Chapter 796: Chapter 555 The Forbidden Knowledge that Causes “God” to Lose Control. _2
As for which Virtue it was, he had used it for so long that there was no need to go into detail…
Colin nodded, not surprised by this.
The materials that could beco part of the Golden Artifact were mostly at the level of a First Level Containnt Subject.
And that ancient legend of the “King of Knights” was a terrifying force unto himself, combining the eight “Virtues,” his strength even surpassing many First Level Containnt Subjects—that part of the story was told to Colin by the King of Savage Sound.
In other words, he or she was on par with a god.
Moreover, because he was able to understand the notes on the artifact, he had a clearer understanding of many details than Shana did, knowing that the artifact was supposedly handcrafted by the enigmatic “Mister Huang He”…
“And the reason I want you to take this away is sowhat related to the current ‘King’ of The Kingdom of Knights, he harbors the desire to beco a ‘True God’ once again and has planned so things that involve the use of this Shield Emblem…”
“But… I don’t think he’s worthy.”
Shana gave a negative assessnt of today’s “King”: “He has so plans, which I don’t quite approve of, so I’ve always wanted to find the right opportunity to discard the shield, but I never had the chance, until you showed up…”
Upon hearing this, Colin suddenly understood why the “Shield of Fairness Adjudication” noted that using it more than once in “World Code-13” would attract certain beings…
Turns out, that’s the reason—using it too much would likely summon that certain soone from The Kingdom of Knights…
No—on second thought, based on the descriptions, it would summon the actual “King of Knights”!
“What’s the situation with that forr ‘King of Knights’?” Colin asked curiously.
“His situation is very unclear; rumors suggest he fell in a distant past even earlier than the ‘Holy Light Court,’ but there are forbidden texts that indicate he also left traces of activity during the disasters caused by the ‘Holy Light Court’…”
“There are many doubts about him, but that’s not too strange, after all, such beings are very difficult to completely extinguish without specific asures…”
Shana casually ntioned the extrely “heretical” information insider The Kingdom of Knights.
Such words could only be shared with mbers of the “Bonfire Company” like Colin.
Even though the successive “Light” Saints destroyed the “Holy Light Court” with the hope of liberating the mysteries, the overall situation is still not great up to now.
As Colin listened to Shana’s words, he put away the “Shield of Fairness Adjudication” and couldn’t help but think to himself, ‘In a world where gods truly exist, unless it’s like the Lady of Thorns where a True God leads a rebellion, so things are indeed difficult to break…’
“Additionally…”
Shana changed the topic and lifted the Bone Spur wrapped in white silk:
“This Holy Remains has so potential that has not yet been shown; it might also be useful.”
As she spoke, Shana seed to have made a decision, picked up the Bone Spur, and weak strands of pure white light began to flow from her hand into the Bone Spur, with mysterious glowing patterns moving on it as if so restrictions were being lifted…
“Saintess Krixis once said: ‘Those who light the way for others should also be bathed in light themselves.’
Shana placed the Bone Spur with so of its restrictions lifted in front of her: “I think, if it really cos to that mont, she might not ignore your plight…”
“Lighting the way for others? That’s a bit too much praise for ; I just don’t want my ho to be stolen…” Colin pursed his lips.
He couldn’t quite articulate his thoughts, but whatever the reason…
He didn’t want to and couldn’t leave!
Colin had a premonition that if he failed to protect his ho this ti, no matter where he fled to, the outco wouldn’t be favorable.
And it might involve his friends and so on…
Because as a “Flabearer” Reserves, his location had been exposed.
Moreover, there were too many people back ho, and no matter how much preparation was done, so would inevitably be neglected, and if he, a key combatant, left, the
situation might beco extrely dire.
Although Colin never thought that he could stir great upheavals on his own, what if—just what if saving the world was missing just him?
Seeing Colin’s “stubbornness,” Shana shook her head slightly, a tender smile spreading across her face. She reached out and took his hand, which was larger than hers, and placed the tip of the Bone Spur in his palm, not continuing this futile conversation with Colin:
“If you ever need , just call, and no matter what, I’ll co to help you.”
The fair-skinned hands were soft, making it hard to believe that those hands had killed many people, as well as a large number of living anomalies.
“…” Colin opened his mouth but ultimately didn’t say much, choosing to accept the gesture and nodding in acknowledgnt.
“Then, as for this artifact, should you need it, it can unleash half of, um, according to the description, a First Level Containnt Subject of the natural phenonon type. It’s in an uncontrollable state, and you can briefly manipulate it to confront your enemy. However, you need to be careful of the timing of its use, or it could harm you…”
“Half?” Colin noted the term.
Shana nodded lightly, explaining, “The being that is bound within was said to be a True God once worshipped by a now-extinct church in ancient tis,
“Back then, it seems it beca uncontrollable due to engagent with so forbidden knowledge possibly related to ‘Divinity’ while combating the ‘Holy Light Court,’ or for so other reason, and turned into ‘Rain of Filth’…
“Eventually, it was sealed by the ‘Holy Light Court,’ but it broke free centuries ago, corrupting many creatures. It was subdued along with the ‘Light’ Saint, Saintess Krixis, in a sacrifice-based sealing… That’s all the information I could gather about it.”
“Forbidden knowledge that could cause a god to lose control of ‘Divinity’?” Colin was startled.
What had it done? Had it not been peeking at the true nature of the ‘Night’ or the ‘Red Moon’?
Otherwise, Colin really didn’t know of any other forbidden knowledge that could cause a First Level Containnt Subject to go out of control…
“I don’t know either…” Shana bit her lip, shaking her head.
Saints usually keep to themselves, and the information they retain is usually brief; she only knew so general life stories.
“Alright.” Holding the Bone Spur, Colin could indeed feel that with just a thought from him,
a terrifying existence would erge from it…
If there were no strange hidden details within, then it was very likely that ‘True God’ that had seen sothing unclean.
For a short ti, he could achieve a certain and brief guidance… but couldn’t do much.
It could be considered a ‘last resort’ in the general sense…
But also a clear double-edged sword, because if not used well, it would unleash a catastrophe.
“Thank you…” Once Colin roughly grasped the essence of the content, he sincerely expressed his thanks.
Shana raised her hand to adjust a stray lock of hair, tilting her head slightly, “You seem to still have two days left in your descent this ti, right?”
“Yes.”
“Oh…” Shana nodded thoughtfully, not saying much more.
anwhile, Colin looked towards the other side of the great hall, to the figure who was sweeping in the distance, all the while pricking up his ears and sneaking glances over here: “Little Red, co here, stop pretending to sweep…”
The entire great hall was illuminated by the bonfire, usually not even a mote of dust to be seen.
“Oh.” Little Red quickly stepped forward, placing the broom back in its place properly, and then scurried over with her short legs.
Compared to several months ago, when she was first plucked from the refugees, Little Red obviously looked much better, her face no longer dirty and covered with new and old wrinkled wounds. Now, she wore a black dress with a scattered floral pattern, her black hair neatly combed by Shana, her clean and tidy face young and vibrant, and in her pure black eyes shimred a spirited luster.
As the little girl with rare pure black hair and eyes in this world approached, Colin reached out to vigorously rub her head:
“Is there sothing you want to say?”
Seeing the hint of red flickering in and out of the girl’s eyes, Colin knew she probably had sothing to say.
The young girl, until now, whenever she had sothing on her mind or a noticeable shift in her emotions, would have a slight color change in her eyes, her thoughts relatively easy to guess.
Of course, she now had much better control than before; she was no longer as dangerous as she used to be.
…
…
Wait, there is another chapter.
