Chapter 964 Holy City? Mine?

Holy City?

Fang Wuwei paused for a moment, his eyes darting around, and then he immediately noticed that the most magnificent and grand building in the city was a church, and two armored figures stood prominently next to the church.

Completely platinum, wielding a long weapon, with a towering figure and covered in fine armor, these two suits of armor exuded a terrifying, suffocating pressure; they were the two platinum-plated elite weapons he had left behind.

At this moment, Fang Wuwei belatedly realized that he was currently in Thorin's stronghold, which was also the headquarters of the Church of Thunder in the Inner World.

However, it seems now that it should be called the Holy City...

Fang Wuwei subconsciously began to look around the holy city. Compared to modern cities, this city was not very large. From his current perspective, he could see the end of it at a glance. However, there was such a magnificent church standing inside. The surrounding houses were densely packed together, obviously housing a lot of people. Moreover, it seemed that they were all his believers.

This is huge? How long has it been? It's only been a little over a month and it's already developed like this?

"Lord Thor!"

The shouts of the believers below grew louder and more fervent, waking up many more who were fast asleep. They rubbed their eyes and peeked out of their houses to see what was happening. After seeing the giant head in the sky, they were stunned for less than half a second before immediately becoming one of those who knelt on the ground and shouted.

"Lord Thor..."

Amidst countless shouts, Fang Wuwei heard a familiar call. Looking closely, he saw Thorin Josk, his Pope in the Otherworld, emerging from a small house next to the church, accompanied by her parents. As she looked at the gigolo in the sky, her face also showed an uncontrollable joy. She gently knelt on the ground, offering her devout faith to him.

"Ha, Lord Thor..."

But beside Thorin was an unexpected person, Fang Wuwei.

His familiar face held an unfamiliar arrogance and swagger, along with a faint hint of satisfaction deep in his eyes. He stood behind Thorin, hands behind his back, looking at Thor's face in the sky, a cryptic smile playing on his lips.

His words were clearly disrespectful, and it was obvious that he was not a follower of Fang Wuwei. Such words immediately aroused the dissatisfaction of Thorin, but before she could say anything, Fang Wuwei had already taken action.

Fang Wuwei, who originally didn't plan to descend to the mortal realm and just wanted to take a look, changed his mind. He conjured a temporary body in front of Thorin and the others, using surging thunderclouds and leaping lightning as a base, and only outlined a simple humanoid shape. It was a large, constantly rolling humanoid thundercloud that occasionally burst out with dazzling lightning, and it looked quite intimidating.

"Long time no see, Dark Flame Envoy."

"What brings you here, Lord Thor?"

The Dark Flame Envoy made a few joking remarks, but looking at Fang Wuwei's appearance, he felt genuinely happy.

The stronger Fang Wuwei becomes, the more secure the world will be. Judging from the memories transmitted from the fragments of the Dark Flame Dragon outside, Fang Wuwei has truly undergone earth-shattering changes since their last meeting.

Fang Wuwei nodded to the Dark Flame Envoy, then turned to look at Thorin beside him.

Sensing Fang Wuwei's gaze, the three members of the Thorin family tensed up instantly, lowered their heads even further, and even slowed their breathing. But at the same time, the joy that welled up from the bottom of their hearts almost overflowed their chests.

“It’s only been a short time since we last parted, and you’ve already accomplished so much. You’ve done very well, Thorin.”

Fang Wuwei's voice came from the thunderclouds, revealing little emotion, yet it inexplicably made Thorin feel at ease.

"Yes......"

Being praised by Fang Wuwei was an unparalleled honor for Thorin, a believer. He was so excited that he trembled all over and his voice became shaky.

"It is my honor to serve the esteemed Lord Thor..."

"Ah."

Fang Wuwei simply responded softly, and the arm formed from the thundercloud slowly rose, reaching towards the kneeling Thorin, and landed on her head.

A cold sensation and an indescribable, tingling feeling, as if an electric current was coursing through her head, came from above. Thorin was stunned for a moment when she felt the strange touch and coldness coming from above. Before she could react to what this meant, the next moment, a tyrannical divine power surged into Thorin's body like a flood.

The divine power belonging to the supreme deity was too strong and too domineering for mortals, but after it surged into Thorin's body, it became strangely gentle and began to change its own nature on its own, spreading continuously... Rather than Thorin beginning to accept this divine power, it would be more accurate to say that this divine power began to actively accept Thorin's frail human body.

When foreign divine power invades the magic circuits within her body, the process is bound to be painful. Thorin's magic, which originally flowed freely within her body, was incompatible with Fang Wuwei's divine power for a moment. They became congested in her magic circuits, and in an instant, excruciating pain from the inside out suddenly erupted from every corner of Thorin's body, causing her to collapse to the ground, clutching her chest and gasping for breath.

The pain was so intense that her internal organs groaned and every nerve screamed, but strangely, Thorin's mind was clearer than ever before. It was precisely because of this clarity that she could feel the flow of magic within her body and the intense pain emanating from every inch of her skin with perfect clarity.

"The divine power is clashing with the magical power within you, which may cause you short-term pain..."

Only then did Fang Wuwei's calm voice slowly reach Thorin's ears.

"But this won't last long. This is my blessing, a blessing that gives you strength, and also a reward for your dedication to me..."

Thorin's magical circuits were already mature and flowing naturally. Naturally, they clashed with the fearless divine power above. The two forces blocked each other in her circuits, but soon Thorin's magic crumbled and was tainted by the divine power.

This will bring about a qualitative change to Thorin's power. With a trace of divine power within her, her combat strength will be completely transformed and will be incomparable to what it was before.

This was the divine power dispersion blessing that Fang Wuwei had been learning for so long, but it deviated slightly from the initial plan. The first test subject wasn't Ling Zhixia, but Thorin...

Fortunately, such intense pain only affects targets with magical powers. If it were a mortal, this divine power would likely help them open up their magical circuits. Even if they possess magical powers, if their powers are too weak, they would be too poor to effectively block the divine power, and thus wouldn't be in such pain.

Thorin's reaction precisely demonstrates that her magic is quite impressive.

Upon hearing Fang Wuwei say this, Sorin immediately realized that the pain was Fang Wuwei's reward. Once this thought came to her mind, she actually felt that the tearing pain was not so unbearable. She wanted to say something to thank him, but she was in so much pain that she couldn't even squeeze out a complete syllable.

Then, at Fang Wuwei's instruction, her parents hurriedly stepped forward to lift their limp daughter up, thanking Fang Wuwei in fear as they helped Solin retreat hastily.

Only when no one was around did Fang Wuwei turn his head to look at the Dark Flame Envoy, who had retreated to the side at some point and stood with his arms crossed for a long time.

"How will you be here?"

"You've made such a big fuss, it's obvious to everyone, so why can't I be there?"

The Dark Flame Envoy smiled at Fang Wuwei, then turned slightly to the side and made a gesture, indicating that Fang Wuwei could talk to him as they walked.

"You came for the Holy City, and so did we, the Far East Society. In fact, the reason your Holy City is so vibrant is inseparable from our efforts. You should thank us."

With that, the Dark Flame Envoy stopped waiting and walked outside on his own. Seeing this, Fang Wuwei also remained silent for a moment before his body, formed from thunderclouds, gradually solidified into a real physical body and followed the Dark Flame Envoy's footsteps.
