All the leaders' attention was on the Divine Artifact, and they all swarmed over to watch. However, no one was the first to make a move. They all seemed to be wary of each other.
When the group of people came forward to watch the Divine Artifact, Bai Xiaowen quietly picked up the dark gold treasure chest and then silently retreated.
"Dior, you don't seem to be interested in the Divine Artifact?" Ahon asked.
Bai Xiaowen waved his hand. "I don't need it …"
"But you need to express your opinion on who should use this Divine Artifact," Ahon said.
Whoosh, whoosh. Everyone looked over.
Cold sweat dripped down the back of Bai Xiaowen's head. Ahon, look at your thick eyebrows and big eyes. Why are you so mean?
Bai Xiaowen was stopped by Ahon in front of everyone's eyes. He had no choice but to express his opinion. "The Divine Artifact will choose its user. Without that fate … it won't be able to unleash the Divine Artifact's true power. I think it's better for everyone here to take turns to try it out by drawing lots. "
This was indeed a good idea. They could only do so.
Seeing the leaders nod, Bai Xiaowen heaved a sigh of relief. At least he didn't offend anyone.
Other than Ahon, who already had a Divine Artifact, and the long-range job classes, the other close-combat leaders also participated in the drawing of lots.
Barbarian Basaka drew the first lot. He slowly walked to the floating Bone-Piercing Hammer and extended his hand. But before he could touch the Divine Artifact, he suddenly shrank back. He scratched the back of his head, pounded his firm chest muscles, and shouted a Yorni Barbarian battle song at the top of his lungs.
The battle song coupled with Basaka's circling around the Divine Artifact made him look like a shaman …
Knight Harold, who was in second place, showed a slight hint of disdain.
"If this kind of uncivilized Barbarian can gain the Divine Artifact's approval, that would be strange," Quartermaster Felix muttered.
After the battle song ended, Basaka suddenly grabbed the long handle of the hammer with one hand and raised it high.
Everyone fell silent.
Then … Balguera's Punishment. A hint of blood appeared on the dark red surface, and then Basaka's burly body emitted the sound of bones cracking …
"Roar roar roar roar roar …"
Basaka roared at the sky. It was unknown whether it was from pain or excitement. The trace of blood-red light flowed through his entire body, making his already burly body even more muscular and intimidating. An awe-inspiring pressure spread out.
Barca's aura continued to rise until it finally reached a critical point.
With a pop, it was as if a glass had been broken. The wind pressure spread out, and Barbasa's aura became as heavy as a mountain and as sharp as a knife. The surrounding leaders could not help but take a few steps back. This aura was fundamentally different from before!
"This is … success?" Quartermaster Felix murmured.
"I think so … What a coincidence …" Bai Xiaowen was also a little surprised. He did not expect the first person to succeed. He was quite familiar with the aura of a Lord. After all, he had personally nurtured a Lord in the Aaron Planar World.
"Prophet Dior." Harold frowned and looked over. "You said that the Sacred Artifact will choose its user?"
"Well, that's right." Bai Xiaowen nodded. He understood what Harold meant.
It was because they believed the prophet's words that the leaders of the various countries agreed to draw lots to decide the order. If the Sacred Artifact did not choose its user, and the first leader to obtain the Sacred Artifact could complete the advancement, these leaders would definitely not let the Barbarian Basaka be the first to touch the warhammer.
It was not only Harold. Panga the Dwarf and Felix the Quartermaster also had some doubts about Bai Xiaowen's words. However, they did not have any evidence, so they could not say much. They could only look at the new Lord Basaka with extreme envy and even jealousy.
Basaka was unaware. He waved the warhammer, but his hand accidentally slipped. The warhammer whistled and flew hundreds of feet away, falling into the lava pool.
"My Sacred Artifact!" Basaka shouted and rushed over. However, he stumbled a few steps and lost his balance. He fell to the ground like a dog, but he did not forget to reach out to the Sacred Artifact in the lava pool.
A burst of low laughter came from the crowd.
However, the Sacred Artifact warhammer in the lava pool floated up and slowly flew into Basaka's hand.
Ahan held back his laughter and helped Basaka up. "Be careful. You need some time to familiarize yourself with the power given to you by the Sacred Artifact before you can use it freely."
"Well, the Sacred Artifact has been born and has chosen its owner. This is a good thing. At least it did not fall into the hands of the Nagas. We won the battle at the Boinus Sea." Bai Xiaowen clapped his hands. "You do not have to feel regretful. Balguera's Punishment is not fated to be with you, but there are still a few Sacred Artifacts that have not been born …"
The leaders of the various countries listened to Bai Xiaowen's consolation and cheered up a little.
Bai Xiaowen continued, "Next, when we return to the mainland, the most important thing is to establish a truly stable alliance. I hope that after you return, you can also … Oh! "
At this point, Bai Xiaowen suddenly felt the Bracelet of Misfortune on his left wrist burning. He had already experienced this feeling once. He glanced at his left wrist. The Bracelet of Misfortune's expression did not change.
"Another illusion?" Bai Xiaowen muttered in his heart. He split his spiritual energy and probed the Bracelet of Misfortune.
The illusion arrived.
It was a huge underground world full of stalactites. There was only a natural crystal pillar supporting the dome. In the center of the crystal pillar, a ball of light could be vaguely seen.
Endless seawater poured in. A huge figure with nine heads let out an earth-shattering roar. Although no sound could be heard in the illusion, the surrounding dust and rocks rustled down. Bai Xiaowen could feel the terror of this roar.
The ball in the center of the crystal pillar was the first to collapse. Then, the crystal pillar broke and the underground world collapsed …
His vision changed. He was looking down. It was a forest. Monstrous waves swept over. Towering trees broke in half and the forest turned into a swamp.
Bai Xiaowen suddenly opened his eyes.
"Lord Prophet?"
Everyone surrounded Bai Xiaowen. Ahan looked concerned.
Bai Xiaowen sighed. "I'm sorry. Something happened just now."
"What happened?" Dorothea asked.
"I saw an illusion, but I don't know if it was the past or the future." Bai Xiaowen shook his head. He had seen a similar illusion once before. It was the "past" of the Bonus Islands. But this time, he didn't know where the illusion was.
Bai Xiaowen really wanted to tell them the scene of the illusion, but due to the restrictions of the Prophet's rules, he couldn't make it public.
The fleet returned from the Scorching Current Eye. On the ship, the White Phoenix team found some time to draw the dark gold treasure chest.
