Chapter 15: The Terror of Extraordinary Knowledge
Data information occupied the entire phone screen, and seeing this for the first time was indeed quite novel for me.
Especially since my own gender is female now; it actually looks pretty good.
As I continued scrolling down to the talent section, I had no objections about Spirit Vision, since I knew about that ability myself. However, what is this so-called Floating World that follows?
Could it be a kind of term for Spirit Vision? I raised my head to look at Sister Bai with a hint of confusion.
“What’s wrong? This data is very brief. When you can control magic power, you can pull out and expand this information. A lot of detailed information has been omitted for now.”
At this point, Bai Yu suddenly thought of something and continued speaking.
“By the way, can you see your talents? If there’s anything besides Spirit Vision, Earth Vein Energy should record it accurately. If not, it means your talent isn’t an ability but something external, like dust or some kind of gas, which you just haven’t discovered yet.”
“Um… I do have one, but can talents really awaken such bizarre things? Dust, gas?”
“Well, there should be! After all, anything is possible when it comes to talent awakening. By the way, if you feel your talent is inconvenient to share, you don’t have to say it. After all, some lucky ones have talents that are extremely powerful, enough to be used as their trump card.”
“Like this… But my talent doesn’t seem special. It’s just a simple description: it’s… unparsed Extraordinary Knowledge. Sister Bai, do you know what that is? It should be related to memory, but—uh… uh!?”
As soon as I finished saying this, Sister Bai covered my mouth with her hand. Then, looking somewhat anxious, she glanced around before finally relaxing.
“Sorry, did you just say Extraordinary Knowledge?” Sister Bai whispered in my ear at this moment.
“Um… um.” Startled by her behavior, I subconsciously nodded.
Could it be that Extraordinary Knowledge is something really terrifying? I know nothing about it, and I don’t feel anything unusual at all.
“Listen to Sister Bai, don’t talk about this with anyone, and don’t mention it.” At this point, Sister Bai’s expression was unusually serious, her gaze fixed on me, making me feel creeped out.
“Okay, okay!” I hastily agreed. After all, such a serious matter I naturally wouldn’t take lightly; I’m just a newbie who has just stepped into the extraordinary world and understand nothing, so I obviously didn’t know about the so-called taboos.
“That… extraordinary… Is what I mentioned just now that serious? Is this thing not tolerated in the extraordinary world?” I whispered inquiringly, feeling like I’ve caused huge trouble for no reason.
“Not at all! That is a very precious thing. If you expose it, you definitely won’t be able to handle it, and you’ll attract trouble from then on! Do you want to live with that kind of trouble?”
“No!”
“If you don’t want it, then don’t say anything. Keep a low profile and make a fortune quietly.”
“Mm!”
I said seriously. If everything is really as precious as Sister Bai said, then I indeed might be in danger by possessing it. However, even so, I was truly moved that Sister Bai had no intention of taking this thing for herself!
She truly is the only sister I trust in this world!
Yet now I still couldn’t figure out what the so-called Extraordinary Knowledge is.
“Sister Bai, what is that thing? Will the knowledge taught in the academy not be that knowledge anymore?” I asked quietly, filled with curiosity.
“That’s different. Though people generally refer to all knowledge related to the extraordinary as Extraordinary Knowledge, yours is different. It’s the text that represents Earth Vein information, so it certainly isn’t ordinary knowledge.”
“Extraordinary Knowledge is a resource that is even more terrifying than normal descriptions of Extraordinary Power. Of course, its essence can be considered knowledge, knowledge that can be mastered and utilized. Extraordinary Knowledge crudely expresses the simple truth that mastering knowledge equals mastering power. It equates knowledge with power. Specifics, I’m not very clear on; after all, I haven’t had contact with this kind of content.”
Having said that, Bai Yu looked at me with envy and continued speaking.
“If you’re interested, you can check related materials in the academy library, but it’s best not to let others know. If they suspect you possess Extraordinary Knowledge, then it won’t be good.”
“Mm, I will be careful.” I nodded quickly, realizing the importance of this matter. This is probably a field I can’t touch in the short term. Even Sister Yu doesn’t know, and I estimate I won’t be able to figure it out either.
It seems this is a later-stage talent, and this Extraordinary Knowledge is still unparsed. I can’t use it right now.
After the discussion about talents, I became more cautious. It seems I shouldn’t open this data in public places in the future; otherwise, it might be seen by others.
However, although Sister Yu told me this information cannot be modified, it can be hidden. After all, everyone has their own secrets, and there are many things they don’t want others to see, hence this feature exists on the phone.
From this perspective, I need to quickly master that only Magic Source, since masking information on my phone requires using magic power to forcibly modify it manually.
Fortunately, kind-hearted Sister Bai has already helped me hide this talent.
Even so, this couldn’t change my desire to quickly manipulate the Magic Source. After all, being able to control magic power means I have mastered Extraordinary Power!
Moreover, right now I can’t control magic power and can’t even view my bodily data.
Sister Bai left me with an expectation, telling me that once I master magic power, I can personally unlock and view it. Although I’m very eager now, Sister Bai told me not to rush.
So… I shouldn’t rush.
Currently, my information shows there’s a task. Sister Bai said this task is linked to the notifications sent by the academy. The academy sends notifications to the phone, which some students might not see, so any notifications related to that student will appear in the data task in the form of tasks. Expanding the task allows you to view specific content, but unfortunately, I can’t view it now. However, since I have completed it, there’s no need to check it.
Now that enrollment registration and various processes are completed, I guess I should have nothing else to do.
For a moment, both Sister Bai and I felt a bit dazed, as if suddenly having nothing to do.
So what should we do next?
I subconsciously touched my stomach; I seemed a bit hungry?
“Are you hungry? It’s about time anyway. Shall we go eat something? Should we go to the academy’s cafeteria or to the snack street, or a small restaurant somewhere? This time it’s my treat to let you experience the deliciousness of the Witch Academy’s food!”
“Really! Are you sure it’s okay for you to treat me?” Although I was happy to be treated by Sister Bai, I still felt guilty since she has always been the one paying. It felt as if I owed her a huge favor.
That really made me uncomfortable.
“It’s fine! Who are we to each other? Why keep count? I know you’re tight on money right now; this time, it’s my treat, and later when you earn money, you can treat me!” Bai Yu casually said as she dragged me forward.
“Let’s go to the cafeteria first and see how the food there tastes.”
