Chapter 52 Soul Forging
After listening to the surviving soldiers' report, Link hoped that the commander would not make a conclusion so early, but was rejected.
The fire cannot be kept in the paper. The rebellion of Gonzalez will spread soon. Alex doesn't want Longyan Castle to be accused of sheltering the traitors.
Link wanted to say something, but Hull suddenly stood up with a clear look on his face and said that he didn't want him to continue talking.
Alex expressed his gratitude to the Alliance of Nature as the commander of Longyan Fort. Speaking of this, the formal meeting was over.
"Gonzalez's transformation will definitely reveal that you are still alive. You will immediately follow me back to the guardian land. You can't stay outside anymore."
Link was powerless to refute that even if he believed that Gonzalez's betrayal was a difficult situation and insider, who would believe it?
"Don't forget what you have stored in me, and the wind falcon." The old dwarf called Link, and Hull said he was waiting outside and asked Link to go and go back soon.
Following Dante to the wrought iron house, the wind falcon jumped happily onto Link's shoulder. It was injured by Claudia and almost died. He sent the letter to the Revenge and stayed at the dwarf to recuperate.
After taking the space bag, Link took out the treasure of fate left by Thunder from his arms: "This is Thunder's thing. I met him in the big rift. I'm sorry, I couldn't bring him back."
Dante reached out and touched the brown beast horn, his eyes full of nostalgia.
"I have long since lost hope. I... just don't want to give up. That child is so outstanding and is the person who has the most hope to inherit the will of Befest."
The dwarf's choked words touched Link very much, and he couldn't help but think of Gonzalez.
"Nei, go and tell Hull, I'll go back to the guardian land later."
Feng Falcon flew and whispered, telling Linkhull that he had a bad temper, and asked him to wait, and be careful of being beaten again.
Link smiled bitterly, not only saying goodbye, but also having important matters to ask Dante.
After asking Dante to put a sign of closure and sent away the other dwarves. After confirming that no one eavesdropped, Link told Dante about Aidan's Shuanghan's guess. He also said the same thing a few days ago, but he didn't expect that the suspicion at that time would come true.
"Although there is no conclusive evidence, Thunder did not betray, and this has been confirmed from God's knowledge. Only by finding evidence can I clear his grievances. You can wait."
Dante said that he had been waiting for so many years and didn't care about waiting for a while. He asked Link what he planned to do next? Gonzalez knew Link's appearance, ability, and even weaknesses. Once Shuanghan mastered this information, it would be very unfavorable to Link.
"The Mage Tower in Mist Canyon has been destroyed, and I guess there is no useful thing to find." Originally, Link was planning to wait for the main line of Longyan Castle to be completed, and then he went to check the truth about the Shuanghan incident. Now the plan has been completely disrupted. Hornheim and the Alliance of Nature are inconsistent, and the idea of sneaking in must not work. Lena's Mage Tower was destroyed by Gonzalez again. All that is left is to go to Aidan's bone burial land, the place called the Great Hall, and the luck of the maid.
"You are going to the Great Hall of Dennis?" Dante's eyes widened, "No! No! It is the headquarters of the Morning Sect. It is stationed at more than 5,000 Knights of the Dawn all year round. There are at least twenty bishop-level clergy, which are even more dangerous than Hornheim. If you want to dig Aidan's corpse under their noses, you can't even think of all the existing sons of nature going out together."
Link: "…"
It's so awesome, no wonder Aidan had to choose the burial place in the Great Hall. With Malik's conspiracy barrier, those from the Morning Sect wouldn't find that their headquarters had the Lich's life box.
Thinking of this, Link felt something was wrong again.
Shuanghan tried his best to hide his identity, so he would not easily expose the life box to those who could find out his identity. Maybe it deliberately placed the corpse in the Great Hall so that those who doubted its identity would have an illusion that it was its life box. He used the Chenxi Sect to deal with people who wanted to move its corpse, and from beginning to end, it would eliminate the enemy without touching a finger, which was like its style.
Since the corpse of the Great Hall is a trap, what will Shuanghan’s real life case be? It should not be easily damaged. Everyone is accustomed to it, and absolutely no one can imagine it.
"How much do you know about Aidan?" Link didn't have much hope. Decades have passed in the illusion, and all the ones that can be found have been destroyed. Shuanghan is cruel and ruthless. Maybe he knows that his players or NPCs have been attacked by it. Most of the time for Dante is safe, he doesn't know much about it.
The old dwarf shook his head repeatedly: "I haven't seen myself before, I just heard Thunder occasionally talk about it."
Sure enough... if they have direct contact, they can also use the divine knowledge to check it. No connection will only waste the spell position.
Link could somewhat understand that the Natural Alliance had been depressed by Shuanghan for so many years. The prophecy was useless, and the information found was pointed at another person. As long as the life box was there, the Lich would almost be immortal. Otherwise, in terms of combat power alone, it might not be Hull's opponent.
"I can remind you not to dig up Aidan's body. Not only will you be in danger, but you will also collapse the fragile alliance that the Alliance of Nature and the Morning Sect just concluded. Don't forget that you are no longer a human being, but a messenger representing the gods of nature."
Dante's words inspired Link. Yes! The Nature Alliance has formed an alliance with the Chenxi Sect. As a son of nature, I am qualified to enter the Great Hall. If I don't dig up a corpse, can't I find something else? I don't believe that Shuanghan can erase all the traces of his past. NPCs and players always remember him. As long as I find someone who knows him, God's knowledge can come in handy.
Looking at Link's expression, Dante knew that his advice was useless. When he handed back the Thunder's Destiny Treasure to Link, he held his hand. The force was so strong that Link subconsciously wanted to break free.
"What are you doing?"
"Don't move!"
Just when Link was confused, a heat came over his hand.
After a few seconds, Dante looked up and looked at Link with a subtle look.
"You have already received Kaogo's recognition."
"Uh..." How did he know? Link couldn't hide his surprise. He could tell just by shaking his hand?
"The dwarf's master belief is the God of War and the God of Fire. I just used the ability of soul forging. If it were a few days ago, you would have been burned. But now you don't feel any discomfort, which means you have been recognized by the God of Fire, Kaogo, and ordinary fire elements can no longer hurt you."
Link thought, in this way, the ground elements and the wind elements should be the same, so what is the protection of the element inside the skill table?
"Since you have gained the power of God's appearance, you can master the forging of your soul."
"Didn't it mean that you need a master-level forging major to master this skill?" Link remembers this how Gonzalez introduced soul forging.
"In theory, this is the case." Dante nodded, "Soul forging is not difficult. It only has one requirement - the strength of the soul. Because it uses the power of the soul to take the shape of an outer object, it has extremely high requirements for the soul, which is definitely not possible for ordinary people. It is much easier for clergy, especially the son of nature, who has perceptions higher than ordinary people and power given by God. These are the conditions for achieving soul forging. The principle of creating strange objects invented by the elves comes from the two elements of Kaogo's 'divine appearance' and Andrea's 'divine solidity'."
‘God’ is to show the power of God, and it has another name: manifestation.
As soon as he talked about this word, Link understood it immediately.
Three of the dwarfs' "Qi, Know, Hard, and Now" appeared when they first met. What ability does the last "Gu" represent?
"Gu means fixing divine power on a certain object. The mages call similar abilities soul enchantments. Only objects created with the two abilities of Mu and Xian can be called real strange objects." Dante explained that the mystery of creating strange objects was completely unveiled.
Link also remembered what the dwarf said last time he taught himself to make magic items. The Son of Nature is limited by the reset of the spell position. All halos and persistent spells will disappear when the sun rises. If the ability of "solid" is used, does it mean that the divine power can be permanently fixed?
Dante used iron pliers to pick up a square iron ingot and asked Link to change its shape with [God Appearance].
Link, who had not seen the inheritance after the upgrade, was not sure whether he had the ability to appear divinely, but Dante said it was certain that he focused all his attention on the iron ingot.
How to change? Or is it the old way, do you think about it?
"Don't be bound by inherent ideas. You are apostle of God. You can do anything as long as the gods allow you. Using divine power to change the appearance of objects is just a piece of cake." Dante's words reminded Link of Gonzalez's message. Skills are dead, people are alive, and they must broaden their minds.
As long as the gods allow, they can do anything. Then...
Link imagined in his mind that the iron ingot turned into strips and then twisted it into a rope.
An amazing scene appeared, the rectangular iron ingots were first stretched and then twisted together, and the metal that should have been hard but twisted into a rope as soft as dough.
Looking at the iron rope that had completely changed shape, Link reached out and touched it in disbelief, and the hard texture told him that he had really done it.
"Yes, this is soul forging, it's so simple that it can't be simple. As long as the soul is strong enough, anyone can do it."
Link didn't react at first. He repeated it several times in his mind before he understood what Dante wanted to express: "What do you mean is that there is no spell limit, how many times do you want to use it?"
"Your understanding ability really needs to be strengthened. Soul forging comes from the Son of Nature, yes, but not all creatures have the ability to manifest divinely. They rely on the strength of their souls to make up for divine power. You must use magic positions to make it up. After all, it is divine power, and the effect will definitely be better." Dent threw the rope-shaped iron bar into the furnace, and Dante called out Link who was about to leave. He took out a silver box from his arms, the size of a palm, and the dark blue reflection could tell it was Misilan at a glance.
What baby should be installed with Misin? Link was a little curious. After opening it, the things inside stunned him. The dreamy colors could not be copied, and you can confirm it with just a glance that it is soul energy.
What does Dante mean? Give me the soul that he wants to give me the same precious soul as the Destiny Demon?!
"This is left by Befast, you can take it. As the sons of nature, they should have a higher identity with you."
It is false to say that he is not moved, but Link did not reach out to take it. He didn't know why Dante gave him such a precious thing. He was not rewarded without any merits, and the dwarf must have something to ask for.
"I originally wanted to leave it to Thunder, but unfortunately he couldn't use it."
As soon as he said this, Link's guilt immediately rose, "I'm sorry, I..."
"Don't say sorry, from the moment he fell into degeneration, he was no longer Thunder, but a poor monster who fell into madness. I thank you for letting his body rest in peace, but his soul is in Shuanghan's hands. Take this, defeat Shuanghan, and release those souls controlled by it."
Taking the soul energy from Dante, Link carefully placed it into the space bag you carry with you. Like the Destiny Spirit, it was so light that it was almost weightless.
"Go, I'll wait for your good news."
Flying away from Longyan Fort under Dante's expectant gaze, Link was in a very heavy mood.
