Chapter 32: Second Artifact:
The Fifth Floor of the Endless Tower, Temple of the Sun God.
Butler Shitou held up the artifact and walked slowly towards the pillar of light with the divine seal suspended in the center of the altar.
When Li Yuan and the others came back with the "Blessing of Innocuity", Shitou immediately appeared in the tower to greet them and congratulated them on their success in bringing back the artifact attached to divinity.
According to Shi Shi's explanation, as long as it enters the range of the Watcher, the Endless Tower can sense its lost divinity.
This is naturally good news for Li Yuan. The repair progress of the Endless Tower can be improved as a result, and the gold coin spent seems to be less painful.
As soon as "Innocuous Blessing" approached the light pillar, a shimmering energy body began to be extracted from the relief in the center of the shield, and then absorbed by the divine seal suspended in the light pillar.
Then, the dim divine seal began to flicker, and by the time the entire absorbing process was over, the divine seal had begun to glow continuously, although the light was not very strong.
"My lord." Shitou suddenly turned to Li Yuan.
Li Yuan understood what he meant, which was to ask him to confirm the contents of the permission letter.
He also vaguely felt some kind of change, and immediately summoned the permission letter in his consciousness.
On the page showing the progress, he looked at the roulette-like magic circle, and the red part increased a little.
At the same time, the number at the bottom also began to change, increasing from 6/100 to 10/100.
A full 4% increase!
Although there is no obvious feeling yet, his body should have grown a lot with the increase in progress.
Li Yuan turned the book to the page that recorded the hymn to the Sun God, and found that among the lines of ink, the two lines in the middle began to become complete, and legible words emerged: "It has the power to control
,
Grant us the protection of no harm.”
There are two lines in the content of the hymn that can give him [Blessing]. From the ink marks, it seems that the hymn has six lines in total.
"My lord, what should I do with this minor artifact?" Shitou suddenly asked him for instructions.
"Second artifact?" Li Yuan was a little surprised.
He had always thought that after returning its power, the artifact would turn back into an ordinary object.
He looked at the shield carefully again and saw some clues.
As a long-standing antique, this shield itself has a very high collection value. But the red dragon's valuation intuition told him that this shield also contained hidden value beyond its physical existence.
In other words, the shield still has power.
Shitou saw his doubts and began to explain:
"It's like this. Ordinary items cannot contain divinity. Only containers that have the qualifications to become artifacts can contain divinity, and most of these containers have Have divine power."
"In other words?"
"There is a high possibility that they were artifacts or sub-artifacts at the beginning, but after taking in the divinity of the Endless Tower, they were upgraded to high-level artifacts." Shitou answered.
"So after peeling off the parts that belong to the Endless Tower, it is still an artifact." Li Yuan understood.
"Yes, like this shield, if my identification is correct, it should be a sub-artifact made by a strong person from the Sun God's realm." Shitou said.
Secondary artifacts are props and equipment with weak divine power created by powerful men in the divine realm.
Although there is still a gap between it and the real creation of the gods, it is still quite powerful as a magical weapon.
"What a nice collection." Li Yuan smiled happily when he heard this.
A sub-artifact with a long history, it is enough to become a collection at the bottom of his treasure house.
"Didn't you say you wanted to borrow it before?" Zhenna reminded him softly from behind.
Li Yuan remembered that he had indeed said that, but now he really had no idea of returning it at all: "The fact that I am a red dragon has been exposed, and it is not convenient to return it, so let's leave it here for now." He
suddenly Thinking of something else, he asked Zhenna: "Are you capable of using this kind of sub-artifact?"
Before Zhenna could answer, Shitou spoke: "Miss Zhenna is a master-level paladin. She should be able to withstand it." She has the power of the artifact, and if she stays in this temple, she will grow up soon." "
Then I will lend this thing to you temporarily." Li Yuan took the shield from the stone and handed it to Zhen Na.
This sub-artifact that can only be used in human form is actually not of much use to him, but it should be able to improve Zhenna's combat effectiveness.
"Ganoen..." Zhenna looked at Li Yuan blankly.
"You're welcome, you can use it first." Li Yuan "generously" pushed the secondary artifact to Zhenna.
But logically, this is not yours, Zhenna said in her heart.
When Ganon said "borrow", Zhenna knew that this red dragon had naturally regarded this thing as its own.
"Okay." She sighed and took the artifact without saying anything else.
She had actually thought from the beginning that once the artifact entered the red dragon's lair, it would almost certainly be possessed by the other party.
"The war may start at any time in the future. Now that the injury has improved, just make some preparations." Li Yuan reminded Zhenna.
"I know." Zhenna nodded.
"My lord, if you need to prepare for battle, do you want me to reduce the operating power to save magic power?" Shitou asked for instructions.
"Save magic power? What's the point of doing that?" Li Yuan asked.
"The Endless Tower will continue to draw some power from you and Miss Zhenna to maintain the operation of corresponding power and achieve a basic balance of payments. If you choose to reduce the operating power, you can speed up the efficiency of the Endless Tower in accumulating magic reserves. Next During a battle, the Endless Tower can provide stronger defensive power." Shitou replied.
"Then what kind of defensive function can this tower provide now?" Li Yuan asked.
"If I have enough magic power, I can increase my number to three in a short time. I can use conventional weapons and know some riding skills. In addition, I can also drive the magic circle in the Sun Temple and use larger-scale Holy light spell." Shitou replied.
"It finally sounds more decent than before." Li Yuan nodded and instructed Shi Shi, "Then reduce the operating power and save magic power for the battle." "Yes,
my lord." Shi Shi saluted, and then his body suddenly peeled off. Lots of gravel.
The gravel was absorbed by the floor in the blink of an eye, and the size of the stone changed again to the size of half a person's height.
"I'm going to leave for a while now and come back before dinner." After Li Yuan finished speaking, he walked directly to the stairwell.
All the instructions have been given, and now he wants to confirm the power he has obtained.
He did not go downstairs, but walked directly upstairs, and finally came to the broken sixth floor, which is currently the actual top of the Endless Tower.
He turned into a dragon here, and then began to invoke the authority of [Blessing] in his consciousness.
"His power in charge of protection has given us the protection of no harm."
The only hymn currently existing in the authority book suddenly appeared in his mind.
After reading this poem, this idea naturally emerged in his heart.
"The power of its guardianship has given us the protection of no harm." He followed the guidance in his heart and read it again in the unknown language recorded in the book.
As soon as he finished speaking, a wave of heat suddenly poured into his body, and the scales on his body suddenly began to emit dazzling holy light.
