Chapter 458: Chapter 56: Devouring the Great Detective—Morty Laine! The True Ultimate Move (Part 2)

The ability beyond the scope of the Divine Eye has just been eliminated.

As Shawn passed through the corridor ahead, a sudden dark curtain obscured everything. Within the pitch black, pairs of eerie eyes emerged, and an Angel’s Wings, densely covered with blood-red eyeballs, opened. The detective Morty Laine descended in the form of an angelic Evil Object, and upon its appearance, countless pieces of Activated Knowledge surged madly, starting to invade Shawn’s brain in an instant.

"Did you find me directly?" Shawn showed a wry smile.

If he hadn’t had someone backing him up, Shawn would have been devoured countless times by the detective Morty Laine.

However, he was no longer the same as before. The last time he encountered the detective Morty Laine, Shawn couldn’t even perceive the existence of Activated Knowledge, let alone know when his brain was possessed by the enemy.

But now Shawn’s brain had evolved. At the moment Morty Laine appeared, the originally dormant mysterious Knowledge in his brain started to operate insanely. They were like a gathered army, firmly protecting Shawn’s brain and blocking the polluted Activated Knowledge originating from the enemy.

"Alert! Alert!"

"Angel-level Evil Object detected—Detective Morty Laine!"

"Alert! Alert!"

"Pollution source detected! Target is invading the brain!... Unknown possession ritual detected!..."

Shawn was instantly plunged into an endless ocean of Knowledge.

This was a sea of Knowledge entirely composed of Activated Knowledge, yet it didn’t solely belong to the detective Morty Laine. Instead, it was filled with other Illusory Creations it had devoured. In the end, only one protagonist of the alive novel could survive, and undoubtedly, the detective Morty Laine was that final Evil Object. The indescribable illusions wouldn’t allow similar Laws to be mastered by others; either you were enslaved and dominated by it, or you became a part of it.

Buzz!

The brain trembled.

Numerous pieces of mysterious Knowledge formed silver-white runic engravings, encircling Shawn’s brain and forming a silver halo above his head. Beyond this ring of runes, he could see with the naked eye countless pieces of Activated Knowledge surging. They were all polluted, seeking opportunities to penetrate Shawn’s brain and nest inside.

Detective Morty Laine had no physical form; it wasn’t even considered a ghost or spirit. It had no fixed shape and didn’t exist in reality. It wanted to possess Shawn to descend its consciousness using his high inspiration and high talent, allowing it to manifest in the real world.

The enemy was overwhelmingly powerful!

Shawn almost had no strength to fight back, only able to hold on bitterly. Fortunately, he had accumulated enough Knowledge over time, or else detective Morty Laine could have easily invaded his brain again.

——Maze Library[Earthly Divine Kingdom]!

As Shawn’s rational line of defense was crumbling, everything around him suddenly began to change. The endless darkness gradually vanished, and pairs of blood-red eyes showed terrified expressions. The dark curtain they opened was overlapped by Space, and in a void, a magnificent and grand Maze Library descended.

"You are the Divine Favored!..." The detective Morty Laine murmured in terror.

Around Shawn, countless bookshelves appeared one after another. All the Magic Books that Shawn could not read originally became activated at this moment, and an overwhelming amount of Knowledge surged out. Some Magic Books, spewing the flames of Purgatory, burned with black mist, while others with tentacle-covered surfaces opened their pages, revealing rows of fangs. They crazily devoured the Activated Knowledge around them, which were detective Morty Laine’s essence. It was an illusory Evil Object composed of Activated Knowledge, and the more Activated Knowledge it had, the stronger it became.

——Confusion Domain[Extraordinary Domain]!

At this moment, Shawn launched a counterattack. He activated the Confusion Domain, but unlike its effect on others, this Domain only made the invading Activated Knowledge within his consciousness become lazy, fighting lethargically as if they had lost all morale. Every so often, some Activated Knowledge spinning in confusion hovered in mid-air.

This was a battle of Knowledge.

Both sides were contending based on their respective foundations. Detective Morty Laine had existed for nearly a millennium, devouring countless Illusory Creations. Logically, it possessed far more ’Knowledge’ resources than Shawn, even capable of crushing him utterly.

But Shawn had rapidly advanced during this period, and due to ’Quantum Reading,’ his accumulation of Knowledge was exceptionally swift.

Aemon had prepared the advancement Relic ’Su’en’s Brain’ for him, which contained a substantial amount of Spiritual Knowledge. It’s like eating countless pieces of Spiritual Knowledge, so adding the Quantum Reading of Arcane Magic, he now possessed a sliver of capability to confront the detective Morty Laine again.

Of course, the most crucial aspect of this battle was his external aid.

——Shawn[Divine Favored].

The battle between him and the detective Morty Laine was akin to a mental confrontation of immortal cultivators. The opponent invaded the spirit directly, and most attacks were ineffective against the formless Morty Laine. The only way to kill it was to consume all its Activated Knowledge.

The first step for Shawn was to change the arena Space. He had the Divine Favor of Lady Hecate, allowing him to be forcibly dragged into the Divine Kingdom of his teacher—the Maze Library.
