In the basement of the castle.

After the doctors left, Du Dian and others also rested separately. They didn't close their eyes well for ten days outside the wall. At this moment, in this place like a cage, everyone was completely relaxed, and soon the snoring began.

Du Di'an didn't fall asleep immediately, but gently stroked the magic marks on his chest. The touch was so clear that he couldn't tell whether it was transmitted from his fingertips to his mind or from the magic marks. It was like being touched between his fingers, the cool feeling that made his hair stand on end, and his nerves were instinctively tense.

When he exerted a little force, he could feel his heart beating faster, and he felt a bit of chest tightness.

"This magic mark... If it is destroyed, my life should also be greatly threatened, or even die." Du Di'an thought silently, but he did not expect his life to be linked to a magic mark, to be precise, It is connected with the blood-colored worm in the magic mark.

He was lying on the bed, turned left and right, but didn't fall asleep. Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of the "Guangming Doctrine" on the small table. He moved in his heart, took it over and opened it gently, only to see the flying quill characters falling into his eyes, the first sentence at the beginning. , so he squinted his eyes, "Brightness, is the truth?"

"The world has light, so plants can grow."

"Because there is light, we can 'see'. "

"Light can give life to people, and the great creator of light, the God of Light, will shelter all those who are loyal to him..."

The opening chapter of the canon is a statement of purpose and is also the core of the canon, and each subsequent chapter is a story that benefits from the "light", which is a phenomenon that everyone knows to be precise. Just because everyone knows it, it cannot be refuted! Because the effect of light is too great, what this canon says is basically correct, Du Di'an even thinks that what the canon says is not complete enough!

The role of light...

Without light, there would be no life on earth!

This alone trumps thousands of examples.

However, knowing is knowing, but Du Dian will not believe in the "God of Light". It is not bad that the role of light cannot be ignored, but... This has a dime relationship with your Holy See of Light?

Du Di'an flipped through it hastily, and roughly understood how to recruit believers.

The first is to put forward some well-known natural phenomena, compile them into their own "teaching ideas", and then list them one by one. After reading it, most of them will have a sudden understanding, and they will be immediately convinced based on what they see in life.

Once you are convinced, you can add your own ideas to it, confuse these ideas, and instill them into the minds of others. If your personality is not sound enough and your worldview is not strong enough, it will be difficult to distinguish the confused ideas, so you can fully believe it. become blind.

Once blind, it is a devout believer, who believes what he says.

"What is mentioned above is just the appearance brought by some light, and there is no scientific basis to explain it. Just like my father often said, the ancients were smart, but lacking tools, they can only know the truth, but do not know the reason, and the same is true of today's people. "Du Di'an secretly said: "After perfecting the tools and entering the microscopic level, you can explain the origin of light from the root, and even allow people to see the shape of light."

"My father often said that all ignorant beliefs are due to the backwardness of technology and cannot be explained."

Du Dian firmly believed in his father's words, and became more and more determined to become an alchemist.

...

...

The three days of washing passed quickly.

The two doctors would come over for routine examinations every day to observe the physical changes of Du Dian and others. In fact, they were just passing through. They had seen too many such examinations. Basically, those who were infected would develop symptoms soon. Only Those who are extremely tenacious will carefully hide their scars and endure it until the last moment of the third day to erupt, but there are very few examples of that.

The basement opened, and Du Dian and others put on the new black soft armor that they sent. The size was also measured according to their broken soft armor, and it fit very well.

"Everyone, please." A bright guard came over and showed everyone the way.

Du Di'an and others did not see the blue-black long-haired knight, and left the castle with the bright guard. As soon as they arrived at the gate, they heard a voice: "Mr. Du Di'an, who is Mr. Du Di'an?"

Du Di'an looked in surprise, and the speaker was a middle-aged gentleman wearing a black tall hat and a cane in his hand, looking up at Du Di'an and others.

Scott, who was walking on the side, smiled and pointed to Du Di'an, "This is it."

The middle-aged gentleman was a little surprised. He didn't expect that it was only a big boy who made him wait here to deliver the letter, but he didn't dare to neglect, he quickly stepped forward, took out a letter from the side of his chest, and said, "Mr. Dean, this is It's a letter to you."

Du Di'an swept the stamps and address on it. It was the stamp of the Mellon consortium and the address of the scavenger headquarters. He immediately understood that it was the two doctors who reported about the magic marks.

Nodding slightly to say thank you, Du Dian put away the letterhead and opened it gently. The content was very simple: "Find me in the top office of the headquarters... Top floor?"

Du Di'an naturally understands what the top level means. That is to deal with the top secrets of the scavengers. In short, if the top executives like Peet and other scavengers are trained or have meetings, they will be held on the top floor of the headquarters.

"It's about nominating you as a hunter, the headquarters is really quick." Scott smiled and said, "Congratulations, I became a hunter after being a scavenger once, and maybe I can spend more time in the wilderness in the future. met you."

Mia next to him was stunned and said, "What, what's the situation? Hunter? Dean?"

Scott smiled and said: "You don't know yet, Dean gave birth to the magic mark and is already a veritable hunter."

Mia looked at Du Dian in a stunned manner, a little dazed.

Du Dian smiled slightly and said to Scott: "This time, I would like to thank you for your guidance."

"Small idea." Scott smiled, but was very happy in his heart, knowing that Du Dian had written down his favor, he immediately said: "I'll leave with Mia first, after a few days after the material prices are evaluated, let's meet at the headquarters again. ."

Du Dian is a little surprised, the price of materials has not been evaluated yet? But thinking about those things, they are all modern items from the ruins outside the wall, and many things are things that people have never seen inside the wall. It does take time to evaluate the price.

After watching Scott and Mia leave, the three of Macon also said goodbye to Du Dian and left here together in the exclusive carriage of the consortium outside.

The other three consortium scavengers and the new boy, after politely saying goodbye to Du Dian, also chose a consortium carriage and left here.

Du Dian accepted the letter and took the carriage directly to the headquarters.
