Chapter 298

“I'll go with you.”

Ganis immediately shook his head, of course, choosing not to resist.

His mind was clear, and he was well aware that the current situation was one of the enemy being stronger than him, with the enemy being fully aware of his true intentions. Engaging in conflict with the Divine Blade Knights here would be foolish.

Firstly, as the strongest knight order in the Kingdom of Dark Light, how strong are the Knights of the Divine Blade?

Honestly, without having truly fought them, Ganis couldn't say how strong they were, but he had heard things about them.

Every few years, the Kingdom of Dark Light holds a grand knight competition, where numerous powerful knight orders from all over the country compete fiercely to select the top ten most exceptional and elite knight orders.

The members of the "Ten Pillar Knight Orders" are undoubtedly the elite of the elite.

However, only the cream of the crop from each "Ten Pillar Knight Orders" can qualify to apply for the position of the Divine Blade Knight!

The minimum criteria for this selection is the level of "Potential Crown."

Furthermore, once one becomes a Divine Blade Knight, they will receive the grace of the Savior of Dark Light. The original Potential Crown extraordinary individuals will be forcibly elevated to the Crown level in an instant!

This is the reason why many aspire to become Divine Blade Knights!

In other words, the Knights of the Divine Blade, who defend the holy capital Annottales...all of their members, fifty-something in total, are powerful extraordinary individuals of at least Crown level!

If this terrifying force were to unleash itself, even an Apocalypse extraordinary individual would be unable to resist!

The Savior of Dark Light possesses a certain power, which is one of the few known abilities that can bypass the Crown Ceremony and directly elevate a Potential Crown extraordinary individual to the Crown stage.

And the most astonishing part is that there is no cost whatsoever.

Or perhaps, the true cost lies in the unseen, paid by the invisible.

However, this gift is only bestowed upon the Divine Blade Knights, while the high-ranking priests of the church do not receive this treatment.

Priests can only ascend to Crown through the Prophecy system, and the success rate of the Crown Ceremony is generally below fifty percent.

Then, they proceed diligently, spending a considerable amount of time constantly trial and error.

As for the specific reasons, perhaps only a few individuals, or even only the Savior of Dark Light, fully understand.

Ganis does not want to oppose the two transcendent beings at Crown level here, partly because they are too powerful.

Another reason is that he understands very well that if he gets into conflict with the knights of the Divine Blade, it may attract the large forces of the Knights of the Divine Blade.

That would be the end of everything.

He decided to surrender and wait for rescue.

Although there is no reason, Ganis always feels that he will be saved.

Next, all he has to do is wait for the Savior's rescue.

Don't panic.

“I'll go with you, I surrender." Ganis's tone was calm, completely unlike someone being arrested.

“Sinner, were you trying to resist just now?"

A Divine Blade knight remained silent for a moment, then slowly approached, the black armor on his body making a slight sound.

He stared at Ganis for a long time, and then their gaze suddenly locked.

Ganis had no expression on his face.

A hidden flame of intense anger within him made the Divine Blade knight momentarily stunned, and he instinctively took a half step back.

He raised the black knight sword in his hand and fiercely swung it at Ganis's arm.

“Sinner, be honest!”

Ganis was able to react, but chose not to resist.

The Blood of Darkness also flowed in his body, so even if his arm was severed, it was not irreparable.

In fact, since the Savior could even resurrect, having an arm severed, aside from causing pain, was not a substantial issue.

But what is pain?

He closed his eyes.

The black blade slid down and instantly descended just above Ganis's arm. The Divine Blade knight did not hesitate and genuinely wanted to sever his arm.

The sword stopped.

Ganis, who felt no pain, was slightly stunned. He opened his eyes and looked around.

Everyone in the training ground was looking in his direction. Their expressions varied, but their eyes gradually became vacant.

Even the two Crown-level Divine Blade knights in front of him had vacant expressions at this moment and were completely unable to act normally.

Ganis quickly realized the reason.

At some point.

A handsome man in his thirties, with gray temples, had already arrived here.

He held a black cane with both hands, facing forward with an imposing manner that demanded respect.

In Ganis's eyes, compared to the mysterious Mr. "Profligate," this man was almost a complete opposite.

The man's calmness and solemnity were reminiscent of those so-called high society figures, exuding a constant sense of nobility.

“Mr. Ganis.”

Bai Yan looked at Ganis seriously and said calmly, "Profligate, he probably won't come to Annottales again for now. I will take care of things here."

He had already decided to let "Profligate" handle matters concerning the Air Alliance and let "Keeper of Secrets" handle matters concerning the Kingdom of Dark Light, so as not to draw any connections between the two.Nêww chapters will be fully updated at wuxiahere.com

Ganis had complex emotions, pondered for a moment, and cautiously asked, "Are you also a member of the Babel Tower?"

"Yes."

Bai Yan nodded slightly and gave a simple answer, "My title is 'Keeper of Secrets,' and I am also a member of the Babel Tower. Profligate is an old friend of mine."

"Nice to meet you, Fist of Duel...I heard about your brave performance not long ago, and I am pleased."

Bai Yan pretended to have a look of "there's someone to carry on" and stifled a laugh inside.

Ganis felt that this man, compared to "Profligate," had a more "senior" feeling when he spoke.

So this is a senior member of the Babel Tower.

He looked at the bewildered two Divine Blade knights, nodded in praise, and said, "Indeed, you are members of the Divine Blade. Even if you are just ordinary members of the team, you possess the strength of a lower-ranked Crown."

But a lower-ranked Crown is still not enough.

Most of the powerful individuals at this stage are still from the "Material Plane."

Bai Yan successfully manipulated their minds by using Maryse's psychic power to launch a surprise attack from behind.

Of course, Maryse's current strength is also only at the level of a lower-ranked Crown.

If the enemy's strength is one level higher, if their soul Plane is higher, or if they are even slightly more alert, mind control would not take effect instantly.

For resisting psychic power, the Material Plane and the Formation Realm are clearly a threshold.

And the nearly invincible Glofield has obviously reached the level of the "Creation Realm" Plane. At present, Maryse's psychic power is completely inconsequential against him, like a mosquito bite.

Ganis didn't refute the praise but wanted to talk about business, "These two Divine Blade knights came for me, so the reason for their return is..."

Bai Yan gently shook his head and calmly interrupted him, pointing his finger at the helmet of one of the Divine Blade knights.

He began to use "memory reading" to understand the cause and effect.

Bai Yan's tone was serious, and there was a kind of awe-inspiring authority in his eyes.

"I see, you came to investigate the Witch Cult, and it's true that the majority of the sect are bad people... So, who made the report?"

The Divine Blade knight holding the black knight sword had a confused look in his eyes, immediately gave an answer without any hesitation.

"A person who goes by the name 'Ji'."

"Ji?"

Bai Yan furrowed his brow. Having played through the first playthrough, he had never heard this name before.

A black mist emerged in his other eye as Bai Yan began using the power of "Connection" to decipher the unintelligible characters and images.

He soon discovered something.

Although the "Blue Energy" was sufficient, the power of "Insightful Linking" was not enough to support his deciphering of the meaning behind all the symbolic images.

He could only understand a part of it.

"If the 'Assassin' mission is perfectly accomplished, then the connection with the 'Tower' will become even more hostile, or..."

"If the hidden role in the 'Assassin' mission is exposed, then the connection with the 'Tower' will become even closer, or..."

Assassin?

Bai Yan fell into deep thought.

The next new activity is called "Assassin"?

It was there during the first playthrough.

But this Assassin's mission is actually connected to the 'Tower'. Despite having done this mission multiple times during the first playthrough, he had never noticed it before.

When Bai Yan wanted to see further details, he realized that the decoding ability of "Insightful Linking" was not sufficient.

"If..."

Bai Yan temporarily halted his actions, shook his head, and relaxed his mind.

He let out a sigh.

If the power of "Connection" could become stronger, there would be a chance to see more content!

At that time, it would be possible to uncover the truth of the game "Babel Tower" and even discover who the creator of this game is.

Is the truth of "Babel Tower" important?

Perhaps it is significant, or perhaps it is meaningless, but Bai Yan couldn't suppress his desire to seek the truth.

He wanted to know whether he was just a dispensable pawn, a truly fated savior, or something else entirely.

Bai Yan once again recalled the scenes from thirteen years ago.

Who am I, really?

Next, Bai Yan looked again at the underlying rules of the operator list in the game "Babel Tower".

"Interesting, so that's how it is..."

He was startled to discover that even if an operator's loyalty level was not at 8, he could still see the detailed version of the character card from the "underlying rules"...

In fact, it was even more detailed than the publicly available version!

This is quite interesting.

Bai Yan saw this scene and felt a mix of emotions, but the ongoing pain made it impossible for him to continue.

So he disconnected from the Real Digital World and decided to only read a portion of it each day.

"Now, consider it a strategy guide..."

Divinity... Is it really in my own blood?

At this point, Bai Yan wasn't very surprised by this.

To be honest, he had a splitting headache at the moment, but he was still eager.

Bai Yan really wanted to take another look at the character cards of other Core Operators.

See those hidden "strategy tips"!

After contemplating the help they could provide, a pleased smile appeared on Bai Yan's face.

"Now that I've cheated big time, I don't believe I can still lose this game!"
