"Are you playing some strange role-playing game?" Fulisina ignored the captured believers and sized up Blake and his companion.

Screwllum still looked like Blake, while the latter was dressed as Cloud Knights, with even the degree of damage to his armor being a perfect replica; she even suspected he had been picked up on the spot.

"This is called meticulous attention to every detail, a unique and Eternity refinement! But... you can interpret it as role-playing."

After Blake finished answering, it was his turn to ask the question, "What shady things have you been doing, being so secretive?"

"Heh... you wouldn't understand." Fulisina scoffed. This was the legendary sense of ritual!

Screwllum wasn't idle either; he turned back to continue interrogating the prisoner of the [ Disciples of Sanctus Medicus ]: "What do you know about the Stellaron...?"

"That glowing seed? Haha, I've seen it before, it's so beautiful. Looking inside, you can hear voices and hear it speak... The leader said that with this, we can breathe new life into the [ Ambrosial Arbor ]."

"Hehe, I didn't believe it at first. We tried so many methods, and spent several lifetimes of Short-Life Species, but [ Ambrosial Arbor ] showed no sign of coming back to life."

"But look now... tsk tsk, [only the power of the Aeon can recreate Miracle ]. That's right... that's right! The great Medicine King [ Abundance ]!"

The believer's demeanor turned frenzied again, unable to stop talking once the Yaoshi was mentioned, and even wanted the three in front of him to join the [ Disciples of Sanctus Medicus ], awaiting the [ Abundance ]'s glance.

"Immortality..." The mechanical parts of the Screwllum whirred. "Can I take this to mean that you're trying to compete with [ Eternity ] in terms of lifespan?"

Elves, Intellitron, and those Long-Life Species... without the aid of [ Eternity ], any one of them could easily outlive the followers of [ The Disciples of Sanctus Medicus ]. In Screwllum's view, there was no comparison whatsoever.

The believer smiled and brought up the Ambrosial Arbor associated with " Abundance " again. "That's right! You saw it too, didn't you! The way the Ambrosial Arbor was reborn... Haha, how magnificent!"

"In an era when even the Long-Life Species could not recall the divine descent, the Medicine King [ Abundance ] bestowed the Ambrosial Arbor upon the Xianzhou Luofu. Through this divine tree, humanity achieved countless miracles: the Living Soil, the Worriless Wood, the Emanation of Freedom..."

"It's a pity that the Demon Bow destroyed everything, turned black into white, and erased all the achievements of the Medicine King... But it won't be long before we return to the prosperity of the era of divine descent!"

"You've seen the beasts that fought alongside us, haven't you? This is just a small favor from [ Ambrosial Arbor ]..."

Upon hearing this, Fulisina took the opposite approach, "Since you hate [ The Hunt ]... then join [ Eternity ]! Yite will not be stingy with your past; what the Lord of [ Abundance ] cannot give you, we can!"

The believer was clearly provoked by these words, shouting, "Shut up! How dare you... how dare you be so disrespectful to the Compassionate Medicine King!!"

Question: Which of her words just now insulted the [ Abundance ] Yaoshi? Please specify.

There were no vulgar words used; at most, it was just a reaction from the believer.

"Getting back to the point: what did you do to those Cloud Knights?" Screwllum pressed.

"What did we do? We healed our own compatriots! Trapped in weak flesh and blood, they must have been in so much pain..." When he looked up and met the Screwllum Intellitron pupils of the screw, he instantly burst into laughter.

Flesh and blood are weak and vulnerable. I originally wanted to persuade them to join the Disciples of Sanctus Medicus, but now it seems... mechanical ascension is the only true path.

The captured believer quickly dismissed the thought, "No... you don't understand, those who haven't received the blessing of the Medicine King for Long-Life Species don't understand!"

"What [ Mara-Struck ]? That's a second life bestowed by the Medicine King! It dissolves ego, grants an immortal body, and allows for a free and unrestrained life!"

Having said that, he looked at Fulisina with burning eyes. "I see a thirst for power in your eyes! Life is too short, isn't it? I can, I can make you..."

"Huh?" Blake almost lost his composure. Did this guy not even have the most basic common sense?

"Elf, don't be fooled by his sweet talk." Remembering that he was still wearing the armor of the Cloud Knights, Blake gave him a special reminder to ensure his words matched his status.

"Without the blessing of Abundance, you Short-Life Species cannot withstand this transformation."

"Sad..."

[Homage to the great Lord [ Eternity ]! Calling upon Chair Blake!! Requesting a soap-sized nuclear strike against the Lord Ravager!]

Blake suddenly looked up; he heard a voice calling out!

"Hmm? The Lord Ravager?" he murmured, his hand already instinctively reaching for the soap.

[ Chair Blake...]

The cries for help suddenly vanished, as if forcibly stopped. Blake immediately realized that Lord Ravager had attacked innocent civilians... No, that voice belonged to Star, who was about to join the Church and had already embarked on the Path [ Eternity ]!

Blake realized that this must be an extremely critical situation. He had Fulisina cast a tracking spell on the soap, took a step back, and threw it out with a very standard motion.

"May [ Eternity ] protect you, devout Trailblazer... well, saying that sounds a bit disrespectful to the Lord of [ Trailblaze ]."

"Ahem... May the [ Eternity ] [ Trailblaze ] always be with you." Blake clasped his hands together, offering his sincerest prayer to the star.

On the way to Scalegorge Waterscape, a lone boat stubbornly sails forward between the vast sea and sky, with sunlight like shattered gold dancing on the crests of the waves, and the salty sea breeze carrying the whispers of the waves.

"Ah~ This is exactly how it should be!" Enjoying the sea breeze, March 7th completely forgot that they were on their way to defeat the Lord Ravager.

The young Trailblaze did not choose to travel to the Scalegorge Waterscape Starskiff star raft, but instead opted for the most primitive method: traveling by boat.

I had originally planned to bring Welt along, but considering his age, I ultimately gave up on the idea.

You mean Ye Yan? He certainly wouldn't go along.

"Something's not right, it's too quiet." Ever since boarding this ship, a sense of unease has been lingering in Dan Heng's heart.

"Hiss..." March 7th shuddered. "Teacher Dan Heng, don't ruin this wonderful atmosphere! But now that you mention it, it really does feel like something's chasing after us..."

Every time March 7th utters such words, Xing knows that something dangerous is about to happen. She stands up to prepare for the unknown danger.

Apart from the Cloud-Piercer Spear in Dan Heng's hand, there are no sharp objects, so it's safe!

Looking behind me again, I saw no [ Disciples of Sanctus Medicus ] following me; I was still safe!

With both land and sea locations confirmed, now we'll see if there are any anomalies in the air.

Huh? What's that black dot? It seems to be getting closer...

Bang!

The soap-shaped bomb accurately hit the small boat carrying Xing and his companions, causing it to capsize shortly after it started moving.

"Where did this soap come from?!" Even as the boat capsized, March 7th couldn't resist complaining, it was all the same old routine.

"Soap?" Xing frowned, recalling the plea for help she had sent during their confrontation with Phantylia...

Oh no, it seems there's a delay on Chair Blake.

star:...

Dan Heng:...

March 7th:...

Friendly fire!
