In those days of Plants vs. Zombies

"Good night, Mr. Master of Manor No. 5905 and Ms. Wisdom Tree, it is an honor to meet you."

A tall and elegant lady walked out from the space crack of the teleporter.

She wore a large fortune teller's cloak and carried a spiritual lantern that emitted a bright light.

Her beautiful long brown hair was hidden under the hood of her cloak, and she exuded a noble and elegant temperament.

But on the other person's delicate face, there was a black eye mask, covering the eyes that should have been exposed.

"Welcome to Manor No. 5905, ma'am, what's your name?"

Mo Chen's gaze lingered on the other person's eye mask inconspicuously, and then he quickly looked away.

Wearing an eye patch, is there something wrong with my eyes? Can't see? Or is there some other reason?

Putting aside the doubts in his mind for the moment, Mo Chen responded to the other party's greeting.

On the contrary, when Xiaoda saw the other person's eye mask, she showed a very surprised expression.

"Christine Tarot, you can just call me Christine."

The lamp plant spirit named Christine nodded, and then introduced herself slowly in an ethereal voice:

"I am a fifth-level plant spirit of the street lamp flower. On the surface, I am a support soldier of the 59th Federal Army. In reality, I am a mystic scholar employed by the Federal Army."

"Support troops? Mystics?"

Upon hearing about Christine's identity, Mo Chen blinked, indicating that he was very interested in it.

Although the modern world is a world where technology and magic coexist, there are illusory things such as spiritual power and divine skills that are difficult to explain scientifically.

However, the overall development direction of the world is still mainly based on technology.

Words like mystics and mysticism sound like they are related to "magic", so how could Mo Chen not be interested in this?

"As occultists, we are able to explore the mysteries of the modern world through occult studies, that's all."

Christine bowed, and seemed to notice that Mo Chen was a little tired, so she activated her spiritual power and gently shook the lantern in her hand, releasing soft light from it.

In an instant, Mo Chen felt a sense of tranquility, which made him want to relax involuntarily.

"This is a small technique that our street lamp flower spirit learned while studying the mysticism. If you feel uncomfortable with it, please forgive my rudeness."

Christine explained, then stopped activating her spiritual power and put the released light back into the lantern.

"It's okay, Ms. Christine. This ritual is very interesting and it makes me feel much better."

Experiencing the wonder of the mysterious academic discipline firsthand, Mo Chen couldn't help but marvel at it.

"As long as you like, Mr. Landlord, I wonder if you have arranged a place for me to stay?"

"Of course, Ms. Christine, here is the key to the house, please keep it."

Mo Chen nodded, then took out a house key as usual and handed it to the other party.

But after a while, Christine didn't reach out to take the key. Mo Chen couldn't help but frowned, and then showed a surprised expression.

To verify his guess, he stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Christine's eyes.

"Ms. Christine? Are you... blind?"

"Well, you can say that, Mr. Master."

Christine's smile was still as peaceful as ever, as if blindness was not important to her at all.

······

Looking at the receding backs of Rosemary and Christine, Mo Chen had a strange look on his face.

The reason is simple, Christine is actually blind!

When Mo Chen thought about sending a blind street lamp plant spirit to fight, he felt really confused.

In desperation, Mo Chen handed the key to the house to Rosemary and asked her to take Christine to the house to settle down.

"How lucky!"

Xiao Da suddenly spoke, stopping Mo Chen, who was about to scold the Federation for being inhumane.

"What do you mean?"

"As you can see, Manor 5905 has found a treasure this time."

Xiaoda pointed in the direction where Christine left, the joy in her tone was self-evident.

“To put it simply, just like the Magnetic Mushroom Spirit is suitable for being a mechanic, the most suitable profession for the Streetlight Flower Spirit is a Mystic Scholar.

The spirit of the street lamp flower plant can be said to be a natural mystic saint, and has outstanding attainments in the field of mysticism.

There is a group of extremely talented lamp plant spirits who, in order to better delve into the occult, choose to destroy their own eyes, thereby acquiring a miraculous ability that we call "clairvoyance."

Through clairvoyance, the lamp plant spirit can peek into existence that cannot be seen in reality, such as frequencies and spirits.

Similarly, the street lamp flower spirit with clairvoyance is equivalent to stimulating its own mystical potential, and can better create and perform various mystical academic forms. "

The spiritual vision that Xiaoda mentioned reminded Mo Chen of the skill "Breaking Illusions" that his own doctor Angela selected on the first day.

But unlike the Delusion Breaking Skill which needs to be performed actively, and Angela is not an expert in this area at all, Christine, who has Clairvoyance as a passive skill, can be said to have won completely.

"But having psychic vision means giving up the ability to see normally, right?"

Recalling Christine's performance just now, Mo Chen expressed that he was a little worried.

“That’s true. After all, spiritual vision is a unique racial characteristic of the street lamp flower spirit, not a chosen skill without any side effects.

Therefore, in order to gain capabilities, a price is naturally necessary.

However, although the spiritual vision abandons the eyes, it enhances the other four senses, and can take care of oneself, but it is slightly weaker than that of ordinary people. "

Xiaoda's answer made Mo Chen feel a lot more relieved, but someone still had to take care of Christine.

"Miaomiao will have to work hard again. I hope she can hold on."

Mo Chen sighed and silently prayed for his beautiful elf girl for three seconds in his heart.

"But compared to her clairvoyance, what concerns me more about this Miss Christine is her background."

"origin?"

"Mo Chen, do you still remember what the other party said before he left?"

Facing Xiao Da's random questions, Mo Chen thought carefully and repeated the last words Christine said before she left:

“May the night light illuminate your path forward?”

"Yes, that's what I said!"

Xiao Da snapped her fingers and continued to explain:

"Night light does not refer to the light at night, but to a god whose full name is 'God of Night and Light'.

This luminous god is the object of worship and belief for many mystic scholars in the modern world. He symbolizes mystery, the unknown, and hope. At the same time..."

"At the same time what?"

Mo Chen was very unhappy about Xiao Da leaving her words half-sent.

My curiosity has been aroused, and I have to give a bad review if it is cut off directly.

“To believe in the Night Light God means that you will be regarded as a heretic by both the Burning Sun Cult and the Eclipse Moon Cult, and you must eliminate them.

Being able to bring the two opposing churches together on the same front, this luminous god is not as simple as he seems.

The reason why the believers of the Night Light God were able to fight against the scorching sun and the eclipsing moon is that we have to mention a special organization. "

"A special... organization?"

"Yes, an organization called the Mist Lantern Foundation."
