I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha.

Upon hearing that the god Dalark was to work like a slave, Olivia's expression turned somewhat unfriendly.

Roland, oblivious to her gaze, continued excitedly, "No wonder Aurelie likes Dalark. That guy is practically an alien 'super swarm'! Just one such slave."

The new term "divine slave" ignited a murderous glint in Olivia's eyes.

Roland quickly coughed and changed his words: "Ahem, I mean, the esteemed Lord Darak, one god, is equivalent to a complete super magic industrial system!"

How many gods are there in this heaven?
If I cough in the future, I mean, although we can't ask the gods for help, Mr. Dadak is enough as a god.

He does work very quickly, but he has lost a lot of weight in the past two months and keeps clamoring to go back to the lab.

I've slowed down the pace several times, but Marrod still told me this morning that if Dardark continues to work overtime, He will become the first god in the world to die suddenly from working for mortals.

So I had some free time.

Roland pointed to the book on the table and said, "These are the 'answers' that were created first in pursuit of efficiency. Although they are still beyond the comprehension of most people, with the answers, wizards can gradually analyze and understand them, whether using a seven-pointed table, a quiz machine, or other tools."

This is a job that apprentices can do. There are so many apprentices in the Eastern Territory who are qualified to enter the Towers for further study after graduation every year. They can be assigned to various Towers and mentored by their instructors. It won't be long before they get it done.

Once these apprentices have digested and understood this knowledge, they can be directly brought to the Holy See to participate in projects.

After listening to Roland's words, Brianna picked up the book with some emotion and began to flip through it. She said, "There's going to be another curriculum reform this year. I wonder how many high-level apprentices over there will be worried sick after realizing that their research direction is wrong."

Apprenticeships in the Eastern Territory are highly prestigious; mid-level apprentices are typically in their early twenties, essentially equivalent to university graduates. And the academy's curriculum usually only covers this much of the curriculum.

Advanced apprentices are generally in their late thirties; they are researchers working on projects with mentors or studying cutting-edge theories in high-level research. Their qualifications are even more valuable than master's or doctoral degrees.

Many apprentices are more professional in their research than fully-fledged wizards. This is especially true of those who have no hope of becoming full wizards; they dedicate their lives to research rather than striving to increase their power.

These people often live to be over a hundred years old and are still very healthy, so their academic lifespan is exceptionally long. Therefore, since the magical revolution that began in the Eastern Territory more than twenty years ago, which made magical education a civic duty, the foundation of the Eastern Territory has become increasingly solid.

Nowadays, the number of apprentices graduating from various colleges and universities is growing exponentially each year; last year it may have been hundreds of thousands, and next year it may be more than a million.

Roland and Brianna were excitedly discussing the apprentices in the East and their employment prospects.

Meanwhile, O'Reilly muttered to herself, "Grandpa Harland and the others can't handle or understand these things because they're not mad gods."

Olivia couldn't figure it out because, although he was a mad god, he didn't believe he was.

But Roland, that idiot, is different. He's a madman, and he knows perfectly well what he is. Yet, he's not insane!
My mom was right; all the gods have gone astray. They are all failures. Only my brother is the perfect new god!
The prophecy has been fulfilled in a way that the gods could not have foreseen: if the world survives this tribulation, the rule of the Kingdom of Heaven will surely come to an end.
What would Uncle Ulamunus (the sun god) do if he found out about this?
Will He nip it in the bud, or does He believe that the ultimate answer the gods have been searching for for tens of thousands of years lies in this world?

O'Reilly was torn, wondering whether she should write the truth or make things up in tonight's 'spy log'.

O'Reilly was conflicted, and so was Olivia.

Unlike O'Reilly's dilemma, Olivia's dilemma wasn't about betraying Roland, but about how to deal with him.

He would never kill Roland, but that didn't mean He wouldn't take Roland with him to the River Styx to seal him away together. After a long while, Olivia seemed to make a decision, and with that decision, she slumped into her chair as if drained of all her energy.

Sealing Roland is pointless, because there are far too many Rolands in this world.

Olivia could tell that Roland hadn't written the book alone, because it contained reports from Malrod's side.

Therefore, Roland extracted 'anchor points' from the old scriptures that could be used to salvage knowledge from the lower world. Malrod's team then analyzed what they had salvaged into theorems and formulas, and compiled them for Roland.

The Mad God can see everything in the lower world, and the foolish Alaya is an all-knowing god.

But the mad gods cannot translate the truths of the lower world into something usable in the material world!

They are even less able to understand the chaos of the lower world and touch the truth in the material world above, just like the people of this world!

Although Roland possessed divine blood, strictly speaking, his mother gave birth to him as a human, so he was human.

Therefore, his excellence represents the potential of the human race!

Leaving aside the wizarding teams in places like Malrod, the River Angel, and the Holy See, consider the talents in the various colleges of the Eastern Lands.

With so many apprentices appearing in the Eastern Territory every year, will more and more people like Roland emerge?
The answer is yes. Even without looking to the future, there are many people in the present whose talents are far more terrifying than Roland's in certain fields.

For example, 'Talas', 'Merlin', and the newcomers in their team.

For example, during their time in Roland's study, the group of high-ranking apprentices who were sent to the Holy See Library by the wizards, who intended for Roland to personally mentor them.

As Brianna often said to Olivia (actually, Catherine often said to Brianna), those lowly Muggles who were considered unworthy of magic and possessed the seven elemental aptitudes were the most remarkable wizards in the world.

Although they may never be able to use magic in their lifetime, they possess terrifying talents in certain areas.

And now, Muggles can also use magic.
A sufficient pool of talent, coupled with widespread magic education, has enabled the continuous discovery of true geniuses.

In the midst of the catastrophe of the apocalypse, unprecedented geniuses emerged one after another as the world's will and the will of civilization struggled in their final moments.

If humanity survives this calamity, their future development will proceed at a speed that terrifies even the gods.

In a few decades, the wizarding civilization will reach the same level as the gods in its understanding of the world.

In a few hundred years, these ants will, like the gods of old, create a rising new heaven.

If, thousands of years from now, the new gods will become the old gods, or even become the gods' God, just like the gods crawled out of the 'paper world' back then!
Thousands of years. For humanity, this is an extremely long time. Even if they already know all the truths and mysteries of the astral plane, they still need to accumulate knowledge slowly to allow their civilization to reach a theoretical level.

But for the gods, especially those who have now completely fallen into depravity and live a boring life day after day, thousands of years may just be a period of slumber.

So, for the gods, they will face a problem—overnight, they will find themselves with a new God above them! (End of Chapter)
