A conversation in the Spirit Realm
"Hello, I am Tobias, the Blood Spear Priest of the God of War Sect."
"Just call me Lai, the Proxy of the Radiant Sect."
' Lai ' blinked; after being teleported by the Lord of Radiance, she arrived in a dream world.
This dreamscape seems to have been specially altered before the Lord of Radiance arrived, as it conveniently leads to the adjacent realm. It appears that the original lord was also connected to the God of War Sect.
Even with such arrangements, the God of War Sect remained silent when their territory in the Brilliant Dream was moved.
This can only be attributed to the original lord's poor choice of friends. He even deliberately opened the passage to the neighboring realm, but when something truly went wrong, he simply closed his eyes to it.
Even these followers of the God of War came only to warn the Lord of Radiance not to move the Sun Block away.
Of course, this could also be interpreted as meaning that no matter what the Lord of Radiance did, even if he harmed the interests of the Gods in the Spirit Realm, he was still a Deity after all.
Astral Realm beings are generally closer to their own kind than to the lords of the Spirit Realm.
"I know that your Sect's Deity is currently in actual control of this realm, and He is even moving Block away."
"The God of War has issued Divine Oracle: He doesn't care how many Block of land here will be moved, nor does He care what will happen when the lords return."
"However, within this realm, there is a very important Block. According to the conclusion of the Gods' discussion, this Block should remain in its original place, and no Deity should touch it."
"If any other beings attempt to attack these Block, the Gods should unite to stop them."
"This is the Divine Oracle of the God of War, and also an agreement discussed by the Gods. Your Sect's Deity were not involved in this discussion before, so my lord sent me to remind them."
' Lai ' thought to himself that the Lord of Radiance already knew this, otherwise He wouldn't have reminded him that as long as these Block moved, the Gods would definitely take action.
However, the God of War specifically sent his followers to discuss this matter, presumably because he didn't want something to happen in the Spirit Realm at this crucial moment when he was about to attack Number Three Floating City.
' Lai ' blinked, then replied:
"Of course, my Lord also believes that Block is somewhat special. He already knows that it is an Block that should not be moved, so you can rest assured."
Tobias came to inform them that this area could not be moved, but informing them was his job; Fran and the Lord of Radiance had already decided to move the Sun Block.
Her response to Tobias here is the same thing; she tells Tobias with absolute certainty that she will not do that.
But what the actual situation was, that was something that certainly couldn't be told to Tobias.
Tobias nodded. In fact, ' Lai ' only had one possible answer. Even if ' Lai ' really wanted to do it, he probably wouldn't tell him.
"I'm just here to deliver a message: the original lord of this realm is still alive, so I'll be leaving now."
Thank you for letting us know, we will remember it.
Tobias paused deliberately, trying to read ' Lai's ' thoughts from his face, but ' Lai ' remained expressionless, and he couldn't discern anything from him.
Upon seeing this, he finally turned around and walked towards the specially treated entrance to the dream, returning to the realm controlled by the God of War Sect.
"He seems to know what we're up to... but it doesn't matter, his presence is a good thing."
' Lai ' pursed his lips and thought to himself slowly.
On the other side, when Tobias returned to the realm, worry and concern began to appear on his face.
A massive Divine Temple had been built inside the realm. He walked into his private prayer room, gripped a longsword with gold trim, squatted slightly, and closed his eyes.
"My lord, I have seen the Proxy of the Lord of Radiance. She may be moving Sun Block, but I do not know the exact time."
He waited a few seconds, Deity issued another decree, but this time the result made him frown deeply.
"They can't offer me any more support, and the other members within the Sect also have their own things to do. So how can I stop her?"
"The Radiant Sect does have third-tier believers who are not Proxy, which means that the Proxy has already advanced to the third tier."
"If I were to face a third-tier expert from another Sect, I'm confident I could stop her, but she's Proxy of the Deity; I have no chance of winning."
Tobias was well aware that these Proxy of the Deity, at the same Order, essentially possessed some additional advantages.
The gap created by this bonus remains huge at the third tier. Only at the Fourth Order can those with extremely rich experience and years of hard work as veteran Profession have a chance to defeat those Proxy by relying on this bonus.
Regardless of what it can do against a siege, it certainly has a huge advantage when facing a single enemy.
Just then, a touch of red appeared on the golden longsword, and Tobias understood.
"May our Lord bless those who are invincible on the Battlefield; they will carry bags full of Gold Coin..."
This is a euphemism; what Tobias actually wanted to do was use the Gold Coin to hire some Mercenary.
This is also permitted and encouraged by the teachings of the God of War.
After all, once war breaks out, it's almost impossible to obtain any useful Spoils of War besides Gold Coin.
Even the God of War is not omnipotent; simply waging war cannot solve the problem of food.
Moreover, a soldier needs to undergo full-time training, and a large number of soldiers would be a huge burden on the production system.
Therefore, according to the doctrines of the God of War Sect, the Deity will also protect those warriors who respond to the call of the God of War. What is the corresponding reason for this?
If it's not for money, is it for faith? But they're not even followers of the Sect.
"I might have to go to the Sun Domain to stop that Proxy, but then a large army of low-level Profession won't be enough."
Although Battle Formation targeting high-level Profession have also been developed on the mainland, the placement of these Battle Formation is too dependent on the environment. If they are placed in places like the Sun Domain where the environment changes drastically, it will be difficult to unleash their full combat power.
"Then I'll have to look for those Third Order Professional, and they have to be from the Spirit Realm system. Because of the special nature of the Spirit Realm Spirit Realm, it's difficult for Profession on the mainland to unleash their full potential there."
"I possess a trace of Deity Divine Power, which allows me to unleash my full potential in the Spirit Realm."
Profession on the mainland can freely enter the Spirit Realm, and even death will not affect their physical body. This lenient punishment also limits the power exerted by non- Spirit Realm Profession in the Spirit Realm.
This limitation increases with each level, and by the third level, it can no longer be ignored and needs to be given serious consideration.
Fran possesses Divine Power and the Order Spirit Realm Mage, so she doesn't need to worry about not being able to unleash her full power in the Spirit Realm.
Tobias had also decided which Spirit Realm Profession he wanted to find, Profession with whom he had worked before.
"Deliver the letters to these two places as quickly as possible. If possible, you should bring them with you when you go there."
"Yes." Even if the followers of the God of War do not receive orders for war, they still maintain the swiftness of action characteristic of the Battlefield.
About three hours later, two powerful auras appeared one after the other within a few seconds, which relieved Tobias.
If ' Lai ' had launched his operation before these two arrived, he alone wouldn't have been able to stop an Proxy.
But as long as these two people arrive, everything will be fine.
He stood up in the Divine Temple's reception room and watched as the door was suddenly pushed open, and two figures, one tall and one short, walked in.
A tall Profession, whose door was about two and a half meters high, had to duck to enter.
With bare arms and a simple strip of cloth draped over his body, covered in jagged scales, this was Hart, a rather famous Spirit Realm Profession known as the ' Gray Dragon '.
Another Gray Dragon was standing nearby. He also looked rather thin, with signs of aging on his face, waxy yellow hands, and a somewhat unsteady gait, as if he had a leg ailment. This was Holden, the ' Image of the Void '.
"Our reward is still the same as last time? 6000 Gold Coin?"
Both men had collaborated with the God of War Sect on several occasions and were aware of the God of War Sect's rewards for such urgent matters.
Tobias nodded, then slowly said:
"I need two people to prepare with me. They don't necessarily have to take action, but they must be well-prepared."
"If nothing else is happening, then this is the price; if we need to go into battle, then the reward will be doubled."
Both of them wore happy smiles, after all, this was a large sum of money, and the time required was also very short, only seven days.
If no battle occurs after seven days, they can take the 6,000 Gold Coin back with them.
Although they were delighted by the generous reward, a sense of hesitation still lingered beneath their joy.
After all, the God of War Sect isn't here to hand out money. The fact that they're giving out such a large sum of money suggests that this battle will likely be very difficult.
"What do we need to face?" Hart ' Gray Dragon,' asked first; this was something they needed to know.
They don't accept just any mission. Several times, the God of War Sect came with missions, but they still refused because these missions were too difficult.
Even the tasks they accepted weren't much simpler; they took them on because they were capable of handling them.
"This time we may be facing an Proxy of Deity and a follower of the opposing Sect..." As Tobias was speaking, the Golden Longsword in his hand shone again, this time revealing a crack in the crimson hue.
So he immediately changed his tune.
"The intelligence was wrong. We only need to confront the Proxy of that Deity; the believer is currently elsewhere."
The two hesitated for a moment, then asked:
Are you sure?
"This is Deity decree given to me; we can sign All-Spirit Contract to prove that what I say is true."
Hart and Holden exchanged a glance, both seeing interest in each other's expressions.
"If it's that simple, then we'll definitely accept."
For the two of them, this task was indeed rather simple, since they might only have to deal with the proxy and at most one more third-tier Proxy.
They had a numerical advantage and knew the divine arts of the God of War, which provided a huge boost in melee battles against multiple enemies.
"That's easy, of course. If it weren't for the Sect's busy internal affairs, I wouldn't need to come to you..." Tobias shared the same thought as the two of them.
With the help of these two, even if the Radiant Sect brings out another Tier 3 fighter, they still have a chance to win thanks to the God of War's magical advantage.
"However, this time we need to travel to a special realm to fight, which will weaken the Spirit Realm abilities related to the lord to some extent."
"It's alright. Just the strength of a third-tier expert is enough for us to tear our opponents apart." Holden closed his eyes, completely relaxing, as if he no longer considered the matter a threat.
