When it came to foreign spells, Gu Jun already had his own understanding of them. This note written by Lenton was one of them.
This had already shown itself on the giant stone on the high wall. At the time, no one could photograph it, draw it, print it, or even memorize it because when the spell was written, it was imbued with power.
Now, be it Gu Jun, Xue Ba, or even Uncle Dan, it was not difficult for them to write down the poem by the Mad Arab in the foreign language.
"But that does not have power," Gu Jun grumbled, "Just like what Lenton said, it is just some ugly and boring words."
Therefore, the spell that Mr. Child gave to the watcher was not just some simple zombie language. Without understanding the mystery behind the spell, even if one could carve the spell and print it out, it would be a waste of paper. Not a single one of them would be effective.
"Not only is it necessary to write the spell, it requires power to cast it."
That was why he was the only one who could trigger it, because only he could sense it.
After reading this note, Gu Jun started to read this page from the beginning. He was hungry and self-deprecating. 'To be a good doctor, I have to learn spells. What a strange world.'
This page was obviously the opening chapter of the spell book. It appeared to be a summary of the foreign people's understanding of spells.
"Mental state …" Gu Jun skimmed through the first paragraph. It was about the relationship between spells and mental state. Spirit had a great impact on the casting of spells. The more focused and clear one was, the more effective a spell could be. That was why it was very important to train, meditate, and purify one's spirit.
However, this summary did not specify the specific method. He turned to the next paragraph, 'Sacrifice'.
This page said, "Humanity is built on the foundation of normal power. Once a normal human gains supernatural power, they will become something else, and they will slowly drift away from the beautiful and ugly humanity. Anyone who comes into contact with spells will be permanently changed by it. "
"Hmm." Gu Jun could not help but think about this paragraph. At first glance, it appeared to be poisonous chicken soup, but …
Human nature and divinity … Were the various human nature and concepts that humans cherished based on ordinary people …
Gu Jun continued to read. The foreign people had this concept. No matter what kind of spell they came into contact with, it would be a form of mental damage. Even summoning the Goddess of Life was a power that did not belong to humans. It was still a deviation from human nature.
Therefore, one of the reasons why Doctor Carlop was respected was because he had power, but it was also a kind of sacrifice.
According to Phecda's assessment system, the spell would change the mental state of the person who came into contact with it.
[There is a price to pay for using supernatural powers. Doctor Carlop needs to treat himself as a sacrifice at all times.]
"Sacrifice …" Gu Jun murmured. He had suffered mental damage and almost lost his life several times after coming into contact with the spell. It was not because of coincidence, recklessness, or that he was the only one who had done it.
Be it him, the people from the Afterlife Cult, the R'yleh Cult, or even the zombies like Chen Defa, they were all human beings.
Once mortal creatures like them used Beyonder powers, regardless of whether the effects and goals were good or bad, there would always be "sacrifices". Sacrificing one's mind and body was the most common, but there were also times when other things were used as sacrifices.
Therefore, the Spell Book clearly stated that Spells were not something that could be cast on a whim and then recovered from after a short nap. It was also not something that could cure all diseases with a single cast. There was no such thing as a Spell. Doctor Carlop could not afford to have these misconceptions. Every time he used a spell, it was a big deal.
However, Doctor Carlop had to have the conviction to treat himself as a sacrifice and never use others as a sacrifice.
Lenton jotted down a note next to this paragraph. "I do wish to use Professor Orlem as a sacrifice, but he is too strict. I'm afraid even the Goddess of Life will not accept him."
Gu Jun could see that when Landon wrote down this diary, the apocalyptic plague had not broken out yet. He was living the life of a student that he missed so much …
However, there were a few more lines below this note. Each line was different, and the handwriting was different. They were not written in one go, they were added later.
"How many more sacrifices do we need? Are we not sacrificing enough?
Sacrifice, sacrifice.
If everything can still be salvaged …
I don't know whether this is meaningful or not. "
The further he went, the more messy the words became. There was a sense of gloom in them. They were probably written after the outbreak of hemoptysis …
What was the meaning of 'this is'? Gu Jun could feel the struggle between the lines. It was a struggle due to the glimmer of light in front of him. What had happened to Lenton after he communicated with the Necro-skins? Was suicide a kind of sacrifice?
"But Lenton, have you forgotten that superpowers can change human nature?"
Gu Jun was reminded of the Son of Misfortune's travel notes. He had looked at everything from a different perspective. It was a kind of transformation.
There were quite a lot of words on the page, but the description of sacrifice was gone. Even though there were still many questions, with this systematic knowledge, Gu Jun's mind became clearer. It was like his mind had been cleansed, and he felt much better.
If he had to discuss the spell with Tong Ye and the rest, he would be able to explain it better.
Furthermore, if he used the R'yleh Curse again, it would be more effective, but would it cause more damage to himself?
"I still need to train my heart, or else I won't be able to hold on. If I increase my mental strength, the damage from sacrifice will be much weaker. "
Gu Jun made up his mind. "I still need to find a way to trigger the illusion on this page to get more information."
However, there was something more urgent. Gu Jun stood up from the muddy ground beside the tree and walked toward the Psychology Building. As he walked, he took out his phone to call Commander Yao. With the excuse that he had received a new revelation, he explained the situation of separating the victims of Nightmare Illness.
"Ah Jun, are you sure about this?" Yao Sinian's voice that came from the phone was hesitant.
There were more than one hundred Nightmare Illness patients at Eastern State. If they were separated, Phecda would be hard pressed for manpower.
"Commander Yao, my mind is very clear. We really have to do this," Gu Jun said seriously. He knew how bad the epidemic was, and Phecda at Eastern State was going out of control, but no matter what, he could not allow the 'worse result' to happen.
Lobotomy was not even a temporary solution. They had to enter that world, that deserted island, to truly solve the problem.
Only then could all the mysteries be solved.
"Let me go to the Arctic Ocean." Gu Jun added, "There might be a door that leads to another dimension there. Perhaps I can find it and open it."
He had no way to enter the dream, so he could only rely on the spell.
