Chapter 686 Demonstration Of Trust
After organizing all the vast pieces of information he had received from the Universe's Fate, he figured that there were different ways to create the Chaos Obelisks.
There were different blueprints of Chaos Obelisks in his mind, and given their unique characteristics, they all came to the conclusion that it was fine to construct the Chaos Obelisks below the surface.
"This Chaos Obelisk is literally called Cave Chaos Obelisk, who the hell would label it like that and ask for the Chaos Obelisk to be placed on the surface?!" Kathrine had shouted at the end of the debate, while Sven had added a small comment to her exclamation.
"Furthermore, Dilan has been requested to construct them as far as possible from one another. It would be weird to give Dilan the opportunity to build underground Chaos Obelisks if the Universe didn't actually want him to take this path. Let's just play along…"
It took their group long enough to figure out how exactly they wanted to place the Chaos Obelisks. However, choosing the type of Chaos Obelisk was also not very easy. The only Obelisk that was obvious to create was the one with the highest fire resistance so that it wouldn't melt and be destroyed the moment it would be installed on the core of the planet, surrounded by magma much hotter than ordinary materials can endure.
While the others were debating what kind of Chaos Obelisk would be the easiest to choose, Rory and the others surrounded the Queen's Image. The Queen's Image waited for Dilan right now. She didn't say a thing after the information of the Mystic Mission reached her.
As one of the Ancient True Gods, the Queen of Immortality might want to prevent Dilan from becoming the Supreme Ruler of Milarn.
In fact, the Image might have already informed the Queen about everything. In return, the Queen of Immortality might have already given the Image command, or she told others more information about Dilan, like a memory that showed his current appearance, the coordinates of the flying island, or so on.
Dilan knew about the possibility but it was already too late to distrust the Queen of Immortality after everything they had gone through.
"Can you help me find out where I can find the materials required for the creation of the Chaos Obelisk? It would be great if you can help me map Milarn and collect information about the environment, the races living there, and so on," Dilan said when he approached the Queen's Image.
The others were looking at him with questionable expressions. They wondered why Dilan didn't even ask the Image whether it would help him or if the Queen of Immortality choose to abandon and exploit him after all.
"If you can still trust me, I can help you," The Image responded monotonously, which was enough for Dilan.
"I don't think that you or the Queen of Immortality will betray me. There was a good reason why one of the main Images was sent to the City of Trials. You believe in the prophecy and the Fate Changer thing."
Dilan knew the Queen of Immortality very well after spending with her 10,000 years in the City of Trials. That being said, there was no need to distrust her.
He would rather spend his focus on other things.
The Image looked at him and a smile formed on her face for the first time.
"That's what the Queen said as well."
She stepped forward and grasped Dilan's right hand before exuding a bright light through her hands. A sharp pain pierced through the back of his hand but Dilan didn't even flinch. He looked into the eyes of the 341st Image and used his Mystic Eyes to see how much of her energy she was using right now.
It was much more than expected, yet, the result was quite disappointing at the first glance. There was a small emblem of a mirror engraved on the back of his hand. It was white in color and didn't look like anything special otherwise.
"As long as you insert mana into the emblem, you can message the Images directly. At the same time, information about your surrounding area with a radius equivalent to the amount of mana you insert will be sent to the database of the Images. This includes the fluctuations of Gates, and the races you will encounter when traveling around.
This is the easiest way you will be able to travel around without the need to stay anywhere for too long. The only issue is that you will have to fly around Milarn multiple times to map the entire planet. We will have to find the best locations to place the Chaos Obelisks, after all!"
The words of the Queen's Image made sense and Dilan nodded his head.
However, the others were still not sure what to say as Tenur stepped forward.
"You can give us a Lesser version of this mirror emblem as well. I am pretty fast and nobody will be able to catch me as long as I used my Speed of Light Power! I, and probably many other Essence Angels want to help as well. We don't like staying around uselessly…"
Tenur, the Holy Guard of Ariel Silvertale, spoke in all honesty. He swallowed his pride right now but the Queen's Image looked at him as monotonously as ever.
"You don't understand the worth of this emblem. Nobody ever received it, and nobody other than Dilan will ever be in its possession."
The Queen's Image spoke without any emotions but it felt like she was eerily cold toward Tenur. The Lesser God Archangel flinched and nodded his head before he turned around and left.
His pride had been hurt but it was not as if he was ready to offend an Ancient True God, one of the oldest at that, just because his pride had been hurt.
Meanwhile, Dilan looked at the emblem with a faint smile.
'A demonstration of her trust…is that it?'
