After getting along with Angus for a long time, you will unconsciously be impressed by his knowledge and demeanor.

Although Lin An never forgot the murder made by the prisoner, even the more Angus was impressed by her, the more this jealousy and hatred became more and more ingrained.

However, due to the professor's theological communication, even if the two are wary of each other, it is inevitable that some personal thoughts and opinions will be revealed in the content of the conversation, not to mention, the two themselves know each other and have had some exchanges.

Therefore, over time, Lin An gradually realized that although Angus had concealed his identity and approached him, he had some exchanges of ideas with Angus in the past, and although Angus had some concealment, Angus could not be completely deceitful.

In addition, many of the theological works in Lin An's hands were found in Angus's library in this secret house, and even a large part of them were forbidden books and secret histories forbidden by the Holy See, which was simply more extensive than the collections of the most knowledgeable historians and theologians.

The content and scope of the collection can largely reflect the inner position of a scholar.

In view of the fact that Angus would not have expected that this place would be occupied by Lin Anjiu, the secrecy of this sub-plane secret place is likely to be the hermitage of Angus to avoid the tracking of the main plane, so the authenticity and credibility of the layout in it have considerable value and reference value.

So, in many cases, although Angus's gentle demeanor and tone of conversation downplay most of the personal thoughts and opinions of the content he teaches, a keen person like Lin An, in his careful observation and attitude dissection, will occasionally perceive the bitterness and sarcasm of some of Angus's obscure words, as well as his rebellion against the gods that despise authority more than traditional mages.

This rebellion is not the same as the subordination and criticism of the unbelievers, such as the group of mages, who place the ego at a lower level, but is an indescribably subtle attitude.

If you want to describe it, Lin An feels that it can't even be described as likes and dislikes, but a kind of non-emotional exclusivity, like racial division, which is objective. It does not change due to good racial relations or bad relations.

Intelligent beings at the mortal level, normally, do not have such an attitude, even if they know something about the gods. Nor will there be a natural rejection of the gods - just as rabbits will hate humans who destroy their nests, but they cannot be born to reject humans from living on the same land.

This situation made Lin An capture some kind of inspiration.

On this day, after recording a real observation log, Lin An flipped through some of the previous records, and suddenly sighed.

"Actually, based on your experience and knowledge, I would not be surprised if you become a powerful mage, a profound scholar, or the most devout believer, but your goal is to become a god. It's weird.

I'm not saying it's ridiculous to have the goal of a mortal trying to become a god, and as strange as it sounds, I'm surprised by another point.

You know, a person's mind. It is closely related to his experience:

A farmer's son who had never heard of magic could not have wanted to become a mage;

It is also difficult for a young child, surrounded by the devout believers, not to be brainwashed by the hymns and dogmas that are chanted every day;

When a person eats sweet fruit from a foreign land, he remembers the aroma of the fruit, but he generally does not try to cross the ocean and run away to a foreign land to become a fruit grower, especially if he does not know whether the fruit tree is a shrub or a tree, whether it grows in the ground or on a branch. How to water and fertilize must be in the case of his own step-by-step exploration.

So I'm curious about this, what kind of experience did you have to make becoming a god your goal at this age? ”

Lin An looked directly at Angus, his eyes flashing with curiosity:

"If you compare this goal to successfully growing that sweet fruit, you are your age. It is still necessary to collect fruit tree branches to understand what kind of fruit tree it is. ”

"Interesting inquiry," Angus remained calm, "I suppose you may have already inferred?" "It's so calm that it's not me who is being studied as a real object

"It's far from being a corollary. At best, it is a conjecture, or a conjecture that has no basis at all.

You know, as a mage, when you think, you often have a set of mindsets, or thinking tools, and according to my tools, plus some information about personality research, I will divide the possible causes of your personality stereotypes into two types: internal and external causes.

"I want to hear about it."

Angus crosses his fingers and poses elegantly and naturally, as if there are no shackles on his body, and he plays the role of listener intently.

Lin An glanced at him.

"Internally, well, in some of the writings I've read, there have been references to people who are born to know.

The real case is often a baby who has just been out of the womb for a short time.

In a very short time, they were able to speak and walk, learn to draw inferences, and in particular, to name the events and names of people who had never been to places they had traveled thousands of miles away, and to speak the language spoken in distant lands as if they were vivid - of course, the ending was not very good, and because of the secular ideas of the people, such babies were often burned as demons and evil spirits.

Therefore, the mages who traveled here and collected similar information could not see the examples, but could only collect anecdotes.

However, this situation is not an isolated case, and it has long been circulated in mage circles, so some mages agree with the truth of this kind of example, and speculate through guò sophistication and practice that the emergence of this situation may be due to some unknown factor, which leads the soul in the mother's womb to absorb some soul fragments with memories.

Or, to put it a little more ethereal, maybe it's the reincarnation of folklore legends, or the work of some evil mage or witch......"

"So, you think I'm the reincarnation of someone with a soul memory, or rather, soul fusion?"

To put it more simply, it is better to directly say that it is a real yàn product.

"You can't deny that the Holy See has strong motives and conditions for this." Lin An's voice was soft, if you didn't look at the poison of the words, it would be as pleasant as a song.

The two looked at each other.

Although they didn't say it to each other, they all knew each other's unfinished words - after all, Angus's life experience and various backgrounds were too consistent to be mind-blowing.

Angus thought for a moment.

“…… Whereas, I have no way of knowing what happened before I was born, I really can't rule out this possibility," as if a train of thought was opened, Angus looked at Lin An, "then. If this is the internal cause, what about the external cause? ”

Don't accept it so quickly......

Lin An thought silently, I don't know if it was intentional or not, Angus was always inadvertently. Every now and then remind him of his perverted nature.

After experiencing the time travel, seeing the sojourn of Kronos, the devil and Titi, a magical creature that sucks souls for a living, Lin An is much more receptive to soul reincarnation, she originally intended to create pressure on Angus and disturb his mind, but now it seems that she has been countered.

After a little entanglement in Angus's acceptance of this, Lin An continued:

"What ...... external causes"

Putting away the notes on his legs, another dark brown leather notebook appeared, and Lin An spread out the pages of the book and turned to a certain page. The quill wrote a few paragraphs on it before he said:

"All I can think of is the power of faith."

She looked up and looked at Angus quietly.

"You're the first person I've ever seen who can absorb the power of faith and incorporate it into your own power."

I looked at those black eyes that seemed to be able to penetrate my heart for a long time. Angus didn't answer and asked, "Why do you speculate?" ”

"You should have guessed the books in the library."

Lin An said, "At first, I thought that those books on magic were the focus, but then I realized that maybe those books were purely theoretical about the study of the mind and faith. That's the key. ”

She can lock Angus in the small dark room until she becomes neurotic, and the reason why she comes to communicate from time to time is certainly not without purpose.

If more than half of her speculations are correct, then Angus, who is in captivity, may be the most precious object of observation in history!

The gray-blue eyes slowly closed. A smile escaped from the corner of Angus's mouth.

"It's Lynn...... You guessed it right, absorbing and refining the power of faith is related to controlling the mind. He only affirmed the point behind Lin An's words.

"Sure enough, the Holy See is studying...... Well, I seem to have another reason why I can't kill you! ”

Lin An was depressed for a moment, "And it looks like this." I need to strengthen this prison. ”

The smile on the corner of Angus's mouth couldn't help but turn into a bitter smile, although it was expected, but Lin An's thinking couldn't help but jump too fast.

"You seem to have made up your mind to stay in this subplane for a long time?"

"A safe and undisturbed retreat, isn't it?" Lin An said.

"I thought you might be concerned about the main plane." Jingle and the chain in Angus's right hand was dragged with a slight sound.

"Being trapped in this sub-plane is not what I want, but I don't think it can trap me for too long," Lin An smiled faintly, "I admire your willpower, but in terms of the ability to adapt to the environment, I am afraid that I am far superior to you." ”

Through the conversation just now, Lin An already roughly knew why Angus had been able to hold out for so long.

But it seemed that he was also approaching his limit—or rather, he was trying to show her that he was close to his limit.

Putting away the notes, Lin An stood up

Angus looked at her back, and the metal door had slid open automatically.

"Actually, in addition to the portal, there is another exit from this sub-plane."

Lin An's back paused.

"To the Demon Realm." The voice behind him continued.

"Have you been?"

"I've been."

Lin An, who was facing the metal door, raised his eyebrows, "Where is it?" ”

"Take this as the zero point...... Angus said a cross coordinate that is commonly used by mages.

Lin An nodded, "I see." ”

She didn't look back, and walked out of the metal door.

The doorway is closed.

Lin An's straight back relaxed, and he turned around, as if he could see the situation inside through the metal door that depicted the divine magic array.

Her gaze slowly focused on a point in the air.

"After so long, it's finally been pried open a little!"

Lin An said to himself, a little proud, Angus, who can suppress his willpower, is of course a sense of accomplishment.

"But there's no need to rush now, wait, wait for Athena's situation...... The demon world is just the best policy. ”
