Silver City, top of the Round Tower, Chief Chamber.

Gray-haired and with an old scar on his face, Colin Iliad looked out the window into the deep darkness, until a sharp silver burst out in the distance, bringing light for a few seconds, before he withdrew his gaze and bowed his head softly:

"Schillon was promoted to ......"

His gaze then fell on the boy standing in the middle of the room, barely over two meters old:

"Darek, do you know why, after exploring the 'Court of the Giants' for the first time, I have become the 'Silver Knight' of Sequence 3 and have put my follow-up plan under pressure and not implemented it?"

Darek thought for a moment and said:

"Your Excellency, on the one hand, you want to see if there is any other way to get to the beach, and on the other hand, you are waiting for someone among the other elders of the 'Council of Six' to be promoted to Sequence 3. ”

And now, both of these things are done:

Nearly five months ago, an exploration team in Silver City discovered a hidden path, from where it bypassed the peak where the "Giant King's Court" was located and arrived at the seaside, however, that sea was illusory and could not be passed through at all, and forcibly entering the water would only cause the body to gradually disintegrate;

Now, another demigod of the Council of Six, Waite Hilmon, has finally been promoted to become the "Silver Knight" of Sequence 3, and can have his own honorific name and answer the prayers of the rest of the inhabitants of Silver City within a certain range.

Colin Iliad sighed and said:

"Very good, very clear and comprehensive understanding of things.

"If it weren't for the fact that there was no way, I really didn't want to take you to the 'Giant Court' again and try to open the palace where the 'Dark Angel' was sleeping......"

At this point, Colin the "Demon Hunter" paused before continuing:

"I don't know how dangerous this kind of exploration will bring, I can only prepare well in advance, now, Silmon has finally succeeded, even if there is an accident later, we can't return, he and the rest of the elders can support Silver City, so that everything can continue to be maintained, waiting for the next opportunity. ”

He looked at Deric for a few seconds, nodded in agreement, and said:

"Your growth is better than I expected, if it weren't for the fact that the matter of the 'Giant Court' was caused by you, I really want to keep you in Silver City, in the name of the 'Council of Six' Reserve Elders. ”

Hearing this, Derick Berg replied without hesitation:

"Even if you want to keep me in Silver City, I'm going to apply to go. ”

This is the light he sees, this is an opportunity in his mind to save Silver City, and he is willing to give everything for it.

Colin Iliad smiled a little:

"You are still too young, and when you have experienced a lot of things like me, you will understand that it is more difficult and painful than drawing your sword, sacrificing with blood, enduring humiliation and helplessness, and persevering in the dark.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask Sylmon later, and ask him if he would like to lead the exploration team to the 'Giant Court' or stay in Silver City. ”

Darek fell silent, his mouth open but unable to speak.

Instead of continuing the subject, Colin Iliad asked:

"Have you digested your Priest of Light potion completely?"

"It was thoroughly digested last week. Derick replied calmly.

Colin Iliad nodded and said:

"Have you collected all the supporting materials?"

Darek gave an "um":

"It's all collected, but the ceremony is not ready yet. ”

His ritual requires stripping away the strongest emotions that are most reluctant to give up, and returning them after taking the potion.

After several meetings of the Tarot Society, as well as Miss "Justice's" private attempts, there is now a mature plan:

With the help of this Sequence 4 "Manipulator" mastery of the mind realm, it is completed based on Mr. "Fool's" "Angel Embrace".

"Demon Hunter" Colin did not urge and said calmly:

"Don't worry, the second exploration of the 'Giant Court' will have to wait for a while. ”

"Wait until I become the 'Darkless'?" asked Derick on his own initiative.

Colin Iliad did not deny it, and nodded slightly:

"I'm also waiting for Lovia to become the 'Black Knight', and her materials and rituals are ready. ”

Hearing this, Derick suddenly felt pressured.

............

Byam, the capital of the Rorsted Islands and the "City of Generosity", at the top of the bell tower attached to the Church of the Waves.

Cardinal of the Church of the Storm, Senior Deacon of the "Punishers", "Aquaman" Ione "Aquaman" stood behind the railing, looking out at the less blue sea and the flaming wreckage floating on it.

"Hmph, in my territorial waters, even the 'War Bishop' has to lower his head......" The demigod with a muscular body and a hard and deep face whispered as he withdrew his gaze.

With dark blue hair as thick as a bug and dark blue eyes, he controls the weather and the sea around the Rorsted Islands.

Standing next to Aquaman, Alger Wilson showed no irritation and waited patiently for Ion Courtman to turn his attention to himself.

- In addition to most of the extraordinary people in the "Sailor" path, they are more irritable, and they often tremble and obey when faced with the high-ranking people in the same path, which comes from the characteristics of "tyrants".

After whispering, Aquaman Ion Courtman finally set his eyes on Alger, who was leading a fleet of "pirates", and said expressionlessly:

"This time it was a good one, the Council of Cardinals passed the review of you and decided to let me preside over your promotion. ”

After receiving the relics of the "Queen of the Scourge" Gosinham, Alger took an opportunity to report the matter to Aquaman.

He started from going to the primeval forest of Sunia Island to explore the elven ruins, and explained what happened to him as it was, only revising two details:

The first is to say that they took the initiative to go to the elven ruins as a force to ambush the Fusaks, and deliberately looked for a suitable place, which was confirmed by many sailors who were present at the time;

The second is to dilute the autonomy of action after that, only to say that the night of exploring the elf ruins, I dreamed of a certain female elf, drank her a glass of wine, and then nothing abnormal happened, so I didn't care too much, and when I came to the Rorsted Islands, I woke up from a deep sleep one night, and suddenly found myself entering a gorgeous palace under the sea, and picked up a coral that was steaming with electric light.

Although there are many human and physical evidence that Alger's account is true, "Aquaman" Ion Courtman is not entirely convinced, and sends him back to the island of Passu to be examined by Pope Gad II.

With the help of the "Angel's Embrace", Alger seemed to tremble in front of the "tyrant"-like aura, and unreservedly confessed that after meeting the female superior elf in a dream, he had a certain ambition, so he took the initiative to go to the Rorsted Islands, hoping to receive the inheritance, but in fact, he covered up the core secret and the most serious problem.

He passed this review by confessing his "ambitions", as for whether the female high-ranking elf saw that he had some elven blood, gave him adventures, or hid some purpose, he said that he was not clear, and hoped that His Majesty the Pope could investigate the answer and make him feel at ease.

Alger showed a fear of the unknown, convincing the cardinals that this was the main reason he reported his adventure.

This plan was designed by Alger himself, but with the advice of Miss "Justice", every link was made more humane.

Of course, as expected, after that, Alger did not wait for the promotion ceremony, but entered a period of inspection,

- The Pope of the Church of the Storm, the angel on earth, strengthened the seal in Alger's body, so that the "Lord of Calamity" trait could not penetrate and affect him for two years.

For most of the year, Alger led the pirate fleet assigned to him, harassed the ships of Fursack and Fenerport, and even directly participated in naval battles, taking great risks to make great achievements, fully demonstrating his devotion to the Lord of the Storm and his obedience to the orders of the Church.

Finally, after the recent naval battle of Rorsted, the situation became more and more difficult, and he waited for the approval of the Council of Cardinals.

Alger inhaled visibly, then clenched his right fist and struck his left chest, shouting:

"The storm is above!"

His excitement is half performance, half heartfelt, because in the past six months, he has really been under a lot of pressure:

The "Hermit" lady has digested the "occultist" potion and is preparing for the promotion to Sequence 3 "Master of Prophecy";

Although Miss "Justice" has not yet fully digested the "Manipulator" potion, she has made a lot of progress, and besides, she was a complete newcomer when she first joined the Tarot Society, and now she has become a real demigod and half human, and she is not just a sequence, but a level higher than Alger;

It won't be long before the "Sun" will be able to advance to Sequence 4 "The One Without Darkness" and gain divinity;

"Star" has also digested the Sequence 5 potion and accumulated a lot of merits, just waiting for the opportunity from above;

Miss "The Magician" traveled again and again, and it was not far from the potion digestion was not far away, and her teacher prepared the corresponding Sequence 4 "Mystic Mage" potion materials for her;

Needless to say, German Sparrow of the "World" would not be surprising even if he suddenly said that he had become an angel;

Miss "Judgment" is currently a Sequence 5 "Punishment Knight", and is digesting potions, trying to catch up with everyone's progress;

"Moon", who does not like hard work by nature, has a certain anxiety and is seeking the possibility of becoming a blood earl.

Faced with these circumstances, Alger, one of the most senior members of the Tarot Society, certainly did not want to be left behind, and he was desperately eager to be promoted to Sequence 4 and become a demigod.

After so many days, he always suppressed the anxiety in his heart, waited patiently, and twice showed signs of loss of control, so much so that he had to ask Miss "Justice" for treatment.

And now, he finally waited for the answer he wanted the most:

Pass the assessment and prepare for the ceremony!
