Gods' Attention

The Deity have disappeared.

This is an extremely rare occurrence, but when it happens, it signifies a major upheaval.

Although the God of Half-Elves was only a Deity of [Quasi-Divinity], he was still a True God. As long as he remained in his Divine Realm, even Greater Divinity Deity would find it extremely difficult to kill him. This is because the Deity realm is an independent world, where God's Realm are the creators of laws, and no Deity would easily leave their realm. However, now an unexpected outcome has occurred: the God of Half-Elves is not in his God's Realm.

Deity rarely leave their own realm.

Even if they need to appear in other worlds, they will at most send an Avatar to descend, or use the body of a believer as a tool.

Therefore, in the Material Plane, there are also Avatar in the Half-Elf Church who can serve as the host of Deity. They have the ability to connect with the God's Realm and can communicate directly with the God of Half-Elves.

But a problem has arisen!

There was no trace of Him in the realm of the God of Half-Elves; this Deity of Quasi-Divinity was not in his own God's Realm.

He has disappeared.

All the priests were unable to contact the Deity, and no prayers were answered; naturally, everyone temporarily lost the ability to cast Divine Magic.

This is a very serious matter!

The Half-Elf homeland, centered around Falling Leaf City, has seen the emergence of many druids, but the main force protecting the Half-Elf- Half-Elf still comes from their guardian deity. His priests have been fighting against the Orc on the Wilderness Border, driving away the Ogre deep into the mountains, and the Dwarf, who are not exactly friendly to the Half-Elf either. The priests' loss of the ability to cast Divine Magic was a Destruction blow, so when they could no longer contact their Deity, the entire Church began to operate frantically.

This has happened before.

For example, the previous Lady of Fortune Wealth Cleric unable to perform any of her Divine Magic after she disappeared, and they were only able to make contact with her again after she returned.

But by then the Church had fallen to its lowest point, and eventually this Deity was replaced by his successor.

The Deity have disappeared.

This suggests that he may have perished or fallen to another Plane.

This event has attracted widespread attention, even drawing the attention of many Legendary Professional to the Falling Leaf City. With their priests losing their Divine Magic, Falling Leaf City hastily deployed defenses, preparing for any potential attacks. The fall of a Deity inevitably triggers a terrifying chain of events; both good and Evil will be interested in his remaining followers. The most important task for the Half-Elf Church now is to find the Deity's whereabouts, as Deity realm remains intact, and he may not have perished.

Soren is still completely unaware of the events unfolding far away in Falling Leaf City.

In fact.

He is extremely busy right now because taking over the Eastern Route requires a large number of manpower. At the same time, while expanding his territory, he also needs to supply the Overseas Islands with resources, which is putting some pressure on his finances. The Pirate King Asroder left behind a considerable amount of wealth, but not much of it can be converted into Gold Daler. Soren has nearly three hundred warships of various sizes and close to five thousand combat pirates under his command, and the expenses for these people's food, drink, and daily necessities are considerable.

With the Eastern Route cut off, another problem arose for Soren.

That means that no matter what grudges he had in the past, he had to negotiate with the Eastern Pirate, otherwise this shipping route would be useless. His fleet would not be able to reach the Eastern Realm, and the Eastern fleets would not be able to enter the South Coast.

Clang!

There was a knock on the door.

"Come in," Soren said in a deep voice, putting down the file in his hand.

Soon, a middle-aged man who looked like a clerk entered. He bowed slightly and said, "Sir, this is a recent message. Please take a look."

Soren nodded slightly and said, "Put it over there."

The middle-aged man quickly left.

After reviewing the statistics on supplies and spoils, Soren picked up the stack of intelligence files, glanced at them briefly, and then focused his attention on the intelligence information regarding White Horse City and Arendelle.

The South Coast is a Trade area, and information flows quickly.

White Horse City remains unchanged. The appearance of the Red Dragon has impacted land Trade, and the area is now somewhat desolate.

Many people avoided White Horse City, causing the city's commercial taxes to drop by more than 50%. Now, driving out or killing the Red Dragon has become urgent, and the Noble Council has unusually united, hoping to attract powerful Adventurer, preferably Legendary teams, with high bounties to deal with the Red Dragon.

Unfortunately, all the Adventurer teams that have gone there so far have never returned!

joke.

That's an Ancient Red Dragon. Soren can't even last a single round against it now. Going to a team of Legendary Professional would be a waste of lives.

Because its power is comparable to that of many Deity.

"White Horse City is now ruined!"

Soren muttered to himself, putting down the file, and said softly, "No one can kill the Ancient Red Dragon yet. Until the Time of Troubles begins, that place will be its territory."

"But this is for the best."

"When land Trade is disrupted by war, maritime Trade becomes even more important."

The second document was intelligence about Arendelle.

Upon seeing the above information, Soren frowned and muttered, "The Princess is missing? She hasn't been seen for a long time? Princess Anna is now in charge of managing Arendelle?"

"This is not good!"

Scenes from the past flashed before his eyes. Soren gently stroked the Legendary Scimitar Icetail and slowly said, "The prosperity of Arendelle was entirely supported by the strength of the Princess. Now that she has suddenly disappeared for so long, I'm afraid the situation in Arendelle is somewhat worrying! I wonder if Anna can handle it alone!"

The Princess's strength is unfathomable.

However, without this incredibly powerful Princess, Arendelle's strength was no longer commensurate with its wealth.

They lack real strength, yet possess immense wealth.

This is absolutely a disaster!

Now that Soren is far away on the South Coast, he can't really help much. He can only hope that the Princess will appear as soon as possible, since he still feels a vague sense of guilt towards Princess Anna.

He picked up a pen and wrote a message on the intelligence report, instructing others to pay close attention to the situation in Arendelle.

His intuition told him!

If the Princess is indeed missing, war will likely break out in Arendelle.

The Battle of Sand Fury Island.

Soren's gains were unsurprisingly substantial. First, he acquired a large amount of Slaughter Experience, most of which came from his own efforts, with a smaller portion provided by the Mutated Killer Whale. The Divine Gift had such an effect, which truly surprised Soren. Although the Slaughter Experience he gained was less than 10,000 points, it was still an additional source of knowledge.

He currently has accumulated 160,000 Slaughter Experience points, enough to raise his Wizard Class Level, but not enough to raise his Shadow Dancer level.

It's a pity I couldn't personally kill the Red Dragon Duchess.

The real majority of experience points come from her; killing her could conservatively yield over 100,000 Slaughter Experience.

As for Pirate King Asroder, that guy only has less than 40,000 points.

He's a complete waste!

No wonder he didn't dare to face the King of the Swamp back then; this guy's strength was simply no match for the King of the Swamp.

The biggest gain from this battle was Legendary Degree; after defeating the Pirate King Asroder, Soren achieved the highest Legendary Degree in history.

"Battle of Sand Fury Island [Legendary Combat]: In mid-February of the Crescent Era 1676, you fought a decisive battle between Pirate King on Sand Fury Island. During the battle, you killed Pirate King Asroder and defeated the Red Dragon Duchess. Your fame has spread throughout the world's seas; most pirates have heard of you, and you are now the most powerful Pirate King on the South Coast. Simultaneously, due to the appearance of the Tsunami and the Avatar of the Goddess of the Sea, the attention of other forces towards you is gradually increasing. The appearance of the Goddess of the Sea's Avatar signifies that your existence has attracted the attention of some Deity, therefore, beings in certain Legendary Domain may pay even closer attention to you. [Legendary Degree +8]"

Legendary Degree: 8 points.

Soren has never achieved such a high Legendary Degree.

The mention of Deity attention, especially, seemed to carry a chilling undertone, putting Soren under pressure.

Enter the Legendary Domain.

They were already worthy of the attention of many Deity, because their Legendary transcended that of mortals.

Being noticed by the Deity ahead of time, whether it's a good thing or a bad thing, is still a journey to be continued. Soren has a clearer plan for the next step.

Elemental Crystal).

Soren examined the Legendary Equipment he had acquired at the very beginning, a thoughtful expression creeping onto his face.

We've come this far.

The usefulness of this Legendary Equipment has diminished considerably, as there are far fewer enemies capable of forcing Soren to use Stoneskin, and summoning Earth Elemental on the ocean is essentially useless.

However, it's not entirely useless!

Because this Legendary Equipment is only part of a certain item, it is a chain quest of Legendary difficulty, and the final loot is a Divine Rank Shard.

Elemental Crystal), Elemental Crystal), Elemental Crystal (Fire), Elemental Crystal (Air).

Four pieces of equipment combined into one.

It's a Tier 3 Legendary Item capable of simultaneously summoning Huge Earth Elemental, Huge Water Elemental, Huge Fire Elemental, and giant Air Elemental. (The Elemental Life is second only to that of the Legendary Elemental Elder.)

With Soren's current abilities, he is qualified to attempt this challenge!

and.

There's one piece of equipment Soren might need to retrieve from the Desert Ruins: the Rogue's Artifact —the [Anti-Detection Cloak].

A Legendary Equipment grants immunity to any Detect Invisibility Spell.
