Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery.

Chapter 111: Promoted to "Wizard"

The potion of "Fighting Scholar" has been completely digested, and the main and auxiliary materials of "Wizard" are already in hand, and it is time to advance!
Originally, Odysseus had planned to be promoted tonight, but he was delayed by Mike's matter and his original promotion plan was disrupted. It was midnight before he had time to consider whether to be promoted.

Odysseus took a deep breath. Although it was very late, he felt that he was in pretty good condition.

Then I will advance tonight. Sequence 7 is also the qualitative change stage of the "Mystery Peeper" path. After becoming a "Wizard", I can use some extraordinary abilities, which can greatly improve my self-defense ability and attack power.

So Odysseus took the lamp and went to the front counter to collect the auxiliary materials, and then took out another main material from the "Wilderness of Knowledge": the brain of the pale long-necked beast.

After preparing all the materials, he began to prepare the potion.

First, six drops of toxic aconite juice were dripped into the beaker, and then 6 grams of purple black-edged lilac flower powder, which has a hallucinogenic effect, was weighed.

Then add 60 ml of pure water, and a dose of poison that can cause angina pectoris and hallucinations is prepared.

This made Odysseus sigh: the auxiliary materials in the potion formula are completely fighting poison with poison!

Then he added the deep red blood of the silver-billed crane into the beaker. Pharmacologically speaking, this was a tonic, but it did not have a detoxifying effect.

Odysseus opened the two wooden boxes in front of him and first took out the small brain that seemed to still have blood flowing.

This brain is about the size of the tip of a thumb, but it is very similar to a human brain. In the crystal clear tiny blood vessels, there are dot-like illusory lights, and under the reflection of these lights, it seems as if blood is flowing.

After adding the main ingredients, the liquid in the beaker reacted quickly. Odysseus did not stir it, but the potion flowed on its own, as if melting the solids in it.

Finally, Odysseus added two "fruits of the fleabane tree" the size of longans, which would occasionally move slightly.

The potion in the cup suddenly formed a small vortex shape, and under its own stirring, it eventually turned into a syrup-like liquid with a little starlight.

Odysseus thought to himself: This looks more delicious than the potion of the "Combat Scholar".

He took a deep breath and used "meditation" to calm his churning thoughts. After he calmed down, he drank the potion in one gulp.

As the cold potion entered his stomach, Odysseus seemed to hear a loud "boom" and his whole body became a little confused, as if he had returned to his innocent and carefree childhood.

But this wonderful feeling quickly disappeared. Two or three seconds later, Odysseus felt a splitting headache. It seemed as if something was coming out of his head, but it couldn't find a way out, so it kept stirring in his head.

Odysseus even had the illusion that his head had turned into cartilage, and something was pushing up the left side of his skull, then the right side.

In fact, this was not his illusion. At this moment, his head really seemed to have become soft as a balloon filled with water. There was a small bulge that moved back and forth, as if there was a small snake slithering around inside.

Dang rang~
The sound of the beaker falling to the ground brought some of Odysseus's sanity back. He tried to use his will to fight the pain and avoid fainting from the pain.

But soon, the pain of a needle prick came from the head again. Not only was it pricked, but it also stirred after the prick.

Then it turned into the pain of being cut by a knife, and then the pain of being pinched by two hard objects...

It was as if someone was using various torture instruments to torture Odysseus's brain, causing it to suffer severe damage.

Finally, the first round of pain in the head ended, and the pain started again with colic, but the second round of pain was much relieved. Odysseus quickly used "meditation" to resist this pain, and soon the symptoms were greatly alleviated.

But Odysseus knew very well that he still had to grit his teeth and get through the last hurdle of promotion.

After the pain had almost subsided, suddenly, that strange and cold voice once again entered Odysseus's ears:

"O boundless universe! You...pile...jump...knowledge...Kanal...endless..."

Although I could hear a few more words clearly this time than the last time I was promoted, most of them were still unclear.

Those unclear parts were like the roar of a wild beast, which frightened Odysseus; or like nails scratching on thin iron plates, making sharp noises, which made him extremely irritated; or like harmful ultrasound waves, which made him dizzy.

Fortunately, the sound disappeared quickly, but Odysseus had already fallen to the ground, with veins bulging on his forehead, and he seemed to have lost consciousness for a moment.

Then he was hit by a severe dizziness, like being carsick or being very drunk, and he began to retch again.

After a minute or two, Odysseus gasped violently and slowly got up from the ground: No, I have to find a way to block the voice of the "Hidden Sage".

Otherwise, he had just been promoted and was weak at the time. It was really terrifying to hear him shout like that!

Odysseus planned to talk to Bernadette about lending her something when the opportunity arose.

It seems that Russell made her a magical item that can prevent her from being "pursued" by the "Hidden Sage". Let's see if we can research and make a low-end version, or find a way to copy it.

But that is not the question to think about now. Odysseus continued to use "meditation" to stabilize his state.

After two or three minutes, all the discomfort in Odysseus's body disappeared, but when he pressed his head, he still felt a little numb.

This made him seriously suspect that the magic potion of Sequence 7 "Wizard" might mainly strengthen the brain, so during the promotion process, he basically suffered from various headache symptoms.

Odysseus then used his spirituality to sense the new abilities he had gained after his promotion. The first was the ability to cast "spells" or "witchcraft," which was too general a term and should be called "a series of witchcraft."

You can use spiritual materials and extraordinary abilities to perform witchcraft.

For example, when necessary, Odysseus can use the "flying powder" prepared in advance with spiritual materials as a medium to perform a spell that allows short-term flight.

During this process, Odysseus had to outline the mystical symbols corresponding to this witchcraft in his mind.

The formula for "flying powder" was knowledge that Odysseus mastered after his promotion.

At this moment, in his mind, there were twelve pieces of knowledge related to "flying", including the corresponding mystical symbols and the formulas of the required spiritual materials.

Odysseus took his pipe, played with it and thought: To sum up the knowledge I have gained in my mind about witchcraft, the three elements of witchcraft are: extraordinary ability, spirituality, and materials.

He used a more vivid metaphor: when performing witchcraft, the corresponding mystical symbols that appear in the mind are like a startup code, allowing the extraordinary characteristics in the body to exert corresponding power.

In other words, as long as you have enough knowledge of mysticism, you can also create the "startup code" of witchcraft.

Those twelve witchcrafts are a bit like the "must-have" software for installation. If you know programming and software design, you can also design the required software yourself!

Then Odysseus carefully "read" in his mind the mystical symbols corresponding to the twelve witchcrafts he currently mastered.

He soon discovered that these occult symbols looked somewhat similar to common occult symbols, but if you look closely, you will find that their usage is completely different. These symbols are simpler, but the content expressed by a single symbol is more complex and has more symbolic meaning.

At the same time, these mystical symbols are very different from the mystical symbols deduced by Odysseus.

Odysseus scratched his head. The mystical symbols he had worked so hard to deduce turned out to be incompatible with witchcraft. This was a problem.

But he thought again, these symbols are just symbolic symbols and have no fixed shape.

Just like during the Warring States Period, the seven countries had different writing systems, but the meanings expressed in their respective writing systems were basically the same.

So Odysseus had a bold idea: Can I use witchcraft with the mystical symbols I deduced?
An experiment must be done.

Among the twelve witchcrafts, he found the "Fire Magic" which required relatively easy preparation of corresponding spiritual materials, so he immediately went to the pharmacy in front and found the powdered leaves of the Fiery Red Maple Tree and the red fur of the Fire Marten.

Cut the red fluff into pieces and add powder to prepare the materials needed for "Pyromancy".

Odysseus first replaced the mystical symbols of "pyromancy" in his mind with the symbols he deduced himself.

Then, go to the yard, and while sketching the corresponding symbolic symbols in your mind, inject spirituality into the spiritual materials and sprinkle powder.

Call ~
The scattered powder ignited a huge fire!
It worked!
That’s really possible!

As the flames in front of him died down, Odysseus almost roared to the sky. With his research on mystical symbols and spirituality, he would be the wizard who could use the most witchcraft!

Back in the house, Odysseus had a smile on his face. He filled his pipe and then dipped his hands in a few grains of powder used for "pyromancy".

A small flame formed on his finger, and he used the flame to light his pipe and took a long drag.

At this time, he was already considering whether to write a book called "The Encyclopedia of Witchcraft".

After some imagination, Odysseus continued to think about the issue of witchcraft.

After understanding the principles that stimulate extraordinary abilities, he began to think about the second element, the issue of spirituality.

The practice of witchcraft indirectly confirms his thoughts on spirituality and extraordinary characteristics.

He believed that extraordinary characteristics were achieved by using spirituality as a medium to display extraordinary abilities.

In this process, spirituality occupies a very important position. Spirituality in its normal state will not have any extraordinary effects, but after being distorted by extraordinary characteristics and undergoing essential changes, the state of spirituality becomes very different!
It can mobilize the power of nature, stimulate one's own potential, and destroy the spiritual balance of the target's body...

Click~
There was a sudden loud thunder outside.

……

Click~
Max, who was on duty in Backlund, also heard the thunder.

There will definitely not be thunder at this time of year. It is probably the "punishers" handling the case again.

At this moment, the door to Max's office was suddenly pushed open, and a member of the "Mechanical Heart" team was holding a telegram: "Captain, urgent message from headquarters."

Max quickly stood up and took the telegram. The content of the telegram was: Odysseus Gar was promoted to "Wizard" and was subject to key observation and monitoring.
