“I think Oronis might not be so resistant to us.” Dan Heng looked at Yan Huan.

"Let's do as it says and pass its test."

"If we can have one less enemy, that would be a good thing."

“Okay.” Yan Huan immediately sheathed her greatsword and sat down on the spot.

"Then I'll leave it to you. Go ahead."

"Huh?" Bai E was a little confused.

"What do you mean 'huh'? Did I bring you here for a vacation? You're the one, get on top!"

Yan Huan kicked Bai E onto the scales.

Chapter 1222 You are stalling for time

Seeing that Bai E had stepped onto the platform, Dan Heng also searched for a solution near the bottom of the scales.

On the high platform, Xia Die slowly squatted down, her expression slightly unnatural.

"What's wrong with you?" Yan Huan asked, looking at Xia Die's condition.

"I...I'm fine," Xia Die replied, hugging her knees and looking up.

“But… Oronis’s pain resonates with mine.”

"I see." Yan Huan said thoughtfully.

In other words, Oronis is now in great pain because of the miracle.

At first, Yan Huan thought that using the miracles of the Titans was a way for the Titans to divert their power to benefit believers.

But judging from Oronis's reaction, it does seem to have a hint of enslavement.

"It's definitely easier to just drill right in, isn't it? Making it hurt now hurts you too, it's not good for anyone..."

Seeing Yan Huan get up and try to continue chiseling at the wall, Xia Die quickly spoke up to stop her.

"Please... wait a moment."

"If we can resolve this in a way that it approves of, we can avoid a fight..."

"Let them fight then." Yan Huan said indifferently.

"Didn't the prophecy say that all twelve sparks would eventually fall into the hands of humankind? It's bound to happen sooner or later."

“I understand what you mean… but we are still the people of Onphalus.” Xia Die’s eyes flickered.

"Therefore, it is appropriate to maintain respect for the Titans, even if the relationship is delicate now."

Not far away, Bai E jumped on the higher end of the scale and found that the scale did not move at all.

He stood at the edge and shouted to Dan Heng below:

"This scale must be used to put something on it. Brother Danheng, why don't you go and look around?"

"Can't we attack directly?" Dan Heng asked, looking up.

Using the impact of an attack to knock down the higher end of the scale is also a way to change the balance.

"That would only change things for a moment," Bai E cautioned.

“Brother Danheng, look over there in that corner there’s a Hand of Zagres. Perhaps we can use it to move heavy objects.”

"Is that so? Then you can come down and operate it."

"Me? But I'm far away..."

"Since you don't intend to attack Libra, standing on it won't help."

"Haha...that makes sense." Bai E thought it made sense, so he quickly jumped down.

On the high platform next to them, Yan Huan took out a deck of cards from her pocket.

"How about we try fishing with a kitten?"

"I can't..." Xia Die shook her head.

“You’ve forgotten that your world is different.” Yan Huan put the playing cards away again.

Solving puzzles requires time, and with Dan Heng around, it shouldn't be too difficult.

Waiting is the most agonizing part.

"Would you like something to eat?"

Yan Huan then took out a strawberry cake, saying, "This is much tastier than bread."

"No..."

"How about we play a game of Three Kingdoms Kill? I have some cards."

"Won't……"

"Want to try your luck with Imperial Jade? If you lose, you won't lose money."

"I'm so sorry..."

"Yeah, it's true, the two of us can't really have fun together."

The two sat on the high platform, silently watching Dan Heng and Bai E busy themselves below.

"Is this any good? Why don't we just charge in?" Yan Huan shouted to the two below.

"We're almost there!" Bai E looked up and replied, "Trust in our wisdom!"

"..."

Yan Huan silently looked at the Libra scale; both ends were still empty, and it looked far from perfect.

"Your Excellency Yan Huan... there is actually a question I don't understand..."

Xia Die raised her head slightly and asked Yan Huan:

"Why are you willing to risk your lives for a strange world... when it has nothing to do with you..."

"It's too late to say all this now."

Yan Huan squatted down and picked up a pebble.

"Didn't they say that the heavens are going to be attacked by Aegler? Even if we want to run away, we have to kill Titan to ensure our safety."

"Besides, it's not like we're risking our lives right now."

Yan Huan tossed the pebble down and continued:

"You've captured so many of these Titans, your success rate is pretty high, isn't it?"

"The enemies we've faced before were far more exciting than this..."

Putting Nicardi aside, the group is now looking for Euronis, and they've been crying out in pain even before they've seen it...

These Titans are more like elite monsters than gods.

Fighting them is by no means a life-or-death struggle.

"Then... assuming you leave Onpharos... you won't be punished by Aegler's divine retribution?"

"Will you continue to help us like this?"

"I think so," Yan Huan replied without hesitation.

“When we nameless people saved the world before, we also had a way out.”

"Perhaps this is the end of the world for you, but for us, it is just another one of the 'ends' we've experienced."

No matter how difficult the situation, there is always a way.

"Besides... I don't think Onpharos has reached that point yet."

Compared to Ohma, the situation in Beloborg was far worse.

Even without the Nameless Guest, the Golden Bloodline is still a force to be reckoned with.

Moreover, the priests could use the Titans' divine power to force them to do certain things.

The situation is already quite good.

"What if... we encounter an invincible enemy next?" Xia Die asked again.

"Impossible, I don't believe it." Yan Huan remained noncommittal.

"I've been passively stacking up for so long, if I still fail at this, then it wouldn't be unjust for Onpharos to be destroyed."

"What are you saying, sir..." Xia Die asked, puzzled.

"nothing."

Yan Huan looked down.

Bai E was standing in front of the mechanism, manipulating a giant hand to grab the large ball like it was a building block.

The giant hand slowly moved onto the balance scale and placed the ball on one end.

Then it moved to the other side, picked up a triangular pyramid block, and placed it on the balance scale as well.

At this point, the two ends of the scale are in balance.

"Hey, all done!"

Bai E took two steps back, admiring his perfect masterpiece, and said smugly:

"Lady Eulonis! We have completed your challenge. May we pass now?"

With that shout, the scales immediately tipped back down.

The Titans' whispers echoed again in the darkness.

Xia Die hesitated for a moment before translating:

"You are not allowed... we do not acknowledge... you are not allowed to continue."

"?" Bai E looked completely bewildered.
