Chapter 1179: Divine Figures

Abel took one holy crystal out of the golden box. He threw it to Doff. Compared to the giant palm that Doff had, the crystal was like a tiny pebble.

Doff carefully pinched the crystal with its two thick fingers. Then, it threw the crystals inside its mouth. Abel was watching the entire time. He quickly thought that everything Doff learned was actually from him. If he had to guess, Doff didn’t understand the correct way to use the holy crystals.

Very quickly, he could see that a change happening to Doff. Divine power was injected right inside Doff’s body. It was just swarming quickly to change Doff’s body. Given the amount of faith that Doff was already receiving from the barbarians of the Battlecry Plateau. The result of this one crystal could just transform what those barbarians had been providing for the past few decades.

Abel was just reminded of something. Doff didn’t learn how to obtain the holy crystals from him, but it did possess the instinctual drive to seek items that were beneficial to it. Usually, it would eat those things. If Abel had to guess, eating ten holy crystals would just transform Doff into a low-tier divine spirit.

Still, Abel chose not to let Doff use the holy crystals so quickly. If Doff transformed too quickly, he would just not be able to let Doff fight on the central continent. In fact, he also lacked a good understanding of the divine spirit training system. During this time, he also needed to find a way for divine spirits to promote. Doff wasn’t so satisfied, but it still followed through the order and returned the portal beast ring.

It was still daytime over on the central continent. Abel thought back over his experiences. The last battle trophy had to stay on the central continent for the effects to be tested. With that in mind, he had his angelic body withdraw and teleport back to the golden castle. This time, he was heading to the underground basement. This was where a room was supposed to be kept as a secret room. However, since it was not used initially, the space had been empty most of the time.

Abel spoke to the circle spirit, “Seal this room up, circle spirit. Don’t let anyone teleport in!”

He couldn’t let anyone see what he was about to do next. It was just him alone from this point. Following his command, the circle of lightning began to shine on the door. When the door and the circle connected, as long as the circle remained open, the door would just lose its effect entirely. For the door to be broken through, the entire golden castle would just be suppressed and attacked. Meanwhile, the defensive circle of this door would be connected to the defensive circle of the entire golden castle. Once that happened, even a divine spirit would have a problem making a forced entry here.

Abel commanded again, “Activate the circle spirit again. Dark spirit, protect this room so no one can spy with their power of the Will.”

The circle spirit just activated the seclusion circle to separate the room from the rest of the world. For the dark spirit, the job was really to attack anyone who attempted to perform a power of the Will scan. With them in place, Abel had the confidence to bring his angelic body out to get his angelic statue out.

Once the angelic statue was taken out, Abel could clearly sense that as soon as it appeared, several worship lines were connected. It was truly surprising for him. He looked carefully at these lines. It was easy for him to see that these all came from the Nation of God. He scanned after switching on his world stone fragment. He could tell that 50 million followers were connected to this statue. From what he could guess, they were the followers that were devoting worship to the central temple.

In front of the foot of the angelic statue, a crystal body hollow was just starting to take shape. A new holy crystal was being bred. As a matter of act, all statues were very important for divine spirits. These kinds of ones stored inside the main temple were pretty much the main object of worship for most followers. For an extensive amount of time, the 50 million followers would concentrate their worship on this one figure to provide a lot of faith power. It sounded like a lot, but the amount collected was, really, nothing to compare compared to the central temple of the Nation of God.

Abel made a rough calculation. The 50 million followers would take about one year to generate one divine crystal for him. He gained a new understanding of the crystal. 50 million was already more than the entire population of the elves. To use the elves as a reference, the Moon Goddess had always been less restricted than the Nation of God on how devoted the followers could be. The Nation of God had a complete system to make sure that everyone was doing their bit to pay tribute. Yet, with all these advantages and resources, it would still take an entire year to produce one holy crystal.

Abel was still very satisfied, but then he saw that the divine essence of the statue was just quickly disappearing. As for the inside of the central temple, the Saint was just hosting a spirit enshrinement ceremony. As the central temple must have a statue inside at all times, the Saint used whatever he could to craft a brand new statue in the shortest amount of time available. The new statue was not as intricate as the original one, but since that faith supply was going on a tremendous decrease, the Saint just ordered the statue to be put back onto the offering altar of the central temple.

The statue was not just to be placed on the altar. It still needed to be possessed by the spirit that it was supposed to depict. For one statue, there could only be one. Once the enshrinement ceremony was complete, the statue that was stolen would still be put back and returned to a new object.

The Saint was very distraught after suffering all these recent losses.

He knelt and cried, “My lord! Your servant has sinned! Your figure was stolen, so I made a new one. May the guardian wings store your presence!”

From the sky above the Nation of God, the guardian wings just flashed a streak of light and came straight to the central temple. The light swept through the roof and was inserted into the statue that was newly made. Golden light shot the statue. The figure that was dead was now shining with life. The Saint was in tears. This light was nothing compared to the figure that was stolen. The figure was now made according to the ways of the statue, but the core was still the same.

The one that was stolen had undergone the baptism of all the worship that was devoted over the past few thousand years. The inside and out were washed completely and repeated with worship. The figure was like a solidified form of worship. The differences between the old and the new were too far apart. For the new figure, it would take at least a few years for its materials to change form and be able to generate any holy crystal.

The speed at which the figure could generate the holy crystal was not even half to the statue that was stolen. As time passed, the divine spirit would just be assimilated by the faith power to increase the speed at which the holy crystal was solidifying.

As simple as the enshrinement process was, the Saint knew that the ceremony had already cost a lot of what was left inside the Nation of God. Now that everything was already stolen, the only things that remained were what was inside the guardian wings. The enshrinement ceremony was pretty much just for what was stored inside the guardian wing, while the guardian wings were pretty much for defending the barriers of the entire Nation of God.

The Saint shouted towards the officer responsible for the intelligence system, “Search as much as you can! Bring the bastard in at any cost!”

Abel, meanwhile, was not having a good time. He was upset to see that the figure he stole just lost much of its divine essence. All the 50 million faith liens were gone. The holy crystal was just dispersing as well.

“Damn!” he cursed. He knew that the Nation of God had already been doing something, but he couldn’t really do anything. The reason he brought the statue back was so that he could inspect the effect that it had on the holy crystal. For a figure like this that could be offered to real spirits, most of the manufacturing process would be in the hands of the divine spirits. For the figure in front of him, Abel didn’t think that he could get anything else that would be able to generate holy crystals in the same way. In that sense, even if all the worship connection was already gone, this was still a very important object that he had to keep.

Next up, Abel had to think about where he could get heritage passed down from the divine spirit. Since he was in his elven form, he thought that the first place he could visit would be over at the Moon Goddess Temple. Of course, he wasn’t just going to go over towards the temple to steal things. The Moon Goddess was still alive and well. It was not like the central temple of the Nation of God, where the demon from beyond would always be in deep sleep no matter how much trouble he was causing. If he was to sneak into the Goddess Temple, he would just be slain by the Moon Goddess regardless of anything that happened before between them.

No, Abel didn’t want to go to Lorraine for this, too. While it was easy to get information from her, that would just play into the hands of any potential political rivals. Abel never once believed that the Moon Goddess was so unified that everyone was fully supportive of Lorraine to be the Saint. So far, Lorraine was just taking the lead in terms of popularity because of all the ridiculous amount of tributes he was giving to everyone. If Lorraine made a mistake anytime, things could still get very wrong very quickly. In order for that to not happen, he had to be very precise in his maneuver to make sure that there were enough people owing him favors.

He spoke to the research spirit, “Research spirit, make a call for me to Druid Beulah.”

The research spirit replied, “Yes, Master. Please wait for a while.”

Abel looked around him. This was a secret room right here. There was also an angelic statue. It was also very strange here. His body flashed and immediately appeared inside the guest meeting room.

The research spirit spoke after one minute, “The call has been connected for you, Master.”

Druid Beulah spoke, “Honourable Grandmaster Bennett, what can I help you with?”

Abel invited, “There is something I’d like answered, Druid Beulah. If you have the time, would you head over to the golden castle for me?”

Druid Beulah agreed immediately, “I’ll be over there immediately, Grandmaster Bennett. I’ll be there in five minutes.”

Druid Beulah was one of Lorraine’s mentors. Naturally, she would be on quite good terms with Abel. Abel was actually the one that helped her live longer after saving her from imminent death. It wasn’t just her that would agree to help Abel out, as Abel had been the sole hope for promotion for a while now. Most big druids remained stuck at rank 22 through history, but Abel was a special being that could make many of them break through that barrier. As long as he was there to help in person, a promotion at pretty much any rank was always guaranteed.

Five minutes later, Druid Beulah appeared inside the guest meeting room of the golden castle.

Druid Beulah was very humble in her demeanor, “What would you need help with, Grandmaster Bennett?”

Abel could see that Druid Beulah wasn’t even sitting, “Please, Druid Beulah, feel more relaxed here. It’s about my recent promotion. I just became a grandmaster alchemist, so there is still much I need to learn about all sorts of things. As you know, the Wizard Union has been blocking a lot of knowledge regarding divine spirits, so I can only turn to you to learn about divine spirits.”
