Chapter 233: The Jomon Empire

"It turns out that this is the development of spells, but I didn't expect that those 15 ancient characters still hide such a mystery."

In the blink of an eye, Chen Qi's cram school has been in school for 4 days.

According to the schedule set by Caroline and the others, Chen Qi and the others could only stay on the Kite for five days, and then they had to go to the outer ring to carry out a mission.

In the past four days, more than 30 seniors have taken turns to answer questions and provide one-on-one counseling.

Of course, the most important part is of course the explanation by the three examiners including Caroline.

This includes spell development, which is the most important in the Master phase.

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

In the past, the spells that Chen Qi and the others had learned were basically ready-made.

It can be said that you know what it is, but you don't know why.

But when it comes to the master stage, because there are too many types of psionic energy, the special psionic energy that everyone smelts is also different.

Using generic spells is simply not enough to bring out the true strength of the controller.

If the controller wants to truly maximize their strength, they must adjust the spell according to their own understanding to match their own spiritual energy.

This can only be regarded as a spell transformation.

The truly gifted type of person relies on their own psionic knowledge to create spells for themselves.

This is spell development.

The key to this is the in-depth understanding and study of the 15 ancient scripts.

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

[Jomon], [Buwen], [Domu Luowen].

[Cloud Text], [Flame Text], [Clay Text], [Golden Text], [Sleeping Text], [Inscription], [Etching Text], [Ghost Text], [Voiced Text], [Void Text], [Elephant Text], [Scale Text].

These are the 15 ancient characters recorded in the "Encyclopedia of Basic Knowledge of Ancient Civilizations".

Chen Qi has always been very curious, and tens of thousands of ancient civilizations have been discovered by human beings.

Why these 15 ancient characters were used as teaching materials for the transcendent stage?

Why these 15 ancient characters have special powers, capable of constructing spells.

All of these questions were answered in the cram class.

According to Caroline, or the explanation of the Heavenly Witchcraft Academy, the reason why these 15 ancient characters are so special is that they can enjoy special treatment.

Because they are the "afterglow of civilization", they carry and record 15 disappeared human civilizations.

Remember, it is only disappearance, not perdition.

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

When these ancient scripts were first discovered, most of them were inscribed in the ruins of civilization.

They may be carried by a stone tablet or a clay tablet.

In short, at the time when they were first discovered by humans.

They're just ordinary scratches, nothing special.

But as humanity has finished interpreting them, especially after learning about the civilization that created these words.

These words are starting to become special and have all kinds of magical effects.

The explanation for this incomparably miraculous phenomenon is that the civilization that created these words has not died.

When humans recognized these words, they became connected with them, and those vanished civilizations once again projected their power into the world.

The more widely these words are used, and the more they are known about the history behind them, the more powerful these ancient scripts will be.

One day, those ancient civilizations that have disappeared will re-emerge with the help of this connection.

The major sects in the world have even agreed on an exclusive title for this type of civilization, [Civilization of Gods], or [Ascension Civilization].

It was a very special form of civilization, and its power was comparable to that of a god-like person.

In the era of ancient cultivation, there was no shortage of sects that worshiped this kind of civilization incomparably.

They promoted the use of ancient scripts with special powers to spread the civilization behind them.

Those things that originally recorded these ancient characters were called "sacrificial vessels" or "sacred objects", and they were offered to worship and worship.

And these sacrificial vessels or artifacts are also regarded by them as coordinates to welcome the arrival of [God].

Or it is used to find the existence of God in the infinite nothingness.

For example, the [Mother of All Things] of the Life Sect is such a sacrificial vessel.

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

According to historical records, the [Mother Snail of All Things] of the Life Sect was originally just a small conch found by a fisherman in the sea, and then inadvertently fell into the hands of a certain scholar.

After this scholar completed the interpretation of the words on the conch, the [Sect of Life] was born.

The legend of the artifact [Mother of All Things] also appeared at that time.

And with the continuous expansion of the Life Sect, the Mother Snail of All Things has become more and more magical and powerful.

Even in the world at that time, all the sects believed that the Life Sect was very likely to be the first to find God.

It's a pity that "it fell short"!

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

"Before the birth of the world government, there were not only 15 kinds of ancient characters with special effects circulating in the world."

"On the contrary, there are hundreds of such ancient scripts."

"The reason why those ancient characters have disappeared now, at least in the inner ring world, is because the world government has decided that the civilization that created those ancient characters does not belong to human civilization."

"Only the 15 ancient scripts we use now, the civilization behind them, has been recognized by the world government as a human civilization."

"Therefore, if you encounter other special ancient characters in the future, you must not learn or use them."

"Those sects that wantonly spread other ancient characters are the [cults] defined by the world government, and they must not be merciful when encountered."

"Since you want to join the top ten super spell academies, you must always stand on the side of human civilization and support the world government."

This is Caroline's "earnest teaching" after a certain lecture, and Chen Qi is really impressed.

He finally knew the Spirit Manifesto NO.5, "Never Betray Human Civilization".

and NO.7, why does [agree with the World Government's definition and division of human beings] exist.

It really means that you are, you are, and you don't!

Say no, it's not, yes and no.

If you're not convinced, let's play V5 first.

According to Caroline, there are only 14 [Orthodox Churches] recognized by the world government.

It corresponds to 14 sects that control the sacrificial vessels of the "source of ancient writing".

The reason why there are only 14 is because the sacrificial vessels that record Jomon fell into the hands of the Jomon Empire, which is the second largest country.

People don't bother to surrender their status and mix it up with sects.

With the exception of these 14 Orthodox Christians, the other denominations are only legal.

As for those who possess other ancient writing ritual vessels, they are naturally proper cults.

The kind that everybody yells and beats.

It can be said that after Caroline's "teachings", Chen Qi finally saw the strength of the world government, and it is really "only my truth is the truth." โ€

Fortunately, those cults were all in the outer ring world, and Chen Qi and they couldn't get in touch at all.

As for those strange ancient characters, Chen Qi can be regarded as completely extinguishing his mind of research.

He was a good citizen.

And just the 15 ancient characters in front of him are enough for him to spend his thoughts.

Jomon, in particular, is the core of the construction of mantras, and it can even be said that almost all spells in the future cannot get rid of it.

The energetic knowledge involved in the expansion of this kind of text, even Chen Qi, who claims to be a genius, is a bit difficult to learn.

Of course, this is also because the time is too short.

In just a few days, Chen Qi wanted to catch up with the progress of others for more than ten years, how could it be possible not to tire down brain cells?

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

Fortunately, there are still skills in spell construction, and there are even ready-made templates and formulas.

The new law was born for 3,000 years, and there is still some accumulation and foundation for this.

Chen Qi and the others were directly indoctrinated like a jujube.

Caroline didn't expect them to be able to construct spells now, she just hoped that these candidates would tweak their general spells to increase their combat effectiveness.

Five days passed in a hurry, and Chen Qi and others reluctantly left the Sea Kite.

There's no way to leave it, they've all run out of points.

There is no lottery, no new knowledge can be obtained, and they can only stare here.

It's better to go and hunt the orcs and accumulate points again.

Speaking of the lottery, Chen Qi's 5,000 points successfully came to a 50-draw draw.

As for the result, it can only be said that it is not satisfactory.

After removing the shared knowledge, only three memories were secretly hidden by Chen Qi.

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

The first memory is a spell unique to the master of the 4th spiritual ascension.

The spell is called [Peeling the Cocoon], and it is a very peculiar spell.

The effect of this spell is to extract the [Silk of Life] from the living body.

Once the silk threads in the living body are exhausted, the living body will rapidly age and die.

The first time Chen Qi saw this spell, he felt that it had a fate with him.

Isn't this stealing vitality!

It's a pity that the person who created this spell is a little lower, this spell can only extract the life thread of ordinary life, and the other party can't resist yet.

It simply cannot be used in real combat.

If this spell falls into the hands of other candidates, they can only use it to kill the lab mice.

But Chen Qi has other ideas.

He still admired some of the ideas of the spell creator.

The effect that the other party can't achieve, he may not be able to.

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

The second memory in Chen Qi's private collection is a reading memory called [Tongyoulu].

This ghost refers to the 15 ancient scripts.

The Secret Record is a book that introduces the text in detail.

It is different from the ancient characters such as cloud script and flame script that are often used.

Among the 15 ancient characters at the bottom of the ranking, Chen Qi has never seen any spells used until now.

It's a very strange thing.

It's as if they don't fit in with the rest of the text.

But since the world government also defines those ancient characters as human civilization, they must be usable, it should just be that Chen Qi has too little knowledge of spells.

The greatest characteristic of the text is that it can suppress the spiritual frequency of life.

According to the Secret Record, human beings can even infinitely reduce their spiritual frequency through the Ghost Text, and then come into contact with another world.

It's a pity that there is no specific secret method in Tongyoulu, just a hasty introduction and popular science.

Otherwise, Chen Qi really wanted to see a world with negative spiritual frequency.

More precisely, it is the world in which beings with negative spiritual frequencies live.

That's supposed to be an incredible level.

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

As for the third memory in Chen Qi's private collection, it's not that it is cherished and precious, but that it is too inappropriate to share.

It seemed to be a picture of a brother studying body forging.

Under the heavy rain, he received thunder and lightning, resisted with his body, and then half of his body turned into charcoal.

The only lesson Chen Qi learned from this scene is not to fly kites on rainy days.

The memory fragments obtained by Chen Qi and others by lottery are actually stored in the box of knowledge.

As long as they wanted, they could project it through the jade rune.

It's no different from a movie, it's not immersive at all.

The reason why Chen Qi didn't share this picture is that in addition to the deceased, he can't publicize the troubles after the death of others.

Another important reason is that when he was forging his body, he imprinted some "special ancient characters" on his body.

This is a bit taboo, Chen Qi doesn't want to make trouble for himself.

It seems that even if the world government explicitly prohibits it, there are still many people who secretly learn other ancient scripts.

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

"Brother Chen, are you really not going to act with us?"

"It's safer for the five of us to team up and explore and search for abandoned labs."

Outside of the Sea Kite, Chen Qi was saying goodbye to several friends.

During the 5 days of study, Chen Qi was willing to share knowledge, and he still made a few friends.

At this time, they returned to the outer ring to carry out the mission, and Yang Jichang and others, whom they had met before, planned to invite Chen Qi to form a team.

After all, although the outer ring has a high safety factor, it only means that they do not die.

Now they have to search the abandoned laboratory to find clues to the Longevity Village.

The risk is unpredictable.

Perhaps many laboratories are empty and unsafe.

But the devil knows what kind of experiments those crooked ways are going on here, but if there is a little weird thing left in the lab, it will be enough for them to be unlucky.

You don't see that Wei Qingran examiner, isn't it also a big loss in the laboratory.

For the kindness of Yang Jichang and others, Chen Qi could only refuse.

He has his own plans, and it is more convenient to act alone in the future.

The most important thing is that there are outsiders, and it is really inconvenient for Chen Qi to "go all out".

Compared to other candidates, his current strength is a bit too incredible.

For example, the few people in front of him add up to not enough for Chen Qi to make a move in seconds.

If he runs into trouble while exploring, he can't die without help.

But if his true strength is exposed because of this, Chen Qi will not be willing.

A foot beyond others is a genius, but a foot beyond others is a demon.

Chen Qi felt that he still didn't want to hit other people's self-confidence.

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

Regarding Chen Qi's resignation, Yang Jichang and others didn't care.

Everyone was already meeting each other, and at this time it was just a huddle to keep warm.

Since people have other plans, they will naturally not be uninteresting.

To be honest, there are really a lot of people like Chen Qi who choose to act alone.

After all, although Shengxian Island is dangerous, it is also full of opportunities.

The candidates who can come here are all full of confidence in their talent and luck.

Acting in a group, that is the cowardly weak.

How long have you known each other before you can trust your heart to life and death?

In case the treasure is current, who can guarantee that no one will stab the rear?

Of course, there is no shortage of people who plan to be "lazy" and ready to wander around the major human settlements.

Anyway, they are also completing the task to help the senior sister search for the three little girls.

Seriously, Caroline didn't expect them to find clues about Longevity Village.

On the contrary, it is the task assigned by the senior sister, and it requires the contribution of this group of candidates.

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

After separating from everyone, Chen Qi sneaked all the way and returned to the outer ring.

After staying under 62 times the concentration of psionic energy for a long time, Chen Qi was really a little uncomfortable when he returned to the outer ring at first glance.

It's no wonder that these monsters on the island are very comfortable, and if it weren't for the Blood Moon, it would be safe to stay at the beach.

"I wonder what happened to Coleman's camp?"

"Let's go check it out!"

Although Yu Haonan and Selena did not appear on the Sea Kite, it had already made Chen Qi believe that something must have happened in the camp.

But after all, it still needs to be investigated.

Otherwise, the next time the prophecy in the wind appears again, will he believe it or not?

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

After Chen Qi deliberately avoided the location of some laboratories, he arrived at the beach without any problems.

Now all candidates have a map of all the laboratories in the outer ring.

There are more than 70 abandoned laboratories in the entire outer ring.

Most of them are from the Biochemical Path and the Animal Path, and some are from other unknown forces.

It can be said that with this map in hand, if you really want to be lazy, the survival coefficient of these candidates in the outer ring is still quite high.

But people have to pursue progress after all, such as Chen Qi.

He must show it a little, otherwise how will the account of the Youquan Spell Academy be settled?

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

"Hey, is it really destroyed?"

Before arriving at the camp, Chen Qi made a judgment.

After all, the entire coast is quiet, and not even a single figure can be seen.

And before that, it was absolutely impossible.

After all, Coleman's camp is already in the thousands, and the beach is full of people just for food.

Well, now, the whole coast is dead silent.

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

"Strange!"

"There are obvious traces of the Great War here, but what about the corpses of those orcs?"

"Was it taken away by the sand crab?"

Chen Qi cautiously approached the camp, and he found a lot of traces of orcs around.

Obviously, on the night of the Blood Moon, this camp must have also ushered in a tide of beasts.

But if the orcs really won, this place shouldn't be so clean!

Orcs are not in the habit of cleaning the battlefield.

ยทยทยทยทยทยท

"What is this?"

"A human skin?"

The camp had already been reduced to ruins, and as soon as Chen Qi stepped in, he saw a dry human skin on the ground.

Chen Qi originally thought that this was the evil of a certain beast, but as he gradually deepened, things were wrong.

Inside the camp, there were dried human skins everywhere, and Chen Qi's scalp was numb when he saw the number.

Not only humans, Chen Qi also saw a lot of orcs' hides.

Obviously, the two sides of the war were given something to the pot.

What is it that can do such a heart-wrenching thing?

Isn't that prophecy of destruction referring to the tide of beasts, but depicting the scene in front of us?
