The Whispering Verses Chapter 14: Four elements
The two came to the second floor, which was also covered with dust. Instead of heading to the third floor, they looked towards the corridor. There are windows on one side of the corridor and a row of rooms on the other. The main building of the sanatorium has a row of concave characters, and now the two people are in the center of the long side.
The doctor said:
"Miracle, if you can engrave [miracle] spiritual runes, it must be golden spiritual runes. All [miracles] come from the stories and power of the gods. Remember, the five righteous gods are the only remaining good gods. ”
"Only?"
Xia De is very good at grasping the key points and understands the reason why he first came into contact with "miracles".
"Yes, there were many gods in the past era. If you join the academy, you will have this part of the basic course in the seminary. But most of the powerful gods in the past have disappeared, maybe they fell or they left. , Maybe it's a seal, but in short, there are only five good gods left here who are called righteous gods, and the gods can interfere with the material world. They are not just symbols. Don't think of them as powerful ring warlocks. They are real. High-dimensional existence... I hope you can understand what I mean."
Xia De's mouth trembled, of course he understood.
"Most of the ring warlocks in the Church of the Righteous God specialize in the element of [miracle]. But apart from the Righteous God, the old gods of the past have left many traces in the world. If you come into contact with those traces and know the stories of the old gods, in 'other With my help, you can also extract the [Miracle] Spirit Rune."
The doctor finally mentioned the "voice in the head" that is essential for ring warlocks.
"The voice in your head is actually another you. It is you who is not the real you, but it is you."
The doctor emphasized this concept again, and the woman's laughter came to Shade's mind again.
"This is the [Miracle] spirit rune I engraved when I was in the first ring."
A thick white fog appeared behind the doctor again, part of the brass wheel of destiny was exposed, and golden spiritual runes were revealed.
Xia De also endured the pain in his temples and interpreted the runes, which meant [dust], which he had seen once before.
"The miracle left behind by the old **** [God of Dust], also known as the [Earthly Serpent], is that I learned about the story through the academy, and therefore obtained the spiritual rune."
The golden light shone on the ground in front of them, and a series of footprints appeared in front of them:
"But I am not suitable for this miracle. I just developed such a simple thaumaturgy. The power developed by the spirit rune is called thaumaturgy, and the general power of the ring wizard is called thaumaturgy. This will be introduced in the course. ”
The two of them followed the footprints and looked like their target was on the second floor.
“But you have to remember that gods are dangerous. It’s not that they are malicious towards humans, but that they themselves are too high-status. Contact with any information related to gods may cause confusion due to the nature of gods. The pressure will cause harm to oneself, just like looking at the sun will hurt the eyes."
The doctor reminded and said:
"Blasphemy, if you can engrave [blasphemy] spiritual runes, it must be silver spiritual runes. All [blasphemy] comes from those filthy concepts and evil gods. But remember, it is not the five righteous gods, not those who disappeared The old **** of existence, but the old **** of existence
In addition to the five powerful good gods, there are also a small number of evil gods that have survived to this day. But these gods are relatively weak, terrible things born of concepts and blasphemy. They are truly gods, and they are gods recognized by the Orthodox Church. It's just that their power is far weaker than that of Zhengshen.
This is not a boast of the Orthodox Church, but a fact. ”
"In other words, the righteous gods are the powerful good gods that are recognized and exist, and the old gods are the good gods that have disappeared, the evil gods, and the existing evil gods. Are evil gods scary?"
Xia De concluded.
"Of course it is scary. Although they are weaker than the five righteous gods, for ordinary people, even if they know their power, they will go crazy because of it. The main task of the church is to suppress the occasional evil gods and There are always cultists. However, [blasphemy] spiritual runes are not excluded. In addition to evil gods, some knowledge of the Fourth Age can also extract [blasphemy]. Hidden books record those terrible stories, which is also the mainstream extraction. [blasphemy] elements. [Miracle] and [blasphemy] are both related to God, and must be related to God.”
We are currently in the Sixth Age, which is not recorded in any of the books that Shade has seen. The books and calendars only record the year. But Shade knew that this was the Sixth Age, and the voice in his head showed this for the first time.
This seems to once again illustrate the specialness of the other party.
"This is the Sixth Age, and the Fourth Age is the era of darkness and chaos. It is very scary, extremely scary..."
The doctor said softly, as if he was afraid of disturbing something. In the thick fog behind him, the silver spiritual rune flickered, still only revealing part of the life ring. Shade interpreted the beautiful rune as [emotion].
"[Emotion], a very powerful spiritual rune, originated from a terrible story in the Fourth Age, which I still can't forget... I used this element to develop a variety of thaumaturgy, the simplest of which , is to explore the emotional creatures around you."
Silver light flashed on the brass life ring, and the doctor had the answer:
"Inside, he is scared. It seems he knows we are coming."
It is impossible for the enemy not to know that the doctor has no intention of hiding his voice.
"If the voice in your head keeps reminding you that there is [blasphemy] nearby, don't think about it, turn around and run immediately. This factor is very fatal."
The doctor continues to popularize basic knowledge and moves forward with Shade. Shade also understood why he only had "blasphemy" but no contact.
"Enlightenment, if you can engrave [Enlightenment] spiritual runes, it must be brass-colored spiritual runes. All [Enlightenment] comes from civilization itself. Yes, civilization, historical legends, religions and heroic stories, and even Fictional knight adventure novels, through certain media, can extract [enlightenment], which is an element of civilization and symbolizes the light of our world."
Although it is easy to say, it certainly cannot be done by reading knight novels.
The fire that occurs when a stranger observes the world is precisely the reason why he comes into contact with the element of "enlightenment" at his doorstep.
"And not just our civilization, not even just human civilization, but also civilizations in past eras. [Enlightenment] may coexist with [blasphemy] and [miracle]. After all, the history of civilization cannot be without the power of gods. Gods We have never taken our eyes off civilization."
In the thick fog behind the doctor, the corner of the life ring was revealed again, and the brass rune [Sweet Dream] was revealed:
"This is the spiritual rune [Sweet Dream]. It is not convenient to explain its origin for the time being. I am very compatible with it. Now I will use thaumaturgy to make the other person fall into a dream."
A little light shone out, and Xia De could not see the specific effect, but he believed that the doctor would not miss it.
They finally stopped moving forward and turned into an unmarked room. The room was clean but no one was seen.
The doctor took his time:
"The last is Whisper. If you can engrave the [Whisper] spiritual rune, it must be a black iron-colored spiritual rune. [Whisper] has a wide range of sources. The general view is that [Enlightenment] is the light of civilization, then [Whisper] 】It is the darkness of the world. The whisper is almost a natural phenomenon, and it is obtained through contact with the knowledge of evil gods and [relics]."
The detective died from a certain [relic], so Shade was able to access the "Whisper" element when he died.
The black iron rune was revealed, its meaning is [False Reality], which is the most complex of the four spiritual runes displayed by the doctor.
"This spiritual rune was harvested a year ago when solving the Secret Keeper-level, that is, Level 3 [Relic] incident. I don't quite understand its power. It is currently mainly used to dispel illusions."
Under the light of the black iron runes, the clean room gradually revealed its true appearance. Newspapers and wooden boards sealed the exposed windows, and the floor and walls seemed to be coated with a layer of plasma, giving off a foul odor. The floor is filled with glass containers containing human organs, scattered like an exhibition...
After the disguise disappeared, the smell of blood hit his face. Shade's stomach was churning, and he finally knew why the doctor deliberately refused to let him eat breakfast.
Enduring the intense discomfort and mental pressure, Shade's eyes swept across the room that almost turned blood red, and saw a young man sleeping soundly in the corner.
He doesn't look like a homeless man, but like a student. His clothes are clean, he looks elegant, and he is well-dressed. He was sitting there slumped with a pistol in one hand and a brass box in the other.
"Baide Moroder, 19 years old, a student at Lorax Mechanical College in Tobesk City. A year ago, after accidentally coming into contact with a level 5, that is, poet-level [relic], he was affected by the relic. Under the influence of the [Whisper] factor, his personality changed drastically, and he gradually became a murderer who kidnapped and murdered young women... This world is too dangerous for ordinary people after all."
"So, what exactly is a [relic]?"
Xia De controlled his fear of the scene and suppressed his desire to vomit. The doctor acted very calmly about this. I don't know whether he controlled his emotions well or was used to similar scenes. The two of them were at the door of the room, and no one had any intention of stepping in.
"[Relics] are remnants of the past, coming from the curses of the first five eras. Some are naturally formed, and some are created by powerful beings in the past.
Remember, only the first five eras can produce [relics]. So far, there is no record of the birth of [relics] in our sixth era. But if you can find out, maybe a whole school year of practical credits will be enough... [Relics] can be easily distinguished from other alchemical items. Only they can have the [Whisper] element attached to them, and there is no artificial The method can add the [Whisper] element to the item. ”
The two of them looked at the metal box held in young Moroder's hand, which was the [Relic].
