Chapter 2888: Only The First One
Rean had given the idea for the Angels and Devils to join their treasures together, thinking they might be some kind of set. After all, they had very similar names. Werdlem Dark
Manipulator and Light Manipulator.
As one could expect, both sides didn't intend to bring their treasures out of the Heavens or the Underworld. After all, it has always been known for a very long time that the Underworld Relic only worked while in the Underworld, while the Heaven's Gyroscope was believed to only work in the Heavens.
Both sides agreed that they would only try to join these two treasures together if the Universe truly reached a point of no return during the Garisan's invasion. Simply put, those two treasures weren't supposed to have appeared here on the battlefield, which wasn't either the Underworld or the Heavens.
However, as the Angels and Devils decided to have a conversation about the possibility of both treasures having a special connection, something different happened.
Back at that time, Naya'il, Dalquiel, and Sophia of the Angels came out to have the conversation while Black Locust, Sansara, and Kilindou came out to talk on the Devils' behalf. The point was that neither side would leave those treasures in the hands of anyone else other than a Semi-Celestial of their race.
That culminated in Dalquiel and Black Locust bringing those two treasures inside their Pocket Dimensional Realms. As long as they were there, neither side had to worry about them being stolen, destroyed, or whatever.
Yet, none of them expected what took place. When they met in mid-space to talk about it, the two treasures reacted due to the proximity they had to each other. It was such a surprise that for a moment, both Angels and Devils thought the other side was trying something to deal with the other's treasure. A battle between these three Angels and Devils almost started, one accusing the other.
Fortunately, they also arranged for mediators to be in that conversation. Kafan, Gragatou, and Huban took part in that discussion and managed to calm the Devils and Angels down. Finally, both sides understood that they were having the same effect.
It was obvious that Rean's theory that these two treasures were part of a set was probably right. However, would any of the Devils or Angels really give their treasure to the other to test it out? There was no way such a thing would happen.
Nonetheless, they could still check the effects of both treasures being close, even if neither side would give their treasures away. The Angels and Devils took some distance from each other and after making sure there were no traps around, they finally pulled out their Werdlem Treasures.
The Underworld Relic and the Heaven's Gyroscope reaction to each other's presence intensified even though neither the Angels nor Devils were doing anything. Turns out that the Angels also knew that their Gyroscope only worked in the Heavens, just like the Underworld Relic in the Underworld. Yet, at this moment, they were truly reacting differently.
With Kafan, Gragatou, and Huban as mediators, the Angels and Devils finally activated their treasures' powers. To their surprise, the treasures truly activated. That had never happened outside the Underworld or the Heavens. Both sides had tried before. Yet, they were obviously working now.
That wasn't all. Usually, the Werdlem Dark Manipulator, also known as Underworld Relic, only increased the power of those with Dark Element affinity. The Heaven's Gyroscope/Werdlem Light Manipulator also usually only worked for being with Light Element Affinity.
It wasn't the case now. Huban and Gragatou could clearly feel their control over the laws and their elemental affinities increasing by a great margin. At that moment, they were stronger than they had ever been. It goes without saying that both Angels and Devils also received that increase in power, and it was bigger than it had been when they used their treasures in the Underworld or the Heavens alone!
Black Locust and Dalquiel could feel that their two treasures were also trying to break free from their hands. But because they were holding the treasures back, neither treasure could merge with the other. Nonetheless, the effect both treasures showed while being at that distance was already hugely remarkable.
After testing the two treasures for a while, the Devils and Angels finally put them back in their Pocket Dimensional Realms, although the treasures still reacted to each other inside those Dimensional Realms.
Now that everyone knew neither the Angels nor Devils were trying anything against the other's Werdlem Treasures, they finally decided to talk. Kafan made a very good case that such power could not be kept hidden. Their plan was to force the Garisan Universe to recognize them. With the addition of the twins' newfound powers, that was their best chance. A rare moment of understanding was shared between Devils and Angels that day. Their grievances mattered not if the entire Universe was gone in the end. So, they decided. Dalquiel and Black Locust would hold the treasures back in the Heavens and the Underworld. However, if the Garisan Forces decided to focus mainly on the Foundation Pillar again, they would bring the treasures out and use them to trash the Garisan Forces. That... was exactly what happened.
The Werdlem Dark and Light Manipulators appeared and reacted to each other. The power of Light and Dark, Yin and Yang, spread over the entire battlefield, just like the Unbalance Domain of the twins did.
Now, every single combatant from Lisan Universe felt a surge in power, especially those capable of controlling laws. Naturally, the Space-Time, Divinity, and Semi-Celestial Realm experts. It wouldn't be wrong to say that each one of them was at least 30% stronger than before.
Meanwhile, the twins' Yin Yang Unbalance Domain weakened all enemies. What was already an extremely bad situation for Garisan now was definitely irreparable.
*Arrrghhhh!*
Just two seconds after the Werdlem Treasures activated, a Semi-Celestial of the Garisan Universe fell. Still, he was only the first one.
