Free Web NovelChapter 1772: Chapter 1193: I Draw Only One Sword
The identity of "Heaven Hunt" wasn’t clear, but as the holy emissary of the temple, Charity was well aware of the identities of the other holy emissaries.
According to her, "Mighty Weapon" is the strategic-level construction mage from Leiblu Kingdom, while "Tyrant" and "Ba Serpent" are also from Leiblu Kingdom, the nation that views war as a daily occurrence, and they are Sword Saints of that country.
As one of the two strategic-level magicians in Leiblu Kingdom, "Mighty Weapon" used his status as a construction mage to promise great benefits to the nation’s two Sword Saints, ultimately bringing them into the temple.
Many construction mages practice alchemy magic, allowing them to create various magical items or weapons. A strategic-level construction mage like "Mighty Weapon" can even create modern secret treasures with power second only to the Ancient Secret Treasure. With this ability, along with the temple’s support, he possesses cutting-edge magic technology like creating magical dolls, making it quite easy to recruit a few Sword Saints.
If not for the fear of exposing the temple’s existence, "Mighty Weapon" could have recruited at least two or three more Sword Saint-level figures by acting overtly.
Due to this, "Mighty Weapon" holds a very high position within the temple, second only in importance to the leader "Heaven Hunt," with a lot of the temple’s magic technology revival and usage under his charge, making even "Heaven Hunt" pay a great deal of attention to him.
Perhaps because of this, "Mighty Weapon" became the only person in the temple who knows the leader’s true identity. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
In contrast, "Fire Princess" is more responsible for managing various affairs within the temple.
If "Mighty Weapon" can be likened to a technical director within the force, then the role of "Fire Princess" is akin to a manager.
Regarding the leader "Heaven Hunt," it’s natural that they are responsible for strategic direction and overseeing the formulation and issuance of policies.
Compared to these three, the positions of the other four holy emissaries indeed seem like mere high-ranking enforcers, tasked solely with executing the orders from above.
Whether like Charity, exploring ancient relics and seeking technological crystals, or like "Kilowatt," gathering materials to make magic dolls, they’re all directives from above.
Unfortunately, when Reiger asked about the true identity of "Fire Princess," Charity was unwilling to reveal anything.
"In other regards, no matter what you ask, I’ll tell you, but not about ’Fire Princess.’"
Charity’s attitude was resolute.
She even said something to Reiger that left him a bit startled.
"Regarding ’Fire Princess’ identity, you shouldn’t ask me, but rather your old flame."
After saying this, Charity was unwilling to mention "Fire Princess" again. frёeωebɳovel.com
This left Reiger with a furrowed brow.
Seeing Charity’s exceptionally firm stance, Reiger knew that even if he were to kill her, this cold martial goddess likely wouldn’t reveal anything.
Moreover, if he forcibly tried to capture her to search her memory or use [Curse] to coerce her, she might very likely commit suicide on the spot.
"Forget it."
Reiger temporarily decided to set aside the matter and moved on to another question.
"What is the Abyssal Aura about? Why are you able to manipulate and even possess Abyssal Aura?"
Reiger’s inquiry received only a vague response.
"Abyssal Aura was brought by ’Tyrant’ and ’Ba Serpent.’" Charity explained: "Those two said ’Mighty Weapon’ gave it to them to bring here."
"Regarding Abyssal Aura, I also don’t know much, just that even ’Fire Princess’ won’t approach that thing."
"Only ’Heaven Hunt’ and ’Mighty Weapon’ continue to come into contact with Abyssal Aura."
After thinking for a moment, Charity continued.
"I can tell you one thing, which is that Abyssal Aura can be used not just like this time to create infectors by release, making throngs of minions who frenziedly attack everyone, but also as material for many kinds of forbidden magic technologies."
"Whether it’s magic dolls or all holy artifacts within the temple, Abyssal Aura is used during their production."
"This doesn’t seem like technology left over from the Ancient Magic Civilization Period, but rather something ’Mighty Weapon’ himself has refined, adjusted through his research and use of various magic technologies, resulting in this outcome."
"Thus ’Mighty Weapon’ is very obsessed with Abyssal Aura, even considering it a versatile magic material capable of altering the landscape of modern magic technology, and ’Heaven Hunt’ supports him in doing this."
Hearing Charity’s explanation, Reiger’s mind was suddenly invigorated.
At this moment, he recalled many things.
For instance, the eerie energy that magical dolls utilize in combat.
For instance, the so-called holy artifacts also containing that eerie energy.
Furthermore, when the mad dog prince used the so-called holy artifact to control others, turning them into uncontrollable berserkers, the appearance of those berserk individuals.
The most prominent characteristic of those people was their eyes, which appeared entirely blackened, including the whites, turning pitch black.
