Chapter 848: Chapter 403: Star Realm Shift, The Undead Army’s Carpet-Style Search

[The ’Servant of God’ quietly waits for you to digest all this and then continues to speak. It understands the thoughts in your heart: you think it’s a betrayer who has stolen the True God’s authority, right?]

[To some extent, it indeed has been seizing authority, but this is not an act of betrayal; rather, it is a necessary means to awaken the ’Almighty True Knowledge.’]

[No one’s faith is more steadfast than its, nor does anyone long more for the awakening of ’Almighty True Knowledge.’]

[If you are still willing to trust it, why not hand over the ’Stars’ Chart’ you’ve obtained to contribute to the True God’s earlier awakening?]

[Of course, if you still have doubts about it, then it will help you leave the ’Temple of Knowledge,’ and you can make your decision after you have thought it through. There is no rush.]

[Compared to the countless eons of silent waiting and the once every twenty-five years reunion, it is not anxious about this brief moment of time...]

Lin Xun’s expression was solemn.

He had specifically refrained from piecing together the two ’incomplete Stars’ Charts’ to prevent the Knowledge god servant from sensing them and thus summoning him for a meeting.

Unexpectedly, such a tactic still did not escape the eyes of the Knowledge god servant.

[The ’Servant of God’ looks sincere, the light in its eyes clear and open...]

[Knowing the human heart is inscrutable, Apostle, how will you choose?]

[Do you decide to trust the ’Servant of God,’ hand over the ’Stars’ Chart’ decisively, and receive the reward of the ’Book of the Favored’ once again?]

[Or do you insist the ’Servant of God’ is a heretic who has betrayed the faith and demand to leave the ’Temple of Knowledge’ immediately?]

Humans are strange creatures; once they suspect that someone bears ill will and has an ulterior nefarious purpose, even if that person appears utterly sincere, it cannot dispel the suspicions in their hearts.

Not only can they not dispel their doubts, but they become even more suspicious.

Moreover, in the Apocalypse World of the Underworld Game, betrayal and defection are as common as eating and drinking...

The more Lin Xun looked at the Knowledge god servant, the less he believed that the old man was a good person.

As a devout follower of Omniscience, is there any need to ask which option he should choose?

He resolutely pressed the first option and handed over the Stars’ Chart in exchange for the reward.

[You take out the two ’incomplete Stars’ Charts’ and present them to the ’Servant of God.’ You do not say anything more; your actions prove that you are still willing to trust it.]

[The ’Servant of God’ smiles and takes them, looking at you with increasingly affectionate eyes.]

[It takes out a thick book and hands it to you; a book you’re very familiar with, the ’Book of the Favored’ granted to the devout followers.]

[The pages record numerous spoils of war captured by the ’Almighty True Knowledge’ during the divine wars, with each page documenting an artifact.]

[You have only one chance to randomly flip through the book, and whatever artifact you get depends on your level of devoutness in your faith.]

[Do you wish to open the ’Book of the Favored’ to claim your reward?]

Lin Xun did not choose the first option out of shortsighted greed for immediate rewards, overlooking the more distant goals.

On the contrary, his decision was made to better facilitate his plans moving forward.

He had not forgotten the most important goal of entering the Omniscient World again.

To usurp authority... What Lin Xun needed was the ability to usurp authority!

No matter whether the Knowledge god servant was a servant with steadfast faith, or an enemy who betrayed Omniscience, it wouldn’t interfere with Lin Xun’s plan to gain that ability from it.

Even if the Knowledge god servant truly was a thief snatching authority, it would be even more advantageous for him.

[You touch the thick cover of the book, not opening the ’Book of the Favored’, but instead you begin to speak to the ’Servant of God’...]

[The enemies you face, the Stars Evil God and their secret backers, the ’Polar Star Association,’ are extremely powerful.]

[You need the ’Servant of God’s’ assistance, perhaps even the authority left by the ’Almighty True Knowledge’ to wipe out the ’Polar Star Association’ and obtain more hidden coordinates of the Stars Evil God.]

[Your eyes are fervent as you gaze at the ’Servant of God,’ making a tentative probe.]

[The ’Servant of God’ maintains its smile and speaks slowly; the authority of the gods... You are already carrying the authority of a certain Main God, and though this authority is far from as mighty as the True God’s, it holds immeasurable power.]

[Instead of seeking its help, why not look at your own potential? You are the chosen one of the True God, you will not be inferior to anyone...]

[The ’Servant of God’ gestures for you to open the ’Book of the Favored’ and receive the reward you deserve.]

[Do you wish to open the ’Book of the Favored’?]

This situation is within your expectations; the Knowledge god servant certainly would not so readily teach you how to usurp authority.

Lin Xun is not in a hurry, as the Chapter has just begun, and he has ample opportunities.

[You pull out an ancient, hook-shaped jade exuding great luck, and pray earnestly...]

[The ’Servant of God’ turns a blind eye to the ’Sakurafall Hassaka Kyo curve jade’ in your hand, allowing you to perform a luck-enhancing ritual before drawing the reward.]

[You expended 13 points of Luck Value from the ’Sakurafall Hassaka Kyo curve jade,’ slightly increasing your luck attribute!]

After more than a week of recovery, the Luck Value of the fate-altering artifact had fully replenished.

However, this time, it seemed that Lin Xun’s luck was not too favourable.

He continually used the fate-altering artifact, attempting several times, but not once did he roll a Luck Value higher than 13 points.

Lin Xun asks the Knowledge god servant if he could save his drawing opportunity for next time.

[The ’Servant of God’ smiles and tells you that although it has never seen the unusual gem in your hand, it can sense a very slight hint of the authority’s power within it.]
