Chapter 147 Mother-Son Thinking

Normally, all that awaits Beisen is ruthless abandonment.

Mark found that he still felt soft.

[Caribbean] was parked at the dock for two days and was ready to leave the port on the third day.

The art capital no longer had what Mark needed.

These days it's just useless invitations from nobles, either lunches or extravagant dances. Every noble or wealthy businessman wants to use his name to gain political capital or economic benefits.

This is very boring.

Mark left after the high priest of music, Alini, promised to help him transfer the money into Wright Imperial Bank every half month.

"My lord, what is our goal?" Captain Lane asked.

"What if we go to the endless ice ocean in the north?"

This is a very general goal. Renn did not directly object, he just said: "Then we need to carry out a large supply at the port of Austin in the Northland."

Helena added: "It is approaching winter, and there will be many icebergs and even large areas of floating ice in the ice ocean near the north. It is true that the Caribbean is an ocean-going ship, but if we want to go further north, then we will need a big Modifications to enhance its icebreaking capabilities. As well as modifications to the ship’s heating system.”

"how long?"

"There is an important base of the Mechanicus in the Port of Austin. However, even if we get the other party's full cooperation, it will take at least two months. However, after the modification is completed, it will hit the severe winter. If there is no rush, it will take at least two months. Let’s have a good time in spring.”

Mark was stunned for a moment: "Okay then!"

Sharpen your knife and never miss the woodcutter! Mark understands this.

Valkyrie's right arm was too far away, which made Mark a little worried.

After a moment of silence, Mini spoke in the soul circuit: "Don't worry about me yet. I don't think I will have the strength to fuse the Valkyrie's spiritual body so soon. Mark, you should do your own thing first."

What can Mark do?

He is now in the process of accumulation, such as reading a thousand books, which is something he cannot rush.

He smiled bitterly: "If you have to say what I'm missing, it's probably that my [Apocalypse Deck] still lacks a [War Knight]."

There have always been very few Knights of the Apocalypse walking in the world. This is something that is rare.

Mark simply didn’t want to think about it anymore.

"Then let's walk around."

On the surface, he looks like a rich man who has become successful and willful, driving around on a cruise ship.

In fact, Mr. Galaxy listens to the prayers in different places and attacks everywhere.

In order to prevent the cult from directly targeting him for revenge, Mark completely acted as a "good-hearted citizen" and asked Bison to help him disguise himself and went to various orthodox churches to report the crime.

One report will be accurate.

For two consecutive weeks, cultists along the entire northeastern coast of the empire were hacked to pieces.

Mark himself, as a prodigal son, studied for four hours every day and spent the rest of his time eating, drinking and having fun.

Just as it happened, Miss Anweina seemed to have foreseen something. She was very enthusiastic at the moment. As soon as she entered Mark's study, she burrowed under the desk and couldn't stop her.

Mark lived three weeks of happy and decadent life.

Just looking at the surface, it is not an exaggeration to say that he has a guest role as the Sin Priest.

Only Mark's closest comrades can clearly feel that his spiritual power is increasing day by day.

Yes, working hard secretly and then surprising everyone is what Mark is talking about now.

[Eye of Knowledge] After reading day and night, his reading of extraordinary books finally exceeded one thousand.

Just when he finished reading the last book, the "Encyclopedia of Low-level Occult Techniques" given to him by the God of Knowledge suddenly bloomed with powerful aura.

From this moment on, it is no longer a simple extraordinary book, but truly integrated with his soul.

It just hovered about 40 centimeters above Mark's right shoulder, hiding in the mysterious aura naturally released by Mark. Unless the other party has a strength that is far superior to Mark, its existence cannot be seen at all.

It is no longer a simple book. Mark can sense that there is a space inside it that is completely different from its appearance. Tens of thousands of secret arts are like fully armed soldiers waiting to go to the battlefield, waiting for the call of their master.

Even the title of this tome was changed to "The Book of Knowledge". There is an "Eye of Knowledge" open on the front cover and the back cover, scanning back and forth like a living creature, like a sentinel for Mark. Watch out for enemies.

Mark had no doubt that once an enemy appeared, the "Knowledge Book" would help him attack the enemy first before he, the master, could react.

His surging spiritual power shocked all the strong men on board.

When Ren arrived with people, he saw Conrad, Hank, and Helena standing outside the study door. It's just that magical vision that has turned the metal exterior wall of the study into the shape of a bookshelf.

Translucent books with mysterious characters written on the covers kept jumping on the bookshelf, as if they wanted to jump out.

"Master, have you been promoted?" Renn did not hide his joy.

Helena nodded: "Captain, please strictly abide by your post."

"Okay!" Without saying a word, Ren asked the Storm Team to disperse while he returned to the bridge.

Mark's promotion continues.

In his field of vision, everything was changing rapidly.

From the initial surprise, he has now become accustomed to the strange feeling of traveling through extraordinary translucent books.

But what appears at the end of the sea of ​​books is not just pure 'knowledge', but also the [destinies] he plundered. They are transformed into 'history books' in the form of experience, and exist in the most special form. In Mark's soul.

Mark realized that he had to deal with these 'Books of Destiny', otherwise not only would they be a waste, but when they broke out of the cage of fate he had set, the first thing to be swallowed up would be his soul.

Squinting his eyes, he tried to integrate these books, which felt very heavy.

This feeling is like a slight touch, and immediately a whole mountain hangs upside down above your head, pressing down firmly.

There was a faint neighing sound coming from inside the book, as well as wailing in extreme pain, as well as all kinds of violent roars, making people easily think of the various evil monsters and beasts participating in the eternal bloody battle in the bottomless abyss.

Mark finally understood that these powers from various cultists and demons were not powers that he could comprehend and fully master.

This does not prevent Mark from ‘exploiting’ them.

With a single thought, the sinful souls who were suppressed in the Hall of Valor simultaneously heard Mark’s majestic and majestic voice declare:

"What a failed sinner——"

"Your persistence is meaningless——"

"Surrender to [Fate]! This is the only value of your existence——"

The Sin Priests and the Twisted Creatures all came out of the Blood Moon Cards one after another. Their faith in the Demon God had been wiped out by countless hours of torture.

The irresistible dominance crushed their last persistence.

They knelt down and paid lofty worship to the existence that controlled their destiny!

At this moment, diagonally below the right side of the "Book of Knowledge", a 'colorful' black hand appeared out of thin air.

This is the hand of sin, the hand of great sin.

All the sinners whose fate has been robbed by Mark will be in the cage of the Hall of Valor, spitting out their vicious tongues day and night, providing the greatest spell power for Mark to use.

In the second step, Mark set his sights on the largest number of members of the Reincarnation Cult in the Hall of Valor. With their power, an [Eye of Reincarnation] opened above Mark's left shoulder that was much dimmer than the "Knowledge Book".

The third step is to condense the [Sword of Light] with the power of light as its core, and the [Blade of Night]. The ones who provided the power were the Bishop of Light and the Inquisitor who fell into Mark's hands by accident...

No one can see that behind the four strange objects, there is a thread of fate connecting them, all the way to Mark's left hand.

His hand is the [Hand of Destiny]!

Until this moment, Mark's condensation was temporarily completed.

In fact, there is also a [Gun of Apocalypse], but it lacks [War].

For some reason, Mark had a vague hunch that sooner or later he would create a 'Seven Stars Accompanying the Moon'

"Huh..." Mark took a long breath and began to collect his released spiritual power.

The bright aura gradually disappeared.

After hearing Mark's "come in", everyone close to him had an uncontrollable smile on his face.

"Mark, have you been successfully promoted?" Helena's voice was extremely passionate.

"Well, I was promoted to [Erudition]." Mark smiled faintly. He did not mention the improvement in destiny. After all, if it was just a small difference, it would probably be a hundred million points.

Even so, cheers still came.

"Congratulations my lord!"

"congratulations!"

One by one, everyone who could be named came to congratulate Mark.

As the saying goes, laymen watch the excitement, while insiders watch the door.

People who don't understand only know that the stronger their master is, the better. Only veteran strong men like Ren know how difficult the title of [Erudition] is.

In other sequences, the difficulty of promotion often rises relatively evenly.

Only the occult sequence is different. It is infinitely higher from the beginning. It is typically difficult first and then easy.

It is like a ship. If the lower deck is just a sampan, the superstructure cannot be higher at all.

If it were based on the hull of a dreadnought, there would be as many choices as the stars in the superstructure and weapons that could be loaded onto it.

Promoting to Sequence 6 is actually the most difficult. Once the power of other sequences is integrated later, it will form a power jump similar to that of a thousand miles.

Renn also couldn't have known that Mark, a freak, actually developed [Son-Mother Thinking] and [Parallel Thinking], two god-level talents of the Master, when he was promoted.

If you knew it, your jaw would probably drop.

Amidst the congratulations, Mark looked out the window at the endless sea.

"Hey, Destiny, don't you give me something to practice on?"

After hearing his call, Dice seemed to reply "Okay!"

The threads of fate began to be rewoven silently.
