Well, there was something wrong with that chapter yesterday and I revised it a bit. (The fastest update speed is on the Aishang Novel Network biquge.info)
This chapter may have to be changed later, but it will be fine in a moment......
――
"The psychic sorcerer Tong Guò is constantly studying his own mental consciousness to discover a wider range of powerful spiritual powers. They meditate on their memories and the nature of their memories, argue with fragments of their personalities, and delve into every dark corner of their hearts. "Knowing yourself f" is not just a maxim for a telemagician, but also a path to great power......"
The beautiful characters slipped into his eyes one by one, and Edward felt that his heart seemed to be beating faster and faster.
Needless to say, this is a book about psychic powers...... It was also clearly a treasure beyond Edward's hopes.
For a new Psychic Warlock, the lack of a suitable guide has always been a big reason for the slow progress of his power in this area - although the Spirit Crystal Servant can occasionally give him a little advice, due to the random nature of the memory fragments, you can't expect this constructed creature to take on the responsibilities of a teacher.
And the author of this book is obviously not comparable to the spirit crystal servant who showed up everywhere with a little memory of half-hanging, and many aspects of the record are far better than what the spirit crystal servant had told Edward before. It's more detailed, and it's more realistic......
For example, after turning a few pages, Edward found a line of familiar characters.
'Psionic charm: With a little psychic energy, you can make a person who originally didn't have any affection for him become his friend, and this so-called friendship is not particularly strong, but it is used in certain situations - such as buying and selling, signing a contract. As well as some places that need to communicate, they can save a lot of time and energy. It can even be used in some people who are enemies to cause confusion. ’
'Unlike magic, which charms humans, humanoids, and monsters...... Several spells are divided step by step, and the ability to charm in the psionic energy is a simple one, and if you want to increase your strength, you only need to pay additional psionic points. For an additional two points, you can affect animals, spirits, giants, magical beasts, or humanoid monsters. For an additional 4 psionic points, you can kill all creatures, even dragons, elementals, or otherworldly creatures. It's weird, it's better. If you're willing to pay a few more Psionic Points. You can also increase the duration to a period of several days. ’
"This technique is called Burning Psionic Energy, though. For a rookie like you, it doesn't mean much, even if you are now, that bit of psionic energy can only affect animals and magical beasts, because this way will be limited by your power level,"
The Spirit Squire grunted disapprovingly in Edward's consciousness, as if trying to prove his worth. But the Psychic Warlock was clearly in no mood to pay attention to it right now-
After a few chapters of introduction-like introductions, the characters of the parchment formally refer to that mysterious world, and the gaze jumps from line to line of characters. Edward studied the forces that stirred his heart...... Even if it was just that, he felt that there was something in his head, constantly agitating, expanding, forming entities, condensing and expanding.
Time passed slowly, with the sound of turning the page.
It's so silent that it's hard to experience. But in the end, it was the rustle of the sheepskin on the twentieth sound. Came to an end.
Edward's brow twitched...... The smooth flower-style text in the field of vision suddenly broke between the halfway point of a psionic account - it seemed that the author was disturbed by some kind of interference. He stopped writing, and the simple sheepskin binding had already turned the last page between his fingers.
"No?" said Edward to himself, as if in disbelief, twisting the heavy sheepskin. Unfortunately, the soft leather is not separated by this, only the gray, with some friction marks on the back, testifies to a certain Cheng dù reality.
But Edward subconsciously turned the page again, and then swept his gaze over the surrounding shelves, and took down a few pages of parchment next to him to look at it...... In the end, he even wandered around between all the shelves, and seemed to be unwilling to accept this reality.
sighed. He looked up, and for a moment seemed a little stunned......
Then he found himself sighing a lot lately – and it seemed predictable that more and more would be.
When I was young...... When he was a child, he once heard a plausible lie that teachers had intentionally or unintentionally tampered with the words of the sages and lured many students into it. Later, after he knew the true meaning of this sentence, he couldn't help but have some doubts: "With an end, there is no end, and you will lose yourself...... Even if you can never finish learning, you should only get closer, so what's the point?"
But then he found out that the words of the sages were indeed true, and the truth was extremely bewildering, for as he knew more and more, he found that he did not know more and more things......
In this way, can you still achieve the goal that is faintly visible in your heart, but has not yet touched the edge?
"There are too many mediocre people in this world who complain about paying but don't get anything in return, in fact, what they pay is simply pitiful, especially in the acquisition of strength, only if they dare to challenge all kinds of seemingly insurmountable limits again and again, can they be regarded as giving...... However, it is only a beginner's process. ”
A reminder was sent from the spiritual words of the spirit crystal servant -- it became a little low, but it became more and more shocking: "If you want to become a strong person, don't be in a hurry to complain when you don't get a point for ten points, but believe in the achievements you will achieve, and give yourself an unswerving goal, so that your state of mind can be firm; if you don't believe that you can go to the end, how can you step through those difficult and strange peaks? Therefore, when the emperor of Shu Han was a child, he would point to the big tree at the door and say, "This is my Huangluo umbrella cover" When a khan of the steppe was a child, he would say to his companions, "One day, the world will be our pasture." The sphinx-like golden retriever always said "My journey is the sea of stars", which shows that the more excellent the stronger. The more confident you have to be to defeat a qiē,"
"Hey, it's not this world...... You, you guy, while I'm not paying attention, and peeking into my memory?"
"Hmph, do you know that your current mental state is quite dangerous--when exploring your own spirit. Always remember to be cautious and always introspective, so that you don't let the turbulence of the spirit disturb your mind and take control of the qiē around you...... The power of the spirit can only be manipulated by the existence of genius. Those who come into contact with it should be cautious, cautious, and reverent, and never leave anything to chance. ”
A simple conversation with the Spirit Crystal seemed to soothe the fluttering mind a little, and Edward shook his head. I found that I seemed to be really awake a lot.
He flipped through the thin book in his hand again, and made sure that he had seen it completely, and he sighed, and put it on the shelf, an inconspicuous corner, and covered it with some old leather scrolls. Then go back to the front shelf. I began to slowly sort out the messy sheepskins and books, and tidy them up little by little.
It's just that in my heart, other thoughts are turning.
Although that volume was only an unfinished work, for Edward. It's more than just a guide - the young psychic had been conservative that his power was a heresy among the human race, and that it might even be invisible to the sun. Therefore, he always has a trembling attitude towards the use of psionic energy, and at the same time, the description of psionic energy should not officially appear in a certain aspect of the text. It should only be the result of research on certain monsters.
But now it seems that the situation is clearly not as bad as he imagined.
The time when this booklet was written in hand. It doesn't seem to be very old, that is. The research on this faction should be recent, and the researcher himself may be a mage in the academy...... In that way, your own path should be much smoother.
Well, maybe it's very likely, it's this Albert Mentor?
Thinking about things, his hands were a little unstable, and in a moment of distraction, a seal was scattered, and the sheepskin fluttered and flew into a patch! The dander and dust spread, and the heavy smell made Edward choke for a while. 'Meow ......' he cursed in a low voice, reaching out to pick it up, only to notice with some surprise that his fingers were trembling because of this.
Then, as if awakened by this, tinnitus and temple pain followed, followed by a series of subtle rumblings in the abdomen......
Edward stretched out his hand and rubbed his forehead, only to find that this was actually quite normal The magic hourglass of the table showed that it was already evening, that is, he had been working continuously for another hour in the blink of an eye from the duel, to meeting the mentor, to cleaning and tidying, but he had not properly paid tribute to the Five Organs Temple.
With a self-deprecating laugh, Edward reached for the water bladder and jerky, but the next moment he shook his head and turned and walked out of the room.
For he suddenly remembered that he had unknowingly eaten dried meat and water for two or three days—although he had become accustomed to this diet when hunting in the forest, it did not mean that he liked it. And after being stuffy in this gloomy tower for so long, he really needed a breath of fresh air. Walk and jump in the sun.
Unfortunately, when he walked out of the gate of the magic tower and took in a breath of cool air, he noticed that the red glow in the sky had begun to fade into a deep blue, and three or two twinkling stars announced the arrival of night.
"Meow. Edward cursed lowly.
Although it is one of the most prosperous cities, the night in Romandy is not so interesting...... In addition to hotels, shops will close in the evening, not to mention those shops of magic items, and in this era when technology is not yet developed, the way of entertainment is relatively simple, nothing more than eating and drinking, singing and dancing, but those are all games that need to be paved with gold coins, for the current Edward, a bit of luxury and meaningless,
Go to Baroque Night Rain, well, I'm afraid it can only be him drinking and bragging, nothing new, and that guy may not stay in the hotel quietly, maybe he has been looking for fun everywhere, or going to be a mercenary to make money, so Lisa's girl? Forget it, what is the trouble with the little girl during this time period? What's more, that girl is mysterious. Too much contact may cause more trouble......
"Hey, isn't that Lord Edward?"
After thinking about it for a while, he couldn't help but feel a little discouraged, because there were too few people he knew in this city, so he hesitated, and he passed through the teleportation circle at the gate, but the dizziness had not yet passed. But suddenly he heard a noise, and it seemed that someone was calling his name.
He raised his gaze slightly, and noticed a familiar or unfamiliar face not far away—a dozen or so imps of his time were gathering near a few carriages on the side of the street. It seemed that he was preparing for the action of some group, and the voice that spoke to him was the only one among the righteous young disciples who seemed to have a good relationship with him.
So he hesitated. Edward walked over.
"It's really not easy to see you, you don't seem to have attended the lecture at all?" Nodding slightly, the young nobleman's affection always seemed to be so enthusiastic, "Oh, by the way, I haven't congratulated you on your victory in the gladiatorial fight before." How about the mentor is not difficult for you?"
However, Edward's eyes flickered, and he only tugged at the corners of his mouth...... Not far away, Miguel was also standing under the carriage. Obviously, he wouldn't like to hear about gladiatorial fights - although the contract seemed a bit of a joke, but since it had been fulfilled, he should be considered Edward's servant, and no matter how many obligations he could fulfill, it always sounded harsh.
But the young nobleman didn't seem to care—or rather, thought it was a big deal?" How about coming with us?" he graciously invited.
Edward was silent all the way because he needed to listen. Listening to the same carriage, several little children were discussing excitedly. Legend has it that the fruit of a certain celebrity's daughter is so intoxicating and intoxicating, how the ass of a certain countess is famous for its rippling waves, or which young lady in a family has reached the age of being able to pick it, and no matter how old it is, it doesn't have that pure taste.
"He still knows a lot about these little things......
After listening to such words all the way, it was not until he got out of the car that Edward quietly sighed, although he had already heard of the precociousness of people in this era, but he did not expect such an exaggeration
Miguel beside him muttered in a low voice, "What's so strange about this, in Romanty, or in the entire province of Leon...... The aristocratic young master, who is still twelve years old, has already begun to be ridiculed, and this age is constantly getting smaller...... It is said that the guys with royal blood have at least double-digit women at the age of age, as for those guys, although they can't be compared with those nobles with strong backgrounds, but after all, when it comes to Romante, if you haven't seen the charm of the Cascade necklace, wouldn't it be as regrettable as killing the dragon but not entering the dragon's lair?
At the age of nine? a double-digit woman?
Edward couldn't help but grin mockingly, if what these guys said was true, then the protagonists of the story probably wouldn't be able to endure this kind of glamorous happiness for a few years...... Because according to the theory of human reproduction, after the age of thirty, they are already in their last years
The wide interface was already full of carriages of all colors, many of which seemed to have eye-catching badges and amazing luxury, while the carriages of the Clough family would be outstanding at any time and place, following the same principle as Edward's familiar plane, the more prominent the car, the more conspicuous it would be placed in the most conspicuous position outside the tavern by the successful tavern that was well versed in the rules of business.
Here, not a single fart will come out and accuse the nobles of inaction - you can spit in a place where no one sees it, and use any YY way to relieve your displeasure, but even if only one word reaches the nobles, no, their dog's ears, then the lightest punishment that awaits you is a bloody fat beating, and you will have to pay at least three silver coins to barely heal properly, and before the treatment, it is very likely that you will need to stay in the cage for a day or two.
As for Yan zhòng, few people were able to climb out of that black prison alive, and they are interested in describing what he had suffered.
Here, scolding the government is not an easy errand with a few keyboard strokes and mouse clicks, and it is better not to try lightly because it is not ......
"Compared with this gang, what kind of work-mall-management-law brigade's violence-force-enforcement-law is simply an angel's whisper......"
The two-story building may not be the size of Edward's Hilton Hotel in Poplar Town. However, once you step through the crimson door, you will understand the meaning of heaven on earth...... Compared to the exterior decoration, the interior is countless times more magnificent, and it is the first time that Edward has seen such a beautiful room decoration since coming to this world.
In fact, in his extremely poor lingua franca, he could only search for the word "beautiful" in his meagre vocabulary, although it was still a certain distance from the real elegance and comfort in his impression.
The hall does not have the obscene atmosphere that a brothel usually leaks, the handmade wool carpet, the ornate chairs carved from ivory inlaid with high-quality spar grains, the six crystal glass chandeliers that illuminate the hall as bright as day, and the portraits of beautiful ladies hanging on the walls, this is clearly a very aristocratic hall.
