The first time he stepped into the dreamland, Rhodes saw a strange sight.
The book of knowledge ran off the bookshelf on its own and was running wildly on the ground.
Its hard cover opened and closed on the ground, the white paper inside the book flew across it, and it ran bumpyly, like a puppy.
Rhodes was shocked.
Is there such a thing? My good book of knowledge won’t turn into a husky, right?
When the Book of Knowledge saw him appearing, it ran over and slapped his legs with its book cover.
Are you really a dog? Rhodes picked up the book and asked carefully: "How did you... become like this?"
The book of knowledge turns the pages impatiently, it must wait for the master's question before it can answer it.
"Too much spirituality."
"Do you want to squeeze out a little bit?"
Bang! The Book of Knowledge slapped his hand hard.
"No! 100 servings of spirituality every day! Not one less, you promised me! Only by continuing to take spiritual materials can I restore my spirituality!"
"Oh, then why are you running around on the ground?"
"My spirituality is making me feel uneasy, come out and get it checked out."
"Did you find anything?"
The speed of turning the pages of the book of knowledge has become slow, which seems a bit frustrating.
"No."
Okay... Rhodes covered his forehead and didn't pay much attention to it. This book was already very strange, and he used coercion and inducement to make it more useful.
It just so happens that I have some questions to ask it.
"Shu, do you know the distribution of minerals in Fanxing Town and nearby areas?"
The pages of the Book of Knowledge waved dissatisfiedly.
"This is factual knowledge, and knowing its answer consumes my spiritual energy."
Rhodes smiled and said: "It's okay, I will feed you more spiritual energy from now on, two hundred servings a day, okay?"
The pages of the Book of Knowledge twisted a bit, and he replied: "Okay... let me take a look."
"Well... there is a rich true silver mine under Fanxing Town. There is also a high-grade spiritual crystal ore in the branch of the rich mine, and an ordinary sun stone mine. The veins are deep, there are many sections, the mining is very difficult, and there are crystals
Stone dragons and crystalline trolls guard."
Rhodes nodded.
He knew from this information that Wangcheng's investigation of surrounding resource points was relatively detailed, but it was limited to mineral veins exposed on the ground or that had been mined. Mineral veins that needed to be explored were difficult to obtain.
"To the south of Fanxing Town, there is a rare sun crystal mine under Guiling Lake. The veins are very deep and mining is extremely difficult."
"To the north of Fanxing Town, in the Blackwater Swamp, there is a very large star ruby vein. This is a surface vein with rich content and low mining difficulty."
"To the west of Fanxing Town, the ruins of Yin Soen... are nothing special, just an ordinary copper-iron vein."
After reading the text on the page, Rhodes smiled.
During the expedition to Fanxing Town, Wangcheng did not provide many resources, and he had to rely on himself for most difficulties.
But he also has the power to dispose of the spoils of freedom.
Ore veins are one of the trophies.
This was originally a test set by the Royal City to consider the benefits and costs of the expedition, but now, it has become a stepping stone for Rhodes to take off.
"Hmph, just wait and see the miracle!"
Of course, the ultimate goal of everything he does is for divinity.
And in the process of gaining divinity, you will naturally gain a lot of humanity.
Now, except for the flower of humanity that occasionally needs Rhodes to fight for, humanity no longer needs attention at all. Many times he can gain a lot of humanity just by showing up.
Thinking of this, Rhodes decided to ask in more detail about the details of obtaining divinity.
He has asked similar questions many times, and the Book of Knowledge seems very impatient.
"How many times have I said that any behavior that improves the probability of human survival will gain divinity. The only difference is more and less."
"What about opening up a new living space for mankind?"
"Of course!"
"Building a prosperous human town and mining resources for the royal city?"
"Of course!"
"Bringing new jobs to more people, giving them a new life, and protecting their safety?"
The book of knowledge flipped through the pages crazily, and there were two huge words on each page.
"Of course!"
Rhodes smiled, there was no problem with his plan.
"By the way, I have another question, why was it so slow for me to obtain divinity last time?"
It was not until long after the battle in the third theater and the Kuroshio mission that he gained divinity.
The Book of Knowledge replied impatiently: "Whenever the stars shine, the divinity can be settled once."
"How long will the stars shine?"
"I don't know."
"Don't know?"
The Book of Knowledge replied: "Astrology is the most immutable of the three phases. Except for the seven-star star, all times are not fixed."
Rhodes scratched his head.
The three phases are the sun phase, the moon phase, and the star phase.
And he didn't understand astrology. He only knew that the seven-star star completed a fixed trajectory cycle, which was the shortest period of astrological changes. It was called a week and had seven fixed days.
"How long is the shortest time?"
"At least one week."
"What's the longest?"
"A time when the stars return."
The return of the stars lasts for one year, with a minimum of 330 days and a maximum of 515 days.
Rhodes felt a little bad. If it really took so long, it would have a great impact on his plan.
"Can I observe it?"
"Yes, Star Square is used to observe the sky."
Star Square is the large square under the obelisk. Rhodes has never used it.
Under the guidance of the Book of Knowledge, he quickly mastered the usage of Star Square.
When he input his spirituality, he saw the boundless starry sky, and when he stepped on the starry sky, he seemed to be floating in the universe.
According to the method provided by the Book of Knowledge, Rhodes quickly mastered the method of identifying the stars.
"Hmm... the five stars are retrograde, the sun is shining brightly, the sun will be dim tomorrow, and the fire signs will not be visible. Will there be a disaster after noon?"
The Book of Knowledge jumped up and slapped him on the head, and several giant words appeared on the page:
"Look here."
"The stars are shaking, and the stars are retreating... Three-quarters of the shining period of the stars has passed?"
The Book of Knowledge lay hummingly in his arms, not wanting to speak.
This performance proves that his judgment is correct.
Rhodes rubbed his chin.
If this is the case, then there should be no problem.
Even if he is the most unlucky, it will be over a hundred days later.
"Great, book, do you think my learning ability is very strong?"
The book of knowledge casually moved its pages: "You are so weak despite being blessed by the gods. You are the stupidest person I have ever seen."
Rhodes immediately became angry and inserted his fingers into the pages of the book: "What did you say?"
The Book of Knowledge shuddered and wilted: "I said your wisdom is too profound."
"Who is the wisest person in the world?"
"It's you, the master."
Rhodes put it on the ground with satisfaction and patted the back of it: "Go and play."
The book of knowledge shuddered and ran away, and some unsightly words seemed to emerge from the trembling pages.
Rhodes pretended not to see it, happily returned to the hut, and made dream items on the stone platform.
Haha, it feels so good that there is no shortage of materials at all.
Mavis is so awesome!
It is worth mentioning that Rhodes kept his promise, and as soon as the five million loan came in, he paid back the hundreds of thousands of silver cords he owed Mavis to her.
Although this girl is still cold and indifferent on the surface, she has contributed a flower of humanity to him.
Oh, woman.
After a while, the Book of Knowledge ran in from outside, looked at it for a while, and suddenly slapped his heel.
Rhodes looked down and asked, "What's wrong?"
The book of knowledge lay on the ground, its pages opened, and several large characters appeared on it:
"How did you make so many immortal souls?"
"Immortal Spirit" is a special creation of the "River of Eternal Death" in the high-level spiritual world. It has a special ability that makes him invincible for thirty seconds.
Since Rhodes repeatedly jumped horizontally, this has been his fourth time.
As for another special product "Guardian of Darkness", twelve units have been made.
The special creations are cheap, powerful, and invincible, but the quantity limit bothers him.
Rhodes used his supreme wisdom to figure out the method of repeatedly jumping horizontally. This was his most proud operation. Unexpectedly, even a book of knowledge known for its wisdom was shocked.
Rhodes laughed loudly and told it proudly.
The book of knowledge lies quietly on the ground, as if dead.
Rhodes smiled and said: "Book, are you shocked? But this is just the tip of the iceberg of my infinite wisdom. I..."
The book of knowledge suddenly jumped up, tapping his heels wildly, and the pages of the book clattered wildly, like crazy.
Rhodes stepped aside and shouted: "What are you doing? Are you crazy?"
The book of knowledge opened its pages with all its strength, and a large row of garbled characters rushed out. At the end, it was written in scary large bold letters:
"Are you XX?"
Rhodes frowned and said, "What do you mean?"
Another row of garbled characters rushed out. The Book of Knowledge is bound by rules and cannot insult its owner. These garbled characters are all curse words that have been blocked by it.
After flipping through dozens of pages, the book of knowledge was written in dream text.
"Every time a dream bubble enters a spiritual area, it is an invasion of their origin. The more times they enter, the deeper the invasion, and the stronger the spiritual invader the dream will face."
"This is the self-defense mechanism of the spirit world area. Within them are sleeping fragments of the infinite spirit and the will of the original god."
Every word on the page is very large and thick, punching through the back of the paper, showing the despair of the book of knowledge.
"You are as weak as a XX, how dare you provoke them?"
