“This, can’t be?”
Taisha’s face showed an expression of disbelief.
Although her husband was a top psychologist with a hefty income.
But even in the United States, they were just upper middle class. How could anyone target them?
Taisha didn’t quite believe it. Seeing this, Rhode didn’t explain more, after all, how could he tell her it was an evil spirit?
Without dwelling on the matter, Rhode waved goodbye and drove away.
Taisha immediately forgot about the whole thing.
Looking at the mess all over the yard, the party had lasted until late last night and they hadn’t had time to clean up.
She had planned to clean up with her husband in the morning, but as soon as he woke up, Harman received a call.
He said that there was a special patient who needed to be seen in the next state, and he wouldn’t be back for three days.
Leaving her to deal with this mess.
Sighing, Taisha started cleaning. Luckily, the workload wasn't too big.
Soon, she had finished most of the cleaning.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead, looking at the clothes that were wet with sweat and clinging to her body, revealing her perfect curves.
“So dirty!”
Taisha looked at them with a hint of disgust. She wasn't a neat freak, but she did like to be clean.
She walked quickly into the house and went straight to the bathroom.
She turned on the shower and washed the sweat off her body.
“Ah!”
Suddenly, a sharp scream rang out.
It sounded like it came from outside the bedroom, and Taisha, who was taking a shower, was startled.
She quickly wrapped herself in a towel and ran to the bedside table in the bedroom, taking a handgun out of the drawer.
“Who’s out there!”
Her nervous voice trembled slightly as she cautiously went outside the bedroom.
But she found that the door and windows were all locked from the inside, there was no sign of anyone else entering.
“What’s going on, am I having hallucinations?”
She searched the room, but couldn't find anyone. Taisha was confused.
She came outside the bedroom and suddenly saw a layer of black ash scattered on the floor in front of the door.
She looked at the door, only half of a burnt rope was left hanging on the door.
“What’s going on?”
Taisha looked at the black ash on the ground, covering her mouth, her face full of surprise.
Rhode had given her several talismans before, and she had casually hung one of them on the bedroom door when she got home.
Now, the talisman had spontaneously combusted?
Thinking of the piercing scream that didn't sound like a normal person, Taisha felt a chill down her spine.
Could it be that evil spirits really exist?
Thinking about this, Taisha held her breath and ran into the bedroom to retrieve the talisman that was in the cabinet.
She frantically pulled out her phone and dialed her husband's number.
But several calls in a row went unanswered.
Taisha couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.
Just then, a flash of Rhode's figure came to mind.
Rhode had given her the talisman, maybe he had already discovered that there was an evil spirit in the house?
...
On the other side.
Inside the classroom.
Rhode, sitting among a group of male students, felt the heat of the gazes around him and breathed a sigh of relief.
Although there were quite a few students secretly looking at him, because of the distance, they weren't affected by the aura around him.
So, the female students didn't go crazy like before.
As class started, everything seemed to return to normal again.
In class, the professor lectured enthusiastically, but Rhode couldn't help but yawn.
Out of ten sentences, he could understand at most two and a half, the rest was all guesswork.
Asking him, a person with only high school knowledge, to listen to university lectures was no less than putting him through the wringer.
At this rate, forget about graduating early.
If he could even graduate, it would be a stroke of luck.
He endured until the end of class, and Rhode managed to scrounge up a bunch of textbooks and notes.
Sacrifice!
A large amount of knowledge flooded his mind, and in an instant, he felt like he was back on track.
“This ability is really cheating,”
Rhode couldn’t help but marvel, no effort required.
All it takes is a sacrifice, and you can perfectly master the knowledge.
If he were to sacrifice all the books in the world, he dared not imagine how powerful he would be.
“Physics, biology, alchemy, potions...”
A massive amount of knowledge gathered in his mind, Rhode suddenly realized that the theoretical knowledge of modern science.
It seemed to have a close connection with magical civilization.
For example, the conversion of matter in alchemy can be achieved through modern technology.
However, the price paid is far greater than with magic.
But at the same time, some things that technology can easily achieve, require complex magic to complete.
If the two could be combined, many difficult things would become simple.
It was like two different forks on the same road, although the paths were different, they led to the same place.
That is, truth!
Whether it’s magic or technology, the essence is the analysis of the world and the rules.
“Combining biology and alchemical puppetry, perhaps I can create alchemical creatures that are close to human beings.”
A keen interest flashed in Rhode's eyes.
Alchemical puppetry is complex and profound, but in terms of understanding the human body, modern biology is undoubtedly more professional.
This is the limitation of the times.
In an era where desecration of corpses could lead to execution.
Those who dared to explore the structure of the human body were only the lawless necromancers.
If modern biology and alchemical puppetry were perfectly combined.
Perhaps, he could touch that power that only gods could master, a power that belonged to gods.
To create life!
