Although the "God of Luck" and the "Calamity Seal" are both "," from this round of "long-distance confrontation," it’s clear that neither of them is an easy opponent!
But for , their mutual targeting is actually a good thing...
For example, these so-called "Three Divine Artifacts" can beco a ready-made support for in the future when I deal with the "God of Luck’s" follow-up moves.
Heh, in other words, compared to the "God of Luck," the "Calamity Seal" thinks I’m easier to deal with?
Of course, this is most likely a gift it left for Giuseppe...
Ebner closed the book and let out a quiet sigh.
At this mont, an elderly man dressed in a retro long robe, with white hair and beard, entered the temple surrounded by an ard squad.
His expression was solemn, and he was holding a golden seal in his hands.
Because Ebner had used a secret technique to reduce his sense of presence, the ard personnel around actually could not see him. They only vaguely sensed that sothing was wrong, yet could not determine the source of the anomaly.
However, the elderly man holding the golden seal made a brief judgnt and then walked straight toward Ebner’s direction.
He only stopped when he was a few steps away from Ebner, then organized his words and spoke:
"Your Excellency, I am the Chairman of the ’Foundation,’ Gold Jin...
"Please show yourself. I have important matters to convey to you."
As he spoke, his gaze kept sweeping around, yet he was never able to et Ebner’s eyes.
He can roughly judge my position but can’t see ... Is he relying on the power of that ’seal’? Ebner frowned slightly. If he didn’t know that the Solen family’s angelic evil spirit had always been residing in a seal in the real world, he would definitely think that this golden seal was one of the "Three Divine Artifacts," the "Seal."
While Ebner was thinking, the old man nad Gold Jin repeated his words once more:
"...I have important intelligence to convey to you..."
Hearing this, Ebner ca back to his senses. After hesitating for a few seconds, he lifted his secret technique and simply appeared out of thin air in front of the other party.
The surrounding ard squad did not panic at the sight. They often encountered similar scenes in the "Inner World," but their nerves still tensed up.
"Relax, then withdraw from the temple... This Excellency has no ill intent," the old man turned around and smiled as he instructed the squad mbers.
His authority seed very high. Even though the ard squad clearly showed concern, they still carried out the order.
After only the old man nad Gold Jin and Ebner were left, the forr placed the golden seal back into "Roselle’s" hands, then bowed and said:
"Your Excellency, the Saint foretold your arrival... According to the Saint’s final instructions, the ’Foundation’ will follow your commands."
The Foundation? Hmm, that’s a Roselle would co up with, and what this organization is doing now is indeed quite similar to the real "Foundation"... Ebner muttered to himself inwardly, but outwardly asked:
"Tell about the origins and current situation of your ’Foundation.’"
Although upon seeing the other party he had already "seen through" most of it, due to the restrictions of the "Ghost Empire," so key links were still missing.
The old man seed to have anticipated this question long ago. Without much hesitation, he replied:
"Your Excellency, the ’Foundation’ holds the highest authority in this world... And our mission is to delay this world’s destruction as much as possible, while waiting for your arrival..."
Next, he began to recount the origins of the "Foundation" and its developnt over more than a hundred years.
It turned out that when Roselle’s chanical puppet entered this world, the situation here was already quite dire.
The Spirit World and reality drawing ever closer, and the gradual disappearance of the barrier between them, caused many ordinary people to suddenly mutate into monsters, wantonly attacking others with low spirituality.
The remaining humans could only hide and cling to life.
But Roselle’s arrival gave the people of this world hope. Not only did he bring "civilization," he also added "new rules" to the two worlds, making the "Inner World" itself more "orderly"... at least it had rules to follow when invading the "Outer World."
After that, Roselle’s "chanical puppet" attempted to resolve the root of the disaster, but not only did it fail, it also exhausted the puppet’s "energy," making it unable to maintain normal operation...
However, before completely crashing, he handed the "Holy Seal" to the "Foundation" that he had personally trained, told them how to barely use the "Holy Seal" by relying on the "chanical puppet," and finally left behind a "prophecy"...
"Wait... you said ’Holy Seal’? This golden seal is the ’Holy Seal’? Roselle called it the ’Holy Seal’?" Ebner interrupted in surprise.
Gold Jin nodded and said, "Yes. It has always been called the ’Holy Seal.’ It is Saint Roselle’s most precious treasure. Only ’Urban Legend Rules’ stamped with the ’Holy Seal’ can take effect."
The "Holy Seal" is this golden seal... Then what was the seal that once housed the Solen family’s last angelic evil spirit? I rember that it was once Roselle’s imperial seal...
Was it a spare for the "Holy Seal"? Or was it purely a decoy imitation to mislead others?
Hmm... judging from the outco, that Sauron family evil spirit has now completely separated from the "seal." If it really were the "Holy Seal," it would effectively have already been "destroyed."
Roselle foresaw that the "seal" would be destroyed, so he made a substitute and placed it outside, while hiding the real one within the "Ghost Empire"?
Then who was it that destroyed the "seal"?
Wait, I rember that when "searching" the soul of Jason Beria, the "Apostle of Desire" who attacked my teacher, I obtained so related intelligence...
The Andrelad family had used a seal-type high-tier Sealed Artifact in their struggle with the other two major demon families... It could bring misfortune to people;
It was an item Duke Yaldabaoth handed to the Andrelad family to wield;
Yaldabaoth was Roselle’s adopted son. It was only natural for the old Huang-crafted seal to end up in his hands...
So, was this a series of "arrangents" carried out by Yaldabaoth to destroy the "seal"?
Why would he do that?
That’s right—Yaldabaoth’s birth is inextricably linked to the "God of Luck." He was one of the products of the latter’s "Soul Stone" experints.
If he actually represented the interests of the "God of Luck," then everything makes sense...
Sothing that would affect the "God of Luck’s" future dominance would naturally need to be destroyed.
Yet he didn’t choose to do it himself, instead letting others’ hands accomplish it.
Thinking carefully, the Nors family and the Berith family, who directly collided with that possibly counterfeit "seal," were almost completely wiped out by ;
The Loen royal family, which later obtained the seal, was destined to beco my enemy;
And Ince Zangwill, who ultimately caused the complete separation of the seal and the evil spirit within... would probably not escape calamity either!
Yaldabaoth clearly knew these consequences, which was why he didn’t act personally!
However, he probably never imagined that what Roselle left for him was rely a high-quality fake...
