Chapter 283 "Guardian"

The equatorial dawn and dusk are very short. When Lin An returned to the Banshi tribe, the sun was already high in the sky.

The battlefield changed rapidly. In a flash, he had no time to stop the red dragon. The demon was eager to burn the body and soul of the countess.

Lin An only rescued a half-burned impact stick. The rest, including the items containing the word "Lantern Goddess", turned into dust with the ashes of the book pages.

Fortunately, her entry was in hand anyway.

[Name]: Great Grimoire, Red Dragon, Gospel of Satan, Grimoire of Thebes Honorius, Book of the Mage Abramelin, Magical Treatise of Solomon

[Rating]: Mythology C

[Radiation Value]: 31.5%

[Pollution Level]: 68.6%

[Medium]: War Emperor

[Mysterious Source]: Thebes Honorius analyzed the demons with human wisdom, deciphered the rituals of summoning and signing contracts with them, as well as the real names of high and low demons, and ranked them according to the level of hell.

The contract is a means to ensure the service of the demons. If the user cannot master the Kabbalah Contract Triangle Array and the swinging method of the impact rod, do not try to summon high-level demons.

Consume "War Emperor" x2, "Seeker of Knowledge" x1, "God of Truth" x1, and use the ability of the Great Grimoire [Hand of Luciferge Rovercar].

[Individual Introduction]: When she was a child, she read that in the feudal era, nobles sent their offspring to universities, thus giving this institution a noble status, but now it is the other way around: universities give a person a noble status.

Her father told her that when a democratic institution takes the lead, it can define every word.

Define a thief, then define the owner; define a crime, then make a law.

Consume "War Emperor" x2, "God of Truth" x1, "Chief Judge" x1, and use the ability of the Great Magic Book [repeat Nebiros' words].

Green data floated in front of Lin An, showing the final state of the Countess.

She increased the radiation value by slaughtering tribesmen, controlling puppets, and implanting split thoughts, but the value stopped changing after reaching 31.5%.

Perhaps this is the approximate upper limit of the chakra.

Lin An shook his head regretfully as his eyes swept over the two tempting "War Emperor" items.

The entries included in the system are the summoning and contract rituals in the first volume of the "Great Magic Codex", but the impact rods that draw demonic texts, the Mortier stones that form the contract triangle array, and the methods of making mass candles are all in the second volume "The Holy of Holies".

Without the protection of the contract triangle array, Lin An dare not use these life-threatening entries at will.

The fate of the Countess and Kevin clearly told him that trading with demons requires caution and caution, and a little carelessness will lead to eternal damnation.

However, Lin An is not worried that the "Great Magic Codex" entries will be covered in dust. It is a mythical "War Emperor". Even if it cannot be used, the "Edit" function can be added, which is a good hand for expanding the illustrations.

I don't know who the new mysterious person of the spotted lion tribe is. If it is not Misulu, I will try to use it on him. Lin An thought, he is almost ready, although if conditions permit, I hope he can become a mythical level in one fell swoop.

Secondly, in addition to the original "Great Magic Codex" held by the Countess, this famous magic book also has French and Latin printed versions "The Great Red Dragon".

The popular version records the second volume of the Great Magic Codex, The Holy of Holies and The Secret of Magical Art, which just happens to make up for the entries that Lin An didn't get.

The Great Red Dragon is not a rare entry. The huge Xizhou is full of talents, so Lin An doesn't worry about not finding anyone.

After trying it, the shock rod can be collected into the [Sage's Stone].

Due to the characteristics of the Sage's Stone to remove impurities and extract pure concepts, the shock rod gradually turns red and enters the first stage of alchemy. The burnt area slowly recovers.

In the future, as long as you get the method of refining Mass Candles and Motir Stones, you can safely use the two entries of the Great Magic Codex.

Lin An's eyes moved to the floating code.

The data of the Mysterious Encyclopedia is quite bad. Due to the long-term excessive use of [The Blessing of the Original Incarnation], the pollution level of the system has exceeded 25%.

If Lin An hadn't raised the time rating to A, this value would have soared to more than 30.

Unlike last time, when the system displayed garbled characters, gibberish, and forced to shut down and hibernate as soon as the pollution value increased, Lin An still found that its font had undergone subtle changes.

Like the square, cold, and clear numbers and letters in The Matrix, there is a tendency to develop towards handwriting.

The green color, which is quite mechanical and technological, has also faded a lot, and instead, the background that should have been transparent is covered with a layer of light white, as if it is gold-plated text on parchment.

Is it true that the higher the pollution level, the more the system looks like a real "ancient book"?

Thinking of the Countess whose upper body was deformed into a book, Lin An fell into deep thought.

Speaking of which, the higher the pollution value, the more the appearance of the mysterious person resembles their mysterious prototype itself, which increases their combat power and energy.

When the radiation value reaches the upper limit of the chakra, some mysterious people will forcibly increase the pollution value in order to fight against powerful enemies.

At this point, the secret truth of why the system has self-awareness has been revealed, and Lin An also knows that unlike other mysterious people, its pollution level will not affect his thinking.

So, should we just take advantage of the Duke's absence to increase the pollution value all the way and unlock the main body of the "Mysterious Encyclopedia"?

After all, Lin An still doesn't know what the real name of the system is.

And after the pollution value rises, there may be more unexpected changes...

Lin An recorded his thoughts in his heart and turned to the set of data he cared about most.

[Letter Name]: Forest Ranger, Ghost of Dietri City, Karenga Mpungu, Ancestral Lion Spirit

[Position]: Guardian

[Fusion Process]: 0.8%

[Measurement Value]: 43.1

[Deviation Value]: 75.5%

After killing the Countess and Kevin in succession, some people in the rain forest who knew his name were also provoked by the devil and died. As expected, Lin An's fusion process and measurement value decreased.

It doesn't matter. As long as he contacts more noble families, he believes that the value will increase soon.

It seems that I and the [Red Poppy Chamber of Commerce] will be enemies to the death... Lin An's eyes were dim, and he thought again, no matter what I do, my sensitive identity is destined to make me the center of the "Comos" war.

But he was not very scared, but a little interested.

If the conservative family fails, when the orbits of the two planets overlap in two years, Lin An will become an interstellar channel and float forever in the universe.

If the conservative family succeeds, although Lin An does not have to die, the radiation of "Comos" will disappear forever in about five or six years, and the world will return to its original track.

Anyway, time is limited anyway. Instead of staying in the rainforest and passively waiting for his father's contact, Lin An has always wanted to take the initiative to join the center of the world's power vortex and witness more mysterious prototypes from different cultures.

For example, now he is already curious about the true identity of the president of the Red Poppy Merchants.

After the dust settles, I need to find time to contact Atiksha. Lin An sorted out his thoughts.

Unfortunately, the red dragon burned the countess to ashes without explanation, leaving no more energy from the "pre-civilization" Mu Continent, so Lin An has to use communication equipment sparingly.

In addition, Lin An found that the "meme" in his "personality" column was replaced by the word "guardian god", and the priority of the letter name of [Forest Ranger] was also raised to that of [Ghost].

Person, the position of the godhood combined with the letter name.

The Duke explained to him the definition of different persons. In simple terms, it is how the general public views the mysterious person holding the letter name, and from their perspective, the faith given to the letter name, which will determine the entity and function of the mysterious person.

The person will determine the concept of "lantern goddess" obtained by the mysterious person. For example, the owner of "Rose Ascension", the owner of the Red Poppy Chamber of Commerce, is very likely to have a person similar to "saint" or "God's spokesperson".

During the discussion, the Duke inadvertently mentioned that in the civilization of Titan, the highest person is called "Creator God", which may give the mysterious person the two basic concepts of "creation" and "destruction", allowing them to master the power to destroy the world or give new life.

Seeing Lin An's shock, the Duke smiled and told him that this was just the conclusion inferred by the family.

In the five thousand years since Anxius arrived, no one has ever reached this position.

From "meme" to "guardian god", combined with the "indirect miracle" he mastered not long ago, Lin An felt that his current position was similar to "Tudigong", a kind of regional guardian god.

Well, at least it's not a hot topic on the Internet. I don't know what strange words that position will get.

The silence in my ears did not last long. A noisy noise came from below. Lin An felt the trajectory of the energy movement of "Komers" and couldn't help but take a look.

Tudigong is here, who is making a fuss?

"You are really crazy!"

A rough male voice shouted.

"You killed the ancestor! In this way, how can our tribe gain a foothold in the [Ancestral Totem]? How can we curry favor with the people of the Tiger Fish Tribe? Idiot, are you going to cut off our supplies!"

"You are not only stupid, but also blind! Have you forgotten how he just slaughtered the tribe members? I don't want to kill him! But I don't want you to be killed by him even more!"

"Yes, the ancestor was so terrifying at that time..."

"Then you can't kill him! He gathers the wisdom of the ancestors, and he controls the powerful Dawa. If we don't worship him, we will be cursed!"

"Wait! I also got Dawa, just when he swung the butcher knife at the tribe members!" This is a girl The voice was familiar, "Maybe the ancestors abandoned the crazy him and chose me!"

The quarreling party was silent for a while, and said unconvincedly: "How can there be two ancestral spirits in a tribe at the same time."

"There are many ancestral spirits in the spotted lion tribe." The girl did not show any weakness, "This is the miracle performed by [Forest Ranger] Karenga Mpungu."

"You don't believe the nonsense in the rain forest, do you? The ancestral spirits told us that the guy is a four-eyed ladybug who has accomplished nothing except cheating." The man rolled his eyes, "Those stories are just his lies.

"Hehe, Karenga Mpungu may have been cooked and eaten by the people of the spotted lion tribe now."

"He is so arrogant, maybe he has been shot to death by the tiger fish tribe!"

"Maybe he is standing behind you."

A strange voice sounded, and the quarreling tribesmen turned pale with fear, and saw a young man with black hair and black eyes standing in the shadow at some point, looking at them expressionlessly.

"Forest Ranger! "The girl's eyes lit up, "It's you!"

"Are you the forest ranger?"

The tribesman took a few trembling steps back and almost fell to the ground. He never expected that his simple nonsense would be heard by himself.

He only dared to bully his own small clan members. Facing the real ancestral spirit, he had no intention of resisting at all!

Under the shocked and frightened gazes of all the tribesmen, Lin An nodded slowly.

"Yes, I have fulfilled the instructions of Nzambi Mpungu, the sun and the moon, and protected the world from wizards and monsters from the underworld."

The girl took a deep breath and explained to everyone: "The ranger killed the strange thing in the sky."

"What's in the sky?"

"Don't you think our mood just now is abnormal?"

"That's true..."

Hearing the girl's words, some people recalled that inexplicable war, as if for a moment, strange emotional outbursts and indiscriminate hatred filled their hearts, leading them to fight.

People like to find excuses for irreparable evil deeds. After listening to the girl's explanation, these tribesmen suddenly realized.

It turns out that the monster controlled them!

When their discussion was over, Lin An spoke up again.

"Bantu people, let me tell you. More ancestors are coming, ghosts coming across the Karenga Line to your world, good and evil, high and low! This is a fascinating and mysterious time."

"Ah, forest ranger! Great guardian of Bantu, how should we survive in this era?" the respected elder of the tribe asked humbly.

"Remember, wherever the mystical and the secular are connected, my breath can be seen everywhere."

After saying the riddle-like words, Lin An turned around and walked towards the rain forest.

"Also, the [Ancestral Spirit Totem] no longer exists, and now only the [World Tree] remains in the entire rain forest."

"World Tree...?"

Everyone murmured in confusion, watching his back being swallowed up by the green ferns, dumbfounded and confused.

The murmuring man collapsed to the ground, clutching his heart that was beating wildly. Only a vague premonition came to the girl's mind.

"We should follow him." The Great Elder expressed what she was thinking. "There are more and more monsters in Hades. Now it seems that only the [Forest Guard] can protect us from evil."

"I will go to the Spotted Lion Tribe to negotiate next week." The chief continued.

"Can you take me with you?" the girl said expectantly. (End of chapter)
