-98- Bestowed by God
Free city-state, city of dawn.
In the hall of the central tower, fifty "lucky people" from various cities and tribes stood in a row, their faces excited and expectant.
Some of them are in their twenties, some are only eight or nine years old, but most of them are in their teens.
Extraordinary warriors dressed in elven gear lined the halls, swords held high, heads held high.
In the center of the hall, on a high platform that has attracted much attention.
Charlotte, dressed in an ornate robe, was standing in the center.
She was still almost an adult, with silver hair and red eyes, a tall figure, a pale golden glow circulating in her pupils, and crimson divine power lingering around her body.
I saw her raise her hands slightly, and the brilliance of divine power suddenly exploded, and the next moment...... A crimson mist enveloped the audience.
In the hall, the fifty "lucky ones" wrapped in divine power only felt a soft force enter their bodies.
They felt the power rush through their bodies, and they felt something in the depths of their souls slowly awakening.
When the brilliance dissipated and the crimson mist dissipated, they only felt that their five senses had been greatly strengthened, and their physical fitness had faintly made a further leap.
And when they looked around, there was a faint sense of magic flowing in the air.
"Magic...... It's magic! I felt the magic of what the book says! ”
"It's ...... Extraordinary power! We really have extraordinary power! ”
Feeling some extra power in their bodies, they showed excitement on their faces, and then bowed to Charlotte on the high platform:
"Praise be to you! Great Saviour! Extraordinary Mentor! ”
"Praise be to your mercy! Praise you for your gifts! ”
In the hall, the people erupted in enthusiastic cheers, and worshiped Charlotte reverently and feverishly.
Charlotte exhaled lightly, hiding the tiredness between her brows.
She bowed slightly, nodded to everyone, and then turned away in a look of adoration and admiration.
It wasn't until she left the hall and let the others go away that Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief.
She rubbed her temples, feeling the consumption of the blood divine power, and for a moment she was not sure whether what she had done meant to the real history.
It's been ten days since she arrived in the City of Dawn.
And this is the second time she has carried out "God's gift".
The cost of "God's gift" was even greater than Charlotte had imagined.
It's not that the power is supernatural, in fact, Charlotte doesn't use much of it.
Charlotte's consumption is mainly in energy.
Considering her own bloodline status, Charlotte's extraordinary power infused into these "lucky ones" is not powerful, but only stimulates and strengthens their own potential.
This is very demanding for the control of divine power, and even Charlotte, who has already ignited the divine fire, needs to be done carefully.
There's no way, the power of the blood clan is still very domineering.
In particular, Charlotte's own bloodline has been transformed many times, and the bloodline of the body has been the same as that of the "True Ancestor", if the power given to help people "awaken" is more, these people will become crazy monsters because they can't withstand the power of the blood clan.
Of course, Charlotte can also turn these lucky ones into bloodborns through the first hug.
But Charlotte didn't.
Chu Huo needs to give the other party his own blood, not to mention whether these mortals can withstand the blood of Charlotte, who is already a demigod, even if they can, Charlotte's blood will not be given out casually.
The blood of the blood clan is very precious, containing the origin power of the blood clan, unless it is to make the lowest level of blood servants, otherwise, the first embrace is also a lot of consumption for the blood clan.
And for Charlotte, blood is even more special.
She has not yet fully grasped the power of mythology, and in this era of gods and spirits, rashly giving away her own blood is likely to become a tool for other gods to deal with her.
After all, Charlotte was only there to help the Free City-State improve its supernatural powers, and the Free City-State ...... It's not worth it for her to do that.
Of course, even so, the transcendent beings who Charlotte helped to "awaken", the awakened transcendent powers were more or less blood-like.
For example, many people's strength is biased towards the dark system, and many people have gained powers that are very similar to those of the blood clan, such as extraordinary recovery power, and explosive power.
However, while it was quite energy-consuming to perform the "Divine Gift", Charlotte became interested in it after performing it for the first time.
None of them.
She found that this way of helping people "awaken to the extraordinary" was also a kind of mental exercise for herself.
Charlotte's strength has grown so fast lately that she can't even adjust well to her current strength.
For example, when he first entered the ranks, he couldn't grasp the strength well, and he would always crush the teacup, and now the strength of the main body is close to that of the legendary Charlotte, a similar phenomenon has also appeared.
Not only that, but this phenomenon has even become more obvious because she ignited the Divine Fire and fused with a second Faceless Idol to further enhance the power of the Divine Fire.
When she just "crossed", she directly attracted the arrival of the god of abomination and aberration, in addition to the reason why she killed the other party's dependents, her divine aura that radiated all the time like a lighthouse in the darkness was also an important factor.
In layman's terms, Charlotte's steadily increasing soul power can no longer meet her growing strength of divine fire and divine power.
And now, through the "gift of God", she is able to further strengthen her control over her power and temper her soul.
In a sense, it's a win-win situation.
The only problem is that it drains energy.
Charlotte pondered that after all, she couldn't just go in and out, but still had to find an opportunity to find a way to increase her divine power.
Leaving the hall, Charlotte ascended the stairs leading to the upper tower.
When she reached the library of the upper tower, Harald was already waiting.
"Teacher, you have worked hard, I have already selected all the books you want to consult."
He said respectfully.
Looking at the heavy elven books selected behind Harald, Charlotte bowed slightly:
"Not bad."
After speaking, she glanced around again:
"Where's Lilith?"
"She went to Silver City, there was news over there, there seems to be traces of the godhead fragment you need, she went to investigate it herself, and in addition, there are also old god believers who are about to move there recently, and she also needs to go to suppress it."
Harald said.
Hearing his words, Charlotte nodded knowingly.
After she casually brought up the information about the "Godhead Fragment", Lilith took it to heart and kept investigating the relevant information to do something for Charlotte.
In Lilith's words, Charlotte had done so much for her and Harald, and she wanted to be able to do something in return.
As for the old gods that Harald refers to, he refers to the gods of abomination and distortion, and they are said to be the old gods who once slept in various parts of Miria, and were accidentally awakened by the elves.
After the rise of the free city-state, these gods coveted the belief of the free city-state, and often carried out various secret activities, and even directly invaded.
The resistance forces pulled together by Lilith and the two fell apart, also because of these old gods.
That is, Lilith and Harald are strong enough to control the artifacts left by the elves to barely compete with them.
Of course, it was only barely resisting, and according to Charlotte's judgment, it would not be difficult for these gods to really push the free city-state, but they didn't do it, and there seems to be something hidden in it.
Charlotte pondered that this might have something to do with the special ability of the two to "awaken".
"Okay, I see, I want to read a book, don't let people bother me for a while, and call me again when Lilith comes back."
Charlotte said.
Harald respectfully replied, and then bowed and took his leave.
Soon, Charlotte was left alone in the library.
At this time, Charlotte looked expectantly at the collection of books that Harald had selected.
These books are all classics left by the elves.
It is the spoils of Lilith and Harald's overthrow of the Tower Nation.
At the same time, these books are also the biggest surprise that Charlotte encountered after this "crossing".
Taking a deep breath, Charlotte came to her desk.
She looked at the book at the top, it was heavy, written on enchanted paper peculiar to the elves, and it was engraved with beautiful and elegant elven script.
With the Elven language that she had mastered through the Blood Tome, Charlotte easily read the words:
"A Brief History of the Old World."
