The nas from Vita’s experint records mostly appeared here; many of these blue dots represented the experint locations associated with those nas, all of which were various Temples. This gave Alka so understanding of Vastva’s power structure.
First, a Great Tutor was required to host an experintal project and possess a Temple. The corresponding military role was the Great Warrior. Alka found relics of Great Warriors at two of the blue dots, where the remains clearly indicated weapons and equipnt. Further up were the Eye of Secret Technique and the Hand of War, who also controlled a Temple and oversaw research. Even higher was the High Priest, leading the four major Temples. Alka wondered if this was the peak of power, or if soone with even greater authority existed above them. Based on this information, Vastva seed to operate more like a council system.
Alka continued clicking the white dots until he finally selected the one he was looking for.
[Observation Hall Museum]
[Difficulty: Hunter (Four Spirals)]
[Fa: 0]
[Treasure Information: Vastva’s diplomatic reception center and a must-visit place for all first-ti guests to Vastva. It provides detailed insights into Vastva’s developnt from its establishnt to the present, describing the growth of Vastva’s people and the doctrine of the Divided Divines, serving as Vastva’s external face.]
I found it! Thankfully, this place is a white dot, Alka thought. He looked at the Treasure Information. This ans that by finding this place, I can get a comprehensive understanding of the city of Vastva, he realized. Not to ntion, whether it’s for the golden light or the orange light, I’ll definitely get more information. Especially since this spot’s difficulty is only Four Spirals. That’s incredibly simple. There’s basically no danger.
Alka looked at his position on the map. It was located slightly to the right of the island’s center. While not close to the town, it wasn’t excessively far either.
Alka made his decision. The next target will be this place. After learning more about Vastva from the museum, I’ll check the information from those two light spots. Then, I’ll go claim that golden light.
After determining the target and planning the route, Alka relaxed and stored away the map.
After resting for a while, his thoughts turned to Balazs, who had invited them for that evening. According to Chadite, Balazs was not a believer of the Holy Mother, yet he had simply concealed it a bit. Perhaps he didn’t even consider that the Holy Mother would truly bestow blessings upon every one of Her believers, Alka mused. But regardless of who he made such preparations for, it’s quite strange.
Alka and the others had certainly not exposed their belief in the Holy Mother on the island; they hadn’t even perford any gestures. In contrast, Simon and Matilda had made prayer gestures for their respective Divines. Even if he was pretending to curry favor, he shouldn’t have used the Holy Mother’s gesture. Unless...
At this thought, Alka squinted. Unless he realized that I and the others believe in the Holy Mother. I’m the leader, and believers in the Holy Mother form the majority in our group. Chadite, Jason, Juanlu, and I are all natives of the Holand Sea and believe in the Holy Mother. If he can discern my faith, could he also perceive the Treasures our team possesses? After all, although our team is small, the number of Treasures we hold is considerable. A total of five Treasures! That’s an absolutely astounding quantity. Yet, among our team, the strongest is only at Seven Spirals, while Balazs is clearly a Third Stage individual.
Within the sa Stage, it’s not uncommon for those at Low Spiral to defeat those at High Stage using superior numbers or other tactics. But battling across Stages is not a simple matter. The power disparity when crossing even one Stage is trendous. Unless I reach Second Stage Perfection, I can’t guarantee victory over Balazs. This is just a gut feeling. Either he truly can’t see these things, or he sees much more than he lets on. After all, if he can tell that so of us believe in the Holy Mother, he can surely perceive that other team mbers believe in other Divines. He would also realize that our group has followers of all four Divines. Except for Juanlu and Lucilia, the rest of us could be considered Church Staff. Even seeing just this much would be enough reason for him to try and befriend us.
Thinking to this point, Alka stopped wrestling with these thoughts. It’s just as I initially thought: if he intended to harm us, inviting us to a banquet would be the stupidest move. He could have easily exploited our unfamiliarity with the Endless Sea to set traps or launch ambushes from various places. Balazs seems more inclined to befriend us, offering help while we’re most disoriented, having just arrived in the Endless Sea. Offering help in tis of need is always more valuable than adding to what one already has in abundance.
After dispelling these botherso thoughts, Alka returned to his room and subrged himself in the Dream Realm. He simply cleared the dream creatures near everyone. Then he flew to where Balazs’s crew was located. Although he felt the information from Balazs’s conversation earlier was highly credible, he still decided to verify it himself.
