Outside Lake Manor.
A shadow squirmed as if it had a life of its own, and finally turned into a staggering figure.
She covered her shoulders and could clearly see the blood flowing between her fingers.
"Damn it...why do the Notting Hill family have that kind of potion? Are they connected to the Secret Service?!"
"If I hadn't practiced the nameless technique before, happened to discover shadow sneaking, and fixed it through a ritual, I might have been shot to death today and died in the hands of a group of mortals... This is really ironic!"
The voice came from under the cloak, it was a young woman.
"When I recover from my injuries, next time... I will let them know what real pain and despair is!"
Looking back at the manor, there was unconcealable sadness and anger in the woman's voice, and she was about to leave.
Suddenly, her body began to tremble violently. The previous gunshot wounds could not make her frown, but at this time, she seemed to be enduring extremely severe pain.
The shadow is no longer her guardian now, but has become a fatal danger.
In the surrounding darkness, there seemed to be countless tentacles moving, trying to drag her body into some unknown dimension.
"Please..."
The woman spoke with difficulty, trying to save herself and pronounce the name of the existence she believed in.
But her voice has become extremely muffled and she cannot pronounce clear syllables.
She fell down with despair on her face, and shadows seemed to be reviving in her body.
"Light!"
Just then, she heard a word in the ancient Sumerian language.
Pure white and dazzling light emerged, covering her whole body.
While bringing extreme pain, it also dispels the darkness.
The figure of a mature woman appeared in front of her eyes and exclaimed: "Jasmine... what's wrong with you?"
Jasmine felt relieved and fainted.
"The Lake family is over?"
Julie looked at the Lake Manor not far away, thoughtfully: "Jasmine is the executioner of the Lake family. It seems that the Notting Hill family has hidden a lot of power..."
"Now is not the time to discuss this. The fait accompli cannot be changed... We need to find a way to save Jasmine."
In the darkness, a shadow spoke: "The gunshot wound on her shoulder is just a minor matter, but because of the physical damage and mental instability, the pollution in the body has intensified... Your nameless technique is only a temporary suppression, and the subsequent treatment will It would be very troublesome.”
"After all... we have lost the 'Doctor' forever!"
"No, we still have one, uh, half a person!" Ms. Julie said with bright eyes.
…
Whisperer Bar.
office.
Zhong Shenxiu looked at the anxious Julie in front of him and scratched his head: "What did you say?"
He looked at the desk in front of him. There was a roll of handwritten paper on it, which was part of the knowledge about the spiritual world.
In addition, Julie also presented him with a blood wine recipe called ‘Bloody Cure’, as well as a large amount of spiritual materials.
"One of my companions is injured, and I need your help... to prepare the 'bloody cure'... I know this is a formula that can only be tried by the official 'Extraordinary', and it makes it difficult for you, but I still want you to try it. , In terms of remuneration..."
Julie said quickly.
"This formula and these spiritual materials are enough." Zhong Shenxiu smiled slightly: "After all... I am already an 'Extraordinary'."
"What?" Julie's voice suddenly raised an octave, with a mixture of surprise and ecstasy on her face: "Oh my god... your talent is so amazing... great, Jasmine is saved!"
"But...I need to know what's going on."
Zhong Shenxiu asked calmly: "The bloody cure seems to be to stabilize the mind and treat some kind of pollution..."
"Yes..." Julie put away her surprise at this time and said with a wry smile: "The spiritual world is very dangerous. During the years of exploration by the mysterious man, a little bit of pollution and madness will continue to penetrate our unprotected spiritual bodies. , causing a certain mental impact, so most mysterious people are not mentally stable and need regular treatment..."
"There was originally a doctor in our circle, but then he died, and no one could stably provide extraordinary-level potions... This is the case with Jasmine. Originally, she could barely survive by reducing her exploration of the spiritual world, but today she was taken over by the Notting Hill family. The gunman was injured, and her physical health would affect her mental stability. As a result, the pollution in her body increased and she was on the verge of losing control..."
"Notting Hill family, why did you hurt her?" Zhong Shenxiu vaguely guessed something, and almost wanted to whistle to show that it had nothing to do with him.
"This is a big event that just happened. The Notting Hill family raided the Lake family's mansion...I forgot to mention that Jasmine is the Lake family's executioner," Julie said.
Anyway, the Lake family was destroyed, and she didn't care about leaking some intelligence information.
"So that's it."
Zhong Shenxiu nodded. The mysterious circle was very hidden, but also very small. They had to pretend to be ordinary people during the day.
It's not surprising that there is a mysterious person among the gangs.
"Different Extraordinaries have different specialties. We have already chosen a path, and we are not sure about blending blood wine. As an apprentice, you have a very small chance of success, so I brought a few extra materials. Now it seems , the stars of fate are still favoring me..." A relaxed smile broke out on Julie's face: "You, the 'Extraordinary', are very confident that you can prepare the 'Bloody Cure'!"
"Let me try!"
Zhong Shenxiu nodded in agreement and immediately looked at Julie.
"I understand that you need a quiet environment, and maybe you don't like others staring at you."
Julie nodded, walked out of the office, and stood guard outside the door.
The door closed slowly.
Zhong Shenxiu did not look at the bloody cure formula, but directly opened the spiritual world codex.
"The spiritual world is very dangerous. Not to mention those special symbols and the occasional glances from great beings. Even if we only stay in the spiritual world for a long time, our spiritual bodies will continue to suffer subtle effects..."
On the paper, there seemed to be summaries from different people, which together constituted advice to newcomers.
In addition, there are some descriptions that seem to be excerpted from different classics, which Zhong Shenxiu finds very interesting.
'The dark gates form a wall, guarding the world...'
'Under the pale sun, the soul is extremely hungry and thirsty, and only the drink that soaks the heart and spleen can relieve it...'
‘The red river is mighty and mighty, where will it flow in the end? be careful! The souls washed away can only stay in the abyss of hell forever...'
"These three lines are obviously excerpts, and seem to describe some of the secrets of the road and promotion..."
Zhong Shenxiu ran his fingers across a few lines of text, thoughtfully.
He moved his eyes downward and saw another line of small words - 'Excerpted from "Sleepwalking Chronicles"'.
