."
"In other words, if you really can't find the corresponding potion, you can try to take 3 potions of the 17th sequence of the Purgatory Pathway, such as the bloodhound, the Hades hound, and the bone hound, and if you successfully digest it, it is possible to synthesize Anubis who has been promoted to the 14th sequence of the Grim Reaper."
Ke Li pondered for a moment and said, "Then after drinking this pile of potions, are you still human?" ”
"Whether it's physical or psychological, you've completely transformed into a kobold, right?"
Wayne choked: "Just don't yell around, if 'Anubis' hears it, I won't help you." ”
"If you want to gain power, you must pay a price, especially the purgatory path that is biased towards combat expertise, and of course other paths and sequences are not much better. Indeed, there are many people who don't like to become aliens, and will compromise and choose certain means to transform into their original appearance. ”
"In short, the path of the extraordinary is the path of distortion and mutation, and if you don't want to reveal the specific sequence to me, I have to give you this advice - don't be ambitious, you don't know what you're pursuing, don't be reckless in pursuing the next sequence until you've digested the potion or completed the ritual, if you become a runaway, then no one knows what kind of virtuous thing you'll become."
"Oh, if you want to buy potions or extraordinary items, you can talk to me, but you don't seem to need it yet."
Colley got up and gave a gentlemanly salute as he prepared to leave: "Yes, Mr. Wayne, thank you for your kind answer. ”
"I'm not going to be away from Mammoth Horn anytime soon, and if I remember something, how can I contact you?"
Wayne also stood up: "You can come here directly to find me, if I'm not there, just tell the receptionist outside, I'll find a way to contact you as soon as I'm free." ”
"Also, try not to leak these things to ordinary people, this is the unwritten rule of the Extraordinary Realm, just remember it."
"If you're interested in the extraordinary, you can also take a look at the Mammoth Horn Club...... Don't look at me like that, I'm definitely not talking about it to earn a commission on membership fees, I just think you're in a stable condition and can make friends properly. ”
"In addition to the local social entertainment clubs, most of the other clubs are branches of multinational clubs, such as the branch of the Lion Avalon Club of the Griffon Empire in Mammoth Horn, which can provide extraordinary derivatives such as fake chalice and travel elixir to the extraordinary."
"However, ordinary people can only get some mental illness assistance from the male lion Avalon, and it is not easy to fool them."
"I see." Colly took his leave, tossing the scroll to the old man behind the counter.
He decided to drive the bullock cart to have breakfast and buy materials along the way.
Whether it's finding an experiment to take potions to verify safety, or using extraordinary props to make up for the shortcomings of combat effectiveness, it takes money.
After Colley left, Wayne scratched the owl on his shoulder:
"This guy is indeed a new extraordinary, my 'Wind Guidance' potion is showing signs of digestion again, reprocessing old knowledge and then transmitting it to a new extraordinary, it is indeed a fast and safe upgrade plan, maybe it won't be long before I can take the next potion."
"However, the concept of cards has long been widely spread, and it has always been difficult to determine whether the Tower path is friend or foe, and now there are people from the Purgatory path who have come to say that there is something wrong with the tower...... Oh, this kind of thankless work, it's better to leave it to others to have a headache. ”
