It was a war of attrition. On one side was Thief God Milton, a weak god of poverty, and on the other side was a grandmaster alchemist with unlimited top-level gems and 40 ancient battle forts.
From the very beginning, Thief God Milton was teleported into the starlight defensive circle. His fate was sealed.
Who would've thought that a god like Thief God Milton, who could enter and exit almost every magic circle, would be trapped in the golden castle, even if he was a weak god?
Before he snuck into the golden castle, he couldn't have imagined that he would be able to do something like this. He was very confident before he entered the castle.
Thief God Milton had a few advantages, but he met his natural enemy in the golden castle. He could freely enter and exit all the circles, and he was able to successfully walk around the golden castle safely.
However, as soon as he used his power of the Will, the black spirit would make it impossible for him to hide. On top of that, the research spirit and the magic circle spirit were working together to analyze the situation. This was why Thief God Milton was trapped in the starlight protection circle.
The five holy crystals increased Thief God Milton's power, but it still wasn't enough to break through the starlight defense circle formed by forty battle forts.
Perhaps the 'Starlight Defense Array' wasn't the strongest defensive array, as this name had always been held by the 'Doomsday Defense Wall'. However, it was the most difficult defensive array to break through.
The battle forts had the ability to repair themselves, so any attack would be a waste of energy.
Thief God Milton's madness lasted for a long time. After 2 hours, he finally slowed down.
During this period of time, many people had already sent messages asking what had happened.
The golden castle suddenly sent all the guests away, and there was a strange tremor before they left. This made all the organizations that were friends with Abel very concerned.
Wizard Clemens from the investigation department of the Wizard Union was the first to send a message, followed by the elves, the dwarves, the lightning clan, and so on. Within 2 hours, Abel replied many times.
He used the excuse of testing a new magic circle as an excuse. He didn't want any accidents to happen in this battle.
Thief God Milton didn't have the confidence to fight anymore. He didn't have much divine power left in his body, so he could only maintain his body for a while.
"Grandmaster Bennett, I surrender to you!" What he said surprised Abel.
Hearing this, Abel couldn't make a decision for a while. Although he saw the god of war in a deep sleep, it was done by the Wizard Union. It had nothing to do with him.
He had no experience in dealing with a god, so killing a god was out of the question.
If gods were so easy to kill, the Wizard Union wouldn't have spent so much effort to imprison them.
Plus, he was a rank 25 law-defying wizard. There was no way he could guarantee that a god would be under his control for a long time.
If Thief God Milton escaped, the first thing he would do would be to seek revenge. He didn't think he would have a second chance to let Thief God Milton into the starlight defensive circle.
The stupidest way he could think of was to keep draining Thief God Milton's energy until Thief God Milton fell asleep. It was the safest way.
"Thief God Milton, what are you going to use to guarantee your surrender?" Abel lowered his voice.
Thief God Milton heard Abel's words and felt very depressed. What did this have to do with him? Abel didn't have the ability to control him, and Abel didn't have the ability to do so. He chose to surrender, but Abel couldn't accept it.
Just as Thief God Milton was thinking, the starlight defensive circle began to move. The Fire Tooth Battle Fort that had been hiding nearby entered the starlight defensive circle.
The Fire Tooth Battle Fort was also a battle fort. Although it was not part of the starlight protection circle, the spirit of the Fire Tooth Battle Fort was able to communicate with the spirits of the 40 battle forts. Therefore, the Fire Tooth Battle Fort could easily enter the starlight protection circle.
Thief God Milton didn't know how to answer, but he suddenly felt a surge of energy. He sensed a threat.
Following that, the Fire Tooth Battle Fort's energy cannon began to charge and began to unleash a barrage of attacks on the starlight defensive circle.
The energy cannon was one of the least powerful attacks in the Fire Tooth Battle Fort. Although it was the least powerful attack, it was still enough to damage the surface of the battle fort.
However, the attacks were still inside the circle, so all the damage would be absorbed by the battle fort. There wouldn't be too much damage that couldn't be repaired in time.
Thief God Milton was different. He was inside the circle, so there was no space for him to take advantage of his speed.
On top of that, Thief God Milton didn't have that much space. Apart from a small portion of the energy cannon's attack that hit the circle, Thief God Milton took the rest of the damage.
With every attack, Thief God Milton's body would flash with a golden light. It was the divine power in his body that was automatically defending.
The situation now was the complete opposite of the beginning. In the beginning, Thief God Milton was attacking, and the starlight defensive circle was passively receiving the attacks.
Now, the Fire Tooth Battle Fort was attacking, and Thief God Milton was forced to defend himself. He didn't have much divine power to begin with.
Thief God Milton's five meters tall body began to shrink again. Every time the energy cannon's attack landed, a golden light would erupt from his body. After a few more attacks, his body would shrink a little.
Five meters, four meters … When he reached three meters tall, his body stopped shrinking.
Thief God Milton's body was already three meters tall. No matter how tall he was, he was still made of divine power. If he used up all of his divine power, his body would become three meters tall.
Thief God Milton no longer had the pride of a divine spirit, "Stop attacking. If you keep attacking, I'll fall into a deep sleep. Grandmaster Bennett, please, don't let me fall into a deep sleep!"
Thief God Milton was in a very bad state. His body was constantly being attacked, and the clothes that were made of energy were all gone. He was naked, and he had to endure the attacks.
Abel controlled the Fire Tooth Battle Fort with his power of the Will. He wanted to know more about divine spirits, and he wasn't going to let go of such a good opportunity.
The first thing he wanted to do was to find the invisibility cloak. He thought that Thief God Milton must have found him through the power of the will in the cloak's recognition circle.
Abel said coldly, "Thief God Milton, I want you to let go of the cloak's recognition circle. You know what I'm talking about."
Thief God Milton quickly yelled, "No problem, no problem at all!"
At this point, it didn't matter what he found. Once a divine spirit like him fell into a deep sleep, there was a high chance that he would be trapped forever.
He immediately cut off the Invisibility Cloak's spiritual power in his soul. Although the loss of a bit of spiritual power made his face even more unsightly, he still quickly completed the process of giving up the cloak.
Abel also sensed the special reaction of the cloak in his holy portal bag. This cloak had been with him for a long time, but now it was like it had no owner.
Abel's power of the will could easily enter the recognition circle. The power of the will that belonged to Thief God Milton had lost its owner, so it began to dissipate.
Abel didn't want to waste this power of the will. This was the power of the will of a divine spirit. First, he left his own power of the will in the recognition circle. Afterward, he used his power of the will to wrap around the power of the will and assimilate it.
The power of the will had lost its ability to resist. Slowly, it became a part of Abel's power of the will.
The range of his power of the will had increased from 1600 meters to 50 meters. He was satisfied with this.
Since the Divine Artifact Invisibility Cloak had recognized him as its master, the Mystic Headband that had been hidden in the cloak could no longer be placed here. He separated the Mystic Headband, which was still in the Divine Artifact Portal Bag.
On the other hand, the cloak had become his true divine object. It directly merged with his body.
A divine artifact in this state was a divine artifact that was truly possessed, and not just the right to use it.
Abel smiled and said, "Thief God Milton, you see, we can still talk. Your cooperation has allowed us to communicate!"
Thief God Milton asked in anticipation, "Grandmaster Bennett, can you let go of me?"
"Thief God Milton, do you really want to use a divine item that belongs to me in exchange for your life?" Abel's smile disappeared as he spoke in a flat tone.
Thief God Milton couldn't help but ask again, "Grandmaster Bennett, do you have any other requests?"
Abel lowered his voice, "Thief God Milton, it's simple. I'm curious about the heritage of divine spirits. Give me a copy of it!"
Thief God Milton hesitated for a moment, "Grandmaster Bennett, the heritage of divine spirits has been banned by the Wizard Union. What do you want it for?"
The heritage of divine spirits belonged to Thief God Milton, so he could only give it to Abel. He didn't want Grandmaster Bennett to have too much knowledge of divine spirits. It would be very bad for him.
He had already lost his freedom. Once Grandmaster Bennett had some knowledge of divine spirits, he might be able to come up with a way to deal with him.
The problem was, if he didn't give it to Abel, he would have to face Grandmaster Bennett's constant attacks and fall into a deep sleep.
Abel continued to threaten, "Oh right, Thief God Milton. I don't have a complete heritage of divine spirits, but you should know about my relationship with the Goddess Temple. I'll find someone to verify the knowledge you give me. If there's a problem, you need to think about the consequences!"
To be honest, he would definitely find the elves of the Moon Temple to verify the knowledge. There was no way he was going to risk it.
One had to know that if one took a wrong step in this regard, they would be doomed eternally.
Thief God Milton's eyes flashed with a strange light, "Of course not, Grandmaster Bennett. Please reach out your power of the Will. The black mist here is preventing my power of the Will from reaching out. I'll pass it to you through my power of the Will!"
He was thinking that as long as Grandmaster Bennett extended his power of the Will, he could use his own power of the Will to control Grandmaster Bennett's power of the Will and force Grandmaster Bennett to listen to him.
It was a good idea, but Abel was not stupid.
Abel smiled, "No need, Thief God Milton. My spirit will connect with your power of the Will. All you need to do is pass the knowledge of divine spirits to my spirit!"
While he was talking, the ancient steel that surrounded Thief God Milton extended a long strip of steel from his head. It extended all the way to Thief God Milton's forehead and made contact with it.
Thief God Milton had no choice but to pass all his knowledge to Abel. It wasn't that he didn't want to do something.
On one hand, the knowledge of the divine spirit inheritance system wasn't that precious. In fact, if it wasn't for the wizard union's suppression, the divine spirit inheritance system would have been spread everywhere in the divine spirit dynasty.
This was why there were so many divine spirits back then. The divine spirits didn't care about spreading their knowledge.
The difficulty of becoming a divine spirit was not the inheritance of a divine spirit. It was the steady source of faith and devout followers.
On the other hand, if Grandmaster Bennett got a fake inheritance and really went to the Moon Goddess Temple to verify it, he would be the one in trouble.
If he offended Grandmaster Bennett again for something that wasn't that important, there was no need to think about the consequences.
Abel didn't care about what Thief God Milton was thinking. With the help of the world stone fragment, the research spirit was able to receive all the knowledge that was being transferred to him.
Although he didn't know if this knowledge was correct or not, he still checked it out out of curiosity.
Among them, he saw the information about the "divine crystal." There were many uses for the "divine crystal," but one of them was extremely important. It was the currency between the gods.
God power crystals were a kind of hard currency between the gods. It had a wide range of uses, but its source was limited. This made god power crystals the most important resource for the gods.
If you wanted to form a divine body, you could slowly convert it with the power of faith over the years. This process was related to the number of followers and how devout they were, but it was a very long process.
