Chapter 890: Chapter 419: Multivision and Direct Sight, Illusion and Reality_2

[The power of the Multivision School has grown significantly, and now they can stand on equal footing with the Direct View School. If those lunatics in the upper echelons of the Multivision Association learn of your existence, then this world is truly beyond saving.]

[Illusions are, after all, illusory, no matter how beautiful, they are false.]

[We scholars pursue not just knowledge but also ’reality’...]

[The "Great Sage of Direct View" spoke and then left the rest area, tightly closing the room door...]

[You quietly pricked up your ears, hearing its footsteps leave the office, growing fainter and fainter until they disappeared completely...]

[Do you want to try attacking the ’Knowledge Light Wall’ to break free from confinement?]

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes.

The words spoken by the Great Sage of Direct View just now were incredibly informative.

The Direct View School had always been in search of awakening the ’Almighty True Knowledge’ and a way to prevent the destruction of the world.

The Multivision School, on the other hand, had fewer scruples. They were more like zealots, willing to wake the Almighty True Knowledge even if it meant the destruction of the world.

It seemed that only the higher-ups of both schools were aware of the subsequent prophecies regarding the Messenger of the True God.

If Lin Xun wanted to gain more rewards, heading to the Multivision Association to find someone in charge there would probably be the right decision.

"...It doesn’t seem that simple, why is the prophecy so certain that my arrival would awaken the Almighty True Knowledge and lead to a world-destroying conclusion?"

Because he didn’t understand this, Lin Xun worried that going to the Multivision Association could end up being even more tragic than his current situation at the Direct View Association.

That wasn’t the only thing he didn’t understand. What did the Great Sage of Direct View mean by ’Illusion’ and ’Reality’ at the end?

The option to attack the light wall in front of him, although not presented in blood-red text, kept shaking incessantly, annoying Lin Xun to no end.

He pursed his lips and immediately pressed the ’No’ option.

There was still a way to escape his predicament for the time being.

Though the Light Wall was heavily guarded in every direction, he could simply commit suicide on the spot to return to the city for free, back to the resurrection point.

However, the Great Sage of Direct View had set up a life-monitoring device outside the Light Wall, and although committing suicide would allow him to escape, the sage would immediately notice.

"Is there a way to escape without being detected..."

Lin Xun fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, he opened his item management, and looked at the advanced Star Magic Skill he hadn’t learned yet—’Star Realm Shift’.

If he learned that skill, he could use a teleportation spell to instantly move outside the Light Wall.

The strongest Mage in his Shell slot at the moment, the ’Star Spirit’, had reached the minimum threshold to learn this skill.

"Sigh, it feels a bit wasteful to have the Star Spirit learn it, not that I’m getting carried away or looking down on a Mythical Level Shell, but there are just so many powerful Mages in this Chapter."

The ’Great Sage of Direct View’ he had just encountered had a Mythical+ Level Shell quality, and there were even stronger Mages like ’Prophet’ and ’Great Prophet’...

Giving Star Realm Shift to the Star Spirit to learn felt like giving the Red Hare to the unmatched general Pan Feng—it was overkill.

Lin Xun faintly felt there must be another way, so he opened his item management to continue searching.

His good habits of hoarding like a packrat had never changed; his item management was packed full of various items, useful and useless alike.

After rummaging through his inventory, he indeed found a usable item.

[Random Teleportation Scroll (Item): Using this item, you will be teleported to a random location within 10 kilometers.]

[The scroll will automatically avoid any dangerous environments within range. If there are no safe locations within 10 kilometers, the scroll will be consumed without effecting a teleport.] 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

This item was given to him by Vesinu as a life-saving tool before the struggle between disciples.

The life-saving tool hadn’t been used in the disciple struggle, but it could serve a significant purpose here.

Lin Xun didn’t mind using this thing now, as long as he could later obtain a high-level Mage Shell and learn ’Star Realm Shift’, he could teleport wherever he wished.

He didn’t immediately use the item, as there was another problem unsolved.

Although he could use the Random Teleportation Scroll to escape now, as soon as the Great Sage of Direct View returned, he’d be exposed.

Firstly, he didn’t know when the sage would come back, and secondly, even if he knew the exact time of the sage’s return, he had no way to break through the Light Wall and return to the cage.

"I need to come up with a way to fabricate the illusion that I’m still imprisoned so that I can slip away quietly..."

Lin Xun’s eyes shifted, and he came up with a cunning operation.

He switched Shells, summoning his Shikigami Snow Woman...

He immediately opened his item management and clicked on the item—’Illusion Duplication Device’!

[Illusion Duplication Device (Item): Using this item, you can designate an object in your surroundings to capture its image and use the device to create an identical illusion... Remaining uses 1/3]

Lin Xun smiled slightly and activated the item.

He set the image capture to himself...

[As the Refined Copper device’s lights flickered, soon beside you, an exact replica of you appeared.]

[To the naked eye, it was entirely impossible to distinguish the illusion from your true self.]

[The Snow Woman tried to touch it with her hand, and as her palm passed through the illusion, ripples of light shimmered...]

[As long as the enemy does not touch the illusion, it’s highly unlikely that the ’Illusion Duplication Device’ will be exposed.]

[Under your command, the Snow Woman stepped into the illusion, merging her form with the humanoid illusion. As the flickering of light settled down, the scene you anticipated, where the Snow Woman was completely concealed by the illusion, did not occur.]
