During the time when various forces were rushing towards the library.
Han Dong and Pope were both immersed in the world of books, completely unaware of the external situation, even neglecting their own bodies.
he was joyfully recovering ancient corpses in the underground area,
and at the same time, this rotten and foul-smelling environment from ancient times was ideal for practicing the Scripture of the Corpse Eating Cult.
After gradually becoming familiar with the place, Eugene would visit the rooms where authors were imprisoned every day... none of the 1008 writing chambers were missed, just like a patrol officer inspecting on time.
If any of them died while writing, Eugene would clean them up in a short time.
This performance further solidified the library’s intention to permanently keep Eugene for work.
Unknowingly, half a month had passed.
In the mode of the main character and first person, Han Dong was not only getting used to but also increasingly obsessed with immersive reading in his personal stories.
Moreover, this immersive reading didn’t take as much time as imagined.
It felt as if a long life was lived following the story’s protagonist, but it only took 1-3 hours in actual reading time, highly efficient.
each book’s immersive experience could enhance the compatibility with the "Faceless Myth" by 0.1-0.5%... Continuing this way, when Han Dong finishes reading all the books here, there is a high chance that the compatibility would be maxed out.
Currently, about 1/5 of the books have been read, so there’s still plenty of time.
With little gap between, Han Dong picked up the next white book wrapped in worm skin.
This biography, almost tragic, tells of an obese and bloated worm born useless, deformed.
Subjected to various discriminations, witnessing the basest and darkest sides of the demon interactions.
Even for a long time, it was used as a meat source in some kind of meat factory, having a large chunk of flesh cut off regularly every day, while the newly grown outer skin was entirely peeled off.
With stimulation from consumption and regeneration, new worm skin and the same amount of flesh could be produced the next day.
Yet, enduring such pain every day, Han Dong had no intention to stop reading,
even becoming completely immersed in this character, not realizing this was just a book reading... voluntarily accepting this fate of being slaughtered, fully integrated into the protagonist’s extremely cowardly character.
At the end of the story,
it also concluded with a tragedy where the protagonist was still killed after exhausting all efforts.
Upon completing the reading...
Retaining the worm’s lifelong personal memories, the soul returned to the body.
Typically, an average person might feel severely depressed, with even the true self being affected, becoming extremely downcast.
Yet, Han Dong had no expression when closing the book, simply closing his eyes to savor the insights this story brought, as well as some of the unforgettable experiences.
"Hmm! Quite excellent... All this suffering was not in vain.
This tragic story, and the protagonist’s unique characteristics, increased the compatibility of the ’Faceless Myth’ by a full 0.5%.
In the future, I should select more protagonists with characters very different from my own for a completely different disguise experience... Speaking of which, this worm was indeed too timid.
This kind of tragic story has no market, let’s move on to the next book."
Just as Han Dong was about to pick the next book.
His mind trembled, suddenly looking up.
It was the first time in half a month that he felt the ’ripple’ outside the library, previously it had been completely tranquil.
Moreover, the interruption during reading was more from Han Dong’s subjective willingness.
His eyes widened, even opening the Real Demon Eye, but due to the library’s structural limitations... even the Real Demon Eye was weakened by the layers of soul partitioning walls.
When he peered into the library room where the ’ripple’ emanated, a hazy astral phenomenon unfolded before his eyes.
He also vaguely captured the initial birth aura of a ’King’.
Han Dong smiled genuinely, slightly shook his head.
"Pope, this guy managed to achieve the most challenging breakthrough ahead of everyone... Seriously!
Well then, when we leave the library, our journey to seek the remaining remnant pages will be smoother, and the time greatly shortened."
Holding titles like "Son of Void" and the "youngest professor at Mi University", and privately acknowledged by many demons as the ’bastard son of the Void Lord’.
Regardless of potential, strength, or wisdom, he stood at the pinnacle, undoubtedly ranked first among original entities in the past.
Pope, who had already transcended the Mythic Body, gained unprecedented insights when he encountered the ’Fate Event (Ladybug Game)’, making his mythical path extraordinarily smooth.
In recent years, he advanced rapidly.
Before arriving at the Shattered Dimension, he was already at the "Mythical Peak".
Currently, having accessed the legendary number one library, heading to the astronomy reading room that aligned with his attributes,
he examined each masterpiece with the perspective of an ’audience’, observing world evolutions and minute material changes from a bystander’s vantage.
Unbeknownst to him...
The thin film covering his Mythic Body had been broken through.
The "Mythical Scroll" originally existing in the plane had fully unfolded during reading, merging with the astronomical library room, forming a unique [Star River King Domain] belonging solely to Pope.
Pope had officially stepped into the realm of the ’King’.
Of course, due to the absence of a throne, he is currently in the "Pseudo-King" category.
Even so, a brilliant beam of light shot upwards through the ’skylight structure’ of the astronomy room, stabilizing the dimensional spaces around the library, granting them proper spacetime rules.
In the distant world of S-01,
on the surface of a supermassive planet defying physics,
this planet featured almost every climate and topographical trait found throughout the universe, also home to representative forbidden areas.
Here, it was jointly crafted by several Old Kings as the [Element Star], akin to a colossal talent selection game zone.
Primarily used for the "Element Competition", conducted once every decade.
In the central plains of the planet, stood a monument of significant meaning.
Crafted from the rare "throne original stone"... referred to here as the "Element Stele", used to engrave the names of contemporary elements.
A Kabbalah Tree of Life was engraved on the stele’s surface, branching into ten paths, from top to bottom respectively:
1. Crown (Kether, Crown)
2. Wisdom (Chhokmah, Wisdom)
3. Understanding (Binah, Understanding)
4. Love (Chesed/Gedulah, Love)
5. Severity (Geburah, Severity)
6. Beauty (Tiphareth, Beauty)
7. Victory (Netsah, Victory)
8. Splendor (Hod, Splendor) Googlᴇ search novelFɪre.net
9. Foundation (Yesod, Foundation)
10. Kingdom (Malkuth, Kingdom)
Currently, ranked second.
Adjacent to ’Wisdom’s name, [Pope Menda] was undergoing transformation, the dot in his name gradually evolving into a black hole, slowly enveloping the second branch completely.
Mr. Eugene, who was preparing to transition various tasks with the Black Tower, felt something at that moment.
Without much change in expression, he just slightly paused in his actions.
It seemed as if everything was ’under observation’.
