Lord Game: I Have 100 Million Talents

Chapter 481: Chapter 123: A Newcomer? A Newcomer With His Own Basic Divine Format?

Su Mumu’s eyes went wide. She pointed at a hovercar, her voice filled with disbelief:

"Medieval architecture mixed with hovercars? And you can play Mortal Realm games in an internet cafe?"

Qin Feng raised an eyebrow. His gaze swept over the scenes that blended modern and medieval elements. ’The cultural fusion of the Divine Domain is truly beyond anything the Mortal Realm could imagine,’ he thought.

He could sense that the modern equipment was all engraved with Divine Patterns. They were clearly products modified by the rules of the Divine Realm, not items that could be casually brought back to the Mortal Realm.

This seemingly contradictory clash of styles unexpectedly created Silver Moon City’s unique, fantastical atmosphere.

Just then, as Qin Feng was pondering the principles behind the street-side internet cafe’s network and Su Mumu was still marveling at the strange exhaust pipe of a Hoverbike, the sound of steady footsteps echoed from behind them.

When they turned, they saw a Silver Moon City guard standing a short distance away.

He was clad in silver-white armor, the Moonlight patterns on its plates flowing with his movements. He leaned on a Divine Spear, its tip casting a cold gleam from its Divine Pattern onto the stone slabs. From beneath his helmet, his gaze swept over the two of them, scrutinizing the lingering aura of the Mortal Realm that they hadn’t yet fully concealed.

"Two new Ascenders?"

The Silver Moon City guard’s voice, steady and metallic, came from within his helmet. His gaze paused on the patterns of Qin Feng’s battle armor and the Stone of the Gods Su Mumu hadn’t yet put away, and he quickly made his judgment.

Before they could respond, he raised his spear and pointed toward the tallest Gothic castle at the end of the street. A red crystal embedded in its spire radiated a fiery glow, subtly echoing the name the Silver Moon City guard was about to speak.

"Go to the castle hall immediately and report to Lord Aesira, the Fire God."

He paused, his eyes scanning the crowd moving around them, and his tone softened slightly as he added:

"All Ascenders newly arrived in Silver Moon City must have their first trial mission assigned by the Lord Fire God."

"Additionally, Lord Fire God Aesira will issue you a set of Basic equipment for the Divine Domain. It’s just an entry-level set, barely enough to get by here, but it’s far more Powerful than the items from the Mortal Realm you’re carrying."

As soon as he finished speaking, a metal token on the Silver Moon City guard’s waist suddenly flashed with red light. He glanced at the information on the token, gave the pair a slight nod, and turned to leave. His silver armor traced a cold arc under the glow of the Divine Power street lamps, quickly disappearing into the flow of people weaving between medieval buildings and modern vehicles.

Su Mumu reined in her curiosity and shook the Stone of the Gods in her hand.

"Lord Fire God Aesira?"

"Sounds like a big shot. Let’s hurry over. I want to see what the Divine Realm’s starter gear looks like!"

Qin Feng nodded in agreement. He looked toward the castle radiating its fiery glow, the Basic Divine Format in his palm growing slightly warm. He could faintly sense a profound wave of Divine Power emanating from deep within the castle. It was the aura of a high-tier Deity, far surpassing that of the Silver Moon City guards—like a Tier Four high-level player compared to a group of Tier One rookies just starting the Lord Game.

...

After passing through the Gothic archway engraved with Flame Divine Patterns, the magnificent sight of the castle hall assaulted their senses.

A dome soared high overhead, covered in gilded frescoes depicting Deities battling the Abyss. Giant stone pillars stood along the four walls, entwined with flowing, fiery light patterns. The floor was paved with lava tiles that emitted a warm glow, and a faint fluctuation of Divine Power could be felt with every step.

On a high platform in the center of the hall, a throne forged from Divine Iron and Flame Crystal Stones was particularly eye-catching. Standing beside the throne was the figure of Aesira, the Fire God of Silver Moon City.

She looked to be around thirty years old. An invisible flame seemed to burn around her, and her dazzling red hair was as wild and untamed as a wildfire, with each strand glinting with tiny sparks.

Unlike the delicate beauty of women from the Mortal Realm, her build was upright and brimming with explosive power. Her tight-fitting Flame Pattern Battle Armor outlined sharp, muscular lines, and the bulging biceps on her arms held world-destroying strength. She held a giant axe wreathed in crimson flames, and the ferocious aura she exuded clearly marked her as the same type of close-quarters, aggressive powerhouse as Su Mumu.

"Newcomers?"

Aesira’s voice was like surging lava, carrying a searing, piercing quality. Her gaze swept over Qin Feng and Su Mumu, and she quickly made a decision:

"On the outskirts of the Black Flame Forest beyond the city, an Abyssal Wolf Pack has taken root. We’re short on people to clear them out. You two can team up and handle it."

"The mission rewards are on the notice board. You can go look now, or you can check after you’re done."

"They’re fixed, anyway."

Before her voice faded, she tossed her hand, and two cloth bags glowing with a faint red light flew through the air, landing precisely in front of them.

"These are Silver Moon City’s weapon packs for new Ascenders. Crush them, and a list of equipment will appear. Choose the set that best suits your main Profession."

She paused, her expression suddenly turning serious, and her tone grew heavier.

"Remember, once you’ve chosen, you can’t change it. Make sure you think it through before you decide."

Su Mumu eagerly reached for her weapon pack, but as Aesira’s gaze swept past Qin Feng, it abruptly froze. Her previously casual expression instantly solidified.

Her brow furrowed tightly, and the fiery light patterns around her body stirred restlessly. She spoke in a low voice tinged with disbelief:

"A Basic Divine Format?"

She took a step forward, her blazing gaze landing on Qin Feng as if it had physical weight. She carefully studied the faint golden Divine Radiance swirling around him, her tone full of confusion.

"Aren’t you a new Ascender? How could you possess a Divine Format?"

She pondered for a moment, then shook her head.

"Or are you an Ascender who came to Silver Moon City specifically to guide newcomers? I’ve been stationed in Silver Moon City for so long, and I’ve never seen you before. So you’re definitely not an Ascender from Silver Moon City."

The Flame Divine Patterns inside the castle hall seemed to flicker more intensely in response to her confusion. The warm golden light stretched their three shadows long. The aura of the Divine Format around Qin Feng clashed with Aesira’s Flame Divine Power, filling the air with an invisible tension.

Qin Feng slowly shook his head, a wisp of Divine Fire flickering on his fingertip with the movement. His voice was calm but held an undeniable certainty.

"No."

"I am a newcomer."

He gestured to Su Mumu, who was still fiddling with her weapon pack, and added:

"Just like her, I just ascended from the Mortal Realm today. We’re completely clueless about the Divine Domain and need your guidance."

Fire God Aesira: "..."

The air instantly fell into a brief silence. Even the flickering Flame Divine Patterns in the hall seemed to slow their rhythm.

She stared blankly at Qin Feng, her flame-lit eyes filled with disbelief. Her hand clutching the giant axe tightened unconsciously, and the flames on its blade shot up half a foot.

’Interesting.’

’A newcomer who just ascended.’

’And he came with a Basic Divine Format?’

At that moment, a storm raged in Aesira’s heart, and her gaze grew heavier.

One had to understand that even the top-tier Lords who had stirred up storms in the Mortal Realm ascended with, at most, their full combat power and potential. The Divine Format had always been a threshold one could only touch after entering the Divine Realm, enduring countless trials, and gathering immense faith.

’This guy... What on earth did he do in the Mortal Realm?’

Aesira sized Qin Feng up again. Her gaze swept from the faint golden Divine Radiance swirling around him to the inscriptions on his Lion Battle Armor, which emanated an aura of command. A bold guess began to form in her mind.

’Could it be?’

’Did this guy completely subjugate the entire Mortal Plane he came from?’

’Did he make all the mortal beings there into his source of faith, allowing him to condense this precious Basic Divine Format before he even successfully ascended?’

The more she thought about it, the more Aesira felt it was the only possibility. She had seen countless Ascenders, yet not a single one had ever broken through such a barrier of rules. This newcomer’s history in the Mortal Realm was likely far more shocking than she could ever imagine.

The fiery light patterns around her gradually calmed. As Fire God Aesira looked at Qin Feng, her gaze now held a new level of solemnity and inquiry.

This was no ordinary newcomer. This was a "Conqueror" who had ascended with the foundation of an entire Mortal Realm behind him.

"It seems... Silver Moon City has gained someone extraordinary..."
