Conan Rick's Investigator

"Heaven", you must pass

"Heaven's Gate." Based on this series of descriptions and the various mysterious images that emerged in his mind, Qin Zhibo guessed that the fantasy world that Xuanjun thought of was actually the dream world.

The fairyland in the Dreamland is naturally the secret realm of Kadath that everyone in the Dreamland knows, but no one knows where it is or how to get there.

The main content of this chapter is to introduce how to enter the secret realm of Kadath and ascend to

"Heaven". As I said earlier, ascend to

"Heaven" needs to pass first

"Heaven's Gate." The Heaven's Gate is a direct passage into the secret realm of Kadath. It can be considered a spatial teleportation channel, but it is not absolute.

To create a Heavenly Gate, one must first complete the Illusionary World Soul Ascension Scroll. This is also the only spell described in this chapter.

To ascend to the Immortal Realm through the Illusion World, you must first prepare purple paper, and use spiritual blood to draw specific spells on the purple paper.

As Qin Zhibo read to this point, a rectangular piece of paper with runes painted on it stood before him. He didn't need to memorize it specifically, because as long as he read and researched, he could fully memorize the key knowledge points in the book.

How could such convenience be achieved without the authority of a wise deity? The second step is to prepare something spiritual as a sacrifice, which can be a spiritual object, a living being, etc.

The higher the spirituality of the sacrifice provided, the higher the chance of the spell's success. In the Dream Realm, it is generally believed that the larger the number of groups, such as humans, the lower the spirituality.

The third and final step is to go to Lengyuan to cast the spell. Lengyuan is a place in the Dreamland. Lengyuan is located in the northern continent where Qin Zhibo and Kuroba Kaito are heading by boat.

Many people in Dreamland believe that the secret realm of Kadath is located in Leng Yuan, but no one knows where it is.

Once the Illusion World Step Spirit ascends to the Immortal Realm successfully, a permanent two-way channel will be established between Leng Yuan and the secret realm Kadath.

It can also be seen from this point that this spell is not easy to succeed. The success depends largely on the quality of the sacrifice.

Despite this, Qin Zhibo still memorized this method. Even if the success rate was low, it could be implemented as a backup plan.

After reading Chapter 6, the next chapter is Chapter 7. This is also the last chapter of the Xuanjun Seven Chapter Secret Scripture, and the content is naturally more exciting.

Chapter 7: Zhengyi Jiangshengweimenglu At the beginning of Chapter 7, it tells that Xuanjun has been having a dream since he was young, a dream about

He dreamed that the underwater Dragon Palace would one day surface, and the Dragon King would ascend to the surface of the sea, bringing endless disasters to mankind.

The so-called underwater dragon palace is actually the underwater city of R'lyeh. The Dragon King is naturally the sleeping Lord of R'lyeh, Cthulhu.

However, the return of Cthulhu is conditional.

"The stars return to the right, and the Ancestral Dragon returns." This reminded Qin Zhibo of what the Yis said: the end of the world for mankind will come in

It will come when "the time comes". Is this so-called time what Xuanjun said?

"The stars are back to square"? In Qin Zhibo's vision, the image quickly rose from the sea surface to the sky. Nine spheres of different colors and sizes were arranged in the deep space of the universe.

With a little discernment, one can recognize that these nine spheres represent the nine planets. Each of the nine planets rotates at a constant speed in its own orbit, with the eternal center at the center being the Sun.

But at this moment, in the more distant universe beyond the nine planets, a brown-red planet quickly flew towards the solar system where the nine planets were located.

Immediately afterwards, the rotation speed of the nine planets either accelerated or slowed down, all making strange adjustments.

After a while, the nine planets were connected in a straight line!

Chapter 1247 Next Destination

Nine planets in a line! The image before me, drawn by Xuanjun, is a rare nine-planet alignment! Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto—these nine planets are connected in a straight line!

In the nearly 6,000 years of human history, this has only happened once.

"Nine planets in conjunction". However, the nine planets in conjunction actually had some angle deviations, and it was not a true line of nine planets.

Eight, seven, and six planets in a row are common in human civilization.

"Often" happens. But what Xuanjun wants to express is

The correct "star positions" and the brown-red celestial body that can make the nine stars line up in a straight line. What exactly is this celestial body?

Xuanjun called this celestial body

The Celestial Official who presides over the dawn has the power to announce the dawn with the cry of the gods. As he travels through the vast universe, his cry can correct the positions of the stars and awaken the other celestial officials who are dormant.

The Heavenly Official is described by Xuanjun.

"Gods" are the Great Old Ones. So is this brown-red celestial body also one of the Great Old Ones?

Qin Zhibo stared at the huge celestial body that was sliding through the solar system like a fashion but not in direct contact with any star, and suddenly discovered that there were some detailed descriptions on its surface.

Looking closely, it turned out to be a giant eye! There were actually eyes on the surface of the planet? Qin Zhibo frowned slightly, as he seemed to have some impression of this scene in his mind.

After thinking for a few seconds, he suddenly realized that this was the one Terai Huangzhisuke had shown him.

Is this a picture of the Great Halley's Comet? After the incident of the Egg of Memory, I found Kuroba Kaito and Terai Kōnosuke and talked to them for the first time about why

Is "Kaito Kidd" being hunted? The reason is that Kaito Kidd often steals legendary gems, hindering the zoo organization's plans, so he is being targeted.

Kuroba Kaito once used fake gems to track the zoo organization's stronghold, and overheard the reasons why the organization stole gems from the organization's cadres.

The leader of the zoo organization hopes to find

"Pandora Stone of Life" to achieve his wish of immortality.

"Pandora", through the return of Halley's Comet, which comes to Earth once every 10,000 years, if Pandora is presented to the full moon, the Stone of Life will shed tears.

Anyone who drinks this tear will become immortal and become

The existence of a "god." Although this theory is very tempting, if you think about it carefully, there are still many things that you cannot understand.

For example, everyone on Earth knows that Halley's Comet returns to Earth every 76 years. However, officials from the zoo organization claim that Halley's Comet returns once every years. This is obviously not the Halley's Comet that is generally believed to return to Earth.

After consulting a lot of information, Akai Huangzhisuke actually found a

The Great Halley's Comet was discovered by the University of Blythe, England, and returns every 10,000 years. Its return can cause changes in the positions of stars in the entire solar system and even the Milky Way.

It may even change the Earth's magnetic field and cause the Earth to enter an ice age. Since the University of Bristol has not directly observed the existence of this celestial body, there is only a hand-drawn picture of this star.

Qin Zhibo still remembers the hand-drawn picture he saw on that webpage.

A planet with a giant eye. Xuanjun believed that a planet with an eyeball would change the positions of the stars.

The University of Brychester in the UK also believes that there is a planet with eyes that will change the position of the stars... Could this be a coincidence?

Qin Zhibo fell into deep thought. If the two described the same planet, then the celestial body that the zoo organization was looking forward to could actually awaken many of the Old Ones.

"Sichen Tianguan". Qin Zhibo had found

"Pandora", the true identity of this gem is actually the world's largest ruby - Crimson Tear.

When Kuroba Kaito was young, Kuroba Toichi once said that this crimson tear was an artificial ruby, which made Kuroba Kaito think that this was the most unlikely thing in the world.

The gem of Pandora. However, with Qin Zhibo's magic extractor, the magic power on the gem was still detected.

But apart from the powerful magic reaction on that gem, I didn't feel anything special about it.

If humans can use

Pandora achieved immortality, and there seemed to be no connection between the two. However, Qin Zhibo had previously learned from Haneda Yasuharu that Harui Fuden, a B-level agent of the Nine Angels Organization, had investigated the information in the Zoo Organization.

The purpose of the existence of the zoo organization is to fulfill the prophecy of Nefren Ka, the high priest and black pharaoh of ancient Egypt.

According to the prophecy, Nevron Ka will be reborn in a certain era thousands of years after his death, bringing infinite chaos and darkness to mankind.

If resurrecting Nevren Ka is the true purpose of the zoo organization, then the celestial body it is waiting for is very likely

The "Dawn Herald" is here. Because Nefren Kanai is the Black Pharaoh, one of the many incarnations of Naa. The dawn herald of the Dawn Herald signifies the resurrection and return of the Old Ones, a perfect time for the Black Pharaoh's reincarnation.

Qin Zhibo was thinking, and the image in front of him gradually entered the next unit. The next unit was about one of the four evil

"Chaos", and its countless forms.

Chaos is none other than the Crawling Chaos—Nyarlathotep. The Crawling Chaos has no fixed form, yet possesses millions of incarnations, each of which can be considered its true form.

Therefore, He is both the God of Thousands of Faces who has thousands of faces, and He is also the God of Faceless whose true face no one knows.

Nyarlathotep's purpose is unknown, and each incarnation appears and acts differently.

Therefore, understanding Naija is actually understanding Naija's countless forms. First, Xuanjun introduced Naija's most common form - the Night Howler.

Qin Zhibo took a quick look at Naa in this form in Xuanjun's drawing. It was a roaring giant, its body deformed and ugly, with a giant tentacle growing where its head should have been.

If a human summons Naiya in the forest terrain, once successful, this incarnation will most likely appear.

Since the Night Roarer has the characteristics of low intelligence, rage, and inability to communicate, and its huge size also brings the effect of war trampling, it is highly not recommended to come into contact with this incarnation.

Xuanjun thoughtfully included a gentle reminder, leaving Qin Zhibo speechless. Who would summon this thing for no reason?

Unless he's crazy... In addition to the most common incarnation, the Night Howler, Naya has many other uncommon incarnations.

The appearance of these incarnations is highly likely to be related to the location. If summoned in different locations, different incarnations will appear.

During the Eastern Han Dynasty, when Xuanjun lived, there was a

The incarnation of the "bloated woman." The bloated woman usually appears in a gorgeous female form, looking enchanting and graceful, but is actually a giant, bloated monster.

In history, those emperors who were bewitched by women, which caused chaos in their country and eventually led to their demise, were all bewitched by bloated women.

In addition, there are black humans, black bulls, black hurricanes, black locust plagues, black blind men, black skeletons... Xuanjun listed many incarnations of Naia, basically all of them are related to the

"Black" is fine. However, there is no way around it. Due to the limitations of the times, the Xuanjun of the Eastern Han Dynasty could not fully understand the significance of the existence of these incarnations, and it is even more impossible for him to personally come into contact with every incarnation.

But the core logic that Xuanjun wants to express is that Nyarlathotep's incarnation exists anywhere humans can go or cannot go.

This is also true even in the Dream Realm. Because of this, there are no fewer than a million people, both human and non-human, who yearn for its might.

However, despite the power of Nyarlathotep, there are still celestial beings who are more powerful than him.

The existence of "Pangu Ancestor God".

"Pangu Ancestral God" ranks at the top of all heavenly officials. It is the beginning and end of everything. It is located in the first place of creation of heaven and earth outside the universe.

Qin Zhibo compared his previous knowledge of mythology and guessed that this

"Pangu Ancestor God" should refer to Azathoth.

"The Source of All Things"

"The Core of Primordial Chaos"

Azathoth, the "blind and foolish god," is the origin of all things in the universe. At the end of the chapter, a spell is introduced again.

This spell is called

"Zhengyi Jiangshengweimenglu" is a talisman that makes Nyarlathotep come, and it is also an extremely dangerous talisman.

Qin Zhibo is really not interested in this talisman, not to mention that he has a grudge against Baron Samedi, one of the millions of incarnations of Naia, so he can't have any contact with it.

Even looking at it for a second felt unlucky. Thus, he had finished reading the entire Seven Chapters of the Xuanjun Secret Scripture. [Reading Completed, Total Willpower Lost 22 Points] [Gained 2200 Points of Tricky Mythology Knowledge and Skill Proficiency] [Congratulations, your Tricky Mythology Knowledge and Skill have reached Level 5] Qin Zhibo had just exited reading mode when a long list of notifications popped up in the upper right corner of his field of view.

Although the entire reading process consumes 22 points of will points, since it is read in two sections, it is not affected overall.

And the level 5 Mysterious Myth skill also means that I am already considered a veteran in this area of ​​knowledge.

Qin Zhibo closed the book and leaned back on the sofa, his mind lost in thought. His top priority now was to investigate Cthulhu's return.

如果

"Great Halley's Comet" is the key to Cthulhu's return. If you want to determine the specific time of its return, you should visit the University of Bristol, where this celestial body was discovered.

However, this university is located in London, England, which is quite far away. Hmm... Qin Zhibo thought about it for a while and decided to go.

Because in London, not only can

The return time of "Great Halley's Comet" can also help Shuichi Akai find his family. Since Shuichi Akai lost his memory, Qin Zhibo has always wanted to help him contact his family.

According to the information provided by Yasuharu Haneda, Shuichi Akai has a younger brother who plays shogi in Tokyo, and a mother and younger sister living in London, England.

It's just that Akai Shuichi's mother, Mary, was very careful now because she was affected by the death of Akai Mutake.

Ordinary phone calls won't convince him; he needs to meet in person. If he goes to London, he can contact Mary.

But before leaving Japan, he and Kuroba Kaito have to complete the last adventure in the dreamland.

Because this is not only related to Kuroba Kaito's search for his biological father, Kuroba Toichi is also likely to know the specific conspiracy of the zoo organization.

And tonight, we'll probably reach the northern continent in the Dreamland. ...That night, Qin Zhibo went to Kuroba Kaito's home in Jianggutian Town.

Before, Kuroba Kaito lived in Qin Zhibo's office for a period of time in order to enter the dreamland smoothly.

Later, Kuroba Kaito became a dreamer and was able to enter the dreamland alone. In addition, Qin Zhibo had to deal with the affairs of the Yis people, so the two of them

"Separated." However, during this period, Kuroba Kaito had been following in the Dreamland without missing a single day.
