Chapter 188: Spells and Star Maps
Library No. 1? !
Wang Xiaoming looked astonished. He was very familiar with this place. He once went to No. 1 Warehouse every day for half a month to identify supernatural ghosts in order to digest the appraiser's potion.
It has powerful supernatural suppression power and can suppress thousands of ghosts without any solution. It is a supernatural place in the real world.
And when he was forging coffin nails, the supernatural power he used was suspected to have the same origin as No. 1 Library. It came from the power of a ghost controller from a thousand years ago. However, it was too long ago and the ghost controller could no longer be found. No information about ghosts.
Thinking of this, Wang Xiaoming looked at Mr. Qin and asked: "I remember that Mr. Qin recommended Warehouse No. 1 to the headquarters. I wonder if you know the origin of Warehouse No. 1?"
Mr. Qin shook his head and said: "My knowledge about No. 1 Warehouse is limited. I only know that it is a man-made place related to ancient ghost controllers."
Wang Xiaoming was slightly disappointed when he didn't get the answer he wanted. He looked around and found nothing else, and then ordered Zhou Tong:
"Return to the real world!"
After the lights were switched and the space was wrinkled, they returned to the sunny real world.
After a few words of greeting with Cao Yanhua and others waiting outside, Wang Xiaoming took the supernatural taxi and left.
On the way back, he recalled the changes in space during the journey. Every change seemed to contain the beauty of knowledge, which made him involuntarily indulged in it. Unknowingly, his understanding of space and ghost realm was rapidly improving. .
After returning to the underground laboratory, sitting in front of the workbench, Wang Xiaoming suddenly thought: "Maybe I can transform the ability to travel through supernatural places into a spell. In this way, I may be able to feel more spatial changes."
With his years of research on shuttle ability, it is not difficult to transform it into a spell, it just takes some time.
Just when Wang Xiaoming was thinking about where to start, his phone rang, and it was Pang Dong calling.
"There should be news about contacting the Observatory." Wang Xiaoming thought to himself, and answered the phone. As expected, it was about the Observatory.
In the morning, after receiving the ceremony to be promoted to Sequence Five Astronomer, he sent Pang Dong to help him contact the observatory and borrow an astronomical telescope.
Pang Dong borrowed the name of the headquarters and settled the matter without much effort.
Now Wang Xiaoming can go to Bulaotun Observatory at any time and use the professional equipment there for stargazing.
"It's daytime now. It's time to study spells first and then go to the observatory when it's night."
After hanging up the phone, Wang Xiaoming made a decision in his mind. The best time for stargazing is from nine o'clock in the evening to three o'clock in the morning. Going to the observatory now is a waste of time. It is better to study magic in the laboratory and wait until dark.
Then he released the supernatural taxi that had been stored in the wilderness of knowledge and began to reverse the shuttle ability.
He was already familiar with the shuttle ability, so the process of converting it into a spell was very smooth, but because this ability was too complicated, it could not be completely converted in a short time.
The time came to half past nine in the evening,
A dilapidated taxi parked in a remote corner near Bulaotun Observatory. As soon as the car parked, Zhou Tong got out of the driver's seat, jogged to the other side and opened the rear door.
After Wang Xiaoming got out of the car, he changed hands and took the supernatural taxi back to the wilderness of knowledge. Fortunately, it was night and the location was remote, so no one noticed it, otherwise Gao Luo would have been on the morning news.
As soon as they arrived at the observatory gate, they saw a fat figure pacing back and forth at the gate. When he saw Wang Xiaoming and the two, he immediately trotted forward and asked:
"Is this Professor Wang Xiaoming?"
"I am."
Wang Xiaoming stepped forward and responded.
"Great, Professor Wang, please come with me." The fat figure introduced: "I am Ding Hao, the observer here. You can just call me Xiao Ding."
Under the leadership of Ding Hao, they successfully entered the observatory. Because they had agreed to borrow an astronomical telescope, Ding Hao led them directly to the observation room.
The observation room is very spacious, and the most eye-catching thing is the huge astronomical telescope standing in the middle. The white tube is like a white sword shooting into the starry sky.
As soon as he entered the observation room, Ding Hao began to continuously introduce the functions and usage of the machines. Wang Xiaoming followed him and briefly walked through the machines in the observation room, then asked Ding Hao to demonstrate the operation.
Most of the equipment here is very professional, and many operations are very complicated, especially adjusting the various parameters of the astronomical telescope, which is a test of memory.
However, these were not problems for Wang Xiaoming. After following Ding Hao's operations several times, he completely mastered the techniques.
So when Wang Xiaoming controlled the astronomical telescope alone and started observing the starry sky, Ding Hao was shocked. It was hard for him to imagine that there were people with such strong learning ability in the world.
Soon the night passed, and Wang Xiaoming said goodbye to Ding Hao and returned to the headquarters.
After this night of observation, he collected a lot of information. He only needed to visit the observatory three or four more times, and he could roughly draw the starry sky, and then he could activate the magic potion of the Sequence Five astronomers.
Back at the headquarters, Wang Xiaoming did not go directly to rest. Although he had not slept all night, he still looked energetic and started forging supernatural weapons every day.
The ghosts forged into supernatural weapons not only make it easier to imprison them, but can also become weapons for the ghost controllers at the headquarters, helping them to imprison ghosts in supernatural incidents.
So even if the craftsman's potion has been completely digested, he has not stopped forging the ghost.
At present, all the evil spirits in the headquarters' inventory have been transformed into usable spiritual weapons. The ones he is forging now are those that the headquarters just purchased from all over the world yesterday.
Now he has forged more than 1,500 spiritual weapons, most of which are sealed in the No. 1 warehouse and the newly built No. 2 warehouse, and a small number are listed on the exchange list for the headquarters' ghost riders to exchange.
After forging all the evil spirits sent by the headquarters today into spiritual weapons, Wang Xiaoming began to reverse the shuttle ability and transform it into extraordinary spells.
As for other research, he was temporarily pushed to the back.
In this way, he forged spiritual weapons during the day, researched and created spells, and observed the stars at night and drew star maps.
After three consecutive days, the drawing of the star map is nearing completion, and the transformation of the spell is only the last step away.
In the underground laboratory, Wang Xiaoming is taking this last step.
He took out the magic dust that he had prepared long ago, and gently raised it. The spirituality in his body outlined complex runes, and he opened and closed his mouth to recite the spell.
Magic dust quickly gathered in midair, forming a portal as high as a person.
The spell to travel through the spiritual land was successful!
As long as you pass through the portal, you can reach the spiritual land.
Wang Xiaoming smiled slightly, and the busyness of these days finally paid off.
With his spiritual vision and eyes of peeping into the secrets fully opened, he saw the folds of space again, as well as the dead and empty spiritual land opposite the portal.
Then he took a step and walked into the portal.
Wang Xiaoming felt a flash in front of his eyes, and the scene changed. He instantly appeared on the dim plain of the spiritual land.
The scene here is exactly the same as the last time he came to see it, without any changes.
Walking in the spiritual land, Wang Xiaoming had a completely different feeling from the last time he took a car.
The air here is very turbid, but there is oxygen that humans rely on for survival, so there is no problem with normal breathing.
The air is filled with a faint mist, which is light gray. If you don't look far away, you won't notice this gray mist at all.
The gravity is no different from that on Earth, as if this is just a corner of the real world.
The most eye-catching thing is the ground, which is very hard and flat, and does not look like it was formed naturally.
Wang Xiaoming made a simple measurement of the ground and found that the ground of this plain seemed to have been polished, without any bumps and bumps, like a huge flat plate.
"This plain must be caused by extraordinary power, but it is not clear whether it is caused by people or ghosts." Wang Xiaoming made a guess about this mysterious place.
"Unfortunately, except for the ghost mountain in the distance, there are not many things worth exploring here, not even a ghost."
Slightly disappointed, Wang Xiaoming took a last look at this place, used the shuttle spell again, and returned to the real world.
Interestingly, because he did not stand in the starting position when he came back, after returning to the real world, Wang Xiaoming appeared in the corridor outside the laboratory and was seen by several experimenters under his command.
"Hello, professor!"
"Hello, Professor Wang!"
Wang Xiaoming's sudden appearance startled several people, but after seeing that it was Professor Wang, they accepted it quickly and came forward to greet him.
The experimenters who had done experiments with him all knew that he was a ghost rider with strong special abilities, so after seeing some strange things, these experimenters would make up their own minds and get used to it.
Wang Xiaoming nodded calmly and turned back to his private laboratory.
The little setbacks just now did not distract him. At this moment, he was still thinking about the discovery of the spiritual land just now.
"It seems that not every spiritual land is dangerous and has evil spirits."
He had just stayed in the plain of the spiritual land for a long time, but he did not attract an evil spirit.
"Humans still know too little about the spiritual land. When the ability to shuttle is popularized in the future, the mystery of the spiritual land will definitely be solved."
"As for the shuttle spell, I saw more spatial changes in this physical shuttle, which also has a direction for the optimization of the shuttle spell in the future."
Just as Wang Xiaoming was summarizing the experience of this shuttle in the spiritual land, the monitoring center cut out the video of Wang Xiaoming's disappearance and reappearance as a backup.
Because Wang Xiaoming often tests the abilities of evil spirits and some strange ideas in the laboratory, his laboratory has a special mark in the monitoring center.
As long as you are doing experiments, even if there are unusual changes, don't rush to sound the alarm.
Late that night, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
In one of the observation rooms of the Bulaotun Observatory.
Wang Xiaoming was drawing a star map based on the observation results just now. Ding Hao and Zhou Tong wanted to help, but he refused because this ritual required him to complete it alone.
Only in this way can the effect of the ritual be maximized.
It was one o'clock in the morning and the night was thick.
Zhou Tong yawned. After working non-stop for many days, his body as a ghost driver was a little bit unbearable.
"I really don't know what the professor's body is made of? He only sleeps a few hours a day like nothing happened."
Looking at Wang Xiaoming who was still concentrating on drawing, Zhou Tong sighed in his heart.
"Instant noodles are here!"
Just then, Ding Hao came in from outside with a plate on which three bowls of instant noodles were soaked. As the instant noodles entered the room, a unique aroma of instant noodles spread throughout the room.
Ding Hao first placed the instant noodles on the table near the door, and then said, "Professor Wang, come and eat something first!"
"You guys eat first, I'll be ready soon." Wang Xiaoming replied without even raising his head.
At this time, Wang Xiaoming had no time to eat instant noodles, because there was only one corner left of the star map, and it was about to be completed.
With the friction between the pen tip and the paper, a new galaxy was born in Wang Xiaoming's hands.
Ding Hao, who was watching Wang Xiaoming's actions, was a little curious why he didn't use a computer to draw, but had to use such a thankless method as hand-drawing.
He had also recommended computer drawing to Wang Xiaoming at the beginning, but he was not accepted by the other party in the end.
On the other side, with the last stroke, the star map that took four days was finally completed.
At the moment the star map was completed, Wang Xiaoming felt that his spirituality was vaguely connected with the star map in front of him. He had no doubts about this, because he knew that this was a sign of the success of the ceremony.
With this connection, this star map will become his help in the next promotion to Sequence Five.
This is the perception ability he got when he obtained the star map ceremony, which can perceive the progress of the ceremony.
This is also the reason why he rejected the computer drawing recommended by Ding Hao, because the computer drawing did not cause the ritual reaction and could not complete the promotion ceremony.
Wang Xiaoming smiled as he put away the star map. The ritual was complete, and all that was left was to take the Sequence 5 Astronomer's potion.
At this point, he was not in a hurry. He walked to the dining table at the door, and the three of them ate instant noodles together before saying goodbye to Ding Hao and leaving the observatory.
There was no conversation along the way. The spirit taxi went through mountains and waded through water, ignoring the terrain, and returned to the headquarters in less than 20 minutes.
After the spirit taxi entered the monitoring range of the headquarters, it was discovered by the spirit detector, but when the monitoring center found that it was a spirit taxi, it directly cancelled the alarm.
Because they knew that the spirit taxi had become Professor Wang Xiaoming's travel vehicle, and this was Professor Wang's return.
After getting off the car, Wang Xiaoming took back the spirit taxi, said goodbye to Zhou Tong, and returned to his residence, and went straight to the spell room on the second floor.
According to the steps of the promotion ceremony in his mind, he spread the star map he had just drawn on the open ground, and then stood on it barefoot.
Closing his eyes and raising his consciousness, Wang Xiaoming saw the towering black tower again.
'Astronomer's potion. ' He shouted in his heart, and as if hearing his desire, a blue meteor fell from the tower, crossed the sky, and landed on Wang Xiaoming's eyebrows.
