Hello, is this a letter addressed to Demon Fortress?

Lin Gui's eyes narrowed slightly.

Fragments of a divine artifact?

It's not magic, not a potion, but... like equipment fragments in a game?

The synthesized object turned out to be a divine artifact.

Lin Gui glanced at the semi-divine artifact, the Wind Whisperer's Staff, in his storage space.

Although it is a semi-divine artifact.

But they're not even worthy of carrying the shoes of a true masterpiece.

The origin of each artifact is now impossible to verify.

However, it is certain that divine artifacts cannot be forged.

Even at the peak of craftsmanship during the Golden Age, it was impossible to replicate the power of the divine artifact.

The Ten Divine Weapons remain the Ten Divine Weapons to this day.

Each of these divine artifacts unleashes terrifying effects in its respective domain, comparable to those achieved through forbidden incantations.

For example, the stealth artifact that the Brotherhood lost.

Even if you are just an ordinary person, you can achieve top-level stealth without chanting, which even epic players cannot do.

Another example is the Parliament's "Omniscient Compass".

It can detect the rank and strength of all living beings within its detection range.

Parliament's approval of it always allows them to sense the Kuroshio's birth several days in advance.

And this is just one of its many powerful features.

Another example is the Hall of Heroes of the Church of Light.

Lin Gui had once seen its power in Eve.

It can make a lower-level extraordinary person instantly unleash legendary power.

Doesn't it sound as terrifying as Jesse's direct ascent to the epic rank?

But the most terrifying thing about Valhalla is that it can connect to more than one object.

In other words, it can instantly elevate the status of many people who connect to it by a large margin.

Dozens of extraordinary individuals instantly transformed into legends.

This is devastating for the rise of a power.

The power of divine artifacts is indeed so strong and terrifying.

There isn't a single artifact that isn't powerful enough to arouse greed even among the strongest experts.

........

.......

Aside from the dwarves' [Heart of Mount Everest].

In addition, there's the [Soul-Slaying Blade], which inexplicably appeared outside of the Ten Divine Weapons.

Lin Gui had never heard of any other divine artifacts.

Could it be that the system will steal an existing artifact for him?

He couldn't help but ask the system in his mind:

"If I collect all the fragments, what kind of divine artifact will I eventually obtain?"

The system remained silent for a few seconds.

Then, the mechanical voice sounded.

[It will create corresponding artifacts based on the host's characteristics and the materials available.]

Lin Gui was completely baffled.

The characteristics are easy to understand; they're tailor-made.

But... what the hell is this about making something based on the materials you have?

It is common knowledge that divine artifacts cannot be forged.

Even if I could forge it, I don't have any top-tier materials like the Heart of a Dragon or a Branch of the World Tree.

Lin Gui wanted to ask more questions.

The system has started to play dead again.

No matter how much he called out in his heart, there was no response.

Helpless, Lin Gui had no choice but to give up.

He glanced at the people holding the letters, then at the task panel in his mind.

The acceptance rate exceeded one percent.

In other words, even if only a few dozen letters are delivered, he can still obtain fragments of the divine artifact.

but.......

Lin Gui believes that in the end, no one may receive a single letter.

As long as the person signing for the package is in a remote area.

In her mind, Shadow Blade Lin's displeased voice echoed.

"Do you know what you're doing?"

Her tone was clearly angry.

"Don't make me look down on you."

"You have to take the risks for your actions, that's your business."

"But I can't let the girl you went through so much trouble to rescue take the risks for you."

Lin Gui turned to look at Elvia.

Elvia stood beside him, hesitant to speak.

The look in his eyes as he looked at Lin Gui was also filled with confusion.

She opened her mouth, as if to say something.

Surprisingly, she didn't say anything to stop her.

She even looked past Lin Gui and at the group of people.

Some people in the crowd stiffened slightly when they met her gaze.

Then, they lowered their heads, not daring to meet her gaze.

Lin Gui noticed that the people were all dressed differently.

There were chefs wearing aprons.

There were farmers whose hands were still covered in mud.

There were elderly people wearing old robes who looked like grassroots administrators.

There were also a few ordinary women, holding their children and looking down.

Elvia's gaze swept over them.

Then, she sighed softly.

Those people were her intelligence agents spread throughout the entire Carter capital.

In times of chaos, they should have been her eyes and ears.

But in the end, it was precisely them who sold her out.

If it weren't for the help of others, she would have been caught long ago.

The people who truly helped her were the refugees she usually looked down upon.

It was originally just a charity event to make a show of Lin Gui.

But this became the opportunity for these people to help her.

They hid her in a place she could never have imagined.

Even Warren couldn't find her.

But in the end, that terrible woman still found out.

As for why Elvia suddenly had a brain fart and gave away all her wealth to provide welfare to the homeless?

It was simply because she wanted Lin Gui to return to the ruins of Carter's capital and search for his traces in the future.

Her good deeds can be seen in the newspapers that she promotes extensively.

Then he would feel guilty for the rest of his life for not coming to save her.

Even if I die, I can still annoy the other person for the rest of their life.

But who would have thought that this bastard would actually brave the black tide to save him?

Even now, Elvia is still in a daze.

You've taken such a huge risk to save me, what more could I ask for?

Elvia, who was always afraid of death, did not object.

She looked at Lin Gui and said:

"Let's hurry up."

Her voice was very soft.

"I don't want to become food for the devil."

She also really wanted to help these poor people, after all, they had helped her before.

Lin Gui looked at her and nodded.

Then, he said to Shadowblade Lin in his mind:

"Don't worry, if the situation worsens, I'll hand her over to Carlyle."

"They must have a way to leave or escape the disaster."

"I think Lady Shadowblade Rin has already guessed it, hasn't she?"

Shadow Blade Lin remained silent.

Lin Gui continued:

"Furthermore, I also have a backup plan that can allow us to avoid this Kuroshio Current."

He paused, a hint of a smile in his voice.

"That was originally meant to be used against you, Lady Shadow Blade Lin, who kidnapped me and wanted to kill me."

Shadow Blade Lin was stunned.

The fact that the powerful woman had a way to evade the Black Tide was enough to astonish her.

It seems this weak mage has other methods?

When did the Black Tide, which once instilled fear in the Alliance and forced the Elves to relocate their capital three times, become so lacking in prestige?

"What method is it?"

Shadow Blade Lin asked.

Lin Gui smiled faintly:

"That's my personal secret."

Moreover, if possible, Lin Gui would not want to use that method.

Its location is very close to the radiation range of the Kuroshio Current.

If Lin Gui wants to use it, he might have to go to the Withered Rift.

Therefore, he will not use it unless absolutely necessary.

In fact, Lin Gui not only had his own ways of escaping.

He also roughly guessed how Katalia and Carrey would avoid the Black Tide.

His gaze silently shifted to the ground.

feet.

underground.

No wonder he searched the entire capital of Carter's city but couldn't find Carteria's tomb.

It turns out... it was because it was buried at a depth far beyond my imagination.

All of these exceeded the range of a demigod's perception.

A sharp gaze suddenly fell upon them.

Lin Gui quickly raised his eyes.

He met Carrey's slightly narrowed eyes.

Carlyle looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze.

Lin Gui immediately interrupted:

"Time is of the essence."

"The number of people delivering the mail may be very large."

"It might be necessary for Your Excellency to trouble you to send more people to conduct the review."

Carlyle squinted and stared at him for several seconds.

Then, he slowly began to speak:

"Kid, don't go too deep."

"I wanted to kill that girl because she might see something she shouldn't have."
