Chapter 40 Knowledge is Power

That night, Zhujue did not go anywhere else, but chose to live in the tower.

He had many problems, and his mind seemed to be loaded with a book "Hundred Thousand Whys".

Fortunately, Atal, who drank two cans of moonlight wine, was also quite talkative and no longer shy away from certain topics, which gave Zhu Jue a great opportunity.

Because the tower is too stuffy, the three-story holy temple was destroyed by monsters, so the two of them finally climbed a ring platform on the top of the tower.

There is the spire of the tower in the middle and a small platform around it with an outer edge.

The moon is bright and the stars are sparse, and the night wind is cool.

One person moved a rattan chair and lay down on the left and right sides of the spire of the tower, unable to see each other's faces, which is a chat between "people nearby" in another sense.

"What is the so-called spiritual power or soul ability?"

Holding the dark blue pearls I just obtained, Zhu Jue could feel his body, stretched out a finger to tick the creeping vine leaves next to him, watching them frozen.

Zhu Jue knew how to use this ability, but he didn't know why he could use it like this, or how far he could use it.

This is like learning to drive. If Zhujue's existing abilities are compared to a car, everyone knows to step on the accelerator and turn the steering wheel, but for those beginners, it is limited to this. He doesn't understand how to turn, reverse, turn on the indicator light, and how to maximize the performance of the car.

Five years later, Zhu Jue still draws his sword to slash in the face of battle. It’s not that this method is very weak, after all, Zhu Jue’s physical strength is indeed very strong.

I just recalled the colorful light in the dark night, the terrifying meat ball in the valley, the indescribable existence that appeared in the sky at that time, the Shuges in the ice field, and even the scavenger who is now in control of himself.

Power is meaningless to these beings. No matter how fast Zhu Jue swung his sword or how strong his strength, could he cut off light or those flesh balls that did not have a fixed body at all?

That's not something on the same dimension!

If you want to defeat them, you can only rely on special forces, such as the super magnetic device developed by the Monster Investigation Bureau for Star Color and more than a dozen refrigerators placed against the scavenger.

However, Zhu Jue has used the most so far, perception and his own control over ice and snow.

Perception is a reconnaissance ability, and there is no good change for the time being, but Zhu Jue can do now only summon blizzards and freeze certain items like a refrigerator, and then it is gone.

Not to mention that there are currently some weak controls of wind elements. Regarding this ability, Zhu Jue is often just used to slow down the impact of his whereabouts.

They undoubtedly all have extremely strong potential, but they were helplessly abandoned by Zhu Jue because he didn't know how to use them better.

Going back to the above metaphor, it is bluntly said: the supercar worth millions and the sedan worth tens of thousands on the roadside are no different from Zhu Jue today, because in his eyes they are all an iron rack with four wheels...

In the real world, Zhu Jue has not found anyone else to answer these questions. Now that he has arrived in the dream world, he feels that he has to find a way to figure out these things.

"Knowledge is power."

Just as Zhu Jue fell into a state of self-examination and thinking, Atal's voice, as if he was in a dream, came from the other side.

"Hey, I'm not discussing philosophical issues with you or some famous quotes. Who doesn't know that knowledge is power?"

Zhu Jue, who was upset at Atal's sudden interruption, said while holding the wind chime's face. Zhu Jue found that after drinking water soaked in the amber stone, his originally dark golden eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of amber brilliance, so he pinched the soft flesh between its neck and asked softly,

"Is there any change in the body?"

Oh ~

Fengling called out proudly, raised his claws and stretched out. The sharp white nails of the month were like a layer of amber nail polish. Then he slapped them into the stone wall next to them, which was almost as good as pressing into a piece of soft tofu.

"You know, but do you really understand that humans rely on a strong body to defeat beasts?"

The Great Elder Atal on the other side did not notice that the wind chime was tearing down his home, and said to himself,

"No, humans rely on knowledge, swords and magic, chariots and castles... They are just extensions of knowledge, and the power you are pursuing actually exists in the book."

"What book?"

Zhu Jue naturally would not naively think that Atal wanted to become a scholar.

"Naturally, books containing mysterious powers, and we have to admit that humans are always the best creatures to learn... How do you think those books come from? Human compilation? No, they are just copyists. Indeed, the indescribable existences impart their knowledge to their believers. In order to hold these mysterious powers for a long time, believers chose to record them in the most primitive way, so many special books have been produced, "Naket's Copy", "Canamagos Will", "The Soul of Chaos"... These books all contain powerful power, but... Hululu~"

Halfway through his speech, the snoring sounded, Zhu Jue was so excited that he could not sleep like this, so he quickly summoned a very small storm to the opposite side.

"Just what?"

"Hiss~ Ah snee...but those knowledge is not so easy to obtain. Just like the inevitable sacrifices of human beings in the process of research and exploration, the result of mortals forcibly reading those knowledge will only cause themselves to fall into endless madness and confusion, and it is more likely to face the terrifying existences in the void at some point. At that time, knowledge will no longer bring only power, but will also bring destruction... Just like the gods at the peak of Cardas, they actually exist, but they do not let anyone know their existence. They are strong enough to rule the entire world, they are so weak that they need the protection of foreign gods to survive, and who can guarantee whether there is a more powerful god above the foreign gods... The blind and ignorant, who knows everything, but forgets everything... Damn, sooner or later, I will climb to the peak of Cardas and let those gods dance for me... Oh ~ I can't think anymore, I need to rest..."

Perhaps because he hadn't been able to talk to others about those things for a long time, Atal, who had opened up the conversation, was undoubtedly in a certain logical and word order chaos at the end of the conversation, but the information he unintentionally revealed still made Zhu Jue's profitable.

"Is knowledge power?"

Recalling what I saw in "The Book of De Chian", Zhu Jue realized that he should try to read this book in depth.
