"Hey, Old Alexandre, it's lunchtime now," Upon hearing the butler's words, the fat Bigail said in dissatisfaction before his master could even open his mouth.
When the guest was talking too much, the master of the mansion looked at the Wizard Li God in the living room condescendingly on the stairs. His calm face suddenly turned pale.
After a long silence with his stiff body, he said in a hoarse and dry voice, "Alexandre, it's already noon. Bring Bigail and the rest to the dining room for lunch.
Mosha, entertain the guest on behalf of me.
Mr. Zhang Lisheng, do you want to see your destiny? Please come with me. "
"Saganso, it's already noon now, so you don't have to …" Bigail took out his pocket watch and looked at it before turning his head to say again. However, he was choked by his old friend's grave expression that he had never seen before.
The strange expression of the master also made the atmosphere in the entire room inexplicably become a little subtle. A young and cute tall girl, who was drinking tea and chatting, stood up and looked at Saganso with a worried expression as she asked, "Dad, what's wrong with you? Did something bad happen?"
"Nothing, my lovely little angel," Saganso looked back at the girl and forced a faint smile on his stiff face. "I'm just going to help the guest look at the astrology. Go eat, I'll go to the dining room later." After that, he cast a pleading look at the Wizard Li God and pointed upstairs. "Mr. Zhang Lisheng, please go upstairs. I'm used to doing astrology for others in the study room on the second floor."
"I'm not a tough person. In fact, if we're friends, I respect other people's habits very much. Take me to your study room, Mr. Saganso. Let's predict your and my future destiny …" Zhang Lisheng calmed his surging divine power and said meaningfully while following his master up to the second floor of the mansion.
After turning a corner in the corridor that wasn't long, the two of them entered a spacious study room. The walls on the left and right were lined with bookshelves of different thicknesses, and the ceiling was actually a sparkling and translucent crystal.
When Saganso gently closed the door, Zhang Lisheng unconsciously raised his head to look at the sunlight that penetrated through the dusty sky and said, "Oh, Saganso, no, it should be Sir Tandari. Looks like other than loving your adopted daughter very much, you also really like stargazing. Otherwise, you wouldn't have spent a huge sum of money to polish a large piece of crystal in this dirty city to make the ceiling of your study room.
I just don't know why you didn't divine that I would visit you today? "
"Your Majesty, Mosha is just a young girl who doesn't know anything. If you have any anger, please don't implicate her." Tandari unknowingly confessed his identity and respectfully begged, "As for divining my own fate, even a god as powerful as you can't completely control his own future, let alone a lowly demigod like me."
"Oh, there's also such a legend in my hometown. In slang, it's' a fortune-teller can't divine his own fate '." The young man nodded and sat on the sofa close to the desk in the study room as though there was no one else present. Looking at Tandari, he asked tentatively, "Didn't the powerful existence standing behind you give you any warning recently?"
"Your Majesty, there's no 'existence' standing behind me." Tandari was stunned for a moment before replying.
"Tandari, Tandari, Tandari!" Zhang Lisheng immediately put away the smile on his face. "Deceiving a powerful god in the land of faith won't do you any good.
I came with both good and evil intentions, so don't use lies to extinguish the kindness in my heart! "At once, a thick mist of water began to spread in the entire study room, wrapping around the legendary alchemist.
Facing the water vapor full of divine power that condensed into a sawtooth-like stream that rubbed against his skin and slowly flowed around his head and neck, Tandari's body stiffened as he hurriedly swore, "Your Majesty, I swear on the grave of my parents that what I said is true, and I've never concealed anything at all."
"You've never concealed anything …" When Zhang Lisheng saw that his prey did not seem to be lying, he asked in confusion, "In that case, how did a small demigod like you master two completely different divine powers of controlling the atmosphere and fate divination? How did you manage to create the terrifying 'artillery infantry phalanx' for Dignity King and even live in seclusion to predict the fate of others?"
Before asking this question, the Wizard Li god had already decided that if Tandari continued to deny it, he would immediately subdue him and interrogate him through torture. However, to his surprise, the answer given by the alchemist master was completely beyond his expectations. "Your Majesty, I have indeed mastered two kinds of divine powers, and one of them is indeed the 'wind' that symbolizes the control of airflow.
However, the other one is not fate divination but the violent flame power instead … "
"Flame power …" Upon hearing this answer, the image of the Atlanteans holding the light stone and being surrounded by flames flashed across the young man's mind right away. Losing his voice, he exclaimed, "You have the divine power of controlling flames? Tell me your secret right now! Now!"
"Your Majesty, I can say that I can control the wind element, but it's a little difficult for me to control the fire element." Tandari smiled wryly and continued to talk, "My first teacher in alchemy, Mr. Condoni, is a senior alchemist who specializes in the wind element alchemy formation. For this reason, from the moment I became an alchemy apprentice at the age of 12, I've already come into contact with the wind element's alchemy formation.
Sealing the lively 'wind' into the boots to make the warriors' footsteps more brisk.
Integrating the violent 'wind' into the weapons so that the knights have a short spellcasting power … "
"Alright, Sir Tandari, now is not the time for you to reminisce about the past. Get to the point," Zhang Lisheng said impatiently. Zhang Lisheng said impatiently. This matter involved the divine power of controlling flames, causing him to lose his composure right away.
Tandari, who was urged, was stunned for a moment. His palms trembled slightly as he pinched his brows. For some reason, a hint of sorrow and determination flashed across his face as he said in a slightly lowered voice, "Alright, Your Majesty, I'll get to the point.
I've never been a smart person, but I know how to think better than all of my peers who only know how to study formations and refining in a rigid way. Not long after I became an official alchemist, I found out that the source of all airflow surges comes from the change in temperature. In other words, there's an extremely close connection between the wind element and the fire element.
From then on, other than the wind element's formation, I also began to study the fire element's alchemy formation. In just a blink of an eye, several decades have passed. When I, who was not very talented, relied on my unremitting research for more than ten hours every day to become a great alchemist step by step, I inadvertently discovered a formation that could fuse the wind element and the fire element together in a wrong experiment.
I'll never forget that day when I was … Sorry, Your Majesty.
I forgot that you're not interested in my past. In short, relying on that wind and fire fusion formation, I first broke through to the Legendary Rank and understood the essence of the wind element and the fire element. Then, I inexplicably ignited the divine fire and became a demigod, mastering the ability to manipulate the wind element. However, I don't know why I can only affect the fire element.
Originally, becoming a demigod is a great news for anyone, but I'm not a great hero who is revered by hundreds of millions of people, but an alchemist who is known to be stingy.
Unless there's a way to transcend the mortal world without relying on the admiration and belief of the world, I can't rely on the power of worship to break away from the shackles of mortals and embark on the road to becoming a god. Such a method of becoming a god will inevitably attract the covetous eyes of all the powerful monarchs and Legendary Rank powerhouses in the Gaia World.
A demigod is indeed powerful, but it's impossible for me to become an enemy of the entire world. No one will believe that I've ignited the divine fire inexplicably … "
"Not relying on faith to embark on the road to becoming a god? Looks like your ancestor is not simple either, Tandari …" Zhang Lisheng pondered for a while and a strange expression appeared on his face. Unconsciously, he asked, "In order to keep this secret, you created the identity of Saganso more than 30 years ago, right?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. For the sake of insurance, I didn't announce the news that I've become a demigod. Not only that, but I've also changed my appearance and temperament to forge the identity of a geologist in Lange City.
Just for the sake of this retreat, I've spent at least three months of precious time in this dirty city every year, but I didn't expect you to see through it so easily. "
"It's just a coincidence that I could see through your identity, Tandari. To be honest, you shouldn't have fired all your assistants after changing your living habits and only increased the wages of the craftsmen in the workshop every ten years, allowing your old employees to write their complaints about your lazy life in their diary.
However, these are not important now. Continue with your story, shall we? "
"Alright, Your Majesty. After becoming a demigod, I continued to study alchemy formation, but after a few years, I found that my ability had not improved at all. For this reason, I began to try to walk the long road of the ancient demigods who had successfully transformed into gods in history, collecting faith.
At that time, Yassen's Dignity King had just ascended the throne and was about to expand his armaments on a large scale. I took the opportunity to recommend myself as his palace consultant and slowly built a powerful alchemy army for him, establishing my heroic image in the hearts of the people.
With the arrival of the victories, my name spread throughout the whole of Yassen as I wished, and I was more and more respected by the people. My ability also slowly improved along with the increase of my reputation, especially in the last three to five years, I suddenly showed signs of breaking through the demigod shackles and magically created such a strong army like the artillery infantry squad … "
"In the last three to five years, there's suddenly a call to become a god," Zhang Lisheng once again interrupted the increasingly excited and high-pitched narration of the demigod alchemist. "Do you feel that your divine power has suddenly grown by leaps and bounds?"
"That's right! It's like lifting a boulder from a narrow well wall and climbing out. In just a blink of an eye, I've seen blue water and blue sky!" Tandari described with great nostalgia. Then, his face suddenly became distorted as he looked at Zhang Lisheng in hatred and roared incoherently, "Originally, I could have become a real god in just a few decades or even more than ten years.
But you, you've forcibly occupied the faith of everyone on the mainland and want to conquer the entire Gaia World with your theocracy, crushing the path of all mortals to become gods and taking away the opportunity of all sleeping gods to revive. Not only that, but you even plan to kill me now and seize my divinity … Y-You think that you're really the master of this world?
You, do you really think that you're the ruler of this world? No, no, no … "
