Chapter 1079 "The Knowledgeable"
"3: Every three minutes, this mask draws the wearer's life force;
"After the health of this mask is reduced to a certain limit, it will draw life force from creatures within five kilometers of the surrounding area to replenish itself;
"The rate at which the health of this mask decreases depends on the frequency of use, if left all the time, it can last up to seven days, and if it is used frequently and cannot replenish the health force from the wearer, it can only last for three quarters of an hour;
"This mask has the characteristics of being alive, and even when used, it must be closely watched, otherwise it will attack the wearer and his companions;
"This mask longs for a complete body, and it will bewitch the wearer and those around him to gradually replace the body with a mechanical creation;
"Those who are bewitched by it will not be drawn by it, nor will they be attacked by it.
"4: The sealing method is to put it to sleep and replenish its vitality at regular intervals, depending on the use of it;
"It can be persuaded."
A seal that can be persuaded and has the characteristics of living? After listening to Franka's relay, Lumian stretched out his right hand to the "Mysterious Face" she was holding.
During this process, he had already stimulated the remnants of the "Blood Emperor" in his palm, and even the seal of the "Underworld Daoist" and the dark and terrifying pinhole were revealed.
On the mechanical mask with only the left half of the face, parts such as springs, clockwork, rivets, and gears suddenly showed a state of loss of elasticity and gradually stretched.
It's like having a grinning puppy lying down quickly, on all fours, exposing its belly.
Lumian rubbed it twice with his fingers and said with a smile:
"It can indeed be persuaded."
At this moment, Ludwig leaned over, looked at the "mysterious face" eagerly, and asked:
"Can I eat it?"
This is not about whether the mechanical mask can be eaten, but whether he himself can eat it.
On the "Mysterious Face", whether it is springs, clockwork, gears and bearings, the brush tightens with a brush, making the sound of the machine starting to run.
"No." Lumian answered Ludwig's question.
After becoming a "sea monster", Ludwig seems to be able to directly eat extraordinary characteristics and magical items, and then use the corresponding powers in some way.
He will not lose control because of this, but he will accumulate madness and appetite.
Ludwig took out a lollipop in disappointment and soothed his soul with sweets.
"Being persuaded means being reasonable, isn't it a normal habit to sleep every day?" Lumian smiled and withdrew his finger, "It won't be long before Anthony can become the 'manipulator' of Sequence 4, and at that time, if the child doesn't want to sleep, he will 'hypnotize' it to sleep, and the child who doesn't sleep will be eaten by Ludwig."
As for the requirement to replenish life force regularly, Lumian thought it was easy to solve - he now had to take Ludwig to the sea for a full meal every day.
After confirming that the "Mysterious Face" put herself to sleep, Franka handed the "1" level seal to Janna:
"You are responsible for keeping it, and whoever needs it can use it."
Jane did not refuse, and said thoughtfully while putting the "mysterious face" into the "traveler's bag":
"I know which way to let Julian go."
"Which one?" Franka vaguely guessed the answer.
Jian Na exhaled and said:
"'Knowledgeable'."
She explained seriously, as if to convince herself:
"'Liberal practitioners' mainly master scientific knowledge, improve memory, intelligence and logical ability, and are not highly spiritual like 'prying people' and many other ways, seeing things that should not be seen, hearing sounds that should not be heard, and not gathering disasters, and are relatively safe in daily life.
"Moreover, Julian himself is a skilled worker, he likes machinery, and with a month or two of knowledge, he should be able to completely digest the magic potion.
"In this way, coupled with the prerequisite that the end is approaching, he can become the 'appraiser' of sequence 7 in a short period of time, although the 'appraiser' itself is not strong, but it can identify magical items and avoid the risk of using the corresponding items to the greatest extent.
"In addition, the medium and low sequence extraordinary characteristics and magic medicine formulas I obtained in the 'Morse Penance' this time, except for the 'wizard' path, the most are from the 'General Knowledge' path."
There is no shortage of materials and formulations.
"Thinking about it this way, the 'general knowledge' path is indeed the most suitable, which can effectively borrow external forces, and without messing with archaeology, without getting too involved in the world of the occult." Franka agreed with Jenna.
Lumian said to Janna:
"Then your previous plan can be modified, the focus is on how to naturally and reasonably let your brother contact and choose 'knowledgeable'."
"Hmm." Jane Na nodded seriously.
…………
Thursday afternoon, Trier North train station.
Julian, wearing a gray-blue worker's uniform, a peaked hat, and carrying a suitcase, stood in the crowded second-class aisle, slowly moving forward to the sound of the arrival whistle.
With a height of nearly 1.75 meters, linen-colored hair, and well-defined facial features, after half a year of exchange and study, his confidence in his technical ability has doubled, and his whole person has shown a state of hesitation from temperament to demeanor.
He felt that he would soon be reused, promoted in rank and salary, and it would not be long before he could become the kind of senior worker who could take apprenticeships.
After the salary increases, she can move out of Rue Pasteur and live in a better neighborhood, and Celia no longer has to work part-time, so she can concentrate on studying theater performance...... Thinking of a bright future, Julian had a straight back and walked very steadily every step of the way.
With the surge of people, Julian got out of the steam train and the fairly clean platform, entered the northern train station, and passed through the barrier.
He looked around, looking for his sister who had promised to pick him up.
While searching, he found that many passengers subconsciously looked at one of the corners, reluctant to look away for a long time, and some even walked to that place.
Julian was curious but didn't go to see the fun.
The most important thing at the moment is to meet with Celia!
After walking several more steps, he finally caught a glimpse of a familiar figure.
That's also the number of people who set their sights on it.
Julian saw his sister Celia. Bello's flaxen hair became a lot darker, and she wore a simple bun, and her face was fresh and clean, like a flower that had just been washed by the rain.
Celia seems to have become beautiful again, even more beautiful than her mother's photos when she was young...... Julian hurriedly squeezed over and blocked a man who was picking up a conversation with his sister behind him.
"Welcome home!" Jane gave her brother a hug.
At the same time, she scolded her belly:
Even if the facial features are adjusted with "lies" to become more like before, they themselves have restrained their charm and are still eye-catching, but not so exaggerated......
"Let's go." Julian glanced at the enthusiastic men around him, protected his sister, and quickly left the northern train station.
Jane Na pointed to the double-decker public carriage:
"This one is already full, let's wait for the next one."
Julian looked around and pointed to the taxi carriageway:
"Let's take that one back, and I have saved some money during this time."
He thought that his frugal sister would object and needed to be persuaded, but who knew that Jane Na immediately nodded in agreement.
Julian suddenly felt that in the past six months, his sister should have changed a lot.
When she got into the two-wheeled and two-seater taxi car, Jian Na asked with a smile:
"How did you learn this time? The previous letter didn't say much detail."
Julian subconsciously straightened his back:
"I think I am about the same level as the master who taught me before."
He went on to talk about many technical details, but Jane couldn't understand them.
Jian Na cooperated with a few compliments, and then said:
"I met a very good technical expert before, she said she was a technical expert, I don't know much about it, but when she repairs the machine, she is really powerful, even I think it's amazing.
"She said, when you come back, you can communicate."
She? Julian let go of his heart.
He said with a smile:
"Okay, you can make an appointment with her."
He is now very confident in his skills.
"Put your luggage and go, let's have dinner together in the evening!" Jane Na quickly made a decision, as if her previous words were meant to lead to this matter.
Julian glanced at his sister suspiciously, suspecting that she wanted to introduce himself to someone.
However, the brother and sister reunited after a long absence, and it was not easy for him to refuse.
After putting her luggage back in the rental house on Rue Pasteur, Jane took Julien to a newly built factory on the south side of the Botanical Garden.
Inside the factory, a young woman with short hair and wearing goggles held hammers, pliers and other tools, beating around a giant machine, constantly installing rivets, levers, bearings and other parts.
Her movements are smooth and unpretentious, but all the details are just right, not a penny off, without the slightest error.
Julian looked at it, and his whole body was stunned, and his originally high self-confidence gradually collapsed.
Is this something that can be done by a person?
Even if you use a machine to make a machine, it is impossible to achieve this level!
Is this the blessing of the god of technology preached by the Steam Church?
When the woman was done, Jian Na took a few steps forward and shouted with a smile:
"Good afternoon, Miss Bella."
Bella's body trembled instinctively, then turned around and said with a smile:
"Celia, this is your brother?"
"Yes, my brother Julian." Jane made an introduction.
Julian nodded blankly, his previous hesitation had completely disappeared.
