Chapter 301 [Secret Realm Teleportation Ritual (Introduction)]


    Jane''s interpretation of this sentence seemed to open a door to a new world for Xia En, and his thoughts quickly diverged.


    Previously, due to rumors in the Seven Seas and the extremely rare status of the ancient dragon and elves races.


    Shane once thought they were extinct long ago.


    It wasn''t until Jane''s words that Shane realized another possibility -


    Back then, when faced with some kind of irresistible disaster, these two races did not fight head-on, but chose to escape!


    The destination of escape is the other [Secret Realms] in the [Secret Sea].


    Give an inappropriate example.


    This is like the "Fire Project" in which a group of people took a spaceship to go to another habitable planet when the world was facing the end of the world in the previous life.


    Shane was naturally curious about how they came up with this plan and how they implemented it.


    But what concerned him more was that if this conjecture was true, wouldn''t it mean...


    Laila is still alive?


    Thinking of this, Xia En couldn''t help but jump up and down.


    To be honest, after returning from the [City of Giant Woods] in history last time, he had already prepared the most pessimistic plan in his mind.


    After all, judging from the information that Shane had collected in the past.


    The enemy the elves faced was unprecedentedly powerful, and there was almost no possibility of victory.


    The disappearance of the elves in the modern Seven Seas proves "the defeat of the elves."


    So for a long time, Shane thought that he would never see Laila again.


    It was only now that Xia En had some hope again in his heart.


    At this moment, he also understood the meaning of "mother and grandmother went to a place far, far away" in Jane''s words.


    They are no longer in the same world, and there is still a [secret sea] between them. Isn''t that a very, very far away place?


    Soon, Xia En couldn''t help but ask again.


    "Then may I ask...what do the remaining two sentences mean?"


    After thinking about it, Jian said, "I''m not sure about the meaning of the last two sentences. I can only tell you my guesses, and you can just listen to them."


    "I wonder if you''ve ever heard of...the observer effect?"


    Xia En replied honestly: "I have heard a little bit."


    "When we observe something, we will inevitably have an impact on it."


    "Combining the first of the three sentences, it is not difficult to guess that the object being observed is ''history''!"


    Jane is worthy of being the eighth former member of the "Truth Society" in the "Truth Serial Number", and she speaks very logically.


    At the same time, she did not jump to conclusions, but said cautiously.


    "Then what this sentence means is that history cannot be changed after it is observed."


    "It''s just that the key is...who is this observer?"


    A little confusion appeared in Jian''s wise eyes: "Is it a specific person, the will of the world, or some other existence?"


    "Moreover, changing history...even in the [Truth Society], no one has truly achieved this."


    After hearing these words, Xia En''s heart was filled with turmoil again.


    The reason why Jane had some difficulty understanding this sentence and had so many doubts was simple.


    She did not personally travel back in time and subconsciously believed that "changing history" was impossible.


    But Xia En is different. He has gone back to the past more than once to communicate and get along with those historical figures in person.


    Therefore, Xia En felt more about this sentence and thought to himself.


    "The observed history cannot be changed..."


    "Does the observer here refer to myself?"


    "And the other meaning of this sentence is that history that has not been observed can be changed?"


    Since the world around Shane had not changed at all after these two returns, he once felt that everything he did was in vain.


    But after seeing this sentence, his thoughts changed slightly.


    And soon, Xia En thought of a verification method.


    He asked Jane: "Is there any information about the magic pattern master Carmen or the steam mechanic Thomas in the big library?"


    "Carmen, Thomas?"


    Jane was a little surprised when she heard these two names, but she didn''t ask any more questions, but said directly.


    "Yes, this is the [Federal Library]!"


    "Just a moment please."


    With that said, Jane walked out of the secret room and looked for relevant books for Xia En.


    Not long after, Jane came to Xia En with a thick stack of information and asked.


    "What do you want to know about them?"


    Xia En said bluntly: "Personal biographies and diaries are best recorded when participating in the [Congress of All Nations] held by the elves."


    Jane gave Xia En a meaningful look.


    An ordinary captain would not know that the elves held a [Congress of All Nations] in the past.


    In fact, Jane knows this because she has stayed in the big library for too long and has long memorized all the major events that happened in history.


    "It''s too inefficient for you to read it alone. I''m here to help you."


    As soon as she finished speaking, Jane''s eyes suddenly lit up with several indescribably complicated runes.


    As the runes rotated, the books floated into the air on their own without any wind.


    Immediately afterwards, the pages of each book began to turn by themselves, as if there were invisible hands, turning each page gently and quickly.


    At the same time, there was a faint light emerging from the ancient books.


    Does it feel like it''s being scanned?


    Jane even had the energy to explain to Shane: "This is a very simple little spell."


    “I can search the texts in these books based on the information I want.”


    "For the position of librarian, it should be considered very practical, right?"


    Xia En was secretly speechless.


    Although the administrator claimed that she was not good at fighting, if it were a real life-and-death fight, Xia En would not even have a chance of winning against her.


    In less than a moment, all the books fell back to their original positions and the light shrank.


    And Jane also closed her eyes, as if digesting the information obtained from the book.


    Soon, Jane opened her eyes, and silver light flashed from her eyes.


    "Found it."


    She took out a book from the stack, turned it to one of the pages, and handed it to Shane.


    "This book is called ''My Friend Carmen''. It is a biography written by his friend. It records his experience in the [Congress of Nations]."


    Shane''s eyes fell on the yellowed pages of the book.


    […Undoubtedly, the most important turning point in Carmen’s life was seeing the magic patterns used by the elves during the Conference of All Nations. 】


    [At that time, Carmen was deeply amazed and shocked by the beauty of this technology, and made up his mind to start from scratch and enter this new field. 】【To be honest, several other companions and I were not very optimistic about this decision, so much so that Carmen himself was shaken, but he finally chose to stick to it. 】


    [Afterwards, according to Carmen himself, just when he was about to give up, he seemed to hear the persuasion of a man in black robes. 】


    [He said, "How will you know if you don''t try?"]


    [It was precisely because of these simple words that gave Carmen the courage to persist. However, in the end, he did not know the identity of the man in black robe and could not thank him in person. 】


    [This also became one of Carmen’s regrets in her later years. 】


    [Perhaps, that is the revelation of fate...]


    Jane looked at Xia En with a strange look in her eyes and said.


    "Not only this "My Friend Carmen", but also a mysterious man in black robes appeared in Thomas''s diary."


    "Moreover, after Thomas became famous, he launched a missing person notice in the Southern Continent, saying that the man in black robe had changed his life and was his life-long benefactor. He should repay him well."


    The corner of Xia En''s mouth twitched slightly: "Is there such a thing?"


    If you think about it carefully, with the character Thomas showed during the contact at that time, it is really possible for him to do such a nonsensical thing.


    But after hearing this, it no longer makes much sense whether or not to read Thomas''s diary.


    Because both Carmen and Thomas obviously still remember themselves!


    This is enough to prove-


    History has been changed!


    Xia En was very excited.


    Although the magnitude of this change was not large and it did not affect the final result, the mere act of "changing history" is a feat!


    After thinking deeply for a moment, Xia En had some vague guesses about the "unobserved history".


    Before going back to the past, he only knew that Carmen and Thomas later became masters of magic patterns and developers of [Heart of Steam], but he did not know the specific process.


    And his actions made him an important turning point in the lives of these two people.


    In the original history, this is probably something that has never happened.


    "But what does the last sentence ''can be deceived'' mean?"


    One question was solved, and another one followed.


    Fortunately, there is Jane beside Xia En.


    This old woman who had lived for a long time had obviously seen something, but she was considerate and did not ask questions, but answered.


    "I think these three sentences should be read together."


    "The history we think may not be true history, but false history is not necessarily meaningless."


    "For example, [the extinction of ancient dragons] may have successfully deceived certain entities, causing the disaster that should have come not to come."


    "The disappearance of the elves may have a similar reason."


    Xia En chewed these words silently.


    He felt that there was some truth to Jane''s guess, but it might not be Laila''s real intention in leaving these three sentences to herself.


    No matter what, just this conversation with Jane made Xia En feel that his trip was worthwhile and fruitful.


    The goal of coming to [Liu Li Island] this time has been more than half accomplished.


    However, Xia En did not forget his other purpose of coming to the [Federal Library].


    "Ms. Jane, is there any spell in the Great Library that can realize material transmission and personnel transmission between two [secret realms]?"


    Hearing Xia En''s request, Jane''s face flashed with surprise.


    "You really asked the right person."


    "Actually... my main research direction in the [Truth Society] was the connection between different [secret realms]."


    Her expression quickly became serious: "First of all, I have to ask you, is the [Secret Realm] you want to connect to far from the [Seven Seas World]?"


    Facing Jane who was in a serious state, Xia En felt a little frightened for no reason, and answered honestly: "It should be considered relatively far."


    "Then conventional methods won''t work."


    Jane showed the research attitude of a master in the field of [Secret Realm] and said eloquently: "Generally speaking, for short-distance [Secret Realm], it is most practical to directly cut a crack and establish a portal."


    "But if it is a long-distance [Secret Realm], you must first set up an [Anchor Point] at the target [Secret Realm]..."


    …


    …


    Two hours later.


    Xia En held on to the wall and left the secret room dizzy.


    He felt like he was back in college, taking a cutting-edge course taught by a professor, and moreover, he was not in his major!


    Not falling asleep within three minutes was already the result of his amazing willpower.


    Fortunately, such efforts are not without rewards.


    [You have been taught by Jane Vivian! 】


    [Acquisition Skill: Secret Realm Teleportation Ritual (Getting Started)! 】


    Considering that Xia En had not studied the relevant [Secret Realm] knowledge in depth, Jane deliberately chose a relatively simple teleportation ritual.


    In Jane''s words, this is a ritual arrangement method that even orcs can learn!


    However, the ritual itself is simple, but the materials required are not simple.


    In the simple list, seven out of ten materials were unknown to him, and some of them he had never even heard of.


    As you can imagine, their prices will not be cheap.


    Especially on a prosperous island like [Liu Li Island] where land is at a premium, some products may be even more expensive!


    This made Xia En feel a little worried about his wallet.


    To be honest, Xia En hasn''t had a few decent incomes since the [Magnetic Sea Area].


    Before boarding [Liu Li Island], he scuttled two vampire warships, but he had no time to search them.


    "That''s all my money..."


    The more Xia En thought about it, the more distressed he became, so he charged this debt to the vampire again.


    "In case the Golden Dragon Coins are not enough, we can only sell the supplies in the [Rhine Secret Realm]."


    "Those novel species and the seeds in the [Ember Treasure] can also be exchanged for the Federation''s merits..."


    Xia En was just thinking about how to make money when he saw Daisy and her brother walking up to him.


    "Captain Shane, what is your relationship with Ms. Administrator?"


    Daisy stared at Xia En with curiosity, and glanced at the secret room behind her.


    She had long been interested in the secret room that existed in the urban legend of [Liu Li Island], but she had never seen the secret door open.


    Who would have thought that Xia En''s arrival this time would easily achieve this small goal.


    "What''s the relationship?"


    Xia En was a little strange. He didn''t know why the siblings were curious about this kind of thing, but he still said.


    "It''s probably a relationship that we have known each other for years."


    Alessio''s eyelids twitched and he couldn''t help complaining: "Friends at the end of the year?"


    "Isn''t it a bit too many years to forget?"
