Chapter 180 -141 Touching the Divine, Son of Stars (Seeking Monthly Tickets~) _1
[An ordinary Wandering Soul awakens in an ancient prison cell…]
[You have entered the ‘Cage of Impounding Stars’!]
[The cell is huge, nearly a hundred meters in length, width, and height, perfectly square. Besides the floor under your feet, the surroundings and the ceiling are all sparkling with the white light of Knowledge Grating.]
The Cage of Impounding Stars?
Lin Xun furrowed his brow, figuring out this mysterious place.
In the item slot was an eye that had just burst forth from the body of the ‘Astral Master – Xiamala’.
[The ‘Gigantic Eye of Stargazing’ (Rare+ Level), a magical eye from an unknown extraterrestrial creature, the monster of the stars, possesses the ability to stargaze without the need for astronomical glasses.]
Connecting these two concepts, Lin Xun immediately forms a series of plot assumptions.
Could it be that Xiamala, in order to gain further knowledge from the stars, had captured these star creatures through the Star Observatory Tower, and imprisoned them in this cage as a reservoir for potential eyes?
Despite being newly transferred here, Lin Xun felt naked and insecure as a Wandering Soul.
He hastily opened his shell inventory, intending to choose the body of the Earth Giant, but noticed the Astrologer shell he had obtained from the Star Tower.
An idea sparked in his mind.
[You possess the shell of a ‘knowledge-seeking tower astrologist’.]
[Bits of memory within the shell start reviving…]
[I am not the first assistant to Xiamala, I am the thirty-ninth.]
[As for my predecessors, they all died under the master of the Star Tower—Xiamala…]
[I understand why Xiamala chose me. I was just youthful and robust, just like my thirty-eight predecessors.]
[Neighbors warned me not to go into the Star Tower, for Xiamala is a blood-sucking man-eating flower, despite her stunning beauty…]
[I have confidence in my body, dealing with just Xiamala should be no challenge. You should know that I have dated eleven noble ladies at the same time and tamed all of them.]
[But what truly drove me into the Star Tower was… the amount Xiamala had given me was too much…]
[After entering the Star Tower, I understood why Xiamala did all this.]
[She was seeking knowledge, gazing at the stars without restraint, even capturing extraterrestrial creatures through the Star Tower.]
[As the master of the Star Tower, Xiamala’s strength was beyond reach for a commoner like me but still far behind the lofty presidents of the associations.]
[So, Xiamala was always careful while capturing the star monsters, not daring to touch the traces left by the ‘stars,’ or commit the taboo—an encounter with a real ‘star’.]
[Yet even so, she was on the brink of losing herself because most of the knowledge she gained from the star monsters was chaotic.]
[To maintain sanity and gain more orderly knowledge, Xiamala had only one way, by giving birth to offspring, discarding some chaotic knowledge.]
[But none of my predecessors could impregnate Xiamala. Ha… useless people! In the end, it’s up to me.]
[…]
[I was wrong. In just two months, my hair turned white with age, wrinkles formed, I couldn’t keep my back straight, and I had to lean against the wall to walk.]
[But I also gained a lot from Xiamala, such as stellar magic, the Stargazing Wand, and even the precious eyeballs of the star monsters, things I couldn’t dream of as a commoner.]
[But even after two months of effort, Xiamala showed no signs of pregnancy.]
[She never considered that perhaps the reason she couldn’t conceive wasn’t because of her assistants, but her own problem…]
[My complaints were heard by Xiamala, but she didn’t rage, as I had imagined.]
[She told me she was ready, about to give up discarding chaotic knowledge and immerse herself in the sea of knowledge.]
[I knew Xiamala was on the brink of losing herself. To satisfy her growing desire for knowledge, she had gone mad.]
[Xiamala said she found a real ‘star’ while capturing the star monsters, a star invisible to our world.]
[As her last assistant, she sincerely invited me to see that ‘star’ with her, so we could swim together in the sea of knowledge…]

[She was really mad!]
[I rejected unequivocally. Observing a real ‘star’ was the grandest taboo of this world.]
[If discovered by the School Association, both she and I would face a horrifying death… I didn’t want to die like this; I wanted to expose her to the association!]
[Xiamala seemed to see through my betrayal and ordered a maid puppet from the Puppet Factory to supervise me.]
[We had one last wild night, then she began her physical transformation in preparation for stargazing.]
[Xiamala shut herself in the basement with those star monsters…]
[The maid puppet watched me incessantly, preventing me from leaving the Star Tower. If it were two months ago, I might have been interested in tasting the puppet, but now…]
[When we met again, no! When I saw it next, it was already a month later.]
[Xiamala had transplanted the eyeballs of the star monsters onto herself, and to accommodate that giant eyeball, she had transformed herself into a monster…]
