my slow journey to infinity

Chapter 127 The birth of two legendary books

After his spatial ability reached the master level, Wang Shui's actions became more free.

At least on this small planet, he was no longer restrained.

Another winter has arrived.

Most of the world's land is in the northern hemisphere, so winter in the northern hemisphere always makes the world move much slower.

This fantasy world follows the actual geography of the earth and some stages of cultural development.

It took mankind just a few hundred years to achieve explosive progress in civilization, although this process was not so smooth and bright.

It only took Voldemort a few years to bring most developed areas of the world back to the living standards of the early industrial era.

In the First Wizarding Empire, the upper class naturally lived a comfortable modern civilized life.

And near the industrial belt, in that long linear densely populated area, a large number of gloomy lives are struggling to survive this winter.

Living individuals always have an instinctive fear of death. They are always struggling and trying to live.

Wang Shui is not sure whether the soul in the fantasy world is illusory, but he can indeed extract the Philosopher's Stone.

Therefore, in addition to daily research, he will also do some other tests.

The previous events of [Light Silver Coin] and [Light Silver Mold] made Wang Shui's mind as an alchemist become active. In a flash of inspiration, he created a new type of soul fragment mold.

He hasn't given the mold a name yet because it's still in the basic design stage.

But today, after he finished walking around the industrial area, the small box on his waist spit out two gray metal coins for him.

Fatigue, numbness, cold, hunger, despair, and intuitive physical pain.

All kinds of negative perceptions are condensed in these two small coins.

Merely holding them in their hands can make a transcendent person become disheartened and pessimistic.

Aqua regia sealed them.

Even without suitable isolation materials, Aqua Regia could only banish them to other spaces around him.

On the huge condensation tower, Wang Shui first looked at the industrial area in the thick fog, then looked up at the lead clouds in the sky and the lead-gray snowflakes.

He doesn't regret anything. Some feelings are indeed still binding him, but they won't bring him more sadness.

Wang Shui even felt that he was an extraordinary person and did not have to experience those despairs.

There was no movement in the space, and the aqua regia blended lightly into the background color.

At the same time, he also appeared in a warm study room.

Beside the quietly burning fireplace was Sylvia who was reading a book, and her nephrite sister who was clinging to her.

The sisters spent more than a year building a new underground laboratory and a comfortable villa above ground in the mountain forests of northern Eastern Siberia.

Wang Shui arrived at a small wooden house, but this study with a wonderful view outside the window was quickly occupied by Sylvia.

It is cold, empty, and lonely outside. In winter, the temperature can reach minus 60 degrees Celsius. Equipment directly exposed to extreme environments can easily be frozen.

But it's also really comfortable here.

Especially looking at the white world outside in a warm indoor environment always gives people a special sense of satisfaction.

It's probably like having the cool air from the air conditioner and being covered with a quilt.

“I went to the field to confirm, and consistent with statistical reports, the industrial zone is still operating at full capacity.

About 60% of the arsenal is still in production, and other production capacity has been transferred to the production of conventional materials. "

However, these supplies are not for those people.

Wang Shui sat behind his desk, looking for the end of his last work while chatting casually with Sylvia.

"It seems that they are still very confident in the proxy war." Sylvia's answer was also casual.

"Maintaining a society with a high population is also a guarantee for war. After all, those weapons need people to use them. I hope they feed the people.

However, they are a bit frighteningly stable. Even though two awakened people died, they seemed not to be affected at all. They had no intention of conducting a thorough investigation. Could it be that they believed that it was the hand of the resistance army? "

"There is something wrong with your thinking angle." Sylvia's eyes were still on the page in her hand, but this did not hinder her thinking.

"You don't have a normal experience as an awakened person, so you attach so much importance to the death of your teammates, and that's why you get obsessed with things that are dangerous to awakened people.

You must know that the awakened person is not omnipotent, and danger cannot be eliminated.

It's not that they don't want to investigate thoroughly, it's that they don't have the energy to distract themselves from doing it. If resources are devoted to hunting down threats, what about proxy wars?

For now, group defense is the best strategy. Even if there is a being that can kill the awakened ones, they can concentrate their efforts to deal with it.

Of course, we have already determined that the mole is responsible. The mole will definitely support a more conservative strategy, unless he also wants to kill more people.

The motive behind the murder of the mole is still unknown. We just need to avoid them and develop slowly on our own. Are you free? "

Wang Shui looked at the large number of documents on hand and could only helplessly shake his head.

Scattered snowflakes were still flying outside the window, and the plain white world continued to become thicker.

There was a slight crackling sound from the fireplace, and the comfortable environment made Aqua Regia quickly enter the state.

He has two important tasks at hand, one is to organize his own spell system and compile a magic book;

The other is to summarize his spatial abilities and turn his unique spatial characteristics into words.

Aqua Regia's spatial ability is completely different from the content in many related books.

His way of learning and the knowledge he comes into contact with are also different from those of ordinary academic spellcasters.

Aqua Regia once accepted synchronization with the world in exchange for knowledge of the composition of all things, and this process of assimilation gave him a different space experience.

Later, he also received gifts from the stars, which were not only "star energy" and "star knowledge", but also the space experience of the entire starry sky.

It is now difficult for Aqua Regia to enter that synchronized state. His body and soul will subconsciously get rid of the danger of assimilation.

But those experiences of becoming one with the world are something he will never forget.

Later, he got an interpretation of the world and space from another perspective from Master Chen.

For example, the [Qi] that resonates with soul and life, and the [Tao] that resonates with nothingness and existence.

From the perspective of ordinary people, these things are just some vague concepts, but for Shui Wang, these are knowledge that he can experiment and master.

The special alloy pen tip dances on the paper with mystical significance. Aqua Regia is turning his thoughts into words, symbols and pictures.

Wang Shui writes quickly, but there is a lot to write.

His life energy and soul energy that cannot be simply measured in numbers are also integrated into the alchemical ink.

The black ink sparkles with dark red, dark silver, and dark gold starlight, making every word shine like a starry sky.

In this process, his vitality, his energy, and his soul were also rapidly consumed.

At a certain point in time, a large number of Philosopher's Stones on Aqua Regia's desk began to glow. They began to support Aqua Regia in maintaining working condition and prevent him from exhausting himself.

No matter what kind of life these souls turned into stone had before, in the Philosopher's Stone modified by Aqua Regia, they are the purest soul energy.

Time never stops, it will not stop because of greatness, nor will it speed up because of insignificance.

Time is fair, and it will deduce the due results for all efforts.

Wang Shui entered a creative state without any special preparation, and by the time he gathered his mental strength and paid attention to the world again, it was already the late winter of 2004.

The scenery outside the window seems to have not changed, and the figures in front of the fireplace and on the sofa have also never changed.

Wang Shui stood up tremblingly. This was the weakest time for him since he became a transcendent.

On the desk, all the Philosopher's Stones in Aqua Regia's inventory began to turn into powder and disappear. They disappeared from this world without even leaving a trace of dust in this study.

Among the large amounts of information and manuscripts, there are two thick notebooks full of inexplicable temperament.

However, they are just thick and heavy, not very large in size, and can be held well in one hand.

The outer protective leather is embedded with aqua regia's special metal threads. Afterwards, the cover has been strengthened by alchemy, and it can be regarded as the first layer of protection for knowledge.

These protections not only protect the notebook, but also protect the readers.

Sylvia and Sister Nephrite have already come over.

The former's first reaction was to check the life status of Aqua Regia, while the latter had already started to pick up the first notebook out of curiosity.

"The content of the spellcasting system doesn't seem to be difficult?"

Regarding Sister Nephrite's comment, Wang Shui first took a sip of lemon black tea with sugar, took a breath and then replied:

"That's just an arrangement of my own spell system, mainly based on the concepts of second and third levels, and only reaches the sixth level at most."

"Only? In the huge mercenary system, there are about thirty sixth-level spellcasters. This is already a very powerful combat force.

However, given the death-seeking style of the Awakened, it is normal for people around the fourth level to come into contact with sixth-level magic.

However, you are only at the second level. "

Sylvia's question was calm, but her tone was stern.

It is very dangerous to use spells beyond the level. She has seen too many spellcasters exhaust their bodies and souls because they cannot control the amount of output.

Knowledge is dangerous.

Wang Shui's notebook, which goes from shallow to deep and is well detailed, is definitely an extremely high-quality magic book for spellcasters.

But for spellcasters with poor self-control, the above knowledge will only make them crazy and make them burn themselves out inadvertently.

"Don't worry, I have a clear understanding of my abilities. I gain strength in order to live and stay alive."

Wang Shui's words are very confident, because he really thinks so.

Nephrite had already put down the dangerous magic book and went to get another one, but then she got nothing.

"Huh? Is this a projection?"

After trying several times, she still couldn't pick up the notebook. Her hand could touch the desktop under the notebook, but no matter how she blocked it, she couldn't find the direction of the projection.

Sylvia also reached out to get it, but naturally she got nothing.

Hey, Wang Shui suddenly laughed, this was the effect he wanted.

In the shocked eyes of the two of them, Wang Shui picked up the phantom-like notebook, unlocked the copper lock, flipped through the pages, and showed it to the two of them.

Sister Nephrite reached out to catch it again. This time her hand passed through the notebook again and caught Shui Wang's hand, but Shui Wang was still holding the book.

"Touching two spaces at the same time is a wonderful experience." This is Wang Shui's emotion.

Yes, he did hold the notebook in his left hand, and he did hold Nephrite's hand. He himself was in reality.

"It seems that your spatial ability is indeed at the master level." Sylvia sincerely admired. As a former awakened person with master-level abilities, she can understand the powerful experience.

"No, it's not enough. Most of my current spatial abilities come from my own knowledge and experience, as well as the explanation of space from the cultivation system I obtained from Master Chen.

In the reality of the main world, I have only come into contact with the effects of those secret cards. That knowledge is highly encapsulated in precious cards and is difficult to analyze. Of course, I am reluctant to take it apart.

After I return, there is still a lot of systematic knowledge waiting for me to learn, and my spatial ability should grow even more.

But at the same time, everyone must also pay attention to confidentiality. I am a space mage who has not registered space secrets.

For the real extraordinary world outside, wild free space mages are more dangerous existences than those with psychic abilities. "

In fact, Wang Shui was not particularly worried about his sisters.

Including Sylvia, no one can be caught or tortured. They can commit suicide at any time, extinguish their souls at any time, and then return to the [Thinking Lock] in the Wang Shui soul partition to be reborn.

They are digital souls, much safer than ordinary souls.

Just be careful not to let anything slip. After all, they communicate a lot with the outside world.

Especially the motorcycle madman Zhan Feng. She has a three-digit number of friends who are modification enthusiasts in the vehicle market of the ruined city [Rena]. This group of friends often race together.

Aqua Regia has been unilaterally mute for more than two years. Everyone has a lot to communicate, but in order to eat, they sit around the fireplace.

The cub "Yue" was the first to visit. Their work has slowed down, production and testing have been gradually automated, and many people have begun to go out to play.

Only a few people who like to stay in the laboratory are still doing their own research in the base.

Of course, Nephrite is pure laziness.

"Moon" brought a lot of food and drinks, as well as the comprehensive supplements that Aqua Regia needed most.

Although she is still young in appearance, in terms of temperament and behavior, she has become the most mature one in the team except Sylvia.

During the two years that Wang Shui has been working hard on creating, the operation of the entire base has been supported by intelligent sisters, and "Yue" is their leader.

The fighting sisters are all trained under Sylvia to hone their fighting and commanding abilities.

"Yue" is also very interested in the books created by Wang Shui, but in order to exchange the magic book from Nephrite, she can only offer herself as a sacrifice and let Nephrite hold her in his arms and ravage her.

"Are these dark silver metallic patterns on the cover the name of the book? They are words I have never seen before."

"Yes, but it doesn't make any sense. It is a kind of personal creation that has been eliminated. It seems to have been developed by an alchemist to facilitate the operation of the alchemy array.

The effect is average, but I use it very well. "

"So, what's the name of your grimoire?"

"How about the "Water Pollution Control Guidelines"? Isn't it very domineering?"

In the already quiet study room, the atmosphere suddenly became solid.

"What? Is this a bad name? I usually restrain myself from naming products in order to facilitate recording and sales, but it took me two days to come up with this name!"

In fact, "Yue" wants to complain about the content more than the name.

"It feels like it's called the "Water Pollution Manual". The knowledge and spells you recorded are really full of [water style]. It's timid and reckless. It's either full defense and evasion, or overloaded output.

Um? Have you also recorded the alchemical spell of releasing cloud bombs at close range? !

You can't show this kind of thing to your sisters! "

"It wasn't meant for you to see..." Wang Shui defended in a low voice.

"Huh - it's been more than two years. I thought you would summarize something useful. Forget it, where is this book? This..."

The second book about space knowledge was written by "Yue" helplessly as Nephrite was placed on the table next to her, but she also missed it.

Nephrite had already begun to laugh.

Only under the control of Aqua Regia can "Yue" touch the books, but the knowledge inside is quite profound to her.

This was profound in the literal sense. After a quarter of the content, "Yue" could only watch as the words and patterns gradually moved away from her sight, or disappeared into the overlapping space.

It's a protection.

If you can't understand it and forcefully read those contents, the reader will be taken into a phase space far away from reality. It is very dangerous to get lost in these spaces.

Therefore, this book about space was named "The Lost Key" by Wang Shui.
