Chapter 76: Changes in the Old Secret Scriptures
"How can you say there is no relationship? I still need to apply for reimbursement..."
When his attempt to use public funds to buy favors was exposed, Gallup touched his head, whispered a few words to defend himself, and then quickly changed the subject amid everyone's ambiguous gazes.
"How about it? Everyone, let's have dinner together?"
Under the cordial invitation of many senior students, the four agreed to attend the dinner. They boarded a large flying disc and went to the high-rise area of the college restaurant.
Compared with the ordinary restaurants on the lower floors, the environment in the upper areas appears more luxurious and elegant.
The black pearl wood dining table was covered with a snow-white tablecloth, and delicate silver-leaf roses bloomed in a gold-painted vase in the center of the table.
The light in the environment is soft and comfortable, and the elegant fragrance permeates the air, which unconsciously stimulates one's appetite.
This aroma is a concentration scent specially formulated by the Alchemy Academy. After smelling this scent for a long time, everyone felt that their mental strength began to slightly improve, as if they were meditating and practicing.
In the past, you had to pay credits even to enter the door.
But now, relying on the reimbursement amount, Gallup generously ordered many delicacies made from high-end ingredients and booked a dining time of one and a half magic hours.
During the meal, many senior students of the second and third ranks took the initiative to show their friendship to the four of them.
For Anvis, dealing with these fledgling students was a piece of cake.
In contrast, the other three were not so natural, especially Rona, who was born in a commoner family, who seemed a little embarrassed.
But despite this, no one showed any contempt towards her. Instead, everyone was very friendly and tolerant.
With the identity of a student of Pamir College, the future achievements will not be too low. We are all smart people, and no one wants to make enemies for no reason.
In essence, from the moment they set foot in the Pamirs, they and their past selves had completely become two different classes.
Sitting at one side of the dining table, Avis ate his meal while dealing with the enthusiastic seniors with ease.
Although there were many old students present, none of them had a name that he remembered from his previous life.
In his current position, making friends with ordinary Pamir students is actually of little help to him. It can only be said that it is better than nothing.
To sum it up in one sentence, everyone here is... a potential seed with a lot of room for growth.
With a proper smile on his face, Avis patiently listened to everyone's boasting, smiling and nodding from time to time, as if he really had a strong interest in these topics.
But as he listened, his movements suddenly paused.
A strange, incomprehensible whisper echoed quietly in his heart.
This feeling... the secret book of the old days? "Sorry, everyone, I have something urgent to deal with. I have to excuse myself."
His expression changed slightly, and Avis quickly stood up, said goodbye to everyone with a slight apology, and then hurriedly left the restaurant.
"It's okay, just deal with the urgent matter first."
"Goodbye, Anvis."
"goodbye--"
Everyone looked at him strangely, and said goodbye to him one after another, wondering why he suddenly left.
………
Anvis didn't know what others were thinking. He returned to his residence and was studying the changes in the old secret scriptures.
Since the strange symbols on the cover of the Old Secret Scripture can stimulate mental power and increase its activity and growth rate when it is activated, Avis would read it every day.
But today, some special conditions seemed to have been triggered.
After connecting with Avis's spiritual power, the dark green ancient book suddenly floated up on its own. The pages of the main text that were originally firmly stuck together automatically opened.
The environment in the room began to change dramatically. In Avis's perception, everything was becoming indescribably new and vivid.
The yellowing of the pearl wood table legs faded, and the various materials on the shelves became exceptionally new. The color of the mosaic floor tiles became extremely bright, and the silver candlesticks faded from their original dullness and became dazzlingly bright.
As the center of the change, the dark green color on the book cover began to flow slowly, gradually staining the pages.
Dyed by the flowing dark green, the originally light silver high elf characters began to twist wildly and violently, like loaches falling into a frying pan.
A large number of dark green characters rolled madly, crawling away from their original positions, accompanied by irritating murmurs, wriggling and extending, forming a completely new and absurd content.
Avis tried to flip through it and found that there were three pages of text that could be turned.
Page 1: 'Evil minions walk the world, and foolish and short-sighted people conspire with them, bringing gems of enchanting purple and gorgeous, dreamy dust.'
Page 2: 'The merchants of the earth were greedy, the nobles of the earth were crazy about it, the evil trade became increasingly busy, and the closed ports fell into a dream.'
Page 3: 'The rational wizard came here to investigate, but reached a shady deal with him. His followers returned on a dark sailing ship, which was full of slaves from the earth.'
"What's the meaning?"
Avis was a little confused. He read it several times but still didn't understand its meaning.
But he had a feeling that as he stared at these strange words, the words themselves were also staring at him in an indescribable way.
In addition to unlocking part of the text, Avis also sensed that the Old Secret Scriptures had granted him three more spell-like abilities.
[Blood Clone], [Old Majesty], and [Distorted Seed]
Flesh and Blood Clone: Use the flesh and blood of the caster or other creatures to create a clone of the caster, with the clone's strength equal to half of the caster's. A maximum of two clones can exist at the same time.
The Majesty of the Past:
Any intelligent life that looks directly at the caster will feel an ancient pressure that matches the image in their minds.
The introduction of Seed of Distortion is much more complicated than the first two types of spells.
By means of an action that the recipient is watching, a spiritual guide is planted in the recipient's heart.
The mind's guidance gradually takes shape over time and as the number of contacts with the caster's information increases, and its growth rate is related to the strength and willpower of the recipient.
According to the will of the caster, the Seed of Distortion can be divided into two states: latent and activated.
While dormant, the seed is almost completely undetectable. When the subject is within three meters of the caster, the caster can silently read the subject's thoughts.
Once the seed is activated, the recipient will become a fanatical worshiper of the caster while maintaining a clear self-awareness, and will absolutely obey all the caster's instructions.
However, during this process, if the recipient's will is extremely strong and he has not been exposed to information related to the holder for a long time, there is a very small probability that he will be free from the influence of the seed and will be immune to such things forever.
The caster can cancel the formed seed at any time, and only one twisted seed can exist at a time.
Thanks to Liunianwanghan, Yueyiing, and Xiaojiudejiuwen for their monthly tickets.
