Chapter 300: Chapter 274: Embrace of the Four Kings_2

Even in Hell it was the same.

When the Giant Skeleton first opened Hell’s Gate, a burst of Frost flew towards him, merging with his Short Sword.

——Traces of Chaotic Heaven Gate could be found everywhere.

“Your Dharma Aspect has already opened, when you have the time, come and explore it; it is connected to the Dharma Realm and seems to extend to some peculiar place,” Miket Tikaxiwa communicated telepathically.

“Alright,” Shen Ye nodded.

That was “to receive Guidance from the Dharma Realm, to witness the true secrets of the Sect”; he must act cautiously.

After all, the whole affair was too bizarre.

He had no idea why the Sect would place its holy artifact in the Nightmare World.

It seemed the Sect was always trying to leave something behind.

Even he had obtained the Sect’s Skills through online correspondence courses.

Perhaps—

The white-haired old Taoist was so afraid of the Sect’s legacy dying out, that he resorted to such measures.

Shen Ye looked at Prince Norton in front of him.

First finish talking about the prince’s matters, then find a special time to cautiously face the Sect’s secrets.

“—You really are Saint Peiqi, then I didn’t crown you wrongly; can you lead us to kill that monster?” Prince Norton said excitedly.

“Don’t get excited, I can’t beat that monster either,” Shen Ye said.

He extended his hand.

Prince Norton understood and passed over a piece of Human Race Battle Armor.

“Take care of it; our Human Race only has four pieces of Battle Armor at this level, and three of them are in my father’s hands—I only have this one,” he said.

“I will,” Shen Ye responded.

He took the Battle Armor and saw that it was indeed Chainmail, of the Purple Grade (One in Ten Thousand).

Very good.

He had finally collected four pieces of Purple Grade Battle Armor!

“What do we do now?” Norton asked.

“I don’t know, I am a bit clueless. Right now we need to gather some intelligence to know what to do,” he said.

“Even with me joining you, rallying the Human Race army, we can’t beat that monster?”

“We can’t beat it,” Shen Ye said placidly.

“So we just let it rampage and slaughter all humans?” Norton said angrily.

“We need some time… I had some ideas, but now I feel I know too little about this world,” Shen Ye said.

“What do you want to know, I’ll tell you,” Norton said directly.

Shen Ye, however, closed his mouth.

That book in the royal treasury filled him with real fear, insoluble despair, and—

Hysterical madness.

There must be deeper secrets in this world.

Tian Luo.

This “Five Desires” world’s powerful being was known to surveil the entire realm.

Yet, it couldn’t find the Earth Mother.

And there was the Giant in Hell.

The weighty stone door.

The underground staircase that leads to unknown destinations.

Everything was telling him—

To be cautious.

But according to the Sect Leader’s Precious Tactic, today was suitable for parent and child.

Shen Ye looked at Norton.

This guy had brought him a Sect treasure that could be integrated with his Dharma Aspect, and he had even given him a piece of Purple Grade Human Race Battle Armor.

Was there any more potential to mine from him?

…That’s right.

He was the last Demigod of the Human Race.

“Norton, as a Demigod, do you have anything that makes you different from others?” Shen Ye asked.

“I can see through truth and falsehood,” Norton said.

“Be more specific.”

“No one can lie in front of me, no false thing can escape my eyes, and all hidden things must appear within my perception,” he replied.

“…You don’t seem very useful,” Shen Ye said.

“Shut up, this is because I haven’t activated my Divine Blood. I haven’t yet awoken the power of the Divine Spirit,” he retorted.

Shen Ye thought for a while, then spoke:

“Then go find a way to activate your Divine Blood—until you are able to join me in fighting that monster.”

“Indeed, I still need to activate the Divine Blood…” Norton said self-mockingly, “I’ve wasted too much time on various trivial matters and neglected the truly important ones.”

“You don’t have to overthink it, there’s still a chance now, just go and make the effort,” Shen Ye said.

Norton lowered his head, sighed, and walked towards the door.

He closed the door behind him.

The sound of his footsteps gradually faded away.

“He seems quite struck,” the Giant Skeleton commented.

“It can’t be helped, the world never gives young people the opportunity to grow. If they want such an opportunity, they mostly have to exchange it with their lives,” Shen Ye said.

“Will he bounce back?”

“He should,” Shen Ye replied.

Shen Ye arranged the four pieces of Chainmail together.

——These were authentic Human Race-specific Battle Armor, all Chainmail types, and all of Purple Grade (One in Ten Thousand).

There shouldn’t be a problem now.

“Merge,” Shen Ye activated.

He activated the title “Vampire Kid.”

Beams of light immediately flowed from the “title” above his head, enveloping the four pieces of Battle Armor.

The merging process began.

Shen Ye watched as the four pieces of Battle Armor completely shattered, turning into countless fragments that spun endlessly under the shine of the “title,” like fallen leaves swirling in the wind, or sentient butterflies.

Their speed grew faster and faster.

They were searching for the optimal way to reconstruct themselves.

Eventually.

They came together, recondensing into a single piece of Battle Armor.

However, this piece of Battle Armor was only the size of a fingertip, like a delicate model, gently falling into Shen Ye’s hand.

Shen Ye was puzzled.

Four pieces of Purple Grade Battle Armor.

In the end, they all merged into this tiny object the size of a thumb?

He carefully observed the Battle Armor in front of him.

A faint light quietly emerged, coalescing into lines of small text:

“Embrace of the Four Kings.”

“Shadow Battle Armor, Gold Rank (Legendary Level).”

“Description: The ethereal shadows of the four most battle-skilled kings in Human Race history are blessing you, wielding armor and weapons, they shield you from various attacks.”

“—Death is both the end of the melody and the beginning, and we drive it away for you, keeping it at bay from your sight.”
