Very beautiful eyes
After following the same method and exorcising several cursed spirits, Feng Zaochue confirmed that the method used in the supermarket was indeed feasible.
"Fortunately, the original owner knew to save some money for himself." Feng Zaoche, who had a big bag in each hand, couldn't help but sigh, "Otherwise, I would have nothing to lose."
What he bought was nothing but various drawing tools sold in a large stationery store nearby.
Feng Zaoche had no plans to go back to his old job so soon, but now was not the time for him to officially start school, and he had plenty of free time, so he had to find something to kill time.
"Host, the statistics are out." System 920 popped up at the right time, "You have just exorcised a total of 7 fourth-level cursed spirits and 2 third-level cursed spirits!"
Although he had established connections with higher-ups, that was just an old relationship between his parents. The original owner did not have a deep understanding of the actual world of curses, so Feng Zaochue could not get much useful information. However, he was still able to judge the basic level of cursed spirits.
The only things he solved were the minor details, the kind that would annoy readers if they appeared too many times in the work.
"Hmm..." Feng Zaochetsu responded.
"Host, it's only the first day since you came here, and you're already able to exorcise cursed spirits. In other words, you've become a lowest-level sorcerer, right? Aren't you happy?" 920 was curious.
"This method is feasible. As long as we can find the vital point accurately, the mortality rate can reach 100%. But there is a very crucial point." Feng Zaoche analyzed seriously.
"What what?" 920 asked flatteringly.
"The skill's pre-swing is too long." Feng Zaoche said succinctly.
Not to mention that it takes time to pronounce the words he has decided on, the cost of thinking and trial and error is enough to drag him to death. The third and fourth level curse spirits he has encountered so far are not conscious, and the words they chant can perfectly expose their weaknesses, but in the future, when the level of the curse spirits is higher...
There have been so many works since ancient times, but there are not many examples of people dying because their skills were too long and they were killed by others before they could even start, but each one is very embarrassing.
"There are other methods, but I can't really explain them. It's up to the host to explore on his own..." 920 felt more and more guilty as he spoke, and even his voice dropped a lot.
Feng Zaoche comforted him casually, and his thoughts unknowingly drifted to deeper places.
As a cartoonist, his habit of constructing a work is to start by finalizing the general world view. Choosing the era, choosing the main scenes, and then the level of technology, whether superpowers exist, etc. are all very critical factors.
It is also linked to whether there are any fresh plots later, and can also ensure that the basic settings will not collapse to a certain extent.
The so-called "Creator" skill setting can hurt cursed spirits, which should be related to its origin or the negative emotions of people. When introducing the skill, 920 said "the power of the law" and "can be used to hurt the highest level of cursed spirits."
In other words, this power can be used for other purposes, not just in the battle against cursed spirits.
The way he uses it also needs to be changed. Now this method cannot be generally judged as bad, but the disadvantages are too obvious. Unless he meets a reliable companion who can help him raid the battlefield, he can try it again.
Feng Zaoche turned his pen around and roughly drew the appearance of most of the cursed spirits he encountered today.
He couldn't find any pattern in their appearance, but he could see that some cursed spirits' appearance was associated with the negative emotions that caused them to have. For example, cursed spirits that hated working people would often have broken office supplies on them.
This is a rule that can be exploited, but it is unlikely to be of much practical use.
He suddenly stopped writing, which attracted 920's attention. Feng Zaoche could sense that the eyes focused on him became more "lively".
"I detect that the host seems very happy..." 920 couldn't quite understand why the host who was in trouble could still have such emotions.
"It suddenly occurred to me that drawing these things is 'easier'." Feng Zaoche answered truthfully.
Although he is a cartoonist who does not have the habit of updating frequently, he must have worked very hard and without sleep during the two weeks when he promised to update more. The mental pressure he endured during that period is simply unimaginable, especially since he has a lot of idol baggage and does not want to show anyone a picture that is a little bit broken.
It just so happened that the villain in one of his previous works was a human with great wealth and a love for fancy clothes. He was one of the characters in one of his rookie works, and even his hair accessories were clearly written to be made up of 64 precious pearls strung together.
The painting was completed with great effort, and when a person dies, he exhales more than he breathes in.
After skimming over these tacit understandings unique to cartoonists, Feng Zaoche picked up his pen and wrote down two more words.
"Control", "Camp".
Even in youth romance comics, it is not all peaceful. Some are in love with one of the protagonists, while others are teachers who simply want to break them up.
The possibility of enemies existing in hot-blooded fighting comics...no need to think about it, it's 100%. Readers don't spend their time watching the good guys get beaten up, it's not a mainstream hobby.
There must be a faction here, such as a noble family or genius with a treasure... Apart from anything else, the senior executives of the Jujutsu High School who were bought into by his connections must first occupy the position of a villain.
But someone who can be bought with money... Feng Zaoche bravely judged based on his personal preferences that this person was not a big boss. After entering technical college, there might be a place where he would be needed to take sides.
For a so-called "creator" to lose the momentum, there is a natural prerequisite - to know the specific situation of the target very, very well, so that he can immediately judge what is impossible for him to do.
His method of attacking cursed spirits is to control their origins through words. For example, in the very beginning conflict between colleagues, the "negative emotions" of the cursed spirits were forcibly eliminated and replaced by him, so he was able to achieve the effect of instant kill.
It can also be said that he directly created the curse spirit.
If it falls on a human being, there is no such killing power. Getting injured and dying is a normal thing for humans. Even those with extremely strong combat power often cannot escape from getting injured.
Human intelligence is not that easy to obtain. Unlike low-level cursed spirits who sometimes talk about core conflicts, without a reliable source of intelligence, if Feng Zaoche wants to achieve the effect of the "instant" skill, it can only be achieved by attacking acquaintances.
Feng Zaoche: “…”
According to his habit, such skills would only be assigned to the kind of character who quietly controls the overall situation in the dark, and the character of the opponent must be very decisive, and there would be absolutely no hesitation when it comes to making a choice.
Goodbye, he is not that kind of person at all.
Feng Zaoche snapped the pen cap shut.
Suddenly, a message alert sounded. Feng Zaoche frowned and picked up the phone beside him.
[From Strange Number: After you have successfully entered the Jujutsu High School, it is not easy to deceive your teachers and classmates. If you don't want to be expelled, you know what to do. ]
Feng Zaoche: “…”
You can guess who sent the message just by guessing.
He must have known that Feng Zaochue had left him some money, and wanted to squeeze out even that last bit of money.
In other words, the original owner deliberately did not take out all the money. He knew that he could only see, and without the corresponding talent, he could not become a sorcerer. At most, he could join some auxiliary organizations.
Unfortunately, now that he is here, he certainly doesn't need anyone else to help him disguise himself or cover up anything.
He would be able to enter the School of Spells with good reason. After all, it was about the underlying mechanism of this world, and he had to learn everything he needed to.
But this person must be under his own control.
Relying on cheating to get the qualification to enter the school for training is undoubtedly a violation of the regulations. Not only will you most likely be expelled, but it will also easily leave a bad reputation, and you will have to work hard to redeem yourself later.
Kazehayatoru has no interest in the villain-turned-good guy route where he finds out he has his own reasons after the fact.
【From Kazehayato: Can I come visit you again? I'm afraid I can't explain clearly what I should do after entering school over the phone, so I want to ask you in person. Of course, I'll also bring the balance. 】
Feng Zaoche's polite and humble words undoubtedly greatly pleased the other party, and after a moment, he got a "yes" response.
Attached later is the time, which is tomorrow morning. Feng already knows the location clearly and has memorized how to get there.
"Host, are you going to try to use your skills on someone right now? You haven't figured out the relevant methods yet..." Would it be bad to just put yourself on the shelf? 920 couldn't help but worry.
"It's night time now. The original owner has no acquaintances and has been living on the remaining assets at home. But the skill you gave her is not limited to immunity to herself, right?" Feng Zaoche thought about it and decided that this was the only way.
Ignoring or rejecting the other person may draw attention to yourself, thus causing unnecessary trouble, and being innocent is guilty of possessing a treasure.
920 did not deny this statement.
There are things that he absolutely cannot do.
Feng Zaoche paused and tentatively said to himself, "I was too anxious so I decided to draw a comic strip to relieve my anxiety, but the pictures I drew ended up with a weird human body structure, a perspective that would make even a dog shake its head, and a nonsensical storyboard that could span the universe."
The next second, he felt as if his brain was taken over by something. He uncontrollably pulled out a piece of white paper, picked up a pen and began to draft.
Fuzaochetsu is a person who has high quality requirements for his works. Even if he does something casually, he will revise it to perfection even if he doesn't send it out.
For the first time, he realized that the fact that both he and the original owner had incredibly good eyesight was not a good thing, and his mood was as devastated as the lines that appeared in his pen.
At a glance, you can pick out several mistakes that he would make when he was a novice, as well as many meaningless close-ups that he took for granted.
After memorizing the mistakes, Feng Zaoche was temporarily able to confirm three points. One was that he could use it on himself, two was that he could activate it silently - he had tried it before against cursed spirits but it didn't work, and three was that he was injured. When he "realized" this, the degree of control deepened.
Then Feng Zaoche used the same words to activate the skill on himself again. The effect was still there, but it was much weaker than before.
He pinched his brows imperceptibly, crumpled up the two wasted pieces of paper and threw them into the trash can, then fell asleep while thinking about a solution.
Random response, clichés...
…
Thanks to the alarm clock, Feng Zaoche woke up on time, packed up and went out.
He arrived ten minutes early and couldn't find any major faults.
Just as he was searching his memory for useful information that might be useful, a young man dressed in black came towards him.
The person who appeared here must be someone related to the world of sorcery. Feng Zaoche wanted to move away without thinking, but the other party refused to let him go and took advantage of his height advantage to deliberately come over and bump into him.
The force was strong enough to make him stagger. Feng Zaoche frowned and met a pair of jewel-like, clear blue eyes.
Very nice eyes.
But no one saw him in the light of reality.
