After a general exploration, Hulim discovered that while the content covered almost all fields, there were roughly distinct sections for different areas.
The further she went, the more obvious these divisions beca.
This was likely because later visitors, when inscribing their own work, habitually carved content related to their respective fields in relevant sections—making the divisions more distinct over ti.
Among the many sections,
Hulim chose a few that interested her most:
the History Section, the Magic Section, and the Magic Circle Studies Section.
First was the History Section—
the largest in the Corridor of Sages. On second thought, this made sense:
most of those who went to the trouble of coming here were sohow involved in archaeology.
The content in the History Section was diverse, with most of it being obscure unofficial history. This might seem strange to later generations, but putting herself in their shoes—if she were a top scholar of her era,
would she inscribe common sense known even to illiterates of her ti?
Absolutely not!
She would definitely record hidden truths known only to herself—discoveries that were astonishing even in her own era.
Though future generations might argue that the common sense of her ti was more valuable......
Next was the Magic Section. It contained a wide variety of spells—improved or developed by visitors to the tower over the ages, ranging from First-Rank to Sixth-Rank, covering all seven elental attributes.
The effects of these spells were countless; many were things Hulim had never heard of before.
Undoubtedly, this section would be the most helpful to her.
She wouldn’t need to search for high-rank magic elsewhere for a long ti to co.
Finally, the Magic Circle Studies Section.
Among all the sections, this one had the most complex knowledge. Many of the theories involved were completely unfamiliar to Hulim—understanding, let alone mastering them, would be extrely difficult.
However,
if she could truly learn sothing from it, her attainnts in magic circles would surely advance by leaps and bounds......
The tale has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
The content recorded in the Tower of Ages was truly a massive treasure trove, astonishing beyond words.
Naturally, Hulim decided to make this precious place her main training ground for the foreseeable future.
......
So ti passed.
During this period, Hulim had gradually grown accustod to life underground.
She traveled back and forth between the Mana Pool and the ruined tropolis every day,
and her body was slowly recovering......
"......Fireball."
Boom!
A fireball materialized in the air, crashed into the cave wall, and exploded into a burst of flas.
"Great! I can finally cast Second-Rank Magic again!"
Recovering the ability to use Second-Rank Magic put Hulim in a cheerful mood. She decided to treat herself to a feast of Bopom cuisine.
She went to the familiar riverbank in the ruined tropolis.
At the sight of this notorious intruder, the Bopoms imdiately had a stress response—
hopping away quickly, their transparent bodies tensing up tightly,
letting out urgent "Bom, bom" warnings.
Yet they hadn’t been able to fend off Hulim when she couldn’t use Second-Rank Magic—let alone now.......
So ti later,
after savoring her satisfying Bopom feast,
Hulim returned to the Tower of Ages.
"Oh? This person recorded the history of the gods?"
In the History Section, she discovered sothing unusual.
However, the content she deciphered left her deeply shocked......
"......Himmler is ho to six gods. This is what we’ve been told since birth, and I once firmly believed that these six gods have existed since the beginning of ti."
"But when I beca an archaeologist specializing in ancient ruins, this belief gradually wavered......"
"My first doubt arose when I discovered an ancient ruin dungeon from a bygone era."
"The records in that ancient dungeon only ntioned three gods: Mother Earth Goddess Terra, God of Order Taita, and Goddess of Life Helim. There was no trace of the other three."
"At the ti, I was only confused. But as I discovered more and more ruin dungeons in the years that followed, I noticed an astonishing fact:"
"The records of the gods in ruins from different eras are completely different!"
"So ntion all six gods, so only five, so three. Most surprisingly, in a ruin from an era that cannot be dated, I found records of only one god—Mother Earth Goddess Terra......"
"Books can be fabricated, but ruin dungeons cannot lie! They are the truest history, sleeping underground!"
"So even though this hypothesis is bold, I must put it forward here:"
"The gods we worship today were once ordinary humans living on the surface, just like us. They beca gods later through so ans."
"I do not know what this thod is, but it may be closely related to the ranks of our magic."
"The highest magic rank we know is Sixth-Rank, but is that really the truth?"
"Could there be higher-ranked magic, and the secret of the gods lies within it......"
After deciphering the content, Hulim fell into a long period of contemplation.
Could it be...... that humans can beco gods?
But how exactly?
This person speculated it was related to magic ranks—could it be......
that there are higher-ranked magic in this world, and that is the key to becoming a god?
Yet if becoming a god required higher-ranked magic, why were there no rumors about it at all?
After thinking it over, Hulim felt that while magic ranks might be closely related to the gods, they were probably not the key to godhood.
For if at least five gods had beco divine through a thod related to higher-ranked magic, there would surely be similar rumors in the world.
But in reality, there were none.
From the content left by this person, it was clear that even a scholar who had explored nurous ruin dungeons had failed to find such clues.
"It looks like there are other people’s comnts later. I should read them first......"
Perhaps because the content was so shocking, a large number of discussions about this topic had been added after it......
