Chapter 1211 – Seventy Percent
Right!
They still had a prophet here.
Judging from Lin Qiye’s performance at the party, this agent of the God of Prophecy and Magic’s business ability could be considered very strong, not only did he fool them, but he also teased the two gods …… Perhaps, he could really foretell the way to take in the treasure trove?
No. 22 pondered for a moment and nodded his head:
”Thousands of years ago, there were rumors in all the major ancient divine kingdoms that the Heroic King Gilgamesh had collected the five top divine artifacts.
In addition to this [King’s Treasure Trove], the other four, which are also ‘supreme’ level artifacts, are the King’s [Scepter], the King’s [Sword], the King’s [Holy Grail], and the King’s [Star Coin].
Unsurprisingly, these four artifacts should all be in this treasury.
If we want to conquer this [King’s Treasure Trove], it’s definitely unrealistic to rely on our own strength, and the only breakthrough may lie in these four ‘supreme’ artifacts that are on the same level as the treasure trove.”
”[Scepter], [Sword], [Holy Grail], [Star Coin]?” Claude seemed to have thought of something, “The …… in that old man’s hand today”
”There’s no mistake, that’s the King’s [Scepter].”
No. 22 said with certainty, “The [Scepter] that symbolizes the ‘King’s Power’ has the greatness of commandeering all power for its own use, siphoning off our realm in the plaza today is nothing, that thing, however, is capable of siphoning off even the divine power of a god.
Rumor has it that when Uruk was caught up in a divine war back then, the Heroic King Gilgamesh, used this [Scepter] to siphon off the divine power of the three main gods in one breath, raising himself to a realm infinitely close to the supreme realm, and hardened himself to support himself for nearly ten minutes under the Sumerian Supreme God.”
Hearing these words, the crowd present sucked in a breath of cool air.
Some of them, whose eyes were already flickering with a shimmering light, seemed to be playing their own little game.
”However, the [Scepter] can only be used by a specific bloodline, besides the Hero King himself, only the direct bloodline of the Alchemy Family that was sent to the Treasure Trove back then should be able to utilize its power, and even if we snatched it, we wouldn’t be able to use it at all.” No. 22 poured a pot of cold water, completely dousing these agents’ fantasies.
”What about the other three divine artifacts?” Lin Qiye asked curiously.
”The King’s [Treasure Sword] symbolizes killing, and like the [King’s Treasure Trove], it was made from the edges of the [King’s] Laws back then when the Hero King created his own Laws, and since it is itself a part of the Laws, this [Treasure Sword] itself possesses the power to cut down the gods.
Even if the person holding it is a mortal, as long as the sword is stabbed into the heart of a god, it can also be used to cut down a god.”
”The King’s [Holy Grail] symbolizes grand wishes, and is said to be an all-powerful wish-granting machine; as long as a sufficient number of lives are sacrificed to it, it will be able to fulfill any wish of the holder.”
”As for the King’s [Star Coin],…… there are too few records about it for me to know.”
A treasure trove that loots all divine artifacts, a scepter that siphons off divine power, a sword that beheads the gods, an almighty wish-granting machine, and a Star Coin with unknown abilities ……No wonder Gilgamesh was able to make the entire Sumerian divine system fearful to such an extent.
Lin Qiye could hardly imagine just how strong Gilgamesh was in his heyday.
”A [Holy Grail] that can fulfill any wish?” Someone spoke in surprise, “Then if we wish on the [Holy Grail] to take in this treasure trove, can we succeed?”
No. 22 pondered for a moment.
”Theoretically, it can.
Both the [Holy Grail] and the [King’s Treasure Trove] are ‘supreme’ level artifacts, and as long as enough lives are sacrificed to the [Holy Grail], it is indeed possible to conquer the [King’s Treasure Trove] in turn.”
”But where are there so many lives in this treasure trove? Just by the few hundred people in this city? Is that enough?”
”It shouldn’t be enough.” No. 22 shook his head, “If wishing for a few hundred lives would be enough to control the [King’s Treasure Trove], then back then, Uruk would have already dominated the world.”
The crowd once again fell into silence.
It was so hard to see a bit of hope of taking over the [King’s Treasure Trove], but it was dashed again.
”Anyway, this is a direction, it’s better than having no hope at all.” Thunder God Agent Claude said.
”Perhaps, we can think differently?” Lin Qiye, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up
”Since we can’t take in the treasure trove and satisfy the gods, what if …… we gather these four ‘supreme’ divine artifacts and go directly to kill those two gods?”
These words were like a thunderbolt, directly roaring in the ears of all the agents!
Killing the gods directly?
The crowd was first startled, and then immediately took careful stock of the situation.
”With that [sword] that possesses the power to cut down a god, it’s not like it’s not possible ……”
”Hermes and Hephaestus, although they are the main gods, but their combat power is not top-notch, with four ‘supreme’ divine artifacts, plus so many of us, maybe there really is a chance of winning?”
”[Sword] can be used by anyone, [Star Coin] ability is unknown for the time being, [Holy Grail]’s wish can be used to massacre the city to use these hundreds of people as sacrifices before we leave …… but what about [Scepter]?”
”Maybe we can find an opportunity to steal the [Scepter] and then capture a direct bloodline and force him to come out with us.”
”There are still so many artifacts in this treasure trove, pick a few more that can be used ……”
The crowd talked to each other, their expressions growing more and more excited, as if they saw the dawn of victory.
The smile in Lin Qiye’s eyes flickered away, then he said with a straight face, “I’m just raising a possibility, it’s too dangerous to do so.”
”Myles, don’t you know how to prophesy? Can you foretell what the chances of winning by doing this are?” Vishnu agent, Prakash, took the initiative and asked.
”This …… you all know, prophecy is also very mind consuming, and excessive prophecy can lead to hair loss, so usually I only make one prophecy a day, and today I’ve already predicted your arrival, so …… “Lin Qiye spoke with some difficulty.
”Mr. Myers, this matter concerns all of our lives, please make an exception!” Claude said sincerely.
”Yes, this prophecy concerns our next plans, prophesy once more.”
”Mr. Myers, please.”
”……”
Under the eager gazes of the agents, Lin Qiye frowned and tangled for a long time before he let out a long sigh and reluctantly said:
”Alright, then today, I’ll make an exception and prophesy once more.”
Lin Qiye pushed down his monocle and walked towards the center of the house, and the crowd immediately stepped back, preferring to squeeze together to make a space for him alone.
Lin Qiye sat down in place and pretentiously pulled out the crystal ball from his pocket that he had just picked up for nothing this afternoon and solemnly placed it on the ground.
His fingertips lifted lightly, and a gorgeous magic pattern bloomed with him at the center.
Lin Qiye sat in the center of the magic formation, his deep eyes gazing at the crystal ball, a mysterious halo of light flowing around him, dazzling people.
The agents huddled in the corner of the room, curiously watching the scene, not daring to utter a single breath.
Finally, the magical glow slowly receded, and Lin Qiye held the crystal ball and stood up in place.
His gaze swept over the crowd and
spoke with certainty:
”The chances of winning …… are seventy percent!”
