74: Chapter 74 The Change of the Ancient Secret Scripture 74: Chapter 74 The Change of the Ancient Secret Scripture “How can you say it has nothing to do with , I still need to apply for reimbursent…”
Having his attempt to leverage public funds for personal favor exposed, Gallup touched his head and quietly defended himself with a few words, then quickly changed the subject under the aningful glances of the onlookers.
“How about it?
Everyone, shall we have a dinner together?”
Lured by the warm invitations of many older students, all four agreed to join the dinner.
Riding on a large Floating Disc, they all headed to the higher-level area of the academy’s dining hall.
Compared to the ordinary dining hall on the lower levels, the environnt in the higher-level area seed much more luxurious and elegant.
The dining table made of black pearl wood was covered with snow-white tablecloths, with delicate Silver Leaf Roses blooming in a gilded vase in the center of the table.
The light in the environnt was soft and comfortable, with a refined, subtle fragrance pervading the air, unwittingly whetting one’s appetite.
This fragrance was specially concocted by the Alchemy Academy, a Concentration Perfu.
Breathing in this aroma for a long ti, everyone felt a slight increase in their spiritual power as if they were ditating.
In the past, even entering this place required spending academic credits.
But now, relying on the reimbursent limit, Gallup boldly ordered many exquisite dishes made with High Rank ingredients and reserved a dining ti of half a Magic Ti.
During the al, many Second and Third Rank older students actively sought to curry favor with the four.
For Anvis, dealing with these fledgling students was a piece of cake.
In comparison, the other three were not as natural, especially Lorna, who ca from a commoner background and seed sowhat uneasy.
But despite this, no one showed any signs of disdain towards her; instead, they all acted very friendly and accommodating.
With the Identity of a Pamir Academy student, their future achievents would not be too low.
Everyone is smart, and no one wants to make enemies without reason.
Essentially, from the mont they stepped into Pamir, they had already beco a different class from their past selves.
Sitting on one side of the dining table, Anvis was having his al and smoothly dealing with the enthusiastic upperclassn.
Although there were many older students present, not a single one’s na was morable to him from his past life mories.
At his current status, making connections with ordinary Pamir students was not very helpful, at best it was better than nothing.
In a nutshell, everyone present was…
a potential seed with great room for growth.
With an appropriately polite smile, Anvis patiently listened to everyone’s boasts, occasionally nodding with a smile as though he was truly interested in these topics.
However, as he listened, his actions suddenly paused.
A strange, incomprehensible whisper echoed quietly within his heart.
This feeling…
Ancient Secret Scripture?
“Excuse , everyone, I have so matters to attend to and must take my leave,” Anvis said.
With a slight change in expression, Anvis quickly got to his feet, apologized to the others, and then hurriedly left the dining hall.
“No worries, if you have urgent matters, go deal with them first.”
“Goodbye, Anvis.”
“Goodbye—”
Everyone looked at him a bit strangely, bidding him farewell while speculating about the reason for his sudden departure.
……
Unaware of what the others were thinking, Anvis, back in his residence, was studying the changes in the Ancient Secret Scripture.
Because when the Ancient Secret Scripture is activated, the strange symbols on the title page can stimulate spiritual power, enhancing its vitality and growth rate.
Therefore, Anvis would browse through it every day.
But today, it seems that a certain special condition has been triggered.
After connecting with Anvis’s spiritual power, the dark green ancient to suddenly floated up by itself.
The firmly glued together pages of the main text automatically flipped open.
The environnt in the room began to undergo drastic changes, and in Anvis’s perception, everything started to beco inexplicably new and distinct.
The yellowing on the surface of the pearlwood table legs faded away, the various materials on the shelves appeared exceptionally fresh.
The mosaic floor tiles beca vividly colored, and the silver candlestick lost its dullness, shining brilliantly.
As the center of the transformation, the dark green color on the book cover slowly flowed, gradually staining each of the pages.
The High Elf script, originally a faint silvery hue, began to twist wildly and intensely after being dyed by the flowing dark green, like eels thrown into hot oil.
A large number of dark green characters wildly tumbled, crawling out from their original spots, accompanied by a low and irritating murmur, wriggling and extending to form a completely new and absurd text.
Anvis tried to turn the pages and found that there were three pages of the main text that could now be turned over.
The first page:
‘Evil’s minions walk among the world; the foolish and shortsighted people conspire with them.
They bring gaudy purple gemstones and magnificent, dreamlike dust.’
The second page:
‘rchants on the earth succumb to greed; nobles on the earth fall into madness.
The evil trade grows busier by the day, and the sealed ports drift into slumber.’
The third page:
‘Rational mages co here to investigate but strike a shadowy deal with them.
The minions take sail on the pitch-black oared galleons, carrying slaves from the earth.’
“What does this an?”
Anvis was sowhat confused, reading it several tis, but still did not understand its aning.
However, he had a feeling that as he stared at these strange characters, they too seed to be watching him back in an indescribable way.
In addition to the unlocked text, Anvis also perceived that there were three more Class Magic Abilities granted to him by the Ancient Secret Scripture.
[Flesh Clone], [Ancient Majesty], and [Twisted Seed]
Flesh Clone:
Creates a clone of the caster using their own or another creature’s flesh, with strength equivalent to half of the caster’s.
No more than two clones can exist at the sa ti.
Ancient Majesty:
Causes intelligent beings who directly look at the caster to feel the ancient majesty that matches the image in their hearts.
The introduction to Twisted Seed is much more complex than the first two Class Magic Abilities.
With the aid of an action observed by the subject, a ntal trigger is planted in their mind.
This ntal trigger grows over ti and with increased contact with information from the caster; its growth rate is related to the subject’s strength and will.
The Twisted Seed can be in a dormant or activated state, depending on the will of the caster.
In its dormant state, the seed is nearly undetectable.
When the subject is within three ters of the caster, the caster can silently read the thoughts of the subject.
Once the seed is activated, the subject will beco a zealous worshiper of the caster while maintaining their own conscious awareness, and will absolutely obey all the caster’s commands.
However, in this process, if the subject’s will is exceptionally strong, and they have not been in contact with information related to the holder for an extended period, there is a very small chance they will break free from the influence of the seed and beco forever immune to such things.
The caster can cancel a matured seed at any ti.
Only one Twisted Seed can exist at the sa ti.
