A new demigod is born, and as per previous practices, a banquet must be held.
This ti, Zhao Guang only materialized the banquet on the Delan Continent; after all, Borick is not his holand. At most, he just inford his allies there.
However, Zhao Guang did not expect that even though Lusis occupies only a small piece of land, the impact of this banquet was enormous.
Lusis is now particularly eager to tie itself closely to the Xuanwu Empire, even if only in na.
They have already fully realized how great the benefits are.
Therefore, with the Xuanwu Empire gaining a new demigod, they acted as if they themselves had gained one. For this, King Lusis even took out many treasures from his collection to make the banquet exceptionally grand.
Even during Lusis’s heyday, such a scale was a rare spectacle.
What was most unexpected was that many prominent figures attended the event.
Many borrowed the na of the Lusis Empire in hopes of having contact with us. Now, Lusis dares not offend anyone; after consulting Zhao Guang, they brought all these people.
"So, these people are here for Jeana?"
Xi Fei nodded: "Although Borick has never had a demigod in sacrificial aspect, they are aware of the Priest’s abilities. So have even studied demigod priest abilities before, so they seem to value it highly."
Even Zhao Guang did not expect that the ability they least valued would be so valued by the alliance.
But in hindsight, the scale of the current alliance warfare is exceedingly vast, involving not just high-level combat power.
The major influence cos not from these high-level combats, but from those at the lower levels, and even the civilians’ spontaneous resistance. Without these people, their frontline would have had to retreat further.
The current issue is that the more civilian casualties, the greater the change in the world’s laws.
The surrounding rules have already been distorted. In certain core areas, it’s feared that those below the legendary level can no longer fight normally. Even legendary strongn would be greatly affected in battle.
If this continues, will we have to rely on demigods to fight eventually?
With so many undead beings, how many can demigods slay? Perhaps not faster than the opposing world can produce them.
Moreover, once transford to a level where the opponent’s divine can intervene, it would truly be hopeless.
The temple is now hastily communicating with our divine, trying all ans to prepare. anwhile, the alliance is not idle either, constantly seeking ways to enhance the combat power of the ordinary troops.
Now that such an ability has erged, how can they not value it?
"So, should we tell them about Jeana’s ability?"
Zhao Guang thought for a mont and nodded, "Tell them, since it needs to be used internally in the Empire, such a thing can’t be kept from them." Indeed, once used inside the Empire, they aren’t blind.
Thus, Xi Fei imdiately contacted the people over there and relayed Jeana’s abilities, and the reply ca almost instantaneously.
"Master, they propose to establish Jeana’s totem on the frontline. To this end, even allowing so to have faith in Jeana is acceptable." With faith, the power within the totem can be proactively channeled.
Although the power remains the sa, its effectiveness would significantly improve.
As for Jeana herself, it’s impossible for her to go to the frontline; no one has ever heard of a priest going to battle on the front line.
Although Jeana previously perford well in the Land of Faith, no one would assu a priest is skilled in combat. If a priest is killed by the enemy, the loss to them is much more than a demigod’s combat power.
Their greatest fear is that the priest would be turned into an undead posthumously, potentially enhancing the opponent’s combat strength.
Zhao Guang was a bit stunned: "Allowing people to have faith in Jeana, that’s no small matter. If their divine blas us, we can’t withstand it." On the Borick Continent, the rules of faith are set by the divine.
"The temple says they can explain this to the divine, given that extraordinary tis call for extraordinary asures."
"I can’t trust them. Tell them they must provide conditions satisfactory enough for ."
Zhao Guang sneered, the temple’s promises were less trustworthy than a dog’s bark.
After all, anything can be blad on the divine.
Any action against the doctrine renders oaths invalid. If higher-ups in the temple or the divine oppose it, the oath also becos invalid. They’re highly skilled at these tactics.
Sure enough, there was a prolonged silence from the other side upon hearing Zhao Guang’s request.
Presumably, there was fierce arguing. When initially proposing these terms, they hadn’t considered the aftermath. As long as they won, the survival of others afterward mattered little.
Indeed, in their eyes, once the war ended, Jeana might still be seen as a significant threat.
The Soul Contract prevents any pulling towards Jeana, yet a demigod priest’s abilities are imnsely powerful.
This ability isn’t potent in self-combat power but in enhancing an entire faction’s power. If so sacrificial magic could be refined into divine arts, the effects could far surpass ordinary spells.
However, without waiting too long, the frontline situation truly grew increasingly dangerous.
"Master, the temple presented a condition, saying they can use the highest standard contract, witnessed by the divine themselves, ensuring no post-event troubles." Zhao Guang was taken aback by this.
He knew well that such a contract granted by the divine to the temple represented the divine’s stance.
The temple itself only had a very limited number of these, not to be used unless in crucial monts.
Unexpectedly, they brought it out now; it shows this ability is more significant than he had anticipated. Jeana hadn’t used it yet, so even he wasn’t sure of its potency, needing a reassessnt now.
"If so, then I agree, but the terms must be well-prepared for to review."
If they embedded traps within the terms, they could even avoid the contract’s restrictions.
In such matters, people in this world aren’t as familiar as he is, as Earth has refined contract traps to an extraordinary degree—many traps catch one off guard.
Against the temple, he must keep a contingency.
