Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 217 - 217:109. Dangerous Meow Meow

“There must be everything in this book! After all, it’s a limited deluxe edition, it’s not possible to just use a few diagrams to deceive people. Tsk, tsk, tsk, what’s the difference between this and not getting a driver’s license but driving a Lamborghini first?”

Noland Lee kept sighing in his heart.

He held the newly acquired books with his elbow and leisurely walked towards the Iron Thorn Shield Company Building.

With a mental click in his mind, he opened the book “Alchemy Armor: Supreme Intelligence”.

Noland Lee just glanced at the table of contents, and immediately felt overwhelmed, like a primary school student trying to digest linear algebra, calculus, and probability theory and mathematical statistics all at once.

The overwhelming alchemical symbols, terms, and professional jargon squeezed into his eyes, rapidly stirring in his mind.

Noland’s body swayed slightly, and his stomach churned and convulsed.

Before he could vomit, he forcibly closed the “Supreme Computational Power”.

“…My God…yue-… I just looked at the table of contents, it shouldn’t be enough to cause nausea and vomiting…”

Noland pressed his stomach, stood by the side of the street, and leaned against the wall with his hand.

He faced the graffiti-covered wall and slowly took a few breaths, finally suppressing the discomfort in his stomach and dizziness in his head.

[System Message: ]

[You attempted to read “Alchemy Armament: Supreme Computing Power”.]

[Due to insufficient ‘Spirit’ attribute, you are unable to comprehend the extraordinary knowledge in the book, and suffer a mental shock, entering a mildly dizzy state.]

[System Reminder:]

[Having deconstructed this book, you have obtained its panel information. Please confirm that your ‘Spirit’ attribute meets the reading requirements presented on the panel information before reading.]

Noland lightly rubbed his temples and gradually recovered from the mild dizziness.

He glanced at the information sent by the system and realized that he had just made the mistake that every man would make.

He was too impulsive in the face of the extreme temptation of the Alchemy Suit.

He opened the book directly to read it without even looking at the “Supreme Calculation” panel information.

Fortunately, there wasn’t any dirty content recorded in the book, otherwise, that rash act of flipping through the book would have caused him considerable trouble.

“Hmm… this is a lesson I must remember. I need to keep in mind that in this world, the price for obtaining extraordinary power may be life and soul. From now on, I need to develop good habits. First, check the panel information in the deconstruction results, confirm there are no side effects, then read any book that brings extraordinary power.”

Noland lifted his hood, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and continued towards the Company Building.

He operated a bit in his mind, moved all the newly acquired books to the side, and instead began to look at the panel information for each book.

“Sage’s Particle Basic Encyclopedia” Reading Requirements: ‘Spirit’ 2 20 points. “Basic Alchemy Theory”

Reading Requirements: ‘Spirit’ 2 15 points. “A Brief History of Alchemy in the Golden Federation” Reading Requirements: ‘Spirit’ 2 10 points.

“Alchemy Armament: Supreme Computing Power”

Reading Requirements: ‘Spirit’ 2 90 points.

Noland currently has 16 points of ‘Spirit’, just enough to understand “Basic Theory”.

He opened “Basic Theory” and also opened the “Sage’s Particle Basic Encyclopedia”, which required 20 points of ‘Spirit’ to understand.

Comparing the two, Noland noticed something unusual.

He had already deconstructed “Basic Theory” once, and all the contents of the book had been engrained in his mind, never to be forgotten.

It was easy for Noland to read it, even being able to guess the next sentence from the previous one.

And here came the magical part.

According to his previous deconstruction experience, after deconstructing the “Sage’s Particle Basic Encyclopedia”, he should have engraved the knowledge of this book in his mind.

But now, when he reads it, he feels very obscure and can’t recall the contents of the book at all, completely different from the experience of reading “Basic Theory”.

“Could this be a protective mechanism of the System? To prevent my brain from being breached by extraordinary knowledge, does the System intentionally block knowledge I can’t understand in order to protect my brain?”

Noland felt more and more that this might be a possibility.

Otherwise, the System wouldn’t have specifically marked the ‘Reading Requirements’ column on the panel.

Noland entered the Company Building while pondering and bumped into Kent who was chatting with the receptionist.

“Ray Lee, I’ve been waiting for you.”

Kent waved the milky white document in his hand:

“This is a contract protected by the Alchemy Cathedral, you can take a look at it first. If you think there’s no problem, you can sign it now. Your Identity Card is ready, and I can give it to you at any time.”

Noland threw Deconstruction at the contract in the other’s hand, secretly alarmed, and took the contract.

This contract linked to the Alchemy Cathedral required over 1,000 Energy Points to deconstruct, quite extraordinary.

As soon as he got it, Noland noticed something different.

The paper used for the contract felt like cloth, tough and finely textured, with a soft texture, as if it was resistant to fire, water, and knife cuts.

He looked at the text on the paper, and the gorgeous yet dignified printed font caught his eye.

After a careful read, Noland knew the binding force of this contract..
