Chapter 307: "Dignity"

Chapter 307 "Dignity" 19 Scheer Street, Boulevard District, basement. Although Mr. K's face was completely hidden by the huge hood, Lumian still felt appreciation and recognition in his eyes. Mr. K stood behind the red armchair and pointed at the narrow wooden table by the wall. "You can choose for yourself. According to the standards of each church, they are all '2' level seals. They have distinct characteristics but have quite dangerous negative effects. However, there are ways to solve them and they can be used to a certain extent." Following Mr. K's raised right hand, Lumian saw three containers placed on the narrow wooden table: One is an exquisite wooden box inlaid with rubies, emeralds, agates and other things, a needle syringe that seems to be made of rubber, and a wide-mouthed bottle filled with a dreamy green liquid with a golden object at the bottom. Mr. K walked to the narrow wooden table, picked up the wooden box decorated with many gems, and opened it. There was a thin, soft leather mask, and as Mr. K lifted it up to display it, it revealed an exaggerated face outlined in red, yellow and white oil paint. For some reason, Lumian's mood became low as soon as he saw that face, and a little sadness arose in his heart.

"It's called the 'clown mask'." Mr. K introduced it in a hoarse voice, "After putting it on, you can make a substitute by cutting paper figures, you can ignite flammable objects within 50 meters around you and jump between flames, you can transfer wounds to your body, turning fatal injuries into minor injuries, but a wound can only be transferred once. “It will also merge with your face and change your appearance, which is beyond your control, but will give you strong expression control and a keen premonition for a short period of time. “It needs to be placed in a container of high value, otherwise it will continue to bring frustration, pain, and sadness to the people around it, causing those affected to gradually become mentally abnormal until they collapse. For extraordinary people, this often means losing control. "For this reason, you should never wear it for more than ten minutes at a time, and you should take it to a comedy show once a week, or it will try to replace you and become your face while you're wearing it." Transfer the wound... This seal is from the "Fortune Teller" path, corresponding to the sequence of Miss Liya in the eighth game, or a little higher? Lumian quickly made a judgment based on his own experience. He felt that the "clown mask" was indeed suitable for him, and the "arsonist" combined with the flame jump could significantly enhance his strength. He also needs to change his appearance, but the problem is that he can only wear it for ten minutes. There is no essential difference between this and the "secret peeping glasses", it's just relatively more convenient. In addition, paper substitutes and wound transfer can effectively enhance his survivability, but whether it is dealing with "zombies", "ghosts", "demons", or "apostles of desire", these abilities lack specificity. The impact on emotions is something Lumian is very wary of at the moment. Although his psychological problems have been initially cured, the flame of pain can never be truly extinguished and it still lurks in the depths of his heart. If this is detonated by an emotional breakdown, Thermipoulos will surely be grinning from ear to ear. While Lumian was thinking, Mr. K put the "clown mask" back into the exquisite wooden box and picked up the syringe consisting of a rubber hose, a glass syringe and a sharp needle. At this time, the syringe was quietly filled with a tube of bright red liquid, just like blood just drawn from the human body. Mr. K shook the syringe gently and said: "It's called 'Source Blood'. Once it's injected into your body, it will allow you to completely control your own flesh and blood for a short period of time. You no longer need to deliberately maintain your human form. This way, you have no vital points and can wrap around the target, corrode his body, enter his flesh and blood, and kill him from the inside. “At the same time, you can also turn into your own shadow and merge with the surrounding shadows to secretly track the enemy and evade conventional detection. “Each injection will bring you closer to our Lord, and closer to the original and most ancient form of mankind. This is something that other people and creatures cannot bear. Their bodies will gradually collapse as the number of injections increases, and they will never be able to recover their original form. Their minds will be shrouded in shadows, longing for flesh and blood, but also falling into darkness, until they become irrational monsters. But we don’t have to worry. As long as we have devout faith in our Lord and always remember to pray to Him, there will be no major problems with our bodies and minds. "I've had injections several times before, and I'm fine now, right?" I don’t think you’re normal… The feature of corroding flesh and blood seems to be useful against “zombies”… Lumian was not convinced at all. Moreover, he was not at all pious to the "true creator". He usually used psychological suggestion to seal the memory of His name and never prayed. "If you don't inject it, but just carry it with you, it will have no other effect except making you crave flesh and blood." Mr. K put down the "source blood" syringe and reached out to press on the wide-mouthed bottle filled with green liquid.

Then, he reached his right hand, which was pale and looked a little sick, into the bottle and fished out a gold brooch carved into a gorse flower from the green liquid that smelled of wine: “It’s called ‘respectability’. "After wearing it, you can keenly discover the target's weaknesses, and can give him a symbolic item to complete the 'bribe', which will significantly weaken his attack, defense or control against you within a certain period of time. "In addition, you can also 'distort' the target's language, actions, and intentions, and 'distort' the meaning of certain actions of yourself or others, to create an environment that is beneficial to yourself to a certain extent." Use "bribe" to weaken the target's attack, defense or control... This ability is very universal, whether it is against "zombies", "demons", or other Beyonders, it can be used... The "distortion" at the back, if used well, can be very useful... Lumian was refreshed and felt that this was what he wanted. The next step is to see whether the negative impact can be tolerated. Mr. K continued: "It must be placed in strong liquor with a concentration of more than 45 degrees at ordinary times, otherwise it will occasionally attract arrests, either from official Beyonders or other forces. "Don't wear it for more than a quarter of an hour. After an hour, you will become disgusting and disgusting. It's best not to go out and wait patiently until the negative effects disappear." As a "hunter", how can I not be disgusted and despised? It is normal for regular customers of the old tavern to carry two or three bottles of strong liquor with them... Sometimes, you can even use this feature of attracting surrounding forces to catch you to "fish". It is a perfect part of some traps... Lumian quickly made a decision and spoke firmly: "I want 'respectable'." The only question now is whether this formed seal can be combined with the "Shadow Branch" to create a magical item with characteristics of both. Mr. K did not try to persuade her and fully respected her personal wishes. He dropped the "respectable" brooch back into the liquor in the flask, put the lid on, and threw it to Lumian. Lumian quickly caught it and complained to himself: “What if I’m not good enough to catch it and the bottle breaks? "You look at me, I look at you, and then we each run away before the official Beyonders come to hunt us down?" Lumian held the bottle of what looked like absinthe and said deliberately: "I have something to report." He briefly recounted the story of the "werewolf" and said at the end: "Hasn't the Rose School been hit repeatedly? Why is it still so arrogant? I heard that they still believe in the evil god, the Mother Tree of Desire." Mr. K's gaze towards Lumian suddenly turned cold, and his voice had a metallic, oppressive feel: “The followers of the evil god are indeed becoming more and more outrageous. "Since some gods cannot bear such a heavy responsibility, we will help them share the burden." Lumian clearly sensed that Mr. K's anger was ignited by him, because his "Arsonist" potion showed some signs of digestion. He said goodbye to Mr. K, turned and walked out of the basement, and closed his eyes in the corridor. With the help of this experiment, combined with the fire in his heart when he was promoted to "Arsonist", the words said by Franka, the various situations in the market area he had observed before, and the performance of Lapus and the people from the southern continent, he summarized his first "Arsonist" role-playing rules: "'Arsonists' set fire not only to material things, but also to the mind and society." ………… Market area, Golden Rooster Hotel, room 207. Lumian looked at the bottle of green liquor and thought about buying a few military flasks to replace it, so that it wouldn't be accidentally broken during the fight. At the same time, he made the final decision:

Use the Lucky Guy Extraordinary trait and the Shadow Branch to craft a magical item. He felt that the ability of "Dignity" was not compatible with the "Shadow Branches", and that the negative impact of the ability itself could be tolerated, and the effect of the seal was also good, so it could be used alone. Without further hesitation, Lumian began writing letters, asking the "Magician" lady to help find a "craftsman" at the demigod level. Then he went to the safe house on White Coat Street, summoned a messenger, and sent the Shadow Branch, Lucky Man, and otherworldly traits along with the letter to the holder of the Major Arcana card. Not long after, Lumian saw the "puppet" messenger appear above the desk and drop a thick stack of papers. boom! The table made a sound as if it was hit by something heavy. When Lumian stood up, he found a reply letter on top of the stack of papers: "No problem. I'll help you make the contact. It will take some time, as will the production of the items. If you have no objection, I'll add the condition that the final product must be easy to carry. "Also, from my nighttime observation of the sky, I feel that you are about to digest the Arsonist potion and will be able to receive new fateful gifts. These are the data on some creatures in the spirit world. You can study them in advance and see which ones to sign contracts with and borrow abilities from." The "magician" lady can also tell astrology? The results are so accurate... Lumian looked at the thick stack of papers and felt a little dizzy. After summarizing his first set of rules for playing the role of "arsonist", he knew that he was not far from having a preliminary understanding of it. (End of this chapter)
