The Last Paragon in the Apocalypse

Chapter 1445: Spending Time With Lista

Klaus waited for Lista to start speaking.

She is shy, but being asked about something she is fascinated by should at least trump her shyness. If she can’t get over that, then maybe she is a lost cause.

”I only recently finished reading it, but it talked about how containerizing your mind can, in ways, expand your thinking abilities. He believed the idea of cognitive overload only happens when the mind is not structured to be able to handle a lot of things at the same time.”

Klaus nodded and smiled. ”It seems he is onto something. However, how does he hope to achieve the structure he talked about?”

”In the write-up, he believed if the mind could be cultivated and replicated, then the complex structure can be achieved. He went ahead and added a dynamic matrix that can allow you to have more than one mind.”

Klaus smiled to himself, knowing that while the Hivemind may be a mystery to even his eighth incarnation, because he shared the same soul as the first Paragon, he may have considered it subconsciously.

The Hivemind is real. So far, he can use 500 minds simultaneously. He had no idea how much stronger he could become, but he knew he hadn’t even scratched the surface yet.

If he can one day use 1 million minds simultaneously, there is no telling what he cannot achieve.

”So what do you think? Do you think it is possible to clone the brain and create a network between them?”

Lista looked at him for a few minutes before she nodded. ”I have pondered on this book a few times, and at every turn, all I think of is how to contain that many minds if there is only one big head on your body,” she smiled, knowing her words are silly.

However, Klaus merely smirked and said:

”It is indeed silly for you to think that way. However, it is not impossible. The mind is more versatile than you think. Instead of seeing it as a small bottle, see it as a vast space or even a domain where thousands of them can be stored.

This also means if you can first cultivate your mind space to expand vast enough that more minds can be stored in, then cloning your mind, or however you see it, can be achieved.”

”If you put it like that, then this book makes some sense. However, how sure are you that the mind space can be cultivated to the level that infinite minds can be cloned and stored?

Not forgetting how to clone the mind. Is it even possible?”

”You would have to figure that one out yourself. All I know is that if you can cultivate your mind space to grow expansive, adding more minds to it won’t be impossible.”

”Thank you for this insight. I will ponder on it for now.”

Klaus nodded. He knew telling her about the Hivemind would be the death of her. There is no way the heavens will allow such a forbidden technique to be revealed casually.

The Hivemind broke every rule in the book. If she were to know about it and how to cultivate it, then if the heavens don’t kill her now, she would most certainly face them in the future.

But if she can figure things out by herself, then even if she can’t replicate the Hivemind, she might just end up opening a whole different world of mind cultivation.

The rules didn’t prohibit her from finding a way to grow stronger.

”So aside from the peace and quiet, why else do you come here?”

”I just like being on my own. It feels good to not be disturbed.”

”Aside from that, what else? I know you didn’t just choose to come here for just that. If you really want not to be disturbed, you can just enter seclusion.” Klaus moved his head closer and asked, ”What are you hiding, Lista?”

She moved her head away from Klaus and turned her body. ”N-Nothing.”

Klaus laughed and stood up. Then he walked back to the edge of the mountain and let out a heavy sigh. ”Do you want to escort me to the Falling Isle?”

The Falling Isle is one of the three mysteries of Planet Caelmir. It has existed since the start of life on this planet, and long after Magnus left and returned, it was still there.

Magnus had heard of it many times, but because of the limited life he lived back then, he never had the chance to see it.

Now that he had returned, it was only right for him to go to all the places he hadn’t had the chance to visit back then. ”Could be fun, you know. I like to talk about complex things just like you. I may not know you personally, but I have seen enough to know you aspire to become a scholar.

As it happens, I was briefly invited to join the Knowledge Tower. That means I know quite a lot, and if you are willing, I can take you under my wing and teach you a thing or two.”

Lista didn’t reject his proposal like she would have if this were just anyone asking.

However, the idea of being seen around with a man made her feel uncomfortable. Lista isn’t exactly the kind of person who loves to be seen around, especially with a man.

That would create a scandal. However, as Klaus said, she indeed aspires to become a scholar, so there’s no way she would turn down such a good offer.

Already, she is fascinated by the life of the Paragon. She wants to know more about all of him.

There is just no way she would turn down this offer to know more about Klaus, who at the moment is a redhead with a handsome appearance.

”Okay.”

They left the mountain and made their way toward the Falling Isle. Since Klaus had nothing to do now, roaming around sounded like a good thing.

Rory had already become friends with Mio and Miko, so she started moving around with them. She seemed to be having a good time with them, so Klaus didn’t bother asking her to follow him.

However, after spending the whole day walking from one place to the next, Klaus and Lista returned to the estate, where his wives were spending time with the one person he wanted to see most.

When he arrived a week ago, he learned his uncle was in seclusion. However, there was someone else he had forgotten about. He forgot about his grandma.

It turned out he didn’t choose to forget; rather, it was the backlash of losing her god core. She was the queen of the Death Angel race. Her divinity arose from the faith her people had in her.

So suddenly losing her divinity was akin to ripping out her soul and identity. From time to time, she gets lost in time and wanders for a few days before returning.

Until she accepts her fate and lets go of her rank as a god, returning to the immortal stage, she would continue to experience this until she vanishes completely.

Klaus was happy to see her, but when he learned of her illness, his mood changed. He instantly knew the bastards involved in her predicament must die, and her law core must be returned to her.
