On the high ground, on an altar inlaid with eyes, arms, heads, and entrails.

A tide of crimson light poured out like a tide of blood, twisting into a misshapen tree-like phantom.

In the humming sound, human bones, candles, silver plates, gold boxes, and other items trembled in unison, as if they could scratch spirits.

The prayer crowd around instinctively buried their heads and prostrated themselves on the ground.

Then, at the same time, a realization arose in their minds:

"Tempest Sea, Reef Island ......"

............

After seeing the ancient palace above the gray mist and feeling the gentle tremor of the mysterious space, Klein only felt that he had a deeper and invisible connection with the so-called "Source Fort", which was difficult to accurately grasp.

At this moment, he really had the experience that it would gradually belong to him.

In a matter of seconds, everything was gone, and Crane did not delay, letting the two secret puppets put away the items that still had value, destroying the remaining parts, and pulling out a piece of paper and shaking it casually.

With a snap, the paper figure ignited a crimson flame, and a dense array of illusory wings grew behind it.

Klein was stunned, but he didn't expect the simple "paper man stand-in" interference to have a bit of an "angel's embrace".

He immediately grabbed the secret puppet Chunas and the secret puppet Enyuni, and with the help of "teleportation", disappeared into the reef-made island.

After a great circle around several islands in the Sunia Sea, Klein finally returned to his residence in the eastern side of Beckland.

In the process, he used several qualitative "paper man doubles" to interfere with divination, prophecy, tracking, and gaze.

Whew, I didn't expect it to really trigger the change of "Source Castle" and produce a vision that cannot be concealed...... Fortunately, I was cautious enough to be careless, and if I had been promoted in Beckland or the surrounding area, Amon and Zaratul would have "seen" me...... Crane breathed a sigh of relief, and busily walked four steps backwards, into the gray mist, and began to divination.

After confirming that his current situation was safe, he did not stop, and immediately returned to the real world, and with the help of meditation, he initially gathered his scattered spirituality.

After doing this, he leaned back as he undressed, collapsed on the bed, and fell into a deep sleep.

Normally, the success of the "Sorcerer" to the "Ancient Scholar" would not be as tired as him, and he must have the spare strength to check his own state, but when Klein traveled through history, he relied on his own imprint to go back far and relied on his own mastery of ancient secrets far beyond the current level, and rushed to the beginning of the Second Age or the establishment of the "Giant Court" at the end of the First Age.

This in itself is the equivalent of digesting potions.

After several hours of deep sleep, Crane slowly opened his eyes and woke up.

He fumbled to sit up, pulled a pillow behind his back, and looked up and rubbed the corners of his forehead.

After about ten minutes of relaxation, he was completely sober and began to examine himself:

"It's true that the potion was digested for the most part, at least four-fifths...... It was about the same as I expected...... But I don't know how much ancient information I need to obtain and how much real history I need to study before I can digest it......

"At present, it seems that the role of 'ancient scholars' has two directions, one is a scholar from ancient times, and the other is a scholar who studies ancient times, both must be possessed, the first point is relatively easy, because the ritual itself implies the key point of making oneself an ancient, once the promotion is successful, you can naturally play the role of a scholar from ancient times.

"The second point is very difficult, normal society is fine, in this world with true gods, demons, and evil existences, just collecting ancient materials is a matter that requires great risk, if you still want to find out the truth of history, then at any time you may die extremely miserably for no reason, the more you know the standard, the greater the danger......

"I can know so much, most of it is thanks to the arrangement of a few existences, and the complexity of fate brought by the 'Source Castle', which makes me always encounter all kinds of things, of course, even so, as a true god at the moment, I have also died once, not to mention other 'ancient scholars'?

"It is relatively simple to change the position of 'miracle master' and 'ancient scholar', but unfortunately, there is no such if......

In addition, the previous two meanings are biased towards 'ancient', and the word 'scholar' must also be noted, and only if you can study something from history can you be called a 'scholar'.

"There are several directions to digest next, one is to figure out the current state of the 'dark angel' Sasliel and truly restore the specific process of the 'cataclysm', the second is to spend time to truly connect the history of the Quaternary Period, not limited to fragments, and the third is to go deeper, from mastering the macro state to studying the micro details, such as the rise and fall of the Antigonus family......

After confirming that the role in advance was effective and considering the future path, Klein combined the occult knowledge he had gained during his promotion and the observation of his own divine patterns, relying on methods such as "divination" and practice, and gradually explored the ability of the "ancient scholar":

"The number of 'spirit insects' that can be differentiated has reached 600, and the divine patterns have also changed to a certain extent, becoming more complex, and more able to express concepts such as power, weirdness, and transcendence......

"The change in the pattern of divinity is due to the newly acquired trait and the occult knowledge contained in the potion, which is both inherent in the extraordinary trait and derived from the higher level...... After becoming a true high-ranking person, is it possible to directly modify the knowledge located in a higher dimension and influence other sequencers?

"Being able to decipher potion recipes from divine patterns seems to be an example of this......

"Also, at the level of Sequence 3, the change of the divine pattern is also affected by personal characteristics, which are closely related to prayer and response, and the corresponding honorific names of the same 'ancient scholars' will be different in nature, because their personalities, experiences, and traits are different.

"Well, I can get the different 'spirit worms' to listen to the prayer instinctively, and respond to it in a less complicated way, without affecting the rest of my own behavior at all...... Specially marked and more complex ones will be handed over to the ontology......

"The 'ancient scholars' can rely on the differentiated 'spirit worms' to complete the role of gods, how do the other ways deal with this aspect of the matter......?

"Hehe, I'll think about my honorific name as an 'ancient scholar' later, and study the specific ability first.

"Well...... the main ability of the 'ancient scholars' is to get help from history, which is divided into two parts, one is to borrow strength from one's past self.

"It's awkward for me, it doesn't work at the moment, because I was definitely weaker than I am now, well, I'm just an ordinary person when I hang from that light door above the gray fog...... For those who used to be big shots, but are now weak for various reasons, this is a magic skill, and they can participate in the battle of Sequence 1 while being a baby, crying for ice cream, and they can't see any weaknesses at all...... The only problem is that it doesn't last long enough......

"Of course, as I become an 'ancient scholar' for a longer period of time, this can play a role, and I can often borrow strength from my former self as an 'ancient scholar', so that I will not have a moment of weakness, even if I suffer a heavy blow...... In a way, this is called self-existence and eternal existence, and there is never a trough in the state until the spiritual is exhausted.

"Well, until my spirituality is exhausted, I can always borrow power from my past self, there is no limit to the number of times, and my current spirituality, even if I don't recover this process, can borrow it nearly ten times a day, each time for five minutes.

"The second part is to summon images from the pores of history, which can be people or objects, and the more detailed and real the understanding of the corresponding history and things, the greater the probability of success and the longer it will last.

In the same way, the lower the target is to itself, the greater the probability of success and the longer it will last.

"In addition, the closer the goal is to oneself, the probability of success and the duration of maintenance will also increase.

"These are the three conditions for success, and when you summon people and things that are higher than yourself, even if you barely succeed, the projection that comes over in the end is only a part of the power and characteristics, and it can't be a complete body, and the images I summoned from the hole in history can only last three at the same time, including those summoned by the secret puppet......

"At the moment, I maintain even the most ordinary, well-known and once owned items, for a maximum of a quarter of an hour.

In essence, borrowing power from oneself is also a kind of summoning image, but the relationship between oneself and oneself has been close to the extreme, and there is no possibility of failure, which is a situation of extremism.

"In other words, if I want to summon the images of the big people in the historical holes, it is better to establish a friendly enough relationship with them and maintain them for a long time, well, if I summon the projection of Mr. Azik, the probability of success will definitely be higher than that of the historical images of other angels......

"Where is this extraordinary ability, this is obviously "Emotional Intelligence", "Relationship", "Interpersonal Communication"!"

In addition to sighing, Klein sincerely felt that the core ability of "ancient scholars" was divine skills, after all, most of them involved history and time were extremely magical.

However, in order to make a real difference, you must be smart enough and prepared accordingly.

This is the constant requirement of the "soothsayer" path.

"Well, when summoning the images in the pores of history, there is no dialogue, no communication, that is to say, it is impossible for 'ancient scholars' to interfere with history and change the past, from the perspective of playing, this can be summarized as witnessing fate, influencing the present, and not reversing the past......

"In addition to transferring diseases, wounds, curses, attacks, prophecies, and gazes, the 'paper man stand-in' also has an additional ability to transfer a certain part of the paper man to the target, and run like the real thing before he finds out that it is fake, hehe, if anyone meets me in the short moment when he loses his heart and his brain is not dead, I can give him a paper heart, gain strength from history to beat and circulate blood......

"The initial control time of the 'Spirit Line' has been shortened to two seconds, and the complete transformation into a puppet is ten seconds, and the range of completing the above two manipulations is 500 meters...... The limit of exchanging positions is five kilometers......

"'Flame Jump' is also five kilometres...... Air shells can freely control their power, up to the equivalent of shore defense guns......

"It can be transformed into organisms that do not exceed a certain limit in size, and some of the simulated organs can function, and some are just decorations......

"Phew, this is the 'Ancient Scholar', the 'Ancient Scholar' who has digested most of the potions......" Crane slowly stood up as he examined himself.

He prepares to enter the gray fog and check for changes in the "Source Fort".
