Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

"You have to be careful in the future. That guy Weir obviously holds a grudge against you." The white-robed man whispered. "Let me introduce myself. I'm Ankama, the current King of Daniela's Holy Lake, one of the two kings. I was ordered to come and welcome both of you. The two Lords of your Three Departments are also at the Ancestral God Pillar."

Ankama surveyed the surroundings.

"Aren't you going to invite me to have a seat? You don't have to introduce yourselves. I've read information about both of you beforehand."

"Come up." Although Garen was displeased at the four Cthulhus, he steadied himself and returned to the carriage.

No matter what, the other party was here to help him. It would be even better for him to take advantage. When the two sides were engaged in battle and underestimated his power, he could secretly obtain Cthulhu's Origin. There was a high possibility he could obtain the adapter with the Winged-God arm.

The three of them returned to the carriage. The yellow-eyed black hawks were only mildly frightened under the protection of the tactic formation. They did not suffer any damage and continued flying forward under Garen's control.

As the three of them sat at the long table in the carriage, the girl guard served the three men some snacks and tea.

"This is our Kovitan's green tea snack. Some red fern roots were added. It tastes pretty good. You can have a try." Garen pointed.

Ankama took a snack but didn't eat. He only held it in his hand.

"Lord Garen, I heard that you've destroyed multiple Cthulhuism Society squads and temporary strongholds along your journey here? Is that true?"

"It is." Garen nodded.

"I was thinking why would the Cthulhuism Society send out such an elaborate squad. It was actually you that messed up their plans." Ankama nodded showing that he understood. He actually knew about it beforehand but wanted to verify.

"Most of the men sent by the Cthulhuism Society to conquer the Glittering Pond were annihilated by you. I want to first express my sincere gratitude." He sincerely bowed towards Garen and Wukang.

"I want to thank both of you for clearly standing on the side of the royal family."

"What do you even mean? I, Garen of the Black Swamp Palace am still one of the members of the Three Departments, serving the elders of the Royal Alliance. To protect the interests of the royal family is protecting our own interest." Garen answered with a sense of justice.

Ankama instantly felt ashamed. Daniela did not do anything during the assassination of the king of Kovitan. They were also bystanders when the monsters from the nest attacked the kingdom. After Garen's words, he instantly felt a sense of remorse.

The young King of Holy Lake was obviously not yet warped by governmental politics. He still had basic moral standards.

Royal Alliance? The Three Departments? Ever since so many spies were found out in Kovitan, everyone in the Royal Alliance had only cared about their own safety. The Three Departments were divided although they looked like one. Many secret dealings were going on inside. Every one of them was thinking of themselves. No one cared about the big picture.

"I express remorse on behalf of my brother's flawed decision making." The King of Holy Lake shook his head. The brother that he mentioned was naturally the King of Daniela. They did not back Kovitan up during that time. Now when they needed help, the elites from Kovitan still righteousness traveled thousands of miles to come here. A friendship like that...

"Daniela is currently lacking resources. Since both of you rushed over to support our royal family, we will not mistreat you. I wonder have both of you heard of the Seed of the Ancestral God?"

Garen and Wukang looked at each other. They knew that the show was about the begin.

"Of course. It's one of the two most precious resources in Daniela." Garen nodded and replied.

"That's good. The Seed of the Ancestral God is a rare resource that cannot be kept by any known method. It has to be consumed within an hour or it will completely lose all effects. Hence…"

Ankama paused.

"Hence, many totem users come to Daniela every year to obtain the Seed of the Ancestral God to raise the innate talent of themselves or their descendants."

"Does this upgrade work for everyone?" Wukang furrowed his brows and asked.

"Of course not. It can work for any totem below Spiritualization level. Also, it can only work once per lifetime for everyone. One seed represents a one-time effect." Ankama answered.

"Since it can't be kept, wouldn't it have no effect on us?" Wukang continued. "If it can be kept there still might be some value."

"Although you can put in this way, however for totem users above Spiritualization level, the Seed of Ancestral God can increase the maximum capacity of totem power," Ankama added. "Totem power determines the explosiveness of a totem user, the number of totems he can control, the strength of totem light and others. Even the usage of tactics is limited by totem power. No totem user wouldn't want their strongest totem as their core totem. Unfortunately, he has to provide sufficient power. If not, once it is summoned, the user would faint due to his energy being sucked dry. What would be the point then? Hence totem power is the foundation of everything."

After hearing those words, even Garen was a little interested.

His totem power was his largest shortfall. This was the reason why he did not develop other third form totems outside of the Nine-Headed Hydra. The reason was his totem power was absolutely insufficient.

He never thought the Seed of the Ancestral God had an effect like this.

Seeing that both of them had interested expressions on their face, Ankama instantly let out a smile.

"The time of the year for the Ancestral God Pillar's seed dispersal has arrived. Both of you can gather the Seeds of the Ancestral God at our designated locations. No matter whether both you are successful, we will provide two more seeds for both of you as a reward for your help. Using two seeds at the same time will double the effect. You must know that one person can only use the effects of the Seeds of the Ancestral God once in his lifetime.

"Deal." Wukang cheerfully agreed. Since Lord Garen had an unspeakable motive, and they were already here, why not obtain more benefits first.

Garen also nodded.

"Your nation is generous indeed."

"How so? Compared to your friendships, this is nothing." Ankama was obviously an honest man. He let out an expression of not taking advantage of his friends as he spoke.

In a certain canyon in Daniela

In the sea of black-green forest, the black canyon was like a big crack in the ground. Its ugliness clearly drew the attention of all living things.

The crack in the ground stretched across thousands of miles. In the field of vision, it was extremely deep, as if it was separating the earth into two.

The trees on both sides were tall and healthy. The scene was like a green carpet with tall ancient trees sewn into it. They were like tall pillars that left huge shadows on the ground.

Many huge colorful butterflies were surrounding the ancient trees.

Their wingspan was about 10 meters wide. From afar, they can be seen as cute. But from a close distance, they looked like small, flying houses. Their huge, flesh-like wings continuously created violent winds.

Among the butterflies, some were white, some were pink, some were light yellow, but most of them were translucent, with crystal-like translucent wings.

On the clear sky, huge birds continuously swooped down and glided through the forest.

On the back of most of the birds were human figures. They came from all directions as they flew towards the biggest tree in the forest.

On an intersection between the sea of trees and the crack, a green river flowed down from the cliff of the crack. It formed a giant white waterfall. As large amounts of white water splashed around, a faint rainbow was formed under the sunlight.

Many huge, transparent soap bubbles floated around in between the giant trees. Each of these soap bubbles was two or three meters large, with human figures standing or sitting within them.

Some of them were men and some of them were women. As they were wrapped in the soap bubble, they seemed slow but in fact, they were traveling at an incredible speed through the forest. It was like a normal form of transportation.

On an empty plain beside the waterfall, a man and a woman in green vine armor stood there.

Both of them impatiently looked at the sky above, as if they were expecting something.

"Why are we the ones to welcome foreign ambassadors? Can't it be other people?!" the young man complained in a tone of displeasure. The vine armor on his body was a short-sleeved shirt and short pants, revealing his strong arms and thigh. He obviously didn't wear undergarments that he should have worn.

"This is our father, the king's orders. If you dare to disobey, I guarantee he will throw you into that giant, tragic hole for more than two weeks." The young girl answered impatiently.

"To hell with it. I've already waited for a full three hours. I don't give a damn about the tragic hole! No, I have to go and accompany my Collier!" The young man turned and wanted to leave.

Shuaaa!

A giant, sticky grey tongue gave him a full-body lick.

A three-meter tall giant grey snail crouched behind him. He protruded a strange tongue from his mouth and licked the man like a puppy. The man was dripping wet from his air. After licking the front it licked the back. After thoroughly licking his whole body, it crawled away in satisfaction.

The man was stunned before the snail. His neat demeanor was totally gone.

The snail slowly crawled away, leaving the speechless man in a mess.

The girl on the side clenched her mouth and kept laughing.

"Argh!! My image!! My hair!! The hairstyle that I've just combed this morning!!" The guy shouted. "I'm going to kill you!! Don't stop me! Don't stop me, Christine!" He leaped ferociously towards the snail.

"Thousand apologies my dear brother. I am 8.152 meters away from your position. If you can defeat the snails here, I won't stop you from doing so." The girl couldn't stop herself from laughing as she answered.

The young man's legs were running, but he was stuck in his position.

After complaining for about half a day, he looked at giant snails that were everywhere. Finally, he helplessly sat on a large white stone.

"Alright. That is why mutated creatures are scary! Someone heard that a snail is on par with a third form totem user? If someone told me this before, I would have definitely sent the crazy man to a mental hospital."

Suddenly a group of large black hawks appeared in the sky. The black hawks were pulling a large black carriage.

"They're here!" The two youths stood up in excitement. Especially the young man. Because of his body's nature, he was licked by many snails. Finally, the time for him to escape his agony has arrived.
