Chapter 1076: An Excellent Opportunity For The Four-eared Elves
.....
Later that day
Orion and Isadora landed in Patriarch Rylan\'s compound, where Patriarch Rylan and a group of the gods\' chosens quickly rushed out of the building to greet him.
"You don\'t need to rush out with everyone to greet me whenever I visit. I\'m perfectly fine with you simply inviting me inside," Orion said, his eyes meeting Patriarch Rylan\'s.
"No, that wouldn\'t be proper. We\'ve made a promise to ourselves to show you our gratitude in any way we can, and coming out to greet you whenever you visit is one way we uphold that," Patriarch Rylan responded firmly, shaking his head.
Orion insisted, "I appreciate that, but I\'m sure they have important tasks. It would be troublesome if they had to abandon them every time I visit."
Seeing her father was about to argue further, Isadora interjected, "Father, I don\'t think it\'s right to say we want to show our gratitude to the Supreme Leader if we keep refusing his requests."
Hearing his daughter\'s words, Patriarch Rylan nodded quickly, "If that\'s the case, then very well. Let\'s head inside," he said, gesturing for them to follow him.
Orion and Isadora followed him into the building. Some of the gods\' chosen stayed behind to guard the entrance, while others returned to their previous activities.
Once inside, the three of them sat around a table.
"I\'m sure you\'ve already guessed why I\'m here," Orion said, breaking the brief silence.
Patriarch Rylan swiftly nodded, acknowledging that it had only been a day since the strange event occurred. He had been anticipating this visit. "I hope the Supreme Leader is willing to properly explain what\'s been transpiring so we can fully understand the situation," Patriarch Rylan replied, his tone expectant.
"Unfortunately, I can\'t divulge all the details. However, I can tell you that spirit beasts are crucial to Paradise\'s development of its strength," Orion replied, his tone serious. "Since the Four-eared Elves specialize in this area and possess more knowledge about the Spirit Realm than anyone else within Paradise, I have come to ask if you\'ll do your best to make this possible."
As Orion concluded, Patriarch Rylan was momentarily dumbfounded. His mind raced as he pieced together everything he had heard. To gain a spirit beast\'s strength, one must first locate, summon, and form a contract with them to borrow their power. But after what he had witnessed, he knew it wasn\'t that simple.
Patriarch Rylan briefly glanced at his daughter, who nodded before he cleared his throat and refocused on Orion. "Can I know how Paradise intends to use spirit beasts to enhance strength? Does it involve the same process we witnessed previously?" he asked.
Orion nodded. "Yes. We also want to enable our warriors to contract with spirit beasts, even if they are neutral or malevolent, to improve our reserve tactics further."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Given the effectiveness of Vylkr energy against spirit beasts, it doesn\'t mean they\'re safe from its side effects, as he had seen with the Dragmin gods\' chosen, who, despite resisting its possession, were still influenced by its evil force. Therefore, every warrior will undergo a test before forming a contract with a spirit beast, with the results determining their suitability.
Patriarch Rylan gulped at Orion\'s words. Paradise was genuinely willing to consume spirit beasts to develop their strength further! If he hadn\'t witnessed it, he would have laughed and dismissed the Supreme Leader\'s suggestion of putting the Four-eared elves in charge of such a task. But the seriousness of the matter left his body trembling.
How would the spirit beasts react if they learned they would be devoured rather than forming contracts? If he could summon his ancestors and tell them such news, they would likely see him as a malevolent force.
However, despite his fears, Patriarch Rylan knew he couldn\'t refuse. This offer was the very improvement the Four-eared elves needed.
"Okay, I\'ll do my best to ensure we meet your expectations. But there\'s a challenge; without our Runaway City, we can\'t freely use the gate to enter the spirit realm. Rebuilding it would take considerable time and require numerous valuable resources, some of which can only be obtained from other Runaway Cities," Patriarch Rylan explained.
"So, the only option is to take the more traditional route. This means we\'ll be limited to teaching and helping only a few individuals access the spirit realm,"
Orion considered this for a moment before nodding. "That\'s acceptable. Provide me with a list of the necessary materials later. We can start small and expand as we go."
His primary focus was on the Prismerion Divine Apostles, so the situation was manageable. They were also on the verge of resuming their exploration once all the essential tasks were completed. He was certain they would likely encounter other Runaway Cities and obtain the needed resources.
"As for the Four-eared elves\' new residence, I\'ll leave the location up to you," ," Orion added. Patriarch Rylan bowed his head gratefully. "Thank you, Supreme Leader," he replied.
"The Four-eared elves are already part of Paradise, so there\'s no need to thank me. It\'s only natural," Orion replied, waving off the gratitude casually.
"Of course. Allow me to escort you out," Patriarch Rylan said as he rose, understanding that their discussion had concluded.
Orion also stood with Isadora beside him, and they followed him outside. As they exited the building, they noticed two of the gods\' chosen engaged in training.
One of them extended his hand, and a glyph hovered before him. Instead of forming a portal for a spirit beast, the glyph morphed into a reptilian bird-like spirit beast, wrapped in numerous strands of Vylkr energy, then launched at his opponent.
The other gods\' chosen swiftly retaliated, retreating slightly to evade the attack. She summoned a glyph, which transformed into a bird-like creature enveloped in a swirling mass of Vylkr energy and sent it hurtling forward.
