“Demonic Dragon Crown! The Moratti Shrine’s Demonic Dragon Crown!” Tyrese and the Dark Shrine had been battling for years, how could she be unable to identify this item. She exclaimed, “You obtained it!? It can give out the Primordial Dragon Prowess and awe the dragons! We, the Guild of Light, have an agreement with the Dragons, where we will live in peace. We send our people over every year to interact with the Dragons and Dragon Knights, so we cannot attack them. However, there are countless evil and tyrannic dragons in the New Age, if we are to send the Paladins with the Demonic Dragon Crown to slay them, how much will their abilities be boosted?!”
Lin Jie was surprised. He knew that players from the Tribe of Darkness often got onto the nerves of the bad-tempered Black Dragons, Bone Dragons, etc. Hence slaughters and killings were a common sight. No wonder the Guild of Light had never suffered any attacks from the Dragons before, there existed such a relationship between both parties.
‘Dragon Knight? This should be a Hidden Job, but it seems that only NPCs are eligible for this job-change. I wonder if other players could do that too.’
“That’s right, that’s the Demonic Dragon Crown.” Lin Jie kept his equipment and glanced at the King of Blood again. He voiced out the plan that he had been brewing for a while, “My plan is to use the King of Blood as bait to hide all the Paladins, Bishops, and Believers inside. This will not be difficult for Space Mages like you guys. I will transform into a Moratti Shrine Dragon Envoy and infiltrate into the interior of the Dark Shrine and steal the King of Blood’s corpse. And then, with our cooperation, we will be able to deal some serious damage to the Dark Shrine!”
Tyrese weighed the pros and cons as she listened to Lin Jie’s plan, and her brows started twitching violently.
Lin Jie stood at the side, he had his own reasons for choosing Tyrese instead of the other Holy Church’s management. Tyrese was more flexible than those old fogeys, and she possessed this charge and passion and wielded very strong military power as she was in the dungeon-group in the War of Light.
His plan was to make use of the power given by the system to the NPCs to aid him!
Not to mention... let’s not forget who Tyrese’s lover was. It was the superlicious Wind Rider Sword Saint! Although the Sword Saint would not attack unless his lover was in life-threatening danger, it was always good to have backup, right?
“Your plan has a loophole! You are only going to transform into a Dragon Envoy, but not the Moratti Shrine’s master. You will not have much power to be able to bring the King of Blood in and avoid any checks. Besides, the Dark Shrine is hidden deep within the void with ever-changing coordinates, how can you ambush when even the Holy Church’s Grand Archangel will not be able to divine the location? How can we cooperate from the outside?” Tyrese analyzed the loopholes in Lin Jie’s plan, reflecting a high level of intelligence.
If Lin Jie did not give a qualitative answer, Tyrese would ignore him, and he definitely could not let this happen! Once the mission was activated, it would definitely become a main track mission! There were only a few players that were able to activate the main track missions in the 7 years in his previous life!
Lin Jie flicked his fingers and replied, “We are dealing with the two shrines out of the twelve, Blood Sub-Shrine and Mesosaprobic Shrine, not the Dark Shrine.”
“Blood Sub-Shrine, Mesosaprobic Shrine? This...” Tyrese suddenly understood. “You are going to destroy the Dark Holy Water’s roots to prevent humans in the alternate realms from joining the Dark Shrine for the attributes of the Dark Holy Water and oppose the Holy Church?”
Lin Jie snapped his fingers and said, “That’s right! However, I have other reasons, as well.”
“What other reasons?”
“According to what I know, the twelve sub-shrines of the Dark Shrine are not on friendly terms and have many internal fights. Blood Sub-Shrine and Mesosaprobic Shrine have a history of conflicts and even wars! I will infiltrate the Mesosaprobic Shrine as a Moratti Shrine Dragon Envoy and offer the corpse of the King of Blood as a sacrifice. They will not check in detail for a smokescreen! Hence, we will be able to go about undiscovered. Then, I will leak this news and provoke a conflict between them while we await to destruct the Dark Holy Water’s source. In this way, not only will we inflict damages on the Dark Shrine, but we will also be able to recruit many talents for the Holy Church.” Lin Jie recited his foolproof plan and explained it in detail to Tyrese.
Tyrese brooded over it for ten minutes before finally nodding. “Your game plan is indeed enticing. However, if it were to fail, countless soldiers will be captured and slew by the Dark Shrine. They will be turned into Undead and kill their own men. This is risky as well, however, it is a risk worth taking! I approve of your plan. Now, I have one last question,” she said.
She stared at Lin Jie and asked, “How did you know of the internal relations of the Dark Shrine?”
Lin Jie was already expecting this question as he said, “Once, I captured a slave from the Dark Shrine that knew of many insider information. Furthermore, it is not hard for a Dragon Envoy like me to control the Moratti Shrine’s internal dragons.”
Tyrese understood, waved her hand, and said, “Moratti Shrine has a new Shrine Master, your Demonic Dragon Crown’s power will be much lower now. However, it is still sufficient to transform you into a Dragon Envoy. We will go according to your plan, I have to hurry and mobilize the manpower before the remaining seal at the Devil Entrance loosenS even more. Human, this is your experience points reward!”
Ding~
Following Tyrese’s waving motion, radiant light entered Lin Jie’s body, and his experience bar was filled up to the maximum!
Upgrade! Upgrade!
—’You have leveled up to level 35 and received 5 Free Stat Points and 2 Fixed Stat Points.’
—’You have leveled up to level 36...’
—’You have leveled up to level 37 and received 5 Free Stat Points and 2 Fixed Stat Points.’
Furthermore, his experience bar reached 65% at level 37! This was the great reward for slaying the King of Blood! Dark Gold Overlords and Bosses simply paled in comparison! Once a player reached a certain standard, those ‘public enemies’ were the real treasure troves!
“Human from an alternate realm, you were supposed to receive the reputation, wealth, and even the New Age’s Accomplishment Reward Points you deserved. However, I have placed those on hold as your proposal is too large-scaled. If it works, I will request the Holy Church for the City of Light’s position for you,” said Tyrese.
“What? City of Light Leader? The Holy Church has such power?” Lin Jie was shocked. He had been the City of Light Leader in his previous life, but that was due to farming 3 years’ worth of missions with just the right amount of luck and chances. When he had taken over the city, it had also required a large amount of money to rebuild as it had been waning.
However, taking it from an NPC did not require any amount of money!
This was the reason why Lin Jie had chosen to increase public support in his current life and start serving the people from the very start, all in preparation for the City Leader election in the future. He never knew that the Holy Church was capable of appointing the position.
Tyrese scoffed and said, “The power of our Holy Church is much greater than you can ever expect. Alright, you may leave first, I will update you once we have completed the discussion.”
Lin Jie pointed to the King of Blood’s corpse and laughed. “I will have to trouble Raid Commander to send Space Mages to transport this body to my Sky Provisions Shop for me to remove the stinky blood. Otherwise, it will not be comfortable for the soldiers that will be hiding within.”
Tyrese nodded. “Sky Provisions Shop has many dealings with the Holy Church, I will definitely help you.”
“Okay, then I’ll be leaving first,” said Lin Jie and turned to leave.
Settled!
‘If the Dark Shrine continues to progress, there may be dire consequences if Eighteen Massacres were to recruit strong players. I have to be well prepared to destroy the Dark Holy Water source! Besides, the Dark Holy Water was created due to the degeneration of the Heart of Holy Light. Although it can’t increase attributes directly, one can still boost their Magic Immunity to the same level as the Paladins.’ Lin Jie calculated. ‘Furthermore, a large amount of treasure and wealth is stored in the sub-shrines of the Dark Shrine. The previous time when I failed to clear Moratti Shrine, Caesar the Great took away a large amount of money. This time, I must earn a full load while getting the City of Light Leader position as well.’
.........
Atlas Peak!
This sky-high mountain peak remained unconquerable by many. To date, the number of players that had been able to reach the Atlas Peak was less than 10.
Furthermore, those that had climbed till Atlas Peak after Lin Jie had only received an Accomplishment Point, and no longer the New Age Accomplishment Point.
“Eighteen Massacres, you don’t seem to be doing well.”
“Same to you.”
The two men that stood at the peak, which overlooked that borderless land, were Eighteen Massacres and Baili Xuanyuan!
Eighteen Massacres was clad in cloth armor, his Seven Style Spear seemed to sigh in the air as it appeared dull after losing the Dark Blade.
Baili Xuanyuan appeared much better on the other hand. He had already reached Level 17 and was covered in Dark Gold Fragments. His understated but luxurious clothing fully showcased his bearing as a guild leader.
Baili Xuanyuan chuckled out loud. “When you left the Three Alliances, you promised that you would obtain Lone Wolf’s Broken Blade within 2 months and raise Kingdom of Glory’s by two-fold. Otherwise, you would hand over 20% of the stocks. Now, I guess I really have to take back these stocks.”
Eighteen Massacres glared at him. He had suffered great losses from that battle at the Ancient Wilderness Temple. Other than losing more than 10 levels of experience, his Mara Armor had also been dropped. Although he had been leveling up like crazy recently, he was only at Level 24, which was no different from a new player.
“That’s right, however, do you have that ability to do so currently? Let’s not talk about Lone Wolf’s Broken Blade, it has now been enhanced to the grade of Dark Gold, and there seemed to be a complementary supplementary sword present that has boosted its power. The difficulty for your Kingdom of Glory’s ability to increase two-fold has probably increased?”
Upon hearing Baili Xuanyuan, Eighteen Massacres ground his teeth and said fiercely, “No! I have my own solutions! At most, I’ll make all the players in Kingdom of Glory to join the Dark Shrine!”
“You are crazy! They can indeed become stronger and learn more powerful skills upon joining the Dark Shrine. However, don’t forget that the Guild of Light is under the rule of the Holy Church and Imperial. Once you do that, Kingdom of Glory will be disbanded due to overwhelming dark forces, and you will no longer be able to participate in all major events and city sieges... this can only resume if the current political situation changes. Are you not going to participate in the upcoming final battle that will bring about great rewards?”
Eighteen Massacres’ eyes turned as he laughed. “I have no other choice at this stage! At most, I will disband the guild and convert it to an underground organization and become raiders! I have recruited so many players, now that the King of Blood is dead, I can become the next Vice Shrine Master of the Blood Sub-Shrine. Everything that I have lost will be mine once again! The Blood Sub-Shrine will then finally be mine.”
