Irene noticed that Vincent had suddenly become silent. She could not help but ask anxiously, “Vincent, quickly answer me. My family, the other members of the Spirit Race, have they gone into hiding in other worlds?”
Tears began to roll down her face.
This was because she could already guess the fate of her clansmen based on Vincent’s reaction.
Avril turned around and hugged Irene’s shoulders gently. She said with a conflicted expression, “Actually, we’ve traveled through many worlds, but we’ve never seen a second spirit. You might be the only one left in this world!”
After hearing the exact answer, Irene finally could not hold it in anymore. She turned around and hugged Avril. She started to cry loudly.
Vincent could not help but think of the humans who were about to face Gajero. He soon became anxious. He said to Avril, “When her mood is better, bring her to the altar to explore. I’ll go check on the others!”
Avril nodded gently at Vincent, indicating for him to go back to work.
Vincent turned around and walked in front of Kurt. He said, “Take me to find Lilis and Janos!”
Kurt immediately turned sideways and led Vincent to the distant streets.
Vincent had previously told them to choose houses that are safe for them to live in temporarily. Therefore, they did not choose the neighboring houses. Instead, they had scattered around the city. This way, they could minimize the danger and monitor the movements in the city in the meantime.
However, the demons had found the place where Kurt and the others were hiding.
Vincent followed Kurt around the streets and alleys. They finally arrived at the door of a small house.
The small house looked like a blacksmith’s shop based on its decorations. Vincent could instantly guess who was inside.
Vincent knocked on the door and said, “Janos, things have changed! Get ready to leave at any time!”
The door did not open. However, Vincent could hear Janos’s voice saying, “It’s Sir Vincent, come in quickly!”
Vincent raised his hand and pushed the door open. He was shocked by the scene in front of him.
The house was dilapidated and its furniture had decayed. Its ground was also covered in dust. However, there was still equipment such as a blacksmith’s table, a smelting furnace, a forging table, and so on available in the house. Janos was currently keeping busy in front of a tall machine.
Vincent asked in disbelief, “What are you doing?”
Janos turned to look at Vincent and said with a smile, “I’m using the ancient Zerg materials you gave me to forge equipment!”
Vincent pursed his lips in surprise and asked in disbelief, “We’ve just arrived here, and the danger hasn’t even been resolved yet, and you’re already preparing to forge?”
Janos shook his head and said with a serious expression, “I’m not preparing to forge. I’m actually almost done! Now that all the materials have been poured into the mold, they’ll be ready very soon. Soon I’ll be able to activate the special ability of this armor. Just thinking about it makes me excited!”
Vincent could not help but take a deep breath. He sighed in his heart as he had underestimated this gnome craftsman. He had originally thought that forging equipment was extremely time-consuming. Moreover, there should not be any external factors disturbing the process of forging.
He did not expect Janos to forge equipment in such a short period of time especially when there was danger lurking in the outside world!
After some careful consideration, Vincent said to Janos, “In regard to forging, you have to give me some pointers when you are free!”
Janos asked with a face full of joy, “Why, is Sir Vincent very interested in the craftsman profession?”
Vincent nodded and said honestly, “I’m very interested if I can forge equipment as fast as you!”
Janos said seriously, “That’s not a problem! Every top-tier craftsman would not spend time on forging equipment. I believe that with Sir Vincent’s intelligence, he will be able to quickly grasp the skills of a craftsman and rise to the level of a top-tier craftsman!”
Vincent could not help but laugh dryly as he said, “I can’t believe that you are so confident in me. Then when we are settled down, I hope that you will not be stingy with your teachings!”
Janos nodded. Just as he was about to speak, the huge machine beside him suddenly emitted a series of beeps.
“Just in time. The forging of the armor has been completed. Sir Vincent, come forward to remove the armor with your own hands!” said Janos excitedly.
Vincent walked forward curiously when he heard this. Under Janos’s guidance, he pressed the stop button on the machine and removed the mold. He saw a dark golden soft armor in front of him.
Vincent recalled the ugly appearance of the Zerg. He could not believe that the armor in front of him was actually forged using the corpse of the ancient Zerg.
It was light and beautiful. Moreover, the body of the armor was carved with complex patterns, making it look even more mysterious.
Janos raised his hand and touched the patterns on the armor. He said with great satisfaction, “In order to forge this armor, I have conducted research on the materials of the Zerg’s entire body. The main material for forging the armor is the exoskeleton of the Zerg, which has a strong shock absorption effect. At the same time, it can effectively avoid most magic damage. The sharpest and sturdiest legs of the Zerg were forged by me into the spine of this armor. Not only can it provide better support for the wearer of the armor, but it can also extend six legs from the back to assist the wearer in battle. The two pincers of the Zerg were used to forge the shoulders of the armor. The inspiration came from Kurt’s body structure, which makes it easier for the wearer to control!”
Janos continued explaining, “At the same time, the Zerg also has a very precious material, which is its silk gland. As long as psionic power was injected into it, the silk gland would be able to produce spider silk in a short period of time. Not only could it retrieve objects through space, but it could also use the spider silk to climb and glide. This will allow the wearer of the armor to be more flexible in battle and move in a more mysterious way. Also, because the Zerg’s body was too large, I mixed in some long-cherished memory crystals, which will allow the armor to fit anyone who wears it! In addition, I’ve engraved the gnome’s incantations on the armor. These incantations represent power and can provide a certain degree of power amplification for the wearer of the armor in battle!”
Vincent listened to Janos’s explanation while nodding his head in delight. He really liked the use of the armor. It was perfectly meeting all his expectations.
“Right, didn’t you say that this armor will have special abilities? What abilities are those?” asked Vincent.
Janos smiled and said, “These special abilities can only be discovered after using them. Only then can the level of this armor be officially assessed. However, I believe that with this perfect level of forging, it will definitely be able to create an armor that is not inferior to the universe level!”
Vincent took a deep breath and asked, “Then I’ll give it a try?”
Janos nodded happily and personally took out the armor. He then helped Vincent to put it on. He led Vincent to the empty space outside the house.
Vincent felt that his body had become much lighter. Not only did the armor not make him feel heavy, but it had also increased his mobility!
Janos, who was very experienced, retreated to the corner of the street and reminded Vincent loudly, “Sir Vincent, you need to use psionic power to infuse the entire armor. Only then will you be able to fully control all the abilities of this armor!”
Vincent nodded and gestured for him to retreat. Then, he began to activate all the psionic power in his body and infuse it into the armor.
As the fine runes on the armor gradually lit up, the dark golden armor instantly shone with a dazzling golden light. At that moment, Vincent felt that he had completely fused with the armor. He knew every ability of the armor in his heart.
As Vincent willed it, six long blade-like feet suddenly popped out from his back, and two long pincers extended from his shoulders. After casually waving them twice, they knocked down all the surrounding buildings.
Vincent nodded in excitement. He was very satisfied with the attack power of the armor. Then, he raised his hands, and two long spider threads suddenly shot out from his wrists. The spider threads stuck to the tall building not far ahead.
As the spider threads began to retract, Vincent’s body instantly left the ground. As Vincent pulled forcefully in the air, the dilapidated tall building in front of him instantly collapsed. However, the spider threads were safe and sound. They did not break.
With a thought, Vincent retracted his four limbs in the air, and then abruptly opened them. A dark golden light instantly spread out in all directions.
However, this light did not have the terrifying destructive power that he had imagined. Instead, it swept through the surrounding streets like a breeze.
Janos, who was hiding in the corner, saw the scene and could not help but lower his head in shame and self-blame. It seemed that he had not created any useful special abilities for this armor. He also did not fulfill his promise of creating a piece of universe-level equipment.
After Vincent landed, he looked at the surrounding streets and shouted excitedly, “Janos, well done, this armor is really great!”
When Janos heard this, he could not help but raise his head in surprise. He suddenly realized that the house beside Vincent had started to melt rapidly. Even the surrounding air had been corroded by an invisible force, forming a hemispherical arc.
Janos quickly ran forward, his face full of shock as he exclaimed, “This, this is…”
Vincent smiled and said, “This is the ability of the ancient Zerg’s slime. It can corrode space, and the corrosion ability of this armor will increase with the user’s level, making the user even stronger! In my opinion, corroding the body of someone of the same level would not be a problem. This power is simply too strong!”
Janos swallowed his saliva excitedly and muttered, “Corroding space… This armor has the power to affect space, it just happens to meet the universe-level equipment evaluation criteria! We’ve succeeded!”
Vincent raised his hand and patted Janos’s shoulder, saying, “It’s you who succeeded! As expected of a top craftsman! It’s just that I still don’t know what the name of this armor is?”
Janos’s old face turned red, and he said helplessly, “No, no name! I can forge equipment, but I really don’t know how to name it. It’s better to let Sir Vincent personally name it!”
Vincent lowered his head to look at the armor on his body. He suddenly had a flash of inspiration and said, “It’s called the Doom Armor! Because his special ability is extremely difficult to avoid, just like the doom that an opponent cannot escape from!”
Janos nodded repeatedly when he heard that. He gave Vincent a thumbs up and praised, “Good, good! Sir Vincent had named it personally, it’s extraordinary! The Doom Armor sounds very generous. It won’t be a disgrace to the prestige of this armor!”
Vincent then opened his arms and said to Janos, “Now that this ability has been tested by me, can you help me take off this armor?”
Janos asked with a puzzled look, “This armor is so light and beautiful. It can be worn as casual clothes. Why do you want to take it off?”
Vincent smiled slightly and said, “Because this armor was not forged for me. I have the Flaming Sun Divine Body. Under the fire spiritualization state, I can heal all my injuries. It would be a waste for me to wear the armor. This is actually a gift I want to give to my lover!”
Janos was stunned for a while before he nodded and said, “I, I see! But I remember that you have two lovers, Sir. It would not be good to give only one gift, right?”
Vincent sighed softly, “I would like to give each of them a big gift, but there is only one such top-grade material, but I can slowly compensate them in the future!”
Janos felt that it made sense. Furthermore, Sir Vincent’s decision was not something that ordinary individuals could understand, so he was prepared to help Vincent to remove his armor.
However, at that moment, world-shaking energy suddenly erupted from the center of the city.
Vincent’s current strength was extraordinary. After staggering two steps on the spot, he steadied his body. However, Janos was directly overturned onto a house at the side.
Kurt, who had been guarding at the side, raised his hand and pressed on his temple. A virtual screen instantly appeared in front of his eyes. He quickly said to Vincent, “Mr. Vincent, there seems to be a very terrifying energy gathering at the altar. Moreover, it is continuously rising. If it is allowed to continue developing, there is a risk of destroying the entire world!”
Vincent was greatly shocked when he heard this. He quickly said to Kurt, “You go and look after Janos. I will rush over and check what’s happening first!”
With that, Vincent raised his hand and threw out the spider thread. His body quickly streaked across the town. He arrived in front of the altar in the center of the city in the blink of an eye.
At the same time, there was also a space door that had just opened.
Ebenezer brought Harson and Daniel out of the space tunnel and asked Vincent with a blank look, “Master, what happened?”
Vincent shook his head calmly and walked into the altar. He saw Avril and Angelina standing guard in front of the altar.
Vincent quickly asked, “What happened? Where is Irene?”
Angelina was so nervous that she could not speak. Avril pointed to the altar and said, “We followed your instructions and brought Irene to the altar. She activated the statue of the seven gods. Now, she is receiving the inheritance of the seven gods!”
Vincent frowned and sighed, “That’s impossible. How could she cause such a big commotion after inheriting the body of a God? Which God did she receive the approval of?”
Avril paused for a moment and looked at Angelina. The two of them said helplessly, “She received the unanimous approval of the seven gods!”
Vincent’s eyes widened in confusion. He then quickly walked into the altar and looked at Irene, who was enveloped by the seven lights. At that moment, she was floating in the air with her eyes slightly closed. She looked like a goddess who had descended from the sky. For a moment, he did not know what to feel.
Irene was previously someone who was unable to cultivate. Although she was respected on the surface in the capital of Ultimate Evil, she had always been treated as a good-for-nothing in the dark.
Vincent did not expect Irene to actually receive all gifts from the seven gods after returning to the Spirit World. This was really unexpected.
The ground suddenly stopped shaking. Irene, who was floating in the air, slowly opened her eyes. Her body was surrounded by the seven-colored divine light, which was quickly withdrawn into her body.
At that moment, Irene’s temperament was sublimated from the inside to the outside. Her eyes seemed to contain eternal power. There was a hint of sadness, reluctance, and gratitude as she looked at Vincent. She slowly landed in front of him.
Vincent asked softly, “Are you okay?”
Irene smiled, revealing a peerless grace that others had never seen before. She said, “I have received the favor of the seven gods of the Spirit Race, and I have witnessed the history of the Spirit Race from the power of the seven gods. Now I can finally cultivate, but at the same time, I don’t need to cultivate at all!”
Vincent frowned and asked, “What does that mean? What kind of divine body technique did you get? Or do you have seven divine bodies?”
Irene smiled and said, “I got the power of the seven gods as one, which is a divine body technique that can create a world! I can now use the power of any God, but the Creator’s divine body can only be used after accumulating power over a long period of time so that its level will increase. When the Creator’s divine body reaches the highest level, I can directly create a race, or even resurrect the Spirit Race!”
“…”
Vincent could not help but take a deep breath. He did not expect Irene’s ability to be so powerful, and at the same time, so helpless.
An ability that could only be improved over a long period of time was the most useless ability for Vincent. This was because what he lacked the most at the moment was time!
Vincent said softly, “Since you can cultivate, that’s a good thing. Now, we must evacuate as soon as possible. Otherwise, once we are discovered by the demon army in the surrounding Black Hole, it will be endless trouble!”
Irene shook her head with a reluctant expression and said to Vincent, “I’ve already inherited the will of the Spirit Race, so I have to shoulder the responsibility of protecting this land. I can’t go with you for the rest of the road!”
“You want to stay?” asked Vincent softly without any expression of surprise. It was as if Irene’s decision had long been within his expectations.
Irene nodded lightly and looked at Avril and Angelina. She whispered to Vincent, “I can see the feelings between the three of you. Even if I continue to stay by your side, it will be meaningless! Of course, I hope that you can stay and be the first male of the Spirit Race, but I know that this is impossible, so let me stay here alone. And I heard that you can also help me close the Black Hole of the Spirit Race?”
Vincent took a deep breath and he slowly sighed, “If you are known as the leader of the Spirit Race, then we can work together to seal the Black Hole. However, I hope that you can continue to stay around the teleportation platform in this small town. In the future, you can let me lead other humans to come here to learn the divine body technique!”
Irene gently nodded and smiled, “As long as you come, I will always welcome you! Moreover, I am willing to represent the Spirit Race and become friends with the Human Race!”
Vincent smiled and reached out his hand. He shook Irene’s hand gently and said solemnly, “The Human Race and the Spirit Race will always be friends!”
