Lord: Sequence Master

Rosen studied the fragments of the Tablet of Destiny in his hand, feeling he could extract more through the Ancient Scholar's professional authority.

Without hesitation, he infused divinity into the fragments, consuming a staggering 100 million high-quality spiritual crystals. His Gluttonous Stomach struggled to digest the overwhelming influx, but the Ancient Scholar's power finally activated, extracting a ball of light from the fragments.

Rosen stretched out his hand, allowing his spirit to absorb the information within.

It turns out this was a Historical Imprint, a treasure that could only be acquired with an extremely low probability—around one in a thousand—when analyzing lost historical records.

The cost of even attempting to analyze a Historical Imprint was monumental, requiring 100 million high-quality spiritual crystals each time. Failure meant complete loss, and luck played an undeniable role.

This tiny fragment in his hand was unimaginably precious.

Historical Traces and Historical Imprints might seem similar, but their essence was vastly different.

Historical Traces recorded the birth, rise, and fall of a civilization, clinging to its ashes.Historical Imprints, on the other hand, captured fragments of treasures or individuals who transcended civilizations.

The Historical Imprint Rosen held contained a treasure from a lost history.

He crushed the light in his palm, and a thumb-sized ball of dust appeared—Calamity Ash.

Calamity Ash was an extraordinary material born only from civilizations that had survived ten thousand years of catastrophic trials and surpassed the level of a true god.

The Tablet of Destiny itself was primarily composed of this ash.

However, a fragment like this alone could not recreate such an artifact, nor could Rosen fully understand its potential.

But he knew one thing—this ash held immense value.

Determined, Rosen planned to scour the Main God Network and the Spiritual World's Deep Web for any related clues.

Both the World Government and ancient alien civilizations would surely possess some Calamity Ash.

He carefully stored the Tablet fragments and the Calamity Ash, heading toward the Mysterious Study.

As soon as he entered, the Main God's computer network cables wrapped around him, siphoning information into the Tablet fragments.

Streams of multicolored light surged into the fragments, and the desktop of the Main God's computer flashed with lines of information.

The computer had fully extracted the knowledge sealed within—something the Favalli archaeologist had only managed to unearth partially.

Rosen couldn't comprehend most of the data, but one thing became clear:

The ritual formation described within wasn't originally created by the God of the Dead but was instead discovered in ancient ruins.

The Favalli archaeologist had spent his life researching it, discovering that it could enhance spirituality when combined with a Soul Gem.

Now, Rosen would need to conduct his own research to uncover its true purpose.

As the extraction completed, the Calamity Ash in his hand was absorbed into the Main God's computer, forcing it to shut down and restart for the first time in years.

When the computer rebooted, Rosen realized something monumental:

The Main God Network was now fully under the control of the Main God Computer.

Previously, the network operated autonomously, its functions fractured and uncontrollable. But the Calamity Ash had repaired critical systems, restoring dominance over the network.

Calamity Ash wasn't just about destruction—it carried an unfathomable power to repair and create.

Excited, Rosen logged into the Main God Network.

His access had been upgraded—he was no longer just a user but a network operator, holding supreme authority over the entire Main God Network.

He could now view:

Profiles of lucky individuals across alien civilizations.Their transaction records in the Main God's Temple.Their traces and footprints across the network.

Even more astonishingly, the Main God's computer could now penetrate the Spiritual World's Deep Web with unrivaled efficiency.

Before, Rosen could only hack surface-level data. Now, even encrypted files yielded to his control.

Only top-level encrypted intelligence from the World Government's Headquarters could resist his intrusion.

99% of the Spiritual World's Deep Web was now an open book to him.

After Rosen returned to the Sky Garden, he immersed himself in the main god network and the deep web of the spiritual world for many days.

It was not until the Intelligence Bureau of the Divine Wood Empire came knocking on his door that he reluctantly left the mysterious study.

Without the fragments of the Tablet of Destiny to cover it up, the situation in Parthia could no longer be hidden from the World Government.

Recently, the Intelligence Bureau of the Divine Wood Empire had been under tremendous pressure from above. They finally captured the escaped wizard of the Favalli family. Through the transmission records of the wizard tower, they discovered who had been there before the Favalli family was exterminated.

At the Sky Garden Intelligence Bureau branch, Rosen had just been sitting in the reception room for a while when three judges pushed the door open and entered.

This was his second contact with the judges, but this time the three judges were very rude.

It's not difficult to understand, he thought. The Favalli family enslaved an entire city for so many years, and the Intelligence Bureau of the Divine Wood Empire didn't notice any abnormalities. My actions destroyed the Favalli family, which made them lose face.

"You destroyed the Favalli family?"

The leading judge asked sternly.

"Certainly."

Rosen said as he took out a star emblem, which belonged to the Duke of Favalli.

"You killed Stig Favalli too?"

The judge asked again.

"I don't know about that."

Rosen shook his head.

"There is evidence that Stig's death is related to you..."

The judge stared into Rosen's eyes, his eyes glowing black as he spoke sternly.

Rosen stared at the judge without showing any weakness. His magic pen moved swiftly on the ash curtain. Under the accelerated time painting, he quickly drew a portrait of the judge opposite him. Finally, he drew two nails in the painting and inserted the nails into the eyes of the portrait without hesitation.

The judge, who had been trying to read Rosen's thoughts, screamed and covered his eyes.

"If you have evidence, come back to me. If you don't have evidence, remember to give me the reward."

Rosen said as he put down Duke Favalli's star emblem and stood up to leave.

The two judges looked grim and wanted to stand up to stop him, but were halted by the blinded judge.

Destroying the Favalli family is an undeniable merit, Rosen thought. The only trouble was probably killing Stig in Divine Wood City.

Even if Stig was guilty, killing him in Divine Wood City was against the law. But this required evidence, and without evidence, they couldn't do anything to a hereditary duke.

In fact, even if there was evidence, at most it would only discredit Rosen's achievements.

Therefore, even though the judge had been blinded, he didn't dare to stop Rosen. After all, it was he who had relied on his Sequence 4 strength to invade Rosen's mind first. If he was blinded by the counterattack, he had no valid justification to continue pursuing the matter.

After Rosen left the Intelligence Agency, he did not feel relieved.

This time, I've made an enemy of the Intelligence Bureau of the Divine Wood Empire, he thought. If they find an opportunity, they won't hesitate to retaliate against me.

However, Rosen could kill Duke Favalli, and a Sequence 5 defeating a Sequence 3 was no ordinary feat.

Under normal circumstances, even the Imperial Intelligence Agency shouldn't show hostility towards me. If not for my current strength, shouldn't they at least consider my future potential?

Rosen's intuition told him that something was wrong.

After returning to the Wood Elves' Palace in the Sky Garden, he immediately took out the painting of the Undead Business Hall and began to further explore Stig's memory.

It would take a long time to read through hundreds of years of memory, even if it was just a cursory review.

Fortunately, specific terms could be searched. Rosen directly searched for memories related to the Intelligence Bureau.

Half an hour later, Rosen understood what was going on.

The situation in Parthia hasn't just started recently—it's been ongoing for over two thousand years.

Ever since the current Duke of Favalli inherited the title, Parthia City had enslaved the humans in the city for two thousand years under the cover of the fragments of the Tablet of Destiny.

During such a long period of time, the Intelligence Bureau did not fail to notice abnormalities.

They knew, Rosen realized. Hundreds of years ago, they already knew.

The Intelligence Bureau of the Divine Wood Empire had chosen to turn a blind eye after weighing the pros and cons.

If the matter was reported to the World Government, every intelligence officer involved would be punished. But if they chose to cooperate with the Favalli family, not only would they avoid punishment, they'd also profit.

In fact, 60% of the Favalli family's profits ended up in the hands of the Director of the Intelligence Agency.

Now I've destroyed their enormous source of wealth, and they probably suspect I know about their collusion with the Favalli family.

Rosen realized that the judge had been testing him earlier—testing whether he knew about the dealings between the Favalli family and the Intelligence Bureau.

If they discover I know the truth, they'll send an assassin after me.

"I don't have the habit of keeping enemies alive. A thief can steal for a thousand days, but you can't guard against thieves for a thousand days."

Rosen logged into the deep web of the spiritual world through the main god's computer and began to investigate the Director of the Intelligence Bureau.

Niccolo Aisan, a Sequence 3 Psychologist from the Scientist Branch.

Psychologists, like jurists, were part of a supernatural sequence monopolized by the World Government.

All Psychologists had to join the Intelligence Bureau. Otherwise, they would be relentlessly hunted by the World Government.

Niccolo's status far exceeded that of an ordinary Sequence 3, and he was also a hereditary duke.

Killing him wouldn't just attract suspicion—it would trigger an investigation by the World Government.

Rosen discovered that Niccolo had the backing of a Sequence 1 Deputy Director of the General Administration.

This is getting trickier, he thought.

After much consideration, Rosen finally decided:

If I'm going to use a borrowed knife, it can't be from humans—it must be from aliens.

He filtered through the main god network and found a suitable target:

The Sequence 2 Abyss Cursed Demon, a servant of the Abyss Lord of the 60th floor of the Abyss.

Over the years, this demon had relied on intelligence from human traitors to curse and kill Sequence 3 humans.

With a simple manipulation of information, Niccolo Aisan would become the Abyss Cursed Demon's next target.

If he doesn't die, he will be crippled. Why would he bother to trouble him?

Being able to be a human traitor and provide detailed information about human Sequence 3s to facilitate the Abyss Curse to kill him, to put it bluntly, ordinary people are not qualified to be human traitors. Those who are qualified to be human traitors must at least be people with great luck.

This is because only those with great luck can trade materials through the main god's temple and exchange information through the main god's network.

It's not for nothing that people become traitors. Only fools would do that if there is no benefit.

What Rosen has to do now is to use the supreme control of the Lord God's network to pretend to be a human traitor and send information to the Abyss Curse Demon. Even if the two sides cannot match the information in the end, they will definitely suspect each other first.

…

The 60th floor of the Abyss, the cursed crypt of the Abyss Curse Demon.

The Abyss Curse Demon logged into the Lord God Network and immediately saw new news from his partners.

He was good at cursing and had mastered a special luck curse.

As long as the luck of the target of the curse was strong enough, he could reap part of the luck after the curse was successful.

Only by accumulating enough luck could he take the next step and become Sequence 1.

That's why he spared no expense to bribe a man of great luck in the human race, so that both sides could cooperate and achieve a win-win situation.

"Nicolo Aisan, a Sequence 3 psychologist..."

The Abyss Curse Demon looked at the detailed information sent by the partner with some hesitation.

Psychologists were the elites of the human World Government's intelligence bureau, and basically, they were the directors of the intelligence bureaus of various empires. Cursing such beings was likely to attract a counterattack from Sequence 1 of the intelligence bureau. At that time, the cost of requesting protection from the Abyss Lord would be high.

However, after seeing the last part of the information, the Abyss Curse Demon weighed the pros and cons and decided to take action.

This Nicolo was extremely lucky, and the information his partners had found was too detailed.

So it was very likely that this Nicolo had a grudge against his partner.

In view of the pleasant cooperation over the years, he didn't mind helping his partner solve some troubles.

Anyway, as long as the cooperation continued, his partners would definitely compensate him.

The Abyss Curse Demon quickly ordered his Abyss Demons to go to the vicinity of the Abyss Blood River to capture those Sequence 6 Abyss Demons that had just matured, and then set up a curse ritual with the corpses of tens of thousands of Abyss Demons. It took three days to begin the final curse.

At the same time, in the Shenmu City Intelligence Bureau, Nicolo, who was studying psychology, suddenly felt a palpitation.

This was the warning brought by the skill of psychological warning. Someone was cursing him to death.

Nicolo immediately used all the means to resist the curse at all costs, but after a moment he was still unable to prevent his spiritual collapse. This was at least a Sequence 2 Abyss Cursed Demon. When had he provoked such a terrifying existence without any grudges?

Nicolo didn't want to die, so he immediately asked for help from his backers through the deep web of the spiritual world.

However, instead of waiting for rescue, he was told to "get out".

Niccolò instinctively reflected on himself, wondering if he had done something wrong to offend that lord, otherwise why would he watch him die and tell him to get lost? But no matter how he thought about it, he was not wrong, and what happened in the City of Rest was not enough to make that lord abandon him.

His spirituality continued to collapse, and as time went on, Nicolo realized that he really had no way out.

Without hesitation, he sent all the negative information he knew about his backer to his backer's competitors through the deep web of the spiritual world. He had done so much for that old ghost over the years, and if he abandoned him at this time, then don't blame him for going crazy before he died.

In front of the Lord's computer, Rosen intercepted all the information sent by Nicolo.

The word "get lost" was included in his reply.

The original intention was just to let Nicolo feel the despair before death, but Rosen didn't expect Nicolo to have so much dirty information about that deputy director. It turned out that the good side of the World Government was for ordinary people to see, and the power class had been corrupted for 20,000 years.

All the troubles were solved, and Rosen began to prepare the mysterious ritual formation.

He certainly couldn't have arranged it himself, but the territory had trained several Sequence 7 wizards over the years, and Alicia and Amy were both proficient in magic, so after a few days of hard work, he finally prepared the ritual formation.

Rosen held a Sequence 6 soul gem in his hand, walked into the ritual formation, and infused it with spirituality to activate the formation.

A pale light rose within the ritual formation, quickly enveloping Rosen and the Soul Gem. The Soul Gem dissolved bit by bit in the light, eventually extracting a pale special spirituality that was integrated into his Sequence Ancient Tree.

Rosen had predicted the celestial phenomena in advance and confirmed that this ritual formation was harmless and had hidden benefits.

So he actively absorbed the pale spirituality to strengthen his own Sequence Ancient Tree, and soon the spiritual strength had been strengthened to 58 points. If he added the 9 points of long-term enhancement from the ancient god's sacrificial vessel, his spiritual strength was no less than that of a demigod who had just been promoted to Sequence 3.
