This Lord is Very Scientific-Chapter 852 - 784: Law of Fate
Lin Ke had been paying attention to Kaos before.
Kaos, also meaning "Beast Spirit."
The Kes Race here most commonly uses a power that's neither from a profession nor the Power of Laws.
Rather, it's the power of the physical body.
However, it's not pure physical power; it's a kind of power that uses the souls and True Spirits of other non-human species as "models" to exert strength.
For example, if someone's Beast Spirit chooses an eagle, they will have the eyesight of an eagle.
A snake has the flexibility of a snake, a bear has the strength of a bear, and so on.
It could also be the venom, scales of a snake, or the fur, claws of a bear, etc.
In essence, it's about absorbing the soul and then gaining some kind of enhancement!
Of course, the augmentation degree between the claws of a regular pug and those of a Legendary Giant Dragon will certainly be different.
Therefore, the Beast Spirit becomes particularly important.
The power system here in Kaos is very interesting; this kind of Beast Spirit enhancement is reminiscent of bloodlines.
Scholars have also dedicated research to this, finding that the Beast Spirit power system kind of uses souls to stimulate bloodlines.
Lin Ke came this time with the attitude of learning, hoping to gain some inspiration.
So he doesn't need anyone to accompany him and simply moves at the speed of light.
Otherwise, there's a likely scenario in Kaos.
And that is challenge!
The Kes Race is extremely warlike; challenges and fights are frequent in the wilderness.
Dueling, and then a winner emerges!
Of course, currently, there are no supreme powerhouses on the Kaos Continent.
Or rather, the supreme power of the Kaos Continent is now over in Naseng with another name, known as... the Five-Colored Dragon Mother.
Back when the Five-Colored Dragon Mother was still the Five-Colored Princess, she came to Kaos to achieve her path of invincible physical power.
Lin Ke suspected that if it weren't for the fact that his father-in-law is the King, he might not have been able to suppress his mother-in-law.
So, while Kaos doesn't possess the various powers of professions, the changes in physical power are extremely fascinating as well.
Compared to Eternal Dusk, Lin Ke prefers the state of Kaos.
Eternal Dusk is like a lifeless old man, occasionally featuring some fresh cells, like that missionary before, but mostly it's aging, solidified class cells.
On the other hand, Kaos is a young beast; although not human, it is agile and strong.
Therefore, Lin Ke merely made a brief stop in Eternal Dusk, while he plans to stay longer in Kaos.
After all...
Kaos might be where martial arts laws can really shine in the future.
As he mused, Lin Ke cast his gaze downwards.
A village.
In the village, two youths are fighting, exchanging blows relentlessly.
One of them had arms like two giant pythons, entangling the skills of python strangulation into the fight.
The other person had large, hardened joints, inflicting significant damage with each grab and clutch.
Their fighting was natural, surrounded by a circle of spectators.
"Well done! Villie, gouge his eyes!"
"Fleivers, just like that! Break his hand!"
"Punch him! Punch him!"
The villagers cheered, not consistently rooting for anyone but praising whoever fought well.
Lin Ke's figure then appeared among the crowd, using optical skills to change his appearance slightly, then proceeded to watch.
The two youths were estimated to be around fifteen or sixteen years old, with well-developed muscles, fighting with simplistic moves, little variation.
But Lin Ke saw the shadows of two beasts in the fight between the two youths.
A giant python, a mighty eagle!
These two youths inherited the souls of certain magical beasts, as well as some of their characteristics.
For example, the slender youth dressed in more exquisite clothing had hands that felt like a pair of iron tongs, seemingly capable of easily crushing stones.
Meanwhile, the short, stout youth in coarse cloth had a body like a giant python, with muscular arms, not to be underestimated in a strangling grip.
Good skills!
Of course, these good skills were limited to their age group, as Lin Ke saw a significant gap from his level.
In terms of technique, they fell short of martial arts, mostly relying on their innate abilities without learning how to utilize them effectively.
Nonetheless, they were just youths.
Perhaps Athena should open a branch of a martial arts hall here... Lin Ke thought, the top powerhouses of Kaos surely have their merits, which could greatly enhance the quality of Great Wilderness City residents.
Or rather, it would be mutually beneficial.
Ideas from Tai Chi would certainly inspire Kaos too.
Unfortunately, Kaos, like Naseng, allows only natives to utilize Beast Spirits.
A young man from Great Wilderness City before was of mixed blood from Kaos and Naseng; otherwise, he wouldn't have been dispatched here.
Otherwise, Lin Ke would have wanted to try, to cultivate with a beast's soul firsthand.
However, though he can't host a Beast Spirit, he can still study it.
Lin Ke looked up, focusing on the two youths.
These two youths...
He suddenly realized something wasn't right.
Logically, he wouldn't pay special attention to anyone, since he should be experiencing Kaos from a third-party observer view.
Yet he felt a compulsion in his heart at this moment.
To assess one of the youths, then take that youth as a disciple!
"That's strange..." Lin Ke couldn't help but mutter.
He sensed, yet found no traces of fluctuations in the True Spirit or soul, nor were the three bloodlines being affected.
However, he suddenly thought of something.
"Fate..."
Lin Ke looked up at the sky, through the sky, clouds, and atmosphere, seeing the crystal wall system of Kaos.
The laws here are ancient and powerful, and the deepest rules rival those of Naseng.
Lin Ke knew that no matter which Main Plane or sub-planar crystal wall system, there was a rule known as "Fate."
Some professions like Astrologers, Witches, High Priests can make use of the fate laws and fate rules for divination and prophecy.
Of course, to Lin Ke, the fate rules resemble a fusion of probability and logic.
Those professions can only see fragments through fate, which may not even happen.
Why?
Because fate is unsettled, uncertain, unknowable.
Even the smallest change could cause the outcome to differ drastically.
Even a butterfly flapping its wings might create a storm miles away.
Hence, fate rules are not the "fortune-telling" rules many people imagine.
Yet...
The strength of Naseng's fate laws lies in its ability to exert great effect in the hands of its controller.
For example, if I can predict you'll pick up a dollar to your left in the next moment, I'll disrupt your action by placing something worth ten dollars to your right.
Thus, even though you feel you should pick up the dollar, you'll ultimately overcome the sense of "destiny" and pick up the ten dollars.
This is the strength of those who master the fate laws!
