The Righteous Player(s) Chapter 447: Isaac Flamel

Once Annan started thinking about it.

His wisdom turned into a sharp blade, cutting through the gaps in memory. Many hidden truths are revealed before our eyes——

The **** who modified the memory of "Nicholas II" but did not delete it completely was Yaweng's **** Father Stone.

Then the problem comes.

——Why him?

Shi's father was a sculptor during his lifetime. In an era when there was no "idol school", he mastered the "magic power in sculpture" and was considered half an idol wizard.

But he has not mastered the skills of the Soul Seizing School, and has never held powers related to memory and dreams.

So, why is Father Shi carrying out this task?

Is it really impossible for him to clear the memory of Nicholas II?

Or...

Is it true that only he can make the poisonous dust sent by Hermes?

Annan might have recognized this reason before.

But now, Annan peeked into Nicholas's inner memory and finally knew one thing.

Why is Nicholas called Hermes II? Why is he the only one who can produce many ancient products of the Hermetic School?

This is not because of his outstanding talents.

But because...the stone tablets recording these products happen to be things that only the highest-level "Lord of the Tower" can view and learn!

"...Nicholas Flamel ignited his soul and advanced to gold more than a hundred years ago. But at that time, he did not succeed as the master of the tower...it was another year after that. After many years, he suddenly became the son of the tower and succeeded to the position of tower master at an extremely fast speed."

This is the story Salvatore told Annan about this "Hermes II" a long time ago.

Looking back now, Annan should have noticed the real problem as early as this time...

The so-called son of the tower is the one with the highest talent among all apprentices, and his talent must be better than that of the tower master himself. All wizard towers maintain their own updates through this method.

At that time, why was he not the master of the tower?

This can be seen from the elements of his awakening.

He hoped that he would awaken the element of [wisdom] or [understanding], but he did not.

This is actually unreasonable.

Because he was born in Jade Tower... Jade Tower itself is a tower of knowledge, and all wizard towers hold the most orthodox inherited knowledge:

In the formal inheritance method, you can "dye" your soul and modify your own innate element tendencies by piling up a large amount of high-level mysterious knowledge in the same field when advancing to gold.

Because the aborigines of this world do not have a system panel like Annan and can see their own elemental tendencies.

Before they change jobs, they cannot be sure what elements they will awaken.

If you are a warrior with the element of compassion, or a wizard with the element of courage, then the problem will be big.

And if there is no artificial coloring.

——Then the element attribute they awakened is the "desire" itself that drives them to advance to gold.

You can see it from here.

When Nicholas was promoted to gold, he did not discuss it with anyone at all - especially his mentor. His extremely strong desire to "win" can even push him to advance to gold and complete dyeing.

At that time, his talent was not enough to make him a son of the tower.

Later, he suddenly became the son of the tower - and succeeded him as the tower's master.

There can only be one reason for this.

I am afraid that he used the elements of victory... to attack the tower owner.

As for this speculation, Annan was able to confirm it after a little search in Nicholas' memory——

At that time, there were only two gold-level extraordinary people in the Jade Tower.

One is Nicholas.

The other one is Nicholas Flamel's teacher and adoptive father - Isaac Flamel, the previous generation's tower master.

Although Nicholas did not like his father, his father had actually taken care of him. He was sent to the Jade Tower instead of somewhere else because he had a relative with the same surname of "Flamel", right here in the Jade Tower.

After Nicholas entered the Jade Tower in his third year and expressed his talent, he was accepted as an apprentice by Isaac Flamel. But in fact, before that, he was also secretly cared for by the Lord of the Tower.

Nicholas has been thoughtful since he was a child.

He has never exposed his unflattering side...he concentrates on absorbing all the knowledge he can come into contact with, and keeps in mind the ideas passed down by the Jade Tower.

As a result, he gradually gained Isaac's recognition.

Things changed when he communicated with Isaac shortly after he advanced to silver——

"...first I have to tell you."

Isaac replied: "There is no 'perfect thing' in this world."

The young Flamel replied firmly: "Because of this, we must sublimate everything in the world to a state of perfection - this is the concept that our Jade Tower has inherited to this day, isn't it?"

"Maybe it was before."

Isaac sighed: "But I don't think so anymore."

"...why?"

Flamel asked in disbelief.

Isaac turned around and replied calmly: "Because this world needs ordinary.

“Not everything has to be perfect, this is a goal that can never be achieved... because there is no ‘perfect’ in this world, only ‘better’.”

"Can't even the Philosopher's Stone be called perfect?"

"That's right."

Issac's emerald-green pupils shone with the brilliance of reason: "Even the immortal gods, the boundless starry sky above their heads, and the earth under their feet, which breeds many lives and buries many dead bodies, are far from being called For perfection.

"We follow perfection only because of our own imperfections. We will regard everything that is 'more perfect' than us as a great thing... Only by walking in that direction can we continue to sublimate ourselves. .

"It's like walking towards a lighthouse in a dark wilderness. But we are not really going to reach that lighthouse... because wandering in this dark sea of ​​truth is itself a kind of happiness."

"But~IndoMTL.com~Although Nicholas was shocked by the idea that "gods are not perfect", he still subconsciously retorted, "If perfection is a trend, then as long as we keep moving forward, Perfection can be achieved. ”

“But we can’t keep moving forward, because we will one day regress.”

"Then...what if they regress and fall?"

"Then get up again. After awakening from failure, we will become stronger...One day, they will forget the lessons learned from this failure and enter a darker night. But they also You will wake up again."

Issac shook his head and said calmly: "That's how history is. History is an upward spiral. It has a rising period, and it must have a falling period; just like the sun rises, it will set.

"The things we develop, the truths we discover, may one day be lost in the future. But in the further future, people will continue to move forward among our corpses... This is what it means to be human, This is also the meaning of history."

I heard this from my adoptive father and respected mentor.

A vague idea came to Nicholas's mind.

But at this time, he had not realized... what he had realized.

He just asked subconsciously.

"So... what if history stops falling?

"If the world will continue to get better, then can we achieve 'infinite perfection'?"
