Chapter 403: Cap
Based on this premise, the "Apostle", who also carried a large amount of divine origin power, could suppress and plunder the "Sea God Pearl", because it was the same level of energy form.
Facing an enemy of this level is also an unprecedented experience for the high priest, and it would be false to say that he was not nervous, but more of an excitement.
As for the final result, he is very confident, first of all, the intelligence from the "sea god", although the other party is likely to be an "apostle", but if he wants to face himself head-on, it is definitely self-defeating.
The other party obviously knew this, and after the "sneak attack" destroyed the "Hemsster" and plundered a "Poseidon Pearl", he immediately fled, obviously afraid of being pursued.
Thinking about it, let's not talk about whether this "apostle" is strong or not, the home advantage of the "Golden Sea" alone is enough for the high priest to be full of confidence.
According to the information conveyed by the "Poseidon", that is, the full version of the incident video, it shows that the strength of the other party is not very strong, and when facing the "Poseidon Pearl" of the "Heamster" Temple, he was even forced to death for a time.
In the end, it was obvious that some kind of method of pressing the bottom of the box broke out, and it suddenly turned the tables and successfully broke through the defense of the "Poseidon Pearl", suppressed it and plundered it, resulting in the complete collapse of "Heamster".
According to the high priest's thinking, the other party should be an apprentice apostle, or a junior colleague who has been in the position of high priest for many years.
To put it simply, the combat effectiveness of the "Apostle" profession is actually derived from the gods to a large extent, and the longer the transformation time it has experienced, the more perfect the body, the more origin power it can carry, and the stronger the combat effectiveness will naturally be.
In fact, as a temporary container of origin power, the physical perfection of the "apostle" also has an upper limit, and generally speaking, the upper limit is determined according to the talent of the transformed.
The High Priest himself is a rare genius in the mermaid clan in a hundred years, and this is not about his talent in martial arts or other aspects, but only referring to the adaptability of his body to the original power of the gods.
In this respect, he is indeed a once-in-a-century genius, and among those contenders at the beginning, he was almost undoubtedly designated by the "sea god" as the successor of the previous high priest, and then he has been firmly in this position until now.
In the same way, although each "apostle" has an upper limit, this upper limit is not so easy to develop, it is all accumulated water grinding work, and it cannot be achieved overnight.
According to what the high priest knew, and what the "sea god" told him, among the many high priests in front of him, there were no more than ten people who could really be transformed to the upper limit in their lifetime, that is, a single digit.
And he is among them, and in terms of the upper limit of talent, he can be ranked in the top three, belonging to the elite apostle of the Eight Classics, as early as ten years ago, he reached the upper limit.
At least the "sea god" was very satisfied with him, and once praised him as the true "son of the gods", that is, the "chosen one" in ancient legends.
But so far, the high priest has not even had the opportunity to step out of the Great Temple, and over the years, although there have been many turmoil in the "Golden Sea", the wars on the front line have also come and gone, and the open and secret battles with humans have never stopped.
However, on the whole, the situation in this sea area is still hopelessly stable, and the high priest even thought that he would not have the opportunity to leave the Great Temple in his lifetime, go to a real battle, and dedicate his blood to the "sea god".
As a result, the opportunity came so suddenly, and it was an unprecedented "divine war", which made the high priest tremble with excitement.
As far as he knew, no strange "apostles" had entered the "Golden Sea" for many years, not to mention strangers, even if they were not strangers, and there was no one.
Even the "sea god" himself once vaguely said that it seems that there are few gods in this world anymore, and most of them fell in a large-scale divine war a long, long time ago, and the rest gradually died out.
The specific information, the high priest is not clear, what the "sea god" says, he listens to it, and rarely takes the initiative to ask questions, which is also the rule and the price.
Based on this, he just guessed that in the current world, maybe only the great and supreme "Sea God" remains, what a lonely god.
Unexpectedly, this time, a highly suspicious "apostle" existence appeared, and he also raided the temple and plundered a "Poseidon Pearl".
What kind of behavior is this? This is a thing, and it is a super big thing, a precursor to the "divine war"!
If the identity of the other party is confirmed to be the "apostle", then behind this guy, there must also be a god, and looking at this incident, it is clear that the other party is eyeing the "sea god", which is an extremely dangerous and provocative behavior.
As the only elite apostle under the command of the "Sea God", the high priest feels that his battle blood is boiling, this is an unshirkable task, he must brutally and ruthlessly fight back against the opponent and fight the arrogance of the other party, otherwise he really thinks that the "Sea God" is easy to bully.
The High Priest was so excited that he thought a lot along the way, and even guessed who his successor would be.
In fact, he knew the inside story very well, and in the various secret rooms of the Great Temple, there were currently six candidates, that is, "probationary apostles".
Strictly speaking, these people already have the ability to accommodate part of the origin power of the "Sea God", after all, they have been transformed for so long, and the unqualified ones have long been eliminated, and those who have been able to replace round after round and survive to this day are basically stable.
Therefore, since five years ago, after the sixth "trainee apostle" was basically stabilized, the candidate team for the successor of the high priest had almost been demarcated, and if there was no big accident, it must have been selected from these six people.
Of course, the act of selecting talented merfolk to enter the Great Temple, and then transforming and eliminating them little by little, will definitely not stop because of this.
Considering the length of the process and the elimination rate, the Great Temple has actually been doing this thing all the time, almost never stopping, but after the list of six people is determined this time, the people who are selected will directly wait for the next one.
And even if these six people are there, except for one who will definitely be designated as the next high priest, the remaining five will not really be destroyed.
This is all a "trainee apostle" that consumes a lot of resources and is transformed little by little, and he is willing to destroy it if he is stupid, and the "sea god" is naturally not stupid, on the contrary, this god is an outstanding representative of thrifty housekeeping, and he has saved up his family money almost bit by bit.
