Chapter 564: Collecting Divine Texts

Inside the Lost City.

An empty room.

There was a flash of white light, and Bai Pu's figure appeared.

However, the four bishop's servants did not appear.

Through the induction of blood, Bai Pu could feel the approximate location of the four bishop slaves. They also entered the Lost City, but due to the randomness of space transmission, they were teleported to other rooms.

Bai Pu glanced inside the empty room.

Much like the last time I came here, the interior of the room was empty.

In the center of the room, there is a stone tablet.

As usual, Bai Pu needs to activate the stone tablet, challenge the monsters in this room, and eliminate them all.

The problem is that when the monsters were eliminated last time, there was a chance that runes would appear. By combining them into "Rune Words", you could be transported to the sacred artifact platform and receive the corresponding sacred artifacts.

But this time, the Lost City did not "generate" new holy weapons.

So where do the mottled words on the surface of the stone tablet point?

"Gaia, I need guidance."

With a backstage, Bai Pu didn't want to use his brain.

The reason why Bai Pu calls him "Gaia" instead of "the great will of Gaia" is because he feels that the will of Gaia is just a huge program without emotion.

It is not a god, and it will not give Bai Pu extra benefits just because Bai Pu is respected by his title; nor will it punish Bai Pu just because he is given a casual title.

Anyway, during this period of fighting for the substrate, the "eyes" of Gaia's will will be fixed on Bai Pu. Even if he calls out "Xiao Gai" or "A Gai", he will respond.

【Please explore on your own. 】

Seeing a line of cold text appearing in his retina, Bai Pu felt a chill and curled his lips and said, "Is it really okay to be so indifferent? I also want to help you fight for the matrix. Should I treat my performance elites specially?"

Probably the will of Gaia also felt that the formulaic reply was too blunt, so it gave an explanation:

[According to the oath of origin, during the war in the spiritual world, the will of the spiritual world or gods cannot provide any additional help to the awakened ones, and everything can only be explored by themselves. 】

"Isn't this self-inflicted... Now I know why the awakened people want to be voters."

Bai Pu muttered.

It seems only fair that the will of gods and spirits are bound by oaths.

But gods are different from the will of the spirit world. They are more like living people and know how to take advantage of loopholes.

——For example, a divine messenger.

Of course, the divine envoys should also be subject to certain restrictions, but Bai Pu doesn't know yet.

“Forget it, it’s better to rely on yourself than rely on heaven and earth.”

Bai Pu reached out and pressed the stone tablet.

Divine writings flowed, energy surged, and a headworm-like monster emerged.

I don’t know if it’s because it’s located in the Earth Corridor and the energy of the Earth’s veins is abundant, but the strength of the monsters born at this time has increased significantly compared to the last time.

There are hundreds of insect monsters in front of you! The aura intensity of each insect is equivalent to that of a high-level elite.

This is just the outermost room! If you get to the room in the inner core area, wouldn't you have to meet a senior lord to have a group meeting?

Bai Pu is not afraid. This kind of high-level elite bug can cause very little damage due to the damage reduction by his talent and equipment.

After Bai Pu activated the molten gold armor again, the bugs couldn't break through the defense at all. Instead, they were poured back by the molten gold fire, constantly suffering scorching damage.

It didn't take long for Bai Pu to eliminate the insect swarm.

A rune text is suspended in the air.

Bai Pu looked at it for a while, shook his head and sighed: "Oh, I didn't expect that there are things I can't remember."

He has obviously come into contact with rune characters a lot, and he even had a scroll of rune characters when he came here last time, but Bai Pu has never been able to remember rune characters, as if this kind of knowledge has the property of "voluntary forgetfulness".

Bai Pu put away the rune.

[Military rank promotion mission (golden branch) has been activated. The goal of the first step of the mission is to collect divine inscriptions. 】

[Mission progress update: Divine text No. 3 has been obtained. Current collection progress of divine texts: 2%]

[After the collection progress reaches 100%, the next phase of the task will start. 】

Bai Pu was surprised by the sudden appearance of the task prompt information.

Bai Pu immediately reacted.

"It seems that the will of the spirit world doesn't know how to adapt!"

Bai Pu smiled, "Although it is limited by the oath of origin, it cannot give me direct hints, but it will provide me with the most sufficient information within the scope allowed by the oath!"

"As long as I do it right, I will get positive feedback from the task prompts."

Think about it, when the task progress reaches 2%, a prompt will be given, and the message of Divine Text No. 3 will be given directly...

This is a privilege that ordinary awakened people cannot get.

Bai Pu was in a happy mood and stepped directly into the next light door. He had sensed the location of the two nearest bishop slaves and ordered them to stand by and wait for him to gather there.

"Boss Gaia, after thinking about it, I'm still a little worried. By helping you seize the matrix this time, won't I offend the Lord of Suffering completely? What if He squeezes me to death while you're not paying attention?"

"I know the gods can't take action, but the same goes for the gods' envoys. I can't resist! You have to help me. How can I ensure my safety..."

Gaia’s Will: […]

…

In another room.

Rosen's figure was like a shadow, moving back and forth among the wolves. Wherever he passed, phantoms of black withered flowers flashed.

One after another, the basic spells of Death Touch floated out from Rosen's fingertips and ricocheted among the wolves. This is the powerful special effect of Death Touch after it reaches level 7: Death Diffusion. After killing the target of Death Touch, Death Touch will spread to up to five targets around (cannot be diffused twice).

In this way, this basic spell changed from a single target to a group spell with up to five targets.

Soon, Rosen cleared the pack of wolves.

He put away the runes and stretched out his fingers, with a small piece of white thorns wrapped around his fingertips.

The thorns swirled and actually formed a mouth pattern. Between opening and closing, the voice of the bound person sounded:

"I have gathered two teams of believers here... The spiritual traction vine left by the Virgin Mary has little divine power left, you have to use it sparingly."

"I have to know what to do next? I got a rune." Rosen said lightly.

The voice of the Bound One sounded again:

"Continue to collect runes. We need to make a very powerful rune, then pass through the Land of Rogue and carve it on the obelisk of the Creator Spirit."

"That's it?"

"This is not an easy task. You have seen how powerful the energy monsters in the Land of Rogue are... The key is that it takes a long time for us to burn the runes, and during this time we will be besieged by monsters mobilized by the Creator Spirit! It's like the immune mechanism of an organism."
