“Failed again.”

Saul once more awakened from deep meditation.

Today he had again attempted to capture his fate lines. However, after trying four or five times in succession, he still couldn’t grasp that fate line again, nor could he know whether his future had changed.

His previous fate had shown him rushing fearlessly toward the surging Black Tide, but now with Clark dead and Pei’er having become his person, would the future change because of this?

Or were all the things he had done before the very causes that led to the future occurring?

Because observing fate lines consumed a large amount of Saul’s mental power, he immediately felt a wave of fatigue upon recovering from deep meditation.

This kind of meditation was different from his usual way of using meditation to replace rest. Not only did it not restore mental power, it also increased consumption, making one’s spirit extremely weary.

Saul simply didn’t force himself to stay up. He directly leaned back and fell onto the mushroom bed, sleeping soundly.

…

Many people surrounded the formation.

There were Pei’er and Firefly Lord Herbert.

There were Senior Byron and Brando.

And some low-rank wizards he had seen before.

Even farther away were some strangers.

Most people’s faces showed awe and envy.

Directly across from Saul stood two black shadows.

One shadow was tall, one short. From their silhouettes, they appeared to be a man and woman.

But Saul couldn’t see their specific appearances clearly, only sensing that they seemed very unhappy.

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared before Saul. This person had golden electric light flashing all over their body. The electric light also obscured their features.

Saul could only see thin, bloodless lips opening and closing, while his ears buzzed, hearing nothing but noise.

Until finally, his ears seemed suddenly cleared by someone, and he finally heard the man in front speak the last word.

“Door!”

However, as this word fell, Saul suddenly heard the sound of huge waves behind him.

He spun around sharply and saw black giant waves as tall as small mountains crashing down from overhead!

Saul turned to flee. As far as he could see, everyone showed expressions of terror.

Just as Saul ran half a step, he was mercilessly swallowed by the black, icy seawater.

The feeling of suffocation instantly spread from his nasal cavity to his lungs. Saul seemed to forget he was a wizard and could only desperately paddle with his limbs.

He was carried by the waves, crashing into tree trunks and rocks several times before finally managing to poke his head above the black sea surface.

The seawater carried him up and down. At this time, apart from the constantly rising waves around him, Saul couldn’t see a single person!

“Screech—”

A clear cry.

The pale yellow giant bird flew down from high altitude.

The bird’s long tentacles reached into the black seawater and scooped out Saul.

However, just as the tentacles pulled Saul from the black seawater, they began to burn. At the last moment, Saul desperately climbed onto Diu Diu’s back, but the flames followed close behind.

They became a ball of black flame in the air.

…

Saul suddenly opened his eyes and found himself still lying on the mushroom bed, while the sweat on his body had actually soaked through his undershirt.

He cleaned himself up and ran down from the fourth floor.

Senior Byron was still researching on the third floor, with the laboratory lights still on.

The steward and other consciousness bodies weren’t in the tower, busy with who knows what.

As for Camus on the first basement level…

Saul thought about it and finally returned to his bedroom.

But after returning to his bedroom, he didn’t continue resting. Instead, he took out the Chaos Realm Compass.

Although it hadn’t been a month since he last visited his little apprentice Noah, Saul urgently wanted to see the Chaos Realm that had once been destroyed by the Black Tide because of his recent dream.

The pointer on the compass spun rapidly, causing Saul’s senses to also begin spinning.

After brief dizziness, Saul’s vision went black, and he found himself standing on a black desert.

It was already dark, with no moonlight overhead.

The length of a day in the Chaos Realm was the same as in the wizard world.

The Chaos Realm should belong to a World Side of the main world, sharing the same sun and moon with the wizard world.

It’s just that tonight’s moonlight didn’t seem to reach this place. Everything around was pitch black, and Saul could only explore his surroundings through mental power.

There was almost no pollution here, nor any active magical power. Of course, Saul had never discovered any life here other than monsters.

He wasn’t clear whether intelligent species still existed in this world that had once been swept by the Black Tide.

Having Noah live here, besides maintaining Noah’s life, was also to have him help explore this world.

Saul wanted to know what exactly had happened to the Chaos Realm? What was it like originally? Why had it become like this?

Most importantly, Saul wanted to know how the Black Tide appeared and how it became the current lifeless black powder with no pollution ability covering the ground.

Saul’s mental power quickly found the small house not far away.

However, there were no mental power fluctuations from Noah inside the house.

Saul spread his mental power to its maximum range but still didn’t discover any trace of Noah.

“After dark, the black desert becomes more dangerous, and monsters hidden beneath the sand are harder to detect. Why isn’t Noah home?”

Thinking his little apprentice might have encountered some trouble, Saul frowned slightly and raised his hand to release a huge fireball toward the sky.

The sphere burning with red flames rose into the sky. Although it couldn’t bring light to the earth like a real sun, it could let life on the nearby land sense this bit of crimson.

Soon Saul saw a small point of light to his left.

That was the small fireball Noah had finally learned with great difficulty.

Due to poor magical aptitude, Noah didn’t have any so-called specialization element. He learned whichever was simple, focusing on practicality.

Coming to the Chaos Realm, the first 0-rank magic Noah learned was a small fireball.

At the same time, because this world had no active elemental particles, magic received very little interference after being cast, resulting in 0-rank magic having longer attack range and duration in this world.

In this world, Noah was the only one who could cast magic.

The moment Saul saw the small fireball, his entire body shot up from the ground, drawing a precise parabola in the air before landing where the small fireball had been launched.

While descending, Saul unceremoniously cast Electric Light Shield, his entire body surrounded by rings of lightning halos.

Like the moon descending from heaven to earth.

If someone who saw Saul at this moment were to write memoirs in the future, they would definitely describe Saul in their book as a god descending from heaven. He guided this hopeless world onto another path of revival and gave life in this place—unable to live properly or die peacefully—a chance to change their fate!

But at this moment, Scorpion, born in the dark age, had received no education.

Standing beside Noah, he looked up in a daze at the divine figure surrounded by golden electric arcs with a cloak fluttering behind him.

Looking at the only point of light in the dark world.

Only two words came to his mind.

“Holy shit!”
