Chapter 679: Chapter 395: Humanity Must Triumph_2

A Prophet said, "Exactly, otherwise, given the depth of the Royal City Sewer, we would never find him."

"The Judgers have already suffered considerable losses. Judgment Chief Lucian expended so much effort and still failed to locate them."

Meredith turned her head and said gently, "Little Rod, you may go back now. Thank you for your help. When we are ready or need your assistance again, we will come to find you."

Rod asked with some concern, "Do you have a way to penetrate the concealment of the Book of Destiny?"

Meredith nodded, "Of course, it is just a Demi Divine Artifact, whereas the White Tower itself is a true Divine Artifact."

An apprentice added, "Of the Unique level."

Only then did Rod feel at ease. Only by completely exterminating these vermin could he focus entirely on the invasion of the Dream Realm and ensure the faster and more stable development of Trolian.

After returning to the Fire Hall, Rod had intended to rest for a while to completely eliminate the after-effects of the Giant God Power.

He used it for less than half a second in the Dream Realm, but the weak state clung to him like a chronic disease of the bones. In this state, Rod felt extremely tired doing anything, though he could still fight and his fighting power was unaffected. Yet, he always felt like he was carrying a heavy burden in his mind.

The Book of Knowledge told him this was a semi-weak state. If he had used the power for a longer duration, he would have entered a total weak state. At that time, his soul would become extremely vulnerable, unable to muster Spiritual Energy, unable to use the characteristic abilities of the soul, unable to withstand any shocks against the soul.

Therefore, when using Giant God Power, one must ensure they can kill the enemy, or have companions nearby.

Otherwise, powerless to resist, he could only be killed.

However, as soon as Rod returned to the Fireplace Area, the flame emblem on his collar boiled up, with surging fire light shining in all directions. This indicated not only his promotion from the Second Level to the First Level combat sequence but also signified the high importance of this mission.

Rod’s heart sank. Just his luck, he had just overcome the invasion crisis, consumed a great deal of Spiritual Energy, and had not yet recovered from his weak state. His condition was bad.

And a mission of great importance to Trolian was bound to involve a lot of Divinity.

Rod was reluctant to let go of the substantial amount of Divinity he had gained from rescuing Star City, and he remembered it very clearly.

This near-fatal experience from the invasion left him still shaken, which made Rod even more concerned about acquiring every bit of Divinity.

How could he let such an opportunity pass?

Rod hesitated for a moment but decided to go see what the mission was first. Perhaps there was a way to take on the task and rest for a day too.

If it really didn’t work out, he would have to reluctantly give up.

Thinking this, Rod hurried to the inner hall of the Fire Hall.

The Inner Hall was at the very center of the Hall, a very large circular hall made of Red Stone, appearing heavy, solemn, and as hard as the foundation stone itself, symbolizing stability.

It also symbolized that the warriors who came here were the backbone of humanity, the core foundation of the superstructure.

When Rod arrived, he found that a large number of Second Level Combatants had already gathered.

They all wore the same red robes, the same double flame emblems, almost every one of them with a composed demeanor, wearing various powerful Spiritual equipment, holding or wearing significant Soul Weapons, each bearing a remarkable presence, clearly respectable fighters one would admire at first sight.

Only Rod stood out with his bare robe, carrying something resembling a dung fork on his back, an ordinary-looking sword at his waist, standing in the crowd attracting many eyes.

Rod heard someone whispering.

"Who is he?"

"He’s so young and already in the Inner Hall?"

"Rod? I don’t recognize him."

"Oh! The Black Bag of Rice!"

Rod’s face didn’t look too good. For the first time, he realized that his name was not well known here; instead, his moniker was more widely recognized.

He silently resolved that once the Dream Realm was fully restored, he would widely reveal its secrets and get rid of all these ridiculous nicknames.

He had to come up with a nickname that was both cool and impressive. Black Bag of Rice really had no presence and was counterproductive for boosting the morale of humanity.

The circular hall quickly filled with people. Rod glanced around and estimated there were roughly a hundred.

This was likely only part of the Second Level Combatants of the Trolian Security; many were still on missions or in rest.

Most here were between thirty and fifty years old. The younger ones were in the minority, and most of them were familiar faces, including the Great Sword Tai Luo, Undefeated Jessica, and the Shining Fei Xue, all part of the new stars.

Tai Luo, in particular, was boasting about Rod in the crowd, variously explaining his heroic deeds and the miracles he created.

This made many people pause in wonder, prompting continuous questions.

"Is that true?"

"Can that even happen?"

"A Starfire Series Fire Spark can do that?"

"If I had only his strength, I certainly couldn’t achieve such feats."

"Pfft! What kind of odd name is Fire Spark? Why have I never heard of it before?"

"I just spent a few months focused on combat, how does it feel like several years have passed?"

"The change is too great, I still can’t believe it. Our nation’s territory has nearly doubled."

"I can’t believe it either, it’s like waking up to so many new companions."
