Chapter 684: New World [2 in 1]

Translator: Shiraishi Editor: TheAlliance

In this strange space, everyone could see familiar and unfamiliar shadows in all directions.

Those who had the qualifications to enter the Sky Tower were all gathered together.

But they could feel the fierce Order Shackles surrounding them.

This was the supreme pressure of the ancient Wizard God.

Marvin could feel that the Order Shackles here were some ten thousand times stronger than the Divine Shackles that had been set up by those dozens of Clerics and Divine Servants earlier.

The Divine Shackles couldn't trap Marvin at all, but these Order Shackles sealed all of Marvin's abilities!

On his interface, the skills were all grayed out.

Marvin wasn't worried about this, though. The Wizard God wouldn't target him.

Although he couldn't hear the voices of the others, he could tell that they probably were all in similar situations, judging by their startled expressions.

This was the first floor of the Sky Tower.

'Looks like strength is not needed to go through the first floor of the Sky Tower.'

Marvin focused back on the stone tablet, which had many lines of characters on it. But Marvin had never seen those characters before.

These characters couldn't have come from Feinan!

Because it wasn't just Marvin that was unfamiliar with these characters. Even the Book of Nalu and the Wisdom Chapter couldn't recognize these characters.

This meant the Ancient God Language was excluded too.

'Could it be a secret code?'

Marvin looked thoughtfully at how the others around him were doing.

Most people didn't react for a while, and some observant ones had already started trying to decipher the meaning coded into these characters on the stone tablets.

Normally, a powerhouse with a Divine Vessel would be able to rely on its abilities to perform calculations and allow them to solve problems at a speed that far exceeded that of normal people.

Unfortunately, most of those present were Divine Servants. They would usually solve their problems by praying to their Gods for help. If their patrons were willing, they could call for a Divine Calculation to help them.

But this place was the Sky Tower.

The Order Shackles were absolute. Many Divine Servants tried to communicate with their Gods, but they found out that they didn't know where to start. The strings of fate connecting them to their Gods had been frozen.

They were completely cut off while in here and could only rely on their own power.

'Could it be that the first floor doesn't test strength, but intelligence?'

'What was God Lance thinking at that time?'

'He left the Sky Tower to guard the Fate Tablet, what meaning does it have?'

They all frowned, looking closely at the strange design on the stone tablet, their minds not able to understand the meaning within.

Marvin began studying the characters on the stone tablet in earnest.

He wasn't worried about it.

Because he knew that this test was actually very advantageous to him.

Among all these people, there was only one person that could match the Gods' Divine Calculations!

And that was Marvin!

His Wisdom Ability had not been suppressed, and it had deductive capabilities that surpassed what most Gods could do, and calculation was just a small part of it.

Thus, Marvin was very confident that he could decipher the code on the stone tablet and find the answer before most others.

He took his time, not being in any hurry. Because the pattern on the stone tablet sparked his interest.

He discovered that whenever he focused his sight on these strange designs, the surrounding lines and characters became faintly discernible.

These patterns could apparently move.

Marvin recorded the strange patterns in his mind because he felt that this stone tablet was most likely part of the Fate Tablet!

He had seen a Fate Tablet.

A fragment at least. When Ding blessed him to beat the Black Dragon, she had overexerted herself, causing her to return to her original form as a Fate Tablet Fragment.

At that time, Marvin had seen some patterns and strange characters on the fragment.

The figures on the stone tablet before him were very similar to what had been on Ding's.

Marvin had recorded the contents of that stone tablet, in order to be ready for any eventuality. After all, the world was unpredictable. Even if Marvin was confident in himself, his opponents this time were the most outstanding individuals from all over the Universe. If he failed in the struggle over the Fate Tablet, he would at least be able to glean some clues.

He activated his Wisdom Ability as he considered the strange characters that had been on Ding's fragment.

However, the advanced False Divine Vessel was in a sealed state, meaning that Marvin couldn't use his other powers to support the Wisdom Ability. He could only power it with his natural physique.

But the current Marvin was amazing in all fields.

Relying on his natural physical power to activate his Wisdom Ability wasn't a problem for Marvin. He would be able to use it for a short while.

The moment the Wisdom Ability was activated, Marvin's mind became extremely clear.

His eyes swept across every pattern on the stone tablet before him, along with the lines and characters.

These elements kept organizing in his mind, deconstructing, fusing, permuting...

A large amount of information was processed very quickly.

Marvin was staring at the stone tablet, the atmosphere in this small room became tense.

Three minutes later.

Marvin sighed.

He massaged his eyelids, discontinuing the use of his Wisdom Ability.

He looked at the others. Most of them were racking their brains, and many of them were sweating bullets.

It was clear that deciphering the code on that stone tablet was too complicated. Even for those at the level of Divine Servants, it would be very difficult to find the proper answer in a short amount of time.

Marvin had some other advantages, too. These foreign powerhouses that had been sent to Feinan were chosen based on their fighting ability, and not their intelligence. Each of the Gods had all kinds of Divine Servants. If Divine Servants that specialized in such tasks had been, they might not be slower than Marvin.

But in reality, most of the Divine Servants were already at a dead end, looking very anxious.

Some overexerted themselves and fainted on the spot.

Marvin looked at this scene and couldn't help shaking his head slightly.

But this subconscious movement made him realize that he too was drenched in sweat.

He took half a step forward and felt a burst of dizziness!

Fortunately, he immediately stabilized himself and took a few deep breaths before feeling better.

'Using this without the power to back it up is harmful to the body,' Marvin thought wryly.

Without Fate Power or Domain Power as support, with just the strength of a mortal, the consequences were too frightening.

If Marvin had gone on for a few minutes longer, he might have fainted like one of those Divine Servants.

He rested for a bit before picking himself back up and looking over the stone tablet.

He opened his left hand and slowly pushed down on the tablet.

This movement immediately attracted the attention of the people in the surroundings.

Gazes of amazement, shock and unwillingness overlapped on Marvin's body.

Because they couldn't communicate with each other, they could only helplessly look at Marvin's actions.

They hadn't thought that the first one to show obvious progress in the Sky Tower would once again be the one that had been in the limelight outside of the Sky Tower, Marvin!

'This must be an illusion…'

The Azure Matriarch had changed her own appearance and hidden inside the crowd.

She had been using a unique method to decipher the code, sending a message to the Ethereal Plane through the Order Shackles!

The sinister World Ending Twin Snakes from the Ancient Era were already helping with cracking the code on the stone tablet.

The World Ending Twin Snakes were from the same era as Lance.

They were naturally more familiar with the stone tablet left behind by Lance than anyone else there was.

But even so, they still hadn't responded to the Azure Matriarch yet.

Yet, Marvin was already moving!

'He must be guessing.'

'That kid is actually trying it out without deciphering it? Does he want to just probe it?'

'Could it be that he doesn't know that this coded stone tablet will self-destruct violently if the deciphering fails?'

The Azure Matriarch bit her lip, her heart beating extremely quickly.

She naturally wasn't too worried about Marvin getting hurt.

She was very willing to see Marvin miscalculate and be deprived of his qualifications.

But when she saw Marvin's confident expression, her original thoughts about the possibility that he was just guessing were somewhat shaken.

...

Marvin put his left hand on the stone tablet.

The next second, the stone tablet suddenly became blank as a calm voice echoed beside his ears. "What do you see?"

Marvin's pupils dilated.

It really was Lance's voice.

He didn't care about the others' gazes and unhesitantly said, "Key."

Key.

Yes, after deciphering the code of the stone tablet, only that word remained.

It seemed simple, but it held some secret meaning.

"It really is 'key'. You know it." Lance's voice echoed once again.

Then, a gentle light blossomed from the stone tablet, covering Marvin.

Marvin suddenly disappeared from the room right before their eyes!

Those left behind had complicated expressions.

The gentle light that appeared around Marvin must have signified that Marvin was the first one to correctly decipher the code!

This greatly stimulated them.

Although no one knew how many levels there were in the Sky Tower and whether there was a time limit for the following challenges, they began to feel more anxious!

They had to speed up!

What if the Sky Tower had the stone tablet as its only test? Wouldn't Marvin get to reach the Fate Tablet first already?

The Divine Servants all immersed themselves in calculations.

And in a room not far away, a girl carrying three Holy Swords had no intentions to do any calculations at all.

She just waited there silently, observing Marvin's every move.

'Sure enough, you are still first.'

'World Destroyer…'

A forced smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. Her gaze hardened and became more resolute, as if she had just made up her mind.

...

A cool breeze brushed against his face.

A lukewarm sunlight shone on his body. It felt like a lover's hand, warm and intimate.

Marvin slowly opened his eyes.

His memories became sluggish, and for some reason, it felt like he could only think very slowly.

His thoughts were in disarray.

He knew that he was called Marvin.

And the world in front of him felt very unfamiliar!

At this moment, he was standing on the balcony of the 94th floor, welcoming the rising sun.

Between the skyscrapers, countless cars were flying along very quickly.

The scene of a small girl carrying a bear plushie flashed on a big screen not far away, her smile looking quite beautiful.

On the edge of the screen, there was some text.

Marvin couldn't see those tiny characters clearly. He could only see the title.

New World.

This was a new world.

He faintly felt something wrong, but he couldn't figure out what exactly was wrong.

He was silent for a moment, trying to remember his own memories.

But suddenly, a gentle voice called out to him. "Dear, what are you doing?"

...

That was Marvin's wife.

He didn't know why, but a gentle smile appeared involuntarily on his face. His chin and vocal cords weren't under his control as he said, "Just looking at the scenery. Has time passed so quickly?"

His wife had the same warm smile as she reminded, "The company car will arrive in three minutes. This meeting is very important, and I can't accompany you. Break a leg!"

After saying this, she patted her swelling belly.

Seven months.

That was their child.

He subconsciously glanced at his surroundings.

There was a wedding photo in the bedroom. The home was neat and tidy, letting out a faint, sweet scent.

As he swept his gaze around, he saw that there were more photos arranged in a lot of places.

They were smiling warmly.

But he felt a bit strange about these smiles.

'Why do these smiles all look the same?'

'Even the crease at the corner of his mouth looks the same?'

Marvin felt a chill in his heart.

His instincts reminded him that there was an important meeting today and that the chauffeur would arrive in a few minutes.

His wife was cleaning up the dining table.

The sun was still shining on the balcony extremely beautifully at that perfect angle.

In fact, everything was unimaginably beautiful.

"Woosh!"

Outside the transparent glass door, something swept past, and he saw a private flying car… the "Shadow", stopping there very stably.

Marvin walked over, deprived of his own free will.

At that time, his wife's voice suddenly echoed from the kitchen. "Don't forget to bring the 'key'!"

Key?

Marvin froze, his hand suddenly feeling a sharp chill.

An icy piece of parchment was pressed against his palm.

"You… Always so careless. Without a key, how can you explain to the board members?"

The wife displayed a gentle smile as she gently said.

Marvin took the parchment in silence and mechanically left the entrance, taking a seat in the car.

"Woosh!"

The next second, a shadow floated over and the car window automatically turned into a black screen. Shortly after, a menu appeared on it.

At the same time, a sweet, gentle piano melody began playing.

Marvin closed his eyes.

Key.

New World.

Only these two words remained in his mind.

'Who am I?' he asked himself.

I am Marvin.

'Who is Marvin?'

No answer.

A thought suddenly echoed deep in his mind. 'Why… aren't you satisfied with this world?'

'This is a world full of comfort and beauty, there is no evil and fighting here…'

'And you… belong here.'
