[Hint: The player has triggered a side mission-The Lost Sealing Item.]
Mission na: The Lost Sealing Item-The Sigh of the Compassionate.
Mission difficulty: SSS.
Mission description: The sealing item that the Sealing Art Association helped the Holy Court craft was taken by Ron and has since disappeared. You believe this sealing item may play a critical role in sealing Sulhog.
Mission requirents: Go to the War Ruins World and attempt to retrieve the sealing item crafted by the Sealing Art Association-The Sigh of the Compassionate.
Mission reward: 50,000 King of Gods' points.
Fang Heng saw the ga hint appear and nodded silently. The reward was ordinary, but the mission clearly defined the goal and location.
The old man stroked his graying beard and continued, "Fang Heng, our sealing art school has always remained neutral as a third party. In the past, we've never been involved in the wars between factions. Do you understand what I an?"
"Of course."
"So this matter, our association cannot assist, and you will have to find a way yourself."
"I understand. The association has already helped a lot, and no matter the outco, this matter will not involve the Sealing Art Association."
Fang Heng respectfully bowed to the instructors of the association.
The Sealing Art Association couldn't help, but the undead council should have so way to assist.
Besides, if he caused so trouble within the Holy Court, it might help distract pressure on the undead council's side.
After returning to Miyisca Fortress, Fang Heng initially planned to speak with the undead council about the current progress, but when he arrived at the main hall, he was inford that President Georgi and several high-ranking mbers of the council were in seclusion.
In seclusion?
Fang Heng was sowhat puzzled.
Still thinking about seclusion at this ti?
Fang Heng was puzzled when he coincidentally ran into Ji Xiaobo coming from outside.
"Brother Fang!"
Ji Xiaobo, seeing Fang Heng, imdiately showed a joyful expression and hurriedly caught up, saying, "Brother Fang, I heard you've been undergoing special training in sealing art? How's the progress?"
"Brother Fang!"
Ji Xiaobo, seeing Fang Heng, imdiately showed a joyful expression and hurriedly caught up, saying, "Brother Fang, I heard you've been undergoing special training in sealing art? How's the progress?"
"It's going okay."
Fang Heng shrugged and showed a hint of helplessness, "But there's still a gap in sealing Sulhog."
"It's fine, we still have ti."
Ji Xiaobo wasn't sure how big the gap Fang Heng was referring to was, but seeing Fang Heng's lack of enthusiasm, he assud there hadn't been much progress and comforted him, saying, "The undead council just awakened a holy weapon. It should help."
Fang Heng, who had heard about the holy weapon yesterday, imdiately asked, "What kind of holy weapon?"
"A holy weapon effective against resentnt. It was just found last night in the old warehouse. President Georgi is currently with a few instructors trying to awaken it. It'll probably take another day or two, and once the holy weapon is revived, Sulhog's strength will be greatly weakened."
Ji Xiaobo wasn't sure about the specifics of the holy weapon as he had only overheard a bit.
"Hmm..."
Fang Heng glanced at the closed council hall doors, realizing the instructors were busy with the holy weapon awakening. He decided not to interrupt and would ask about the specifics once they were done.
"Alright, what's the situation with the Holy Court recently?"
"The Holy Court?"
When Ji Xiaobo heard Fang Heng's question, he imdiately showed a look of frustration and said, "That bunch of dogs from the Holy Court, taking advantage of our focus on the death realm, are targeting us in various worlds and weakening the strength of our undead faction."
"Shi Lipeng over there is still negotiating with them, but the situation is dire. We receive requests for help almost daily. Many areas have already been cleared and taken over by the Holy Court."
Fang Heng frowned and asked, "Aren't the instructors going to intervene?"
"Right now, the main battles are taking place among players and in most low- to mid-tier ga worlds. Unless you appear on the battlefield, the Holy Court won't send higher combat forces to intervene."
"If the instructors step in, the Holy Realm will send higher combat forces to the battlefield as well. The instructors have analyzed it, and on one hand, all our elite strength is concentrated in the death realm, and we can't spare more to engage directly with the Holy Court on the frontlines. On the other hand, according to the council's estimation, if both we and the Holy Realm join the battle, we'll only fall into an even worse disadvantage."
Fang Heng curled his lips.
So, in the end, it's just that they could not compete in terms of hard power.
"Of course, I suspect that the Holy Court doesn't want to deploy high-tier combat forces into an all-out war either. Descent requires a lot of energy and faith, and recently, the Holy Court has been weakening. Many factions have raised concerns about them. The Holy Court wants to conserve its strength and avoid revealing any vulnerabilities."
"Also, the Holy Court has been pressuring various factions. They've unilaterally decided that our undead council has been protecting you, and they demand that the council hand you over if there's any chance of negotiation."
Upon hearing this, the undead council imdiately chose to remain firm.
But firmness aside, they still could not match the Holy Court's power.
In the end, all the burden fell on Shi Lipeng.
In Fang Heng's view, Shi Lipeng still had so skills.
Despite the clear difference in strength, Shi Lipeng had managed to stay in a standoff with the Holy Court, and at least on the surface, his strength hadn't been significantly diminished.
After listening for a while, Ji Xiaobo gradually ca to his senses and asked, "Brother Fang, why are you suddenly asking about the Holy Court?"
"Mm." Fang Heng nodded and explained, "When I went to study sealing arts, I learned sothing. The Holy Court once created a special auxiliary sealing tool to seal monsters. This thing could be effective against Sulhog, and I've been thinking about how I can get my hands on it."
Upon hearing this, Ji Xiaobo imdiately beca interested.
This sounded great!
Not only could they take a shot at the Holy Court, but they could also find a way to deal with Sulhog.
"Brother Fang, are we planning to take action against the Holy Court?"
"Yeah."
Fang Heng nodded lightly.
They were definitely going to take action.
However, he also had his concerns.
After the last ti, when he severely injured the Holy Realm's pursuers, it seed that their tracking had stopped. This sudden interruption didn't give him relief, but instead gave him a feeling of impending danger.
It felt like sothing big was brewing.
The Holy Court was likely preparing a major move.
It was a good opportunity to go to the Holy Court and check things out.
"Where to? Which world?"
"War Ruins World, do you know it?"
"I've heard of it. It's an advanced ga world controlled by the Holy Court, and there's no developnt for our undead faction there."
Ji Xiaobo was full of energy and imdiately turned to leave, "But no worries, the instructors should have a way. I'll contact them right away. Brother Fang, wait for , it won't take long..."
"Wait!"
Fang Heng stopped Ji Xiaobo, who was rushing off to gather help.
"What?"
"If I join the battlefield against the Holy Court, they will react and send a strong team from the Holy Realm to target us. So this matter has to be handled carefully. Don't let anyone know about it."
Ji Xiaobo's face beca serious, and he nodded, "Got it, Brother Fang. This will be kept strictly confidential."
"And, contact Shi Lipeng for ."
"Mm?"
"Isn't he under a lot of pressure from the war with the Holy Court? We're from the sa faction, so it would be good to lend him a hand. Helping him is also helping ourselves."
"Understood! Brother Fang! I'll handle it right away!"
