Chapter 1287: G.o.d’s Gathering
On the 10th of march, Abel sat in his star light protection circle during lunchtime with Doff"s second body by his side.
In front of him was the spirit connection circle, and his star light protection circle was fully ignited.
"Doff, let"s start!" Abel nodded.
"Yes master!" Doff waved his hand, and a golden strand of energy flew forward, and an energy ball began to expand from the circle.
Abel was not expecting the spirit connection circle to work like this. He thought it would transfer Doff"s energy somewhere since he could already see the faces of people with normal communication circles.
Therefore, Abel had his soul locked to Doff"s, ready to join the meeting through the soul chain at any time.
But he hesitated. Was it going to work?
He didn"t know if the G.o.ds knew about his connection to Doff.
But he was sure of one thing, any capable G.o.d would be seeking out information about Doff.
When the golden energy ball engulfed Doff"s second body, it began to s.h.i.+ft.
Abel stood next to Doff, and soon G.o.ds began to emerge around him.
First was a G.o.ddess s.h.i.+ning natural beauty. She was the G.o.ddess of the moon.
Although he met the G.o.ddess of the moon before through the G.o.dsend, he never saw the G.o.ddess of the moon"s true form.
Hidden between her hair were a pointy nose and a pair of pointy ears. It was no wonder why she was the G.o.ddess of elves.
The second to appear was a dwarf, which Abel felt very familiar with. It was the energy of a furnace.
Then there was a cold-looking human G.o.ddess. The water-energy on her almost made Abel feel like he was looking at a blue dragon.
There was also a hooded G.o.d with only 2 green flames emerging from within, which Abel could sense Death qi.
Beside him was a fat G.o.d in a luxurious golden robe with a big smile on his face. That robe had the energy of a holy object. It seemed like it would be a ha.s.sle to fight in it.
Finally was another smiling G.o.ddess. Her energy was extremely peaceful, and Abel could sense the energy of the earth.
"h.e.l.lo Abel, nice to see you again!" The G.o.ddess of the moon was not surprised. Instead, she greeted like she was seeing an old friend.
By that point, Abel was sure that the G.o.ddess of the moon knew Doff was his summon. He interacted with the G.o.ddess of the moon before. She was friendly, but he could still sense her prestige back then.
But today, she was talking to him like an equal.
"G.o.d of war!" The dwarf called with shock just when Abel was about to speak.
The other G.o.ds were stunned as well.
"G.o.d of fire, the G.o.d of war is dead. This is the new G.o.d of war!" The G.o.ddess of moon smiled and then turned to Abel "G.o.d of war, this is the G.o.d of fire, the G.o.d of blacksmiths!"
Doff then nodded and left everything back to Abel.
"G.o.ddess of moon, how come there is a non-G.o.d here? Please tell him to go!" That fat G.o.d with a smile said with a smile.
"Let me introduce Abel first before everyone decides to make him leave!" The G.o.ddess of the moon looked around and continued, "Abel is a recognised blue dragon, and my elves" Grandmaster alchemist, the tree of life"s equal, and the owner of the G.o.d of war! I think he deserves to stay!"
"What? The owner of the G.o.d of war?" The G.o.ds gasped.
As for his other ident.i.ties, they were also very prestigious.
"I think the G.o.d of death and the G.o.ddess of water also got the news too?" The G.o.ddess of the moon turned to the hooded G.o.d and the G.o.ddess with water energy
"Yes, blue dragon Abel, I think you should stay!" The G.o.d of death said with a sandpaper-like voice.
"h.e.l.lo, Blue dragon Abel. I"m happy to interact with you!" The G.o.ddess of water added.
Abel then bowed at the two.
"G.o.d of fire, I am a Grandmaster Blacksmith recognised by the dwarves as well!" Abel began to introduce.
"Haha, I knew you were a big hammer holder the moment I saw you!" The G.o.d of fire laughed.
"Blue dragon Abel, I am the G.o.ddess of earth. I don"t have any problem with you staying!" She spoke with peace tone, without any excitement or anger.
"Ah, peace brings fortune. Since all of you agree, then I have nothing to say! I am the G.o.d of wealth!" That fat G.o.d changed his att.i.tude.
"Abel, since you represent the G.o.d of war, let me introduce how the G.o.d alliance works. We are recognised by the wizard union. By bonding together we are able to interact with them on a more equal ground!" The G.o.ddess of the moon smiled.
Abel immediately realized why there was no fight between the G.o.ds and the wizard union.
Although the power of one G.o.d is limited, forming an alliance was a different story.
"G.o.ddess of the moon, are you inviting the G.o.d of war to join the alliance?" Abel asked
"Joining the alliance needs every G.o.d to agree, so I can"t say, but we never expected a new G.o.d would join when we started the alliance anyway!" The G.o.ddess of the moon gave out a helplessly bitter smile.
"Yeah, the times of G.o.ds have pa.s.sed, we are the only ones remaining and there are not a single new G.o.d created in the last thousands of years !" The G.o.d of fire sighed.
"But that"s not the point of this gathering today anyway. We will reserve our judgment once we get to know the G.o.d of war, or you, a little better!" The G.o.d of water smiled.
"Abel, if the G.o.d of war had more holy crystals, I would like to exchange some!" The G.o.ddess of the moon got straight to the point with a smile and signaled the G.o.d of death and G.o.d with water with a gaze.
Those 3 G.o.ds must have seen the report from the wizard union, but since she was closer to Abel, she was the only one who had the right to ask.
"G.o.ddess of moon, what are you going to give out and how many do you need?" Abel was already expecting this before he came here.
"Abel, I will give Lorraine"s soul to you in the future. I"m sure you know how valuable the soul of a saint is! So let"s say 10 holy crystals !" The G.o.ddess of moon smiled.
Lorraine was the spokesperson for the G.o.ddess of the moon in the common world, and the amount of faith she could generate for her kingdom was scary.
But still, 10 holy crystals was a little too much.
"G.o.ddess of moon, thanks for taking care of Lorraine during this time, so I"ll go according to your will, but I just hope you can continue to protect her!" Abel smiled and took out 10 holy crystals to place on the spirit connection circle.
The eyes of all the G.o.ds immediately began to sparkle.
Was that all it took to get holy crystals?
The G.o.ddess of the moon also understood what Abel signified. Those crystals were not for Lorraine"s soul, but to thank her for taking care of Lorraine.
Lorraine was not even an adult elf, so it was a way to learn to discuss which kingdom her soul should return to.
At the same time, the G.o.ddess of the moon knew this also guaranteed there would be no conflict between her and Abel.
"Blue dragon Abel, holy crystals are very important for the G.o.d of war"s holy kingdom. Please don"t give them out so willingly!" The G.o.d of fire warned.
He had been in sleeping, so he didn"t know much about Abel and Doff"s condition.
If Abel didn"t tell the wizard union that thief G.o.d Milton had stolen a big chunk of holy crystals from the holy kingdom, they would have kept Doff and Abel"s ident.i.ty a secret as well.
But considering how serious the condition was, they just couldn"t hide it.
"G.o.d of fire, you"ll get used to it. The G.o.d of war not only created his holy kingdom already, he also has 2 bodies, if I"m right, this should be his second body!" The G.o.ddess of water turned to the G.o.d of fire humbly.
"What?" The G.o.d of fire felt a little embarra.s.sed as he scanned Doff. Indeed, this was a second body.
The other G.o.ds also began to look at this G.o.d of war, standing in silence. Although they had never seen a second G.o.dhead before, they were all truly old monsters, and they all had their way to testifying if the G.o.d of war had 2 bodies.
"Blue dragon Abel, do you want some holy objects? I havea holy nail, do you want to buy it for 10 holy crystals?" The G.o.d of fire immediately asked in excitement.
Abel was speechless. The status of a blacksmith in the Central Continent could not even come close to the ones in the holy continent. Their skills were too insufficient to satisfy the truly powerful professionals.
Not to mention, there were many knights in the Holy Continent that relied on weapons.
As for law-defying wizards, they often had a hard time finding spiritual beasts of their rank to make their magic staff.
The dwarves in the Central Continent were known for making triggers and puppets, which pushed forgery to the fringe.
Abel had no need for holy nails. All he needed was a blank gear to put sockets on and make rune words. He rarely even needed to use his blacksmith skills, let alone needing a holy object to a.s.sist him.
Even if he did, nothing came close to his Horadric Malus anyway.
