My Fusion System: Fusing a Thousand Chickens at the Start

Chapter 433: Fusing The God of Knowledge’s Book of Wisdom

The Great Library was located in the center of the Royal Academy. The entire library was a spiral-shaped tower that pierced through the clouds. There were no windows on top of it, and the only thing that was exposed was a large door at the bottom. The large door was filled with an intense magical aura. It was as if thousands of different types of enchantments had been constructed using different types of magic. Even diamond-tier experts would not be able to destroy it in a short period.

Furthermore, once it was forcefully destroyed, the books in the library would be automatically destroyed.

Standing in front of the library, Watson sighed at the grandeur of the library. He took out the golden key from his neck and inserted it into the door in front of him. With the sound of a machine expanding, the many magical enchantments in front of Watson slowly squirmed and formed a translucent door in the air.

Watson and Amon followed the translucent door into the library. As soon as they entered, Amon could not help but exclaim, “So, this is what the library is like.”

The interior of the library looked completely different from the outside. The air was filled with water, but it did not feel suffocating at all. Streams emerged from the library’s depths; those water streams seemed to have the effect of nourishing books. The spiral-shaped stairs around them were piled on both sides with shelves filled with all kinds of books. Many of them were clearly over a hundred years old, but they still would not decay.

Above the water streams, sky-blue whales slowly glided by, emitting a deep and pleasant sound. It made people sink into the beautiful sound and relax their bodies and minds.

There was no one in the entire library except for Watson and Amon, making it seem empty and lonely.

“As expected of the library that the kingdom has expanded for hundreds of years. The number of books in it is almost uncountable with the naked eye. There are as many as the stars in the sky. I think many people in the kingdom would not be able to finish reading even if they spent their entire lives here.”

Watson looked at the books around him and sighed. For others, they might not be able to finish reading the books in their entire lives, but it was not the case for him.

“Young Master Watson, which book should we start with?”

Amon rubbed his fists and asked Watson excitedly. He was not a person who liked to learn but seeing so many books, he could not help but be stimulated to learn. Furthermore, as Watson’s subordinate, he had to fill himself up to help Watson constantly.

“We don’t need to read the books here.”

“Don’t need to? What do you mean?”

Amon did not understand. Why did Watson go to the Great Library if not to read?

“What I mean is that those books seem too laborious. It’s better to read them all in one go.”

Watson chuckled and raised his right hand. He aimed at all the books in the library and said, “Fusion system, activate.”

The entire library shook. The books that were as numerous as the stars in the sky also trembled. They turned into streams of light and converged in the air.

Among those books, there were ordinary books that carried stories. Some books recorded magic or fighting techniques; some of them were even of gold-tier quality. The result of the fusion between those books was unpredictable.

[Congratulations, Master, on merging a large number of books. You have obtained the God of Knowledge’s Book of Wisdom, a peak starlight-tier tool.]

With the sound of the system notification, all the glowing books in front of Watson disappeared; in their place was a book. It had a gold cover and a silver chain between the covers. Its surface was covered with mysterious symbols.

The book floated in mid-air for a while before landing in Watson’s hand. The chain around the book broke with a click, and the book began to flip, revealing a series of strange glowing words. It seemed to be a language system that was even older than the Loen language. Watson could not understand those words, but he could understand their meaning.

The moment those words appeared, bright illusions suddenly burst forth from them. Those illusions included the sun, the moon, the stars, and the battle between the winged angels and the blood-soaked demons. The scenes and experiences were all very immersive. Only Amon, a platinum-tier elite, was trembling because of the strange phenomenon that appeared in the book.

Watson noticed that and quickly closed the book. Specific information appeared in his eyes.

[Starlight-tier peak holy relic: God of Knowledge’s Book of Wisdom.]

[Effects: Omniscience (everything that happens in the world or recorded in the book is recorded in it. As long as you ask, you will get the answer you want), Omnipercipience (everything you want to know can be presented in the form of true history in the book).]

[Additional abilities: Knowledge and Wisdom Kingdom (a kingdom made up of books, the host can freely change the settings of the books in the kingdom), True Creation (the creature in the book is projected into the real world and has full memories and abilities from when it was alive, the number of summons is linked to the host’s strength, and it is immune to physical damage).]

“As expected of the kingdom’s Great Library, all the books combined gave me an additional peak starlight-tier item! This book might not be as powerful as the other two tools in terms of attack, but it has greater use in certain areas.”

Watson held the book of wisdom in his hand and revealed an expression of extreme joy.

For example, in terms of information acquisition, that book had an irreplaceable use.

The reason gods were powerful was because they had a better understanding of the rules between heaven and earth. The more they understood the nature of power, the more invincible they would be. Therefore, it was not an exaggeration to call the gods omniscient and omnipotent. Even if Watson had not mastered Omniscience, it was at least equivalent to mastering half of the gods’ abilities.

“Let’s try the book’s Omniscience ability. Let’s see if it really knows everything.”

Watson could not help but ask in his heart, ‘I want to know what King Landhar III is doing at the moment. Let me see it in an omniscient way. Can you do it?’

The book in front of him suddenly made a sound. An illusory shadow appeared in front of him. It was King Landhar III’s bedroom, which Watson had been to before. It looked very familiar.

King Landhar III was standing in front of the desk in the bedroom. He seemed to be sizing something up.

“I can really see it!”

Unfortunately, he could only see an illusory scene, he could not hear what King Landhar III was saying. That was because the Book of Wisdom only had vision, not sound.

However, seeing was enough for Watson. “Book of Wisdom, zoom in on where King Landhar III is. Let me see what he is doing right now.”

Following his command, the Book of Wisdom zoomed in, and Watson saw an indescribable scene.

There was a magical array carved with scarlet paint, and there seemed to be a person lying on it. At a certain moment, King Landhar III turned his body, and Watson finally saw who was on the magical array.

There were three people lying on the ground, and Watson was familiar with all of them. They were the three contestants from the Winter Nation who had gone to the capital to participate in the competition. They were Ash, Harold, and Douglas. At that moment, the three contestants were lying on the ground silently. A sticky, squirming black sphere sealed their mouths. They seemed to be dead.

Meanwhile, King Landhar III circled the three people. His palm was placed on his chin, and he kept stroking it. His brows were furrowed as if he had encountered a complex problem.

The scene came to an abrupt stop. Watson was panting and breaking out in cold sweat. Besides him, Amon’s expression was also unsightly. “Young Master Watson, what’s going on? That’s the King just now, right? What is he doing? Why are the three people from the Winter Nation appearing by his side? It’s rumored that they had left the capital with their envoys. The magical array beneath the King’s feet also looks very evil. Could there be a conspiracy behind all of that?”

“You might be right, but why did the King kill them secretly and leave their corpses behind? It seems like I need to summon their projections to ask them about it.”

Watson’s eyes narrowed. Fortunately, he had fused with the peak starlight-tier tool after going to the library. Otherwise, he might not have known that the King was plotting behind the scenes.

After making up his mind, Watson injected energy into the Book of Wisdom. The book immediately flipped open, and soon, a large number of words lit up. The figures of Ash, Douglas, and Harold changed from illusory to real when they appeared in the library.

Their bodies were almost no different from reality. When they first appeared, they looked back nervously, as if someone was chasing after them. Harold gritted his teeth and said, “Princess, Douglas, you have to leave quickly! You must stop the conspiracy. The destruction of the Dragonspine Snow Mountain was a trap set by the Holy Dragon Kingdom. They wanted the Winter Nation to send troops to attack them. I can’t do it anymore. You have to tell them this news.”

“Harold, I’ll stay with you. One messenger is enough,” Douglas said.

“No, you two go. I’ll stay! Your strength is not enough to fight against the Holy Dragon Kingdom’s assassins. I can delay them until you leave the capital. They have killed our envoys. Don’t let them die for nothing!”

Ash did not listen to the other two. Instead, she shouted anxiously. She raised her hand and was about to use her combat aura to tie up Harold and Douglas before throwing them out.

At that moment, she realized that something was wrong. She was in a location that was neither in the capital nor her memories. It looked quite unfamiliar. Even the people who were chasing after them had disappeared.

Ash saw Watson and Amon in front of her. She revealed an expression of disbelief. “Watson, why are you here? And where is here?”

“This is the Royal Academy’s Great Library, the gathering place of all the knowledge in the Holy Dragon Kingdom. As for why you are here, it’s because I used the power of that Book of Wisdom to summon your projections when you were alive.”

“I see. I remember now. We’re already dead.”

Ash closed her eyes and sank into her memories. Suddenly, her expression became a little melancholic.

“Watson, what’s the point of summoning us now? We’re already dead. Don’t tell me you’re planning to extract information about the Winter Nation from us. I advise you to give up. We won’t say a word.” Douglas pushed up his monocle fiercely. It was as if he was venting his anger on Watson.

“You don’t have to worry. I’m not in cahoots with the King who killed you! And you’ll definitely tell me what I want to know.”

Watson waved the book in his hand. Douglas still wanted to refute, but his mouth was sealed by an invisible force, making it impossible for him to retort.

“Watson, regardless of whether you are with King Landhar III or not, you went to great lengths to summon us when we were alive. Just tell us what you want to ask,” Harold said in a low voice. “Anyway, we were unable to resist your power when we were alive, let alone after we died.”

Watson nodded and asked, “I want to ask you what you experienced before your death, why King Landhar III killed you, and what was his plan?”

“Watson, that’s what you want to know?” Ash had a mocking expression on her face. “Then let’s talk about it bit by bit. First of all, before we died, we saw no less than 50 assassins sent by the King. Those assassins were at least peak gold-tier, and their methods were even more terrifying. Some people poisoned us, and some dug large pits on the road we were about to pass. The pits were filled with sharp blades made of anti-magic materials. Even if I were a diamond-tier elite, I still would not be able to escape it. The two envoys who escorted us died because of that.”

“As for the King’s plan, I only found out about it after he captured us! Before I tell you, Watson, I have to remind you that your king is at the peak of the diamond tier. He might not be weak compared to you. I’ve always heard that the strongest person in the Holy Dragon Kingdom is Sword Saint Reid, but now it seems it should be your king instead.”

Watson could not help but frown. “Are you sure?”

He had thought about that. With the help of the seven gods, King Landhar III might not be as weak as the rumors said, but he also did not expect him to be so powerful. He had such powerful strength, but he pretended to be an ordinary person. He was too cunning!

“I can see the contours of all the energy in the world. For that, I can’t see the colors that ordinary people can see, so I am not mistaken! Not only does he possess the strength of a peak diamond-tier elite, but his body also contains something even more evil. Compared to the strength that you and Augustus displayed in the competition, it’s even more terrifying.”

“Let’s not talk about that for now. Let’s talk about King Landhar III’s plan.”

Watson did not signal for Ash to continue. He was stronger than Watson and Augustus. That must be the power of a true God, like Nia. It was not strange that King Landhar III, who had made a deal with the seven gods, had such a level of power in his body. Hearing that, he had already vaguely guessed that Ash and the other two had died in the royal city. It was probably related to the gods that King Landhar III served, and his questions confirmed that point.

Ten minutes later, Watson put their projections back into the book.

“So that is King Landhar III’s plan? It’s really creepy.” Watson stared at the barren ground and could not help but shiver.

Ash had that information because she had used her special eyes to see through King Landhar III’s strength. The man also revealed some information to them as they were about to die. However, it was not comprehensive. Even so, Watson still felt fear.

He even had an impulse to use the Book of Wisdom to ask for the King’s complete plan. However, after thinking about it, he suppressed it. Even though the Book of Wisdom was at a peak starlight-tier item, he knew he should not provoke those seven gods. If he summoned King Landhar III’s projection and duplicated the divine power in his body, what would happen if he attracted the seven gods’ attention?

“Young Master Watson, I always thought that the King was not a good person. Now it seems that is true! He held the competition to destroy the Winter Nation and get you, Young Master Watson. In the final step of his plan, he might even sacrifice his three sons and daughter. There is an old saying in the Holy Dragon Kingdom—a vicious tiger will not eat its own son. At that moment, his actions are even more cruel than a ferocious beast.”

Amon, who had also heard Watson’s question, could not help but tremble.

He was a platinum-tier elite assassin. His ability to withstand pressure was very strong, but he still could not bear it. It was clear that the King’s plan had brought him a powerful impact.

“Since ancient times, the cruelty of kings, or rather, the cruelty of humans, has surpassed that of animals.”

Watson said, “Now that we know a part of King Landhar III’s plan, we need to take back the capital. From now on, let King Landhar III continue to follow his plan. Amon, you have to pretend that you don’t know anything, understand?”

“But Young Master Watson—”

“There are no buts. Just listen to me.”

“Alright.”

Even though he was still worried, Amon accepted Watson’s firm order.

“It’s already noon. Let’s call Christina and have a meal with my friends from the other departments. We can also see if there are any geniuses worth roping in.”

Watson smiled and waved the Book of Wisdom in his hand. Books immediately appeared on the shelves in the library that had been emptied. Those books were replicas of those he had fused into the Book of Wisdom. They were no different from the previous books. Even the principal, who should be very familiar with those books, would not be able to tell the difference. He only needed to use one-tenth of this strength to maintain those books.
