Hidden Corner

 Chapter 610 610 Truth 2

Soon, in the next few days, the surrounding noble territories announced their surrender and merged into the Okla Territory.

Some speculators and wandering knights who had committed crimes came to seek refuge one after another. After hearing about Baron Carlos's vicious reputation, they thought this was their paradise.

It is a pity that all the subsequent defectors were hanged by Li Chengyi at will after being interrogated and the evidence of their crimes was clear.

Of course, many of the knowledge, skills and past experiences they mastered before they died were also interrogated by Li Chengyi and turned into his own assets.

Following Li Chengyi's unscrupulous expansion, in just two months, the black deer flag of the Okla Territory filled the entire eastern part of the Sola Empire, occupying nearly one-third of the empire's territory.

At this time, the White Tower and the Knowledge Tower were able to unite the royal family, assembled an army of ten thousand people, and officially raised the banner to suppress Carlos.

 The cumbersome communication among the nobles made it extremely inefficient even if they joined forces.

At this time, Li Chengyi had arrived at the Mage City where the White Tower belonged. Following him were more than thirty new barbarian warriors who were subdued by him, and more than a hundred human soldiers who were forcibly gathered.

Standing on the snow outside the city, Li Chengyi looked at the snow-white tower in the city that was more than a hundred stories high.

 The higher you go up, all knowledge will have similar parts, and many truths are actually repetitive and similar in nature.

 “Mida!” Obensi shouted in a low voice.

Without waiting for Obonxi's shouting, it turned to escape like a fled.

This white dragon has blood-red eyes and has no intelligence at all. It is just a powerful beast.

“You are willing to settle the previous grudges with Baron Carlos and resolve the misunderstanding?” Obensi didn’t care that Master Mida’s assistants and subordinates died at the hands of Carlos.

 It becomes increasingly difficult to obtain information that is completely unfamiliar to you.

 Ouch! !

White Dragon's scales instantly stood up, like a bird with exploding feathers, and its huge body leaned back crazily.

“Everyone in the world has said that you came here for your own ambition, but now I see you.” Obensi stood up from the back of the white dragon, his body turned into an arc of lightning, and he fell to the ground and regained his human form.

After weighing the cost of solving Carlos, the royal family decided to follow Obensi's advice. Since Carlos was pursuing knowledge, give him knowledge.

 The knowledge system of all things follows a pyramid structure, with basic knowledge at the bottom accounting for the majority.

"certainly."

 “I am here to pursue knowledge.” Li Chengyi replied sincerely.

 Heavy snow was falling, and the moment he raised his hand, he was about to give the order to attack the city.

　　His!

The Sola royal family does not care whether Tislan or Carlos rules the east. As long as the eastern border territories can continue to be stabilized, everything will not be a problem.

‘Just the knowledge gained from interrogating those White Tower mages has increased the flame of my sword furnace by one tenth. I really don’t know how far the flame can reach if I can obtain all the knowledge in the White Tower! ? ’

The glow that belongs to magic represents the foundation of the Sora Empire, the first White Tower mage—Obensi Tiraman.

At this time, the white dragon landed on the ground, splashing a large amount of snow powder, lowered its head and roared at Li Chengyi.

 He only cares about ending the turmoil quickly.

The bloodline aura belonging to the Dark Dragon God is faintly released.

What made him feel threatened at this time, combined with the white dragon he was riding, was that there was no doubt that this person was the strongest mage in the empire, Obensi Tilaman.

The top of the tower shines with eternal silver light.

Phew!

A huge white shadow flew out from the silver light at the top of the white tower and quickly approached here.

 “Master Mingjian.” Li Chengyi smiled.

"If you really only want knowledge, then the White Tower Library is open to you. Will you still go to war against the Mage City?"

 So far, Li Chengyi has discovered that many skills and knowledge systems in this world have begun to overlap.

Feeling the light of flames that had occupied four-tenths of the Yuan Shen Sword Palace, Li Chengyi looked at the White Tower like a glutton looking at a plate of supreme delicacies.

 “Carlos the Stag, why have you come?”

Soon, the gate of the White Tower opened at the rear, and a group of White Tower mages quickly rushed out on horseback.

The smile on Li Chengyi's face gradually faded, and for the first time, he felt a powerful threat from the other party that could not be ignored.

 He ignored the fleeing Bai Long, but stared at Li Chengyi with cold eyes.

"Of course not. I love peace and hate senseless killing." Li Chengyi replied solemnly.

 “Are you willing to make a covenant?”

The only ninth-level mage in the entire Sola Empire, and the strongest mage who has signed a war contract with the Dragon Clan.

 One of the people taking the lead was the White Tower mage Mida who had previously sent an owl to investigate Li Chengyi.

He held a short staff made of gold and looked down at Li Chengyi.

 “What a powerful unknown dragon blood!” Obenxi recognized the breath just now. He also seems to understand the root cause of why the other party is so powerful.

Sitting on the back of the white dragon is a bald-headed, white-bearded mage with eyes burning with silver flames.

 “There is no ambition in your eyes, only exploration.”

Li Chengyi raised his head, and a deep darkness mixed with countless dark golden threads flashed in his eyes.

That giant shadow has a slender snake neck, white scales, and wide wings. It is impressively an elegant white dragon with a body length of more than ten meters.

 So there was this time of negotiations under the city.

"I"

Master Mida looked ugly, but he couldn't refuse at all.

 He was silent for a moment and finally nodded.

"willing!"

"According to the regulations on the size of the territory, Oklahoma Territory has reached the viscount level, and Baron Carlos is automatically promoted to Viscount. As for the White Tower, I can sign a knowledge sharing exchange agreement with Oklahoma Territory on behalf of the White Tower." Seeing this, Obensi finally revealed a hint Smile.

He waved his hand a little, and countless snowflakes swirled and gathered in the air, quickly condensing into a white sheet of ice and snow. Lines of agreement text automatically appeared on the paper, and then the White Tower's seal and his name were signed.

 The paper then flew towards Li Chengyi and floated in front of him.

Li Chengyi read all the text carefully, nodded with satisfaction, reached out and pressed his fingerprints on it.

 Hum.

 The agreement suddenly decomposed and disappeared into snowflakes.

 Somewhere, Li Chengyi felt that the world seemed to be connected to him in some way.

"What principle is this contract based on!?" His eyes suddenly lit up.

"This is a natural contract. A great agreement established under the witness of the natural world. As a ninth-level mage, I can only sign three contracts of destiny in my life." Obensi said in a deep voice.

“It’s amazing. Can I get this part of the knowledge?” Li Chengyi’s eyes shone with anticipation.

Looking at such pure expectation and curiosity, Obensi finally believed that the other party was really just here to pursue knowledge.

 Whatever the war kills, it is just for the flow of knowledge.

 “Of course!” He nodded seriously.

 As an equally pure scholar and a pure mage at the peak, he has a very favorable impression of such people.

"When can I see this part of the information? Can I see it now?" Li Chengyi said quickly.

"Now?" Obensi was stunned. Seeing the other party's unabashed curiosity, his originally cold face gradually softened.

"certainly!"

 The two of them quickly came together, entered the Mage City together, and headed to the White Tower.

The generals of the Okla army who were left behind looked at each other and the garrison at the top of the mage city for several hours. What they finally waited for was a notice of armistice and withdrawal from their lords.

So, this vigorous Bucks Rebellion, which lasted only a few months, ended in a speechless way.

As the supreme leader, the undefeated Carlos publicly announced that he would join the White Tower, become a special advisor to the Mage City, and directly stationed in the White Tower for academic exchanges.

 This exchange lasted two years.

   *

   *

   *

 Two years later.

The top floor of the White Tower.

Obensi and Li Chengyi stood side by side, looking at the distant sky from the terrace on the top of the tower.

The bright silver light shone, danced and burned behind the two people, illuminating their faces somewhat darkly.

 “Do you feel it?” Obensi asked in a low voice.

 “Yes.” Li Chengyi on the side nodded calmly. "The roots of the natural contract, I feel it"

He does not have the qualifications to be a mage, but his consciousness is far stronger than that of an ordinary mage. After mastering the method, he can easily follow the natural agreement that binds him, extend it, and feel the natural agreement palace located somewhere in the dark.

“The cornerstone of the world constrains all things and allows them to operate in a flow cycle according to the established scope and framework. But this cycle is not perfect.” Obensi sighed.

“There is nothing perfect in the world, so in order to make up for it, the world naturally gave birth to the Hall of Agreement.” He continued, “This is to allow successors to fill in the loopholes that shake the foundation.”

 “That’s it. I really. really saw it.”

Li Chengyi closed his eyes, and his consciousness followed the extended link and entered the dark hall located in the void.

 In the hall, the walls are covered with various agreements between different lives.

Over the past two years, Li Chengyi has been studying and accumulating in Baita day and night, and has absorbed the entire system and accumulation of Baita.

 The flames in his Soul Sword Palace have spread to seven-tenths. His physical fitness has also improved to nineteen times that of Milton.

 But at this point, no matter how he absorbed new knowledge, he could not go any further.

  As if the rest of the new knowledge is more of a repetition.

 To ignite the divine fire, his current breadth of accumulation is enough, but perhaps it lacks depth.

At this time, after finding his way into the Hall of Agreement, the flames of his sword furnace suddenly surged.

 Finally there is a new breakthrough, although this breakthrough is small.

“The world, nature, what else exists apart from the laws that govern the movement of all things? Why do I still feel unable to understand it even though I have learned enough knowledge?”

Li Chengyi couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this.

“Carlos, your talent is the only one I have ever seen in my life. If you have the talent of a mage, you may become a more powerful peak mage than me. But...” Obenxi said, “You still have a fatal flaw.”

"What?"

In the past two years, due to a large number of exchanges, the two gradually developed a cooperative relationship similar to Taoist friends.

Obensi also has an extremely indifferent temperament and only likes to pursue truth and knowledge. So the relationship between the two at this time is much better than before.

 “It’s an experience.” Obensi smiled.

"Books are just records. You can learn the feelings and experiences extracted from them, but those are not your real personal feelings. Once they are recorded, they are no longer complete. What you really lack now is not books, but practice ”

 “Practice.” Li Chengyi’s mind was like a flash of lightning.

Yes.

Book knowledge is just a way and a carrier to record all things, but as long as it is recorded, there will inevitably be distortion and information loss.

 Only by feeling and perceiving it yourself can you obtain all the information perfectly and without loss.

At this moment, Li Chengyi suddenly understood the root cause of why he only had seven out of ten flames until now.

 “Go on, if you want to explore the reality of the world, you have to try it yourself.”
