#2643 - Situation

【Hint: Player triggered side quest - Lost Seal】.

Quest Name: Lost Seal - The Lament of the Compassionate.

Quest Difficulty: SSS.

The reward is average, but the game task clearly defines the goal and location.

The old man stroked his white beard and continued, "Fang Heng, our Seal Association has always maintained a neutral third-party stance. We have never been involved in the wars between various forces before. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Naturally."

"So, our association cannot provide assistance in this matter. You have to find a way yourself."

"I understand. The association has helped me too much during this time. No matter the outcome of this matter, it will not be associated with the Seal Association."

Fang Heng respectfully bowed to several association instructors.

Since there was no way with the Seal Association, the Necromancy Council should have a way.

Moreover, if he went to the Holy See to cause some trouble, he could also help the Necromancy Council faction divert some pressure.

Returning to Miskoburg, Fang Heng originally wanted to talk to the Necromancy Council about the current progress, but as soon as he arrived at the front hall, he was told that Council Speaker Georg was in seclusion with several high-level council members.

Seclusion?

Fang Heng was a little confused.

They still have the mind to go into seclusion at this time?

While he was wondering, he happened to meet Ji Xiaobo who was walking in from outside.

"Brother Fang!"

When Ji Xiaobo saw Fang Heng, his face immediately lit up with joy, and he hurriedly chased after him. "Brother Fang, I heard that you went to the Seal Association for special training? How's the progress?"

"It's okay."

Fang Heng shrugged, with a hint of helplessness on his face, "There's still a bit of a gap from sealing Sullogg."

"It's okay, we still have time."

Ji Xiaobo didn't know how much Fang Heng's so-called 'a bit of a gap' was. Seeing that Fang Heng wasn't very interested, and assuming there wasn't much progress, he comforted him, "The Necromancy Council just awakened an artifact, which should be able to help."

Fang Heng had heard about the artifact yesterday, and couldn't help but ask, "What artifact is it?"

"An artifact that can take effect against resentment. It was just found from the old warehouse last night. Council Speaker Georg is awakening the artifact with several instructors. It will probably take another day or two. After the artifact is revived, Sullogg's power will be weakened a lot."

Ji Xiaobo couldn't say exactly what the artifact was, after all, he only heard a rough overview.

"Hmm..."

Fang Heng glanced at the closed door of the Council Hall, thinking that the instructors were busy awakening the artifact.

Then I won't disturb them.

I'll ask about the specific situation after the instructors come out.

"Okay, what's the situation with the Holy See recently?"

"The Holy See?"

Ji Xiaobo's face immediately showed indignation when he heard Fang Heng's question, and he said, "Those dogs of the Holy See are taking advantage of our focus on the Death Realm to consciously target us in various worlds, weakening the power of our Necromancer camp."

"Shi Lipeng is still dealing with them, but the situation is very bad. He has to send requests for help almost every day. Many areas have been evacuated and cleaned by the Holy See."

Fang Heng frowned upon hearing this, and asked, "Don't the instructors have any intention of intervening?"

"The main battles are currently concentrated at the player level and in most low and mid-tier game worlds. Unless you appear on the battlefield, the Holy See will not send higher combat power to join the battle."

"Once the instructors enter the field, God's Domain will also send higher combat power to descend and join the battlefield. The instructors have analyzed that, on the one hand, all our energy is focused on the Death Realm, and we can't spare more power to fight the Holy See on the frontal battlefield. On the other hand, according to the Council's estimate, if we and God's Domain both join the battlefield, we will only enter a greater disadvantage."

Fang Heng curled his lips.

Well, in the end, it's just that their hard power can't beat them.

"Of course, I estimate that the Holy See doesn't want to send high-level combat power into a full-scale war either. The energy and faith required for descent are a lot. The Holy See's strength has declined in recent years, and many camps have quite a bit of criticism of the Holy See. The Holy See wants to preserve its strength and doesn't want others to see its weakness."

"Also, the Holy See is putting pressure on various forces. They have unilaterally determined that it is our Necromancy Council that is protecting you, and that the Council hand you over before there is a possibility of sitting down for negotiations."

When the Necromancy Council heard this, they immediately chose to fight to the end.

It's just that fighting is fighting, but they still can't beat them.

In the end, all the suffering is borne by Shi Lipeng alone.

In Fang Heng's opinion, Shi Lipeng still has some tricks.

The strength gap between the two sides is obvious, but Shi Lipeng can still deal with the Holy See, and at least his strength has not been damaged too much on the surface.

After talking for a long time, Ji Xiaobo gradually came back to his senses and asked, "Brother Fang, why did you suddenly ask about the Holy See?"

"Well." Fang Heng nodded and explained, "When I went to the Seal Association to study this time, I learned about some things. The Holy See once made a special auxiliary sealing tool to seal monsters. This thing can take effect on Sullogg. I'm thinking about how to get it."

As soon as Ji Xiaobo heard this, he became interested.

That's great!

We can take the opportunity to strike a blow against the Holy See and find a way to deal with Sullogg.

"Brother Fang, do you mean we're preparing to attack the Holy See?"

"Yes."

Fang Heng nodded lightly.

We definitely have to attack.

But he also had concerns.

Since he seriously injured the God's Domain pursuers last time, the subsequent tracking by God's Domain seems to have stopped.

This sudden interruption didn't make him feel much relaxed. Instead, he had a feeling that a storm was coming.

A very subtle premonition.

The Holy See is likely to be brewing something big.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, we can also go to the Holy See to see the situation.

"Where are we going? Which world?"

"The War Remains world, do you know it?"

"I've heard of it. It's a high-level game world under the control of the Holy See, and we don't have any Necromancer camp development there."

Ji Xiaobo was full of energy and turned to leave. "But it's okay, the instructors must have a way. I'll contact the instructors now. Brother Fang, wait for me, it'll be quick..."

"Wait!"

Fang Heng reached out and stopped Ji Xiaobo, who was rushing to prepare to call for people.

"What?"

"Once I join the frontal battlefield with the Holy See, the Holy See will definitely have a stress reaction and send a strong team from God's Domain to target me, so we must be careful about this and never leak it out."

Ji Xiaobo nodded solemnly, "Okay, Brother Fang, I understand. This matter is absolutely confidential."

"Also, help me contact Shi Lipeng."

"Hmm?"

"Isn't he under a lot of pressure fighting the Holy See? We're all teammates in the same camp, so we have to help him out. Helping him is also helping ourselves."

"Got it! Brother Fang! I'll do it right away!"
