Chapter 879 - Each Took What He Needed (1/2)
However, the chance of finding anything valuable in the already deserted incubation room after the explosion was even lower. The gear that the team had eyed were almost completely destroyed in the explosion. Even the Time Domain which Claus had booked, the core of this incubation room, was destroyed. Even if they could find any valuable things, it could only be the spare parts.
Lin Li hadn’t been too concerned with this incubation room at first. After all, he didn’t even want the Time Domain, not to mention these parts that had already lost their function. However, the appearance of the Whispering G.o.d made Lin Li judge the value of this incubation again, especially since this Whispering G.o.d was very likely to have been created by Prince Brahere himself.
Unfortunately, the entire incubation room was turned into ruins now. Digging a rubbish dump would probably yield more valuables than this place now. Seeing that each faction’s team had spread out to search the place inch by inch, Lin Li suddenly thought of the equipment which had held the black magical crystal back when he dived into the pool. He didn’t know if there was anything left of it after the explosion.
However, just as Lin Li prepared to take a look at the pool, he heard joyful calls from the Mithril Alliance’s team. Lin Li turned and saw a green spherical object with holes on it lying in Joseph’s hands. Feeble murmurs came out from those holes.
Lin Li frowned a little, and relaxed his brows instantly. Back at the Endless World, after Paladin Francis had killed that Whispering G.o.d, someone had picked up the same thing was what Joseph was holding now. The system named it the Whispering G.o.d’s heart. Be it its heart or brain, this green sphere was the Whispering G.o.d’s essential organ. Those mind controlling whispers were produced by this essential organ. Thus, the Whispering G.o.d’s special ability was also known as Heart Whisper.
Joseph didn’t know the Whispering G.o.d, so he wouldn’t know anything about the Whispering G.o.d’s heart. However, just from the whispers alone, he could guess that the source of the monster’s mind-controlling abilities was this thing.
This really was a treasure! Recalling the scene during the battle against the monster, Joseph looked at this sphere in his hands, and all the gloominess in his heart was immediately swept away.
Under the current Magic System, mental spells like Allure could affect people’s mind, but magic that could control a large number of people like the Whispering G.o.d’s whispers was unheard of. Although the scope of the mind-controlling whispers only extended to this incubation room in the battle just now, Joseph could totally visualize how the effect of the whispers could extend even further if it was used in a more s.p.a.cious room. That would make it an invincible weapon! As long as he could find the right way to use it, it would become the most formidable weapon the Mithril Alliance possessed.
He could even a.n.a.lyze the principles behind how the whispers were produced, and create a new Forbidden Spell. As the one who had this magic, he would be a man of high status in the whole of Anril. Thinking of how much benefits this Whispering G.o.d’s heart could potentially bring for him, Joseph couldn’t hide the excitement he was feeling now.
Seeing that Joseph was holding the Whispering G.o.d’s heart with inconcealable joy, Lin Li didn’t feel any sense of jealousy at all. Instead, he shook his head with a smile. Lin Li could guess what Joseph was plotting from his facial expression. However, how could the secrets behind the Whispering G.o.d’s heart be so easily deciphered?
Back at the Endless World, the Whispering G.o.d’s heart which was left behind also stirred up a storm amongst players in the game as if an artifact had appeared. Everyone had the same thought as Joseph: they wanted to either use it to create a powerful magical weapon or a.n.a.lyze the powerful heart-whispering magic behind it.
What was the outcome? Lin Li still remembered that the last owner of that Whispering G.o.d’s heart had been rumored to have put in immense effort to invite numerous NPCs from different fields who had reached the peak of Guru-level, hoping to crack the secrets of the Whispering G.o.d’s heart. However, those NPCs didn’t even do any research on the Whispering G.o.d’s heart after they had seen it, and told its owner that it wasn’t a realm mortals could reach. Rather than consulting them, he might have a better chance if he took it to the G.o.ds and prayed.
In the end, the owner of that Whispering G.o.d’s heart didn’t pray to the G.o.ds. Instead, he sold it to the system store out of anger. The most ridiculous thing was that the system only gave him one gold coin for it.
In the setting of the Endless World, there weren’t any wars that destroyed a great amount of inheritance like in Anril. Thus, the amount of knowledge in all fields was significantly higher in the Endless World compared to Anril. If not, Lin Li wouldn’t have had such a good life in Anril with his knowledge from the Endless World.
Not to mention Gurus who were a step away from becoming Divine Smiths, even a normal Guru was extremely rare to find in the current Anril. People who had reached Master-level were already at the peak of each field. In an environment with this level of knowledge, it was a fool’s dream to obtain anything from a.n.a.lyzing the Whispering G.o.d’s heart.
It wasn’t exaggerating to say that even Highlord Osric from the Dark Age might not be able to grasp the skill to create these mind-controlling whispers. As for Prince Brahere who had personally created this Whispering G.o.d, he was undeniably a genius, and a true madman.
Lin Li knew that he possibly wasn’t as talented as Prince Brahere, so he was naturally not interested in the Whispering G.o.d’s heart Joseph was holding. However, the others in the team didn’t know as much as Lin Li. Be it Hoffman or Claus, both looked rather jealous of Joseph’s good luck, and ordered their men to search the room more carefully. Even a piece of garbage had to be properly examined.
“President, look at this!”
Just as Lin Li was walking towards the pool, Alan came close to him mysteriously, and carefully took out an item away from the Mithril Alliance and Caesar Family’s view.
After seeing what Alan had taken out, Lin Li couldn’t help but laugh. It was Claus’ precious trump card—the form-mimicking magical bugs’ hive. He asked, “Alan, how did it end up with you?”
