Chapter 421

"It tastes bad."

Crunching the bread in his mouth, Isaac commented on the food on the plate impolitely, with a wrinkled expression as if he were executing:

"The bread is so hard that it can break teeth. There is no salt in the potato soup. The egg paste is like a carbon cake. Wild vegetables and onions are mixed together, and this bacon... Look, it stinks. No wonder I smelled a bad smell when I first came in!"

Turning his eyes, Isaac shook a piece of bacon with his fork in front of the little wizard: "when I was locked up in eboden, I ate better than this. Dare you ask me if I'm in prison?"

"Don't eat if you don't want to!" the angry AI Yin glared at him: "this is the fortress of duanjie mountain. It's a severe winter without rear supply. It's a luxury to have such a rich dinner!"

"What the hell are you talking about? I saw it!"

Shaking his head, Isaac put on an expression of "you can't hide it from me" and stared straight at the little wizard's face: "a bottle of wine, two roast lamb chops, toast, stewed rabbit soup and black pudding - unexpectedly, I was behind you when you slipped into Loren's room!"

Holding his shoulder angrily, Isaac pushed the plate in front of Ayn: "as one of your friends, I refuse this kind of differential treatment!"

"How can this be the same?"

The cramped little wizard blushed and just bowed his head: "he was so hurt and tired... Shouldn't he eat something good to supplement nutrition?"

"... you know I almost died in the Dragon King City... Right?"

Isaac widened his eyes and couldn't be more surprised: "it's unreasonable... The three of us all came to niederhogg and escaped from death again and again. They were all so close to death - why do you think only Lauren needs special care? What about me and this precocious kid?!"

In a moment of silence, the two men looked aside almost at the same time. They were still swallowing and chewing bacon.

After a long time, Lucian turned his face sideways and was stared at by two people. He scratched his head a little embarrassed:

"Well... If there's any lamb chops, can you give me some?"

"..." Isaac.

"... in the back kitchen." Ayn.

Silently, he picked up the plate. The gray pupil with an apologetic smile got up and turned away.

With a slight sigh, the little wizard silently piled a whole stack of sheepskin scrolls on the table: "this is what you entrusted me. I have sorted out all your ideas and research plans."

"It took a lot of time, and there were so many parchments... The alchemists of duanjie mountain even gave me some of their inventory, otherwise they couldn't finish it!"

"That..."

Playing with the fork in his hand, Isaac said carelessly.

"Yes, if nothing unexpected happens, these are the results we will complete in the future - according to you, we will make these things really useful." the little wizard nodded seriously.

"Burn them all."

"What, what?"

"Burn, destroy, smash, throw, tear or give something to others. It's OK for you to keep it as a souvenir." shook his head and Isaac sighed: "anyway, these things are no longer important!"

"You... What are you talking about?!" Ayn looked at him in amazement: "these are all your efforts... And all the efforts of me and Lauren. How can..."

"It is because these things are the research results of our 'past', so they are no longer important. What is more important is the future!"

Isaac stressed very hard: "these things... Our vision is too narrow. We can't be blocked by them!"

"I don't understand!"

"Well, where don't you understand?" Isaac shrugged. "Is it 'vision' or 'narrow'?"

"Don't understand!" the little wizard stared at him angrily, with an expression of "if you don't explain clearly, you'll look good".

I can't believe I was worried about this guy!

"It seems that it will be troublesome to explain..." Isaac whispered.

"Please put it a little simpler, Isaac Grantham of genius!"

With a cold hum, AI Yin holding her shoulder pouted unhappily: "no way, who makes us not as smart as you!"

With a long sigh, Isaac's expression was very awkward... Even more awkward than before. If he insisted on explanation, he could still chat with AI Yin normally in the past, bullying small wizards and other potatoes like bullying young children

Now he is not even interested in teasing each other.

"Ayin, do you remember that mentor Dalton and Dean Peter once said that 'the void exists because it does not exist'. There are no rules and no common sense. Everything is the purest illusion. You can't contact and understand its power by experience."

"Remember, what's the matter?" the little wizard raised his eyebrows. "Are they wrong?"

"No, that's right, but the point is... I don't think they fully understand the meaning of this sentence," Isaac sighed. "Or they just understand the simple part of 'no rules'."

"The most important thing is me... I don't know how I should explain to you now! I thought I understood, but the fact is that I didn't understand at all. I just 'thought' I understood like mentor Dalton or master freswalker of eboden!"

The more he spoke, the more excited Isaac spoke faster and faster. He made up for it with a cold sweat on his forehead. He looked nervous and was about to faint and danced.

But Ayn vaguely understood: "did you find any very high-end 'mystical knowledge' in niederhogg?"

"It should be said that... Is a completely different wizard system, a system that is far more efficient than the way we are now exposed to the use of void power; by contrast, the way we use is stupid and extremely inefficient!"

"I see... Truth, ain, can you understand? I see truth!"

"Once I thought that I went to niederhogg to retrieve the lost knowledge and find the reason why Rogan, the first wizard, opened the 'wizard era'; but when I really got there, what I found was not these, what I saw was not these!"

"I see my mission... Or, what only I can do in this world, my destiny, a task that may take my whole life!"

"I wouldn't say such words before, but you can laugh at me this time... I haven't believed in any fate or 'mission' in my life. Only the priests of the Holy Cross Church will take the trouble to tell these nonsense to others, so that those unlucky people can safely believe that they will be like this in their life!"

"But now I understand... Sometimes the concept of time may not be straight forward. It is more like a huge network. Every choice you make touches the silk thread beside you; when you can see the vibration of every silk thread and the result of each choice, you will really understand what your 'mission' is!"

"Logan opened the 'wizard era', so my mission is to bring it into the 'next era' - bid farewell to inefficient spell casting and endless fear of nothingness, and really let the world look at the power they should have mastered from a rational perspective!"

"Isaac..."

"So these, and these... It's just a waste of time to continue research, and even let me go into the mire of a dead end again." playing with the scroll on the table, Isaac sighed tired:

"So I want to forget everything and start from scratch!"

"And we will transform the world!"
