Chapter 126: A Conversation with a Past Deity (2)
After getting Glerint's "consent", Shi Shiran, a young man with copper hair and golden eyes, spoke:
"There is something special about the nature of your soul, and I can't see it concretely even with the help of the 'Bronze Bell of Order'. But what I can see is that you should have an extraordinary understanding of the world. β
The essence is a "traverser"...... Gleilynt did not reply, but listened to Him ask:
"I guess you're not a stranger to me? Do you also have a certain understanding of the two paths of 'Black Emperor' and 'Inquisitor'? β
As if he had some confidence in this, he did not wait for Glerint's reply, but restrained the smile on his face and said:
"Well, I don't know if you know that before I boarded the 'Inquisitor', I was in sequence one of the same paths as you: 'Prince of the Order'.
After ascending to the throne, I managed to rule out the extraordinary nature of the 'Black Emperor' pathway Sequence 9 through Sequence 2.
Yes, you guessed it, that's your share.
That's why I was able to draw you here. β
I see...... I thought it was just an aggregation of extraordinary traits, but now it looks like it's also under the influence of His Majesty the Night Emperor!
"What do you mean?"
He glanced up at the handsome young man with the golden eyes, and reasonably suspected that the purpose of his explanation of the origin was to retrieve this extraordinary trait that "belonged to him in the first place".
Unexpectedly, the Night Emperor shook his head slightly and said:
"I'm in a special state now, and I don't need it at all."
"You don't have to worry."
Status...... What kind of special law?
Gleilynt was a little curious about this, but he didn't dare to try to ask at all.
Having clarified this, the Night Emperor continued:
"What I can tell you is that the 'Bronze Bell of Order' contains indeed an extraordinary property of the 'Hand of Order'. But it's not perfect...... The extraordinary characteristics of Sequence 2 and below are missing. β
"And as the former owner of the extraordinary properties of the 'Duke of Entropy' in your hands, I certainly know that if nothing else, you should have a 'Servant of the Madness' under you. His head corresponds to the extraordinary characteristics of the complete 'balancer' that the 'Bronze Bell of Order' lacks. β
"I need it!"
He was quite open to his request.
β¦β¦
It turns out that the extraordinary characteristics of the head of the "Servant of Madness" are really the "balancer" of Sequence 2!
Glerint's first thought was:
The other party confirmed one of his previous guesses.
Immediately after, his second thought was:
It's not a big deal, and since He wants it, give it to Him.
Not to mention that the current situation is that he is subject to the other party, even if it is not, he will not hesitate to come up with this "balancer" characteristic.
The reason is simple, it is not a necessity for him to achieve his quest!
His goal has always been clear, and that is to become a sequence two angel. You can enjoy a long life without having to endure too much madness......
So this "balancer" trait is just the icing on the cake for him.
While thinking to himself, he heard Trenthorst say:
"In exchange, I can give you some help in battle after I've perfected myself...... can give you all the subsequent potion recipes. It can even allow you to use the status of the 'Night Emperor' to help you ascend to the position of the 'Black Emperor'. β
His plain words were full of temptation, and even Glerint, who was not too ambitious, was thrilled to hear it.
But in an instant, he felt that this was not very reasonable.
If the Night Emperor becomes the complete sequence of the "Hand of Order", then he will undoubtedly go to the "Inquisitor". Then why did he help to cultivate a "black emperor"?
Fight yourself in the ring?
That's not a full meal......
But he did not suspect that He was deliberately deceiving himself. The reason is very simple, now I can say that I am completely subject to Him, and there is no need for the other party to lie in this regard.
Thinking of it, he asked, but Glerint, who was already lying flat at this time, had no worries.
"But my plan is that I will be very satisfied with becoming a 'Duke of Entropy'."
"Your Majesty, don't you long to return to the throne of the 'Inquisitor'? Don't you aspire to master essentia and become a 'disorder'? Why is your idea to help me become the 'Black Emperor'? β
It seems that he didn't expect Glerint to have such a wealth of knowledge, and he is so unmotivated, even under such conditions, he doesn't want to go further and ascend to the throne.
As a result, Trenthorst was a little speechless for a moment.
After a few moments, He continued:
"Your knowledge of the top layer of the sequence is somewhat beyond my expectations......"
He shook his head and said without emotion:
"In this case, you should know: normally, the existence of sequence three and above needs an 'anchor' to stabilize itself?"
"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Then have you ever wondered how I can maintain my sanity without an anchor now?"
"This ......"
To be honest, Glerint did have such doubts, and these hundred or so people in the valley alone were obviously not enough to become the anchor of Sequence One. But at the same time, he also thought that the "fate" pathway sequence has a method of "restarting" to anchor himself and wash away the madness.
So his guess is that the Night Emperor is keeping his sanity based on the sequence characteristics of the "Hand of Order".
But what does it mean by his words, but that doesn't seem to be the case?
Seeing Greenlight hesitate, the Night Emperor explained to himself:
"I've said it before, I'm in a special state."
"In a way, my current essence is the 'Bronze Bell of Order', a seal. In such a state, there is no possibility of promotion for me, unless I completely abandon my sanity......"
"And if I lose this extraordinary part of the Hand of Order, I will also not be able to maintain my sanity and memory...... That's why I offered to help you become the 'Black Emperor', or even the 'Disordered'. That way, no one who is trying to be promoted to 'Inquisitor' will come and beat me up. β
β¦β¦
So that's the case, this majesty's intention is to lie flat in sequence one? That's not a small difficulty, and it means helping a true god to ascend to the old days.
"But, with your perfectly normal sanity, is there no way to recover?"
Trenthorst frowned, hesitated, and said:
"It's not completely impossible...... If there is a blank soul that allows me to transplant my current memories and emotions into the past, I should be able to be promoted again. β
"But...... I don't want to try it anymore. β
Indeed, if he didn't care about the human body, he would be in a pretty good state right now. After all, there is no need for an anchor, which saves a lot of work.
And the end is coming, and it is normal for him not to be willing to take risks in such a short period of time.
β¦β¦
For a moment, both sides fell silent.
Half a minute later, the Night Emperor continued his deliberation and said:
"If you really don't want to ascend to the god throne, all I can give you is all the potion recipes for the 'Black Emperor' path, plus some help for you in battle."
I can find the corresponding "Blasphemy Solitaire" recipe for the potion recipe of the "Black Emperor" path...... However, the help of a "0" level seal in battle is indeed invaluable! And He is wise, which is almost equivalent to an angel in perfect condition.
And most importantly, I don't actually have the right to say no......
His Majesty the Night Emperor seemed to be very polite and fair...... At the same time, it is also about taking what you need. But Glerint is not naΓ―ve to think that the relationship between the two parties is really equal, that the other party really wants to be for himself.
He pretended to think for a moment, and then spoke:
"Okay, Your Majesty, I completely agree with your conditions!"
"Well, I can't drive Him right now, so how am I going to take out this 'balancer' trait of Him and give it to you?"
