Overturned Tower

Chapter 118 Purple Ink

Shortly after the Birds of Paradise left, Russell left with him to find the Underdog.

And as two black and white curtains opened from the void, Tovatus appeared next to Quan Shu.

He's seen it all.

"It's really interesting..."

The discordant sighed in a low voice:

“People in uptown regard downtown as scum, and people in downtown regard uptown as pigs…

"The mages just see the aura and regard them as angels and enemies; the angels just see the spells and regard the other person as a mage and a madman. Everyone only sees the half-hearted truth and takes care of themselves. Determined the identity of the other party.

"...it kind of reminds me of an elf joke from the Earth Age."

That was when people still lived on earth, before psykers, demons, and angels existed in this world.

Dragons and elves, as rulers, are too few in number. Middle and low-level managers still can only choose from short-lived varieties...

In that era before the Internet and telephones, in order to convey real "instructions" to the grassroots, elves would sign various legal documents with a special purple ink. Or allocate purple ink to middle-level managers so that they can have a certain degree of control over lower-level managers.

It was a special dye called "Elven Purple", and only elves had mastered the special production process. That special kind of purple will never be forgotten once you see it once... and it is a capital offense to imitate this kind of purple ink, or to use purple ink to write any document without permission.

That was in an era before the death penalty had been abolished by the dragon.

But later, with the intrigues of the short-lived species, countless political conspiracies unfolded around these purple ink and the documents signed with purple ink... Later, people no longer trusted or recognized anything that was not signed with "purple ink". The written words are the same even if they are written or spoken by the elf himself.

This was also the introduction to the First World War.

This joke is passed down among all the elves.

As an example, the difference in thinking logic between elves and humans is clearly explained.

Those short-lived species will unconsciously skip several steps when they think about anything or perform any work. This is the so-called "autonomous mind".

Some of the meaningless knowledge they learned when they were in school, knowledge that emphasized "logic," "method," and "process" without "meaning"... is really just a process of exercise. The purpose is to cultivate algorithms for young children to fight against this "autonomous mind".

In the end, the purple ink itself becomes a "trigger" for the autonomous mind.

People have forgotten why they paid attention to the purple ink in the first place.

Just like some people have forgotten the starting point of the past conflicts and no longer care about the reasons for the disputes, but they still hate each other.

It is these external "shells" and easy-to-understand labels that make it impossible for these short-lived species to understand each other.

The angel's halo is a kind of "purple ink", and the mage's spells are also "purple ink"...

He who uses the power of Holy Order is a good person. Those who use psychic powers become demons.

Those who hold chips are wage slaves. Those who don't have chips are thugs and criminals.

——The elves didn’t do that much at all. People naturally differentiate between each other and criticize each other based on "labels" rather than their essence.

In this case, how could the elf feel nervous?

"It is precisely because of this that the Godfather's thoughts have unique value. As a short-lived species, he has exhausted the possibilities of short-lived thinking, and at the same time, he can also touch some of the essence of elves..."

Tovatus couldn't help but admire: "He might be able to become an 'elf'...or maybe be higher than an elf.

"What do you think, Maze?"

At this moment, at the feet of Tovatus, there was a "maze" that was tightly wrapped in a white curtain and was as motionless as a corpse in a morgue.

This is a trophy he captured with his own hands.

When he had free time later, he naturally wanted to carefully dismantle and taste the memories of the maze.

Originally, he was in a good mood because he saw "The Godfather", so he let the maze go...but he still dared to come back and cause trouble.

Do you really think you can't catch him?

After his "Toon World" is destroyed by the Moonstone's self-destruction, Tovatus appears and captures him.

He looked at the maze and frowned slightly: "Interesting. Kamalse actually instigated a mage without telling us... What does he want to do?

"In other words, what does Tian'en Group want to do?"

Tovatus knew very well that this was not part of the elves' plan.

After all, more than half of the existing elves are mages from the old era.

They had known for a long time that a new mage was born...but that didn't matter at all.

Since the lower city area was originally a phenomenon guided by the elves, so the islands with completely different living habits are so unified, then how could they not expect the appearance of these naturally uncoded people?

Just like the screening system for demons in each sky island.

If they really want to detect and prevent demons, they have a more appropriate and safer compound method...

In fact, it would be better to say that they are "raising demons." Anyway, even if the devil appears, it can't hurt them; even if it causes death or injury, it doesn't matter. Elves don't care so much about life and death.

To be precise, it is not about cultivating demons, but cultivating psykers... Demons are just another form of psykers.

——Why do different sky islands have completely different “themes”?

It is precisely because they want to distinguish completely different living environments. Only in this way can more than 10,000 completely different spiritual powers be born.

The birth of "psionic energy" was just a hundred years ago. If you think about it, it seems like it happened yesterday.

And the same goes for these new mages.

Although spells have completely different combinations and different possibilities... the dream world has a unique starting point.

They, the old mages, would naturally know what types of spells the young mages might have.

After all, it only takes a few years... No matter what path it is, where it can go, or what spells it can get, they all know it.

They came along these roads back then. The spells used by these new generations of mages are just things that have been eliminated by them.

Therefore.

The information from the lower city area is not relevant at all; the information from the mage and the dream world is even more so. Tianen Group has no reason to capture a mage alive.

According to what Tovatus knew, there was peace on Taoyuan Island - if the church wanted to send angels, they would naturally let them settle in. Just like the analysis of the godfather, angels will be driven away after a short time.

If they really need a mage to do something, they can just find someone of their own race to do it.

Because history is blocked, few people today still remember...the name "Thoth Psychic" actually appeared before the world's first psyker was born.

According to the research on Thoth's psychic powers, all possibilities of psychic powers have been exhausted, and there are only eighteen thousand kinds.

And if a "demon" is hatched from a certain spiritual energy, it will be solidified in the world.

This means that if they can accumulate the number of demons and illegal psykers that exist at the same time to eighteen thousand people... they will exhaust all possibilities of "psionic power".

——What will happen then?

This is the "problem" pursued by all elves. It is the "answer" expected by the "eighty-four people" who are burdened with fate.

In fact, the elves have already registered these more than 18,000 spiritual powers - the emergence of Xiacheng District was originally to speed up the process of this social experiment. With the help of "Xiacheng District", psychic energy has already been collected and sorted completely. Now we have entered the experimental cycle stage... This is the "most important value" that Xiacheng District has lost.

Of course the "godfather" couldn't have known about this.

He had tried his best to analyze it, but what he didn't know was just that he didn't know.

Tovatus felt that he might have learned the ultimate answer to the "question" that the elves were pursuing.

——He witnessed with his own eyes the existence of spiritual energy that "does not exist in this world".

"I really hope that one day he will complete the migration and learn the name of his spiritual power..."

Just thinking about it made Tovatus tremble with excitement.

But Tovatus would never give this answer to his own kind, because it was definitely not the answer they expected.

If one day I die.

Tovatus never wanted his memories to enter the minds of boring people through the mother tree. Once he reincarnates, the new "discordants" may not choose the same path as him.

After all, he has gone through two reincarnations, and it was not until this life that he found the value of his existence.

He would rather turn everything into a blank mask and hand it over to his godfather.

Turn yourself into the fuel of the stage to create new possibilities...possibilities that do not exist in the world.

Let me witness that miracle.

Let me witness the overturned tower——

"How careless, Godfather..."

The young boy with black hair looked at Quan Shu who was lying on the ground. A black curtain emerged from the void and slowly covered Quan Shu: "But I will help you finish it."

Although I couldn't protect him to repay the favor, helping him put an end to the situation can be regarded as "saving" him once.

"Although I don't know what they are arresting you for, it is to prevent people from the Tianen Group from habitually searching the memories of prisoners...

"——I'd better delete all the parts where Alice appears."

Tomorrow is the last chapter and extra chapter of this volume, so I will have a day off the day after tomorrow~

There were too many updates this month, and the volume before the 15th was already 180,000... Even though I had reserved three days of leave, it was no use, what a hard-working cat (chest out)
