Chapter 213: The Plan to Hunt the Descendants of the Ancient Gods
Chapter 213: The Plan to Hunt the Descendants of the Ancient Gods
"Garden Elves, Fire Imps, and Divine Beasts? What’s this all about?"
Qin Muye looked at the three troop building blueprints. These were part of Feiyun's fifth-ranked exchange for the Ascension Scroll of the Wisdom Tree. Of course, there were more than just these, but Qin Muye only chose these three troop buildings, leaving the rest to Hei Shou for handling.
Feiyun must have gone all out, advancing to the 6th stage to challenge the Elven God. While Qin Muye didn't know the exact details, the Elven God had since gone into seclusion.
"Is it really that difficult to get the blueprint for the Garden Elves?"
Qin Muye couldn't help but recall the recent commotion; the elves were almost blown to pieces.
"Well, I’ve got the stuff, so who cares about the details. But why does the Magic Continent have Divine Beasts? Isn’t this a Genie?" Looking at it, he had one locked up in his storage.
However, these two genies were likely not of the same species. Even though they shared the same name and similar appearances, they had fundamental differences.
The genie from Aladdin’s Lamp was a powerful creature created by Zeus, naturally endowed with the Wish Granting Spell.
In contrast, the Divine Beasts in this world were created by mages, existing as a hybrid between beastmen and puppets, and did not grant wishes.
The materials required were relatively simple: elemental spirits.
Qin Muye learned that the creation of these beings had been lost, not because the technique was forgotten, but because elemental spirits were no longer available. Although the blueprint described what elemental spirits were, he had never seen them.
As for the Fire Imps, they hadn’t gone extinct and could still be found in many places.
Qin Muye also understood the origin of the Garden Elves. No wonder he couldn’t find them; they were a divine creature under the Elven God.
"Having a 5th-stage creature is settled. I can optimize their bloodlines and further implement magical enhancements."
"Divine Beasts seem to be able to be further improved and integrated into the creatures."
Qin Muye planned to use the genie as a personal magical network intelligent assistant, similar to an AI, but not widely distributed. Instead, it would serve as a secondary system for the creatures, assisting them in daily battles and tasks.
It could also act as a signal node and future spell slot receiving server.
He did a simple calculation and found it quite useful.
The only difficulty was how to achieve symbiosis. For one, there were no elemental spirits, making the transformation challenging. He wasn’t planning to separate them into two buildings but rather to merge them into one.
"Without elemental spirits, it’s manageable. Once I build the Wish Granting Altar, I can recruit Divine Beasts."
"However, the Garden Luck of the Garden Elves is harder to manage, as it comes from their divine nature."
Qin Muye understood that divine nature was similar to the special bloodline of deities. The Garden Elves inherited the divine nature of the Elven God, which granted them the ability of good luck.
But his creatures lacked this divine nature, so their Garden Luck was stuck at 1 and couldn’t be improved.
Divine nature, though, was something Qin Muye could manage to create from his own body, such as the blessing ability from his human bloodline, which was a manifestation of divine nature.
In other words, if Qin Muye wanted to increase the luck of his creatures, he would need genuine Garden Elves for experimentation.
After memorizing the content of the three troop building blueprints, he learned them and had Hei Shou arrange the construction. Once they were built, he would recruit some for experimentation.
Otherwise, just looking at the data on paper wouldn’t help; it would be mere speculation. Although the blueprints gave him many ideas, without actual data, these ideas would remain theoretical and need practical refinement.
"There’s still some time before reaching the 5th stage, so I’ll focus on perfecting the Golem-Class Mechs first. With such a powerful force, I’ll have enough firepower to deal with large enemies like the Wisdom Tree, rather than just relying on area-of-effect attacks."
Area-of-effect attacks were indeed satisfying, but having multiple attack and defense options would be even better, and Qin Muye certainly wouldn’t mind that.
If not for the current situation, he would have taken the extradimensional floating city to explore the Horror Universe and plunder the technology of other alien civilizations.
After all, alien civilizations wouldn’t just disappear, but if he missed out on the other descendants of the Mother of Races, he would lose out on golden treasure chests.
This time, although he didn’t get a random dungeon scroll, the Ascension Scroll of the Wisdom Tree still made him a substantial profit.
"Master, the latest intelligence suggests that one of the Mother of Races' descendants might be the Moonstone Elf Queen," Black Hand transmitted a file to Qin Muye through the magical network.
"Moonstone Elf Queen. This thing has been dead for who knows how many years, probably even her ashes are gone."
Qin Muye flipped through the file and quickly recalled the Elf Queen, who was at least a figure from tens of thousands of years ago.
During this time, the Elf Queen had changed many times, and the elf race had experienced numerous ups and downs, so many documents had been lost.
"Is it possible she’s in a state of suspended animation? The Wisdom Tree has lived for so long, and as a descendant of the Mother of Races, she couldn’t possibly have such a short lifespan." Black Hand simply explained and then brought up another record, which was about finding the burial site of the Moonstone Elf Queen.
This wasn’t a big secret; many documents had recorded that the Moonstone Elf Queen was the first elf and had led the elves to their current status.
Similarly, there was the Gold King of the dwarves.
"That’s not without reason. These long-lived beings might really be able to live that long, but if she’s in a state of suspended animation, it’s unlikely she’s in her burial site."
Qin Muye thought for a moment. After all, who would want to be buried underground for so long? Most people wouldn’t be able to endure it.
"If that’s the case, could the ancestors of other races also be descendants of the Mother of Races?"
A flash of inspiration came to him. If the Moonstone Elf Queen could be, why couldn’t the Gold King?
If these people were still alive, they might hold positions like Grand Elders in their races, living in seclusion but controlling everything from behind the scenes, wielding great power.
"In that case, the death of the Wisdom Tree might have already alarmed them." Qin Muye couldn’t help but draw a sharp breath. If they were really pushed to the limit, a batch of 7th-stage alien experts might appear.
"We’re doomed."
Qin Muye maintained a pessimistic attitude, but after careful consideration, he decided that in this unfortunate situation, he might as well kill some of the Mother of Races' descendants and get some golden treasure chests, at least to avoid a total loss.
"Master, should we take action?" Black Hand asked again through the magical network.
"Definitely. In the current situation, every kill is a profit. First, we’ll dig up the Moonstone Elf Queen’s grave. If she’s there, it will be easy. If not, we’ll have to wipe out the elf race."
Qin Muye was pragmatic. Since the situation was already hopeless, he would naturally choose to run away.
"Yes, Master, I’ll arrange it immediately." Black Hand understood Qin Muye’s intentions. If the Moonstone Queen were still alive, she wouldn’t likely be buried in her grave.
Living in seclusion after a fake death was unrealistic. It was more likely that she had re-integrated into the elf race, holding a high position and wielding power, still influencing the elf race. Otherwise, the failure of the Ancient God vaccine and the Ancient God special medicine wouldn’t have been so drastic.
"Act quickly, accurately, and ruthlessly. We must not let other races discover this. The situation with the Wisdom Tree has probably already escalated, but the lack of action suggests that other descendants of the Ancient Gods are still observing. Once they break through to the 7th stage, we won’t have an advantage."
Qin Muye warned. He could handle 6th-stage beings, but 7th-stage ones were beyond his capabilities. He ultimately abandoned the idea of seeking help because he couldn’t see the current situation clearly. The Mother of Races was becoming increasingly terrifying, and a single misstep could result in even an 8th-stage expert falling here.
The Mother of Races was definitely a 9th-stage+ ancient god, not a simple ordinary deity. If it were an ordinary deity, it wouldn’t have caused such a situation.
"If possible, we could capture a deity as an experimental subject." Qin Muye thought, as he had never studied a racial deity before. This was a perfect opportunity to take advantage of the situation, especially with the Elf God, who had been forced into seclusion.
