Capítulo 1043: Chapter 1043: The Gradually Divine divh
Raising an underage Crow God is truly a laborious task, Anwina definitely feels this profoundly. Crow God divh is evolving in a rather peculiar way, with its various attributes severely unbalanced. That bird has the personality of a five-year-old but can learn to search the Dalaran Magic Encyclopedia online, it’s quite savage — I didn’t even know how to crack sunflower seeds when I was five…
Anwina feels that soday she’ll successfully grasp divh’s growth patterns, but definitely not these days, as we can’t even find a single feather of divh now. Until that night, all the search teams ca up empty-handed, only finding already bird-flown energy-active spots. Monitoring satellites are continually scanning the globe, yielding chaotic energy distribution maps, drawing ssy lines on the world map that show divh’s flight path: starting from Hebei, circling in the Middle East, then heading straight to Antarctica, then detouring to North Arica, then entering South Africa, and appearing in Australia, jumping near Okinawa, onto Northern Europe, and next to Chile… Let tell you, this route map is even more convoluted than Qianqian’s mind, the only rule I deduced is that there is absolutely no rule.
The only certainty is from Beijing Ti noon today onwards, no new Alien Energy response appeared on Earth, divh’s presence completely vanished from all satellite imagery, leaving only gradually cooling energy hotspots on Earth.
“Could it have already flown to an alien planet?” I murmured while looking at the holographic projection before .
It’s now half-past ten at night, the whole family hasn’t slept, of course, except for the Pandora sisters, the kids have been coaxed and dragged off to bed by Big Sister. We feel that the crow is really quite rambunctious, especially after eating Dingdang’s leaf, it seems like it’s on a stimulant. Anwina sat beside , glooming, with flickering radiance over her whole body. Since bringing her ho, it’s the first ti I’ve seen this always-smiling Little Ghost looking so saddened. divh ans a lot to her, that’s the one she watched being born and has been feeding bit by bit to this size, pouring in extraordinary care and emotion, equivalent to a child you could say. Seeing the Little Ghost so downcast, I feel the need to comfort her with a few words: “Well, even if it’s flown to an alien planet, it’s no problem, we just have to expand the search range; you wouldn’t think such a big Empire couldn’t even find a bird right?”
Anwina lowered her head even more dejectedly: “But it’s so small, the Universe is so big…”
Oh dear, I shouldn’t have ntioned flying to alien planets! Considering Anwina’s habits, she would never think of outer space…
I thought for a mont, accessed Spiritual Connection, and found Lin Xue: “Hey, girl, are you asleep?”
Lin Xue had already gone ho by then. Although for various reasons, that girl successfully convinced her parents to adopt a free-range policy, she still has to go ho at night except in special circumstances: Mr. Lin isn’t audaciously absent-minded. At this ti to find her, naturally, you can only use Spiritual Connection. Now the ti is nearly eleven o’clock, and Lin Xue claims to have good habits of a sunshine girl, but ignore the “sunshine girl” part, the core idea is not to disturb her after ten at night because she wants to sleep, but it seems I’ve never taken this seriously.
“Would you believe if I said I’m asleep?” Lin Xue’s voice suddenly sounded in my mind, “So boring, Old Master talked to , ntioned matters regarding you and , he insists that the two of us should find a lucky day in a couple of years, even if it belongs to a Dark World’s underground wedding you must marry openly…” I broke out in a cold sweat, “And what did you say?”
Lin Xue spoke lazily: “I said you’ve already had your fill of , let Old Master decide what to do, whether to lead the entire Superpower Team to storm the headquarters of Boundless Love, then he made do two hours of strategic deploynt…” I realized the girl started rambling, but still followed her lead: “Oh, and how did you quell this interstellar war?”
Lin Xue’s voice sounded particularly haughty: “Rember back when Olympus almost infiltrated the Moon Base? Old Master knows about that, so I directly stated that Boundless Love’s office is on the moon, the headquarters is in Mars’ Southern Hemisphere, recently Curiosity landed on Mars and almost uncovered Boundless Love’s base, thanks to you getting two people to shade a TV in front of Curiosity’s cara to bypass that… Yawn… So, why did you find ? Not just to hear ramble, right?”
This really doesn’t sound like it’s coming from a young lady of a wealthy family, but considering Lin Xue was dragged to work for the Superpower Team by her family’s Old Master from years ago, wild all over, I won’t fuss about it.
“divh might not be on Earth,” I quickly shared the latest speculation with Lin Xue, “It’s nowhere to be found worldwide.”
Lin Xue paused for a while, then suddenly said: “I can only see it ultimately returning ho unhard, you’re fated not to find it. Tell Anwina not to worry, divh won’t get into trouble, it’s now hidden in a very safe place, I can’t see where but it’s surrounded by mist and deserted, it’s undergoing a transformation there… hmm, quite a big one.” “Ah?”
I had more to ask, but Lin Xue didn’t seem willing to explain further: she has this habit, she shares as little as possible about predictions to avoid future changes, in the end, she confird one thing, the crow that went wild outside for two days and nights will return ho by itself in a few days, intact, unhard, its running away didn’t cause rivers of blood or calamities, everything’s peaceful, congratulations — the only unfortunate is we busied ourselves for a whole day, and I let Sicaro go free…
However, after hanging up the Spiritual Connection, I still felt sothing’s not right, is this thing ending so simply? Moreover, the more concerning thing is Lin Xue’s mysterious tone when she said divh’s about to co ho, based on my understanding of her, this indicates that the situation will beco dramatic…
I looked around and found everyone gazing at expectantly, so I shrugged: “Lin Xue said divh will return by itself in a few days, there’s no major incident, just a farce.”
I repeated Lin Xue’s words verbatim, especially comforting Anwina, who finally felt less dejected, while everyone expressed quite disappointed after hearing and dispersed. However, Qianqian stayed last, hopping over after everyone went to rest, quietly asking: “Ah Jun, Ah Jun, just now I heard Lin Xue ntion the good day thing too…”
I suddenly got a headache: turns out Qianqian was eavesdropping on my and Lin Xue’s Spiritual Connection?
“Yes, ntioned the good day, her grandfather even did two hours of strategic deploynt planning to crusade against .”
Qianqian poked my waist with an evil grin: “I see what happens when my dad drills you — I’ll tell you sothing, my dad knows a bit about you… not much, definitely unknown outside Earth, he imagined quite a bit within Earth…”
I looked at Qianqian extrely alard, she chuckled and waved: “Did you forget? You and a group of ‘Superpower People’ got my dad out of the ruins when he saw quite a bit, he’s long known you weren’t normal. But I didn’t tell him, he’s imagining himself now. Besides, he also knows there’s Sandora by your side, don’t forget you two were public figures a few years ago, although Sandora later used her Ability to reverse the cognition of those people again, those who should rember this event still do, including my dad.”
I thought about it, seriously looking at Qianqian: “Shall we elope then…”
“Aren’t we already eloping?” Qianqian asked curiously.
: “…Alright, so what’s your dad’s take on this? Is he at ho making weapons of mass destruction or sothing? Then fate steps in, and he ets Mr. Lin for a historic encounter, and they beco quick old pals, and together they muster an alliance army to take down…”
I suddenly felt that, compared to world peace, the current situation was just as troubleso. I had three girls with , and I could swear to anything, Void included, that the feelings between us were genuine: they were forged in the fires of life. For four years, we’ve faced wars, disasters, and doomsday together, sharing life and death in any perilous situation. Qianqian and Lin Xue had never left Earth before, yet recklessly followed to dangerous Otherworld battlefields ti and ti again. No matter how much mischief they cause, you can’t deny that our family is fundantally an epic tale. Going through four years of trials and seemingly endless years ahead, it’s an unquestionable bond. However, the problem is…both sides have parents, and they don’t know…
Among the three, Sandora wasn’t much of an issue, since Queen’s situation was special — she simply didn’t care for human rules. Lin Xue was simple too, as she had a rugged grandfather. The Old Master had seen the “colorful” world many tis in his life, and after quite a few rounds of Boundless Love, he had tacitly approved of my relationship with Lin Xue. So it seed like Qianqian’s dad was the real chasm to cross…
I suddenly recalled sothing: theoretically speaking, Qianqian’s dad was definitely my nesis. The old man excelled at digging up the graves of emperors and generals, having done it all his life, whereas I sowhat considered myself akin to an emperor or general…
Suddenly, I felt proud to be a Void Creature: because I had no ancestral graves…
“Actually, I have discussed this a few tis with my dad,” Qianqian scratched her head. “We’ve been together since we were kids. My dad watched you grow up, knows about us and your character. But suddenly, you show up with a bunch of ‘superpowers’ and have all these strange people around you, he’s a bit confused. Yet, he can tell if his daughter is happy or not, so he’s not taking action for now. But he did say he wants to use ti to test everything, and if I’m unhappy, he’ll imdiately co to our door. His exact words were: temporarily keeping quiet for my daughter’s happiness and coming over soday for my daughter’s happiness. My dad’s actually quite carefree, and he’ll definitely co over wielding a kitchen knife to chop you when the ti cos… Oh, by the way, we’ve got a set of bronze blades and swords at ho — my dad crafted them himself according to Western Zhou specifications. He might bring those over then.”
I wiped the cold sweat off my forehead, thinking that grave diggers were truly formidable. I never realized Uncle Xu had such a straightforward side.
“Anyway, no matter what the test is, I’ll accept it, as long as the old man doesn’t hit with a stick,” I shrugged, hugging Qianqian, “We’ve walked through the Abyss together. I won’t let go.”
Qianqian didn’t seem to care at all: “It’s okay, it’s okay. I understand my dad. For now, I’ll just bluff him. After enough ti passes, you’ll see, the situation will resolve itself…”
“What do you an?”
Qianqian chuckled: “If, seventy or eighty years later, my dad finds himself still bouncing around digging up ancestral graves, even the slowest person would realize sothing’s off, right? Then, I’ll give him a big surprise…”
I looked at Qianqian utterly speechless, thinking, who else on Earth is as brainless as you? Seventy or eighty years later indeed.
But this matter did deserve so serious thought. I did kidnap their daughter, so there has to be an explanation. Uncle Xu did trust with Qianqian, of course, I’m not sure if he still does now…
“Well, apart from being with Ah Jun, there aren’t any other options, right?” Qianqian pinched my chin, moving restlessly, “My dad has to understand, there’s no other potential son-in-law in this world. Once he understands everything, he will agree to us being together. The rest is up to us; you need to behave well, and I’ll handle my dad. Plus, as Xiao Xue said, we’re already a family, and we even have a kid, a cooked al that’s beyond well-done…”
How should I say it, raising a naughty kid like Qianqian, Uncle Xu sure has a tough job. I’ve never seen soone so enthusiastic about plotting against her own father…
Before long, a week passed. Our bird-searching task continued, but Lin Xue’s prediction had already indicated progress. divh was hiding in a corner unknown to anyone, and the Imperial soldiers sent out returned without any success: they almost explored the entire Gutenberg Plane in a week.
The biggest progress was made by the European group led by Sicaro, the main force. They found so “divine artifacts” left by divh in the European mountains, which were clearly enchanted items. The power emitted by divh had activated ancient armors and swords buried beneath an ancient battlefield for hundreds of years in the local area, causing a geological shift that brought these swords back to light during an earthquake.
The incident began like this: a local farr checked his well on the highland after a minor earthquake and accidentally found a knight’s double-handed sword lodged in a stone. Astonishingly, it was light as a feather and had so mystic connection with the rock and earth. When the double-handed sword was vertically thrust into the boulder, it seamlessly rged with the stone! Such a mystic ancient weapon brought many associations to the rather superstitious mountain residents. By the ti the Imperial soldiers arrived, the old farr had already gathered a group of locals, claiming that he was King Arthur in his past life and had found the Sword in the Stone under destiny’s guidance, intending to reassemble his Round Table Knights… Later, the sixty-eight-year-old King Arthur holding the “Holy Sword” was decisively suppressed by the arriving Altoria and had his mory erased by the Imperial soldiers.
The mutated swords are now stored at the research center, where a group is specifically studying divh’s divine phenonon and its derived theories. They aim to use information disturbance theory to build a mathematical model centered on that accurately describes the Xyrin Divine System’s promotion process. These swords have convinced the experts that divh’s divinization has begun, and it’s spreading his power towards another springboard: this is a typical power anterior phase. Furthermore, the experts were pleased to discover no Life Goddess power residue on the mutated swords, indicating that Dingdang’s blade might have rely served as a catalyst in the process, with divh generating the suspected “divine power” internally.
Bingdisi advised us to preserve those swords properly after completing the research. If divh indeed erges as the Crow God, these scraps will be the first divine artifacts to accompany the birth of the Crow God. Their power would grow with divh’s, potentially becoming national treasures for so Crow God-worshipping mortal tribes in the future…
Lilina, based on her experience acting as Archbishop for Dingdang, fabricated a set of myths about these swords: once, the Crow God divh, upon becoming divine, shed all his mortal sins, including the most potent negative forces like “brutality, destruction, and slaughter.” Therefore, the Crow God sealed these forces within his own seven feathers and plucked them out. These seven feathers fell to earth and transford into weapons, forming the seven divine swords. Given that the Crow God sealed his original sin, they carried the sacred significance of “Sin Slash.” The seven swords were thus nad “Blade of Sin Severing,” later gifted by the Crow God to mortals, commanding believers to rember the noble act of divinity severing its own sins, to continually examine themselves, and use the swords to purify the heretics’ evil thoughts…
See, that’s professionalism. Lilina seed born to con people. When a bird goes crazy and digs out seven rusted ancient iron swords from the ground, she polishes them up brilliantly.
However, Bingdisi praised Lilina for her fabrication and strongly recomnded that I jot down the story. When divh grows up, let that bird develop followers according to this script, aiming for the Xyrin Divine System to beco a legend starting from “severing its own sins” in all realms.
Bingdisi explained, “Rember, the essence of myth stories is baloney. When God created Genesis, the main idea was rely aesthetics. Normally saying ‘let there be light’ is primarily to see clearly in the dark — who knows how low the starting point of God’s endeavor might be! Thus, the author of ‘miracles’ is never God — writing this ourselves would be chilling.”
This is the original version of the first miracle from the “Crow God’s Ten Miracles” legend… (To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to cast a vote on qidian; your support is my greatest motivation.)
