Volume 6 Agate Chapter 521: Inheritance of the Last Will
The sun slowly rises from the sky.
Behind the endless Valdivia Snow Mountain Range, endless light shone out, and the dark world seemed to be illuminated all of a sudden.
In the country of Byron, on a mountain top, two tiny figures were sitting in each other's arms, looking at the sunrise in the distance.
Floy was lying on Chen Lun's lap, as lazy as a kitten. Feeling the light on her face, she slowly opened her purple eyes and immediately laughed.
"What are you laughing at?"
Chen Lun asked softly.
"It's like a dream..."
Floy's disembodied voice said.
"It all seemed like a dream, but when I opened my eyes I didn't wake up, and I didn't return to that dungeon without seeing the sun."
"It doesn't matter... Even if you go back there, you will still meet a young man named Jack, and he will say he will take you away."
Chen Lun looked up at the sun in the sky and said calmly.
Floy stared blankly at the handsome face so close to her. The dawn light shone on his deep facial features, and his peaceful eyes always brought her unparalleled peace of mind.
After a while.
"I'm dreaming again..."
Floy said slowly.
"After I was promoted to Sequence 5, I dreamed of that voice again... but this time, I saw its true appearance. It was an old lady who looked kind and amiable. She wore a black dress and had a purple chrysanthemum on her hair."
Chen Lun withdrew his gaze and looked down to see Floy's dazed expression.
Listening to Floy's narration, he immediately thought of the old woman he met in Amber City. At that time, he had doubted her identity... Later, he was able to confirm that she was one of the incarnations of the Moon Goddess, or her other side, Lady Silence.
“He told me not to continue along the Moon Path, as I could not advance to [Sequence Four—Ferryman]… I asked Him why, but He did not answer… Finally, He told me to do what I should do and not to worry about anything.”
Floy sat up from his lap and gently brushed the long light golden hair scattered on her forehead behind her ears. She looked at Chen Lun with purple eyes and asked in a low voice:
“You know who He is, don’t you?”
Chen Lun was silent for a few seconds and nodded slowly.
"Luna, Margaret."
"Moonlight Granny?!"
Floy's beautiful eyes gradually widened.
"Why does He keep appearing in my dreams and warning me not to continue trekking forward on the Moon Path..."
"There should be some kind of connection between you and the Moon God. I suspect it is blood... The Wolfe family was once a branch of the Matthew family, and the Matthew family was one of the three major families that split from the original human civilization and obtained the power of the moon."
Chen Lun looked at Floy and sighed.
Then he shook his head and said:
“But I don’t know why He warned me.”
He recalled the similarities between the Moon Path and the Black Sun Path, and combined with the warnings that the Moon Goddess had always given to Floy, he couldn't help but feel confused.
"Will something bad happen if Floy continues to advance? Or does the Moon Goddess not want her only remaining descendant to compete with Him for power after ascending to a high position?"
He fell into deep thought.
"Floy has not yet been promoted to a high position, so it is not too late to switch to the Black Sun Path. After all, the two paths are the same at the middle and low sequences... But what unknown changes will this bring?"
After a while.
Chen Lun felt that for safety reasons, they could wait a little longer. Right now, Floy had just been promoted to Sequence Five not long ago, and it would take some time for the mysterious accumulation before the Saint's promotion ceremony.
If she wanted to take the Black Sun Path at that time, she would have the mythological knowledge of [Sequence Four - Undead] in her hands. By consuming a certain amount of mythological power, she could use [Mind Transmission] to share it with her.
Then, Chen Lun remembered the last words that Floy had just said, which the Moon Goddess asked her to convey to him through her dream.
"Let me do what I should do, without any worries... Are you referring to Duke Huan's unfinished wishes and great deeds?"
Chen Lun's brows furrowed.
"Forget it... I'll go find His Majesty Oscar and ask him about it as soon as I get back."
…
…
…
It’s almost noon.
Chen Lun brought Fuluo back to the Generous Church in Lengye City.
After lunch, he went straight to Alex.
"I want to see His Majesty Oscar."
Chen Lun said to the blond young man lying in the garden pavilion.
"Um?"
Alex rolled over and looked at him in confusion.
"Who is Oscar? Mr. Jack, I don't know this man."
Chen Lun frowned slightly, he felt that Alex was not lying.
After thinking about it, he directly used [Siren's Song] and snapped his fingers in front of Alex.
Bang!
Alex blinked his eyes immediately, sleepiness overcoming his face. He yawned, stretched, then lay down with his butt raised and fell asleep.
After a few seconds, his pig-like snoring could be heard.
"Can I see His Majesty Oscar only through Alex's dream?"
Chen Lun's eyes were deep.
He tried to control himself to fall asleep, and at the same time used [Mind Steal] on Alex, trying to capture the scenes in his dream.
Just three breaths.
Chen Lun stood upright, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
But his consciousness was still quite clear. The environment in his dream did not need to be constructed slowly as before. Instead, he came directly to a huge luxurious villa.
The sky was very bright, even too bright, and it seemed extremely unreal and dreamy. The strong fragrance of flowers floated in the sight along with the petals. Alex, wearing a white suit and with his blond hair combed meticulously, was sitting lazily on the window sill of the villa, using a rose to hook up with the noble lady in the pink puffy skirt.
The beautiful girl with golden curly hair giggled. Alex frivolously pulled the girl's hand and kissed the back of her hand. The girl's cheeks immediately turned red.
Chen Lun looked at the scene in front of him and thought to himself, this is fun.
Then he said to Alex calmly:
"Your Majesty Oscar."
When Alex heard the voice, he turned his head and looked down, and was slightly stunned.
"Hey? Mr. Jack, why are you here?"
The blonde girl in the room also noticed the gentleman in the black hat standing downstairs, but she was completely different from the women in the real world. She showed an extremely disgusted look towards Chen Lun, turned her head and just stared at Alex with greed.
It seemed that in this dream, she only liked the man in front of her with all her heart.
Chen Lun did not answer Alex's words, but just waited silently.
After a while.
Silver circles appeared in Alex's eyes, his expression gradually became indifferent, and then he waved his hand.
The whole scene froze instantly.
The infatuated look of the blonde girl, the trees swaying in the wind, the floating petals and the dog running by, all seemed to be paused and frozen in place.
Alex, dressed in a white suit, floated in front of Chen Lun, smiling, and asked:
"Jack, since you came to me, you must have made a choice."
Chen Lun took off his hat and saluted him.
Then he asked in a deep voice:
"Before that, I want to confirm one thing with you."
"Speaking."
"Among the unfinished great deeds of Duke Huan's last wish... who are the seven gods?"
Chen Lun lowered his head slightly and expressed his doubts.
"Maybe I didn't explain it clearly enough, sorry..."
Oscar chuckled, then his tone gradually became serious.
"The seven gods that the Ring Office wants to hunt are Kingsley Wordswall, the 'Fierce Father of the Sun', Margaret, the 'Moon Goddess of Moonlight', Jessica Philomena, the 'Glorious Queen of the Stars', Marialena, the 'Lady of the Blood Goddess of Roses', Bankrotoff, the 'Old Man Buried in the Bones', Sebastian Pardo, the 'Eternal Sleeper of the Sea', and Montgomery, the 'God of Calendars'."
As He spoke, His sight seemed to drift to a distant place, and His voice became low:
"Now, the old man who buried the bones is dead, Madam Rose and Old Man Mud were both severely injured and could not come out, and the Eternal Sleeper has been suppressed and sealed... If you inherit Lord Huan's last wish, this is a critical era, and it is also the era when you are most likely to become a god. If you miss it, I am afraid that you will never have another chance in the future."
Oscar said this with certainty, even shaking his head with emotion.
Chen Lun memorized the real names of these gods, thought about it, and asked again:
"Then...what if a new god appears in the Seven Paths during this process?"
Oscar sneered and waved his hand.
"To kill or not to kill is up to you."
"I understand, Your Majesty."
Chen Lun answered respectfully.
But in my heart I was secretly complaining, how come it was like buying live fish at the market, and I could kill it or not as I pleased... I need to have the ability to do this.
Oscar raised his eyebrows and was about to say something, but he held back. After a pause, he asked:
"What is your choice?"
Chen Lun stood up and stared into Oscar's eyes.
After taking a deep breath, he said solemnly:
"I will inherit Duke Huan's last wish... and kill the Seven Gods!"
"very good."
Oscar smiled with satisfaction and even raised his hands to applaud.
It seemed that he admired his determination and courage.
Oscar immediately raised his hand, extended his index finger, and touched Chen Lun's forehead at a speed far beyond his reaction.
Suddenly, the vast and complex mythological knowledge came rushing in like an overwhelming torrent, instantly impacting Chen Lun's mind.
Chen Lun learned all the mythological knowledge about the sequel of the Path of Destiny [Sequence Three - Dramatist] and even the angel level [Sequence Two - Anonymous].
"Since you have chosen to inherit Duke Huan's last wish, then all of these will be yours... But as for higher-level knowledge, you are not yet able to bear it. To you, they are like the most terrible pollution and poison in the world. Knowing even a little bit of them may cause you to lose control... I will only give them to you when you have a higher sequence."
Oscar said calmly.
"I understand, Your Majesty, thank you."
With the help of the "Skull of Enlightenment", Chen Lun digested the knowledge in an instant, memorized it deep in his mind, and immediately thanked the other party.
But he soon had doubts again.
This comes from the angel ritual of [Sequence Two - Anonymous], which clearly mentioned the need for a "single divinity"...
'Howard once said that his ritual lacked me as the final component, which included the [Four Seasons Bookmark] in my hand, because its essence was the incomplete only divinity.'
Chen Lun thought about it and expressed his doubts about the "only divinity" to Oscar.
Oscar thought for a moment and said:
"The One Divine Nature is the One Authority, a great power that only angels and true gods possess... Since they are called 'One', they are naturally eternal and unchanging. Each path is fixed to have only ten copies, just like the ten paths of God."
He paused for a few seconds to let Chen Lun digest the information, and then added:
“True gods and angels may fall, but the One Divine is eternal and indestructible… Even if the world operates according to the extraordinary law of increasing entropy, and mysterious matter increases with pollution, there will not be more One Divines… To become an angel, you need at least one copy of the One Divine. If you want to be promoted to [Sequence One], you need two copies…”
Oscar finally bent down slightly and moved in front of Chen Lun.
He raised his palm, slowly opened it, and told him word by word:
"As for becoming a god, one must possess five parts of the 'sole divinity'."
Chen Lun frowned.
I thought to myself, no wonder there are so few angels from God on each path, this is the reason...
'There are only ten unique divinities... so if there is a true God, there are at most five angels on this path, and they are only [Sequence 2] angels. As for [Sequence 1], there can be at most two at the same time.'
Chen Lun thought to himself.
However, Oscar, as always, seemed to understand what he was thinking, smiled gently, and said:
"If the 'Unique Divinity' of this path is not enough, you can use the adjacent path as a substitute... Of course, this unknown unspoken rule only applies to [Sequence One] and above. At the same time, the 'Unique Divinity' of the adjacent path cannot be more than the 'Unique Divinity' of your own path, otherwise the path will be switched... But the probability of losing control is higher."
