Chapter 788 - 357: History Projection

When mentioning this level of existence, the temperature in the room seemed to drop by a few degrees.

"’Dragon Head Ghost’ Chai Ye, that irritable lunatic has been in an especially foul mood lately." Uther’s shadow slightly trembled:

"He perceived the digging activities on the Fourth Layer, and then... well, you know his temperament."

Ron certainly knew.

Chai Ye was notorious among the Supreme Apostles for his brutality and capriciousness, and his favorite pastime was picking fights with people.

A group of Wizards making noise at his "doorstep" just gave him an excuse to vent.

And he knew that if he wanted to kill these people, certainly some Great Wizards monitoring the area would come to stop him.

"So you had to step in personally."

"Yes, before this, I conducted detailed predictions and simulations." Uther’s tone became more solemn:

"The results show that if I employ some special means, I have a seventy percent chance of repelling Chai Ye. This probability... is worth trying."

Saying this, the old professor took out a storage crystal emitting silver light from his pocket:

"Moreover, this experience provided me with an excellent teaching material. Ron, would you like to witness firsthand a battle with a Supreme Apostle?"

Within the crystal seemed to be a miniature galaxy, countless light points slowly rotating inside.

But upon closer observation, one would find those light points were not stars, but some kind of more complex information structures.

"This is the complete memory I extracted from that battle, including thought process, casting sensations, and even some analyses of Chai Ye."

A glint of expectation flashed in Uther’s eyes:

"Through your adaptive simulation device, you can fully experience how a Mystic Scholar fights with a Supreme Apostle. And most crucially..."

He paused for a moment, his voice growing mysterious:

"If your comprehension is high enough, perhaps you can learn the ’Historical Projection’ technique.

Although with your current abilities, you cannot fully master it, with my permission, you will be able to summon my void remains projection for assistance."

This proposal made Ron’s heart race, as Historical Projection is one of the most important advanced applications of ’Historical Research’ skills.

Moreover, judging by Uther’s expression, mastering this technique meant that within the range of its influence, he would have Great Wizard-level assistance at crucial moments.

As for the issue of comprehension... presently, he had not been worried about it.

"Of course, I am willing." Ron accepted the Memory Crystal, immediately feeling the terrifying energy contained within:

"However... why choose to teach me this now?"

Uther’s expression turned solemn:

"Because I performed divination for your next Abyss exploration. The results... are not very optimistic. You are very likely to encounter an Apostle-level existence."

Ron actually had been anticipating this himself.

According to his own divination, this encounter would likely be with the ’Eye of the Abyss’ Nari.

"In that case, let’s begin."

He stood up, a fire of knowledge-seeking burning in his eyes:

"I want to see what a real high-level battle looks like."

......

In a special lab at the Observation Station, the adaptive chaos simulation device was adjusted to an unprecedented precision mode.

Complex rune circuits spread like blood vessels on the device’s surface, each line pulsating with eerie light.

The entire device looked less like a mechanical creation and more like some living organ.

"Connecting this memory carrier requires extreme caution."

Uther’s shadow hovered beside the device:

"It contains not only visual and auditory information, but also part of my thought state at that moment. The mental impact on you... might be very severe."

Ron checked the safety systems of the device.

Triple-layer spiritual protection barriers were activated, and the emergency cutoff program was on standby.

"One more thing to remind you." Uther’s voice became even more serious:

"Although Chai Ye was repelled by me, that guy... did not exert himself fully. To him, this battle was more like a diversion. If he truly harbored a killing intent... so..."

The old professor didn’t finish his sentence, but the meaning was clear enough, hoping Ron would maintain sufficient reverence regarding the existence of Supreme Apostle-level entities.

"I understand." Ron nodded to show his understanding, then lay down into the simulation pod: "Let’s begin, Professor."

As the memory carrier was connected to the device’s core, the atmosphere in the whole lab changed horribly instantaneously.

The air became as thick as blood, the runes on the walls began to flash madly, emitting sounds similar to heartbeats.

Ron could hear some subtle whispering, as if there were countless voices softly murmuring beside his ears.

Reality started to distort.

......

Abyss Fourth Layer, Twisted Jungle.

When Ron, or him currently stepping into Uther’s perspective, opened his eyes, he was immediately stunned by the sight before him.

It couldn’t really be called a "forest", but more like the inside of some giant creature’s organ.

The "trees" were deformed columns made of blood vessels, tendons, and cartilage, each subtly pulsating, as if there was a heart beating inside.

The surface of these columns was covered with moist skin texture, dotted with tiny openings like sweat pores, continuously seeping thick bodily fluids.

The "branches and leaves" were mutant forms of various organs...

Huge eyeballs hung at the end of branches, pupils continuously rotating, watching every passing creature;

Heart-shaped fruits swinging in the breeze, each thumping movement emanating a dull drum sound;

And some tongue-like fleshy tendrils occasionally probing out to taste the flavor in the air.
