Chapter 146 Ignorant Pig
The above is the preface of "Introduction to the Invisible Art·Volume I". After reading this long paragraph, Watson couldn't help but frown.
Although he had heard of Si Chen's power many times... Dr. Long of the Anti-Suppression Bureau, Elson of the Flash Blade Cult... He learned from different people that the history of the awakening world was actually controlled by Si Chen.
But until this moment when he read the text in the book, he had a clearer understanding of Si Chen's control over the world.
Watson used to think that Si Chen was just living behind the scenes, always monitoring the development of the world. Once they found any signs of abnormality and uncontrollability, they would immediately send out their secret followers to eliminate the uncontrolled abnormalities.
But he never thought that even the development of modern science was under the control of Si Chen!
After all, the old man mentioned in the preface of the book... Even though the author did not write the other party's name directly, the discussion about gravity and light, about those well-known works... Watson can almost conclude that the old man who talked with the author is the Justice of the Peace who is known as the 'Father of Modern Physics'!
It turns out that the Si Chens are not revising and controlling the existing history, but directly starting from the source, guiding and shaping the development of history, so that mankind will always move forward along the road paved by the Si Chens... Human beings are like animals kept in cages by Si Chens.
It's just that I don't know how fat this pig in civilized society will be raised before it will be slaughtered.
But this is obviously something Watson doesn't need to worry about, he turned to the next page.
[The dialogue in the preface is what I extracted from John Walker's burial diary. Given the existence of that person mentioned in the text and the content of the dialogue is too shocking, the authenticity of the diary is questionable. I strongly suspect that this is just John Walker's nonsense after being drunk. The wet marks on the diary can prove that what I said is true. ]
[But I still pasted this very suspicious dialogue in the preface of this book. I want to warn every apprentice of the invisible art that you should know that studying the invisible art is studying all histories. ]
[We must look at every piece of history with a skeptical attitude, dig out the mottled truth hidden under history, and search for the hidden traces left by Si Chen in the world. ]
[This is the source of our power. ]
[Next, I will introduce to all the apprentices of the invisible art the real ruler of the world we live in - Si Chen (Hours)]
[Si Chen, although it is called the god of time, in fact, they not only control time, but also control the laws of nature. The following are the characteristics of the 24-hour Hours and their followers. 】
【Midnight 0:00, Moth/Striped King, the god who flaps his wings in the skull. 】【The horror of the Moth followers is not described in detail, readers just need to stay away from them. This group of weird guys may be your companions in the last second, or they may become your enemies in the next second. They have always been tirelessly practicing fraud to make you forget.】
【At 1:00 in the morning, the Door in the Eye/Night Watcher, the god who guides the way forward. 】【The followers of the Door in the Eye are mostly merciless and rational. They may be scholars, mathematicians, or prophet. Most of them have profound knowledge. They are still good companions... provided that you have the same goal. 】
………………
After Watson browsed through the corresponding rules and powers of the 24 Hours, he finally had a clearer understanding of the secret world. He now knows the names of the Hours and the general characteristics of the followers of various Hours, which may help him establish a secret organization in the future.
He continued to flip to the next page.
[The invisible art is actually a general term for the power of secret transmission and the power of Si Chen. ]
[Through specific methods such as rituals, blessings, and prayers, one can contact the sexual aspects in the soul and body, and pray to Si Chen in the wandering constellation to gain knowledge, understand the secret truth, or influence reality. ]
[Because the backward sensory organs of mortals cannot capture the traces of these supernatural powers, they are called invisible arts. ]
[It is said that in ancient times, when this heavy history had not yet withered, the power of the secret master could easily affect reality and interfere with the laws of physics at will. Even mountains and rivers had to submit to the power of the secret master. 】
【The ocean will also be divided by the will of the Initiator, the withered plants will also be revived by the encouragement of the Heart, the rotten and dry soldiers will also fight again under the command of the Winter, thousands of troops will not be able to stop the Blade, the mortals of the entire city will be immersed in the illusion of the Lantern, and the anger of the Caster is enough to burn a city of 20,000 people to ashes...】
【It was an era when humans and gods coexisted, and those legendary gods were the incarnations of Sichen, and those half-human and half-god heroes were Sichen's followers. 】
【Now the power has withered, the Secret can no longer affect reality, and the glory of the past has faded. 】
【Even the Lantern Master who stepped through the Stag Gate can no longer lead people to dreams at will. 】
【Even the hard Master of Casting can hardly reach the continuous bombardment of artillery. 】
【Even the sharp Master of Blade can't cut the hard steel plate with his bare hands. 】
【Even if one knows the immortality of winter, one cannot easily revive the dead. 】
【Even if one knows the immortality of the heart, one cannot exceed the lifespan limit of 300 years. 】
【Even a knowledgeable person like a cup can no longer give birth to a distorted species. 】
【Even a knowledgeable person like a moth can not forget the lie of being born as a human. 】
【Not to mention that the turbid color of the virtual world has begun to permeate the waking world with the invasion of worms. Taboo knowledge is no longer safe. Mortals will inadvertently fall into the abyss of madness. Uncontrolled sexuality is distorted like a weird beast, making distorted norms wreak havoc on the world. 】
【My good friend Christopher Iliopoli once said that today's invisible art is as low-profit as knotting and as immoral as smuggling cigarettes. Every apprentice of the invisible art is taking the risk of gambling, betting that he will not lose control or distort, but the chance of winning is even smaller than the chance of winning the roulette wheel. 】
【But in fact, I don't completely agree with him. 】
【Although the invisible art is dangerous, it is the only way we can understand the world of noon. 】
【But the Invisible Art does not force you to do it. Si Chen is happy to see mortals struggling to give up. 】
【If you are willing to abandon the practice of the Invisible Art and give up the pursuit of the truth of history, ignorance will drown you again like a surging tide, you will forget everything, and all the secrets you knew in the past will become a fleeting memory. 】
【So, this apprentice of the Invisible Art, are you willing to be an ignorant pig, or a rational madman? 】
