Chapter 559: Chapter 574: Authority and Domain
The good thing about the Divine Court gatherings is their extremely high level of safety.
In modern terms,
they only hold online gatherings, not offline ones, greatly increasing security.
Moreover, everyone has a pseudonym, adding to peace of mind.
This is also why Baiyu likes the Divine Court.
After a while,
his spirit body appeared in the hall.
Compared to the Divine Court Headquarters, this place was much more humble, after all, it was just a temporary station.
This was his third time entering the Divine Court through the Divine Gate, also known as the Spiritual Light Gate.
In fact,
through these few interactions,
he had basically figured out the general operations of the Divine Court.
It’s very similar to online games from previous lives.
The Divine Court Headquarters is the main server, and they have various subsidiary servers in different locations.
Then, the Spiritual Light Gate imprinted on human bodies by the Divine Court serves as a login account.
Their identities in the Divine Court
are like IDs in a game.
Looking at the operating model of the Divine Court this way, it’s exactly like an online game.
This is what Baiyu deduced over several days and nights.
"Moon Lord, you came at the right time.
Yinzhu has a huge harvest this time.
Snatched a piece of Forbidden Divine Soldier Fragment from the clutches of the Holy Light Church!
Just for this one fragment,
we paid a dire price."
As soon as he entered,
Cloud Monarch said with a smile on his face.
Then Baiyu listened to him describe the battle scene of that night casually.
Even though it was a rough depiction, Baiyu could still feel the danger in it.
This was a battle at the Holy Light Church Headquarters.
Even though the Holy Light Church was restrained by official organizations like the Anomaly Bureau and the Armed Department,
their strength could not be underestimated.
Especially after the Forbidden Divine Weapon shattered, the Holy Light Church would definitely go all out to snatch the fragments.
After all,
according to the operations of the Holy Light Church over the years,
the Forbidden Divine Weapon is their absolute reverse scale, not allowing anyone to touch it.
Hearing Cloud Monarch’s familiar laughter,
paired with the soothing and gentle mask on his face, it was really... a bit punchable.
Baiyu really wanted to tell him
that he also had a Forbidden Divine Soldier Fragment.
But,
it’s just a thought.
"What price did you pay?"
Baiyu asked.
Cloud Monarch chuckled mysteriously and said, "Of course, it was a lot of Spiritual Technique Scrolls and numerous consumable battle items.
However,
a lot of people from the Holy Light Church ran away this time, and they had secretly transferred most of the sealing objects beforehand.
This time, although they suffered heavy losses,
the foundation of the Holy Light Church is still there.
So recently, Moon Lord, you must be careful while in Villiduo."
Baiyu nodded.
It seems that the Anomaly Bureau indeed controlled the Holy Light Church Headquarters.
But as for those high-level church members, they couldn’t possibly get them all.
In fact,
any martial artist who reaches the Grandmaster Level must be highly skilled in escape and life-saving techniques.
Because those who aren’t skilled are already dead.
If they are determined to run, it’s basically unsolvable.
Under Cloud Monarch’s lead, Baiyu quickly arrived at the center of the hall, where several people were gathered.
Besides Cloud Monarch and Yinzhu,
Baiyu did not recognize the others.
But they were all focused on the fragment floating in Yinzhu’s palm.
The Forbidden Divine Soldier Fragment!
This Forbidden Divine Soldier Fragment was about the same size as Baiyu’s, but differently shaped.
As for the aura,
it was identical.
Still that kind of agitation and distracting feeling.
Everyone gathered together,
seemingly studying the function of this Forbidden Divine Weapon.
"It seems this is a Forbidden Divine Weapon from the ’Cup’ domain, the Heart Fire Wolf, and it involves three domains.
Namely, heart, cup, and casting.
Therefore, the ’Heart Fire’ of the Heart Fire Wolf can be used to refine the Forbidden Divine Weapon.
The casting domain has the power to change and recast all things.
Only the Power of Casting is most suitable for refining a Forbidden Divine Weapon.
However,
by logic, it should refine a Divine Weapon from the ’Heart’ domain instead."
Someone raised an objection.
Baiyu perked up his ears, humbly absorbing the knowledge about Divine Weapons.
Heart, cup, casting.
Apparently, these are the domains or authority that Deities possess.
Baiyu could confirm.
The Red Cup is related to the Blood Origin God, whose authority concerns the cup.
As for other deities,
Baiyu didn’t know much.
The Velvet King might also be the Blood Origin God, but the domain authority should relate to secrecy or something similar.
The most frustrating part is,
Baiyu didn’t know what exactly the authorities of the deities were.
After showing off the Forbidden Divine Soldier Fragment they had acquired for a while, Yinzhu pinched it lightly, and the fragment disappeared.
Then she said, "This time, the fragment was divided into seven pieces. The Holy Light Church has two remaining.
The other four pieces were taken by other factions.
We no longer need to stay in Villiduo, missing one piece means the Forbidden Divine Weapon cannot be assembled.
No matter who wants this Forbidden Divine Weapon,
in the end,
they can’t avoid my piece of the fragment."
Everyone around nodded.
There were quite a few people involved in this operation, and there were at least five or six official members from the Divine Court.
Although Yinzhu made the biggest effort for the fragment, it was the result of everyone’s joint efforts.
What Yinzhu said meant that when this Forbidden Divine Weapon is eventually sold, everyone would share the loot.
Of course,
it’s extremely difficult to piece together such a fractured Forbidden Divine Weapon into a real Divine Weapon, and it might not be sold.
The best trading target is still the Holy Light Church.
This is where the fantasy of the Extraordinary World lies.
I took your stuff, turned around, and I can still sell it back to you.
"Yinzhu, actually the factions that seized the Divine Weapon this time weren’t particularly strong. If we go all out, we might snatch other fragments."
At this point,
someone suggested.
Yinzhu shook her head, "This matter is not worth the risk, there’s no need.
The power of the Forbidden Divine Weapon,
is not something ordinary people can control.
Moreover, don’t underestimate the Holy Light Church. Although they appear like a dog beaten out of its home now, their hidden strength is tough to chew."
Hearing her say this, everyone dismissed the thought of continuing to snatch fragments.
After that,
they talked about many matters regarding the Forbidden Divine Weapon.
Baiyu quietly stayed on the side, being an observer, silently absorbing knowledge.
From the content of the Divine Court members’ conversation,
the Forbidden Divine Weapon is different from large war machines like the Legendary Ship.
It’s more like a bottom-trunk item with terrifying destructive power for single-soldier combat. It’s something that can change warfare and significantly boost a faction’s foundation.
Besides,
the Divine Court actually possesses such things too.
Now Baiyu realized just how dangerous the world could be.
If one day someone uses a Forbidden Divine Weapon on him,
he probably wouldn’t even have time to react before being killed.
And the perverseness of this thing,
reminded Baiyu of another treasure.
That was the Holy Sword guarded by Anselin in the Giant King’s Court.
The weapon of the Giant King.
Back then, Baiyu used it to cut down the offspring and projection of the Reversed Egg with a single strike.
