Jenkins on the other side was still unaware of the changes in the night. At this time, he was already lying face up on the floor of the bathroom, his soul and perception completely separated from the dimension of the material world.
June belongs to the god of starry sky and balance [Vientiane Starry Sky], and July belongs to the god of destiny and law [Fate Hermit]. According to legends handed down from ancient times, the existence of the God of Destiny is quite ancient. Although they are not called the original three gods like nature, the earth and the sun, most people think that the appearance of the god of destiny may not be later than the first three.
The Hermit is a very low-key god. Specifically, if the records of the twelve righteous gods known to descend to the material world are counted, then in the current eighteenth century, the Hermit of Destiny is the one with the least number of appearances.
Destiny means He is omnipresent, and Law means He respects the order of the physical world. Therefore, although the Church itself is powerful, the Church of Destiny, like their god, is not very prominent in the human world.
Jenkins once again seemed to be in the high-altitude clouds, surrounded by white mist, chants and small whispers came as expected. At a higher position, two ladies who couldn't see clearly were gradually approaching. In Jenkins' eyes, they were far taller than the ancient titans he had seen before, but they didn't feel oppressive at all.
He didn't think about it according to his past experience, he just used his senses to capture the information around him, and let the huge flow of information without any logic and vague feelings fill his heart.
But this time there was an accident. Jenkins didn't do anything, but he felt that he was "climbing". Specifically, he felt that he was gradually approaching those two figures whose faces he couldn't see clearly.
The headache and dizziness from the initial exposure to the Whisper at the End of the Moon reappeared as he moved "higher". This long-lost feeling made him almost faint, but he still endured the pain and waited for the final result.
The closer you get to the two ladies, the more you can feel the level of power that is completely different from ordinary people. This is not a difference in the amount of energy, let alone a difference in physical strength, this is a completely different gap that cannot be measured by numerical values.
Ants and humans can still use data to distinguish the size of power, but the power gap between ants and the universe is hard to explain.
I thought it was the two ladies calling me, but in the end they didn't look at Jenkins for even a second. As the hazy feeling faded away, the sense of falling told Jenkins that he was about to wake up.
With doubts, he was once again forced to experience the extreme loss and hesitation of falling from high dimensions. But different from the past, the first sensation this time was not chocolate bouncing on his body, but a woman's voice:
"Jenkins, Jenkins, are you okay? Wake up."
The voice was indistinct at first, and then gradually became clearer, and Jenkins realized that it was Miss Bevanna's voice.
"Why did Miss Bevanna appear in the locked bathroom of my house?"
He returned to his physical body in doubt, and when he opened his eyes, he found that there was more than one person in his bathroom.
Miss Bevanna knelt on one knee on the floor tiles, holding his head. Behind her, the figures of Dad, Hathaway, Britney and Julia could be vaguely seen.
"Are you awake? What happened just now? Oh, you're bleeding!"
Seeing Miss Bevanna said in surprise, Jenkins immediately got up from her arms. The mirror was in front of him, and by the light of the gas lamp on the side of the wall, he saw his bloody nose and bloody eyes.
"Meow~"
Chocolate jumped out from nowhere, and jumped onto the sink, then raised his body, his front paws were on Jenkins' clothes, his back paws were stepping on the somewhat smooth edge of the sink, and he looked up at Jenkins worriedly.
"I'm fine."
He said to his cat and the people behind him at the same time, holding the sink with one hand, quickly turned on the faucet to wet his hands and wiped it on his face. But instead of getting the blood off his face, it made his face even more blurred.
"What's going on?"
Miss Bevanna behind her asked again, Jenkins lowered his head and pretended to be uncomfortable:
"I wanted to wash up just now, but suddenly I became dizzy, and then I didn't know."
In his mind, he wanted to search for some fragments of knowledge and information he had just acquired, and wanted to pick out one of them to prevaricate, saying that he had gained something new. But when I feel a little bit about my own situation, I feel something is wrong. Turning around at once, and calling out all the ability spots at the same time, the number of spots is obviously wrong:
"I seem to have a new ability... Miss Bevanna, do you know what the white-based ability [Cycle] is?"
"Loop? How could it be this?"
While Miss Bevanna showed a thoughtful expression, Dad's voice came from outside the bathroom. Seeing that Jenkins was awake, the three ladies in the family were all crowded into the bathroom, so Dad was forced to retreat outside.
Hathaway, Britney and Julia had already changed into decent clothes and looked at him worriedly.
"I'm fine."
He emphasized again, picked up the cat on the sink and shook it gently, and did not forget to ask:
"Is it because you saw that I haven't come out for a long time, that's why you found Dad and Miss Bevanna?"
He thought he was spending too much time whispering.
"No, according to Miss Michel, it's only been half an hour since you left them. It was my father and I who took the initiative to look for you. Something happened!"
Miss Bevanna was reminded by this sentence and thought of the purpose of coming here.
She took Jenkins' hand and walked out, speaking quickly:
"After midnight, the dense fog in Nolan changed. We haven't seen you join the battlefield, nor have we seen you go to church. We were worried about what happened to you, so we came to your house to have a look. Are you sure that you are now physically Are you okay? Don't force it, but if it's really okay, follow me immediately, I need you now."
After hastily saying goodbye to the girls at home and promising that he would return safely, Jenkins, Dad and Miss Bevanna opened the door together.
Immediately, a thick mist like water flowed towards the house, but the moment it touched the door frame, it seemed to be blocked by an invisible barrier.
The three broke into the dense fog outside the house together, and Jenkins even felt that the density of the air outside had changed by an order of magnitude, and he actually felt that the air was hindering him during his actions.
He raised his head and looked into the distance, the sky in the middle of the night was completely covered by fog. And in the depths of the dense fog, in the distance of the city, a huge black and thin human figure is moving slowly. The moment he looked at it, Jenkins seemed to feel that every trace of mist around his body was trying to penetrate his pores, and every strand of air around him was full of malice.
He shook his head to dispel the feeling, and boarded the carriage parked at the door with his father and Miss Bevanna:
"What's going on, what happened to that black shadow?"
The carriage was heading towards the city center at high speed, and Miss Bevanna in the carriage also briefly explained to Jenkins. After the church completely wiped out the Smell and Appreciation Committee a week ago, it was learned from the seized documents that Nolan’s fog had undergone the first round of qualitative changes from quantitative changes. creepy thing. At the same time, the committee also predicted that before the end of last month, these weird fogs will have a second qualitative change. The church has been on guard, but they did not expect the changes to begin at the last moment at the end of the month.
"I don't know what it is. All the intelligent life that approached the giant humanoid creature has disappeared. The giant in the gray fog is currently only moving repeatedly within the range of three blocks. Fortunately, there are commercial streets nearby, and there are very few residents... But the church has lost manpower, and now the practice of approaching the fog giant has been banned. The church plans to open the maze like last time, at least not let it continue to affect the city, this needs you Jenkins, we need to speed up. "
The third person in the carriage, that is, the old man, showed a worried look. He lowered his head in silence, and Jenkins wanted to bring his father into the topic, so he asked about his new ability [Cycle] again.
He suspected that this ability was acquired because he had listened to the whispers at the end of the month twelve times, from the end of the month of [The Moon of the Hermit and Thunder in 1865] to the beginning of the month of [The Moon of the Hermit and Thunder] in 1866, exactly is a complete cycle.
"A very rare basic ability, I have only seen it in the materials before."
The old man said, Miss Bevanna had never heard of this ability, so she looked over with interest.
"I've talked to you before. Most of the abilities of the white basic class are not very obvious, but they are the prerequisites for some powerful abilities, or can increase the success rate of learning some abilities. The abilities you have learned are too messy, and you may not have them. This feeling, but for the Gifter who has been strictly trained by the church, every white basic ability is as important as the foundation of the ability system. The effect of [Circulation] is not very good to describe, it mainly plays a passive role, You can roughly understand that this will allow the holder of the ability to evolve."
"evolution?"
This made Jenkins inexplicably think of Dad's key, so he somewhat understood why Dad knew such a rare ability but Miss Bevanna didn't.
"Yes, that is to say, with each year's change, [cycle] will make the holder stronger and stronger, and every December cycle will be an evolution. process."
The old man raised his hand and drew a circle in the air, and as expected, he saw the surprised expressions of Jenkins and Miss Bevanna under the dim light of the fire in the carriage.
