Hobert looked at the Sealed Artifact in his hand, which was shaped like a delicate porcelain doll. It was very well-behaved in the "Nation of Disorder", only carrying a smile but not emitting laughter.
Using the authority of the "Nation of Disorder", Hobert knew that this Sealed Artifact had the characteristic of being alive and would intermittently emit a "giggling" laughter.
When this laughter appeared, all males and male creatures within 10 kilometers, including the holder, would mistake the doll for the opposite sex they had long admired, and this opposite sex was currently presenting the most seductive state.
Hobert sighed: This is an indiscriminate attack ability. The holder's only advantage is knowing the consequences caused by this laughter and being able to prepare in advance.
Its abilities include: "It can become invisible; it can enter the 'Mirror World'; it can create mystical viruses. If there is enough time, it can create a plague that sweeps across a country; it can maximize the holder's personal charm; it can offset Beyonder damage by burning hair; it can create blizzards, avalanches, earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, and other disasters."
Hobert touched his short hair. If he used the method of burning hair to offset the damage, his little bit of hair might be burned away in less than two seconds.
As for its negative effects: "If the holder uses it for more than 1 minute cumulatively, if it is a male, he will turn into a female; if it is a female, she will love females from then on, and the accumulation will restart after 6 hours of rest; the holder will not be able to see his appearance in the mirror. When he sees himself, it means that the holder has been completely trapped in the 'Mirror World' and will never be able to return to the real world; after using it once, he will be prone to various disasters in the next 6 days and will implicate the people around him; after using it once, he will be very tired of reading and studying in the next 3 days, and may even be so tired that he wants to commit suicide."
Hobert smiled. The last negative effect was obviously influenced by the final blow of the "Hundred-Eyed Devil Monarch".
Its negative effects did not seem as powerful as the "0-70" he had obtained before, but they were difficult to avoid. Hobert found it difficult to continuously "distort" his gender. Obviously, this Sealed Artifact was somewhat unfriendly to male Beyonders.
Moreover, his abilities such as "distortion" and "tampering" could not profoundly affect the "Mirror World".
As for the third and fourth points, as long as he found the right way, it would not be difficult to avoid them.
Hobert simply did not carry out further sealing, because with his current level, even a new seal would be difficult to achieve the desired effect.
It would be better to simply put it in the "Nation of Disorder" for use and then seal it after advancement.
Next was the naming stage. When Hobert was chatting with Lawrence and the others a few days ago, he recalled that the Grade 0 Sealed Artifacts in the orthodox churches also had names in addition to their numbers.
Even some special Grade 1 Sealed Artifacts also had their own names in addition to their numbers.
For Hobert, this made the naming stage a lot more complicated.
He thought about it and named the Sealed Artifact in his hand: "0-71" Calamity Porcelain Doll.
Then the name of "0-70" was also changed accordingly to: "0-70" Creation Bracelet.
Hobert, who was quite satisfied with this name, went to look at another Sealed Artifact he had seized, which was a pure black ring formed by the "Demoness of Black".
Its abilities encompassed most of the "Demoness of Unaging's" abilities. After sealing it a bit, the negative effects were still relatively easy to avoid. Currently, using it in the real world for 10 minutes would not be affected in any way.
After naming this ring "1-111", Hobert returned to the real world in the form of a bestowal, carrying the Sealed Artifact "1-101" corresponding to Sequence 4 "Parasite" of the "Marauder" pathway, and the Sealed Artifact "1-102" corresponding to Sequence 4 "Puppet" of the "Prisoner" pathway.
Then he set up the altar and offered sacrifices to the "Evernight Goddess".
In fact, this sacrifice should have been carried out long ago. Previously, when the "Evernight Goddess" saved him and Audrey and allowed him to avoid sharing memories with Trunsoest, he needed to express his gratitude.
However, Hobert felt that he might still need to pray for the power of the "Evernight Goddess" during this war, so it would be better to perform the sacrifice together after the war.
What he didn't expect was that the "Creator" himself solved the difficulties, but he still had to perform the sacrifice to thank the Evernight Goddess for her previous help.
As for these two sacrificial Worships, Hobert had already thought about them. "1-101" was easy to attract Amon, and Hobert needed to use it carefully and avoid it seriously, but the orthodox churches could use it with confidence.
Unless Amon's avatars were crazy, He would not easily attack the Beyonders of the church.
And "1-102" and "1-103" were both Sealed Artifacts corresponding to "Puppet", and one of them could be sacrificed.
So, after setting up the altar and placing a bowl of fine sand, Hobert piously chanted: "The Evernight Goddess who stands higher than the cosmos and more eternal than eternity…
"Your devout believer begs for your attention;
"Begging you to open the door to the Divine Kingdom;
"Thank you for bringing me and Audrey back to Earth before, and thank you for allowing me to keep my secret.
"I hereby offer sacrifices to express my gratitude."
A sense of peace that made people feel at ease descended around the altar, and Hobert seemed to see the deep night sky above the altar.
The next moment, the door dotted with stars opened, and a huge suction force sucked away "1-101" on the altar.
Hobert was stunned: Does the Evernight Goddess think one Sealed Artifact is enough?
In fact, the value of an orthodox god being able to respond to Hobert's prayers at any time is immeasurable. After all, the Evernight Goddess really has churches and Nighthawks, and so many dependents and believers.
Unlike the "Creator" and the "Fool", who have only a few dependents and very few believers.
Just as Hobert was about to thank the Evernight Goddess again, the fine sand he had placed aside suddenly flew out of the bowl and formed a line of words in front of the altar. The meaning of connecting the words was: This is the thank-you gift for saving you.
Hobert was stunned: "Respected Evernight Goddess, are you not interested in the second sacrificial offering? I can change it."
The sand on the table was blown away by a gentle breeze, forming a new line of words: No, I need you to do something for me.
Clang ~
The door dotted with stars closed, and the Evernight Goddess disconnected from the altar. The deep sense of peace also disappeared.
Hobert was stunned for a while before he understood that the Evernight Goddess had already marked the price for allowing him to have enough Concealment to avoid being affected by Trunsoest.
The fact that the Evernight Goddess did not say what she wanted him to do meant that Hobert's current strength was not enough to help Her complete that matter.
He thought to himself: You're not going to ask me to help you fetch water from the River of Eternal Darkness, are you? That's Klein's job, how can I compete with him for it?
Hobert shook his head with a smile: This is obviously the Evernight Goddess's investment in me. As for how high the returns will be paid in the future, let's talk about it later.
As far as he was concerned, if he succeeded in building a country in the future, there would be no problem in allowing the Church of the Evernight Goddess to preach in the country, but if the church wanted to interfere in the country's political affairs, sorry, no way!
Putting "1-102" back into the "Nation of Disorder", Hobert rested for a while and prepared to deal with the spoils distribution the next day.
…
The former kingdom of the Earth Mother, within the Source of Life.
In the early morning, crystal clear dewdrops rolled between the dense leaves, eventually falling onto the forest path that was very harmonious with the entire lush forest.
In the church headquarters, which seemed to be built on a towering tree, the Pope convened an emergency meeting and listened to the reports of several archbishops on the war that had occurred yesterday.
The main reporter was Simpson, but he himself was not here, but attended the meeting in the form of a wooden stake standing in front of the conference table.
This wooden stake was more than one person tall and also carried a verdant branch of leaves, as if it were a piece of wood that had just been cut down from the forest outside.
The wooden stake had rough eyes, ears, and a mouth made of bark. Simpson, thousands of miles away, could share the senses and functions of these organs.
After he reported a few words, an archbishop in the headquarters couldn't help but plan to ask: "Are you sure that the 'Creator' dispatched 25 demigods in this battle?"
"I'm sure!" Simpson said: "I was a little unbelievable at the time, so I counted twice!
"Many Beyonder organizations that we didn't expect are very likely to be loyal to the 'Creator', or organizations that have in-depth cooperation with Hobert."
"For example, the Tony Manor in the Rosterd Archipelago, the Balk family in the Southern Continent, and the Tudor family, which has always been in hiding.
"What is certain is that they are all families loyal to the 'Creator'.
"In addition, the Temperance Faction of the 'Rose School', Element Dawn, the Sanguine, and the Spiritual Research Society all have good cooperation with Hobert."
Another archbishop, also attending the meeting in the form of a wooden stake, was somewhat surprised: "Spiritual Research Society?"
The Spiritual Research Society is the organization to which April belongs.
Simpson nodded: "Yes, their vice president, April, personally participated in the war this time."
The meeting room suddenly fell silent. Everyone knew that this April was a traitor to the Church, and the Church of the Earth Mother had always regarded the Spiritual Research Society as a hostile organization.
Another archbishop asked: "It is not difficult to understand that the Temperance Faction cooperates with Hobert, after all, they have a common enemy. Why did Element Dawn and the Sanguine participate in the war?"
"Sorry." Simpson said: "I was unable to find out relevant information."
The Pope, who looked full of love, raised his hand and said to Simpson: "Continue."
After Simpson reported the process of the war, everyone fell into silence.
The Demoness Sect's defeat was a matter of course. That was four Angels, a full four Angels! Plus more than twenty demigods, it would have been no problem to attack the 'Source of Life'.
Simpson said: "According to my analysis, these four Angels are not all loyal to the 'Creator', and it seems that the condition of two of the Angels is not very good."
Everyone did not make any comments on this, but if they were to be enemies with the 'Creator', they still had to prepare for war as if there were four Angels!
The Pope suddenly said in a soft voice: "The Church's attitude towards the 'Creator' is cooperation, and Hobert also needs the power of the Church.
"This mutual assistance model must continue to be extended. In the future, we may get more benefits from it!"
After setting the tone, the Pope ended the meeting.
However, the Pope, Pope Roland, and the Dean of the Institute of Life Sciences did not leave.
With a wave of his hand, the Pope summoned a green leaf that floated in from outside the window.
The green leaf quickly grew larger, and Hobert's portrait appeared on it.
The Pope said: "This is Hobert's appearance. He looks too much like Rex. And April is also involved."
In the end, I don't know if he was asking himself or the other two Angels: "Is this a coincidence?"
The three Angels fell silent at the same time.
… …
The next day, Hobert got up early and asked Mr. Fool for leave, as he would not be able to attend today's gathering.
After washing his face, combing his hair, and changing into a more formal tailcoat, he carried a large wooden box to the side hall of the Lord's Mansion.
Hobert told the butler Allen: "If I am meeting with guests and new guests arrive, please ask them to wait in the main hall."
Allen agreed and asked his subordinates to serve tea and snacks.
Now Allen is not only the butler of the Lord's Mansion, but also the butler of the Longtail Island Governor's Mansion, and Fors trusts him very much.
Soon, Hobert welcomed his first guest, the Sanguine Countess Rosalind.
After politely inviting the Sanguine Countess to sit down, the two talked about the extraordinary war that had just ended. The number of Sanguine participating in the war was not large, but two members died in battle.
However, because their self-healing ability was very good, the injured had already recovered.
Hobert opened the wooden box next to him and, according to the previous agreement, took out the prepared 5 Beyonder characteristics and handed them to Rosalind.
The Countess simply checked the Beyonder characteristics and handed Hobert the 9 Beyonder characteristics they had seized yesterday.
In fact, they also seized a Sealed Artifact, but according to the agreement, the Sealed Artifact belonged to the Sanguine.
After completing the previously agreed transaction, Rosalind was not in a hurry to leave, and Hobert was not in a hurry to see the guest off.
The two drank tea and chatted.
Hobert smiled and said: "This is a very perfect cooperation. We each get what we need."
The beautiful Rosalind said meaningfully: "This is indeed a cooperation that exceeded our expectations."
She was referring to the strength of the participants and the scale of the war exceeding expectations.
Hobert then got to the point: "I think we should establish a long-term cooperation mechanism, because we have a common enemy.
"In the future, we can jointly launch attacks on the 'Rose School'!"
For Hobert, his battle was not over yet.
He wanted to use the achievements and momentum gained from this victory to reposition his relationship with various organizations.
To put it bluntly, Hobert gathered everyone together with benefits this time. In fact, during the battle, apart from the commendable performances of the Balk family, the Tony family, and the Tudor family, the performances of the other forces were very poor.
Otherwise, this battle would have been a greater victory and given the Demoness Sect a heavier blow.
After Hobert repositioned the relationship between the various parties, he strived to be able to immediately gather the required organizations if there were similar battles in the future, and the other party could invest in the battle relatively seriously!
This process is probably from a mob to a group of stragglers centered on the "Creator" forces.
If you want to obtain a very elite extraordinary force, you must go through constant tempering in war.
Countess Rosalind said seriously: "I will convey your thoughts to the Marquis and will also attach great importance to the cooperation with the respected 'Creator'."
Then she added: "I heard that the 'Traveler's Gate' between the Lord's Mansion and Backlund will be reopened at noon. At that time, I will immediately return to Backlund, and I will come back soon to convey the Sanguine' decision.
"And my subordinates will not leave and will participate in the Picking Festival tomorrow."
Hobert smiled and said: "Welcome more Sanguine to taste the delicacies and fresh fruits and vegetables."
Then they talked about helping the Sanguine crush the Beyonder characteristics. Rosalind said that there was no need for this, and the Sanguine had a way to crush them themselves.
At this time, Rosalind bid farewell, and Hobert politely sent her to the door.
Miss Sharron was already waiting in the main hall. After Hobert sent off the Sanguine Countess, she passed through the wall and stood there watching the servants take away Rosalind's water glass and wipe the table and chairs.
It's just that the servants couldn't see the somewhat illusory Miss Sharron.
After the servants finished cleaning, Hobert asked them to leave, invited Miss Sharron to sit down, and placed a teacup in front of her.
Just as he was about to pour her tea, Miss Sharron said: "No need, I don't drink."
Now she can go without food or water for a week.
However, Hobert still poured the tea: "This is politeness."
Then he opened the wooden box next to him again, took out a Beyonder characteristic of "Puppet", and pushed it to Sharron: "This is the reward promised to you for participating in the war."
After Sharron glanced at the box, she nodded slightly, and then with a wave of her hand, a small pile of Beyonder characteristics gushed out from the middle of the table like a spring.
There were also two Beyonder characteristics of "Demoness of Despair", one was the spoils of the Temperance Faction's joint siege, and the other was the spoils of the joint siege with Klein.
However, for Klein, these Beyonder characteristics were of no use, so when dividing the spoils, he gave all the Beyonder characteristics he seized to the Temperance Faction.
Klein therefore obtained the priority right to choose Sealed Artifacts. In the end, he obtained 1 Grade 1 Sealed Artifact and 2 Grade 2 Sealed Artifacts.
Especially that Grade 1 Sealed Artifact made the "Fool"'s demigod-level Sealed Artifact no longer so thin.
Hobert simply counted. Sharron brought a total of 26 Beyonder characteristics. Except for the two Beyonder characteristics of "Demoness of Despair", the other characteristics were mainly Sequence 6 and Sequence 7.
After further negotiations with Hobert, Sharron bought 15 Sequence 9 "Prisoner" and 15 Sequence 8 "Lunatic" Beyonder characteristics for 13,000 pounds.
This was a bit beyond Hobert's expectations. He had not made corresponding preparations and could only promise to send them to her in the afternoon on the grounds that the Beyonder characteristics were not in the Lord's Mansion.
Then, according to the previous agreement, Hobert took out two Beyonder characteristics of "Puppet" and 12 other Beyonder characteristics of the corresponding sequence.
However, Sharron negotiated with Hobert again and used a Beyonder characteristic of "Puppet" to replace some Beyonder characteristics of other sequences.
This made Hobert very "embarrassed". After pulling back and forth, he agreed to use the Beyonder characteristic of "Puppet" to replace 2 "Wraith", 10 "Zombie", and 12 "Werewolf" Beyonder characteristics.
As the negotiation concluded, Hobert did a mental calculation and realized that even after trading with the Ascetics twice, he still had over thirty Beyonder characteristics from the "Prisoner", "Lunatic", and "Werewolf" pathways in his possession.
He also had a dozen or so "Zombie" Beyonder characteristics, six "Wraith" Beyonder characteristics, and two "Puppet" Beyonder characteristics.
Most importantly, he had one "Disciple of Silence" Beyonder characteristic.
This made Hobert sigh once again: Beyonder wars are truly profitable on a large scale!
These Beyonder characteristics were all spoils of war that the Ballek family and the Rose School of Thought obtained during their battles in the Southern Continent, because the Creator provided effective protection.
It had been half a year, and they were still reaping the benefits of these spoils.
After completing the transaction with Sharron, Miss Sharron was not in a hurry to leave.
So Hobert smiled and said, "I also have a 'Disciple of Silence' Beyonder characteristic here."
Sharron, who usually didn't have much emotional fluctuation, showed a subtle change in expression.
Just as Hobert expected, the "Puppet" potion, if not melting in Sharron's mouth, should be very easy to digest.
Hobert said, "But this level of Beyonder characteristic is not something to be traded, but a strategic reserve."
Sharron immediately asked, "What price do I have to pay to get it?"
As far as she was concerned, as long as the price was not unacceptable, it was better than risking hunting down the "Disciples of Silence" of the "Indulgence Faction".
"It's not what price you have to pay." Hobert said seriously, "The 'Creator' needs to have absolute trust in the Temperance faction before handing this Beyonder characteristic over to you."
Sharron quietly looked at Hobert.
After seven or eight seconds, Hobert sighed: Shouldn't she ask how to gain the 'Creator's' absolute trust at this time?
However, Sharron wasn't just now so "good at chatting," so Hobert asked her, "Does the Temperance Faction need the protection of a deity?"
The "bodyguard lady" with delicate features considered it and said, "Yes!"
They needed it too much. If they had the protection of a deity, the Temperance Faction wouldn't have to hide everywhere, avoiding the angels of the Indulgence Faction.
They could gather strength more easily, instead of becoming less and less organized as they were now.
Hobert smiled and said, "If the Temperance Faction can be loyal to the 'Creator' to a certain extent, you will not only receive a certain amount of protection, but also obtain the 'Disciple of Silence' Beyonder characteristic by completing the tasks assigned by the 'Creator'."
Then he explained, "The 'Creator' doesn't care about your beliefs, just needs you to show enough sincerity."
This time, Miss Sharron finally asked, "How to show sincerity?"
"Send 15 Beyonders to form a Beyonder squad and follow my command." Hobert said, "They can exchange for Beyonder characteristics here by earning merits.
"They can also enjoy the treatment of official Beyonders. The specific exchange plan is…"
After finishing the details of exchanging merits for Beyonder characteristics in one breath, Hobert took a sip of tea and said, "These 15 Beyonders will be protected by us, and the entire Ascetics will also receive a lot of help from us."
Miss Sharron paused for a few seconds before saying, "Sounds like a good deal."
She was Reinette Tinekerr's student, a "red and rooted" member of the Temperance Faction. After becoming a demigod, she already had some power to express her views on such matters.
However, she didn't immediately agree and said she would go back and discuss it.
The Temperance Faction didn't ask Hobert to help shatter the Beyonder characteristics. Originally, Hobert wanted to chat with Miss Sharron, but he felt that he really couldn't chat anymore, so he politely sent her away.
After waiting for a while, Hobert saw that no new guests were coming, so he asked Allen to invite Bernadette and the nominal head of the Tony family, Osment, separately.
Although both were invitations, the "invitation" for the two was different.
Bernadette was a Sequence 3, so even if he wanted to share the fruits of victory, Hobert had to invite her over to discuss it.
The Tony family was more like his own people. Hobert's invitation to him was more like a superior's appointment with a subordinate.
More than twenty minutes later, a green, very beautiful vine suddenly grew in the center of the side hall.
The vine grew taller and taller, and the leaves kept opening around, emitting a light green light, which reflected the space at the top of the vine into light green.
A graceful figure appeared in the light. The figure quickly became clear. It was Bernadette, wearing a long waisted dress.
She stepped down from the top of the vine and smiled, "Lord Hobert is finally free to see me?"
The vines behind Bernadette quickly became transparent and disappeared into the air.
Hobert smiled and said, "Distinguished guests always arrive at the last moment."
He invited Bernadette to sit down and poured her tea, just like the two guests he had met before.
Bernadette raised her hand, and a delicate little leather bag appeared in her palm: "It's all in here."
As she spoke, she threw the leather bag to Hobert.
Hobert caught the leather bag and opened it to take a look. Although the leather bag was small, it had more than twenty compartments, separating all the Beyonder characteristics.
Hobert also opened his wooden box and took out the "Mysticologist" Beyonder characteristic that he had prepared, as well as one copy each of the Beyonder characteristics from Sequence 9 "Mystery Pryer" to Sequence 5 "Constellations Master".
"You're at a bit of a disadvantage in this transaction." Hobert smiled and said, "But considering that I will have to provide you with help in the future, let's trade like this first, and talk about the help later."
Bernadette nodded: "Okay."
Hobert asked, "Can you tell me now what kind of help you need me to provide? I can prepare for it."
Bernadette crossed her legs: "I only glimpsed a very vague future. I don't know exactly what kind of help it is, but it won't be life-threatening for you."
Hobert thought to himself that your action is very unladylike, but he also thought that describing a woman as a lady in the Intis Republic is like scolding someone.
So he didn't comment on it and continued the conversation just now: "Okay."
Then Hobert asked with a smile: "Are you interested in establishing a longer term cooperative partnership with us?"
"Long term cooperative partner?" Bernadette was somewhat interested. "Tell me about it in detail."
"It means that we maintain a very close cooperation with each other without interfering in each other's internal problems, and we are in a relationship of priority support." Hobert explained:
"If Element Dawn is in danger, we will support you as soon as possible.
"Similarly, if we need it, Element Dawn must also quickly organize forces to support us.
"Such support must have at least reciprocity, just like our cooperation this time. As long as you participate in the war, I will pay you a reward and promise a favor. Correspondingly, you will share the spoils with me.
"Our contributions and gains are basically equal."
Bernadette pinched her chin and thought for a while: "That's a good suggestion."
Hobert added: "There is a premise that if I go to help Element Dawn, I will listen to your dispatch, but if I think it is too dangerous, I reserve the right to refuse.
"If you come to help us, the same is true, and you can also reserve the right to refuse."
"You're very thoughtful!" Bernadette asked, "Do we need to sign any agreement?"
Hobert smiled: "That's not necessary."
He sighed in his heart that it was a pleasure to negotiate with the leader of such a Beyonder organization. As long as the other party felt it was appropriate, they immediately confirmed this in-depth cooperative relationship.
The two chatted for a while, and Bernadette got up and stretched out her hand. A braid made of golden hair hung down from the void.
Bernadette grabbed the braid and prophesied like a prophecy: "From then on, the 'Creator's' reputation will spread far and wide, and he will officially participate in the game of this era!"
Hobert smiled and said, as if he was also saying a prophecy: "The change of era is originally an era of the rise of new forces!"
He believed that the change of era was not a secret in the "Queen Mystic's" place,
Bernadette's eyes sank, but she quickly returned to a smile: "I will contact you when I need your help."
The braid pulled upwards into the void, and Bernadette also disappeared into the void.
Hobert drank a few sips of tea to rest, and then invited Osment of the Tony family in.
Osment, still wearing a black robe, sat politely opposite Hobert and placed the stone box containing the spoils on the table.
The stone box opened, revealing Beyonder characteristics neatly arranged in small compartments. The box had three layers, and once they were all laid out, the sheer number of Beyonder characteristics altered the light and atmosphere of the entire side hall.
Although the Tony family joined the war relatively late, their spoils of war ranked first in both quality and quantity.
This was mainly due to the help of Beverly and Raymond. Although these two angels were not in good condition, Raymond had to return to Tony Manor after participating in the battle for more than twenty minutes, and Beverly also returned to the spirit world after participating for more than half an hour.
But their brief assistance still achieved results that Lawrence and the others could not match.
Hobert pointed to the 'Demoness of Unaging' Beyonder characteristic: "You're even planning to give me this?"
This is the second Sequence 3 level spoils of war received so far.
"Yes," Osment said with a smile.
This made Hobert a little embarrassed, because it was difficult to set a price.
Raymond had already set the tone, selling the 'Demoness of Despair' level Beyonder characteristic to Hobert for 50,000 pounds.
The 'Demoness of Unaging' Beyonder characteristic was one level higher. When it came to things at this level, it wasn't just a matter of the price of a Sequence 4 characteristic increasing by one or two times.
Hobert didn't rush to set a price, but asked again: "Have you not considered keeping some 'Witch' pathway Beyonder ingredients?"
Osment shook his head: "Beyonders of this pathway are prone to bringing disasters and attracting a lot of trouble."
The Tony family had already mastered the potion formulas for three pathways; there was no need to open up a new pathway.
Moreover, they lacked corresponding potion formulas, especially those for demigods and above, which were almost impossible to obtain through trading.
As for the issue of male family members being unwilling to switch pathways and become women, it was an almost negligible factor.
Hobert had no choice but to say: "For this 'Demoness of Unaging' Beyonder characteristic, you name a price."
Osment said seriously: "We hope to use this Beyonder characteristic to obtain an opportunity."
"What opportunity?"
"An opportunity to form a Beyonder team loyal to the 'Creator'!"
Hobert was slightly stunned: Look at these people's awareness!
"Okay," Hobert said with a smile: "But I won't let you suffer a loss. What is the ritual for advancing to 'War Bishop'?"
Osment immediately understood Hobert's intention and said: "There are two ways. The first is to launch a surprise attack. The more unexpected the enemy is, the more fear and panic gained from the war, and the faster the enemy collapses, the better the effect of the ritual.
"The second is to conduct a miraculous defense battle. The greater the gap between the enemy and us, the more tragic the battle, and the longer the defense lasts, the better the effect of the ritual."
Hobert nodded and said, as Osment expected: "I will find a way to help you complete the 'War Bishop' ritual, but not now, but in the not-too-distant future."
Osment said with emotion: "That would be great!"
Then he stood up and bowed slightly: "Thank you, 'Favored of God'."
Through this extraordinary war, the Tony family took the opportunity to promote another 'Iron-Blooded Knight'. Currently, the Tony family has recovered to the strength of four demigods.
If a 'War Bishop' appeared among the two 'Iron-Blooded Knights', they would completely recover from the blow of Amon's clone.
Hobert invited him to sit down and began to count the spoils of war. Osment gave a very low price, and Hobert bought all the spoils of war for only 180,000 pounds.
As for the Tony family's official Beyonder team, the number is temporarily 15 people, and Osment has half a month to form it.
After talking with the Tony family, Hobert was a little tired, so he decided to rest for a while and continue to divide the spoils of war in the afternoon.
… …
Loen Kingdom, Rubber Island.
This island is not far from the mouth of the Tussock River, with convenient transportation and beautiful scenery.
In the direction facing the sea, there is a magnificent royal manor.
In a small hall, "Protector" William I sat on a high throne, exuding a majesty that made people dare not look directly at him.
He asked Georgina, who was standing below: "Where did the 'Creator' get so many angels?"
Georgina lowered her head and said: "It's not clear. We don't know much about the battles between angels.
"The people of the Demoness Sect only know that the 'Creator' dispatched four angels, because we have not yet contacted Ms. Sherry, we do not know the specific battle process.
"But it is certain that the angels of the 'Creator' side won."
William I asked again: "Where did those demigods come from?"
"Those demigods come from many Beyonder organizations," Georgina replied: "What is certain at present is that there are members of the Aurora Order and the Tony family!"
William I was silent for a few seconds before saying: "We still underestimated the strength of the 'Creator'."
He asked: "When will Hobert be awarded the title? Is it the rank of Rear Admiral?"
"It was originally planned for next week," Georgina replied: "It's the rank of Rear Admiral."
"Change it to General!" William I said: "Give him a seat in the Lower House!"
Georgina was stunned. She reminded: "His father is already a member of the Upper House. If you give him a seat in the Lower House, the nobles and members of parliament will definitely oppose such a decision."
William I said: "Let any noble who dares to object 'show loyalty'. At this critical time, we must use all means to win over Hobert, so that we can maintain a good relationship with the 'Creator'."
He paused and said: "Didn't you say that Alice has a good impression of Hobert? Create opportunities for them. It would be best if Alice could conceive Hobert's child."
Georgina was a little surprised: "This, Hobert shouldn't marry Alice. He has feelings for Audrey…"
William I asked back: "Who said he must marry her?"
Georgina was even more surprised. She raised her head slightly and looked at William I's feet: "Your Majesty, we are, after all, the royal family!"
William I sighed: "You don't know how dangerous we are now!"
The crisis that the Loen royal family is facing now may only be understood by William I and Duke Southville.
It seems that the orthodox churches have defaulted to George III becoming a god, but the process of becoming a god is too forced, and William I does not have much confidence.
If it fails, Loen's morale will completely plummet. Under the shadow of war, the entire royal family may be destroyed.
And the 'Creator' is a force that no one had calculated on before yesterday!
While He has not yet inclined to any force, we must strive to form an alliance with Him. In addition to gaining a solid ally, it can also greatly increase the royal family's fault tolerance.
Even if George III fails, the royal family will not be completely passive, and can still use the method of selling some benefits to obtain the 'Creator's' help and tide over the risk period.
This is not just as simple as adding an ally. When the orthodox churches are preparing to use the Augustus family as a pawn, they will consider the 'Creator's' factor.
When the enemy is preparing to launch a war, they must also consider the 'Creator's' factor.
The superposition of these two factors is enough for the royal family to survive the most dangerous moment.
William I, who has been playing games in this cruel extraordinary world for more than two thousand years, is too clear about how much influence and energy this newly rising force will bring!
William I stared at Georgina: "Do as I say!
"The next main task is to find out what Hobert needs and what the 'Creator' needs!
"Do you believe it? That one from Feynapotter will also use all the means he can think of to win over the 'Creator'.
"We have such a good opportunity, of course we must make good use of it!"
"Yes!" Georgina agreed, and then asked: "Then, what is our attitude towards the Demoness Sect?"
William I thought for a while and said: "Kill a few people from the Demoness Sect, and continue to cooperate behind the scenes."
The greater the failure of the Demoness Sect, the more they will have to rely on the Loen royal family, and the easier it will be for Loen to use them in the future.
