Chapter 265 The Dark Light Council's Trade Request
Once he had the idea, Modi immediately put it to the test.
He summoned the Frozen Throne, then took out the Broken Leg Chair and the Item Fusion Card. Under Su Youli's astonished gaze, he chose to fuse the two items.
The item fusion card suddenly turned into countless tiny stars, merging into the rare quality Broken Leg Chair. Then, the Broken Leg Chair transformed into a ball of light and flew towards the Frozen Throne.
With the two witnesses present, the two items were combined into one, leaving only the Frozen Throne item in its original position.
"Did you notice anything?" Su Youli examined the Frozen Throne. Although she had witnessed the entire fusion process, she knew nothing about the underlying principles.
"No, it seems the technology behind the Evolution Game is much more advanced than I imagined."
For Modi, the item fusion mechanism was also a black box; he only knew that he could do it, but he didn't know why he could do it.
Even though his spiritual sense remained fixed on the throne the entire time, he still couldn't see anything, only that the Frozen Throne had changed from what it had been before.
After a quick glance at the item panel, he immediately understood the changes.
Just as he expected, the Frozen Throne indeed inherited the characteristics of the Broken Leg Chair, and was further enhanced upon it.
Not only is the probability of leg breakage guaranteed at least 50%, but the upper limit has also been increased to 90%. In addition, there is an extra feature.
Anyone whose leg is broken must not recover from the broken leg within five seconds.
"This should be the boost from the epic quality. Five seconds is a pretty long time."
Modi chuckled and shook his head. Sure enough, anything related to rules is never simple.
"That's true, but if I'm not mistaken, this effect only activates by swinging a chair at someone. Are you really planning to grab the throne and smash someone with it?"
Su Youli imagined the scene, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl upwards slightly.
"What's wrong with using a chair to fight? Folding stools are great for brawls, aren't they?" Modi didn't care at all. Instead, he lifted the huge throne with one hand, looking somewhat eager to try.
With his wrist strength, a casual strike would likely trigger the maximum 90% probability of breaking an enemy's legs.
"Those weaker than me can't withstand one of my smashes, and those who can will be locked down for five seconds. Brilliant, brilliant!"
Mordi regretfully put away the throne; the room was too small for him to wield.
This is Su Youli's home, after all, it's practically his home. If it gets damaged, that would be terrible.
He'll have to stay here for a while.
Next, Modi took out the randomly obtained skill scroll and glanced at it.
"Learning scroll, radiance begins to appear, eh, it's still a technique of light, how coincidental."
He immediately chose to study, and the scroll turned into specks of light that floated into his body.
A massive flood of information rushed into his mind, which he absorbed entirely and organized into his own knowledge and insights.
"Radiance first appears... This is just one move in a set of palm techniques. With my skill, if I were to casually swing it, it would surely unleash a radiance of ten thousand feet, easily turning a radius of a hundred miles into a dead zone. I still have to use it with caution."
Modi looked at the faint green light in his hand, clenched his fist tightly, and gathered all the radiance into his hand, not letting it leak out at all.
"Radiance Emerges" is a rare skill. In the hands of ordinary Light Path transcendents, it can at most make up for the lack of melee combat skills, and it is far from being able to turn a hundred miles around into a dead zone.
After all, they are generally not good at physical combat, but only at psychological attacks.
But in Modi's hands, it's a completely different story. With his powerful strength, he can achieve extraordinary results, allowing it to break through the upper limit of rare quality.
"Tsk tsk, the initial radiance, and it's just a palm technique? Could there be other moves like the Golden Top Lantern and the Universal Radiance to follow?"
Pulling his attention away from the skills, he looked at Su Youli again, curious about what mission reward she had received.
Seeing his undisguised curious gaze, Su Youli smiled slightly and took out three props from her inventory.
The first item is a piece of ice, a flawless and transparent ice crystal. It is a rare item. Just its presence alone lowers the temperature in the room by tens of degrees, and frost forms on the surfaces of the furniture.
Modi glanced at it, and his gaze pierced through the outer shell of the ice crystal, seeing through its inner essence.
If he's right, this thing should be related to the Calamity of Deathly Silence.
"This is a deathly, eerie light. The ice crystals are just its outer shell; the remaining effects of the Deathly Calamity are sealed inside," Su Youli explained.
"I plan to refine it into the Ice Soul Cold Light Sword, so that I might be able to simulate the appearance of the Deathly Calamity."
"You can decide for yourself." Modi nodded and looked at the other props.
The second item is a prismatic object. According to Su Youli, it is an epic-quality item that amplifies her Ice Soul Cold Light and can act as a boosting medium.
"Yes, it suits your abilities very well." Modi nodded again.
Finally, there was a skill scroll called "Ice Soul Annihilation Divine Light."
...Why are all the rewards you get so good? Are the rewards based on individual ability?
He looked at his "Radiant Emergence," and it was perfect, fitting his newly acquired light-based skills.
But how do you explain that broken-legged chair? Could it be intended as material for the Frozen Throne?
Shaking his head to banish the thought from his mind, Modi decided to log onto the forum to peek at other Chosen Ones' posts and gather some intelligence along the way.
As soon as the panel opened, Su Youli's slightly helpless voice came from the side.
"You just got back from a desolate planet and you've already taken over my bed. Is that really okay?"
Modi thought about it and realized that it was indeed not a good idea. He got out of bed, went into the shower room, and prepared to take a shower, just to relive his ordinary life.
Just as he was about to close the door and take off his clothes, a slender hand suddenly rested on the door, stopping him from his next move.
"Hmm?" Mo Di raised an eyebrow and looked towards the door, where he saw Su Youli with a half-smile on her face and a meaningful look in her eyes.
After a moment's thought, he suddenly realized what was going on and opened the door to welcome Su Youli in.
A moment later, the shower room door closed tightly, and the sound of running water came from behind the door.
After fussing around for most of the day, Mo Di finally wrapped himself in a bathrobe and lay down on the bed, his dead fish eyes filled with contemplation of the ultimate mysteries of the universe.
Beside him, Su Youli, her face flushed, snuggled into his arms, a satisfied smile on her face.
"What was I going to do just now... Oh right, spy on the posts made by the chosen ones on the forum, and see if there's any information related to the Train to the Underworld."
He skillfully opened the forum and began searching for the latest posts related to the Yellow Springs Train.
"The latest post... found it, it was posted not long ago."
Modi's gaze hardened, and his dead fish eyes became bright and alert again.
Shocking! The train to the underworld has disappeared, and the truth behind it is...
The panel shows that the post was made a few hours ago. When the poster first made the post, Modi should still be in the shower room with important matters.
Modi had a sudden thought and clicked on the post to read the poster's introduction.
[I am a B-rank Chosen One. I recently received a notification from the Evolution Game that the next dungeon is "The Train to the Underworld," so I decided to gather information about it.]
But to my surprise, I bought the information from the donor, and then the game notified me that the dungeon had been changed, claiming that the Yellow Springs Train dungeon had been completely removed, causing me to lose a lot of game currency.
Later, a Brotherhood of the Forge friend who had been on the Train dungeon told me that a Chosen One, who appeared to have achieved godhood, boarded the train with him and reached the final stop, uncovering the secrets behind the train.
Presumably, this is why the Underworld Train instance disappeared. According to my friend, the train's final destination was actually...
After that, the poster stopped posting, seemingly deliberately leaving the readers hanging, which unsurprisingly drew a barrage of insults.
[Where's the next part, OP? It's not going to end abruptly like the rest, is it?]
[OP, please quickly add more details and write about 100 more game coins.]
[A chosen one who has successfully ascended to godhood? Perhaps the poster has been taking flight too many times and is hallucinating? No chosen one on the entire Xuanxing planet has ever truly ascended to godhood, so where would this chosen one who has been granted godhood come from?]
Modi continued scrolling down, but there was still no further information. He wondered if the poster had been persecuted.
He checked other posts and confirmed that no similar messages had been leaked.
"It seems that the three of them did not fully disclose the information; at most, it was the Brotherhood of the Crucible who leaked some information."
So, is there anyone in this world who understands the purpose of the evolution game? And the trials that will inevitably come sooner or later?
Modi's eyes were glazed over, his mind racing.
The Darklight Council is suspected to be an outside force and should be aware of this intelligence. In addition, other forces of similar status, such as the Forge Brotherhood and the Stigmata Cult, may also know about it.
"By the way, the country's official power, the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs, might also have some knowledge of it."
Speaking of the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs, Mo Di thought of Chang Jingtian, whom he had met once before. He wondered whether Chang Jingtian kept the witch's contract himself or handed it over to the Bureau of Extraordinary Affairs.
In any case, it was a minor matter, and Modi didn't care about the outcome of the chance he casually left behind.
"After Su Youli and I moved, I don't know if they continued to keep an eye on that house. I suppose they did, since there are still echoes of my voice in the room."
Looking at the delicate body in his arms, his eyes softened slightly. He was about to close the panel and relive the feeling of sleep.
You have received a friend request.
Modi paused for a moment, brought up his friends panel, and looked at the only remaining application in the otherwise empty application list.
[From: "Omen", a co-participant in the previous dungeon quest]
[Note: The Darklight Council would like to discuss a deal with you. Also, I would like to thank you for your help.]
"Omen? Oh, that's that young man from the Darklight Council. Why is the Darklight Council suddenly interested in making a deal with me?"
After a moment's thought, Mordred agreed, and his friend list officially welcomed its second friend.
A few seconds later, a notification sounded, and a message appeared in the chat box.
[Lord Styx, first of all, thank you for saving my life on the train. If it weren't for your help, I might have died on the train, like the other passengers... I'm also enclosing an epic item to express my gratitude.]
An epic-level item? It must have the support of the Paiguang Council behind it, otherwise how could that young man have produced it?
Modi accepted the attachment sent by the omen without hesitation. In the blink of an eye, a stone appeared in his hand, radiating a gentle light.
"Hmm?" Sensing the familiar aura, Modi hummed softly, his gaze lingering on the orange-yellow stone. "The Sun Stone... there seems to be some kind of frenzied substance inside."
The contents of the container gave him the feeling of a disaster, a test akin to a deathly silence.
"Could this be an echo of trials from other worlds collected by the Dark Light Council?"
If his guess is correct, then the Darklight Council has likely undergone more than one test... It seems that this force has a long history and great ambitions.
At the same time, the repressed power of the Thrones within him became active, and the three extra eyes opened again, conveying to him their desire for the Sun Stone.
"Want the echo from that stone? Heh, not a chance until I figure it out."
Modi snorted coldly and put the Sun Stone away with a backhand.
The notification sounded again; Xian Zhao had sent him another message.
Furthermore, on behalf of the Paiguang Council, I would like to request that we arrange a suitable time and place to meet and discuss some matters related to the previous instance....
...
Staring at the message sent in the name of the parliament, Mordy lowered his eyes and silently pondered what the parliament was planning.
Currently, the most likely explanation is that Parliament learned of his visit to the final stop of the Train to the Underworld through the oracle, and thus became interested in him.
"Could it be those angel statues?"
Guided by his spirituality, this conjecture popped into Modi's mind.
"Behind the angel statue lies the power of an angel, originating from a failed ascension deity of light. In that case, the council should be interested in the deity of light."
Sensing the dormant power of the Thrones, Mordy closed his extra eye, temporarily setting aside these distractions, and simply replied to the omen:
[Yes, the main city will be chosen. You can decide the specific location and time.]
The Chosen Ones' capital city exists in another dimension and can only be accessed through a panel. It is said to be absolutely safe, and no Chosen One can use force inside.
After a few seconds, the omen sent a message:
[Seven days from now, the Parliament awaits your arrival in room 1408 of the Mainland Hotel.]
"Mainland Hotel, 1408..." Mo Di muttered, closed the panel, and turned his head to see Su Youli open her eyes and stare at him without blinking.
"Hmm?" Her tone rose slightly, and she said softly, "I heard everything. So, what are you going to the hotel for?"
Modi composed himself, his expression remaining calm. "The people from the Darklight Council have a deal to discuss with me, which I suspect is related to the Terminal."
"Mmm~" Her tone softened, and she wrapped her arms around Modi's body, pressing closer. "Forget about all that, stay with me... at least all day."
"Don't worry, I'll always be by your side."
He patted her on the shoulder and closed his eyes.
The room fell silent, while on the other side of Xuanxing, in an underground base undetectable by any detector, members of the Dark Light Council prepared for a transaction.
"It's unbelievable that a chosen one has already achieved godhood when the evolution game has only just entered its mid-stage."
"We have to meet him no matter what. It would be even better if we could get the angel fragments in return."
"I hope so. I wonder if he has encountered that fallen god."
"Just do our job well. The next round of artificial gods is about to begin. This time, we must create our own Light Path Immortals."
"The candlelight of Itnity will aid us, and in the name of eternal day, we will finally achieve our long-cherished wish for a second dawn."
