Chaos Warlord: Reincarnated in Eldrich with the Devil System!

Chapter 179 179: Arcane Points

?

Val decided to follow Oliver's words. Tendrils of soul power invisible to the naked eye creeped out of his palm and sunk into the token, powering it up.

The token released a vibrant aquamarine light that penetrated Val's forehead, almost like a stream of information being directly downloaded into his brain. 

In an instant, he understood everything about the token and its multifaceted uses.

The token served as his identity within the wizard community. It could be taken as a mark of his affiliation with the Destiny Walker Family.

But that was merely its primary purpose.

The token had numerous other functions, one of which was connecting wizards to the fabled Arcane Library.

The Arcane Library was an ethereal repository, home to an incomprehensible number of books and vast reservoirs of information. It was an unparalleled treasure trove of wisdom and knowledge that transcended time and space, accessible only to those within the wizard community who had the token. And these tokens could only be earned by joining a wizard family.

It was also revealed to Val that some of the books found in the Arcane Library were available free of cost, while others could only be unlocked in exchange for Arcane Points.

"I can't believe something like this existed under my nose all this time. This is like a miracle device!" Val exclaimed, the significance of the token dawning on him. With this, all the information he could ever need was literally at his fingertips, provided he had the means to pay for it.

There was a similar miracle in his previous life. It was called the Internet. The Arcane Library, however, was like the earliest version of the internet. It had its pros and cons and there were a lot of developments it could undergo.

But Val had no doubt that it would become as good as the internet or even better one day as long as the wizards continue to develop it. 

Seeing how amazed Val was, Oliver chuckled. His reaction was awfully similar to his own when he learned about the Arcane Library for the first time.

"The token in your hand is called the Arcane Medallion. I will skip the description since you've already been familiarized with its uses." Oliver said, then offered, "If you still have any questions about it, feel free to ask me."

"What are Arcane Points and how can I earn them?" Val asked.

"Ah, Arcane Points, I knew you'll ask about it." Oliver said, "They are a sort of currency for the wizard community. They are used to purchase premium information from the Arcane Library. You can earn them through various methods. One of the most common ones is sharing unique knowledge or information that does not exist in the database of the Arcane Library. For instance, your knowledge about Eldrich's g force might earn you quite a few points, should you choose to share it."

Val tilted his head, "Where do I need to go to share my findings?"

Oliver chuckled slightly, "Things work a little differently in the wizard community compared to the rest of the world. You don't need to go to an established place to publish your findings and have them verified. You can do it right through the Arcane Medallion. It can be used to transmit your knowledge directly to the Arcane Library. The library's spirit will verify it. If it confirms there's no duplicate and the knowledge is authentic, it will upload it to the Arcane Library's archives. Depending on the value of your information, you'll be rewarded with Arcane Points. You can even choose to make it premium at any time. For every sale, you'll receive 50% of the net profit."

"But how do I do that?" Val asked as he was slightly confused.

"With wizardry, you can," Oliver replied to him with a confident smile.

"You mean?" Val raised an eyebrow, his curiosity piqued.

"Soul power can not only be used as a weapon or a shield but also to transmit knowledge," Oliver explained. "If you're still wondering how to do it, go over the rules of wizardry, and you'll find the answer."

After a moment of thoughtfulness, a glimmer of understanding shone in Val's eyes.

"I can use my thoughts to make it happen, right?" Val asked.

"Yes," Oliver confirmed that the conclusion Val has reached was indeed correct.

"The light of wisdom that penetrated your head when you powered up the Arcane Medallion is also a product of wizardry. You can use it as an example to perform the trick yourself," Oliver gave Val an example of what he needed to do to make it happen after a few moments.

"Interesting," Val said. "So, I just need to think I want to share my knowledge while using wizardry and channel my soul power into the Arcane Medallion, and it will do the rest?"

"Correct," Oliver said. "Of course, you'll need to consciously decide what knowledge to share and what to hide. You wouldn't want to accidentally share all your personal secrets, would you?"

Val chuckled, "Certainly not. This is truly an advanced society. I have a lot to learn."

Oliver grinned, "Well, you're a part of it now. You have all the time in the world to know it better. And remember, I'm here to help you."

Val gave him a grateful look. "Thank you, Oliver. I appreciate it."

"Don't mention it," Oliver said. "Now that you're a part of the Destiny Walker Family, we look out for each other."

Delighted, Val didn't waste any time and immediately shared his findings regarding the 'g force' of Eldrich and the benefits it could have on the Anti-gravity technique with the Arcane Library through the Arcane Medallion.

The library's spirit didn't take long to verify the authenticity of the knowledge. Considering this was a matter that had bewildered many since ancient times, the spirit deemed the information extremely valuable and decided to award Val generously.

'A reward of several thousand points should suffice,' the ethereal spirit that was born to manage the library thought.
