It didn't take long for the four uniformed inspectors to come to the academy without alarming most people, and the inspectors in the lead of them had met Brian once.

"Mr. Morris, it's been a long time, I haven't had time to meet you before, now let me introduce myself, my name is Josephine Hurt, and I am the inspector of Puze City!"

Looking at the middle-aged man in front of him, Brian remembered the day he went with Arnold and Ms. Catherine to learn about the "lost luck case", and it was the inspector in front of him who introduced the details of the case.

Brian stretched out his right hand, shook hands with Inspector Josephine, and said, "Brian Morris, it's my honor to meet you."

It is said that it is to cooperate with the finishing work, but in fact, there is very little that needs to be done, just clean up the scene and take Professor Vader Occam's body away, without Brian's help at all, his role here is to protect the scene while the inspector is still coming.

With that done, Josephine returned to the Inspectorate with the other three inspectors, while Brian returned to 38 Don Cape Street, "The Catherine Show."

At this time, the night sky was dotted with stars, a red full moon shone brightly, and the door of the performance troupe was sparsely opened, unlocked. Brian knew that it was the door that the captain had left for him. He opened the door into the parlor, locked the door with the lock on the counter, and walked apprehensively towards the backyard.

In a room in the backyard, Brian saw the crowd. At this point, Arnold's eyes were half wide and his body was lying weakly on a bed. And next to him, Lulu Senior, who has green hair and green eyes and wears a pale green dress, is constantly mixing some materials.

Lady Catherine and Mr. Cole were far away from the bedside, discussing something at a small table. Finding Brian back, Lady Catherine suddenly said:

"Don't worry, Brian, Arnold is out of danger, and he just needs to recuperate for a while. But this matter has not been completely resolved, and there is much more that needs to be done. ”

Hearing that Arnold was no longer in danger, Brian was relieved. After glancing at the busy elf Lulu Senior, he forced a smile and sat down across from Lady Catherine.

"Won't it disturb the patient to chat here?"

At this time, Cole, who was dressed in a gray coat, smiled: "Little Brian, professionals are not as fragile as you think, it seems that you still need to learn a lot, I can teach you in my free time."

"It's my pleasure, Mr. Cole." Brian laughed heartily. For him, who is still a novice in the transcendent realm, it would be great if someone could guide him.

But he quickly thought about the problem that he might not have enough time......

It seems that I have to give up my studies at the academy for the time being.

When the two had finished talking, Ms. Catherine took out an ancient parchment scroll from her body and inserted it appropriately. She asked in a languid but serious tone, "Brian, has anyone else seen this scroll besides you and Professor Taryn Raymond?"

Speaking of this, Brian suddenly remembered that going to the academy tonight was originally to deal with this problem. He shook his head and said, "I don't know, when the scroll was translated, it was only me and Professor Taryn, and I don't know if anyone else has seen it after that."

Then he suddenly remembered something, and asked with concern, "By the way, Ms. Catherine, is there something wrong with Professor Tyron?"

"I've had some impact, but I've cleared it out. Also, I've changed Professor Taryn Raymond's impression of scrolls, and if he asks you about scrolls, don't answer them, just say you don't know. Lady Catherine paused, and was about to continue, when she was interrupted by a sudden cough.

The voice was weak and weak, and the source came from the rear, and everyone immediately understood what was going on, and they all came to the bedside.

"Ahem! Cough! Ahem!" Arnold, who was lying on the bed, covered his mouth with one hand, woke up from the coma in a daze, saw everything around him clearly, and said with a wry smile: "It's good to be alive!"

The first to ask was the nature spirit Lulu Senior, who looked Arnold up and down carefully for a while, and then pinched a few body parts with her hands before she spoke: "How is your body feeling, is there anything uncomfortable?"

Arnold thought for a moment and said, "The body is fine, and it is gradually recovering. However, when I was unconscious, I dreamed of strange images, a twisted forest hidden in the night, where each tree was thicker than a human and had a certain level of activity, which would attack people and animals. ”

A frown furrowed on Lulu's delicate face, as a nature elf, she was very sensitive to all forests. This kind of sensitivity is not mutual sensitivity, but more of the elves' love and concern for nature.

"Twisted Forest? Places never heard of. ”

Brian said suddenly: "This description is very similar to the forest outside the cemetery, and the big trees at that time will prevent me from leaving, I wonder if this is the activity that Arnold said?"

Arnold recalled, and suddenly realized that the two were very similar, and nodded. Then he realized that he had just ignored this for some unknown reason.

Is it affected?

When everyone was puzzled, Cole, who had a wealth of knowledge in the field of occultism, said in an old and deep voice: "It should be influenced by the spiritual level, and there are two possibilities. One is the inability to let go of the past, which leads to the occurrence of this dream; The second is that he has been influenced in the field of occultism. ”

"Don't worry too much, most of the latter can't have a deep impact, and can only gradually accumulate spiritual imprints through dreams again and again, so as to achieve some simpler goals, such as having a serious illness."

"The former is a mental illness, and there is no need to worry about this because we have professional psychologists."

Ms. Catherine, who is a "hypnotist" and also a "psychiatrist", nodded and looked at Arnold: "In the future, I will conduct a mental examination on you once a day."

After confirming the spiritual matter, Lulu picked up a bottle of dark purple liquid from the cabinet next to her and walked to Arnold: "Drink this, the growth potion that has just been prepared."

Without waiting for Arnold to agree, Lulu covered his head with one hand and poured the potion into it. After the potion had been drunk thoroughly, Arnold gasped for breath and asked with a horrified expression:

"How can there be a growth potion that is dark purple! What did you add to it? ”

"Don't worry! Feel relieved! No problem!" Lulu reached out and gently stroked Arnold's chest, comforting, "I just added a little bit of Lajol octopus ink, you should know, it's a very good material for recovery!"

……

After making sure that there was nothing wrong with Arnold, Lady Catherine pulled out Brian and Cole and went to the Inspectorate together before dawn.

Entering the Inspector's Hall, Director Josephine Hurt was soon greeted by him. He looked at Lady Catherine and said, "Sir, it's already set up."

"Well, let's go!" Lady Catherine waved lazily and led the group forward, soon to the basement of the Inspectorate's Hall.

The basement was empty at the moment, the only door was closed, and only a few hanging lamps still glowed softly.

Lady Catherine stepped forward, opened the door to the basement, and walked straight inside. Mr. Cole was silent and walked in silently. Seeing this, Brian followed behind the two with a puzzled expression. Josephine, the head of the hall, stopped where he was, and did not enter.

Entering the room, Brian looked left and right, his expression a little confused. The room was clean and tidy, there was not much to put in place, except for a few lighting lamps, except for a few lamps for lighting, only a high platform was placed in the center. On the high platform lay an old man covered in blood, who was none other than the professor of history, Vader Occam.

But this was not strange to Brian, who was surprised that Professor Vader had a harp in blue and painted with detailed patterns.

"Is this some kind of ritual?" Encountering something he didn't understand well, Brian subconsciously thought of the occult.

Seeing Brian's confusion, Lady Catherine stopped in front of the high platform and explained, "This Professor Vader is a professional, and when a professional dies, his career card that provides extraordinary power will be automatically discharged, and we are here now to recover the career card."

Brian walked behind, and slowly came to the high platform, looking at Professor Vader's corpse calmly. He had met this professor a few times, but he didn't have the opportunity to communicate in depth, and now he naturally doesn't have much emotion, and some just lament the fragility of life.

Then he recalled the moment when he got the "Magician" class card, through Ms. Catherine's words. Slowly, he realized that something was wrong: "Lady Catherine, you said that we are here to recover the career card, but what about the career card?"

Cole smiled, picked up the azure harp, and said, "This is the career card we're recycling, but it's in a different way now, which we call the seal." An item that has extraordinary abilities, but has a negative effect that can cause a lot of trouble. ”

Ms. Catherine nodded: "After the death of a professional, his career card will form a seal with extraordinary abilities of the career card according to the personality, characteristics, memories and other factors of the previous owner."

"This kind of seal can also make ordinary people become professionals, but there is a great possibility that they will be affected by the spiritual remnants of the previous master, turn into crazy monsters, or even be directly replaced by the former. To eliminate these negative effects, the seals need to be cleaned up and turned back into pure class cards. ”

"Remember what Arnold said?" You're one of the lucky few', this sentence is not just because you mastered extraordinary abilities as soon as you became a pro, but more because you directly obtained a pro card, which is almost the only ...... in my transcendent experience"

Brian listened carefully, nodding his head from time to time to show that he understood, and at the last moment he was glad that he was lucky.

After explaining the question, Lady Catherine let out a long tired breath and said no more. As for the details of the seal, Cole will continue to explain.

Seeing that the words in his ears stopped, Cole, who was dressed in a gray coat, stopped his hand and looked at the harp, and said to Brian: "There are many ways to determine the abilities and negative effects of the seal, the most common and the most common is to rely on the knowledge of the class card and the owner to speculate. ”

"The second is to use extraordinary abilities to acquire, such as the 'inspection' of the 'craftsman', the 'groping' of the 'explorer', and the 'detection' of the 'detective'. or the divination power of a 'soothsayer', a 'scholar', all of which can be ......"

Finally, Cole gave Lady Catherine the harp and a whistle he had obtained from Professor Vader:

"Both of these are seals, and the harp's ability is to play music that affects the minds of others, the simplest is to resonate or interfere, and the negative effect is that the user will sing unconsciously. The sealing method is to use it to play music every 12 hours, otherwise the harp will automatically play and sing songs that affect others. ”

"The ability of the whistle is to drive the dead person, or the corpse of an animal. The side effect is that it needs to be fed with 250 ml of fresh blood from itself for each use, otherwise it will not be usable. The sealing method is to provide 250 ml of fresh blood per day for feeding, which can be done without one's own blood. If it is not provided, it will drive the dead corpse to search for blood on its own. ”

"Got it, I'll report it later." Lady Catherine nodded, and then said to Brian, "Starting today, I will teach you some basic fighting skills and firearms skills, so that you can also protect yourself during this period when you have not fully mastered the supernatural abilities."
