Chapter 49: Vivien's Deal

"In ancient times, before the advent of the calendar, life on this planet was ruled by the gods of the Seven Pillars.

Creatures believe in the gods and gain unknown abilities from the gods, and the powerful creatures actively explore the world, and eventually survive on a planet of natural disasters and chaos.

The unknown energy given by the gods came to be called "magic".

According to the nature of the magic power obtained, the creatures gave names to the Seven Pillars of God, which were-

The god of positive and negative, Cen.

The god of life, death and reincarnation, Howl.

God of Elements and Nothingness, Olga.

The God of Identification and Creation, Elsdack.

God of Seals and Sacrifices, _(:ะทใ‚โˆ )_

......โ€

"Wait!?" Su Ye interrupted Vivian, who was gushing, with a strange expression: "What is the name of the God of Sealing and Sacrifice?"

"Huh? It's called "_(:ะทใ‚โˆ )_". Vivien wondered.

"_(:ะทใ‚โˆ )_"What the hell! Tell me how to pronounce this thing? โ€

Who gave this ghost name? Wouldn't the Old Gods be angry? I'm going to be furious...

"This is an ancient script, and the academic community has not yet deciphered its meaning, so it can only be called so first." Vivien said, writing down the names of the old gods on the paper with a pen.

But no matter how Su Ye looks at it, it looks like a legendary emoji...

โ€œ... Forget it, the names of the remaining two pillars of ancient gods, are they all Yan... Paleographies? โ€

"I don't know, at present, the academic community has only unearthed evidence of the existence of these five pillars of ancient gods, as for the nature and name of the last two pillars of ancient gods... It remains to be verified. โ€

Vivi paused, stared at Su Ye with a pair of bright eyes, and said, "The Ancient Seven Pillars Ancient Gods ruled this planet for a long time, but one day, they suddenly disappeared."

"The old gods are gone, and the planet has completely lost the source of its magic. As the creatures on the planet multiply from generation to generation, the power of the ancient gods in the bloodline gradually weakens and disappears. โ€

"Our human race has the shortest lifespan and the fastest reproduction, so the power of the ancient gods has also disappeared the fastest. As early as thousands of years ago, the human race had almost lost the power of the ancient gods, and occasionally when a few humans with weak divine power appeared, they would be persecuted by others as witches.

So much so that in the war provoked by the ten thousand races in the future, the human race was almost wiped out, and the survivors were enslaved and stolen by other subhuman races..."

Su Ye suddenly realized, no wonder the humans in this world are so hostile and wary of the subhuman race, it turns out that there is such a past.

"And then?"

"Later? Later the goddess Yuliria appeared. Vivien said lightly, "The goddess is on the side of the humans. โ€

"Got it."

Because the power of the ancient gods in the bloodline disappeared the fastest, human beings were enslaved by other subhuman races, until the goddess appeared, and human beings regained their power from the goddess, and gradually gained their current status.

It is no wonder that the human beings of this world are all pious when they mention the goddess. Even if a believer is found to believe in other gods, he will be branded a heretic and sent to death...

All human beings in the world are devotion to the Goddess Cult.

"That's why I admire you very much, Su Ye." Vivien smiled, "Even at the risk of being executed by the Knights of the Holy Court, you still chose to believe in the Old Gods and became the oracle of Elstark. โ€

Su Ye: "......"

Can he say he is the victim? At first, I drank a strange drink by mistake, but then I fell deeper and deeper, and I was inexplicably blessed by the god Elsdack...

"Therefore, I want to make a deal with you."

โ€œ... Trade? โ€

Vivien nodded, "You know, I'm interested in the Old Gods. In particular, there is very little scientific information about the god of identification and creation, so I would like to ask you to help me with my investigation. โ€

"In return, I can give you further access to the divine power of the god Elstark with my blessing-"

Halfway through Vivian's words, she saw Su Ye take a step back, pull out the long sword behind her back, and stare at herself vigilantly, and couldn't help but be stunned: "What are you doing here?"

"Blessed... You are a member of the Goddess Cult! Su Ye clenched the explosive sword in his hand, and once the other party made a move, he would not hesitate to wave the long sword, letting her feel what the art of explosion was.

โ€œ...... I think you're mistaken. Vivien came to her senses and explained, "I'm not an oracle, and I have nothing to do with the Goddess Cult. The blessing on me is the research results, you know, the research results! โ€

Seeing that Su Ye was suspicious, she gritted her teeth lightly and simply said: "I told you before, I am engaged in the research of the ancient gods, and I have already achieved some preliminary results.

The blessing that currently resides on me is called [Yuanhui], which is derived from the concept of reincarnation extracted from Hal, the god of life, death, and reincarnation. As the name suggests, it can extract the magic of the ancient gods and channel them to others.

So, as long as you help me investigate the god Elsdack, if I find an item containing the power of the old gods along the way, I can help you further obtain the power of Elstark. โ€

Su Ye was moved after hearing this.

This is indeed a very tempting proposal, although he hates the Elstark Order, but the power of the Old Gods is very good.

With an Elstark Pupil alone, he avoided several dangers during this time. If you can get other blessings from the old gods......

But he didn't lose his cool, the woman named Vivian in front of him was full of mysteries, and they were all her words, and it was stupid to say what to believe.

"This matter... I'll need to think about it for a while longer. โ€

"Absolutely." Vivian smiled, took out a business card from her pajama pocket and handed it to him, "This is my address and contact information, if you think about it, you can contact me at any time..."

Then she left the camp, her back was dashing and crisp, if she hadn't limped because of her broken foot...

Towards evening, Sean returned to the camp.

"The people from the City Lord's Mansion have arrived at the agreed place."

"So fast?" Su Ye was exchanging tips with Li Yueru, and when he heard this, he raised his eyebrows, "How many people are here?" Is the castle lord himself here? โ€

"It's just three maids from the city lord's mansion, and the city lord is not among them." Sean paused and said solemnly, "Around... No one else has been found yet..."

Su Ye's face was also a little dignified when he heard this.

If it were him, it would never be possible to send only three unarmed maids to trade with the bandits, not to mention that there were still a group of assassins like Sean in the City Lord's Mansion.

No one else was found, which means that the enemies lurking nearby are likely to be assassins stronger than Sean, or have magic tools that can hide themselves...

"I see, inform Julia, take the meat ticket and set off when you're ready."
