Chapter 924 - 119: New Holy Relic of Glory: Book of Prayer (Part 3)
"So their doctrine includes: all death is sacred, but for Kane, only murder is sacred; murder is a pious act — do not rush; murder is a reward in itself; it’s good to kill with someone else’s hand, but better with your own; kill Mole’s followers without hesitation!"
"That’s why Kane is more believed in by the Dark Elves, since they love plots and assassinations and such. If this Holy Relic of Glory is passed from the Dark Elf to the Spider God, it wouldn’t be surprising. After all, the Spider God is also one of the divine spirits worshiped by Dark Elves."
Could it possibly not be acquired through war?
The connection between the divine spirits in this world is closer than Su Li expected.
Su Li then asked curiously, "Do you understand the Elvish script on it? What does it say?"
"It reads as [Book of Prayer], and the proverb says: The so-called blessing is when mortals seek a glance from the divine spirit."
After saying this, Hilude spoke with delight, "If that’s the case, this Holy Relic of Glory might not just be usable by Dark Elves; we can use it too!"
"Hmm~" Grondahl stroked his beard, pondered for a moment, and said, "This I’m not sure about, generally speaking, Holy Relics of Glory are universal across races and churches. For example, the Water Repelling Pearl is the Holy Relic of Glory for the Mannan Church, yet it ended up in goblin’s hands, but finally doesn’t hinder the territory’s use."
"However, ultimately I’m a mage, not a theologian or priest, so I suggest bringing this Book of Prayer back to the territory and letting the Shepherd Leader from the Sun Goddess Church have a look. To avoid being infiltrated and influenced by conspiracy. After all, this is Kane’s item, we must be cautious."
That makes sense!
If it were another divine spirit’s item, Su Li would have immediately used it, but no one knows if the God of Conspiracy left any hidden traps on the Book of Prayer.
So Su Li directly handed this item to Demster, the Knight of Mole, best suited to store Kane’s items. With rough skin and strong body, even conspiracy might struggle to restrain or affect him.
After Demster received it, Su Li clicked his tongue and asked, "I feel like you have quite a few enemies in the Mole Sect! Kane is a foe, and the undead mage is ’undying and unyielding’ with you. Do you have other enemies?"
"Of course, there are quite a few." Demster casually observed the Holy Relic with wit and replied, "You forgot those vampires, who like targeting women with blood, old people’s remains, and dying children, bullying the weak and helpless."
Indeed, the reputation is most easily damaged by those enemies.
From what Su Li knows, vampires in this world aren’t frail sicklings or weaklings; they can wield heavy swords, don red armor, and fight on the battlefield.
Through Demster’s speech, Su Li somewhat gathered why Mole has so many enemies. This God of Watcher of Death is probably a neurotic type.
However, Demster’s subsequent words made Su Li glad.
"Lord, I researched this Holy Relic of Glory just now, and it seems it can use all the Divine Magic of our Church."
Hilude’s heroic face lit up with spirit and immediately said, "Obviously, the spider crowd also used a large amount of their Divine Magic just now. By this calculation, this Holy Relic should allow the holder to use the divine magic of their respective deity’s church."
Su Li calmly analyzed, "Then the full function of this Holy Relic can be inferred. If our Commander-in-Chief owns this Book of Prayer, he can use all of the Sun Goddess Church’s Divine Magic, and when he does, it will grant corresponding effects to the entire army!"
The other knights nodded, this deduction is very reasonable. After all, the terrifying scene just now left an impression on everyone, and monsters triggered the Spider God’s Divine Magic almost simultaneously, obtaining Miracle’s Jaw.
If not due to hive consciousness, it’s likely the effect of this Book of Prayer.
Hilude, who thought deeply, immediately said, "It couldn’t be the collective consciousness of the insect swarm because almost all spiders activated Miracle’s Jaw at that time. The Spider God couldn’t just grant Divine Magic to a group of weak spiders."
Even Reya, a generous goddess, only granted divine magic when followers transitioned to official ranks. The Spider God’s divine power wouldn’t be given to a bunch of measly spiders.
Then, it’s obvious to conclude, it’s due to the effect of this Book of Prayer.
Thinking this way, Su Li realized this [Book of Prayer] is undoubtedly a strategic treasure.
If at that time he leads 1000 elite knights, using Divine Magic, he can extend its range to the entire army, which means giving all knights several more chances to use divine magic.
The Sun Goddess Church’s Divine Magic has some powerful ones, such as [Violet’s Lance], where for a minute, a devout follower with a long lance can imbue the weapon’s tip with the Goddess’ divine power, greatly enhancing its armor-piercing ability.
If he uses this divine magic in battle, it means a large number of knights in the army would gain great attack power, with divine power affixed to the lance tip, even an ordinary person could pierce a giant’s body with a long lance, inflicting massive damage to monsters.
