Chapter 32: Huge Profit

"I said it's not enough!" Chumen repeated once more, "This is also the will of the Lord."

This might be the only chance to extort them openly; it must be seized!

Hum! A faint light shone from the statue, gradually condensing into the shape of a stone tablet, but a thick shadow remained upon the tablet.

This was the Ancient Sun God's stance.

Oumibeila and Badehaier both stiffened, sensing the will of the True God.

"This is the 'Twilight Path', notarized by the power of the Lord!" Chumen held the stone tablet and looked at Oumibeila, "Let the shadow disperse, and it will be yours."

"..." Oumibeila could no longer remain calm; the aura of life leaked out, even causing wheat and green grass to grow in the cracks of the cathedral floor, a patch of greenery.

Badehaier was also restless, the thing he craved was right before his eyes, and the Giant was more inclined to snatch it...

But the deity was watching this place.

"... Fine! Take them all out." In the end, Oumibeila relented and said to Badehaier.

Badehaier still wanted to say something, but under the gaze of Oumibeila and the God, he had no choice but to take out the remaining Characteristics.

They were all Magical Items condensed from the corresponding Characteristics of Saints and Sequence 2 Angels.

The two highest among them were the Sequence 2 "Duke of Entropy" of the "Black Emperor" pathway and the Sequence 2 "Master" of the "Perfecter" pathway.

Oh, this "Master" is what later generations call "Knowledge Instructor".

These Magical Items were far inferior to that Civilization Scroll, but they had the advantage of being numerous, with over ten of them!

This could be more than ten Saints, plus two Angels!

One must know that even the several Angels under the Sun God were still at the Sequence 2 level.

"..." Chumen was silent, even having the thought of going to rob an Ancient God's treasury.

These Ancient Gods had occupied the world for so many years; the Characteristics they had accumulated were absolutely terrifying. Even if many had been eaten, they could still count as half a True God Church of later generations!

With the appearance of these Magical Items, the shadow on the illusory stone tablet faded rapidly, gradually revealing the content within.

"Sequence 1, God of Knowledge... Sequence 2, Glorifier..." Badehaier and Oumibeila both memorized the knowledge within.

"One is still missing!" After reading the knowledge recorded for the God of Knowledge, Badehaier roared in a low voice, "What about the Sequence corresponding to the God?!"

"True God..." A strange smile appeared on Chumen's face, "Then you must decide whether you want to see it." As he spoke, he reached out to dissipate that last wisp of mist.

"No need! This is blasphemy!" Oumibeila stopped Chumen, and also stopped Badehaier.

She reached out and beckoned; a beautiful flower emerged from the Spirit World and directly swallowed the illusory stone tablet. Badehaier widened his eyes and dispersed the Dawn Armor, but could only glimpse a short half-line of text on it.

"Main ingredient: three 'God of Knowledge' Characteristics..."

Badehaier's gaze froze there, and the illusory stone tablet was completely swallowed by the beautiful flower, disappearing into the Spirit World, most likely returning to the Giant King's Court.

The power of life in Oumibeila's eyes grew heavier. She glanced at Badehaier, said nothing, then looked at Chumen, her gaze softening, "I hope we can have more opportunities for cooperation."

Finally, Oumibeila took Badehaier away from the Sun Kingdom and returned to the Giant King's Court.

"Knowledge is a huge profit!" Knowledge is basically equivalent to power in this world, but such huge profits can only be obtained when a Potion Formula is unique; Potion Formulas of later generations will be much cheaper.

Chumen looked at the various Magical Items before him. These things all had great side effects, but in front of an Angel, they could all be shattered and reorganized without any influence.

And the most important "Civilization Scroll", a Unique with living characteristics, had no ability to resist at all under the illumination of the Sun God's divine light.

"Except for the Unique, you can choose one from them." Sasriel's voice sounded in Chumen's ear.

"Then I will take one 'Master'."

Chumen did not stand on ceremony and pocketed a "Master" characteristic, which was of a similar sequence to the Sage's Robe on his body.

He planned to forcibly blend these two types of characteristics together to create an even more powerful Sage's Robe.

"The Hermit is knowledge itself, perfection is the application of knowledge..." The new Sage's Robe would surely be the mastery and application of knowledge.

Chumen already had a draft in his mind, and then he saw Sasriel appear and take the "Civilization Scroll" into his hands.

"The side effect is to forcibly twist everything in the region to the future it deduces, and this range will grow as time continues, until it spreads across the entire world." Sasriel had some understanding of its side effects.

In this process, whether it is humans or extraordinary races, their autonomy will be completely erased, becoming "gears" in the operation of civilization, and the process is irreversible.

"Even a Unique can be traded like this, so how much did you gain in this transaction with the Ancient Gods?"

"Mostly Sequence 2 Characteristics; Sequence 1s are already rare. An Ancient God who can resist not eating them is not an Ancient God."

"There are two Uniques, the Black Emperor's and this Civilization Scroll."

A Unique is ultimately different from a Sequence 1 Characteristic; after all, for a normal Sequence 1, eating a Sequence 1 Characteristic of the same pathway can strengthen oneself.

But to accommodate a Unique, one must hold a simplified version of the godhood ritual, otherwise, one will go mad.

"That's five God's Pathways, right?" Such a harvest was truly too great.

"More than that, the Beauty Goddess Ornia also traded the 'Moon' pathway with me."

Sasriel looked at Lilith, who had been staying by Chumen's side but had no sense of presence.

She had been watching the whole time.

"She controls the last of my Blood Clan's accumulation." Lilith was not surprised by this.

"The Ancient Gods' treasury?" Chumen suddenly thought of the three dead Ancient Gods.

No need to think about the Destruction Demon Wolf's; a madman would have swallowed whatever good things he had, and most of them are now in the hands of the Goddess.

Lilith had already made arrangements for this.

But what about the Alien King?

"The God of Knowledge Torz came here." Sasriel seemed to see through Chumen's question and said directly.

And the God of Knowledge was a subordinate god of the Alien King.

Uh uh uh... Chumen secretly sighed in regret; at that time, he was busy snatching the gold coins—oh no, it should be Characteristics—that the Ancient Gods dropped.

And the God of Knowledge had clearly made off with the rest of the Alien King's things.

One cannot have both kinds of benefits.

"However, I remember you seem to have a 'Divine Sin' on you?" Sasriel thought of this point, "She will find you sooner or later."

"The God of Spiritual Objects?" If he is the person from Chumen's memories, he seems quite miserable, and he even had a child who isn't very obedient...

"We'll talk about that later." Chumen shook his head slightly and looked at Lilith, "What do you think?"

"It's somewhat difficult, but it's not a problem." Lilith shook her head slightly.

"That's good." Bringing Lilith along this time was mostly to let her see this Oumibeila.
