Chapter 854 - A Bonus (1/2)
Since ancient times, Holy City had undergone many repairs, but its appearance remained the same, which was of that of a strong ancient style.
At the hall of the temple, Qin Haodong introduced all the Pontifex Maximus and Paladins to Kathryn.
When they saw the Holy Force of these new members, both Kathryn and Alex were shocked. Compared with their predecessors of the Divine Court, these new Pontifex Maximus and Paladins were much more powerful.
Looking at this handsome young man from Huaxia, Alex had mixed feelings. Ever since she met him, the entire Divine Court had changed dramatically within a few days.
Kathryn was now the Divine King and since all the four Paladins had been killed, she was the only Pontifex Maximus left.
In other words, Qin Haodong had brought changes to the Divine Court even though he was not the Divine King.
Even the Dark Parliament was under his control. Qin was the actual ruler of the whole western world.
Kathryn said, “Doctor Qin, thank you for doing so much for our Divine Court.”
Qin Haodong said, “You’re welcome. We must work together to fight against the enemy.”
Although he had integrated the eastern forces with the western, he was still worried after seeing the strength of the alien demon generals.
They had a lot of people on their side, but they did not have the upper hand yet. After all, in a duel between the best players, the one with the most people was not always the victor.
He had not met the Alien Demon Emperor yet and Qin Haodong was not sure how powerful he was. So his top priority was to do everything he could to improve his strength so that he could reach the Apotheosis Realm as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, he said to Kathryn, “Where did the bead on the Crown of God come from?”
“Do you mean the Firmament Stone?”
Compared to Kathryn who had just taken control of the Divine Court, Alex was clearer about what had happened. She said, “Ever since we lost the Crown of God of the first Divine King, we had been searching around the world but found nothing.”
“So we made a fake one and used the Firmament Stone to replace the Holy Stone.”
Qin Haodong realized that the Firmament Stone was the top-level Spirit Stones he needed. He asked eagerly, “OK, do you have any more Firmament Stones?”
Alex said, “It’s very precious, but such gems are just decoration for our clergies.”
“The stones are passed down for generations. I don’t know if there is any left. I’ll have to check out the treasure vault of the Divine Court first.”
Qin Haodong said, “The Firmament Stones are very important to me. Could you please take me to have a look?”
But it was beyond Alex’s power to make the final decision. She turned to look at Kathryn, who was the Divine King.
Kathryn nodded, “Of course, if there are any more, Dr. Qin can take them away.”
The reason why she was so generous was that, on the one hand, she had fallen in love with Qin Haodong. On the other hand, as they had discussed before, the Alien Demons were flexing their muscles and the human race was at risk now. She did not care about a few stones.
Then Alex went to the treasury of the Divine Court.
As the most powerful force in the West, the Divine Court had accumulated countless treasures in their huge treasury over the past thousands of years.
The moment he came into the treasure house, Qin Haodong immediately felt the rich Spiritual Qi. There were all kinds of treasures such as antiques, swords, and weapons. Anything here could be sold at a sky-high price.
Qin Haodong just ignored them. What he wanted were the top-level Spirit Stones.
The huge treasure house covered thousands of square meters and was divided into more than a dozen rooms. Qin Haodong checked these rooms one by one but didn’t find any top-level Spirit Stones.
Was that the only top-level Spirit Stone left?
Just when he was feeling disappointed, Alex opened the door to the last treasure room.
After the heavy wooden door was opened, a whiff of Spiritual Qi wafted out.
“Are these top-level Spirit Stones?”
Qin Haodong saw a small wooden box in the corner of the warehouse. There were dozens of top-level Spirit Stones in it.
“Oh my god, there are so many of them.”
Qin Haodong didn’t expect that there would be so many top-level Spirit Stones in the warehouse of the Divine Court, which were even extremely rare in the Cultivation World. They were just piled up here and treated as useless decorations.
He walked over and held the wooden box in his arms. There were 36 of them. With so many top-level Spirit Stones, he was confident he could reach the Apotheosis Realm.
Seeing his excited expression, Kathryn said, “Doctor Qin, they are all yours if you want them.”
“Thank you very much.”
Qin Haodong nodded. It seemed that this trip was worth it. He didn’t expect to find so many top-level Spirit Stones all at once.
But suddenly he had a brainwave. A practitioner couldn’t have too many treasures. Since there were so many top-level Spirit Stones in the vault of the Divine Court, the Dark Parliament must also have similar items.
Thinking of this, he hurriedly said goodbye to Kathryn and the others and headed straight for the Dark Ancient Castle, which was the headquarters of the Dark Parliament.
