Smelting everything from pirates

Chapter 610 Visiting Professor Wald

For the next month, Barrett will teach language and literature at Miskatonic University. Since Barrett possesses the ability to write fruit, as long as any book he has read has words on it, Barrett will Te can never forget.

This made it unnecessary for Barrett to make any filings during class. He walked to the blackboard with chalk and spoke while writing.

He quoted scriptures, and he came to them casually, even if they were very old classics from Christianity and Christianity, Barrett could memorize them fluently.

There are even Buddhist scriptures and Hindu scriptures that Westerners don't like to use now. Barrett can also use them as examples.

So at the beginning, the only students Barrett came to class were his book friends, but later more and more students stood at the back of Barrett's classroom to listen to Barrett's lectures.

It also has to be said that Barrett's accumulation of knowledge about himself is actually extremely rich.

After one month of class, since Barrett came to the school halfway, Barrett's course is not a compulsory course, but a minor course.

The current university system has not yet reached the perfection of the 21st century, and minor courses do not require examinations and credit points.

More people came to Barrett's classroom to attend classes entirely because of their own hobbies and curiosity about the cultural world.

So one month later, in fact, the entire Miskatonic University has come to a busy exam season.

But this incident is very painful for the students, but very happy for the teachers. In addition, since Barrett has no courses, he visited Professor Harvey Wald on this day.

Professor Wald's family is a very old Arkham family, but until now, there is only Professor Wald in their family.

His son has already taken his wife to New York, left the city of Arkham, and started another life, but Wald is a very old-fashioned person and doesn't like the hustle and bustle of New York. The last time Barrett The reason why I was able to see Professor Walder on the train was because Professor Walder went to visit his little grandson.

In the room, Professor Wald was also very happy to see Barrett visiting. He put down the reading glasses hanging from his eyes, went to Barrett, and poured him a cup of coffee.

This cup of coffee is a sweet coffee that Americans especially like to drink. Many people think that the coffee that Americans drink is bitter, but it is actually the opposite.

Americans who especially like to eat sweets, how could they choose to drink bitter coffee, ordinary coffee will put a lot of sugar and a lot of milk.

The same is true for this cup of coffee. After Barrett took a sip, he felt that his teeth were about to fall out. Getting richer and richer, especially like to put sugar in food.

For example, French desserts, which are basically piled up with sugar one after another, so sweet that they stink.

After taking a sip of coffee, Barrett said to Professor Walder in front of him: "This time you came to visit Professor Walder, you got something because of an incident that happened to me. , I want to have a good chat with you."

Hearing that Barrett was about to talk about his past, Wald was actually a little curious. After all, there are a lot of wild imaginations in the novels written by Barrett.

For example, many male students especially like to watch Barrett's Raiders of the Lost Ark series. In Raiders of the Lost Ark, the history of various nations and cultures and ancient countries is involved, and Barrett can be said to be at his fingertips.

Even Wald had some doubts, whether Barrett had personally learned about and experienced those things, but seeing that Barrett was so young, he participated in the First World War when he was a teenager , should not have time to learn about those ancient histories and participate in wonderful adventures.

So I still feel that Barrett may have painted an amazing adventure story through the descriptions in the books and his wonderful imagination.

"I have a lot of time, Barrett, you can talk about the stories you have experienced." Wald put down the teacup in his hand, sat opposite Barrett, and waited quietly for Barrett Special narration.

At this time, Barrett began to talk about what he encountered on Blackwater Island.

When Barrett talked about the half-man, half-fish monsters he encountered, Wald obviously had a slight shift in his state and emotions, and then he said that Barrett was able to use and understand those monsters. A fancy word and spell.

Especially when Barrett got the Book of Sothoth and the mutilated Necronomicon, Professor Wald actually stood up from the stool and looked at Barrett.

But this old gentleman has not interrupted Barrett's narration, just waiting quietly, but it can also be seen that Professor Walder's brows are getting deeper and deeper, even covering the wrinkles on his forehead .

Especially after listening to Barrett's speculation about the whole Blackwater Island, Professor Wald's finger tapping speed on the desktop became faster and faster, and even became a piece, just like a web writer tapping on a mechanical keyboard Same.

"Your judgment is correct, Mr. Barrett, the group of monsters that rushed out of the sea did choose a correct time period and did something quite terrifying, but I I never thought that Mr. Barrett, your understanding of linguistics and characters is so keen. You can use that kind of peculiar characters just through your own talent. May I ask if you have brought those two books to Arkham? In the city?"

At this time, Barrett took out the Book of Sothos and the incomplete Necronomicon from his arms. When Wald saw these two books, he immediately blocked his sight with his hands, and then Said.

"Mr. Barrett, please put these two books down. The power exuded by these two books is too terrifying. Now I understand why you chose to come to Miskatonic University."

Seeing that Wald's spirit was so sharp, he couldn't bear it anymore just by sensing the Book of Sothos and the Necronomicon that Barrett took out.

In fact, this can also be reflected from the side that when Professor Wald was young, his research on this world was quite in-depth, and it can even be said that he understood many secrets of the world of Cthulhu.

Otherwise, why could Professor Wald become a professor of occult science at Miskatonic University?However, Barrett estimated that Wald's own spirit had also been greatly impacted.

After quickly wrapping the two books in an oilcloth, Wald obviously breathed a sigh of relief and sat opposite Barrett.

"I didn't expect that Mr. Barrett, your spirit is so strong. Have you really read these two books from beginning to end word for word, and you can use them in just a few days, and make a A magic circle that affects time, and that magic circle even made some changes and combinations of runes."

Barrett looked at Professor Walder and nodded.

However, at this time, Professor Wald's face began to show some flamboyant and even exaggerated smiles.

"I really didn't expect, Mr. Barrett, that you have such a good talent, a firm will, a typical use of words, and even a talent for literature. You were born for this wonderful world."

Hearing Wald say that Barrett has some doubts.

However, Wald put away his smile very quickly, looked at Barrett and said, "Although your judgment on Blackwater Island is not wrong, you still need to do this kind of thing more times." I remember that in your description, we arrived at Heishui Island more than ten days ago, so we can make an astronomical judgment based on this time period, and see how the astronomical phenomena were used that day. Which step?"

In fact, this is what Barrett wants to know, but Barrett does not understand astronomy, and on the day he entered Heishui Island, the starry sky in the sky was covered by black clouds, and Barrett could not see How many specific constellations are there?

"Mr. Barrett, then tonight we have to visit a doctor of astronomy from Miskatonic. After all, we need to know where the stars in the sky were orbiting more than ten days ago. This is very helpful for us. "

Barrett also nodded, which was one of the purposes of coming to Professor Walder's room.

Through this, Barrett and the others and the professors from Miskatonic University can determine where the stars in the sky have moved, and they can summon the city of R'lyeh.

In this case, there is a chance to prevent Cthulhu from awakening.
