Old Master, have you ever been beaten by a Pokémon?

These tattered, yellowed and old pages are densely packed with detailed information that is full of mystery and resembles some kind of ancient ritual.

However, what was surprising was that there was no common obscure and difficult to pronounce special spell, but only a mark that looked very strange and bizarre.

The lines of this mark are twisted and entangled, like a coiled poisonous snake, exuding a chilling breath. There are also some strange symbols and patterns surrounding it, as if it hides endless secrets waiting for people to explore and interpret.

According to the paper, "If you want to successfully perform this ritual, you must first carefully prepare some generous benefits that are enough to tempt those filthy and evil creatures. Because these creatures have a certain degree of intelligence, if they happen to be hiding in the nearby area, once they realize that someone is trying to contact them through the curse, they will definitely come quickly.

Of course, as the person who initiates the contact, you need to pay a considerable price to gain control over these creatures... I have to say, this is an extremely strict prerequisite!"

This was the only part of the description of the ceremony on the entire page. After Liu Tianci carefully read the contents of these pages word by word, he couldn't help but frown slightly, with a solemn look on his face.

"Based on what's written here, this is clearly a contact book, and judging from its specific content, it can undoubtedly be called a summoning technique.

I just don't know what kind of creature with a certain degree of intelligence is mentioned here? Could it be the human-faced rat that I encountered before?"

Thinking of this, Liu Tianci couldn't help but ponder in his heart, and felt more and more that his speculation was very likely to be accurate.

When Liu Tianci thought about the fact that he had not paid special attention to the actual situation of the human-faced rat's nest, he couldn't help feeling regretful.

If I had been more careful back then, maybe I would have been able to get more useful clues and information when facing this mysterious contact book.

What exactly did he want to see? This question lingered in his mind like a mystery. Perhaps he longed to see the human corpses scattered in the corners and feel the breath of death and decay;

Or maybe, what he was thinking about was a special seal hidden in some unknown place, and that mysterious and powerful power made him fascinated.

Although my mind is full of speculations and imaginations, one thing is beyond doubt - these hideous monsters are by no means the result of sudden mutations in the current environment, nor are they the result of catastrophic consequences caused by the accidental leakage of some chemical agents.

They have existed for a long time, as if they have been lurking in this land for a long, long time.

How long is it? Hundreds of years, thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years? All of this is as elusive as a fog.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but curl his lips and muttered indifferently: "It's none of my business..." Then, he quickly closed the book, pulled the stool under him back, and his whole body suddenly jumped up like a flexible carp king and jumped lightly onto the bed.

As he moved, the old bed made a creaking sound, as if protesting his not-so-gentle behavior.

After earning enough money and having plenty of free time, Liu Tianci felt that he had to find some interesting entertainment activities to relax his body and mind. After all, being busy at work all the time was not in line with his life philosophy.

As a person who came from the old era, Liu Tianci is full of curiosity and desire to explore this new era. If there is one thing he is most eager to try, it is undoubtedly the various novel games unique to this era!

Whether it is the holographic simulation games that claim to bring a completely immersive experience, or those blockbuster games praised as cross-era masterpieces, each one makes him fascinated and eager to try.

So Liu Tianci, full of expectations, began to look for information about all kinds of popular games. But after a careful study, he was surprised to find that in this era of seemingly highly developed technology, there are so many restrictions in the field of games.

It turns out that many of the current popular games require players to connect through brain waves in order to successfully enter the game world and play.

The main purpose of having such strict regulations is to prevent the overly realistic gaming environment from causing adverse effects or even serious damage to the players' mental state.

However, as far as Liu Tianci is concerned, his mental state seems to be quite normal on the surface... well, or to be more precise, he behaves quite normal in most cases.

However, only he himself knew that if the spiritual power hidden in his body suddenly started to operate automatically and uncontrollably - even if it was only for a very short moment, it would probably cause the instrument used to detect the strength of mental power to explode instantly!

By that time, the consequences would be really unpredictable.

At that time, it is definitely not a matter of simply quitting the game to solve the problem! Maybe when he just took off his gaming helmet and looked downstairs, he would see several police cars parked there steadily, and a well-trained and well-prepared police team was ready to take him to a full-scale, full-body physical examination.

What should he do? Faced with such a difficult situation, Liu Tianci felt overwhelmed.

What else could he do? He could only quietly close the official game interfaces that looked interesting one by one.

After all, holographic simulation games are obviously out of reach right now, so why not try some real-life entertainment activities? After thinking about it, Liu Tianci decided to ask his friend Wang Dong for his opinion first.

So Liu Tianci called Wang Dong and asked straight to the point: "Hey, Lao Wang, what do you think people like me should do in our spare time?"

Wang Dong on the other end of the phone answered without hesitation: "Of course, it's playing games! Recently, a very popular game called "Red Dead Redemption 12" was released. I heard that it can allow players to experience the wild and free social atmosphere of hundreds of years ago as if they were there.

How about this? If you are interested, I have the best gaming pods and gaming helmets here, and they are the best on the market. But I have been so busy lately that I have no time to play with them. If you want, I can send them to you. "

Liu Tianci quickly shook his head and refused: "Oh, I don't play games... Do you have any suggestions that are closer to real life?"
