After dinner, Kieran left the room alone.
After entering Gordor, facing the plague and his initial goal of searching for information, he didn't have the time to stroll around the small land.
In fact, even if he had the time, Kieran wasn't interested in strolling around.
Cherishing his time had almost become Kieran's instinct.
However, after the appearance of the God of Knowledge in Gordor, Kieran's interest was piqued.
Kieran had always been curious about the Gods in this dungeon world.
Especially when he realized the Gods in this dungeon world were quite different from the ones in the big city, Kieran's interest was piqued.
Gordor was quiet at night.
Other than the patrolling soldiers, only the scholars gathered together to discuss the situation.
Even from afar and through the window, Kieran could clearly hear the scholars arguing.
They didn't give in to each other, yet they respected the truth and were diligent in their studies.
Everything was no different from the rumored Gordor Land.
Other than the lord of Gordor who went missing during the plague and those who cured the plague and spread the news about Demigod Ryan to the whole of Yort Fields, everything was normal.
The people searched hard for the lord of Gordor for days. It was obvious that the lord of Gordor had disguised himself quite well, at least gaining the recognition of most of the people. However, as time went by, the living had to move on. Only a handful of people from the lord's family were still searching for him.
As for the latter?
Every single one of them expressed their devotion to Kieran.
The flame in his mind told him that he was indeed devoted.
At least, it was at that moment.
Forgetting was human nature.
Kieran wouldn't force it, nor would he force it.
Because he had already gotten what he wanted.
The flame in his mind grew bigger, and as the news of what happened here spread to further places, it would soon burn even more fiercely.
Kieran was very confident about that.
It was worth noting that other than scholars, Gordor had the most wandering poets.
Of course, other than the future rewards, Kieran also had the most direct benefits.

You can store the Plague Arrow, maximum of 2 arrows]
…
[Plague Knight Body Tempering Art] leveling up would increase Kieran's Constitution by 1, and after reaching Transcendence, it would increase Kieran's Constitution by another 1.
Two increases in Constitution boosted Kieran's Constitution from Strong I ZZZ + to V Constitution, which was close to rank II.
Of course, the expected outcome didn't surprise Kieran.
What surprised Kieran was when [Plague Knight Body Tempering Art] reached Transcendence, it started to resonate with [Dawn Knight Body Tempering Art] which was already at Transcendence.
It wasn't the vague feeling anymore.
It was real now.
The Dawn Force and Plague Force in his body were pumped through his heart and circulated throughout his body before returning to Fusion Heart.
Throughout the process, both of them were getting faster and faster, almost completing a cycle together.
The transformation speed of his body was a few times faster under such circumstances. It wasn't like before, where it would take a few decades for the transformation to take effect, but a few years would be enough.
However, a few years was still too long for Kieran.
"Maybe there's another way!"
Kieran thought as he walked.
He couldn't return to the [Failed Great Detective] dungeon world, but even if he could, his current condition wasn't something the old Knight could solve.
After all, there were five Origin Forces in his heart, far more than just Dawn and Plague Force.
The moment [Plague Knight Body Tempering Art] reached Transcendence, Kieran instinctively wanted to merge the five Origin Forces together to see if there would be any chemical reaction every second.
However, the pain from his heart told Kieran what he should do.
Stop!
He had to seal the thought.
"Is it Constitution?
Or is it the problem of the Origin Forces fusing?
Or the fusion of the Origin Forces has exceeded the limit of my heart? "
More questions popped up in Kieran's mind.
However, no one could provide him with an answer.
He couldn't possibly find someone to answer him either.
He could only rely on himself to explore.
No doubt it would be an extremely difficult path for him.
Fortunately, Kieran was used to it.
Similar to how he didn't find any traces of the God of Knowledge in Gordor Land.
Failure would put him in a bad mood, but it wouldn't discourage him.
He would reevaluate everything and start again.
After circling around Gordor Land for another round, Kieran returned to the manor in the tower. This time, he didn't go back to the house that recorded the history of 300 years ago. Instead, he went to the house that recorded the Gods, which was located at the right corner of the manor.
The two houses looked exactly the same from the outside.
However, the books inside were like heaven and earth.
The former had more than a hundred books in its collection and on the empty bookshelf, there were only two books and one of them was the "Analysis of Naveya Temple Development" that Kieran had read before.
Picking up the book, Kieran roughly flipped through it. After making sure it was the same as the one he had read before, he turned his attention to the other book.
It had a black cover with a brown rope that was tied into a dead knot.
Then …
Under Kieran's gaze, the book started to turn transparent, as if it was about to disappear.
Kieran didn't fight for the book when it disappeared like others.
