Chapter 316 Different Styles of Solutions Lumian stood in front of the metal cabinet, lost in thought. There are only a few days left before the "art of prophecy" is revealed. He definitely hopes to become the "contracted one" and gain three unique abilities before looking for Guillaume Bennet. That way he will be more certain. Otherwise, if they only relied on the "arsonists", even if Franca had become the "Witch of Pleasure", and with the help of Anthony Reid and Janna, the chances of success in besieging and killing the parish priest with very strange abilities would not be too high. They might win, but there was almost no hope of catching him and not causing any casualties in their own team, unless they used Mr. K's finger and let the messenger of the "Aurora Society" get involved. This is only the case when we consider Guillaume Bene as our enemy. If he has allies and a few gifted ones or extraordinary people as his subordinates, and he himself is stronger than when he left Cordu Village, even if Mr. K is included, the operation cannot be considered safe. What Lumian hopes is to locate the whereabouts of the parish priest, set a trap and then fish him out. That would be much easier, and this requires Lumian's own strength to be sufficient, otherwise the act of "fishing" would be very dangerous. Looking at the thick data on spiritual creatures, Lumian's mind raced, thinking about how he could find a suitable contract partner in a short period of time: “Set a time limit, watch as much as you can, and then choose from what you have already watched? "I'm unwilling to accept this. This will cause me to miss the right... “No matter how unwilling you are, you have to accept the reality. Nothing can be perfect. You have to know how to face up to your imperfections. “It’s not time for me to accept reality as I’m a sow! “Next week, just confirm the whereabouts of the parish priest and don’t take any action for now. Wait until I finish reading these materials and then formulate a detailed plan? "It takes about a month, and there is a high chance of accidents...
"Hmm, the 'Knowledge Rabbit' seems to have the ability to read knowledge and extract key points. Can I summon one to help me read the information and extract the keywords of each spiritual creature, just like I did when I wrote the report letter before? Then I can study the corresponding spiritual creature in detail based on the keywords... "It is a creature from the spiritual world. It has been exposed to this kind of knowledge. The impact it has received must be less than mine. It can last longer..." Lumian gradually became excited. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the idea of asking the "Knowledge Rabbit" to look at the information and write the "briefing" was feasible. He quickly perfected the corresponding plan: "That rabbit is not very smart, it's stupid, I have to design a table in advance, listing columns such as 'page number', 'strength', 'friendliness', 'ability summary', 'trait points', etc., and let it fill in the columns according to the steps and order. "It's a pity that one person can only summon one 'Rabbit of Knowledge' at a time. Otherwise, if we could summon a dozen or twenty, we could complete the 'Brief Report on the Situation of Spirit World Creatures' before dawn... “One person can only summon one, what if there are more than one person? "I can ask Franca, Janna and Anthony Reid to help me summon one each! “Uh… Rabbits can quickly flip through the information, extract key points, and fill out briefings. People can do the same. Franka, Janna, and Anthony can all help browse the information and quickly extract keywords according to the table columns. "I give knowledge, and they give labor, spirituality and time!" Lumian's eyes became brighter and brighter. He felt that if he carried out according to this plan, even if he took into account the time for frequent rest to recover his mental state and the time for resummoning the "Rabbit of Knowledge", he should be able to produce a "Briefing Report on the Situation of Creatures in the Spirit World" within twelve hours. At that time, he would browse through the briefings that would not affect his spirit, select the twenty or thirty that he thought were suitable, read the original materials in a targeted manner, and make the final decision. The only problem now is that the information about these spiritual beings was given by Ms. "Magician", not in exchange for Lumian's contribution or money. He feels that before "sharing" it with others, he must obtain the consent of the holder of the Major Arcana card. This is basic respect. Lumian did not delay and quickly wrote a letter to inquire about the matter and explained his ideas and plans. Soon, the "Magician" lady responded: "I don't know how to describe your idea for the moment. Maybe you are really suitable for this kind of thinking. "You can share that knowledge with them, but you need to remind them that it is best to skip spiritual creatures that are described as powerful or dangerous. It doesn't matter to you. After all, you have Mr. Fool's seal. It is like a warning sign that can affect the spiritual world, preventing some guys from acting rashly. Others don't have such protection. “In fact, there is a simpler and more convenient way: "You take the information to the Two of Cups and spread them out in every corner of the room. Then ask the Two of Cups to recite the divination phrase repeatedly and throw out three tarot cards or three coins. "You choose the spiritual creature on whichever page they land on. Even if this isn't the most suitable option for you, it's a relatively suitable option that may be useful in some future occasion." Hiss, this is such a weird idea! The “magician” lady is really good at fortune-telling, and her style is completely different from mine… Lumian hadn’t even thought about fortune-telling just now.
After thinking it over, he decided to follow his own plan, because the answers chosen by divination always made him feel light and unreal, and he subconsciously did not want to rely on them. What he has selected based on his own mind and ability will make him more determined and more confident. Unless there is no other way, Lumian still hopes to "browse" the information before making a choice. He burned the reply letter from the "magician" lady and started drawing the form carefully, making only five copies for the time being. Next, he set up the altar and tried to see if he could summon the "Rabbit of Knowledge" more accurately. To this end, the summoning spell he designed is: "A rabbit-shaped spirit wandering in the void, a friendly creature that can communicate, a weak person pursuing knowledge." Lumian did not include the name "Rabbit of Knowledge" because that was a human name for the creatures, not their true, mystical name. After thinking it over several times, Lumian lit the only candle and began to call in his own name. As the spell ended, the candle flame turned dark green and expanded to the size of a human head. A stupid-looking, transparent rabbit-like creature walked out from the dim green candlelight. Seeing that the ceremony was successful, Lumian secretly breathed a sigh of relief and asked with experience: “I want to share your knowledge, but I need your help to extract the key points and fill in the form.” The rabbit's eyes lit up, and it asked back in Lumian's voice and the Trillian-flavored Intis language: “Where is the knowledge?” This was the first time Lumian heard this creature speak, and he didn't expect it to choose to imitate his accent and pronunciation. Lumian opened the metal cabinet and took out a stack of information on spiritual creatures that he had not yet read. He pointed to the table on the table and told the rabbit what needed to be done and what precautions to take, in the same way he would treat someone with a low IQ. The rabbit's long ears gradually drooped down, and it memorized it blankly for a while before nodding slowly. It sat on Lumian's chair and flipped through the documents with its eyes shining brightly. Lumian stood beside it and noticed that although it was reluctant, it still pulled out the paper marked with words such as "powerful" and "dangerous", put it aside, and filled out the form relatively accurately. Even though his brain isn't that great, he still has no problem doing this kind of repetitive work... Compared to what I've seen myself, his speed is at least twice as fast... Lumian nodded with satisfaction and lay down on the bed, preparing to close his eyes and rest while the "Knowledge Rabbit" is busy working to relieve his fatigue. After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly had a premonition of danger and quickly turned over and sat up. He saw that the transparent rabbit had grown to two meters tall, constantly flipping through the information and refining it. "Stop!" Lumian didn't understand what was happening and instinctively stopped the other party from continuing to access that knowledge. The rabbit turned its head and its eyes turned bloodshot. It stared at Lumian for several seconds, then reluctantly stopped its work. Lumian thought for a moment and guessed why there was such a change: As a spiritual creature, the "Rabbit of Knowledge" would also be affected by that knowledge, but to a relatively lesser degree. However, unlike normal humans, it did not have high intelligence and would not stop to rest after an abnormality occurred, unless that would directly endanger its life. With continuous accumulation, it inevitably undergoes a certain degree of alienation.
Phew, it is useful, but a poor brain is a big problem... Lumian ended the summoning and let the "Rabbit of Knowledge" return to the spirit world to slowly recover. He simply washed up, lay down on the bed and prepared to rest. In his drowsiness, Lumian remembered something and woke up with a start. He summoned a "rabbit of knowledge" and copied the form he designed a hundred times. After doing this, he finally felt relieved and fell asleep. ………… The next morning, Lumian, full of energy, went straight to the chaotic street, intending to find Anthony Reid first to ask if the intelligence dealer was willing to help. As soon as he arrived at the door of the Golden Rooster Hotel, he saw a figure walking out of the side alley. It was Baron Brinell, wearing a half-high silk hat, a black suit, and holding a mahogany pipe. "I said I would come to you to thank you for helping me find Ludwig." Baron Brinell explained with a smile, "I didn't expect you to be neither in the Breeze Ballroom nor in the Golden Rooster Hotel." Thank me? Then help me read the materials and write the briefing! Lumian muttered subconsciously, then gave up the idea. Compared to Anthony Reid, the mentally ill intelligence dealer, Baron Brinell is not only a member of the Savoy Party, but his background also seems to be a bit questionable. It is better not to let him find out that his relationship with Franca is not just dependent on Janna. Lumian laughed. "The night is beautiful, what's the point of staying in your room all the time? "How do you want to thank me?" Baron Brinell did not answer directly, but said: "I may not have mentioned that I converted to the 'God of Knowledge and Wisdom' a few years ago." (End of this chapter)
