Chapter 185: Exploring the Vault, A hidden path that leads to an ancient corpse! Reincarnation of a God? Lyra the angel’s assumptions

For a split moment, he saw Sylvia descend from a private jet in the central plains with her vampire subordinates.

However, immediately after, the connection cut off.

"Hm?" Caelus frowned.

Why did he see through Sylvia’s vision just now?

He knew blood-bonds could share visions, but Sylvia hadn’t precisely tapped into that power yet.

Could it be she was bored in her jet and decided to practice it?

Whatever it was. Caelus decided to message her, asking if she was okay.

With that done, he put his attention back to the vault.

The vault was sealed by, surprisingly, a lock rune.

This rune was tricky. One wrong move and the rune would detonate and kill you.

And the power it emitted was no joke.

However, to unseal a lock rune, all one had to do was trace the rune using the pen and then make some adjustments in its energy flow. This lock rune was all over the door, so the flow was big. Cutting off each branch one by one using the pen would unlock the door.

Or just place your hands in the center of the door, if you were the owner.

But there was also a third option.

Caelus lightly tapped on the door.

He pushed all his combat score into his forefinger and touched it.

The following moment, the door crumbled into dust without even giving the lock rune the chance to explode.

Caelus then entered the vault, and what he saw made his eyes glitter like stars.

If this was an ancient fantasy world, then this vault would be filled with gold.

However, the place here instead had Origin Loader Chips all around.

And for a modern man from the Azure Origin planet, this was more valuable than gold.

"This is all mine now." Caelus let out a laugh as he began exploring.

Most of the things here were items, such as utility items and other common support, defense and offensive items.

He didn’t look through all of them at once. Because he saw a pillar, and on top of that pillar was a card that was heavily guarded with lasers. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Caelus, having seen it before, recognized it at one glance!

"Is that a value changer card?!"

He immediately walked over.

He casually swept his telekinesis force onto the lasers, and the compartment below the pillar that held the device powering the lasers got destroyed.

He took the value changer card into his hands.

[Value Changer Card (???,???)]

Caelus decided to use Duplication on it immediately.

[Ding!]

[10x Duplication Successful]

[You’ve obtained 10x Value Changer Card]

"Damn..." Caelus became excited.

For once, he finally managed to duplicate it!

Isn’t that just the best?

He could now change the Body Enhancement talent’s value of increasing combat score with rank into permanent combat score instead!

Not only that, he could also make changes to Sylvia’s assault rifle so she could use her mana buff, Multi-Shot, properly.

He could also use it on Lightning Singularity.

Lightning Singularity was being rather limited right now, only hitting at +1 combat score of its own rank. But if he changed it to damage, then it would be useful.

With that kept away, he continued walking forward, and there it was, a level card!

"What the hell. Why are they keepsaking these?" Caelus was speechless.

It wasn’t just that. There was an ascension token that had been put behind tight security like it was the most important thing in here.

But it would make sense. These were extremely rare and others didn’t get it easily like how he did.

He took it in as well and continued walking in. Just then, he paused.

He felt a strong fluctuation coming from the side of the wall.

"???" Caelus tilted his head. There was nothing here.

But...

He went forward and lightly tapped it, and the wall crumbled. Revealing a hidden pathway.

"Interesting." Caelus walked right into the hidden pathway with telekinesis activated. If there was any hidden trap, it would deflect it, and if there was anything in the floor below that made him fall, he would just float.

However, contrary to his belief, there was nothing there. He swiftly made it to the other side and froze when he saw an altar, and on that altar, a huge corpse.

Central Plains, Headquarters of the Holy Church.

Lyra the angel, Sister Marie, the burly guy Stephen, all sat in the same room.

With them was Orion Vance, the Holy King, the top voted candidate for the king’s candidate.

"Caelus Kross is Player 555?" Stephen’s face was ugly.

He still vividly remembered visiting his place a few days ago, after the Fortis city incident, to ask him to join their ranks. He had made them leave, saying he wouldn’t join. It was clear that he was already in another faction.

They had plotted to eliminate him before he reached gold or crown, but he was already capable of defeating a being at the gold rank!

"Player 555." Orion Vance was a blonde man with short hair and a determined look on his face.

"What do we do, Miss Lyra?" Everyone turned towards the supernatural being in the room.

Lyra was staring intently at the display in front of her.

With each passing moment, every news outlet, every media, they were all covering Player 555, or rather Caelus Kross. By now, his past background had also been dug up.

One of the titles read, "Reincarnation of a God? Player 555 that reached Gold III in a month."

Looking at the news alone made Lyra uncomfortable.

By now it was clear that this Player 555 was not normal.

He must be a former god. The title might have some truth to it.

The first gods birthed by the enders were all dead, but they were slowly resurrecting. That was what her sister, who was in a far away domain, had told her.

She didn’t have any memories of how she came here. She only vividly remembered that if she learnt the truth of this world, she would be rejected, never able to enter this place again.

Hence, she only remembered some details, and one of them was her quest to convert planets into the Boundless Light Faction.

She had already been successful.

"But if this man is a god, then he must belong to a different faction." She felt a sense of danger.

She had already decided on what to do with him.

Elimination...!

Just then, a man appeared in the room, panting.

"Everyone. King Azula is in the central plains, he is confronting Leonard and His Daughter."

"Orion’s Young Brother is also there."

Everyone’s expression changed when they heard this.

Whrmm!

Energy hummed through the hidden area inside the royal vault.

Caelus stood in front of a massive corpse. The corpse of a massive dragon.
