Chapter 470: Chapter 11 Nata County_1

Maria, of course, would not possess the "storm" elemental power.

As Annan’s elder sister, her soul element was naturally also "frost."

But the Lady of the Storm originally didn’t need to burn her soul or refine the elements.

Her mission was to soothe that living storm.

The Lady of the Storm is the most special among the Tower’s Children.

Today, they are priestesses who worship the very concept of "storm" itself.

The elemental power surging within her could and would only be the storm element of Altas.

In the past, the mission of the Storm’s Tower was to suppress extreme weather phenomena—tornadoes, typhoons, tsunamis, thunderstorms... natural disasters that were difficult for humans to combat, only the purest power of "word-spirit" could confront them.

But after Altas began, the meaning of the Storm’s Tower changed.

Although it still inherited the oldest and most orthodox word-spirit spells... which is now the precursor to the Decree spells.

Yet now, each generation of the Lady of the Storm’s mission had turned into "absorbing and preserving that ever-expanding storm element."

Directly above the Storm’s Tower, there is now a spatial rift that leads straight to The Void World.

And the scattered elemental powers must be collected in order to ensure that the storm does not further erode reality. If the storm continues to expand, the rift will also keep growing.

The Lady of the Storm does not need to burn her own soul to slowly raise the level of exploitation for the storm element. She could even surpass the 100% limit and reach a higher realm... but it would also increasingly alienate the soul of the Lady of the Storm.

Until at last, the soul has grown to the extent that the body cannot contain it—then one can only die. After all, only a brain with intelligence can store the power of elements.

In order not to let the elemental power that overflows at the moment of their death further erode the present world, the Ladies of the Storm would even, at the critical point, throw themselves into the rift above, dying in The Void World.

This means there would be no remains.

This is also the responsibility of the Transcendent.

When selecting the Lady of the Storm, only girls with a sense of responsibility could be acknowledged.

And to solve this issue... not dying after bearing this power, the method is quite simple.

Such a high concentration of elemental power has already satisfied one of the conditions for the ascension ritual. As long as one can become a deity, become the "living pillar of the present world," one can fully control the concept of the storm and suppress this curse that has been passed down for centuries.

But the key point is... starting from the first daughter of the storm, the "Storm and Heart’s Canticle" has been lost.

The first daughter of the storm was a Transcendent who lived in the early stages of the Empire of Aesirland, during the middle part of the Third Era.

At the end of the Third Era, it still appeared a few times in a scattered fashion. At that time, there were still occasional historical records of powerhouses who possessed the "Storm and Heart’s Canticle."

After the end of the Third Era came those blank two hundred years, lacking any historical records.

Since the end of those two hundred years, it has never appeared again.

It’s as if it had vanished into thin air.

It indeed continues to exist in the present world—Prophet spells can confirm this. But its exact location has been lost, visible only to those who bear the storm element. Until someone qualified appears, the Fragments of Truth will not reveal themselves.

It’s even possible that it has been hidden by someone. As long as the holder has not died but is lingering somewhere after collecting it all, it is possible that the Book of Truth does not appear again.

But how has the holder lived for so long?

And why has the holder not ascended yet?

All of this remains a mystery.

Moreover, even the first daughter of the storm, who was almost an incarnation of the storm, failed to ascend... Could the other Ladies of the Storm, as her successors, really succeed in ascension using this Book of Truth?

But Maria is not afraid of such things.

She simply regretted... that she couldn’t obtain the Book of Truth.

When the unworthy were born, the Book of Truth would only circulate among different "seeds" in the form of fragments.

Even the birth of the qualified ones was not enough to make the Book of Truth immediately appear in its entirety—only to allow it to manifest.

The number of sacrifices also had to be sufficient.

Just like the sacrifices that give birth to "light" are "mirrors."

Because "Light is Born from the Mirror."

However, Maria did not know what the sacrifices that would give birth to the storm would be.

That was definitely a mystery hidden within the storm domain.

As the Lady of the Storm, Maria knew that the complete "Storm and Heart’s Canticle" comprised four pages. One of them was about the truth of wind, another was about the truth of thunder and lightning; the contents of the remaining two pages were unclear.

But even getting one or two pages would be good... Even if it were only one page, the purification ritual could barely be attempted.

It was better than waiting to die.

And when Annan reached his destination,

Meanwhile...

Delicious Wind Goose along with Defu, Andersen, and the Demon Teacher, four players and a cat, had also arrived in Nata County.

As the player who participated in the most missions, Delicious Wind Goose had successfully advanced to the silver rank. He was also the first among the players to reach the Warrior Class of the silver rank.

His personality, he did not prefer to choose some obscure, rare class.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have focused on choosing the Warrior Class.

In almost all games, warriors were the most common, the most straightforward class.

His pursuit was to excel in ordinary classes.

And being a Swordsmanship Instructor was not an easy advancement; thus, his advanced class could not possibly be too mundane.

Therefore, while Lin Yiyi, who was equally on the verge of leveling, was still struggling to gather gem shards, he had already completed his advancement.

Hence, Delicious Wind Goose’s advancement was also very straightforward.

His name was—Sword Saint.

The class could only evolve from a Swordsmanship Instructor and a Sword Dancer, assimilating the strengths of many and elevating swordsmanship to its limits.

The difference from the Swordsmanship Instructor was that Sword Saints couldn’t wear armor in battle. They could only wear the most common cloth garment, and they had to swear not to apply poison to their weapons or take on any other job.

In compensation, Sword Saints gained exceptionally agile movement and strong attack power—and the real secret was that Sword Saints could set two toggling actions for themselves. With these actions as a switch, they could temporarily transfer their strength to agility, or agility to strength, with the amount transferred at will. And this ability had no restrictions and could be used indefinitely.

Moreover, Sword Saints could accumulate an energy resource called "Qi" through meditation, allowing them to unleash powerful penetrating sword energy. The upper limit of Qi was related to perception; Sword Saints with a strong will could instantly exchange places with their own sword energy, with the frequency related to their willpower.

Strength and agility, perception, willpower. Four attributes were required, but there were only these three skills... beyond that, there were no other skills at all.

Without a doubt, it was a simple, unadorned yet powerful DPS class.

Combined with Andersen as the "Guardian," Defu who doubled as a hunter and thief in the form of Chocolate, and the Demon Teacher as a silver-rank Priest... the four of them formed a straightforward five-person team consisting of one tank, one healer, one hunter, one thief, and one DPS.

—Yes, a five-person team.

Only in this way could they effectively pioneer this currently known highest difficulty challenge...

The source of demon’s blood, Nata County.
