"Elemental God Equipment? The ultimate authority of the Primordial God? There's such a thing in existence? "
"Yes, this is the highest secret of the Elemental Gods. But now, all four elemental God Equipment have been lost. Although the Elemental Gods know their locations due to their ability to sense God Equipment, but …"
From a certain standpoint, the four elements were all creatures from other planes. Modern magic, which used elemental magic as its foundation, was naturally a creation from another plane. That was why the Anti- Knight was able to directly expel the power of the elements and create a mana vacuum. This naturally meant that magic and magic items would be expelled.
As for whether or not the power of Law could expel them? Although I would need to test it, I personally believed that it was possible based on this principle. After all, the power of Law was currently dependent on the God of Law. The God of Law's Divine Power Server was naturally a type of Divine Power.
However, this wasn't a complete expulsion for no reason. It was just like how positive energy and negative energy fought against each other. Only a large amount of water could extinguish a fire, while a small amount of water would evaporate. In the end, it still depended on individual strength. This wasn't too ridiculous, but the other job class, Desecration Priest, was quite ridiculous — she could steal divine power.
I didn't have any information on Desecration Priests yet. Apart from the fact that the karmic connection between me and Victoria wasn't too close, the main reason was that this job class itself wasn't perfected yet.
From a certain standpoint, Victoria had a typical Dark Elf mentality. She wouldn't walk down a path that wasn't perfected. Naturally, Desecration Priests weren't like Diana, who had already created the Anti- Knight class. Since she had many former priests under her command, there would be many subjects who wanted to experiment on her power. Naturally, there would be others who could help her.
Judging from the abilities they had displayed on the battlefield, they were a mystical ability that could steal and draw upon the enemy's Divine Arts, magic, and racial talents.
Yes, on the battlefield, they had even stolen the Sea Tribe's racial talent of controlling giant waves, which resulted in an incredible result. However, I had my own guesses as to how exactly this happened. Perhaps it had something to do with me, but the specifics still needed to be confirmed by the Sea Tribe. It would be too early to say for sure.
But, if I thought about it with my knees, if I could borrow the Divine Concepts and unique Divine Arts of every True God, not only would this ability be ridiculously powerful, it would also violate the authority and uniqueness of every True God's church. Perhaps this job class had already attracted the attention of the Gods, which would cause a huge commotion. Right now, I needed to think about how to deal with Aillé's questions.
"This is really troublesome … I hope that Victoria can give me a suitable explanation."
At the very least, in the eyes of outsiders, Victoria and Diana were my subordinates. Their actions were all under my orders. When Victoria couldn't bear the consequences, she would naturally find trouble with me. It was also because of this reason that Kamdiran directly came to look for me.
The elemental artifact that he mentioned was very interesting.
"If the Elemental Throne gives the Elemental Gods an endless source of energy and regenerative abilities, then the Elemental God Equipment makes the Elemental Gods fundamentally different from ordinary Elemental Lords. There are many things that can't be explained clearly with words, but if you personally see it, you'll immediately understand. "
This sounded quite mysterious and harsh, but I could more or less guess why Kamdiran had come to look for me.
At the very least, when I fought against Ömdiroken alone, he didn't bring out any elemental God Equipment. His power level was only that of a peak Earth Elemental Lord. There wasn't any foundational difference. His scariest abilities of unlimited power and regenerative abilities were also gone after the Elemental Throne collapsed, and his melee combat abilities were countered, which was why I was able to win.
It would seem that Ömdiroken wasn't at his peak form at that time? I felt that this was even more interesting after hearing this.
After making some connections, I could even guess at Kamdiran's intentions and where the Elemental God Equipment was.
"The Wind Elemental God Equipment is in a forbidden zone in the Earth Elemental Plane, and the Earth Elemental God Equipment is in a forbidden zone in the Wind Elemental Plane. The Elemental Tide there is far too dense, and I can't go there …"
Since the Elemental God Equipment was so important, the existence that had sealed the Elemental Gods back in the day naturally wouldn't leave them alone. But in order to seal these God Equipment, apart from the Elemental Plane, there would be no other choice. And the places where the Elemental God Equipment was stored would likely be places that even the original owner of the Elemental God Equipment couldn't go to. That way, even if the original owner of the Elemental God Equipment escaped, they wouldn't be able to immediately return to their peak form.
According to Kamdiran's explanation, his God Equipment was stored in the infinite hourglass, a place that only the Earth Elemental God could reach. Meanwhile, the Water Elemental God's God Equipment was stored in a place that only the Fire Elemental God could reach … This was obviously a trap.
Find help? This was already far beyond the scope of mortals. The Chaos Faction, which had unsealed the Elemental Gods, only needed the Elemental Gods to cause the Elemental Tide to rise. Since the Elemental God Equipment was so powerful, why would the Chaos Faction help the Earth Elemental Gods retrieve the Elemental Gods' God Equipment and turn them from fighters to bosses?
Last time, before Ömdiroken's battle with Kamdiran, he had tried to convince the Earth Elemental Lords to do their job so diligently. It was likely that he had also gone to take a look at where the Wind Elemental God Equipment was stored, but he helplessly discovered that he couldn't enter it no matter what. In the end, he didn't even tell us about this. Perhaps he had even made arrangements around the perimeter, afraid that outsiders would learn about the God Equipment's existence here.
Now, his motive was even more obvious. Seeing that Diana might be able to retrieve the God Equipment for him, he had eagerly run over. Kamdiran was truly practical.
At this time, of course, I wouldn't immediately agree to his request. I still needed to consider what I could extort from him. That God Equipment of the Elemental God Equipment was quite tempting. At the very least, it would be enough for me to use when I needed to balance the Frigidwinter Earth.
While Kamdiran was still hesitating, and I was full of ambition as I thought about the future, we arrived at a city wall that stretched as far as the eye could see.
We had finally arrived at the ancient city of Bardi. Our journey had also come to an end.
…
Not long after we entered the city, we agreed on a time to meet with Orloss the day after tomorrow. Dragon Knight Archduke Orloss and I then split up. He wanted me to immediately meet with Orloss, but I refused with the excuse that I was too tired from traveling.
Actually, I had been in a deep sleep for seven days during my evolution, so my mental state was at its peak. How could I possibly be tired from traveling? I simply wanted to gather more information, or at the very least meet up with my subordinates and check the situation before going to have a chat with Orloss.
As for the Dragons' important matter? Halent had told me that the entrance to Dragon World was being guarded by an elderly senior, and that I would need to notify him before I could enter.
After Halent told me where Cher and the others were temporarily staying, I wasn't in a hurry to meet up with Cher and the others. Instead, I sent Little Red and the others to meet up with me at the embassy while I walked around the streets and observed the situation.
For some unknown reason, even when I was far away in the Forest of Dreams, I always had an ominous premonition when I decided to come here. It was as if I was about to meet with great misfortune, as if some calamity was waiting for me.
I personally didn't believe in prophecies to begin with, but this omen I felt was different from those that didn't come with a reason. It was as if I had forgotten something, which caused me to feel uneasy. It was as if I had played around for an entire summer and had to copy all my summer homework to make up for it, but was still worried that something would go wrong when I went to school … By the way, back when I was still a student, it seemed that something would go wrong every time. Thinking about it like this made me even more worried.
Plus, my System had recently been constantly trying to sell me things like "Resurrection Ankhs" and "Resurrection Coins", which made me feel even more uneasy.
What? Why wouldn't the System buy them out of kindness? Actually, Resurrection Coins would only be effective if they were used. That's right, I had to die first before using them. Resurrection Ankhs would require me to learn the Tauren race's natural talent, Ancestral Summoning. Perhaps I would first have to change my bloodline to that of a Tauren. At any rate, my System had never had any good intentions. She was probably just making fun of me.
But this made me feel even more unconfident. Since my System's attitude was clearly that it wanted to watch a show, then there really would be a show to watch.
"From the moment I entered this city, my instincts were warning me to hurry up and escape. But some things are more problematic the more you try to avoid them. And with my current Luck stat, it's likely that I won't be able to escape in the end. I might as well face them head-on, don't you think?"
I turned around and saw that there wasn't a single person in sight. The streets were abnormally empty since it was nighttime. However, I could sense that I was being watched by at least ten people.
"Shadow Movement, disguise, escape through the earth, and there's even someone playing with camouflage … Are you trying to make me laugh? Or are you playing a ninja competition? You've done quite a good job at gathering information, but I don't know which faction you're from. What business do you have with me? "
"Seven …"
"Nine …"
"Thirteen …"
And then, a bunch of numbers popped up behind me. Not only that, each person was saying one number without repeating the same number.
"What's the meaning of this? Is this some sort of password? "
And so, I was quite confused. Could this be the head of an intelligence agency? But there shouldn't be something like this. They were even playing with numbers. Just how many digits was I supposed to say when there were more than ten numbers?
"What's yours?"
And then, as expected, someone asked me for my number.
"… Could it be that the intelligence agents are having a gathering and are reporting their own numbers? I get it! "
Since I already guessed what this was about, I naturally just went along with it. Perhaps I discovered some secret, which made me quite interested.
"I'm ninety-seven!"
Typically, intelligence agencies would have more powerful numbers the closer to the start of the exam. But since there were already two digits, I would naturally be ignored if I reported the lowest digit number. Perhaps I would be able to get by with it.
"Is it ninety-seven?"
"I don't think so. Didn't they say sixty-eight last time?"
"Perhaps some old man was so happy that he recognized a few more."
"He recognized thirty of them at once? At such a time? What a joke! "
"Are you all idiots? Can't you tell that this brat is toying with you!"
The moment I said this, there was finally someone who was a little smarter. He couldn't bear to watch any longer.
And then, I sighed when I saw everyone's hostile gazes. It seemed that I still couldn't fool them. I prepared to draw my sword with my right hand.
"Actually, I'm not ninety-seven. I'm … 9527!"
Alright, now everyone knew that I had fooled them, and they were all charging at me.
"Honestly, this is so strange. I feel like my luck stat has dropped even further since I entered this city."
