Chapter 29: Scholars and Readers
The knight named Zack is a member of the Castle Lord's Guard, and almost all of the Lord's Guard have Bright Guards and Secret Guards.
Mingwei is to help the city lord manage the stability of the city and the safety of the city lord's mansion, but in terms of power, it is far inferior to the police station under the direct control of the government. And the secret guard is a force that is directly controlled by the city lord and is not known to outsiders, so naturally it only obeys the orders of each city lord.
Wellington is not an extraordinary, but that doesn't mean he doesn't know about extraordinary, on the contrary, he has quite a few extraordinary. Zack in front of him is the "Flame Walker" of Sequence 8, the "Qiguang People" path of the "Constant Light and Burning Sun" Church.
"Yes, Lord Castle. Zach got up, looked at Wellington and said:
"The last time I investigated the person involved in Madame's affair, just yesterday, I learned his name from Benson, the captain of the Ming Guard. ”
Wellington didn't ask how he knew, he didn't care about the process, and just asked, "What's that person's name?"
"Ryan, who died thirteen years ago. ”
"How did you die. ”
"Nominally fighting with the bandits, he was killed by a single shot. ”
"Actually?"
"It's not clear. ”
"What other family does he have?"
His mother died twelve years ago, his father died four years ago, and his father had an 11-year-old adopted son, Chris, who was now a student at the University of Fedlenburg and previously worked in the carriage and horse shop of Daniel, a small merchant in the West End. ”
"Oh. Wellington raised an eyebrow, it was not easy for a coachman to study at university, but Wellington had little interest in him.
"Find out how that Ryan died...... It wasn't Sally's hand. With that, Wellington rubbed his temples with his fingers in annoyance and waved Zach to step back.
Federenburg University Library.
Today is the third time Chris has knocked on the office of the librarian, Professor Oliver.
The first time was to ask if the three strangely named creatures were real, and the second time was to ask if they could bring two friends to visit Oliver's house.
And today, it was Chris who wanted to know the accuracy of that potion recipe, and to determine if he had truly become extraordinary.
Oliver knows so much about the Extraordinary Occult that Chris wouldn't believe him if he wasn't Extraordinary. Besides, yesterday's Professor Oliver himself acquiesced in the matter.
Knock! Knock!
"Please come in. ”
"Good morning, Professor Oliver. ”
As early as Chris entered the library, Oliver already knew through his spirit that extraordinary people in the intermediate sequence would have a premonition about him through his own spirit, especially a premonition of danger.
Oliver, who was sitting on the couch in his office, put down the book in his hand and smiled, "It's such an impatient little guy to come here so early." ”
Motioning for Chris to sit on the chair across from his desk, Oliver snapped his fingers, only to see a blue halo that was imperceptible to ordinary people enveloping the room.
This is the spiritual wall that prevents other extraordinary beings from hearing it, and it was also there in yesterday's conversation.
Chris also noticed Professor Oliver's two snaps of his fingers, and subconsciously felt that a knowledgeable professor made this action, and from time to time he was a little ...... Unseemly.
However, Chris did not rush to ask questions, because there must be something he didn't know about what ability.
"Excuse me, Professor. I'm here not only to know the exact recipe for potions, but also to ask you some other questions. ”
"That potion recipe is correct, it's the 'doctor' of Sequence 9. Oliver replied, "That is, anyone who gathers the extraordinary materials above has the potential to become an extraordinary person in the 'Physician' path." ”
"How many extraordinary pathways are there?" asked Chris.
"This is also a question that most extraordinary people don't know, and I know of more than a dozen, each with a different name and potion recipe. As for sequence 9, it is the lowest sequence for each pathway. ”
"So what's the highest sequence? Sequence 1?"
Oliver looked at Chris in front of him with a serious expression: "This question...... The highest sequence of each path is sequence 0, which is the true God. ”
God!
Chris was shocked in his heart, and he felt that he knew a very important secret.
This is blasphemy!
Indeed, the fact that Sequence 0 is the true God is unknown to many middle and low-level extraordinary people, but Oliver, who is the most "reader" path, is different, and the "reader" path is already known for his knowledge.
Both "reader" and "scholar" represent knowledge itself.
It's just that "readers" are biased towards occult knowledge, and "scholars" are biased towards realistic scientific knowledge, and the two represent two sides of knowledge respectively.
Oliver is already an "astrologer" in Sequence 5, and he already knows more about the secrets than other extraordinaries of the same level. Coupled with his teacher and some other reasons, he will know the truth about the gods that is hidden from the world.
Oliver smiled and looked at Chris, who was pretending to be calm in front of him, intending not to continue the offensive topic:
"You just know about this matter yourself, and don't spread it easily. And when ordinary people and extraordinary people with fragile hearts know about it, it is easy for problems to arise. ”
Chris nodded, after knowing that the gods are real, he must be cautious about the affairs of the gods.
Seeing that Chris realized the importance of this matter, Oliver continued:
"Sequences 9 and 8 are low-level sequences. The ancient division only entered the intermediate sequence in sequence 6, but because there are few intermediate extraordinaires now, sequence 7 is also counted as an intermediate sequence. Generally speaking, Sequence 7 is a threshold that is not easy to cross.
After Sequence 4, his spirituality will change in nature and he will become a demigod. As the name suggests, it is a half-human and half-god existence, which begins to break away from human nature and give birth to divinity, which can initially reveal an incomplete mythological state. There are also angels and angel kings, which we will talk about later. ”
As he spoke, Oliver changed his words and smiled:
"If I'm not mistaken, you're already a Sequence 9 extraordinary, aren't you, Chris?"
This sentence made Chris's soul tremble.
His guess was correct, he was really extraordinary? Also, Professor Oliver could see it directly?
"I don't know...... I ...... before," Chris had guessed, but he was still a little shocked for a while, "I swallowed a dazzling stone by mistake before, and then I felt that something was wrong." ”
"What's wrong after that?" Oliver said kindly.
"All of a sudden, I noticed that my memory and comprehension had become so strong that I could barely remember it. ”
Chris just said that he changed after eating the stone by mistake, and he was born as an unusual person, and Chris subconsciously chose to hide it, after all, this may be related to the secret he crossed.
Although he is grateful to Professor Oliver for his selfless teaching, it is better not to let anyone know his greatest secret. As for whether the so-called true god knows it or not, that's not something he can worry about.
"It seems that the stone is an extraordinary property that has just been precipitated after the death of an extraordinary being, and you have eaten it by mistake in one day. ”
Oliver didn't ask about the detailed process, after all, swallowing rocks is not something that normal people can do, there must be other reasons.
Oliver then explained:
"The extraordinary properties left behind after the death of the Extraordinary One, if they remain intact, can be used as the main material for the Potions of the Extraordinary One's sequence. Auxiliary materials are only used to counteract the insane effects of the main materials.
"You can safely pass by taking the extraordinary properties without the concociling properties of the auxiliary materials, also because this is only the lowest sequence 9, plus some luck in it. Otherwise, it's very dangerous!"
To be able to complete the entire curriculum of a public school in half a year does require a strong memory and understanding, and the so-called geniuses and those great artists in the world all contain a small amount of extraordinary power in their bodies, which is a natural half of the sequence9.
Oliver had a slight suspicion that his talent might have something to do with extraordinary power, but now it's completely certain.
