I upgraded and added points in the Holy Inquisition

Although this page of forbidden knowledge is a bit too safe, it is brand new content that Lloyd has not been exposed to before——

What is described above is the development history of this system [Distortion].

It doesn't involve any substantive knowledge, but it can actually bring mental pollution?

Lloyd was a little surprised by this.

But he has always been curious about his system. Who discovered this system that was obviously not prepared for humans? How to practice and explore? This is a question that has been bothering me for a long time.

So he didn't mind that the knowledge was too basic, and he still watched and learned it very seriously.

As for the development history of this page, a simple overview is probably——

A person goes crazy and becomes stronger...

Although this simple record does not mention what kind of foundation this person has, even the name has been erased, and only the words '■■■■' can be seen.

Lloyd had no choice but to call him Cube Man in his heart...

And this square man lived in the glorious era of the past, but he was not a [brilliant gold], but a mediocre person with the third level of fighting power. Because he was not talented in all aspects, he could only engage in the research of paleontology.

Later, during an excavation of paleontological fossils, he unexpectedly gained the power of [Distortion], just like the situation when Lloyd completed [Enlightenment].

He was still in the era of 'sword and magic' at that time, and there was no term 'extraordinary' at all, let alone any 'extraordinary system', so in a sense, this cube man should be the first A transcendent person by the modern definition.

After completing [Enlightenment], Cube Man seemed to have suddenly enlightened, with all kinds of knowledge in his mind, and began to follow the guidance of this knowledge to gradually improve and become stronger.

In that beautiful era when there was no spiritual pollution, relying on the various magics and technologies at that time, the rituals of the [Distortion] system did not seem so dangerous. At most, they were just a bit curious and disgusting.

So apart from the fact that the cube man's mental state is getting worse and crazier, he is also living a good life.

Moreover, his strength also skyrocketed in a short period of time, and he was soon able to defeat the most powerful mages or warriors one-on-one. Later, even [Brilliant Gold] was no match for him.

His situation immediately aroused the curiosity and attention of many [Brilliant Golds], so they took advantage of his madness, set up an ambush, and captured him alive after paying a high price.

After that came various investigations and studies, as well as inhumane experiments, and the first [distortion] came into being.

After that, many strong men and scholars continued to get involved in it, gradually perfecting it, and optimistically believed that this new power had the possibility to change the destiny of mankind and bring about a new future.

Before they could get more results, the doomsday catastrophe suddenly came, and mental pollution began to spread...

The originally safe and calm 'knowledge' has begun to become restless and dangerous, and can be 'airborne' without a carrier in a way that humans cannot understand.

It is precisely with this wave of drastic changes in the environment of the times that [distortion] related research that could have been carried out quickly turned into dangerous suicide behavior.

Even the knowledge related to it has all become terrifying taboo knowledge...

Those who have been involved in it quickly fall into madness under the influence of mental pollution...

At the same time, because of the death of those [bright gold] at the speed of light, mankind has lost its most powerful support and is completely unable to resist this change.

After that, with the death of the last relevant person, the development and improvement of [Distortion] completely stopped.

The entire system seems to have been 'banned'...

It was not until many years later, with some 'archaeological', 'retro' and other activities, as well as the 'spread of knowledge', that [Distortion] was able to see the light of day again.

When Lloyd saw this, he paused temporarily and sorted out some information in his mind.

It turns out that [Distortion] is a power born in the past era? So, [Distortion] is the first extraordinary system that humans have come into contact with?

I always thought that the first set of extraordinary systems was [redemption]...

So no wonder the intensity of [Distortion] appears to be so unbalanced, and no wonder it is so capable of causing death——

This is all because no one can study it anymore, so it is naturally impossible to optimize and improve it. The content of 'seeking death' and 'suicide' is still retained, making [Distortion] completely incompatible with the current era. Version.

Without the support of magic, fighting spirit, and even magic technology and alchemy technology from the glorious era, this system would be completely unsuitable for humans to get involved.

Uh...wait a minute, that doomsday catastrophe, could it be related to [Distortion]?

Lloyd couldn't help but think of a very bad possibility...

But he immediately made up for himself in his heart:

It shouldn't be like this. The time doesn't match up at all. From the time when the Cube Man was captured by the strong man and used to conduct research, to the time when the catastrophe came, although there is no clear time in between, judging from various descriptions, it is at least hundreds of years. time.

Although [Distortion] seems to be 'banned', [Distortion] is not the only one who has been banned. Isn't it the same with other ancient knowledge, becoming taboo knowledge?

But in comparison, although knowledge like [Ancient Magic] has become very dangerous, 'magic' itself was the mainstream core of that era, and it has been improved and completed by countless people over the years. Optimization is completely different from the 'upstart' like [Distortion].

Therefore, the key to the doomsday catastrophe should lie in the direction of why knowledge becomes dangerous and causes spiritual pollution.

After all, why can something as conceptual as 'knowledge' be separated from the records of the carrier, spread inexplicably on its own, run around, and even take the initiative to get into other people's heads? Obviously there was no such thing in the glorious era...

As soon as Lloyd's thoughts came to this point, there was a beating of gongs and drums in his mind, reminding him to prepare for the banquet.

And this time, even the inspiration got involved and it was a joy.

This shows that the danger of this issue is not limited to ancient related aspects.

Uh... don't think about it anymore, I was wrong, I was wrong...

He shook his head vigorously, then raised his head again and looked at the incorporeal Professor Hazred.

"Have you finished reading? How do you feel?"

"Fortunately, although there are some doubts that I dare not think about..."

"That's the Book of Truth protecting you, don't disobey it."

Professor Hazlade reminded, and then returned to the topic:

"As for the origin of [Distortion], it's not just as simple as the summary on this page. It's just that more of the content has been lost, making this already imperfect system even more fragmented."

"Uh...will the missing parts...come to me on their own?"

Lloyd asked bravely.

"I hope you don't encounter this kind of thing, and I hope Hiltina can help you resist this kind of thing."
