NOVEL SIMPLE Shepherd Tantra
Chapter 17 "The Shepherd's Tantra"
Chapter 17 "The Shepherd's Tantra"
Kingdom of Avalon, Glass Isle, White Queen District Inspectorate.
The Supervisory Bureau is still very busy this morning.
Dressed in light armor or leather armor, heroic men and women hurried past.On the wall of Commissioner Kent's office, there are still silver and white portraits of majestic dragons-the silver-crowned dragons are watching them all the time.
Now in his late 40s, Chief Kent sits in his leather chair, but still fit.
His back was straight, his rounded shoulders and arms propped up his loose clothes.The bronzed skin and the thick flesh on his face gave him the impression of a vicious and tough guy.A deep scar runs from above his left eye to his lip, and he wears a black eyepatch, making him look like a one-eyed pirate.
As a matter of ceremony and etiquette, even though Chief Kent, who has not participated in front-line combat for more than ten years, still has to wear armor to work, his sitting posture must be standard, and his demeanor must not be shaken in the slightest.His upper arms, abdomen, and lower legs, where the burden is not high, are all covered with silver-white armor made of metal.Elsewhere, shiny nails hung.
If he hadn't been a high-level Transcendent, I'm afraid he would be exhausted just sitting here all day.
As early as 420 years ago, Lancelot I, the founding monarch of the Kingdom of Avalon, established three major legal institutions.
The Supervision Bureau is in charge of "supervising and protecting the people", the Inspectorate is in charge of "supervising knight officials", and the Arbitration Hall is in charge of "judging right from wrong".At the beginning of its establishment, the status of these three legal agencies was equal to each other.The knights of the round table who can enter the senate hold important responsibilities.
The national emblem of the Kingdom of Avalon is a green eye nestled in a silver and white triangle that symbolizes power.
Eyes mean the royal family, symbolizing their old queen Sophia I who is nearly eighty years old and still healthy.
The silver triangle that protects the royal family refers to the Supervision Bureau, the Procuratorate, and the Arbitration Hall.
But with the development of the times, the Supervisory Bureau is responsible for more and more affairs.Taxation, safety, sanitation, fire protection, public security, inspection, imprisonment... So the Supervision Bureau has gradually divided into many sub-departments, and branch offices have to be established in various places, and a large number of trainee supervisors, supervisors and chief inspectors have to be recruited to be in charge Local affairs and power are thus shared.
The Procuratorate and the Arbitration Office have not expanded in scale because they have to deal with more difficult and specific matters.The former has become a kind of organization similar to a secret service agency—responsible for examining the loyalty of large and small officials, whether the hereditary knight family is morally deficient, whether grassroots supervision has violated discipline and regulations, and monitoring spies from other countries, or wandering abroad alone Gather intelligence; the latter became today's courts.
What they have in common is that they are now one level higher than the Supervision Bureau.
As a result, all talents who can reach the fourth energy level in the Supervision Bureau will be transferred to the Supervision Office and the Arbitration Hall.The euphemistic name is "You don't need this kind of talent anyway."Even in the core area of the White Queen District, which is adjacent to the glass steps, its director Kent only has the third energy level.
The young girl named Haina who was transferred recently was only in her early 20s, and her strength was already comparable to that of Chief Kent, who was now heading straight for the [-]th mark.
Kent didn't even need to think about it, he knew that the Inspectorate would definitely come to ask for someone.
This is the age of genius.Whether it's Haina or Sherlock... These new generation of geniuses are much stronger than the old people who grew up in the peaceful era.
This is not auspicious.thought Kent.
This may be a harbinger of troubled times...
He picked up the phone on the table and spun the roulette wheel. 0——1——2, the call is connected.
"Ask Haina to come to my office."
Director Kent ordered: "Also, find someone to call our consultant as well."
After hanging up the phone, he threw the "Glass Step Newspaper" on the table.He got up and walked to the bookshelf.
The front page of the newspaper was a photo of Haina and the young master of the Moriarty family.
The handsome young man with a gentle smile was sitting calmly in a wheelchair in elf art style, with a blanket covering his knees, his hands folded in front of his stomach, and he was talking about something in a gentle, natural and generous manner.Haina, who was standing behind him, stood upright, holding on to the hilt of the sword at her waist, her muscles tensed.
It seems to have noticed the photographer, and it seems to be greeting some acquaintances around the photographer.
Halfway through the boy's speech, his eyes suddenly shifted from the reporter to the direction of the camera.
He showed a gentle smile as bright as the sun, slightly raised his hand and waved towards this side.But it gives people a feeling of smiling and waving with the readers who are reading the newspaper.
The next moment, the scene jumped back to the beginning.Aiwass continued to sit in the wheelchair, speaking seriously to the reporter.
——This is the "magic painting" ability from the path of "beauty".
Logically speaking, the path of beauty is prohibited by law in Avalon, but Master Yanis is an exception.The "Glass Daily" founded by this world-renowned elf painter is the largest and only official newspaper in Avalon.
The Glass Daily is responsible for sorting out the most important information of the Kingdom of Avalon every day and presenting it to the royal family and the ministers of the Round Table Hall.The three major law enforcement agencies will also provide free "Glass Steps" for employees to read.
Maybe it was to follow the trend, maybe it was to keep up with the upper-level policies, or maybe it was just to express that he cared about the political situation of the kingdom.Some rich people who neither participate in politics nor work in office will also join in the fun and buy the "Glass Steps".Immediately afterwards, some college students will also buy it as a talking point between young students.
Although each issue has a "magic painting" with a cumulative duration of 15 seconds, and the material cost of each newspaper is as high as one red coin, its price is not high.Because Master Yanis doesn't need to make a profit from it. The retail price of the "Glass Steps" is only two red coins and five copper coins per issue-these five copper coins are still the profit of the distributors, and sometimes they are discounted.Anyone with a little respectability can afford it.
This kind of newspaper that can watch animation is a very novel experience.Although it has no sound and is in black and white.But at least the painting is dynamic - this is basically the cheapest way for ordinary people to really feel the extraordinary power.
In this issue of the "Glass Steps", Aiwass Moriarty on the front page alone occupies a full 12 seconds.Only three seconds left for a bike ad.
Director Kent was highly suspicious because Aiwass was too handsome and his smile was full of charm, so Master Yanis gave him 12 seconds.
"Smile is so pretty... It's not a good thing at first glance."
Director Kent pouted with a beast-like intuition, and muttered in a low voice: "I don't know whose girl I plan to harm..."
...However, he could see clearly.
Being able to solve such a big case on his own at this age, he will definitely become a big man far higher than himself in the future.
This time they picked up a big credit for no reason, and they must give enough rewards—originally, this kind of big job should be given to the Inspectorate, and it will not be their turn anyway.
Moreover, this is also an opportunity to hook up with Professor Moriarty.
So the chosen reward must be good enough, otherwise it would be rubbish to the Moriarty family.If you give away something that others don't like, you will lose the face of the Supervision Bureau.
...What a hassle.
"Priest of the consecrated way...a seminary student..."
Commissioner Kent murmured in a low voice, rummaging through the bookshelf.
Suddenly, his movements stopped.looked to a corner.
There lay a book with a dark cover and no name on the spine.
The director picked it up with one hand, and gently flicked the cover with the other hand.Sparks burst from the pages, like a hammer striking an anvil.
"This one might work."
He muttered in a low voice, reading the title of the book: ""The Shepherd's Tantra"...Looking at the name, it should be related to 'Priest'."
This entire bookshelf is a good thing that the people below collected when they seized the banned books.
The Kingdom of Avalon strictly forbids accepting bribes in various forms, because it is enough to shake the "authority".But on the other hand, proper profit-making within the purview is tacitly accepted.This is also to prevent officials and ministers from being bought by foreign spies when they are short of money, especially spies from the Star Wars Kingdom, or from selling important information and internal resources to the private sector.This will also shake the "authority".
One of the default profit-making methods includes selling the confiscated banned books to the knight family-from this point of view, this bookshelf can also be regarded as the personal property of Director Kent.
Kent is not a pioneer on the path of devotion, and he certainly cannot open this book.
But judging from the name and the sparks that shot out, this is a mysterious book belonging to the path of dedication.
After the superhumans die, their souls will fall into the "nine-forked river" in the dream world and flow to the farthest path they have traveled.The power in it becomes the "path characteristics" acquired by the latecomers in the advanced ceremony, and their memories and knowledge will be scattered all over the place, falling into the natural existence of flowers, fruits, clouds and waves in the dream world. , and became part of the material for constructing the dream world.
Those dream monks of the way of wisdom can capture and collect these endless and scattered secret knowledge from the dream world.
They will collect it and organize it into a book.This kind of mysterious tome that contains magical knowledge is called "Original Tome".
The "Original Code" is written in Gupta script.It is a kind of writing that has been extinct for a long time, and ordinary people cannot read it.This often requires translators of the local wisdom path to use mystical techniques to forcibly translate it before they can understand it.
According to the agreement in the translation circle, the original scriptures that record the knowledge of the dream world in Gupta script are all translated into a certain tantra.What the prefix is depends mainly on the translator's understanding of the content of the original text.
In a tantra, one can usually obtain a complete mysterious skill—although it may be reproduced by people in later generations, there is also a high probability that it will be a lost skill.
Although it may not be useful, it is lost after all.
In other words, it is something that cannot be obtained through normal means...
"Then as a prize and a 'gift', it is enough to have a reputation."
Commissioner Kent said to himself.
Finally got recommended!Today is more than 7000 updates, please follow up!
This book seems to have gotten off to a relatively smooth start, and it has already been bookmarked [-] times before it was recommended!If the grades of this book are good, it seems that I can write more!
