The goddess of creation paused for a moment when she saw the stuff inside the box.
Rheia did not expect to see those things. She blinked, trying to find any trace of a joke from Hao Ren’s face, but she was bound for disappointment.
“Are you… serious? That’s what can boost my strength quickly?”
Hao Ren bent down and took out the books as well as teaching materials from the box. “Look, this is about divinity, this is about controlling one’s own power, and this is about the interpretation of the rules of the world as well as the interpretation of the laws of the gods. While these are about the science of creation and the science of destruction. You can make up for all your deficiencies here. Your overall strength will increase by at least 50%. I would not kid you. Knowledge is power!”
“I know knowledge is power, but…” Rheia took a thick leather book, which Hao Ren had handed to her, as she grunted. The book’s title was written in unknown words, but because of its divine power, the book’s message could be presented without words. Hence, she could easily understand the meaning of the title. “An Introduction to the Dismantling and Reassembling of Laws… What the hell is this…”
She opened the book as she spoke, and the power in the book was instantly released. The vast amount of information compressed and contained in the pages was immediately appeared before her eyes. Rheia’s expression froze at this moment. She held the book like she was petrified, enduring the baptism of knowledge she had never come into contact with before until Hao Ren waved in front of her eyes.
“Hey, hey, wake up. How’s it? Now, do you see why knowledge is power?”
“This…This…” Rheia stammered. “Is all this true? Can knowledge be expressed so clearly? The knowledge can actually be summed up to this extent?”
“I have seen only a small part of it, and I am not a god, so I cannot say how much weight the knowledge has. But one thing is certain: it is all accumulated, summed up, and fabricated by countless gods over countless years. It’s that simple and clear.”
Rheia blinked and sank herself back into the big book, feeling very excited. “Yes, it’s that simple and clear! These things… I’ve thought about these before, but it’s vague, and many of them had happened to me before, but I never thought they could be explained in this way… That’s amazing! Where did you get these treasures? These are priceless…”
“My boss got them from a second-hand book market. Although she told me that these are imported advanced textbooks, I found a small advertisement for wholesale second-hand books in the box,” Hao Ren explained.
“Huh?”
“Don’t be so surprised. I told you there are endless worlds out there and three ancient god families… These gods have summed up their life experience. I hope you don’t mind if I speak frankly. Your place is really like a remote village in the void, and you haven’t received a proper education, which is why you were easily defeated by the Mad Lord…”
“Haha… So it’s my fault I live in a remote village…” Rheia looked awkward.
“Ahem, you don’t have to care about that. Although you live in a remote place, you still have a lot of potential. You see, you built the Weaves of Destiny without going to school, which is quite extraordinary…” Hao Ren tried to lighten the atmosphere.
“Haha… So it’s my fault I didn’t go to school…”
“How could it be your fault? There’s nothing you can do. Your background is actually quite extraordinary. Do you know where you come from?”
He finally put an end to Rheia’s complaints. The goddess felt that the greatest mystery of her life was her origin. It all began the moment she opened her eyes on the sea of the Star of Creation. This question had always been lingering in her mind.
“Where did I come from? You know the answer?”
