"Why don't you talk about it first, what is the so-called danger?"
Jenkins encouraged him, knowing the whole story, he didn't care about the professor's lie just now.
The professor is obviously hesitating, but presumably because of the guilt of lying just now, he is more persuasive than usual:
"But you have to promise me that no matter what you hear, you will never take the risk. Otherwise I will really tell the church about it."
"Okay, I promise."
He said perfunctorily, the professor looked at him suspiciously, nodded slightly before saying:
"A voice in my dream told me that if you want to understand yourself better, you must enter a strange place..."
Jenkins suddenly felt a little familiar about this matter.
"A treacherous realm that does not appear in a specific location, the voice said that this treacherous realm is not dangerous. The voice also said, I can suggest you to enter a treacherous realm... But I don't believe in this, how could there be a treacherous realm that is not dangerous What about the environment?"
Jenkins expressed shock that this happened again.
"What you said... doesn't appear in a specific location, it means..."
The professor glanced at Jenkins again, and shook his head decisively:
"I won't tell you, are you going to find it? Sorry, if you really want to enter that strange place, then we must at least tell Dad about it, and if Oliver agrees, I will tell you again .”
The professor was very principled on the issue of the paradox, and immediately blocked what Jenkins wanted to say. He knew that the chances of him being able to convince the professor on this matter were slim, and the professor was clearly determined not to let Jenkins take any chances.
"But there is probably another 'someone' who wants to talk to me, could it be Fanhua..."
He lowered his head and said nothing, the cat lying on his lap suddenly shook violently, and then woke up from the dream. It patted Jenkins' leg with its paw and didn't know what to do, then stood up, kicked Jenkins' leg with sleepy hind paws, and rested its front paws on the edge of the table, trying to climb onto the table.
"Don't be so naughty, I'll make you some supper later... I'll be happy? Didn't you get full from the cake just now?"
"Can cats eat cake too?"
The professor on the side asked absently, Jenkins thought for a while:
"Chocolate is different. It has drunk the animal spiritual enlightenment potion."
So the professor stopped asking.
The calm outside the window did not last long, and shortly after Jenkins and the professor finished their questions about chocolate and sweets, the second roar of a giant that frightened people from the bottom of their hearts came again from a distance.
After this cry, a sudden strong wind swept across the entire city, and the sound of stones and gravel hitting the windows made the people in the room panic.
Jenkins moved closer to the window and looked into the distance again. At the end of the dark night in the depths of the gray mist, the huge black shadow was still moving slowly. Even Jenkins, who doesn't have a giant phobia, was a little uncomfortable seeing such a terrifying scene.
He took the risk of scanning with the Eye of Reality, probably because the distance was too far, so he didn't see the aura of the Church's bestower, but the black aura of the fog giant did not change at all.
His heart sank, and he suddenly had a bad premonition.
It didn't take long for someone to call Jenkins out. Waiting for Jenkins outside the door was Mr. Coppola Bellini from the Church's Special Items Management Office. He hurriedly stuffed a sterling silver box into Jenkins' hands, and then led him out:
"Miss Bevanna told you to take this and go to the church door to find her."
"What's wrong?"
As he was talking, he heard the sound of chocolate running behind him, and only then did he think of dropping the cat on the table. But before he turned his head, with the sound of the cat kicking the ground, the chocolate jumped directly from the ground to Jenkins's shoulder, and it didn't hurt Jenkins' shoulder at all when it "landed", which made the writer feel sorry for his cat. Amazed by his agility.
"The plan failed, and something went wrong."
Mr. Bellini said simply, but there was no worry on his face:
"The eggshell was not completely smashed, it was something wrong with [Suffocating Praying Girl] in the dense fog, it seems to have been assimilated into a strange thing..."
The two walked through the corridor, and a group of nuns walking in the corridor with books hurriedly saluted Jenkins. On one side of the corridor is the door, on the other side is the window. The strong wind outside the window still hasn't stopped, and the howling wind sounds like the howling of a demon walking through the city. At the same time, the wind did not blow away Nolan's dense fog, and Jenkins guessed that the source of the wind sound was the weird [Suffocating Praying Girl].
"Anyway, go to the door of the church first. You must hold this silver box well, and don't let it touch the ground."
After speaking, Mr. Bellini turned to the corridor on the other side. He also had a lot of things to do.
The beautiful sterling silver box in his hand has a strong yellow aura, and it is a type B spell item. The six sides have blood-vessel-like protrusions interlocking with each other. Jenkins looked at the surface of the box as he walked, and for a moment he even saw that the silver liquid was really flowing in those silver protrusions, but he blinked The vision disappeared.
Many people had already gathered in the nave of the church, which is the main chapel of the church. But the two imposing doors were closed tightly. Seeing Jenkins coming out of the back corridor, people hurried out of the way. Sigrid handed Jenkins a coat. Captain Bincy suggested that Jenkins keep the cat indoors or take it away. into the pocket, and the old man standing next to the door reminded Jenkins to be careful.
"Watch out for what?"
As soon as he finished asking, the scribes on both sides of the door opened a gap, and the wind that rushed in instantly made Jenkins' clothes pull his body quickly and wanted to move back. He subconsciously narrowed his eyes, bent slightly to lower his center of gravity, and at the same time grabbed the cat and stuffed it into the pocket of his coat:
"Bevanna is waiting for you outside!"
The voice of the old man seemed to come from far away, and then someone pushed Jenkins, which made him stagger out of the door against the strong wind, and the two doors closed behind him immediately.
He knew what was going on outside when he heard the wind howling outside the window just now. But after walking out, he was still frightened by the wind like a storm. But fortunately, Nolan is a city near the sea, and there will be a big storm every few years, and related things can be found from the memory of the original owner, so Jenkins is not panicked.
"I am coming!"
He spoke with great effort in the wind, and then walked towards several blurred figures standing in front. Obviously the wind has already raged to this extent, but the fog under the night sky has become even thicker.
At this time, there were more than a dozen people standing on the steps outside the church door, all of them were demigods, and several of them were also holy sons. Miss Bevanna asked Jenkins to come over in the wind, and then saw the box he was holding in his arms:
"Okay, Bellini took the object out from behind the Vientiane door."
As she spoke, she picked up the silver box and flew into the air. Standing on the side was another holy son of the Church of the Sages, Miss Bock Stress. She was Nolan who just arrived last week, and Jenkins just greeted her.
"The silver box is B-02-3-0302 [House of Wind], which can regard the wind generated by the flow of the atmosphere as a kind of energy and absorb it into it. The current strong wind is [Suffocating Praying Girl]'s treacherous materialization We have to stop the wind before we can know what happened there."
Miss Streiss explained that the wind really weakened during the conversation, so everyone at the church door flew up one by one, flew into the thick fog and flew in the direction of the fog giant.
Only Jenkins was left looking around helplessly, he couldn't fly.
But fortunately, Miss Bevanna still remembered him, and soon came back with the silver box. The lid of the box was lifted, and some blue gas was slowly flowing inward.
She took Jenkins' hand and flew up, and it was easy to find the position of [Suffocating Prayer Girl] from the air. After all, observing the flow of the wind is the specialty of the Ocean Church. Then the demigods took action together. This item itself was not too strong, and it was just an item that had just turned into a strange thing. It was quickly contained properly and temporarily sent to the evergreen forest outside the city.
At the same time, the Blesser team scattered in the city also found other people who were sent to the front line to realize the Fog Blade plan. A group of people did not die, but they were all unconscious in every corner of the block because of the [Suffocating Praying Girl] riot.
Although the operation failed, the absence of casualties is barely a consolation.
After returning to the church again, the new plan has to be re-drawn, and at the same time, the use of more dangerous numbered items has become more difficult to judge the feasibility.
Since the power of the mist can turn a numbered item into a strange object, maybe other items will also suffer this bad luck, so what to do next is to continue to try with B-type items, or directly release the extremely dangerous A-type It is necessary to consider whether to carry out another containment after the object, or to confront the fog giant head-on.
The child of the mist protected by the egg is very powerful, and it will definitely weaken after breaking the egg. But to what extent it will weaken, the church cannot come up with a conclusion. Because they don't want to waste the power used to deal with the disaster of the last days on this matter, the church's attitude is very conservative, but from the current point of view, the conservative attitude may not be correct.
Jenkins, who returned to the church from the fog, excused himself from feeling unwell and did not attend the next meeting. He thought about the current situation and thought that he should do something instead of sitting still.
He didn't know the power of the mist giant, and he didn't dare to appear rashly as a believer in lies. Fortunately, there is another way, but it needs to convince Professor Burns.
So I found Miss Audrey who was doing divination under the white building behind the church, and asked my teacher for a favor.
