Among a hundred people, there will always be one or two lucky ones. Even if there is no process of digestion of the potion, his spirit can linger while taking the potion, and he is not killed by the pollution contained in the potion, and he is not really crazy. He gains knowledge, obtains extraordinary power, and is promoted to a Sequence 7 Beyonder.
In Baron Ramde's territory, in recent years, all death row prisoners who have committed crimes and are sentenced to death, whether they are hiding their identities or have been caught by the knights and are waiting for the death penalty, have been brought back to the never-ending theater by the secret puppets.
The theater core used them as experimental materials. There is no shortage of low-sequence Beyonder characteristics here. There are countless low- and medium-level secret puppets in the huge theater controlled by the theater core. It is also easy for this "0" level, quite active seal to remove the secret puppet, obtain Beyonder characteristics, and gather a path of low-sequence coherent Beyonder characteristics.
Then, it is a very simple process.
The core of the theater executes the instructions of the 'master'. The cold and ruthless "0" level seal slowly rotates, crushing the bodies and souls of these humans, making them the nutrients of the theater and feeding this huge miracle creation.
Those who meet the conditions are locked up, those who die have their extraordinary characteristics recycled, those who go crazy and become monsters are thrown into the Crimson Campus and become one of the many strange stories in that campus.
Recycling, disassembly and fusion, low-sequence student puppets die generously, professor puppets configured with magic potions are calm and crazy, ordinary people are the cheapest 'garbage' here, used and thrown away, even if they are cultivated Sequence 7, endure the erosion of magic potions, and have not lost control of the test subjects, they are still the lowest existence here, without human rights, and even hanging them on the eaves to make puppets is just a waste.
They are just tools to complete system tasks and have no value in themselves.
Cold and cruel, this is the character of the seal itself, the spiritual imprint of its former owner, the 'miracle master'.
In fact, when it saw those new kids, it also wanted to hang them up as secret puppets.
Ah, of course there is no way, this is its negative impact, any creature that dares to approach here should follow the instructions of the spirit line and hang them high, that is a miracle!
Olsson looked at the children around him, and then looked at the war bishop outside the door.
The war bishop cast his eyes, looked at Olsson, and nodded to him.
Although he is still the secret puppet of the theater core, the existence of the 'bionic secret puppet' module makes this high-ranking saint of sequence 3 loyal to Tang, who is already sleeping soundly, rather than the actual operator of the secret puppet, that is, the theater core.
The core of the theater often feels exhausted for its disobedient puppets, and wants to hang up the war bishop and puppetize him again to see what went wrong.
Of course, it has never put it into practice.
That trickster and the dead thing on him are too weird, Ami tofu, vegetarian, Buddhist, lying flat.
Seeing that the person outside had no intention of helping, Olson looked at the children brought back by the puppets.
Some of them opened their big eyes, some looked trembling, afraid of this new environment, some seemed calm, but their eyes could not help but look and examine, and some were yearning and worship.
He looked at the war bishop outside the door with some collapse, and his eyes for help were like substance.
He is really not good at taking care of children!
The war bishop looked at his nose with his eyes, and his nose looked at his heart with his nose, which was hilarious. There was nothing about this in his character card.
Not knowing, not being clear, not understanding, this is the responsibility of you living people. He is just an ordinary secret puppet. What actions can he take that go against his character?
Olsson: ...
Olsson pulled a stiff smile and said to the children, "Let's go wash first. The older children take the younger children. One team of boys, one team of girls..."
He looked at the two oldest children present.
A boy named Robert Andrews, an orphan, and a girl named Arlene Catherine, who has a mother who is seriously ill and recuperating in the church. She has the same surname as her mother.
These children who were transferred in and gathered together had been placed in the small church next to the school auditorium before Olsson came. After a few hours of getting along, these children seemed to have found their backbone and had the most basic trust in the two children who seemed to be the oldest.
People who are easily stimulated by unfamiliar environments hug each other for warmth. Seeing Olsson looking over, the girl named Arlene stood up, and the boy next to her also stood up.
Olsson found the bruises and scars on the girl's body. Her face had the numbness of the lower class, but there was light in her eyes.
Someone else came in from outside the door. They were two nuns in monastic robes. They were gentle and would not make people feel bored. The symbols on the monastic robes were not any of the Seven Gods Church, but abstract symbols composed of twisted lines and pupilless eyes.
They praised the miracle in a low voice, crossed their fingers in front of them, made a strange prayer, and then looked at Olsson.
Olsson nodded to them, and they then took the boy and girl out together.
Seeing that he was not dealing with it alone, Olsson couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
"Really, why do you let me do this kind of thing."
He complained a little, but at the same time he was also vaguely surprised by Tang's state.
Before, he was overwhelmed by the task of taking care of children. As a traveler with enough experience, Olsson thought of Tang's previous state.
The Abraham family has a complete apprentice path. It was once a family with angel-level powerhouses. Even if it declined due to the full moon curse, the mystical knowledge it should have will be passed down from generation to generation, allowing future generations to continue to enjoy the "dividend of the times".
The Abraham family is not lacking in knowledge of fortune tellers and thieves who are adjacent to apprentices. As one of the few travelers in Abraham, Olson's authority is not small, and he can know a lot of secrets.
This includes the sequence 4 of the fortune teller path, the ability of the trickster, the potion formula, and the promotion ceremony.
"Trickster, Tang is already a trickster, is there something wrong with his mind?"
The biggest problem with the trickster sequence is the spirit body spirit worm that will split at any time. The trickster is also one of the few demigods in many paths and many sequences who needs anchor support at the sequence 4 stage.
As Olsson recalled the mental state of Tang when he saw him before, he felt that the more he thought about it, the more possible it was.
Could it be that the ritual was incomplete and the promotion was barely completed, causing his schizophrenia to become more serious?
So where did the devil he killed come from? Was he from the Blood Worship Cult?
He walked out and wanted to find Tang, but was stopped by the War Bishop.
"What he needs is rest." The War Bishop said concisely.
Olsson was silent and did not go to find his friend.
There are mid-sequence extraordinary people with audience channels here, and I think Tang should be able to handle this.
Olsson exhaled.
"I'll go see those children." He said.
The campus is very large. After the nuns took the children to wash and gave them two sets of clean and hygienic clothes, some boys and girls who were also dressed neatly led them through the wide and clean road to the huge building in the distance.
The road is paved with dark blue asphalt, with white buildings scattered around, and flower beds and various green plants scattered around. There is no dirt, mess, or poor quality. Those who stopped not far away had curious eyes, but no malice, no eyes waiting for a price, clean, pure, and reassuring.
There are no hungry women and children here, the air is clear, there is no rotten stench caused by garbage not being cleaned up in time, no maggots and flies attracted by corpses, the air is filled with the aroma of food, some people are laughing and playing, it is the unique vigor of young people, there is no bitterness in facing life.
For the people at the bottom of society, everything here is like a scene that can only be seen in a dream, unreal and disorienting, just like the kingdom of gods preached by major churches, the paradise that can only be visited after death...
"The four of you share a room, and you can choose roommates you trust. If you feel that you can't take care of the children, you can leave them to me. There are good teachers in the school who can also take good care of them."
Take a group of girls to the corridor on the fourth floor. The leader, a girl in a black robe with a gentle face, is light and pleasant. Her lively and moving voice seems to be full of magic, which makes the girls involuntarily let down their guard.
"My name is Emily, and I am a member of the student union. If you have any questions, you can come to me."
"Can she come with us?"
The leader of the group of foreign girls asked the student union member. She was referring to Ava, who was only four years old, and her sister was only seven years old.
"Of course, this is your right." Emily said, "After you have sorted yourself out, um, then we will go to other places to learn about it."
"To be honest, it is a bit tiring to visit the entire school in one day." She suggested sincerely, "Wait a minute, how about we go to the cafeteria to eat something first?"
"Food, cafeteria?"
A girl asked weakly, "Is it a place where you can eat? Can you eat your fill? Do you need money... I, I haven't eaten my fill for a long time, and I don't have any money..."
"Of course you can eat your fill, and you don't need money now." Emily was enthusiastic.
"The school has a certain subsidy loan policy for freshmen. For those who are not old enough or do not have the ability to make money on their own, the school will give you a portion of money every month for your tuition and living expenses. Ah, of course, these need to be repaid when you grow up. As long as you perform well, there are also grants and scholarships every year, which are enough for you to live a normal life."
"You know, Miskatonic is the only school in the northern continent, and it will be the greatest school that has never been seen before and will never be seen again... I'm telling you the noodles in the cafeteria next to the Language Institute are really good. Believe me, this is a good decision."
"Okay, take a break and put your clothes in the closet. The bedding and other things are ready. We'll go buy the rest later," Emily pushed open the door of the dormitory. The clean and tidy environment inside made the girls who stopped by widen their eyes again.
"Can we really live here?"
"Every student of Miskatonic lives here. Ah, of course, if you like to live alone, the school can also satisfy you, but you need to determine your major before you talk about it. This is just a transition."
Emily turned on the light in the room, letting the bright white light shine in the four-person dormitory.
This is not a candle. The strange light source made a group of children stop and whisper.
"That's the bed, the bathroom is on the balcony... It's very clean, but you have to clean it yourself. If it's too messy, the teacher will come to check... All the rooms have the same standard. Don't worry, we have a lot of rooms here, enough. Look, the window of this room can see the playground outside, which is lively at night. The seniors are in class now..."
While they were talking, the older children led the younger children to tidy up the bed. The skinny little children explored everything they could see with curiosity, and their hearts were surging.
Until they clumsily picked up the chopsticks, or grabbed the bread on the table with their clean little hands, and took a bite of the sweet taste that almost occupied all their taste buds, some of them cried, and some cried and laughed.
They didn't know what their fate would be like at first, but if this was a dream, let it continue.
This is a miracle, this is their miracle.
This kind of ethereal spiritual feedback is like a pool of sweet spring water that is constantly gushing out for miracle workers, gurgling out, endless, and flowing slowly.
The core of the theater was satisfied in an instant, which was much more comfortable than the explosions (creating miracles) in the laboratory of the inner campus all day long~
Flowers that have never been seen before will chase after the sun. For people living at the bottom, even a little bit of kindness radiated by high-ranking people is an incomparable miracle in their eyes.
And this miracle comes from the owner of this territory who brought them here.
