A Top Scholar in Everything
Chapter 1348 - 1334: Scheming
Speaking of the wonderful uses of Dragon Blood,
the half-deer man spoke eloquently, clearly experienced and an aficionado.
Baiyu learned a lot from him,
gaining knowledge about Dragon Blood.
As a material for medicine,
this is one of the common uses of Dragon Blood.
Baiyu asked,
and finally discovered the address of the half-deer man’s enemy, which was in the Chaotic Star Realm. A dragon’s range of activities is vast and never confined to one place or planet, so the entire Star Realm could be its territory.
Although finding this dragon seemed like searching for a needle in a haystack,
at least they could confirm that there were indeed dragons in the Chaotic Star Realm.
Two months quickly passed.
Baiyu finally received news from Ai Wei on the Bone Ship: "Let’s depart. We’re heading to the Chaotic Star Realm."
With a rumble,
the Legendary Ship and the Bone Ship both commenced at the same time.
And as the City Lord of the Great City, Ai Wei, with ample supplies, unveiled a starship even larger than the Bone Ship.
Of course,
it was the shrunken Bone Ship.
Still, it was quite terrifying, considering regular starships have tonnage limitations and can’t grow indefinitely.
The enlargement of its size,
entails advanced technologies like propulsion systems,
and defensive technologies,
all of which must be considered when building a starship. It’s not just about flying but also defending, combating, and facing cosmic storms.
Therefore,
the larger the starship, the more advanced technology is required, increasing the cost of construction.
Ai Wei’s starship led the way, with Vivian and Lilith each having their own starships, forming a small fleet.
Even ordinary interstellar pirates would likely avoid them.
Baiyu took a deep breath,
following Ai Wei all the way to the Chaotic Star Realm.
Alfred didn’t accompany them; he seemed to have other matters and stayed behind in the Church of the Flame Sect.
In the cathedral of the Church, Guli Ming, clad in a red robe, asked in a low voice, "Could the Scar God really just let her go like that?"
"Yes,"
Alfred replied calmly, "Did you see anything? As the great prophet of the Flame Sect, you should have received some revelations by now, right?"
Guli Ming nodded, not playing coy, "Flames, burning flames everywhere. I saw it—war has come. She will bring the war."
Alfred wasn’t surprised, calmly stating, "War, this thing truly is nostalgic."
The Scar God,
also known as the War God,
With Alfred’s tone and expression, Guli Ming felt uneasy, "Does the Scar God know she will incite war... Is this His will?"
"No, my Lord never actively seeks war. Though known as the War God, my Lord enjoys the status quo and loathes upheaval. War would obviously change the world’s order,"
Alfred explained.
Guli Ming frowned, "In that case..."
"It’s the gods seeking change,"
Alfred slowly explained, "This current situation has persisted for too long, and those without Divine Office are restless.
Some divine positions,
have been vacant for too long and need filling.
Of course,
the most needed is the Second Dawn..."
Hearing the words "Second Dawn," Guli Ming trembled, almost losing his composure.
"You mean the gods are preparing to resurrect the Sun?"
"Yes. This was foretold in the prophecy left behind when the Sun was Split; it shall rise again in the Second Dawn. And now, the time has come.
The pilgrimage has begun.
The elements for the Sun’s resurrection are slowly being gathered,
and the Daughter of the Sun is reborn from the flames..."
Alfred hinted.
Guli Ming realized and was greatly shocked, "You mean that person, the woman reborn from the planet’s core!"
"Yes, she is the Child of the Sun, once the Sun Goddess. Although her path follows the Earth Rules, her authenticity is undeniable. Otherwise, why else would Scars and the Forge lend her aid?"
Alfred’s eyes sparkled, "If the Sun rises again, human civilization will continue for countless eras."
Guli Ming took a deep breath, nodding silently.
The death of the Sun,
was actually orchestrated by the Forge.
It was a necessary step for transformation; although the Sun was the Venerable of the Dream Realm, the mightiest Divine Spirit, it lacked consciousness, a chaotic light mass, a radiant mass.
Only through the Forge’s remolding,
could it gain true freedom and rebirth.
Could it truly become the Venerable of the entire Dream Realm, even the whole universe.
The Second Dawn,
is the Sun’s resurrection ceremony,
and this ceremony has formally begun with the Daughter of the Sun’s pilgrimage.
...
After traversing several Teleportation Arrays, Baiyu reached the edge of the Chaotic Star Realm.
Passing several planets,
they found all on high alert, with defensive Levels set to maximum. As Baiyu and the others approached, they were warned off.
Later,
Baiyu and his companions heard from an Interstellar Passenger Ship that war was coming.
However,
this time it wasn’t against other races.
The Mechanical Race, Demon Race, and Asura Race had already withdrawn from the Galaxy; in the previous last battle, the Mechanical Race was decisively defeated and retreated to their home systems.
Yet,
this conflict was internal,
a new force quietly rose in the darkness, challenging the Imperial authority. An antiquated empire was due for renewal.
This force was surprisingly vast,
and had ignited conflict in several Star Realms.
These individuals,
had indeed achieved something, seemingly supported in secret by several Churches.
For a moment,
Baiyu fell into deep thought.
What was going on?
Was the Church aiming to overthrow the Imperial reign?
When he talked with Ai Wei, she replied, "The Imperial elite have been decadent and useless for too long. Each one is a bloated parasite, gnawing away at the Empire’s flesh. Now, the gods have decided to act against the Empire.
With the Forge’s consent,
the Empire will be infused with new blood."
Baiyu pondered Ai Wei’s words and somberly asked, "Are you also carrying out other tasks this time?
For instance,
repaying the debt to Scars and the Forge."
