“Of the twelve pathogens, we have found treatnt for two kinds of plagues, and three kinds of diarrhea and fever,” Arcaian pointed to the cages of mice in the laboratory and said. “But strangely, the remaining pathogens are so stubborn that all kinds of treatnts are ineffective. They could only be cured by magic.”
Many of the little mice in the cages were sick, and so were even dying. Their condition was not good.
Of course, the healthy ones were larger in number.
“That’s good enough,” Sui Xiong nodded and said. “Is there any perfect thing in the world? The current situation is better than I expected.”
Even on the earth, where science and technology were so advanced, there were still many diseases that could not be cured. The level of science and technology in this world was not very good. The current results had almost exhausted the research experience accumulated by the Pasteur family for thousands of years. If they wanted to go further, they might have to wait until Arcaian Pasteur succeeded in getting the title of God, and then he could do deeper research with his Divine Power.
Maybe by that ti, he would really make a breakthrough in developing a treatnt for all the common infectious diseases that scientists on the earth had dread of for long period of ti, but had never succeeded in.
Thinking of this, he said, “Your research has almost co to an end. Now it’s ti to think about your own business.”
“My own business?” Arcaian was confused at first, and then he understood what he ant. “The improvent of strength is not achieved overnight. I do want to enter the Legendary Realm as soon as possible, but... it is not so easy!”
Sui Xiong was silent for a while and said with hesitation, “Actually... it’s not really that difficult to enter the Legendary Realm...”
Arcaian was surprised at that and looked at him doubtfully.
Since Sui Xiong had opened his mouth, Arcaian no longer hesitated. He said, “You know, God can elevate ordinary people to be his electorate. Once they are elevated, the electorate’s strength will increase greatly. It is not surprising that they would even step directly into the Legendary Realm. You are now a high-rank Druid. If you beco an electorate, you may even enter the Legendary Realm imdiately if you are lucky. Otherwise, it will be three or five years at most.”
Arcaian’s eyes turned bright. “You an... Would you like to promote as an electorate?”
“But as you know, once you beco my electorate, you beco my subordinate. In the future, even if you get the title of God, you will only be my God follower,” Sui Xiong said embarrassingly, he felt that he looked like a peddler.
Arcaian burst out laughing. “Your Majesty, that doesn’t matter! How glorious and difficult it is to get the title of God! If it’s true that as long as one is willing to beco a God follower and he will get the title of God later, you just announce it. I’m afraid that the semi-god masters coming to you will fill up the whole playground. The legendary masters can’t even grab a seat. As for , I have just stepped into the Advanced Realm, I would probably be slapped to death by other powerful masters on the way.
“I’ve been with you for many years, and I’ve clearly seen what you’ve done over the years. You are a great, noble, kind and honest god. It will be my luck and honor if you are willing to promote to be an electorate. Whether as a researcher or as a god in the future, I am willing to stand firmly behind you and follow your footsteps.”
With that, he knelt down on one knee to Sui Xiong. “Arcaian Pasteur swears here. I will be loyal to His Majesty, Void Mask, Auscar in my life. If I break my oath in the future, my deity may collapse, my strength may disappear, and my soul may fall into the Underground River and restart a new round of life!”
In this world, masters didn’t swear casually. Once oaths were made, the stronger the master was, the easier he would be punished. There had been many normal people who swore as casually as drinking water, but gods always refused to swear. And that was the reason.
As for gods, even if the oath had been made when they were mortals, as long as the oath included sothing related to him after getting the title of God, he still would be punished. There were no exceptions.
Arcaian had sworn today so that even if he got the title of God in the future, he would not be able to circumvent this oath. In other words, once the oath was made, he tied himself to Sui Xiong’s camp. From then on, he could not retreat from it in any situations. They shared honor as well as danger together. He was no longer able to retreat at any ti.
But he didn’t care about that. He believed in His Majesty Void Mask’s character. Following such a god, even if he died unluckily in the future, he will have died for the right and just things. What’s more, he was not confird to die, but he was confird to get the title of God. Facing such a great benefit, even if there was a risk of life and death, he had to take the chance.
Of course, these were all his thoughts. There was no need to speak them out.
All in all, it was a good choice to be loyal to His Majesty Void Mask. It was absolutely right!
Seeing him swear his loyalty, Sui Xiong smiled and nodded. He raised his tentacles and gently laid them on his shoulders.
“I promote you to be my electorate.”
According to the common rules, at this ti he should say so encouraging words and give him a title or sothing, but Sui Xiong thought that as long as Arcaian stepped into the Legendary Realm, it wouldn’t be long before got the title of God. Arcaian would be a god sooner or later; why should he waste energy thinking of a title?
So everything was simplified, and only the powerful Divine Power, like a torrential river, was poured into Arcaian’s body. It washed and tempered his body and soul and improved his strength rapidly.
A mont later, Arcaian’s eyes flashed; two golden-green flas burned in his pupils, and an invisible montum rose from his body. All kinds of equipnt in the laboratory were blown by his montum, shaking slightly.
In the sky above the laboratory, the clear sky suddenly beca cloudy. Dark clouds swirled rapidly into a small whirlpool, but they did not really fall.
Everyone on the ground had noticed that. Most of them were frightened, but there were also so that felt surprise and joy for they knew what had happened.
Most of the church leaders knew that the direction of the whirlpool corresponded with the underground laboratory of Master Pasteur. The vision that appeared at this mont was that Master Pasteur’s strength was advancing by leaps and bounds into the Legendary Realm.
Although Master Pasteur seed to have just stepped into the Advanced Realm, as a descendant of the advanced elves in the legend, he might have so special abilities and treasures to make his strength suddenly grow. Or maybe he had found sothing remarkable in his research that made him suddenly beco so powerful.
But anyway, for the Void Mask Land and the church, this was a good thing!
The crowd was in high spirits. After a mont, the strange vision in the sky disappeared. So impatient people had called their friends, coming in groups to the entrance of the underground laboratory to visit the new Legendary Master.
However, when they just reached the door, they heard Sui Xiong’s voice.
“Arcaian is adjusting his spirit and stabilizing his realm. If you want to see him, you have to wait until he gets the title of God.”
Everyone was shocked. They looked at each other, wondering if they had misheard sothing.
There seed to be sothing wrong...
What did ‘wait until he gets the title of God’ an?
Didn’t he just enter the Legendary Realm? Why did Sui Xiong ntion sothing so far away as getting the title of God?
From the Legendary Realm to achieving divinity, wasn’t there at least a Demigod Realm?
Had the law of the world changed so that the Legendary Realm had been the sa as getting divinity?
For a ti, the people were confused, but they had heard Sui Xiong’s order to go back and not disturb Arcaian.
Although they did not understand what was going on, the order of His Majesty Void Mask always had to be carried out, so they left in doubt one by one. They were thinking of waiting until next ti to et His Majesty Void Mask so they could ask about it.
Or they would ask when they t Master Arcaian Pasteur.
But maybe he would be a God at that ti. That was a little weird.
Inside the lab, Sui Xiong smiled and looked at Arcaian whose body had a faint golden-green fla slightly moving on it. He said, “You have really accumulated a lot of power. I believe that after a while, you will be able to beco a god.”
“There is still more.” Once he entered the Legendary Realm, Arcaian felt the feedback of the power from the source of the world, and he realized the key to becoming a god. At the mont, he was confident and answered with a smile, “Although I have found a way to treat many diseases, I haven’t made it universal yet. Only when I do that can I really get my clergy and succeed in becoming a god.”
“And what will be your clergy?” Sui Xiong asked.
“The God of Healing,” Arcaian answered. “The pioneer of dical technology, the curb of plague and epidemic, the doctor who saves the poor from illness... It will be my title after I beco a god.”
“It’s long enough.”
Arcaian laughed. “It’s short actually. For so gods with many clergies, if I wrote out all their titles, it would full of a piece of paper!”
Sui Xiong could not help but laugh. He patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him, “Then go ahead. Call when you are going to do that. Then I will find so reliable friends to help you. I’ll never let others make trouble with you.”
Arcaian nodded and said earnestly, “I really need your help, Your Majesty. When I get the title of God, the God of Plague and the God of Disaster are sure to stop . I have to ask your favor since I will be unable to fight against them.”
Sui Xiong was confused. “Why? Why will they stop you? They even don’t know you. Nor do you know them.”
“Because of a conflict of clergy,” Arcaian explained. “Once I get the title of God, the two of them, especially the God of Plague, will surely lose part of his Divine Power, and may even fall down from his divinity directly. By that ti, they will naturally feel that, and they will co make trouble to stop .”
“Rest assured! If they don’t co, everything will be ok. If they dare to co, I’ll beat them badly that they’ll have to look for their teeth all over the floor!” After knowing the reason, Sui Xiong laughed and slapped his body with his tentacles. “Trust !”
In a world of decay and gloom, the God of Plague suddenly trembled. He felt intuitively that a terrible thing was about to happen soon...
