Silver City.
The circular spire where the council of six is located.
Chael's figure emerged from the light, her golden hair gleaming and sacred.
"You can call me Alaya."
He looked at the elders of Silver City and said.
"Lord Alaya."
After the former chief went back to lie dormant, Colin Iliad was still in charge of Silver City.
This over-100-year-old, shrewd leader is now completely convinced.
Silver City cannot refuse the sun; it is destined. Looking up at the sky, no thought of refusal arises.
Even a Sequence 4 Witcher, a demigod, doesn't actually have the ability to fly and touch the "sun".
"I want the cane of life."
"That's what Xia Er said very directly."
"Please wait a moment."
Chief Colin was surprised, but he didn't hesitate at all. He was actually a little disappointed that the Divine Envoy didn't want those two level 0 sealed items.
Let's go together.
"I'd also like to see the two level 0 sealed artifacts from Silver City."
"Sair spoke up."
Find a level 1 sealing artifact to strengthen the Fool; any sealing artifact from someone else will do.
However, he was somewhat interested in studying the two level 0 sealed artifacts, especially... the Gift of the Earth.
"plz follow me."
Chief Colin nodded. He wasn't afraid of anything. A boss who said what he wanted directly was more reassuring. Based on their initial impression, even if this person took the two level 0 sealed artifacts from Silver City, he would still provide some compensation.
The favor of angels or even gods is far more important than two level 0 sealed artifacts.
This is the value of "turning on the lights" first; by following the right path, nothing is off-limits.
underground.
Inside the secret chamber in Silver City where sealed artifacts were stored, Xia Er glanced at the Staff of Life in his hand. It possessed a considerable number of extraordinary abilities: it could command supernatural beings with low intelligence, temporarily reduce their madness, perform life-forging, create magical puppets, and even create ordinary humans that could exist for a long time. It could also heal injuries, accelerate loss of control, and imbue the land with life.
Mr. Fool has enough to carry around as a deity across the North and South continents. It's much more practical than the seals from the Storm Path, so he won't be unable to save dying believers.
He casually tossed it away, and the staff vanished instantly. When the Fool opened the gate of sacrifice, he was naturally able to receive it.
Spatial abilities?!
Chief Colin was even more delighted. He introduced the other Level 1 Sealed Artifacts to Xia Er, who only glanced at them briefly. It wasn't until he saw the Level 0 Sealed Artifact, the Proof of Glory, that Xia Er became more serious.
This is a crown formed from the extraordinary characteristics of the Twilight Path Sequence 2. It was once worn by the Giant King Ormir. Leaving aside its function for now, its design is extremely gorgeous. The whole thing seems to be cast from pure gold, inlaid with pure gemstones, surrounded by a mysterious halo, making it look very luxurious.
"This is the crown that the Giant King once wore."
Chief Colin explained.
Xia Er nodded, extending his spirituality. Pure and dense light emanated from the surrounding void, and the underground prison of Silver City seemed to turn into solidified amber. A translucent insect with only twelve rings was sifted out by the glorious and sacred radiance.
"If I remember correctly, we're even."
These tiny insects could barely move, but if one activated their spiritual vision, one could vaguely see the phantom of Amon, a blasphemous man with a pointed soft hat, black curly hair, a broad forehead, and always wearing a crystal monocle. If suicide hadn't been contrary to Amon's aesthetics, these Amons would have killed themselves long ago.
"Do you know?"
"I want to compete with your father for the word of the primordial God, and bringing back that mysterious lord is in my best interest."
Xia Er revealed a thought that had always been hidden in his heart: not to support anyone to become a mystery, not to help Klein, Mr. Men, Amon, and An Banyu get to that point, but to truly revive the Lord of Mysteries and bring back the Heavenly Venerable Fusheng Xuanhuang.
The Heavenly Venerable is not to be believed, but can still be understood through reason.
If the Celestial Venerable returns first, then it will be difficult for God to return.
"Haven't you done this before?"
These Amons all wore rather embarrassed expressions, and then disintegrated one by one in the glow of dusk, leaving behind only a Time Worm, a valuable spiritual material.
I'll release the Heavenly Venerable? Really?
Even Xia Er was stunned for a moment, but Amon liked to lie, and his stories were mostly true with only one element of falsehood, so he was not trustworthy at all.
Listening to Amon will only lead to internal conflict; just ignore it.
"Lord Alaya, what was that just now?"
Chief Colin, who was standing to the side, had not heard the conversation between the two.
"An avatar of a thief foresaw that the changes were related to Silver City and waited here early on. There was no harm in it." Xia'er played with the few Time Worms in her hand, pondering what price to sell them to Mr. Fool, or perhaps grind them up, soak them in water, and feed them to Hazel.
Did it foretell the change? Did it foretell the appearance of the sun?
Colin's pupils contracted, realizing that this thief was no ordinary person. However, since the divine messenger had said there was no harm, he could only keep this matter in mind. The two walked towards the last level 0 sealed artifact, the Earth's Gift.
This time, Chief Colin didn't need to explain; Xia Er simply waved his hand to interrupt.
He knew very well the origin of this sealed artifact: it was formed from the remains of the giant queen Omibella after her death. It didn't possess any extraordinary properties, but it might contain a blessing.
Shael actually wanted to feed this sealed artifact, which looked a bit like a tree stump, to Lilith.
But that guy might not eat it, and the two sides might not be able to trust each other so much, after all, Lilith had been stabbed once before.
"The only food in Silver City, the Black-faced Grass, must come from the power of this sealed artifact, right?"
"If you eat this food and die within the area of the seal's effect, you will become an evil spirit unless a close relative executes you."
Looking at this level 0 sealed artifact, Xia'er thought, "This 'divine artifact' can transform even the abyss into a sanctuary suitable for human life. Yet, in the land forsaken by the gods, it can't even purify the surrounding land. World wars really do favor Europe. Even if it takes an entire era, it will still shatter the land of old Europe."
"Yes, this is the biggest secret of our Silver City."
"The curse that causes us so much suffering comes from our most important food."
Chief Colin closed his eyes, his mind flashing back to his son, daughter-in-law, grandson, and granddaughter whom he had personally executed. This resolute warrior suddenly felt somewhat weary. The bright sunshine outside was beautiful, but many people could no longer see it.
May the departed rest in peace.
This is not a joke; he has the authority to do so.
"grateful...""
Chief Colin opened his eyes upon hearing this, and was about to thank Xia Er when he saw Xia Er place her hand on the Earth's bounty. The words stuck in his throat: "You can't touch it directly, or you'll get pregnant."
