CHAPTER 59: CHAPTER 9: THE ERA OF MONSTERS

Night Watch Headquarters.

Benjamin arranged a temporary room for Shawn; investigators generally don’t live nearby as they roam around Dorne City.

"You should rest well."

Before closing the door, Benjamin said, "The headquarters has already recalled the Death Pilgrims. There might still be some actions tonight."

Shawn didn’t know how many Death Pilgrims there were in Dorne City.

But today he saw at least six, all of them were high-tier Transcendents, incredibly powerful, easily suppressing even mythical creatures. Others’ abilities were too bizarre to identify, but Jason Tangel, when transformed, appeared almost like a mini-Hulk to Shawn.

The room wasn’t big, but it was fully equipped with living necessities.

Sitting on the bed, Shawn couldn’t help but sigh, "In this Bizarre Realm, without power, there really isn’t any sense of safety."

A High Sequence Polluter from the Mind Path has turned all of Dorne City upside down.

Maintaining order is far more difficult than creating chaos.

"Hope we can catch that guy."

Shawn poured himself a glass of water, ready to enter into meditation and digest the knowledge from previous memories.

High-tier Transcendent from the Mind Path, if he truly escapes, catching him again won’t be easy, especially since his ability in the real world is like cheating, everywhere he can control slaves.

Knowledge whispered in silence.

Ever since Shawn touched the number 1 sealed object, the knowledge in his brain became increasingly active.

There are both benefits and drawbacks.

The benefit is Shawn’s speed in digesting knowledge and Extraordinary Essence has accelerated, the drawback being he was almost about to hear ’knowledge speak’.

——Auditory hallucination.

This is a sign of mental pollution accumulating to a certain extent, Shawn suspected his mental contamination became a bit more serious when touching the number 1 sealed object.

"If this matter goes smoothly, I must plan a vacation in advance." Shawn thought to himself.

Investigators have a code of conduct.

That is, once there’s a sign of ’auditory hallucination,’ one must immediately begin rest and cease all activities to avoid descending into madness.

Mild mental pollution can recover on its own, but once truly insane, no adjustment will work, very hard to come back.

This is the mental threshold as a warning line.

Soon.

The knowledge flowing through Shawn’s mind began to activate, he opened his memories and browsed the forcibly memorized content from the Maze Library, preparing to digest it bit by bit.

At the current pace, he would entirely digest the first stage of Extraordinary Essence roughly a month ahead of schedule.

——Extraordinary Promotion Sequence.

The various occupational paths of Transcendents are for facilitating human cognition; strictly speaking, these occupational systems of the Old Era no longer exist.

Human Transcendents have always been using monster power.

Their Promotion Sequences are also monster sequences.

The various occupational systems are manifestations of bizarre power, the sequence fields they can access are closely related to monster relics obtained from the source.

For Transcendents on the Warrior Side, basic sequences are mostly fury and courage.

Further advancement leads to destruction, slaughter, brutality, etc. If a Transcendent cannot control the power well, they might lose control.

Sequence is a world corresponding low-level concept, possibly a Natural Law, an emotion, or even a strange supernatural phenomenon, etc. They exist as certain concepts within the Bizarre Realm, condensed into corresponding Domain Laws.

But they do not belong to humans!

When Transcendents promote, they also integrate the corresponding laws into their bodies, where fury may turn into brutality, courage becomes recklessness, reaching the extreme results in courageous destruction and slaughter, all sequence power origins point to twisted Conceptual Laws.

Only by stepping onto the Path of Destiny can everything be corrected.

Because only by promoting to Destiny Legendary, they can turn ancient, incomprehensible Origin Laws into their own Power Laws.

If promotion fails, a polluted Ascender might emerge.

Other occupational paths’ sequence fields also face similar situations.

Daisy is from the Wild Sequence, her transformations are mostly dominated by primitive bestial instincts, before she steps onto the Path of Destiny to access the Path of Nature, her power manifests in a twisted primal wildness. This twisted primal wildness originates from the evil objects of the Natural Side within the Bizarre Realm.

Shawn is currently more inclined to the Knowledge Side, hence everyone knows the mysterious state of the knowledge in his brain.

Yet he has just shortly promoted, not yet becoming a high-tier Caster.

In this world, all conceptual fields are twisted into the Promotion Sequences of grotesque creatures; this monster sequence also impacts human Transcendents as they do not have their own promotional system, their power origin is stolen.

They use the monster promotion system!

"We are thieves!"

The evil objects born of fury are bound to be brutal, the warriors who digest their Extraordinary Essence also become polluted accordingly.

Human Transcendents have always been using monster power, only by promoting to Destiny Legendary can they turn everything around and possess their own power.

If the sequence is corrected, it aligns with the Old Era’s Extraordinary Domain.
