Lord of the Mysteries

Chapter 33 "Switches"

As soon as Old Neil finished speaking, the pair of illusory eyes in the darkness behind him disappeared quickly. Even Klein, who was in the state of "spirit vision", could no longer find traces of its existence.

"This is a sign of ritual magic." Old Neil explained.

It's a bit miraculous... Spirit Vision is an enhanced version of Yin-Yang Eye? Klein was like a child who got a new toy. He looked away with interest and looked around every corner of the room, wanting to see the difference between the current alchemy room and the previous one.

The outlines of the objects were outlined in the darkness. The long table, test tubes, balances, cups, cabinets, etc. were no different from before Klein opened "Spiritual Vision", and they did not emit the slightest brilliance.

Inanimate objects have no spirituality? Klein muttered to himself, and glanced at the small silver box on the table.

Suddenly, he saw that there was brilliance inside, or blue like the sky, or bright like stars, or crimson like fire!

"There is still some kind of life in the material derived from extraordinary species, er, activity? Even if the original owner is dead?" Klein considered his words and asked Old Neil curiously.

"The accurate description is that their spirituality will remain. This is one of the keys to the successful preparation of potions, and it is also one of the roots of Beyonder's loss of control. Dunn should have told you." Old Neil calmly explained.

He didn't know what to think, and suddenly laughed:

"I remember that the formula of 'corpse collector' contains dried adult black-spotted frogs. It takes a lot of courage to take this potion."

Klein imagined it, and felt a little disgusted. He didn't agree with Old Neil, and turned his eyes to the dim surroundings that lacked sufficient light. However, there were no almost invisible spiritual bodies and ghosts that he expected.

"Didn't you say that the spiritual world is everywhere?" he asked in confusion.

Old Neil said:

"Little guy, repeat after me:"

"This is the headquarters of the Nighthawks team. This is the underground of the Church of the Evernight Goddess. There are many Beyonders here!"

"You think we'll let the spirit and the soul wander here? And the world of the spirit and the spirit are two concepts."

Klein was a little embarrassed for a moment, turned his head, and pretended to look at the faint light of the gas lamp at the entrance of the secret door:

"I understand."

While speaking, the center of his eyebrows suddenly began to twitch, uncontrollably, as if convulsed.

what happened? Just as Klein was about to turn around to ask, he suddenly saw the inner position of the secret door. On the edge of the bright yellow light, a figure that was almost transparent stood quietly. It took on a human shape, and the color of the aura perfectly blended with the dim environment, making it difficult to distinguish.

hiss!

Klein's brows throbbed violently, and his vision became confused. He focused on looking again, but there was no "invisible" figure!

Strange... He turned around and said:

"Mr. Neil, my eyebrows are twitching and it hurts a bit."

"Haha, this is very normal. You are a newly promoted Beyonder. Spirit Vision will put a lot of burden on your 'spiritual body', and it will continue to consume it. The external appearance is twitching between the eyebrows, tingling in the head, being too sensitive, There are a few symptoms such as hallucinations, and in the state of spiritual vision, it is easy to feel uncomfortable in an unfamiliar environment, and it is easy to be affected by the emotions of others. These are matters that need to be paid attention to, and must be adapted and eliminated through repeated practice. In addition, use it sparingly and end it in time." Old Neil replied with a smile.

Why does it feel like you have a feeling that you like... Klein hurriedly asked:

"Then how to exit the spirit vision state?"

He originally wanted to mention the "invisible" figure he saw just now, but after hearing that there was "a little hallucination" in the symptoms, he dismissed the idea.

Combined with the twitching and tingling between the eyebrows, Old Neil's answer is completely predictable!

"Imagine the object as before, draw attention, then switch to a meditative state, close your eyes,

Control the spirituality, tell it to stop repeatedly, and then open your eyes again, and you will find that the spiritual vision is over. "

Old Neil described leisurely, and only added at the end, "Of course, this is the most cumbersome and clumsy method. We can use practice, repeatedly suggest ourselves in meditation, and repeatedly affect our spirituality, leaving simple 'switch movements' ' For example, if I tap the center of the forehead twice, I can simply turn on the spirit vision, and then tap it twice, and I can simply end it. How to set it depends on your own habits and hobbies."

"Understood." Klein thought for a while, intending to imitate Old Neil and use the action of tapping his forehead twice as a "switch" for Spirit Vision.

"One click" is easy to be confused with instinctive knocking on the head. "Three clicks" may waste precious time in a crisis situation. As for actions such as snapping fingers, it is too personal and noticeable.

He stopped his attention, visualized the gathered light balls, and re-entered a state of meditation.

Under the guidance of Old Neil, after repeated hints and exercises, he finally "set" the "switch action".

Lightly clenching his fist, he tapped the base of his index finger between his brows twice. Klein suddenly saw an aura of different thicknesses and colors before his eyes.

After two more knocks, everything returned to its original state, and there was nothing special anymore.

"Finally got it..." He sighed happily.

It was only at this time that he realized that he was so tired that he could fall asleep at any time, and his head felt as if he had stayed up all night for three nights.

Old Neil smiled and said:

"We are not 'sleepless'. Every time you practice or use your vision too much, you need a period of sleep to recover. You can go home now, have a good rest, and go to Welch's residence in the afternoon on the way to Iron Cross Street. Go shopping and try to discover the clues of the Antigonus family notes as soon as possible, and wait until tomorrow, we will continue the teaching of occult knowledge, of course, you must not forget to read those historical documents."

"Okay." Klein agreed with Old Neil's arrangement with both hands and feet.

He took his cane and left the alchemy room. Watching the secret door closed, Old Neil returned to the arsenal. Klein rubbed his eyebrows and temples, pressed the handrail, and walked up the stairs step by step.

At this time, Dunn Smith came from behind, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his eyes were deep and said:

"Listen to Old Neil, you are very adaptable, whether it is meditation or spiritual vision."

"Maybe it's just a special feature of the Diviner." Klein replied modestly.

He guessed that Dunn had just been guarding the arsenal for Old Neil.

Dunn slowed down and was only a little ahead of Klein. After a few seconds of silence, he said without turning around:

"You have to remember that curiosity will kill the cat, and it will kill the Beyonder, don't try to explore those whispers that shouldn't be heard and existences that shouldn't be seen."

"Okay." Klein knew that this was another reminder of Beyonder's loss of control.

Entering the Blackthorn Security Company, he said hello to Luo Shan, who obviously didn't know that he had become a Beyonder, walked out of the gate slowly, went to the street, and took the trackless public carriage back to Daffodil Street, almost falling asleep on the way.

It was still morning, and the temperature was only twenty-six or seven. Klein took the copper key from his belt and opened the door of his house.

In the house, many items have not yet been added, the living room and dining room are empty, Benson and Melissa go to work and study, and they also go out early.

Klein didn't care about anything else, he closed the door with his back hand, and quickly walked upstairs, into his own bedroom with a bookshelf.

After taking off his tuxedo and hanging it on the coat rack, he couldn't wait to fall back to the bed and fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow.

Klein was awakened by the bright sunlight. He turned his head to the side, opened his eyes slowly, and found that the scorching sun was just right outside.

"What time is it? You won't miss the 'Tarot Party' in the afternoon, right?" He struggled to get up and walked to the coat rack, because the pocket watch was still in the inner pocket of the tuxedo and had not been taken out.

He not only forgot about this, but also forgot to close the bedroom door, and forgot to close the curtains of the oriel window.

Snapped!

Klein took out his pocket watch, opened it, and immediately felt relieved.

It was only after twelve o'clock, and there was still a lot of time before the agreed three o'clock in the afternoon.

—Today is Monday, the day he meets with The Hanged Man and Justice.

Klein made a thought and tapped his eyebrows twice. His eyes changed again, and he saw that his aura had returned to a bright color.

After two more knocks, he exited Spirit Vision. He easily walked to the first floor, boiled a pot of water, put some low-quality tea leaves, and ate a loaf of rye bread with it and a little butter.

After that, Klein dug out the history textbook and the original owner's notes, and leisurely "reviewed" and consolidated.

…………

At 2:57 in the afternoon, Klein closed the book, put on the pen cap, and drew the curtains with a single stroke.

Immediately afterwards, he locked the bedroom door, making the room extremely dark.

He tapped his eyebrows twice again, turned on his spiritual vision, and looked around.

After confirming that there were no invisible spiritual bodies in the room, Klein ended his spiritual vision, took out his pocket watch, and checked the time.

Tick, tick.

At one minute to three, he opened his feet and took four steps counterclockwise as before, forming a square, and for each step he recited the corresponding mantra silently in Chinese.

It's just that he didn't prepare the main meal this time.

Klein closed his eyes and felt a little itchy on the back of his hand. It seemed that the four black dots that formed the small square were protruding and emerging.

Crazy screams and tempting whispers began to echo, but Klein found that the headache was not as severe as last time.

It's not that he's unaffected, but that he's trying his best to keep himself from actively listening.

Having become an "Extraordinary", in such an environment, he has a little more self-control.

Soon, his "body" became lighter, floated upward, and saw the diffuse, gray-white, boundless, hazy mist, and saw the crimson "stars", two of which seemed to have a subtle relationship with him. Contact, it feels strangely familiar to him.

Klein looked at his blurred self, and whispered in doubt:

"The astral body that Old Neil said?"

He was calm for a few seconds, and once again transformed into the magnificent temple above the gray fog, the long bronze table directly under the broad dome, and the twenty-two high-backed chairs symbolized by different constellations.

Klein quietly walked to the top and sat down, covering his body and face with a thicker gray mist. Then, he stretched out his right hand to remotely point to the two familiar "crimson" stars, establishing a wonderful connection.
