Perhaps because of his thin skin, this guy ran away after saying this, but stuffed something into his hand.
Rhodes opened his hand and saw that it was a piece of paper that read:
On the third day of the Frost Moon, on the banks of the Nasai River, at dusk.
What the hell.
Rhodes didn't have the habit of dating men, so he crumpled the note into a ball and threw it away.
He is very worried now.
Although in theory, becoming a "special student" is a good thing, it means that he is one step closer to the value of the "five divisions".
But I always felt a little uneasy in my heart, as if I had overlooked something.
We still don’t know what the case is. The investigation on Firehammer Street was a disaster, and his mistake made his situation even more unfavorable.
The only reassuring thing is that Inspector General Lauren seems to be on his side, and I don’t know if he can withstand it.
Rhodes carefully recalled every word he said when he got along with Lauren, and added two more people.
Lauren's teacher is Black Bear, and her blue and white girl is Qingyu.
These three people are his current backers.
However, these three backers are not very stable, and the interest link between him and them is very loose, and they may be abandoned at any time.
We have to find ways to deepen the connection.
Rhodes thought.
Black Bear and Lauren are both men. I don’t know the Banana Magic Skill. The key point is Qingyu.
If he can find a way to have a more in-depth communication with her, he and his backer will have a basis of interest and will not be easily thrown away.
However, although Rhodes is convinced that his unique skills are unrivaled, he is now completely broke. The identity gap between him and Miss Blue and White is too large, and their overlap is very small. It is not an easy task to succeed.
The safest way is to improve your own strength.
As long as his value is high enough, even if he is finally found to be the murderer, he may be let go.
But the problem now is that he needs more souls to become stronger.
To plunder souls in a country where "soul-devouring" is taboo is undoubtedly to dance on the edge of a knife.
What worries Rhodes the most is the countdown on the obelisk.
The flashing blood-red text seemed to indicate an unknown future.
What happens when the two sunsets end?
What does "invasion" mean?
What is "Nightmare"?
These questions have always been lurking in the depths of his mind, arousing tremors in his soul when his thoughts pass by.
Rhodes once heard that the oldest human emotion is fear, and the oldest fear is the fear of the unknown. Now he even regrets deciphering the words on the obelisk.
But burying your head in the sand won't solve the problem.
Mr. Lu Xun once said that the best way to eliminate fear is to face it!
Inexplicable courage suddenly rose in his heart, and Rhodes quickly ran towards the dormitory, determined in his heart to make all preparations as much as possible during the last two sunsets.
There were only a few people I met along the way, the lights in the common room became dim, and the huge clock on the roof of the dormitory showed that it was now a quarter past three o'clock in the evening.
Rhodes did a mental calculation and found that it was 10:40 pm.
It's already very late.
Rhodes took three steps at a time, ran up to the third floor, took out the key, and opened his door.
The moment he opened the door, Rhodes saw a blond girl wearing a beige dress and long leather boots lying on his bed, sleeping soundly.
It's Kashan.
Rhodes poked her awake.
"You are finally back. I fell asleep waiting for you."
With a sleepy look on her face, the girl sat up and stretched, fully displaying her barren breasts.
"These are the notes for the afternoon meeting. The content is very important. Please review it quickly."
She took out a red-covered book and placed it on the table.
Judging from Juanxiu's handwriting, it should be her notebook.
"This is the course selection schedule for the afternoon, and you are the only one in the group who has not chosen it."
"At least three, and at most five, you have to take the exam at the end of the semester. Points will be deducted if you fail. Don't choose randomly. There is no need to choose a course like "The Rise and Fall of Humankind" unless you plan to go to archaeology, and Professor Binns' "
"Geography" is very important. Knights are highly mobile combat troops..."
She took out a large form and talked nonstop.
In order to return to the dreamland as soon as possible, Rhodes basically chose the courses according to her recommendations, except "Ancient Chinese".
This is a must for him.
Kashan did not object too much: "Well... linguistics is also relatively important. When we explore many ruins, we can get a lot of useful information from the remaining texts..."
Rhodes stared at her, hoping that she would leave on her own initiative.
But Kashan glared at him: "What are you doing? I told you, having children is something that happens in the future."
She took out another bag and put it on the table.
"This is the personal supplies distributed this week."
"This is spiritual tree dew, which can calm the mind and restore abnormal mental states. If you feel uncomfortable when practicing spiritual energy, use it immediately, orally, one drop at a time."
"This is elf grass juice, which can greatly concentrate your spirit, make your soul more sensitive, and make it easier to awaken spiritual energy."
"This is poisonous violet juice, used for analgesia. I heard that you boys will be very painful during the egg changing period. You can use it."
There are seven kinds of things on the table, and the portions are very small.
After Kashan finished the introduction, she said: "You have a ninth-level salary. You only have so much, but as long as you work hard, you will be promoted soon. I lent you this package. If you get a salary increase in the future, you will have to double it."
Give it back to me."
She stood up and shook her long blond hair.
"I'm leaving. I'll have the rest tomorrow. You can have a good sleep."
The girl walked out of the room briskly.
"Good night, Mr. Special Student."
She pursed her lips and smiled, closing the door for him.
——
In the dim dormitory, Rhodes stayed where he was.
His eyes were fixed on a red paper bag.
This is "red powder".
According to Kashan, it can increase the activity of the soul in a short period of time and enhance the output and release of psychic energy, but continuous use will have side effects.
For novices, its function is to greatly speed up the proficiency of mastering psychic powers.
However, as a foreigner with extraordinary knowledge, Rhodes keenly discovered that isn't this equivalent to stimulants?
If I take a stimulant injection during combat, wouldn’t it be easy to break through the limits?
There are also supplies such as elf grass juice. If I use them when a crisis comes, won’t it give me a better chance of winning?
Rhodes walked around excitedly, as if he had discovered a new world.
Suddenly, another idea popped up.
"Can I bring outside things into my dream?"
Rhodes' heart beat wildly for a moment.
He immediately took out the "Raven" Lauren gave him from his arms.
He has already seen the power of this "crow-style spirit gun". It showed its power in Firehammer Street and killed six enemies and a water tower in a row.
Rhodes raised the gun and saw its spiritual pressure meter behind the barrel.
As the name suggests, the spiritual pressure meter is a scale for testing spiritual energy pressure. Its full scale is forty. When the spiritual energy input by Rhodes reaches forty, the "Raven" will fire.
In the test just now, his highest psychic intensity was 81 moments, and his maximum psychic output was 21.
In other words, it takes an average of two seconds for him to fire a shot, and an average of four seconds for his spiritual power to reach its strongest state.
What if you take "red powder"?
Can he achieve one shot per second?
Thinking of its huge power, Rhodes almost laughed out loud.
What kind of monster can endure this unprecedented speed of masturbation?
Invasion is not scary at all!
But there is a premise. How can he bring the pistol into the dream?
So.
All night, Rhodes was tossing about this matter.
He repeatedly traveled back and forth between the dream world and the material world, trying various methods.
This was the first time that Rhodes studied dreams in detail without being disturbed. The results were remarkable and a large amount of very useful information was obtained.
He finally figured out the principle of entering and leaving dreams - as long as his spirit is in a highly calm state, he will enter the dream.
The lightning symbol only forces his spirit to enter this state instantly, not the key to the dream.
And when his body is disturbed, his spirit will exit this state, and he will be forced to leave the dream.
A large piece of fog shrouding his heart dissipated, and Rhodes finally figured out the reason why he had entered the dreamland inexplicably before. His breathing became smoother, and his mood became much brighter.
But what really made him ecstatic was that he found a way to bring objects into dreams.
——As long as you hold an object with your hands before entering the dream, you can bring it into the dream.
Similarly, they will also be brought out of dreams in this way.
Rhodes used this method to successfully bring important materials such as "red powder" and "elf grass juice" into the dream.
But there was a problem with the "Raven".
This crow-style spiritual gun is at least half a meter long, and the butt alone can occupy most of his hand.
Unless you are a giant, it is impossible to hold the entire gun with the palm of your hand.
Fortunately, Rhodes quickly discovered that the "Raven" can be disassembled.
Without hesitation, Rhodes quickly dismantled it into parts with the boy's excellent engineering experience.
But when he put it back together, something unexpected happened.
Rhodes looked at the dozen or so extra parts on the table and fell into deep thought.
Fortunately, I tested them first and didn't bring them into the dream rashly... Rhodes exhaled and rubbed his forehead. He felt mentally exhausted to the limit. Frequent entering and exiting the dream also took a lot of energy from him. What he experienced this day
There are too many.
Get some sleep first. Only when you have enough energy can you face the crisis better.
With his thoughts settled, Rhodes fell on the pillow and instantly fell into a sweet, dreamless sleep.
