Section 288: Before the end of the race (4)

Knowledge is like a wall, that's what it says to those who are stupid.

Knowledge is like the Tower of Babel, this is said for those who are good learners.

And knowledge is like a sea, this is said to an old curator like Constantin Julius.

As one of the very few people in the sage sequence who can live to the age of eighty, the rapid retreat is the most important reason why he can live until now - he was a genius when he was young, he became the librarian at the age of sixteen, when he was young, and when he was the most arrogant, he dived thirteen times a year, each time he made some gains in the old era, and the biggest one was when he got a strange object that the mage tower had been begging for seventy years.

It was also at that time that he became the head of the black library without knowing it.

Thankfully, before his second dive, he accidentally met the Lord of Justice who was walking on the ground, and the great being saw his problems at a glance and rescued him.

Since then, Konstantin has been careful to live.

Yes, be careful, the elders have all had an accident, and he is still alive; Something happened to his companions, he was still alive, and even later even the younger generations were degraded and sinking, but he was still alive.

It wasn't until he became the director of the think tank that Konstantin, who was forty-three years old at the time, no longer dived deeply, but began to break the dynasty for the old world.

Until then, the sages had cherished the old epochs they had mastered, and when Constantine released the first edition of his Chronicles, the entire sage and tech hunter world was boiling over - for no one had ever systematically made the otherwise chaotic old epochs into a treemap like Constantine.

The Old Era regions he had explored had been confirmed to exist by tech hunters, and after that, for the first time, the upper echelons of the Sage Sequence began to reveal their records to Konstantin.

Three years later, the second edition was put on the shelves, and the survival rate of tech hunters increased by 30% that year, and the conversion rate of the sage sequence librarian was directly reduced by half.

As a result, more and more people joined in the process of perfecting the compilation of the chronicles of the old century.

This is the last time Konstantin has participated in the publication of the ninth edition of the Broken Chronicles, and next year, he will make the Broken Chronicles completely public and hand them over to an editorial team to complete the next one.

Thinking of this, the old man sitting in the rocking chair noticed the carriage outside the window.

It was the carriage of the Morvis family.

The old man was a little curious—because when he was younger, His Majesty the King, who had aspired to be a tech hunter, had come to him to find out how much it would take to become a tech hunter.

Now that all these years had passed, he didn't know why someone from the Morvis family still came looking for him.

The carriage stopped, and the first to come down was an elven woman.

Ah, Madame Anna, Konstantin stood up - he had to pay homage to a legend who had fought chaos for many years, and this was not something he could do with his age.

Standing in front of the open door, the old man smiled at the lady and the two children behind her: "Welcome to Julius's cabin, Lady Anna of Morvis. ”

"Hello, Your Excellency the Curator, I am here today because of this child." Mrs. Anna finished pointing to the boy behind him.

Yes, boy, as cute as it may seem, Konstantin, as a psyker, does not look at people only by appearance like those young people - in his psionic vision, Lady Anna's soul is like a flame, she is so hot and pure, which is the sign of the good camp.

And the girl has a silver-haired self-appearance, which means that she has the blood of a high elf in her body, which is very pure, but not really 100% pure, because she has a human appearance.

Considering Madame Anna and His Majesty Goethe, Constantine confirmed that this must be the Princess Faye, whom he had seen for the first time as an old man who had written books at home.

In the past, she was really a beauty who captivated the country and the city.

In this case, if you can let Princess Faye accompany her, it must be Marin Gayat, who has been in a storm in the city recently.

Behind him was a tall spirit, the power projected by his soul, and everyone said he had the blood of a giant, but now it seemed to be true - this spirit had the characteristics of a giant, strong, with the raised eyebrows and braided hair characteristic of the Northern Frost Giants.

This is actually nothing, Konstantin has seen at least ten such colorful spirits in his life, all of them are very good young people, but what makes Konstantin feel awe-inspiring is the child sitting on the arm of this man wrapped in a chair.

The child, who looked like the main body, was not as godless as its twin spirits, and he looked at the world curiously, a trait that was evident that he had already dissolved psionic energy.

This is nothing, enlightened psionic energy, some children with strong bloodlines can even come into contact with the magic net at birth, and it is not uncommon for them to be exposed to psionic energy at the age of six.

What awes Konstantin the most about this child is the black energy in his hand.

This is the chaotic energy that pollutes the librarian, and the child's spirit is not controlled by it, but rather by it.

Thinking of this, Konstantin sighed: "I know your intentions, madam, but there is nothing I can do, this child should have awakened the spiritual energy on his own, I can see his spirit body in motion, and he is holding that in his hand." ”

"What?" Mrs. Anna was stunned for a moment, then immediately understood, and she turned her head in some surprise: "Is it really that?" ”

"Yes, ma'am, I don't have to lie to you, this child's psionic ability has controlled it on its own, and I think we need to contact the just church that is well-versed in dealing with chaotic energy."

Then, to Konstantin's surprise, one of the aco-priests of the Church of Justice soon arrived, and after confirming it, he gave a coordinate, and took Madame Anna and the two children back to the church directly.

Old Konstantin and the coachman were also taken away as contacts.

To be honest, Konstantin himself knows it, but the process of the chaotic energy contact is like this, and the old man can't expect to open any openings - only after a long time can he understand how terrifying the world of psionic energy is, and sometimes there is only a thin line between a sage and a wizard.

Every day, psionics face danger.

Luckily, it was the Priest Charlotte who was the vicarious head of the Church of Justice in the Archdiocese of Sidney in Regensburg, who was on the same level as the bishop and was usually responsible for psionic events the most.

As soon as he came, he saw Konstantin and immediately walked over and shook hands with him: "Is it this time to send the junior who had the accident over?" ”

Because Lady Anna went to talk to the Bishop, who also only knew Konstantin, perhaps without opening his psionic vision, he didn't notice Marin's anomaly - he didn't even notice the presence of Marin and Faye.

Is it a mind shield, or something else?

Konstantin was puzzled and pointed at Marin: "It's Mr. Marin." ”

"Mr. Marin, my God, where is he...... My goodness, Mr. Marin, sorry, I really didn't notice you. The middle-aged man walked up to Marin Gayat with some embarrassment, and he wanted to reach out, but was stopped by Konstantin: "Wait a minute, Charlotte, you better take a look at him." ”

"Look at him......" The priest was puzzled at first, then his eyes widened, and finally he turned to look at Marin: "May the Lord have mercy!" Mr. Marin, don't you feel uncomfortable about it? ”

"Not at all, sir." Marlin replied quickly, and he didn't seem to show any signs of anything bad at all.

So Charlotte took him to a chaotic energy processing ritual, and Konstantin watched as the little spirit threw that chaotic energy into the ritual circle under Marin's conscious operation.

"The ceremony was a great success." Charlotte shook hands with Konstantin as soon as she came out: "Thank you, I almost came into contact with Mr. Marin without protection, it's terrifying, it's the first time I've seen the librarian be able to control the chaotic energy that wants to pollute its spirit." ”

"Also, Mr. Marin is not the librarian." Konstantin continued to be embarrassed by him.

At this moment, Anna appeared outside the gate with the bishop who had stumbled over.

"Your Excellency, it's been resolved."

"It's wonderful, Charlotte, I'm going crazy when I heard that Mr. Marin's spirit was contaminated."

"It's not that it's polluted, Mr. Marin's spirit body has controlled that chaotic energy on its own."

Several psionic masters chatted with each other for a while, and finally asked Konstantin to come to a conclusion about the matter.

"I think there are three points to be said about this matter, one is that Mr. Marin's psionic ability thinks that this matter is very normal, after all, he has a magical affinity, and it is almost a sure fact that a person with such an excellent magical affinity as him has become a psychic." Konstantin said this and glanced at Marin who was standing aside: "The second is that Mr. Marin obviously does not have the sequence of sages, but why can he dive deep into the time period of the great destruction, according to his explanation, I think he did arrive at that timeline, and now the only doubt is that according to our historical records, the era of the great destruction is the era when the old humans destroyed each other, and I have never seen a record of the chaos invasion." ”

Speaking of this, Konstantin thought for a moment: "After hearing about Mr. Marin's previous experiences, I made a bold assumption - the old era of Mr. Marin's deep diving is not the old era that belongs to our timeline that we are familiar with, but the old era that belongs to another timeline!" That brings me to my third point. ”

"That's a great hypothesis, but how did Mr. Marin dive and rely only on spirits while he slept, but what about the previous few times?"

A few old men started another round of discussion.

Of course, no one came up with in the end, but Konstantin was very happy - because the kid finally decided to choose the Sage Sequence as his second long sequence.

Konstantin didn't know until then that this kid was able to choose three main sequences, and the strength of his spiritual power was beyond his imagination!

"Good choice, this sequence can greatly strengthen your mage native class, and the increased intelligence of your detective sequence will be beneficial for both your mage native class and the sage sequence." Konstantin felt a glimmer of joy - this child's spirit body was so powerful, he would definitely be able to climb to the highest peak of the sage sequence, and achieve heights that no one else in this era could reach.

You have to live longer, so that you can watch this child become a legend.

Konstantin swore secretly.

Before saying goodbye to the young man, out of professional habit, Konstantin asked a question.

"What do you think, son?"

………………

Marin felt that this meeting today was a good choice, and it made him understand many things that he did not understand before, so when His Excellency Konstantin was about to leave, he took the initiative to send the old man out of the church.

When he was taken to the waiting point of the carriage, and as he waited for his carriage to come, and Marin was about to turn away, the old man stopped him.

A sentence 'Child, what do you think, power.' Marin was a little surprised, but he replied quickly: "Power is a tool in our hands, Your Excellency. ”

The old man smiled and nodded, and seemed satisfied with the answer: "Then, my child, if power pushes you to the throne and power makes you supreme, will you accept such a fate?" ”

Marin thought for a moment: "Then, Your Excellency Konstantin, I can ask what price I need to pay for such strength and such a fate." ”

The old man waved his hand: "Everything in your eyes is the price, what will you do." ”

Marin smiled, then shook his head, "I'll take the heads of fate and power like this off their necks and shove their heads into their ass." ”

The old man laughed and patted Marin on the shoulder: "I hope you can remember all this today, by the way, remember to call me to watch the ceremony when you drink the sage potion, I am optimistic about you." ”

"Thank you for your advice."

Marin watched the old man leave—he could feel that the old man had been on guard against him, but if he thought about it, Marin could quite understand it, after all, not everyone could see through the hypocrisy at a glance, and notice the desire to distort his chaotic energy and successfully control it.

In the realm of psionic energy, only by living as a human spirit can he grow luxurious, and if this old Mr. Constantine is a little bit stupid, he will not be able to live to such an age.

Overall, an interesting old man.

This reminded Marlin of old Hoffman again...... When the game is over, go back to Fort Carter to spend the last time with him.

And then...... Then I went to find my cheap dad, and I don't know if this guy is dead or alive.

Hopefully he's still alive...... At least a whole corpse must be left behind.

Or rather...... At least the deformities will leave something behind when they are purified.
