Chapter 636 Star Taboo



Sonia's pupils suddenly contracted.

She was silent for a moment, sat in the back seat of the car, and said, "You really pay attention to me."

"You haven't adapted to your change of identity yet." Felix said, "You are no longer the unknown female student, nor the two-winged magician with good grades in Meteoric Tribulation... You are a Sanctuary magician with a secret."

"Who you like, what flowers you like, where you've been, who you've met, your every move is under the spotlight, all your actions will be studied under a magnifying glass for hidden meanings, and yet you dare to openly seek a way to cross the country... You should cherish your life more."

Sonia frowned and asked, "What do you mean? Am I in danger?"

"If I hadn't helped tamper with your borrowing records, you would have been on the throne room's list of key concerns and being monitored by at least one Bullet Star Warrior."

Throne Room!?

The village girl never thought that she would be associated with the throne room, an institution directly under the royal family.

The only thing that the citizens of the stars know about the throne room is the handsome and powerful Bullet Star Guards under its command. As for what kind of work it actually does, they know basically nothing.

Although the Star People's understanding of government agencies is basically from movies and TV series, the fact that the Throne Room and the Bullet Star Guard never appear in any movies or TV series is enough to illustrate the influence of this mysterious department.

"How could the throne room pay attention to me?" Sonia didn't quite believe Felix's words: "Let alone endangering the country, I have been keeping a low profile these days. Why would it pay attention to me?"

"You should know that every book you read in the library has a 'keyword' to identify it, and you have read a lot of books with keywords such as 'exotic', 'time travel', and 'foreign news' in the past two months." Felix said: "If you are just an ordinary person, then reading these books is not a big deal; if you don't read these books, then the throne room will not pay attention to you, a new Sanctuary magician."

"However, you are a Sanctuary magician who has a preliminary understanding of the truth of the world and can already ignore the social system. You are reading these books with taboo keywords. You are simply actively showing yourself to the eyes of the throne room."

Sonia couldn't understand: "Why would the throne room pay attention to inquiries about how to travel through countries? If traveling through countries is really taboo in the throne room, then why don't they delete and ban all related books, but leave them for us to read..."

As she spoke, the village girl's voice gradually became softer.

Felix said, "You've thought of it, right? As long as there is a virtual realm that can connect all magicians, there will be no possibility of 'monopolizing knowledge'. On the contrary, the more the royal family bans it, the more people will seek taboo knowledge - magicians are such rebellious and adventurous creatures forever."

There are wild magic spirits in the virtual world, magician manuals, and various virtual world mechanisms. Even uneducated magicians can obtain the inheritance of countless sages from opportunities again and again.

Any behavior that monopolizes knowledge may work for one year, or ten years, but it will never work for a hundred years - even if you can monopolize the living, can you monopolize the dead?

Not to mention that just by flipping through other people's magician manuals, everyone naturally knows that there are other countries. Knowing this will make you curious, and curiosity will lead to exploration. In such an environment, how can it be possible to prevent magicians from having the idea of ​​traveling across countries?

Felix tapped the steering wheel. "Instead of blocking the flow of information in vain, it is better to put these materials where everyone can see them. However, as long as a Sanctuary magician reads them multiple times, in large quantities, and frequently, it will trigger the trap mechanism of the throne room and put them on the watch list urgently."

After hearing this, Sonia was actually half-convinced, but she still didn't understand: "Why would the throne room be afraid of a Sanctuary magician who wants to cross the realm? Is crossing the realm a taboo?"

Felix shook his head.

"No, among the six great kingdoms, the other five have no such taboo. After all, traveling across kingdoms is already extremely difficult. If a Saint Domain magician puts his mind into this, he can only gain benefits from the spatial faction, or invent other miracles - many miracles are often invented by accident - but it is impossible to research the miracle of traveling across kingdoms, otherwise you wouldn't be unable to find any clues at all."

"Therefore, 'traveling across countries' is not a taboo in other countries. Even if it is a difficult goal to achieve, magicians can discover new scenery and gain new insights in the process of pursuing this goal."

"But only in the Starry Kingdom, any Sanctuary magician who is interested in traveling through time will be monitored by the royal family and the church."

Sonia suddenly realized something, and her ruby-like eyes glowed with a strange luster.

Felix saw the village girl with shining eyes in the rearview mirror and chuckled, "I know what you are thinking - you probably think that other countries do not prohibit time travel because it is difficult. On the other hand, if the Star Country is afraid of time travel, doesn't it mean that there is a simple way to travel from the stars to other places?"

"I can tell you very clearly that it is not. Whether you want to enter or leave the stars, it is equally difficult. In the travel notes of magicians that you read, the authors basically reach other countries through the virtual realm channel, because this is the only regular way to travel through all countries, even if this path itself is random."

"What the royal family and the church are really afraid of is not whether the Sanctuary Magicians can figure out a "method" to leave the stars, but the "idea" of the Sanctuary Magicians trying to leave the stars."

"Just like the Emiya nobles cannot have the thought of corruption and abuse of power, and the Kinu nobles cannot have the desire to fight for power, what you have committed, Sonia, is a thought crime."

Sonia pondered for a long time. She looked at the large playground in the distance, which dyed the night sky with colorful lights. The sky was clear tonight, the stars were shining brightly, and everything seemed to be covered with a thin silver gauze.

"You mean, if I have this idea, I will be considered as someone who might rebel against the stars?" Sonia guessed, "Indeed, if a normal magician is living a good life, why would he want to leave his country? Even if a Saint Domain magician is curious about foreign countries, he will give up if he encounters obstacles during research and feels that the difficulty is too great."

"If I am determined to study the method of traveling across realms, will the throne room think that I am dissatisfied with Fanxing? Maybe they will even think that I have no loyalty to Fanxing and only want to run away to other realms to develop?"

However, Felix did not give a direct answer, but asked: "So, I can still provide some help to the Claw Sword Master?"

Felix made his words clear - those were all free public content, but what was coming up next were VIP paid chapters.

Sonia still wanted to get something for free: "You are just a two-winged magician. How can I know whether these secrets you told me are true or false?"

“I actually don’t know whether it’s true or not.”

Felix said frankly, "I am just a magician who has not even entered the Faraway Space. Even if I am interested in traveling through the realm, the throne room will not pay attention to me."

"But my source of information is the mutual aid group. There are many Sanctuary magicians there. Some of them are being monitored by the throne room because they are researching how to cross the realm. They don't even have personal freedom in the Sanctuary. It's almost like house arrest."

"If you don't believe me, you can continue your research, but my help to you ends here. Next time you look for books with the keyword 'time travel', find a way to erase the traces of borrowing it yourself."

Sonia finally understood why Felix was so confident - if the offer he made before was "what you can get if you join us", then the condition he gave this time was "what you will lose if you don't join us"!

As long as Sonia continues to try to find a way to cross the kingdom from the Starry Kingdom, she will inevitably attract the attention of the Throne Room, and may even be suppressed, warned, and placed under house arrest!

The timing of Felix's visit was quite clever, for it was just when Sonia had finished reading through the Morikane Flower Collection at Jianhua University and was preparing to go to other university collections to look for more information.

Although Sonia could find ways to hide her traces, firstly, she had no experience in this area and the risk of being exposed was extremely high, and secondly, she was not mentally prepared.

In essence, Sonia is actually a cautious little country girl who basically never touches any illegal or criminal activities. The worst evil thing she has ever done is to pretend to accidentally step on someone's feet with her high heels and to use a system loophole to use the hot water in the dormitory for unlimited bathing.

Sonia felt a little scared at the thought of possibly offending the Royal Church - how could a little swordsman like her have the courage to do that!

It’s not that she doesn’t dare, but becoming an enemy of Fanxing just because of “researching methods of time travel” is as outrageous as beating someone to death over an argument about whether to dip lala fat in vinegar or not!

On the other hand, Felix's conditions this time were not very strong. After all, most people would give up their research on the method of time travel to avoid being targeted by the throne room. How could they join them just to continue their research?

But Felix was very confident. Although she had no reason, she was sure that "crossing the country" was extremely important to Sonia!

It was also because of this that she collected a lot of information about crossing countries from the organization in advance, just to make an offer that Sonia could not refuse!

Sonia finally asked, "Do you have a way to cross the country?"

"Not now, because that is not our key project, but there is a lot of information, which is definitely secret information that you can't find even if you turn over the entire Galaxie Library." Felix said, "And there are many magicians who are proficient in space factions. It's better for you to study with them than to bump around like a blind fly."

"Let's take a step back and say that even if there is no result, we still have a way to find the virtual realm passage. Although the virtual realm passage is random, many virtual realm passages are generated every year. No matter where you want to go, as long as you are willing to wait patiently, you will get there sooner or later."

Felix finally revealed her trump card: in addition to resources, there is also a guarantee!

If Sonia wants to conduct in-depth research on the method of time travel, she has enough connections and research resources; if Sonia just wants to achieve her goal, she also has a backup method that will definitely ensure success!

As long as traveling across countries is an unyielding goal in Sonia's heart, she will never be able to refuse the conditions she offers!

Sonia pursed her lips until the laughter from the playground overflowed again. Then she asked, "Who are you guys? There's no need to talk about the magician mutual aid group."

"I still can't tell you before you join, but I can show you a little bit of our strength..."

Felix bit the white glove with his fingers and took it off, revealing her left hand with fair skin and slender fingers, and -

The terrifying round hole in the palm of his left hand.

Felix covered her eyes with her left hand, and Sonia could see her eyes through the round holes in her palm. This strange composition gave the village girl a strong sense of amazement, as if she was appreciating a wonderful painting, or a wonderful sculpture!

Um!?

Sonia suddenly found that her body could not move, and her magic power was completely stagnant!
