Chapter 596 What, the information is false?
As he watched the sapphire robin slowly fly away, Aiwass just smiled happily.
Now, Aiwass is no longer so afraid of Moriarty.
——This is what intelligence warfare is like, calm on the surface but dangerous in reality.
Just a problem with the wording of a word can be used by a keen hunter to tear open such a huge flaw; just a difference in information in a sentence can immediately reverse the strength and weakness of two people.
Although "knowledge is poisonous"... from another perspective, cognition itself is power.
In a sense, "intelligence" is an extremely dangerous and twisted mysterious ability - on the one hand, it can enable people to seize the initiative everywhere, exploit others without leaving a trace, see through others' weaknesses, make people dizzy and full of fear but unable to find even the enemy's trace; but on the other hand, relying too much on this power can also poison people's minds and make them arrogant, make people feel restrained and gradually lose courage, and ultimately backfire on themselves.
The moment Aiwas saw through the weakness of Professor Moriarty's intelligence, he immediately had a strong premonition that "I seem to be able to control him and use him."
"...I don't want to become the next LeBron James."
He murmured a warning to himself.
Although he had been imitating his adoptive father since childhood, Aiwass found that the older he got, the more he resembled him. His habits, temperament, and style gradually became more similar to his.
He now feels respect, pity and vigilance towards his adoptive father.
Although he couldn't be said to hate him, the professor was undoubtedly Aiwass's biggest enemy - if there was a button that could kill Professor Moriarty by pressing it, Aiwass would press it immediately.
——Because the professor would really attack the people around Aiwass, and Aiwass didn't know the professor's trump card, so he really didn't dare to attack him.
Although Night Demon was also at the sixth energy level, his combat time was limited. If the professor survived, or even had the ability to resurrect, he would be on guard and pay more attention to Aiwass, and then he might start a serious guerrilla war.
He wouldn't attack Aiwass, but he would definitely start harassing people close to Aiwass.
For a paranoid savior, all talk is useless. And as a soul who has returned to the "cicada molting" period, Aiwass has no idea how many cards he has.
He lacked a natural talent for the Path of Beauty, yet he was able to remain in the Fairy Kingdom. Perhaps it was the effect of his previous life's extraordinary professions as "Elemental Mentor" or "Elemental Shaman"... after all, those were originally professions related to fairies.
It is even possible that the Fairy Queen, a celestial-level deity, is also on his side!
Therefore, Aiwass chose to hide all his cards in front of Professor Moriarty.
Wait until he finds an opportunity and finds out the professor's background, then launch a sneak attack and kill him with one move!
For this kind of person, once you take action, you must never give him a chance to escape!
But speaking of the Fairy Queen...
Aiwass glanced over and saw that the Fairy Queen Titania had not woken up yet.
She was leaning lazily on her huge throne, as if curled up on a sofa. Even so, she still maintained her elegance and beauty.
Since she wasn't awake yet, there was no need for Aiwass to leave the birdcage in a hurry.
He simply sat cross-legged on the ground and sorted out the information he had just obtained.
"...In other words, my adoptive father is indeed a 'savior' and a 'time traveler' who was reborn from the apocalypse. But the future he knows is completely different from what I know."
Aiwass had vaguely felt something was wrong before, but he was never quite sure what the problem was.
Now he finally understood.
He had seen Professor Moriarty go mad and become the final boss in the game, which meant that the professor had already implemented his plan to save the world. In other words, the history he knew was at least one chapter ahead of the players.
However, he did not mention the "Tail Ring" ritual - he said "there is even an elementalist who has advanced to the sixth energy level", which means that "sixth energy level" extraordinary people are rare in his knowledge.
...It's like playing a game. The professor participated in closed beta testing and suffered a lot of frustration while navigating the game due to insufficient information. When the game entered closed beta or public beta testing, he learned from his previous mistakes and carefully studied all the data from the closed beta testing to plan his own growth.
Looking back, I found that the data, mechanisms, and growth paths had all changed!
What? The intelligence is fake?
"No wonder, even though Professor Moriarty had already returned to the past, he didn't feel that sense of urgency..."
...the sense of urgency of the eventual battle with Tiansi.
His layout was densely packed, covering multiple countries, stretching over decades, and the targets he directly controlled and influenced probably exceeded a thousand people; but he had never put together a top team that truly belonged to him, nor had he considered how to handle the Tiansi War, or what benefits he could gain from it... not to mention the distribution of Tiansi fragments, and the specific time and place of Tiansi's summons.
As a time traveler, this is neither reasonable nor qualified.
Unless the professor's information contained no such information. In his opinion, the sixth energy level was considered the pinnacle of power, so having reached the peak of the fifth energy level, there was no need for him to continue improving his strength.
Although every word Professor Moriarty said was true.
But this didn't mean he couldn't use the truth to mislead others, nor did it mean that what he knew was the truth... For example, he once told Aiwass that Ouroboros had obtained the Endless Knot at the beginning of its "Cicada Shedding" and that it had later ascended to become the Endless Knot, commanding the six elements.
Therefore, when Aiwass first worked as a demonologist, his adoptive father specifically reminded him, "Don't use materials from your own race."
——It wasn't that he was afraid that Aiwass wouldn't be able to be promoted to the Scholar of Great Sin; rather, he was worried that Aiwass would be promoted to the incarnation of the devil, and thus disintegrate after the demise of the Fallen Angels!
Actually, whether Aiwass got promoted or not had nothing to do with him. On the contrary, whether Aiwass lived or died had a lot to do with him...but Aiwass was so frightened at the time that he didn't have time to think about it.
Only Aiwass knew that the Ouroboros would eventually be promoted to the "Ouroboros Ring"!
In the game, the demons never perished or shattered, and even continued to exist after their ascension. There was no Elementalist, a new class that was transferred from the Alchemist, but rather the Demonologist took over and was promoted to the Sin Scholar.
In that version of the future, regardless of whether the "sacred entity" - or the "reincarnation fragment" was Aiwass or the player, Huan Tiansi did not succeed in devouring them.
In another future that the Scaled and Feathered Lord had shown Aiwass, the Tail Ring devoured Aiwass and returned him to his perfect state. At that time, the halo behind him was half red, half purple, a balance of devotion and transcendence.
This obviously didn't match the six elements, but rather resembled the future in the game.
In the professor's cognition, Huantiansi has always been part of the path of balance.
The "Elementalist" class, which transforms the six elements, exudes a sense of balance. The power of balance within them is perhaps even stronger than the power of transcendence.
The "loop of the tail" means that what rises will eventually fall, and what falls will eventually rise, just like the sunrise and the moonset; while the "endless knot" means that what rises nor falls, but constantly changes chaotically within the grand unified field.
If we say that the Tail Ring cut out Aiwass because there was too much transcendence in the body.
Then, even if He cuts out a fragment of the Endless Knot, which originally emphasizes balance over transcendence, how can He be the Evans who is proficient in transcendence and devotion?
And from what the professor said, it seems that there is no "dedication" in the power structure of "Endless Knot".
——At present, this seems to be the biggest difference between the "Professor Line" and the "Tail Loop Line"!
"Could it be... that Sizhu was also involved?"
Aiwass murmured softly.
But in this situation, it would be a good thing if the Pillar God intervened.
This means that what his adoptive father knew, that the Pillar God was turning a blind eye to the end of the world, did not actually exist.
The world may indeed be facing a crisis, but he is not the only "savior". At least there are some Pillar Gods who are aware of the situation and are taking measures.
Perhaps the reason why those pillar gods paid attention to and protected Aiwass was because he was a "variable"!
"But if you put it that way..."
Aiwass frowned slightly: "Why did Xiong Tiansi still want to attack me and kill me?"
Although He is now the Heavenly Minister, He was once the Pillar God "Supreme Heaven"!
Aiwas's eyes lit up and he realized something:
——All the pillar gods who have shown goodwill to Aiwass have survived to the end!
Whether it was the Xiong Tiansi who was defeated in the past, or the Snake Father who was "killed" in the future, they all failed to live to the "doomsday" as Professor Moriarty said.
You know, Aiwass is highly adaptable to the Path of Transcendence. Before being influenced by Queen Sofia, he even lost control and completely turned to the Path of Transcendence. And in the beginning, Aiwass also spontaneously awakened his Path of Transcendence. Not to mention, he might actually be a fragment of Ouroboros... and Ouroboros is a true descendant of the Serpent Father.
However, not only the candlelight from the Path of Devotion—even the pillar gods from the Path of Beauty, the Path of Adaptation, and the Path of Authority—had come to visit, but the Snake Father had completely ignored Aiwass. Of course, this wasn't a problem; it was more like normal.
On the contrary, it was unusual for Huan Tiansi to come to Aiwas every day when he had nothing to do. And Aiwas had never set foot on the Tao, but there were a lot of pillar gods watching him - this was even more unusual!
Perhaps it was not just Professor Moriarty who returned, but all the Pillar Gods at that time!
"I'm afraid the professor's return and rebirth are not accidental. He must be a pawn of some other entity..."
Aiwass pondered.
Who is it? The candlelighter? The hourglass? My new boss of the colorful black, or...
...Where is Amber?
