0-05, Magic Wishing Lamp
Amyrius was calling out to William Augustus, one of the Angel of the Loen Royal Family and the "Nation Builder."
He had already fought the [Blood Bishop] twice and knew all too well that he had no hope of defeating him. So, the moment he saw the [Blood Monk], he made the wise choice to seek help directly from the more powerful Royal Family Angel!
"Boom!"
As soon as he finished his prayer, a majestic gaze descended from above the broadcasting station, carrying terrifying pressure, overlooking the space and the blood-red figure.
Luther immediately felt an intense pressure; the air around him seemed to solidify into a block of iron, making it difficult to breathe no matter how hard he tried to expand his lungs.
However, the "Nation Builder's" gaze lingered only briefly before withdrawing. He not only did not descend upon the broadcasting station, but also left no trace of his presence, simply allowing Amyrius to remain where he was, intercepting the Blood Bishop alone.
"Your Excellency! Why?!"
Amyrius looked up in disbelief and shouted to the sky.
He couldn't understand why the other party hadn't made a move even though they had clearly seen the Blood Bishop's figure!
"Oh..."
Seeing this, Luther sneered, "Don't be surprised, the 'Nation Builder' won't be coming..."
---- The Wilderness of East Chester County, amidst rolling hills.
A woman dressed in a girlish yellow tiered dress and wearing a black, old-fashioned soft hat quietly appeared in the air. Her chestnut hair was naturally draped over her shoulders, her eyebrows were long and straight, and her eyes were deep, like the blue Ocean.
"The Queen Mystic", Bernadette.
"Sizzle..."
Countless emerald green Pea Vines appeared out of nowhere, surrounding her, supporting her, growing and extending, and carrying her to the front of a mountain that looked very ordinary on the outside.
Looking at the mountain wall in front of her, the "Queen Mystic" stretched out her right hand.
"Swish swish swish..."
Drops of bright red blood, like tiny jewels, seeped from her fingertips. She then dipped her fingers in this blood and swiftly sketched symbols in the void.
Soon, a complex symbol composed of layers of "doors" emerged. Its overall shape was mysterious and enigmatic, yet the blood that constituted it gave it an eerie and insane quality.
The fusion of these two conflicting feelings caused the symbol to tremble subtly, as if it were beginning to resonate with the entire space.
"Creak--"
Amidst a teeth-grinding sound, the crimson symbol expanded outwards, forcefully tearing through space to form a semi-transparent door! The symbol provided by "Mr. Door" was indeed effective!
The "Queen Mystic," Bernadette, gazed silently into the room through the doorway with a calm expression.
Inside, she saw a scene completely different from the outside world—a huge Mausoleum made of black stones stood in a dark and deep space.
Without a doubt, this is one of George III's Concealment Mausoleum!
Bernadette stepped through the door and appeared in the space. The surrounding light came from the stone pillar lamps on both sides of the winding path and the strange Underground Moss growing on the cliff face, which together illuminated the secret Mausoleum located in the light mist at the bottom.
The tomb looked like a hidden behemoth, spewing forth glowing smoke.
The Queen gazed at the massive black Mausoleum, raised her right hand, and a Spear of Longinus of ancient design, stained with dark red blood from tip to hilt, was created.
She aimed at the tomb below and hurled her spear!
The spear vanished silently after being thrown, as if disappearing into the deep darkness around it.
"!"
Bernadette's eyes narrowed slightly as she looked up at the sky above the Mausoleum. There, a faint, deep light gathered and eventually condensed into a figure. The figure had a square face, black hair, blue eyes, a high nose, a thick beard, and a rather solemn expression.
His appearance and image are not unfamiliar to many people in Loen, as he is printed on the front of the £10 note. Even those who have never received a £10 note in their lives can see his statue or Portrait in places like Anniversary Square. He was the Nation Builder, protector, and Oldest One king of Loen, William Augustus I.
Royal Family Angel, "Arbiter" Pathway Sequence 1 "Hand of Order"!
This person was already a powerful being who had reached Sequence 1, while Bernadette on the other side was just a "Sage" who had just been promoted to Sequence 2. The difference in their power was obvious!
However, facing this Archangel, Bernadette remained calm, flipping her hand to produce a strange object from who-knows-where. The object was golden, resembling a miniature kettle, its surface covered with mysterious and complex symbols, from which a wick extended.
Bernadette's right hand caressed the lamp, and the wick burned silently.
The light it emitted was like viscous water, spraying upwards and forming a blurry, Distortion pale golden figure.
"Eternal Genie, my second wish is to gain the power of the 'Knowledge Emperor' for even a day." Seizing the opportunity before William Augustus I had fully arrived, Bernadette solemnly spoke in the Jotun.
The item in her hand is called the "Magic Wishing Lamp," which may have originated in the First Epoch. Although it has never been obtained by the Seven Great Church, it has a corresponding "0" level Sealed Artifact number.
"0-05"!
Roselle left his daughter three Grade 0 Sealed Artifacts: "Pale Death," "Sage's Headdress," and this magic lamp. Theoretically, it can grant the holder any ten wishes, but these wishes will either be fulfilled in a Distortion form or come with unpredictable and extremely terrible consequences.
None of its former owners met a good end, including Roselle Gustav.
This emperor had warned his daughter that she could try to avoid the harm caused by the first two wishes through words and preparation, but she must never make a third wish, absolutely not! "██▇▆█"
The golden silhouette of the Genie seemed to glance at Bernadette. In the next instant, the "Queen Mystic's " Spirituality surged dramatically, her chestnut hair stood on end, and her status rose sharply, becoming comparable to the fully descended "Nation Builder" William I!
Despite the terrible consequences to come, at least for now, Bernadette has also reached Sequence 1 level.
She will stop at nothing to protect her father, Roselle!
With his stern appearance and imposing demeanor, William III silently gazed at Bernadette, his expression somber and unreadable.
Meanwhile, outside the radio station.
"The person you're praying to, the 'Nation Builder,' is probably protecting his Mausoleum and doesn't have time to get away."
Luther said with a cold laugh.
"... Mausoleum?"
Amyrius looked somewhat bewildered upon hearing Luther's words. "What are you talking about?"
He didn't seem to understand the meaning of "[Blood Bishop]".
Luther was taken aback at first, then he somewhat understood.
This poor fellow was probably unaware of George III's plans and was completely kept in the dark by the latter.
