Chapter 007 Research

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

After careful examination, Raymond recognized that the nine symbols in front were primarily composed of a dozen or so lines interwoven and intersecting with each other

However, currently, these active substances are entering Raymond's body and are improving his constitution every day. The most evident manifestation of this is that Raymond's sleep duration is decreasing.

The astute and capable commander of the guards, Haige, sent two slender and bashful maidservants to attend to Raymond when it was time to camp, but Raymond politely declined their service

What surprised Raymond, however, was the somewhat excessive respect shown to him by everyone in the caravan; wherever he appeared, those who saw him would bow and greet him.

Hagrid's pupils instantly constricted as he turned his gaze towards the rear of the convoy, where a luxurious carriage was several hundred meters away from them

When Raymond studied this book every day, the white light that had once appeared in the book could no longer be seen by him

I don't want to live anymore! I want to die! I'll dig a hole right now and bury you!" With a voice filled with terror, the captain of the guards, Haige, angrily waved his whip, striking the bald man fiercely.

Hey ... ... hey! Put in some more effort!

The nine symbols at the front of the book are relatively simple, so on the second day after Raymond joined the caravan, he successfully made the last symbol on the fourth page appear

Sitting in the car, Raymond looked through the blurred window at Haige leaving, a bitter smile appearing on his face

With a look of some alarm, Hagrid furrowed his brow and hesitated for a moment before saying: "Not just very powerful, but extremely powerful! Because the badge he wears is of a higher rank than that of the old monsters in Black River Valley!"

Not a joke, Hagrid's face was ashen, causing the other guards to fall silent

Accompanied by the creaking sound, a heavily loaded cart filled with grain was gradually pulled up from the large pit. This pit, which appeared in the middle of the road, brought the entire convoy to a standstill

The yellow earth road, measuring several meters in width, has become muddy due to the heavy rain last night

The metaphor among men elicited knowing laughter from all those on horseback

Due to the highly complex composition of this active substance, and according to the detection results from the chip, if the quantity of this active substance reaches a certain level, it poses a serious threat to the human body

The bizarre occurrence was also analyzed logically by Raymond through the chip, concluding that all the symbols in this book do not actually exist on the pages, but rather are a form of visual illusion

The judgment of the chip regarding this active substance in the air is similarly somewhat ambiguous

On the opened pages of the book, the tenth symbol appeared somewhat hazy. Raymond, furrowing his brow, silently reflected: "It seems that gene chips are not omnipotent..."

However, this results in an increase in the number of lines for the tenth symbol, more than doubling the number of lines compared to the previous symbols

With a sharp crack, the suddenly appearing whip struck the bald head of the strong man, leaving a deep blood mark on his scalp

Raymond, who did not understand why he was treated this way, could not rashly inquire about the reasons. He could only try to stay close to his carriage. Unless absolutely necessary, he would hide in the carriage and continue studying that mysterious book.

The thick tome, with its peculiar script on the cover, always appears whenever Raymond opens its pages. Touching it with his hand allows him to feel the uneven texture, and even when Raymond confronts the entire book, trying to memorize these symbols, the book itself seems to emit a faint warmth.

Those ordinary coachmen lacked even the courage to face Raymond directly; they would lower their heads and bend their waists from a distance, only standing up after Raymond had left.

Even though Raymond could clearly see the symbols on the pages of the book, under the recording of the chip, the entire book was nothing but blank pages, without a single line, let alone symbols formed by the gathering of lines

A group of robust men, bare-chested and covered in mud, are singing a chant as they push a large cart that is stuck in the middle of the road

A few people standing by the roadside on horseback are conversing quietly

Yo hey, yo hey! Yo hey, yo hey...

Moreover, while Raymond memorizes these symbols, the chip is capable of detecting trace amounts of active substances in the surrounding air, which are absorbed by Raymond's body simultaneously, thereby enhancing his physical form

The armored captain of the guards, Haige, immediately narrowed his eyes and stared directly at him. Upon seeing this, the bald man shrank his neck and lowered his head in displeasure

After a day of careful observation, if the guards of the caravan looked on with apprehension, then the expressions of the ordinary drivers were filled with fear

It has been ten consecutive days, and the last symbol on this fourth page has suddenly increased in complexity.

"Boss, is that young man in the car really that impressive?" A burly man, raising his fist to reveal his strong biceps, whispered, "Looking at him, he probably hasn't even grown all his hair yet..."

But when it came to remembering the tenth symbol, Raymond fell into anguish

Moreover, the chip provides no assistance in memorizing the symbols in this booklet

After he articulated the demands of his peers yesterday, he received a warm welcome from the caravan, becoming the most esteemed guest in the convoy. The most luxurious and comfortable carriage in the caravan was immediately vacated and transformed into Raymond's private chamber

The book, consisting of only nine pages, became the subject of research during Raymond's journey

This is your final warning: anyone who dares to speak ill of the esteemed wizard in the carriage will face dire consequences! Do not let your foolishness endanger the entire caravan!

Hagrid's deep and solemn roar caused the smiles on everyone's faces to freeze.

He was knocked off the horse by the whip of the horse and the book, and did not dare to wipe the blood from his bald head, yet his face bore a hint of defiance

Hagrid, with fear in his eyes, quickly ran to the center of the convoy with his attendants. After learning that Raymond, who was sitting in the carriage, had finished his breakfast and had not come out again, he once again instructed the knight guarding the carriage to be especially careful in their service and to ensure that they did not disturb the wizard inside. He then rode his horse to the rear of the convoy

Even the bizarre characters resembling reliefs on the cover of the book cannot be found in the records of the chip

However, Raymond also consumed the red fruit from that large tree in the forest, and the improvement in his health was detectable. Therefore, it remains unclear whether it was due to the human-faced red fruit or the active substances in the air that were enhancing his body, as even the chip could not accurately distinguish between the two

A gasp of astonishment

"Uncle Hagrid, is that wizard very powerful?" The attendant who had been following Hagrid closely asked, curious about most of his doubts

The gene chip, possessing only physical logical analysis and memory functions, is powerful enough to observe substances as small as cells; however, it is powerless when it comes to issues such as hallucinations
