Chapter 801: Chapter 149: The Harvest and the Wounded Gold Dragon

“However… the gains this time are not limited to that.”

Cassius snorted loudly, unable to restrain himself from exhaling a sulfurous white smoke, feeling the undulations in his body, the energy surging through his Dragon Blood vessels.

Now, the body of the Red Dragon is like a vast ocean, where the bloodline of the Ancestral Dragon, Chaos Flame, Force of Order, and the Authority of the Fire Elemental Plane… myriad forces of different attributes interlace within him like tides, moving and forming a vast and intricate system.

With the aid of the True Vision Technique, Cassius scrutinized his own body, and finally discovered two kinds of powers that he had just plundered– the Origin of Heaven and the Divine Power of the Sun, both transformed into special objects within the body of the Red Dragon.

A delicate translucent sphere floats within the Dragon Blood, slowly rotating– that is a part of Heaven’s Origin from Heavenly Mountain, making up two percent of the entire Silver Heaven, laden with the overwhelming Power of Laws.

[Heart of Lucia]

Mythical object, Myth

Domains: Order, Justice, Goodness, Law, Light

Effects: Unknown

Description: Heaven is the home of many good creatures, such as Asmos, Star Realm Apostles, Otherworldly Divine Servants, and Blaze Celestial Servants.

Seven blessed Martyrs, who sacrificed themselves for Order and Goodness, appear in this young plane in powerful and unique forms–entrusted by Heaven itself to serve as its immortal rulers and govern the Seven Layers of Heaven, each wielding a portion of Heaven’s Authority.

“Is this the Authority of Heaven?… Merely gazing upon it, one can feel Order, Justice, and Pure Goodness,” Cassius thought.

Balachiel only brought down five percent of the Origin of the Silver Heavenly Kingdom this time, yet he could contend with Cassius on equal footing, while Lucia is but the smallest plane among the Seven Layers of Heaven, which serves to illustrate the might of Heavenly Mountain.

And Zafkiel, seated high in the Radiant Heaven, is an existence that even Cassius must look up to.

The Origin of Heaven is, after all, a force nurtured by the Outer Planes over endless eons; even Cassius finds it difficult to digest and master in a short time, and he will need to plan for the long term.

The other object is a miniature Sun suspended inside the heart, constantly emitting light and heat, illuminating the surrounding space– that is the Divine Power originating from the Sun God, Amanata.

Over these days, he has obtained not only the Divine Powers of Walter and Karen, but also captured all the Angel Divine Descendants of North Aisier, cruelly stripping them of the Divine Power within them.

[Blood of Amanata]

Mythical object, Myth

Domains: Law, Order, Sun, Light, Fire

Description: A hundred years ago, the Holy Fadlan Emperor, the great “Sun Emperor” Aragon the First held a grand ceremony to worship the Sun God, Amanata.

In that splendid sacrificial ceremony, nobles chosen by the Emperor also received the blessings of Amanata and became “Divine Descendants” with formidable strength and long lifespans.

“Is this the so-called Power of the Sun? Interesting…”

Gazing at the miniature Sun, Cassius couldn’t help licking his lips, already quite familiar with the Divine Power.

Divine Power, as the name suggests, is the primal force of divinities, the concrete manifestation of their strength, and the vessel through which they display miracles and release their might.

For mortals, the essence of Divinity within the Divine Power is enough to turn them into so-called “Divine Descendants,” enjoying lifespans of thousands of years and possessing strength beyond the reach of ordinary mortals.

But only beings with ignited Divine Fire can generate Divine Power, a condition Cassius has yet to fulfill. To him, the Sun God Power within his body is like water without source, merely a consumable.

As a deity of Law and the Sun, the Divine Power of Amanata contains elements and Laws including Law, Order, Sun, Light, and Flame, very much in line with the attributes of Cassius himself, therefore, he is able to wield it particularly smoothly.

[You have absorbed [the Divine Power of the Law and Sun God–Amanata] and gained special abilities: [Sun Breath] [Fierce Sun Magic Orb]]

[Sun Breath]

Strengthened by the Power of the Sun God, your Breath will have the terrifying power of a stellar explosion, like an enraged Sun, destroying everything before you.

[Fierce Sun Magic Orb]

You can create an illusion of the Sun in the sky, making the surroundings hotter and drier, changing the climate within a thousand-kilometer radius.

Both of these special abilities surpass the Ninth Tier, on par with Legendary Spells, but as Cassius has collected only a limited amount of Sun God Power, they can only be used a few times.

However, Cassius was not dissatisfied with this outcome; instead, he nodded in extreme satisfaction and murmured to himself:

“Don’t all Fadlan People worship the Sun God? What will they think when I perform such a ‘miracle’ before their very eyes?

Duke Walter, thank you for delivering such a powerful claim to me. I shall fulfill the vision of restoring the Fadlan–you only imagined it differently.”

He walked out of the cave, his towering back rising like a mountain, his broad wings slowly unfolding.

“Cassandra, Thrace, Seleucid, these puppet kingdoms, what Fadlan are they? Our Ashen Empire is the true successor of Fadlan!”

The Red Dragon’s mouth curled up, and that majestic dragon face once again revealed a ferocious smile.

In his past life, due to the ongoing struggle among kings over the title of Emperor, the Three Great Kingdoms of Cassandra, Thrace, and Seleucid were jokingly referred to by players as East Fadlan, North Fadlan, and West Flanders, respectively.
