As he was thinking, he had already arrived at the Direct Vision Branch Association.

Lin Xun first headed to the administration building where the President worked. He carefully searched through the administration building and sure enough found the warehouse where spell materials were stored.

Using these spell materials to charge the Knowledge Sea Magic Formation was enough to fill the formation to full capacity more than ten times over.

Now that he had become the highest leader of the Branch Association, Lin Xun could issue orders from the President’s office to control the entire Direct Vision Branch Association.

The operational command options given by the game were not many. Compared to the management options from becoming the Ogiwara Clan Head in the evil god chapter, there were far fewer. After a round of operations, he could only barely maintain the Association’s normal functioning.

Refilling the magic formation’s reserve energy was quite laborious, and the several Sages of the Branch Association had all been personally sent to heaven by him. The remaining scholars were not strong enough, so Lin Xun could only personally take the field and work using the Great Sage shell.

After toiling for most of the day, he finally raised the Knowledge Sea Magic Formation reserve energy from zero to full.

“The mountain-guarding grand formation is ready. This way, even if we go to war with the Multivision Association, as long as I lure them to the Direct Vision Association, no matter how many enemies there are, I can remain invincible… uh, unless there are enemies above the demi-god level.”

After finishing with the magic formation, Lin Xun went to the ground floor of the administration building to look for the Mana Source Stone.

Now that he had the Mana Source Stone Essence, ownership of this Mighty Mage power bank belonged to him.

But after studying it for a while, he discovered that this thing seemed to count as a type of architectural existence, a special piece of base infrastructure, and could not be stored in the Inventory.

If he wanted to restore mana, he would have to deliberately return to the Direct Vision Association and go over to the Mana Source Stone to meditate beside it.

At the location of the battle against the evil star god, the magic formation that the Sages and Great Sage had carved still remained, used to analyze and reverse-deduce the hidden coordinates of the evil star god.

However, having demi-gods deduce the hidden coordinates of a god was originally a difficult project of using the small to contest the great.

Even with five Sages and one Great Sage, the time needed for analysis and reverse deduction had to be measured in years, and the coordinates deduced might not even be correct.

Now that only the Great Sage’s computational power was left, trying to deduce the hidden coordinates, according to the game’s prompt, could only be described as taking an indefinitely long time.

“According to the shell memories, if this were the real Great Sage operating it, they would normally carve the magic formation first, then wait for a Prophet or Great Prophet from the Imperial Capital to assist. Those top-tier Mighty Mages would be the ones to analyze the coordinates…”

Thinking of this, Lin Xun could not help but feel a chill in his heart. When fighting the evil star god earlier, the Great Sage had temporarily summoned a Prophet to join the battle.

The Imperial Capital would definitely already know about the descent of the evil god. Based on the contents of the Great Prophet’s Book of Prophecy, it would not be hard to guess that the True God’s Envoy had already arrived at the Direct Vision Branch Association.

Even taking a step back, even if the Imperial Capital did not know, they would still send powerful scholars to the Branch Association in order to analyze the evil star god’s coordinates…

“Damn it. I originally thought the heavens were high and the emperor was far away, and that I could rely on the Great Sage identity to throw my weight around here.”

“Now it seems the Direct Vision Branch Association might be even more dangerous than the Multivision Association. It is entirely possible that right this moment, the Prophets and Great Prophets of the Direct Vision School are already on their way here.”

Thinking of this, Lin Xun decided to immediately set out for the Multivision Association.

But before that, he had one more thing to do.

He completely looted the warehouse storing spell materials, sweeping all the precious Materials into his own pocket, firmly refusing to leave the enemy a single grain of food.

After looting the material warehouse, he moved on to ransacking the storerooms of the various Sages and the Great Sage. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Each storeroom held many collected items, but the number of useful items, that is, items that could actually go into the Inventory, was not large.

Most of them were treasure items intended to be sold for money.

Treasures in the game were also divided into grades. Low grade treasures could be exchanged for Spirit Essence at merchants or through the Book of Trade, while high grade treasures, in addition to being exchanged for Spirit Essence, could be gifted to certain story characters to raise favorability.

Most of the items in the storerooms were low grade treasures, while only the Great Sage and yellow-haired Osborn had any high grade treasures in their collections.

A rough estimate showed that the profits from this round of looting were at least seven or eight million Spirit Essence.

After finishing his sweep of the valuable items, Lin Xun thought for a moment, but did not dig back out the spell materials he had already used to refill the Knowledge Sea Magic Formation.

He still had the thought that if the people from the Imperial Capital did not arrive too quickly, he might still be able to use this magic formation against his enemies…

After stashing away all materials that could be looted, Lin Xun hoisted the painting Starlight Cage onto his shoulder and headed for the Coleman Workshop.

[…]

[Coleman does not remember who you are when it sees you again, as if the Sages of the Direct Vision School have erased its memories of your appearance.]

[The Sages of the School have not only erased Coleman’s memories. All witnesses who had been in the workshop at that time have also forgotten your existence.]

[You have no choice but to reveal your identity as the True God’s Envoy to Coleman once more…]

[Coleman is overjoyed, the wrinkles all over its face squeezing together. It shouts in fanatical excitement that, honored True God’s Envoy, your arrival is the honor of the Coleman Workshop and even more so its greatest honor!]

[It has been waiting for your arrival for far too long…]

[The only reason it has stayed in the auxiliary capital Notos instead of going to the Imperial Capital is because the Great Prophet foretold long ago that it would meet the Envoy sent by the great true Lord here in the workshop…]

[…]

Lin Xun felt that these words were strangely familiar, giving him a sense of deja vu, like life being nothing more than the first meeting.

[…]

[Today, at this very moment, you, the True God’s Envoy, have finally come!]

[Coleman gazes at you with fanatical eyes, making you feel uncomfortable all over. It is waiting for the True God’s Envoy to grant it a great revelation.]

[So long as it can receive enlightenment from the True God’s Envoy, it will be able to break through the limits of its predecessors, complete the mission bestowed by the true Lord, and go toward the end of its life without regrets…]

Lin Xun took a deep breath, only hating that this cursed game did not come with a skip cutscene option.
