Forgotten Lands - Prologue (Book 2)
🕑 Added 2024-03-11 11:00:05 +0000 UTCAfter the raid of the Hidden Library in the Tower of Nature, Zayn didn’t enter the Tower of Nature again. There was no need for him to waste his time. He obtained what he had been looking for.
The books treasured by the Grandmagus of the Tower of Nature ended up in Zayn’s hands. All he had to do was to use the knowledge of the Grandmagus to stop the end of the world.
Several weeks passed in the blink of an eye.
Zayn played Forgotten Lands to record some videos and to hunt Monsters to procure several useful Cards and Soul Essences, but that was already it. Most of his time was spent on the Grandmagus’ treasured books.
The knowledge gained through the treasured books and tomes was vast. Zayn learned about the Floating Island of Xivear and a lot about the forsaken races of the Pantheon, the Abandoned, and the Outsiders, Gods that had been expelled from the Primordial Pantheon.
Zayn was very interested in the Abandoned and the Outsiders. It would be great to have godly allies in the fight against the Primordial Pantheon. Unfortunately, the information on the Outsiders and the Abandoned were scarce.
The same could be said about Worldbridges and Dimensional Anchors. Zayn read a little bit about Worldbridges, but the information wasn’t news to him.
Zayn wasn’t hoping for anything grand but expected to find something about Dimensional Anchors and Worldbridges in the Grandmagus’ library. But there was nothing like that. He only saw books about ‘Soul Alteration’, ‘Regional Bosses and their Refined Soul’, and ‘Soul-related Class Paths’.
Even though these books didn’t magically solve his problems, they contained knowledge about things Zayn had never heard before. He secretly hoped to deduce a secret method to use the intel to destroy Worldbridges and Dimensional Anchors, but his hopes weren’t high.
Fortunately, his research, which lasted much longer than Zayn had anticipated, ended with a nice find.

Zayn jumped up from the chair, his frustration wiped away instantly.
“Requirements and Powers of the Hidden Class Path–....”
Percy and Nicolas barged into his room. They circled the Olympus Pod and the mess of hundreds of pieces of paper and arrived before their little brother.
“Zayn!!!!”
Percy grasped his little brother’s shoulders and shook him firmly.
“WHAT?!” Zayn shouted back, trying to escape his brother’s grasp without hurting him.
“When are we going to release more interesting videos? Your stuff is not boring, but we need more! Some real action! Something that will draw more viewers to the channel!”
Nicolas nodded right before showing him various forum threads on the phone.
[Zenot claimed to be the strongest Player in Forgotten Lands after procuring the first Epic Card of the game!]
[Zenot breaks the world record of the Behemoth Tundra’s fastest solo clear]
[Zenot reveals the secret of his power. Uncommon Card Set confirmed!]
[The first small-scale town has been discovered.]
[The Top 500 company Waterworld Wonder joins Forgotten Lands. They’ve claimed the Tower of Nature in less than 24 hours after joining the competition!]
“Nobody cares about us anymore. We have to do something, otherwise, you will lose your biggest source of income soon.” Nicolas said, “We need to do something big if you want to stay at the top of the game!”
Zayn did not need money, but he knew that money would make his future steps much more accessible. Being well-known as one of the best Players in Forgotten Lands would decrease the difficulty of his future steps even further.
He glanced back at the last files of the book he had been reading, and a vibrant smile formed on his lips.
“I got it. Follow me.”
Zayn knew what he was going to do.
“Everything will be alright!”
