Chapter 1036: Chapter 907: Assembly and the Human Shield

South of the Peacock Islands, Beagle City is the religious sanctuary of the Negritos.

This is the core station of the Varna Sect, as they worship a series of gods with the "King of the Ivory Throne" Lan Tigos as their main deity, thus this place is also known as the "Holy Land".

At this moment.

A young lady dressed in a snow-white gown resembling jasmine flowers, wearing red high heels, and standing out starkly against the black-skinned aboriginal women, rushed through the narrow streets like a beautiful white swan.

Despite trying to maintain her composure, she occasionally turned back to glance behind her, biting her ruby red lower lip gently with her pristine white teeth:

"Damn it, this troublesome guy just won’t give up.

Even though I need materials for the promotion ceremony to become a Crowned Wizard, I shouldn’t have come to the ’Peacock Islands’, such a ghostly place extremely unfriendly to women!"

The girl with silver-gray long hair, although sweetly dressed, had a somewhat tough temperament on her delicate face. Even while escaping, she still appeared very assertive.

Not anyone else but Miss Kongyu, the other Inheritor of the "Clock Tower" school besides Milan, who else could it be?

But she was clearly in no small trouble now.

In the crowded and chaotic alleys, a young man who could be described as "coldly elegant", followed leisurely behind her, seemingly unnoticed by anyone.

Passersby involuntarily circled around him, and even the baskets and clay urns by the roadside seemed afraid to block his path, each one quietly moved aside.

The man had short white hair, red eyes, lips curling with a charming smile, seemingly quite enjoying the game of hide-and-seek with Miss Kongyu.

As he watched the hurried young lady ahead, he appeared sincere:

"Ah! Beautiful Nimansite young lady, although I don’t know your name yet, please believe me, I have fallen deeply in love with you.

Would you marry me? You’ll be my only.

Of course, if you’re running to get my attention, I can clearly tell you, you’ve succeeded! Don’t waste any more effort."

Unable to tolerate this guy’s overbearing CEO tone, Kongyu felt a shiver run through her body, disregarding the vast disparity in power, she outright cursed:

"Bullshit! Kaiamo, do you think I don’t know? Just within the divine catalog, you have recorded at least fifty wives!"

"Child of the Shadows of the Mountains," "Dark Ruler" Kaiamo, just the name’s style indicates a demigod born on the Peacock Islands.

Possessing powers like [Illusion], [Illusion], [Shadow of the Earth], etc., although not as great as the Main God "King of the Ivory Throne", he was one of the demigods with the largest following on the Peacock Islands.

Among the Negritos, what was more talked about were his numerous consorts, the tales of his romances could last for days.

"Haha, I’ve never experienced refusal, very good, I’m even more interested in you now!"

"Psycho!"

Not wanting to entangle with this guy coveting her beauty, Kongyu took out a silver pocket watch and threw it to the ground.

Swish——!

The ground turned into a bright silver, rippling like water, reflecting a world identical to the real one but upside down, she leaped into it.

[Magic-like Technique: Mirror Image Gap]

Effect: Able to open doors anywhere in the world, no barrier can block her steps, even in the space-rule chaotic "Broken Star Sea".

This was also the reason she dared to say no to a demigod.

"Interesting!"

Kaiamo stroked his chin and gently stamped his foot, a shadow engulfed his body similarly.

...

On the west side of the Material World "Broken Star Sea", just a short distance from the world’s end "Golden Kingdom".

In the night.

A uniquely shaped, large dark blue sailing battleship with three back-sloping masts resembling fish fins, equivalent to a Level 1 Battleship size, rarely seen on the sea in recent years.

It appeared to have grown out of the sea, unmoving amidst the chaotic waves.

Precisely the long unseen Legendary Battleship: Sea Soul.

Mostly because at Aiven’s home now, there were almost too many Legendary Battleships to sail, if not taken out to air, it might mold.

Of course, he would never admit it.

Facing the unknown risks of the "Endless Ocean" Phorcys, neither the Crown of Miracles nor the Gem River would be willing to part.

And possessing self-repair ability, the Sea Soul, with half of its thirty-year usage nearing completion, was the best choice.

Standing on the bow tower, Aiven casually tossed a Bronze Talisman resembling the original Life Divine Position.

Except this one was deathly stagnant, completely devoid of any divinity, precisely the dormant "Feathered Serpent God" Kukulkan.

For Aiven, it was a simple task, once reaching "Behind the Door", toss the thing into "Endless Ocean" Phorcys, the deal was done, he wouldn’t bother with it afterward.

And [Harvest], [Storm], [Morning Star], these three divine positions, he could accept with peace of mind.

Suddenly.

The moonlight above faintly brightened.

Two black-haired "maidens" with about seven or eight similarities, hand in hand descended from the sky, gently landing beside Aiven.

Among the two who were like sisters.

The slightly younger one looked around sixteen or seventeen years old, with a pair of beautiful eyes as brilliant as sapphire stars. The other with eyes like emeralds looked definitely no older than twenty.

Though simply dressed and without makeup, they inexplicably emanated a radiance of jewels from their bodies, making them appear like two perfect jade figures.

They were Nymph and Olivia, mother and daughter, who volunteered to carry out the scouting mission.

"Aiven, mom and I have searched everywhere within a hundred kilometers. In the material world, the dream realm, and the corresponding spirit realm, there’s no trace of evil gods or their beloved ones.

We were not followed."

"Alright, understood."

From the summer of 201 until now, in the past six months with ample resources and knowledge, Nymph, Olivia, and Angie have successively completed the ascent to Crowned Wizard.

As the chief of the Gem School, Olivia, although lacking a patron, has awakened powers that are closer to the essence of the Mysterious Source: Rose Mother than Nymph’s.

Forbidden Curse: Rose Soul

"Taiyi differentiation, perfect integration of material and spirit."

She almost possesses a third of the power of the Mysterious Source: Rose Mother, manipulating the Fifth Element besides earth, wind, water, and fire in this world.

It’s a microcosm corresponding to the macrocosm, containing the origin of all things and capable of exerting immense influence on matter, bodies, especially souls.

Carefree traversing dreams and the spirit realm with Nymph under the light of the moon was but a trivial application.

Turning wood to steel, stones to gemstones, seawater to a six-barreled cannon with bare hands was just a piece of cake.

Plus, all ’Treasure Maidens’ created by the Soul Returning Technique, including Three-no Girl Baihe, received significant enhancements, providing strong support to the Crowned Wizards.

Nevertheless, among the three Crowned Wizards, Angie was the one who soared to greatness.

The girl, just like Aiven, found comfort under the shade of a big tree, and upon ascending to Crowned Wizard, was already granted Divinity by World Consciousness.

And Aiven’s earlier guess was indeed right.

The Golden Chain is the Life Code of World Consciousness; though not possessing a subjective consciousness, this planet named Herag could still be considered an incomparably enormous living entity.

However, its existence form is something even ordinary humans and gods find difficult to comprehend.

Through the mysterious resonance of the Golden Holy Spear: Lance, Angie, like Aiven before her, received two points of Divinity at the moment of ascension, becoming an initially immortal Divine Creature.

And Aiven already granted her the Harvest Divine Position and began establishing a church system, expecting results after this adventure.

Turning back to look at the eager members of the exploration team on the battleship’s deck.

On this journey, Aiven streamlined his personnel, assembling only the elite of the Duchy into an expedition dream team.

The team core consisted of Tier 5 Truth Embodiment, God of All Things Fertile Aiven; magic users: three Crowned Wizards Olivia, Angie, Nymph;

physical side representatives: two Titled Knights "Jade Light" Anita, "Rose Crown" Liweina.

Astrologer: Upper-Rank Wizard Milan, and the most experienced navigator who had delved into the Storm Belt: Upper-Rank Wizard Jelos.

Especially during this more than half a year, Liweina successfully nurtured Titled Sacred Artifact: Wounded Red Rose: Ashtar using the Divinity of the God of Desire, Sidi.

Thus, excluding the gods of the material world, this team should be able to sweep everything before them.

However, a pre-arranged member was still missing.

Just a mere thought.

Swirling...

A vortex-like blue hole opened outside the ship’s rail, and a giant over three meters tall, clad in brown bone-armored, with wild hair and a vast visage, skillfully leaped onto the deck.

"Haha, Mr. Kraken is here."

"Your Majesty Galliot! The Brotherhood was a bit restless, delayed a bit."

The King of Sea Monsters pounded his chest in salute.

The Duchy maintained good relations with the Tempest Church entrenched in the Eye of the Storm, not estranging.

It was just over the years the personnel receiving Aiven changed constantly, from Pope Fisher to the King of Sea Monsters, Kraken, eventually to the Black Sea Goddess, Hipponeo personally.

The reasoning just like "sit, please sit, please sit at the head" or "tea, brew tea, brew good tea," universally applies, ancient and modern alike.

Seeing all nine members finally assembled, Aiven was just about to signal Vinya to summon the Golden Kingdom to open the Gate.

Whoosh!

Amidst the silver ripples, a beautiful figure in a white dress suddenly leaped from the sea.

Cheerfully greeted them without a hint of foreignness:

"Hi, Your Majesty Galliot, and dear... second seat!"

"Miss Kongyu? You..."

"Didn’t you guys say you wanted to take me as a concubine? I’ve agreed, hurry, hurry, it doesn’t matter who, just get married immediately!"

Aiven and Milan simultaneously... leaned back tactically.
