The Midseashire at this time was completely different from before. Because of the existence of the Argel Family, it could be called the Western Capital.

Because the Western Defense Line and all the troops were controlled by the Argel Family, almost all the counties and cities in the west were subject to the Argel Family's command.

If this situation continues for too long, the Argel Family could easily split up the Loen clan.

However, at least for now, Kronos's father doesn't have that idea.

Being a king isn't so great; it's the nobles like him who truly enjoy freedom.

When they returned to their Their Manor, the Marquis Argel —no, he was already the Duke of Argel —was still out working; only his mother and Annie were at home.

As he approached, Kronos heard his mother and Annie arguing.

This piqued Kronos's curiosity, so he eavesdropped outside for a while before finding out why.

Previously, because the path ahead was not so clear, Kronos advised Annie not to become Beyonder for the time being and to postpone it a little longer.

Therefore, Annie has been reading the family's books for so long, yet she has not become Beyonder.

Right after this coup, when Duke Argel returned home and recounted the story to the two women, he spoke of Kronos's power.

Neither of them expected that their son (the older brother) would become Sequence One Archangel.

For Annie, her father is Demigod, her brother is Archangel, and even her mother is about to reach Sequence 7.

She was the only ordinary person in the whole family, so she naturally felt very uncomfortable.

Because the Duke of Argel was quite busy, Annie often consulted with her mother about her desire to become Beyonder.

However, the Duke has consistently refused.

She might have hesitated a little before, but now she is very decisive.

My son became Archangel in just a few years, so his words must be absolutely correct!

Since my son says we should postpone it a little, then let's postpone it.

Therefore, the communication between this mother and daughter has evolved from Annie's initial coquettishness to their current arguments.

After understanding all of this, Kronos slapped his forehead.

That's really his fault; he completely forgot about it.

The reason for the delay was that we hadn't decided which Pathway to let my Younger Sister choose.

In Kronos's view, the five Pathway to Omniscience were the most suitable. These Pathway were not targeted by the Outer Deity, and their abilities were all aboveboard, not supernatural or mysterious, making them suitable for girls.

However, there is one thing: Kronos has no connection with any of the True God who reach the end of these Pathway.

He feared that if his Younger Sister were to enter into these Pathway, it would become a weakness for him.

After all, Roselle's example serves as a stark warning: it's incredibly easy for a True God of one Pathway to control an Beyonder of the same Pathway.

But things are different now. He has become an ally of Adam and knows more about Adam.

Although Adam was skilled at scheming, he ultimately had the world on his mind, and his plans were all for the purpose of dealing with the Apocalypse.

Therefore, letting my Younger Sister choose the Visionary is not a bad result, after all, it is said that the Visionary is like the chosen one.

With that thought in mind, Kronos entered the room.

Hearing someone Door Opening, the mother and daughter looked towards the entrance. When they saw it was Kronos, they both showed expressions of joy.

Annie rushed towards Kronos without hesitation, and the Duke's face lit up with a smile.

"Brother, you're finally back! Dad and Mom just won't let me become Beyonder. Could you talk to them for me?" Little Annie said with a wronged look in Kronos's arms.

Kronos simply said with a helpless expression, "Annie, you've really blamed the wrong person. Actually, I was the one who asked you to postpone it a little."

Seeing the shock on Annie's face, Kronos quickly explained, "Becoming Beyonder is a very serious matter. Countless people regret it for the rest of their lives once they choose the wrong Pathway."

"I only care about what you want. I'll let you choose any Pathway you desire, which is why I hope you learn more about it so you can make a choice you won't regret."

Annie replied bluntly, "I've already researched all twenty-two Pathway, and I've made my decision. I like both the Sailor and the Spectator, and I definitely won't regret it later, but they still disagree."

Kronos hadn't expected his Younger Sister's thoughts to coincide with his own, but that was fine; he wouldn't have to waste time trying to persuade her.

Kronos said with a smile, "Since Little Annie likes the Spectator, then choose him. Today you can become Beyonder."

Seeing his mother's hesitant expression, Kronos continued, "Now that you've made your choice, go and prepare the materials yourself. I'll supervise you as you concoct the Potion."

Upon hearing Kronos's words, Annie shouted, "Brother is the best!" and then ran out of the room.

After Annie left, the Duke asked, "Are you sure everything is alright?"

There's a story in the Argel Family's history about how the God of Steam and Machinery attempted to brainwash Ancestor Ancestor Botu, ultimately leading to Botu death.

If the Argel Family never catches the eye of the True God, they naturally pose little threat.

However, since Kronos is already Sequence One, this kind of thing is hard to avoid.

Kronos replied, "Don't worry, Mother, I have a good relationship with that Visionary; there won't be any major problems."

The Duke paused for a moment, then suddenly realized that since her son had already reached this level, it seemed understandable that he would befriend one or two True God.

Later, under Kronos's tutelage, Annie concocted her first Potion and drank it all.

There's basically nothing to worry about with Sequence 9 Potion; they're all safe. So Annie easily became a "Spectator."

After Annie's success, Kronos went into his own Treasury.

With the family's wealth, their Treasury naturally has no shortage of mid- to low-end materials.

Thanks to Kronos's replenishment, it also contains a full range of high-level materials.

Of all the True God Churches, the Church of Steam and Machinery has the most rare materials.

They collect these not only to concoct Potion, but also to create Beyonder Item.

Had Kronos not erected Time Barrier around his Treasury, these materials would have been easily located by the Church of Steam and Machinery.

Kronos wandered around the Treasury and finally set his sights on a piece of wood.

This is a tree that grows in the Spirit World, making it an extremely rare material.

Kronos needs a material capable of bearing the power of Sequence One or even the True God, and this is indeed a good choice.

After taking the piece of wood back to his room, Kronos got busy.

Kronos had already decided what he wanted to create.

He plans to use this wood to carve a "Figurines," the original form of which is the image of Sequence 0.

By stimulating different Sequence of power, the abilities and appearances of different Sequence can be displayed.

Kronos chose the Pathway he knew best: the Hermit Pathway.

Take a cylindrical piece of material about 20 centimeters long and 7 or 8 centimeters in diameter from the wood.

Then Kronos began to meticulously carve.

Kronos had never practiced these techniques, but given his strength, his control over his power was unparalleled.

Even if they can't create works of art that will be remembered for generations, they still have the ability to make top-notch handicrafts.

After several tens of minutes, a Hermit hidden in Cloak had been carved out.

In fact, these Pathway don't have any specific imagery. The reason they are made this way is entirely based on the images on Ta Lo and the images of Roselle's Blasphemy Card.

After completing the first one, Kronos did not rush to sculpt the second figure, but instead wanted to conduct in-depth experiments.

Even if this idea is impractical or has some flaws, it won't waste too many materials.

After putting down his carving knife, Kronos began to unleash the power of the Knowledge Emperor, drawing upon all the knowledge he possessed about the Hermit Pathway.

Instead of starting with the Mystery Pryer and progressing to the higher levels, Kronos chose the Hermit, whom he knew the least about.

Not for any other reason than to enable him to contain the full power of the entire Pathway, the foundation of which must be the Hermit's knowledge.

As the Hermit's knowledge was inputted, this knowledge seemed to resonate with the image on the Figurines, making the entire Figurines feel more and more vivid.

After the knowledge belonging to the Hermit was transferred, Kronos used the power of Dominion to solidify this knowledge into this Figurines.

As soon as the solidification process ended, the Figurines and landed on the ground in front of Kronos, then transformed into a Hermit figure that looked just like a real person.

If this happens, it's already a success.

Looking at the Hermit before him, Kronos was still quite happy.

On the one hand, it was because his first attempt had succeeded, and on the other hand, it was because he felt that the Potion in his body was being digested in large quantities again.

The last time he achieved this speed was when he was Consciousness absorbing the knowledge from the Blasphemy Slate.

Based on this situation, once Kronos has successfully completed all twenty-two Figurines, he will definitely be able to consume the Potion belonging to the Knowledge Emperor.

As for the more dangerous Pathway, such as: Mother, Demoness, Abyss.

Kronos was still intended to be created, after all, it's better to see things through to the end.

However, if you use the power of time to defend yourself properly, and then try not to use it after you've created it, there shouldn't be any problems.

After carefully observing the Hermit's figure before him with his Eyes of Mystery Prying, Kronos realized that it was ultimately just an empty shell.

After all, the Hermit is True God; how could Kronos's power possibly create a True God?

With his current abilities, he can at most create Archangel of Sequence One, and even that would be difficult to achieve. Otherwise, why would the power in the Blasphemy Card remain at Sequence Two?

However, Kronos didn't care about all that; his goal was to continue down this Pathway without ever changing Pathway.

Therefore, he has the time and opportunity to continuously improve his Figurines.

Who knows, maybe we'll eventually be able to create Figurines of the Great Old One quality?

Once he had gathered his thoughts, Kronos began to refine his Figurines.

The first step is to transmit knowledge belonging to those Mystery Pryer.

As Kronos had predicted, with the Hermit as the foundation of everything, this power of the same Pathway was quickly incorporated and became part of the Hermit.

As the knowledge of Melee Scholar, Warlock, Scroll Professor, and Astronomer is incorporated into the Figurines, the image of the Hermit becomes increasingly solid.

Next comes knowledge of beings at the Demigod and above.

Demigod possesses transformative power, and naturally, his knowledge also possesses even greater power.

Kronos is certainly capable of controlling himself, but the concern is that he Figurines.

Therefore, Kronos focused his attention to the extreme, slowly transmitting the knowledge of the Mysticologist into his body.

Surprisingly, the process went very smoothly, and the Figurines didn't have any problems at all.

Seeing this, Kronos was relieved, and the next to Clairvoyant and the Sage.

Kronos had personally experienced each of the previous Sequence and therefore knew them very well.

But things are different in these two Sequence. All of Kronos's knowledge comes from the Blasphemy Card, the Blasphemy Slate, and even the original texts.

With utmost care and precision, Kronos carefully and slowly transferred the knowledge he knew of the Clairvoyant into the Figurines.

Whether it was normal or because Kronos's understanding was slightly different, the Hermit's image did indeed waver slightly.

But it only lasted for a moment; everything returned to normal afterward.

The Hermit figure fully embraced this knowledge and amplified its power.

Since there are no problems, we can continue. Next comes the power of the Sage.

After the power of the Sage was also transferred in, this Hermit Figurines could be equated with the Blasphemy Card cards of Emperor Roselle.

Perhaps future generations will give them a special name.

Is Figurines? That name sounds more like something a pervert is doing.

This was no longer important to Kronos at this point; he could simply give them nice names himself once everything was done.

Although he had already achieved this, Kronos was not satisfied.

He wanted to try something higher, and also to understand why Roselle's Blasphemy Card only reached Sequence Two.

With that in mind, Kronos didn't hold back and gathered all the knowledge he had about the Knowledge Emperor, then began to transmit it.
