Pioneer Lord: Starting From Daily Intelligence

Chapter 665: Chapter 51: Flash Spear City and Heaven’s Lance (Part 2)

But at this moment, the Ramsey family dared not offend Su Li in any way. Even when Zoe asked this question, she stayed far outside the house. This woman was proud and arrogant, but not stupid, not to the point of letting the Bauhinia family hear her.

Finally, members of their family took turns to bring this ancestor to the negotiation table. The Endless Sea Navigation Star Map was simply too important. Without this map, their Ramsey family could lose at least hundreds of thousands of Golden Crowns.

For such a huge fortune, even Zoe had to lower her proud head. But the benefit brought by this situation was that the negotiation was unusually frank, directly hitting the point.

Reluctantly, Zoe sat at the long table and said directly, ”Bauhinia Knight, the treasure of our family, the Endless Sea Navigation Star Map, should be in your hands. This thing, for you, is actually of little effect. It should be said that it has little value to most forces, otherwise the Thieves’ Guild wouldn’t have hidden it in the Eternal Flame Cathedral.”

”But it is an important nautical guide for our family. If you are willing to return this treasure to us, our family will thank you with the utmost sincerity by offering our family’s greatest discovery, the Divine King’s Relic: Heaven’s Spear.”

”It is said to be a miracle product forged by the ancient Arglaxian Empire, capable of tracking the rotation and orbit of domains.”

Angladian Empire?

Su Li really had never heard of this name. The current human kingdoms are simply called Empire or Holy Empire.

What is this Argladian Empire?

Although Zoe was proud, she still had excellent knowledge. She continued to introduce, ”The Argladian Empire was an ancient magical regime composed of a proud and terrifying nation. Those without magic skills were degraded to slaves. The ruling class of the Argladians were obsessed with mysterious power, building many miracles on the Great Scorched Earth, including the magnificent Titan factories used for building colossuses, the destructive weapon known as the Prism Array, and the grand Floating City Alamentia.”

”When the Age of Chaos arrived and the Power of Destruction unleashed abhorrent demons into the Mortal Realm, the Argladians and their castle were completely unprepared. Reality tore open a rift leading to the Chaos Realm and Treachery’s domain. Demons and grotesque aberrations swarmed in and attacked the city. The Argladian Empire fell; its people were either slaughtered or became followers of the Master of Deceit.”

”For centuries, Treachery’s mortals and demons occupied the city, twisting and reshaping the iconic spires, while laying pipes deep within the dungeons. Treachery’s arcanists continued the Argladians’ experiments below the city, using more aggressive and cruel methods. Outside the walls, a purplish-pink vortex began to form, and Aspiria’s coast began to collapse. Ships sailing the sea would helplessly be dragged into Treachery’s domain, with the crew screaming and shouting in vain. All this made it a thoroughly abandoned chaotic ghost domain.”

”The situation improved when our Divine King Redema descended. He ordered the Thunder-Forged Divine Weapon to reclaim the city, and Celestial Realm’s War Messengers blitzed into the city’s center like a thunderbolt, smashing the armies of the Evil God. Treachery’s followers were finally driven out of the city or fled to hidden parts of the castle. The city was reclaimed and renamed Flash Spear City, both because its core soared high like a long lance and because of its iconic Heaven’s Spear.”

”Later, the Divine King returned to the Celestial Realm, but the Heaven’s Spear remained. When our fleet navigated the abandoned Aspiria coast, they discovered this relic left by the Divine King and brought it back. Originally, it was intended for our family’s Pioneer Lord to rebuild this Flash Spear City, but if you, Bauhinia Knight, are willing to return the Endless Sea Navigation Star Map to our family, we are willing to offer this in thanks.”

Su Li immediately asked, ”What exactly is the effect of this Heaven’s Spear?”

Zoe was very solemn, saying, ”This is a powerful Holy Artifact that can affect an entire force. When you rebuild Flash Spear City, its blazing light will draw the attention of the Order Gods. As a territory of the Sun Goddess Church, the effect is likely that all knights loyal to you will have their charge speed and power greatly enhanced under the blessing of strong Divine Grace.”

”Additionally, the other churches within the territory will benefit accordingly. The cultivators will be able to use divine magic one more time each day, and during ceremonies or special festivals, the amount of Divine Grace they can obtain will also increase by one!”

”Of course, there’s an even stronger effect: perceiving other domains, although you might not need it at the moment.”

”Is it really that powerful?” Su Li took a deep breath. This meant that Hesse Territory would gain a super Holy Land, and the territory’s output would enhance comprehensively!

For example, on special festivals, the Sun Goddess Convent could produce a Religious Holy Image, the Dawn Church could produce a bottle of Blood of the Earth, and the Shalya Church could produce a dose of Tears of Mercy, but under the enhancement of Flash Spear City’s effect, each convent could produce two doses.

And with the general enhancement of Divine Grace, the effect is surely not limited to this. Perhaps the other Holy Lands and various agricultural results will experience a comprehensive boost from the enhanced Divine Grace.

Zoe shrugged and explained, ”Such powerful effects naturally come at a price. Its prominent light, like a beam shooting to the sky from the dark earth, can attract the Order Gods’ more precise distribution of Divine Grace, but it can also draw greater attention from the Chaos Evil God. This city will become an enemy of Treachery and Sado, and there will be a continuous stream of Demon Legions marching toward your city, attempting to seize it.”
