Mystery: I Married the Queen of Mystery.

Chapter 298 The Mysterious Queen's Bedmate

The knowledge stored in the "Wilderness of Knowledge" once again surprised Odysseus.

He had never imagined that he could use "Star Sand" to simulate extraordinary abilities from other sources.

After obtaining the relevant knowledge, Odysseus felt that there was no problem in theory. After all, "star sand" could replace spiritual materials, allowing Odysseus to use "witchcraft" directly without the help of external forces.

This is actually an extraordinary use of the surrounding spirituality by utilizing "star sand".

And if "Xingsha" uses the "Gal Character", it can directly leverage the extraordinary power of this world.

This process is somewhat similar to the process when the "Recorder" uses other abilities. Both use illusory mystical characters, under the influence of Beyonder characteristics, to obtain corresponding Beyonder feedback and "express" the corresponding Beyonder abilities.

Odysseus's previous research on the "Recorder" came in handy at this time. The moment he obtained this method from the "Wilderness of Knowledge", he could "express" most of the abilities in most extraordinary ways.

But it is only limited to those below demigod level, because the abilities above demigod level involve divinity, which cannot be "simulated".

Some other overly complex abilities cannot be simulated. For example, Odysseus can "simulate" the "air bullet" ability of the "Puppet Master" level, but cannot "simulate" the ability to turn the target into a puppet.

But this is enough, which makes Odysseus have more abilities than a "shepherd" who "grazes" 7 targets!

However, there is one thing that is not as good as the "Shepherd", that is, it takes time to switch between abilities. Unlike the "Shepherd", it is not like the "Shepherd" who can instantly switch between different souls and use different abilities.

Then, Odysseus came up with a solution of "switching" ability, which allows him to use "Star Sand" and "Scroll" alternately to form a complementary combo.

No matter what, Odysseus’ “astrologer” must be the most powerful “astrologer”!
After carefully reviewing the two kinds of knowledge he had obtained, Odysseus touched the "central processing unit" with his hand to see what new abilities he had gained in the "wilderness of knowledge".

After becoming an "Astrologer", Odysseus obtained two intelligent puppets in the "Wilderness of Knowledge"!
Odysseus quickly summoned out the "intelligent puppet", and two more "Odysseus" appeared in front of him.

Their appearance and clothing were exactly the same as Odysseus's, the only difference being that their eyes were dull and lifeless.

The two "intelligent puppets" have roughly the same intelligence as Odysseus, and their "intelligence" is very high. They can help Odysseus complete some research, write scrolls, and even help him write books.

However, they do not possess Odysseus's creativity, which means that the work they can do is only within the scope of Odysseus's current capabilities.

It is impossible to do work beyond Odysseus' current level. Only when Odysseus makes new breakthroughs in research can they solve more problems.

In addition, Odysseus can communicate with the two intelligent puppets through thoughts. Odysseus's consciousness can directly obtain the corresponding experimental results and work progress from their brains.

At the same time, there is no need to worry about them rebelling because they have no autonomy and will only do what Odysseus orders them to do.

This made Odysseus sigh that the work of making extraordinary parts in the future would be left to these two people.

Previously, it took the combined efforts of all crew members to create ten "extraordinary machine guns" and ten "extraordinary mortars", but they will no longer be needed in the future. From producing parts to engraving runes, to assembling extraordinary weapons, Odysseus can do it all by himself.

Looking at the two "intelligent puppets", Odysseus sighed: This is a bit like an avatar that can only be used in the "wilderness of knowledge"!

Unfortunately, Odysseus had just managed to get through the busiest period, and currently there is nothing for his clone to do.

Odysseus thought about it and decided that such labor could not be wasted, so he asked an "intelligent puppet" to conduct corresponding experiments to verify some new weapons.

For example, the "Neutron Cannon" designed by Odysseus to defend against the "Spirit Wave Cannon".

Theoretically, this weapon can definitely defend against the "Spirit Wave Cannon", but during the manufacturing process, it will definitely encounter some problems that can only be discovered when it reaches the practical stage.

Now we can let the "intelligent puppet" "produce" a "neutron cannon" according to the previous idea to see the effect.

Then, Odysseus returned to the real world and stuffed a thick stack of parchment and various spiritual materials into the "Wilderness of Knowledge", and asked another "intelligent puppet" to write the scrolls that were used more frequently.

After keeping the two "intelligent puppets" busy, Odysseus went to the "central processing unit" to check if he had gained any new abilities.

The moment he touched the ball of light, he realized that he could use more power of the "Wilderness of Knowledge" in the real world without being noticed by others.

This has helped him in many ways, such as the "Eye of Prying Eyes" can see more information, the amount of "star sand" is more than that of a normal "astrologer", and his spirituality is more acute than that of a normal "astrologer", etc.

If the channel of the "Teleportation Array" is expanded, there is no need to prepare a special ceremony. Just use the honorific name of "Knowledge Wilderness" to complete the previous operation of Odysseus.

Another more practical ability is that "Knowledge Wilderness" can help Odysseus use "Star Sand" to "simulate" another "Odysseus" in the real world.

It can replace "Odysseus" for three seconds, and it is a double replacement of identity and destiny. After it disappears, all the negative effects suffered by Odysseus' identity and destiny will also disappear.

However, there is a prerequisite that these negative effects are "below angels".

The star sand used for simulation can then return to Odysseus.

This is a great ability for Odysseus to escape, because 3 seconds is enough for him to use "travel" to slip away.

Unless the enemy is lurking in the spirit world.

After seeing the new abilities, Odysseus watched the two "intelligent puppets" work for a while and then returned to the real world.

It can be said that the moment he completed his promotion, he was already more powerful than all the "astrologers".

He felt it again and felt that his spirituality had been completely gathered, so he used the "Travel Ring" and, under the guidance of his spirituality, came to the deck of the "Golden Dream".

There was suddenly an extra person on the deck, which scared the sailor on duty.

But when he recognized it as "Captain Gal", he immediately invited him to the captain's study.

Because the captain had just given an order that as soon as "Captain Gal" appeared on the ship, he would be taken to her study immediately.

The sailors knew that this was related to the life of the first mate Blue, so they did not make things difficult for Odysseus and carried out the order seriously.

As soon as he entered the study, Odysseus looked at Edwina, who looked the same as she had during the day, and smiled, "I'm relieved to see that you're still as beautiful as ever."

When the sailor who brought him in heard this, he wanted to curse, but because the captain was present, he didn't say anything in the end.

In fact, Odysseus said this without any disrespect, he was speaking the truth.

After all, in the dream not long ago, Edwina in front of Odysseus was still a dried corpse.

Edwina also smiled and said, "I'm relieved that you can still be so humorous."

This just proves that there is nothing wrong with Odysseus.

After closing the study door, the two of them sat down on either side of the desk again.

Edwina noticed the golden glasses on Odysseus's eye sockets. His eyes suddenly became deeper, and then returned to normal: "Have you been promoted?"

Odysseus didn't answer directly, but simply said, "Yesterday on that island, I found the extraordinary materials I needed."

Edwina nodded, a little surprised at Odysseus's "ability to act," because she knew very well that advancement to Sequence 5 required a ceremony, and sometimes this required the help of an organization.

This then reminded Edwina of the previous conversation in the sarcophagus. Odysseus's first reaction was that he thought she was Bernadette.

On the sea, many people know that the "Mysterious Queen" is a beautiful lady, but few know that her name is Bernadette Gustave.

Edwina happened to know this, and considering that Odysseus said he had rested, and his first reaction after waking up from the dream was Bernadette, a logical guess is that Odysseus was sleeping next to Bernadette at the time.

This made Edwina suddenly understand why Odysseus had access to so many resources at such a young age, because he was the bedfellow of the "Mysterious Queen".

At the same time, she also realized that this was most likely the real reason why the church asked her to try her best to win over Odysseus.

Now, Edwina naturally believed that Odysseus had taken advantage of her relationship with the "Mysterious Queen" to successfully obtain the opportunity to perform the ceremony.

And after being promoted, Odysseus accompanied the "Mysterious Queen" to bed, but in his dream he returned to the dark room he explored during the day.

Odysseus was unaware of Edwina's speculations. He said, "As for the problem we face, my idea is to cut off contact first and then burn those bodies."

Edwina came back to her senses and discussed the issue seriously: "That's what I think too, but the question is how do we cut off contact?"

Odysseus thought for a moment and said, "I need to go and see what's going on with Blue."

Blue is the most seriously ill among them and the first one to show abnormalities. If we solve Blue's problem, the problems of the others should also be completely solved.

He paused and continued, "Also, the others who entered that dark room should have encountered similar problems. Call them over as well."

Edwina was stunned for a moment before she said, "Okay."

The two men got up and opened the door of the study. "It just so happened" that a few crew members were cleaning the corridor outside in the middle of the night. Edwina asked them to call the other people who had explored the dark room to the first mate's room.

She and Odysseus arrived at Blue's room first.

Unlike the "craftsman" Div that Odysseus had seen, the parts, semi-finished products, finished products, etc. in Blue's room were arranged very neatly.

Although it feels a bit messy because there are too many things, it is pretty good to have such "neatness".

At this time, Blue was lying on his back on the bed, motionless. His skin was dry and dull. If he was not still breathing, Odysseus would have thought it was just a corpse.

The air was filled with an intoxicating aroma, probably because a lot of spiritual materials had been burned here.

There was a small altar in front of Blue's bed that had not been removed. He was covered with a curtain with many mysterious patterns, and there was a green lamp on the curtain.

This is Edwina's way of dealing with it. As long as the light is not extinguished, Blue will be safe for the time being.

Odysseus took a deep breath, took off his glasses, and looked at Blue in front of him with his "Eye of Prying Eyes".

Blue's spirit was very thin at this time, and it seemed that there was some unknown power mixed in the spirit, making the spirit look lifeless, as if the spirit would disappear from Blue's body in the next second.

Fortunately, there was a layer of halo at this time, protecting Blue's spirit. This was the effort made by "Vice Admiral Iceberg", which made his spirit temporarily safe.

Then, Odysseus saw a black line connecting to the virtual world at the location of Blue's ankle.

Originally, the black line seemed to lead to nothingness, but the pupil of Odysseus's "Eye of Prying Eyes" suddenly expanded, and he saw that in the void, there was a dried corpse pulling the black line with all its might.

But because Edwina took some measures, the mummy couldn't be pulled out no matter how hard it tried.

Suddenly, the situation around Odysseus became dark, as if he had suddenly returned to the dark room under the church.

Just as Odysseus was about to put on his glasses, the mummy seemed to notice Odysseus's gaze, looked at Odysseus, and suddenly put down the black thread in his hand and ran towards Odysseus.

Odysseus quickly put on his glasses, and the corresponding mystical connection was disconnected. Odysseus seemed to have instantly traveled through space and returned to the room of the first mate of the "Golden Dream".

His "Eye of Prying Eyes" has completed the seal, so there is no need to worry about the mummy rushing towards him.

After breathing a sigh of relief, Odysseus pondered for a moment and said, "I do have a way to cut off the connection, but after using that method, Blue can only stay within the range I have designated for the time being."

Edwina nodded: "Let's solve his problem first."

"it is good."

Just at this time, the other crew members who participated in the exploration of the dark room during the day also came to the first mate's room.

Odysseus called them over, cleared out a space, and moved Blue's bed to the center of the space.

Odysseus took out the "dust of evil spirits" and several spiritual materials from the "wilderness of knowledge" and prepared a special "ink" on the spot.

Then he bent down and began to draw a magic circle around the bed. The magic circle he drew was called the "Spirit Trapping Array", which could trap creatures such as evil spirits within a fixed range.

However, Odysseus made some changes to this magic circle, which not only trapped Blue's spirit so that it would not be harmed anymore, but also cut off other spiritual damage.

Odysseus drew the magic circle with incredible speed, creating a complex and intricate one in just two or three minutes. Edwina, who had been watching, found herself unable to understand most of the characters. This made her sigh with admiration: "Elemental Dawn has a profound understanding of mysticism. For a young man like Garl, in his twenties, to be able to "recite" the magic circle so quickly speaks volumes about the depth of this organization."

In fact, what Vice Admiral Iceberg didn’t know was that even if the Mysterious Queen was watching, she would not recognize most of the characters that appeared in the magic circle.

After drawing the magic circle, Odysseus injected spirituality into a "Gal Rune", and the magic circle immediately emitted a pale white light, surrounding Blue's bed and the whole person.

Odysseus took off his glasses again and made sure that he had cut the thread on Blue's ankle, but the black thread was still floating outside the magic circle, as if looking for a target.

Therefore, as long as you don't leave this magic circle, you will not be entangled by this line again.

Only then did Odysseus take away the lamp and black cloth from Blue's body. Blue's skin filled up at a speed visible to the naked eye and soon turned into normal skin.

A few seconds later, Blue woke up with a look of horror on his face. After seeing the captain and the other crew members, he finally breathed a sigh of relief: "I had a long and terrifying dream."

"Perhaps it wasn't a dream." Odysseus smiled and said, "Until we resolve the issue, please don't leave your bed for now... Sorry, that's not quite accurate. It should be said that you shouldn't leave the circle I drew for now."

Although Blue didn't quite understand what had happened, he saw that it was Captain Gar who saved him, so he immediately nodded and agreed, "Okay."

Odysseus said to Edwina, "It seems my method is effective. The other members should stay in the magic circle. The two of us will solve the problem."

He saw that the others seemed to have objections, so he added, "I need to make some preparations later, so I can only take one person on the 'trip'."

The other crew members were suddenly speechless. They had no way to solve the problem and no ability to "travel".

Odysseus said to Edwina again: "Please bring two umbrellas."

Because Odysseus's magic circle can cut off the connection with the corpse, Odysseus naturally issued orders in resolving this incident.

Edwina nodded and asked the crew to get an umbrella.

Taking advantage of this time, Odysseus drew a similar "soul-trapping array" in the restaurant, which had a considerable space, and let the five crew members hide inside.

After getting the umbrellas, Odysseus drew magic circles on the inside of the umbrellas. In this way, Odysseus and Edwina could cut off their connection with the dark room as long as they opened the umbrellas.

But if that's the case, you'll need to free up one hand to hold the umbrella.

After making preparations, Odysseus entered the spiritual world with one hand holding an umbrella and the other hand holding the shoulder of "Vice Admiral Iceberg" in the eyes of the crew who were reluctant but had to endure.

Under the guidance of the spirit, Odysseus and Edwina came directly to the outside of the tomb hall. Before, there were crew members holding lanterns, but now, in this ancient building, there was no one else except the two of them.

Thinking of the rows of corpses inside the stone gate in front of him, Odysseus felt as if he was in a ghost story.

Edwina's expression also became serious. The exploration of treasures often involved dealing with corpses, but they usually acted in groups. It was rare for them to start the exploration without even lighting a lamp as they did now because they had no hands free to hold a lantern.

As the two men reached out to push the door open, Odysseus said, "I just thought of a good way to deal with those corpses. It's a good time to try out my new ability. You hold the umbrella for me while I try to see if my method works."

Edwina said, "No problem."

Both of them had very good eyesight. After opening the door, the neatly arranged coffin came into view again.

It was so quiet here, as if ghosts would rush out of the darkness and attack them at any time.

Odysseus smiled and said, "I'd better make this place brighter."

As he spoke, he took out the "Spirit Storage Crystal" from the "Knowledge Wilderness". The spiritual energy in this small crystal had not been consumed yet, and the light it emitted was similar to that of a normal energy-saving lamp.

This is enough to illuminate a large area around.

Odysseus summoned "star sand" with star-like light in his palm, and used a "flying spell" on the "Soul Storage Crystal", allowing the "Soul Storage Crystal" to float in the air, following the two people forward and illuminating them.

As they walked forward, Odysseus said, "Before humans learned to use fire, countless wild beasts and monsters would suddenly rush out in the dark to attack humans.

"So humans' fear of darkness is ingrained in their genes."

"You don't need to explain." Edwina smiled and said, "I also feel that some light will bring peace of mind."

Odysseus said "Oh" and did not continue the topic.

The two men quickly came to the door of the dark room. Odysseus looked at Edwina. The two used their eyes to confirm that the other was ready, so Odysseus opened the secret door and hid aside.

It was very quiet inside and no bodies rushed out.

So Odysseus walked in front and Edwina followed behind, entering the short corridor and quickly arriving at the stone chamber.

The two men saw that one of the sarcophagi was opened by someone. Before they could go forward to check, the corpse inside suddenly sat up and turned to look at the two captains who broke into the stone chamber.

Odysseus immediately noticed that this was the same corpse that had pulled the black line on Blue's ankle.

According to the plan discussed before, Odysseus handed the umbrella in his hand to Edwina, then spread out his hands, and a ball of dazzling "star sand" appeared in the palms of his hands.

Most "astrologers" only have "star sand" in one hand, but Odysseus has a large amount of "star sand" in his body, so it can appear in both hands at the same time.

The "star sand" in the palm of his left hand suddenly floated towards the open sarcophagus, forming the shape of a giant hand, pushing the coffin lid and knocking down the corpse inside.

After the sarcophagus closed, the "star sand" formed a giant hand and drilled into the seven coffins, and flames suddenly ignited inside the sarcophagus.

These were extraordinary flames, and even though there was little oxygen in the sarcophagus, they still burned fiercely.

Suddenly, the lid of the sarcophagus began to shake.

The "star sand" in Odysseus' right hand spread out and covered the coffin lid. For a moment, the stone chamber was filled with bright stars, forming a huge "starlight cage".

Edwina suddenly had an illusion, as if she was suddenly in a sea of stars, and the coldness and horror around her disappeared instantly.

But then, she also discovered that there seemed to be something wrong with Odysseus's ability, but she couldn't tell what was wrong. After thinking about it for a few seconds, she realized that the "astrologer" could create such a large "starlight cage"?
Then she realized that this "Starlight Cage" seemed to last too long. More than ten seconds, more than twenty seconds had passed, and Gar could still maintain it!

It was not until half a minute later that Odysseus seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and took back the "star sand". At this time, most of the sarcophagi had been cracked, and two of them were even burned into lime because of the flames coming out of them.

Odysseus also thought about using "star sand" to turn the corpses into powder, but he still felt that burning them could solve the problem more thoroughly.

At the same time, in order to test my own abilities and spiritual reserves, I came up with this idea.

That ball of flame was the witchcraft used by "Star Sand". Not only was it more powerful, but it also had greater extraordinary characteristics.

The so-called "extraordinary characteristics" mean that it is not dependent on the surrounding natural environment and can burn without combustible materials and sufficient oxygen.

Previously, at Sequence 7, the "witchcraft" used by Odysseus was still limited by many natural conditions.

At this time, Odysseus summoned "Star Sand" again to push open the sarcophagus, and a corpse in it that was burning like a red-hot iron block suddenly sat up.

Its facial features had been burned blurred, but Odysseus seemed to still be able to feel its gaze. It slowly turned its head, and its head suddenly fell off and rolled a long way.

The other corpses were still moving, but they had been cracked and broken, so there was no need to worry about them attacking again.

The flames continued to burn for more than a minute before the bodies were reduced to ashes.

Odysseus sighed, "The body of a demigod is so hard to burn."

Edwina felt the same way: "After all, they once possessed a little bit of divinity."

Then, Odysseus walked out from under the umbrella, used his spiritual sense to perceive his own condition, and only put away the umbrella after he was sure that the problem had been completely solved.

The two men waited in the dark room for a while until the bodies were completely burned into charcoal and powder. Then they closed the secret door and left together.

After using "Travel" to return to the "Golden Dream", Edwina announced to everyone that the problem had been solved. Everyone looked at Odysseus with some wariness and cheered symbolically.

Odysseus said to Edwina, "Now that the problem has been solved, I will go back first."

Vice Admiral Iceberg asked, "Aren't you staying for breakfast?"

At this time, the sky in the east was already turning white, and dawn was about to arrive.

"No need." Odysseus yawned, "I want to go back and catch up on my sleep."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, summoned an illusory door, and pushed it open to go in.

Only then did the crew of the "Golden Dream" burst into cheers from the bottom of their hearts.

Edwina immediately took the umbrella and opened it, wanting to study the magic circle. However, as soon as the umbrella was opened, the characters on it ignited a pale flame.

Not only the umbrellas, but all the characters in the restaurant and Blue's room were on fire, and in a very short time, nothing was left.

Edwina watched the flames burn quietly. She didn't think Odysseus was stingy. It would be strange if such an important magic circle had no sense of confidentiality.

Although she could draw the magic circle through "secret techniques", she had no way of studying the original magic circle.

……

Odysseus returned to the Argo, thought about nothing, and fell asleep.

He slept until around nine in the morning and first went to the "Knowledge Wilderness" to take a look at the work of the two "intelligent puppets".

Seeing that their work progress was quite good, Odysseus was about to leave when he suddenly thought of a question: Could yesterday's exploration be related to Adam?
He hadn't thought about this yesterday, and he hadn't had time to think about this issue the two times he entered the "Wilderness of Knowledge" before, once to think about digesting the potion and once to observe his new abilities.

Logically speaking, Adam had once taken over that church, so it seemed reasonable for Him to use it to "write a story" or something.

But then Odysseus felt that what happened yesterday should not be a "story" made up by Adam, because the one who explored with Odysseus was "Vice Admiral Iceberg".

If Adam had been involved in such an action, the "God of Knowledge and Wisdom" might have intervened.

Thinking of this, Odysseus felt relieved, because even if it was a story made up by Adam, he couldn't do anything to Adam.

The spoils were obtained and a connection was established with "Vice Admiral Iceberg". This kind of "story" is also quite good.

Then there is no need to worry about whether you have entered into Adam's story.

Odysseus returned to the real world, had breakfast, went to the cockpit to check the heading, and then returned to the studio with a pot of tea.

He had to think about one question: how to digest the magic potion of the "Astrologer".

Sitting on the chair and drinking a sip of tea, Odysseus used his spiritual sense to confirm again that the "Astrologer" potion in his body also showed some signs of premature digestion.

But it is very rare, maybe only one in ten.

The good news is that the potion shows signs of being digested early, which ensures that Odysseus is in good condition.

The bad news is that if I digest this little bit in advance, my "rapid promotion" journey may come to an end.

Then it is necessary to think seriously about how to digest the magic potion of "Astrologer". We cannot consider this problem only after being promoted for a period of time, as we did when we were "Scroll Professor".

In Odysseus's impression, the image of an "astrologer" is similar to that of a "fortune teller", probably a charlatan holding a crystal ball.

Therefore, Odysseus's first idea for acting was to study the "Diviner's Code" summarized by Klein to see if there were any signs that could be digested.

The second idea is to move closer to "knowledge". Compared with "fortune teller", the image of "astrologer" is more erudite. You can try to do mystical research to see if there are any signs of digestion.

　Thanks to [Vk is Faith] for the reward again.
