It's no wonder that such a possibility popped into Linnaeus's mind.
In the eyes of most people, all gods are seen as incredibly sacred, powerful, and solemn figures.
But Linnaeus had read Carlos's notes...
I've also had contact with old gods like the Mist God, Gaiying...
Whether they were powerful or not is another matter, but sacred and solemn... these two words don't seem quite right to describe them...
Lieutenant Li stared at Lin Nai's expression, unable to guess what the young man was thinking.
"What, it seems you're unwilling to help me?"
Linnai came to her senses and said, "It's not that I'm unwilling to help you, but I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you."
"I haven't been able to fully decipher the mysteries of this book yet; I still can't translate most of the text."
Lieutenant Li narrowed his eyes, clearly not believing what Lin Nai said.
"It's alright. Since you won't help me, I have my own way."
Not long after, the skinny old man returned.
They placed Linnaeus on a chair and secured him with pliers.
A whole bunch of technological instruments around us started up, humming and buzzing.
Linnaeus asked, "So what kind of experiment are you going to give me this time?"
Lieutenant Li said, "You are the chosen one of prophecy, selected by Carlos."
"As it turns out, the prophecy left by Carlos was true. Even among the apostles, you are an extremely special existence."
"You possess a divine core within your body, capable of releasing the purest divine power."
"Therefore, I think the secret to breaking the Book of Annihilation lies within this divine core."
Lieutenant Li held the book "Record of Destruction" in both hands, slowly walked to a scientific table, and with a solemn expression, as if handling some sacred object, carefully placed the book on it.
The gaunt old alchemist plugged a whole bunch of device interfaces into Linnaeus's body.
Then, they carefully connected the other end of those device interfaces to the "Record of Destruction" placed on the platform.
Linnaeus: "..."
Goodness...
There aren't enough of them to conduct experiments with now.
You won't even spare a single book...
"Are you guys crazy?" Linnai was speechless. "Are you planning to pour divine power into a book?"
"The rune matrix on divine weapons needs to be relit with divine power, so why can't the text in these books be relit?"
Lieutenant Li turned around and looked him intently into his eyes.
"We've spent so much time and tried every method to translate the text in this book, but we still haven't been able to. I think Carlos must have sealed it away in some way, and it can only be deciphered by some specific means—for example, the divine power of you, the prophesied child!"
Linnaeus: "..."
It's just that Carlos's handwriting is a bit too bad...
There aren't that many fancy tricks involved!
"Try it and you'll know the result."
Lieutenant Li turned to the gaunt old man and said, "Let's begin!"
Upon hearing this, the gaunt old man immediately pressed a button on the control panel.
All the scientific instruments started working.
Under the operation of the instrument, Linnaeus's divine core was forcibly activated.
The divine power was slowly transmitted through the energy tube inserted into his body to the "Record of Destruction" placed on the platform.
Energy converges within the books.
"Buzzing..."
"Buzzing..."
As divine power surged, several divine characters on the parchment cover of the "Record of Destruction" suddenly lit up!
It's like the runes that have been lit up on a divine weapon!
Suddenly, a locked door in Linnai's mind seemed to be opened!
Countless memories seemed to be awakened suddenly!
Buzz—
Linnaeus's pupils suddenly turned silver-gray.
In his vision, the "Record of Destruction" emitted a strange light!
The entire sheepskin cover of the book changed from brownish-yellow to pure black in an instant!
All the text in the book seemed to float into the air instantly, the dense divine script arranged in perfect order to form a wall in the air, and all of it became bright!
'Holy crap?! ?? ?'
Lin Nai was secretly surprised.
'It actually reacted?!'
'Could it be that they actually stumbled upon the perfect opportunity...?'
When Lieutenant Li saw the divine script shining on the sheepskin cover, his eyes suddenly lit up with excitement and fervor!
It did react!
I knew it!
I knew it!
However......
This "reaction" did not last long.
The few divine characters on the sheepskin cover lit up for only a few seconds before quickly dimming.
And then, that was it...
"What's going on??"
Lieutenant Li frowned.
At the very beginning, the divine script on the parchment cover was clearly illuminated by Linnae's divine power.
Why has it dimmed again now?
Linnaeus's pupils gradually changed from silver-gray back to their normal color.
He glanced at the reactions of Lieutenant Li and the gaunt old man, lost in thought.
Judging from their reactions, it seems that Lieutenant Li and his men could not see the astonishing phenomenon that had just emerged from the book.
They seemed to have only seen a few divine characters flash briefly on the book's parchment cover.
