Chapter 518: I, Yecheng, One of the Six Gods, Hurry Up and Pay Up!
"Magic doesn't work on you? Wait, does that mean you're...?"
Before Squirrel could finish his sentence, Yecheng, who was floating in the air, had already turned and grabbed Negon, running off without giving him a chance to continue.
Yalbert and Demigod were about to give chase, but Bone King reached out and stopped them.
"Lord Anz, why..."
Yalbert's question was cut short as Squirrel suddenly scanned the surroundings and said, "Satiya, you're probably watching from nearby, right? Hurry up and come out to see me."
Almost immediately after Squirrel's words, a pool of blood suddenly appeared on the ground in front of them, and Satiya's figure, holding up her skirt, soon appeared before them.
"I'm truly sorry, Lord Anz. Just now, Lord Yecheng didn't allow me to intervene, saying that my acting was too poor and might affect his plans, so..."
Satiya's words left Aurela and Mare puzzled. They didn't understand how this matter was related to Lord Yecheng.
However, the clever Demigod and Yalbert already had a clear understanding of the situation.
They had been wondering how the humans, whom they considered inferior, had suddenly become so powerful, able to suppress them and the other Guardians. It turned out that the person was none other than Lord Yecheng.
If the opponent was the Supreme Sovereign, it was no surprise that they had lost.
After all, even among the forty-two Supreme Sovereigns, Lord Yecheng's strength was at the top tier.
"That human from earlier is probably Lord Yecheng in disguise, with the ability to completely immune magic. I only know of one person with this unique skill.
Due to this singular ability, he has another name in YGGDRASIL, known as the 'Magic Caster Slayer'.
Because of his complete magic immunity, magic casters are like toys before him, and he is the nightmare of all magic casters."
Since Mare and Aurela didn't understand the reason, Squirrel, acting like an old father figure, explained, "Then why did Lord Yecheng go to such lengths to do all this? And why did he put on a show to save that human?"
With her curiosity, Aurela looked at Squirrel and asked the question on her mind.
But this question stumped Squirrel. Lord Yecheng hadn't consulted him about his previous actions, so how could he know what that guy was planning!
"According to Lord Yecheng, those people from earlier seemed to be from the 'Radiant Canon'.
Lord Yecheng seems to be particularly concerned about the Sliana Theocracy, where the 'Radiant Canon' is located, and he even thinks they might pose a threat to us.
As for why Lord Yecheng is doing all this, he did mention it earlier, but I can't remember too much..."
Satiya's words caused Yalbert's veins to pop out in frustration, thinking that Satiya, as a Guardian, was being too negligent.
It should have been an honor to be able to understand the plans of the Supreme Sovereign, but this guy, Satiya, had no idea what was going on in his head, and he even forgot such important information!
"If that Sliana Theocracy is worthy of Lord Yecheng's attention, then I can guess what Lord Yecheng is trying to do.
Lord Yecheng, who went to great lengths to demonstrate his power and save that human, probably wants to gain the human's trust and then plant a pawn within the Sliana Theocracy, right?"
"I'm sure Lord Anz, with his wisdom, has also realized this, which is why he stopped us at the crucial moment."
Demiurge's words also caused the Guardians present to look at Bone King with adoration.
Anz: (_;??? I have no idea what you're talking about. I only stopped you because I recognized the possibility that they might be from Yecheng. As they are our comrades, there's no reason to attack them.
"Demiurge, it seems they haven't realized Yecheng's intentions yet. I'll allow you to share your speculation with them."
"Yes, Lord Anz. In my humble opinion, Lord Yecheng probably intends to make this human named Negan his puppet, to gather intelligence on the Sliana Theocracy for us.
According to what Satiya just said, this human named Negan, although not very powerful, seems to be the captain of the Radiant Canon. This means he has the opportunity to access the upper echelons of the Theocracy."
"But Demiurge, there's one thing I don't understand. If they only need a puppet, why not simply use enslavement or control spells on this human?
It would not only be simpler but also prevent the possibility of betrayal." Cosecetes, who had been silent, now voiced his own question, one that Bone King also fervently agreed with in his heart.
"Using enslavement or control spells is certainly an option, but it carries the risk of exposure.
As Lord Yecheng mentioned earlier, the Sliana Theocracy even possesses World-Class Artifacts. We know too little about this powerful and mysterious force. Who can guarantee that they don't have means to detect mental control within their ranks?
Moreover, the ultimate method to control hearts is never through magic or artifacts but by exploiting the desires within..."
In another location, Negan, who had been abducted by Yecheng into a small grove, was now witnessing a drastically transformed Yecheng, and he knelt on the ground, his face filled with reverence.
The reason for his awe was that Yecheng's appearance had changed significantly from before, and the face now before Negan was identical to one of the "Six Great Gods" in the Theocracy's divine statues!
"I won't waste words. I believe when you see my face, you'll understand my identity.
The century-long aftershock has returned, and this time, a dark force powerful enough to destroy this world has descended.
Unlike before, this dark force is too powerful, forcing me to awaken from my slumber.
Keep my identity a secret from everyone, including the Theocracy's upper echelons. I suspect that after so many years, corruption has seeped into the Theocracy, and I need the help of a truly devout believer."
Yecheng: That's right, I'm your ancestor. Pay up!
Negan didn't doubt Yecheng's words, as the holy light of the "God of Light" surrounding Yecheng couldn't be faked.
The immense power displayed during the recent battle with the undead was beyond his imagination and comprehension.
Even the Solo Ensemble of the Black Canon would be mere cannon fodder in such a fight.
And now, the being before Negan was one of the "Six Great Gods" worshipped by the Theocracy.
How could a god fall? It seemed the Six Great Gods had merely been in slumber, and now the great "God of Light" needed a trustworthy and devout believer. This could only mean good fortune for Negan!
