Chapter 8: A Fragmented History
The next morning, inside the mottled brick and stone building.
On the second floor, in the center of the bedroom in the sunny direction, on a soft moon-patterned carpet, Tang Qi slowly woke up.
Before opening his eyes, Tang Qi saw in his mind, the gray void space, the golden dust-like points of light, and a little more, these were the results of Tang Qi's cultivation all night. It's also strange to say, he sat here and practiced all night, and he still didn't feel the slightest tiredness.
When I woke up, I was even more refreshed.
He also tested the upper limit of the time for cultivating the [Golden Furnace Meditation Method] once, except for the special state of the first time, the later cultivation, about an hour or so at a time, when the brain felt a tingling pain, it had to stop.
Rest for another half an hour and continue to cultivate, another hour.
The cycle went on and on, and the night passed.
Of course, how to arrange the cultivation time, Tang Qi was still figuring out.
What really bothered Tang Qi was the spiritual power he had gained from meditation, and he hadn't found a way to use it yet.
However, it is obviously not a simple matter to find a transcendent skill cultivation, and it will take a little time for Tang Qi, who is still in the "adaptation stage" in this new world.
What Tang Qi has to do now is to play the role of a ninth-grader.
Although judging from the fact that he sealed the luxury villa, lived alone in the high school, and didn't need anyone to take care of him, he was already quite different from the original body, and the final student role, Tang Qi felt that he still needed to work hard, and by the way, he also used this identity to make up for some common sense.
As soon as he thought of this, Tang Qi immediately got up, cooked breakfast for himself with his own hands, took the books and class schedule he received yesterday and was about to go out.
As soon as he walked to the door, he seemed to remember something, and turned into the storage room next to the lounge.
The direct probe dragged out a wooden box from the cramped room, opened it, and the things in it came into view, which was the witchcraft notes that Tang Qi had collected from old Morgan before, some witchcraft gadgets, and a soul-changing scale.
Last night, Tang Qi threw these things here.
Giving up the Black Witchcraft Note and the Soul Changing Libra is naturally not because he is not decisive enough to kill and obsessed with the distinction between good and evil.
From the beginning to the end, there was only one reason, and that was prudence.
Although these things can give a person good powers, using these black magic techniques will provoke an old witch family, which is not a wise choice for Tang Qi now.
Especially after Tang Qi obtained the Golden Forge Meditation Method, these things were even more frustrating.
At this time, Tang Qi looked at them again, although only one night had passed, but he didn't know if it was an illusion, Tang Qi always felt that the evil aura on these things seemed to have become weaker, and it continued to weaken.
"Could it be that it really works?"
Tang Qi muttered, and looked directly at the scale at the bottom of the wooden box.
Immediately, there was a ripple in the line of sight, and a special interface resurfaced.
Among these things, it seems that only Libra and the meditation method that has not yet been restored have reached the level of triggering Tang Qi's "Everything Knows" ability, or the golden finger.
Strange Thing: Soul Changing Libra
Fragment 1: This is an evil creation that can change souls.
Information fragment 2: Due to the special environment in which it is located, it is being suppressed by the power of light, and it continues to weaken, and there is a high probability that the initiation ceremony will fail.
"It works!"
Seeing the changed fragments of information, Tang Qi said happily.
The information in the diary is correct, and within the Holy Thorn High School, there is indeed a light force that suppresses black magic.
Even if it is not a human being, it is just an evil creation, and it will be suppressed within the scope.
After verifying this, a big stone in Tang Qi's heart immediately fell.
Sealing these things back together, Tang Qi was in a more relaxed mood, turned around and opened the door, walked down the stone stairs, followed the memory of coming in yesterday, and walked along the boulevard towards the real campus.
St. Thorns High School, with its façade at the front of the white brick square and the centuries-old Church of Thorns.
But it's just the façade, and at the back, there's a very expansive campus.
Deep on campus, there's even a small park.
The main area, such as the central campus, is a real podium, with four or five very magnificent high-rise buildings, and on the left and right are the buildings where the faculty and staff work, as well as the student dormitories.
Tang Qi is in the remote corner on the left.
As he walked towards the main campus, he casually glanced at the bell tower area that was very close to his small building.
In other words, the only drawback of this secluded brick and stone building is that it is too close to the "ascetic society", and you will often see some strange scenes, especially in the early hours of the morning.
However, this time, Tang Qi didn't see anything.
"Am I waking up late?"
Shaking his head, he muttered.
Tang Qi took out a book from his arms and opened it, while walking slowly towards the main campus.
There is still a long way to go, but it is enough for Tang Qi to review some common sense, especially history.
For example, this page that Tang Qi opened at random tells the history of the establishment of the Condor Empire.
Before I saw the words, I was greeted by a striking image of a huge statue standing on the seaside of a metropolis that seemed to be jutting into the clouds.
That metropolis, Tang Qi knew that it was the second largest metropolis of the Condor Federation, the city of Kathata.
And that sculpture is actually a statue of a god.
It had a wide robe, a crown of thorns that seemed to shine on its head, a book for some unknown reason, and a longsword that looked cold and ancient in the other, and at its feet, on a tall black stone pedestal, were carved countless reliefs in the shape of broken demons and monsters.
It is difficult to tell how tall the idol really is with the naked eye, and it is certainly impossible to know more details.
But at the bottom of this page, there is an introduction to this statue.
Lord of Thorns: The Europa Alliance gave the Condor Federation a gift after the cataclysm, the crown on its head represents the endless brilliance given by the Lord of Light, the book in its hand is the "Code of Thorns", which represents the most strict and fair law, and the long sword in his hand and the relief under his feet represent the countless demons defeated with great power during the establishment of the Condor Federation.
It is rumored that Europa's gift also included a pair of wings of freedom, which matched the idol of the Lord of Thorns, but unfortunately it was mysteriously stolen during transportation and was not recovered for hundreds of years, becoming one of the biggest mysteries in the long history of the Condor Federation.
"Why not Lady Liberty?"
Tang Qi looked at the picture that was somewhat familiar with his memory, and couldn't help but sigh.
Although they are all different, in some details, this page in this history book does depict a scene that bears a lot like the Statue of Liberty on Earth in the previous life.
But the relevant history is unrecognizable.
It must be known that this history book is obviously a canonical history.
The appearance of things such as the Lord of Thorns and the Codex is understandable, but telling the demons in a true tone makes Tang Qi very puzzled.
What he was puzzled about was not the existence of demons, after all, the experience of the day he was reborn made Tang Qi unable to deny the existence of extraordinary powers, since the devil, the soul exchange scale, and the black witchcraft could all exist, the appearance of demons was also a matter of course.
What really made Tang Qi incomprehensible was that on the bright side, the existence of extraordinary power was officially denied.
This world, like the Earth in the previous life, has developed a modern civilization.
Although there are still many weird and exaggerated myths and legends, which are passed down in various books, movies and television works, or people's mouths, and compared to the earth, the legends of this world seem to be extraordinary, and they are also a bit too real in terms of details.
For example, the deepest memory in the original owner's mind, there was a cataclysm in this world thousands of years ago, and I don't know if it was a war or a disaster, and gods, demons, and the end of the world...... and other complex nouns, sweeping the whole world into it.
The Condor Federation, now one of the most powerful political groups, was founded at the end of the Cataclysm.
It is said that there should be detailed information handed down for such a huge event, and from the memory of the original owner, it seems that the truth of this major event was concealed by the big countries out of some common tacit understanding.
There are really some things that cannot be concealed, so they pollute them with various information, and successfully make the whole world enter a harmonious atmosphere of modern civilization, even better than the earth in the previous life.
But if those extraordinary powers, whether demons or gods, can really appear, even if the major political bodies hide it together, they will not be able to block everyone's mouths and eyes.
The reason for this range is that Tang Qi found the answer on the next page.
Or rather, the possible answer.
It turned out that a hundred years ago, a magical meteor streaked across the Origin Blue Star, and then overnight, all the transcendent phenomena disappeared.
In its place, science flourished.
Soon, in just one hundred years, the entire Origin Blue Star has made more brilliant achievements than the past thousand years, except for some areas and the Sahar continent There are wars from time to time, most of the regions of the Origin Blue Star are very civilized and prosperous.
In view of this, many governments or races have adopted a new calendar after the meteor, and the Condor Federation is one of them.
That's why Tang Qi saw the words "102 years of the Condor calendar" on his admission letter.
The Condor calendar here is actually the new Condor calendar.
If you convert to the old calendar, you would have to add at least thousands of years to that number.
The fragmented and wonderful historical process of the Origin Blue Star made Tang Qi a little obsessed, and he didn't notice that he had stepped into the main campus, and the surrounding voices began to boil, and people shuttled back and forth.
At this moment, Tang Qi suddenly felt a pain in his forehead, his body shook and almost fell, and he finally stood still, but out of the corner of his eye, he saw that the figure he bumped into was about to fall to the ground, Tang Qi subconsciously reached out a hand and grabbed the man's waist.
"Ahh
When the crisp and nice scream entered his ears, Tang Qi also felt the soft flesh feeling coming from his palm.
"It's a girl!"
Tang Qi was in his heart, and immediately made a judgment.
