Chapter 1868: Chapter 584: Destruction or Protection (6k)

The Emperor’s Spirit was invigorated, and his eyes shone brightly.

"Thinking about it this way makes sense; ordinary believers, when facing another believer, always wish for eternal life or to enhance their physical abilities.

And the abilities related to potions have also become desirable due to the recent stir caused by potions, leading to wishes related to them...

Moreover, what ordinary people most long for is the transcendents’ control over magic power, which aligns with the imagined control of the mind...

All these abilities combined are the fantasies that ordinary people would conjure!"

However, the excitement of discovering the truth only lasted for a moment before the Emperor immediately remembered the pressing matters at hand.

The current focus is not on how this unknown deity’s power came to be, but on how to handle this troublesome unknown deity.

Based on the current intelligence, this unknown deity has already grown into a formidable entity, even capable of bestowing power to cultivate believers to the Seventh Rank.

That proves the deity itself has at least reached the 8th Rank!

And from the data on the growth trajectory of the Red Moon Church, it’s clear that the church is steadily developing and strengthening, and its strongest believer is gradually becoming more powerful, in line with the growth pattern of faithful gods.

It can basically be judged as gradually growing from weakness.

In his secret research institute, even with reference answers and existing knowledge, the group of researchers could only create a Faith God at the level of the Seventh Rank.

Yet this deity, seemingly naturally formed under the starry sky, turned out to be even more outstanding than the results of those researchers!

The Emperor felt a surge of absurdity.

It felt like his painstakingly nurtured culture medium couldn’t sustain life, yet another’s casually thrown jar was filled with thriving growth.

But now, with speculations about the Red Moon Church, the Emperor was in a dilemma about how to proceed.

Normally, when facing such an entity with 8th Rank combat power and a threatening presence, he would undoubtedly choose to eradicate it without mercy.

No one knows how much chaos an uncontrollable deity, now posing a threat, could wreak.

But...

This is a perfect observation sample; should it really be destroyed just like that?

Even those researchers couldn’t achieve such a result; destroying such a rare miracle would be a pity.

If it could be used as a reference, even if just to collect a bit of data...

The results he expected might save years or even decades of time...

The Emperor furrowed his brow and closed his eyes in contemplation, his fingers drumming impatiently on the desk, weighing the pros and cons of this matter.

The atmosphere in the room was so tense that even the reporter standing there couldn’t help feeling nervous.

No one knew how long the gloomy atmosphere lasted, until the Emperor’s drumming fingers suddenly lifted and then fell heavily, his eyes suddenly opening wide.

"Send someone to investigate for me!

I need all the intelligence on this church! Including their believers, suspected believers, and their sphere of influence, areas they frequent, and so on!

Let the teacher...

Let those few free high-level Mechanicians cooperate, but absolutely do not let the Red Moon Church become aware!"

The Emperor paused in his speech, stopping for a moment to change his mind.

If there really was an investigation, his teacher’s silent data monitoring would certainly be most suitable, but he had already arranged for the teacher to research a trump card against Fan Mao, so troubling others was inappropriate.

"Understood!"

......

Meanwhile, underground on the battlefield planet

The hooded believer lay in a corner of the blood flesh cavern, weak breath swiftly being restored.

With divine arts bestowed by an artificial abnormality, his self-healing ability rivaled that of witches and insect swarms, with no superficial injuries present, but the depletion of magic power was unavoidable.

As someone who had just broken through to the Seventh Rank, even with divine arts, fighting a seasoned opponent of the same rank, even with Bai Yi’s power, was quite the challenge.

Achieving an even match was already very difficult, let alone succeeding in a victory this time.

Utilizing the surrounding fungus blanket to restore some state, the hooded believer opened his eyes and glanced to his side.

This time, his opponent, the high-level Mage, lay on the ground, but compared to himself, the high-level Mage looked much more miserable.

Numerous parts of his body were already charred and blackened with penetrating wounds, and the highly defensive magic robe was completely destroyed, with almost no magic power left.

Exhaling a breath with a metallic taste, the hooded believer leaned back relaxedly against the fungus-covered wall.

"The strength of high-tier is indeed not just in name; if not for His Highness’s bestowal, I might not have been able to hold back..."

He lowered his hand to his waist, and next to the bottle hanging there, an ice crystal-like metal badge had completely lost its power.

The high-level Mage surprisingly hid a technique up his sleeve at the crucial moment, relying on a special magic power technique to unleash a powerful magic with the strength of the 8th Rank.

It nearly vaporized his vast blood volume in one blow, and unlike a normal witch, using a resurrection armor was extremely demanding.

Fortunately, before the mission, he also acquired this badge as a life-preserving technique.

At the critical moment, he activated the badge’s power, forcibly freezing that magic, which bought him the time to evade.

When he received it, he inquired with His Highness about it.

It was said that when His Highness was researching newly acquired knowledge, he coincidentally found that all the necessary components for a creation’s blueprint were available, leading to the creation of an experimental artifact.
