Chapter 3 One head, two heads...
Wei En looked at several things in his hand.
The letter was a reply from the management office. The front of the envelope was written "Hands from Wayne Loft", and the back was sealed and stamped with the letter stamp of the Ghost School - a pair of scarlet eyes in black flames.
The other three parchment scrolls are slightly old, and each is tied with a linen rope. It seems that they contain his meditation method.
Wayne put the parchment aside, opened the letter and read it.
"To Mr. Wayne Loft, intelligence officer of the Custer City State, our office has received your application and reviewed and approved the issuance of the "Basic Meditation Method"." "At the same time, according to the ghost's management regulations for apprentices,
synchronization Distribute "Wizard General Knowledge" and "Gonzales Language (Introduction)"." "
Please record the contents on the parchment and send it back within two days to avoid unnecessary trouble caused by the loss of the scroll." "
On the road of pursuing knowledge, Death is not the end - Ghost School Item Management Office!"
The content of the letter was very brief, but Wei En was already very happy.
In addition to the meditation method, the two rolls of parchment he got for free can help him understand the world a little better.
After putting the letter away, he opened the three rolls of parchment.
There was no difference in appearance, so he opened one at will.
"Gonzales... Gonzales..."
After the parchment was unfolded, the flat paper wrinkled into a deformed face, with densely packed strange words clustered into the facial features, and a low roar.
Fuck,
Wei En hurriedly tied it up with a rope.
The sound stopped immediately, and the parchment returned to its flatness unwillingly.
"It's really scary!"
This cliff is the volume "Gonzalez Language (Introduction)".
He had learned from the memory of his predecessor that the books recording extraordinary words were very strange, but he did not expect such a strange method.
So the question is, how to study this scroll?
You can't just give it a beating, right?
Wayne expressed doubts.
Then, he carefully opened the second roll of parchment.
"Okay, okay, it's familiar text. No wonder this scroll is so new." The
second piece of parchment was recorded in Alder language, the common language of the continent, with the words "Wizard's Knowledge" written on it.
The content of the record made him even more delighted.
This is a book that introduces common knowledge about the wizarding world, many of which he wants to know urgently.
According to the above records, wizards are the extraordinary profession with the most complete inheritance. Unlike the clergy of the church, the extraordinary bloodlines in the nobility, and the inheritors of extraordinary races, they pay more attention to creativity.
After the baptism of time, there are currently five active wizard schools.
In addition to the ghost school he belongs to, there are also the occult school that is proficient in elements and divination prophecies, the blood spirit school that taps the potential of the body and fuses extraordinary flesh and blood, the mechanical school that is obsessed with puppetry and mechanical transformation, and the shadow school that is keen on ancient secrets. .
The Ghost School focuses on exploring the mysteries of life and death, just like the motto recorded in the letter - on the road to pursuing knowledge, death is not the end.
Not only that, the scroll also records some things that wizards need to pay attention to.
"Knowledge is power! But remember, when you chase knowledge, knowledge is also chasing you! (In the 138th year of the Third Age, the founder of the Ghost School, the wizard Liszt stayed.)" "It is forbidden to dissect summoned creatures, especially abyssal
creatures . (Fourth Age 363, forbidden wizard Green Stamford.)" "
It is forbidden to fall in love or reproduce with aberrations! (Fourth Age 568, aberration wizard Leili Dorriu.)"
"The Blood Spirit School recovers the remains of the priests of the Church of Dawn (effective for a long time). (Fourth Age 2434, the legendary wizard Garman McAleese of the Blood Spirit School remains.)" "..." "Don't chase before the Fourth
Age
. All knowledge, please remember! (238 years of the old calendar, the great wizard of the occult school Maicon Zaingliu.)" "Don't rely
too much on forbidden items, it will cause misfortune. (165 years of the new calendar, ancient Fas of the shadow school) Special stay.)"
There are ninety-nine precautions in total.
Each one was left by a different wizard, and the time spans from the Third Age to the present.
Wei En is not a historian who specializes in historical research. He does not know the specific number of years, but it is enough to prove that the wizarding profession has a long history.
And judging from the content, wizards from various schools communicate frequently, and... they are all quite capable of seeking death.
Just dissect the summoned creatures and breed with the aberrations.
The one that recovers corpses and is effective for a long time is really weird. It’s an advertisement, right?
But at the same time, he also had a lot of doubts.
For example, why can't we pursue knowledge before the Fourth Age, what are taboo items, etc.
These questions are left for later... and left behind!
He wouldn't take the initiative to contact the mysterious and weird world just to satisfy his curiosity. Wouldn't it be nice to live?
Thinking this way, Wayne looked at the last roll of parchment.
After hesitating for a moment, he gently picked it up and held it tightly. The Gonzales language scroll was so weird. This meditation scroll that looked even more ancient might...
hiss!
After the sound of hemp rope rubbing, the scroll was opened.
The strange scene in his fantasy did not appear. Wei En breathed a sigh of relief and looked at the content on this scroll.
The whole piece of parchment is one foot square, and the corners are not regular.
If you look closely, there is a shiny layer of slurry on it, which is distributed in every corner like oil stains.
The recorded text... I don't recognize. It's somewhat similar to what he just saw on the Gonzalez language scroll. He still needs to confirm it.
Other content...Is this a painting?
I saw the scroll occupying 80% of the parchment, drawing...
no, not drawing!
To be precise, it was made of unknown bone fragments burned on parchment paper, forming a strange six-pointed star array.
And under this strangely constructed hexagram, there is a vaguely strange painting.
It can be confirmed that the content of the painting is a humanoid creature, but its limbs, head, and several tails are all pressed under the six-pointed star skeleton, making it difficult to see clearly.
Only the body part is very clear - the lines of the lines describe a human face.
Black hair, dark skin, angular face, thick black eyebrows, bright red eyes...
Wei En came closer and looked carefully. He always felt that he had seen this face somewhere.
Where is it?
Yes...this is what he looks like now!
Before he could react, he saw the face that looked the same as his on the torso smiled evilly, and uttered a few weird tones: "Apu, Runo, Ruixi..."
If If Wei En understands the Gonzales language, he will understand the meaning of these tones: "Chaos, despair, death..."
As the sound sounded, he felt that his vision began to blur, and everything around him seemed to be moving away. An extremely unreal feeling of nothingness came.
Plop!
Wei En lay on his back, his eyes staring blankly into space, and his mouth opening and closing unconsciously.
"One head, two heads, three heads..."
The murmur spread throughout the room.
