Mystery: I can change things in books

Chapter 128
In the first volume of the original book, at least eight formulas of extraordinary potions are mentioned:
"The Fool" path sequence 9 and 8: "Soothsayer" and "Joker".

"Imaginary" Path Sequence 9, Sequence 8: "Audience" and Mind Reader.

"Sun" Path Sequence 9 and Sequence 8: "Singers" and "Prayers for Light".

"Witch" path Sequence 7 and Sequence 6: "Witch" and "Witch of Pleasure".

In addition to these, Chris also learned the incomplete potion formulas of Sequence 5 "Priest of Light" and Sequence 4 "Darknessless One" of the "Sun" pathway.

Regarding the magic potion formulas of Sequence 9 and Sequence 8 of the "Witch" pathway, the original book describes it like this:
"Scenes flashed one after another. Klein saw the formula of the 'Instigator' and the formula of the 'Assassin', and understood their corresponding characteristics."

Chris nodded slightly. These two formulas were not important to him. If he wanted to "help" Tris get promoted, what he should tell him was the "witch's" potion formula, and Klein would also know this information later.

Chris turned the book to the front. He wanted to conjure some money, but after seeing that the color of any currency in the book was gray, he had to give up and conjure three items from Chapter 23: "Shirt" and "Pants" and "leather shoes."

There was a splash of starlight, and three items appeared directly above the book one after another, floating slowly.

Since there was no other explanation, the appearance of these three items was very ordinary - white shirt, black pants and leather shoes.

Chris didn't ask for much. He neatly changed into fitting clothes, finally no longer naked, and the monotonous color also enhanced his status and made him look like a real gentleman.

When he walked to the shore and looked at his appearance facing the sea water, he suddenly thought that since he had successfully conjured something from the book, it meant that at least one day had passed since the night in Misty Village.

He is currently at Sequence 8, and the cooldown time of the "Book Transformation" skill is still 24 hours.

...Captain, they haven’t already held a funeral for me, right?
Chris thought about this possibility. If so, he would not be able to return to the logistics department to meet with his teammates.

This is because at least one day has passed since the incident, and his resurrection did not borrow anyone else's body. This means that there was no "remains" left at the scene, so the official Beyonders must have acquiesced that he was dead.

If Chris suddenly appeared at this time, it would be tantamount to throwing himself into a trap, telling the higher-ups of the Church of the God of Steam and Machinery that the lightning that destroyed the Misty Village was related to him, and his identity was extremely special.

In this way, even if the official Beyonders don't regard him as an enemy, they probably won't regard him as a teammate anymore.

So now he can't even be seen in public in Tingen.

Tingen is not like Backlund. It is a metropolis with a population of more than 500 million. The population here is only a few hundred thousand and the area is small. Even if ordinary people don't know him, what if a Nighthawk or a Machine Heart recognizes him? , that would be troublesome.

The extraordinary world is like this. You must be careful and cautious, and you cannot expose yourself easily. If he had not been desperate before, he would not even become a believer in the God of Steam and Machinery, nor would he join the Heart of Machinery.

Putting aside good and evil and safety, becoming an official extraordinary person is subject to more constraints than those in a secret organization.

Chris sighed softly, gave the idea of ​​"descend", and returned to reality.

After changing his clothes, Chris lowered his head, avoiding the main road, and walked slowly along the path, always vigilant about his surroundings.

If the incident in Misty Village had only been a day or two, there might still be police officers on duty in the suburbs, and he would definitely not be able to contact them now. He would try to avoid the sight of official organizations and see if he could leave the court as soon as possible. root.

But if you leave Tingen, who will you go to...

Chris thought about it, he didn't know many people, and even though it was June 6 and Klein had already traveled through time, he was still a newbie who didn't understand anything, not to mention that the goddess of the night was still watching him silently.Are you going to find Samantha?She might have returned to the sea.

Chris was thinking as he walked, and inadvertently looked up and saw the Misty Village in the distance.

No, this is not a village now, but a ruin. Under the crimson moonlight, the broken walls look particularly sad.The shadows of the trees in the woods are like devils with teeth and claws, infiltrating terror into people.

Chris's pockets were empty, and the white crystal copper chain had been thrown away at some point. He couldn't use the pendulum method to divine whether there were any police around the Misty Village.

He took a deep breath and walked towards the ruins of Misty Village.

He kept vigilant on the road, but when he was about to approach the ruins, he saw a familiar figure.

The figure was facing him, squatting on a small slope. Chris couldn't see clearly. There was a flickering spark in front of the man's face.

David Horlick held a cigarette in his mouth and stared silently at the ruins of the village.

The altar was destroyed a long time ago, and its remaining mystical characteristics have also been eliminated, and now it is just an ordinary ruin.

Horik blew out a smoke ring and kept thinking about Chris in his mind, thinking about all aspects of him, Chris when he first joined the Heart of Machines, Chris who helped him on Iron Cross Street...

He felt that Chris was not simple from the beginning. It was not until the captain showed him the telegram after the funeral yesterday that he realized that Chris's identity or strength was far above his own.

For the second time in his life, he felt a little guilty. He felt that he was sorry for Chris and should not have targeted him and made things difficult for him when he first joined the Heart of the Machine.

But these are no longer important.

Horik put out his cigarette butt and turned to leave.

Chris was squatting behind a haystack. He didn't know it was Horik, let alone what Horik was thinking. He waited until the spark was extinguished for a long time before he poked his head out and slowly walked towards the ruins.

Among the ruins, Chris could still vaguely see the original roads and houses in Misty Village, and the air was filled with a faint smell of herbs.

Chris picked up a broken tile and held it tightly in his hand.

This village was destroyed because of him, did the villagers die because of him?
Chris thought about the famous dilemma. When a steam train is heading towards innocent people tied to the track, should you pull the lever and let it crash into another group of people?

He let go of the tiles and let out a long breath.

His heart told him that he had done nothing wrong.

If the original witch is born, not only the villagers of Mist Village will die, but perhaps the entire Tingen will turn into hell.

Chris sighed, got up and walked into the city.

After taking two steps, a hand was placed on his shoulder.
