Chapter 528: Chapter 528 Original Sin Sage_1 Chapter 528: Chapter 528 Original Sin Sage_1 Original Sin Sage?

It sounds like something a learned person would be called.

It does match my temperament quite well.

Facing the prompt that appeared before him, Fu Qian nodded solemnly.

The various illusory images in his eyes were now gradually fading, clearly indicating that the last ripple from the Starry Prism was disappearing.

Is this the only reward for this journey?

Fu Qian looked at the trait in his hand that didn’t even have a name.

Obviously, compared to his previous gains, this thing was somewhat different.

And the conditions to see it were undoubtedly very strict.

The effect of the prism, plus maximal Inspiration, was the only thing that allowed him to perceive its existence.

From this angle, the merged Original Sin Sage indeed felt like a hidden profession.

I’ve been a demigod for quite some time; it is indeed time to end my blank-slate days.

Fu Qian quickly made a decision.

Always being in a blank state unavoidably brought certain restrictions to my actions.

Most importantly, it seems I don’t have another choice now.

The traits I have painstakingly accumulated over many days have just been completed, and who knows when I’ll acquire the next one.

So, how should I merge them?

Fu Qian weighed the object in his hand, recalling the instructions of the Abyssal Mist.

The next moment, he opened his mouth and tossed the object inside.

The review was ‘melts upon entry.’
This bizarre trait turned intangible and immaterial the instant it entered his mouth.

And the next moment, Fu Qian felt an indescribable sense of calm spreading through him.

Every cell in his body seemed to be rapidly silencing, and his consciousness began to fade as well.

In an extremely short period of time, Fu Qian lost his ability to locate his own body and couldn’t differentiate any part from another.

Even his sense of self seemed to spread out, dividing and dispersing into every cell.

That feeling of being isolated from both time and space appeared once again, pervading his entire being as if he had transformed into that unique domain of darkness.

Fortunately, this strange state did not last long, and the next moment, Fu Qian felt points of starlight emerging from within his body.

The starlight quickly formed lines and then interwove in indescribable ways.

The silenced cells, under such guidance, began to converge and revive according to an incomprehensible logic, becoming active once again.

It was like a blank disc being inscribed upon.

For an instant, Fu Qian seemed to understand the meaning of being a blank slate.

Not until the sound of his heartbeat came once more did his drifting consciousness finally coalesce.

Is this what it feels like to have chosen a major?

Fu Qian clenched his fist, looking at the prompt that appeared before him.

[Original Sin Sage]
[All things harbor sin unknowingly, yet the sage grows powerful through awareness.]
This seems completely different from the Goddess of Sin and Punishment.

Growing powerful through awareness, am I finally going to become a man who battles with his mind?

Fu Qian silently nodded, then continued to read.

[Judgment, when you attack a target harboring original sin, you will ignore its defenses]
[The sin is determined; those you attack harbor original sin]
Hold on, this doesn’t quite fit the style!

Fu Qian’s eyebrows twitched.

[Insight, devour the target, and temporarily gain a portion of its abilities]
…

Having reviewed the three skills he gained due to solidifying his form, Fu Qian found them quite unexpected.

They were indeed powerful, but stylistically off, and vastly different from the sage he had pictured.

First off, two out of the three skills are passive.

Furthermore, with Judgment combined with Set in Sin, doesn’t that mean ignoring defense against all targets? There’s always something a bit quirky about that.

Especially Set in Sin, no matter how you look at it, it’s filled with an overbearing aura that says if you’re accused of being guilty, then you’re guilty.

And then there’s the ability acquisition after devouring–is this the Sage’s way of learning?

Although I’ve often used this approach before.

Overall, this new form is–just amazing!

Fu Qian felt extremely satisfied with the choices he had made a moment before.

First off, with the new abilities boosting his stats, his damage-dealing capacity had undoubtedly leaped even higher.

At the same time, the feeling of slapping people in the face with a book was just too fitting for his style.

Fu Qian finally felt that the one hundred plus SAN Points and the several lost collectibles weren’t wasted at all.

Speaking of which… Fu Qian thought for a moment and then strode toward the back of the warehouse.

Even the main body is gone?

A moment later, he returned without success, having found no trace of 1-005.

It seems that with the Void Erosion Scepter shattered, the source of that power had also disappeared.

Speaking of which, there seemed to have been a similar situation before.

Fu Qian silently pondered, recalling another instance where, after completing a task, he was also unable to find a certain item.

That last time he was thrown into the World Within the Painting, dealing with a cosmic beauty during that task.

Actually, Fu Qian had later specifically checked and found no area that resembled that place.

That place was clearly not the same as the world where he ran a bookstore.

And this time, the Furnace seemed to be of the same ilk.

The common point between the two was that they were both more chaotic than this world, barely clinging to life.

So, was I also interfered with by something last time?

No wonder there was that strange choice between two rewards.

That completed Demigod ritual probably has some tricks up its sleeve!

Had I truly chosen, it’s hard to guarantee what would have happened.

Indeed, confidence is key for a man!

Although I currently have no clues about who’s messing with me, it’s not a big deal.

Of course, the greatest gain from this trip has to be Edlar’s notes.

Some of my past speculations have finally been confirmed this time.

And if, for instance, the warehouse pulled more than one person from my world, then the bracelet and mirror I encountered before could very likely be the work of a “predecessor.”

However, I’ve been here for quite a while and have found no trace of anyone else’s presence in the warehouse.

I wonder if these people all met with problems and died in the line of duty like Edlar, or if the warehouse has some strange power that prevents us from crossing paths.

In any case, there are clearly many more secrets to this warehouse.

[Thank you for your work, you may rest early this week]
As I pondered, another prompt appeared before me.

Oh? If I’m not mistaken, I’ve only worked for three days this week.

Considering the severe work injuries, are they letting me rest early as compensation?

I have no objections to such a humane policy.

Although there were only three tasks this week, their intensity was indeed not low, with even one that I nearly didn’t come back from.

Taking a break is indeed justifiable.

The only question is, where should I rest?

“Hey, hey, something’s not right, Fu Qian!”

The urgent call at my ear brought me out of my thoughts, and as I opened my eyes to look over, I saw Tan Ying with an anxious look on her face.

Today, out of character, she wore a simple elegance in her long skirt, complemented by a touch of makeup, her entire presence soft and lovely.

“What’s wrong?”

Fu Qian asked calmly.
