Chapter 53 Search
At nightfall, in Igwent, in an apartment on Nanyanghua Road in the upper city.
Dorothy lay on the sofa, looking curiously at the ring on her hand that was shining with a dim silver light. This ring was the one Dorothy had worn all her life. In her memory, it was the only thing left by her mother whom she had never met.
And now, when Dorothy saw this object, a strange silver light was emitting from it. Dorothy understood what this silver light was. This was because she had just acquired Kane's identification technique, and now she could directly identify extraordinary objects with her naked eyes.
"This heirloom ring from my mother actually glows? Does this mean it's an extraordinary item?"
Dorothy thought in astonishment. She had never expected that her cheap mother who had no memory would leave behind extraordinary items! Does this mean that she has some kind of connection with the secret world? Or is she an extraordinary person?
But which Beyonder would abandon his research on the mysteries and go to a remote countryside to marry a hunter and have children? It's really strange just to think about it...
Suddenly, Dorothy thought again of what Oldman had said before.
"Whether it's Dorothea or Meshhos, your name and surname are rare in this country. They have a bit of an oriental flavor..."
"Yes... Greg and I have very rare names in this country. According to what Aunt Hannah said in my memory, our father's level of culturalization was not high. Our names may have been given by our mother. The mother of this suspected Beyonder may also be a foreigner... From a country in the East?"
Sitting cross-legged on the sofa, Dorothy was confused and thinking, but after thinking for a long time she couldn't figure out anything, so she decided not to worry about her mother for the time being.
"Huh... I can't think of anything like this. Why don't I just identify this ring? Maybe there's some relevant information on it."
Then, Dorothy stared at the crescent moon-decorated item in her hand, concentrating intently, and began to use identification skills to identify it. Since her Cain identification skills were incomplete, she had to pay a price and consume spiritual energy, and the type of spiritual energy that needed to be consumed was... "lamp".
"Heh... the identification requires a 'light'... so it seems that the 'light' has the meaning of insight, observation and dispelling puzzles... "
As she thought about it, Dorothy used her only "light" to identify the ring in her hand, and then the information about the ring appeared in front of her eyes directly.
"Blocking and Hidden Ring"
"Effect: After endowing 'Shadow' with spirituality, it can shield the spirituality of the holder and other extraordinary items on the holder, blocking the detection ability against the holder. When blocking the detection ability, it is necessary to provide additional 'Shadow' to offset the spirituality of the detection. The higher the level of the detection ability or the spirituality provided, the more additional 'Shadow' needs to be provided."
After seeing the identification result in front of her, Dorothy pondered for a while. After carefully savoring the ability of this ring, she began to think in her heart.
'It can shield the spirituality of me and other extraordinary items on me. This means that if other extraordinary people have passive skills similar to identification that can see spirituality, I can be protected by this ring? If someone uses the detection skill to forcibly detect me, I can also consume the spirituality of "shadow" to prevent the other party from detecting anything? "This is a thing that can hide one's own extraordinaryness. Although the Holy Communion is a "cup" association and lacks the detection means of "light", it is probably useless at present, but if I face other extraordinary people with detection abilities in the future, this thing may be useful.'
Carefully examining the ring in her hand, Dorothy thought to herself that she was still quite wary of information leaks, and having this thing would give her an extra layer of assurance.
"This can be considered a gift from my mother... But come to think of it, what's the point of her leaving this thing for the original Dorothy? If she doesn't become a Beyonder herself, this thing is completely meaningless..."
Dorothy was leaning lazily on the sofa, thinking about this, when suddenly, the voice of the system rang in her mind.
'Warning... Monitoring the search for information about yourself. Warning... Monitoring the search for information about yourself... The estimated search completion time is 124 seconds. It is recommended to take action.'
Dorothy was startled when she heard the voice. She jumped up from the sofa and immediately asked the system.
"Information retrieval? What information retrieval system?" Dorothy asked hurriedly, and the system continued to answer.
'Combined use of 'light' and 'start', use 'start' to open the information channel, and use 'light' to search for specific information. After the search is completed, the specific information will be obtained. It is recommended to implement symmetry. The estimated search completion time is 112 seconds.'
The system continued to respond coldly. Dorothy couldn't help but frown as she listened to the system's words.
"Using spirituality to retrieve specific information? This means using spirituality to obtain certain information that you want to know? This feels like fortune-telling... or in a more mystical way... divination?
'Am I being divined? Someone is trying to get my information through occult means?'
Immediately, Dorothy had a rough guess about her current situation, and then she immediately asked the system.
'How can I counter the search? '
Dorothy continued to ask, since the system can monitor information retrieval, accurately predict the time when the retrieval will be completed, and even remind herself to take countermeasures, then there should be some countermeasures.
Sure enough, the system quickly responded to Dorothy.
'Solution 1. Corresponding to the 'light' and 'start' of the search party, provide equal amounts of 'shadow' and 'start', and search shielding can be performed.
'Solution 㟧. Provide 'light' and 'start' higher than the search party, and reverse search can be performed.
'Solution 3. Provide 'silence' corresponding to the retrieved information, and delete the information.
'Scheme 4. After the reverse search is successful, if the address of the search party is obtained, a 'start' of no less than three times the address of the search party can be provided for feedback.
'The search efficiency provided by the monitoring search party is 1 point 'light' 1 point 'start', and the estimated search completion time is 90 seconds.'
After listening to the system reporting four solutions in one breath, Dorothy's mind was a little confused for a moment. After shaking her head, she began to sort out her thoughts carefully and think about what these four solutions meant. However, when she realized that she only had 90 seconds left, she realized that this was not the time to think too much and she had to quickly choose a solution.
In fact, after Dorothy listened to the spiritual requirements of these plans, she found that she had no choice at the moment. She had just used up the only "light", so she passed the plan. Now she had no idea how many points of "silence" the monitored information corresponded to, and there was only a little "silence" at the moment and she didn't want to use it, so plan three was also passed. Don't even think about plan four, it was built on the basis of the completed plan, and she didn't have so many "inspirations" to give feedback, so she passed it even more.
Then the final option is only option 1.
By providing equal amounts of "shadow" and "start" corresponding to the "light" and "start" of the searcher, the search can be blocked.
The searcher provided 1 point for "light" and 1 point for "start", and Dorothy now has both of these.
'System, I want to perform a search block.'
