As Lu PingAn happily made his way toward his destination, on a nearby island, a massacre had just drawn to a close.
"...Interesting."
Holding a shattered corpse, her hands stained red, Eve stood with her back to the newly risen Morning Sun and smiled faintly.
The killing urge she had just satisfied had granted her a rare moment of calm.
Beside her, her subordinates were dragging the unlucky victims' remains onto the ship. To Life-type users, such "perfect bodies" above Law Decree-level were extremely high-quality and scarce materials.
As for the object they had fought over, it was a "ticket" for the next round.
"Still haven't identified it?"
Eve glanced over, and the Mother Goddess Church members immediately broke out in cold sweat.
This lady was truly hard to please.
"...We found it, we found it! It's a Fate Beacon, a one-use Strange Object. Once the second stage is unlocked, it can be used to ask any question."
"Anything?" Eve looked utterly unconvinced. Could a Miracle Creation involving fate really be so easy to obtain?
"...The records say it's limited to people and objects within the Martial Arts Ceremony."
Fine, if it was limited to this tiny secret realm, then it was completely useless.
But if one asked questions like, "Who is my opponent?" "Where is the divine grace I seek?" or "Which opponent should I choose to go farther?" then, through fate's insight, one could obtain rather stable and reliable answers.
A consumable that could provide an advantage in the next round but could not be taken outside—an item of this rank matched the difficulty of acquiring it.
"...Really?!"
At that moment, Eve's face lit up with delight. This might be the treasure she wanted.
"Lao Qian, not to criticize you, but this is a bit too much."
