The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 601: Amber Of Knowledge

Chapter 601: Amber Of Knowledge

It was the “other-worldly” level occult knowledge written by the Motherly Moth herself.
“…Did you just say [Key]?”
Annan couldn’t help but get curious, “Is it something like [dream key]?”
Suppose the “dream key” was used to enter a nightmare…
“Then, is there only one copy of “Dream Egg”?”
“The “Dream Egg” is a series written by the Motherly Moth. It’s about the Motherly Moth’s secrets.”
Pope Benjamin whispered to Annan in the shoe of the Man in the Mirror, “It records a dream that the Motherly Moth had. However, generally speaking, deities don’t dream. They don’t even need to sleep.”
The answer was clear already.
“Is it about the world beyond the dreams?”
Annan asked probingly.
Did the Motherly Moth sneak into the depths of the dream world and even enter other worlds beyond the dream world?
Does that mean that the Motherly Moth can enter the players’ world?
Can other deities do this?
“That’s right.”
Benjamin replied briefly, “Walking in the depths of the dream world is the racial ability of the Motherly Moth.”
“She used Her authority to solidify the occult knowledge that recorded a certain part of other worlds into pieces of amber. It’s just like the condensation process of soul and light.”
“It seems to exist in the form of books, but that is on the surface level. Books, like stone tablets and clay tablets, are ‘solidified knowledge’. Compared with stone tablets or clay tablets, it has a certain degree of secrecy.”
“It’s like an amber that seals moths.”
Pope Benjamin explained.
We could appreciate the trapped moth inside the amber by holding it up to a light source without shattering it.
There was “no need to read” this book.
There were no words in it.
As long as it was “opened”, knowledge would naturally flow into the mind.
“Since it’s an ‘other world’, using the words from this world to describe it will create misinterpretation and inaccuracy.”
Benjamin explained, “Since it’s a direct transfer into the soul, it is natural that considerations for individual tolerance to constrain transmission speed are not taken into account. In a sense, it becomes screening barrier to select for ‘qualified’ individuals becomes a screening barrier.”
Even within the same cultural sphere, there could be special cases where “something could not be translated.” This was especially true for proprietary terms with unique historical backgrounds, where understanding the context was necessary to comprehend the meaning of the words themselves.
The barrier extended across the world.
If a word were translated, a greater fallacy would appear.
Just like the “nickname” of players, it had been just “pronunciation” all the time. The players naturally understood this world’s words and characters when they talked and read books. However, this did not apply to nicknames. Whether the aboriginal people read the players’ nicknames or the players read the aboriginals’ names, no translation would be given.
Nicknames and names carried much information.
Even when entering servers in other countries, the user would not understand the nicknames. Similarly, when you hear a foreigner’s name, you would not understand what it means.
Under Benjamin’s explanation, Annan quickly understood the Motherly Moth’s approach.
It was similar to Annan’s Book of Divine Transporter but slightly different.
The Motherly Moth collected the intelligence and information of that other world in depth and made a “copy of another world”, which was saved in the format of a “book”. It was different from the traditional concept of nightmare in this world.
It wouldn’t be fair to force everyone who opened this book to be drawn into that world. That would be akin to murder. The strength of the soul required to traverse dream realms and reach the depths of the dream world was something only transcended above the Gold Rank could achieve.
Only a soul dyed in color could enter the dream world without getting lost.
Then, the Motherly Moth allowed the people, who opened this book, to enter another world via a traditional dream format.
That otherworld had been “sampled” by the Motherly Moth.
She eliminated all irrelevant, disruptive clues. What was left was the backbone, which could also be understood as the main plot.
In simpler terms, the Motherly Moth used the knowledge of other worlds to create “single-player games” one after another.
This made Annan immediately think of himself.
In a sense, Annan’s Book of Divine Transporter was similar to “Dream Egg”!
The players also entered other worlds in dreams. The difference was that what Annan was doing was online games. There was multiplayer, and the timeline of the main world proceeded as usual. The “expansion pack” was constantly changing.
The “Dream Egg” the Motherly Moth created utilized other worlds as themes to make single-player games that would no longer be updated and produce DLC.
“Ordinary people… especially ritualists whose souls had not been condensed, it was impossible for them to enter other worlds through the dream world. “Dream Egg” provided this possibility. Of course, it was only a possibility. “
Benjamin said, “They can also be called the ‘otherworldly level’ nightmare. A nightmare that is at a higher level and more dangerous than the ‘twisted level’. If you die in it, you are dead.”
“To prevent “Dream Egg” from becoming a murderer’s weapon, it can only be used to ‘clear the level once’ or ‘enter ten times’. The “Dream Egg” cannot be used permanently.”
“That’s why the “Dream Egg” usually has rigorous entry conditions. If the conditions are not met, the soul will be crushed and killed when an abundance of otherworldly-level occult knowledge is poured into the soul. It will damage the entry count too.”
“But, you just said that ritualists can also use “Dream Egg”?”
Annan asked suspiciously, “The ritualist’s soul strength should be about the same as that of Husky? Husky even used Justice’s body at the time, but the moment he opened this book, he was killed by its occult knowledge.”
“It requires a certain intensity of ritual protection, much like safeguarding the soul in a nightmare.”
Benjamin explained, “There aren’t many powers that can transcend the rules of this world. Aside from the occult knowledge above the otherworldly level, we only have the power of elements and the Book of Truth. Therefore, if the user can’t even use the protective ritual built by the otherworldly level of knowledge, then he is not ‘qualified to use this curse vessel’.”
Thus, the ritualists needed to obtain occult knowledge above the otherworldly level to build a self-protection ritual and then open this book to receive a new otherworldly level of occult knowledge.
Hearing Benjamin’s words, Annan’s expression was a little subtle.
In a trance, he thought of “What should I do if I can’t beat the BOSS”, “Let’s upgrade”, “But I need to fight the BOSS to level up”, “Then go and fight the BOSS”, “But I can’t beat the BOSS”, “Go upgrade!” emoticon package.
“Among other things, it requires ‘initial purification progress’.”
“Initial purification progress?”
“It is the purification progress when entering the nightmare for the first time in the last three months. This is the primary data that priests will be assessed when they advance to a bishop.”
“The nightmare at the otherworldly level is dangerous. All lower-level powers in this world are ineffective. The nightmare purifier can’t utilize any transcended power of the target world, nor can they call upon divine intervention to escape. Mr. Ray’s intervention of dispelling a nightmare and freeing the person inside won’t activate. You can only leave after accomplishing the objectives in the dungeon. Your death in the nightmare carries on into this world.”
“So even if you can bear this occult knowledge, it’s a trial version of ‘acquiring this knowledge’. If you want to enter another world to obtain the full version, you must reach the ‘initial purification progress’ within the last three months for more than 90%.”
Obviously, Trisino Seti was not a good candidate for it.
He might hold occult knowledge at the otherworldly level.
However, only if the initial purification progress reached more than 90%… Unless he could purify it in one fell swoop, then he would succeed. It was unlikely for him to achieve that.
“So he probably hasn’t had time to use this “Dream Egg”.”
Benjamin concluded, “However, this is also expected. Not everyone gets the “Dream Egg” to enter another world… The curse vessel that can continuously produce the otherworldly level occult knowledge is valuable.”
“For example, it can be used to assassinate the enemy.”
“If you can, why not?” Benjamin asked back.
Annan thought to himself. Oh, that makes sense.
I am convinced.
Annan thought.
