[Ding: You have obtained: ice-type high true godhead.]
"Huh????" Su Ye's face was full of question marks as he looked at the irregular prismatic crystal within the golden light.
Divinity!? And it's Ice-type?
"Wait, is this something I should even be able to get right now?" Su Ye looked at the divinity before him with a bit of a headache.
This thing was a hot potato. It was useless to Su Ye for now, yet he didn't dare take it out. A god's divinity—to put it bluntly—wasn't something Su Ye should be able to obtain at his current level.
"This is just..." Su Ye looked at the divinity. To be honest, it was useless to him.
An Ice-type divinity meant that the divine laws contained within were all ice-attributed. Su Ye didn't have any troops under his command that could use it, and even if he did, he wouldn't give it to them.
This thing required the strength of a Demigod. Otherwise, how could a mere mortal expect to refine a divinity?
A Demigod was the minimum requirement, and they would need a matching attribute as well.
Most importantly, refining this thing took time and came with a massive drawback.
Once someone refined a divinity, their upper limit would be capped at the level of a High True God.
To other lords, this was an incomparable treasure, but to Su Ye, it was a burden—tasteless to keep but a waste to discard. If others found out he had it, it would truly become a hot potato.
"Looks like I'll have to make up a good excuse. Maybe say I got it in some other world?" Su Ye thought as he looked at the ice-type high true godhead.
He then stored it into his God Kings Treasury.
Though useless to Su Ye now, it wouldn't be bad to trade it for resources of the same grade later.
After all, Demigod lords were the most numerous in this world. Many were stuck at that stage, unable to take the final step. The difference between a Demigod and a God wasn't as simple as a single level.
A God truly signified immortality; they were symbols of eternity.
A Demigod would still die of old age, it just took a very long time. There was a fundamental difference.
"Whatever. When I take this out later, I'll just make up an excuse. The Eternal World is so vast that anything can happen. What's wrong with me obtaining the inheritance of a High True God?" Su Ye thought to himself.
He then walked out of the Divine Object Summoning Hall with Kaisha. For Su Ye, even an attribute-less divinity would be more useful than this Ice-type one.
Attribute-less meant a god of any attribute could absorb it, but an ice-attribute divinity could only be absorbed by an ice-attribute god. There was a fundamental difference.
"Time is tight and the task is heavy. System, start the Void Trial. Difficulty: Abyss!" Su Ye's voice rang out.
Kaisha's figure vanished behind Su Ye.
[Ding: Void Trial has started. Difficulty: Abyss!! You have thirty seconds to prepare!]
Endless blood-red mist spread across the borders of Su Ye's territory.
Su Ye watched this scene with a hint of surprise in his eyes. In the next moment, countless Abyssal Demons swarmed in from the borders of his territory.
Abyssal Flame Demons, and they were 5-Star Silver rank.
While their level hadn't changed, their numbers and combat power had increased significantly.
"Old friends." Su Ye looked at the Abyssal Demons invading his territory.
The slaughter began!
Su Ye sat cross-legged on the grass, opened the chat channel, and checked his private messages.
One message caught Su Ye's attention.
Usually, aside from Brother Pian and Sister Pian, very few people sent him private messages.
However, the message before him made Su Ye curious and even a bit cautious. The message read:
[One Leaf Knows Autumn: I want to buy the rifles, grenades, and Robots you have.]
"Tsk, interesting. How does this guy know I have these things? Could Lin Xiaoxiao have blabbed? No, she wouldn't. This is her business, after all. He's clearly trying to bypass her to find me."
"So, how does he know?" Su Ye looked at One Leaf Knows Autumn's name with curiosity.
"Wait, could he have some kind of prophecy talent? But that's not right either. My talent's characteristics ensure that no one can calculate my specific information. How does this guy know?" The more Su Ye thought, the more puzzled he became.
He had originally just intended to clear out the spam in his friend messages as part of his daily routine.
Su Ye narrowed his eyes, a trace of killing intent flowing through them. What exactly did this guy know? Did he know about things other than the technology?
From the look of it, he only seemed to know about the technological weapons and nothing else. The question remained: how did he find out?
If he knew Su Ye had a god-tier barracks, he wouldn't just be looking to buy technology.
Thinking of this, Su Ye opened his private messages to ask Lin Xiaoxiao if she was the one who said anything.
[Otherworld Traveler: You there?]
[Little Merchant: I'm here, Big Shot.]
[Otherworld Traveler: Do you know this guy? Did you tell him? Screenshot.jpg!]
Su Ye sent the screenshot of One Leaf Knows Autumn's message directly to Lin Xiaoxiao.
On Lin Xiaoxiao's end, she was stunned by Su Ye's message. What did I tell him? She clicked the screenshot and became even more confused. Who is this? She had an impression, but not much of one...
Lin Xiaoxiao thought carefully before remembering who One Leaf Knows Autumn was. He was the only person with a Golden Fortune she had ever blacklisted, which was why she remembered him.
Looking at the chat message, Lin Xiaoxiao also realized something was wrong. How did this guy know Su Ye had technological weapons?
[Little Merchant: Big Shot, this guy is a psycho. I blacklisted him. He started saying all sorts of nonsense right from the start, like a complete nutcase. He wanted some Gambling Agreement, trying to get something for nothing. He's basically brain-dead, so I just blocked him.]
"Ah?" Su Ye looked at Lin Xiaoxiao's reply. It seemed it wasn't her, and she had no reason to lie to him.
And what the hell was a Gambling Agreement?
"This move looks familiar, though. Isn't this exactly the kind of thing protagonists usually pull?" Su Ye was dumbfounded by this revelation.
Good grief, the classic 'propose a bet when the power gap is huge' move to get something for nothing. I'm truly impressed.
"Wait, this guy couldn't actually be a protagonist, could he?" Su Ye looked at Lin Xiaoxiao's words. It was such a classic protagonist move that it was impossible for Su Ye to forget it.
A naive arrogance that had never been beaten down, always imagining that everyone would act exactly as he envisioned, a self-centered world-view.
This was a textbook protagonist template.
"Should I test him?" Su Ye narrowed his eyes at One Leaf Knows Autumn's message.
But before testing him, Su Ye sent a reply to Lin Xiaoxiao.
[Otherworld Traveler: Alright, I'll go ask what's up. Maybe this guy has a foresight talent and found out that way?]
[Little Merchant: Hmm? That's probably it. But the guy is a psycho, so be careful, Big Shot.]
[Otherworld Traveler: OK!]
