Chapter 362: God’s Awakening Method

In the south of Oden Continent, the Terriella Theocracy.

In the vast desert, there stand ancient and mysterious pyramids. They seem to be the guardians of time, quietly telling the glory and vicissitudes of Terriella in ancient times.

This desert is full of yellow sand and the sun is scorching. The pyramids are scattered in the vast golden ocean. Each of them points directly to the sky, as if it can touch the sky and talk to the sun, moon and stars.

Under the bright sunshine, the surface of the huge stone on the pyramid is shining with dazzling light, sometimes golden, sometimes silver, unpredictable and beautiful.

The Terriella Theocracy is a country that only respects the sun. The "Sun God Cult" in its country is actually an independent branch within the Sun Church. It is also one of the few branches in the Orthodox Church that still recognizes slavery.

And those pyramids are called "palaces near the sun."

Throughout the ages, only the monarchs of Terila and even more powerful beings are qualified to sleep in the pyramids after death.

These behemoths have survived thousands of years of wind and rain erosion, and they are still standing. Each stone has been carefully carved and fits perfectly. They are surrounded by endless yellow deserts and occasional oases.

The starry sky is bright, the Milky Way is hanging low, and those pyramids seem to have become a bridge connecting heaven and earth.

Suddenly, from a huge pyramid, a middle-aged man with only one intact arm came out, with short silver-white hair, white clothes, and a monocle.

That was Kano.

Kano Fischer.

He was covered with wounds and was shaky, as if he had just experienced a very tragic battle.

Kano took a deep breath, slowly raised a piece of black stone the size of his arm in his hand, and finally smiled on his face.

That was what he got from the pyramid after a narrow escape. If it weren't for the effect of the fate track "alertness", which could avoid most of the dangers in advance, Kano would definitely be dead.

Nine years ago, Kano left the village he had been observing for a long time and began to travel around the countries of Oden Continent, looking for a way to wake up the great lost lord.

Finally, three years ago, he finally came to the vicinity of this pyramid, and through prophecy spells and intelligence collection, he learned about the important local legends.

Kano turned his head and looked at the huge pyramid that had been abandoned for a long time.

As night fell, its outline became clearer under the moonlight.

The high priest in this pyramid was actually active nearly ten thousand years ago. He was once a legendary strong man who officially entered the apocalypse level.

At that time, the scorching sun was sleeping because of the evil power, and the whole world fell into complete darkness.

And this high priest was a saint of the Church of the Sun. He sacrificed himself to awaken the sleeping scorching sun and bring light back to the world of Crade.

Although nearly ten thousand years have made everything in history more silent, there are few legends about him, and even the name of this pyramid is no longer known, it was still discovered by Kano, who is proficient in prophecy.

It took him another three years to finally find a way to enter the pyramid.

Kano looked at the black slate in his hand again, and could not understand the twisted and changing strange words on it.

But he still shook his head. It was the only thing he brought out of the pyramid. Perhaps it recorded the way to wake up the great Lord of the Lost.

Kano slowly looked to the east, knelt on the ground, and prayed calmly.

His breathing was even and deep. Every breath seemed to resonate with the rhythm of the universe, gradually releasing the distractions and disturbances in his heart, leaving only a pure piece.

"Great Lord of the Lost, please protect my family. Fisher will live up to his name."

——

Nasir City, Fisher Manor.

The old Lillian lay in the bed calmly and peacefully, her body motionless under the quilt, and the spiritual dragon, who was more than half a person tall, lay beside her with a sad face, whining like a poor puppy.

"Father... you're here again."

Byrne, who looked younger than his aging daughter, sat beside Lillian, holding one of her hands, and remained silent.

Byrne's heart seemed to be swallowed by endless darkness, a deep despair beyond words.

There was reluctance and sadness in his eyes, and every time he stared at his daughter's face that was gradually losing its luster, it was a cruel tearing of his heart.

"Lillian... don't be afraid."

Byrne tried to hold his daughter's hand tightly with both hands, as if this could stop the passage of time and retain the dying fire of life, but reality shattered his hope like a cold tide.

He once again felt a strong loneliness and emptiness. In this world, his daughter was one of the most precious parts of Byrne's life. Her impending departure was like taking away half of his soul from his world.

"After entering the fifth step, our life span will become longer. We must accept these things..." Byrne muttered to himself, looking at Chris outside the house.

He knew that Vanessa's life span might not be long.

Vanessa's principle is "justice". When she decided to sacrifice her principles for the Fisher family, she stopped on the road of order and sequence power.

In a sense, Vanessa also sacrificed herself for the Fisher family...

Even the powerful Chris couldn't stop "that thing" from happening. Vanessa was getting older and older. Time will eventually take away every mortal, it's just a matter of time.

"Father, don't be sad."

Lillian opened her mouth slowly and smiled, "With the great Lord of the Lost, He will definitely protect my soul."

Lillian looked back quietly. Whether it was laughter or tears, success or setbacks, they all became an indispensable scenery in this journey of life.

No regrets in her heart!

She knew that it was these experiences that shaped her and taught her to be strong, brave and love God.

Being born as a member of the Fisher family and becoming a high priest who could worship the great Lord of the Lost was the most important thing in Lillian's life.

The most important thing was... Him.

The great Lord of the Lost gave her the full meaning of life!

Lillian believed that death was not the end, but another form of beginning.

"Father, my soul will be forever connected to this world, and will continue to protect the Fisher family I love in a new way."

"You should be happy for me."

"I will go to another world to serve the great Lord of the Lost, and will become a warm light to illuminate the way forward for the successors of the Fisher family."

Lillian smiled calmly.

"No, Lillian, I won't let you see Him so easily."

Byrne's eyes gradually became firm and resolute. He stood in the vague area between life and death, with an unprecedented strength and courage surging in his heart.

It was like this every time.

Facing the death of his loved ones, all the memories deep in his heart were extremely clear.

It was extremely painful.

It was like an unforgettable curse.

Facing the cruel reality that Lillian was about to die, Byrne made an important decision in his heart-to make a deal with the president!

In fact, just a few years ago, the president had hinted at this matter to him.

"Byrne, as long as I use that 'stone', even if you help me, you won't use up all your lifespan."

He has created a real "stone" that can trigger incredible miracles. Even increasing a person's lifespan is not impossible.

Over the years, Byrne has read many books on mysticism and learned too much knowledge about the world of Clad. Deep down, he knows that there are only a handful of secrets and treasures that can increase lifespan.

He knows that now he has no choice but to find the president of the Alchemy Council.

Trigger a miracle?

Byrne thought of another thing, which might be the only thing in the world more important than saving his daughter.

"Perhaps, I can use it to wake up the great Lord of the Lost?"
