Silver Lamp Weiser was naturally in the Upload Room, and she was even in the front row closest to the Great Skill on the bottommost level.
The internal surveillance system of the Transcend Building was highly sophisticated, covering optics, infrared, temperature, and beyond. The sensory information of each Transcend Believer was uploaded to the computational center, theoretically turning every believer into a walking surveillance device. With such a comprehensive security system, it was no wonder they did not believe in Ash and others' warnings, as no one had previously managed to infiltrate the building.
But Miracles existed precisely to transcend common sense.
It is worth mentioning that all the apparatuses in the Transcend Building were relics from the Gray Fox Era. In that glorious Era, fantasy constructs were used instead of ordinary ones whenever possible. For example, infrared monitors could have been made with pale constructs, but since indestructible fantasy constructs could be made, why opt for pale constructs that could degrade over time and be corroded by the environment?
In any nation, pale constructs were transitional products that appeared only in the early stages of civilization because they operated solely on real physical Laws without involving Void Realm Technique Spirits, and even mortals could produce them.
However, with an increase in the number of Mages, the production efficiency, yield rate, and effectiveness of fantasy constructs significantly surpassed pale constructs. Since the true functioning parts of fantasy constructs were Technique Spirits, not the constructs themselves, maintenance was incredibly simple—just spend money!
If a fantasy construct were a factory, then the Technique Spirit would be the worker. It didn't matter if the boss was replaced; as long as the money kept coming, the factory would keep running; it didn't matter if the factory exploded, as long as there was enough money, the workers could rebuild it themselves.
This self-repair feature was one of the reasons fantasy constructs completely dominated over pale constructs. Of course, unlocking this skill tree wasn't easy; only a few high-end luxurious constructs had this feature in the Blood Moon and Gospel, while the Gray Fox Era naturally popularized it to all items, otherwise, how could the Transcend Sect operate this building routinely?
Because of this, Weiser could easily hide inside the building. She wasn't just deceiving the optical and temperature monitors; she directly caused the Technique Spirit linked to the fantasy constructs to hallucinate.
No era could mass-produce Mysterious Mages like those capable of manipulating Fate, Truth, or Prophecy. Even with all sorts of defensive barriers prepared by the Gray Fox constructs, they were easily penetrated before the Truth Miracle.
In the eyes of the fantasy constructs and Transcend Believers, she was still a Transcend Believer. However, despite the miraculous illusion, she dressed exactly like the Transcend Believers, donning the Mecha with blue and white uniforms—after all, Ya Sha Jin was immune to the influence of Miracles and could directly see her true form; she had to completely disguise herself to avoid a sudden encounter.
Watching the two Great Skills at the center of the venue, Weiser was waiting for 19:45, the "mental method time". Several Gray Fox mental methods were passed around in the Senluo Wasteland, which involved a few minutes of self-massage and meditation to enhance physical and mental capabilities, but they hadn't gained widespread popularity due to their subtle impact.
However, in the Transcendence Worship, since believers needed to engage in lengthy brainstorming, which was a tremendous test on both mental and physical stamina, the importance of the mental method became very evident. During the execution of the mental method, they would close their eyes, massage specific pressure points on their heads with their fingers, and clear their minds of distractions—essentially leaving themselves entirely defenseless.
After experiencing a Transcendence Worship once, Weiser knew that the mental method time was the best opportunity for theft.
She stood in front of the railing, and although there were Sudoku patterns in front of her eyes, she was not pulled into the worship at all.
Tribulation, The Gods of Four Pillars, Transcend... no sect's worship could shake her soul.
Worship was for the weak to firm up their Beliefs and ideals, the strong needed no worship, as each of their actions was a worship of themselves.
She considered what kind of relationship Silver Lamp should have with Ash and Weiser and the Observer next.
An event was never just an event; its effects would spread to all the unseen corners. Once Ash made his grand appearance through the opportunity she provided, the Qinri Alliance would surely notice this versatile Host God plug.
To exploit Ash, the Qinri Alliance would not let him starve until he was sucked dry by the Blood Seed, but they wouldn't let him wander freely either—any sect would want a spokesperson capable of perfect Hosting.
With the support of a Spirit Mage on earth and her advice in the Void Realm, Ash didn't need to join any sect; just being a mercenary would make him a distinguished guest of the Qinri Alliance. Then, she would intentionally create trouble (she was going to steal other Great Skills anyway), allowing Ash to demonstrate his Combat Power; soon, Ash could become a renowned figure in Senluo.
What he would gain was not just prestige but also power.
Power was like sulfuric acid; if used in the right dosage, it could react benignly with Life; once it exceeded a certain limit, it could corrode anyone's mind.
Although Weiser hadn't spent much time with Ash, she realized that his spiritual vulnerabilities were minimal. In other words, he was easily satisfied; unless someone could capture him under severe interrogation or become his closest person, it would be difficult to completely empty him.
Frankly speaking, such individuals were very rare in the Senluo Wasteland.
In any sect or race, the desires of Senluoians were more blazing than the sun in the sky and deeper than the spirals of the earth. Weiser could navigate between sects because everyone had mental vulnerabilities.
Therefore, her first step was to make Ash into a flawed person, with power as the poison she prepared.
She liked those who were powerful yet imperfect, like people who favor beautiful but dependent pets.
Since he was not interested in ideals, she would let him taste the sweetness of power, and then...
Hmm?
Weiser abruptly looked up, knowing Ash and his group were waiting in the corridor. Thus, she transformed the Thousand Mechanism Technique Spirit into a Projection Technique Spirit, projecting the surveillance footage onto her pupils, enabling her to monitor Ash and the others in real-time and coordinate better with them.
Thus, she could see Harvey entering the Ice Cold Flowing Fire state, leaving Ash and others, and heading to another corridor.
Why?
She saw Ya Sha Jin lift Ash and assume a running stance.
Why?
She even saw the most rational Spirit Mage brewing a Miracle!
Why?
She had already provided the highest scoring correct answer, so why were they scribbling all over their test papers? It was one thing for the Necromancer and Ya Sha Jin, those two bloated Earth-bound creatures, but why wouldn't the Spirit Mage, who knew the heart and prioritized interests, stop Ash?
Was it because the world was too gentle on you, so you had to increase the difficulty yourself?
Even though Weiser was the calmest Truth Mage, a resolute Night Traveler, when she saw the Netherworld Knights spreading Despair and Ya Sha Jin charging with Ash in his arms, she couldn't help but feel helplessness about life's events and...
Anger towards fools!
How could you ruin my perfect plan!
Regardless of how Weiser internally raged, the pressure came to her the moment Ash took back the initiative.
She must make a choice!
Weiser nearly gritted her teeth, turning the Thousand Mechanism into a Flowing Light Technique Spirit, assembling the temporary Miracle: Flowing Light Flash!
Although the Spiritual Light Technique Spirit could form this Miracle, she would never use a skill already displayed in the Void Realm in reality.
As Ash fell from the sky approaching the Great Skill, she also became a streak of flowing light that burst into the arena!
She couldn't compete with Ash; without absolute strength, she couldn't ensure her victory over the perfectly original Host God!
In a flash, Ash touched the giant wolf flashing golden arcs, while Weiser touched the hamster entwined with blue arcs.
