"Just now when the old butler was cursed by the mummy... the mummy seemed to say that if the old butler was not a blood relative of Neveu's grandfather, and was also a psychic, he should have died immediately at his age. According to what he said... psychics seem to have a certain ability to adapt to curses."
Dorothy thought so and she knew what "psychic" meant. It was the name of the apprentice level on the path of "Silence". According to the mummy, the extraordinary people of "Silence" seemed to be able to adapt to the curse of "Silence" to a certain extent.
So if we let Nephnis become a psychic now...what will happen then?"
Dorothy thought so, and then she immediately found that this seemed feasible. First of all, there was a "silent" magic circle built on the ground of this secret room, which could be used as a promotion magic circle.
Later, Dorothy recalled the secret manuals she had shown Nefernis and found that she only had two "silent" secret manuals, and the shamanic knowledge in "Elegy for Florence" and the book on the continent were both listed.
Although Dorothy did not have the physical books of these two secret texts, she had copied them down because of their short length. "Follon's Prayer" was just a few poems, and the shamanic knowledge of the continent was just a few lines of words carved on a piece of bark, which was easy to read in a short time. Dorothy copied them together with short secret texts such as "The Song of the Lamb" in two or three strokes, and gave them to Nefernis together with some other short secret texts, with the purpose of letting her finish reading them faster to accumulate spirituality.
Now, Neveu has completely read "Prayer of Foren" and Shamanic Knowledge, and has accumulated a total of 7 points of "Silence". If she can have a little more "Silence", then she will have met the requirements for the promotion ceremony.
But... how could there be any silence at this time? There were only these two copies of Dorothy's "Silence" secret book, and there couldn't be more.
"Hiss... Is it still not working? Are you going to let me use Feast this time? This is my last Feast, and it consumes 5 points of 'Cups' at once... Do I really want to waste such a precious talisman and so much spirituality here?"
Dorothy was quite confused and embarrassed at the thought, and she was not the only one who was confused at this time.
…
In the secret room under Boyle's mansion, Nefernis was still lying on the ground with her eyes wide open, her body unable to move. The curse that suppressed her had deprived her of all her ability to move, and she couldn't even speak.
However, under the power of the "cup" of life, Nefernis's life was still maintained at a minimum, her heartbeat continued, her breathing did not stop, and the power of the curse seemed unable to go any further and kill Nefernis.
This made the mummy shadow feel a little impatient.
"Why... why as a relative of Davis Boyle... as an ordinary mortal, why haven't you died yet?"
Floating beside Nefernis, the mummy shadow spoke slowly, even his weird voice couldn't help but show displeasure at this moment.
It was obvious that Nefernis, with only her eyeballs able to move, was unable to answer any questions from the mummy's shadow. After floating around Nefernis again, the shadow continued to speak.
"It seems... you seem to have some interesting secrets, little Boyle... With the strength I have recovered now... I can't kill you directly, but it doesn't matter. I can project sound and shadow here, and my means are more than this."
Floating, the mummy shadow said so. Now here it is just an illusion and phantom. Apart from guiding the curse that was originally engraved in Boyle's blood and transmitting information, it should not be able to directly interfere in other ways.
However, in this world, a lot of information itself carries a strong enough influence. The mummy's shadow can not only convey information, but also convey this influence.
"Be grateful, for not every mortal has the privilege of hearing my teachings."
At the end of the narration, the mummy's phantom opened its mouth like a declaration, and then a series of awkward syllables came out of its mouth, echoing in the small secret room.
"Ah... Great Judge of Heaven... Please forgive our sins... Falling is for continuation... Betrayal is for loyalty... Although from the beginning of the living soul we fall into the silence of the dead soul... But our country will eventually be revived in that underground..."
A dry and dull voice echoed in the secret room, and the ghost of the mummy seemed to be singing some poem. Every byte of this poem was filled with vicious poison. Seeing this, Nunot, who was gasping for breath against the wall, immediately covered his ears with his weak hands, and looked with difficulty at Nefernis who was not able to move at all not far away.
"Um... Cover your ears and don't listen... Miss..."
Nunot shouted weakly. He was also an extraordinary person. He understood what the mummy shadow was chanting at this moment. It was a secret teaching, forbidden knowledge that carried a vicious toxin!
After discovering that his curse could not kill Nefernis for a while, the mummy shadow whose real body was far away in the ancient tomb of North Ufeija chose to continue to recite the ancient secrets in it, hoping to use the powerful poison contained in it to harm Nefernis.
Covering his ears, Nunot shouted desperately to Nefernis, but his weak voice was completely suppressed by the chanting of the mummy ghost. The ancient syllables still came into Nefernis' ears without any obstacles, one after another, and the poisonous information was recorded by Nefernis's still clear mind.
Just like that, the mummy's phantom chanted poems with a high degree of poison identification, and looked at Nefernis lying on the ground, helplessly listening to the poems word by word. It chanted to its heart's content, quietly waiting for Nefernis to mutate in order to identify poison.
Poor Nefernis could only lie on the ground, unable to move at all. She could only passively listen to these vicious poems, unable to say anything, unable to do anything… She couldn't even laugh heartily with her hands covering her belly out of joy.
…
"Damn... I'll give you whatever you need... If you lack spirituality, you can still get it delivered to your door..."
At this moment, Dorothy was sitting in the study room at No. 17 in Green Shade Town, helping Nephthys extract the poison identification while talking about it. The spirituality she extracted must be the "silent" spirituality. She was originally worrying about how to get 10 points of "silence" for Nephthys to upgrade her, but she didn't expect that the mummy would come to her rescue and start to sing the secret.
Although Dorothy didn't understand what the mummy was thinking at first, she immediately took action to extract the poison that Nefernis had ingested.
Under Dorothy's manipulation, Neveu, who was lying on the ground, was listening to the secret teachings while her spirituality was increasing. The poison in the poem of the deceased was exactly as the mummy had said, and Neveu's "Silence" spirituality quickly increased to the 10 points required for promotion.
