Chapter 48 The Librarian

"Okay, Misty City welcomes you~"

The result came so smoothly that Yevka turned his head to look at Arthur with some confusion.

He did not hide his ulterior motives. Unlike Torzner, who had a pure purpose, it was impossible for them to cooperate from the beginning. It was just mutual use forced by the situation, and the "deal" was already packaged.

Praiseful words.

The contradictions between the many old gods in the starry sky and the main god of the earth are difficult to reconcile.

Yevka needs Arthur's strength.

And Arthur needs time.

By accepting the deal, both parties get what they want.

But if he refuses... Arthur's loss will be unbearable. Once the identity of his old incarnation is confirmed, the situation will be much worse than that of the "Primordial Moon" and the "Bound God", who were corrupted by the old and turned into a puppet, and

It is essentially different from the incarnations of gods in the past.

Arthur did not reject this option.

Not only no, he couldn't even set out conditions that would benefit him directly.

Facing the half body of the front pillar, proposing similar conditions will inevitably reveal important information about oneself and become a sharp knife that will eventually stab one's vitals.

No matter how much you try to disguise yourself, it's useless.

For Yevka, as long as he can maintain his sanity, even if he is trapped in the foggy city, he can gradually make the "true creator" escape from madness and return to the stage of history.

By that time, they will inevitably become enemies.

This is a generous transaction, and it is a letter of challenge unique to the king.

As part of the symbol of "order", it is inevitable that Arthur will agree, but he should not be so quick.

Knowing what Yevka was wondering about, Arthur smiled even more happily as he materialized two pale golden contracts and sent them over. Then he took the automatically assembled food of bread, vegetables, barbecue and sauce and continued to eat. The round shape in the center of the table

On the baking sheet, the ingredients for the fully automatic barbecue are dancing happily.

Glancing at the ballet's secret beef, Yevka deeply understood Arthur's bad taste.

The two contracts before Him were choices.

The content is very simple. It is a minimalist version of an outside house rental contract. The lease period is five years and cannot be canceled early. Apart from absolute penalties for breach of contract, there are no compensation clauses. The only difference is the different identities.

Temporary residents of Misty City, and librarians.

Neither identity will be subject to additional constraints.

Temporary residents of Misty City have Level 1 authority. They need to find a job to support themselves and take care of their own food, clothing, housing and transportation. If they want higher authority rational laws to maintain their sanity, they can just spend their contribution to buy it, but the contract and lease will be invalidated at the end of the term, and they cannot participate in the guardianship.

After the knight assessment, naturally you cannot leave the Mist City.

As a library administrator, you have level 3 permissions. You have your own job and residence, both in the Wheat Library. You can exchange for a large amount of contributions by compiling books for Mist City. The permissions also need to be purchased, but when the contract lease expires, it will only be sealed and will not be invalidated.

You can leave Mist City with level 9 permission.

After reading the two contracts, Yevka looked thoughtfully at Arthur, who was minding his own meal.

The librarian was the choice given to Him.

But what book to compile?

Who is it for?

What kind of compilation is this? It is just a book that asks Him to carry the prehistoric earth. His occult knowledge may be very precious on the earth, but it is not for the real old people. They are born to stand at the end. How to get from the starting point?

They don't need the method of starting and walking towards the end step by step.

What is the significance of having access to prehistoric earth data?

Does it possess partial "historical" and "knowledge" authority?

not understand.

But you don’t need to understand it now.

Picking up the contract from the librarian, as the former "God" who had been in charge of the "sun", He could easily analyze all the details of the contract. Although no loopholes or traps were found, He still did not sign his name.

, instead opened up a new topic and said:

"I heard from Caesar that maintaining my status requires at least level 8 permissions. This is the upper limit for residents of Misty City. Higher permissions can only be obtained by becoming a guardian knight. I can't earn these more than 6 million sky-high contribution points. Tell me.

, I need to pay something."

It seems that I have been waiting for this topic for a long time.

Arthur, who had just finished drinking the iced fruit tea in one gulp, continued with a smile and said:

"I want to cultivate three angels in the 'Audience', 'Hunter' and 'Craftsman' paths. They still lack extraordinary characteristics. I'll give you a friendly price. One Sequence 2 Extraordinary Characteristics will count as your contribution of 3 million. You can also help Mist."

You must know that all the pioneers who returned alive have made a fortune, and you, the angel incarnation, may be able to earn all your contributions in one go."

Of course, there is still only one choice.

Yevka discovered another personality trait of Arthur.

Hold a grudge!

Only by relying on the rational laws of Caesar's 8th level authority can he stay sane. He cannot choose to expand the territory. He has no time and no energy. The advance of the rational laws with 8th level authority also requires contributions. For him, the Mist City's

A loan contract is not a good option.

Expensive and not worth it.

Yevka shook his head with a gentle smile. After signing his name on the contract, he expressionlessly twisted off his left thumb. The broken flesh and blood squirmed to complete regeneration. The pure black broken finger was shaped into a cross that reflected the metallic luster.

emblem, put the holy cross emblem on the table and pushed it towards Arthur, saying:

"Take it and go to the Aurora Society stronghold in the Raging Sea, and you will get what you want."

"I can give you the extraordinary characteristics of 'insighter' and 'weather warlock', but I don't have the extraordinary characteristics of 'knowledge teacher'. Back then, Hypatia and Hermes led some humans away from the area covered by my faith. Most of them

The extraordinary characteristics of 'Knowledge Tutor' have been taken away by Hypatia. If you want, you can try to trade with Herabergen."

Three unfamiliar names appeared in succession, and Arthur let his head spin for a while before matching the name with the target.

Herabogen is the true name of the "god of knowledge and wisdom".

Hermes is an ancient human being.

He is one of the founders of the extraordinary system of potions and the creator of the ancient Hermetic language.

And if Hypatia can be ranked alongside Yevka and Hermes, and can also take away most of the Sequence 2 "Knowledge Teacher" extraordinary characteristics of the "Artisan" path, then there is a high probability that she is the current "God of Steam and Machinery".

These three names appeared at the same time, giving Arthur more associations.

For example, the honorable name of "God of Knowledge and Wisdom".

the power of knowledge;

the power of reason;

God of wisdom!

This is not a normal honorific name.

The first two sentences are very vague in their direction, relying entirely on the sentence "God of Wisdom" as a constraint. Moreover, the power and description of Herabergen are also very different.

The Sequence 0 "White Tower" at the top of the "Reader" path actually does not directly control the authority of "knowledge". Its core authority is "wisdom". The subjects of the "knowledge" authority belong to the "perfect one" and the "hermit".

Instead of using "wisdom", use "knowledge" as the descriptive direction of the first paragraph of the honorary name.

Very strange.

Consider the existence of the "God of Steam and Machinery" and the "Hidden Sage".

Herabergen, who could have taken "Omniscient" as his honorary name, is likely to have the extraordinary characteristics of "Emperor of Knowledge", or even more. What is the meaning of the symbol of "knowledge" that he insists on, and wants to rely on "wisdom"

Does authority indirectly “learn” other authorities?

That shouldn't be "knowledge", it should be the other four adjacent paths.

Without the foundation to carry "wisdom", no amount of "knowledge" is meaningful.

Unless He is absolutely sure to be the final winner.

Arthur didn't know why Yevka revealed this information to him. He remembered that all the white pigeons who went to Lomborg to investigate the black goat had lost contact. Maybe... this was the arrangement of the Church of Knowledge?

From the will of God.

Guys who like to talk half-truth are really annoying.

Looking at the Holy Emblem corresponding to the "Ancient Sun God", Arthur let the empty glass automatically fill up with fruit tea, resisted the urge to directly observe the "changes" and "chaos" on the other side, put away the Cross Holy Emblem and said:

"I will."

The exchange ends here.

Arthur continued to eat, while Yevka nodded and let his body disintegrate into a vortex of flesh and blood.

It gradually transformed from pure black to bright red, then expanded and elongated, and finally turned into the appearance of an adult male wearing a black clergy robe with a silver cross hanging on his chest.

His skin color is fair, and his hair is not long, mainly jet black, but the roots show a light yellowish golden color, and his eyes are pure gold, with deep outlines and sunken eye sockets, which are quite similar to the current Northern Continent people.

.

It's the "ancient sun god"!

This somewhat unappetizing change did not affect Arthur's interest in dining.

When both parties look at each other with smiles, it is considered a formal greeting.

No one knows what will happen in the future, but now, everyone gets what they want.
