Stay away from Conan.

Chapter 498 Possessed Authority

"Prophecies don't count."

Koizumi Hongzi heard Gao Yuan's words, thought for a while and said:

"It's just that I had a strange dream before. I don't remember what happened in the dream, but I just feel that I need to prepare a jewelry with the image of a 'priestess' earlier. Although I don't know why, I just feel that I will use it sooner or later."

Saying so, Koizumi Hongzi looked at Gao Yuan's expression, from horror, then gradually became dignified, and finally asked abruptly:

"Miss Koizumi, what do you mean by 'dream weaving is the pinnacle of illusion'?"

"Huh? Don't you know?"

Hearing this question, Koizumi Hongzi couldn't help being a little surprised, but seeing Gao Yuan's expression did not seem to be lying, she sighed helplessly, and replied a little seriously:

"You should know that 'illusion' is to use various means to achieve some seemingly incredible things. But its essence is not to change reality, but to affect people's cognition. For example, the use of drugs, or various psychological Hint. Among them, the most extreme is to use various methods to consciously let the other party enter a carefully woven dream, and directly influence the other party's subconscious from the dream, this is "dream weaving".

Saying that, Koizumi Hongzi frowned slightly, looked at Gao Yuan's thoughtful expression, and then said with some helpless emotion:
"However, this method is very difficult. With my spiritual sense and methods, the chance of successfully 'weaving dreams' will not exceed one percent... It is estimated that no one in this world can perfectly master this ability."

After saying this, Koizumi Hongzi saw that Gao Yuan seemed to be still immersed in thinking, so he couldn't help saying angrily:

"Hey! Don't think about it, give me my 'reward' first!"

Saying this, Koizumi Hongzi directly handed the necklace in Gao Yuan's hand.

But at this moment, when Gao Yuan's hand touched the necklace, in Gao Yuan's sight, a magical scene happened——

I saw, a burst of light emerged from Gao Yuan's own hand, and then combined, it turned into a card shape right above the necklace.

In the end, the card sank slowly and sank into the necklace. All the light disappeared at this moment.

Then, at the same moment, the expressions of Gao Yuan and Koizumi Hongzi changed in unison——

"This... what happened?"

Very puzzled, Koizumi Hongzi took the necklace back into her hand with some strangeness, looked at it in detail, and couldn't help saying in surprise:
"Obviously nothing has changed, but why does it feel different?"

Saying this, Koizumi Hongzi put the necklace on her neck thoughtfully, held the bottom ornament of the necklace with one hand, stared at it thoughtfully.

Unlike Koizumi Hongzi, the change in Gao Yuan's expression at this time is due to the new content that appeared in front of him after receiving the "priestess" item——

I saw that when my eyes caught sight of the "Hermit" on my body, in my sight, a monocle similar to the "star" appeared suddenly, like a transparent icon.

In this regard, Gao Yuan seemed to understand something subconsciously, so he took out the "star" from his right pocket, put it on his right eye, and glanced at the corner of the "hermit" again through the "star" lens.

This time, the originally transparent icon in the line of sight suddenly became solid, and it seemed to be the same as the options on the settlement panel, which could be selected by clicking on the mind.

So Gao Yuan clicked on the icon of the monocle that became real like choosing a reward.

Immediately afterwards, another burst of light began to emerge, and some particle-like light spots floated from the clothes of the "hermit" and flew to the lens of the "star".

Then, from a high distance, it can be seen that in the lens, those light spots turned into a card, and then disappeared into the field of vision.

But at the same time, with the disappearance of that card, Gao Yuan was keenly aware of something, and with a slight movement of his mind, he saw that the settlement panel, which could not appear at will, could appear in front of him at this time according to his own thoughts.

However, this panel does not have the same information content as the settlement panel, but looks like a book.

Regarding this, Gao Yuan's thoughts moved slightly, and he wanted to open this book, so this illusory book was opened in front of Gao Yuan——

But now, the entire book is almost completely blank, with only one page containing words:
"Name: Hermit"

"Authority effect: Only with the authority of "Hermit" can you use the item "Hermit" to exert the effect of the item."

"Item effect: ①The hermit gropes forward alone in the dark, so you wearing the "hermit" will not easily attract the attention of others, and it will not be easy for others to have strong emotions for you. ②The hermit tries to give up the appearance Therefore, when you wear "Hermit", it will be easier for you to keep calm, free from interference from external temptations, and your thinking will become clearer."

"Precautions: If other people have strong emotions for you, or are familiar with you who don't wear "Hermit", the "Hermit" item will be invalid for them."

In this regard, after reading the detailed description of the authority of the "hermit" on this page, Gao Yuan couldn't help but understand——

Sure enough, after that "reward upgrade", the effect of "Hermit" was different from that of "Detective's Magical Trench Coat", and because I didn't know the specific effect of "Hermit", I could only use " Use the effect of "Detective's Magical Trench Coat" to infer the effect of "Hermit".

Now it seems that compared with "Detective's Magical Trench Coat", "The Hermit" not only has the effect of hiding identity, but also makes people think clearly, which can indeed be regarded as a reward after upgrading.

Compared with these, the points mentioned in the precautions also made Gao Yuan understand why when he was at the "SONOKO Hotel" that day, he clearly handed over the trench coat and the authority of the "Hermit" to Miyano Shiho , why was she still found and hunted down by Qin Jiu——

After all, Gin not only knows Miyano Shiho who is not wearing "Hermit", but also has strong feelings for Miyano Shiho.

Thinking of this, Gao Yuan couldn't help but take off the "star" and put it back in his pocket——

Judging from the effect of the "priestess" item, I can check the effects of all authority now, and it seems that I need to pass through the "star" to check the authority, so how can I check the authority of the "star"?
Therefore, Gao Yuan became very curious about it, and now he just wants to go home quickly and study it carefully.

Just as Gao Yuan was thinking, Koizumi Hongzi turned his gaze to Gao Yuan at this moment, and couldn't help saying meaningfully:
"Your clothes, can you borrow me to study it now?"

As for this, Gao Yuan changed the topic somewhat helplessly:
"Miss Koizumi, the reward mentioned in the prophecy has already been given to you, I think it's time for us to go back."

"Hey, stingy."

Hearing Gao Yuan's refusal, Koizumi Hongzi couldn't help but look at the necklace around her neck, with a mysterious smile on the corner of her mouth:

"I hope you won't come to beg me then!"
