Chapter 4 The First Seal

"Great!"

"Chris, he's not having a fever anymore, he can really survive!"

Erin couldn't help but smile with joy, and deep in her heart she felt a strong reverence and gratitude for the Lord of Loss!

That was a great miracle!

The Lord of Loss is really a very powerful and benevolent god!

So, what does He want to take away from me?

Erin had never seen a one-sided, unrequited contribution, and she knelt in front of the transparent vial like a shivering harmless little animal.

"Great Lord of Loss! I praise you! It was your power that saved my brother, and I have nothing to repay you for!"

She said to the black light flashing inside with a trembling voice:

"If you want any reward, I can give you my life, soul, or anything else."

"I just hope you can show mercy, and when my brother grows up, come back to collect what I owe you."

The various "temptations" in myths and legends often have a price, and for her only family, she has prepared for the worst.

Carl was really confused about the girl's fearful attitude, and just felt that she was too vigilant and cautious.

He decided to be straightforward and explain the "Party A's needs" openly.

The will clearly conveyed the message that the girl only needed to find a mysterious object as a sacrifice to satisfy Him.

Mysterious object?

Irene's hands trembled slightly. She once heard the mayor say by chance what a "mysterious object" was. It was a treasure that only extraordinary people with powerful powers could possess.

For ordinary people in the town, mysterious objects were simply legendary things that had never been seen before!

She was just an ordinary girl in a seaside port town. How could she find such a thing? But if the Lord of the Lost was not satisfied... what would happen then?

She simply couldn't imagine how destructive the terrible consequences would be! The Lord of the Lost was definitely a powerful and terrifying god. His great power might raze the entire town to the ground!

What should I do?

"Yes, yes, I understand. I will try my best to find the mysterious object for you!"

Irene suddenly saw the cross of black light flashing in the bottle again.

It was as if she had entered the black and white world again. All sounds disappeared, as if she was in a suffocating painting. The girl seemed to be witnessing the destruction of the things around her. She felt that she could not look away at all and almost fainted!

She finally lowered her head in fear.

Karl also felt something was wrong.

Why is the girl in front of her so afraid of herself? Do I look scary?

Karl fell into deep thought. Is it possible that the bottle possessed by the soul is scary?

He pulled his eyes away and took a look at the transparent bottle. There was nothing unusual. I'm afraid that the girl was just a little too timid. There was nothing he could do.

Karl continued to stare at the baby's physical condition and found that he was completely free of illness and fell asleep peacefully.

The extraordinary power of "healing diseases and pain" did not originally belong to him, but came from the mysterious object of the bottle whose spirituality he completely devoured.

"It seems that the mysterious objects that devour spirituality will indeed become part of their own soul power."

Karl clearly felt that the power characteristics of the purple finger amulet were very small, and it was a protective effect, which had been transformed into a cross with purple light.

In addition, there was a more important good news. After absorbing the two mysterious objects, he felt that the first seal in the depths of his soul was getting looser and could be completely broken at any time.

After a while, Irene found that the Lost Lord no longer conveyed his thoughts.

"Are you gone?"

She gradually relaxed, sealed the blown door with the wooden boards at home, gradually calmed down and sat back on the wooden bed, and felt that everything tonight was extremely amazing in her mind.

Irene hummed the tune in the nursery rhyme and accompanied her sleeping brother for several hours until the rain gradually subsided at night, and the girl lay tiredly curled up and fell asleep.

Karl silently perceived the wonderful connection between the two sides, and now he can vaguely sense Irene's position and emotions.

As long as it is within a five-kilometer range, even if the girl is in danger, Karl's consciousness can rush to the scene in the first time.

"It can be regarded as a very wonderful beginning."

Carl, who was in the bottle, listened quietly to the sound of rain outside and thought about the power he currently possessed.

The black light gradually dissipated in the bottle, and the nearby objects would lose their original colors because of it, turning into black and white without any sound or emotion.

He realized that this black light seemed to be the source of his own power.

Carl found that the power he truly possessed in the depths of his soul was very powerful.

First, he could devour the spirituality in the mysterious objects and the souls of his followers, and transform it into a permanent power in his own soul, restoring the lower limit of his soul power while increasing the upper limit.

The second is the manifestation of "temporary power". He can naturally transform the life of the sacrifice into a "death curse" and give it to individuals within the field of vision.

"I don't know if different sacrifices other than 'life' have the same effect."

He has realized the importance of the girl.

She is his follower, that is, a "chess piece", just like the first character drawn in a mobile game.

I cannot move freely in the bottle, and taking action myself will consume a huge amount of spiritual energy, so it is very important to be good at using convenient "chess pieces" to influence the world.

Carl thought that it would be best to train Irene and even the entire family members of the Fisher bloodline into powerful extraordinary people.

He could vaguely sense that there were two members with the blood of the Fisher family in the surrounding area.

It was just that the distance was more than five kilometers, and Carl could not communicate with their consciousness directly.

But those two family members were inspired by the fate of the bloodline and would come here to see me sooner or later.

What to do next is very clear.

On the one hand, I need loyal "chess pieces" to collect mysterious objects and provide me with more spiritual energy and runes.

On the other hand, the spiritual energy possessed by the followers will return to themselves after death, so as long as they can cultivate followers with strong spiritual energy.

When their souls return after death, they can also provide themselves with enough nutritious "spirituality".

"It seems that my family and I are fundamentally in the same boat."

Suddenly, with the complete absorption of the purple amulet, the first heavy seal in the depths of the soul was finally completely broken!

Carl was ecstatic, and felt that a large number of fragmented memories emerged, and soon learned a lot about the "Krad" world where he was.

It turned out that this was the town of Nasir on the east coast of the Oden continent.

There are many countries on the Oden continent, and the ruling class is the powerful nobles who control the extraordinary power. The town of Nasir is under the rule of the Baron Hoven family.

There is no doubt that extraordinary power is the absolute symbol of status!

About 90% of the resources and channels for the cultivation of extraordinary power are all in the hands of the nobles and the Orthodox Church.

The extraordinary people in the world are mainly divided into two types, either studying the use of spiritual power to drive more magic power, or strengthening the blood power existing in the flesh and blood.

However, no matter what kind of extraordinary person, the soul essence has not been sublimated, so that even if the extraordinary people reach the point of death, they are still pure mortals, and the spirituality of their souls will not be much different from that of ordinary people.

"Ah?"

Wait, it's bad!

Carl soon realized that something was wrong!

He still had a whole set of power systems belonging to the "God Ascension Sequence" in his mind. Mortals can step onto the long steps of God through magic potions and rituals, gradually sublimate the essence of the soul, and strengthen their own spirituality.

However, the God Ascension Sequence does not exist in the world in front of us!

Even if people take the corresponding magic potions and perform rituals, it is impossible to master the power of the sequence!

"Because those extraordinary laws related to the spiritual sequence do not exist at all, the far-leading power system is useless..."

Carl was extremely helpless in his heart.

Moreover, both blood and spellcasting talents are gifts from the gods. Mortals without blood and talents can never become extraordinary people!

At least in theory.

Even if he could really train the members of the Fisher family to master magic or blood power and become powerful spellcasters or knights, they would not be able to give him much spirituality after death.

Studying the power system of soul power is completely in a knowledge blind spot in the current Krad world!

"..."

After a long silence, Carl finally came up with the only solution that was not a solution.

The memory restored after the first seal was lifted contained a lot of incomplete information about the "God Ascension Sequence".

Although the relevant information in the memory is incomplete or even fragmented, as long as he continues to break through the seal, he can reversely deduce the complete God Ascension Sequence.

Moreover, his memory also has a method of going to the spirit world through dreams, which can theoretically reproduce all the spiritual laws of the God Ascension Sequence, and finally enable people in the world to have the opportunity to master the power of the sequence.

"Build the long steps to God Ascension and create a completely different new generation of extraordinary people!"
