"On the 29th of October, the leader of the Secret Order, Zaratul, visited me again. He didn't mention anything specific and only casually chatted for a while. I was unable to guess his true intentions. It seemed like he only wanted to strengthen our communication and understanding of each other?
"Having already met two High-Sequence Beyonders of the Church, I felt that Zaratul was stronger and more mysterious than them. Therefore, I asked him in passing without much hope, asking him what Sequence he was at. In the end, he actually answered me!
"He said that he was a Sequence 2 Miracle Invoker!"
"Sequence 2? In the Church's classification, that's an angel, a level close to that of a deity! "
"As expected, he's stronger than the Alchemists and Arcane Scholars I met before!"
"However, my intuition tells me that Zaratul wasn't telling the whole truth. Sequence 2 might just be his previous position, or perhaps he's about to advance."
"Miracle Invoker? A master who's good at creating miracles? The name of this potion really makes one's imagination run wild! "
"This is the corresponding Sequence 2 of Seer, a Miracle Invoker who controls fate?"
"I probed Zaratul and asked if the so-called miracles were the miracles of fate? Is the Seer pathway a pathway that gradually understands fate, grasps fate, and controls fate? "
"Zaratul skipped the first question. He told me that fate is only a part of the Seer pathway, and it doesn't even belong to the main body. The pathway that truly represents fate is Monster!"
"He gave a few examples. They were all potion names of the Monster Sequence. Sequence 7: Lucky, Sequence 5: Winner, Sequence 2: Prophet, as well as the top of the Sequence 1: Snake of Mercury! This is also known as the Snake of Fate. "
"This is the first Sequence 1 I know of. It hit me right on the mark!"
"According to what I know, the Monster pathway should be controlled by the Life School of Thought. This school of thought also seems to have a portion of the Apothecary pathway. They advocate the three divisions of the World of Absolute Rationality, the World of Spirits, and the World of Matter. Yes, it's pretty cool."
"Zaratul told me that the Life School of Thought is good at astrology. They pursue the path of using medicine, music, light, wine, and fragrance to harmonize the soul, eliminating unfavorable astrological signs and unfavorable fate. They believe that disasters and diseases are caused by the imbalance between humans and nature, between humans and their minds."
"He also added meaningfully that the Life School of Thought worships the moon."
"Why worship the moon and not the Evernight Goddess?"
This diary took up two pages and was obviously copied from the front and back of the original.
There's a lot of information … Klein sighed silently from the bottom of his heart.
This was also the first time he knew the name of a Sequence 1 potion.
The Snake of Mercury and the Snake of Fate could easily make people yearn for them!
And this is also the first time I've learned of a Sequence 2, the corresponding Sequence 2 of Seer … The name Miracle Invoker isn't bad. It's rich in meaning, and its level isn't low. Of course, compared to Prophet, it feels a little inferior …
Fate is only a part of the Seer pathway. It's not even the main body. I have to remember this point and constantly examine myself. I can't stray from fate, or it might cause me to fail my acting … Zaratul's words have been corroborated, and there's no problem … The Monster pathway is the true path of fate … So a Prophet is a Sequence 2. Now that I think about it, I actually knew of a Sequence 2 in the past …
Although Klein's gaze didn't move away from the paper, he began to seriously consider his own Sequence chain.
Due to the digestion experience of the Seer and Clown potions, as well as the evolution from prying into fate and revering fate to having a slight premonition of fate, but still feeling helpless against fate, he gradually equated the core essence of his Beyonder pathway with a deep understanding of fate. If not for this diary entry, he might very well have used this as a premise to understand and act out the subsequent Sequences.
As for whether Zaratul was lying or not, Klein was certain that the Monster pathway was definitely the Fate Sequence. This matched the description he had read from the Nighthawks' internal information, and it also matched the name of the potion, Prophet, that he had long heard of.
Since there was a Fate Sequence, there was a high chance that the Seer pathway wouldn't overlap with the other pathway. This would result in a certain degree of overlap, and it would be inconsistent with the different characteristics of the various Sequences.
Therefore, Klein was inclined to believe in Zaratul's words. He was inclined to believe that fate was only a part of the Seer pathway, and it didn't even belong to the main body.
The value of these two diary pages is immeasurable to me now … Alchemist and Arcane Scholar should be High-Sequence Beyonders of the Savant pathway. From Rosell's tone, they definitely don't belong to Sequence 2 or 1. That is to say, one is Sequence 4, and the other is Sequence 3 … I'm temporarily unable to determine who is Sequence 4 and who is Sequence 3 … Klein reined in his thoughts, flipped through the diary, and continued reading.
As for why the Life School of Thought only worshiped the moon and not the Evernight Goddess who symbolized the crimson moon, he wasn't able to think too deeply about it due to the lack of relevant information.
The third diary page was Rosell's mental journey of inventing a practical steam engine. He was worried about being suppressed by others, and he was afraid that the results would be snatched away by important figures. His words revealed that he was being persecuted by others.
I never expected that Rosell The Great, who thinks of himself as the protagonist of this era, would have such a nervous and worried side … The corner of Klein's mouth twitched as he flipped to the fourth diary page.
"18th April. Matilda is pregnant."
"This is to be expected. I can even tell you the exact moment of lovemaking, because I felt the decrease in my Beyonder characteristic."
"Once the pregnancy is successful, my own Beyonder characteristic will follow a mysterious connection and transfer a portion of it to my child."
"After that, I worriedly asked Archbishop Van Estin. He told me that this is a normal phenomenon. Beyonder characteristics at Sequence 7 and below won't be passed down to their descendants, but it's not absolute. Sequence 6 and 5 will naturally pass down a portion, but not much. It won't affect one's strength too much, and that child will be born with certain Beyonder powers that are close to Sequence 9. But correspondingly, his pathway will be fixed."
"At High Sequences, the inheritance of Beyonder characteristics is something that can be controlled. One can choose to inherit it or not inherit it. One can also choose to inherit a little, a third, half, or all of it."
"In other words, the child of a High-Sequence Beyonder might be born a Beyonder. As for the Sequence, it's up to his father or mother."
"I wonder if the descendants of deities are the same …"
After reading this diary entry, there were only two phrases in Klein's mind: "Law of Beyonder Characteristics Indestructibility" and "Law of Beyonder Characteristics Conservation."
This is the law of survival for Beyonder creatures? It's no wonder that some magical animals only give birth before they die … It's no wonder that there's a phenomenon of killing and bloodlust after giving birth. The target is of the same species, or even a partner. This is to replenish the Beyonder characteristic … According to this logic, going all the way up, where did the earliest Beyonder characteristics come from? Out of thin air? The Creator who created everything?
As Miss Justice had advanced to Telepathist, Klein controlled the urge to nod and continued reading.
The fifth page was Rosell's lamentations. He lamented that no one here could appreciate his pop music and thought that he was making noise. At the same time, he lamented that refreshing literature was a common pursuit of different people in different Worlds. The novel that was plagiarized from The Count of Monte Cristo was very popular, allowing the newspaper he founded to flourish.
… Emperor, is there anything else you haven't done? With a smile, Klein turned to the sixth page, which was also the last page.
"10th November. I secretly met with the pirate Savini Solomon at the White Maple Palace. I hoped that he would plunder my opponents on the new sea route and attack the ships of Feysac, Rouen, and Feynapotter."
"And I promised to help him advance to a High-Sequence Beyonder."
"The potion names of the Beyonder pathway of the Dark Emperor are as strange as the Demoness pathway. Corruption, Chaos, Depravity, Disorder … However, in order to echo the Dark Emperor, they added suffixes on their own. Baron of Corruption, Mentor of Chaos, Earl of The Fallen, Prince of Disorder."
"In order for Savini to live up to his name in the future, I decided to secretly confer him the title of Court Earl."
"Savini has a child named Nast Solomon. My intuition tells me that he will dominate the Five Seas in the future."
Nast Solomon … King of the Five Seas, Nast? The one who claims to be a descendant of the Solomon Empire, Nast? He was actually born during Rosell's time! Klein was stunned.
As Rosell had mentioned the term "new sea route," Klein easily determined the corresponding year.
The discovery of the new sea route and the Southern Continent happened in 1194, and the assassination of Rosell happened in 1198. The diary entry could only be between the two.
That also meant that it was 151 to 155 years ago.
If the King of the Five Seas, Nast Solomon, is really the Nast Solomon that Rosell mentioned, then he's almost 160 years old … Is this due to some other reason, or is it because High-Sequence Beyonders receive an extended lifespan to begin with … Klein thought in thought.
Restraining his speculations, he made the diary disappear from his hand and looked at Justice and the others.
"You can trade or communicate freely now."
Mr. Fool doesn't have any general knowledge to tell us today … Audrey felt a little disappointed. She turned her eyes and looked at Sun diagonally across her.
"Can I exchange information related to dragons from you?"
She clearly remembered that Mr. Sun had referred to the Spectator pathway as the Dragon pathway and indicated that it originated from the dragons.
"Yes, I wish to obtain the Sequence 8 potion formula of the Bard pathway," Derrick, who had been silent all this while, replied hesitantly.
