Charlemagne, who had close ties with the Sun God Cult, was shocked because he had no idea about these things!

And this person, who has no bloodline inheritance, actually knows so much!

"Where did you learn about these things?" he asked incredulously.

Armitage: "Ancient texts, if you know enough ancient language, you can easily glimpse the truth of antiquity."

"How many languages ​​do you know? Do you know Old Ukrainian?" Charlemagne suddenly asked in Ukrainian.

Armitage then replied in Ukrainian: "Ukrainians? It's only been two thousand years since then, so of course we know. As for how many kinds of e they know, there are probably more than thirty."

! ! ! !

Charlemagne was very familiar with those nonsensical ancient sayings. The Ukrainian language passed down in his family alone was enough to make him hate it so much that he went crazy!

And this old man in front of me actually knows more than thirty kinds of things!?

More than thirty kinds! Even if you know modern languages, that's already quite impressive, but what he knows are ancient languages ​​that have been lost for hundreds or thousands of years!

A shocked Charlemagne wanted to ask more questions, but Los interrupted him, saying, "Doctor, continue talking about the mask."

The two of them had just whispered a few words to each other, but he couldn't understand a single word, which made Los very unhappy.

Armitage then said, "The details of that time are now impossible to verify. We can vaguely tell from the records of the Sun God Cult that King Wuyang continuously corrupted the earth through the abyss, causing all things to wither."

"In order to maintain the light and temperature of this world, the Sun King could not leave the center of the world. So he sent out his most powerful general, whom he was proud of. The purpose of sending him out was not to destroy the Sun King, but to guard the abyss and prevent it from expanding."

"That general was incredibly brave and resolute, and incredibly powerful. But the corruption of the abyss was far more terrifying."

"Although the general has perfectly completed his mission and sealed the abyss to the edge of the world, the long-term corrosion has brought the general and his army to the brink of collapse. They are even about to become monsters like the guilty knights."

"Yet in such a desperate moment, the general and the soldiers remained steadfast in their posts, using their reason to resist the invasion of the abyss."

"As they slay the monsters of the abyss and resist its temptations, they also have to kill their comrades who have been thoroughly corrupted. It seems that the gods have favored these steadfast and respectable warriors, and the elves have appeared."

"An elf?"

Armitage's face showed rapture and amazement, as if he had lived through that era.

"It was a wolf with silver-gray fur. It seemed to belong to another world, radiating a soft light in absolute darkness. Its perfect fur was untouched by any filth of this world."

"The elven wolf favored the valiant general and forged an unbreakable covenant with him: as long as the general and his soldiers remained steadfast in the abyss, the elven wolf would guarantee that their hearts would not be corrupted or harmed."

"Then, the general and his soldiers made a pact with each other, they made masks to represent the elven wolf, and at the same time consumed wolf blood that did not belong to this world."

"The blood of the wolf has bound these brave soldiers together forever. Unity and protection, this rock-solid creed, allows them to eternally guard the abyss. And because of this wolf blood covenant, they are the only group of beings who can freely enter and leave the abyss."

Charlemagne was deeply moved by what he heard. The spirit of perseverance, protection, unity, and dedication was exactly the code of a knight. At this moment, he had immense admiration for the general and his soldiers.

Los expressed his approval: "Nice story. So, this mask is one of those masks worn by the soldiers back then?"

Armitage nodded: "That's right, but what's rather strange is that the mask is tainted."

"Defiled!?" Charlemagne seemed to be provoked, his voice becoming somewhat high-pitched.

Armitage said, "This monster was originally supposed to be a person, but it turned into this monster by unintentionally putting on this mask."

"Logically speaking, wearing a mask should have given him the protection of wolf blood, but he turned into a monster, which means that the mask has been completely corrupted and defiled by the abyss."

At this point, Armitage said with a solemn expression, "In other words, the original Wolf Blood Pact has been destroyed."

"This is impossible! How could a knight's will be so fragile!?" Charlemagne, who had just been filled with excitement, was dealt a huge blow.

Armitage said, unsurprised, "I don't know the details either. I pieced these together from the patterns on the masks, from the oracles of the Sun God Church, from the ancient royal court stone tablet manuscripts, and from the fragments of the Abyss Legion's scrolls. There should be other errors in the process."

Charlemagne lowered his head and bit his lip. Under Armitage's gaze, his heart trembled, and he gradually transformed into that very beautiful, yet somewhat gloomy and vicious little girl.

"Ah!?" Armitage, who had remained calm even when facing monsters, was suddenly terrified by Charlemagne's change in demeanor.

How did that tall, incredibly handsome man suddenly turn into an absolutely beautiful little girl?!

Los patted the old doctor on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Dr. Armitage."

Armitage snapped out of his daze and quickly shook his head: "It's no trouble at all. You don't know, the question about the Abyss Legion has been bothering me for a long time. I've always felt that there are commonalities in these three books, but I really can't find any useful materials or records to prove it."

"And today! Through the inscription on the mask, I have finally pieced together all those fragmented pieces!"

Armitage was very excited and happy when he said this.

“Great beings like the Abyss Legion should not have their deeds buried in history.” Armitage held the warriors who guarded the Abyss in high esteem.

Los stared at the filthy mask, his eyes gleaming, but he remained silent.

Chapter 0232 The Knowledge Vicious Cycle

After clarifying all the causes and consequences surrounding the mask, Los felt he had taken a step closer to understanding the true nature of this world.

He could now imagine that the era of the Sun Dynasty was a true mythological age, and that the power possessed by the humans of that era far exceeded that of the present.

If he truly desires a stable future, he will inevitably come into contact with forces related to the Sun Dynasty and the Sun God Cult.

In silence, he walked up to the monster and said, "Kant, take Dr. Armitage and Charlemagne out."

Conte nodded immediately and then asked the two men to leave.

At this moment, Charlemagne, who had now turned into a little girl, suddenly opened her mouth, but then seemed to remember something and didn't say anything more.

The three people left, and Los's body underwent a rapid transformation.

He soon transformed into his perfect form, a tentacle monster with eight tentacles.

He now wants to take the mask off.

Soft, powerful tentacles gradually covered the mask, and upon closer inspection, one could see that the mask was covered in scratches and filth.

The filth seemed to blend seamlessly with the mask, becoming one with it.

As Los's tentacles began to exert force, the monster's body started to convulse and struggle violently, but Los firmly suppressed it with one of his tentacles.

In his perfect form, Los possesses indescribable and terrifying power.

Under such immense force, the mask was gradually peeled off the monster's head, bit by bit.

As the mask was peeled off, Los's visual organs on the tentacles immediately revealed what was inside the mask.

Inside the mask, there was a large amount of writhing black mud, and in the middle of the mud, there were many tiny claws. These claws were strangely shaped, as if they were pieced together from countless fragments of crushed bones.

What followed was a twisted and dark world that even Los couldn't fathom.

Awooooo!

As the mask was gradually torn off, the monster began to let out a series of frantic howls.

The toughness of the black mud in the middle and the length of those claws far exceeded Los's previous expectations. At this time, it had stretched for more than a meter, and there were still hundreds of strands of black mud sticking to the monster's body.

Fortunately, by this time those strange claws had been completely stripped off, and then, as if there was something in the air that frightened them, they instantly retracted back into the mask.

“Another incomprehensible structure,” Los said, intrigued.

At this moment, Los's two tentacles were wrapped around the mask. These tentacles not only had optic nerves and auditory nerves, but also the ability to sense ultrasound, infrasound, and vibrations of related objects.

The perfect form of Los not only combines all the advantages, abilities, and forms of all living beings, but also incorporates all the knowledge and technology known to humankind today.

Through these detection methods, Los discovered that the space inside the mask was enormous, meaning that the space hidden inside the wolf head mask, which was twice the size of an adult's head, had a diameter of at least ten kilometers.

There is still a large amount of space that Los cannot explore.

Los still doesn't know what exists in this space.

However, he knew that the black mud and broken bone claws that were now manifesting were just the tip of the iceberg in this mask.

"How could this mask, which once symbolized unity and perseverance, be so severely tainted?" Even in this form, Los was shocked to see it.

"The Abyss, the Abyss—what exactly is the Abyss? Is it the Ancient Gods? Or the Outer Gods?"

Los now realized that he had entered Cthulhu's sensory loop.

Human perception expands continuously with our cognition and knowledge, and the overall shape of perception can be understood as a circle.

Inside the circle lies what can be understood, while outside the circle lies the unknown fear.

People crave knowledge, constantly expanding their knowledge base through learning in an effort to overcome the fear of the unknown.

However, as the area of ​​the spring increases, the perimeter will inevitably increase as well.

A longer perimeter means encountering more unknown territories and attracting more fear.

After being transported to another world, Los, having received Yog-Sothoth's blessing, gained a great deal of inhuman knowledge. He thought he was qualified to break free from this vicious cycle and move towards omniscience and omnipotence.

However, as Los continued to come into contact with and learn more about the Sun Dynasty and the Sun God Cult, he found that the more he knew, the more doubts he had.

First there were those guilty individuals whose principles and destruction were incomprehensible, and now a wolf-head mask of completely incomprehensible form and nature has appeared. This made Los suddenly realize that the knowledge Yog-Sothoth had given him was no longer appealing.

At this point, the black mud was still being stretched into strands, which had already exceeded three meters in length.

Although these black sludge particles were constantly wriggling, they showed no signs of life.

Even so, Los still felt an indescribable danger, so much so that even in his current form, Los dared not touch the strange black mud.

In his view, this black mud was far more terrifying than the artificial ancient gods of the past.

"Owner."

Lilith's voice rang out as there was a knock on the door.

At that very moment, the black mud that was still stretching beneath the wolf-head mask suddenly trembled, then quickly detached itself from the monster's body and almost instantly retracted back into the mask.

The mask was officially removed from the monster's body.

This reaction immediately surprised Los, and then a tentacle spoke: "Come in."

Lilith then pushed open the door and entered. Upon seeing Los's appearance, she showed no surprise and respectfully walked over, saying, "Master, Elizabeth has come to say that the Queen is going to Innsmouth for an investigation today, and she needs your accompaniment."

One of Los's tentacles grunted and said, "We'll depart in half an hour."

Meanwhile, two other tentacles were examining the large wolf head mask.

Inside the wolf head mask, a large amount of black mud could be seen wriggling, and a peculiar fluctuation continuously emanated from the mask.

“Master,” Lilith said, pointing to the monster’s body.

Los turned his head and saw the monster's body rapidly shrinking, with a large amount of hair entering the body through the pores. The strange monster had turned into a naked human.

The front half of this human's head is gone, including the face, eyes, jaw, and other organs; only part of the brain remains, pulsating in the air.

At the same time, it can be seen that there seems to be no blood on his body, and the wound on his head is a pale white color.

"His limbs were bitten to pieces; it really is that monster," Los said, gradually transforming back into human form.
