Chapter 13: New Directions for Investigation
A few hours later.
Inside the school hospital.
"Your problem is more serious, I'll prescribe you a few courses of peace charms. If you can't get up and drink the rune water, I can make the rune water into a drip and inject it directly into an IV. ”
The school doctor, Xia Li, said to the six people on the hospital bed who were covered in bandages and looked like mummies.
"Woo woo woo." A mummy whimpered.
"Why, this Duncan would...... So powerful? Another mummy said.
Duncan...... Give me ...... On one's mind! Everything will not be ...... my cousin Spare your ......" another taller mummy said in a female voice.
……
The next afternoon.
Duncan arrives at Russell's booth, and Russell opens the Silent Realm to listen to Duncan's account of what happened yesterday.
"Another cultist infiltrated the academy? is a negative arrogant character with the support of his brother and forces behind him? Russell squinted, "It feels like this plot is a little familiar." ”
"This kind of thing is like this, which will cause the fate of the surrounding people to develop in certain directions." Duncan explained, "I can only say that there is an overlap between your anomalous constitution and certain life attributes. ”
Changing the natal character, is this the ability of the senior students of the astrological and numerology department? It's quite an incredible ability. Russell's thoughts diverged.
Duncan continued:
"After figuring out how the infectious disease spreads, the faculty and staff in charge of operation and maintenance and computers organized a unified decontamination ceremony on the official website and the school's computers to stop the occult flu from spreading.
"Of course, the original infected student is still there."
It seems that the occult flu incident in the academy will soon come to an end, and the next key is to catch the real culprit and figure out what they are doing it...... Russell bowed his head lightly, and asked with a straight face:
"How? Did the Birdbeak Doctor catch it? Does he have anything to do with the cultists who infiltrated the Academy? ”
"I couldn't get in touch with Dr. Birdbeak, and he didn't know where he had gone. I tried to find him by means of divination and prophecy, but the results were vague. It shows that this occult disease ritual in the primary courtyard may involve relatively high-level things, otherwise my divination would not have been so disturbed. Duncan replied.
At the mention of this, the two sides understood, and the atmosphere was a little depressing.
The conspiracy involved behind being able to disrupt the predictions of the world's number one prophet is definitely not small.
This is also an unavoidable shortcoming of divination and prophecy abilities, which are too easily disturbed and too easy to give ambiguous, vague, and misleading conclusions.
"Is there any other direction of investigation?" Russell hurriedly asked.
"I watched the sky at night last night, and vaguely felt a hint of fate, you leave the academy at 8 o'clock tomorrow night, go to the southwest of the dense forest, and go all the way to the depths of the dense forest, you will definitely find something, related to the occult disease that is prevalent in the primary courtyard. I don't know exactly what I'll find. Duncan said in a deep voice.
"This is a mission, and when I get back, I will reward you based on the information you get!"
"Mr. Headmaster, why don't you go yourself?" Russell asked.
When the question came out, he had a vague answer in his mind.
I'm afraid that this fateful opportunity has something to do with him, and only he can meet it!
"Because I have a class tomorrow night at this time, a class on probability theory and mathematical statistics." Duncan replied.
Belch......
"You astrology and numerology majors still need to learn this?" Russell asked.
"yes, otherwise how can we improve the prediction level of our soothsayers." Duncan spread his hands out and made a gesture of course.
"Okay, I accept the task." Russell nodded.
With his current third-year strength, and two powerful spirit body auxiliaries, even in the dense forest, as long as he didn't deliberately provoke particularly powerful supernatural creatures, it was almost impossible to be dangerous.
However, Russell was a little worried when he thought of the seal that had been loosened on his body and the abnormal physique that had slowly regained effect.
"Mr. Headmaster, can you give me a little bit of assistance to keep me safe?"
"You and your covenant spirit will return safely." Duncan expressed his blessing in a factual tone, "It could have given you a fate, but it would have clashed with your own abnormal physique and had a bad impact, so forget it." ”
Can you lend your life to others and put it on others?
Russell felt more and more that although the headmaster was short, his abilities were indeed strange and unpredictable enough, beyond the ordinary:
"Mr. Headmaster, is this the ability of the senior of the Department of Astrology and Numerology?"
"Yes, the core course of the fourth year of the Department of Astrology and Numerology, numerology." Duncan didn't show off in the slightest, it was just a realm he had already transcended.
"Mr. Headmaster, what are your qualities? Can you tell me the names or effects of a few of them? Russell became more and more curious about the world's number one numerologist.
"I'll take a look." Duncan said, took out a small book from his army-green dimensional schoolbag and flipped through it:
"Domineering president, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, Dihua halo, same-sex peach blossom luck, guaranteed shipment, buy 10 get 1 free, the best non-chief, the king of green hats, crow's mouth, go out to pick up things, transport captain, appetizer, small transparent......
"Oh, yes, and this - the 2-in-1 Super Life Personality I made, the Heavenly Scare Lone Star and the Courtesan!"
Russell made great efforts to keep his expression consistent and indifferent.
……
The next night.
Downstairs in the dormitory of the junior college.
Russell is about to leave the academy and head to the Jungle to find the fate mentioned by Mr. Headmaster, and check his preparations before leaving.
In the album of the magic phone, several photos of the soul dementor storing spells have been prepared-
"Invisibility" from Clara, "Teleportation" from the God of Lights, "Summoning Yellow Turban Lux" from Subway, and "Dark Magic" from Shadow Fiend......
With the improvement of Russell's spiritual level, the level of the magic device mobile phone is also improving, and even if the soul photograph imitates the second-grade level spells, it has the effect of the original version!
In the dimensional waist bag, the black witchcraft spell reduction charm and transformation charm obtained more than half a year ago are still there, and the spiritual energy has been preserved by the sealing ceremony in the Book of Shadows, and there has been no serious loss of mana.
Invisibility Cloak where only clothes can be invisible, Wishing Lamp, Flying Potion where the potion itself can fly, Invisible Flying Potion...... Supernatural items with different functions are stored in the appropriate area of the dimensional waist bag and can be accessed at any time.
- After storing the supernatural potion for a year, the effect will be greatly reduced, and now the potion in the dimensional waist bag is refined by Russell who later repurchased the materials.
"How? Wind chimes, are you ready? Are you ready to go? ”
Russell turned his head to look at the ghost of a gray-haired girl behind him.
"Wait a minute, wait a minute, I'm almost done with this soul crystal. This soul hedron is so delicious, I want to taste it a little longer. ”
The translucent body of the wind chime contained a black crystal the size of a fingernail, and this crystal town continuously released translucent black energy, filling the entire spirit body of the wind chime.
As the core employee of the haunted house, the academy pays Wind Chime a salary of one soul spar per month.
This gemstone is precious to spirit creatures, and after a few days of absorption, it can permanently increase the soul energy, increasing the strength and rank of the spirit body.
"Speaking of which, it's been a few months since the wind chimes reached the half-step third-grade level. Having absorbed the fears of so many soul crystals and transcendentals, I wonder if there are any signs of being promoted to the third-grade level? ”
As if hearing Russell's question, a short line of text appeared in the phone's magic device.
[Your No. 1 contract spirit, Wind Chime, has not yet realized the opportunity to be promoted to the third grade. Please keep up the good work. 】
Belch......
It didn't take long for Russell to leave the back door of the academy with the wind chimes possessed on his body and the sleeping demon on his mobile phone, and went deep into the dense forest in the southwest direction.
In the distance, a raven made of obsidian flapped its wings and quietly followed Russell from the air.
