It turned out that the Sea Soul Weapon was a fragment of the Sea God's divinity!
Now, Dafei finally understood why the Sea Soul Weapon was so cruel and greedy. Not to mention the souls of ordinary creatures, it could even absorb the souls of god-tier creatures like the Hydra. Moreover, it could even grow and level up after absorbing a lot of it. As expected, only a great god like the Sea God could have such power! However, since it was a divinity, would it be so easy to extract its energy?
Dafei asked in surprise, "Will it work if it's a divinity?"
"Under normal circumstances, it's very difficult. A divinity is like a black hole with a huge suction force. It can only enter but not exit. However, the current situation is that the divinity has absorbed too much soul energy, far exceeding the divinity's ability to transform. A large amount of energy has nowhere to go, causing the divinity to evolve and mutate. It's hard to say whether this mutation is a good or bad thing, but this unstable factor makes it possible for us to extract the saturated energy from the Sea Soul Weapon. However, it will take some time, so Warriors, please wait here for a while. "
It's good that we can extract the energy, but does that mean we have to wash the Sea Soul Weapon clean? Even if I don't care about the god-tier Sea Soul Weapon of the Hydra, I still have to think about Deirdre and those elite Banshees.
Dafei asked again, "However, the Sea Soul Weapon has absorbed the soul of one of my defeated heroes and the souls of many elite Banshees. Will it affect them if we extract the energy?"
Cesar shook his head. "The principle of the Sea Soul Weapon is to use the divinity to temper or fuse powerful souls, so that the newly formed souls can be used by the Sea God. Low-level souls that can't be tempered will also be transformed into magic power. However, the souls of heroes are more noble and pure than the souls of any other living beings, so the possibility of them being affected is not high. Please rest assured, Warriors! As for the other souls … "
At this point, Nazaire said sternly, "It's hard for us to guarantee the survival of the other souls. Our extraction is actually equivalent to speeding up the transformation of the Sea Soul Battle, or rather, making the Sea Soul Battle more cruel. Some souls that could have been preserved after a slow transformation might be eliminated during the accelerated process. In short, only the truly powerful souls will survive until the end. So, warrior, please consider this point carefully."
Dafei frowned. Although it was good that Deirdre was fine, and he was confident that the soul of a powerful being like the Hydra Electric Eel could be preserved, it was hard to guarantee his 44 sweethearts! But now that things had come to this, what the hell was there to say? The Sea Soul Warship was already swollen to such an extent, big brother couldn't possibly wait a year or two for them to come out safely, right?
In short, according to Deirdre's rule of survival, it was a gamble!
Dafei continued to ask, "Is there any way for the Archangel to resurrect this hero?"
Cesar smiled helplessly. "If this Sea Soul Warship trapped an angel hero, perhaps I can think of a way. But this hero is obviously a demon, so I really can't do anything. And under normal circumstances, a hero's soul should not be trapped in this place. This situation is beyond my understanding. "
Of course, this was because Deirdre's soul was not a complete hero's soul. However, Deirdre had already made arrangements for her funeral. She claimed that as long as the demon contract was not broken, the demon would not die, so there should not be any problems. In short, it was decided.
Dafei nodded. "Okay, then Archangel, please extract the energy!"
Cesar nodded in relief. "Warrior, I will show you a place. Please follow me!" As he spoke, a golden magic circle appeared on the floor of the hall.
"Please!" Cesar's figure disappeared.
Dafei stepped into the array, and the scene changed. In front of him was a golden light, and Dafei appeared in a golden hall surging with dazzling magic power. In the middle of the hall was a huge rotating magic circle that emitted a dim light. In the middle of the circle was a huge machine that looked like a globe, slowly rotating.
While Link was still in shock, Cesar said, "Warrior, this is the inner core of God's Punishment City. This machine is the heart that supports the barrier of God's Punishment City, and it is also a tool to extract energy. We lost the War of God's Punishment 10,000 years ago. Perhaps God's Punishment City itself has lost its strategic value, but this machine cannot fall into the hands of the demons. We have been defending this place for 10,000 years to protect this machine and wait for our superiors to take care of it. Once God's Punishment City is breached, the first thing we will do is detonate this machine and live or die with God's Punishment City! "
So this was the Protoss energy conversion technology that Lore was so proud of! Dafei asked, "What's the name of this machine?"
Cesar said seriously, "Perpetual Motion Machine!"
Dafei almost spat out a mouthful of saliva! As expected of a godly machine. I remember when I was studying the Conservation of Energy in high school, the textbook specifically denied the existence of a perpetual motion machine! In the end, mortals really can't comprehend God's technology.
Cesar continued, "Warrior, get ready to begin. Please place the Sea Soul Staff in the center of the magic circle."
There was nothing more to say, so let's begin.
— — System Notification: You have temporarily handed over the Sea Soul Staff for the collection quest "God's Punishment City's Resources Collection". The quest reward will be issued afterwards.
As the Sea Soul Staff was placed in the center of the magic circle, the previously dim light suddenly brightened. At the same time, the perpetual motion machine began to spin faster.
Cesar said seriously, "Warrior, for the time being, I will be focusing on maintaining the magic circle and the machine's operation. I will leave the day-to-day management of God's Punishment City to Lore. If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask Lore."
Dafei nodded. "Understood!"
With a flash of light, the scenery changed, and Dafei returned to the main hall of God's Punishment City.
Lore was already waiting in the hall. She said with a serious expression, "Warrior, the Archangel has shown great trust and appreciation for you by allowing you to see the core perpetual motion machine of God's Punishment City. As long as you do your job well, the Stairway to Heaven will open its doors to you. However, Warrior, you are not yet Level 50, so you still can't receive any achievement quests. However, this won't stop you from earning Reputation here. From now on, you will receive a 10% discount in all shops in God's Punishment City."
— — System Notification: Your Reputation in God's Punishment City has become 'Respected'!
Holy shit, this is Respected? What Stairway to Heaven? You're all stuck here without even seeing the light of day! Dafei couldn't help but laugh. "Miss Lore, I've brought a lot of deputies with me this time. If we continue to destroy the sealing formation below the city, will we be able to promote them to Crusaders?"
Lore couldn't help but be surprised. "Do you have an examination certificate issued by the Holy See?"
Holy shit, with the way the game worked, who knew how many Reputation quests it would take to get an examination certificate from the Holy See? Dafei shook his head helplessly. "No."
Lore sighed. "Warriors, the rules of Heaven must be followed step by step. Although I admire you and believe in your ability, we can't act recklessly without an examination certificate."
Dafei hurriedly said, "Isn't the examination certificate just a formality? Our situation is dire and we need powerful reinforcements. We need to be flexible. Didn't we send troops to save Ramiel last time? It's not like this is the first time! "
Lore immediately hesitated. "Indeed, under normal circumstances, without an examination certificate issued by the Holy See, Warriors can't use the Holy See's teleportation formation to come here. Therefore, the examination certificate is both a certificate of loyalty and a pass to teleport. However, Warriors can actually bypass the Holy See and get here. This is the first time I've seen such a situation … "
Dafei's eyebrows jumped. Something's up! He hurriedly said, "Miss Lore, my loyalty and character don't need to be verified anymore, right? At the end of the day, is the examination certificate just a pass? How about this, I take the examination first, and then get an examination certificate? I know the Archbishop of St. Paul, John Paul. I pass the examination first, and Miss Lore or the Archangel will let me bring a letter down to get a few examination certificates. Wouldn't it be fine? "
This was called getting on first, then getting on first, and it used to be Mayor Eroline's godly skill! This meant that the system's game program supported this kind of play. If a weak mortal like the mayor knew how to play, there was no reason why a beautiful angel like her couldn't, right?
At this time, Lore was even more hesitant. "This kind of thing has to be consulted by the Archangel … However, the Archangel can't be distracted … What should I do … "
At the end of the day, although the rank was high, the position was too small and lacking in bearing.
Dafei sighed inwardly and continued. "How about this, does every candidate who gets an examination certificate get a chance to activate the barrier? I don't want the barrier to activate, I just rush down and hack. That should be fine, right? Actually, it doesn't matter to me and my adjutants. For the sake of justice, we can fight without complaint or regret, but the key is — "
Dafei pointed at Tazius and Bilbo. "The key is Miss Tazius and Brother Bilbo. They aren't my adjutants, and they aren't human, nor are they believers of the Light. We can't let them fight pointless, can we? If they see us make a fool of ourselves and word gets back to their people, then the Church of Light will seem too … That's too much. "
If I can't even persuade him, then I can only work for free to gain reputation without complaint.
Finally, Lore made up her mind. "Warrior, you're right! Tactics on the battlefield are ever-changing, and we need to be flexible. Then as you said, you'll still follow the procedure of the last examination. Destroy a seal and you'll get a spot as a crusader. But you don't have an examination certificate, so there's no barrier. I'll be the examiner and record your results! "
Oh yeah! Success! The so-called experts were the ones who made the impossible possible!
Dafei was overjoyed. "As expected of Miss Lore. Then I'll go make the preparations!"
Now, Dafei went to the cultural advisor, Elrond, and handed him the Nightmare Crystal. "We're about to go to war. Your mission is to draw in the Realm of Nightmare, on that chessboard. Take this Nightmare Crystal with you. It seems to automatically replenish the power of nightmares. Any problems?"
