NOVEL NEXT Chapter 776: -24- Blood Secret Book
"True Ancestor, have you... found those Divine Power items?" asked the Great Prophet Margo, both reverently and curiously.
Charlotte did not answer directly, but instead picked up the crimson book she held.
"This... this is..."
Margo's gaze sharpened.
"This is something that fell from a monster I defeated yesterday, a Divine Artifact in the making," Charlotte said.
As she spoke, she gently opened the book.
Charlotte lightly tore off a page, and a crimson radiance burst forth instantly.
In the astonished gaze of the Great Prophet, the torn page suddenly transformed into a phantom orb of light.
That light orb was intangible and elusive, with the faint shadow of a phantom statue behind it.
The phantom was vague and fleeting, but the Great Prophet Margo quickly recognized it—it was one of the Divine Power items she had offered as a sacrifice for the God Ascension ritual.
Her eyes widened in shock:
"Is... is it this book? These Divine Objects that were sacrificed, have they been refined into this book?!"
Charlotte nodded slightly:
"Indeed."
"Although Royena's God Ascension ritual failed, it was not entirely fruitless; the result... lies in this Blood Secret Book."
"If I am not mistaken, Her original plan was probably not to ascend directly, but to refine an Artifact that could suppress the Curse Power... and use this Divine Artifact as an aid in Her Ascension."
"Of course... She ultimately failed, and the 'Artifact' She refined was preserved in this form of a semi-finished product."
Great Prophet Margo's mind stirred:
"So... so all those Divine Power items haven't disappeared, but have merged together, and their power has entered into this book?"
Charlotte nodded:
"One could say that."
After speaking, she tore off another page from the book, and another burst of crimson radiance appeared, with another phantom emerging in her hand:
"These items... were indeed damaged, yet, their source of power did not vanish but reverted to its original form, or rather, the form of Divine Power."
"This Blood Secret Book... is composed of such Divine Power."
Charlotte's hand burst with radiance again after speaking.
The crimson Blood Secret Book suddenly shattered, transforming into various ethereal pages that continuously morphed, eventually forming several different shapes of ethereal "Divine Objects."
They revolved around Charlotte ceaselessly, and the Curse Pages and Faceless Divine Statue controlled by the Harcos Clan were also strikingly present.
Not only that, besides the Curse Book and Faceless Divine Statue, there were also three Divine Power items emitting a dark red glow.
These three Divine Power items looked much more solid than the others; they were a cloak, a rose badge, and a gem.
"This... this is... Her Majesty's three Divine Artifacts!"
Great Prophet Margo's eyes widened in an instant.
Speaking, she appeared to realize something and murmured to herself:
"No wonder I could not find them... So they were also used as ritual items by Her Majesty? They... were they also damaged?"
Charlotte nodded:
"Correct, all of Royena's Divine Artifacts, as well as all the Divine Power items you collected, were all damaged, or rather... forged."
After speaking, she looked at the Great Prophet Margo:
"So... there is no need to search for those Divine Power items anymore."
"All the Divine Power items are actually here."
Finally, Great Prophet Margo realized.
She looked at the different Divine Power orbs in Charlotte's hands and couldn't help asking:
"True Ancestor... you mentioned that the Artifact is in the making, does that mean... Her Majesty failed?"
Charlotte sighed slightly:
"Of course."
"I can roughly guess what She attempted to create, but unfortunately... with Her power, She could only produce these fragile semi-finished products."
"Her failure in Ascension was probably due to this reason as well."
After speaking, she gently closed her palm, and the floating ethereal orbs of light instantly converged, reforming into the Blood Secret Book.
After a soft sigh, Charlotte said:
"Margo, I need to meditate for a few days. During this time... unless it's something urgent, do not disturb me."
"The proclamation three days later will proceed according to your own plan. Though I will not appear, I will still keep a close eye on everything."
"If there is nothing else, you... may leave now."
...
After reporting the losses of the Holy Land, Great Prophet Margo departed.
The castle's doors closed, the crimson radiance spread, and Charlotte, using the Blood Divine Power, opened a Magic Barrier to isolate the inside from the outside.
Then, she looked at the Blood Secret Book in her hands again, or rather... the "Blood Holy Scripture" imitated by the Crimson Queen.
Yes, the imitated "Blood Holy Scripture."
After initially examining this "Blood Secret Book" and analyzing its composition, Charlotte was quite certain that this book was aimed at replicating the "Blood Holy Scripture."
Unfortunately, it seems there were also mishaps during its refinement, as apart from the appearance being similar, this "Blood Secret Book" did not remotely bear the power of the "Blood Holy Scripture."
No, it could not be said to have no similarities.
In Charlotte's perception, the Divine Power and Laws of this "Blood Secret Book" were approaching those of the Blood Holy Scripture; at least... the moment she obtained it, she could feel the "desire" of the Blood Holy Scripture.
