Within the inheritance stone chamber.
The torches burned fiercely, illuminating the faces of the five ancient kings. Their eyes were quietly watching the young man in the middle.
He was wearing a crown inlaid with a huge diamond, and the expression on his face was rich and varied. Some were obsessed, some were angry, some were fearful, and some were happy. Only his eyes were always calm, filled with a kind of tranquility that transcended all worldly things.
After a long time, a low sigh sounded in the stone chamber. "The Power of the People?!"
In the short inheritance test, Wu Ming seemed to have experienced the life of the Conqueror King, Thale, and learned more things.
The most important seed of power, the Power of the People, had been perfectly inherited by him and analyzed as his own power.
"My initial guess was slightly off. Although this Power of the People can be said to be a type of faith, it is not pure faith. The path to godhood is similar to fate …"
Wu Ming murmured.
The so-called Power of the People was the power that only the king who ruled over the people could obtain.
As the king conquered piece after piece of land, swallowing more and more people and merging them together with his own rules, the admiration of his people, the fear of his enemies, and even the fate of the unseen would all be turned into the most direct power. It could be used on himself to increase the upper limit of his ability, or it could be used on external objects to form spells or supernatural items.
"It sounds similar to fate. Is it a method to quickly transform fate into strength?"
Wu Ming touched his chin.
In the Immortal Martial Universe, there were such methods, but they could only be used on specific paths.
However, the Power of the People and the Power of the King were different. As long as the king accumulated enough, even his physical strength could be increased, and he could even break through the limit of his lifespan!
This was similar to the path to godhood through faith, but it was not the same.
Simply put, the mind could change the material, and the consciousness could affect reality! Even in Wu Ming's eyes, this was a rather impressive ability.
"All in all, as long as the area of rule is larger, the power obtained will be stronger. It's simply a system tailor-made for a king …"
Wu Ming's eyes were filled with excitement.
He took off the blue diamond crown and nodded in satisfaction. "My efforts were not in vain. You did not disappoint me …"
"And … the giant snake …"
Wu Ming retrieved all of Thale the First's memories.
This legacy was almost a clash with the Conquest King's will and spirit. In the world of consciousness, he had almost experienced the Conquest King's entire life. If he were to suffer from schizophrenia, there might really be a Thale's second personality that would surface, and that would become the Conquest King's reincarnation in another form.
Of course, what the Conquest King had left behind was pure memories. It was a huge mental asset, something that Wu Ming valued even more.
"The theory of the giant serpent destroying the world was put forward by the uncrowned king of the five ancient kings, the creator of University City — the Great Sage …"
"He was a knowledgeable and extremely knowledgeable scholar. He had already explored the origin of the world and the moment of its end! The Great Sage prophesied that in the distant future, the entire world would usher in a huge revolution. That would be the intersection of light and darkness, and even the legendary creator would be awakened … This is a sign of the arrival of disaster. "
To the Creator and the God of Creation, their every move and every word would bring great changes to the world they created.
Even if it turned over from its slumber, the entire Seer World might welcome a natural disaster.
Hence, the awakening of the giant serpent was definitely a disaster.
With the help and assistance of University City, the five ancient kings had all sworn an oath to prevent the awakening of the giant serpent from destroying the world.
"A bunch of ants wants to fight against a giant dragon?"
This was Wu Ming's first comment upon seeing this.
How could mere mortals fathom the power and authority of a God of Creation?
The Great Sage prophesied that once the giant serpent awoke, it would bring about a calamity that would destroy the world. However, he had shown himself several times in the Golden Court Grotto-Heaven, and there were no hidden dangers.
Unless the entire Seer Continent was built on the giant serpent's body, how could it turn over and destroy the entire world?
"It's just groundless fears …"
Wu Ming played with the blue diamond crown casually as he walked out of the secret chamber.
"Master?"
Beatrice and the rest looked anxious, but when they saw Wu Ming come out, they all heaved a long sigh of relief. "It's good that Master is fine … Marlett just sent news that a group of suspicious people has arrived in the valley outside, but they don't seem to have any ill intentions."
"They actually found their way here?"
Wu Ming was slightly surprised. "I'll go out and take a look!"
"This is … the Deep Blue Heart?"
It was only then that Jack noticed the crown in Wu Ming's hands. The dazzling blue diamond caused his eyes to widen. "This is the crown of the Conqueror King, Thale the First!"
"It definitely is. Such a beautiful blue diamond, you won't be able to find a second one in the entire continent!"
Carlitan's eyes lit up, making Wu Ming feel like he was looking at the legendary greedy giant dragon. Most of the time, women and giant dragons' love for shiny objects could be compared.
"It's real, but it's just a crown …"
Wu Ming did not mind and threw it to Beatrice. "Keep it well!"
"Yes … yes! My Master … "
Beatrice's voice was trembling, and Ava, who was beside her, was already dumbfounded.
"This is not as simple as a crown, it's the proof of a king!"
Carlitan knelt on one knee. "When Thale died, the blue diamond crown mysteriously disappeared, and a prophecy arose. The person who obtained the Conqueror's Crown would definitely conquer the entire Windy Firefly Plains and dominate the entire Seer Continent!"
Her eyes were fanatical. "My Master, you are the child of the prophecy! The future king! "
"Hmm?"
Wu Ming did not think much of it at first, but when he saw Ava kneel down as well and Jack's expression of approval, he suddenly understood.
Although the Blue Diamond Crown had become an inanimate object after the inheritance, the significance it represented far exceeded his imagination. It was comparable to the Imperial Jade Seal from his previous life.
"What happened today is a secret! You can't say a word, understand? "
His expression was solemn as he spoke in a solemn voice.
"We understand!"
The few of them answered loudly. Even Marlett did not dare to be slow.
After seeing Beatrice wrap up the crown and put it in her bag, Wu Ming clapped his hands. "Alright, let's go out and see who those patient guests are …"
With the Dragonheart sword hanging from his waist, he walked out of the cave first.
The scorching sun shone down, and the mountain wind howled. In the originally silent valley, there were now more than ten black figures standing there.
Under the sunlight, their armors swayed and shone, and the white robes on their backs were as pure as the clouds in the blue sky.
"The church's honorary knights?"
Wu Ming's expression changed slightly. "The church actually found this place? Is it because their secret network is too big, or is there a traitor on my side?! "
Sometimes, it only took a scene to plant the seed of doubt in the hearts of those in a superior position.
However, he shook his head and immediately threw this trace of doubt out of his mind. After all, the entire team was under his absolute control. Even if there was a traitor, there was not much time to contact the outside world.
"Sir William Wallace!"
The knights on both sides dispersed, revealing the figure of an old man.
He was wearing a linen robe, barefoot, and had a kind smile on his face. "We meet again!"
"I didn't expect to meet you here. May I know what business you have here? Your Grace! "
Wu Ming smiled quite brightly, but his right hand was on the hilt of his sword.
"I'm waiting …"
The archbishop said in a very religious voice, "Waiting for the legendary figure, the Child of Prophecy, to arrive!"
He smiled mysteriously. "Sir, have you already obtained what you want?"
"Do you know what's inside?"
Wu Ming's eyes narrowed slightly.
"There are records in the secret books of the church, but the location has only recently been confirmed to be here!"
The archbishop bowed respectfully to Wu Ming, his voice solemn. "Here, I would like to thank you for killing the Ogre Wizard and saving the entire Wind Firefly Plains. This heroic feat will definitely be remembered by future generations!"
As soon as the archbishop said this, Wu Ming did not feel anything, but behind him, Ava and Marlett's faces were filled with joy.
They had previously risked great danger to kill the Ogre Wizard, not because they wanted to be unknown heroes behind the scenes. It was just that no one had seen them at the time, and it was impossible to spread their heroic deeds, which had always been a deep regret.
Now, with the endorsement of the archbishop, everything was different.
Flowers and glory, as well as great wealth and status, were already things that could be expected.
"Ladies and gentlemen …"
The archbishop looked around and smiled slightly. "If you don't mind, I would like to have a good talk with this Mister William!"
He made a gesture, and the honorable knights bowed slightly before leaving the valley just like that.
"You guys go out too, wait for me outside!"
Since the archbishop dared to do this, there was naturally nothing for Wu Ming to be afraid of, so he directly ordered.
After waiting for Beatrice to reluctantly leave the valley, Wu Ming turned around and stared at the archbishop. "What's the matter? You can say it now!"
He had always felt that the church and the archbishop were mysterious. Although they had a huge network and power, they were quite low-key, especially when they expressed their goodwill to him several times, but did not express much of it, which made him quite puzzled.
Today, it was time to reveal the dagger.
"William Wallace!"
The archbishop's eyes were white as he asked in a holy tone, "You want to be the king of the Wind Firefly Plains? The savior of the entire continent? "
