Wizard: Unlimited Profession Slots Chapter 1326 - 526: Chronicle of the Ages (Part 4)

"After all, if you don’t understand the enemy’s attack patterns, you can’t formulate effective defense strategies.

And to understand the pollution mechanism, you must observe the complete pollution process."

But this understanding does not mean agreement.

"The extreme of rationality is often the annihilation of humanity."

Ron frowned but felt accustomed to it.

This kind of thing he had seen far too often in the Wizard Society:

"When humans are completely objectified as experimental materials, any bottom line is shattered by ’scientific value.’"

The second layer of the image revealed even more chilling details:

Sarlin’s painful struggles were regarded as "precious research data" by the experimenters;

Her pleas for help to friends were interpreted as "a typical behavioral pattern of pollution spread";

Even her final human struggles were recorded as "phase characteristics of consciousness structure collapse."

In the last part of the experimental record, Ron saw this summary:

"Experiment 027 achieved anticipated results.

Through comparative analysis, we confirmed the three key stages of Abyssal contamination: incubation period, active period, spread period.

It is recommended that relevant data be applied to new Protective Rune design, which is expected to improve pollution detection accuracy to 92.7%..."

Just as Ron prepared to delve further, a strong crisis premonition suddenly surged from the depths of his soul.

[Blessing of the Apocalypse] began to flash warning signals frantically, [Crisis Premonition] also warned in sync.

A deeper layer of the image was slowly emerging, seemingly involving higher-level existence and layout.

At the same time, a malicious gaze from the depths of dimensions began to lock onto his consciousness coordinates.

"Enough, darling! Quickly retreat!"

Nari’s voice exploded in his mind, filled with urgency:

"If you go further, some entities that shouldn’t detect your presence will find you!"

Ron did not hesitate and immediately terminated the historical infiltration process.

When he reopened his eyes, his forehead was already soaked in cold sweat.

"Just now... what would have happened if I continued?"

He asked with lingering fear.

"You would be erased." Aselia’s voice was unusually heavy:

"Some secrets are known equals to death."

"However, your harvest this time is already enough."

Nari’s tone returned to being gentle:

"The multiplicity of history, the layering of truth... These understandings are valuable wealth for you."

"The key is, you now understand an important fact."

Aselia added:

"In this world, there is no absolute objective history, only narrations serving different purposes.

Learning to identify the intentions behind these versions is an essential skill for survival."

Ron nodded in profound agreement.

...

After the historical infiltration completely ended, Ron found it hard to calm his heart for a long time.

His finger unconsciously caressed the dial of the Silver Pocket Watch, with the mind still echoing the shocking discovery just now.

"Power can indeed rewrite the past..."

Ron gazed at the Silver Pocket Watch in his hand, feeling an unprecedented desire surging within:

"This ability is simply like..."

He recalled the concept from his favorite animation in his previous life—"Chronicle of Ages."

It was a treasure that could modify historical records, and whenever the holder altered its content, reality would change accordingly.
