It was not until this time that Norton revealed his ambition for the first time.
Sylvia is the container that contains all of Dusk's authority and divinity.
She is also a key.
The ultimate goal of mortals is the legendary level. This has been an iron rule recognized by the supernatural world for hundreds of years.
But there are indeed so-called gods in this world... The false gods, evil gods, ancient gods worshipped by many secret organizations, or the righteous gods believed in by the church all confirm this point of view.
There is a dark ocean between the legendary realm and the divine realm... The hundreds of years of historical faults in the "Land of Disaster" have shrouded this ocean in layers of impenetrable fog.
For thousands of years, countless people have explored and searched in that dark ocean, and have blazed many trails, which they believe is the "path to becoming a god."
It’s just that no one knows whether the path they are taking is correct, whether it can lead to the end, and no one has ever walked to the end of this road.
Now Norton has found a secluded path. This path to becoming a god seems more reliable, but there is an ancient bronze door blocking the middle of the road.
...
...
Sylvia is the key to open this bronze door. After the bronze door is opened, one can meet the ancient god named "Dusk". Some people hope to seal Him behind the door forever, while others will kneel on the ground and pray for His blessings.
Norton is different from the first two. What he wants to do is to steal the other party's power and then replace it.
Considering his strength that has not yet reached the sixth ring, this undoubtedly seems a bit audacious.
However, due to the existence of the seal and Sylvia, as well as the help of the secret organization, this plan became feasible.
Norton was examining Char, and a vague shadow appeared in the void behind him. As long as he detected the slightest abnormality on Char's face, he would attack without mercy.
Char showed an expression of inexplicable surprise, as if he was shocked by Norton's crazy plan.
But soon, a hint of determination flashed across his face.
"No matter what, as long as it is Lord Norton's will, I will obey."
…
[Novice Mission Stage 4: Complete the Coming-of-Age Ceremony of the Grand Duke Cang Ting Family, and become a core member of the family through the Coming-of-Age Ceremony, truly join Elder Norton's plan, the goal has been completed]
[Task rewards have been settled]
[Based on the host's comprehensive performance in this mission phase, the following mission rewards are issued: 40,000 free experience points]
The reward for this mission is not too much.
In the final analysis, this is because the tasks of this link should only belong to the connection and transition part, which does not pose much challenge or danger.
Simply passing the coming-of-age ceremony was not difficult at all for Char at the moment. It was just a matter of spending some time running through the circles.
Moreover, his greatest gain in this historical remnant was the contract with Red, so it was reasonable that the mission reward was less.
[Newbie mission status has been updated]
[You have already known the entire secret of the Cang Ting Principality, and you also know Elder Norton's ambitious plan.]
【Now, fate is separated into two unrelated straight lines before your eyes. 】
[Where it will lead to in the end depends on your choice. 】
…
[The final goal of the novice mission: Let Sylvia, the young and immature daughter of the Grand Duke of Cangting, experience the betrayal of her loved ones, and complete her transformation and rebirth in pain and despair.]
[The remnants of history - the second node of "Ancient Cang Ting Kingdom" has arrived]
[The current historical node has been locked. Please choose to exit the historical reverberation or stay to complete the mission goal.]
[Tip: This node is an important divergence point, which will directly affect the final outcome of the historical reverberation. Please treat it with caution. ]
“If the entire Reverberations of History were likened to a role-playing game.”
"So now, I should be standing at the last save point in front of the boss room."
"If I really follow the process of playing the game, then what I should do now is... collect intelligence and make the most perfect strategy, spend all the gold coins to buy the best armor, weapons and supplies, and recruit the best teammates."
"Then, after making all the necessary preparations—" "Complete the game in one go."
Char smiled and chose to withdraw from the Reverberations of History.
This time, Char's exit was much smoother than the first time when he had no experience, and the dizziness caused by the confusion of time and space was also much lessened.
After the distorted halo disappeared, what came into view was the familiar ceiling of the bathroom.
Char looked at the clock beside him and found that only less than an hour had passed.
Obviously, this time he stayed in the echoes of history longer, but the interval between them was shorter.
Xia washed his face with cold water in front of the sink and forced himself to calm down.
He really needs time to think carefully and prepare——
How to complete this novice mission, and even the last section of the historical remnants.
If he just wanted to complete the so-called "betrayal" according to the mission objective, then he actually didn't have to do anything, he just had to follow Norton's plan.
However, Norton's words revealed a hidden message -
Sylvia is the key.
The key that has completed its mission of unlocking the door will naturally have only one ending: breaking in the keyhole.
…
Char pushed open the bathroom door and came to the second-floor corridor.
The magnificent magic chandelier in the living room downstairs is turned on.
Aurora was sitting in the living room, processing piles of documents under the light of the magic lamp, her long, soft light golden hair draped over the sofa behind her.
"Congratulations, Xiao Ai."
Xia yawned and went downstairs.
At this moment, Airola did not restrain her mental power. In Char's perception, the whole body of his childhood sweetheart was surrounded by a sharp edge.
It was as if what was before Char was not a beautiful 17-year-old girl, but a holy spear with a sharp edge that was powerful enough to pierce through mountains and shatter stars.
She has also broken through the third ring, and her strength after the breakthrough should be even stronger than Char and Airola themselves expected.
"Thanks."
The blonde girl nodded slightly and said expressionlessly, "Char-san, you should also make sure to eat a balanced diet since you've been in the bathroom for so long."
Xia's footsteps paused slightly, realizing something was wrong.
The point was not about trivial matters such as the bathroom or a bad stomach, but about what Aurora called herself.
Normally this girl was used to not addressing him or calling him by his name, but once she started using the title "Char-san", it often meant that something was out of her control.
Char began to wonder where the mistake had occurred.
It can't be that he sensed Silvia's existence from across time and space... The problem is that after the last sixth sense incident, Char had clearly learned his lesson. Before leaving the Reverberations of History this time, he even took a shower and changed his clothes.
His confusion was soon answered.
Because Char saw the pink envelope placed separately from other business documents on the wooden table in front of Airola.
There were two lines of beautiful handwriting on the pink envelope:
The recipient column reads "Char Eggot"
The sender column read "Diris".
