At noon, Morses left Crabbe's office. In one morning, he had learned most of the basic knowledge of the "scholar" class.
This includes but is not limited to the principles and methods of using mental power, as well as the most basic method of using spells.
"Meditation", that's its name, is a very basic spell, and its application principle is also very simple, which is to guide arcane energy to strengthen the mental body.
Although it is very simple, it is a spell that scholars and even all spiritual transcendents must practice continuously throughout their lives.
"Meditation" can help improve the level of mental power, calm the mind, and help the brain stay awake under certain circumstances. For a spiritual transcendent, this is as important as physical exercise for a warrior.
Krabi spent more than half of the morning instructing Morsis to learn to use "meditation". This is not a difficult spell. As long as you get started with it, you can use it easily.
But getting started is quite difficult.
This morning, Krabi had been instructing Morses to use his mental power, and specifically increased the density of arcane energy around him, but he still failed to complete the "meditation".
This is the most important step before he becomes a transcendent, that is, "activating arcane energy." Only if he has the ability to activate arcana, can he use auxiliary rituals to sublimate his spiritual body and become a spiritual transcendent.
After Morris hurriedly had lunch, he quickly returned to his room.
Because he had a headache from practicing all morning, he did not intend to continue practicing, and Krabi also reminded him not to be brave, otherwise it may be counterproductive.
After returning to the room, Morse first took out the notebook that originally belonged to his father.
Looking at the worn cover, he forgot to open it for a moment.
"Is this the symbol of 'Desolation'?" Morses looked at the coat of arms on the cover and whispered to himself.
This was not the first time he had heard of the word "Yuhuang". He had heard about the word "Yuhuang" before in church school.
The teacher in charge of the lecture called it a resistance organization that has lasted for hundreds of years.
This is the same as the description of many large and small resistance organizations in the empire. No one would have thought that it would be connected to the Momoa Empire of the previous era.
Morsis thought as he opened the notebook.
On the first page, a name caught his eye.
"Perval..." he whispered.
No surname was written, only a first name was written down. Regarding this, Moses was not puzzled, because in the morning, Crabbe had already briefly described his family to him.
This is a family without a surname...
The first generation leaders of the Fallen Wasteland believed that since their god had fallen, no one in the world would be worthy of having the word "Moma" as their surname.
Morses flipped through his notes again and saw the words that had been recorded by his father.
"On March 8, 965, the weather was sunny. I want to remember this day forever. My descendant was finally born into this world. I called him Morses, and Liana said she liked this name."
Morsis was stunned for a few seconds, and then sighed.
Liana was his mother's name. According to Krabi, she died during the Empire's siege on the Fallen Wasteland headquarters.
Continuing to turn to the next page, Morsis discovered that the date recorded on the back did not follow the previous page.
"It seems that father only recorded some important things..." Morses said to himself. Judging from the time, Perval's first note was written in 965, which is sixteen years ago, just before the death of
Four years to go before destruction.
Morsis turned his attention to the second note, which was longer than the previous one.
"May 18, 965, Yin. I have just concluded a meeting on security issues at the headquarters. Those old guys think that we should invite new scholars to set up new magic circles instead of using the products of the Stantic Empire.
advanced munitions and steam machinery.
For God's sake Momoa, are their brains filled with dirt? Times have changed. An ordinary person with a revolver may even be able to kill a low-level transcendent! Not to mention weapons with greater firepower.
Yeah...I bet that if one day Yuehuang is destroyed, those guns will be the culprits!"
About a hundred years ago, the steam engine was born from the newly emerged Kingdom of Medicis on the main continent, and within fifty years it was widely used all over the world.
Thermal weapons were born much earlier than steam engines, but they have only been widely used in recent decades.
Morse recalled the relevant knowledge in his mind, and at the same time, the corners of his mouth raised slightly.
This notebook gave him a better understanding of his father's character, and at the same time he was able to better understand the internal information of the Yuanhuang organization.
Just as he was thinking about it, Morsis turned to the next page.
"On October 3, 965, the transaction with Tianyin was completed smoothly. The batch of arms arrived at the headquarters of Yuhuang last month. And yesterday, various advanced mechanical facilities were also completed... Yuhuang
It has completed its transformation! But what makes me very sad is that my friend Krabi Crevi left the Fallen Wasteland. He left after helping us consolidate the magic circle for the last time. Before leaving, he only followed me.
Say goodbye.
Krabi told me that he was tired of the transcendental life and wanted to rest. He was going to the city of Hel in the province of Salius, which he heard was his hometown.
Those old guys should be surprised, right? A very sought-after scholar would actually choose to withdraw from the world of transcendental beings? Haha... If they knew that the reason why Krabi could not be promoted for so many years was because he did not want to be promoted, I don't know what would happen.
expression.
I wish my friend a safe journey, and hope that he will not be affected by the transcendental world in the future... Although the transcendental is powerful, he is still in danger. If possible, I hope that Morses will not get involved in the transcendental world, no
…It should be said that it allows him not to get involved in the wilderness, but to have the strength to be independent."
After reading this note, Morses was silent for a long time. From here, he learned about Krabe's past and his father's expectations for him.
"Is it because my father doesn't want me to get involved in matters related to the Desolation because it's too dangerous? Or is it the 'curse of fate' that the old man mentioned?" Morses recalled what Crabe had said when he gave him the choice.
Krabi also described those words in detail in the morning, which meant that the transcendent members of their family would often feel a call.
It was a call from a certain direction, originating from an unknown existence. Some family ancestors believed that it came from the remains of God Momoa. After all, even if the physical body of the god died, it would still show many characteristics of being alive.
But more than nine hundred years have passed, and Yuehuang has transformed from a large-scale national restoration organization into an underground organization that dare not show its face, but the issue of this call has still not been resolved.
The ancestors of the family believed that it came from an unexplored and barren land on the other side of the Tranquility Sea.
The distance between the Eastern Continent and the Ancient Continent is not too far. Although one side is the Storm Ocean, the largest and most hostile ocean in the world, the other side is the Sea of Tranquility, the smallest ocean in the world.
But no country has ever successfully crossed the Sea of Tranquility, because it is a completely windless sea. According to rumors, there once was a god named Poseidon on the sea, and he chose the Sea of Tranquility as his habitat, so it is quiet and windless.
wind.
Because of the special nature of the Sea of Tranquility, it is impossible for traditional sailing ships to cross it, and because there are a large number of sea monsters inside the Sea of Tranquility, steamships also need powerful equipment to cross it.
This kind of equipment is difficult for even the empire to obtain, let alone a small organization like Yuehuang.
On the other side, there is also an insurmountable chasm. At the junction of the Ocean of Storms and the Ancient Continent, there is a natural arcane storm, which is difficult for even seventh-level transcendents to approach.
In addition, the Abyssal Sea at the southern end is a restricted area for humans known to passers-by, so the Ancient Continent can be called an isolated place.
Morses is not yet a transcendent person, but he feels that one day, he will have to find a way to go to that barren primitive land.
This is his destiny!
This is the common destiny of all Momoa descendants!
"This is also the purpose of the Desolation..." Morses lay down, looking at the patterns on the ceiling, and said to himself.
While he was thinking wildly, he continued to look through the notebook.
"On March 1, 967, the team set up by Qing. in Tusok City was wiped out. Only the adjutant Lennon Sivens who went to deliver the message escaped and came back.
Lennon told me that the Shrine treated the group as a common criminal gang because they had left no survivors alive and found no useful information.
Although Yuehuang has not been exposed, after all, four brothers have left us forever. I am in a very bad mood. I hope they can return to the divine kingdom of their ancestors and live there forever.
Lennon's report has made us understand a lot of things, and I have decided to recall most of the teams in the near future, or let them work shifts to maximize safety."
Morsis looked at this note and frowned a little bit.
"This incident happened two years before Yuehuang was encircled and suppressed by the empire. Could it be related to the subsequent encirclement and suppression?" Thinking of this, he quickly browsed through the following notes, and finally reviewed several later notes.
He found what he was looking for.
"On May 7, 969, Xiao Yu. There are more and more members of the surrounding shrines, and I heard that troops are gathering here... Since the security measures at the headquarters have been strengthened, no brother has been caught.
, why was it discovered?
There is no other answer except for the Tasok City team from two years ago...that team must have been captured alive, and he failed to withstand the torture of the Empire.
But Lennon’s words are all true, there is no doubt about it. Mr. Hatters’ lie detection method cannot be wrong... Is there a soul herder in the empire who can talk to souls?
No matter what it is, we were too careless... But it's too late to say anything. There is no way out now. The empire will launch an attack in a month at most.
Momoa, what should we do?"
Morsis put down his notes and nodded thoughtfully.
"Lennon Sivens..." Morriss read the key figures mentioned in this note.
