Jiang Chen followed Bartley and met Gold.
Gold was a typical Dwarf Clan member, standing only about one meter tall, with a square face and a full beard. The Dwarf Clan held absolute authority in crafting equipment.
The Legendary Set that Jiang Chen wore was also made by the Dwarf Clan.
They combined various materials to craft equipment.
The craftsman Gold before them was a Grand Level Craftsman, capable of making Grand-level Equipment.
After Bartley explained their intentions, Gold looked at Jiang Chen. "A perfect-grade [Nine-Tails] Hezi? Let me see it."
Jiang Chen presented a palm-sized Hezi with nine tails.
Gold nodded. "It is indeed a perfect-grade Hezi. It can be used to craft Legendary Equipment and can grant the power of the Cannibal Tribe. The Nine-Tails Hezi is considered high-end even among the Cannibal Tribe."
Jiang Chen asked, "If it's integrated into Legendary Equipment, will the equipment still have attributes?"
"No."
"No?"
"Of course not," Gold said. "This is a Six-stage Helix, equivalent to Six-stage Legendary Equipment. It already has very high defensive power. Only a fool would need to integrate it into Legendary Equipment."
"Integrating it into Legendary Equipment is just like using fragments. This allows one to gain different abilities, but these abilities are quite limited and simply can't compare to a perfect-grade Hezi."
Jiang Chen was puzzled.
Gold explained, "Hezi can attach to the human body, acting like invisible armor. It enables Priests to automatically absorb enemy attacks and defend against them."
"This process is very complicated and requires a specific kind of stone, the White Moon God Stone. Only such a stone can store the Hezi."
Bartley asked, "Is this stone hard to find?"
"Yes."
"Where should we look for it?"
"It's available in the Alliance of All-Gods Warehouse, but it needs to be exchanged for Merit Points. You need to exchange for this White Moon God Stone material before I can craft."
This seemed simple enough, as Jiang Chen still had Merit Points!
The three quickly arrived at the All-God's Temple.
Merit Points are very valuable. They can be exchanged for materials, equipment, or even to advance to the [Apostles], [Cataclysm], or even the [Order] series to obtain corresponding attributes.
[First-stage Catastrophe: All Resistance +1200, Four-dimensional Attributes +1200, Skill Attack Power +25%, Skill Cooldown Reduction 20%, Damage Immunity 20%]
These were the attributes granted by a First-stage [Cataclysm]—quite impressive indeed.
The increase in abnormal state resistance, Four-dimensional Attributes, skill cooldown time, and damage immunity were all desirable attributes.
Attributes granted by the [Order] series were even higher.
In contrast, Jiang Chen's Four-dimensional Attributes were pitifully low.
After Bartley explained their intentions, the staff member said, "Exchanging for the White Moon God Stone requires 4,000,000 Merit Points."
Jiang Chen looked at the Attribute Value on his Badge.
Huh...
3,800,000 Merit Points?
That's not enough?
The staff member looked at Jiang Chen. "Hero, as you're a [Cataclysm] series powerhouse, we can offer you a 20% discount. That makes it 3,200,000 Merit Points in total. Would you like to exchange for the White Moon God Stone?"
"Exchange."
"Very well, please wait a moment, and I will bring you the White Moon God Stone."
The staff member quickly fetched the White Moon God Stone from the warehouse and deducted 3,200,000 Merit Points.
Jiang Chen originally had 3,800,000 Merit Points and suddenly lost 3,200,000. He felt the pinch. This was even after a 20% discount for being part of the [Cataclysm] Sequence.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have had enough!
Now he was left with only 600,000 Merit Points.
Jiang Chen couldn't help but complain aloud, "What exactly is this White Moon God Stone made of, to cost 3,200,000 Merit Points?"
"This is a divine material that can store Hezi. It's only found in the world of the Cannibal Tribe. When a member of the Cannibal Tribe dies, this stone can be used to store their Hezi and allow it to survive," the staff member explained.
"Survive?"
"Yes, survive. If a Hezi isn't stored within a certain period, it will disappear. However, the White Moon God Stone can keep the Hezi alive. It's just like the Convenant Space, which allows Covenant Beasts to live inside; it's the same principle."
"Moreover, as a special material, the White Moon God Stone can be integrated into equipment. Many legendary forge masters like to use it to create Hezi's equipment and harness the Hezi's perfect power, but it has to be a complete Hezi to work."
Well, those Merit Points were well spent!
Just then, a few Titan Tribe members entered the hall, and one man said bluntly, "I want to exchange for a White Moon God Stone."
"I'm very sorry, but there was only one White Moon God Stone in the warehouse, and it has already been exchanged," the attendant apologized.
The Titan looked at Jiang Chen, then at the White Moon God Stone in Jiang Chen's hand, and sized him up. "Human Race?"
Jiang Chen smiled. "You're a step too late."
Good thing I came early, or it would have been gone.
What luck!
The Titan Tribe member seemed unwilling to give up. "Friend, let me have the White Moon God Stone. It's very important to me. Return the stone, and I'll give you your Merit Points back."
Who the hell does he think he is! Hasn't he heard of first come, first served? Give it to him?
Jiang Chen turned to leave with Angelina.
Several Titan Tribe members blocked Jiang Chen's way. His brow furrowed. Are they planning to rob me openly?
Corey furrowed his brows. "I am Corey of the Nichol Family. I'm repeating myself: the White Moon God Stone is very important to me, so return it."
"Kid, do you know where you are? This is the Titan World."
"You'd better give it back; otherwise, you won't get the White Moon God Stone," one of the Titans threatened.
"Don't say we didn't give you a chance."
Bartley came over, an arrogant expression on his face. "What, is the Nichol Family so great? He's my older brother. Go ahead and try something, Corey."
Corey stared at Bartley in surprise. "Bartley, is that you? You actually came back?"
"Indeed, it is I," Bartley affirmed.
Bartley pulled out a recorder. "Corey, everything you've just said and done has been recorded. You used the identity of the Nichol Family and the status of a Son of God to pressure a Hero, openly attempting to snatch away the stone. Wait for your Sanction!"
Corey's expression changed, but then he composed himself. "When did you see me forcing him? I just asked him to return it. Besides, this is the Alliance God's Temple; why would I make a move here?"
"Even if you are a Prosecutor, you still need evidence."
"I have no time for your nonsense. Let's go, Big Bro," Bartley said dismissively.
Jiang Chen glanced at Corey and turned to leave the Alliance God's Temple.
Corey was fuming with rage. Damn it, how did I run into him?
Although Bartley was just an intern Prosecutor, he still had the authority of a Prosecutor, which could restrain any Son of God or any Hero.
The three of them walked out of the Alliance God's Temple.
"Is this Nichol Family really that powerful?" Jiang Chen asked.
"They're decent. They're one of the high-ranking families in the Alliance of All-Gods in the Titan World. My grandfather is the Chief Prosecutor of the Titan World, and his grandfather is one of the supreme commanders of the Alliance," Bartley explained.
"Brother Jiang, you can rest easy. I am a Prosecutor, and it's my job to investigate whether others are betraying the Continent of All-Gods. I will definitely report him, and he won't escape the consequences," he assured.
"I'm afraid that won't be enough!" Jiang Chen remarked.
"After all, he is from the Nichol Family. Someone higher up will cover for him. But this was a warning to him. You're my big brother; how could I let others bully you!" Bartley uttered, a trace of pride on his face.
Being a prisoner in the Cannibal Tribe's world was one thing, but being back in the Titan World is a different story.
"I thought you were just an intern?" Jiang Chen inquired.
"Interns have their powers too. Don't underestimate this status. In the Continent of All-Gods, status is everything. Even if you are a [Cataclysm] series, there is still [Order] above you. We are the ones supervising them; even the Sons of God are under my supervision," Bartley boasted.
"As long as they break the law, I can still bring them to justice."
"A memory check once a month?" Jiang Chen asked.
"That's not necessary for me."
"I remember Prosecutors are checked once a month, aren't they?"
"That applies only to ordinary Prosecutors, not all of them," Bartley clarified.
"There's a difference?"
"Of course, there is. Ordinary Prosecutors get checked every month, but I don't have to. Someone up high is covering for me, allowing me to avoid that entire minefield. But even if there was a check, it would be fine. I haven't betrayed the Continent of All-Gods, so there's absolutely nothing to worry about," Bartley reassured.
That makes sense...
