You might as well just ask directly instead of beating around the bush.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian snorted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve lived for nearly two hundred years, is it so surprising that I would have some special collectibles?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And believe me, if I could wear this thing all the time without any side effects, then there would be very few people who could ever see my face again.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian’s translucent fingers gently brushed over the mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It originally belonged to a true Demigod, and although it’s on my face now, it doesn’t mean that the original owner’s consciousness has been completely eradicated.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“On the contrary, wearing it for too long in a short period might result in me being unconsciously eroded by that person’s will.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You all certainly wouldn’t want me to suddenly lash out at you without any warning, right?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And you, Marco.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian glanced at Bizarre Brother with a chilling look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Believe me, if that situation were to arise, I would turn you into a Puppet before completely losing control of my will.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, Fu Qian’s appearance coupled with the threats was undoubtedly a bit murderous, with an ideal level of intimidation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His old adversary Marco, after hearing this, somehow didn’t make a sound for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t worry, Ya Yu will soon find a way to cure the Godblood Curse.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the tense atmosphere, Veheler gave a light cough and took over the conversation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Will he personally cure me?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian asked bluntly, his tone revealing little expectation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We’ll have to confirm that with him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veheler shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Besides, the cure may not require his personal touch, don’t forget that the previous Godblood Curse was, after all, just a talisman.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not surprising.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian snorted coldly, making a cold comment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed indeed as Camus had said, this Ya Yu was truly a mysterious figure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even for the operation he organized, Veheler, who came off like a spokesperson, wasn’t sure he would appear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So how much longer do we need to wait for the others?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You can’t argue, Fu Qian directly shifted to another question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There’s no need.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Veheler’s answer came with certainty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No need?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marco was clearly shocked and interrupted with his question, it was apparent that this was the first time he had heard Veheler’s arrangement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t tell me that the people in this room are all the manpower we have?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He pointed at Fu Qian.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not to mention it’s uncertain whether this guy even has the ability to fight.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s not quite the case; I have already made arrangements for some of the personnel in advance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veheler smiled slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Today is mainly about waiting for the two of you, considering your strengths, for which I need to assign you specific missions.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, the situation with Camus is indeed unexpected, and I will find a way to solve it as soon as possible.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Our strengths… So, exactly how many Demigods will participate in this operation?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marco, not easily fooled, pressed on with the question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There will be two Demigods.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veheler hesitated slightly before directly answering his question.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re joking? Don’t tell me it’s just you and Ya Yu?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marco’s expression in that moment even borders on ferocious, his tone saturated with resistance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dunis’s side isn’t exactly friendly with the Night Watchman. Just their Chief Chelphus alone is already a Demigod, and there are several other near-Demigods to boot, not to mention that mysterious Demigod who injured Camus.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Under their vigilant watch, this is simply a suicide mission!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t be nervous.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veheler, eyeing the genuinely anxious Marco, gestured to the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Demigods indeed are me and Ya Yu, but we also have another helper…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Another helper…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Following the direction of Veheler’s gesture, Marco’s gaze shifted, and the next moment he spotted a tall figure draped in a cloak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the one who appeared silently, making his way to the trio, reached out and removed his hood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Platinum blonde hair, a majestic visage, with clear and pure eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turns out to be an acquaintance, Ariel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even a Divine Envoy has been brought in? The content of this operation really does raise one’s expectations!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian couldn’t help but click his tongue in admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Naturally, he had a deep impression of this person, who was the highest combat force he had encountered so far.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And considering his role as a tool for the Native Council, his appearance in such a situation wasn’t surprising.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although this one might have some issues with his mental state, his combat power is genuine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially his almost side effect-free ability to have a True God inhabit his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian remembered the sun that had appeared before his eyes at that time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ariel must have arrived early and just stayed there without coming out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luckily, as a professional, in order not to arouse suspicion, he promptly reigned in his perception upon entering and did not trigger any accidental reaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ariel!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now clearly recognizing the newcomer, Marco exclaimed in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a Second Phase legend, towering two whole dimensions above him, Marco’s own momentum immediately lowered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’m delighted to meet the two of you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ariel, still with that same confident and relaxed demeanor, smiled and greeted the two, Fu Qian included.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hello!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing the greeting of a Divine Envoy, Marco seemed somewhat flustered as he responded earnestly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hello…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The attitude of Fu Qian was markedly different from his, visibly perfunctory in his tone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It wasn’t a case of teenage rebellion, but rather that for someone who was seriously injured and on the brink of losing control, to appear too amiable would be abnormal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mr. Camus, I heard all of your earlier questions.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the face of Fu Qian’s greeting, Ariel’s expression remained constant, seemingly unperturbed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Unfortunately, due to my unsuitable power type, I am currently unable to assist.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No worries, I will continue to look forward to Mr. Veheler’s side then.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Pontiff’s Gifted Mask really does wonders!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fu Qian made polite conversation, but his thoughts were focused on something else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The question he was concerned about was whether Ariel could see through the mask’s cover and detect the true issue with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The proof showed that the effect of the mask was indeed powerful; even a higher First Phase Divine Envoy couldn’t spot anything amiss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So, what exactly is the purpose of our mission?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Ariel’s arrival, it was clear that Marco no longer doubted their combat strength.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at the same time, he quickly became aware of another problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An operation necessitating the participation of a Divine Envoy, and rallying as many hands as possible, seemed quite terrifying!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The purpose is simple!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Veheler turned his head to glance at Ariel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We are going to hunt Hamadus, the God of Hubbub.”\u003C\u002Fp>",1185,"2026-06-03T07:50:43.059Z","2026-06-03T07:50:47.187Z",1,"novelbin.me","343b0d0af3489eec4549e8d82c201022a2536ad0942e753a9802c46fc76fec85","facing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-chapter-585","facing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-chapter-583",2389,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Ffacing-an-ancient-god-for-a-year-cover.jpg"]
