Just a few days into December, a cold wave came unexpectedly. The snowfall and freezing weather with temperatures reaching minus 20 degrees turned Xiacheng into a capital of ice and snow.
The north wind is whistling outside the window, but inside a library of Zhixing College, it is as warm as spring. In the specially opened studio, the lights are dim, and the projection structure spread out in layers on the huge ring-shaped operating table brings the excitement to the faces of the young men and women around.
It was painted with a layer of colorful paint and looked eccentric.
The operating table is indeed large, but with thirty or fifty people gathered around it, there are still layers of internal and external layers.
Those on the inner layer next to the operating table naturally have a higher status. They are having heated discussions, forming a buzzing chorus. As for the outer layer, some people stand on tiptoes and stare, while others have nothing to do with themselves.
We just started chatting.
Of course, there is another kind of person who is incompatible with the current environment. Ronan is like this. He leans in the corner against the wall, turns on the imitation paper soft screen, and scribbles on it. He has almost no sense of existence, and few people pay attention to him.
what are you doing.
Ronan was so happy. He only knew two or three people in this room. Xue Lei, who was the closest to him, was just outside the workbench, watching the fun from a high position with his tall and strong body.
This powerful friend who could easily kill a liger breathed very softly and his heartbeat rate dropped to less than 20 beats per minute. However, the powerful force of Qi and blood surged and contracted in his blood vessels, muscles and fascia.
, forming a slight oscillation that is close to the infrasonic range, spreading at a level that ordinary people cannot perceive.
The deep and heavy rhythm, if described in terms of timbre, is probably like the sound of a yellow bell and a bell, with the bells and drums ringing in unison. Among the members of the club, it can be said to be unique.
This is a difference at the level of life.
At a level closer to reality, speech sounds, low laughter, and breathing sounds are scattered and scattered, and the peaks and valleys of the sound waves rush or merge, resulting in complex deformations. If the semantic factors are also calculated, it will undoubtedly smear out a scene without any aesthetic feeling.
scene.
As a "recorder", Ronan couldn't help but shake his head. His hands kept sketching out more and more complex line structures.
Seeing that the newly created page was no longer in shape, a more directional sound wave was thrown into Ronan's ear: "Brother Nan..."
The word "Brother" is a bit vague, like a mixture of "He" and "De", which is the alienation of the transition from "Nanzi" to "Nange".
When he is much older in age and grade, it is a bit difficult for a young man like Tian Qi to take the initiative to change his title and claim the title of younger brother, but this is also Tian Qi's own decision.
Tian Qi, whose name is the same as Gong Qi, is just a young man in heat who hopes to use mysticism to pick up girls. Even if he has all kinds of problems, he is much cuter than the deputy secretary-general.
At this time, he leaned close to Ronan's ear and whispered: "Brother Nan, points will be recorded for the performance of group activities..."
That's right, the place where Ronan is now is the collective activity place of the "Mystery Deconstruction Group" of the Occult Research Society. As a member of the Order Club, the reason why he participated in this activity is because he has been fighting for several months.
After the end, the Occult Research Society finally defeated the Construction Society and obtained ownership of the Order Club's only asset, the North Shore Gear.
Since the original venue of the Occult Science Research Club has not yet expired, it will take a certain amount of time to relocate and purchase various equipment. The relocation of the club has not yet begun. However, as the "left-behind staff" of the Order Club, according to the school, "not one person can be left behind."
In line with the principles, he and Xue Lei merged into the Occult Research Society and started a new club career.
Today is the second group activity for Ronan and Xue Lei after they merged into the club. The first time the relevant person in charge even made some introductions to them, this time they just got to do what they were supposed to do.
The reason for this semi-forgotten state is of course that Ronan is not very gregarious. But the former president Du Yong and Empress Du left the house, and the new president Blood Peony Tang Yi patted her butt and went to the wilderness with her tutor to do projects, and the club
Perhaps the more important factor is that the group is leaderless in a short period of time and each has its own agenda.
Ronan actually heard a certain sissy wailing many times: If you want to be the boss, why did you take my position in the first place?
In any case, Ronan had to adapt to a new environment, and Tian Qi's welcome saved him a lot of effort. It was precisely because of Tian Qi's hard recommendation that Ronan and Xue Lei did not get into trouble here.
I was completely isolated from the beginning, and I could at least have a few casual acquaintances.
Because of this, and of course for Tian Si's sake, Ronan was relatively gentle towards Tian Qi and didn't mind chatting with him more.
"The group topic is the restoration of the 'Eleusis Mysteries'. I'm actually quite interested in these things, but I don't know anything about them and I need to collect information."
Ronan was willing to respond, so Tian Qi breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly sat next to him, laughing at himself: "Who knows? This is an old antique from the 19th century BC. The core stage of the legendary ancient Greek era is already a secret.
It’s a secret. We’re looking at the 22nd century. After more than four thousand years, what’s left? Everyone pretends to understand.”
"It's okay. Some people's ideas are quite interesting."
Ronan didn't say polite words. After actually entering the Occult Research Club, he was a little impressed. In this club, except for the rich second generation who took drugs and had fun, various activities were carried out.
Still quite organized and in-depth.
For example, the "Secret Ritual Deconstruction Group" that Ronan participated in conducted research on the secret rituals in the myths of ancient civilizations, and tried to deconstruct them using more modern occult concepts.
It sounds ridiculous that gods come to the world to bless these things. But if we change these concepts and describe them as the interaction between spirit and matter, the picture of the interference of spiritual power, will it suddenly be linked to extraordinary power?
?
Not only is the idea interesting, but some of the magic circle configurations and the like also look very professional. With Ronan's two-knife attainment in mysticism, there really isn't anything wrong with it.
Tian Qi wanted to express his concern: "Brother Nan, after the winter vacation, we have to assign special laboratories, and the credit score is very important..."
Ronan smiled: "In the assignment handed in today, I have participated in the construction of the initial 'Star of David' structure, and two suggestions have been adopted. 0.5 credits of this semester have been completed."
Although I found a friend from the association to cheat...
"Hey, that's right." Tian Qi suddenly realized. He didn't expect "cheating". In his opinion, with the mystical attainments of the former president Du Yong, everyone in Aurora Cloud City was still counting on Ronan.
To clear up the confusion, one can imagine how good Ronan is at this.
Just as he was about to flatter me, he heard Ronan say: "It's time to go to Gear after the winter vacation. Whether there is a specialized laboratory there is not up to anyone else."
"Uh..." Tian Qi instinctively shrank his neck.
Tian Qi's first impression of Ronan was relatively average, but as the familiarity deepened, especially after walking in the Aurora Cloud that day, his psychological position was completely overturned. He was playing soy sauce that day, but he also
See Ronan’s strong circle of friends and his central position in the circle of friends.
Let’s not talk about Du Yong. The top dandies Xie Junping and Hu Huaying are just followers in front of Ronan, and his cousin Tian Si, who he has always regarded as his biggest support in the academy, just because of Ronan’s one or two words, directly
I had a falling out with Chen Weican, the vice chairman of the student union of my department.
If such a "powerful" person really wants to confront the Occult Research Society, no matter the outcome, it will be a fight between gods. He, a mortal, may not even be qualified to stand in line and cheer.
Thinking of the possible conflicts that might occur in the future, Tian Qi was a little stunned for a moment. Ronan ignored him. When he was chatting before, most of his energy was still focused on collecting and analyzing sounds, and he kept scribbling on the paper-like soft screen interface.
Draw and record your thoughts.
Tian Qi was silent for a long time and felt a little embarrassed. He subconsciously glanced upward twice. When he saw the drawing interface, his eyes became a little divergent:
Is it because he has a low IQ? Why can't he see the order in this at all? Those chaotic lines and random symbols are simply a great mockery of human rationality.
Ronan knew that Tian Qi was dizzy, but he had no intention of explaining. No matter whether he was chatting or silent, he never forgot where to put his efforts.
Ever since Ronan established the basic principle of "observation and waiting" for the cloud world and Gong Qi, he gradually concentrated his mind and did more practical things while maintaining observation.
At first, he was worried that if he wasn't careful, Gong Qi would suddenly make a breakthrough and gain insight into the reality of the cloud world, but he could only watch helplessly, unable to do anything.
But as time went by, his uneasy thoughts gradually settled, and his eyes towards the cloud world became more and more calm. However, the target of his observation became bored and anxious in the rush and pretentiousness day after day, especially when he was alone.
By then, violent outbursts of rage had already occurred, and they were becoming more and more frequent.
Ronan was like watching a trapped animal that fell into a trap. Even though he was not injured, he could only circle in a small space, struggling in front of insurmountable obstacles, until the toxins of negative emotions penetrated layer by layer, corroding rationality and will.
.
Of course, Gong Qi's negative emotions also come back and forth. In any case, he is one of the top people in the world. He knows how to regulate his emotions, restore rationality, and maintain his condition.
This kind of repetition sometimes makes Ronan feel frustrated that all his efforts have been wasted.
But it was this kind of repetition that forced Ronan to get used to it, forced him to hone his patience, and made him gradually understand that the twists and turns of the development of events are the norm. He even learned some adjustment methods from Gong Qi, and also understood how to grasp the situation.
Use your own rhythm and a solid and orderly attitude to gradually remove the burrs in your heart and remove the emotional noise that may affect your judgment.
More than ten days passed in a blink of an eye, and Ronan began to feel that his condition was getting better and better. He could not only work steadily and practice steadily, but also always maintain sensitivity and vigilance to the observation target.
Determined and sharp, like a quenched sword, it is tough and sharp, but it is kept in a sheath. It does not forget to take care of it carefully, just waiting for the moment of sacrifice.
"hiss."
The breath exhaled from Ronan's mouth and nose seemed to carry the roar of a golden blade splitting the wind, which was a different image from all the surrounding creatures.
The moment Ronan heard the wonderful imagery from his own aura, the world composed of various intertwined sound waves seemed to be cut down by a sharp blade, separated from the knots, and suddenly became transparent.
