Chapter 26 Mysterious Baptism
Just after Jason's voice fell, a warm current overflowed from his stomach.
They turned into specks of light.
Like a firefly, like a star.
Then, from these rays of light, words were born.
sI oT Yn!
Figure repeat!
These newly-born pictures began to absorb a little light, and when the light disappeared completely, there were only three characters left, shining brightly in front of Jason's eyes.
Then, they merged into Jason's body.
When it comes, it is the stomach.
When you return, it is the heart.
The picture complex language attached to the wall of Jason's heart flashes with every beat of Jason's heart.
The blood flowing from the heart started the initial change with such a flicker.
Jason was temporarily unable to perceive such a change.
But he could sense a slight difference.
His vision, hearing, and brain became clearer.
The most immediate changes are attributes.
In front of the retina, Jason saw the prompt——
[Accepting the mysterious baptism, being judged...]
[Spirit +0.2, Perception +0.2]
...
And below the prompt is [Protection from Evil (Basic)]
[Protection from evil (basic): You need to know the picture and use some gestures, and consume a lot of physical strength to activate this secret technique of defense and expelling evil. As a secret technique, it is spread in the night watchmen and In the inheritance of some other forces; learning it means that you have truly 'touched' to the mysterious side, and you have a little self-protection power, but don't expect too much, you just have mastered its foundation ;Effect: A special force field attached to the surface of the body, which can not only defend against the attacks of negative energy creatures (below the blade level), but also repel them and their accompanying power (below the blade level)]
(Note 1: Although it is a seal that does not require assistance, if you have sunflowers or pollen, it will be easier for you to complete this seal)
(Note 2: The completion of the gesture, there is no fixed time, completely depends on your hand speed)
(Note 3: When your physical strength is not enough, you will be backlashed and hurt, but the effect of defense and expelling evil still exists)
...
"baptism?"
This word with special meaning made Jason stunned for a moment.
He raised his hand to his chest and felt the strong beating of his heart in his chest.
He could feel that the scene just now was not just a so-called attribute increase, but a fundamental change.
That was a powerful beginning!
Although it may be inconspicuous at first and at the moment, when it reaches a certain level, qualitative changes will naturally occur.
However, that will take a long time.
Jason thought about it, looked down, and looked at the introduction about [Protection from Evil (Basic)].
"Can the night watchman be considered a night watchman if he has mastered [protection from evil]?"
Jason guessed.
And with the message of 'his teacher', such a guess is almost certain.
However, some of the next annotations made Jason unsure.
"Below the blade level?"
"This represents the monster level?"
"If the monster that can be solved with a knife is at the blade level, then below the blade level..."
The indeterminate guess and the description of "below the blade level" made Jason feel very insecure, and he almost subconsciously looked at the need for [Protection from Evil] to rise to the next level.
[Increasing protection from evil (Basic → Getting Started) requires 6 points of satiety. 】
...
an expected number.
"There is still 1 point of satiety remaining,
Need more satiety! "
After Jason glanced at [Satisfy Degree], he set his eyes on the notebook that brought him many surprises.
This time, the unobstructed reading allowed him to quickly find what he was looking for.
'Galungus Hound is a kind of guard dog bred by the witch Gerungs to guard her herbal garden. They are cunning and cruel, swarming in groups, with excellent scales and defense, but soft abdomen. Although they are called hounds, they are It is far away from the real hound. Some people suspect that this is a kind of xenogeneic species, but with the death of the witch Gerungs, no one knows the true origin of this hound. ’
'However, after the witch-hunting incident, the Goat hounds did not disappear. On the contrary, because they were easier to breed and raise, they were used by more witches and wizards as guard dogs to protect their property. Of course, It is more about hunting, after all, that is their job; in Encore, there was a cross between the Golls Hound and the common dog, inheriting the strength of the Golls Hound and the loyalty, intelligence and deepness of the common hound. Favored by high-level people, the price is extremely high (haven't seen the real thing, just rumors). ’
Unlike the previous stumblings, this time Jason easily translated the full text.
Then, he flipped through the notebook again.
He hoped to find a technique similar to [Protection from Evil].
But unfortunately, there is only one skill [Protection from Evil] in the entire notebook, and the rest are introductions to monsters.
"Similar tricks shouldn't be common."
"Or……"
"It was 'my teacher' who thought I couldn't master that much."
Jason pondered, and carefully placed the notes given to him by 'his teacher' on the inside of his shirt, on the side of his heart.
Two unexpected rescues were enough to make him understand that this notebook was much more than it seemed.
Although I have obtained the most desired knowledge from it, it is better to keep it as a 'heart goggle' than to keep it on the shelf.
Next, Jason began to check his weapons and ammunition.
After confirming that there is no problem, he walked out of the room.
Stay in the room and no food will come to your door.
If you want to eat, you naturally need to hunt.
Of course, there is one more thing that is imminent.
Bundy!
Bundy who stood with him in the 'Moon Mask' club before.
He was being watched.
What about Bundy?
The possibility of being targeted is also very high.
Jason will not ignore the death of the other party. After all, the cooperation between the two parties is quite pleasant, and he does not want to change people suddenly.
...
Bundy, who had just returned from Crook's Mine, Didaiku Street, etc., sat in the carriage and couldn't help breathing a sigh of relief.
Because, in those places, there is no strange change similar to the 'moon mask'.
Even Bundy, the well-run sheriff, couldn't help but shiver when he recalled the previous scene.
He had never faced a situation like that.
Those monsters look a lot cuter by comparison.
Of course, this is also a comparison.
If he really faced those monsters, Bundy would draw a gun without hesitation and give him a shot.
"Monsters, moving corpses... When did Lord become like this?"
Bundy asked himself.
Then, he smiled wryly and shook his head.
He doesn't know the answer.
All he knew was that he was supposed to do what a sheriff should do: protect civilians, protect Lord.
leftover?
His ability is limited and he can't manage that much.
Ugh.
Sighing softly, Bundy took out his beloved pipe from his arms and pressed the tobacco with one hand.
Fatigue made him need tobacco to refresh himself, but before he could ignite the cut tobacco, a tremendous force suddenly came from the left side, causing Bundy to slam into the wall of the carriage.
Then, without waiting for Bundy to react, it was a whirlwind.
