Chapter 179: 178 Unimaginable Situation
“Have you been to the Divine World yet?”
Shane’s tone finally beca sowhat impatient.
Luoqi gave a bitter smile and nodded her head.
“Just like I said last ti, I used my connections to visit the Divine World and t with the Goddess of Fate.”
As Luoqi said this, her expression seed sowhat troubled.
Seeing Luoqi like this, Shane couldn’t help but grow concerned.
“What’s wrong?” Shane asked. “Did sothing happen?”
“No,” Luoqi shook her head, “It’s quite the opposite, actually.”
“The opposite?” Shane was slightly taken aback, puzzled. “What do you an?”
“It ans literally what it says.” Luoqi put down the dessert she was holding and looked Shane in the eyes. “Nothing at all has happened in the Divine World; it remains as peaceful and tranquil as ever, which is quite unbelievable.”
Why would she say that?
It was simple.
“Logically, the restart of the Hero Summoning should have been a big deal. Even if the news was blocked and didn’t spread to the Human Realm and the Demon Realm, there should have been so kind of anomaly in the Divine World.” Luoqi explained. “But what I found was that neither the Upper-level Gods nor the Lower-level Gods seed aware of the ritual being restarted nor the Hero being summoned, which surprised .”
“Is that so?” Shane, not entirely understanding, suggested, “Maybe the ritual was secretly restarted?”
“That’s highly unlikely,” Luoqi replied. “Because Hero Summoning is a large-scale cross-world ritual. Even the Goddesses cannot afford the massive amount of Magic Power needed to start the ritual. Hence, the Magic Power needed for the ritual is extracted directly from the world, utilizing the atmospheric and terrestrial Magic Power. Once this ritual is used, it is sure to cause a significant commotion. Secretly starting it is almost impossible.”
Given these facts, once the ritual was activated, regardless of other races, the Divine Race would definitely be aware of it.
“Moreover, as I’ve said before, to initiate the Hero Summoning, there are generally only three approaches: one is by the combined effort of the Three Great Goddesses, two is by gathering the Power of the Goddesses of the entire Divine Race, and three is only during a significant crisis could a single Goddess preside over the ritual, right?”
Luoqi pointed out the anomaly in the situation.
“According to these three thods, aside from the first scenario, in the other two, the Divine World as a whole couldn’t possibly remain this calm.”
“Even if we consider the first scenario, the Three Great Goddesses themselves should be aware of it. Yet, I also found the Goddess of Fate seed to be completely unaware of this matter.”
“Plus, when you were summoned, you were clearly received by only one Goddess, which doesn’t match the scenario of the Three Great Goddesses working together. The conditions don’t match up, making it all very perplexing.”
Listening to Luoqi’s explanation, Shane furrowed his brows in distress.
“So what is actually going on?”
Shane was truly puzzled.
“You’re asking , but I’m not clear on it either,” Luoqi admitted with a troubled expression. “I even tried to indirectly ask the Goddess of Fate and other mbers of the Divine Race for so intelligence, like whether there had been any anomalies in the Divine World recently, or if there were other unknown ways to initiate Hero Summoning. However, no matter how much I investigated, I only found out that the Divine World is currently very peaceful with no abnormalities, and there are only those three known thods to start the Hero Summoning unless the Supre God altered the ritual.”
“But a large-scale cross-world ritual like this can’t possibly be altered by the Supre God himself, can it?” Luoqi posed question after question. “Though the Supre God is an all-powerful entity, it does not an he can necessarily interfere with other worlds.”
“I’ve heard that the worlds the Heroes co from are independent concept worlds separate from Omni Potanssen. There are no mysteries there, nor can they be affected by them. Hero Summoning is possible mainly because the lives in the Otherworld that have the qualifications of a Hero are special and can be accepted by the mysterious forces, allowing them to be summoned through the ritual. Otherwise, even the Supre God couldn’t interfere with the lives of independent worlds.”
“In such a case, the fact that the Supre God left three thods to start the ritual is already a sort of limit. It’s hard to imagine there being a fourth way.”
“But that ans your situation doesn’t correspond with any of the three thods ntioned.”
“This is really strange.”
Luoqi seed to have been troubled by this for quite so ti.
“In an attempt to uncover the truth, I even asked the Goddess of Fate if I could take a look at the Hero Summoning ritual stored in the Divine World.” Luoqi continued: “But the Goddess of Fate said that the Temple engraved with the ritual has been in deep sleep at the very edge of the Divine World, protected by a Barrier set by the Supre God himself. It’s considered abandoned and will not be used again. Nowadays, no life, apart from the Supre God, can cross that Barrier to enter.”
In other words, no matter how one looked at it, the Hero Summoning couldn’t possibly have been initiated, much less actually started.
“Then I…”
Shane’s expression grew complex.
“Your situation has really beco full of mysteries,” Luoqi whispered. “At least with the current circumstances, there might be a deeper backstory to your summoning. A backstory that even the Three Great Goddesses haven’t touched upon, there is only one possibility…”
Luoqi stopped there, not continuing.
But Shane knew what she wanted to say.
“The only possibility is that it involves the level of the Supre God, right?”
Shane revealed what Luoqi had left unsaid.
“That’s what I’m thinking,” Luoqi didn’t deny it. “Of course, I also asked the Goddess of Fate if I could et the Supre God, but as ntioned before, I was rejected outright. Afterward, I tried to inquire about a Goddess nad Nien, but again, I found nothing.”
In other words, Nien was indeed a pseudonym; there was no Goddess with that na.
“There are just too many mysteries, and I dared not tell the Goddess of Fate or the rest of the Divine Race about your situation as it is. I’m worried it might lead to so irreversible disturbance.” Luoqi pursed her lips, “In the end, all I could do was find a few ancient books on Heroes and Hero Summoning in the great library of the Divine World. But there wasn’t much secret within; mostly things we already know.”
As she said this, Luoqi pulled out several books and placed them in front of Shane.
“I’ve brought the books back, just in case you’re interested. You can take them and have a look.”
This was all that Luoqi had managed to find.
“Thanks.”
Though Shane was a bit disappointed, he didn’t complain and sincerely thanked her before taking the books.
After all, Luoqi had done everything she could; there was no reason to complain, and she had fulfilled her obligations.
However, this ant that instead of solving any mysteries, there were now even more.
