Chapter 64: Four Divine Artifacts! Is Long Xiao Dead or Alive?! (15,000 Words)



"Could it be...calculated wrongly?" Ji Si hesitantly said.

"Are you suggesting there was a mistake from the beginning?" another Fate Officer asked.

"Yes." Ji Si nodded.

A mistake from the beginning would mean that Great Zhou didn't actually obtain two Divine Artifacts.

"How do we interpret the result of the deduction?" King Heavenly Destiny asked.

"It's possible Zhao Xing passed by the location of the Divine Artifacts, very closely." Someone came up with a reasonable explanation. "Historically, similar situations have occurred; someone once passed by a Divine Artifact location, and the Fate Officer deduced at the Heavenly Mechanism Pillar and received a similar response."

"However, afterward it was discovered that the person didn't obtain the Divine Artifact until the next group entered the location where the person had been, and the Divine Artifact was found."

King Heavenly Destiny nodded as well, from his heart, he was willing to accept that Zhao Xing had acquired the Divine Artifacts. But reason told him it was impossible.

The Dragon Court Ancient Land is dangerous, Divine Artifacts aren't easily picked up; they are either in the Forbidden Land or have complex mechanisms or life guardians.

Those who could pick up by luck have long taken them all, after all, the Second Grade Heavenly Fortune Realm, who's not of high-grade Qi Fortune?

Actually, the Fate Officers were not wrong in thinking this; the Divine Artifacts Zhao Xing obtained did have a Dragon King guarding them.

He didn't pick them up, but exchanged for them.

"Take ten thousand steps back, it's still good news." Ji Si smiled. "At least two Divine Artifacts are related to Zhao Xing."

"As long as we inquire about the places he experienced, we are very likely to obtain two Divine Artifacts."

"Correct." The other two Fate Officers agreed.

"Should we activate the contingency plan?" someone asked.

The contingency plan is to immediately dispatch a First-class strong individual to enter the Dragon Court, find Zhao Xing, and locate the Divine Artifacts.

At this stage, Dragon Court allows entry but not exit, and the spots are limited. However, Great Zhou didn't send everyone in at the beginning; the contingency plan reserved some spots, not many, mainly to deal with unexpected situations.

Now qualifies as an 'unexpected situation'.

King Heavenly Destiny pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Then send one person."

Sending one person is enough, as they can organize Great Zhou's experts inside.

.

No doubt, a Fate Officer is quite suitable.

The reason why a Fate Officer wasn't sent in at the beginning was mainly to use the Creation Plate and the Heavenly Mechanism Hall outside for deduction.

A single Fate Officer inside without a Divine Artifact won't be effective.

You can't calculate yourself, and outsiders can't be figured out.

With a Divine Artifact? That'd be too risky.

If a Fate-type Divine Artifact is lost inside the Dragon Court, the loss would be too great.

"Since it involves two Divine Artifacts, let me go." Ji Si said, "Tian Yan, you still need to oversee the Heavenly Mechanism Hall."

"Alright." King Heavenly Destiny nodded, "Come with me."

The remaining two Fate Officers returned to their original positions, while Ji Si followed King Heavenly Destiny to another secret room.

There was nothing else, mainly to explain Zhao Xing's importance.

"What? He actually..." Ji Si was shocked after reading the confidential file. "I never thought that after just twenty years in seclusion, our dynasty has birthed such a genius. Truly blessed by Heavenly Destiny, a fortune for Great Zhou!"

"Si, once you enter, be very careful. Always remember that protecting Zhao Xing is the top priority; the Divine Artifacts can be discarded, Zhao Xing must not die." King Heavenly Destiny warned.

"I understand." Ji Si nodded.

The Treasure-level Divine Artifacts are also man-made, and Great Zhou's super-sized Ninth-tier Divine Weapons aren't weak compared to Treasure-level Divine Artifacts.

Uncommon treasures, while rare in the world, are not nonexistent.

Unparalleled Treasures are those that can't be created in the current era and are irreplaceable.

Of course...in terms of value, Zhao Xing can also be compared to Unparalleled Treasures.

Throughout history, there's only been one Zhao Xing who has elevated the Derivation God Decision to new heights.

If Zhao Xing were to penetrate the Yanshen Stele, it would be tantamount to recreating a soul-type Ultimate Skill!

The skill could be passed to billions of people, lasting for thousands of generations!

Ji Si finished reading the document, which had Emperor Jing's seal and personal approval, definitely considering the human form as Unparalleled Treasures.

"Brother, I'm departing." Ji Si said with seriousness.

"Hmm." King Heavenly Destiny replied, "Be very careful."

They shouldn't have used the reserved slots so early, but with the appearance of two Divine Artifacts and Zhao Xing's involvement, they're utilizing it properly.

...

Heaven and Earth Dragon Gate, on the ocean.

A First-class Mutant Beast, Earthworm Snake, coils, its massive shadow covering the battleships below.

In a snake-shaped palace formed by several connected warships.

A middle-aged man in Chinese Clothing with angled eyes and a pointed head sat on the throne, listening to the Fate Officer's report.

Like the Southern Barbarians, Great Snake Country also learned from Great Zhou, designating officials responsible for deduction as Fate Officers.

"Xiu Cheng, two Divine Artifacts have appeared in the Dragon Court Ancient Land." The Fate Officer reported to the throne.

Xiu Cheng is the Great Snake Country Lord's younger brother, Taixiu God Monarch's sibling.

His status in Great Snake Country is like Prince Liang's status in Great Zhou in past years.

He's also the leader of this expedition as a First-class strong individual, bringing a Treasure-level Divine Artifact and the national treasure Earthworm Snake.

"Is there more specific news?" Xiu Cheng asked.

"No, it can't be calculated." The Fate Officer shook his head.

King Heavenly Destiny and the others can get Zhao Xing's name mainly because Zhao Xing is Great Zhou's own.

Calculating own people is naturally easier.

Outsiders won't work, across the Heaven and Earth Dragon Gate, it's already remarkable they know Divine Artifacts have emerged.

Like some top-level sects, they wouldn't know even this, only Divine Sect might know.

"We can't figure out the name or location, seems it's not fate with our country." Xiu Cheng shook his head.

Not being able to calculate more information proves that it doesn't have much connection to Great Snake Country.

Of course, it's not necessarily related to other forces; the Southern Barbarians or Great Zhou might not have a connection either.
