Chapter 230 Thor roared in rage as Karl called him out to prepare for the fight. He couldn’t see the enemy yet, but he could smell them, and every Cerro knew the smell of their natural predators. “The scaly things are some sort of bipedal lizard.” Karl relayed as
Chapter 229 The next morning came entirely too early as Karl felt that he was finally making real progress on his spaces, but the promise of a unique challenge for the group, with the promise of even better rewards was enough to eliminate most of the concerns that his time

Chapter 227 The clerk gestured to the two boxes. “You just have to put on one piece of the equipment, and if you are compatible, it will bond with you. Now, keep in mind that once it does, you’ve bought it, no returns exchanges or refunds.” Karl turned to
Chapter 226 Karl let Lotus drag him to the armoury room, following the two Church Guards who were navigating them through the corridors of the Cathedral, avoiding the public areas which were packed with tourists during the middle of the day. With so many different Gods, there was a
Chapter 225 Within minutes, all the interviews were finished, and the reporters started doing their own bits, recording speeches over stock footage, and giving a highly censored version of events that wouldn’t scare the general public while still honouring the fallen soldiers and Elites of the many battlefields around the
Chapter 224 The rapid change left everyone a bit confused as to what they should be doing for the day, as their whole schedule had just been cancelled. The members who were on the media team were close to panic, though. They were supposed to start broadcasting in under
Chapter 223 Karl sat in stunned silence as the Black Dragon Goddess’ Avatar finished her story. He was still a bit shocked to be in the presence of the representatives of the Gods of War and Death, and then to be told that the hubris of the world’s most powerful
Chapter 222 The High Priests thanked the researchers, and then one of them handed out slips to the teams whose concoctions had been chosen for testing today, some sort of compensation chit, Karl assumed. “We really must be going. I have been receiving messages from the Inquisition that we
Chapter 221 Now that Thor had finished his enhancement, that left the two large vials on the cart, waiting for someone to remember about them in all the shock and confusion of a Lightning Cerro using [Circle of Protection]. Thor was basking in all the attention that he was
Chapter 220 The other groups conferred for a moment to see if they had something that might be relevant to a lightning magic user, but there wasn’t anything in the works at the moment. There were some already made, but they were the research division, they were already finished with
Chapter 219 The research assistants looked dreamy at the notion of being able to bond a monster to call upon in their time of need, like a guardian spirit that would make them the equivalent to an Elite, blessed by the Gods through the Divine Injection. But it was time
Chapter 218 The High Priests didn’t waste time once they had made up their mind, and they quickly escorted everyone out of the Cathedral and across the street, into what turned out to be one of the University’s research labs. Karl hadn’t realized that the two were located adjacent to
Chapter 217 High Priest John looked at Karl and Dana. “This is the second Holy Relic that the two of you have been involved in discovering in the past few months. I know the circumstances behind that, but I must say that the coincidence level after putting all of that
Chapter 216 The High Priest stared evenly at the tiny Nature Cleric. “So are you denying that you were riding a Bloodbath Spider through the woods, or that you were operating as a team in combat?” Lotus shook her head. “I do not. I just wanted to clarify that the
Chapter 215 The whole group, minus Sergeant Rita, was seated at the same table, with Brother Choi and two Church Guards, who Karl hadn’t seen before. “I take it that you two are the evening shift? My apologies for the trouble.” Karl greeted them. The guards smiled and nodded, but
Chapter 214 After a few seconds, Karl found that it was easier to have the new feature form in all three spaces evenly, as an imbalance in them was going to cause him to have to alternate. That proved to Karl that this was definitely something different than he had
Chapter 213 Brother Choi led Karl out of the questioning room and out toward the central courtyard of the Cathedral complex. “The rooms for guests face the central courtyard, where all the tourists visit. It’s become our way of keeping everyone in easy sight, and keeping them from getting lost.
Chapter 212 Thor was laughing in Karl’s mind that they thought just any human cleric would be compatible with his skill. Blue Dragons had lightning breath, of course their High Priestess would be compatible with Refreshing Lightning. Nature Priests might as well, since they were more attuned to animals than
Chapter 211 Two of the Inquisitors led Karl to a luxurious sitting room with comfortable looking leather chairs, and an older cleric woman in deep blue robes waiting for them. “Greetings, Karl. I am Lilith, a High Priestess of the Blue Dragon, the Dragon God of knowledge. Do you mind
