Master the Abyss, starting from an apprentice priest.

Chapter 110: Sayid's Notes

[Intelligence] Rocklan, who has a quadruple destiny, is the most suitable candidate as an "off-field aid" - especially at the moment when Luo Xiu's free attributes have all added resistance, it is not difficult to fool such a "generalist".

This was based on previous successful experience. After all, Priest Leonard, who also had the "Quadruple Destiny", could not see any clues from Luo Xiu.

As a "universalist" of [intellect], Rockland's "divine" attribute must be lower than Leonard's, so he cannot see through Luo Xiu's disguise.

"..." Luo Xiu thought about it with a playful expression.

However, before making a decision.

Luo Xiu first had to "check" Sayid's Notes to confirm its threat.

"Intis."

Luo Xiu suddenly said, "Give me the copy of Sayid's Notes that you found."

Hearing this, Index nodded and reached her hand into her clothes.

Then, Index pulled out a purple sheepskin notebook from her inner shirt.

"...My Lord." Index raised both hands and held the parchment note in her palms, and Luo Xiu reached out to take it.

It was a notebook that was dyed with purple plant pigments. The cover had the word "Said" written in ancient characters, and a dark red sheen was faintly flowing through the characters.

There are signs of fire on the edges of the manuscript, indicating that it seems to have experienced some disaster but was ultimately preserved intact.

Luo Xiu then opened the notebook, and just like the "Holy Book of the Abyss", the forbidden knowledge recorded in it instantly invaded Luo Xiu's brain.

[You looked directly at the taboo]

[Triggering "divinity" immunity judgment]

[The minimum divinity requirement is "14", your divinity is "18"...]

[Immunity successful, immune to this mental pollution]

Although Luo Xiu added all his free attribute points to "resistance", as a "consecrated priest", his own "divinity" attribute value was nearly twenty points, which was enough to deal with most of the ordinary "forbidden knowledge".

Even if Luo Xiu cannot pass the divinity test, his "resistance" attribute is now ridiculously high, and he is basically immune to the negative effects brought about by "mental pollution".

As Luo Xiu opened the notebook and successfully resisted the "spiritual pollution" of the forbidden knowledge contained therein, he was able to see the true forbidden knowledge recorded in it.

In the entire book "Said's Notes", there are only two items of "forbidden knowledge".

——【Black Devouring Rune】and【Rotten Bone Alchemy】!
The former is a derivative of the "Rune Skills", but compared to ordinary Rune Skills, the rune creations of the "Black Devouring Rune" have more terrifying destructive power. The price is that the rune creations of the "Black Devouring Rune" have a very short lifespan, and will eventually be backfired by the "Black Devouring Rune", turning into "black-devouring monsters" with life and destructive instincts.

The latter is a derivative of "alchemy", but compared with ordinary alchemy, the alchemy material of "rotten bone alchemy" is "the bones of extraordinary people". Alchemy that uses extraordinary people as "raw materials" will exert a power that is far more terrifying and more evil than ordinary alchemy.

"...Tsk."

Luo Xiu quickly browsed through most of the contents recorded in "Side's Notes" through the panel, and he had a rough idea of ​​the degree of threat.

——If the materials are sufficient and the user does not care about ethics, the forbidden knowledge recorded in "Side's Notes" will be extremely dangerous!

Luo Xiu’s first reaction was that such a thing must not be handed over intact to the “universalist” Rocklan.

So, Luo Xiu opened "Side's Notes" again, selected a few key pages, and tore off a few pages in a "hiss".

In this way, "Said's Notes" is an incomplete version...

The incomplete forbidden knowledge can only exert one tenth of its original power.

And Luo Xiu became the only one who truly knew what was recorded in "Side's Notes".

Although extraordinary people without the destiny of [intelligence] cannot learn and apply this knowledge, Luo Xiu can decide who will bring out the true value of this knowledge.

Controllable threats are the only reliable force.

"... Then." Luo Xiu pondered. "It's time to find the 'Generalist' Rocklan to hand in the mission."

……

Sina City, Alchemy Institute.

Between true knowledge.

As soon as Luo Xiu arrived at the Alchemy Academy and informed the scholar on duty of his identity, he was personally received by the "universalist" Rocklan.

The "universalist" Rocklan, wearing a golden willow headband and a gilded robe, looked at the young priest opposite him with surprise and praise.

"Oh, Luo Xiu! Thank you for the gift of 'Truth'."

Rockland smiled and said, "I didn't expect that you could complete my commission so quickly."

Luo Xiu then took out "Side's Notes" and presented the note to Rockland with both hands, and Rockland reached out to take it.

"Lord Rockland, this should be the book 'Said's Notes' that you want." Luo Xiu nodded.

An expression of joy was already visible on Rockland's face. He played with the notebook in his hand repeatedly and wanted to open it several times to take a look, but he held back in front of Luo Xiu.

——The "universalist" Rockland, his purpose is indeed not simply to worry about the spread of taboo knowledge. Does he also want to get involved in taboos?
Luo Xiu observed his expression but didn't say anything extra.

Fortunately, several pages of key content in the notebook had been torn off... Luo Xiu thought thankfully.

If Rockland really learns the "incomplete forbidden knowledge", then this generalist will most likely go astray...

Suddenly, Rockland suppressed the joy on his face, pushed the notebook aside, and looked at Luo Xiu.

"Rosius Carlos."

The invisible spiritual pressure radiated from Rockland to the surrounding areas.

Rockland's "Net of Perception" immediately enveloped Luo Xiu's figure.

"—Have you ever tried to flip through and look through this codex?"

Rockland asked slowly, his lake blue eyes becoming dim and deep as he asked this question.

Feeling the gaze from Rockland, Luo Xiu fluently spoke out the words he had prepared in advance:

"I have not made such an attempt, Lord Locklan. I know this is a taboo. As a 'priest', it is impossible for me to try to read such a taboo."

Luo Xiu looked solemn, and as he said this, his spiritual fluctuations did not show the slightest disturbance.

"Well, that's good." Rockland nodded.

Rockland's "Network of Perception" failed to detect any unusual spiritual fluctuations from Luo Xiu, which meant that Luo Xiu did not lie to him and everything he said was true.

Having come to this conclusion, Rockland retracted the "Net of Perception" and said with confidence:

"Luo Xiu, you did a great job. And I've said before that when you complete my commission, I will give you a more generous reward."

After saying that, Rockland clapped his hands, and a "crackling" sound came from the walls of the room.

The pure white wall was pulled apart, and a tall magic puppet slid out.

Three exquisite rune pendants are hung on the puppet's metal arms made of rings.

"Luo Xiu, each of these three pendants contains the core of a 'Second Order Magic Puppet'."

Rockland smiled and said, "You can choose one and take it away."
