Chapter 365: The End of Blue Rose's Mission
Three years before the New Calendar.
Mid-Wind Month, May 20th.
Deep within a valley in the Abelion Hills.
Dense, thumb-sized motes of sacred energy, like a swarm of fireflies, rapidly converged toward the center in a torrent, releasing a dazzling radiance.
The sacred light dyed the area a pure white as the sacred energy was gradually absorbed.
The white light also began to fade, revealing a figure in a white robe at its center.
As the last trace of light vanished.
Tang Zheng appeared in the very center of the ritual, his entire body enveloped in a faint layer of light, which then completely submerged into his skin.
【Experience Bar: 1.5M/1.88M】
"The matter with the Theocracy is settled for now."
Tang Zheng felt his entire body suffused with sacred energy, a cozy warmth spreading through him, and couldn't help but stretch his back.
Having spent nearly ten days in the Theocracy, he had missed out on collecting over fifteen million experience. Now that he was back in the hills, his first order of business was naturally to collect that experience.
"Zesshi Zetsumei should be furious right now. But the ones who should be worried are the people from the Black Scripture. She'll probably take it out on them."
Tang Zheng let out a soft chuckle as he recalled his actions when leaving the Theocracy.
After the three parties confirmed their future plans.
There was no reason for Tang Zheng and the Holy Kingdom to stay any longer, so they planned to leave the Theocracy the next day.
But then.
Zesshi Zetsumei suddenly sought him out, her intentions rather domineering.
"Your new toy is quite good. Leave it in the Theocracy."
"I can't do that."
"Do you think a weakling like you can escape from right under my nose?"
"Alright. May I ask, do you know the ability of this feather necklace?"
"That magic item? I think it's the item the golden-haired one used before. What was its ability again..."
Hearing this, Tang Zheng silently put on the *Shilmey's Messenger* and activated the item's ability.
A flash of light!
A man-high bronze feather appeared first, then transformed into a Flame Archangel, and Tang Zheng's figure vanished before Zesshi Zetsumei's eyes.
End of flashback.
"The intention of those cardinals in gifting me this magic item was likely based on considerations for my safety."
Tang Zheng lowered his head, reached up to take off the bronze feather necklace, and the corner of his mouth curled into a barely perceptible smirk.
"In terms of transportation, it can't compare to true *Teleportation* magic, and it also consumes magic power. For me, it's better than nothing.
"But for my identity as the adventurer 'Tang', this item is quite good."
The Holy Kingdom and the Slane Theocracy should be focusing most of their energy on the "Divine Plan" from now on!
I wonder what expressions Remedios and the others will have when they return to the Holy Kingdom, after their Holy Princess mysteriously obtains such an astonishing gain?
"As the ruler of a nation, she'll have to show some form of gratitude."
Tang Zheng was rather looking forward to it.
Around 5,000 angels per year is a formidable force for the human nations, but for Tang Zheng, it's far from enough.
"One of the gains from this trip to the Slane Theocracy is a more comprehensive understanding of the 'Integration Potion'."
"The Divine Plan?"
A sharp glint flickered in Tang Zheng's eyes.
The true core of this plan isn't the several thousand low-tier angels and the handful of mid-tier angels that the Holy Kingdom and the Slane Theocracy are creating.
Don't forget!
The tenth-tier magic, *Armageddon (Good)*.
He needed to further research and determine the application of the *Frogman's Egg - Artificial Monster*.
"I feel like there's still a huge pile of things to arrange."
"The use of the *Frogman's Egg - Artificial Monster* and neutral angels."
"The advancement plan over at Despair Valley."
"The next arrangements for the Kingdom, and so on."
Tang Zheng breathed in the fresh air of the valley, feeling a headache coming on as he thought about the numerous things he needed to arrange.
But compared to all that.
The most important things were still class building and leveling up!
He summoned his status panel.
"The *Sword Saint* class has been removed. Next, I should further refine the class build for the True Dragon Lord system."
Tang Zheng's face was contemplative. He then chanted in a low voice, "Teleportation."
Swish!
The air seemed to contract, and his figure vanished along with it.
——Touv Great Forest.
The outskirts.
Tall, lush trees, their branches and leaves intertwined to form a continuous canopy. As far as the eye could see, only a deep sea of forest entered one's vision.
Rustle, rustle!
Five figures of varying builds trod on the rotten leaves and dense weeds on the ground, advancing slowly toward the depths of the Great Forest of Tob.
All kinds of insect chirping and bird calls surged from all directions, forming a dense wave of sound that vibrated the air, carrying a clamorous and terrifying quality.
Swoosh!
A silvery, sharp dagger laced with blood-red streaks cut through the air, slicing open the shrubs and weeds blocking the path ahead.
"Look what I found." Tia stepped on the weeds in front of her, crouched down, and carefully plucked out a short herb.
Tina glanced over, continuing to watch their surroundings vigilantly. She said flatly, "Enge Herb, a specialty of the Touv Great Forest."
"A core medicinal material for making healing potions. The price is between 5 to 7 silver coins."
"A good harvest."
Tia expressionlessly placed the herb carefully into the magic leather belt at her waist, a trace of satisfaction showing in her eyes.
"As expected of the resource-rich Touv Great Forest. The harvest from herbs alone might make up a fifth of our commission this time."
*Clank, clank~*
The parts of her hard armor scraped together, making a faint clanking sound.
Gagaran, dressed in red armament and carrying a frightening iron hammer on her shoulders, followed closely behind. "You two, don't forget this task."
"Alright, alright."
Tia stood up and, with Tina, one on the left and one on the right, continued to scout ahead with daggers in hand. She said casually, "This is an unexpected bonus from the mission. There's no reason to refuse it."
"At least for now, there's nothing unusual about the Touv Great Forest."
"We should still be cautious," came a cool, smiling voice.
Lakyus and Evileye were at the rear.
At this moment!
Lakyus was clad in full-body armor constructed of gold and platinum, with decorations of unicorns carved all over it. This was a piece of magic armor named *Purity of White Snow*.
Over her back, she wore a simple cloak, a magic item named *Rat Speed Cloak*.
Such an outfit clearly demonstrated Lakyus's serious attitude.
Aside from Evileye, who appeared relaxed, the entire Blue Rose team was in full gear!
After all!
This was the Touv Great Forest, fraught with crisis, where they could encounter any form of danger.
"According to previous investigations, this area should be the territory of the Wise King of the Forest. The Adventurer's Guild doesn't have any specific information on this magical beast."
Gagaran's sharp gaze swept over the dark corners of the forest from time to time as she spoke in a steady voice.
"In terms of power, it has completely reached the standard of an Adamantite-rank adventurer. We really need to be careful."
Evileye, wrapped in a black robe, followed behind the group with light steps. The mask on her face, inlaid with a ruby, tilted up slightly as she suddenly warned, "Something's coming."
