Warlock Apprentice

Chapter 105: Singularity Dispersive Meditation

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

“A singular point is the beginning and the end of all. Thousands of planes, overlapped worlds, initiate from a singular point. A singularity possesses infinite density, infinitely distorted time and space, as well as the possibility which was beyond discordant, to the extent of going for impossibility. This point represents everything in the universe. A spirit model built using such a point will carry an unimaginable trait from the start…”

Angor read the first two pages and frowned.

This Singularity Dispersive Meditation provided theories that sounded amazing… and incomprehensible. It gave Angor both limitless imagination and uncertainty about its realness. Could something like what the author described really be achieved?

“They really look like bragging to me,” Angor muttered to himself and shook his head. He kept reading on.

The next pages looked a lot more “ordinary”. They described how to calm the mind and suppress mental disorientation, and construct a stable spirit model in the brain.

Calming the mind, suppressing distractive thoughts, and building spirit model were three critical steps for someone to become an Apprentice Wizard. The book recorded a unique way to do it, a more complicated one compared to the channeling methods Angor saw in Sunders’ book room.

He continued. The book began telling an image of the constructed spirit model. The beginning was to draw a singular point, which surprised Angor much. This channeling method used a 36-dimensional space coordinate system!

It was known among wizards that deviation was a common thing to happen when building a spirit model in one’s brain. If there was a starting point, which lay one micron(0.0001 centimeters) to the left of the position where you wanted it to be, it would cause further errors as you worked on the model, possibly even resulting in a lower fitness level.

This “thirty-six-dimensional space coordinate system localization method” divided one’s brain into 36 major sections, and built a space coordinate system in each of the sections. Next, points, lines, and surfaces could be represented using coordinates in these sections.

This would help avoid the drawback of conscious spirit model construction methods commonly used today.

Still, such a method also had a big restriction. It was only applicable to a few selected people.

First, to use this method, one must be an expert at complicated numerical calculation, number induction and arrangement, and coordinate system mathematics. These were not hard for a formal wizard with advanced thinking abilities but could be quite a challenge for mortals. Only the geniuses of geniuses were able to meet this condition. The calculations were usually precise data pooling that started from the tenth digit after the decimal point. Only the best minds could handle them.

Besides, such mathematical thinking was not something that could be learned. People all had different data, so one had to conclude and refine his or her own. Even wizards were powerless to help others with it.

This condition alone already rejected 99% of all talents. The remaining 1% needed yet higher standards to be able to wield thirty-six-dimensional space coordinate system localization method.

The second condition was to have an extremely high sensitivity to space, which called for natural talent.

Was a spirit model built in actual space? No.

It was located in the space of one’s mind, a non-realism space. One would then construct the model from another dimension. This was why one must have a good sensitivity to space to meet this condition since one’s ability to think in different dimensions could not be represented. It required talent.

Someone with high mathematical thinking abilities and a talent for spatial cognition was able to use the thirty-six-dimensional space coordinate system localization method.

However, since this method had few suitable users, it was abandoned long ago and had since lost in history.

Angor was surprised he could find something like this here.

This channeling method did not seem too hard for Angor. He already was good at data analyzing. He might not be an expert at spatial thinking, but some of the applications in the hologram tablet could help him build the model.

He was sure that by using the tablet, he had 80% probability or more to learn the channeling method successfully.

Angor kept reading the notebook and saw some data on coordinate quadrant points in an existing spirit model. They were not helpful since Angor had not started to learn the method.

As Angor enjoyed himself in reading the book, the scripts halted abruptly.

The channeling method was only half-done. The remaining pages were blank! Also, Angor noticed that the two newest pages had relatively hasty handwriting on them as if the author was in a hurry.

Being in a hurry did not help the author finish the book.

Angor put down the unfinished book in disappointment. Still, from what was recorded, the book was already beyond priceless.

According to the author’s occasional comments, Angor made a small calculation that this half-done spirit model had a base fitness level of 30%!

As Sunders mentioned, the channeling method with the best baseline used in Brute Cavern, Montaus’ Octahedrite Channeling, could only guarantee a base fitness of 13%.

This unfinished Singularity Dispersive Meditation had the highest base fitness level among everything Angor knew of!

Too bad the progress of the book was only less than half. A complete one might provide a base fitness of 60% or more.

…

Thud, thud, thud…

As Angor expressed his mild disappointment, he suddenly heard a series of consistent steps from outside.

They carried a firm, familiar frequency.

Angor stopped his action. They sounded like… Sunders’ steps?

Angor heard such steps a lot when reading in Sunders’ book room, so he knew them well. These moderate, calm, yet oppressive steps were unique to Sunders.

Sunders came?

The real Sunders? Or the younger one?

Angor was unsure. He really hoped it was the former, or he would never know how to leave the Nightmare Realm.

Angor did not exclude the possibility that he was hallucinating or hearing the noise of a monster. Still, his instinct told him that the long-waited Sunders was outside.

Angor began to worry a little.

He was expecting Sunders, but also fearing that he was hearing things.

Angor turned off the recording function of his tablet. He left it on after the incident with the “strange wall”. After turning off the camera, Angor thought something over and decided to take the tablet off his wrist and hide it inside the pocket watch.

If Sunders was really out there, as a wizard, the man was very likely to notice the new object on Angor’s wrist. Angor put it away in advance so as not to expose it.
