Those seven balls of fire were shockingly what he had been looking for all along!
He hadn’t expected Kate to truly find them all.
But then, he thought of something bad.
‘Hold on…’
‘The importance of the Source of Fire’s Order to Feinan is no less than that of removing the Decaying Plateau…’
‘Last time, I was broadcasted throughout Feinan when I was using the Golden Scissors…’
‘Then Kate…’
Marvin didn’t dare to think about it further!
With this event, Rocky Mountain was going to go through a lot of changes!

As expected, news quickly spread in all directions.
The first to arrive were officials from some cities of the Pampo Seashore, as well as adventurers and some powerhouses.
Then it was the Saint Desert, followed by the Three Ring Towers, Steel City, and other unfamiliar faces from the central regions. They all started going toward Rocky Mountain.
This was a rare event.
Rocky Mountain had always been viewed as a barren land, a place no one was willing to go to.
But this time, because of the Sources of Fire’s Order, many people came here.
Most of them didn’t know what a Source of Fire’s Order meant, but there were inevitably some sages in the powers supporting them that did.
A Source of Fire’s Order was the last hope in times of disaster.
Just as Marvin expected, the scene of Kate getting the seven of them had been broadcast throughout Feinan, enticing all these people.
The only thing that made him feel better was that the day after the occurence, more meteors streaked toward the north.
A total of nine meteors streaked dazzlingly across the northern wasteland just like those seven before.
Seeing them, the people seemed to realize something.
These nine meteors all fell in the most dangerous area in the North, the Black Devil Forest!
Unlike Rocky Mountain, the Black Devil Forest was a central area in the North, separating the North in two.
Because of the attraction of those nine meteors, quite a few of those who originally intended to go to Rocky Mountain were lured over there instead.
…
Two days later, in Hope City, the undercurrents were stirring.
The work to rebuild their home was still in progress, but many foreign shadows began to appear in Hope City.
This made the inhabitants very uneasy.
Even though the Black Dragon’s corpse had already been put in Marvin’s Thousand Paper Crane, the traces of the fight and the bloodstains were still there.
The broadcast of Rocky Mountain had attracted the attention of all the people of the South.
Fortunately, the Three Sisters’ forces were powerful. There were the Sorcerers of the Demon’s Hand working together in teams, and Jessica, who was Legend that had reached the 6th layer of Fate Power.
As for Kate who had just returned, she was a new Legend.
A territory having two Legends living there was considered somewhat rare.
Meanwhile, Marvin’s condition was getting better under the treatment of the best healers.
Most of Rocky Mountain’s Sorcerers were experts at destruction, not healing. He was barely able to walk now.
Even so, he needed to handle what would come next.
…
“The seven Sources of Fire’s Order will keep resonating with each other.”
Marvin looked at those seven small lights in Kate’s hand and said in a heavy voice, “If you keep them together, they will keep producing great fluctuations that can be discerned by people with good perception.”
“We have to keep them apart, and Rocky Mountain can only safely keep three.”
Kate slightly nodded. She knew the importance of the Sources of Fire’s Order, but in theory, only one of them was enough. Having too many would invite trouble instead. Marvin suggesting them to keep three was mostly to guard against the unexpected.
“Of the remaining four, I also need three.” He calmly raised his request.
The three sisters had no issues with this.
If not for Marvin bravely stepping forward, Hope City might have already been destroyed by the Black Dragon.
And they had an agreement that he was entitled to the Sources of Fire’s Order.
“What about that remaining one?” Jessica asked.
“Let it go.” Marvin’s answer was far beyond her expectations.
Kate had painstakingly gotten it from the dangerous ancient temple, and they had to let it go?
Kate was also a bit perplexed.
But at that time, Lorie slowly agreed, “Right. Let it go. This is the best way.”
Kate and Jessica looked at each other. They naturally understood their little sister the best.
Lorie’s Fate Power was Wisdom, letting her see beyond what an ordinary person could.
Since she also said to let it go, then there must be a good reason.
Thus, after a slight hesitation, Kate loosened her left hand.
“Woosh!”
That Source of Fire’s Order suddenly flew up and out the window, turning into a bright meteor as it rushed toward an unknown location.
Those powerhouses who had come because of the news saw the meteor flying overhead and immediately changed their routes, relentlessly chasing after it!
This released Source of Fire’s Order would make a lot of people fight for it!
…
Secret chamber.
Kate waved her wrist and two boxes appeared. Each box was adorned with a simple decoration.
These were the boxes she found from the ancient temple.
They were most suitable to host the Sources of Fire’s Order.
She divided the remaining six Sources in two and handed one box to Marvin.
At the same time, she also handed Marvin a cold tablet.
“Please.”
She solemnly looked at Marvin as she said that.
Marvin nodded somberly.
…
At night, a plain carriage quickly left Hope City.
The coachman was one of the most trusted subordinates of the three sisters. And besides Marvin, there was an old acquaintance in the carriage.
Demon’s Hand Leader, Sorceress Daisy.
She previously fought alongside Marvin against the Black Dragon Clarke.
The current Marvin was extremely weak and truly needed the protection of the powerful Sorceress.
And Jessica and Kate were unable to leave.
They had to defend Rocky Mountain.
This was their home, and getting the Source of Fire’s Order in the first place was in order to develop their homeland.
The carriage left Hope City and tread across Rocky Mountain’s uneven land before arriving at the edge of the Saint Desert.
From there it headed south, leaving for the boundless wilderness.
There were no roads in the wilderness. It was filled with fog, and the coachman often had to stop to adjust their path.
Daisy also had a crystal ball that could point toward their destination.
The whole journey was shaky and bumpy, but Marvin firmly held that ice cold tablet in his arms.
He already had the Sources of Fire’s Order, and just had to fulfill another promise.
That was to save Ding!
But the peculiarity of the Fate Tablet made Marvin uncertain who he should go to for help.
The Great Elven King?
Nicholas was said to be heavily injured, while Ivan was wandering in the Dead Area west of the Pampo Seashore. Going to Thousand Leaves Forest might be useless.
Other Legends shouldn’t be able to deal with this.
This was a matter touching upon knowledge of the core of the Universe.
&n
bsp; If there were any people able to give Marvin some guidance, it could only be them.
Wind Castle, Pearl Tower, Silver Scholars.
…
They rode in the carriage for no less than three days and three nights before finally seeing a huge construct amidst the sea of sand.
A massive tower soared toward the sky from the middle of that construct.
This was the Pearl Tower.
The Pearl Tower gathering all of Feinan’s knowledge!
It’s rumored that this place had traces of God Lance’s power, with his Divine Power’s blessing.
Thus, this place was the Scholars’ paradise, their permanent sanctuary.
But not everyone could enter Wind Castle.
To enter, one needed to have the Great Scholar title.
But Marvin knew there was another way.
“Let’s go!”
He muttered under his breath, “I hope the wise Silver Scholars won’t disappoint me.”

Chapter 289: Unsolved Mystery

Sand was blown around unceasingly by the wind outside the castle walls.
A huge arched gate appeared ahead of the carriage.
The gate was closed, and only when a scholar, a great sage, paid a visit would the Wind Castle open its door.
Beside the main entrance, there was a smaller gate which was also tightly locked.
There were two banana trees outside and under the shadow of a banana tree, a youth was sitting on a rattan chair, reading a scroll with deep interest.
It looked like the sand blowing a few steps away had nothing to do with him.
Indeed, the banana trees were inside the barrier surrounding the whole Wind Castle.
The sand outside wouldn’t be blown in.
This was the Wind Castle’s natural defense mechanism. Without being allowed in, nothing could get inside this holy city.
This was a city of scholars, where no one could enter besides those who were willing to become scholars, those who became apprentices as children, and true Great Scholars.
The carriage slowly came to a stop outside the boundary.
The youth slightly raised his head, and then was somewhat stunned.
His scroll trembled in his hand as he noticed the youth getting down from the carriage.
He knew that person.
‘Plane Destroyer, Marvin.’
A hint of worship could be seen in the youth’s expression. ‘I didn’t expect to meet such a guest on duty today!’
Marvin quickly walked over and stopped before the boundary, greeting the youth.
The latter put away his scroll and politely walked over.
They were separated by the mysterious unbreakable boundary.
“Hello Sir Marvin, I am Shura.
The youth smiled bashfully. “Do you have something to do in the Wind Castle? But the rules here are quite inflexible. Even if you are a noble Hero of Feinan, an existence who destroyed the Decaying Plateau, you still can’t enter if you don’t have a Great Scholar title.”
Marvin nodded.
He was surprised that the other party recognized him.
The Wind Castle would send numerous apprentices all over the world every year to gather all kinds of information.
The news of him destroying the Decaying Plateau was so big that these scholars would definitely quickly gather information about him.
This was the reason he decided to use his true identity.
After all, Marvin the Plane Destroyer, who had destroyed the Decaying Plateau on that famous tree, was definitely quite notable.
…
“I know that besides the inhabitants of the City of Knowledge, only the Great Scholars could enter the city.”
“But I also heard that a few years ago, the Pearl Tower’s twelve top Great Scholars reconsidered the rules of entry to the city. They put forward three questions, and one could enter if they answered a question, isn’t that so?” Marvin said confidently.
The youth froze.
“Those three unsolved mysteries?”
“You said you want to solve the three unsolved mysteries?”
Shura’s voice suddenly became sharp!
The next second, countless shadows appeared from the top of the Wind Castle.
“Shura? What happened?”
“Someone wants to solve the unsolved mysteries?”
“Who?”
“Heavens, I greet Sir Plane Destroyer!”
…
In an instant, that place at the top of the Wind Castle became very lively.
Even Marvin himself hadn’t expected that his arrival would create such a commotion!
This was the effect of World Fame!
Destroying the Decaying Plateau made Marvin and the White River Valley’s people a focus point of the entire world.
It was especially true for the well-informed City of Knowledge. Marvin’s deed was something every scholar knew.
This kind of major event was unconditionally big enough to be recorded in the Pearl Tower.
It was just unknown which level it would be stored in.
The people kept discussing on the city wall, and even if Shura was just as excited, as the one in charge he held his scroll high and angrily shouted, “Silence!”
“Notify the top seats of the Pearl Tower!”
“Sir Marvin wants to solve the three unsolved mysteries!”
…
A few minutes later, the arched gate of the City of Knowledge opened with a bang.
Twelve Great Scholars wearing crimson gowns came out together.
Everyone on the city wall sighed in amazement.
Such a scene, how many years had it been since it had last happened?
The twelve top seats of the Pearl Tower together, wasn’t this a rare honor?
Even if those Great Scholars famous throughout the continent came to pay a visit, surely they wouldn’t receive this kind of treatment!?
Not to mention, he said he wanted to solve the unsolved mysteries.
If not for Marvin being extremely famous, these Great Scholars wouldn’t believe his words.
Among the Great Scholars, some were young, and some were old. Obtaining this title wasn’t specifically related to age, but rather depended on the depth of one’s knowledge.
A middle-aged man wearing golden glasses took a step forward and solemnly addressed Marvin on behalf of the other Great Scholars:
“Respected Plane Destroyer, welcome to the Wind Castle.”
“You truly aren’t a Great Scholar, thus you originally wouldn’t have the qualifications to enter the city.”
“But you offered to solve a problem that has been bothering us for many years. If you truly accomplish it, you’ll be free to come in and out of the Wind Castle as you wish.”
“Could I ask, which question do you want to solve?”
Marvin calmly answered, “The matter of whether or not the multiverse is unique.”
The man nodded and then consulted with the other Great Scholars for a moment before ultimately waving his hand.
The next instant, that pale yellow barrier disappeared without a trace and Marvin took a step toward the holy City of Knowledge.
“Welcome to Wind Castle.”
“Now, let us go to Pearl Tower. It’s good that you happened to come today, as your previous deed of destroying the Decaying Plateau will definitely be written down in the History Calendar.”
“We need to hold a ceremony, and it is our honor to have you here as the person involved.”
…
The Wind Castle, known as the City of Knowledge. The Pearl Tower was the most famous part of it.
And the History Calendar in the Pearl Tower was used to record the most important events in Feinan’s history.
Since Marvin transmigrated, roughly four events were eligible to be recorded in it: The fall of the Great Legend Wizard Anthony,
Marvin destroying the Decaying Plateau, a team of Legends crazily eradicating the Twin Snakes Cult, and the recent descent of the Source of Fire’s Order in Feinan.
As for an event like the powerhouse Robin tearing a Black Dragon apart, it wasn’t important enough to be recorded in the History Calendar.
Usually, those who could be recorded in the History Calendar were the greatest Heroes!
It meant leaving a mark in history.
On the way, the Great Scholar wearing golden glasses, Damian, chatted with Marvin for a bit.
“The recording ceremony will be carried out tomorrow, and your answer will also be requested after the ceremony.”
“I hope you can give a perfect answer, or else the Pearl Tower will no longer be open to you.”
Marvin nodded gently.
A scholar on the side couldn’t help but ask, “Excuse me, could you explain the question about whether the multiverse is unique?”
Marvin calmly answered, “The multiverse isn’t unique.”
Everyone was in uproar!
A Great Scholar suddenly asked in the street, “What is your argument?”
A smile appeared in the corner of Marvin’s mouth.
“You’ll understand tomorrow.”

The next morning, below the Pearl Tower.
A great amount of scholars gathered.
They were learning scholars from the City of Knowledge and were here today not only because it was the day of the recording ceremony, but most importantly because of a very important piece of news:
The famed Plane Destroyer Marvin personally came to the Pearl Tower to watch the great recording ceremony. And after the ceremony, he would solve one of the three great unsolved mysteries!
The peaceful City of Knowledge hadn’t had such a lively event in a long time.
It was true that the learning scholars are refined learners of history and science, but they were also extremely curious men.
They wanted to see what theory this rumored mysterious Baron Marvin would come up with.
Everyone was in a circle at the bottom of the pure white Pearl Tower.
The twelve top seated Great Scholars were sitting in a circle around a round table.
Marvin’s position suited his status, as he was sitting in a rattan chair for the honored guest, calmly awaiting the outcome.
