Transcendent Dawn

Because classmate 'George' invited Murphy to play in the abandoned lumberyard after visiting the exhibition, when Murphy returned to his home, the shabby shack at No. 69 Black Iron Street, a round of purple moon had already appeared in the sky shadow.

Ziyue...

Murphy muttered, quickly quickened his pace, entered the house, closed the door, and then let out a long breath.

In legends, the purple moon is often equated with evil. An example is the thugs and murderers, who always like to act at night.

Therefore, humans in this world do not leave their homes at all when it is dark, unless necessary.

Murphy? Why are you back so late? What should you do if you encounter a 'black moon'?

A young woman's voice came from the cubicle. It was his sister Joanne.

The so-called 'black moon' refers to the few days when there is no moon at all. In the pure darkness, indescribable terror will be born, and the missing people will never find the slightest trace.

Sorry...sister, there is an event at school today...

Murphy lied instinctively, and first hurriedly took off the school uniform and hung it up.

This is the only piece of clothing he has that is still in good condition. He must hang it to dry every day when he returns home to prevent it from getting wrinkled, and he cannot wear it to school the next day.

There's still bread in the closet...

Joanne's voice came again, and she seemed to turn over immediately, and continued to sleep.

Murphy opened the closet and took out half a loaf of black bread, which was mixed with a lot of bran. It was very rough in the mouth and had to be soaked in hot soup to soften it before eating.

After thinking about it, he went to the stove to boil water, and had bread for dinner.

After barely fooling his stomach, Murphy came to his room.

There is only a bed and a table in the small room, and the two sides are very close together. The bed has replaced the role of the chair. Picked up the 'treasure'.

In addition, there are a few books that have been turned a little tattered, and the covers are crumbling.

Murphy lit the gas lamp and sat down on the bed.

Under the orange light, the names of the books are reflected:

A Brief History of the World

Some Simple Mechanical Introductory Knowledge

Standard Language

Night Exploring the Castle - A Collection of Stories of the Investigator 'Sauron'

...

His older sister, Joanne, was an amazing person. Using the savings left by her deceased parents and the money she earned from working hard, she sent him to Baixi Mechanical High School. All envious of things.

Once he can really graduate, he can become a junior mechanic. He doesn't have to be sent to the factory to work at a very young age like those friends. He was bent over by the heavy work early and got sick.

Murphy stared at the light, suddenly realized, and immediately opened Some Simple Mechanical Introductory Knowledge, compared the several discarded metal components in his hand, and started surveying and learning.

But a moment later, distractedly, he pushed what was in his hands onto the table, and his eyes flicked to the investigator's storybook.

Demons... really don't exist?

In the bottom of Murphy's heart, there has always been a little secret, he is an 'Extraordinary' with a high natural sensitivity!

When I was very young, I could see some strange things,

Hear something. starter

Even, the night when his parents 'disappeared'... he also saw it...

Thinking of this, Murphy couldn't help rubbing his forehead, with a painful expression on his face: I will definitely find the truth, I swear!

he muttered to himself.

But now Murphy is no longer in the mood to study mechanics hard, so he can only open some miscellaneous books.

He opened A Brief History of the World and read it quickly.

According to modern historians, the history of our world can be simply divided into Ziyue and before Ziyue... This is also the boundary between ancient history and modern history.

In ancient times, there was no purple moon in the sky, and there was no 'black moon phenomenon'. Until the first purple moon appeared, a large number of bloodthirsty creatures were born in the wilderness, which directly led to the demise of the ancient and glorious Babylonian Empire ...there is the end of ancient history.

After that, the purple moon calendar began, and human beings went through a very dark period, until the appearance of the famous mechanic and the founder of magic equipment, Master Chirfen, who created the first generation of magic equipment, and human beings have Gain the power to resist bloodthirsty creatures!

In the 223rd year of the purple lunar calendar, the Sumerian Empire was established, and magic weapon masters entered the heyday, with a glorious civilization of more than a thousand years... until 1567 of the purple lunar calendar, the famous 'rose coup' broke out, and the Sumerian Empire plunged into all-out civil war, and perish...

The time came to 1687, and three kingdoms were established from the ruins of the Sumerian Empire. They were the Kingdom of Surida in the north, the Kingdom of Sass in the west, and the Kingdom of Kingsley where I was.

These three kingdoms have each inherited a part of the legacy of the Sumerian Empire, carried forward it, and embarked on a different mechanical path. For example, the Kingsley Kingdom has perfected 'biomechanics' by generations of scientists, and made Mechanical prosthetics can perfectly replace the original flesh and blood organs, while the magic pattern technology in the Kingdom of Surida is the most developed, and the Kingdom of Sass is the most classical and conservative, but they have inherited the terrible legacy of ancient mechanics...

Countries use the power of machinery to maintain their rule and fight against monsters in the wilderness... For this reason, a special 'investigator' agency has also been established...

After reading, Murphy's expression gradually calmed down.

But... the monsters known to mankind are everything? Is there really no monster that is not made of flesh and blood? Then what is it that I see?

He murmured, yawned, turned off the gas lamp, and lay down on the bed.

When he was about to fall asleep, in a daze, Murphy seemed to see that Love in the Starry Sky again.

...

yawn……

early morning.

Murphy got up and stretched: Why do I feel so tired last night? Obviously I slept all night?

He touched his head and felt that his temples were swollen, and there seemed to be something more in his head.

Murphy came to the living room and found that Joanne was already making breakfast in an apron.

Seeing him, the other party's wine-red pupils suddenly became suspicious: Did you not sleep well last night?

Joanne seemed to have thought of something, and quickly ran to his room and lifted the quilt.

Sister... what are you doing?

Murphy was confused.

Ahem... I think it's necessary to discuss with you about the physical health of adolescent boys.

Joanne was very serious.

I... I'm just a little late in reading... Murphy replied with a guilty conscience for some reason. starter

Really? Then let me ask you, what are the building blocks of the secondary circuit magic patterns?

Stable! And enough white tin essence!

Murphy blurted out and saw Joanne's surprised eyes.

He himself was also very surprised, because this was knowledge he hadn't mastered yet.

Suddenly, he understood what was in his head.

That is knowledge!
