Wizard: I Can Synthesis Everything-Chapter 410 - 345: Earning Big on Presales_2
Chapter 410: Chapter 345: Earning Big on Presales_2
Lin Suo’s eyebrows twitched.
"So exaggerated? Then why didn’t it kill me when I provoked it earlier?"
"Maybe you’ve already been affected. For certain beings it finds interesting, it tends to simply devour all their knowledge and turn them into ’Slaves of Fantasy’, forever under its control."
Without realizing it, Lin Suo touched the back of his head.
This was indeed a big problem; he wondered whether that undead who played with memories was also unwittingly ensnared by its schemes.
"Let’s leave it at that for now. I’ll teach you a Void Secret Technique, which you can use to check if you’ve been invaded by the power of the Void."
"Thank you."
"Don’t mention it. As long as you can capture it, all these efforts are worthwhile."
The light from the Absurd Ring flickered, and the projection vanished.
A virtual text of secret knowledge written in Void script surged into Lin Suo’s mind. As a master of linguistics, even though he hadn’t systematically studied the language of the Void.
But with his strong foundation and Frey’s power aiding him, he understood the text’s meaning quite easily.
"Void·Illusionless Technique."
This was a secret technique to empty the mind and body to achieve a state of extreme comfort, originally a type of release from the bodily burdens after continuous evolution by Void creatures.
Used on other beings, it’s suitable for recovery after one’s body has been excessively strained, and it could indeed be employed for self-examination.
Especially effective in detecting the invasion of foreign forces, particularly discrepancies in memories.
After tipping off the Black Emperor.
Lin Suo sat cross-legged on the sofa, a bright purple point of light emerged three inches above his head, continuously showering down purple sparkles upon Lin Suo.
That sense of comfort as if returning to the womb.
Surpassed all physical sensations, an ultimate indulgence and relaxation.
"What a pleasure-seeker."
He muttered a slight complaint to himself, but soon Lin Suo realized that there was nothing abnormal with his body, yet his brain felt a bit off. A thin pink-purple line extended from the base of his brain.
Straight up into the Heavenly Vault, inserting itself into the Void and disappearing!
This was precisely the spot he had previously felt was amiss. He had indeed been affected...
And this whole ordeal with knowledge disappearance.
He had tried it once before in the Space-Time Illusion Realm at the Fire Transmitter tower.
The Legendary Mysterious Artifact "Fire of Truth" is said to solve extremely difficult problems by burning knowledge, which contributed over 70% to the smooth development of the Wizard Path.
Its existence solved too many problems.
The "Knowledge Worm" and the "Fire of Truth" seem to have a strong complementarity; one devours knowledge while the other burns knowledge. If the Knowledge Worm’s accumulation of knowledge is endless, couldn’t the Fire of Truth be kept alight indefinitely?
Maintaining oneself in a super-brain state, no puzzles or difficulties could stop a wizard imbued with the "truth."
Even just thinking about that state was tremendously exciting.
And the "Fire of Truth" being a Mysterious Artifact created by the Fire Transmitter, the appearance of the "Knowledge Worm" mentioned by Ivis in Padolon was very intriguing.
When he participated in that era of history, the Fire of Truth was already at the Legendary level, and the worm had no trace then - or perhaps it was already present.
Hiding in the dark was the specialty of this worm, after all.
Upon discovering the issue with himself, Lin Suo tried various types of witchcraft to sever this connection, to no avail.
Whether it was Elemental Witchcraft, the most destructive Death Witchcraft, or even Spiritual Witchcraft, nothing affected the connection in the slightest.
This was a blow to him, no doubt.
Lin Suo had faced numerous ups and downs as he grew, but never the pressure of life and death; whenever he faced any situation, he was always prepared with a contingency plan.
But this time.
If he wasn’t successful, there seemed only one outcome.
His face grew incredibly grim every time he thought about it.
Half an hour later.
Lin Suo’s travel group ring received a communication invitation, which must be that Frey had come to an arrangement.
Member number four of the travel group, Void God Seat·Gelontino!
Its appearance resembled that of a Lamp God, with the lower half a smoky swirl dotted with stars, while its upper half, including its head, seemed like a condensed paper-sized piece of a universe’s starry sky.
One could even see the slowly revolving bright galaxies on its face.
Extremely mysterious.
"Dream Bottle, False Tears, True Word Secret Lock, Dust of Slumber."
"Boundary Ring Rhein, ready to receive the items teleported from the Star Realm."
Without any pleasantries, Void God Seat·Gelontino was more like the Immortal that Lin Suo imagined, and the so-called Star Realm Teleportation was also a cross-world item transportation ability that only he could accomplish.
Not long after.
A group of dazzling, dreamy mist appeared in front of Lin Suo, from which four items fell out, landing in his hands.
"Transaction completed."
"Wait..."
Lin Suo hurriedly called out.
"Elder Gelontino, what price would I need to pay if I want to obtain the Star Realm secret techniques?"
"You want to learn the power of the Star Realm?"
"Yes."
According to Frey, only the power of the Star Realm could deal with special existences like the Knowledge Worm, and it was not beneficial to flounder at the moment of battle.
Learning a bit, no matter how little, was always useful.
There is indeed the existence of a Star Realm Wizard within the Wizard System, but such wizards belong to a rare species, generally quite powerful, wandering the Star Realm year-round, and seldom train successors.
Corresponding knowledge is also relatively scarce.
However, the collection of Void God Seat·Gelontino must be extraordinary; as a member of the Absurd Travel Group, such an investment-like trade would actually be agreed upon by everyone.
After all, they are considered nurturing one of their own kind.
"If possible, I hope to obtain a piece of Knowledge Worm’s body, and as the price, this "Star Realm Secret Treasure" will be paid to you in advance."
"Thank you, Elder Gelontino."
Before the words fell, the projection of Void God Seat·Gelontino had already disappeared, and from the magical mist, a giant ancient tome about half the height of Lin Suo dropped once again.
He stared agape at it.
This time it was a big win; even before catching the worm, he had already gained so much in advance. Should he contact more members of the Travel Group? Pre-sell multiple times???
Upon careful consideration, he decided against it; after all, it’s not guaranteed to happen.
In case of failure, there would be no good way to wrap things up.
If the Knowledge Worm truly has the pinnacle strength of the Wizard Path, all his calculations would be useless.
He could only hope for a cognitive flaw.
The method proposed by Frey wouldn’t even work on a normal wizard, let alone this special worm; clearly, it wasn’t very smart, or it was being controlled by its instincts.
There were all sorts of possible odds, requiring extra caution.
Even studying, how to make himself seem more harmless?
When it comes to luring.
Lin Suo’s first reaction was himself, and so he would need a helper.
Nighttime.
Study.
"Your Highness Black Emperor, what do you think of my proposal?"
Regarding whether to cooperate with Lin Suo to capture the Knowledge Worm, the Black Emperor was particularly hesitant, as the creature was clearly enticing.
After a long silence, he still sighed.
"I’m sorry, Rhein, I just want to resolve the current troubles quickly. If you trust my word, the Red Queen is actually a good choice. The power she possesses is rather special and might be helpful..."
"The Red Queen?"
The scene from the daytime surfaced in Lin Suo’s mind, and he decisively shook his head; he wasn’t comfortable trusting his life with such an erratic person.
Even with special abilities, it was not possible.
The main reason for being able to cooperate with the Black Emperor was that the two had a special relationship in the Travel Group, being a guide and a newcomer, and there had been a successful collaboration before.
So the trust level was relatively high, but the Red Queen was out of the question.
"If that’s the case, then I’ll take my leave now, I need to resolve this as quickly as possible."
"Alright, I wish you all the best."
"Hopefully."
The search for an assistant would have to continue.
Leaving it to the Titan Avatar was not very secure; if the main body fell into some kind of trouble and was unable to control the avatar, that would be the end.
The current Thunder God Avatar also needed to return to the Material Realm to hand over everything to the main body.
Accompanied by the brilliance of the Demon Portal, the Thunder God Avatar disappeared into the Abyss.
The operation to entrap was about to commence.
