[You have obtained the Clone Function!]

John stared at the new function that had suddenly appeared on the Holy Grail’s interface, looking somewhat dumbfounded.

What was going on?

Why had he suddenly obtained a clone function?

Without hesitation, he opened the detailed description of the function and examined it.

[Holy Grail Clone]

[Usage Requirement]: Consume S-grade equipment or items to refine a clone. The clone’s level and strength will be identical to the original body, and the original body may control the clone at any time.

[Note]: A clone is classified as an equipment-type item and can be carried, stored, or released at will.

After reading the introduction to the clone function, John’s eyes lit up.

Wasn’t this function clearly giving him a way to travel to Hess Continent? 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

After all, the description explicitly stated that a clone belonged to the item category. Since that was the case, he could simply have Odelle carry his clone back to Hess Continent with her.

With this thought in mind, John immediately took out a large pile of S-grade equipment and items.

He had previously killed far too many players and magical beasts. The S-grade equipment they dropped had long since filled his inventory to the brim. Taking out a pile of them to refine clones was no problem at all.

Meanwhile, when Odelle saw the heap of S-grade items spread across the table, she instantly fell into a daze.

As a player, she could clearly sense that the power of laws contained within these items was extraordinarily dense.

Furthermore, she discovered that not a single one of these pieces of equipment was a duplicate. This meant that the power of laws contained within each item was entirely different.

She looked at John with even greater respect in her eyes.

To casually take out so many pieces of equipment imbued with different powers of law, this lord must possess an extraordinary status within the God Realm.

...

Looking at the huge pile of S-grade items on the long table, John activated the clone function without hesitation.

[You have consumed 10 pieces of S-grade equipment and refined Clone No. 1!]

[You have consumed 10 pieces of S-grade equipment and refined Clone No. 2!]

[You have consumed 10 pieces of S-grade equipment and refined Clone No. 3!]

John created a full total of five clones before finally stopping upon reaching the maximum limit.

He then put away all the remaining equipment before opening the clone storage panel to check their attributes.

[Holy Grail Clone]

[Level]: Level 200

[Class]: All Classes Unlocked

[Talents]: Wrath of the Raider (SSS), Absolute True Damage (SSS), Wrath Sovereign (SSS), Lord of Beasts (SSS), Dominion Lord (SSS), Sacred Healing (SSS), Wrathborn (SSS), etc.

[Special Talent]: Reincarnator

[Attributes]: Strength, Agility, Mind, and Stamina are identical to the original body.

[Skills]: Godshadow (SS), Sunpiercer (SS), Lightning Double (SS), Lightning Chain (SS), Annihilation of All (SS), Phantom Blink (SS), Curse Resistance (S), Fall Resistance (S), Poison Resistance (S), War Smoke (A)

...

The clone’s status panel was indeed exactly identical to his original body’s. Apart from lacking sufficient equipment, its combat power was completely the same as his own.

With a casual wave of his hand, five clones identical in appearance to John instantly appeared within the Holy Grail space.

"My lord, these are...?"

Odelle’s pupils contracted sharply as she stared at the five clones that had suddenly appeared before her.

Never in her wildest dreams had she imagined that this lord could be so powerful that he was able to casually create five clones of himself.

At this moment, John spoke. "Try and see whether you can store these five clones and bring them back to Hess Continent with you.

"Once they arrive there, each clone will contain a fragment of my soul under my control. You will need to cooperate with these clones and assist me in completing certain tasks."

Hearing this, Odelle revealed a somewhat helpless smile.

"My lord, I can indeed carry a portion of items back to Hess Continent, but I can bring only one clone at most. My apologies."

As she spoke, she reached out a hand toward one of the clones.

The next moment, John felt his clone enter a mysterious space.

He could not help feeling slightly regretful. He had not expected that she would be unable to bring all five clones over together.

If all five clones could be transported there at once, they could probably sweep across the entirety of Hess Continent in an instant.

However, this outcome was not necessarily bad either. Bringing only one clone over would allow him to scout the way first, avoiding the risk of sacrificing all five at once.

After thinking for a moment, John said, "Once you return to Hess Continent, my clone will help the players on your side attempt to break through the level restriction.

"Perhaps, with a portion of my strength, I may be able to discover some clues."

Odelle’s eyes immediately brightened upon hearing this.

"Thank you, my lord! If you can truly help us break through the level restriction, we will never forget your great kindness for all eternity!"

At this moment, John raised his hand slightly.

The next instant, an additional symbol appeared on Odelle’s Holy Grail.

This was a new function he had discovered together with the clone function. Through the connection between the Holy Grails, he could clearly learn the condition of any player who had previously entered this space.

"From today onward, you are a member of my Heroic Spirit Society," John declared. "In the future, more and more members will join us. This organization of ours shall be one that spans countless heavens and myriad worlds."

Odelle’s breathing grew rapid upon hearing this.

Never in her wildest dreams had she imagined that this lord’s existence was of such a lofty level. He could even cross countless worlds and establish an organization spanning all of them.

She hurriedly rose to her feet and nodded respectfully.

"This subordinate greets the guild leader!"

John nodded slightly. "Very well. Take my clone with you. As for the matter of Hess Continent’s level restriction, my clone will help you resolve it."

At this moment, Odelle was so overwhelmed with emotion that she almost began to cry.

She bowed deeply toward John. Then, her figure disappeared from the Holy Grail space.

At the same time, John could sense that his clone had followed her into a spacetime passage leading toward another world.

Within the spacetime passage, Odelle felt both excited and deeply moved.

She rejoiced inwardly, Thank goodness I didn’t casually sell off this Holy Grail back then, but kept it with me all this time. Now, I have finally encountered an enormous opportunity.

That lord just now may very well be the only hope for us players of Hess Continent to ever break through the level restriction!

I knew it! The game officials would never simply allow us players to sit helplessly and wait for our end. Perhaps that lord is the path of survival the game specially prepared for us players!

Odelle checked the clone stored within her private space. A bright light flickered in her beautiful eyes.

If this clone can help me break through the level restriction, then I may become the first player in Hess Continent to ascend to Saint-tier!

When that time comes, all the players of Hess Continent will have to acknowledge me as their leader!

At the thought of this, Odelle felt her entire body tremble with excitement.

...

Meanwhile, inside the Holy Grail space, new words quietly appeared in the diary that had reappeared in the reading area.

[Diary]

[Content]: Today, I founded an organization known as the Holy Spirit Society. In addition, I discovered the connection between the main Holy Grail and the subsidiary Holy Grails. In order to expand the reach of this organization even further, I sent all twenty-three subsidiary Holy Grails through the chaotic currents of spacetime and delivered them to other civilizations. I look forward to the day when members who possess these Holy Grails return to the Holy Grail space once more.

As there was almost no sound accompanying the strange phenomenon here, John did not notice any of this.

After glancing around his surroundings, his figure flashed, and he too withdrew from the Holy Grail space.
