The Modern Age of the Mysterious

Sean, who received the first press release fee, felt light and relaxed in his heart.

"It's not just this manuscript fee..." Sean got off the tram one stop early, he wanted to take a walk, "My reporter function can also dig out more news, and can form manuscripts very quickly.

"This means that while I'm looking for Aaliyah and becoming an explorer, I can also get enough funds!"

Before, Sean was very anxious - he really couldn't make time to make money. If this problem is not solved, then sooner or later he will be in trouble in New Zealand.

This time, due to Dyson Lauer's exclusive interview, he received a good income, which dispelled this anxiety and gave him more confidence.

It was almost dinner time, he was walking easily, and suddenly he smelled a tempting fragrance...

"It's the smell of fried steak in butter..." He saw a "David Steakhouse" not far away.

Inside the glass window, a man is concentratingly enjoying the tenderly fried beef in front of him with a knife and fork.

The table knife cuts the browned beef on the outside, and the pink inside flows out of gravy...

Sean turned to face the road, as if thinking about something: "Should I reward myself?"

In the past, in his hometown, after making progress in work, Sean would bring home delicious food to share with Aaliyah. Sometimes it’s apple pie, sometimes it’s meatloaf or fried fish…

He still remembered Arya's satisfied face with the apple filling on her face when she was eating pie.

Ever since Sean realized that the search for Aaliyah could turn into a long journey, he's been saving money. The cost of accommodation has been temporarily saved, but Sean usually chooses the cheapest meal - he is only willing to spend money when it comes to finding his sister.

Mist and Rose's meal is not bad, but the amount of meat in it is really not enough for an adult male.

After a little hesitation, Sean still walked into the restaurant: "The training of the explorers is also very hard. From this point of view, I should eat more meat."

Sean chose a seat in the back and ordered a T-bone steak.

About fifteen minutes later, the waiter brought a large hot wooden plate and placed it in front of Sean.

The beef garnished with herbs, after being scrambled on a high fire, forms a strip-shaped brownish texture on the surface. In order to lock in the gravy and make it easier to eat, the waiter used a sharp knife to cut the T-bone steak, which is larger than a human face, into strips while it was still hot.

The browned surface envelops the ruby-like inner side. Black pepper and butter are stimulated by the heat to create an appetizing aroma…

Sean slowly finished the fragrant beef meal, and when he drank coffee, he felt a little guilty in his heart: "I don't know how Aaliyah is now, but I have a big meal here... Really …”

On the other hand, Sean knew that there were still many challenges in front of him, and it was necessary to take in some high nutrition, so he did not indulge in this emotion.

When he walked out of the restaurant, he reminisced and thought: "The steak in this restaurant is good. When I find Aaliyah, I must bring her to try it!"

Taking a walk drove away the sleepiness after dinner, and when Sean returned to his room, he was able to start reading a book immediately.

Among the bibliography of the explorer's assessment, there are two books that are quite special. The title pages of the two books "Ancient God Investigation Report Summary" and "Overview of Evil Beliefs" stated that when reading these two books, the spirit will be impacted to a certain extent.

In short, the content in these two books can make people feel uncomfortable and frightened, thus affecting the reader's mental state.

Sean knows that with all mental shocks, there is a danger that people will lose their senses and fall into permanent dementia or madness.

However, if the impact is within a tolerable range, then, after experiencing this damage, the mental strength will actually increase.

This is similar to the fact that a person who hears ghost stories will feel very scared. If he listens too much, he will become immune to horror stories. Proper fright and mental shock are actually a kind of "cultivation" of mental strength.

"I'm still not calm enough in the face of terrifying things." Sean remembered the kind of fear that his fingertips were shaking when he was facing the dead and evil spirits, "With my current mental strength, if I encounter more If it is a deep horror, I am afraid that it will directly lose its reason.

"To become a dementia or a lunatic is no different from death.

"Now, it is very necessary for me to strengthen my mental strength to ensure that my soul will not be unstable due to fear, that I will not lose my soul, and that I will not lose my mind."

So, Sean decided to exercise his mental strength while reading—he planned to finish reading these two books in one go.

For ordinary people, reading these two books may be a long-term process. Because, if you are overly frightened during the reading process, which leads to a decrease in mental strength, you must wait until your spirit recovers before continuing to read, otherwise there will be serious consequences.

Although Sean's mental strength is limited, fortunately, his soul is nourished by the candlestick symbol. Even if he is greatly frightened, his sanity level can be restored to a good state in a short period of time.

Therefore, Sean read these two books in one breath, as the basis for mental strength training.

Sean made up his mind, and in the quiet room, he opened the book...

"Ancient God Investigation Report Summary" is very precious information. The ancient gods referred to here refer to a powerful existence that existed in ancient times, and they are also called "Old Lords".

"Old Lords" are absolutely evil beliefs in contemporary times, because what they represent is destruction and chaos. The search for them will inevitably lead to terrible disaster.

The age of the ancient gods predates the emergence of human civilization, and belief in them is very rare. But even with a long-term barrier, some strange events that the explorers have to face still originate from them. This shows how terrifying the ancient gods are.

Most of these investigation reports recorded in this book have paid extremely terrifying or extremely tragic prices.

Taking into account the possible impact, in this summary of the basic information of explorers, UU Reading www. Many reports on uukanshu.com are not completely recorded. If you want to know the whole truth, you must become an explorer and improve your explorer level before you can borrow detailed information.

However, even if this summary data is reserved, it can already have a great impact on sensitive nerves.

In the "Overview of Evil Beliefs", it records the terrible beliefs that the pioneers of the explorers have encountered around the world, some of which involve the old masters, and some belong to the fallen traditional gods and so on.

Sean took advantage of this time to finish reading the two books, and after closing the book, he sighed: "Whether it is the old ruler or the distorted traditional god, evil beliefs have existed since ancient times...

"If the main body of the belief belongs to evil, then the magic used by such believers is sorcery. Sorcery usually causes very dire consequences...

"Not only that, this type of belief will directly cause believers to go crazy. Some extremely filthy beliefs can even change the nature of believers...

"They will change from human to something inhuman..."

When reading these two books, Sean could clearly feel the feeling of fear creeping up his back. But after these two days of intensive impact and beating, the lingering sense of fear has significantly lessened...

"This should be the effect of the increase in mental strength..."

Not only did he further increase his mystical knowledge, he also conquered two more books for the explorer's assessment, and further improved his mental strength. Sean got up and waved his fist with satisfaction.

When he left the newspaper that day, Sean made an appointment with Jimmy to visit the gathering of believers in [Melinas]. Just as it was approaching the appointed time, he put away the book, packed it up, and went out.
