The southwestern region of the Baruch Empire. In the valley between the mountain chains.
This is an important base for the Dawson Conglomerate. In the past, there had been many people stationed here, but ever since Linley had killed the Grand Warlock, Yale naturally stopped the practice of sending slaves to this location, and thus the number of people stationed here was also lowered. Currently, there were only a few thousand people present, most of whom were responsible for trading activities.
The night has come down.
The Dawson Conglomerate employees who work here now have a much easier life. At night, many men gather for a drink away at night, with them only faltering at home in small groups of two and three.
“Over the past year, life has become much better. "A muscular young man, smelling of wine, said loudly. “A few years ago, in the valley of Mt. Swallow, every day like hell. Condemn…"
"really. At that time, I did not even dare to go out at night. Too many people died. I don't even know how many bodies I have to dispose of. "A middle-aged man with curly golden hair, recalling past affairs, couldn't help but sigh in astonishment.
In those days, more than ten thousand corpses had to be sent out every day.
The employees who lived and worked in the Dawson Conglomerate branch in this valley always felt as if they were at a psychological point.
The three men, walking shoulder to shoulder, suddenly realized their astonishment that they could no longer move. The space around them seemed to have solidified, causing them to be unable to move at all. They were so frightened that they wanted to open their mouths, but they could not. The three of them stared with round eyes, terrified.
From within the darkness a human figure wrapped in a black robe appeared in front of them.
Looking at this mysterious black-robed man, the three of them felt their hearts tremble. They somewhat understood .. that the reason they could not move and could not even open their mouths was the result of this mysterious black man's actions.
"How long has this canyon stopped trading slaves?" The black-robed man's low voice sounded. "Speak, but don't yell too loudly. No one will be able to hear you. Besides, if someone yells out loud and irritates me, I'll kill him. ”
He swept the three men with his cold and dark gaze. The foreheads and backs of the three men were completely drenched in sweat. To their surprise, they found that their mouths could move again.
“Speak. "The mysterious black-robed man said.
“Half years ago. "The "gold-haired middle-aged man was somewhat more mentally disciplined. The other two were afraid of running out of words.
“Half years ago. Half a year ago, did something happen? Like fighting? "The black-robed man asked.
“Yes, there is a big battle. "The muscular young man came to his senses as well. He hastily said, “Half a year ago, late at night, two Saints fought, causing the land of our entire valley to shake, and even many buildings to be damaged. ”
"Land shaking?"
The mysterious black-robed man seemed to be thinking of something. "Continue. Explain what happened that night in detail to me. ”
The youngster with short, inch-long hair added, “We are all present. At first, we didn't see a battle, it was just that the ground was shaking, followed by buildings exploding. We were so scared that we ran outside, and it was at that moment that we discovered that in the air above the valley, two experts were struggling. One was a Dragonblood Warrior, while the other was a black-robed person. Oh right he's holding a black scythe. The scythe was extremely large, at least ten meters tall. ”
"really. It was very long, and then we saw it turn into nine of those black scythe. "The muscular young man added.
They did not know that the scythes were created from the Grand Warlock's spiritual energy, because at that moment, it was dark. Even though there was a torch on the ground, they could only barely see the sight. However, they clearly saw a huge black scythe formed from spiritual energy.
"Saturday?" The mysterious black-robed man fell silent for a while.
"And the results?" The mysterious black man continued.
“Battle happens too fast. We only saw that the black-robed man turned into a pile of minced meat, and then the Dragonblood Warrior fell to the ground. It was the Dragonblood Warrior who won. Our God Chief then ordered us to return to our house, and then the God Chief stayed with the Dragonblood Warrior for a very long time. "Muscled young man stuttered.
The mysterious black-robed man immediately asked, "That Dragonblood Warrior, is his name Linley?"
"really. It should be Lord Linley. Lord Linley is on good terms with our Lord Chief. "The golden-haired middle-aged man said.
"Very good . "The mysterious black-robed man nodded in satisfaction. “I'm very satisfied with your answer. ”
The three men breathed a sigh of relief.
"Crackle ..." Very soft voice. The bodies of the three men instantly shattered into three piles of dust.
“He's really dead. "The mysterious "black-robed man was furious. "He's really dead, and before he finishes refining the Golden Soul Pearl, he promised me. "The black-robed man was Beaumont, whom Grand Warlock had promised to help fuse the Golden Soul Pearl.
"Linley?"
Beaumont's eyes are cold. “I did not expect that in such a short period of time, he could become a God, and that he even managed to survive in the face of the ultimate attack of the Grand Warlock. ”
Beaumont knew very well that the Grand Warlock's ultimate attack was a self-destructive attack that would crush the opponent. For an expert who had just reached the level of a God to be able to withstand it caused Beaumont to feel shocked.
“Indeed, he lives up to his reputation as the ultimate genius in the Yulan continent. ”Beaumont's heart is actually filled with hatred. The Golden Soul-Pearl was very important to him. The benefits of absorbing one were too great. Not only would one's soul be strengthened, one's future level of improvement in training would also be accelerated.
"Hrmphs. Linley ”
Beaumont muttered Linley's name, then with a cold laugh, disappeared into a black ray of light, disappearing into the horizon.
The Yulan calendar, 10040. 29 December. The night before, there was a great snowstorm. By dawn, it was snowing, and the entire Dragonblood Castle was now turned into a world of snow. Under the sunlight, the snow that accumulated was as bright as a gemstone. Even Delia temporarily stopped her training.
After all, the Yulan Festival is about to arrive. Everyone will be together for the next few days.
Outside of Dragonblood Castle.
A middle-aged man with a neat short silver hair head, wearing a thick white robe, walked through the snow to stand in front of Dragonblood Castle. The face of this middle-aged man had a slight smile on it, but his eyes looked like black jade.
"Stop, people. "The guards of Dragonblood Castle immediately called out.
The faces of the two guards outside of Dragonblood Castle changed. In the Baruch Empire, the name 'Linley' was inviolable, like the name of a god. Even if someone called him by name, they would still respectfully call him 'Master Linley'. There were very few people who dared to call Linley by his name directly.
The two guards were just about to shout, but suddenly …
"Let him in. "Linley's voice sounded in the minds of these two guards.
The two guards were surprised. Linley had actually spoken mentally to them for the sake of this person.
"Please enter . ”Although confused, the two guards still let this guy in.
Within the back flower garden, Linley and Delia were currently sitting together, enjoying the snowy scenery and sunlight.
“Delia, soon, important guests will come. "Linley smiled as she looked at Delia. Delia was surprised. “An important guest? Wh who? How do you know?"
"The guest directly used heavenly sense to contact me. "Linley shook her head while laughing.
"Are you saying that he is a God?" Hearing the words 'heavenly sense', Delia immediately understood. He looked very surprised. "Linley, which god? The God of War and the others are still in the Necropolis of the Gods, right? They won't be back for another three years. ”
"You'll find out soon enough. ”
Right now, Linley was in a good mood. “I did not expect that he would politely ask the guards outside to send a message. Really funny. ”
In general, the likes of Desri and Tulily would fly straight to Dragonblood Castle. If the Gods wanted to meet with Linley, they could directly fly in. There was no need to urge the gatekeeper to make a report.
Soon after, the God walked into the flower garden behind.
"Mr . Linley, greetings. "The silver-haired middle-aged man said with a smile. “My name is Muba. ”
"Mr . Muba, I've heard your name first. "Linley speaks. The mysterious god of religion was named 'Muba'. Previously, when he had just arrived at the gate to Dragonblood Castle, Muba immediately greeted Linley with heavenly sense.
Although Linley was surprised, he still welcomed the man.
After all, this person came in a very polite manner.
Hearing Linley say this, Muba understood that this religious establishment might already be known to Linley. He started laughing too. "I'm really sorry. Without your permission, Mr. Linley, I started spreading the religion in your Empire. ”
Towards this, Linley did not openly state whether he was angry or not.
"Mr . Muba, please sit down. "Linley pointed to the nearest stone bench.
Laughing cheerfully, Muba sat down. Muba's face was always bright and smiling. Even his gaze made one think of the nourishing spring breeze. This kind of person was truly a person who would be considered an enemy.
"Maybe I ask what is the purpose of this visit, sir. The muba? "Linley was the first to speak.
Muba laughed, “Actually, the first reason I came was to apologize. Before this, I knew you, Sir. Linley, was a Saint. As I see it, you shouldn't care too much about the energy of faith. At that time, when I founded my religion, it didn't really affect you much, Mr. Linley But now you have become a God, Master. Linley, I feel a bit embarrassed. ”
Linley and Delia were both very surprised.
He came to apologize, just for that?
Could it be that the God was so polite and pleasant?
"Mr . Muba, since you explained it politely, of course I won't be upset by it. "Said Linley while laughing calmly.
Muba quickly continued, “Master. Linley, don't worry. In a short time, I will solve this proselytizing problem. At least, within your Baruch Empire, you will not find my religion anymore. ”Muba's attitude is very sincere.
Linley actually did not know what to say.
"Mr . Linley, I imagine that since you have just reached the level of a God, there are some things that you do not know yet. I'll tell you some general facts as a form of apology. "Said Muba sincerely.
Given how he acted, Linley found it hard to hold a grudge against this Muba.
Merely, in his heart, Linley still felt confused .. This Muba might be a bit too polite. Linley had just reached the level of a God. There was no need for Muba to act in such a way.
“It is true that I have just reached the level of Gods. I'm pleased to receive some advice from you, Sir. Muban. "Say Linley.
Muba nodded slightly. “After reaching the level of Gods, we can all be considered gods, now. For us, the heavenly spark and our souls are very important. The heavenly spark is very powerful, but the soul is very weak .. I imagine you, Linley, also feel the benefits of faith energy right now. ”
Linley nodded slightly.
Once he became a God, Linley had absorbed a bit of faith energy. At that moment, Linley did not feel much, but after the past half a year, Linley could clearly feel that the energy of faith was slowly merging with his own spiritual energy, he said, while at the same time forming a protective layer around his soul. But of course, to Linley, it seemed that this protective layer was extremely weak.
“The energy of faith is very beneficial for the growth of the soul. At the same time, it would also protect the soul. When the energy of faith reaches a very strong level, the protection of the energy of faith alone will be able to block many soul attacks. "Tell me a breath.
Linley nodded slightly.
After all, he had only absorbed the energy of faith for half a year. People like the God of War, who had absorbed five thousand years of faith energy, would have a much denser and deeper reserve of faith energy than himself. People like the Sovereign, who absorbed the energy of faith from countless planes, had been doing so for trillions of years.
The amount of faith energy they had was definitely at an astonishing level.
“The energy of faith is very beneficial to us. You understand this too. Next, I will explain some important general facts about heavenly artifacts. This will be very important for your training in the future. "Muba did not try to hide anything. 'This 'general knowledge', however, for many experts who had just become Gods, was a knowledge that they would only gain after having had a few accidents.
