Chapter 425 Piercing the Soul
Aaron understood something.
The lost chapters record not only words, but also all words and images.
Currently, Aaron is browsing through the lost chapters, reading the contents recorded therein.
"Nancy,"
The handsome man in front of Aaron, dressed in light clothing, spoke to him.
Aaron knew that his perspective was that of a woman named Nancy.
As if guided by something, Aaron also accurately called out the other person's name:
"What is it, Wes?"
"Were you even listening to me?" Weiss asked, looking somewhat displeased. "You seemed completely distracted."
Aaron had thought he was just an observer, but he seemed to be able to control the body he was in.
It was as if his soul had already taken over it.
Aaron replied, "I'm listening, but perhaps you could be more specific."
"Hoo—" Weiss let out a long breath. "Those ancient gods, based on their power, have come to our world. They brought destruction, disaster, and powerful creatures—dragons, griffins, sea creatures, corruptors, and monsters—"
This information surprised Aaron.
He instantly realized that the content recorded on this lost page did not refer to events that occurred some time before the Dragon Burning Disaster.
It is even older and more ancient.
It seems to have been at the beginning of the mythological era, or even older than mythology.
An ancient god? Him?
These words made Aaron realize that perhaps he was touching upon a truth that had long been forgotten by the world.
Despite having the intelligence at his fingertips, Aaron felt as if he were not reading a rigid story.
It was as if he himself was one of the writers of this chapter.
So the question now lies with Aaron: how can he extract more information?
After a brief moment of thought, Aaron replied:
"Where did you come from?"
"The starry sky, and the boundless darkness among the stardust," Weiss replied, "at least that's how I see it."
"And who is he?" Aaron then asked.
"You're just asking the obvious, Nancy," Weiss said with a hint of exasperation. "It's the Chaos, the origin of all things, the eternal end."
Hearing this description, Aaron was surprised by the disorderers that Weiss had mentioned.
If Weiss wasn't exaggerating, then the Chaos is definitely not something ordinary people can touch.
Aaron asked, "Where?"
“Deep underground,” Weiss said, “the activity is making the whole world tremble. It’s an easy location to find by the magnitude of the tremors. Harris and I went to look for it. We only determined the location, but we didn’t dare to meet it. The risk was too great, even for me.”
Human curiosity is always the prosthetic limb that drags us into the abyss.
Aaron also strongly agreed with this.
From Weiss's tone, Aaron realized that this man was very confident in his abilities.
Aaron asked, "Do you have a plan?"
"The Sultan told me that the members of the Covenant believe that nothing should be done lightly," Weiss said, "until everything is thought out. Once the Chaos falls asleep, nothing will be able to restrain the ancient gods."
"Even if we eventually find a solution, we must still devise strategies to address the hidden dangers they left behind. The monsters will pollute the entire world. Those despicable ancient gods have actually planted germs in this world, attempting to assimilate its power and use it for their own purposes."
"Furthermore, the various wills they left behind will also corrupt all life in this world. The deep-sea races and dragons are attempting to mate with humans, and if hybrids emerge, it will greatly benefit them in stealing power from the Chaos."
Aaron could tell that Weiss's words were not spoken on a whim.
Instead, he sought Nancy's opinion only after careful consideration.
This passage also reveals a potential clue.
The Ancient Gods and the Chaos are not on the same level.
The ancient gods came to this land because of the Chaos.
Then why do the disordered exist in this land?
Despite the brief exchange, Aaron had already discerned that Weiss was a cautious man.
Perhaps he already had the answer to the question he just asked in his heart.
"If it were you, how would you solve this?" Aaron asked.
This time, Weiss shook his head: "This is too difficult. Before putting the Chaos to sleep, we must first eliminate all the hidden dangers of the Old Gods."
"Assuming they continue to establish rules, the people on this planet will only face more thorough enslavement and assimilation."
"Furthermore, the effects they have brought have already occurred and are difficult to reverse in a short time. A few who receive the blessing alone cannot deal with all evil."
"For this, Nancy, we need to empower all civilians. But as you know, this is not easy; it tests one's intuition, understanding, and talent."
"The best way to solve this problem is to simplify the process of wielding power, or to organize and summarize it."
"Oh, right, and also, in order to prevent accidents from happening, we ourselves must also master the way to directly utilize the power of the Chaos."
Upon hearing this, Aaron said:
"You mean, you want to create a power system?"
"A power system?" Weiss looked somewhat surprised. "Hmm—not a bad phrase. Okay, I'll use that, 'power system'!"
Wait!
Hearing this, Aaron finally felt something was off.
He was probably just reading the contents of the "Lost Chapters".
Therefore, the real Weiss could not have heard the words provided by Aaron.
So, in that case, this experience was just Aaron's wild imagination?
But if that's the case, then all the information he just received might be false.
Aaron had no way to verify these things.
He couldn't let his soul leave the body he was in.
I don't know how, but I stopped reading the missing chapters.
Therefore, he had no choice but to continue trying to read.
Aaron asked, "What are your thoughts on the power system?"
“Of course,” Weiss smiled, “different magical powers have different focuses. Some can be used directly, while others require a medium. Some affect the body, while others influence the soul. Based on these characteristics, the system should be established soon.”
Aaron was surprised because the current distinction between systems such as witchcraft, magic, and martial arts perfectly matched Weiss's description!
However, according to history, the establishment of the modern supernatural system began in the legendary period and was only truly perfected in the early human period.
Could it be that the power system was once lost and then reconstructed?
"By the way," Weiss said, "how about we call it the Nancy System?"
Aaron found this rather strange.
This was clearly Weiss's idea, so why use Nancy's name?
Aaron asked, "Why not call it the Weiss System?"
Weiss narrowed his eyes, staring intently at Aaron, as if he could see into Aaron's soul:
"So, who are you? Why are you possessing Nancy's body?"
