I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

Seeing Lloyd approaching, the little cat meowed in a milky voice, curled up like a ball of fur, and looked aggrieved, scared, and pitiful.

But it still didn't run or hide, and still huddled on top of the box, as if this place was very important to it.

"Huh? You also have your persistence and stubbornness?"

Lloyd asked a little funny, then activated his inspiration and activated his spiritual vision. He first looked inside the box, then reached out and patted it, feeling the solid feel.

At first glance, there was nothing wrong with the box itself. It was empty inside, but there were various black engine oils remaining, as if it was used to pack large mechanical equipment.

But that’s weird in itself…

This type of box that contains large equipment is generally not re-nailed, but is directly dismantled, not to mention that it is nailed so tightly that you can't even see what's inside without using your spiritual vision;

Moreover, the cost of such large wooden boxes is not low, and they are unlikely to be piled randomly in small alleys in residential areas.

But if you look at it from another angle...

"Piling up these boxes that seem to contain some good things in such a mixed place, doesn't it deliberately arouse other people's curiosity? What's the purpose of this? It can't be an 'unboxing live broadcast', right?"

Lloyd briefly analyzed it, then scattered a few strands of inspiration as thin as a hair, and carefully inspected every detail inside and outside the box.

Sure enough, in the area in front of where the little milk cat was lying, his inspiration sent a clear burning sensation, as if his fingers were about to touch a flame.

"Something is wrong here? But I can't see anything with my spiritual vision?"

Lloyd whispered to himself again.

[Spiritual Vision] As a specific application method of inspiration, it is mainly used to see things that are originally invisible. However, if the thing itself is invisible and invisible, just like air, then spiritual vision cannot see it, so you must use inspiration to see it. You can discover it by touching it bit by bit.

But this is very troublesome and dangerous. It is easy for inspiration to come into contact with things that 'should not be touched'.

If it weren't for this strange little milk cat, Lloyd wouldn't have been able to climb to such a high place and take the risk to check it bit by bit with inspiration.

"Shadowless and invisible means that this is some kind of unique spirituality that cannot be observed with the naked eye. This should be the psychic object I am looking for, but..."

"Am I going to carry such a big wooden box back and use it for divination? Are you crazy? I'm not a young fitness guy with brute strength..."

Lloyd was feeling troubled by this problem, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, and he remembered the omen he had received during his previous divination.

He then took out the box of matches, lit one, and threw it in front of the little cat.

"Meow meow!"

The little milk cat was startled and quickly took a few steps back, but still refused to leave the box.

Crackling~

There was a soft sound of burning in the air, but it was not the wooden box in front of him, but something invisible was ignited.

After a few seconds, a strange scorch mark appeared on the surface of the wooden box. It was messy and unattractive, like a ball of wool that a cat likes to play with, but it also exuded an indescribable weird feeling, creating a sense of strangeness in the air. It gave Lloyd a somewhat familiar atmosphere.

He felt as if he had entered a ritual, and the atmosphere in the air was somewhat similar to the cell where monsters were executed.

Lloyd turned his head and looked around, and found that the place had become silent without realizing it. The noisy atmosphere of the city had disappeared without a trace. In his ears, he could only hear his own breathing and heartbeat, which were intensifying. .

The surrounding light suddenly became very dark, as if the sun had suddenly set, and the vision was dim. Only the big round eyes of the little milk cat could be seen flickering.

Then, a faint murmuring sound began to come from Lloyd's ears, his eardrums and skin began to tingle again, and his vision gradually became blurred.

Oops, could I have fallen into some dangerous ritual?

Lloyd suddenly panicked. Fortunately, with the help of [Dizziness Resistance], he didn't feel dizzy or lose his ability to think.

So he quickly reached out to the complex pattern, trying to erase it in order to escape the influence of the ritual.

This is not the solution taught by the professor in the book or in his mind, it is just his instinctive reaction.

But just when his fingers touched those messy lines, they suddenly came to life, like slender black nematodes, actively wrapped around his fingers, then pierced his skin and penetrated In his flesh and blood.

Lloyd quickly mobilized his spiritual power to resist, controlled his spiritual power, and ran over the worms.

These nematodes were much more fragile than expected. They broke out as soon as they came into contact with his spiritual power, and then quickly dissipated without leaving any trace or residue.

It seemed to have been evaporated, and it also seemed to be dissolved in his spiritual power.

"Uh... it should be settled?"

Lloyd closed his eyes forcefully, and when he opened them again, the light around him became brighter again, and the noise of the market could be heard again in his ears.

The pattern on the top of the box also disappeared completely.

Everything seems to be back on track?

"Huh~ It's so dangerous..."

Lloyd sighed in a low voice.

But as soon as he finished speaking, there was a buzzing sound in his ears.

The small murmurs that should have disappeared sounded again, still vague, but a little more clear than before.

Then, he felt that there seemed to be something more in his head, which was causing waves of tingling sensations. Although it was not to the point of a splitting headache, it still made him extremely uncomfortable.

But these abnormalities only lasted for a second and then suddenly disappeared.

Then, the prompt from the panel came to Lloyd's ear:

[Ding~Insanity value +500, skill fragments +1]

what? !

This was definitely something he didn't expect.

500 insanity value means that those executors whose average [rationality] is less than 5 points can instantly fall into madness.

Lloyd had no idea that he would encounter such a dangerous situation when he went out to find a psychic.

Fortunately, I usually work hard enough and my basic attributes are high enough, so I can turn danger into safety and turn danger into gain.

What about this skill fragment?

Could it be an evil ability only used by those evil forces?

Lloyd didn't think too much. Before the skills were spelled out, it was useless to think about it.

He turned around, looked out at the entrance of the alley where people were coming and going, and sighed in a low voice:

"If I hadn't come here by chance, I can't even imagine what the consequences would have been... Is the Brilliant City really a place where I can live and work in peace and contentment?"

Newbie, new book, please read it~
