Chapter 527 The old mage’s advice
"Welcome, Master Carmen."
Chen Lun and the old master walked side by side on the church path at night. He tilted his head slightly and said politely with a smile:
"You are the only high-ranking saint in the team. There will be a lot of trouble in your place in the future. I hope you don't mind."
"It's okay."
Carmen waved her hands and sighed again.
"Actually, I also understand the teacher's intention. He is right. Although I have been promoted to a high position for hundreds of thousands of years, most of that time has been spent on the pursuit of knowledge and the study of magic... There are still many things in this world that I don’t understand, and I need to rely on experience to know them.”
"Read thousands of books, travel thousands of miles, get rid of the dust in your chest, and naturally camp in the hills and valleys."
Chen Lun nodded and said a certain famous saying from the old times.
Master Carmen was a little surprised.
He understood the meaning in an instant and nodded in agreement.
"Succinct and to the point, it's true."
"By the way, Master Carmen, you are very knowledgeable. I just have some questions. I hope you can answer them for me."
Chen Lun stopped and said while holding the ivory white cane transformed from the Iron Crown.
Carmen did not refuse, she chuckled and said:
"I'll tell you anything I can answer, Jack."
Chen Lun nodded, remained silent for a moment, organized his words and then said:
"Actually, a long time ago, based on the 'Law of Extraordinary Asymmetry', I realized a truth, that is, after absorbing and borrowing knowledge from adjacent pathways, and by analogy, I will gain more powerful power... Previously, I got Ms. Frederic With your permission, I was able to stay in the Meteor Tower for a week to study. Although the time was short, I benefited a lot, which made me even more convinced of this truth.”
He raised his head and frowned slightly.
"But conditions are limited now. If I want to further develop my high-level abilities, do you have any suggestions?"
"You're on the right track, Jack."
Carmen nodded.
"I learned from the teacher's secret handbook that the sun, moon and stars are adjacent to each other, which is the road to the starry sky; flesh and blood are adjacent to conspiracy, which is the road to filth; the earth and the deep sea are adjacent to each other, which is the road to snail oblivion. , fate, nature and magic are adjacent, a path of joy and sorrow..."
The old mage took a deep breath, his cloudy eyes seemed to be thinking, or reminiscing, and asked slowly:
"Do you know why only these ten paths to God have been passed down to this day in the past five epochs?"
"Because there was a true god at the end of them, which is enough to prove the authenticity of becoming a god?"
Chen Lun asked tentatively.
The old mage smiled and shook his head.
"This statement is too superficial... In fact, it is because only these ten paths can converge into four avenues, just like an upside-down tree. When the branches meet, they can be connected to form a pillar trunk... This also indicates that the combination After the adjacent path, you will indeed have power far beyond this path!”
Carmen raised her hand and held up an example.
"Actually, since ancient times, you are not the only one who has had similar thoughts. In fact, many people have had it, and even tried it... But the vast majority of people have failed, and there are only a very few who have succeeded, and they have often already Became an eternal existence...such as the cat god Maggie Mirna, who integrated the power of magic, and the god of murals Clarenzo, who once controlled the power of fate."
Chen Lun couldn't help but take a deep breath.
I was a little surprised inside.
‘So, the reason why I have always been successful is actually because I took advantage of the panel... It simplified the complex for me, simply and crudely skipped the trial and error and study parts, and gave me the results directly? ! ’
he thought to himself.
'That's right... From the passive skill [The weak can eat the strong] that was first learned from natural knowledge, to the [Magic Flying Card] that was later integrated with magic knowledge, and even the two ultimate skills [Earth-Retracing Sky Sealing] and [Destiny] Death], it's all like this...I can rely on the panel to continue along this line of thinking and become stronger and stronger! Gain power far beyond that of ordinary fate-based extraordinary beings! ’
Old Master Carmen looked at his expression and seemed to have guessed something, so he said:
"If you want to learn magic knowledge from me, that's not impossible, but I belong to the 'Idol School' of the teacher's lineage, and the knowledge I have is concentrated in this field, which may be a little limited for you. …My suggestion is that you’d better learn basic knowledge systematically and then gradually advance to the next level. Only in this way can you have a clearer idea of the direction you want to pursue and gain inspiration.”
"[Basic Principles of Magic] doesn't count?"
Chen Lun asked doubtfully.
Carmen smiled.
"That's just a drop in the ocean of basic knowledge. The teacher asked you to master it at that time just to be able to better teach [Fred Cui Seal]... Fortunately, you are now a high-ranking saint, and your learning ability and efficiency are better than ordinary people. I don’t know how much, but this can save a lot of time.”
He looked towards the north, pondered for a moment and said:
"Jack, maybe you can go to the Byron Kingdom in the far north and find a magic academy for further study. There is the headquarters of the Madman School. As the Church of the Righteous God, they have particularly strong resources and accumulation, which is enough to help you complete further ability development. .”
"Is this so..."
Chen Lun couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
He applied to be transferred out of the royal city and came to the remote Lengye City, not only to avoid the dangerous whirlpool there, but also with the intention of settling down... Now that he has received the old mage's advice, he is somewhat moved.
'I have already complied with His Majesty Oscar's request to inherit Duke Huan's last wish and kill the Seven Gods... Maybe this matter is still far away and needs to be worked out slowly, but no matter what, strength is the foundation, I can't Staying where I am... and not long after, I will participate in Conrad's "Murder Feast" to deal with the flesh angel Dolomy Pulnis. I need to improve myself as much as possible, no matter whether I succeed in the end or not, At least you must have enough self-protection capabilities! ’
After Chen Lun thought for a while, he raised his head and said to Carmen:
"Thank you for your suggestion, Master Carmen. I think this is a good choice... Then I may prepare for a few days, and then leave Lengye City next week, leaving only the avatar sitting in the church. I will trouble you to worry about it then."
"It's okay... Just ask someone to prepare a quiet research room for me. I will usually stay in it. If there is any major situation that your incarnation cannot handle, just leave it to me. ”
Carmen smiled and said.
Chen Lun held the brim of his hat and nodded towards him.
"Thank you."

Spiritual world.
Polaris Team is moving forward.
For seven or eight days in a row, they focused their energy on Wonderland, constantly clearing the hidden copy "Jack's Past". At present, "Prologue: Red Apple Dungeon" has basically been cleared, and "Chapter One: Bone Gallery" was also cleared yesterday. After three weeks, I got an S-level rating.
Now Polaris has finally reached the full level of 80, and has gathered the extraordinary knowledge of Destiny Sequence Six [Trapeze], and is preparing for promotion. Noutou Jin, Su Keying, Wei Yin and others were also successfully promoted to Sequence Seven.
The current Polaris team, with the exception of Dragon King and Bald Tutu, is already in the middle of the rankings. The average level is around level 55. Their combat effectiveness is extraordinary and they can be called the top high-player team in the player circle.
They are planning to hunt a few waves of polluted creatures in the spiritual world to increase their contribution to the main mission.
"Be careful, the scene has changed again."
Dongyang walked in the front and said in a deep voice.
Everyone nodded and looked around.
However, after the azure vision was distorted for a while, the new scene that appeared in front of them made them stunned.
What I saw here seemed to be a dilapidated square, with old cracked slate bricks scattered on the ground, a low wall erected around the edge, and a brazier lit on top for lighting.
Directly in front, the floor was filled with recently dead polluted creatures. A huge lizard that looked like a mini-BOSS, with burn marks all over its body, had its head decapitated by a big knife and was lying in a disgusting pool of blood.
More than a dozen players were standing there. Some were packing up the loot on the ground, while others were chatting and laughing in low voices. The leaders were two men and one woman.
"Huh?"
One of them turned his head and was surprised when he saw the Polaris team, and immediately showed a meaningful smile.
"What a coincidence. Isn't this Brother Beizi who is number one on the list of the 'Strongest Sanren'...and my old acquaintance Brother Gouzi and the Forgotten Boss."
This person's ID is "Lan Shi", and he is a young man with blond hair and blue eyes.
"Old acquaintance?"
Goutoujin raised his eyebrows, but he really had no impression of this person. His good friend Wang Wangwuji thought of something, frowned and asked:
"Are you a rotten persimmon? Didn't your account get deleted? I heard that your contract with the guild was terminated."
"It seems you still remember me, Boss Forget."
Lanshi smiled, wiping her bloody hands with a handkerchief, and said to the two of them:
“That account was indeed abandoned, and I did leave ‘God’s Love’, but I was unwilling to accept it. Why did the character I started as Tianhu end up being imprisoned in an immortal prison and unable to stand up...”
He shook his head, feeling a little emotional.
"I don't believe in evil! So I took advantage of the opportunity to 'rebuild the archive' and opened this new account... Unfortunately, I had fallen behind for a long time at that time. I could only level up hard, catch up silently, and read forum posts every day, looking for Any clues that can be mined... Looking at you dominating the entire version, I am not envious, but I know that sooner or later I can catch up."
Lanshi threw away the handkerchief, spread her hands and smiled:
"Guess what? There is no shortage of visionary people in this world. The Lost Name Guild later offered me a hugely expensive contract and trained me as a reserve sign... Do you think you are the only lucky ones in this game? Wrong! There are many!”
His expression gradually turned cold.
"Speaking of which, a large part of the reason why my account was abolished was because of the actions of you two big brothers... I originally wanted to secretly develop for a while and then become a blockbuster, but since I encountered it today, let's just take it You can use it as a stepping stone! It will definitely be very topical to defeat the high-ranking team!”
After saying that, his fists ignited high-temperature flames, drawing a scorching trajectory towards the Polaris team. (End of chapter)
