"Should I say that you're lucky or unlucky?"
Russell sighed softly. "If you're unlucky, you might not be able to find this relic that's most suitable for you. But if you're lucky, the Passing Water Spear is incomplete. Otherwise, it wouldn't be Xiangjun, but a Tier 4 Yunzhongjun … It's so subtle that it gives me a headache."
If the Passing Water Spear was still complete, it would be Yunzhongjun's stigmata. Huai Shi wouldn't need to find an item containing the divinity of the sea to prepare for advancement. He only needed the crystal of the Fountain of Light to complete the final ritual.
But the problem was that the former Yunzhongjun had already turned into Xiangjun, and the former Passing Water Spear had become a broken iron rod. Moreover, it was unruly and had an astonishing hostility.
It was not far from being completely eroded by hell.
"Instead of saying that he's dying, it's better to say that he hates the water, right?" Luo Su said, "Until the very end, I'm afraid he was still hating himself … … That guy, what can you say about him?"
Huai Shi stroked the Passing Water in his hand and felt the sorrowful sound in it. He couldn't help but ask, "Ying Fangzhou? Is that the name of that person? "
"Yes, your senior. He was even older than me. When I became a member of the Utopia, he was already a mainstay.
He had always been a loner and didn't like to deal with others, nor did he like to place his hopes on others. "
Russell said, "Now that I think about it, I really don't know if I should say that he was arrogant or violent. When I worked under him, I would be protected like a baby.
Sometimes, even his subordinates couldn't stand it. They complained and complained countless times.
That guy always thought that he could handle everything alone.
But there were always times when he couldn't handle it … "
Russell sighed silently. "After so many years, I still don't understand why he didn't call for help until the Abyss Outpost sank.
Did he not want to burden us? If they knew that he was still alive at that time, everyone would've rushed to rescue him …
Maybe he just didn't have the face to face others, so he wanted to die. "
Huai Shi was silent.
In the silence, he could hear the distant echoes from the broken body of the spear. It was a wave of regret that swept through like a surging tide, as if it would never end.
He lamented the fall of that ideal.
It would resist anyone's control and would only seal itself off until it was silently annihilated in the darkness.
The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, leaving behind only those who regret it for ten thousand years.
He hated water.
"Then let's call it Hateful Water."
Huai Shi swung his hand, and the broken gun in his hand buzzed, causing the entire building to tremble again. It was the water flowing in the pipes that caused ripples.
Violent energy surged.
"Do you need me to get you another one?" Russell asked. "It seems like you're not very compatible with it."
"No need. It's to my liking."
Huai Shi lowered his head and looked at the body of the spear that buzzed like a dragon on his knee. He whispered to it, "Before this hatred dissipates, we still have a long time to be friends."
As if it understood Huai Shi's words, the body of the Hateful Water Spear shook again, causing a crack between his thumb and forefinger. Blood seeped out, and then the wound quickly healed and disappeared.
Russell laughed. "Be careful. It has a temper."
"I know." Huai Shi put it back into the box and shrugged indifferently. "Anyway, I have a chatterbox here. They can talk all the time."
With Xiang Jun's relic, the Hateful Water, Huai Shi at least had power and weapon that he could use during the period when the Sacred Mark was disconnected. Moreover, this power was very compatible with his own Supreme, and there was a lot of room for him to use.
"So, is there anything else that you need help with?" Russell asked at the end.
"Yes, there's a lot."
Huai Shi rubbed his face. "I'm lacking a lot of things here. Could you help me settle the Spring of Light crystal?"
While the Spring of Light crystal was precious, the Ivory Tower was so huge that there should not be a single piece, right?
"Of course there's such a thing."
Russell answered matter-of-factly. "Although it's basically extinct, the Ivory Tower is a remnant of the Utopia and naturally has a lot of it.
Excluding the one I used for my ascension, there are now four pieces. One is installed on the iron crystal base, the core of the grandmaster's furnace. Another is installed in the Dragon Summoning Flute, the most important lens. The other two are kept in the two Abyss campuses, important components of the main framework of creation. "
Luo Su shrugged and replied with a smile, "Any one of these four places can help you advance. Which one do you choose?"
Huai Shi rolled his eyes. "Then can I have all of them?"
"That will depend on your own efforts." Russell egged him on. "Go talk to Isaac, Mihail, Ramanujan, and Madam Chen. As long as you persuade them, I will definitely support you unconditionally!"
He might as well not have said it.
Huai Shi could not be bothered with him.
There were four of these things in the Ivory Tower, but these four things were used in the vital parts of the Ivory Tower. Huai Shi was not so arrogant that he would reverse the organization's plan for his own ascension.
The Dragon Summoning Flute, the iron crystal base, and the two Abyss campuses.
One was the top radar in the entire territory, the other was the exploration base of hell, and the other two were the assets that Russell had worked so hard to gather over the years.
If any of them were missing, the Ivory Tower would suffer a great loss.
"But aren't you going to the Helios workshop?" Russell asked. "Go ask them. Helios definitely has these things!"
"Really?"
"Look at what you're saying. Do you think I would lie to …"
Before he finished speaking, after noticing Huai Shi's numb eyes, Russell suddenly coughed twice. "Don't worry, I will never lie to you about this.
Even if the entire territory is destroyed, Helios' treasury will definitely have these things! "
"You've been there?" Huai Shi's eyes became more and more suspicious. He even began to guess if this old guy had done something there when he was young, and now he wanted to use him as a scapegoat.
"Isn't this nonsense!" Russell was about to get angry. "Don't tell me you still haven't figured out what the Fountain of Light is?"
"Isn't it just … a spring?"
Looking at Huai Shi's confused face, Russell was a little angry. After staring at him for a long time, he could not help but look up to the sky and sigh.
He forgot that this thing was not something Huai Shi could access.
In the end, that woman Tongi dropped the ball and did not even mention this.
"Listen up, Huai Shi. The so-called Fountain of Light is not some spring water, border, or place in hell. It's a phenomenon!"
It was a phenomenon created by the gods.
To be precise, it was a phenomenon created when the gods fell.
When the gods of the past faced death, their enormous bodies would fall from the highest point of the realm. The Will of Heaven, the miracles, and even the Origin Substance that they had accumulated throughout their lives would flow out from their gradually crumbling bodies like blood, turning into a vast stream of light that penetrated the heavens and the earth.
Collapse.
All the way to the deepest part of hell.
This was the last favor left behind by the gods.
The magnificent rainbow light that penetrated the present realm, border, and hell seemed to distort time, connecting the past and the future, creating countless untouchable mirages.
It was because of this that it was called the 'Fountain of Light'!
And the crystallization of the Fountain of Light was the essence condensed from the dissipated providence …
"In other words …"
Huai Shi was dumbfounded for a long time before he reacted. "If I want this thing, I have to find a god to stab to death first?"
"Regardless of whether you can stab them to death or not, the gods are now about to become 'rare creatures', Huai Shi." Russell looked at him with a disappointed expression. "They are strictly protected by the Astronomical Society, okay?"
There were only three gods left in the world.
The fate of the other one was unknown.
If one of them died for Huai Shi's advancement, it would be a big joke. This was not a matter of the genealogy fighting to the death, but the Astronomical Society would make Huai Shi, this traitor, die without a burial place!
"You can't do anything about the living ones, but you can think of killing them!" Russell's voice trembled. "Let's not talk about other things, isn't there a section above Helios? You don't want meat or blood, you just want a crystal fragment less than the size of a finger … You've been a tool for so long, how can you not even talk about wages! "
"Amazing!"
Huai Shi felt that he had reached a new height of stupidity. "Such a precious thing, you want it just because you want it. Do you really think Helios is your home?"
"If it's not for you, can't you steal or rob it?" Russell's face was full of resentment and disgust. He slammed the table and scolded angrily, "Back then, I …"
As soon as the words came out, he felt that something was wrong and forcibly swallowed them.
Huai Shi's eyes became dangerous.
"What did you do back then?"
"…" Russell looked away, waved his hand and said, "Wasn't the price not agreed? Then I took a little more for myself. I worked so hard for so long, what's wrong with taking a Light Reflecting Crystal? "
So, you really did do it before!
Huai Shi felt that his worldview had received a new shock. Was there something wrong with the style of the Celestial genealogy? It was not without reason that humans and ghosts hated them!
They really touched them wherever they went!
"Don't say that the teacher didn't take care of you, Huai Shi. I've already given you the method. We don't have any surplus food. It's up to you whether to have a fat New Year or starve! "Russell said with a solemn face." Just do it, I believe in you! "
"Can't you f * cking believe in something better?!"
Huai Shi did not want people to have any expectations of him when it came to breaking the law!
Unfortunately, before Huai Shi could speak, Russell had already hung up the phone.
It was already the next day when Huai Shi accepted the fact that he had fallen into a trap.
After arranging the rest of the work, Huai Shi once again met Marcus from the Mercury Agency.
"Mr. Huai Shi, I have reported your reply."
Marcus reported, "Next, I will accompany you to Rome. We will rest in Pompeii for a day, and then take the manned spacecraft of the Rome Space Agency to Minerva IV Space Station in the early morning of the next day, and then go to the moon a day later. When you get there, you can …"
"Wait!"
Huai Shi felt that his ears were not right. He raised his eyes and looked at the opposite side. "Where did you just say we were going?"
Marcus adjusted his glasses and answered calmly.
"The moon."
