Mechanical Alchemist Chapter 10: Extraordinary items harvested
"Dual talents? What the **** is this?"
Su Lun lacks a basic understanding of the world, so even if he sees this extra talent, he doesn't know what its use is.
Furthermore, he found that his mental power value had also changed from "26" to "18".
The mental strength is reduced by 8 points, and the previous feeling of whispering in the ears has completely disappeared.
Su Lun speculated in his mind: "The principle of this altar is to sacrifice items and exchange them for equal value to obtain some extraordinary talent. Before, it was an eye for an eye. Now the mental power has become less. Could it be...the original owner's The soul that was incomplete in the body was completely sacrificed, and then gained a new talent?"
He didn't dwell too much on this issue, since there was no way to prove it anyway.
But at this time, Su Lun had another strange idea in his mind: If he was not a time traveler, what kind of sacrifice would a normal person use to obtain this talent, commit suicide on the altar, and then sacrifice his soul?
.......
"What is the use of [Talent S-004-Death Reaper]?"
After all, this is not a game, and there are no instructions for using skills.
Su Lun looked at it for a moment, but still had no clue at all, and there was no change in his body.
He thought for a while, didn't dwell on it anymore, and continued to test the abilities gained by his eyes.
In a blink of an eye, he turned his attention to several stone sculptures, and a string of words appeared on them.
[Broken stone sculpture]
Detailed explanation: Stone sculptures that have lost their extraordinary power have no observational significance;
This time, Su Lun probably knew the use of this talent, "Isn't this the 'identification technique' in the game..."
As far as the increase in combat effectiveness of this talent is concerned...not to mention that the increase is not large, it can be said to be completely useless.
This can basically be positioned as an auxiliary function.
At least, in a real fight, it's not at the same level as Baldhead's [steel skeleton] before.
"Maybe I don't understand the purpose of this 'Eye of Omniscient', and maybe I still have untapped abilities. Such a complicated awakening ritual shouldn't be that simple..."
Su Lun looked at it, not too disappointed.
At least, his eyesight has improved, and his marksmanship seems to be more accurate.
At this time, he suddenly thought of something, walked down from the altar, took out the rune doll that Pestoya had given him before, and examined it.
Looking at it, I found that this is a good baby.
[Cursed Object: Rune Puppet]
Quality: Gold
Description: It doesn’t like to be manipulated and likes to control humans;
Curse characteristics: within ten meters, indiscriminate mental control of target creatures with a spirit lower than 15, hypnosis, body confusion, madness...
Detailed explanation: Inauguration materials for the alchemist’s mysterious system ‘Puppet Master’; after taking office, skills and agility attributes will be greatly improved, and exclusive inheritance skills will be learned.
Evaluation: The physical fit is 93%. This is already a very good quality career advancement material.
If it weren't for this "Eye of Omniscient", Su Lun would not have expected that any toy doll that he used as a "souvenir" could be so powerful.
"Body confusion... This seems to be one of Pestoya's extraordinary abilities?"
He looked at the detailed introduction of the doll and immediately thought of the scene where he was eating uncontrollably with his hands and feet in the banquet hall.
It directly deprives you of control over your body. This ability is really evil.
"It's still indiscriminate mind control..."
Su Lun looked at it with a stern expression. If his mental strength were not stronger than ordinary people, this thing would probably make him go crazy immediately if he had this thing next to him.
Hmm... It's probably equivalent to carrying a dangerous "nuclear radioactive toy" with you.
At this time, he also saw a new word in the detailed explanation - employment materials.
He thought about how the bald Ivan used a magic circle to transform into a metal-scaled form. Could it be some kind of special means to advance his career?
Su Lun has a lot of strange knowledge in his head, and he probably guesses that this so-called "employment" is similar to job transfer in the game.
"Pestoya's profession should be 'Puppet Master'...but how to get a job?"
Su Lun sighed slightly as countless question marks popped up in his mind.
His understanding of the world is too limited and he lacks a lot of necessary common sense.
But now it seems that having such an "eye of all knowledge" ability is quite practical. At least it allows him to see these magical items without being completely confused.
...........
Suellen put the puppet back into the wooden box.
To his surprise, upon closer inspection, he found that the box containing the rune puppet was also a treasure.
[Level II Rune Seal Wooden Box]
Detailed explanation: A special alchemy box that can block fluctuations in mental power; if you look carefully, you will find some words engraved on it.
Su Lun thought that the patterns on this box were a bit special before. Now that he saw this prompt and took a closer look, he was surprised to find that the patterns were actually densely packed with small characters. It was a book called "Introduction to Making Puppet Makers". 》.
"Could it be that Pestoya thought that I was mentally strong and suitable to be a puppet master, so she not only gave me 'job materials', but also a professional skills book?"
Su Lun suddenly thought of the cute little girl with blond hair and blue eyes, and there was always a lingering regret in her heart.
What a pity...
He also did not forget to agree to the girl's promise to help her ask why her parents wanted to burn her to death.
But this manor has been abandoned for at least hundreds of years, and his parents are probably gone long ago.
This "promise" may never be fulfilled.
Then, when he looked again, he saw that the butterfly brooch pinned to his chest by the little girl was also an extraordinary item.
[Pestoia’s Brooch]
Focus +10
Detailed explanation: A brooch with strong resentment. An exquisite alchemical product, it allows the wearer to study, cast spells, work... and focus more. But if worn for a long time, resentment will make people's temperament become perverse and violent.
(Note: Your extraordinary ability prevents you from detecting or understanding things that are beyond your cognitive level, so after careful perception, you also saw a series of 'unknown???'...)
Su Lun looked at the brooch and thought it was a casual gift from the little girl.
Unexpectedly, when he saw the "???" note on the back of the brooch, a series of question marks appeared in his heart.
A confusing and mysterious feeling immediately hit me.
There is something hidden in this brooch that I can’t understand yet?
What exactly is it that makes the "Eye of Omniscient" decide that it can't even understand... Is it like explaining the concepts of three-dimensional and four-dimensional space to a two-dimensional creature. It can hear and see, but it just can't understand. ?
Things that even a time traveler like myself cannot understand are certainly not simple...
"Is there some secret hidden in this brooch?"
Su Lun instinctively felt something was wrong.
At this time, the question that troubled Su Lun came to mind again: Why did Pestoya's parents burn her to death?
Maybe...she has some kind of problem herself?
In this world with extraordinary abilities, who knows what kind of strange existence there will be.
If there was no [Eye of Omniscient], perhaps Suellen would not have noticed anything wrong with the brooch.
But now that he has discovered it, he feels more wary.
But Su Lun then thought about it, Pestoya is the big BOSS in this manor, even if there is doubt, it is best not to stay here.
Thinking about it, he decided to leave here first.
