Chapter 77 Extraordinary Events, Dunn, Pollution
“As expected, you are indeed a true fortuneteller.” Medea looked at Klein with a half-smile.
"Let me reason. You are a fortune teller, but you are not a member of the Secret Society. According to the accumulation of the Secret Society, you should not be acting so superficially now."
"The lucky one who gets the potion? No, it won't."
Medea shook her head. "Your spirituality is very stable. Just now you subconsciously used your divination ability. Your habits have already explained everything. Considering the degree of mental pollution brought by Beyonder characteristics, you are normal."
“You can’t learn the common sense of the extraordinary world of expertise on your own.
So... you are a Beyonder from the Church of Night, right?
You have summarized the "acting method" and are performing it in the Divination Club, intending to digest the potion."
In fact, I have already prepared the clown potion. The purpose of acting here is to earn money to buy potion materials and formulas... Klein secretly complained about Medea's wrong guess, but he didn't say it directly.
He acted as if he had been "guessed" by Medea, and asked curiously, "Simple acting?"
"Yes." Medea nodded the back of her hand and said calmly.
"The acting method is a method created by many extraordinary people after summarizing the speed and effect of potion digestion."
"Acting, you are acting out the name of the potion to avoid losing control. But... did you actually digest the potion?"
Hearing such words for the first time, Klein humbly asked, "Is there any danger in acting?"
"Of course." Medea nodded, and then began to explain the knowledge as a scholar.
"Do you really think that by relying on divination, you can quickly learn things that would take ordinary people decades to learn, but at no cost?"
Medea looked at the divination instruments here and said calmly: "How long did it take you to learn divination?"
“I see.” Klein nodded thoughtfully. He already understood the danger that Medea was talking about.
He leaped from an ordinary person to a master in the field of divination. He mastered these knowledge that did not involve extraordinary fields much faster than ordinary people.
Just like the users of the magic potion assassin, thoughts such as "assassination" and "poisoning" will appear in their minds, and all aspects of their physical fitness will be slightly improved.
All of this has a price!
"Because of the role-playing method, you decide what is yourself."
“Myself?” Klein sat on the sofa at the side and placed his hands on his legs.
At this moment, Klein humbly asked Medea for extraordinary knowledge, just like he had asked Old Neil before.
"Play, you're digesting the potion.
But your process is in line with the name of the potion, just like your divination, and over time, you will become a real fortune teller, not Klein Moretti."
Suppose you are playing a superman. As time goes by, when you devote yourself to it, you have become a superman without realizing it.
Habits, thoughts, ideas, and other aspects of one's personality will shift over time. At this point, when you look back on yourself, you will find that you have unknowingly become a different person.
This is like a caterpillar emerging from its cocoon and becoming a butterfly. The tiny human-scale time is insignificant in the context of the extraordinary concept.
"Potions aren't just about acting, you also have to learn how to fight."
Medea gave instructions patiently.
“Thank you for your guidance.” Klein bowed to Medea.
Compared to my newbie self, Medea’s guidance was a solution to the urgent problem.
"Klein, you are a Beyonder from the Church of Evernight. I need your help in finding someone for me."
"Who?"
"I don't know." Medea shook his head and then spoke.
"He is a peeper of secrets, and his extraordinary sequence is roughly nine.
The specific appearance...characteristics are that it may be on the verge of losing control."
“…What is your purpose in looking for him?” Klein was extremely serious at this moment.
The only Extraordinary person of this path that he knew of who had the corresponding Sequence Level was Old Neil, but Old Neil was already dead.
"Klein, this is dangerous." Medea's expression was heavy, and he clasped his hands on his legs.
"I am from the Moss Ascetic Order, and I am a student of one of the Ten Pillars. My teacher told me that someone in Tingen has acquired knowledge that should not be known." "As for my teacher, he once cooperated with the royal family in Loen. If you don't believe it, you can look through the archives of the Church of Evernight."
Having said that, Klein also understood that what Medea said was roughly true. After all, she had the archive contents as a guarantee, so she could believe it for the time being.
"Do you know where this person is?"
Klein lowered his head when asked this question.
He told the story about "Old Neil" in a slightly desolate tone.
"…That's what happened. Old Neil lost control, and I killed him myself."
"It was handled very well. As for the Beyonder characteristics, I believe that the Beyonders of the Church of Evernight in Tingen can bring it to a perfect conclusion."
“Ms. Medea, you seem to attach great importance to the Beyonder characteristics. Why?” Klein humbly sought advice when he didn’t understand.
"Heh." Medea tapped his thigh with his hand and explained the reason.
"The Church of Darkness will also explain this part. When you reach Sequence 7, you can apply for relevant content within the church."
"But it doesn't hurt for me to tell you in advance."
"The Beyonder's characteristics retain the contamination suffered by the Beyonder during his lifetime. According to what my teacher described, the level of contamination of the Secret Sage is very dangerous and requires an Archbishop-level Beyonder to handle it.
Of course, as long as the contact time is not too long and there are no abnormal events such as activation, it is safe. "
Got it!
"Captain Dunn!" Klein instantly thought of Captain Dunn eating up the remaining extraordinary characteristics of Old Neil.
If what Medea said is correct, then Dunn has now been contaminated by the evil god, the Hidden Sage!
"If it shows any abnormality, Klein, you'd better apply for a high-level Beyonder to come to Tingen."
"Okay, I'll leave first."
Medea stood up, pushed the door and left.
Sitting alone in the chair, Klein felt particularly heavy-hearted.
If it was really as Medea said, then after he eliminated Old Neil, the captain who came over ate the extraordinary characteristics diluted by Old Neil, then... Dunn had been corrupted by the pollution left by the Secret Sage.
His amnesia is terrible, does it mean the situation is very dangerous?
"No, that's not right. I can't trust Ms. Medea so easily. It's possible that this is a conspiracy on her part.
The Moss Ascetic Order believes in the evil god, the Hidden Sage. Add to that the pair of eyes I saw behind her, and the symbol left on the back of her right hand, and she might be a cultist!"
"Should I report her?"
"Be careful, um, do your research before taking action."
After thinking about the next countermeasures, Klein breathed a sigh of relief.
However, he still opened his spiritual vision as usual to observe the surroundings, and after making sure that there were no weird things like those hidden sages, he climbed up to the Sefirah Castle.
After walking four steps backwards, Klein arrived above the gray fog and sat at the head of the long bronze table. He materialized a piece of paper and a pen and wrote a line of divination text—
"Dunn is polluted, Dunn is polluted..."
After repeating it seven times, the divination pendulum began to rotate counterclockwise, and Klein felt depressed.
Captain Dunn is in danger!
Rubbing his eyes, Klein continued to recall the extraordinary knowledge described by Medea.
Old Neil encountered dangerous knowledge taught by the secret sage, so she came to Tingen to find Old Neil and intend to solve the matter.
………Medya said that her actions were not going well, and she asked herself to tell her fortune, and she encountered some troubles.
So... coincidence!
In an instant, the fog in Klein's mind dissipated, and he saw the whole story of this incident.
From Old Neil being contaminated, to him successfully killing him, and then Dunn swallowing Old Neil's extraordinary characteristics - this is too much of a coincidence!
"If what Medea said is true, then the mastermind behind all this is the Extraordinary Person in the Red Chimney House!"
Klein rested his chin on his hand, thinking about the truth of the puzzle components in his mind.
"Captain Dunn, we've encountered pollution... Captain Dunn, we've encountered pollution..."
After repeating it seven times, Klein leaned back in his chair, closed his eyelids, and fell into meditation...
