Chapter 111 Work at the Seaside
"It's the notebook again."
He held the notebook with two fingers and hung it in front of him. At this moment, Ronald felt as if he was playing a puzzle-style horror game.
The diary I got at the beginning of time travel, the report I saw at the investigation bureau, and now the notes I have in my hand.
The number of times this kind of item appears is actually quite frequent.
But since everything was turned out, I couldn't stop reading it.
While thinking this, Ronald didn't look through the notebook immediately.
Directing the black mist, he threw other useless things far into the sea, and then walked towards the place where he dug out the notebook.
——This is a very peripheral location on the battlefield.
Not only is it far away from the center of the battle, it has even reached the area where plants grow on the seaside. There are many ravines on the ground that have just been filled in by the black mist.
Directing the black mist to dig up the buried ground, Ronald was simulating situations that might have happened in previous battles in his mind.
The burn marks left on the ground -
this shows that someone used flames and other attack methods during the battle. The scene must have been quite big at that time.
Frequent and large-scale ravines -
this shows that there are a lot of physical impacts in the battle, strong physical force directly collides, and the speed is definitely not slow at the same time.
The above two kinds of residues were covered in a scattered density but a large area -
this shows that the battle lasted for a period of time, and the two parties in the battle changed positions and launched attacks many times.
From these three points combined, a simple picture comes to mind.
The caster who was ambushed and attacked by the three investigators was a guy with very good reflexes and movement speed. During the many battles where there were many impacts, he intentionally or unintentionally 'lost' this notebook.
After all, the scene at that time was a high-speed battle, and there was also the visual interference of burning flames. An inconspicuous notebook fell into a ravine and was buried. It is indeed a relatively difficult situation to detect.
Then the problem arises.
In addition to this notebook, does this guy have anything else left here?
Quietly staring at the ground in front of him, Ronald silently waited for the results of the black mist excavation.
Previously just for the purpose of cleaning up the battlefield, Black Mist naturally only dug out things that were easier to find. Then there are probably other items hidden deeper underground.
Something with mysterious side powers must have been disposed of by the three investigators.
But what if the things left behind are as normal as this notebook with no magic fluctuations?
Rustling -
Black Mist is working tirelessly, just like when it was burying the ravine before.
In this way, under the shining of stars in the sky, the sand and soil on the ground were cleared bit by bit.
until the depth of the excavation reaches the point where the gully originally formed.
Different situations arise.
It was an inconspicuous silver-white smooth curved surface, with only a small corner exposed on the ground.
If the smooth surface hadn't reflected the colors of the stars in the sky, Ronald might have just regarded it as an inconspicuous clutter.
"."
"There really is."
Ronald murmured, commanding the black mist to clean up the silver-white objects from the ground. It's almost where the notebook is, and I can actually find something else again!
Soon, a white metal nameplate popped out of the sand.
Ronald held it in his hand and could see that some special characters were used on it, and two rows of closely arranged characters were engraved on it.
——It is a text created by human beings.
The ability to understand language works normally, and he can recognize the above content.
[Human Gestalt Core Group△]
[Empirical Distribution Function Motion Production Module]
"."
What is this?
Ronald could recognize the meaning of the engraved words, and he could also understand the meaning of some phrases very well, but when it was completely put together, why couldn't he see it at all?
Human Gestalt should be a school of psychology.
Words such as experience and distribution function are also quite common.
But if you want to connect all these things, it is completely impossible to understand the meaning.
What is it used for?
Identity tag? The secret code of the school? Or is it an item with some special function?
Looking at the nameplate in his hand, Ronald hesitated for a long time.
When Black Mist could no longer dig out anything from the ground, he waved his hand to refill the excavated sand, and then put the silver nameplate into his pocket.
Although the specific situation is still unclear.
But after all, there are words like Gestalt, and they may come in handy after being preserved.
Phew -
a southwest wind mixed with the smell of the sea blew, but the cold night could no longer bring discomfort to Ronald.
"Divine Comedy" is very useful in strengthening the body in all aspects.
The ability to adapt to hot and cold temperatures has naturally improved significantly as his physique has increased. If he were Ronald a week ago, if this humid and cold sea breeze blew on his face, he would sneeze loudly.
"Okay, let's go back."
After taking a final look around to confirm that the black mist had been dealt with without any omissions, Ronald turned around and walked past Celephais.
At the same time, the notebook, which was a little soft due to the moisture of the soil, was also carefully opened in his hand.
[Day 1]
A new deciphering work begins, and I hope to complete this work with the blessing of fate.
[Day 2]
Completely different language type, failed to apply template.
[Day 3]
Keep trying. . . . . .
[Day 4]
Cracking the magic book is not to gain powerful power, but to urge yourself to work harder in learning knowledge and accumulate hope for the road to the future.
[Day 5]
Failed again.
[Day 27]
It may have been successful, but this is not like a normal magic book, but rather something
similar to a cult warlock?
[Day 39]
Continue to crack, failed.
[Day 42]
Continue to crack, failed.
【Day 59】
Al, Al! How could you be so depraved! Have you forgotten all the heroic words and ambitions you once had? Living in this wonderful era, I can't go on like this anymore!
【Day 75】
Failed.
[Day 106]
Still failed and succeeded?
【151】
The work continues, don’t give up!
[Section]
I seem a little weird, but go ahead.
【.】
I don’t know, that child was killed by me.! ?
"."
The pace of returning to Celephais gradually slowed down.
The content in the notebook was not cumbersome, and it didn't take long for Ronald to read through it.
It's probably a record of a mysterious researcher who kept making progress in deciphering a magic book, and finally, his
mind became strange and he killed ordinary people.
Cold words cannot fully explain the feelings of the parties involved, but after reading these records, Ronald always felt a little uncomfortable.
The grimoire that caused this person to become like this.
What exactly is it?
