Chapter 699 The Smelting City (Part 2)
Chapter 699 The City of Smelting (Central)
In the Holy Ruins, if power is calculated, all the people on the third star continent are definitely the weakest. Anyone with any star in the second star can be the king of the third star ring, but if it is to be in terms of prosperity, there is an exception to the third star ring, and this exception is the thirteenth star.
There are fourteen stars in the third ring, of which thirteen rotate at a constant speed around the core of the Saint Ruins in a certain arrangement sequence and trajectory. No matter how fast they walk, their trajectory is always a circle of peers. Only the thirteenth star walks at a speed that is sometimes fast and sometimes slow, and it shows a wavy trajectory, with no regularity. However, no matter how uneven the thirteenth star walks, it will walk to the same position of the third ring every five hundred and seven days, that is, the Holy Ruins year, it will walk to the same position of the third ring. At this position, the pure blood star of the second ring, the temple star of the first ring, and the total god altar of the core of the Saint Ruins appear in a straight line. Although such coincidental arrangement will not bring any essential changes to the Thirteenth star, its symbolic significance adds a special status to the Thirteenth star, making it the center of the junction of the Holy Ruins.
All the third-ring gods who ignite the divine fire and enter the upper ring must stay at the Thirteen Star for two years before reaching a higher position, learn etiquette, learn how to use their divine power, learn to adapt to a new identity, and wait for the clergy given by the above. However, the clergy of the upper ring is not infinite after all. When there is a vacancy, most clergy will first arrange members of each god family, and the rest will be arranged for the third-ring gods waiting for by the Thirteen Stars. Only a few particularly outstanding third-ring gods can be given priority to the upper ring. There are many people who have been waiting for the Thirteen Stars for a hundred years but still cannot enter the upper ring.
Just as the lower rings need to wait for arrangements at the Thirteen Stars to enter the upper ring, all the gods who come down from the upper ring, whether they are doing things or being demoted, must stay at the Thirteen Stars for one or two years to adapt to the special environment of the Third Stars, as the first stop to enter the fading of the God and the Ordinary. Most of them will be arranged quickly, either acting as city lords and star lords among the stars of the Third Star Ring, or finding ways to stay at the Thirteen Stars to find the opportunity to return to the upper ring, because they know very well that unless they have a very strong background, once they take up their posts in the Third Star Ring, it will be difficult for them to return to the upper ring.
A large number of gods that ignited the divine fire gathered here, making Thirteen Stars the stars with the largest number of gods in the entire Holy Ruins, and almost more than 70% of the lower-level gods gathered here. It is precisely because of these gods that the Thirteen Stars have become extremely prosperous. The largest divine magic weapon production city in the Holy Ruins is here, the largest commercial trading city in the Holy Ruins is also here, and the largest entertainment city in the Holy Ruins is one of the main reasons why Thirteen Stars attract the upper-level star ring gods.
However, behind this extraordinary prosperity, there is endless chaos and depravity. Most of the gods living here are desperate gods. They have been waiting for dozens and hundreds of years and cannot see any future or hope. Under this pessimistic mood, most of the gods have fallen. They use various **s like mortals, making this star continent full of things that are far darker and more bloody than other star continents. Some people once said that all the most evil gods in the Holy Ruins gathered at the Thirteen Stars. They control everything about the Thirteen Stars, absorb the anger of the Desperate God here, and serve as their source of their own power. Therefore, the Thirteen Stars in the third ring are also called the Fallen Evil Star.
Xu Changqing, who had been staying in the Holy Ruins for a while, also heard of the name of the Fallen Evil Star, but he had never come to see it for various reasons. It was a coincidence that he would choose Thirteen Stars this time. When he killed the old god, Thirteen Stars happened to be near the eighth Star. Only then did he remember that the people in this star were extremely complicated and chaotic, which was just right for someone like him to hide, so he entered the star without hesitation.
After entering Thirteen Stars, Xu Changqing did not choose to go to the Pure Land City, which is the most famous and attractive to the upper-level star-ring gods. Instead, he entered the Smelting City, which is famous for forging magical instruments and various luxury goods of gods. Outside the city, he seized a Divine Fire of the Divine Assistant who served as the Mine Assistant, and changed into the appearance of this person, mixed into the Smelting City, and soon merged into more than 100,000 Divine Assistant.
There are two meanings in the Holy Ruins God’s Assistant. The first is the attendant of the formal gods, which is only available in the first ring and the core of the Holy Ruins. They can be other gods or ordinary mortals. The second meaning refers to all the third ring gods who have not officially entered the upper ring on the thirteen stars and receive the divine fire inheritance mark.
The turbid orcs, pure blood people and mixed-seeded people in the Holy Ruins can only be regarded as opening the source of power, which is equivalent to the foundation building of the Taoist Dharma in the Three Realms of Kunlun, the first meditation of Buddhism, the demonic path, and the demonic path to open the spirit. Just to reach this point, it cannot be considered a real god, but can only be regarded as a false god. Only these false gods, the divine fire of the divine spirits, have left the divine inheritance mark that matches it, and have mastered how to fundamentally use their own divine power and mastered the level of the divine fire.
The method is that they are real gods at this time. Among the thirteen stars, the real gods are only one or two, and the rest are all false gods. They can only master some skills of using divine power through their own exploration. Unless people with great perseverance and wisdom can open the inheritance mark in the divine fire of the gods on their own. However, such talents have generally been selected into the upper rings and cannot stay in the thirteen stars again.
The Smelting City is mainly controlled by three god families, which are responsible for the creation of magical instruments, luxury goods of gods and various types of raw ore. Like other families in charge of other cities, all of these three families were demoted in the upper rings, and most of them were powerful god families in the upper rings behind them.
Xu Changqing disguised the Mine-seeking God Assistant is the God Assistant under the Orop family. This family mainly operates various special spiritual ores. There are seven families like it that are responsible for collecting raw ores, but none of them can compare with him, and the forces behind those families cannot be compared with it, because behind the Orop family is Opalodi, the artifact forging family among the four major gods of the Holy Ruins.
These families collecting raw ore are not collected from various star continents. Although there are some mineral veins on the star continent, these mineral veins are not enough for a divine family to get stuck in the teeth, and these mineral veins are often connected to the spiritual veins on the continent. Because the spiritual veins of the star continent in the Saint Ruins are incomplete and the Heavenly Way of the Saint Ruins are incomplete, the spiritual veins cannot regenerate like the Kunlun Realm. Therefore, if it is damaged, it will inevitably damage the existence of the Star Continent itself. For this, the Holy Ruins are strictly prohibited from mining these spiritual ores.
Since there is no spiritual ore to be mined inside the Holy Ruins, the gods of the Holy Ruins placed the spiritual ore mining outside the Holy Ruins, which is the chaotic world at the edge of the Holy Ruins. This place is between the Holy Ruins and the Chaos Void, and is filled with various chaotic spiritual energy and the chaotic aura scraped from the chaotic void, which is somewhat similar to the vain realm of nothingness at the edge of the Kunlun Three Realms.
The Opalody family is known for forging and wisdom. The wise men in their family have created a magical array that can attract the divine domain fragments that are free from the chaotic void. After this magic array appeared, the Opalody family joined forces with various forging families in the Holy Ruins to install this magic array densely in the chaotic world at the edge of the Holy Ruins, attracting a large number of divine domain fragments that are free from the chaotic void, forming a mining area with a thickness of thousands of miles and covering the outer chaotic world of the entire Holy Ruins. For the entire Holy Ruins, such a mining area also has great benefits. The residual power of the divine domain fragments in the mining area forms a chaotic protective light shield. It can protect the fragile protective sky of the Holy Ruins like armor from being damaged by the continuous chaotic winds of the outside world, which is considered to be two birds with one stone.
The entire mining area belongs to the Opalody family in name, but in fact, only one-fifth of the mining area directly controlled by the Opalody family. Other mining areas are divided into pieces according to the size and strength of each family. However, each family needs to pay a certain amount of income to the Opalody family in these mining areas to show respect for the creators of the mining area.
Although the mining area is in a chaotic world where no life can exist, it does not mean that there is no danger there. After the mining area appeared, a large number of semi-slaved orcs such as the Holy Ruins, most of the mixed races fled to the mining area to live in seclusion. After thousands of years of evolution, they adapted to the harsh environment there and formed a unique race of gods and formed their own chaos gods. They ignited the divine fire on their own, and formed their own divine inheritance mark through their own understanding. Because of their own experiences and their jealousy of the Holy Ruins, they extremely hated the Holy Ruins people. However, for the Holy Ruins, the strength of these people is really not enough to pose a threat, so they just let them exist and treat them as the training ground for the Holy Ruins Divine Army.
Although these special gods living in mining areas do not have any threat to the upper real gods of the Holy Ruins, they are extremely dangerous for the divine servants who have no inheritance mark. Therefore, various professions have emerged in the third star ring and various star continents. Taking the Mine servants is one of them.
Speaking of which, what it takes to take the Mine Gods is very simple, that is, to enter the mining area and retrieve the mined ore back to the holy ruins, but not simply, in this process, they have to face a large number of attacks from the Chaos Gods. Although there are a large number of guardian gods in the mining area, those are just guardians of mining gods, and most of them are too busy to take care of themselves, so naturally they cannot give them any help. Among all the professions related to the mining area, taking the Mine Gods is one of the most numerous professions and one of the most casualties. However, even so, there are still a large number of divine servants willing to join in, because this profession is one of the few professions with the lowest requirements for employment and can obtain the divine inheritance mark. As long as you become the Mine Gods Assistant, you can get two divine inheritance marks that use divine power. Even as the years of employment increase, taking the Mine Gods Assistant can obtain a more precious inheritance mark that improves the level of divine fire.
