Chapter 403: Creation Teaching (Part 2/2)

”You can really be the Creator?” Luo Nan was shocked. ”The magnitude of the situation is already large enough. Which world-level order is it?”

”That's the problem.” Papercut shrugged, ”I just did some searching; there is no relevant information in the database, whether it is in the Society, Xia City's military, or Xia City's government. There aren't any records of this. In other words, this is very likely a new order. A new power, a new intelligence, that has yet to enter everyone's eyes. Aren't you going to consult with the Secretary?”

Luo Nan blinked. ”Sister Yueyin? You want me to trouble her? Is this sort of situation rare?”

Papercut nodded, ”New orders have always been this structured. There are indeed very little of them. In fact, there have been very few new orders in the past few years, even with the inner world expanding larger and larger. You understand this.”

Luo Nan did indeed understand. The inner world was affecting normal society more and more. The skills of freshly trained talents such as him was enough to prove the existence of unrecognized talent.

Under this sort of circumstances, everyone held a conservative outlook when it came to a mature and high level 'new order' suddenly popping out of the woodwork.

Luo Nan was just about to contact He Yueyin when his thoughts took another turn. It was best to take this spell array and bring it to her to take a look. This could be considered a reference. He tried talking to Du Yong, ”Can you copy the spell array for me?”

”No problem.” The speed of Du Yong's response was quite suspicious.

Xie Junping filled in the gaps in explaining, ”According to Teacher's words, spiritual initiation should involve the gathering of all sorts of talents and the aid of friends. Only then can the best plan be obtained. There's no need to act mysteriously and selfishly about it.”

It seemed to be a very open order!

Luo Nan and Papercut locked gazes. Papercut asked in what seemed to be a casual manner, ”Is it convenient for you to introduce us to the teacher who brought you into all this? Perhaps we know him or her.”

Xie Junping was quite magnanimous. He didn't hold anything back, ”His last name is Wan. We all call him Dean Wan. He works for a welfare center in the Forestwall District. He's the real deal.”

This sort of intelligence acquisition made one completely lack the feeling of accomplishment.

An insight flashed through his mind right as he was shaking his head, and an image popped up in his mind. It was none other than a memory of last weekend where he controlled Ink in the Forestwall District for the reconnaissance work that was outsourced to him. Luo Nan had discovered an ability user there. That ability user was preaching, and even a little kid from the distant Trigate District had come over to listen.

Could it be the same person?

It was a messy mental association, and it was probably wrong, but the several factors—like preaching and the location being in the Forestwall District— increased the probability by several percentage points. If they were truly the same person, than his business would be far larger than previously imagined.

This was merely speculation; there wasn't hard evidence, and it was hard to explain from the special perspective of distant perception. Luo Nan didn't say much else to Papercut. He accepted the file that Du Yong sent to him and contacted He Yueyin through the HexaEar.

But all he got was a busy signal; the call didn't go through. This wasn't an odd thing. He Yueyin's busiest times of the day were at eight or nine o'clock at night. Unless it was a pressing matter, it had to be put on the back burner.

Luo Nan thought for a bit and planned a last-minute task. He pulled He Yueyin, Papercut, Xue Lei, and Cat Eyes into a group chat before sending He Yueyin a message and the file. This was a sharing between many parties.

Papercut gave the file a glance, ”Oh, it's a cloud map. This is the most suitable software for drawing the spell array. It seems like this sect isn't that closed-off. This may be good news.”

Luo Nan noticed that there was a clear icon on the file, ”The HexaEar can read it, right?”

”Of course. Such practical functions have to be integrated into it.”

Luo Nan saw Du Yong gnash his teeth toward the read-only projection, but he was unwilling to copy the file to the computer. He felt that there were some issues with this brother's brain. Still, he sighed and said, ”Forget it. Just use mine.”

He directly connected the HexaEar to the projector. There was no need to switch data streams. He simply opened it in the task window and opened the file in operation-mode. Not only did he remove the read-only limitation, he made it so that anyone could manipulate it.

He casually made a swiping motion, leaving a clear mark on the spell array. The mark stayed there. Then he erased the mark after. He played around a few times to confirm, ”You can make altercations now. You can try to recall what you did before. Search for the feeling, and let us see your train of thought. Relax. This is constantly saved.”

Luo Nan rubbed his fingers against each other half way through his words, looking thoughtful.

The feeling of light passing was quite interesting. It gave him a more direct feeling about the order and method of the operation of energy and information for the spell array. It made his once-fuzzy insights turn clear once more. He immediately became immersed in thought.

Du Yong was skeptical at first, but soon he found the instrument window of the cloud map software. His heart immediately swelled with enormous delight. He was right about to do work when he saw Mo Han and the other little sisters try working with it in their curiosity. He didn't even think before shouting,

”Don't break the template!”

His voice was admonishing to the maximal limit. Qiu Peipei, who possessed the quietest nature, took a step back in shock, not daring to speak a word.

Mo Han wasn't scared of him. She was mad that he frightened her friend, so she spoke disdainfully, ”There's a rollback operation. What are you afraid of?”

Du Yong really had been shocked by his bad memories. He shook his head over and over. In these sort of times, he greatly rejected anyone who wasn't a professional.

It was impossible to communicate with someone this neurotic. Papercut was very clear on this point. He turned to look at the group of boys and girls, ”Why don't you guys go play? Us professional enthusiasts can just talk things over in this room.”

Mo Han looked at him with bulging eyes, ”Hello? Are you trying to get rid of us?”

Papercut wasn't the sort of person to go bickering with a little girl. He turned to ask Luo Nan, ”How about we switch locations first?”

He felt that data migration and the like should be easy with the HexaEar. It couldn't be simpler. Logically, if they were able to separate the people, then they can talk more about on other subjects.

But he saw Luo Nan focused once more on the spell array when he turned back to look. Luo Nan didn't look like he was going to break his concentration any time soon, turning a deaf ear to Papercut. Papercut was helpless, he could only give Luo Nan a light tap.

”Huh? Oh, hold on.” It wasn't easy to get Luo Nan out of his trance this time. Luo Nan spoke a few random words, his gaze still parked upon the spell array structure. He even extended a hand to touch.

Du Yong's patience was much higher toward this 'fellow practitioner'. He was especially delighted at Luo Nan's concentration. He harbored some expectations and couldn't help asking, ”Do you have any insights?”

”Yes, I have an idea. I feel that this spell array is lacking a bit of texture.”

”Which one?”

”Texture. Matter. A sense of being real.” Luo Nan needed to converse with someone. He formulated his words as he observed, ”If you view the spell array as a building, then the structure and lines could be viewed as rooms and pipelines. This template of yours is like a blueprint. There's no material. There's no filler stuff. It's just like a hologram.”

Luo Nan omitted something from his words; last time Huang's spell array had a physical medium, at the very least. His spell array was essentially on a higher level than this one.

This was the difference in the spell arrays.

And this difference wasn't due to a difference in the knowledge of mystic arts. Du Yong was the former president of the Mystic Arts Research Society. He was better than that Huang guy who didn't really know what he was doing.
