There is no doubt that the source of the will-o'-the-wisp is the black booklet, but it is impossible for the black booklet to activate independently without the assistance of external force.
It was actually Gleipnir who actually activated it.
While Angel and Laplace were both lost in their own thoughts, Gleipnir saw that no one was paying attention to the black booklet on the ground, so he walked closer to take a closer look.
Simply looking at the cover, Gleipnir really can't tell much.
The cover is pure black and the text is gilded. Except for the characters "Wish Book", there are no other signs.
Gleipnir felt it comprehensively and used astrology to confirm that the booklet was not dangerous and that there would be no problem turning the pages. He then reached out with his cane and opened the wish book.
Just as the wishing book was opened, a light blue will-o'-the-wisp sprang out.
And this is the process of the will-o'-the-wisp being activated.
At this time, both Angel and Laplace came back from their contemplation and focused all their attention on the wish book.
To be precise, it was the first page of the wishing book, and it was also the page that Gleipnir opened.
There was some text written on the first page, but Angel still didn't understand it, but he did recognize the illustrations on the second half of the first page.
Because this illustration depicts light blue will-o’-the-wisps.
The will-o'-the-wisps in the illustration are like sky lanterns floating in the air, densely packed, and combined with the weird facial features on the will-o'-the-wisp, it's quite scary.
Ingres focused on this illustration not just because it depicts a will-o'-the-wisp, but for another very important reason.
This illustration is colorful. In the dark and bluish night sky, the red, green and blue will-o'-the-wisps look very eye-catching.
But what is more eye-catching is a pure white will-o'-the-wisp.
This white will-o'-the-wisp is not specially drawn, it is more like a white will-o'-the-wisp drawn in white, but it has not been filled with color.
Angel could vaguely feel that there was a connection between the will-o'-the-wisp drawn in white and the light blue will-o'-the-wisp in mid-air... It seemed that the will-o'-the-wisp drawn in white originally contained the light blue will-o'-the-wisp.
Could it be that the will-o'-the-wisp is actually hidden in the painting? When the will-o'-the-wisp comes out, will the paintings of the will-o'-the-wisp become white drawings?
While Angel was guessing, Laplace's voice came from the side: "It's true."
Angel looked at Laplace with confusion in his eyes.
Laplace didn't say anything, but came to the light blue will-o'-the-wisp, stretched out his finger and flicked it.
The will-o'-the-wisp seemed to have received a huge impact, and it collapsed directly from mid-air, and its grimace became even more terrifying... But no matter how terrifying it was, it could not avoid the end of collapse.
As the light blue will-o'-the-wisp dissipated, a strange energy escaped from the will-o'-the-wisp, and finally fell back on the illustration on the first page of the wishing book.
The will-o'-the-wisp returns, and the white-drawn will-o'-the-wisp returns to light blue.
The illustrations are complete and there are no gaps.
Seeing this scene, Angel finally confirmed that his guess was correct. The will-o'-the-wisp came out of the illustration.
As for the strange energy just now, Angel was no stranger to it. He had sensed similar energy inside the gem teapot. There was no doubt that it was telepathy.
"So, this is a will-o'-the-wisp summoned from the illustration through telekinesis? Could it be that this booklet is something similar to a magic-patterned leather scroll?" Angel asked in a low voice.
Laplace shook his head: "No, it's essentially different. I actually mentioned this before."
Laplace mentioned before? Angel looked at Laplace in confusion, but saw that her expression was a little subtle... When they found the pamphlet before, Angel noticed that Laplace had a similar expression, which was subtle and weird.
Angel pondered for a moment, then suddenly narrowed his eyes: "Could this thing be... the wonderful thing you mentioned before?"
Laplace nodded slightly.
"Yes, this is a wonderful thing."
Angel was also stunned for a moment. He still remembered that when Laplace first mentioned the world of telekinesis, he immediately mentioned wonderful things, because in Laplace's view, the most interesting thing about the world of telekinesis was Wonderful stuff.
Angel had previously thought that the gemstone teapot was a magical thing, but it turned out not to be the case. Unexpectedly, not long after wandering around, a truly wonderful thing appeared in front of them.
"Wonderful things are concrete abilities, so this book is a concrete form of a mind master?" Angel asked suspiciously.
Laplace nodded: "Yes, the first page contains the general information about the teacher and the rules he set for this wishing book."
Laplace did not hide anything and explained the information on the first page character by character.
This telepathic master did not record his real name on the miraculous thing. He only called himself Star Attendant and was the most loyal attendant of the great 'Wishing Star'.
What follows is a devout prayer to the 'wishing star', hoping that the wishing star can give this wishing book unlimited potential.
Next, there is the rule setting of the wish book by Star Attendant.
The so-called rule setting is the balanced restriction of magical things by the concrete mind master.
They will give special abilities to wonderful things, but it is impossible to directly give special abilities. Corresponding release conditions must be set.
The simpler the ability and the more stringent the conditions, the higher the success rate when creating wonderful things.
But the more demanding it is, the more difficult it is to use the magical thing; the simpler the ability, the weaker the power of the magical thing.
Therefore, this will test the choice of the mind master.
Of course, in addition to trade-offs, it also depends on talent. The more talented a mind master is, the more things he can "take" and the fewer things he has to "give up" in making wonderful things.
In addition, the higher the level of the mind master, the more concrete and wonderful things will be obtained.
Generally speaking, each star can represent a wonderful thing, including 0 stars. In other words, a three-star concrete mind master can manifest four wonderful things.
Any more and it will be difficult to control.
In addition, there are some hidden rules, for example: the higher the star rating, the more powerful the wondrous objects constructed, but generally speaking, the coordination degree is definitely not as high as that of the wondrous objects constructed with low star levels; There are many categories of objects, and the more idealistic they are, the harder it is to construct, but the more idealistic they are, the stronger they are. In addition to the idealistic marvelous objects, other physical marvelous objects, the construction rules will inevitably be hidden in the marvelous objects. This is also for the purpose of the wish book. The building rules are spelled out on the first page...etc.
From this we can see that in the world of telepathy, the concrete category is a very complete system. It requires both the cooperation of objectively existing laws and the restraint of conditions set by subjective initiative.
The power of checks and balances is the essence of wonderful things.
And this wishing book also has corresponding checks and balances, that is, rules.
"Wish Book: Make wishes in writing to obtain different abilities."
"Main rules: 1. You can only make one wish on each page. 2. Each wish must describe the complete ability, the more detailed the better. 3. Only one ability can be used at a time. When using the ability, you need to turn to the corresponding Number of pages. 4. The more complex the ability, the release rules need to be drawn up separately on the page. 5. The abilities that require separate rules to be drawn up can only be used by the Star Server himself."
"The first page, deceiving the will-o'-the-wisp: releases a will-o'-the-wisp that can only be used to scare people. It has a weak burning ability. There is no upper limit for use, and it can be used if you have telekinesis. (There is no need to formulate separate rules for this page, just follow the main rules. )"
"Page 2, Sorry Piranha: Release a piranha to attack. You can summon up to ten piranhas per day. (Limited rules: 1. Before each attack, you will say sorry. 2. Once You can only summon a maximum of 2 piranha flowers. If one piranha flower says sorry, the other one doesn't need to say it.)"
"Page 3, Holy Water of Forgiveness: Make a bottle of holy water to assist in tranquility. You can make up to three bottles per day. (Limited rule: You must obtain the sincere forgiveness or forgiveness of others before you can obtain the right to make holy water)"
"Page 4, ominous ground thorn: Release a powerful ground thorn. There is no upper limit for use. You can use it if you have telekinesis. (Limited rules: There is a 10%-80% chance of creating a small ground thorn under yourself. The released ground thorn The more powerful the thorn is, the higher the probability of small ground thorns appearing.)"
"Page five, the ten-minute golden touch..."
"Page 6, the wall-penetration technique that cannot go back..."
"..."
As Laplace turned page by page, various abilities were displayed in front of everyone through the pages of the book. However, the use of these abilities will set some very strange restrictions.
The stronger the ability, the greater the limitation.
But they don't know to what extent they will be restricted. After all, all the abilities of this wishing book require mind power to be activated.
Originally, there was still a lot of mental power left in the wishing book, but it was almost completely washed away by wave after wave. The remaining trace of thought power disappeared because he turned the first page and summoned the will-o'-the-wisp.
Other energies cannot activate the wish book, and those abilities that draw up separate rules can only be used by the Star Attendant. Therefore, they can only look at the various abilities in the wish book, but they cannot use them.
However, they couldn't use it, so they didn't pay much attention. After all, the abilities in this wishing book look wonderful, but overall... the effects are actually not very good.
…
"Although the abilities in the wishing book don't look very good, the potential of this wishing book is pretty good." Laplace commented lightly and turned to the first page of the wishing book again.
Her eyes looked at the word that had the most ink on the first page: 'Wishing Star'.
"What's wrong?" Gleipnir noticed Laplace's fixed gaze.
After Laplace thought for a moment, he said softly: "I seem to have heard of the wishing star somewhere."
Angel also looked over at this time: "There are similar sayings in many civilizations. Including the wizarding world, there are legends about the wishing star. The wishing star you have heard of is not necessarily the wishing star in the telepathy world."
Laplace thought for a while: "The wishing star in my impression seems not to be a living thing..."
Gleipnir: "If it's not a living being, then Angel should be right."
The Star Attendant claims to be a servant of the great 'Wishing Star'. Judging from this sentence, the 'Wishing Star' is obviously a living being, not a conceptual wishing star.
As for what kind of creature it is? It is very likely that it is the code name of a big shot in the telepathy world, or simply the name of a certain evil god.
The reason why it is said to be an "evil god" is because there is no belief in the true god in the Hante world, and the people there believe more in telekinesis. If there is a belief in some kind of god, it is either pretending to be a god, or it is an imported god, or it may even be a powerful wizard who is causing trouble.
Anyway, if 'Wishing Star' is the name of a god, it is an out-and-out evil god.
However, Angel still prefers that the 'Wishing Star' is a high-ranking star teacher.
People in the Hante world have different naming rules, which all depend on the different cultural heritage of each place. But no matter what the Hante people's real name is, once they become a mind master, they must have a code name. This is a code name given to facilitate communication and memory by national chanting teacher associations.
Just like "Granny Deer", "Flying Crow Man"...etc., they are code names, not real names.
The code names are all kinds of strange, with regional and cultural characteristics, and it is possible that a "wishing star" will appear.
Generally speaking, the code name of a strong person will actually point to his own ability. If "Wishing Star" is used as the code name, maybe the ability of this mind master is... wishing?
"What the wishing star refers to is not yet certain, but this "Star Attendant" can see some clues from this wishing book." Greipnir said softly.
As Laplace said, the potential of this "wishing book" is high.
Although the ability currently recorded is not very good, it can be determined from the main rules that the upper limit of this ability is extremely high. Of course, the higher the ability you get, the more restrictions you have, but this is very common in wonderful things, so it doesn’t matter; the wishing book can unlock more powerful abilities from low to high, which is the key and it is The reason for the high potential.
Being able to create something wonderful with such potential shows that the potential of Star Attendant itself is definitely not low.
However, potential is potential, and failing to realize it is another matter.
This wishing book currently only contains fifteen pages, and has not yet unlocked powerful abilities. This also means that the Star Attendant is not strong enough and must not be a high-level Star Mind Master.
Take another look at the ability on the first page of this wishing book: deceive the will-o'-the-wisp.
This ability is almost non-existent. The harmless will-o'-the-wisp can only deceive the audience in the circus. Even the slightly ambitious mind master will not record this kind of crotch-stretching ability.
Judging from this ability, it can be determined that this wonderful thing should be the first wonderful thing of Star Attendant.
It is a work of enlightenment.
Combined with other abilities such as alchemy, wall penetration, etc., as well as various known information, it can be basically inferred that the Star Server is not rich, weak in strength, has some cleverness, and does not have a strong background. Compared with the front Combat prefers side bluffing. The only thing that can be said is that he is a potential telepathy master, and his strength should be a one-star telepathy master.
And the most important thing is: this Star Waiter...should be the boy in the pot they discovered before.
The previous inferences were profiling, but the last conclusion was discovered by Gleipnir through astrology.
According to Gleipnir, the telepathic aura remaining on this wishing book is completely consistent with the telepathic information remaining in the body of the boy in the pot.
There is a high probability that the boy in the pot is the Star Attendant.
Of course, no clear answer can be given yet. After all, astrology is only a vague certainty and cannot be used as evidence.
However, it is not difficult to come up with a conclusion.
There is this article in the main rule of the wishing book: "Abilities that require separate rules can only be used by the Star Attendant himself."
Whether the boy in the pot is the Star Attendant or not, you will find out if you let him use this wishing book in the future. If he can use the abilities from the second page onwards, he will undoubtedly be Star Attendant!
