Looking directly at the ancient gods for a whole year

Chapter 2463 The Dilemma of Self-Proof
"The idea that will can also take on a mythical form is indeed an apt metaphor."

Despite the less-than-ideal weather, Professor Fu's laboratory at Tianqi Academy was a picture of tranquility and peace, filled with people chatting and laughing while enjoying tea around a snake.

Even the content of the conversation, just a single sentence, could easily frighten someone.

Faced with the statement before him, Cast thought for a moment and said it was very apt.

"But I don't think that's a normal situation, even though it felt great in that state."

"It won't even lead to nothingness like some spiritual paths; it's just a more perfect self."

Although she immediately shook her head, her evaluation was still predominantly negative.

"It sounds good, so why isn't it a good thing?"

The evaluation and introduction of the cast were clearly inconsistent. Fu Qian poured him another cup of tea, indicating that he might as well explain it more clearly.

"It's hindering me from going any further. Everything is fine in that state, but the path becomes blurry and harder to grasp. Even if I break free of the mythical form, the effects will still last."

And as expected, it wasn't a matter of subjective judgment; the cast continued to reveal a secret, his tone certain.

Perfect but difficult to improve upon?
At that moment, Fu Qian exclaimed in admiration.

If it weren't for the fact that our Eternal Lock is still in the warehouse, everyone would have thought that you, Dean, stole it.

Furthermore, he is indeed a ruthless person. Most people would be very wary of "losing themselves" in this situation.

But the focus of this attention seems to be on whether there is an opportunity to go further.

"Like, right now?"

The next moment, he blinked and asked a startling question.

"Hehe...hehe..."

The air was silent for a few seconds, then the cast started laughing, even shaking their heads as they laughed.

"I would say I'm fine now, but it seems I really can't help you figure it out."

……

I knew it! What's wrong with letting Professor Lisa sit in on such a great event?

Perhaps it involves some secrets, but the latter has even fewer secrets to eavesdropping on?
If Vanlissa, like Neferi, were to defect and spread the secrets she knew, the academy's reputation would drop even further.

He glanced at Lisa, and in that instant, he confirmed once again the reason for her current predicament.

Can't tell.

When I talked to her about the cast earlier, I mentioned the difficulty in determining whether the latter was the person's true thought or a pretense due to a loss of control.

In the current context, this is what the cast refers to as the "perfect self."

It seems the most difficult situation has still occurred.

The physical mythological form has been dispelled, but what about the spiritual one?

Is it possible that even if the cast visits, the difficulty mentioned to Lisa earlier will still exist?

Did he truly eliminate the hidden dangers before taking the next step, or did he finally fail to convince himself this time and compromise to accept that perfection?
It even convinced itself that by reciting these words, it could confuse its colleagues and stifle any possibility of external help.
I really can't tell the difference.

To be honest, I've come across quite a few mental health cases lately, but the dean's case is truly a difficult one.

Even his own description of this situation is extremely accurate—it cannot be proven.

I can say I'm fine, and act like I'm fine, but it's completely meaningless, because it can all be a pretense.

"Actually, it doesn't matter. It makes no difference if I keep pretending."

Fortunately, Professor Fu was so optimistic and open-minded that he didn't get stuck on the details and immediately said that actions speak louder than words.

As long as you can continue to be the person in charge of Apocalypse, it doesn't matter what your inner world is like. "Haha... Actually, that's what I really thought before I tried it."

This inaction unexpectedly resonated with the leadership.

The cast almost burst out laughing, indicating that great minds think alike.

……

A true pragmatist.

A casual, joking remark carries a meaning that evokes deep sorrow.

Every attempt to cure a hidden danger is an adventure, and there is a high possibility of getting stuck in a state of "perfection" from which one cannot escape.

However, the cast continued to try again and again, showing no sign of giving up.

As for the reason——

"The world is getting more and more chaotic... The academy really needs a second-tier student."

Fu Qian shook his head, indicating that people's hearts are no longer what they used to be.

A spirit of striving for excellence is the underlying characteristic of almost every extraordinary person, but to risk so much danger and still want to snatch chestnuts from the fire, the Dean may well be continuing down the same path as before.

It must be said that the cast has a good sense of crisis. Apart from the trouble caused by the King of Abandoned Prison, this world is indeed in a state of turmoil.

Therefore, even if the academy is thriving recently, it may still need a sufficiently powerful force to maintain order.

"Actually, you don't need to think of me as having such a spirit of sacrifice. People's motives are rarely pure. Over the years, I have also been looking forward to the scenery after taking it a step further."

Cast shook his head, having no intention of taking on such a noble and righteous image.

“There’s even a motive I’ve never told anyone—in that situation, it should be enough to handle things on the Ash Sea side.”

She still has this obsession after all.

Thinking to myself, it wasn't surprising that I made that gesture at that moment.

As mentioned earlier, he is a pragmatist, and the cast clearly dislikes being bound by rules.

The Preservation Room Project is proof of this.

I don't mind being a traitor at all, and I'll share the information about the Ash Sea with myself.

They didn't even try to hide it; instead, they drew attention to themselves to the greatest extent possible.

And at this moment, it sounds like he's planning to do some things himself.

"However, your achievements are truly remarkable, and I increasingly feel that you can do even better than me."

Sure enough, the next moment the cast looked over, their eyes full of approval, completely unconcerned about the suspicion that they were cowardly.

Clearly, he doesn't value reputation much.

"I will try my best to achieve this."

Coincidentally, Fu Qian also demonstrated his lack of humility on the spot, indicating to the dean that he could rest assured.

Furthermore, although it wasn't explicitly stated, I always felt that the cast had something in mind, and their confidence in themselves might not only be based on their abilities, but also on their rank.

“I went to Shanzhou earlier today. It seems that what you triggered was not only the effect on Professor Lisa, but also some of the miracles they evoked were amplified.”

The mutual flattery ended there, and Fu Qian changed the subject, finally attempting to answer the cast's initial question—why he elicited such a reaction.

"From what I understand, the area around the academy may have some special conceptual attributes, and certain behaviors can trigger this. The simplest example is the snow tree leaves that only change color in this vicinity."

And they were equally honest.

"At the heart of that concept is a name—Meria."
