Saving the World in an Apocalypse-Style Text Game-Chapter 1177 - 530: Extreme Evil Telepathy Technique, Stone Bao Molybdenum Gold_2

[The White Elephant Demon, unable to be refuted, slightly raised its head and lifted its chin, appearing supremely smug as if it were the number one debater within the three realms. Having answered the examination questions, it asked whether it was qualified to continue attending the lecture.]

[The old scripture master’s face alternated between red and green with frustration, exclaiming, "You bloated monk with a belly full of fallacies and sophistry, still want to attend the lecture? Get out at once!"]

[The old scripture master then turned to you with a kindly expression, "You, monk, on the other hand, are humble and courteous, and may remain to listen to the lecture. The master will preach and impart knowledge to you, and answer your doubts."]

[It was clear that he was giving the White Elephant Demon a hard time, infuriating it to the point where veins throbbed on its forehead and its neck turned red.]

[Just as the White Elephant Demon was about to burst into curses, it caught a covert signal from you...]

[The White Elephant Demon was momentarily stunned, and then it regained its composure, feigning to suppress its anger with a snort and walked out to the door, turning around to stand guard.]

[Seeing it deflated, the old scripture master became even more affable towards you and purposely raised his voice, "Many masters immerse themselves in the Buddhist scriptures daily, gaining various Great Divine Powers."]

[Here are three Divine Powers you can choose from to study; if you have any doubts in your heart, you can also ask him to clarify and resolve them.]

[The three Divine Powers taught by the old scripture master are ’Heavenly Vision,’ ’Divine Foot Technique,’ and ’Telepathy.’]

[’Extreme Evil Divine Eye Technique’ (Special Skill): By learning this skill, you can see the joys and sorrows of life and death of all living beings across the three realms and six paths, and perceive all forms and colors in the world without obstruction. Your chances of finding hidden items and hidden areas will significantly increase.]

[’Extreme Evil Divine Foot Technique’ (Special Skill): By learning this skill, you can move freely at will, and have the ability to appear wherever you desire. Your Shell’s movement speed will conditionally increase by 20% (including flight speed).]

[’Extreme Evil Telepathy Technique’ (Special Skill): By learning this skill, you can know the thoughts of all living beings across the three realms and six paths, and hear the words felt in their hearts. Your interactions with any story character will gain you a partial favorability bonus.]

[Suddenly, from outside the door, the White Elephant Demon sent you a telepathic message...]

[Little junior brother, the Divine Powers taught by this old scripture master are not like the ordinary six powers; they are somewhat special...]

[How curious, how did these commoners come to develop such unusual Divine Powers? Could it be our Bodhisattva’s merit?]

Lin Xun curled his lips, thinking that the Underworld Game might also have played a part.

Faced with the option of choosing one out of three, he decisively chose the last one, ’Telepathy.’

The first option, ’Heavenly Vision,’ was not of much use to him who had the Analysis Power, which could completely replace its function.

And the second option, ’Divine Foot Technique,’ was also superfluous for him.

[The old scripture master raised his hand and bestowed the empowerment upon you...]

[You have now learned the special skill ’Extreme Evil Telepathy Technique’!]

[You weren’t sure if it was your imagination or if the old scripture master was becoming even more affectionate towards you after learning the ’Extreme Evil Telepathy Technique,’ possibly to spite the White Elephant Demon.]

[He took on the demeanor of a true mentor, indicating that you could consult him with any doubts about your studies.]

[Hearing this, your eyebrows raised, and you couldn’t help but think of the ’Stone Treasure Trench’ outside the city. This old scripture master had been in Luoyi for many years; he might know some information.]

[After voicing your doubts, the old scripture master frowned and said, "You obtuse monk, I asked you to raise doubts about your studies, not questions unrelated to it!"]

[The White Elephant Demon outside scoffed and said, "If you don’t know, just admit it, stop putting on airs!"]

[The old scripture master glared angrily and retorted loudly, "You should stop your prattle, there’s nothing in Luoyi city that it does not know of!"]

[Three hundred li south of the city, Stone Treasure Trench is known for producing the precious ’Stone Treasure Molybdenum Gold,’ which when magically integrated into weapons, can unleash infinite power.]

[Upon learning this, Emperor Wu dispatched ten thousand Fire Worship Army soldiers to occupy Stone Treasure Trench, and commandeered the people of Luoyi city and the surrounding dozen counties to mine the vein vigorously, draining it dry within three years.]

[This happened decades ago; it’s not so senile yet as to be ignorant of it!]

[Seeing this, you promptly continued to inquire, if Stone Treasure Trench had been mined dry, did the master know where one could still obtain ’Stone Treasure Molybdenum Gold’?]

[The old scripture master answered without thinking, "I don’t know... ahem, of course, I do!"]

[He glanced at the White Elephant Demon outside and continued, "Of course it knows these minor issues, but just telling you outright would seem like it doesn’t understand the way of a teacher.]

[Thus, go to the Scripture Storing Pavilion behind the lecture hall, turn right to the second row of scriptural cabinets to the west, and on the third shelf from the bottom, you will find a book titled ’Chronicle of the God Capital Counties,’ which records all kinds of events, big and small, from the past to present in Luoyi; you can find the answer by perusing this book.]

[You were not certain if what the old scripture master had just told you was reliable, but with no other lead at the moment, you had to give it a try.]

[For now, you bid farewell to the old scripture master and headed with the White Elephant Demon to the last building behind the lecture hall — the Scripture Storing Pavilion.]

[Upon entering the Scripture Storing Pavilion, there were countless scriptures and volumes, with over a hundred scriptural cabinets each housing thousands of books.]

[However, the Scripture Storing Pavilion seemed to have not been tended to for quite some time, as the smell of decaying paper and pages filled the air, with most of the scriptures and volumes yellowed and deteriorating, pages stuck together, and the writing blurred and indistinct.]
