This compensation was interesting.
Tang fiddled with the black-rimmed glasses in his hand, which looked like 3D glasses from a movie theater but felt like plastic. "Plastic? Did you use some of the power from underground?"
After all, plastic could be refined from petroleum. There was no more petroleum on this planet, so they could only use other methods to produce fuel and plastic-like things.
He remembered clearly that the Knowledge Wilderness had contaminated a portion of the Chaos Sea's power and taken away those 'oils.'
Despite this, after the System's processing and the given effect, Tang still tried them on. However, the scenery he saw hadn't changed at all. It should be that there were no nearby sources of contamination that would prevent him from looking directly.
'This was directly given by the main system,' the System explained, not seeking credit.
After all, it couldn't create such items.
"It came just in time..." Tang muttered.
The greatest effect of these glasses was probably not to isolate contamination in the real world.
Most of the contamination that could be isolated in reality came from divinity, from high-ranking beings.
Those truly indescribable things all resided in the starry sky above, jointly isolated from the planet by the seven gods. Without being able to break through the shackles, the effectiveness of the glasses was minimal. Just like the name of these glasses, 'Mosaic Glasses for Observing Stars,' at most it would make him unable to see the stars clearly.
The true purpose of these glasses was to prevent him from instantly dying because of accidentally seeing some indescribable thing when he was in the 'Observer' level.
'Observer' module, mosaic glasses—this 1.1 version upgrade of the System seemed to be tailor-made for him.
...However, the System itself was made for him, it was just that this update made the things that were updated more suitable for him.
Tsk, there were probably many pitfalls in this.
After all, the gifts bestowed by fate had long been marked with a price, and he just didn't know what the Knowledge Wilderness intended for him to do.
Kill a God of Crafts to liven things up?
Tang glanced at the System panel in front of him again and shook his head.
This System was probably still immersed in the mood of 'How am I so smart,' 'Hehe, another fleece,' 'Another wave of energy saved up.'
Emm, all he could say was that fools have foolish luck.
He should still regress and become a maggot. This world was really not a place for humans to stay.
Performing the maggot crawl on the bed a few more times, hugging the quilt and banging his head on the bed for a while, and then drinking a glass of milk before going to sleep, Tang was finally ready to 'die' peacefully.
A night without... nightmares.
Because of Amon, Tang's original plan to expand the enrollment plan to the entire Tingen was forced to stop.
He didn't want the students he recruited to say "Are you looking for me?" one by one. Would he be establishing a secret organization then, or developing new subordinates for Amon?
"This isn't a solution either."
Fiddling with the marionettes in the theater, Tang chatted with the System.
"We have to find a way to lure Amon away."
It wasn't easy for him to do things with Amon here, but it was also difficult to stay here.
Through the System's appraisal, Tang could confirm that no one in his castle had been parasitized by Amon, but Amon was called 'plague-like infection.' Flowers, plants, trees, and even birds and insects could be parasitized by the strange worms.
He had to find a way to monitor Amon, in a way that the other party absolutely couldn't detect.
'Difficult,' the System replied, 'Comprehensive, all-time, large-scale coverage appraisal would require countless appraisal attempts and knowledge fragments.'
Tang also knew that this was difficult to achieve.
Even if the System found all of Amon's avatars in Tingen, who knew how many more subordinates this Amon would develop by the next search?
His knowledge fragments couldn't withstand such a large consumption.
"It's a bit like being paranoid..." Tang fiddled with the spirit threads, smiling somewhat self-deprecatingly.
'After all, it's a King of Angels,' the System said, 'Host, relax, let's think...'
"So we have to find a way to obtain divinity in advance."
'??' The System typed a few question marks on the interface.
Tang stood up and dusted off the ash on his clothes.
He had to speed up his actions and open the 'Observer' module to deal with Amon in the way of an observer.
With such a big bomb next to him, he had dreamed of Amon all night yesterday.
He had been directly scared awake.
"Amon and the Thieves are really disgusting," Tang sincerely sighed.
None of the Gou family were good.
'...' Host, you're really ruthless, even scolding yourself.
'Then how about we switch to Mystic/Alchemist?' the System suggested, 'This should be the fastest way to obtain divinity.'
With its help, even if he hadn't fully digested the potion, there would be no problem advancing, at most a little crazy, a little silly...
Tang: "Sorry, but it's a hard pass."
He looked at his left little finger, where a ring was worn.
The prerequisite for opening the 'Observer' module, which was to advance to Sequence Four, could be broken down into [a large amount of spirituality + participating divinity].
Divinity resisted contamination and stabilized the state, while spirituality participated in the observation, becoming his anchor in that world to prevent him from being excluded.
This was an addition problem, but five plus five equals ten, and ten ones plus ten equals ten, the results were the same.
How to obtain a large amount of spirituality?
Naturally, by directly making a wish to the theater. Yesterday Once More charm, anyone?
This fleece wouldn't be wasted. For Tang as the proprietor, although he couldn't directly wish for heaven-defying desires like "obtain divinity, I also want to be this Miracle Worker," the level of the theater's Miracle Worker could still provide him with a lot of help.
...The already dead spirit worms should also be usable as charms, right?
If not, he could have the Scholar of Yore pull out some historical projections to liven things up.
"..." The surrounding marionettes silently moved a little further away from Tang.
"As for divinity."
Tang glanced at the System in front of him.
Wasn't there one right here?
Having eaten a Sequence Four Extraordinary characteristic, the System itself also possessed a certain 'divinity.'
Coupled with the demigod-level Extraordinary items in the System's storage and the System bound to his own spirit body, the things in the System's storage should also be considered part of him.
As long as he could pull the System into that world in the form of a spirit body, plus the Marksey glasses, there would be no problem.
The System completely froze, stunned by Tang's idea for three seconds.
'Ah, this, ah, this...' It typed out emoticons on the interface somewhat suspiciously, pointed at itself, and then showed the same stupid Patrick Star expression pack.
It? Let it go up?
"If possible, bring the theater core in too... can you calculate with algorithms if it's feasible?" Tang spread his palms, "If it really doesn't work, I'll think of another way."
The System crashed for a few more seconds, and then the sound of flipping pages came from Tang's mind.
'Ah, no, why is the plot different from what this System thought?'
Shouldn't it be that its host would cry and beg it, and then it would come to the rescue, using the powerful level of a high-level system to save its host from the fire and water, and finally reach the peak of its system life?
Or would the host be forced to embark on the path of advancing to Mystic or Alchemist, and then it would protect its host from the influence of madness in a powerful manner, with the host being deeply grateful and finally reaching the peak of its system life?
'??'
The System's small head was filled with big question marks.
Tang smiled: Basic operation, no need to show off.
Maybe he could also play a cameo in this True God BUG, after all, they were adjacent pathways, right?
Theater: Your conspiracy is too loud, it's hurting my eyes...
