Chapter 42 Interface
Sitting at the desk, Dorothy looked at the last few paragraphs on the torn pages with the help of the desk lamp. The alternative plans for the guide recorded therein aroused Dorothy's interest, and then she began to think about their possibilities one by one.
"Can spiritual items with matching attributes replace the guide? If so, I need to find items containing 'inspiration', but 'inspiration' mainly exists in knowledge, where can I find items containing 'inspiration'!"
Dorothy thought about this and it was obvious that the nature of "Inspiration" was difficult to be contained in physical objects. It would be extremely difficult to find it, at least it was difficult to get it with her current means. The most she could do was to ask Odchi if he had it. Even if he had it, it would be extremely expensive.
"But this method seems to be more reliable than going directly to find Qi's Beyonder. You can write it down first..."
Then Dorothy began to think about the second option.
"Praying to a high-ranking divine being, who can guide the ceremony if he wants, this... feels even less reliable than all the previous plans..."
Dorothy thought like this, not to mention whether the high-ranking divine being would pay attention to her as a pawn, even if he did, who could guarantee that he would be kind enough to help? The remaining pages also clearly stated that even if there was a response, the result would most likely not be positive. This result was completely uncontrollable, the risk was too great, and she might be finished if she was not careful.
What's more crucial is that Dorothy now has no idea what high-level divine beings there are. The only gods she knows about in this world are the Three Saints of the Radiant Church. God knows if the Three Saints really exist. Even if they really exist, there are more than one billion people praying to them every day. How could they care about Dorothy? Not to mention that from the current situation, the church is also against mystery and esotericism. Wouldn't Dorothy be walking into a trap if she prayed to the god of the church?
Leaning back in her chair, frowning, Dorothy fell into deep thought, wondering how she could find a guide for herself...
"Hiss... What should I do? Looking for a person is definitely unreliable, and I don't know where to find something. Looking for a divine being is even more outrageous. I don't even know how to pray, so how can I find it..."
Dorothy murmured softly, and just as she finished speaking, suddenly another voice echoed.
"I don't even know how to find it..."
Dorothy was stunned by the inexplicable voice in her head, and then she straightened up in the chair.
"What was that sound just now?!"
Dorothy thought about it in amazement, and then she realized that the voice in her head seemed to be her own? And it was the words she muttered, although only the latter part.
'What's going on? My words are echoing in my head? Am I sick? Or is this some other mysterious phenomenon? Or is it that the so-called poison has finally taken effect and I'm going insane?'
Dorothy thought to herself that this might be the onset of the poison and she was immediately startled, then she immediately started to think of a solution.
'No, I have to give it a try...'
"Hello...Hello...Can you hear me?"
Dorothy whispered a few more words quietly, but there was no echo in her head as before, which made Dorothy wonder if she had just had some illusion.
"No, think about it carefully... How did the words I just said appear? Why did only the last part appear, and it's not complete? How did I say the whole thing just now..."
Dorothy thought for a moment, then tried again to speak silently.
"It seems like... something or other, I don't even know how to pray..."
As soon as Dorothy finished speaking, the echo appeared in her mind again.
"I don't know..."
“Oh shit…”
Seeing this, Dorothy immediately suppressed her emotions and began to think carefully about the common characteristics of what she said when the two echoes appeared. Then she immediately came to a conclusion.
"I think I said a prayer and it immediately gave me an echo in my head?"
Having come to this conclusion, Dorothy decided to try again immediately, and then she whispered again.
"Pray... Hey, hey, hello, hello, Moses, Moses, can you hear me now?"
"Hey, hey~ Hello, hello~ Moshi Moshi~ Can you hear me now?"
"Fuck, I heard it again. I was just talking to myself on the phone..."
Hearing the echo in her head again, Dorothy couldn't help but complain in her heart, but after this experiment, Dorothy has almost determined what the key words are that trigger the echo.
That is "prayer".
Later, Dorothy conducted several more experiments and finally confirmed that the word "prayer" could trigger the phenomenon of echoing in her brain.
Why does this happen?
Dorothy just thought about it carefully and had a rough guess in her mind that there was only one thing that could speak in her mind.
"System...were you the one who spoke just now?"
'confirm. '
It was indeed the system. Only this thing could speak in her mind. After Dorothy confirmed that the previous voice was caused by the system, she felt relieved. At least she was sure that she was not mentally ill due to an overdose of drugs... However, the system's answer also made Dorothy have more questions.
Why can the system understand the word "prayer" and also say what it means to paraphrase prayer?
Suddenly, Dorothy had an idea. The system she brought with her when she traveled through time and space could connect to the knowledge of other worlds and directly extract spirituality from that knowledge. It must be of a high status. So could it respond to prayers?
If the system can act as a guide, wouldn’t the current problem be solved?
With this thought in mind, Dorothy continued to ask questions to the system.
'System, are you able to receive prayers? Can you act as a guide for advancement?'
'Confirmed, can receive and relay prayers, can guide gifts...'
The system replied. After listening to what the system said, Dorothy began to analyze the meaning of this passage... According to the system, it was actually receiving prayers for itself and relaying them to its own brain. What just happened was actually a few words that it said casually were relayed as prayers?
There is also the gift of guidance... The gift is actually equivalent to a divine being acting as a guide for mortals?
After confirming this, Dorothy frowned slightly. Now she began to wonder what this system was that she had traveled with.
There is no way that anything in this world exists without reason, even this system is the same, it should be closely related to one's own time travel.
After thinking about it for a while, Dorothy decided to ask with determination.
"System, what are you...? Or what is your essence?"
Dorothy asked, but because of previous experience, she did not expect the system to answer. However, this time, the system spoke, and it answered with a word in a voice like a soft whisper.
