The most surprising spoil of today's battle was the sealed artifact from that "Blatherer."
A sealed artifact ford by a Beyonder of this level is definitely a Grade 1 Sealed Artifact.
Sitting on the "Iron Throne," Hobert waved his hand, and the short blade flew into his grasp.
It was an orange-red short sword, looking like raw iron just taken out of a furnace, with a distinct burning sensation in his hand.
Using the level of the "Nation of Disorder," Hobert quickly learned the abilities of this sealed artifact:
"It can launch ntal attacks against enemies, triggering and detonating their emotions, causing them to fall into ntal chaos; it can emit 'whispers' that are very easy to lose control of, even demigod-level enemies must concentrate on resisting the erosion of the 'whispers'; it can use 'words of filth,' including 'death,' 'slowness,' and 'corruption'; the weapon itself can transform into a giant magma sword, releasing steam with violent toxins."
Because the "Blatherer" had just begun to lose control when he was swallowed by the "Great Sage," the abilities of this weapon were not so bizarre.
But the negative effects were not small either: "There is a very high probability of indiscriminately detonating the emotions of everyone around, causing ntal confusion, and such ntal confusion is permanent damage and cannot be recovered. Each use requires continuously killing 9 people and feeding the short sword with their internal organs and souls. If not enough internal organs and souls are obtained, the short sword will devour the holder. There is a considerable probability of receiving the gaze of the Bloody Archduke, and such a gaze is enough to turn Beyonders below the demigod level into a pool of blood, and there is also a certain probability of gaining so abilities or benefits from it. Each use is equivalent to being eroded by the abyss once."
With such negative effects, he didn't dare take it outside to use at all, especially the gaze of the "Bloody Archduke," who could bear that?
And before becoming a demigod, Hobert had no way to form an effective seal on a Grade 1 Sealed Artifact, which ant that this sealed artifact's abilities looked good, but he couldn't use it for the ti being.
This made Hobert deeply realize what a sealed artifact was: this thing could only be used after an effective seal was made!
Hobert sowhat disappointedly wanted to put the short sword back, but then suddenly seed to think of sothing. He picked up the Black Emperor card on the armrest with one hand, which made Hobert's figure beco much more majestic, much more solid, and full of dignity.
With the other hand holding the short sword, he projected his power into his star.
The short sword followed Hobert's power and entered the star together, arriving in the real world!
Because of the suppression of the Black Emperor card, even if it left the "Nation of Disorder," the negative effects of the short sword would not affect Hobert for the ti being.
In other words, this short sword could be used by the "Creator"! This gave the "Creator" many Sequence 3 level abilities!
Withdrawing his power, Hobert returned to the "Nation of Disorder." In fact, the "Creator" had better not use these powers, it was too degrading!
It could be used when he was sure he could kill the other party, to silence them.
Or it could be used as an auxiliary ans, such as the short sword's "ntal attack," which from the surface looked a bit like the "Judge's" ntal attack.
However, the process of use and the effects caused were completely different, but who had the ability to go back and subdivide the gods?
Hobert looked at the short sword again, nad it "1-105," and then placed it on the stone platform for holding Grade 1 Sealed Artifacts.
Then Hobert considered a question: why couldn't the previous four Grade 1 Sealed Artifacts have such an operation?
In fact, starting from Grade 2 Sealed Artifacts, Hobert could use the power of the sealed artifacts in the "Nation of Disorder." For example, Hobert could use the "Healing Fork" to heal Elliot through the "Nation of Disorder."
But without exception, these sealed artifacts could only be used in the "Nation of Disorder." For example, when Hobert projected the "Creator's" power into the real world to prevent the descent of the "Abomination," he could not bring any sealed artifacts out.
"1-105" could be brought out. If soone slashed at the "Creator" with a sword, Hobert could completely use "1-105" to conjure a giant magma sword to block the enemy's attack.
They were all Grade 1 Sealed Artifacts, why was there such a difference?
After thinking for a while, Hobert roughly understood what was going on.
Although they were all Grade 1 Sealed Artifacts, "1-101" to "1-104" were sealed artifacts ford by Sequence 4, while "1-105" was a sealed artifact ford by Sequence 3.
At the Sequence 3 level, one could respond to prayers within a certain range, and divinity was much stronger than Sequence 4.
Correspondingly, it was equivalent to having the ability to project power to a distance, so it could enter the real world through the "Nation of Disorder."
In addition, the special nature of the "Nation of Disorder" and the rank suppression of the Black Emperor card were also very important.
The special nature of the "Nation of Disorder" was that it could bypass many rules.
For example, also projecting power into the real world, Klein, who had the "Sefirah Castle," needed a "Secret Rite" to project a large amount of power.
But the "Nation of Disorder" completely skipped the "Implicit Ritual." Hobert could easily project the power of the "Nation of Disorder" into the real world.
The rank suppression of the Black Emperor card was also very important. Klein had the operation of summoning himself, but even in this state, he did not dare to bring out the "Sea God Scepter."
If Klein had the Fool card to suppress it, perhaps when he summoned himself, he could also temporarily suppress the negative effects of the "Sea God Scepter."
Having figured out the matter of "1-105," Hobert looked at the "Umbilical Cord of the Evil God's Offspring" again. It could still be used twice, and the black eyes could still be used once.
In other words, the angel-level combat power could still be used three tis in total.
The "Bull Devil Monarch" had been used once and could still be used six more tis. The "Great Sage" could still be used ten tis. The demigod-level combat power was still relatively abundant.
Returning to the real world, Hobert was about to rest when Baron Felix sent two maids.
Hobert was already very tired today. He sent the two maids back and asked them to tell Baron Felix, "Let him do his barony well."
This was telling Baron Felix that he only wanted the rule of the West Bank, not the title.
As long as Felix was as honest as before, his barony could continue, and his descendants could continue to do it generation after generation.
Because Hobert had stayed on the edge of the angel-level battlefield during the day, he had nightmares all night.
But overall, the effect of the rest was still very good!
The next morning, he began to get busy. First, he talked to Helen about the compensation for the fallen mbers of the second team.
Three Beyonders from the second team died, plus four from the first team. A total of seven people died in yesterday's battle, which was equivalent to one-third of the mbers of the special operations departnt.
Fortunately, there was cooperation with the Church of the Earth Mother, and many mbers who were seriously injured were rescued in ti.
Otherwise, the death toll might have reached about three-fifths. In that case, this special operations departnt might have disbanded due to the huge casualties.
After all, this group of people was pieced together by Hobert and had no cohesion or centripetal force to speak of.
But that was before. With the distribution of spoils and the handling of the aftermath of the fallen, the loyalty of the two teams, especially the first team, to Hobert had increased a lot.
As for the handling of the aftermath of the fallen mbers of the second team, Hobert basically handed it over to Helen and handled it according to so of the Theosophy Order's usual practices.
At the sa ti, Hobert would also issue a pension of 1500 gold Lire as a base. Just 1500 gold Lire was enough to buy a small manor in the countryside and live the life of a farr from then on.
Similarly, the Theosophy Order did not have the habit of issuing pensions to the families of the fallen, so Hobert's move was also affird by the mbers of the second team.
These mbers of the Theosophy Order were relatively moderate, and they had basically started families in the South Colson area, or their families were here.
So these pensions were still quite useful to them. At this mont, they finally had the feeling of being official Beyonders.
As for the Beyonder characteristics of the fallen, Hobert fully respected the opinions of the Theosophy Order and did not interfere too much.
After the aftermath of the second team was handled well, the mbers of the two teams ca to Hobert one after another with spoils to exchange for rits, and then used the rits to exchange for the Beyonder characteristics they needed.
The rits of four mbers were exchanged for the Beyonder characteristics used for their advancent.
Therefore, Hobert paid a "Sheriff" and an "Interrogator" Beyonder characteristic, as well as a "Trickmaster" and an "Astrologer" Beyonder characteristic.
Other people had also accumulated a lot of rits. If another such battle was launched, many more people could advance.
Seeing that soone had indeed exchanged for the required Beyonder characteristics and advanced, the mbers were already very supportive of Hobert.
In the end, about two-thirds of the spoils of this battle ca into Hobert's hands. Compared to the payout, Hobert made a bloody profit!
Because the exchange standard was set by him. For example, the Beyonder characteristic of "Serial Killer" could be exchanged for 600 rits, which ant that an "Interrogator" had to kill four "Serial Killers" to exchange for a "Judge" Beyonder characteristic.
The "Interrogator" had no objection to this, because "Serial Killers" were indeed easier to kill. But it was also very difficult to kill four enemies of the sa sequence in one battle.
For the "Sheriff," it was easier for them to advance. They only needed to kill two "Unwinged Angel" and one "Prisoner" to exchange for the corresponding Beyonder characteristics.
In the afternoon, there was nothing to do, but Hobert, who had to temporarily sit in the West Bank, went to the "Nation of Disorder" again to give Elliot the 9 Beyonder characteristics he had promised before.
Looking at it this way, it was imdiately clear who was the direct line and who was the collateral line.
Finally, Hobert sacrificed all the spoils to the "Nation of Disorder." He made a statistics. There were a total of 3 "Desire Apostles," 10 "Demons," 14 "Serial Killers," 16 "Unwinged Angel," and 8 "Criminals" Beyonder characteristics.
Another big harvest!
In addition, Hobert also obtained a Grade 2 Sealed Artifact of the "Door" pathway.
There were very few sealed artifacts obtained in this battle, only three, and Hobert was assigned one of them.
Hobert had thought about this question before. The reason why Beyonders of the "Abyss" pathway rarely used sealed artifacts may be because they were relatively versatile.
For example, they had physical attack abilities such as the "Magma Sword," as well as ntal and desire-related attack abilities, as well as "Words of Filth," poison gas, and remote attacks such as "Sulfur Fireballs."
The most annoying thing was that they also had the ability of "Malice Perception." As soon as the enemy had an idea, they would disappear.
What sealed artifact was needed?
The "Fabbouti's Ring" made a great contribution to achieving such great results in yesterday's battle!
If the "Blatherer" felt the threat from Hobert, or rather from the "Great Sage," and turned around and ran, then this battle would not be able to continue halfway through.
If the "Blatherer" ran, Bowen would definitely have to run too. At most, only Yarling and the others could be harvested.
But killing three "Desire Apostles" was not as impactful as killing a demigod.
For the next two days, Hobert stayed in the West Bank and recovered from the negative state he had been in on the demigod battlefield before.
On Thursday night, Hobert had dinner and returned to his room early. Then he changed his clothes, transford into the face with the tall nose and high cheekbones that he had used to go to Backlund last ti, and used "Travel" to co to the Bravehearts Bar again.
He ordered a glass of beer as a matter of course, drank it all, left the bar, and hailed a rental carriage.
After the carriage had driven for seven or eight minutes, Miss Sharron with her delicate features and light golden hair appeared in the carriage.
Hobert smiled slightly and said, "Good evening!"
"Good!" Miss Sharron responded perfunctorily, and then imdiately got to the point: "There are too many Beyonder characteristics you ntioned last ti. We only want a part of them."
"Which part specifically?"
"30 Sequence 9s, 25 Sequence 8s, 15 Sequence 7s, 10 Sequence 6s, 5 Sequence 5s, and also the 'Puppet' Beyonder characteristic."
Hobert was about to speak, but Miss Sharon spoke first again: "We want them in such large quantities, you must give us a certain discount."
"You should know that the price I gave is not very high," Hobert said with a slight smile. "Especially the Beyonder characteristics of Sequence 7 and above, it is difficult to buy them at this price elsewhere."
Hobert was very curious, how would Miss Sharron, who seed to have very few emotional changes, bargain?
"You must make it cheaper, otherwise we will not consider allying with you," Sharron said in a flat tone.
Hobert smiled and thought to himself: Sure enough, she was a "ruthless person who didn't talk much."
What Sharron had just said was indeed sothing Hobert was more concerned about. Before coming to Sharron, he had already decided that he could give the Temperance faction so discounts as sincerity for forming an alliance.
Imdiately, Hobert took out paper and pen from his bag and said, "Okay, let's calculate the total amount first, and then I'll give you a discount."
Sharron nodded, looking quite satisfied with this proposal.
So Hobert listed another list: "According to the previous quotation, Sequence 9 'Prisoner' Beyonder characteristics are 280 pounds each, 30 copies are 8400 pounds.
"Sequence 8 'Lunatic' Beyonder characteristics are 580 pounds each, 25 copies are 14500 pounds.
"Sequence 7 'Werewolf' Beyonder characteristics are 1300 pounds each, 15 copies are 19500 pounds.
Sequence 6 'Zombie' Beyonder characteristics are 3200 pounds each, so 10 copies would be 32000 pounds.
Sequence 5 'Wraith' Beyonder characteristics are 6000 pounds each, so 5 copies would be 30000 pounds.
One Sequence 4 'Puppet' Beyonder characteristic is worth 50000 pounds.
The total value of all Beyonder characteristics is: 154400 pounds!
Hobert suddenly felt like he was shipping goods. If this transaction was completed, all the paynts for the buildings in the territory would be covered, and there would still be enough left over to buy decoration materials.
