The Final Story of Miss Weird
Page 185
This parchment scroll records in detail how to depict rituals, how to construct inspiration circuits, how to perform sacrifices, and how to avoid being completely taken away by the weirdness.
The reason why the Pioneers can rely on their numbers far less than that of the Order-side organizations is largely because they possess this secret technique.
After obtaining the secret technique, even a mid-level awakener of level 4 to 6 could threaten a high-level awakener above level 7.
If you are not careful, you will die miserably.
"However, the 'Company' seems to have a similar secret technique. Lin Jianming used it once before he died, and it seems to be more complete... So, this should be considered a modified version?"
Luo Ling calmly put away the parchment. The religious man then took out an ancient ring. He held the ring carefully and gently in front of Luo Ling and said,
"This is a 'Forbidden Ring', which contains a trace of the power of 'Taboo'. If used with secret techniques, you can gain the power of 'Taboo' for a short period of time... However, you must be extremely careful when using it.
"Once you embark on the forbidden path, it is irreversible. Even with your talent, it will be difficult to fully control it, unless -"
At this point, the religious man suddenly realized that he had said too much, so he paused, changed the subject and continued, "You will know later. Anyway, put away the "forbidden ring" and keep it carefully. It can save your life at a critical moment."
"Wow, they can even get the "forbidden" things and give them to ordinary members. The "Pioneers" are really the number one enemy of the "Company". "
Luo Ling couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He took the ring and hid it.
In fact, she had another idea. She wondered if she would be able to make further progress in the "Naraku" form or gain a new form if she "swallowed" this ring.
If it's the former, it would be a huge loss. A little bit of "taboo" power is definitely much better than just being dog food. The latter is very good, but... the existence of "taboo" may be difficult to control perfectly.
The "Naraku" form is not very obedient, and there are many mistakes when using abilities...
The last item, as expected, was a sacrificial vessel.
From the religious people's endless envious gazes, it can be seen that not every new member who joins the pioneers can get it.
Sacrificial vessels are extremely precious no matter where they are, and this is no exception inside the Pioneers.
The religious man reluctantly handed the dagger to Luo Ling, his tone full of envy, "Theologian, this is a sacrificial vessel specially given to you by the educator. It is called "Life". You can explore its specific abilities and uses on your own."
At this point, the religious scholar could not help but add,
"Sacrificial vessels are extremely precious. Even an ordinary awakener would hardly be able to obtain one in his entire life. Even I can only be considered to have half of one... The educator is very optimistic about your future, so he prepared such a generous gift."
Luo Ling, who had more than a few pieces in her hands and was backed by a master refiner who specialized in making sacrificial vessels, nodded in agreement. She also thought that sacrificial vessels were very precious. This was enough to show that the educator really favored Alyssa.
"You are so kind, Mr. Educator, I would be disrespectful to refuse your kindness."
Luo Ling didn't even have the slightest intention of refusing and took the dagger without any hesitation.
After feeling it for a while, I felt that it should be made of the holy remains of the "Silence" path, but the crafting technique is quite clever, making this sacrificial vessel present the characteristics of "all spirits".
In fact, this should not be called a dagger. It is just a staff made to look like a dagger. Its main function is healing, which is indeed in line with Alyssa's ability.
After giving the theologian the "welcome gift", the religious man's expression became more serious and he said, "Theologian, since you have truly joined the pioneers, there are some more important tasks...that you have to undertake."
He raised his hand, pointed to the shrine next to him, and said in a deep voice, "The matter of the White Witch will be left to you to arrange... From now on, you are the apostle of the White Witch. By using the power of this sacrificial vessel, you will be able to carry the aura of the White Witch."
"Ah?" Luo Ling was slightly stunned, "I am the apostle of the White Witch?"
"Of course, of course, I know you are not the White Witch, such a cruel devil. I know you hate her so much, how could you possibly become her apostle?" The religious man said quickly, "It's just that the Pioneers are currently carrying out some plans, and they need you to disguise yourself a little to cooperate with them, understand?"
During this period of time, the religious people told Alyssa about most of the things in the awakened world, including the tragedy of the "White Witch", of course, all from the perspective of the pioneers.
According to religious figures, "corporations" are the biggest villains in the world, and are evil organizations that prevent them from saving the world.
...Although Luo Ling thinks that the two organizations are equally matched, the two brothers should not laugh at each other.
"Excuse me, what do I need to do?" Luo Ling asked calmly.
After hearing the theologian's answer, the religious man finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was worried that given the theologian's character, he would refuse to become an apostle of the "White Witch", even if it was just pretend.
"Act secretly as the apostle of the White Witch to distract the attention of the Company. During this period... the Pioneers must not be disturbed."
The religious man thought for a moment and lowered his voice a bit, "To be precise, it's me. I can't be disturbed. I can't tell you the details now, but you will understand later."
At this moment, the religious man couldn't help but raise the corner of his mouth. He was warned by the educator not to reveal the fact that he was about to be promoted to the fourth leader, so he kept it in his heart.
Finally, I found an opportunity. Even if it was just a little bit, I tried to ease his pent-up mood.
In front of Luo Ling who knew the inside story, this sentence undoubtedly revealed the Pioneer's plan in its entirety to her.
"It seems that they need the "company" to distract their minds so as not to disturb the promotion of the religious people, so they take such actions."
Luo Ling said silently in her heart, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and nodded, "Okay, I agree, but... I can disguise myself as the apostle of the "White Witch", but not as a saint."
"Of course. No matter what, the Saint should not be the devil's apostle. Even I would not agree with such an arrangement."
The religious man said, "You just need to secretly leave traces of the "White Witch" in various locations in Victoria. How to achieve it... is up to you to decide."
After explaining all this, the religious leader stood up and was about to leave.
But at this moment, Luo Ling suddenly thought of something and called the religious man, "By the way, Mr. Religious Man, can I ask a rather presumptuous question?"
"Hmm?" The religious man paused and said, "You can say it anyway."
"Which path do you belong to?" Luo Ling asked.
"This question is not presumptuous, it's okay to just say it directly," the religious man said with a smile, "I am an awakened person of the "Other Shore" path. As for my specific abilities... this is presumptuous."
We haven't reached the level of being very open with each other yet, so how can I easily tell you my detailed abilities?
"Well, I understand." Luo Ling said thoughtfully.
"Why, Her Highness the Saint, do you have some questions that need to be answered here?" The religious man said with a serious expression.
"Shouldn't those with abilities on the 'Other Shore' path all be 'Sky Speakers'?" Luo Ling asked.
"That's right, so I am also a member of the Sky Speaker."
The religious man said calmly, "It's just that I came into contact with the Sky Speakers after joining the Pioneers, so I can be considered a non-staff member - although among the Sky Speakers, except for the Four Great Omens, almost all others are non-staff members.
"Almost all members of the Sky Speakers belong to other forces, and some are even members of the evil "Company."
This was a point of knowledge that Luo Ling didn't know. She only knew that there were good and bad people among the "Sky Speakers", but she didn't expect it to be to this extent.
However, from this point of view, the religious person should only be a middle-level awakener of the fourth to sixth level, and has not entered the ranks of high-level awakeners, at least that was the case before.
It has always been quite difficult for awakeners on the "Other Shore" path to advance. Among the "Speakers of the Sky", only the Four Great Omens are high-level awakeners.
"Your Highness, do you have any other questions?" asked the religious person.
"No more, sir, please be careful on your way." Luo Ling said lightly.
After a brief greeting, the religious leader left in a hurry.
"You were a mid-level awakener before, but you have to force yourself to go through the promotion ceremony? It seems that you have spent the past three months... preparing for these things."
Spore saw the back of the religious man leaving the church. Luo Ling's expression darkened. "Moreover, this promoted person belongs to the 'other shore' path."
The path hidden by philosophers is "this life".
The other side of the "other shore".
Luo Ling would never believe that there was no hidden connection between the two.
"It seems that 'the victim' is also quite popular among the Pioneers."
Luo Ling bent his fingers and tapped the table lightly, a sneer slightly appearing on the corner of his mouth, "You are indeed a pair of brothers who 'come from the same origin but go their separate ways'."
Chapter 5: Do whatever you want to her... (5k)
At sunset.
Although for Victoria, the difference between day and night may just be the ability to see the thick fog that permeates the entire city.
Everything was shrouded in thick fog, and even at noon it was as gloomy as midnight.
At this time of year in Victoria, it is almost a luxury to bask in the warm sunshine. The warm sun can only flash for a few moments in the afternoon, followed by a long and dense fog.
Just like what this city is experiencing now, it is filled with chaos and the unknown, drowning everyone in it, no matter who they are... no one is an exception.
The blind, blindfolded nun sat in a wheelchair, with a thin girl behind her, holding an umbrella for her to block the incessant drizzle in Victoria, while pushing the wheelchair towards home.
"Sister, so...you won't pray alone in church anymore?"
Stasha asked curiously. In the past, her sister would stay until the stars came out at night before leaving the cathedral to go home. But today, there was still some afterglow of the sunset on the skyline, but she was in a hurry to go home.
I always feel that my sister is in a worse mood today than usual, as if she is worried about something.
Stasha felt the same way, but she could do nothing about it.
Alas, I don't know when I can help my sister...
"more or less."
Luo Ling replied softly and fell into deep thought again.
At this time, Luo Ling's consciousness was still in Alyssa's body. Just as Stasha guessed, she was indeed still worried about something.
Now, Luo Ling already roughly knows the purpose of the mission that the leaders of the "Pioneers" assigned to the "theologian" Alyssa.
With the appearance of the "White Witch" apostle, the "Company"'s attention was diverted, making the company mistakenly believe that the top priority now is to deal with the cooperation and alliance between the Pioneers and the White Witch.
Even if the company realizes that this so-called cooperation may be fake, it must divert a lot of energy to it, otherwise...if it is true, the company will only face a disastrous result.
In other words, Alisa was given the task of confronting the "Company".
Although she was assigned several pioneers to assist her in this mission, it was still quite dangerous.
Of course, this danger is not for Alyssa, but for "Her Royal Highness the Saint".
As Luo Ling's favored one and the incarnation of the White Witch, she doesn't have much power to threaten Alyssa. If she wants to kill her completely, she must treat her as a "high-risk weirdness", otherwise she won't be able to die completely even if she dies.
Therefore, Luo Ling was worried that once Alyssa was exposed to the "company", this useful shell of Her Highness the Saint would be completely unusable.
Even the Church of Light will be completely dismantled by the "Company", and Luo Ling's intelligence network throughout Victoria will be completely cut off. This can be considered a loss.
Apart from this, there is a more important issue.
In Spore's vision at this moment, a girl with short flaxen hair was trying her best to push a wheelchair.
Even with Luo Ling's help in secret, the poor road conditions in Victoria still caused the wheelchair to go up and down, with gravel flying everywhere. The bumps even made Stasha's little hands turn purple and numb for a while.
"Stasha."
Luo Ling suddenly spoke out.
"What's the matter, sister?"
Stasha's voice sounded exhausted as she spoke breathlessly.
"you..."
As Luo Ling was speaking, he suddenly thought of something, paused, and did not say anything else.
"Sister, don't just say half of what you want to say." Stasha pricked up her ears and listened attentively, but for a long time she didn't hear what her sister wanted to say.
"I just haven't figured out how to say it yet." Luo Ling's eyes dropped. This familiar scene made her feel a little scared. The words she thought of came to her lips, but she couldn't say them.
In any case, now Saint Alyssa of the Church of Light has reached a precarious position where she is the target of public criticism. The "Pioneers" have put her in the spotlight, and the "Company" is pointing the finger at her.
Everything was burning like a fire, but the only means Luo Ling had to resist the fire was a piece of paper, which would turn into ashes if accidentally touched.
At this moment, Victoria is like a lonely huge ship sailing in the storm. The people on the ship are fighting, and the storm outside the ship is watching closely.
Even the awakened ones find it difficult to protect themselves, let alone ordinary people... In such an environment, they are really vulnerable.
Any casual action of the "company" or a plan accidentally proposed by the "pioneer" will be an abyss from which there is no return for ordinary people.
Stasha is just such an ordinary person who is in a precarious situation. Especially since the person closest to her is Alyssa, who is under the attack of thousands of arrows. A small mistake can cost her her life.
Luo Ling originally wanted to keep Stasha away from Victoria, a ship full of crises, but she inexplicably thought of her sister at that time. She felt very complicated for a moment and couldn't speak.
In fact, the safest place should be the Kingdom of God. Until now, neither the company nor the pioneers have recognized the existence of the Kingdom of God.
Now Luo Ling has a kingdom of God in his hands, which is Lina's "Starry Victoria".
But... ordinary people cannot step into the Kingdom of God, because the Kingdom of God is a distorted world. Even ordinary awakened people who are not aware of the existence of boundaries will experience cognitive confusion when they are in the Kingdom of God, not to mention ordinary people.
For example, when Eve accidentally entered the kingdom of God for the first time, she relied on extremely precious holy medicine to avoid falling into madness, otherwise... we would not see this iron-fisted maid lady anymore.
There is no need to say more about Stasha. There is only one consequence for her entering "Starry Victoria", which is that she becomes a complete lunatic. The distorted world is difficult for her to resist even if she falls into a deep sleep.
"Stasha, have you had anything else to do recently?" Luo Ling asked softly.
