The strong wind roared from high up, and various windows in the library were opened and closed in succession. While they were banging and banging, streams of green water vapor and rain of paint poured into the room.
The stone statues and armors in the corridor trembled restlessly, the heavy curtains danced like ghosts, and the shredded papers and fallen pages on the floor were rolled up and scurrying like snowflakes.
"Promoted to the Lord of Witnesses? Don't you dare say this nonsense!" In such a weird environment, Fan Ning held the shredded paper in his hand in disbelief and was lost in thought.
Even the esoteric cult organizations that are best at promising benefits to people don't see anyone who can draw such a big picture as "you will directly become an evil god in the future", right?
The leaders of those churches only claim that they have the most profound understanding and research of a certain Lord of Witnesses, and are the most able to communicate directly with Him, claiming that believers who follow them can receive His gifts... But in fact, that
It is not clear whether the witness leader has noticed this person and whether he cares about the rituals they performed.
It is difficult to tell whether the existence of the Lord of Witness is a living thing or a non-living thing, an abstract concept or a mysterious substance.
"So what exactly did they discuss?... Listening to Oakgun's evaluation of the attendees, 'Obviously they are just three levels of understanding', which shows that he and the ancestor of the MacAdam family are very likely to have reached the level of Order Enforcer.
Realm...These beings who have climbed to a higher level, understand 'gnosis' or even understand part of 'true knowledge', how will they view this issue?"
When Fan Ning finished reading the words on the scrap of paper, he had very strong questions and quickly ran inside.
The contamination of the Alchemist Association and the disappearance of Okegang are very closely related to the Immortality Secret Cult and the Harmony School. If you know what Okegang was doing in the last period of his life, it will be very helpful to clarify the current situation here.
.
If you want to go to the second floor of the library, it's probably in this direction.
As Fan Ning walked, he sucked the snowflakes flying in the sky into his hands, quickly read, filtered, and discarded them.
At first, he didn't gain much, because what he saw were only fragments of the contents of the book. The Oakgun Diary he first discovered while standing by the window was a special case.
But as he walked deeper into the library, he found that the number of torn diary pages increased in number.
The ink handwriting is interspersed and broken, exuding a profound color. Fan Ning roughly sequenced and read it through a rough browsing impression.
"...Facts have proven that research on mystery will be more effective only when everyone stops being secretive. Today we did a thought experiment. The basic logic is a "premise" or a "backwards"
.”
"...If the Order Enforcer can be promoted to the Lord of Witnesses, or if there really is a Lord of Witnesses with a "fourth type of origin," then we can't help but wonder, what qualities should this Lord of Witnesses have?
Of course, the nature of His existence is unknowable, but are there some aspects, some aspects of the past, aspects before the process, that can be understood from a human perspective? So we integrated conjectures about Him, or His past.
, in theory, it should have at least three qualities——"
"Master a complete copy of "Pleroma"; possess the seventh-highest "grid"; and successfully pass through the "Gate of the Dome" once."
Fan Ning stood in the elegant but strange library, listening to the strange roar of the wind in the corridor outside, holding a pile of notes and gradually reading them in awe.
"As soon as the conjecture comes out, even those who are not very advanced in enlightenment know that these three qualities, or these three conditions, are basically nonsense, and they are becoming more and more nonsense one after another.
!」
"Master a complete copy of "Pleroma"? Even those who have climbed to the sixth level of the Execution Order, the "true knowledge" or "divine nature" they have seen is only a little over 30%. According to the guidelines given by the Glowing Garden
and enlightenment, only the completely perfect "true knowledge" can be called "Pleroma"... This cannot be coveted. You must know that the cost of freely entering and exiting the migration and Huita is high, and the body of the orderer is almost
Having broken away from the surface of the world and becoming an existence like a shifting creature, his mind is also on the verge of dangerous collapse. If the containment ratio of "True Knowledge" increases again, even if he is completely exiled to the abnormal zone, he may not be able to suppress this collapse.
The trend..."
"Possessing the seventh-highest "G"? It's just a joke. The purity of language today is no longer what it was in ancient times. In the early days of the third history, there were still many philosophers, moralists, politicians, mathematicians and fighting heroes."
"Torchbearers" have emerged, and under the current situation of language pollution in the New Era, the "ge" achieved in other fields of humankind has almost completely lost its climbing efficiency! The field of poetry as a "rebellion against language" is also in danger, and it can only be independent of language.
The art field is the last pure land! Thousands of troops cross the single-plank bridge, and the road becomes narrower and narrower. The "torch bearer" is already one or two art masters in a style period, a "father" level existence?..."
"Passing through the "Gate of the Dome" once? This joke is even bigger. How to pass through the "Gate of Non-Gate", "Gate of Dawn" and "Gate of Glazed Glass"? Everyone knows that this is the ability of mortal creatures.
The highest point reached in the Hui Pagoda, judging from my experience of approaching it infinitely, it is true that its borders are flat, smooth as a mirror, broken like powder, and cannot be opened. Even the most beautiful things mentioned in the secret history are true.
The ancient Jie Yuan God only symbolically walked back through the "Dome Gate" after the above-mentioned HOS seats to show respect..."
"...the discussions about the high places of the residence were finally stopped by Bologna. He emphasized that the current situation of change in the Hoffmann Empire was turbulent, and the southwestern border residents were in conflict with those foreigners, and the conflicts between the school and the church forces were also
We have reached a situation where water and fire are incompatible, and now is the critical moment to carefully screen whether the new partner is reliable... Let’s just consider this topic as talking about official and unofficial history to adjust the flavor. If it is too distracting, then that’s it.”
"I basically agree with Bologna's attitude. Rather than believing that humans can be promoted to the Lord of Witnesses, it is more credible to think that the Tulungarian Dynasty, under the instruction of an older existence, concocted the "third type of origin" with the help of foreign objects.
letter."
"In a word, people are inferior to things, and the bodies and spirits of ordinary creatures are ultimately useless."
These shocking terms, theories, speculations, as well as the details revealed in Oak Ridge's comments, reconstructed Fan Ning's mystical understanding of the heights of Huita over and over again.
100% perfect "true knowledge" is called "Pleroma" by them? For a strong person in the sixth level of the order, the proportion of "true knowledge" or "divine nature" is only a little more than 30%? The state of the order has already been
Is it almost the same as a moving creature?
"Ge" is not just for the field of art? So the sum of philosophers, scientists, politicians, historians... the world's people remember and recognize them is also their "Ge", but because of the pollution of language, these "Ge"
"Character" no longer has the ability to climb? There is only half of the poetry field of "rebellion against language" and an artistic field that does not rely on language.
Fan Ning recalled that shortly after he became a sage, Dupont mentioned in the book "On Cost and Origin" that Dupont took in the occult course that the "non-verbal" method of artistic transmission is the safest third type of concealment.
The form of knowledge transmission, because the essential reason for the risk of contamination in accepting hidden knowledge lies in "language" - human thinking relies on language to exist, and language is the creation of the Lord of Witness. In using language, human beings will inevitably be stared at forever.
He lowered his head to read the paper and walked slowly in thought. Suddenly he felt as if something in front of him glanced at him.
"what?"
Fan Ning, who was always on high alert for the Special Patrol Office, suddenly raised his head.
The bookcases on the wall in the field of view are arranged like petals. On the right is a spiral staircase leading to a higher level. Below is a hemispherical multi-layered ebony reading table.
Behind the table, a high gilded palace chair stood empty, facing him.
"Bang." "Bang." In the corridor far away behind him, the doors, windows and curtains were still struggling and dancing in the violent storm.
Fan Ning stared at the chair in surprise, slowed down, and stepped forward step by step.
After looking up at the spiral staircase on the right side of the bookcase and thinking for a while, he decided to pick up the scraps of paper on the ground nearby and take a look.
I don’t know how much time has passed in the timeline.
"...On the day he came back from his inspection tour of the Secret History Institute, Bologna asked me to talk alone and shared what he called "a discovery." Although the tone he used was to explain the facts, I could hear the vague meaning of it.
A subtle change in attitude, and I was also very shocked by the implications of this incident——"
"He revealed that from the late Tulungarian Dynasty to the New Era, there may have been more than one mortal creature passing through the Dome Gate!"
"Then Bologna described to me the "fourth type of origin" method with great interest. He said that although the Lord of Witness is an unknowable abstract concept, since all mortal creatures are flesh and blood, at least this type of origin
, we can be sure that it was once a real real substance, so we can call the master of this type of witness the "Spirit Source God"!"
"After hearing this, I was so shocked that I couldn't speak for a long time. As an alchemist, I firmly believe that human beings and all things are composed of basic substances. I also know some ways of mutual transformation and influence between matter and spirit, but if I say anything
"Real matter can be conceptualized as an abstract concept of the person of the witness." This really overturned my personal understanding! I asked him whether the theory of "matter-source god" has a research basis, but he avoided talking about it, but
When I questioned whether it was realistically possible, he patiently showed me a set of ideas and asked me if I was interested in giving it a try.”
I have finished reading the content at hand.
"God of Origin? There is such a classification of origins?" Several witnesses appeared in Fan Ning's mind who did not know how to classify origins before.
Moreover, the name Bologna caught his attention again.
What idea did he come up with?
On the night when he first arrived at Fort Saint-Tallen, Roy shared with him in detail the past of their school. Later on the night when he took up the new role as president of the branch, Viadrin also told him some of the history of the containment of the God of Origin.
The Bologna School is an extraordinary force with the academic clan as its core and united with traditional nobles. The earliest artifacts they inherited were four pieces of the Origin God, but all of them failed to be contained one after another. The part that studied the "Red Pond" split away from them very early.
The three core families during the period of the Hoffmann Empire were: the Bologna family, which was expert in the mystery of the "Hidden Light", the Okegan family, which was expert in the mystery of the "Pictured Fountain", and the MacAdam family, which was expert in the mystery of the "Disaster"
.
But later on, the Bologna line had declined to a side force, and the alchemist branch of Okegang had collectively degenerated. In the industrial age where Roy lived, only the McAdam line was left in charge of the overall situation of the school. But even so,
They both still control Theoline's House of Lords and nearly all the noble schools.
It is enough to show how huge the foundation and influence of this organization was in the feudal aristocratic era.
Judging from the tone in Okgang's diary, the Bologna School at that time was still in its heyday when all three major families were still alive, and the entire school even had more than one order enforcer.
In addition, there are some tone and details of writing, such as Okegang ridiculing "xxx is as nonsense as popularizing steam engines", and Bologna stating that "there is an undercurrent of change in the Hoffmann Empire", which confirms that there were budding technologies at that time, but the steam revolution
It has not come yet, and the time may be after the middle of the seventh century, that is, the period from 650 to 680 in the New Calendar.
"So why did the families in Bologna and Oakon have problems after that?"
With many doubts, Fan Ning began to search the room for pages, not even missing the gaps between the displays.
After reading the big and small things reflected in these diaries, he got a general understanding of the personalities of the three family heads. McAdam is an absolutely conservative type who is consistent on the surface and inside; Oakgun, the alchemist, seems to have a frivolous tone in his writing, but in fact
He is a "talkative player" who has outstanding occult talents, but is withdrawn and timid. On the other hand, this Bologna, although he shows the calmness and strategizing of the leader of the school in public, in fact he seems to have extremely crazy thoughts.
Ambition, courage and pursuit.
The order of the shredded paper was very messy, and there were huge jumps. When Fan Ning discovered the topic related to it again, the timeline had been completely discontinuous.
"Strip off 70% of your own "Gnosis", forcibly increase the 30% of "True Knowledge" to 100%, and then temporarily accommodate and assimilate their share of "Pleroma"?"
"Imitate the attainments, characteristics, achievements or feats of a target with the seventh-highest "Quality", confuse the judgment of the secret history, and make it impossible to tell the difference between yourself and the target in the eyes of the world?"
"To pay tribute to the hidden past in a symbolic way and simulate the process of recreating the process of an ancient witness passing through the "Gate of the Dome"?"
"...I now suspect that Bologna may have really discovered the secret history of the birth of a certain "Plasma God", because these methods are simply not something that you and I can construct with our mystical knowledge and mind."
"...Crazy! This man is crazy! The so-called "attempt" in his mouth is actually to construct a mirror ceremony - borrowing the twin relationship between the two unknown gods in the secret history to usurp the former "Lamp and Fountain" respectively.
A seat high up in the HOS flat!!"
"Boom!" Outside the window at the end of the corridor behind him, green lightning as thick as a bucket split the night sky.
Fan Ning, whose pupils were now wide open, looked at the empty gilded palace chair in the library, and an uneasy feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger.
"Boom!" The entire library was shaken and changed color.
He seemed to be in a trance, when Fan Ning followed the chair and looked at the bookcase behind...
