The Modern Age of the Mysterious

When Sean looked up from the desk again, the sun had already shone in through the gap in the curtains.

He rubbed his swollen eyes: "Although I haven't slept all night, I don't feel very sleepy - this should be because my soul has become stronger."

He got up and made himself a cup of coffee. The fragrance of coffee permeates the room, making Sean feel peaceful: "The folk art recorded in this book is an effective art extracted from the folk customs of various ethnic groups by former explorers.

"Although the effects of these spells are not as powerful as divine spells, they are simple and reliable! Although these spells cannot create an instant advantage in the process of fighting against evil, they can definitely play a good role."

He stood up: "The book records a spell that protects the home environment from being invaded by evil, and has a warning spell, I just can try it.

"The material that needs to be used is...the room's fireplace ash..." Sean walked to the sink, where there was a piece of wood that was purposely burned last night. He collected the ashes inside, "there is no fireplace, you can use the wood burned in the room instead."

"Bread, salt and water that have been used overnight in the room...

"There are a few more drops of my blood."

Sean mixed all the required ingredients in a large bowl. Looking at this bowl of mixed liquid with spiritual vision, Sean actually saw a faint spiritual light...

Although the technique is very simple and almost never fails, after mixing some miscellaneous things, it can actually produce spirituality, which makes him feel very miraculous.

"The ubiquitous mysterious power will protect the concepts in folk culture.

"I used fireplace ashes, food, water, and my own blood to prove that this space is my home environment.

"The power in traditional beliefs recognized this proof, so spirituality was born..."

Sean, who has received a college education and is a journalist, used to be almost a half atheist. But a series of experiences in New Zealand has shattered his previous cognition.

Even now he's doing something mysterious that maybe his grandmother would do in the past, he doesn't think there's anything wrong with him... he even feels a little reassured.

Holding the bowl of materials, Sean wrote protective runes on various walls in the house. While writing, he lightly chanted the incantation of this technique.

Finally, he wrote the largest rune on the door. In his spiritual vision, he could see that these runes were exuding a faint spiritual light.

"Within two months, this room will be protected by traditional power." Sean closed the door, enjoying the feeling of safety with great satisfaction, "Although it can't resist powerful evil spirits, a corpse like before will not be able to. It's easy to get inside."

Sean put the bowl down, and he found that the effect of the home protection technique he implemented seemed to be stronger than what was described in the book: "Maybe this is also the power of the symbols in my body... When recruiting spirituality, there is more Great affinity..."

After doing this, Sean took out the unfinished dinner from the refrigerator yesterday and put it on the fire to warm it up. After eating, he called Catherine's office.

"Catherine, I'm Sean, and I want to make an appointment for the latest quest test."

Catherine on the other side of the phone was silent for two seconds, and then said, "Are you kidding me Sean?"

"I'm serious - I've memorized all the books, and I'm confident in completing the Jack-level tasks."

"But it's not even a month now, how can you memorize all ten books?!" Catherine was a little angry. At the beginning, she was preparing for the exam while working as an actress, but it took more than half a year to have the confidence to apply for the exam. . Now that stunned young man, in less than a month, he said that all the books have been studied?

"Listen, Catherine, my time is precious too. I wouldn't have called you if I wasn't sure enough," Sean said sincerely, "You know I'm still looking for Aaliyah, I'm now I have some clues at hand, I know the confidentiality agreement, so I can only qualify myself as the explorer's library!"

After being silent again for a while, Catherine sighed helplessly: "Okay... I understand how you feel.

"You remember I told you that the fastest time to pass the assessment is two months. Maybe, you can really create miracles. I will apply for the assessment for you, and the rest is up to you."

After hanging up the phone, Catherine frowned, and after a long while, she exhaled: "He has something to accomplish even if he sacrifices his life, and after thinking about it, I have no reason to stop him.

Catherine's eyes moved slightly: "However, I don't need to worry too much. Even if he is attacked by the evil spirit on the Central Avenue, he can still not lose his soul, and maybe he can pass the assessment task smoothly."

Sean's written test is scheduled in two days, but the task is not fixed.

In the past two days, in order to have more hole cards, he tried to meditate to assimilate the newly added "Gemini" symbol.

Completely different from the smooth assimilation of "Witch's Moon", "Gemini" seems to contain deeper resentment, and the process of getting rid of it is extremely difficult. Sean devotes himself to meditation, and after two days, there is no major change. , in that twin symbol, the resentment mixed with red and black is still stubborn.

"Evil Spirit Jason and Julia's spiritual power is much stronger than that witch's corpse, so it is more difficult to clear the resentment." Sean thought, "However, after assimilation, the acquired spiritual power should be will be stronger."

Whenever the assimilation reached the moment when his thoughts were concentrated, Sean would have an indescribable feeling~www.wuxiaspot.com~ He felt as if his soul was wrapped in a cocoon. To break out of the cocoon.

"This seems to indicate that after the assimilation of Gemini, the candlestick symbol will have a huge change..."

The day of the written test came in a blink of an eye. For Sean, the ten required books have all been printed in his mind, and the written test is not difficult. When he was writing in a conference room in the Quest Center, he only felt a little boring.

After "transcribed" all the content on the test paper as quickly as possible, Sean walked out of the conference room under the surprised eyes of the other examinees.

The scoring was carried out on the same day, and Sean passed the written test with no doubt full marks. The staff of the association wearing the mask of "Mediating Elder" took Sean to a separate office and informed Sean about the internship assignment. , and gave him a temporary explorer playing card, as well as a pure white mask without any decoration - "the unknown person". This is a special mask, which symbolizes that the wearer has no definite identity in the task, and also symbolizes that the wearer has infinite possibilities.

Then, Sean planned to do another combat training and found Catherine again.

Seeing Sean holding the white mask of "No Name" in his hand, Catherine's eyes widened: "Did you really pass the written test?!"

Although she vaguely felt that there was something special about Sean and that she might be able to do some unexpected things, when she really learned that Sean, who had been preparing for the test for less than a month, could pass the difficult written test, she Still amazed.

"how did you do it?"

Sean thought for a while, then looked directly at Catherine: "Read the book carefully."

"That's it?"

"That's it."
