Sean flicked the red crystal in his hand, then pouted slightly.

Just now, after absorbing Marz's will, he actually received a system prompt asking him if he wanted to extract Marz's soul. It was precisely because of this that Sean suddenly realized that his current bloodline power seemed to have entered the third stage of the state.

[Bloodline: Hunting Spirit (Children of the World - Taboo), all attributes +30.] The current Bloodline Cheng dù: Brand (Phase 3), has activated two bloodline talents, and has obtained the soul of the bloodline. 】

[Bloodline Talent: True Eye (No history hidden under time can escape your eyes.] ）】

[Bloodline Talent: Hunting Brand (The soul of any creature you kill will become your spoils.] ）】

[Bloodline Soul: Soul Hunter (Whenever you activate Soul Hunting, your attack will bring soul damage to the opponent, the duration of the effect will consume your mental power, and you will not be able to maintain the soul of the Soul Hunter state when your mental power is insufficient.) ）】

He was curious to know what would happen to the soul of Essence Martz, but unfortunately, he could not satisfy this idea for the time being. Because Marz's soul cannot be erased now, after all, as the main god of the church, although Marz is now trapped in the crystal stone, his faith has not collapsed, and all believers in the Church of the God of War can still gain strength from here.

However, if Marz is erased, it is true that its related priesthood and godhead can be harvested, but relatively, not to mention that the entire Church of the God of War will fall apart because of this, and all believers who believe in Marz will lose these powers. Even Sean has now seized Marz's godhead and priesthood. He also had to start from scratch and train his own followers. Then the fire of God is lit, and then the kingdom of God is raised, repeating the qiē that Marz did in that year.

This is not the value and meaning of a god stealer.

The reason why a God Stealer is a God Stealer. It is because they can directly steal the qiē that the gods have, without having to re-experience the path to becoming gods.

In addition to this concern, there is another reason why Sean does not want to erase Marz's soul. That is, the reason why the Northern Duchy Federation was able to become a behemoth to compete with the surrounding empires was precisely because of the existence of the God of War Church and the God of War rituals. Once Marz falls, along with the disintegration of the Church of the God of War, the Northern Duchy Federation will also fall apart, completely losing the foundation to compete with the two surrounding empires.

This is very detrimental to Sean's next plans, and it will also drag Emily into another quagmire. That's not what Sean wants.

"Solved?" Andrew sat directly above the head of the statue of Marz, his feet dangling in the air.

"Yes." Sean nodded, "It's a lot easier than I thought." ”

"It's just that the strength has improved." Andrew shrugged his shoulders, "When your strength reaches a certain level, you will find that this world is nothing more than that. A lot of things that you didn't understand before, or didn't understand, couldn't see, weren't really that difficult, just because you were in them. So you can't discover the mystery. One day, you have stepped out of this circle, and when you look back, you will find how naïve you were at the beginning. ”

"The same is true for the improvement of strength?" Sean asked.

"Yes." Andrew nodded. Then he smiled slightly, "You and I, although we are also people who have fallen into a foreign land. But we are still in two worlds. …… You are responsible for your territory, your followers, and even your people. …… But I don't. So a lot of times I can do it more freely. …… Of course. In the future, when your strength is strong enough to stand at the top of this world. You can too, but at least not now. ”

Sean always felt that Andrew's words seemed to mean something else. But as Andrew said, he is in this circle now, so even with Andrew's suggestion, he still can't see through the fog. However, Andrew's words are not completely meaningless, at least they make Sean feel like a beacon, and he suddenly realizes where he is headed.

He doesn't have a small team like Andrew, and even everyone in the team has the ability to fight against the sky, and he can do whatever he wants.

He had his followers to take care of, even his people, his friends - and he had treated them as his family for a long time, so he had to be accountable to them. He wants to become stronger, but this strength is not the strength of himself alone, but the strength of the entire force, including his followers, his territory, and so on.

Therefore, the strength of the collective and the enhancement of strength are the direction he wants to move forward in the future.

"You seem to have figured something out." Andrew smiled.

"Sort of." Sean also smiled and nodded, "Speaking of which, I really appreciate you. …… I wouldn't even be where I am today without you. ”

"We're fellow villagers." Andrew smiled, "I was an orphan, and I didn't have many friends when I was a child, and I have always lived with my master in the deep mountains and old forests, and I have lived like this for sixteen years. It wasn't until later that my master said that I should go out for a walk and practice, and then I made my first friend in life. …… It's just that I didn't expect that after that, I suddenly came to another world inexplicably. ”

"I'm an orphan too." Sean sat next to Andrew, then said with a smile, "But I have an adoptive father and a ...... The titular elder brother. They were really nice to me, but my adoptive father was a little more old-fashioned and strict, but I knew that I was just an orphan and couldn't cause trouble for my adoptive father. …… To be honest, when I first came to this world, I wanted to go back, but now I ......"

"Don't want to go back?" Andrew asked, tilting his head.

"Sort of." Sean smiled, "And one of the things my adoptive father said to me most often was that people have to learn to be responsible. I just feel like I have my own life and responsibilities in this world now. If I had left all of this behind and chosen to go back, my adoptive father would have been very disappointed. Because this kind of behavior of mine is really very irresponsible. ”

"Everybody will have everybody's trajectory in life." Andrew said softly, his voice tinged with nostalgia. "I also miss my master, and I would even love to go back and meet my master. …… However, I can't leave my companions behind, I've been through so much with them, and I think they will be very sad and sad to leave like this. And I don't want to make them sad. ”

"Understandable." Sean nodded, "However, if your master knew that you had become so strong. Even better than him......"

Before Sean could finish speaking, Andrew shook his head and interrupted Sean: "It's impossible. …… Even now, to be honest, I'm not sure I'll be able to beat my master. You don't know how rebellious he is, my master has always said that I am a heavenly spirit body, and it is easy to provoke some things that are not very clean, once I saw a very scary guy who wanted my life, but my master just stood in front of me, and the ghost turned into ashes. That domineering ......"

"You're talking about fiction, right!?" Sean looked incredulous.

"There's so much more on Earth that you don't know." Andrew pursed his lips, "A set of boxing techniques that my master casually taught me to strengthen my body can make me win many international martial arts league championships." Even just teaching me a few punching routines was enough for me to make a name for myself in the underworld. Don't underestimate the Earth, it's a truly magical country. ”

"Okay." Sean was a little unsure of what to say.

In Sean's impression, the earth is the environment that has been polluted. And then the technologically advanced world. As for the doctrine of demons and monsters, in Sean's opinion, they are just some comics, novels and other stories.

But that's the old idea.

Right now. After experiencing the so-called time travel firsthand, Sean has a sense of awe about many things. He guessed. Probably because he had never been in that circle, he couldn't understand what life on Earth was like as Andrew was talking about. Just as in this world, the commoners simply could not understand what the life of the nobility was like, simply because they had never entered the circle.

"You're the first of my kind I've met in a foreign land." Andrew smiled and said, "So I'm glad I was able to help you." ”

"So are you." Sean smiled, "Unfortunately, I can't help you with anything." ”

"No, you've helped enough." Andrew reached out and patted Sean on the shoulder, "A lot of things have already been moved before you knew it, but you didn't know it." …… In terms of quality, I think I owe you more. ”

"I don't feel that way." Sean smiled, he looked at Andrew very sincerely, and then said with a serious face: "Thank you, Andrew." ”

Andrew responded very seriously and solemnly, "Thank you too, Sean. ”

Neither of them said what they were thanking for, but they had a tacit understanding with each other and knew what the other party wanted to thank.

Soon, however, this solemn atmosphere was completely broken: after looking at each other for a while, they laughed heartily at the same time. At this moment, both of them have the playful mentality and sense of companionship that belong to the same earthlings. Perhaps for Andrew and Sean, they never wanted to get any benefits from each other, but just wanted to help their fellow villagers in this other world.

Because for them, they are alone with each other.

And only they know that they don't actually belong to this world. It's just that they also know very well that they will never be able to return to Earth and return to the real world that belongs to them. So both Sean and Andrew actually already have another "home", but Andrew's home is not here, so he needs to find a way home.

In this regard, Sean is much luckier than Andrew.

Of course, whether it's Andrew or Sean, they are not alone.

Because there are many companions and friends around them, and even because there are enemies that belong to them, they are not destined to be alone, and life in this other world is not destined to be boring. Especially at this moment, Sean suddenly understood why Gybril had become an observer and wanted to leave this dimensional world.

"I don't know what you're going to do with this stone, but all I can say is, don't imprison yourself." Andrew glanced at Emily, who was still twitching on the ground, and then said lightly, "There is a lot of room for development in this plane, so becoming a god is not a good choice." ”

"I see." Sean nodded, and his gaze couldn't help but fall on Emily.

The awakening process stimulated by the blood requires Emily to survive on her own, and no one else can give any help at all. As for how far Emily's bloodline can be awakened, it depends on Emily's own will and endurance, but judging from the current situation, Emily's bloodline awakening effect may be unprecedentedly beneficial.

Thinking of this, Sean suddenly knew how to make good use of the divine stone in his hand.

When Marts's will is imprisoned in the crystal, Marts in the kingdom of God becomes a sculpture - to put it simply, Martz has not fallen, his kingdom still exists, and his body is still in the kingdom of God, and it is very safe. Even the believers of Marz can still draw strength from Marz, and the power of faith formed by the sincere prayers of the believers will continue to be condensed into the hands of Marz.

It can be said that this qiē is no different from before.

But it can also be said that this qiē is slightly different from the previous one.

The difference is that the current Marz is unable to descend from the gods and communicate with the believers. The prayers of all believers will be cut off and will no longer reach the ears of Marz, so that he will no longer know who his devout followers are and who are false believers. Moreover, the power of faith generated by the believers will not be concentrated in the hands of Marz, but in Sean's divine stone crystal.

That is, no one will ever know what happened to Marz.

This kind of thing naturally has pros and cons. The advantage is that no one will ever know the existence of the God Stealer. The disadvantage is that the gods of a church have not performed miracles or brushed up on a sense of existence for too long, which will have a certain impact on the cohesion and faith of a church.

However, for this point, Sean has naturally already thought of a strategy to deal with it.

As he said before, he was no joke when he asked Emily "Are you ready to become a god?"

Sean really wants to make Emily the god of war.

Or rather, God of War Agent. (To be continued......)
