Which Paths of the Divine does this belong to? It seems to involve space? Is He a High Sequence powerhouse of the "Apprentice" Pathway? Klein speculated in his heart.

He quickly gathered his thoughts and reached out to touch the short staff.

"Are you sure that's all?" Klein stopped what he was doing and asked, intrigued, not daring to pick up the Sealed Artifact rashly for fear of provoking the other party's hostility.

Without hesitation, Lorry answered:

"Sure."

Are you sure? Is there really such a good thing in the world? Could it be that this person really has no hostility? Klein's feelings were complicated, and he was a little uneasy for a moment.

He hesitated for a moment and asked:

"What price do you need me to pay?"

He had made up his mind that even if he had to give up the enormous temptation before him, he would not hand over things like blood, soul imprints, or other things that could have endless consequences.

Training courses for Nighthawks and folk tales are never short of similar stories.

But without exception.

Those who accepted the deal never ended up well.

No, perhaps I could try to take the Sealed Artifact and run away... There's a risk of being blocked by the Gray Fog, but I'm confident I can block their tracking methods...

At such close range, He might not be able to stop him in time... The problem is, the other party hasn't shown any malice yet, which doesn't align with my principles... I hope He's not deceiving me, but genuinely intends to make an equal exchange; otherwise, I'll reconsider... Klein's thoughts were in turmoil.

Finally, a cheerful voice rang out, ending his anxious wait.

No cost is required.

"You're too weak right now, what can you possibly do? You'll only be qualified to do these three things once you Advancement to Sequence 2 or even higher."

"Heh, the first thing I can tell you in advance is that I need your help to resurrect someone, which won't involve divinity."

As soon as he finished speaking, Klein couldn't help but recall the words of Zaratul, the leader of the Secret Order:

" To Resurrection is a miracle!"

No upfront payment is required... The simplest first thing I need to do Advancement Sequence 2 "Miracle Invoker" before I can do it...

Klein found it difficult to describe his current feelings.

My goal is to Advancement High Sequence.

But Sequence 2, which is called "Angel" in modern times and "Subordinate Deity" in ancient times, frankly speaking, I don't even have the confidence to reach this point.

He seems to have more faith in himself than I do... Klein thought with a wry smile, then after a few seconds of silence, he said, "I will improve my Sequence as soon as possible."

He paused briefly, then shared some of his previous speculations about the resurrection:

"Resurrection may have certain conditions."

"If too much time has passed or certain conditions for resurrection are not met, I cannot guarantee that this matter will be completed by then."

Before long, Klein heard the other person's voice:

"It doesn't matter.

"I already said, things won't be beyond your control."

Upon hearing this, Klein no longer hesitated and reached for the short staff.

He felt his vision blur slightly again, and the space in front of him seemed to change, bringing a feeling that was hard to describe in words.

At the same time, he heard layers of illusory prayers in his ears, and he saw hallucinations, seeing Believer prostrating themselves in prayer, and rebels weeping bitterly over the self-destruction of idols.

Whew... Klein quickly let go, letting the short staff fall to the ground.

In my current state, I can only pick it up for a few seconds at most... I'll pick it up again when I leave later. Now I'll go look for other treasures...

However, let's give it a name first... "Sea God Scepter" would be suitable...

Thinking this, he looked up and asked:

"May I take anything else from here?"

No one responded.

Klein sensed this was tacit approval from the other party. He strode to the corner, picked up the "Biological Poison Bottle" he had just thrown away, searched around again, found the Iron Cigarette Case he Sacrifice, and finally went to the back of the almost completely collapsed hall, where he found a flattened golden goblet near the mural.

Its surface is engraved with intricate and delicate patterns, its tall legs are bent, and there is a line of Elvish on the bottom. "Calamity, Cohinem".

Combining the mural he had just seen with the name, he quickly thought of a possibility:

The ancient being Bestowal him the "Sea God Scepter" was most likely a high-ranking Elf who had not yet died, such as "The Scourge" Cohinem.

Kalvetua's Beyonder Characteristic come from Him, and His purpose for Kalvetua over the past few centuries has been to reclaim the Beyonder Characteristic of division.

Of course, this was His original plan.

After He appeared, He may have had a better option, so He generously gave Him the "Sea God Scepter" in exchange for three promises for the Future.

The second or third thing was probably helping Him get out of trouble and truly rise from the dead; however, relatively speaking, I still earned more.

The "Sea God Scepter" is a genuine Demigod- level Sealed Artifact!

No one can predict the Future, but at least he doesn't have to take any risks! With that thought, Klein put away the golden goblet and returned to his original spot.

He looked up and glanced around, then said in a respectful tone:

I'm leaving.

"Could you please tell me your Honorific Name so that I can fulfill my promise in the future?"

This is an attempt to test whether I am Cohinem... Tsk tsk, these "Seer" are really cunning. No wonder the Emperor said he would beat them all on sight...

Thinking of this, Lorry said in a completely calm tone:

"Unnecessary.

"I will know when you Advancement Sequence 2."

He would find out... Klein suppressed a faint sense of dread and asked the final question, "You don't seem worried at all that I'll break my promise?"

"No price was demanded, nor was a Mysticism contract signed."

A brief silence fell over the room. This time, the other person seemed to take a long time to think; it was almost half a minute before he heard a response.

There are two sentences in total:

"Isn't this a good thing for you?"

"If you break your promise, you will be the one who suffers the most, not me."

The one who suffered the greatest loss was me... How could He be so confident... Klein was silent for a few seconds, then nodded slightly, picked up the "Sea God Scepter" and ended the summoning.

The space rippled slightly, and Lorry stepped out from another Dimension.

He raised the White Bone Ring on his right hand, glanced at it, and chuckled softly:

Do you know what price I just paid to resurrect you as a Sequence 5? It was a promise from the Future "Fool".

"Forget it, you wouldn't understand anyway. Just go back to sleep."

As he spoke, he took out a large amount of Spirituality materials and went back and forth in various directions, scattering herbs and other things on the ground, preparing to hold a "Sacrifice" ceremony.

A moment later, the three candles were lit one after another.

Amidst the sweet and sour Citrus Scent, Lorry softly murmured his Honorific Name:

"Unique Otherworldly Traveler,"

"The Gentleman Thief Who Once Walked in Backlund,"

"The Holder of the Book of Dimensions"

I beg for your gaze,

I pray for your favor.

"I beseech you to open the gates to your divine kingdom."

Call!

The Flames Burning wildly, eventually revealing a giant, illusory Portal.

It opened silently, and an invisible gale instantly surged up, unleashing an astonishing suction force that struggled to pull at the enormous Corpse of "Sea God" Kalvetua.
