World Occult User Guide

It was already three o'clock in the morning when I left the pharmacy. Lin An's watch showed that it only lasted about thirty minutes from meeting the herbalist to the completion of the ceremony.

What a quick connection.

On the way back to the hotel, Lin An checked the "Communication with Developers" of the Ranger system. No one noticed that he had gone to Mbambuka town this morning.

The first report came from the dedicated Meyer, who said the plan to relocate the rainforest tribes was well underway.

Under the leadership of Apu, the first batch of 500 tribesmen successfully crossed the Kuba River and came to Mbambuka, where they were placed on the third to fifth floors of the hotel.

The second report came from Misulu. He recruited the black cat who performed well in the raid and made him one of the team captains in the army. He had just set out to find trouble with the black boss Mbambuka.

Lin An asked him to proceed with caution. There are 800,000 people in Mbambuka city and 300,000 in the suburbs. According to the current awakening ratio of "Comes", there are about 100 mysterious people hidden here.

Regardless of the radiation value and rating, the mysterious person's methods are weird and unpredictable due to different spiritual media. Misulu has just come into contact with the world of "Comoth", so he should be careful in everything.

When I was young, I was very cautious. Whenever I encountered a conflict, I would hide and hide. I would only tentatively contact other mystics when I was sure everything was safe, let alone you who have no foundation at all. Lin An warned.

Misuru replied: Really? I do not believe……

Lin An was sweating a little when he saw another message from him.

"As a qualified hunter, I understand that only by knowing your prey well enough can you ensure a safe return after every hunt. Although I always have the fear of death every time I hunt, what I really want is to take my prey with me afterwards. Come back and be reunited with my family.

He actually said the same thing as his father.

Lin An wanted to make a joke, but for some reason he couldn't think of a word.

Just like every time I face Lin Hainan, I have a thousand words in my heart, but in the end I always respond with silence.

Misulu has its own sense of proportion.

Lin An moved the data aside. The slope of the low mountain at his feet gradually stabilized, and the outline of the Lambridge Hotel appeared.

After choosing an inconspicuous road back to the office, Lin An did not rush into the daily routine of deciphering documents. He fell down on the sofa and examined the "prophet inheritance" he had received not long ago.

The knuckles of the Creator God’s fingers…

It was the first time for Lin An to obtain such a large ancient artifact.

According to Zai's introduction, the sorcerer nganga of [Four Living Gods] inherited the finger of "conception". The word comes from vanga, which means "making" and can be translated as "operator".

Zai introduced to Lin An that "witches" can cast spells through the incantation n'kisi or some kind of material thing inhabited by a soul as an intermediary.

They are also known as herbalists, who usually perform healing spells, but also know some divination and prophecy spells.

Unsurprisingly, the "Wizard" should be a mysterious person who is the medium of the God of Farming.

The "earthly" successor of the second finger is chief mfumu, who can control a representative staff called mvwala, which can defeat witchcraft or "separate" evil in people's hearts.

Unlike other heirs, the chief cannot be tainted with magic and charms.

His awakening ritual was an interesting one, requiring the killing of one of his closest nephews, and according to classical ethnographic records, chieftainship was always associated with the murder of kanda clan members, so the person who aspired to the throne could use it to prove his authority.

Do you want to choose between "War Emperor" or "Presiding Judge"?

Since Chisediq is the "chief", Lin An hopes that this finger will be more inclined to be the "presiding judge" rather than the "war emperor". The former only has excellent combat power, but the latter has the power to control puppets and mobilize the army.

Once a war breaks out, the mystery of the War Emperor can easily cause indelible losses to Lin An's forces.

Tshisedik is the Bantu president. Although the number of mystics under his command is unknown, the number of active soldiers available on the international official website is more than 134,000.

If they were all turned into puppets...

Lin An is really no match.

As for the heirs of the third finger, whom Zai calls "witch ndoki," they hold the intersection of the standards of life and death.

The word ndoki comes from the Bantu root word loka, which refers to the wisdom and knowledge shared by chiefs and witches. This power does not inherently represent evil.

According to the text cited by the southern folklorist Monzeller, "A witch is a hermit or wanderer who possesses hidden knowledge. Their rich knowledge enables them to master the secret use of magic power makani, and the person chosen by them will become a witch. of the same kind.”

Listening to his description, Lin An felt that witches were either "mothers of desire" or "seekers of knowledge", which matched his mysterious encyclopedia very well.

It is a pity that this generation of witches died at the hands of Zysedik, and her fingers were also taken away.

The last of the [Four Living Gods] is the Prophet, who inherits the finger pointing to "Hades" and holds the power to reveal hidden things.

Unlike the first three, he casts spells without the help of herbs, magical rituals or Enkis charms. This finger gives him the result of the incarnation of divinity and is Nzambi's most hidden gnosis.

Zai's description is very vague, and Lin An feels that the "prophet" medium is a "prophet" or "visionary".

The two mediums are the most idealistic.

After clearing his thoughts, he groped towards the shrinking and expanding, energy-flowing, hazy aura.

It is difficult to describe in words this thing that only exists in the spirit. It has no specific shape, just like a window with the curtains drawn, and there is endless knowledge on the other side.

So far, the "construction" of the windows is not complete.

Speaking of which, in addition to the eyeball in the middle, the historical pattern of the [All-Seeing Eye] also has a base with a raised palm and spread fingers.

The Hand of Miriam, also called the Hand of Fatima...

Maybe I can use the fingers of the Creator God Enzambi to perfect this legendary omniscient and omniscient [All-Seeing Eye].

Just thumbs up... no way to get it.

Lin An spent nearly an hour testing and confirmed that the finger was a genuine "antique" just like the Holy Shroud.

There was still one question nagging at his mind.

Did Zai give him one of the most precious treasures of the [Four Living Gods] so easily?

It is true that there was an unspoken understanding between the two. After receiving the prophet's finger, Lin An had no choice but to become an undying enemy with Zisedic, and had no other choice.

For the remnants of the [Four Living Gods] who are desperate and almost destroyed, relying on Lin An's power is the best choice.

But he always felt that Zai was too good.

Lin An, who couldn't believe it, used the [Blessing of the Original Incarnation] from "The Encyclopedia of Magic, Volume 1", chose "free will", and reconsidered his previous doubts.

There is no problem with the logic of Zai's actions. I myself have not been misled by the "prophet", and my finger does belong to the ancient relic of the "Goddess with the Lamp"...

Am I really thinking too much?

After finishing the blessing, Lin An frowned.

Zai remained silent from beginning to end, as if he didn't care about Lin An's subtle distrust, until the latter took the initiative to ask a question.

"Brother Pastor, do I have to go to that pharmacy every day to accept your ritual to perfect this finger of creation that points to Hades?"

"That's right, for six days." Zai finally said.

"Why can't you give it to me all at once?"

"In order to prevent Zysedik from opening the treasure of the [Four Living Gods], I specially divided my 'prophet' finger into seven parts to make it more difficult to perfect his godhood."

It made sense, and Lin An had no way to refute it.

So, he went to the pharmacy every morning for a week and received part of the "prophet finger" amidst the singing of herbalists and assistants.

Finally, on the seventh day, the inheritance ceremony was completed.

The fingers of the God of Creation are pure "Comes" energy, like a large library filled with all kinds of knowledge. Each collection can correspond to a certain mystical principle of Bangtu or central Southland.

After learning them all, I will probably become an encyclopedia of Bantu mysteries. Lin An thought that when opening the tree diagram in the future, he would no longer have to see question marks.

Unfortunately, the antique "Lamp Lady" has been absorbed by the prophet, and now only an empty shell of knowledge remains.

Lin An slept in that night. When he opened the window in the morning, he unexpectedly saw a foggy scene with traces of heavy rain everywhere.

The strange thing is that he clearly heard the light rain falling outside last night.

The Bantu sun is so fierce that all moisture at this level can evaporate within three or four hours of the morning.

"Quack."

The red frog gave a loud cry and jumped from the window frame to the wall. Lin An blinked, and the scene seemed to be familiar.

The Bantu ecosystem is thriving, and even in Mbambaka's modern hotel, he often encounters frogs, poisonous snakes, monkeys, lizards, spiders and other animals throughout the room.

They have lived next to humans for millions of years.

Maybe it’s not so strange.

After watching the red frog disappear, Lin An closed the window screen, turned on the light, poured water, and turned on the computer.

In the past few days, he has developed a fixed biological clock. He goes to the pharmacy in the morning, handles "communication with developers" information in the morning, studies Nzambi's fingers at noon, deciphers chamber of commerce documents in the afternoon, and inspects six major departments in the evening.

Misulu negotiated with the local gang warlords and persuaded three neighborhoods to accept the arrangements of the World Tree system.

During this period, Misuru met three free mystics, all of whom were at Kaidan level and were no match for him.

The first batch of tribesmen had residences under Meyer's arrangement. They were all well-meaning gangsters and warlords who saw that Misulu was too enthusiastic and offered them as spoils of war for protection.

These people are users of the [World Tree] system. As members of the virtual community, they began a long run-in with the three neighborhoods Misulu conquered.

Apu returned to the rainforest and prepared to take the second group of 800 tribesmen to Mbambuka.

The long rainy season is coming, and if we don’t migrate quickly, it will be difficult to cross the Kuba River after it rises.

Not long ago, Edward announced Lin An's arrival through the radio to the residents of Mbambuka, igniting an uproar.

At that time, graffiti with [Forest Ranger]'s face was spray-painted everywhere on the streets. Some wrote, "This is the answer to all problems," while others wrote, "A symbol of the invasion of evil from outside!"

However, without the support of the government, the people are leaderless and unable to make waves.

During this period, Edward took on the propaganda work. He and Fu Bin went deep into the streets of Mbambuka city. The former spread Lin An's positive news and suppressed opposition; the latter conducted public opinion polls.

Fu Bin told Lin An that in fact, most people didn't care who Lin An was and why they drove away the Red Poppy Chamber of Commerce. All they cared about were firewood, rice, oil, salt, and long-term basic necessities.

"As long as you meet the requirements, they don't even care that you are an alien, haha." He smiled with a self-conscious humor.

very eloquent.

Lin An thought silently: Could this be the reason why your boss sent you to Nanzhou?

While waiting for the computer to start up, Lin An turned on the system, green data surrounded him like butterflies, and there was a message from Misulu in "Communicate with Developers".

"Lin, I caught a wild mystic in the streets of Udim. Do you want to identify his mysterious prototype on the spot? I can also take it to the hotel."

"Let me go take a look." Lin An replied, "Would you like to bring you a pair of rain boots?"

"No, it's quite dry today."

Lin An glanced at the damp ground outside the window, frowned, and said nothing.

It was already noon when we arrived at the streets of Udim as promised. The scent of palm oil, burnt cassava and bananas filled the air, creating a busy but peaceful scene.

Through the positioning of the World Tree system, Lin An walked towards Misulu until he stood at the entrance of an open L-shaped alley.

"Bang, bang, bang."

A loud sound accompanied the sparks across the dark streets. Lin An noticed the aura coming from "Comes", but for some reason it did not belong to Misulu.

With a slight frown, Lin An entered the emptying mode, and sure enough, he didn't see Misulu's light spot.

He introduced luminous green data that adhered to the walls and floors, glowing with fluorescent light and illuminating the scene inside.

A blacksmith is forging a pot in front of a dilapidated house. His roof is shaky and precarious after the heavy rain, while his wife sweeps the puddles at the door.

Feeling Lin An's prying eyes, the blacksmith raised his head with a foul look on his face and warned with his eyes, thinking he was an ordinary person meddling in his own business.

He had just awakened not long ago and had not received any systematic guidance, so he was not very sensitive to the energy of another world.

This is the free mystic.

The person was found, the question is where did Misulu go?

Lin An thought that the other party had been controlled and became a prisoner who could not move. However, let alone the uniform, the blacksmith not only continued his life as usual, but even put on an expression to tell Lin An not to disturb him.

The strangest thing is that according to the positioning of the World Tree, Lin An clearly arrived near Misulu, but he did not see him.

Taking a step back, Lin An reminded: "Misulu, I'm here. Where are you?"

"An alley in Udim Street. Well, the wall next to me is covered with dense sweet potato vines, and there is a yellow monkey lying in front of it."
