I, the wizard, the foolish Buddha

The old man smiled, then leisurely took out his magic wand and casually pointed it at the Captain of the Knights and the others. The Captain of the Knights and the others immediately fainted.

At this moment, the two sisters also turned to look at him. They were stunned for a moment, then burst into tears and rushed over: "Father, I thought you were dead!"

"How could I be? I didn't sacrifice myself. I just went down to finish the job. However, that guy Darak really wants me, so it took a little effort."

The old man chuckled and patted the two sisters on the back, comforting them.

He took out a piece of paper and wrote a sentence on it. Then, he ignited the Dawn Holy Fire in his hand and burned the paper.

If Roland were here, he would have recognized that this paper was a page from the Book of Aleya.

Discarding the ashes in his hand, the old man said, "Finally, the loop is completely closed."

The elder sister's eyes flickered slightly, and she asked, "Father, has the Lord already been born? Can everyone become the God of Aleya now?"

The father carefully looked at the elder sister and sighed, "You have been in the church all these years, and your talent has been wasted.

However, once Roland has completely perfected the 'Aleya Wizard's Path', you will still have a chance to step into the fourth Gate of Truth on this path... A true Gate of Truth."

After a pause, the old man looked at the lake: "This well will lead to a true future."

The elder sister couldn't help but be stunned for a long time.

She asked if she could become the Lord's angel, but her father told her to walk the Path of Truth and cultivate into a god.

Malrod Reservoir

The lake surface at night was very beautiful, with the starry sky reflected on the water, and many glowing creatures floating on the surface.

Suddenly, huge ripples appeared on the water surface, followed by a huge figure emerging from the bottom of the water.

Upon closer inspection, it wasn't just one person, but four. The man was holding two women and carrying a girl on his back.

It was unknown how deep they had surfaced from, but the girls coughed incessantly after emerging from the water, looking pale like drowning victims.

If the man hadn't been holding them, these fellows would have fainted in the water.

These four people were Roland and the others. When they were pulled into the well together by Olyle, many thoughts flashed through Roland's mind.

He even suspected that Olyle and the old swindler were in cahoots, deliberately pulling him into the well.

Facts proved that Roland was overthinking things. Olyle's actions were purely due to a mistake.

He thought he was doomed this time. After all, according to Roland's logic, something bad would happen as long as he jumped into the well.

Even if this logic was wrong, he would definitely encounter big problems entering the well, because this well was very deep, reaching the deepest part of the underlying world, and there, a large butterfly was sleeping.

But nothing happened!

What was even stranger was that usually when Roland meditated through the Aleya Codex, he could see the Aleya projection from the underlying world.

This time, he directly penetrated into the deepest world. Logically, he should have seen the big butterfly and then fallen into complete madness, but he didn't see anything.

It was as if the thing hidden in the underlying world had suddenly disappeared.

Moreover, Roland didn't go crazy during this deep dive into the underlying world. He was in his element.

— Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough, cough…

Catherine and the others started coughing. Their condition was the same as Roland's after diving deep into the underlying world. Moreover, they seemed to have swallowed a lot of water when they first came up from the bottom of the lake.

During the coughing, Roland carried the three of them into the air. Then, he took out his magic wand and, like treating drowning victims, slowly drew the water out of their stomachs.

When Olyle was teleporting, she was aiming to leave the ruins. However, due to accidentally falling into the vortex of the underlying world, the group got lost in the underlying world.

In the underlying world, the group struggled for a long time.

Even the best sailor would drown in a whirlpool of the sea. Even a fish would faint in such a vortex.

Unless it was a sea monster that lived in such a storm.

Roland was such a sea monster.

Therefore, Catherine and the others couldn't hold on after struggling for a while, but Roland was fine.

Not only was he fine, but he also easily found the right direction and led the three out of the sea of the underlying world.

After leaving the underlying world, the group directly appeared in the large reservoir outside the ruins—or rather, in the deep sea.

The reservoir was very deep. Even with Roland's physical strength, he felt enormous pressure. Judging from the pressure he casually measured, even a submarine would be crushed like a soda can at such a depth.

Catherine and the others' physical condition was already very poor, and they were in a state of delirium. During Roland's process of bringing them up, the three of them swallowed a lot of water.

With Catherine and the others' physical qualities, they wouldn't drown even if their stomachs and lungs were filled with water.

But it would be very uncomfortable.

Roland used his magic wand to remove the water that the three had swallowed, and then laid them flat on the water. Then, he took out his snake ring.

The snake ring had Catherine's magic seal on it, which Roland had been working on for a long time without completely breaking it. But now that Roland and the others were in a strange combined state, Roland easily broke the magic seal.

Soon, Roland took out several bottles of potions from the snake ring.

These potions were brought by Diana from the Holy Spirit Monastery. This kind of medicine was specially used to treat Dementia, and it was a special medicine for severely ill patients like Diana.

Catherine and the others' condition was far from reaching the level of Dementia. Not long after drinking it, their complexions improved a lot.

Catherine and the others' rationality had not completely returned to normal. Roland sat alone on the water and rummaged through the dimensional bag.

Soon, he took out a palm-sized 'crest' from the dimensional bag.

This crest was Olyle's Crest of Sincerity, or rather, the Divine Seal of Sincerity.

The crest was slightly different from before. When Roland first saw this crest, it was an unknown crest pattern.

But now it had become an angelic image formed by abstract aggregates. This image was slightly similar to 'Dawn's Light,' but one could tell it was an angel.

Roland thought to himself: "It seems that it has absorbed a lot of divine power. Olyle is a troublemaker even if she hasn't been brainwashed by the gods. I should keep this for her for now."

"I don't know how to use these divine powers, but the East Territory must have a way to utilize them."

Roland couldn't help but recall the scene of Aurelia advancing after absorbing divine power.

This Crest of Sincerity was just casually picked up by Roland.

After the collapse of the Well of Faith, the divine power and crest within the well also fell into the vortex of the lower world.

The crest hadn't completely absorbed all the divine power, so the divine power dispersed everywhere after entering the lower world.

When Roland was traveling through the labyrinth in the lower world, he sensed the power of Sincerity dissipating everywhere, so he followed the trail to the place where the power of Sincerity was the strongest, and sure enough, he found the crest there.

Falling into the lower world was an extremely dangerous thing, but not only did Roland feel relaxed and comfortable while wandering in the lower world, but when he left, he even grabbed the crest like catching a clam.

The newest novels are first published on 69shu8!

Roland now even had a feeling—as long as there are 'parameters' plus the magic calculation matrix, he could retrieve anything from the lower world!

Repairing the Well of Faith was also not a problem at all.

Roland didn't know how Darrick usually worked, but Roland felt that as long as there was enough magic power, he could do anything Darrick could do!

Even better than Darrick.

Putting away the crest, Roland sighed inwardly: "I'm definitely not normal now!"

Roland firmly believed that he had a problem, but he couldn't find anything wrong.

He mentally asked Diana to use the quiz machine to divination his current state.

Before long, Roland felt a thought transmitted from Diana: ["Young master, the divination result is very strange."]

Roland's heart skipped a beat, and he responded: ["How strange is it?"]

Diana said: ["It tells you to check an oil painting inside the Miss's ring, a painting with a book in it. According to the divination, after you finish reading this book, you will 'hear the answer' later."]

Roland came to Catherine's side with a puzzled face and took off the ring on her hand.

Senior Sister usually often peeps at Roland, often secretly checking Roland's small treasury. This was the first time Roland had peeked at Senior Sister's things.

If Roland wasn't so preoccupied now, he felt he should be very excited now.

The inside of Senior Sister's ring was completely different from Roland's Serpent Ring. It was like a Rubik's Cube, with many small spaces.

Roland even found many areas of the Dark Abyss Forbidden Forest inside, including the area where the Shepherd Tree was located, the Pathfinder's Cabin, etc., all in small spaces.

Soon, Roland discovered a very strange space among those small spaces—it was two-dimensional! Like a painting.

In the painting was a small house, which looked very familiar to Roland. But Roland couldn't remember it for a while.

The painting was dynamic. Faintly, Roland even saw a figure in the window of the small house in the painting—it seemed someone was tidying up the room.

"Could it be this painting? It seems that only this space is in the form of a painting. What kind of magic is this? It's so amazing!"

Roland couldn't help but recall the magic that Senior Sister had used to turn the house into a piece of paper.

Now, Roland could already understand that magic. It's just that he wasn't going in that direction, so he wasn't good at that kind of magic.

Or rather, this kind of arcane forbidden magic with strong logic was not suitable for him. He was suitable for those illogical, crazier things.

But although he wasn't good at this kind of magic, he could already understand it. But he couldn't understand this magic!

Roland thought he was getting closer and closer to Senior Sister, but now he felt there was a chasm like heaven and earth between him and Senior Sister.

This magic gave Roland a feeling of directly reaching the truth. It was as if it contained a trace of the profound meaning of the essence of the world.

Roland wanted to take out this painting, but he tried several methods and none of them worked.

Roland speculated: "It seems that there are some very confidential and very private things hidden in this painting, which can only be taken out by Senior Sister herself. However, I am now one with Senior Sister, hehe."

After thinking about it, Roland summoned Diana and the seven servants, and asked them to watch Catherine and the others first. Then, while Senior Sister was still unconscious, Roland drilled into the painting in her ring.

The moment he came into contact with this painting, Roland felt an extremely wonderful experience. His body was blocked outside the painting and remained motionless there—as if it was staying in the event horizon of a black hole.

But his spirit seemed to jump into the water. Suddenly, Roland felt himself stumble and fall to the ground.

Rubbing the back of his head, Roland found that he had actually entered the house!

This cabin was extremely strange. After Roland came in, he felt that all the magic and power in his body were sealed.

What shocked Roland even more was that he couldn't understand this seal at all.

It was as if his power wasn't sealed, but had disappeared—at this moment, Roland felt like a novice apprentice who hadn't even entered the door.

'What a powerful restriction! If a thief breaks in, he will be played to death. Senior Sister only needs to leave a clone here, with not much strength required, to easily deal with the thief!'

‘What kind of sealing magic is this? It's so amazing? It seems I was too arrogant before, and I still have to be more humble in the future and learn more from Senior Sister.’

Roland sat up from the ground and began to observe this 'secret room' that Senior Sister had built in the ring.

This place looked a bit familiar.

Not far in front of Roland was a small table, with some books and several pots of magic herbs on it—including a pot of Mermaid Grass.

Senior Sister was obviously studying Mermaid Grass recently. With Roland's eyes as a master of magic herbs, he could tell at a glance that Senior Sister's cultivation had problems.

Roland couldn't help but laugh secretly: 'After so many years, Senior Sister is still entangled in this matter? And the research direction seems to be wrong. This guy really hasn't made any progress, but is getting more and more regressive.'

In front of the table was a shelf, filled with some plates, wooden bowls, wine, 'wine glasses', and other messy daily necessities.

On both sides of the table were windows and a wardrobe. From the window, you could see the huge silver fir tree outside, and it seemed that owls were cooing and yelling on the tree.

The door of the wardrobe was open, and there were some very fashionable witch costumes, hunting outfits, noble costumes, and so on.

It seemed that someone had just been picking out clothes and changing clothes.

'Hey! I remember, this is Valeria's cabin! Unexpectedly, after so many years, Senior Sister has been collecting this cabin, even the furnishings, furniture, and clothes are exactly the same as before!'
