Chapter 151: The Lord God Civilization and the Hereditary Duke

Chapter 150

  In the Void Gallery, Rosen lay in a rocking chair with his eyes closed.

  He was not actually asleep, but was concentrating all his energy on the ash curtain.

  The tip of the magic pen was burning with firewood, and the picture on the ash curtain was now frozen on a building near the city center. Although the fonts on the surface of the building were unrecognizable, it could be seen that this was a place selling books.

  The characteristic of eternal transmission of the flame can ignite the afterglow of the ashes of civilization reflected by the curtain of ashes.

  However, this process is not without consumption. It requires the consumption of divine power to stimulate the characteristic of eternal inheritance.

  Rosen and his self-portrait doppelganger become Quetzalcoatl, able to transform spirituality into divinity.

  Nightmare Slime and Gray Rat can also transform spirituality into divinity through sharing.

  Then the golden divinity can also transform spirituality into divinity.

  This means that the amount of divinity Rosen can now use is 36 times 2, plus 34 times 4, and finally minus the minimum point that cannot be used. The actual amount of divinity that can be used is only 202 points.

  Once divinity is consumed, it is not as easy to recover as spirituality.

  Unless Rosen used his gluttonous stomach to directly digest the top-grade spiritual crystals, or the extraordinary materials that reached sequence 3, which would have the effect of quickly restoring his divinity, he had no choice but to continue swallowing the top-grade spiritual crystals he got from the gray mouse.

  I have forgotten how much I ate in the end, but in total I restored my divinity over three hundred times.

  In the end, it took more than 60,000 units of divinity to finally re-light the building that seemed to be selling books on the ash curtain.

  Rosen, who had been lying in the rocking chair for half a month, opened his tired and bloodshot eyes and took out a leaf from the golden apple tree.

  It's just a leaf, but it's already three feet long, which is a perfect size to be used as drawing paper.

  Rosen projected the lit building on the ash curtain onto the leaves. The flames burned the leaves silently, and soon a spherical building appeared on the leaves, as if it was a rubbing of a photo.

  Rosen hung the golden leaves on the wall, took a step forward, walked into the space in the painting and came to the bottom of the spherical building.

  Push open the glass door and you will see a light staircase in the hall leading to the upper floors.

  This type of optical ladder is somewhat similar to an elevator, except that it is not an elevator car that moves up and down.

  Instead, people standing on it will be directly transformed into light elements, and the human body that has been transformed into light elements will be accelerated vertically and sent to the upper level.

  Rosen walked around the hall and couldn't recognize the various unknown symbols and words.

  He searched through the Lord God's network, but also did not find this kind of text.

  In the end, he had no choice but to put his hope on the Lord God Computer.

  Rosen activated the photography function of the God-Hunting Demon Eye that was integrated into his right eye, and uploaded all the texts and pictures he saw. There was nothing new to discover in the hall, so he immediately took the light elevator to the upper floors of the spherical building.

  The second to fourth floors are all filled with various bookshelves and books, and the last fifth floor has a huge thing that resembles an astronomical telescope.

  With the help of the scanning ability of his left eye's virtual world pupil technique, Rosen scanned and copied all the books to the virtual world, and then uploaded them to the main god's computer. Soon the main god's computer's ability to identify information about things was activated, and it translated the unfamiliar text bit by bit.

  At this time, when Rosen looked at these unfamiliar words again, they were all automatically translated and displayed on his retina.

  Rosen quickly found the history bookshelf and took down a book called "A Brief History of the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom".

  He read very quickly, scanning two pages at a glance.

  After reading it, Rosen put down the "A Brief History of the Kingdom of Xinhuo" in shock.

  The Kingdom of Xinhuo is a powerful civilization that created the concept of Xinhuo.

  Before the Kingdom of Xinhuo, there was no spiritual world and no such concept as the inheritance of civilization.

  Ever since the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom created the Xinhuo of civilization, the entire Xinhuo Divine Kingdom has become increasingly powerful.

  There are more than ten gods of Sequence 0 in the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom, and there is even the Xinhuo True God who created the Xinhuo of civilization.

  However, because the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom grew stronger too quickly, the various civilizations outside the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom united to destroy the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom and take away the technology to ignite the fire of civilization. Since then, the Xinhuo Empire has been enemies all over the world.

  At the end of the brief history of the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom, the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom was already at an absolute disadvantage.

  In the latter part of the brief history, Rosen even saw some alien civilizations that had become extinct in ancient history.

  It is obvious that the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom was eventually destroyed by the true gods of all races.

  However, various alien races also suffered heavy losses, and some of the extinct alien civilizations might have been wiped out by the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom.

  The final victors divided up the technology that the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom used to ignite the flame of civilization. It was probably from then on that the spiritual world gradually came into being, and it was from then on that traces of various historical civilizations were preserved in the depths of the spiritual world.

  However, it is obvious that not all of the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom's resources have been taken away.

  The means to ignite the embers and rekindle the fire has always been hidden inside the kingdom of God of the True God of Fire, which was burned by the fire.

  The Howard family, the ancient guardian, has been guarding this hope for countless years.

  Rosen moved to the bookshelf where the spiritual practice books were placed and picked up a book called "Detailed Explanation of the Torch".

  As he read through the books on the bookshelf, he gained something but also felt disappointed.

  He gained a lot. He discovered that the four major sequences of human civilization are essentially four sequence paths born based on the torch of civilization. The extraordinary systems involved in these books alone are far inferior to the four major sequences of human civilization.

  Being ancient does not necessarily mean being powerful. Civilization is developing, and the system of civilization inheritance is also growing.

  The former Xinhuo Divine Kingdom, if the book does not boast, indeed possessed the most advanced and powerful civilization Xinhuo system of that era. It was indeed the most powerful civilization of that era, so those alien true gods joined forces to destroy the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom.

  However, countless years have passed, and the thieves of civilization have become more capable than their predecessors.

  Rosen shook his head and returned to the historical area, wanting to learn about the more complicated history of the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom period.

  As he read, he discovered a passage in the book that was related to civilization.

  It turns out that it is almost impossible for all civilizations in the world to exceed the upper limit of ten thousand years for the survival of civilization.

  All civilizations that exist for more than ten thousand years will immediately suffer a catastrophe from the rest of the world.

  Having successfully survived the catastrophe, civilization was able to survive for another ten thousand years.

  At this time, the country will face a second catastrophe, so the strength of a civilization is usually measured in units of catastrophe.

  The Xinhuo Divine Kingdom is a second-tribulation civilization that has existed for thirty thousand years.

  Finally, the third calamity was not survived, so the Xinhuo civilization was destroyed.

  If calculated in this way, the world government established by humans is now a second-kalpa civilization.

  The next nine thousand years will still be a period of prosperity for human civilization.

  In the cognition of the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom, the Liangjie civilization is already a very powerful civilization.

  Usually, the civilization that gives birth to a true God is a first-kalpa civilization. The civilization that gives birth to a unique civilization system similar to the flame of civilization on the basis of a true God is a second-kalpa civilization. There are only a few recorded cases of civilizations that have truly reached the third kalpa.

  However, there are three ancient civilizations that were destroyed by disasters. Legend has it that one of them once reached the oldest civilization of nine disasters.

  These three civilizations are cosmic civilization, ancient god civilization and main god civilization.

  Cosmic civilization is the source of all scientific and technological systems, ancient god civilization is the source of all extraordinary bloodlines, and main god civilization is the source of all true god systems. These three ancient civilizations are highly respected even in the history books of the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom.

  When Rosen saw the cosmic civilization, the first thing that came to his mind was his past life.

  At that time, the Blue Star was just a tiny star in the universe.

  Perhaps ninety thousand years from then on, the oldest cosmic civilization among the three great civilizations was born.

  After that, there was no clue about the ancient god civilization, but the main god civilization made him think of the main god computer.

  Is it possible that the Lord God Computer and the Lord God Temple in the mysterious study originated from the Lord God Civilization, the Nine Tribulations Civilization?

  These histories about ancient civilizations could be found in any library during the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom period.

  However, with regard to the current world government, it seems that only the history after the establishment of the world government is known to everyone.

  As for the history before the establishment of the World Government, it can't be said to be completely blocked, but it's almost the same.

  It is not difficult to understand why the world government blocks history. There was no spiritual world during the Xinhuo Divine Kingdom period. Today's spiritual world has the ability to preserve historical traces and the embers of the fire. If history is spread casually, the possibility of extinct civilizations reviving in the depths of the spiritual world will increase greatly.

  Rosen left the library and exited the space in the painting, and the worries in his heart were much less.

  What he was most worried about was that the power of the civilization he inherited had hidden dangers.

  But now it seems that the power of the Lord God Computer is very likely to exceed that of the Civilization. After all, one is a Nine Tribulations Civilization and the other is a Two Tribulations Peak Civilization. Thinking of this, he began to use the Lord God Computer to identify his own status information.

  The identification results come out very quickly. The more information the Lord God's computer collects, the more detailed the identification results will be.

  It turns out that the fire within his spirituality is also a miracle, a true miracle of God.

  Strictly speaking, the fire he holds should be called the fire of miracles.

  The flame of miracles is the source of all the flames of civilization. It has the ability to ignite the embers and rekindle the flames, as well as to devour the flames of different civilizations. In addition to these core abilities, the flame of miracles also has the two characteristics of being unique in the world and eternal and indestructible, just like all miracles.

  So even if the miracle flame was destroyed, it could still be reborn after 30,000 years.

  Moreover, the power of the human civilization contained in the noble extraordinary sequence mastered by Howard of all generations has become the nourishment for the rebirth of the miracle fire. Because the miracle fire has devoured a bit of the human civilization fire, the painter sequence can be transformed into a fire painter.

  Rosen was completely relieved at this moment. The miracle fire he had obtained really had no hidden dangers.

  The inheritance of the flame of miracles is really just an inheritance.

  As to why, the statue of the True God Xinhuo that he saw, and the man who cut off the statue's head, both had the same face as him, this remained an unsolved mystery to him.

  Rosen sat in front of the main god computer and took out two fragments of the godhead from the drawer.

  He didn't dare to take out these two things from the mysterious study.

  If the owner of these two items is still alive, taking them out outside the mysterious study would be tantamount to suicide.  

  The mouse cable was entangled with the fragment of the godhead, and endless colorful light was immediately drawn out by the main god's computer.

  Maybe it was because the power of the demon god was full last time, the main god computer did not intercept the colorful light this time.

  All the colorful brilliance was sent into the nobles' extraordinary source of essence by the main god's computer.

  Then, along with the noble extraordinary source, these colorful lights were sent into the ancient trees of the human civilization aristocratic sequence in the spiritual world.

  Rosen's earldom, which was originally non-hereditary, suddenly became a hereditary dukedom.

  Rosen couldn't feel it in the past, but now he can clearly feel it.

  As his noble rank was promoted, more flames of the civilizational fire in the ancient trees of the noble sequence were integrated into his extraordinary source essence. This amount of civilizational fire was enough for him to be promoted to Sequence 6 of the painter sequence after integrating the miracle fire.

  As for the civilization flame wrapped in the two fragments of the godhead, it is enough for the flame painter to advance from Sequence 6 to Sequence 5.

  If Rosen wants to advance to Sequence 5, he can only find a way to steal the torch of other civilizations.

  "Hereditary Duke, I now share the same title as Grand Duke Chiying."

  Rosen couldn't help laughing.

  The fragments of the godhead might be even more valuable, perhaps enough to make even demigods fight over it.

  However, a bird in the hand is worth a thousand in the bush. The sooner resources and treasures are transformed into strength, the higher their value.

  Just a hereditary duke title, even the emperor of the Thunder Empire has to treat him with courtesy.

  Of course, with his ability, traveling around with the hereditary duke title would do more harm than good.

  But after calming down, he felt a little strange. Although the value of the fragments of the godhead was very high, no matter how he thought about it, he should not be able to become a hereditary duke from a hereditary lord, unless the world government had a very high reward for merit for the owners of the two fragments of the godhead.

  Rosen immediately communicated with the ancient tree of the noble sequence to learn the details of his own title promotion.

  As expected, the World Government has a special reward.

  It turns out that the owner of these two fragments of the divine nature is actually a god from the World Government.

  However, when the second catastrophe broke out about ten years ago, this god stabbed the World Government in the back and betrayed humanity. Before the World Government could retaliate, the god had disappeared, so the World Government issued a super high bounty for this god.

  The reward is for everything related to this deity. The more valuable the item submitted, the higher the reward.

  Relying on the divinity and power transformed from the two fragments of the godhead as a medium, the world government can completely catch this god.

  Since Sequence 0 is involved, only demigods can take this mission.

  Of course, anyone below the level of a demigod who is a noble can also gain merit if they complete a task unexpectedly.

  Just as Rosen was about to spiritually leave the Noble Sequence Ancient Tree, a leaf suddenly fell from the tree.

  The leaf did not merge into the extraordinary essence, but fell into the hand and turned into a star emblem representing the world government.

  This emblem was actually a projection of a Sequence 0 supernatural object, the Star Emblem.

  All hereditary dukes and demigods can obtain this emblem and then use it to log into the deep web of the spiritual world.

  Through the deep web of the spiritual world, one can directly view and receive bounty missions issued by the world government only for demigods.

  In addition, the Star Emblem can also allow nobles to burst out spiritual power equivalent to the noble title in a short period of time.

  He is now a hereditary duke, which means that by activating the Star Emblem he can briefly burst out Sequence 4 spiritual power.

  Of course, since the spiritual limit was only temporarily enhanced to Sequence 4, and the skills and other aspects were not improved, the hereditary duke could only suppress Sequence 5 for a short period of time after activating the Star Emblem, which was still a huge gap from the true Sequence 4 strength.

  Normally, those who can obtain the Star Emblem no longer need this function.

  However, for Rosen, the nine seconds after activating the Star Emblem will become an important trump card for him.

  Just as Rosen was about to put away the Star Emblem, his Star Emblem received an official message from the World Government.

  The message asked him whether his personal freedom and personal safety were currently under control.

  Rosen immediately understood why the World Government officials would convey such a message through the Star Emblem.

  Normally, as a Sequence 7, it would be impossible for him to obtain the fragment of the Godhead, let alone know that the World Government has this bounty mission.

  So from the perspective of the World Government, someone was using him to complete the task.

  And he is the only surviving member of his Howard family. If they are not blood relatives, why would others give him the title of hereditary duke? Therefore, the World Government suspects that someone is restricting his freedom and using him.

  If he can't give an explanation for this, the World Government might send people to investigate his situation offline.

  Rosen thought about it, logged into the deep web of the spirit world through the Star Emblem and sent a reply.

  The general meaning is that his freedom was not restricted, but he refused to answer relevant questions as to why others gave him a hereditary dukedom.

  Soon Rosen received a reply, which this time only contained three questions.

  They were asking him whether he had betrayed human civilization and joined alien races, whether he had joined an organization against the world government, and whether the person who helped him obtain the hereditary dukedom was an alien or a member of an anti-world government organization. All three questions were marked with a yes or no answer.

  After Rosen answered honestly, he soon received a message from the World Government congratulating him on becoming a hereditary duke.

  Obviously, this hurdle has been passed. He was not wrong in his judgment. The World Government doesn't care about his little secret at all.

  Regarding the information inquiry just now, the World Government must have a way to confirm whether his answer is true or false.

  After confirming that he was not lying, his little secret would not alarm the world government for further investigation.

  Rosen tried to connect the network cable of the Lord God's computer to the Star Emblem, and sure enough, the Lord God's computer had the option of the Spirit World Deep Web. What surprised him even more was that by logging into the Spirit World Deep Web through the Lord God's computer, he could create a second identity for himself.

  Under normal circumstances, a human being who logs into the deep web of the spirit world through the Star Emblem can only have one identity.

  All login traces of this identity in the spiritual deep web are essentially under the control of the world government.

  Of course, the stronger your strength and the higher your title, the fewer people will have the authority to query relevant information.

  However, no matter how few there are, there are still people who cannot accept it. So even though the demigod level has the spirit world deep web, a supernatural network that allows unimpeded communication in the human world, most demigods still prefer to use spirit world messengers, simply because the latter are more confidential.

  However, by logging into the deep web of the spirit world through the Lord God's computer, Rosen can create a ghost identity that even the world government cannot detect.

  This time when I entered the spiritual realm guarded by the Howard family, I unexpectedly did not encounter any danger.

  Therefore, the three life-saving treasures he prepared were not used. The Sequence 4 extraordinary item purchased with the Lord God's gold coins was fine, but he planned to keep one of the two Sequence 3 extraordinary items purchased with the two golden apples, and it would be best if he could exchange the remaining one for a spiritual messenger.

  In both the main god's temple and the deep web of the spirit world, Rosen has issued a bounty for trading spirit world messengers.

  Prepare now, and once the Hunter Sequence reaches Sequence 6, you can tame it directly as a magical pet.

  Although he became a flame painter, Rosen had no interest in reviving the civilization of the Kingdom of Ashes.

  Instead, he searched the Internet every day for knowledge on making and laying out various traps, and then converted what he learned into proficiency in elemental trap making. In less than half a month, his skill level had reached the LV3 limit.

  Rosen immediately digested the Sequence 6 Hydra imprisoned in the stomach of gluttony and upgraded the elemental trap manufacturing technique to LV4.

  [Elemental Trap Creation Level 4 (1/400)]

  [Attributes: Can copy almost all elemental skills below sequence 5 and make them into trap runes]

  [Enhanced Features: Multiple Trap Fusion - Can produce combined effects with other types of trap runes]

  [Enhanced Features: Elemental Stacking - Can stack different elemental skills to form fusion elemental skills]

  The characteristic of elemental superposition is the most important gain for Rosen when hunting the Hydra.

  Moreover, only by integrating the power of the Hydra mutant into the skill can this feature be obtained at LV4. This is also the skill feature that countless trap hunters in the Thunder Empire dream of. It is equivalent to increasing the power of the elemental trap by at least twice.

  In just half a month, the elemental trap making technique has been upgraded from LV3 to LV4.

  The key lies in the special skill of the noble sequence, the Glorious Sage.

  You only need to master the knowledge related to the skills to convert the knowledge into proficiency of the corresponding skills.

  With the help of the Sage of Glory, I believe that the time trap manufacturing technique can be upgraded to level 4 soon.

  As for the time materials needed to strengthen this skill, someone in the Spirit World Network can provide them, but they are too far away from the Thunder Empire to be delivered to your door. The main god's temple also has them, but the price is too high.

  Rosen exited the spiritual world deep web and logged into the Thunder Empire's virtual network.

  If there is really no suitable extraordinary material with time attribute here, he can only be slaughtered in the main temple.

  After searching for several hours, Rosen found the time material he wanted.

  The Thunder Empire is rich in photographers, and the videotapes shot by photographers can also be transformed into spiritual realms.

  The transformation also requires the consumption of a large amount of spiritual crystals with the time attribute. This kind of extraordinary material mainly has three sources: the spiritual realm that produces extraordinary materials with the time attribute, the spiritual crystal veins with the time attribute, and the artificially bred extraordinary life with the time attribute.

  The Thunder Empire has all three avenues, but these are all strategic resources of the Thunder Empire.

  Rosen's target is the spiritual realm controlled by the Thunder Empire, but this spiritual realm is not open to the public at all.

  However, nothing is absolute in this world, and it seems that he has to go to the Great Rift Valley of Time.

  According to the information collected by the virtual network, the Great Rift of Time is the place where one of the Apostles of the God of Thunder fell. All the Apostles of God are Sequence 1. Because of the fall of this one, hundreds of thousands of miles of plains were torn apart to form a great rift.

  Moreover, a Sequence 1 spiritual realm was born, and the core of the spiritual realm was the fallen Apostle of God.

  Since humans cannot fully control this spiritual realm, they have only been able to continuously exploit and weaken it over the past 20,000 years. Now, this spiritual realm has been weakened to Sequence 5, and its importance to the Thunder Empire has become increasingly lower.

  Therefore, by paying some price, Rosen may be able to obtain the qualification to enter this spiritual realm.
