My Weekly Refreshing Mentor Spirit-Chapter 282 - 265: A World Like the Caste System

The young general hated seeing this kind of tragic world and the suffering of the mortal world.

Especially when, under such a tragic world, people willingly succumb to depravity, and he temporarily had no particularly good way to solve it.

He knew he wasn't the type to think deeply, so he always saw himself as a function-focused strong attacker. After seeing this world, if forced to stay in the Divine Capital, he'd probably just sit here sulking and do nothing else.

Besides, his ability was related to space, making support and return trips very quick.

So after some discussion, the two decided to part ways. Xue Dili planned to travel across the Teaching Country, while the young general decided to head to the Great Demon Beast Forest in search of the Beast King there, mainly those quasi-Tier 5 Demon Beasts that possessed a certain level of intelligence.

Ideally, those with enough intelligence to start evolving toward the Venerable King, that is, the Demon Beasts beginning to "transform".

Ironically, the top tier of the Demon Beasts began attempting transformations, while many humans on this side began to devolve, even to the point of becoming Half-Beastmen.

Before leaving, the young general gave Xue Dili the Heart of the World he held.

[Heart of the World (A-Class): A core of a destroyed world, it can be used as a small world. Any enemy that invades and attacks you will be first absorbed by this small world. Unless they have abilities on a world-class level, they will never be able to leave.]

Xue Dili began trying to analyze this Treasure.

The Modifier's hand-crafted Treasures are more like a process of "replicating" the original Treasure, and the specific degree of replication depends on Xue Dili's level.

The original Cursed Blood had been used too much, and he remembered every detail of the Treasure, plus having "Fake Curse Blood" as a reference, so Xue Dili could replicate Cursed Blood with similar performance to the original.

But he hadn't yet reached that level of proficiency with other Treasures.

As for replicating this Heart of the World with a prototype...

After sweating it out for several hours, Xue Dili looked at the item in his hand.

[Heart of Man·Fake (C-Class): A false core that can absorb and trap attacks that invade the body first, with the trapping time determined by the opponent's strength.]

Well, at least the mechanism is roughly the same; it's just that the values differ significantly.

Seeing what Xue Dili had crafted after a long time, the young general quipped from the side, "Bro, your hand skills are much worse than your teacher's."

"You know my teacher?" Xue Dili looked at the young general and handed back the Heart of the World.

"I don't know him, but seeing that teleportation gate inside you and the large panel, I can probably guess who it is. Although he's not one of us, he's someone written about in our history books." The young general crouched on the ground, looking up at the sky as he spoke,

"Bro, when you can manually modify the legacy he left behind, that's probably when you'll be ready to graduate."

Xue Dili: "..."

Back in the day, the Great Sage told him that around Tier 5, his knowledge level would allow him to modify that device.

His current level was still far off.

Not to mention crafting this system by hand, even his one-to-one replica of the Heart of the World could only replicate something like this.

The young general carefully put away the Heart of the World, placing it in his bosom with great caution.

"By the way, do you have any organizations dedicated to recovering Treasures?" Xue Dili continued to ask.

"Yes, bro, yes." The young general replied, "That place is called the Heroic Spirit Tomb, located inside the Simulated Venerable King. It's where the Treasures of our predecessors are placed, so applying for them is quite troublesome." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

"The Treasures of the predecessors?" Xue Dili's head suddenly ached.

He suddenly remembered that he had blown up the Holy Sword of Uncle Brave.

"Yeah, at the beginning, our organization had a tough time. It was very difficult to train newcomers and gain enough combat power and self-protection means." He added, "Later, our predecessors solved the self-protection issue through an emergency contact device, and then by leaving behind their Treasures for us reserves to borrow power from, which allowed the later development to grow."

Xue Dili: "..."

The term "borrowing power" really is quite apt.

The predecessors condensed their achievements and dreams into Treasures and paved a whole new path for the later generations.

Although it does seem a bit like the successors are just borrowing power by wielding the Treasures of the predecessors, your scientists could even consider replicating Treasures and then merging multiple replicated Treasures at once to borrow multiple predecessors' powers in one go.

The main feature of borrowing power is that it's quick to master, like this young general who just reached Tier Four and can quickly master to the point where no one can catch him.

Then I need to find some time to piece together Uncle Brave's Holy Sword.

Back to the topic.

The two of them wandered through the Magic School, just as the girl had said, pregnant girls could be seen everywhere in the academy. They didn't even shy away from showing off their big bellies, reciting magic spells under the sunlight.

Some of them, while being pregnant, even winked at Xue Dili and his companions.

The young officer's face grew darker.

As they walked along, they hardly saw any boys, which made him even more silent.

"The gender ratio in this world is more ridiculous than in mine," he said.

"In a world that values life, the reproductive value of males is much lower than that of females. As you said, most boys are hung on the Divine Tree as soon as they are born. They have no future, no life of their own. The remaining children are either those with a little mage talent, used for breeding to improve the gene pool, or females who can provide future reproductive value..." Xue Dili said.

"It's like the process of breeding livestock. Even when they realize something's wrong, they can't resist, because the sparks of resistance... were already made to be brothers on the Divine Tree as soon as they were born."

"You can't expect the noble gods of the world, the merchants among ordinary people, the majority of civilians who have been indoctrinated with reproductive value since childhood, or the few boys who fight tooth and nail just to survive, to resist. They simply don't have the capability."

They continued to stroll.

Perhaps the young officer hadn't seen enough of the world's misery; he was perpetually angry, always engulfed in a deep sadness.

"I finally understand what you meant when you said why the Heart Stealers are so clever." The young officer stopped, pointing towards the towering buildings of the Divine Capital in the distance, where the world aristocratic gods resided, "To keep the lower classes trapped in endless internal strife is the best and most despicable way to rule, isn't it?"

"Yes, during the era of the Angels' rule, although it still looked very bleak from our perspective, at least the common people could ascend through becoming missionaries or mages. But now, even large-scale degeneration is occurring among civilians, who can only hope for minuscule genetic mutations."

"I'm leaving now, brother. Be cautious over here, use the emergency contact device if any problems arise, don't hesitate to use it, I'll rush over as fast as I can, and reinforcements will arrive soon." The young officer stopped, advising Xue Dili, "And lastly, don't use your real name."

"Alright, alright, I'm the indomitable King of the Stars, don't underestimate my Life Force," Xue Dili jokingly replied.

With that, they parted ways, bumping fists, and the young officer used Space Jump to leave. He was headed for the Great Demon Beast Forest to find and rally those demon beasts who once lost to humans in battle.

Xue Dili looked off towards the Magic Academy and then made his way to the dormitory.

He decided to spend the remaining time of the day at this academy, walk around the entire Divine Capital on the next day, head towards the direction of the Teaching Country to the north of the Divine Capital on the third day, to the west on the fourth, southwards on the fifth, east on the sixth, and finally, on the seventh day, he would halt and rest for a day, setting up the complete Innovation Era.

A very crude ritual method, incomparable to the means laid out by Zeus over thousands of years.

However, strangely enough, in Zeus's arrangement, Typhon, as the Lord of Demon Beasts, took up the role of the "Shadow" in light, corresponding to Satan in Hell from Genesis.

In Xue Dili's forthcoming Innovation Era, the young officer was heading to the Demon Beast Forest to rally all the demon beasts, borrowing their strength.

Perhaps it's just a coincidence, thought Xue Dili.

Even without the young officer, the one heading to the Demon Beast Forest might be a disguised Angel. Nevertheless, Xue Dili was concerned about the Angels' mental state, so he left it to the young officer.

Just as well, he didn't want to stay in this Teaching Country.

Thus, he left it to Xue Dili here.

Back at the dormitory, the dorm supervisor noticed and said, "By the way, congratulations on your successful promotion to official mage status, you'll be moving to a better dormitory now."

Xue Dili and the young officer exchanged places with two brothers who considered themselves semi-noble rich kids, their ancestors having had divine blood, thus they had corresponding family connections responsible for coordinating the transportation of goods between cities in the structure of this Teaching Country.

After the gods obtained the materials, these split families were in charge of transporting the goods to other cities.

For the true world aristocratic gods, they were merely the dogs of the split families, but for the commoners, they were considered nobles.

Almost similar to the caste system of a certain Eastern Great Country.

The gods were Brahma, the split families were Kshatriya, civilians were Shudra, while the degenerate humans and half-beastmen were thoroughly the Dalit (slaves and untouchables).

And mages, automatically became Kshatriya, this is why those girls would go to great lengths, even selling their reproductive rights for decades, just to stay in the Magic Academy.

Truly, there's nothing new under the Venerable King.

As Xue Dili opened the door to the new dormitory, the sound of bathing came from inside, accompanied by a faint fragrance, leaving Xue Dili slightly startled.

He twitched his mouth, already guessing what was going on, immediately set up a Barrier and stood outside the door, ignoring everything external. Taking this time he documented what he saw and heard in the "Innovation Era."
