I.. Am God?

Chapter 48 Arrival Of Scholars



"There is a box there. Inside is a blank book and beside it is any type of writing method that you are proficient at." Denos pointed to the table beside his desk and taught him how to do things.

He then picked a blank book inside the box and his quill pen that came from a wisdom owl that inhabits the God's Land with his special ink that was made from the nectars of the Preaching Plants and ink from a Spiritual Squid. When the two materials were mixed, it created a swirly-like ink that induces calmness and strengthens the mental capabilities of the looker.

He dipped the quill pen in the ink, and miraculously, the quill absorbed the ink. The quill then emitted a beautiful sparkly light and entered his forehead, establishing a connection with him.

He gently placed the tip of the quill pen on the center of the paper and closed his eyes. He moved the pen with elegance and what made Aleister shocked was the pages filled on itself with detailed precision.

The book glowed for a moment and closed in itself. Denos picked it up and placed it on a corner. "You can write that fast?" Aleister gawked.

"I was merely testing you before." Denos chuckled. "Mastering the Dao of Literature and Calligraphy, I could do those things effortlessly."

"May I presumptuously ask if I can learn calligraphy from you, Senior?" Aleister asked carefully, avoiding offending the man, "If you're rightful for it, then I'll teach you. But you have to prove yourself first!" Denos smiled and laughed.

Aleister bowed and retrieved a blank book and a brush and ink. He walked towards one of the tables and sat to work.

The archway portal lit up once more and a scholarly old man walked with a calm pace and an approachable aura.

Aleister noticed the smell of a scholar and raised his eyebrows, but returned to writing.

"Greetings, gentleman. Where am I? What is this place?" The old man asked respectfully.

"A scholarly man from the Zhou Period of Earth? Interesting." Denos analyzed the man from top to bottom. "You are inside the Hall of Knowledge, a library that connects to all worlds, past, present, and future." Denos smiled.

He tinkered the portal and placed some of his comprehension on the Law of Time there. As a result, the Hall of Knowledge opened in different pasts, this domain's present, and the various different timelines of the future except for this direct timeline.

Now, the first Random Passage opened in a different past. A Zhou personage appeared inside.

Denos assumed his scholarly aura and straightened his back. He cupped his fist in greeting and bowed towards the scholar, "Greetings, Taigong Wang Jiang Ziya. You are in the Hall of Knowledge, storing the language of all realms. I am Denos, the Keeper of The Hall. Your fame is renowned throughout all timelines." Denos spoke fluently and poetically in Old Chinese.

"I am but a humble old man who served the Kings Wen and Wu in my lifetime and seek new knowledge. I thank you for your high evaluation." Jiang Ziya replied humbly.

"You could read and contribute knowledge in this Hall. You are free to do whatever you want." Denos said.

"Sure. Excuse me." Jiang Ziya nodded and browsed the books that Denos wrote.

A number of clueless people also entered. Some were curious, but some were scared and left immediately.

A while later, Jiang Ziya returned and asked, "Could I borrow a brush and a blank bamboo scroll?"

Hearing that, Denos nodded and reached below his desk. He showed Jiang Ziya a small and flat board, "Place your hand here, please." He nodded and placed his hand. A small needle pricked his finger, letting a small drop of blood to land on the board.

Suddenly, an elegant and scholarly brush appeared on the board. Jiang Ziya touched it and was instantly mesmerized, "I feel that this brush is destined to me. Thank you for this, gentleman." Denos handed Jiang Ziya blank bamboo scrolls and let him do his thing.

After that, a lot of scholars and geniuses from all over the domain from the past, present, and future made their way into the Random Passages generated in their time. Even China's First Huangdi arrived to read and contribute knowledge.

When the number of visitors reached a hundred, Denos announced, "To all the people, please do not divulge the existence of this place to anyone, otherwise we will be bound to hunt you down in your homeworld and erase you from existence."

Now, The Hall of Knowledge has become peaceful and harmonious. It was slowly being filled up with books and scrolls.

Outside the Hall of Knowledge, on the Creation Platform, Matthias met with Nuwa, "Nuwa, can signals go past the invisibility barrier?"

"Yes. The only use of the barrier is to conceal the domain until it fully integrates with the galaxy. Although physical entities like spaceships and people are going to be shredded if they go past the barrier, signals like transmissions and the internet could still go past." Nuwa nodded. "Why?"

"The technology of Earth is too backwards and shallow. I need the fast processing technologies of Betania." Matthias smiled. Hearing that, Nuwa nodded with understanding.

Matthias descended to the Eisenhower Mansion. Unlike before, The Eisenhower Mansion became even more guarded. Fleets of eye-sized drones flew above the mansion, guarding all of its perimeters. Combat and Anti-spacecraft Mechs patrolled the perimeters of the place. Beam launchers surrounded the important parts of the mansion.

Compared to the last family of 15, the Eisenhowers now numbered to a hundred, with sub branches all around the galactic territories.

The current patriarch of the family was Andrew Eisenhower, Matthias' great-great-great-great grandson and the current President of The Betanian Galactic Federation. When the Eisenhowers entered politics, the opposing parties dreaded and backed out of the match.

By now, Andrew was in his 45th year of rule. The Eisenhower Mansion became the center of command of the Federation. Surrounding the mansion was both the political and military center of the planet.

As centuries had already passed since the Betanian Galactic Federation entered space colonization, different factions have already been created. Rebellions were started and currently, there are three Federations leading the space colonization, competing with each other. Wars have also been waged between Betania and the Magic Worlds that assembled the Arcana Alliance, in which the war entered a stalemate.

When Matthias entered the Ancestor Basement that he secretly created, he saw that it was empty. He knew that the Ancestor was going to be Aleister as he promised Matthias to serve the family.

Now that he was gone, he was skeptical. But when he noticed the spatial fluctuations in the door, he immediately knew that he received one of the keys to the Hall. He shook his head and smiled wryly, "Really an MC. Even treasures pick him."
